Globalization, the IMF and the Future
The Jamaican economy is heavily dependent on services, which now account for 70% of GDP. The country continues to derive most of its foreign exchange from tourism, remittances, and bauxite/alumina.
The global economic slowdown, particularly after the terrorist attacks in the US on 11 September 2002, stunted economic growth; the economy rebounded moderately in 2003, with one of the best tourist seasons on record. But the economy faces serious long-term problems: high interest rates; increased foreign competition; a pressured, sometimes sliding, exchange rate; a sizable merchandise trade deficit; large-scale unemployment; and a growing internal debt, the result of government bailouts to ailing sectors of the economy.
The ratio of debt to GDP is close to 150%. Inflation, previously a bright spot, is expected to remain in the double digits. Depressed economic conditions have led to increased civil unrest, including gang violence fueled by the drug trade. In 2004, the government faces the difficult prospect of having to achieve fiscal discipline in order to maintain debt payments while simultaneously attacking a serious and growing crime problem that is hampering economic growth.

Globalization: Its Effects in Jamaica
Jack Harper
Green Corner, May 2003
Jamaica! The name brings images of tropical beaches, palm trees, beautiful ebony people, Rastafarians, and the music of Bob Marley. But all is not well on this 146 mile long mountainous island of two and a half million, mostly descendants of African slaves, south of Cuba in the Caribbean.
Farming and industry have been in crisis. The jobless have been leaving the countryside for Kingston and other urban areas. Crime and the drug trade have led to frequent police killings. Political violence and rioting has been seen in recent years. Responsible in part for this unrest and turmoil is globalization, ensnaring the country in enormous debt arranged by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, and other international lending agencies at high interest rates. The debt now at $4.5 billion requires that 52 cents of every dollar earned goes for interest payments. Jamaica has already paid back 17 times the amount of money originally borrowed. Structural adjustments imposed by the IMF have driven up interest rates to industry and farmers such that they can no longer compete with the flood of subsidized or "dumped" foreign imports. These policies have driven down wages and forced the government to cut back funding for education, health care, and agricultural programs which benefit the impoverished.
On our Global Exchange study tour in March, designed and led by Hanna Appel, we interviewed farmers, businesspeople, police, human rights advocates, community development leaders, and ordinary Jamaicans to take the pulse of a country in trouble. We visited potato farmer Jerry Harrison who spoke of the difficulty of getting a farm load even at 22% interest for Spring planting. Jamaica was self sufficient in potatoes in 1982, but has since been undercut by foreign imports.
We drove to Winston Wright's now derelict banana plantation which cannot compete with cheaper bananas from Central America. Protection of the Jamaican banana crop by the European Union will cease by 2005 leaving the industry open to foreign competition. Small banana farmers have declined from 45,000 to 5000 in recent years.
We were guests of Alex and Dorothy Twyman at their 130 acre coffee plantation in the mountains of central Jamaica. The Twyman's Old Tavern Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee sells for $36 per pound to gourmands, fetching a reasonable profit. Unfortunately, theirs is the only coffee plantation in Jamaica allowed to process and market coffee. Other small growers are forced to sell the raw beans at low profit to a central processing facility, being restricted by the Jamaican government in order to maintain quality. One coffee worker we talked with made $6 per day, but a good picker during harvest time can make as much as $25 a day.
The dairy industry is in steep decline due to imports of highly subsidized foreign powdered milk. Beef and onions have met a similar fate. The poultry industry has been severely hurt by the importation of low-grade chicken parts. Sugar and bauxite (aluminum ore) have also been hit.
Tourism although nervously watching world events is the mainstay industry of Jamaica employing one of ten Jamaicans. Global tourism, however, exacts a price on Jamaica, environmentally and socially. Large all-inclusive tourist facilities at Montego Bay provide the tourist with hotel, food and entertainment. These tourists seldom come in contact with Jamaican life, being cloistered in compounds, eating food imported from abroad. Jamaicans typically work as maids and kitchen help, even as prostitutes in the tourist industry. Sewage from these facilities often empties into the ocean which along with siltation, pesticides, over-fishing, and physical destruction including anchors from cruise ships destroy coral reefs and marine life. Only a small percentage of Jamaica's original coral reefs remain.
Other environmental costs of globalization include the erosion of steep slopes caused by coffee growers and agricultural chemical runoff into surrounding waters which kills marine life and threatens the few remaining manatees by killing sea grasses. Fisherman must go far offshore to outlying Morant and Pedro banks to find fish for local markets. The rapid deforestation at 5% per year of Jamaica's remaining 5% of its original forest threatens its two endemic Amazona parrot species, the Black-billed Parrot and the Yellow-billed Parrot .
These glimpses into the Jamaican experience represent some of the effects of economic globalization. Aside from money and trade, globalization affects Jamaicans in terms of the increasing international flow of ideas, disease, plants and animals, people, technology, and culture. Americanization, drug traffic, and the imposition of multinational corporations and nations further complicate and destabilize Jamaican life. Emigration has been a safety valve for the island. Now, more Jamaicans live outside the country than within, sending yearly remittances of $1.3 B back to families. The poor economic prospects signaled by low investment levels and stagnant growth, causing severe unemployment and low wages, leading to social unrest, has spurred grassroots community development organizations to be formed.
We visited with 'Jamaicans for Justice' representative, Susan Goffe, who is promoting police accountability through legislative lobbying. Crime rates have risen since colonization to two police killings per week which breeds new violence. The riots and killings of recent years associated with political party rivalry has abated.
Kenneth Wilson told us about his August Town sports and community development group in an impoverished suburb of Kingston which promotes competitive sports for young people in rival communities, calming violence and improving youth outlook. Sergeant West at the August Town sub-precinct police station confirmed that community policing had noticeably improved police relations.
At Treasure Beach we met with BREDA, a non-profit community group established by Jason Henzell and Peace Corps volunteer Aaron Laufer, to provide education, sports, cultural heritage, and environmental awareness in the community of 3000. By their efforts they have setup a safe house for battered women at which they learn to read and make crafts to be sold for their projects. BREDA has sponsored visiting American physicians to donate their time to teach first response medical techniques.
Despite urban pockets of impoverishment, high levels of unemployment, and low wages, Jaimaicans are a resilient and proud people, taking the future in their own hands with local community groups. Reggae music is heard throughout this luxuriant tropical island and we sometimes heard workers break out in song.
IMF Jamaica Profile:
On August 7, 2002, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded the Article IV consultation with Jamaica.
Following the financial crisis in 1995/96, the Jamaican government adopted stabilization policies aimed at reducing inflation through a broadly stable nominal exchange rate. While the government has succeeded in bringing inflation down (the inflation has been kept in single digits since 1997/98), tight monetary policy, coupled with high fiscal deficits, led to high real interest rates and an erosion in competitiveness. The public sector debt increased sharply during the period to over 130 percent of GDP, reflecting in part the costs of the financial sector rescue. Economic recovery has been slow. In June 2000,the Jamaican authorities undertook a Staff- Monitored Program (SMP) for FY 2000/01-2001/02 designed to tackle the heavy public sector burden and restore economic growth.
Over the past fiscal year (2001/02), Jamaica 's economy was hit by a series of shocks including the outbreak of violence in July, the impact of the terrorist attacks of September 11 on tourism, and heavy floods in late November. The government responded to these shocks through steps to cushion the impact on the economy. However, partly as a result, public finances worsened significantly and the reduction in the public sector debt was much less than anticipated. Jamaica has again been hit by heavy flooding in May 2002.
After growing strongly in the first half of the fiscal year (at estimated 3% annual rate), the economy grew by about 1% in FY 2001/02 following the shocks. Inflation was around 7.5%, and the real exchange rate appreciated by 4%. Despite a weaker external current account, Net International Reserves increased by about US$650 million boosted by strong remittances and proceeds from international bond issues. Domestic interest rates generally trended downwards, although with a hiccup in the third quarter of the fiscal year. Public finances deteriorated with revenues declining sharply, reflecting weaker economic activities.
Expenditures for tourist promotion, flood relief, and wages-resulting from earlier than expected wage settlements-were higher but offset by savings elsewhere. The cash government budget deficit increased to 5.7 percent of GDP relative to the revised SMP target of 4.1 percent of GDP, and the central government primary surplus contracted by nearly 3 percentage points of GDP to 8 percent of GDP. Public debt declined modestly to 129 percent of GDP.
On structural reforms, the government has succeeded in divesting intervened financial institutions through the Financial Sector Adjustment Company (FINSAC) and has restored the liquidity and the solvency of the financial system; FINSAC will be wound up by October 2002. Steps have been taken to strengthen further the regulatory framework for the financial sector and supervisory capacity of the regulatory authority.
To build on the progress achieved so far, the government has requested a new SMP for FY 2002/03.The objectives of the program are to consolidate the gains in macroeconomic stabilization and adjustment achieved to date and to lay the foundations for sustainable, strong economic growth that would further reduce poverty. The authorities ' program for FY 2002/03 includes a renewed fiscal effort to reverse fiscal slippages in 2001/02 and maintaining single digit inflation through tight monetary policy. The budget targets a deficit of 4.4% of GDP, consistent with close to 2.5 percentage points of GDP improvement in the primary surplus. This improvement is predicated on a series of revenue measures; the government is committed to exercise restraint in expenditures, including on wages. The fiscal effort would facilitate a further reduction in the heavy public sector burden.
To lay foundations for faster economic growth, the authorities are committed to maintain macroeconomic stability, take anti-crime measures to improve the business environment and maintain social order; improve infrastructure; strengthen the competitiveness of the economy including through adopting sector-specific growth-oriented policies; continue the effort to reduce labor market rigidities; and adopt further public sector reforms.
Executive Board Assessment
The Jamaican economy suffered major negative shocks during the last fiscal year, including a decline in tourism following the September 11 terrorist attacks, wide-scale flooding, and an outbreak of domestic violence. Directors commended the Jamaican authorities for having maintained macroeconomic stability through this difficult period, as evidenced by the low inflation and positive economic growth. They also saw Jamaica 's successful borrowing in the international bond market as an encouraging sign of the credibility of the authorities ' economic policies.
Directors acknowledged the authorities ' strong fiscal efforts, as evidenced by the achievement of high primary surpluses over the last four years. Given the critical challenge to achieve a permanent reduction in the public debt burden, it was, nevertheless, a source of concern that, partly as a result of measures responding to the recent shocks, the public finances fell short of the targets in the Staff-Monitored Program (SMP)for FY 2001/ 02. Against this backdrop, directors considered that key priorities for the authorities must be to redouble their effort to reverse the fiscal slippages and to strengthen policies over the medium term to improve Jamaica 's growth performance and to achieve a faster reduction in the public debt burden.
Directors welcomed the authorities ' determination to meet their fiscal targets for FY 2002/03 in the context of a new SMP. They emphasized that this will require expeditious implementation of revenue-enhancing measures, including efforts to improve tax compliance, and rigorous restraint in expenditures, particularly on wages. Noting the budgetary impact of the central bank 's losses, they also urged early implementation of the recapitalization plan being worked out with the World Bank. Looking ahead, the authorities will need to maintain a sufficiently high primary surplus over the medium term to ensure the sustainability of public debt, and to facilitate a further reduction in real interest rates.
Directors commended the Bank of Jamaica for achieving single digit inflation for six consecutive years and supported the authorities ' objective of maintaining low and stable inflation. A number of Directors suggested that the Bank should consider acting on very short term interest rates to reduce liquidity rather than longer-term rates, and, in this context, noted the positive impact on private sector lending and growth that could result from a prudent gradual reduction in interest rates.
Most Directors considered the authorities ' approach to exchange rate management as broadly appropriate. A number of them saw scope for somewhat greater exchange rate flexibility to help boost competitiveness, without undermining disinflation efforts. A few other Directors, however, saw a trade-off between achieving competitiveness through significant depreciation and maintaining low inflation. All Directors stressed that sustained structural reform will remain key in underpinning the authorities ' efforts to strengthen external competitiveness and improve current account prospects. Directors urged the authorities to press ahead with the elimination of the foreign exchange surrender requirement, which would remove the multiple currency practice associated with this scheme.
Directors welcomed the authorities ' growth--oriented structural reforms. They urged the government to take further measures to improve public sector efficiency and governance and reduce labor market rigidities, noting that higher employment along with the government 's anti-crime initiatives will be key to promoting social stability and improving the business climate. Some Directors also suggested that stronger efforts to simplify the tax system would foster private sector investment. Directors commended the success of the Financial Sector Adjustment Company (FINSAC)in disposing of assets of the intervened institutions. They supported the authorities ' continued efforts to improve the regulatory framework and strengthen the supervision of both banks and non-bank financial institutions.
Directors welcomed the move to replace reference prices with actual prices as the basis for assessing import duties for certain agricultural products. Noting the large rise in tariff rates for these products, several Directors encouraged the authorities to adopt a timetable for their reduction, although a few acknowledged that this should be facilitated in the context of an international effort to phase out agricultural protection.
Directors welcomed the authorities ' intention to further strengthen the quality of economic statistics and their plan to participate in the General Data Dissemination System. Directors welcomed the measures being taken by the Jamaican authorities against money laundering and encouraged the authorities to continue implementing actions to combat terrorist financing in line with UN resolutions.

Two new fan films hit YouTube this past weekend. The first is a highly anticipated 12-minute fan film based on the video game series Half-Life, called Beyond Black Mesa. We here at Laser Orgy love Half-Life; we gave Half-Life 2 our top spot in the Laser Orgy 500, so you know we're serious. Commenters over at Kotaku panned this fan film for its "inaccurate" zombies, and I get what they're saying, but personally I see this film as more a tribute to the zombie shooter game genre as a whole rather than a fan's attempt at a flawless rendering of the Half-Life universe.

Reviews of this property
Hana's apartment was delightful. Lovely big bedrooms, high ceilings, good beds, big bathroom and second separate toilet.
Very comfortable, cosy and slap bang in the middle of the Old Town area. Location couldn't be better.
Hana was very helpful with suggestions of where to go and what to see, plus she organised our transfer back to the airport.
Great place, would certainly recommend.
This was a great place to stay. Very central and enormous apartment. Very comfortable. Hana even arranged transfer from the airport at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended.
NO good experience,sorry. We contracted and paid in advance an apartment as published on WIMDU page "Luxury Flat" located in "U starého hřbitova, 110 00 Prague 1 Old Town, República Checa" , instead we were put in another flat in another building located in Elisky,old town. Not good apartment , far from being a Luxury Flat. We did not receive a previous message of the change neither from Hanna or Wimdu. We realized by ourselves that it was not the flat contracted. During a phone call with Hanna she recognized that we were in a different apartment , because the contracted one was under maintenance, bla, bla, bla. bla. We felt cheated.
PERFECT! This apartment was just amazing. Very clean, large and centrally located! Hana was a perfect hostess. Also, the shuttle was on time and very friendly and accommodating. There is absolutely nothing to complain about. We had a great time and will definitely come back again. THANK YOU Hana for an unforgettable time in Prague.
We had a fantastic long week-end in Praag and in the appartment. . We where with 6 persons and for 4 the appartment is very luxery for 6 it is good.
A most perfect stay in Prague!!!
The apartment is really right in the center of Prague, nicely situated near Old-New Synagogue and Old Jewish Cemetery.
You have everything you need in the apartment which is nicely arranged and big enough for families. Think of a rainy day and you don't want to go anywhere - well, a rare situation - you won't regret to stay in Hana's apartment reading some books and contemplating what you might do tomorrow. :-)
And to top it all: Hana will offer you a nice and warm welcome. Evrything's just fine and perfect and very easy. I'd recommend everybody a stay in Hana's apartment!
The apartment is located in a prime location in der Josefstadt / old town opposite the synagogue and the Jewish cemetery. All interesting and famous attractions are easily reached on foot (including the Prague Castle). From the station, the apartment is about 20 minutes away (on foot).
Although situated in the tourist center, it is in the evening / at night very quiet as to move this time, no more tourist groups through the alley in front of the house.
The apartment itself is clean, bright and friendly. Kitchen, bathroom (in addition there are in the apartment is a separate toilet) and bedrooms provide ample space for four to five people.
Hana, the landlady is friendly and administration, communication is timely and uncomplicated from.
Overall, a recommended place to stay!
Die Wohnung befindet sich in bester Lage in der Josefstadt / Altstadt gegenüber der Synagoge bzw. des jüdischen Friedhofs. Alle interessanten bzw. bekannten Sehenswürdigkeiten sind fußläufig gut zu erreichen (auch die Prager Burg). Vom Bahnhof aus ist die Wohnung ca. 20 Minuten entfernt (zu Fuß).
Obwohl mitten im Touristenzentrum gelegen, ist sie abends/nachts sehr ruhig, da sich zu dieser Zeit keine Touristengruppen mehr durch die Gasse vor dem Haus bewegen.
Die Wohnung selbst ist sauber, hell und freundlich. Küche, Bad (zusätzlich gibt es in der Wohnung noch eine separate Toilette) und Schlafzimmer bieten ausreichend Platz für vier bis fünf Personen.
Hana, die Vermieterin, ist freundlich und die Abwicklung, Kommunikation läuft zeitnah und unkompliziert ab.
Insgesamt eine empfehlenswerte Unterkunft!

Discussion in 'The Coffee Shop ~ Chit Chat' started by ChevyFan, Sep 7, 2008.
Looks like another Hurricane on its way to the gulf coast. Any word on where it's predicted to hit?
looks like between galveston and beaumont
which once again puts me in the part
i gassed up today //should be here around the end ofthis week :grrrrrr:
il be evac. if the track stays the same
I really freakin hope it doesn't hit SE Texas! I don't mean to wish it upon anyone else, but I just went through the headache of evacuating last week!! So many hurricanes this year!
i hear that matt! :lol:
well it looks like it is comming straight towards me! im about 40 min away from galveston (which is where it is projected to hit) !!
still up in the air about evacuating .. ..it cost so much to take the rv anywhere these days (pulling it with a 2500 dodge diesel @ 9 mpg) :grrrrrr:
we have a genny and several cans of fuel..
well see :neutral:
yall all please pray for all of us down here ..its been a while since we have had a bad hurricane..
im so glad im in the northeast, but stay safe guys!!! hope it doesnt get you!!
It'll probably miss central TX just like all of the other hurricanes. But it is heading straight towards south TX (brownsville) area right now.
Current predicted path
Computer models (ie. possible paths)
Looks like it's going to slam into South Texas somewhere, who knows where these things will hit. Best of luck to everyone down there, stay safe and get out if there is an evac. :great:
They said Corpus Cristi on the news a few minutes ago. If that is so, we will be getting some rain around here.
Looks like it's starting to flood in Galveston already, storm isn't supposed to hit until another 12 hours from now ... looks like it's going to be a bad one.
Don't hear warnings like this all the time.
As Hurricane Ike bore down on the Houston area on Friday morning, the National Weather Service issued a stern warning to people living in small houses on Galveston Island that they faced "certain death" from flooding if they remained in their homes.

I just got back from the PGA Show in Orlando, Florida this weekend and besides the Taylormade RocketBallz Fairway Wood, the hottest new product at the show was Callaway's new Razr Fit Driver! The Razr Fit is the 2nd generation of Razr drivers and it is Callaway's first ever adjustable driver! Already a Golf Medal winner and Product of the Year in this year's Golf Digest Hot List, the Razr Fit features Callaway's patented OptiFit Technology which allows players to adjust both the face angle and either draw or neutral weighting. I was very impressed with the OptiFit technology and unlike many adjustable drivers in the market, the hosel looks very natural and the club looks great in the address position. One of the reason that Callaway held off so long on bringing a fully adjustable driver to the market was that the engineers felt that the additional weight of the hosel negatively impacts the performance of the clubhead. Thanks to Callaway's lightweight, yet durable forged composite material, engineers at Callaway were able to provide the best of both of worlds! This forged composite material in the crown of the clubhead is lighter and stronger than titanium and allows for precision thickness control to optimize the center of gravity. For added forgiveness, the Razr Fit incorporates Speed Frame face technology in order to create a large sweet spot that generates high ball speeds for long, consistent distance. The Razr Fit driver comes equipped with a premium Aldila RIP NV Shaft and the driver is offered in lofts ranging from 8.5* to 11.5*. Overall, I think that the Razr Fit is the best driver Callaway has ever produced and I expect this model to be one of the best selling drivers of 2012!

Stayed here 3 nights. I landed early in the morning, but the earliest time Darrick could arrange for check-in was 1 pm, but I was able to bring my luggage right after arrival, so this wasn't a problem for me. The bed and the bath were bath comfortable. The fridge was big enough to store some water and food in it. If you're not looking for luxus, e.g. when you only stay for transit in Singapur, the room is perfect, espacially for the low price. But it will work also for a longer stay, I'm sure. Would defenitly come back and recommend this!
Great to stay here. Good informed and friendly staff. We stayed there for six days with our young children. Great location and you can access any sightseeing places at ease. I would recommend this place for everyone especially those who travel with young children. Thank you Darrick!
According to description, well-located, well-organised, absolutely recommendable
I needed somewhere centrally located when I visited Singapore.
Wimdu communicated exceptionally well.
Once I made my decision on the accommodation, confirmation was swift and my host ensured clarification of my intentions.
The accommodation exceeded my expectation and the local knowledge shared onsite was invaluable.
All in all a great experience.

Clean and tidy place. very secure and central location. highly recommended and willing to stay next time also.
We stayed for two nights during the first week of December. During our stay, there was no hot water.
Indeed the appt was brandnew and very calm. relative good access to MRT, but very nice walking of 15 min to Clay Quai and Robertson Clay.
All in all highly recommended!
Very good Communication before arrival!
Due to a delay of our flight we arrived at 9pm which was also okay and there was still somebody to give us the key and show us accommodation!
The room looked almost like shown on the pictures and is clean.
The apartment is just 5 min walk to Orchard Road.
Just one negative point: We had room 2F which lays directly next to a Hugh fan or something like that and was running the whole night! For us no problem because it was only one night and we were very tiered due to the long flight. But I guess if you stay there for more nights it will bother you!
Nice new clean apartment. Very spacious and well furbished.
Helpful host.
Good restaurant next door. Convenience store within walking distance.
Will definitely try to book again next time I am in Singapore!

The Destination
Where Route 66 goes, thrills are sure to follow, and Tulsa is no exception. Thanks to old-oil money, T-Town's Art Deco skyline continues to reach heavenward through a bevy of mansions, museums, arenas, and futurist-style university buildings. Alongside this "New Kind Of Energy"—the Tulsan anthem—hang the hallmarks of the heartland: hickory barbecue, Western Swing dancing, and the Arkansas River, whose banks are peppered with benches, bike paths, and trails downtown. A weave of green hills and parks, high walkability, and the cultural thrall of the Brady Arts District led to Tulsa's selection as one of Businessweek's Top 50 Best Cities in America in 2012.
The Digs
The Wyndham Tulsa is an upscale, family-friendly hotel with splashes of luxury and excitement. Non-smoking one-king or two-queen rooms offer True Blue Spa products, individual climate settings, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Coast from your Sleep Number® bed—covered in 100% cotton bedding—to a plate of fluffy eggs and crisp toast at the full breakfast buffet. This Wyndham boasts a 24-hour fitness center, but the real workout is the on-site water playground with slides, water cannons, and tricky rope bridges. For more relaxing aquatics, look no further than the hotel's pool and its Jacuzzi suites.
• Dive into the water park attractions at Leapin' Louie's Lagoon
• Indulge your wild side at the Tulsa Zoo
• See what's beneath the surface at Oklahoma Aquarium
• Journey through playgrounds and sculpture gardens at River Parks
• Raise a glass and down a burger at at Mulligan's Sport and Spirits

There have been various programs, with various names, designed for the purpose of using public funds to pay for all or part of the costs of students' tuition at private or religious schools. Those in support of vouchers say they increase "school choice" or "parent choice." HSLDA opposes vouchers as they are not a free hand-out from the government and will regulate parental freedoms. To date, no national voucher system has been established, nor is a state voucher system available to homeschools.
Our government has the responsibility to spend our money frugally. For the government to "just give" vouchers to homeschoolers would be irresponsible and pointless. If no strings are attached to vouchers, why waste the time and money sending tax dollars through a complicated bureaucracy only to be returned to the parents? Voucher proponents have conceded that regulation would accompany vouchers, but claim it would not be excessive. HSLDA has spent nearly 20 years fighting to protect parental rights to teach children at home; vouchers would hinder the furtherance of this right.

Experts weigh in on effects of bathroom dispute on transgender child
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Experts who work with trans and gender queer adolescents said on Thursday the school's decision on which bathroom a transgender student can use can have long-term psychological consequences.
Six-year-old Coy Mathis identified as a girl starting at 18 months. Mathis' parents pulled their children from Eagleside Elementary school after the school said Mathis would not be able to use the girls' bathroom anymore. Its new rules would require Mathis the boys' bathroom or the staff bathroom.
Erica Laue is a child therapist who works with trans and gender queer adolescents. She said if the school insists that Mathis use the boy's bathroom, it can lead to bullying, followed by low self-confidence and even addiction problems.
Laue said transgender children facing a crisis like this can feel excluded and ostracized by the school community and society. Laue applauded Mathis' parents for their response to the situation. She said it can be tricky to fight for a child's rights without letting the child be exploited.
"Holding a child up in the news media as a point of a story can be really exploitative," said Laue. "But times but at the same time, we are facing a cultural crisis where we have a whole bunch of children who are trans or gender queer that don't understand why it is that they're not being validated."
The executive director of Inside/Out Youth Services said the bathroom issue continues to be a point of contention for the transgender community. She said schools must legally accommodate and respect the needs to transgender students.
The executive director said it's a good thing the issue of which bathroom Mathis can use is being raised at such a young age. She said this will give the school a chance to figure out the appropriate way to handle the issue and the community can move forward.
Jason Marsden is the executive director of the Matthew Shepard Foundation. According to its website, the foundation works to "replace hate with understanding, compassion and acceptance." Marsden and the foundation work with the LGBT community.
Marsden commented on the long-term impact the bathroom issue on a transgender child.
"Teasing, bullying, ostracization from a social group can definitely be a concern. And then, those things happening to someone who is 5, 6, 7 years old can be very damaging to future psychological development.
Marsden pointed out a similar case involving a transgender student and a school in Boulder, Colo., several years ago. He said he's seen cases like this around the U.S. He said eventually, this issue will be resolved and the community will move forward.

MIT student Nikolai Begg has combined his lifelong interest in medicine with his engineering skills to develop a potentially life-saving medical device that improves the safety of puncture access procedures. His work has also earned him the $30,000 Lemelson-MIT Student Prize to help bring his invention to market. I had a chance to speak with Nikolai about how he came up with the idea and his hopes for the future.

text: hello all, well, I decided to include my current build in build-off since to be honest; it's all I'm working on for myself right now. The premise for building this bike is clear..I want a bike to mimic the General Lee from "the Dukes of Hazzard". I've seen this attempted many times before and to be honest, they just seem to be lacking the key elements that made that ole' Charger shine and the elements that made you tune in every week to watch. I''m going to incorporate those elements into my build and hope it turns out like I planned..stay tuned :mrgreen: I started with a basic 1979 Sting-Ray frame(as I do a lot for my Theme Bike builds) stripped & primed and ready for the Hugger Orange paint Got is set in Hugger Orange with a couple coats of clear(sorry I did not get any pics before I assembled the frame) Had this Crankset lying around, thought it would fit the part A little trim black on the headbadge the frame is starting to look about right

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
The 49ers were the best team 2 years in a row and have no ring to prove it.
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
I am so glad the Raven's beat the 49rs. I just can't stand that ****y POS team that can't give credit where credit is due.
I understand the sentiment, but I don't agree with it. The 49ers, on paper and in theory are the best team in the league. Playmaking TE and WR, strong RB, dual threat QB that hadn't been figured out yet, best offensive line, great defense, so on and so forth.
But they didn't fair well against more balanced teams. They thrashed GB and NE, but teams that can defend and play physical ball like the Seahawks, Giants, or even the Rams gave them problems. It did not surprise me at all that the Ravens were up by so much before the power outage.
Honestly, it should have been a blowout.
This guy could play the 85 bears and he'd still say they were the better team.

I have concluded the 2005 Equinox looks better than the 2011 Equinox. It appears more "sporty" more "suv like" and less blob like. There are a couple of aspects I don't care for all that much but as a whole, I dig the older one more.Now in terms of the *design only* leaving quality totally out of the picutre, which one do you guys prefer more?
I agree with you, however I prefer the Pontiac Torrent, especially in black. I also prefer The GMC Terrain more than the 2011 Equinox, again in black.
I disagree, I really like the new 2011 equinox visually, its a much fresher cleaner look to me. Just my opinion though
Deff the 2011 looks miles better.
countrycoach:Deff the 2011 looks miles better.It looks like a station wagon more like an SUV to me. I think a Dodge Caliber has more ground clearance lol.
Design only i'll go with the old one. though the torrent looked better then both old and new equinox.
--------------------I'm working on a scifi-adventure webcomic!
I am torn between the two as both had elements I really like. The 05, for instance, has nice big windows all the way around giving good visibility out of the car. I also like the more squared off style. The '11 has a better interior with a stylish dash and super comfy seats. It feels more sporty just by looking at it. More athletic while the old one more resembles a Ford Escape as seen by Chevy.Now, if there was a way to blend the athleticism of the 2011 model with the squared off '05 model while keeping the '05's outward visibility intact and the 11's interior.... Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
____________________________Edgy, Controversial, Dangerous...
Alex daOriginal:Design only i'll go with the old one. though the torrent looked better then both old and new equinox.Personally I think the XL7 was the best looking of the bunch:
Really Z? I actually always thought the Saturn variants were the best looking. Especially the first gen models:
GenCoupe3.8:Really Z? I actually always thought the Saturn variants were the best looking. Especially the first gen models:Yeah actually I do like that 1st gen look.
Yeah... No.lol2011 is a beauty in my eye. Previous gen, while I'd take it vs competition from that era, can't touch the current gen in the looks department.

Latvia SIG
The Latvia SIG is a group that focuses on Jewish genealogical research in Latvia. Our goals include
- Distributing a quarterly newsletter devoted to Latvian genealogical issues and information that will assist members in researching their family histories. The newsletter may in the future be online for those members that have Internet access and will still be mailed to all other members. The whole subject is under review at present.
- Setting up a bibliography on Latvia to assist genealogical researchers in their efforts.
- Documenting Latvian towns where Jews lived, including their history and current status, with details of contacts, addresses, cemeteries and mass graves, where applicable.
- Making contacts with communities in Latvia and maintaining the excellent relationship we have cemented with the Archivists in the Latvian state Historical Archives.
- Collecting materials and data on Latvian Jewry, including books, archival materials, property records, maps, articles, family histories, documents and lists of various types, and making such materials available to members, both through our newsletter ,web site and the All Latvia Database.
- Recording members' narratives of trips to ancestral towns and individual research experiences.
- Recording known details of Holocaust events in Latvia.
- Keeping current on new resources as they come available, and publicizing them to our members.
- Creating a Latvia Family Finder of towns and surnames being researched by members. We also encourage our members to contribute to the JewishGen Family Finder (JGFF).
- Cooperating with other Special Interest Groups (SIGs) and Research Groups such as The Courland Research Group on projects of mutual interest.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is our intent to provide research tools to assist members with their own research, but we do not have the resources to do research on individual families for our members.

Discussion in 'Maintenance & Upkeep' started by treeman407, May 10, 2012.
i'm trying to set the time on my 1996 5.7 can someone give me the setting on how to do it?
Do you have a scan tool that has setting to time. Can not set timing on a 96 without one.
If you have a scan tool you will have to hold rpm,s at around 1100 rpm,s loosen distributor set timing at 2 degree before or after tdc.
Tighten dist. recheck with tool. Can get #1 piston to top dead center.first one on driver side .Look see if rotor is pointing at #1 plug wire on dist. cap.
If off a little loosen dist. turn dist. till rotor pointing at #1 will get close till you get it timed at garage.
If rotor is pointing at #6 will be 180 off #1 piston will be on exhaust stroke .
Both intake valves have to be closed for tdc.
i have it at my buddies shop but we can only get it to 17 degees. i guess what im asking is what should it be timed at?
dipstick gave you the right idea. The 2 degree variance will do fine. These engines timings will be taken over by the main cpu as long as you're close. If you go too far outside it will cause intake kickback and backfiring through the throttlebody.
I set mine TDC myself and it took over after first startup and purred like a kitten. And that was just using my finger in number 1 spark plug hole to feel for air.

If a virus is killing off bees, is it safe for humans to consume honey, or bee pollen, or royal jelly? Are organic bees less vulnerable? What about all these other suggested causes of the bees disappearing disease? If you see some strange bee behavior, who you gonna call? We handle these questions and more in the wake of the journal Sciences latest study on
Colony Collapse Disorder, or CCD, is characterized by the rapid disappearance of a bee colony even though there seems to be no reason for them to vanish. One week, the hive seems to be buzzing, with plenty of food. The next week, the bees are gone to who knows where. Scientists took note of CCD's rise a year ago and have suggested a range of causes for the phenomenon - including parasites, pesticide poisoning, global warming and the stress of the bees being moved around by commercial pollination operations.
The latest research cites a correlation with another factor, the presence of a little-known virus that was first isolated in Israel. But the mystery has not yet been solved, and researchers say they still have more questions than answers. Msnbc.com users had questions as well, and to answer them, I consulted research entomologist Jay Evans at the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service and reviewed my notes from past interviews. Here's a sampling of the frequently asked questions:
I was wondering if there in any research on possible effects to humans. I personally take bee pollen every day for vitamins, minerals, amino acids, energy, etc. Believe it or not, I also take it as a possible antivirus [measure]. My children take daily spoons full of honey to help with allergies. Any thoughts? - William Brewer
"Honey and pollen, and more recently royal jelly, have been ruled out for any human diseases," Evans said. He explained that the suspect virus in particular, known as the Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus, "is not on the radar screen for any disease outside of honeybees."
Evans said honey can contain bacterial spores that cause botulism in human infants. "That very rarely gets into the honey from the plants," he said, and that's why experts advise against feeding honey to infants less than a year old.
As for bee pollen and royal jelly, the virus may not be a concern, but some skeptics say those substances are of dubious health value and may bring on allergy attacks instead of warding them off. Bee propolis - the "glue" that holds the hives together - may have some health properties but also poses an allergy risk, according to the published literature.
If there are no dead bees being found, then how can we say for certain they are dying? Can the Africanized honey bees and their migration into the United States be a contributing factor if not a cause? Do we know if regular honeybees migrate and, if so, do we know anything about the patterns or timing? How long exactly have we been keeping track of bee movements? If it is less than, say, 200 years, can we really rule out that this is just a pre-existing pattern? - Brad Schader
"They're not finding the dead bees in high numbers, which actually is a good indicator of what's going on," Evans said. If, for instance, pesticides were the primary factor behind the flight of the honeybee, scientists would expect to find bunches of dead bees lying around the hive. Instead, it looks as if the individual bees just fly off and die.
"Do they simply peter out and lose energy? Or do they actually get disoriented? Both of those have been tied to diseases in the past," Evans said.
Bee turnover rates are typically high during the summer foraging season, Evans acknowledged. "In the summer, a 20,000-bee colony will completely turn over in about 30 days," he said.
Penn State entomologist Diana Cox-Foster, the lead author for the Science study, provided some additional perspective in an e-mail. If statistics scare you, feel free to skip over these paragraphs:
"A nationwide survey initiated in spring 2007 by the Apiary Inspectors of America (van Engelsdorp et al., 2007) suggests that a 17 percent loss of colonies is considered normal in an average year. This is astonishing, given that one would be hard-pressed to find another agricultural commodity that could sustain a 17 percent loss annually. This same survey also documented a recent increase in losses across the nation. An estimated 22 percent of beekeepers suffered CCD and lost on average 44.5 percent of their operation.
"In Pennsylvania since 1930, bee colonies have regularly been inspected for disease; thus, data from Pennsylvania provide an ideal database to monitor changes in incidences of bee diseases. To determine the scope of CCD, Dennis vanEngelsdorp (the acting state apiarist with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture) in conjunction with Apiary Inspectors of America has conducted a recent survey of Pennsylvania beekeepers that reveals a significant number of colonies collapsing with CCD.
"Among beekeepers owning 43 percent of Pennsylvania colonies and responding to the survey, the CCD-suffering beekeepers lost an average of 73 percent of their hives (ranging from 55 to 100 percent), compared with non-CCD suffering beekeepers who lost an average of 25 percent of their colonies (ranging from 18 to 31 percent). Of significance, those reporting CCD own a quarter of all bee colonies in Pennsylvania. These losses translate into limited pollination resources for Pennsylvania and increased costs to both growers and consumers.
"In Pennsylvania, the current cost of pollination has increased by 50 percent and may increase even more as the 2007 season progresses."
As for the Africanized honey bees, Evans noted that they've been around for a couple of decades in the American Southwest, and there doesn't seem to be any correlation between the onslaught of the "killer bees" and the rise of CCD.
Domesticated bees have been having a hard time in recent years, not just because of the competition from killer bees, but also because of the spread of parasites such as Varroa mites. A cold winter here or a dry summer there can also deal a blow to bee colonies.
"There are years, winters essentially, that are bad for bees - with maybe 30 percent mortality," Evans said. But Colony Collapse Disorder is a pattern of bee loss that scientists haven't seen much before.
"These colonies where the bees just disappeared, two weeks before they were very robust. That points to someting new, as opposed to the winter losses that we've seen," Evans said.
Cox-Foster theorized that bee disappearances may have arisen as an evolutionary adaptation to past virus infections: Something in the stressed-out bee might trigger an urge to flee or short-circuit its directional sense, in order to save the rest of the colony from infection.
The bee death mystery was solved long, long ago. I have been shocked you and others in the media do not read more. Note the following [article]: "A parasite common to Asian bees has spread to Europe and the Americas and is behind the mass disappearance of honeybees in many countries... says a Spanish scientist.... the culprit is a microscopic parasite called Nosema ceranae. ..." - Stephen Stiltner
Scientists did mention Nosema in the latest report, and I referred to it in my article as well. "It's all over the place," Evans noted. "Both species of that parasite are common in the U.S., and you can't make a strong correlation with the actual syndrome."
There have been previous claims for a CCD-like syndrome called "disappearing disease," reportedly going back as far as 1915, and some entomologists have proposed that the malady is due to a combination of a Nosema-style parasitic attack plus a viral infection. "It's not inconceivable that they co-occur, and only when they're together is a cause and effect," Evans said.
But taken just by itself, the presence of the Nosema parasite is "a pretty poor indicator" for CCD, Evans said.
I recently read several articles about the honeybee die-off at the Organic Consumers Association that I found interesting. I would really like to know if it is true that "organic" bees are not suffering the die-off. - Cathy Evans

5 Champagnes to Celebrate the New Year
<p>Blow your guests' minds with the pop of a top. </p>
If you're not sipping flutes of mimosas for breakfast often enough to tell a delectable pop from some overpriced, bubbly flop, have no fear. Playboy.com calls in the expert advice of NYC-based sommelier, Laura Maniec, to help you curate the most delicious, decadent champagne list your New Year's Eve ever met.
2014 never looked so golden. Happy New Year!
Blanc de Blancs is a delicate style of champagne made from 100 percent chardonnay. It is the only white grape permitted in champagne and has a refreshing green apple, pear and lime zest aroma/flavor. Try Pierre Moncuit Hugues de Coulmet Blanc de Blancs Brut NV Le Mesnil-Sur-Oger.
Rose champagne is perfect for richer-flavored food and to give as a gift or bring to a dinner party. Try Ruinart Brut NV, which boasts flavors of red cherries, tart strawberries, vanilla and hibiscus.
Made by a female winemaker in the southernmost region of Champagne, this wine is off the beaten path but definitely a wine to watch, with feminine flavors—honeysuckle, apricots, apple blossom—and a long-lasting finish.
This champagne is from one of my favorite houses and consistently produces great wine, but this is simply a steal; there are very few champagnes that deliver the quality for money that this wine does.
I love that the house of Krug are the ultimate optimists; instead of calling their wine nonvintage, they call it multivintage, which it is; their wine is in a class of its own. Barrel-fermented champagne is hard to come by; Krug is rich and decadent yet refreshing and elegant.
Sommelier Laura Maniec runs her own wine studio, Corkbuzz Wine Studio, in New York City.

The rest of the teams we face are struggling just as bad as we are or even worse so it's not over if we lose Sunday, just saying.. Also I believe the Bears fall and the Packers rise. NFC Wildcard Prediction: Dallas vs Bears (Rematch - Payback baby:starspin) 28-17 Dallas

Solar cooking carts
Redirected from File:West's Solar Oven Cooking Cart in action closeupssmaller.jpg
this wiki
Matt West 19 April 2008
I've just now envisioned the ULTIMATE SOLAR COOKING COMBO CART. Envision any sturdy cart. Now envision it with a solar oven and a solar dish cooker side-by-side on top of the cart. That's the next thing I will build and post here. I want to hear from people who would like to see this thing controlled by using Radio Controlled Car parts. You only need to make two adjustments; verticle and horizontal, and only every 10-20 minutes. With a remote adjuster control you could aim it from indoors and continue with what you had been doing, without having to stop to go out and track the sun. Or, at least a switch to control a motor would be very useful to keep people from thinking of it as a chore. Automatic solar tracking is even more attractive sounding if it will properly focus a parabolic dish once per minute or whatever.
Now envision the cook and the people who are using it around the world. The cart will need lots of baskets, cabinets, and an insulated storage cabinet/steam cabinet or both. If it were me cooking for years to feed a large family, I would want all the claptrap one would find on a top-notch vendor cart and more. Items such as a tool caddy and spice rack, napkin dispenser, solar weather radio, and normal radio, and other solar electronc items, with a battery and LED lights for use after dark. Don't forget hot and cold water jugs, washbin, towels, sunblock, toothpick holder, and a rocket stove too. Now think even more empathetically and you know you need a good picnic umbrella and/or shade tent/awning, as well as a folding chair or two.
South of the equator the cookers need to be on the other side or the cart. On the equator you cannot have stacked cookers; a big part of the day they would shade each other. By being juxtaposed you wont have accidents involving the breakage of your oven and so on.
Now think bigger still. Envision a 16 ft trailer loaded with multiple solar cooking devices and a family earning a living with solar cooking. On cloudy days they switch to wood or whatever. They can soot their pots on those days. Soot is excellent for absorbing sunlight.
Teach them to fish and you will feed them for a lifetime.
Post your Solar Cooking Combination Cart photos.

Dublin born Paul Costelloe is one of the most established names in British Fashion. With a strong sense of style and the desire to create wearable designs with a fresh feel, it is easy to see why Paul Costelloe has been the head of such a successful label for over 30 years.
In the late 1960s, Paul went to Paris and enrolled at the Chamber Syndicate, the French equivalent of the British Fashion Council. Typically dismissive of his formal training, Paul says he learnt most about fashion just by living in Paris in the era of Ungaro and Cardin. By 1969, still only 23 years old, he was design assistant to Jacques Esterel. Moving from the sublime to the commercial two years later, Paul became a designer with Marks & Spencer and was sent to train in Milan. M&S soon abandoned their assault on the Italians but Paul stayed on with La Renescente, the department store whose previous designers had included Georgio Armani. By the time he had added the USA to his CV, working first in New York and then in Philadelphia, Paul Costelloe had become an experienced designer. It was time to create his own label, which he did by moving back to Ireland in 1979. By 1994 the Paul Costelloe brand was established enough to have a flagship UK store in the heart of Knightsbridge.
Always practical and refreshingly free of pretension, Paul is also proud of having designed uniforms for national airlines such as Aer Lingus, British Airways and Delta Airlines, and sports teams such as the England Women's Cricket Team, Great British Federation Cup Women's Tennis Team and most recently designing the looks for the wives of the European Team at The Ryder Cup in Chicago this year. Presently Paul Costelloe continues to build his womenswear business in the U.K. and Ireland, supported by a rich diversity of product areas he continues to strengthen and emerge into, such as menswear, homewares, jewellery, handbags and corporate wear. Paul hopes to see the future of the brand as one where the Costelloe name continues to deepen its roots in the UK and Ireland whilst exploring new territories abroad to embrace the global prospects opening across the industry.
