"This is a beautiful collection of John Denver songs. The choice of music on the "Love Song" CD allows us to enjoy the clarity, richness, range and emotion of Cathy's voice. The words and music of the title song, which she wrote, are just beautiful and straight from the heart.....what a tribute to John Denver!"
Michael Donegan (Ireland)
"I have the pleasure of being the first to comment on this wonderful new album of gospel music
A Matter of Faith from Cathy Gianfala Carriere, who has previously impressed me with her collection of John Denver songs. Cathy is certainly a versatile artist and she shows it here across a wide range of songs of faith, including some that are new to me. This is an artist who knows how to deliver a song. Another excellent album from Cathy Gianfala Carriere."

I purchased this because I could not find my regular body lotion and I was super pleased! My go to scent is tropical/fruity however I was completely drawn to this one. It is a relaxing scent, similarl to a cool cucumber but is definitely multi-dimensional. I'm not a fan of green tea scents and I would not liken this to it. I love the thick consistency and even used it in the summer! The smell is so fresh that the whole experience made it feel light enough for summer. The only draw back is that I felt I went through it quite quickly and was not thrilled with the price (though I purchased it in the UK where it may have been more expensive).
Something happened to my computer when I tried to post it and for Recommended it should be You Betcha!

The Luxury Visionaries 2016
A few years ago, at the magazine where I work, we were knocking about a few ideas for industry leaders we could helpfully "restyle" using mocked-up, "real life" makeovers.
We'd already done politicians (easy – just put them in a suit that fits and shoes that match), and were toying with overhauling the famously awful off-track attire of F1 drivers (about which, we concluded, little if anything could be done) when we alighted on those champions of the touchline: Premiership managers.
We were well-served as there were, at the time, quite a few long-standing examples, at least one of whom merited special consideration given that he was, even in the heat of battle, one of the most effectively attired men not only of his profession but of his generation.
So it was with a certain amount of pride that I – a footballing naïf with barely a school-age game to my resumé – dressed up as José Mourinho in what we believed at the time were cutting-edge styles suitable for the stadium and beyond (from memory, my "Mourinho" teamed a "moncho" with some rather heavy-looking tweed trousers).
The effect, after José's head had been Photoshopped in place of mine, was rather less convincing than even our tongue-in-cheek intentions had allowed for. Nothing to do with my physique standing in for his, you understand, more to do with the fact that we were attempting to improve on a certain kind of sartorial perfection. Because whatever you think of Mourinho – and for many he will always combine the machismo of a McEnroe with the malevolence of a Medellin enforcer – for years he's pitched his match-day wardrobe in a way that not only does justice to his global stature, but offers a way forward for just about any man of his approximate age (myself included).
After Mourinho took himself off to other teams in other leagues, my interest in his attire ebbed accordingly. But then, this season, he returned to Chelsea and, given a mid-week goalless draw at home to West Ham, gave me the chance to observe the man's effortlessly maturing wardrobe in person. The above-the-knee grey coat that marked his first tenure at Stamford Bridge is now consigned to the club's museum, replaced by a rather less flattering down-filled parka, but the old elegance somehow continues to shine through.
This was confirmed to me last week, when I attended the UK launch of Jaguar's new F-Type Coupe. José Mourinho has been brought on as its launch ambassador, a savvy decision given the nexus of key-jangling anxieties that exists between footballers and their respective rides. But Mourinho also extols a kind of educated indifference to frills and fuss, and is therefore the perfect candidate to authenticate Jaguar's desire to build cars that offer more than (considerable) kerb appeal.
At Canary Wharf last Thursday evening – despite the cereal box-sized Hublot on his discreetly tattooed wrist – Mourinho looked every inch the anti-manager in his black suit, white open-necked shirt and brown suede boots. So did he have a particular interest in clothes, I asked? "Not really," he replied. "When I go to the matches, I don't go there to worry about looking good or looking trendy. I go in a way where I feel good, that's my only concern. I must feel comfortable. So when I speak to my sponsors [Hackett] I always want to try something I'm really happy to wear.
"But I like to be correct for the occasion," he added, in that gnomic, slightly Yoda-ish way he has in post-match interviews. "I don't like to be outside the normality. So if I go out for dinner with my wife in a nice restaurant, I'm not going in jeans or training shoes."
So who does he think dresses well? "I have lots of respect for the people who are [in their] sixties, seventies, even eighties who look fantastic," he replied. "I like to see an old gentleman very well dressed, very smart – I have a lot of respect for these people."
Any examples? "The other day I met Sir – and he really represents what a Sir is – Michael Caine and he looked fantastic. What class. The way he behaves, very humble, but the way he was dressed was fantastic. Sean Connery. I'm a fan of him also. I hope I can arrive where they have arrived in terms of brain and body, it's fantastic."
From car coats to cashmere, the sartorial options for footballing's coach-class have grown with the game itself. But for me, José Mourinho triumphs above all others. Surely it can't be long before he's known simply as the Stylish One.

I saw on another forum (not listing because I support this forum) but it said that there were huge rumors indicating Kharitonov who is coming off a lose to Aleksander Emelianenko will fight Edson Drago, who hasn't faught in PRIDE FC for some time. Kharitonov is hugely favoured to win.
Also what sounds like it might go down at Shockwave is a rematch between Rodrigo Nogueira and Barnett, the one match everyone wants to see considering it was a draw in everyones opinion and a great grappling bout.

I called them today just to see if they had gotten my application (which was mailed June 24). With the high amount of non-resident applications they are still working on the ones from the first week of March. I might see my permit in about 4 or 5 months. Just hope they don't try to stick me with the increase.
I received mine June 12th, great bargin. On the other side, I wanted FL for NV and it's no good now. My FL should come in 2 weeks.

Well, look at it this way - the only reason they're doing this is because they have been SWAMPED by non-resident applications. Hopefully, they will use the increased revenue appropriately - by hiring additional staff to process applications - rather than just dumping it into the state coffers.

One problem is if you're going to NH itself, you'll need that NR permit, as they don't accept any other state NR permit. They don't have much in the way of reciprocity as it stands now.

Research support down 23 percent over last decade
State support for the state's two major research institutions has declined 23 percent over the past decade on a per-pupil basis, according to a study made public Tuesday by the National Science Board.
The study found that similar cuts were prevalent in many states, and amounted to about one-fifth of all state support nationally. It argues that the mission of the country's 101 major public research universities is imperiled by those cuts.
The two Kansas research institutions, Kansas State University and the University of Kansas, saw per-student state funding reduced from $7,044 in 2002 to $5,405 in 2012, according to data contained in the report. The findings were based on a total enrollment of 52,823 for the two institutions.
The decline in per pupil support put Kansas 20th among the 50 states, with two states — Colorado and Rhode Island — seeing reductions close to 50 percent.
The National Science Board provides independent advice to the federal government and oversees the National Science Foundation.
The study is the latest in a series of alarm bells warning that public research universities — which perform the majority of academic science and engineering research funded by the federal government, and educate a disproportionate share of scientists in training — have been weakened by years of eroding state support. Many are losing their best faculty to private institutions, and tuition increases in response to the budget cuts threaten the historically affordable access students have enjoyed.
Among the report's findings: While public research universities still managed to increase instructional spending 10 percent between 1999 and 2009, to about $10,000 per student, private universities increased such spending 25 percent over that period, and now spend more than twice as much per student on teaching as their public counterparts.
Meanwhile, the salary gap between public and private research universities is also widening, raising the specter of a two-tier system in which most of the very best faculty migrate to private institutions and work with a comparatively small number of students.
Public research universities — particularly top-tier flagship institutions like the universities of Michigan, Virginia, Texas and California — are in some ways stuck between worlds. They compete for students and faculty and conduct research on a national and even global scale. But they remain under substantial political control of the states, and dependent on them for funding.
That funding has fallen precipitously, from 38 percent of their budgets two decades ago to about 23 percent now, with the number now below 10 percent at several top institutions. As those percentages fall further, some experts believe public institutions could begin essentially privatizing themselves, giving up what little state funding remains — and the public obligations it carries — in exchange for autonomy.
Funding for public research universities varies widely among states, from a low of $3,482 in Vermont in 2010 to $16,986 in Wyoming, which had the second-largest increase over the decade, behind only New York.
Roughly a dozen states increased funding in absolute terms but in about half those states, including Arkansas, Connecticut and Missouri, enrollment growth meant there was still less money per student.
"The public should understand what could be lost if public research universities wither away," said NSB member Ray Bowen, president emeritus of Texas A&M University. He said those losses could include not only the prospect of future discoveries in medicine and technology, but key drivers of economic development. The report found the institutions produced 436 new start-ups in 2010 alone.
"You go to Austin, Texas (home of the University of Texas), that city is a vibrant economic environment because of that university, because of the bright people it produces and the faculty research that takes place," Bowen said. "Same with Texas A&M."
No state has seen more contentious battles over the place of public research universities than Texas, where a board of regents appointed by Gov. Rick Perry has pushed for a focus on teaching, accountability and lower costs and expressed skepticism over the full value to taxpayers of the kind of research UT does.
The university and its alumni have fought back, insisting there's a place for an elite research university in a state system.
Public universities have acknowledged their obligations to improve efficiency, while emphasizing basic research may not always pay off immediately or in strict economic terms. A recent similar report by the National Research Council said revitalizing public research universities requires more funding from Washington, more autonomy from states if they won't maintain funding levels, and more productivity from universities themselves.
"Universities have to adjust," Bowen said. "Those that have not already started have perhaps made a mistake. There's no question they have to become more efficient."

How and Why to use a Consultant
We would like to explain the situations that justify use of outside consultants (and those that do not) and how to select the appropriate consultant.
There are five reasons to use a consultant and four rules for selecting a consultant. If your situation doesn't fit one of these five reasons, you probably do not need to hire an outsider to help you. If the consultants that you interview fail any of the four tests, look for someone else.
Why to Use A Consultant
1. An Agency In Crisis - Many reasons could cause crises in agencies. Financial failure is the most prevalent crisis in today's insurance agency industry. The combination of increased overhead, soft markets and commission reductions have pushed many agencies over the edge of the break-even line. Most agencies, through poor fiscal habits, have few reserves to offset multiple years of losses. A qualified insurance agency consultant can help you either take the hard steps to quickly turn your agency or to develop new marketing plans to generate sufficient income to return the company to profitability.
Other issues can be just as critical to your business as financial failure. Death or departure of a partner or key employee is an example of crises often requiring outside intervention.
2. An agency in Change - Change is always with us. However, many businesses have found their niche, their market and the method that is successful for them. As a wise man once said, "You don't fix that which is not broke." These agents may fine tune their systems in reaction to market changes, automation, etc. but their basic operation is sound and should remain that way. On the other hand, if you sell personal lines in an area in which the companies have decided not to sell personal lines, you are in trouble. It is no longer important that you are the best personal lines agency in the area. Remember, the "best" buggy whip manufacturers went out of business with the advent and success of automobiles - unless they changed their business. These are the kinds of changes that can use outside intervention to help develop.
3. New and arising organizations - Most agency owners are experts in the products and sales techniques of insurance. They have generally little experience constructing new companies or merging existing companies. Attempts to buy, sell, merge or create organizations without any help is almost as smart as "Do It Yourself Surgery" in order to save the surgeon's fees. Chances are that the next doctor who works on you will be the coroner. Using your local accountant as your advisor is akin to turning the surgery over to your general practitioner, he knows the body parts, but is probably not acquainted enough with the specialized business of insurance agencies to conduct the surgery without help.
4. Organizational Conflict - Who in the agency is suited to resolve conflicts among or between the owners or key managers? A professional consultant can act as mediator and can suggest methods of resolution to avoid resignations or even dissolution of a company.
5. Undisciplined Organizations - Strategic Planning is the disciplined approach that we use to professionalize businesses. Most insurance agencies in the United States and Canada began and grew in the "boom times". Referrals, increasing rates and growing public need kept agents busy, whether or not they were working efficiently or professionally. The times have changed and those agencies who have remained undisciplined and free-wheeling are suffering. A good consultant can help you establish that discipline and professionalism that will permit you to recognize your strengths and weaknesses and change your organization
How To Select A Consultant
1. Interview - Speak directly to the consultant that you would be using. Review your situation and ask for examples of similar situations that he has encountered and methods that he has used to assist the client. This interview, normally conducted by phone, establishes whether your consultant's personality will match yours.
2. References - Seek and contact references. Consultants feel that all of their clients are happy with their services. However, clients are often brutally honest about the consultant's shortcomings as well as his strengths.
3. History and Documentation - Ask for and read documentation describing the consultants activities and specialties.
4. Consulting Proposal - Once the consultant understands your problems and needs ask for a proposal defining the services that he proposes, the time necessary to accomplish the solutions and the cost associated with his activities. Those costs can be stated as a guaranteed cost or an estimated cost. Expect to pay expenses in addition to the consulting fees.
Consulting costs are determined by the time needed to accomplish the task at hand. Consultants should give you a good idea of the costs associated with a task or job from their experience doing similar jobs for other agents. Some products and modules such as valuations, Strategic Planning Sessions, agency analysis and automation analysis can normally be firmly priced. Other activities like conflict resolution and merger negotiations are priced per diem. Many consultants will offer their services on retainer, permitting them more certainty of time commitment and the client a lower cost as a result.
Consider the use of a consultant with the same gravity as the use of a doctor. A wrong choice in either case can worsen the situation. The right consultant can relieve the problems and set you on the right course for your business' future.

Mubarak Holds Talks with Assad
Presidents Hosni Mubarak of Egypt and Syria's Bashar Al Assad held talks in Damascus Sunday on the latest escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
State radio said Mubarak flew in from Cairo and went straight into talks, after being greeted at the airport by Assad and vice presidents Abdel Halim Khaddam and Zuheir Masharka, said AFP.
Egypt and Syria insist on an Israeli withdrawal from Arab lands occupied in the 1967 Middle East war as the key to peace in the region, but they differ on the ongoing Intifada, the Palestinian uprising against 34 years of Israeli occupation.
Damascus supports a continuation of the Intifada, whereas Cairo has called for the Palestinians and Israel to consolidate a ceasefire to allow for a resumption of peace negotiations.
"Some parties expect the government of (Israeli Prime Minister Ariel) Sharon to follow the path of peace," Syria's government daily Tishrin said on Sunday, pointing to the differences.
"But this is impossible. All the signs are that this government wants to set the whole region ablaze, not just the Palestinian territories," it charged.
"The Arabs should act quickly to forge an effective solidarity in the face of the danger," Tishrin warned, as quoted by AFP.
AFP quoted a source at the Egyptian presidential office as confirming the meeting, saying that it comes "within the context of inter-Arab coordination in the face the deteriorating situation in the Palestinian territories."
The summit follows a decision by the Arab League to put off an emergency meeting of Arab foreign ministers, originally scheduled for Sunday in the Qatari capital, Doha.
The meeting has been indefinitely delayed, "to give a chance to US efforts to bring the crisis under control," a diplomat involved in the meeting told The Associated Press.
However, the urgent meeting has been scaled down to consultative meeting of league foreign ministers to take place Monday in Doha on the sidelines of a gathering of the larger Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) on Tuesday, reports said.
The emergency meeting was called in response to the recent escalation in Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which raised fears that Israel may be trying to destroy the Palestinian Authority led by President Yasser Arafat.
Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa said in a statement published in Egyptian newspapers Saturday that the league would convene a consultative meeting on the sidelines of the OIC meeting. Consultative meetings do not have decision-making powers in league procedure.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Maher said the meeting was not postponed because of disagreement, but for procedural mistakes.
He said Arab foreign minister meetings should be held at the league's headquarters in Cairo.
The Palestinian representative to the Arab League, Mohammed Sobeih, said the Palestinians had hoped an emergency meeting of the league would strongly endorse Arafat as the only legitimate leader of the Palestinian people.
"(The Arab ministers) should also defend the Palestinian Authority against any attempt to undermine its position and legitimacy," he told the AP.
During the week, Jordan called for a meeting of the 10 league ministers on the committee to support the Palestinians. However, Syria proposed a full meeting to allow all Arab governments to deal with the Israeli aggression and threats against the Palestinians.
Earlier this week, Mubarak sent Maher to Israel and the Palestinian territories in a bid to defuse tensions between the two sides, but Maher returned home describing his mission as a failure.

A Harsher Reality
The yellowed curtain was illuminated by the streetlight outside, its fleeting movements were almost poetic as the draft swept it from the glass it usually clung to. Alexis watched as the wind dropped it every now and again, only to pick it back up at the last minute and send it sweeping above him once more.
Like wings...
Some part of him held a bitter resentment towards that insignificant stretch of fabric. As though having that one object to blame for all his misfortunes would somehow break his chain of bad luck. Alexis pondered, as he often did, about the existence of karma. Was there some unforgivable sin he had committed in a previous life? Something awful that made him deserving of the life he was encumbered with?
If only I knew.
Alexis fell asleep with the question on his lips and awoke with it unanswered still. A shrill sound disturbed his solemn mood and caused him to rub his head irritably. Trudging towards the door in a robotic fashion Alexis didn't bother to wipe the sleep from his eyes or worry about the stubble on his chin. He could not hope for interesting results as he opened the door; it was probably just a parcel that hadn't yet made it to its destination.
Alexis sighed and relieved the buzzer of its duty.

This is the definitive biography of the Arsenal, France and Barcelona legend. Thierry Henry - gifted, charismatic and a world class footballer of the highest order - has passed into Arsenal legend as the hero of Arsene Wenger's killer team that finally ended Manchester United's domination, winning two league titles and three FA cups. He was also instrumental in France's World Cup and European Cup glories in 1998 and 2000 and continued his incredibly successful career at Barcelona by winning the treble in his first season. But now in the autumn of his career, Thierry's crown has slipped - playing out his days in an obscure American team and disgracing himself and his team at a dismal World Cup 2010. So who is the real Thierry Henry? Drawing from countless interviews, as well as his own observations over Henry's entire career, award-winning author Philippe Auclair has produced the most complete portrait of the Arsenal hero ever to be written. With exclusive access to Henry's inner circle, Auclair has reached this most elusive and closed of footballers to produce a biography as raw, shocking and though-provoking as it is celebratory of Henry's outstanding flair and talent.show more

THE hills are alive with the sound of horsepower!
My Chevrolet Cruze and I are off to Austria, home of strudel, Schwarzenegger
and The Sound of Music, for rounds 11 and 12 of the FIA World Touring Car
It's the halfway point of the season and I've got a 30-point gap to overhaul
to claim the world championship.
However, my team-mate Yvan Muller did just that last year, so I know it's
possible, and a victory in Salzburg would be a great start.
Flights out there have been difficult to get hold of, thanks to the fans –
unfortunately it's fans of Chelsea football club, not mine!
They've cottoned on to the fact that Munich isn't too hard to get to from
Austria and are flying out en masse at similar times to us ahead of the
Champions League final. It should make for an interesting journey out.
It's been a crazy, crazy week in the build-up to Austria. Last weekend I was
at the IRC Rally in Corsica, which was amazing: I drove the pace car for a
few of the event's stages, and had a great time.
I had a few pointers from Andreas Mikkelsen, the 2011 IRC champion and a
familiar face to SunSport readers with The Sun backed Skoda UK team.
It was great to see him race, and I'm sure he can go on to retain his IRC
crown this year.
I also bumped into Toshi Arai, a respected Japanese racer who I met last year
when he raced a Chevrolet in the WTCC at Suzuka.
I was a natural in the rally car: but I'm always fast on four wheels. Soon
I'll be quick on two wheels too.
When I got back to the UK from Corsica, a shiny new Ducati Monster was waiting
for me. It was my prize for posting the most fastest laps in the WTCC last
I was like a big kid when I got my hands on it: I just sat on the bike and
revved the engine as much as I could and it made one hell of a noise!
I'm planning to get my bike licence at some point towards the end of the year:
there's no way I'm learning before my wedding, her indoors won't allow it.
Instead I'll be driving my new Chevrolet Camaro. Boy is she a beauty. I went
to the dealership with my dad and we both fell in love with the car
Aside from that, as I'm taking to the ring this weekend the
Salzburgring I've kept up my training with boxer Pat McAleese.
He's off to America to get married soon, so I won't see him for a few weeks.
I'm going to make sure I keep up my training though: the last thing you want
to do is upset a boxer!
As for the trip to Salzburg, it'll be the usual prep.
We'll cycle round the circuit a few times to get a feel for the layout, but we
know that it's a high-speed circuit that will reward the Cruze's engine
Hopefully I can add another chapter to the Chevy success story by claiming
important points for my title challenge.
As Austria's most famous son once said: 'I'll be back.' Back next week that
is, to let you know how I got on.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - July 12, 1985, New Braunfels, Texas Lebanon ID orders their BEIRUT, lebanon (AP) — The state radio said today the government has ordered the prosecution of the alleged hijackers of TWA Flight 847, who killed a U.S. Navy diver and held 39 Americans hostages for 17 days. The radio also identified them for the first time. It said the government had told judicial officials in the district of Mount lebanon, who are responsible for the Beirut International Airport, to prosecute the sky pirates. It identified them as Shiite Moslems Ah Atwi, Ah Younis and Ahmed Gharbieh but said it had no further information about them. The radio did not specify whether warrants had been issued for the trio's arrest or whether they were in custody. 'The names were referred I to authorities I as a prelude to prosecuting them and to take adequate legal procedures against them," the radio said, without naming its sources. A police spokesman said of the radio report, We don't have any information. I can't say yes; I can't say no." Mount lebanon Prosecutor-General Maurice Khawam told reporters in Christian East Beirut after a meeting Wednesday with President Amin Gemayel that his office "will move against the TWA hijackers." A leader of the Shute Moslem Amal militia, which negotiated for the hijackers and said it shared their goal of gaining the release of Shutes held in Israel, has said Amal chief Nabih Berri does not oppose putting the gunmen on trial. Akef Baidar. Amal Politburo head and No. 2 man under Berri, told The Associated Press on July 6 that Berri is not against having a trial But he said Amal could not's hijackers; prosecution identify them because it dealt only with their leaders. "Mr. Berri will not be against... justice," Haidar said. Berri also is I Lebanon's minister of justice. The hijackers shot dead U.S. Navy Petty Officer Robert Stethem and dumped his body on the tarmac of Beirut International Airport, pistol whipped and punched other passengers and vowed to kill the others unless more than 700 lebanese prisoners were freed by Israel. They held 39 American hostages in Beirut for 17 days before agreeing to free them under pressure from Syria, the main power broker in lebanon. Atwi was the hijacker arrested at Athens airport before boarding TWA flight 847 June 14. The Boeing 727 was hijacked shortly after take off from the Greek capital to Rome by two other gunmen. President Reagan has vowed that the United States will do everything it can to bring the original hijackers to justice for the slaving of the Navy diver. The sky pirates released more than IOO of the 153 passengers and crew members aboard in the first two days of the 17-day drama as the plane shuttled 8,500 miles between Beirut and Algiers. On the last of three landings in Beirut 37 passengers and crew members were still being held June 16. But an ailing man was freed, the other passengers were taken under guard to Beirut hideouts by Amal Shiite Moslem militiamen and the thiee remaining crewmen were held on the airplane The last 39 American hostages were freed June 30 after mediation efforts by Syria's President Hafez Assad and Lebanon's Justice Minister Nabih Berri, who heads the Shiite Moslem Amal militia — largest of the warring irregular armies Copter crash kills 4 Marines TOKYO (AP) A US Marine helicopter slammed into a hillside on Okinawa island today, killing four crew members w ho w ere on a routine training mission, a Marine Corps spokesman said The cause of the accident was not known, said spokesman (.'apt Dan Trout It was the second crash of a Japan-based Marine CH-531) "Sea Stallion" helicopter in three months An eyewitness reported the helicopter was "roaring and spouting gray smoke" before it exploded in flight and plunged into a hillside, said local polite spokesman Masahiro Nakamura Police rescuers earlier reported finding the charred bodies of three crew members. Nakamura said Trout said the four were members of a rotating squad, which means they have family and relatives in the United States." He declined to name the victims pending notification of their relatives, but said they were based rn the West Coast of the United State- The helicopter crashed at about I 15 p rn 12; 15 a rn EDT I over part of Camp Butler, the main Marine facility on the southern Japanese island Trout said the accident site was about 44 miles northeast of Naha, Okinawa's capital, which is 1,000 miles southwest of Tokyo. The aircraft was stationed at the Futenma Marine Corps base, which is near Na ha. Another CH-53 helicopter from a different squadron crashed into the sea off southern Japan on May 6, killing 17 Marines, while enroute from Futenma Marine Base. Airport reputations on the line WASHINGTON (AP) — Since the hijacking of TWA Flight 847 the government has stepped up its search for security gaps at foreign airports, but the Reagan administration and Congress are at sharp odds over whether the findings should be revealed to travelers. The House has approved two measures — one of them unanimously — that would require disclosure to the traveling public of airports with substandard security. A Senate committee is to vote on similar legislation next week. But the Reagan administration is maneuvering to head off the legislation, arguing that a requirement to disclose lax airports to the public might hamper diplomatic efforts to get security at those airport improved — or worse, provide directions to terrorists. "Any legislation that forces our government to deal with a foreign government in a prescribed public manner would be counterproductive to the international cooperation that ... is necessary to deal effectively with terrorism," Transportation Secretary Elizabeth Dole argued in a letter this week to the chairman of the House aviation subcommittee. "This includes requiring our government to make a public determination of the adequacy of .security measures at foreign airports." she continued. The subcommittee chairman. Rep. Norman Mineta, D-Calif., made the letter public Thursday and questioned why travelers should not know whether an airport they are flying to has security problems. Mineta sponsored the measure, which has cleared the House and is before the Senate. It would require deficient airports to improve security within 120 days or be listed on the back of airline tickets and at all U.S. airports as not meeting security standards. Matt Scocozza, assistant secretary of transportation for international affairs, said there is concern within the administration such a publication of substandard airports would provide "a road map'' for terrorists that can be used to target certain airports. "One of our concerns is the publication of lists," he told Mineta at a hearing Thursday. But the congressman wasn't impressed. "A professional terrorist already is going to know (an airport's security reputation),'' he responded. Administration officials also are concerned that if they are forced to publish lists of airports where security needs to be improved it will cause diplomatic problems that could hinder talks aimed at improving security at the airports in question. Those advocating disclosure of the airports respond that the threat of being singled out as a security risk might, in fact, spur government to making security improvements for fear of losing U.S. tourist traffic. Questions concerning how much air travelers should know about airport security emerged almost immediately after the TWA hijacking when it was revealed that U.S. officials had known for months — some say even years — about serious -security problems at the Athens airport where the hijackers boarded TWA Hight 847 a month ago. mciiaiamiaiiK BSL Distributing Co. 1270 W.

The Kelso School District has established a Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee (BPAC). The purpose of this committee is to hear from the parents of our bilingual students and provide opportunities to discuss and provide input on the ELL program.
The Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee meetings are scheduled three times during the year. The team will create goals, identify student and parent needs, discuss ELL programs and review the district's annual ELL grant application.
March 23rd 5:00-6:00 PM @ Wallace Elementary School Library, 410 Elm Street
May 23rd 5:00-6:00 PM @ Coweeman Middle School Library, 2000 Allen Street
Click HERE for more details!
English Language Learners (ELLs) participate fully in the Kelso School District curriculum through language and academic support from highly-qualified ELL staff members. Upon registration, students who first spoke a language other than English are given the Washington English Language Proficiency Assessment (WELPA) to determine their initial language proficiency level. The District provides ELLs with varying levels of support based on their language proficiency level and grade level.
For Interpretive Support: Please contact Lori Paul

There are about 100,000 English language learners (ELLs) in Washington — 9 percent of our total K-12 student population. Because knowing and using English well is necessary for success in school, it is important that students who need additional help learning English get it.
Washington has joined a group of 11 states to develop an assessment system to address their needs. The English Language Proficiency Assessment for the 21st Century (ELPA21) is a system based on the new English Language Proficiency Standards our state recently adopted. The new tests will measure the language proficiency of ELLs as they progress through their K-12 education and achieve college and career readiness.
ELPA 21 Assessment
The new ELP standards highlight the critical language, knowledge about language, and skills using language that are in college-and-career-ready standards and that are necessary for English language learners (ELLs) to be successful in schools. The standards also include correspondences to the Practices and Standards identified in the Common Core State Standards and in the Next Generation Science Standards.

Defence chiefs were today announcing that 1,600 posts in the Navy will be slashed and 1,000 in the Army in September.
It has already been decided that just over 1,000 RAF jobs are going in the autumn. Soldiers, sailors and aircrew currently on operations on the frontline could be among those sacked. The Gurkha regiment is set to lose men and about half of the Army job cuts are expected to be compulsory. A number of Sea Harrier pilots will also lose their jobs after the planes were axed from the fleet.
Around 100 officers in both the Army and the Navy, many middle-ranking but at least up to brigadier, will be made redundant. "It is a sad day for us that so many brave men and women are going on to other things," said General Sir David Richards, the head of the armed forces.
He insisted that none of the cuts, which will see 17,000 posts, including about 11,000 redundancies over four years, "will compromise the security of the state". Defence sources also insisted the cuts would have no impact on current operations.
But the head of the RAF, Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Dalton, warned that the service would need a funding boost within years to maintain present levels of operations. "On current planning, we can continue in Afghanistan, the Falklands and Libya with what we have got," he said. "But that does bring you nearer the point that you have just about exhausted the bag."
Labour stressed that forces' families would want a guarantee that servicemen and women currently on operations would not face the sack.
Shadow defence secretary Jim Murphy said: "On the day the Air Chief Marshal warns about the pressures being placed on the RAF, and when our forces are being asked to do more overseas, the country will want the Government to explain the impact of their cuts. Our forces deserve better. The Government must pause and think again."
The Lib-Con coalition sought to pin the blame for the "deeply regrettable" cuts on the "dire economic situation and appalling deficit in the defence budget" inherited from Labour.
Andrew Robathan, minister for defence personnel, welfare and veterans, added: "The redundancies that we are making have been designed to ensure that we have the flexible and balanced forces we need for the future. On the dates redundancy notices are issued no personnel preparing for, deployed on, or returning from combat operations and in receipt of post-tour leave will be made compulsorily redundant."
Military personnel leaving will be offered resettlement packages including training, as well as redundancy payments. Overall, the Army will be cut by 7,000 and the Navy and RAF by 5,000 each. Although some losses will be through "natural wastage" such as retirements, 11,000 staff are expected to be made redundant as part of moves to save nearly £5 billion over four years.
The number of compulsory redundancies will depend on how many people want to leave voluntarily.
The RAF spelled out its plans for 2,700 lay-offs last month, admitting that some were likely to be compulsory. Today the Army and Navy were announcing the process under which they will make around 5,000 and 3,300 redundancies respectively. In the RAF, up to 170 trainee pilots are to be made redundant but no qualified pilot will be axed in the initial round. Another 200 weapons system officers and operators will be lost, along with 529 ground crew.
Two entire Tornado squadrons will be disbanded in June, although their personnel will not automatically be made redundant.

Pohatcong Teachers Agree to Pay Cuts
There are 8 comments on the WFMZ story from May 25, 2010, titled Pohatcong Teachers Agree to Pay Cuts. In it, WFMZ reports that:There won't be any squabbling over raises in New Jersey's Pohatcong School District.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at WFMZ.
#1 May 25, 2010
School board and the teachers did their part to keep the taxes in Pohat from going up. Too bad the TOWN COUNCIL couldn't be as diligent. Taxes in Pohat will increase 8.4% because of the lack of financial responsibility on part of town council. Now over $1.00 per $100 assessed value it is the highest in the area...and you guys wonder why there are over 80 homes for sale or in foreclosure here in Pohatcong? It's not our teachers!!!
#2 May 25, 2010
You call the teachers taking a 3% raise instead of a 4.5% a no increase in pay. You are in real trouble in Pohat ? First thing you should do is take a short Math course and find out what 3% means for teachers making how much ?$75,000 or more. Then times it by .03 %.
Then head to a council meeting and find out the figures you're getting ripped from . Add the both together and find out why we're heading for a revolution.
#3 May 25, 2010
If we ever come out of this depression the teachers will be first in line for the make-up raises they so gracefully gave back to the taxpayer.
I can't wait and almost hope this country falls flat on it's face and the real patriot can clean up the mess that was left behind. I gained some very nice neighbors from Jersey and Brooklyn and they moved here because it's a schittwhole waiting for more poiticians to dump in it.
#4 May 25, 2010
The only thing our legislators in Pa deserve from the taxpayer is a short death from a shorter rope.
The abuse of our money and corruption of the state requires all the patriots to make sure this happens as quickly as possible . A couple of shots whizzing by their heads will get the attention of all of them and the top cops goon squad to supress the coming revolution. When they realize they all can die for the mess they made they won't have enough left for all the grand layaway salutes for their fallen. Meabwhile we all could care less if we're cremated in a pile like a stack of wood. Dead is the same place and you won't neet anyone paying homage for stupid.
#5 May 26, 2010
We live in a world filled with rocket scientists. The problem eminates from the politicians who are padding their pockets. Jump on the easy targets..teachers. I just don't understand the hate. Yes there are bad teachers, just like bad in all walks of life. So rather than fix our political woes, we elect bozos who stay true to their cronies and punish the rest of us. People of NJ stay put, fight the political corruptness, and make the rich, the insurance companies and pharmaceutical industry be accountable to us, the taxpayer who is carrying the freight.
#6 May 26, 2010
Are you joking? They chop the aides' benefits - the lowest paid employees of all, don't touch the administration and get back 1.5% from the teachers who will still be receiving a raise anyway. This is the worst recession seen in a long time. How about dumping an administrator or some extra secretaries? Wait - what about the special ed teachers who hang around classrooms acting like aides for 80,000 grand a year. With all these educators hanging around the kids you'd think their test scores would be better.
#7 May 26, 2010
Dumping an adminstrator and a few secretaries is tantamount to an obese person drinking a diet soda with their McDonald value meal. Thats simply not going to cut enough fat off the budget.
#8 May 26, 2010
I agree totally Marge that elected officials and (who you know) State workers should be picked on as equally as teachers. It doesn't take rocket science to figure out the greed coming at us and will get worse as the teachers funds are depleted. How many homes are up for foreclosure that the bank doesn't want or have to up keep to sell them at a loss . 800, next year it could be 1600?
It still doesn't remove the fact that next years teacher contract will be reduced from a 4.5 % raise to 3.00%. That leaves next years teacher that makes $80,000 a year getting a $2,400. raise and a pat on the back for their generosity, while the general public no matter what job you have if any has to work all year and maybe time his/her vacation to satisfy the company store and it may not be a paid vacation?
180 days of work a year , the highest paid for less hours worked teachers and you don't understand the hate. It isn't really hating the teachers, it's the Union and legislators setting them out on the target range ?

New Delhi, Nov 19 (UNI) India today hoped that its candidate, Kamlesh Sharma, would get elected as the next Secretary General of the Commonwealth without any hurdles.
Mr Sharma, India's High Commissioner to Britain, is pitted against Maltese Foreign Minister Michael Frendo and an independent candidate Dr Mohan Kaul, an insider who heads the Commonwealth Business Council (CBC).
''We are hopeful that Mr Sharma would sail through. However, efforts are being made to evolve consensus on the election of Mr Sharma. If he gets elected, he will be the first Asian to occupy this coveted post,'' Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon said.
Dr Kaul was recently in Delhi to muster support for his candidature and met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and other leaders in this regard. He was told that he had approached the government too late.
Elections to the 53-member world body are being held at Kampala (Uganda) this week.

Eddie Contento
Eddie Contento belongs on the road.
The 24-year-old graphic designer realized it while traveling around the US with his then-girlfriend, bouncing from state to state every month. She eventually wanted to settle down and stay in one place for a while, but he had already fallen in love with his nomadic lifestyle.
He set his sights on working and traveling internationally, and now, he runs his own business on the road as he visits everywhere from Serbia to Prague. Here's how he does it:
Originally from New Jersey, Contento has been traveling since he graduated from high school, working out of cafés and coworking spaces across the country.
"Working remotely is the only way I know how to work," he said. "I don't think I would ever want to work out of an office."
However, his business partner is in Philadelphia, and managing the time difference abroad can be tricky. "I'm bouncing between time zones and developing some kind of insomnia," he said.
The main reason he's been able to work remotely for so long is that he's tech savvy.
"I'm the one people ask questions to. I always try to have the most up-to-date devices and software if I can afford it," Contento said. "I spend more on electronics than I should."
Contento is the vice president of Chop Dawg, a design development agency that creates logos and websites for startups. The nature of his job allows him to create a flexible schedule. He schedules meetings with clients early in the week, and then for the rest of the week he either explores during the day and works at night, or vice versa.
He's currently on the road for an entire year.
Contento signed up for Remote Year, a program that invites 75 professionals to travel to 12 different countries. He set off for a yearlong adventure, which he documents on his vlog.
"I thrive in this environment," he said. "I'm surrounded by brilliant people that push me. We have similar goals and ambitions — whether it's to see the world or grow our businesses — and it's nice to do them together."
He's the youngest in the program. One friend in his group is 30 years older than him. "There is no age in Remote Year," he said. "Just personalities."
There have been a few rough patches.
Contento was bedridden for more than a week in Prague after a bout of salmonella poisoning.
"I was suffering from FOMO" — fear of missing out — "to the max," he said. "People were doing things and going out while I was locked in my room in the dark. For a moment I wanted to go home, but then I snapped out of it."
His current trip has taken him to Prague, Belgrade, London, and Lisbon.
Next, he'll visit Argentina.
He's capturing it all on video in a vlog where he talks about the ups and downs — like the salmonella poisoning — and shows footage from each city. He even documents a surprise visit home.
Contento says travel has changed his perspective on the world.
"I'm from a little bubble in South Jersey," he said. "There are so many things to learn, experience, and do in the world. Now that I've experienced some of it, I want to do all of it."
He won't stop traveling when the program ends.
"I can't be in one place for more than a month," he said. "I don't want to be stagnant."
He hopes to go to Italy, where his grandmother is from, as well as Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and a dozen other places. "I want to go to the moon."

Forex: USD/JPY is back above 97.30
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - USD/JPY has risen around 60 pips last two hours from 96.80 to 97.38 and currently the pair is trading around 98.25/35 after falling 0.59% so far today from 97.87 opening price action.
Yesterday, the pair fell 0.18% from opening price at 98.04, reaching 98.43 as highest and 97.63 as lowest, to close the day at 97.87. Along the week, USD/JPY has fallen 2.05% from Monday opening price action at 99.32 to the currently 97.30.
Valeria Bednarik, FXstreet.com collaborator, says: Break of the daily ascendant trend line triggered a major sell off in the pair that reached almost the 61.8% of the daily Fibonacci rally we have been following, form 93.54 to 101.44. So far, the pair rebound around that zone and attempt a small upside recovery, that could extend enough to complete the pullback to the broken line now around 97.60. Bigger time frames are exhausted, supporting a correction. Break under the 96.50/60 area could send the pair to 94.60 in the term, next mayor support.
Bednarik provides us with her levels: Support levels: 96.60 96.20 95.80. Resistance levels: 97.30 97.57 98.00.

Comments about Women's Beach Living Reversible Bikini Bottoms:
Quite a nice looking bikini brief, but I tried two pairs in different sizes and both had the same problem. Because the bikini is reversible it is made with two different fabrics. Where these meet at the seam whichever fabric is worn facing out seems to be baggy - especially along the bottom of the hips - and is not a flattering look! (It is a different construction to a lined bikini where the outer material would be tightly folded and sewn over the seam of the lining.) I think the problem is trying to join two very stretchy fabrics with no visible seam.

Part EighteenMature
That lunchtime, after the eldest of Trish's group flicks a glance at me again, they go quiet in a sort of group huddle. They all keep shooting glances at me, except Trish, who watched me through her hair.
After a brief discussion, one of them gets up and walks over.
"Hey," he says. "It's Lola, right?"
I nod. "Hi."
"I'm Judo. You wanna sit with us?"
"I don't think I should," I say. "I'm not related to you guys."
He shrugs. "Neither's Trish. C'mon, it's gotta be better than sitting here on your own."
I'm uncertain, but I agree because he has a point.
He leads me over and tells me to sit where he was, and he takes a place next to Trish.
"Right, you probably know this one's Beatrice," he ruffles her hair and she shoves him off.
"It's Trish," she corrects him, kissing her teeth. Then she turns to me. "Oh, and thanks, by the way, for doing me in the other week. Now I've got this douche on my back twenty-four seven.
"Ignore her," Judo says. "She holds grudges. She'll be fine by Monday. And now you're here, maybe she'll actually join in the conversation rather than jut staring at you."
Trish folds her arms and kisses her teeth again, avoiding my eyes.
"Excuse Beatrice. And here's a genuine thanks. She doesn't seem to understand when people give one about her." This is the older one, who yelled at Trish. "I'm Daniel. Nice to meet you, Lola."
After that, it takes about ten minutes to introduce the other three, because they all have about fifty comments to make about each other.
The youngest is Tobias, he's twelve. They all seem to think he's a bit stupid, making comments like 'you're twelve, you don't know'.
Next is Seamus, who's fourteen. He's the one who Trish threw the pencils at, and they all say he's a nerd.
Turn out, Tris is fifteen, like me. She just looks a bit young for her age. The boys say she's normally great to be around, but turns into a three-year-old when she's mardy.
Judo's also fifteen, and seems to have a lo of questions.
Evan is sixteen, almost seventeen, and is usually the peace-keeper. However, Seamus forces him to admit that he gets violent when he's angry.
Then there's Daniel, who everyone hesitantly admits is like a father figure to them. He's eighteen. Seb's age. But they say he's a bit antisocial.
Of the boys, Evan and Seamus are brothers. So are Daniel and Judo. Tobias is a cousin to all of them, and they all share the surname of Angler.
Trish is with them because she knew Daniel before she moved to this school. Her surname is Manuel.
