Posted on 04/20/2011 6:35:07 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Gold futures rallied above $1,500 an ounce on Wednesday, as the U.S. dollar fell sharply and investors bought the precious metal as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.
Gold for June delivery /quotes/comstock/21e!f:gc\m11 GCM11 +0.47% rose $10.70 to $1,505.80 an ounce in electronic trading on Globex.
The weaker dollar, European sovereign-debt worries and Standard & Poors move Monday to cut its outlook on the U.S. sovereign rating have all spurred appetite for gold.
In the currency markets on Wednesday, the greenback posted steep losses as the euro /quotes/comstock/21o!x:seurusd EURUSD +1.25% rallied 1.1% to $1.4498. The dollar index /quotes/comstock/11j!i:dxy0 DXY -0.85% , which tracks the performance of the greenback against a basket of rival currencies, dropped 0.8% to 74.490. Read more on the dollars retreat.
Gold and the dollar tend to move in opposite directions. A lower dollar makes gold cheaper and therefore more attractive for holders of other currencies.
Gold prices came under significant selling pressure at the start of the year on the back of a run of positive macroeconomic data, analysts at Barclays Capital said in a research note.
Rising geopolitical tensions across the Middle East and North Africa, uncertainty following the events in Japan, fears of higher inflation, a weaker dollar, the recent resurfacing of European sovereign debt risk, and now heightened concerns over the U.S. have outweighed the recent rate hikes to drive prices to fresh highs, the analysts said.
Prices of other metals also rose on Wednesday, with silver continuing to hover at 31-year highs. Silver for May delivery /quotes/comstock/21e!f1:si\k11 SIK11 +1.77% added 63 cents, or 1.4%, to $44.55 an ounce.
May copper /quotes/comstock/21e!f1:hg\k11 HGK11 +1.38% gained 7 cents, or 1.6%, to $4.30 a pound.

All because when you print unlimited paper it becomes worthless.
I expect a 200 or so point DJIA rally on phoney baloney sales figures. CNN is blasting that party line this morning.
"Comsumer spending increases!"
(because the price of everything is climbing)
Copper at 29 cents/oz. Is a copper dollar coming?
The rise in the price of metals, be it Gold, Silver or Copper tells us that there is something wrong with our MONETARY POLICY.
I have often wondered if Obama appreciates the impact on his own legacy of the collapsing dollar. I don't think he does and I have a feeling he is a lost cause.
To Obama, Ideology trumps Reality. As Reagan says "They know so many things that ain't so"
The futures market yesterday was putting the value of the dollar below a 1,500th of an ounce of gold on what the Bloomberg News attributed to concerns about escalating U.S. debt.
Theres a lot of blame to go around in respect of the debt, including to Congress, which has the constitutional authority to regulate the value of the dollar. But it is not the portraits of the leaders of Congress that are put on Americas currency. The portraits that normally go on our currency are portraits of the presidents,* whose treasury secretary signs the notes we use.
Yet as president, Mr. Obama has never given us a major speech in which he talks about how he views money or what he thinks of what has become of the dollar during his presidency.
The value of the greenback has, for the record, fallen more than 43% from the 853rd of an ounce of gold that it was worth at the end of the day on when Obama took his oath of office.
That is less of a decline than the 68% slide in the value of the dollar under George W. Bush. But Bush was in office eight years. The steepness of the plunge under Mr. Obama is breathtaking.
So, what are we hearing from the Messiah nowadays ?
Obama he offers a long discredited theory, saying, There are some benefits from the dollars decline, obviously it is just making our exports cheaper and we needed to get some balance in our trade deficits.
He mentions nothing about Obamacare ( which will balloon spending ), HIS OWN BUDGET with its $16. TRILLION deficit, his making it exteremely difficult for us to exploit our own energy resources, and his insistence on raising our debt ceiling.
He has done nothing but increase spending, while making it ever harder for our energy producers who exploit our own onshore and offshore oil reserves. The collapsing dollar has done nothing for our trade deficit, and the costs for food and fuel are soaring. It took a revolt by the Tea Party movement to spur any kind of action on deficits.

Interview: Boundaries Don't Matter to Keith Urban on 'Ripcord'
Keith Urban has already proven that he isn't afraid to take chances. But his latest album, Ripcord, takes the country star to new heights as a singer, writer, producer and artist. From the EDM-influenced "Wasted Time" to the urban-sounding "Sun Don't Let Me Down," featuring rapper Pitbull, and the bluesy "Blue Ain't Your Color," Urban explores new levels of creativity on the 13-track record … and he trusts that his fans will join him on the journey.
"I just have to make music and just create. Make music that is very fluid and reactionary to how I'm feeling and what I'm motivated by at any given time," Urban tells The Boot. "This record, probably more than any other record, was very much that, where I certainly wasn't second-guessing anything, and I was much more willing to just try any idea that came to my head, as crazy as it might be. You can always pull back, but I just wanted to go where the idea and the muse, where the energies, wanted to go. If they wanted to go in a certain direction, I was going to go there."
The recording process for Ripcord took almost a year and a half, with Urban both reaching out to and collaborating with writers and producers such as Jeff Bhasker, Samuel Tyler Johnson, Greg Wells, K-Kov, Nile Rodgers and busbee, among others.
"I wanted to work with a lot of people I had never worked with before. Not exclusively, in the sense where, I wanted to work with familiar people as well but sort of start with a lot of new writers and producers. Sometimes they're one in the same," Urban explains. "I love when you can write with the producers and produce with the writers … It was really just seeking out new energies, new ways of writing songs, new ways of being in the studio."
Urban is joined by his good friend Carrie Underwood on the beat-driven "The Fighter," which Urban and busbee co-wrote and produced. For Urban, the song is as much about showcasing Underwood's talents as it is about illustrating his own.
"I love her voice. She's really, really talented, and she's just really starting to discover what she can do as a singer, so I was really happy she wanted to sing on this song," Urban gushes of Underwood. "It's pretty simple, too … It's not a traditional duet, where there's a lot for the girl to sing, but it's an important role in the song. It was written with that idea of a simple conversation, simplistic conversation, a very simple question-and-answer scenario in the chorus, which really appealed to me."
On the country-sounding "Boy Gets a Truck" and "Worry 'Bout Nothin'," meanwhile, Urban returns to his roots; both songs were co-produced by Urban and his longtime producer Dann Huff. No genre was off-limits on Ripcord, and Urban says that this record is the first on which he fully trusted his instincts, without imposing any restrictions.
"No one knows what I was trying to do except me, so I'm the only one that's going to be frustrated that all the things aren't what I was trying to do," he muses. "This record is the first one in a long, long, long time that I felt really satiated artistically, incredibly, by the end result."
In some cases, songs on Ripcord were influenced by artists, songs and albums Urban had never heard of: Thanks to the song-recognition smartphone app Shazam, which can identify a song by listening to a snippet of it, that music became the bed for Urban's new project.
"Maybe I like the sound of the kick drum on the song, or I like the sound of the guitar or the vocal affect or the way they stacked the harmonies — it could be anything, a million things in the whole song itself, in the recording," Urban shares. "I'm the guy standing on the table in a restaurant, trying to hold my phone up to the speaker; I don't care, I'm going to tag this song. That, I think, has had a massive influence on coming into making records to me, because it's given me so many more colors to paint with and liberated a lot of the creative process for me."
"This record is the first one in a long, long, long time that I felt really satiated artistically, incredibly, by the end result … I really haven't thought in terms of parameters at all with this record, but I feel very sure that I've stayed true to myself musically, and that's really the journey for me."
Urban cast the deciding vote for every factor of Ripcord, placing particular emphasis on not only which of the 25 songs he recorded made the final cut, but in which order they were placed on the album.
"Sequence is always important on a new record, for anybody who still wants to listen to a record from beginning to end," Urban notes. "The album title helped a little bit, gave me a bit of a sense of which songs would be Ripcord. But then I thought, I'm just going to put it together like a setlist for a gig: 'Okay, I'm doing a show tonight, I can only do 13 songs. What do I want to start with, what do I want to finish with, what do I want to do in the middle, and how do I thread everything through and say everything I want to say, play everything I want to play, within 13 songs?' And that's how I did it."
Ultimately, it's this, his ninth studio album (10th if you include his disc with his band the Ranch), that finally offered Urban the freedom to break wide open the creative gates, which have been slowly budging with each of his previous projects.
"I really haven't thought in terms of parameters at all with this record, but I feel very sure that I've stayed true to myself musically, and that's really the journey for me," he acknowledges. "I want to go out to the edges of where I can go, before I lose myself and then it just doesn't sound like me anymore."
Ripcord is available on Amazon and iTunes.

Oven And Fridge Recommendations For Legal Home-Based Bakery?
Business By HannahsMomi Updated 3 Apr 2012 , 3:46pm by cai0311
I am in the process of renovating my basement into a legal cake bakery business. I need to buy an oven and a refrigerator. Does anyone have any recommendations for either? I need something economical that works great! I'm trying to pay for everything without getting financing!
really? no suggestions?
This is what a google search turned up. Maybe you'll find some info to help you decide:
I just posted a couple of days ago about the new gas convection stove I got. Love it. Kenmore. Also currently on sale.
thank you both for your responses! I'm just trying to make the best purchases I can with my money without spending too much! I'm trying not to get financing which is proving to be difficult!
I have a convection oven at home that has the option of regular bake and convection bake. If I select convection bake I punch in the temp I would use for regular baking and the temp is automatically adjusted (lower by 25 degrees).
When I had just a regular oven I baked my cakes at 325 degrees. With the convection bake I punch in 375 degrees, the temp is automatically lowered to 350 degrees, and I get the same results (moist cake, no "hump"). I have NOT noticed the baking time being shorter using the convection oven but I can bake so much more at a time by using all 3 racks in the oven.
I can bake an entire 4 tier cake (2 12" round, 2 10" round, 2 8" round, 2 6" round) at the same time. Takes about 1 1/2 hours (baking and cooling time).
The main thing you have to look for is a true convection oven. Some ovens call themselves convection ovens because they have a fan, but they are not really convection ovens. The oven I have has a third heating element behind the fan so the air that is blown into the oven is the same temp as the oven. This is really the only way the entire oven is the same temp causing even baking.
The only negative I have is sometimes (not every time) the top the cake gets hard, almost crust like. I trim the top off of each cake so it doesn't matter and it doesn't affect the rest of the cake - just the top. I think it is because of the fan blowing on it but I am not sure. Like I said, it is only sometimes this happens.
Cupcaks, cookies and pies bake wonderfully too.
There is also a convection roast setting that makes the beautiful crispy skin on turkey.
I own the Samsung FTQ38LWGX. I bought it from Lowes for $1400 including installation.
As for the fridge:
I have a normal side by side fridge/freezer in my kitchen. I also have on of those double door refrigerators with the freezer on the bottom in my basement. The one in the basement is for cakes only. I love it because I can fit a cake in it on a 20" round (or square) cake drum in it.

Who knows? Maybe Justin Bieber will be at the center of a landmark case that finally puts the evil paparazzi in their place.
TMZ reports that the California Highway Patrol is recommending to the L.A. District Attorney that the photographer who led the recent car chase after Bieber in his sports car be prosecuted under a California anti-paparazzi law.
If the photographer is charged, he would be the first under the new law.
Sources tell the site that the CHP is also recommending a reckless driving charge against the photographer.
Bieber was recently involved in a high speed chase on L.A. freeways, during which several paparazzi pursued him. The singer was given a speeding ticket.

why would Dunn even dive for that? dumbass.
BS. He couldn't get behind it and stopping and playing it off the wall would have done nothing. OFers have a split second to make a decision on that play. He was a half a step from being able to make that catch. If he would have stopped running and simply let it roll to the corner of the wall, people would be nagging that he was loafing. He go up and got the ball in time to have a play on the pitcher running.
if Dunn fields the ball off the wall, Volstad doesn't score. period.
Walk him, Volstad. Everybody knows "sacks juiced" with 1 out is like Kryptonite to the Nats!

Review by How to be freaky
"A rush that never stops till the game is over"
Black has been a game that I've been waiting for a long time. Since it was announced, I've been eagerly awaiting this gritty, fast paced FPS. And how has it panned out? Well, pretty good, in my opinion.
I'll first start of with the graphics. The graphics are quite possibly the best for the PS2. It really just shows that the Next Generation of gaming might be coming a bit too early, as PS2 games are still looking better and better, such as this, Resident Evil 4, God of War, and Shadow of the Colossus. They may not have HDR lighting, or HD compatible, but does anyone really care about any of this, once you get deep into a firefight? Because I guarantee you, when you have 7 enemies coming at you from all sides, with stacks and barrels exploding all around you, you are NOT going to notice that this isn't HD whatever.
As for the story...well, what story? Okay, there is a "story" here, but it's barely there, and it's not really interesting enough to warrant really paying attention in the cut scenes. This is another thing entirely. The cut scenes are all filmed with live actors, and such. But don't be expecting to have huge, blockbuster cut scenes. It's always just your character, and some interrogator. Nothing really here, except tricked out lighting, and camera angles positioned so you can never really see a full face shot of either character. Either way, I think it's a nice change, and it looks better then blocky characters moving around with lips that have 3 positions.
Now to the important part. The gameplay. The gameplay can be summed up in 3 words: fast and furious. Enemies are ALWAYS coming at you, and you will hardly ever find cover that is permanent. Your best defensive, is an offensive. What I mean by this, is that if the enemies aren't being shot at, they're shooting. So to stop them from shooting, you must keep shooting them. This is a change from the usual games that make you find cover and pop up to take an enemy down, then repeat.
One of the real treats here are explosions. I never got tired of the explosions, and there were always plenty to go around. Some were giant, and make your job drop, others are small, but usually are positioned right next to an enemy, so they send him shooting off in the opposite distance. A lot of people are saying that the smaller explosions are positioned too perfectly, as most of the time there will ALWAYS be an enemy around them. But what is the point of so many small explosions if there's no one to be hit by them?
The A.I. in this game is nothing great, to be honest, but with the amount of enemies, the amount of damage they take, and the amount of damage they dish, any smarter enemies would make the game very hard, and would frustrate many gamers. This game is pretty challenging as is.
This game is intense from start to finish. Times when there are no enemies around are almost a sigh of relief. You just want to take a rest to relax, because it can be mentally straining.
The downsides to this game are small. My biggest complaint is the option of not being able to save anywhere or at least that the checkpoints are so far apart. Also, I think there should be more enemy variety, as there are really only about 4 types of enemies, though some are changed up by being given different guns.
The game's shortness could be a turnoff to others, but I find it perfect. I think any more, and the game would definitely dull, and by the end you'd just want to finish it so you could be done with it. This brings me to a point I want to make. Many people complain of the game dulling too fast and the shortness of the game. Alone, these are both perfectly understandable, but together, they make no sense. I mean, you want the game to be longer, even though you got bored before the original length even ended? Yea...
In my opinion, the shortness makes this title very replayable. During this summer, when no games are being released, and I start looking through my collection for a good game to replay, am I going to choose between 20+ hour titles, which I was probably glad to be done with originally, or the 6 or 7 hour game, Black, which I felt ended at a perfect time? The thought of replaying a 6 hour game seems much more pleasant to me then playing a much longer title, which is why I feel that buying this game is justified. Maybe not at $40, but at $30 or $20, you've got yourself a great buy.
For now, I'd rent the game, play it, and when the price drops to $30 or $20, snatch it up. And trust me; it won't be long before it gets to those prices anyways.

Bulldogs are a very unique breed and have a very unique history, like being in a sport called bull baiting. There is more information about this sport in this piece.These particular dogs have a very interesting history and characteristics.Bulldogs were introduced to America in the 17th century.Owning a bulldog takes a lot of knowledge and responsibility to keeping it with you today.Bulldogs need lots of care because of their health issues so here is some information about all these topics.
Bulldog History
Bulldogs have a very interesting history. They were used for a (sport) called Bull Baiting. This was where the bulldog would grab on to the bull and hang on as long as they could. The bulldog was meant for this sport because there noses were flat on there face so they could breath easily, just think of Voldemort (the bad guy) from Harry Potter. They were very heavy back then and still are today. They were also used to gather livestock. This was after bull baiting was outlawed. No one had a purpose for the English Bulldog anymore so they used it for something else. Since bulldogs are pretty dominant they were used to get the animals back where they belong. These were how the people back then used the English Bulldog and some even still use them for gathering livestock today.
English Bulldogs today are very sensitive. Bulldogs need lots of care like a special diet. Bulldogs stomachs aren't as strong as other dogs so they can't even have grain in their diet so it's good to get them food labeled sensitive stomach. Bulldogs are short haired so they shed easily. They also need grooming because of their short hair. They also tend to need bathed every once and a while. Since the English Bulldog has a lot of fat they need exercise. Bulldogs are not very active so they need exercise so they stay healthy. Bulldogs should get a walk about 2 times a week so they stay healthy. Imagine that your Bulldog doesn't get a lot of exercise, they would never be active or social because they're not burning calories. Bulldogs live to be about 10 years.
Health Issues
The English Bulldogs are one of the most common dogs with a lot of health issues. They usually have a hard time breathing. This is because there noses are so closed together and there air waves are different so it's hard to breathe. Another health issue is in between their flabs on there face, it can get really dirty in there because their tongues can reach in there so when they lick it gets scum in there. The Bulldogs can't stand extreme heat or extreme cold. This is because there body can't take the heat/cold or they will die. Bulldogs hips can be very deformed. This is because the way they are shaped that when they're born they can have deformed hips. Another way they're hips can be deformed is if you do something like pick them up the wrong way, then their hips can pop out of place and stay like that. Bulldogs just have these health issues because of different reasons. Some of these reasons were mentioned in this paragraph but there are other reasons that weren't talked about.
Owning A Bulldog
Owning a bulldog is rewarding sometimes. There are pros and cons to owning a bulldog and here are some of them. They are loyal ,which is a pro because you can know they will be beside you when you need them. A con is they are short lived. This is a con because usually you want a dog that will be with you for a long time but this dog doesn't because of its health. Another pro is that they are very on guard. So they're kind of like watch dogs because they will bark until whatever is there will go away. Another con is their stubborn. This is a con because they like to not follow directions and tend to bark at things that they don't need to. The pros can be rewarding sometimes for safety of something so thats good if you are too old to defend yourself. The cons are not rewarding but usually really annoying but there is a solution and that is to train your Bulldog to not do those things when they're young so they will do it when there older.
The English Bulldog is a very unique breed and has some interesting history. Bulldogs need lots of care because of their health issues. Owning a bulldog is something you really need to take responsibility for so they are alive and healthy. Take this information incase you need to use it when you might get a bulldog. Also don't be afraid to do some more research on your own to learn more about bulldogs. Don't be afraid to get a bulldog but remember, that you have care for them, before they will care for you.

MINI Considering Revival of Riley Brand With True Luxury Model
MINI has plenty of expansion plans for its range of fun-to-drive cars, with the latest rumor suggesting an up-market model. Inspired by the Riley Elf and Wolseley Hornet, luxury versions of the original Mini built from 1961 to 1969, this new car could run under the Riley name.
And while current MINI products are "premium," this new model would be pure luxury with higher-grade leather and real wood trim.
At this point its pretty much rumors and speculation, with the possibility that the car could take two different directions. The first would be to use the third-generation platform due out in 2013, which would appeal to affluent urbanites in large cities (particularly in Europe). The second option is that the car could take a coupe (rather than a hatchback) form in order to appeal to the U.S. audience that generally sees hatchbacks as low-dollar cars.
At this point, we wouldn't be on either – not for a few years anyway.

Former England international John Barnes believes Liverpool new-boy Sadio Mane is the perfect Jurgen Klopp player.
The Senegal international put pen to paper on a lucrative five-year-deal at the end of June, and Barnes believes Mane is ideal for Klopp's attacking brand of football.
Speaking to talkSPORT's Saturday Scoreboard show, Barnes described the qualities of the £35million signing from Southampton.
"I think he's had a fantastic season at Southampton and he is a Jurgen Klopp type of player," Barnes said. "If you look at what he (Klopp) did at Dortmund, he likes quick, counter-attacking, fast players.
"You don't have to be the best technically, but you have to be fit, strong and quick. So he is a typical Klopp type player."
Mane scored 12 goals in all competitions last season, and was integral to the Saints strong campaign that saw them finish sixth and qualify for the Europa League.
Barnes, who also played for Watford and Newcastle during his career, told talkSPORT that he believes Liverpool must improve from last year and is expecting to see just that.
"This year I'll be more demanding." Barnes said. "I didn't get carried away when they played really well against Manchester City or Chelsea, and I didn't get carried away when they played really badly and lost.
Klopp has been relatively quiet other than the signing of Mane, with goalkeeper Loris Karius and Schalke's Joel Matip putting pen to paper on Anfield deals.
In other Liverpool news, this ex-Arsenal star was given a shock start of Liverpool during a pre-season friendly.

Obese Are Paid Less
December 21, 2011 by staff
Obese Are Paid Less, Can your weight affect your paycheck? According to a new study, yes it can — and by thousands of dollars. A new report from George Washington University School of Public Health and Health Services' Department of Health Policy (GW) found that while both obese genders are paid less, obese women are particularly negatively affected.
Researchers looked at data from 2004 to 2008 and found that in 2004, wages for the obese were $8,666 less for females and $4,772 lower for males. In 2008, wages were $5,826 less for obese females, indicating a 14.6 percent decrease as compared to normal-weight females.
This is not the first time obese women have been found to make less. Previous research from Iceland found that not only do overweight women make less money, but they also have a harder time getting jobs than their normal-weight peers.
What do you think about this research?

Printer Repair Questions? Ask IT Technicians for Answers ASAP
Hi, thank you for contacting JustAnswer.com. My name is Russell. I will do my best to provide the right answer to your question.
If the local network is secure, how is it secured?
With a firewall router? if so, was that reset just before the failure? if so, check the router's firewall settings as to whether they allow the computer to request and then receive a scan from the printer?
Check also on the computer's own firewall. Printing, be it noted, is a different port to open in the firewall, than scanning. So the printing working only proves the connection is there and usable, but not that the firewall is properly configured for scanning too.
Printing can be allowed by firewall over a network, and also scanning.
At worst, uninstalling the printer from the computer, restarting the computer, and reinstalling all the printer's software, could help.

Country Research Internship
GoUNESCO's goal is to make heritage fun and to inspire an appreciation for heritage everywhere – tangible or intangible, cultural or natural. As part of the intelligence team, GoUNESCO Country Research interns – that's you! – will build a repository of travel information for UNESCO-designated World Heritage Sites (WHS) for countries around the world. This page describes the internship workflow.
Internship Workflow:
- Over five weeks (starting 12-JUL), research travel data pertaining to 10 UNESCO-designated World Heritage Sites (WHS).
- Next, spend two weeks (starting 16-AUG) reviewing travel data collected for another set of 10 WHS.
- That's it – You're now an expert on the WHS in one or more countries and we will acknowledge your contribution at gounesco.com!
Internship Duration: 7 Weeks (12th July – 30th August)
- By 12-JUL: Check your email and review your assigned set of 10 UNESCO World Heritage Sites (WHS).
- By 19-JUL: Research WHS #1 and WHS #2
- By 26-JUL : Research WHS #3 and WHS #4
- By 02-AUG: Research WHS #5 and WHS #6
- By 09-AUG: Research WHS #7 and WHS #8
- By 16-AUG: Research WHS #9 and WHS #10
- By 30-AUG: Review another intern's set of 10 UNESCO World Heritage Sites
- Introductory screencast (10 min. video) and related presentation
- Internship Planner (Print this page to track your progress or just mark your WHS on a map)
Note: Jump to Question 11 to read FAQs related to the Review Process.
1. How do I know which heritage sites I have been assigned?
Check your email! You have been sent a link to a Google sheet that has 10 heritage sites. The majority of these will be in a single country – so by the end of the 2 month exercise you will be quite knowledgeable about that country's heritage.
2. Can I be assigned heritage sites in my country of residence?
Please email email@example.com by the 15th of July – and we will try and accommodate your request. Having said that, we believe that the research on World Heritage Sites can be undertaken online – and so you should be able to research these sites even if they are not in your country of residence.
3. What sources can I use to research the World Heritage Sites assigned to me?
Refer to country tourism board websites, UNESCO World Heritage Site web pages, and region-specific travel forums.
4. Where do I save all the travel information I have researched?
In the Google Sheet shared with you! This is a link only you have access to. Use one row for each World Heritage Site. In the event that the World Heritage Site you have been allocated is a group of sites use one row for each sites. So you will create two rows if you were allocated the West Norwegian Fjords – Geirangerfjord and Nærøyfjord.
5. Timelines?
- Over the first 5 weeks of the internship, research and gather travel information for your 10 assigned UNESCO World Heritage Sites – at the rate of 2 sites a week.
- Ensure your Google Sheet is updated with your 2 UNESCO WHS by 11.59 PM GMT every Tuesday. You just need to enter data into each cell – and it is automatically saved. No downloading, sharing or emailing is necessary.
- Researching each World Heritage Site should take 6 hours so plan to set aside 12 hours each week.
6. How does the review process work?
The internship duration is 7 weeks long. The first 5 weeks will be spent gathering data for 10 World Heritage Sites each. The last two weeks will be spent reviewing another intern's research. Around Week 5, you will receive a Google Sheet with researched travel information for 10 World Heritage Sites as gathered by another intern.
7. What about plagiarised content?
Any plagiarised content, if found, will result in a complete purge of all your inputs. We require originally researched content. Given that the majority of travel data points will be < 50 words each, we think this is a fair ask. For the few data fields (site description, historical context) that require about 200 words of researched content, we recommend you fill these in after researching other travel data.
8. How do I know when a website or social media channel is "official" or not?
Official Websites or Social Media Channels are those run by the World Heritage Site itself or by the country's tourism department. There are often travel operator-run websites that provide just as useful information but they will quite likely put an emphasis on tour packages and hotel listings.
9. What should I do if i am unable to find some data points?
If you are unable to gather specific data points or if this data just does not exist , please leave the field blank. So if the UNESCO WHS does not have an official website or social media channels you can leave those fields blank. You can follow the same approach if data points such as WiFi availability and accessibility information are not easily available. Do conduct the due diligence before leaving the field blank.
10. Some formatting tips
- Use Ctrl+Enter to create a new line within a particular cell in a Google Sheet. This is especially useful when entering information about apps and books associated with the WHS. So if there are three books that are extolling the virtues of a WHS, list them on three rows within the relevant cell rather than listing them on three separate rows.
- In the unlikely event that you need to create additional rows, do ensure you copy the ID value from column D as well. So if you feel the need to create three rows for an assigned WHS, its ID value (the internal tracking number that we use) should appear in Column D each time.
11. What is the goal of the Review Process?
- Over the course of this project you and your peers have researched over 30 data points for over 1031 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The goal of the review process is to validate the quality of this research – before publishing it at GoUNESCO.com. The Google Form you will receive is a key tool you will use in the review process. Please complete reviewing all 10 World Heritage Sites by the 28th of August. We expect the review process should take you about 30 mins / World Heritage Site.
12. How do I know which World Heritage Site's research I have to review?
- You will receive a Google sheet completed by a peer intern. It has ten rows – each corresponding to one World Heritage Site. IMPORTANT: Please review this but do not edit/modify this.
- You will also receive a link to a Google Form that you can use during the review process. Submit the Google Form once for each UNESCO WHS that your peer intern has researched. So if he/she has researched 10 WHS, submit the form 10 times.
13. What if the peer intern has not completed research on all ten WHS assigned?
- Submit the Google Form once for each UNESCO WHS that your peer intern has researched. If he/she has researched five sites (meaning there are five rows filled in) submit your Google Form five times.
14. What if I have not completed my research on the ten WHS assigned to me?
- Since the review process has begun, you can stop your research. Please proceed with the review process. Plan to finish the review process by the 28th of August.
15. What if I have not completed my research on the ten WHS assigned to me?
- Since the review process has begun, you can stop your research. Please proceed with the review process. Plan to finish the review process by the 30th of August.
16. What happens after the internship ends?
- You will receive a certificate from GoUNESCO
- Your name appears against the UNESCO World Heritage Site profiles you gathered data for, and
- (If you give us permission) we will create a channel for heritage enthusiasts to contact you for travel advice.
- Needless to say, all of the above is dependent on you providing high quality researched travel information.

Seventy-five years ago, after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Americans on the West Coast of the U.S. all shared a concern about possible further Japanese attacks there. The military command began to take measures to secure strategic military facilities, harbors and bases as civilians continued to live their daily lives with perhaps a sharpened sense of potential peril. After all, they were in closest geographical proximity to the Japanese enemy.
Among these West Coast residents were several hundred thousand residents of Japanese descent. Some were fishermen, others farmers and still others owners of a variety of businesses up and down the coast. For them, life in the winter of 1942 continued as for other Americans: busy but with a wary ear to news of possible Japanese military activity.
For some Japanese Americans, war news came from a different direction. One young boy, now in his eighties, recalls that one day, with no warning, armed FBI agents showed up at his home to take his father away without any explanation. They did not tell the family where or why they were taking him. He was the family's bread-winner. This happened to numerous other families whose fathers were deemed to be "potential threats" because they served as leaders in their communities.
In late February and onward through the spring, Japanese American families received notices and saw posters announcing that they would be sent away from the coast to undesignated "secure areas." Later they received specific times by which they had to be ready to leave their homes taking only what they could carry. Each family was given tags with their family Identification number to attach to their persons and their bags. Imagine how hard it would be to store or get rid of your possessions, your house, your business in just a few weeks' time. And how to decide what to take when you don't know where you are going or for how long.
During the spring of 1942, under the authorization of Executive Order 9066, signed by
President Franklin Roosevelt, and the War Relocation Authority, more than 120,000 Americans of Japanese descent, some 80,000 of whom were natural born US citizens, were herded first into relocation centers, such as the stables at Santa Anita Racetrack, and then on to one of the ten incarceration centers mostly located in the most desolate parts of the western United States. This happened without any due process of or evidence of disloyalty to the U.S. In the camps they were expected to put their lives together under armed military supervision for they knew not how long. Conditions in the camps were generally harsh. When the prisoners arrived, the camps were not yet completed and they had to help finish building the tar paper barracks where they were to live. There was little privacy: walls were thin and the communal bathroom buildings had no stall partitions. Meals, which by overwhelming opinion were awful (think spam and cold potatoes), were served in mess halls. The authorities had not thought what to do with them except to imprison them in camps. They had to create their own schools for the children and create their own activities such as gardening, baseball teams and making art from scraps and found objects.
After the war, investigations by government committees found that no Japanese Americans had offered aid to the enemy or committed any crimes. Many of those of military age joined the armed forces fighting in Europe in the 442nd, one of the most decorated units in the Army. Others were instrumental in the Military Intelligence Service serving as battlefield interpreters and translators.
Learn more about this part of U.S. history at the Library. Mark your calendars now for Wednesday, May 17 at 7 p.m. at the Main Library in Burlington when Gordon Yoshikawa talks about his experience living in a Japanese internment camp as a young child.
There is a large body of literature, non-fiction and fiction, that recounts the experiences of Japanese Americans during the time of their incarceration by the U.S. Government. Below are some of these books that can be checked out at Boone County Public Library.
