From George Washington to Major General Steuben, 19 December 1778
To Major General Steuben
[Middlebrook, N.J.] 19th Decr 1778
I had the honor of receiving a few days since your letter of the 6th instant;1 I am much obliged to you for the polite assurances you give; and in my turn, I beg you will believe, that when the institution at the head of which you have been placed, can once be established upon a footing mutually agreeable to you and to the army, to which end all the measures I have taken in it have been directed, I shall be happy to give you every support in my power to facilitate your operations—In doing this I shall equally consult the personal consideration I have for you, and the improvement and benefit of the army, which I am persuaded will be greatly promoted by a full exertion of the same talents, experience and activity, of which you have already given the most satisfactory proofs. I am with great esteem & regard Sir Yr Most Obedt serv.
Df, in Alexander Hamilton's writing, DLC:GW; Varick transcript, DLC:GW.

Unlike previous year, Google has not showed up any early developer preview of Android 8.0, and the only official tease is of the " Oreo " naming, which to is far from confirmation. Other features worth mentioning include a picture-in-picture mode for phones (the feature came to tablets last year), "adaptive" app icons that should look native to multiple phone launchers, better keyboard navigation for devices like Chromebooks and support for autofill apps.

Analyst says all 2017 iPhones to feature Lightning ports and fast charging
So chances are the Lightning connector will not be there. As such, users considering to buy a new smartphone would be better off waiting a few month for the new device which is expected to come out in September this year. Another example is the 30-pin connector that matched the iPod's which was wider than the Lightning port used by iPhones now. It will have the same type of connector on Mac and other iOS devices.

Snapchat owner's stock leaps 41% on USA stock market debut
CEO Evan Spiegel and Co-founder Bobby Murphy will have complete control over voting shares of the company. Snap Inc.'s debut on the NYSE this morning looks like a big hit, and has been described as "the biggest tech listing in years". The feature, which was previously unique to Snapchat, plays photos and videos shared by users in a loop for 24 hours before they disappear. Snapchat had 161 million daily active users (DAUs) in the last month of the quarter that ended on December 31, 2016. Read More »
Microsoft To Bring Mixed Reality To Xbox One, Project Scorpio In 2018
This is a little different from Microsoft's Hololens , as that doesn't require a PC connection and uses on board processing. Gesture tracking, another key pillar of the HoloLens experience, is also missing from the Acer HMD. "Windows Mixed Reality" is Microsoft's new name for the "Windows Holographic" platform, but the technology is more generally known as augmented reality. Read More »

Another screenshot, this time on Imgur, shows the same pricing tier and benefits, save for the free vinyl record, which is replaced by exclusive presale concert tickets.

IPhone 8 to get OLED screen and USB Type-C?
A USB-C cable can handle power, data and video on a single cable with a single connector. Apple is expected to ditch the Lightning connector from the next-generation iPhone, believed to be the iPhone 8 or iPhone X . This means that Apple would create a new division in its iPhone line, opening up the scope for new peripherals and apps, but also causing confusion and frustration by throwing a new port into the mix.

Wild trade for Hanzal and White
Hanzal played in ten seasons with the Coyotes, amassing 313 points in 608 games. That 2019 fourth-round pick becomes a third-rounder if Minnesota wins one playoff round this spring and a second-rounder if it wins reaches the West final. White has a 42.9 5v5 CF% on the fourth line this year, or -4.69% relative to the rest of the team. "It's been a good 10 years, but I'm really looking forward to being in the playoffs and stepping on the ice to help Minnesota", said Hanzal, per Morgan . Read More »

Miami Dolphins trying to trade Branden Albert before releasing him
Brought in as a pass rusher, the former No. 1 overall pick collected just 1 1/2 sacks last season and was set to cost the Dolphins $10.5 million against the cap in 2017. None of the recent releases were complicated decisions for the Dolphins because of age, injury history, or lack of productivity.

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner 'fought Trump's LGBT order'
Kushner and Ivanka pushed for the White House to release a statement of its intentions, according to the report. "That's where the decision is ultimately being made".

I am so happy that these diapers exist, my baby couldn't be more comfortable, she is always smiling and sleeps well through the night and her diaper is never soaking :-) I am so glad that they have all sizes because I will keep using these only!
We use them only, you know, for diaper changes, but for a lot of other purposes like face cleaning and hand wiping and What I love about them is they're extremely tough. They basically leave the skin extremely soft and they're not irritating, they had aloe in it. Which helps with any irritation that he's having. Since I've been using them I hardly have to use ever any diaper rash cream, so that's wonderful.
The inside of it, honest to goodness, when I opened these up and I felt the liner for the first time, I was in shock. I have never in my life felt a diaper as absorbent, as soft, cuddly as this. And I have several children, and I have gone through a lot of diapers, a lot of different diaper brands. Changed a lot of diapers and I have, like I said, other than a cloth diaper, this is the softest one I've ever felt. These are the little bumps, the little pillows. This is the liner and it is so soft. I can't say that enough. It really truly is. It's so gentle against your baby's skin. I have found that these diapers wick away the moisture really, really well, and keep my baby's skin really dry and protected.
"Having 3 children still in diapers, Huggies Little Movers are simply my favorite diaper by far. My kids are constantly playing, and exploring, and aren't wetting themselves as often as they did a yr ago, but the gel beads that form when the diaper is ready to be changed is simply genius. The children can play, n play without rashes, diapers falling apart, or wetting their clothes. It saves on diaper creams, changing them every 1-2 hrs (depending on how much they had to drink), and on wet clothing because of leaks. We only buy Huggies diapers because we save in the long run when we compare the cheaper diapers and how often we have to change them, or put on a new outfit because other brands don't hold up as well. Finding the right diaper for the price took some trial n error but I wouldn't use any other brand since we tried Huggies"
My little one is on the go and these diapers allow her to do that with no leakage and the stretchy waist and extended tabs are a great way for me to hurry to get the diaper on her. She's not too patient these days waiting to get changed. Love these diapers.

While it may not be difficult to locate replacement parts for Mercedes-Benz vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the highest quality are required to fix your automobile. It's not a regular occurrence that you find yourself in need of a replacement Coolant & Radiator Hose to repair your vehicle. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace. Your Mercedes-Benz dealership isn't the only place to find the best replacement parts for your E350.
Car or truck motors need to keep cool if they are going to stay running. That's why your Mercedes-Benz E350 engine has a network of radiator and coolant hoses transferring water and ethylene glycol throughout the engine. The radiator hoses under your hood connect the radiator to the water pump and to the engine block, while other coolant hoses send the ethylene glycol mixture through the coolant expansion tank, heater core, and thermostat housing. If a Mercedes-Benz E350 radiator or coolant hose develops a leak, then coolant pressure will drop and it could boil; leading to engine failure.
Bring your E350 back to life with the best replacement parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Given all the hassles associated with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy. Procuring new Mercedes-Benz parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement E350 parts on the internet. Need 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 1954 Mercedes-Benz E350 Coolant & Radiator Hose parts? We've got them right here.

Have you ever thought about the way you Google? Are you asking questions, or are you typing in long & specific search terms? Have you noticed that the more specific you get, the harder it is to find exactly what you are looking for? That is where successful content marketing comes into play.
You've likely heard the phrase 'content marketing' floating around lately, but what exactly is it and how can you put it to good use?
Last week, I ventured over to the Internet Summit conference in Raleigh to attend a (no surprise here) content marketing workshop, hosted by Arnie Kuenn, CEO of Vertical Measures. I've been using content marketing as part of my marketing strategy for a while now, but it was time for me to dig in a little deeper and learn more about how to use it to the best of my ability.
Now let's talk about what I learned – yep, free of charge. I'll tell you all about content marketing because we're just awesome like that over here at Cuberis. Let me grab my notes and give you the highlights.
So, lets go back to some of my original questions – how frustrating is it when you are searching for something on Google and you just can't find what you are looking for? Super frustrating. What about when you go to a business' website and you can't figure out an answer to a question you have? Chances are, if you can't find what you are looking for from a business, you will move on to one of their competitors that does offer you all the information you are looking for. Do you see the opportunity here? I do – and so do many other savvy internet marketers.
Content marketing is the practice of providing useful and relevant information to your customers. When you execute content marketing successfully, it goes a little something like this:
- Your customers have questions and/or want to learn more about a topic relevant to your business
- You write answers to these questions/topics
- Your customers are then more informed
- You become a trusted resource and an expert in your industry
- You become better than your competitors who don't provide these resources
Going back to what Arnie said during his workshop: if you keep providing this useful information, your customers will reward you with loyalty. They will eventually buy from you. It may not be right away, as this type of marketing takes time to prove return on investment, but they will.
We'll end our #contentmarketing tweet session with this. #ISUM14 @ArnieK pic.twitter.com/Yl0wkhhbCq
— Cuberis (@cuberis) November 12, 2014
How do you know what information your customers are looking for? There are a few ways to find out. Arnie gave us some resources to check out, one being www.keywordtool.io. This site allows you to type in keywords relevant to your business to see what people are searching for. When you start doing this research, you will find more and more about what people are specifically typing in to get to your site, to read your content, to buy your product – and that is how you discover what topics are relevant for your customers.
So you can see here, I typed in "Content Marketing" and here are a few of the terms being searched for related to this keyword:
Take some time and use this keyword tool or other helpful sites like it. Write down any ideas you come up with and topics that you can write about.
So now that you've come up with a few ideas, how do you execute it? Who will write these blog posts & articles? What do you ultimately want your content to accomplish? What actions do you want your customers to take after reading your content? Arnie gave us some great suggestions on ways to hammer out these details.
What is the purpose of your content marketing efforts?
Retention? Lead generation? To become a thought leader in your industry? All of the above? Nail that out so you can tailor your ultimate message to entice your customer to buy/interact/comment – whatever you want them to do with your business.
Who is your audience?
Are they current customers? New customers? Are they based in a specific location (ie: Raleigh, NC or the entire state of North Carolina or the entire country?) Are they seasonal? You'll want to tailor your message to this audience. The more relevant it is to their specific needs, the more likely your content marketing efforts will pay off in the end.
Who are you?
How do you want to present this information? Will it be full of statistics or more conversational? Will your voice be humorous or will it be serious? Establish your brand's voice and stick to it so your customers can understand who you are as a company.
Who will write the content?
Who on your team enjoys writing? Who is the expert on each topic and most of all – who is willing to contribute to your content marketing efforts? Use your employees to your advantage! Asking them to write an article or two each month will help you achieve the sweet spot in the blogging world – 10 to 15 articles a month. Yep. 10 to 15. Sounds like a lot because it is, but it will pay off in the end when your company gets higher and more frequent Google search results. That is ROI my friends. Always remember that Google rewards those who create fresh content often.
Now that you've done all this leg work, what's next? Create an editorial calendar (Thanks Arnie!) and a spreadsheet to keep all of your keyword research and topic ideas. Then, start writing on your blog (You don't have a blog, you say? Go ahead and start one. Don't know how? Shameless pitch, but we can help you with that).
This is a fairly high level overview, but really, it's this simple: You write about topics that are relevant to your business and your customers, you provide information that answers questions to those who are asking, and you get rewarded by showing up more often in search results and ultimately earning more business.
A few other quick tips:
- Create good subject lines & blog titles
- Optimize the images that you use with keywords that are relevant to the photo/article. And don't forget to actually use images. Images are fun and people share content with images more frequently than articles without.
- Use links in your posts – these can be internal links to existing information you have created, or external links to outside information that is relevant.
- I'll be open about it….Here is my link for this article. Check out: The Ultimate Content Marketing Checklist. That was easy.
- Want your employees to keep writing for you? Reward them for it!
- Use video. Youtube is one of the most searched websites. Film tutorials, interviews, fun things around the office, etc. People love video.
- Don't crank out content for the sake of creating content. Make sure it's relevant and your audience will enjoy reading it.

Engaging with regional clusters and SMEs to accelerate the identification, development and commercialisation of innovative technology in offshore renewable energy is a key objective for ORE Catapult.
We are already working in collaboration with regional organisations involved in innovation and economic development in offshore renewable energy, and are looking to establish new strategic partnerships, investing resources to focus on SME-led innovation and to drive regional delivery.
This regional engagement strategy builds on direct discussions with Local Enterprise Partnerships, Economic Development bodies and Devolved Administrations across the UK over a number of months, and has been designed based on input from the regions.
We are a key delivery partner in SCORE2, £6million grant fund supporting small and medium sized companies that are developing new technologies.
Grants are available for up to 40% of eligible costs or £50,000, whichever is the lower, with a minimum grant of £2,500.
If your company has a base in Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk you could be eligible for funding to develop a new product, process or idea. Anything from patenting a new product to exploring concepts that offer new ways of looking at the generation of offshore renewable energy.
And we can put you in touch with engineers, researchers and specialists in business growth technology accelerations and product commercialisation from our partners, along with our partners Nwes and Nautilus Associates. Our support is free of charge to eligible companies operating in offshore wind, wave and tidal, other marine renewable energy technologies and their direct supply chains.
To qualify for a grant and specialist support your company must employ fewer than 250 people and have net assets of less than €50million. SCORE is open to start-up and established companies.
Marine-i, a collaboration between the Universities of Exeter and Plymouth, The Cornwall College Group, Cornwall Marine Network, Cornwall Development Company and ORE Catapult brings together key infrastructure and expertise to enable the generation of new innovation in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly's marine sector, which has been identified as an area of high growth potential.
Marine-i will focus on four interconnected themes: marine energy, marine manufacturing, maritime operations and marine environmental technologies, to stimulate and support business-led and market-driven research and development and innovation to drive productivity and the exploitation of new market opportunities. Marine-i also forms part of the Marine Hub Cornwall sector collaboration, which aims to showcase Cornwall as a world class centre for marine renewables technology.
The Marine-i team will include innovation managers and business research fellows from the partners who will provide direct technology and innovation support to SMEs, and will act as the conduit to access the wide range of specialist services and facilities that are available within the project. At the heart of the Marine-i is a £3.18m Marine Challenge Fund offering a range of grants from £5K to £150K – a delegated scheme that has been specifically designed to drive marine sector research, development and innovation.

The Mattress Recycling Council (MRC) seeks qualified candidates to serve as an in-state staff member to assist in the on-going implementation of the statewide mattress recycling program. This position will perform varied tasks required to develop, implement and maintain a successful mattress recycling program throughout California with a focus on working directly with large volume generators of old mattresses for disposal including mattress retailers, hotels, educational facilities and solid waste facilities. The ideal candidate will reside in Southern California.
About the MRC
Formed by the International Sleep Products Association (ISPA) in 2013, MRC is a non-profit organization that develops and implements mattress recycling programs in states that require mattress recycling, including California. These programs are funded by a fee collected on the sale of each mattress within the state. MRC's objectives are aligned with these laws: to promote and encourage the proper recycling of mattresses at end of life.
Scope of Work
In 2013, Connecticut, Rhode Island and California enacted mattress recycling laws creating the statutory framework to fund the collection, transportation and recycling of discarded mattresses. Connecticut was the first state to implement in May of 2015. California and Rhode Island launched in 2016. Important information about the California program created through SB-254 and 1274 is described in that state's mattress recycling law:
SB-254: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB254
SB-1274: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB1274
MRC has designed the California mattress recycling program to meet the requirements of the law, regulations and program plan. To fund the program, retailers collect an $11 per unit fee from the sale of each mattress, and then remit that fee to MRC. MRC uses collected fees to pay for transportation, recycling, consumer education and program administrative costs.
Preferred Skills & Qualifications

Compensation This is a full-time salaried telework position; salary commensurate with experience. MRC provides an extensive benefit package.

I have been using Google Plus for about a week and I already like it better than Facebook. I should probably admit upfront that I never really liked Facebook, so it's pretty easy to find something that I like better, but Google really has made a great product this time around.
Although there are many similarities between Facebook and Google+, the biggest (and coolest) difference might be Circles. These mimic the social circles that we have in real life; true friends, acquaintances, family members, etc. With a simple drag-and-drop, you can put people in the appropriate circle and control exactly what they see. While the same thing could potentially be achieved with lists on Facebook, this method is much less cumbersome and easier to implement.
An article I read recently said that we shouldn't think of Google+ as a social network, but as a replacement for everything from email to blogging platforms. The reality that you can write anything and then decide who gets to see it is genius. One of the biggest problems I have with Facebook is how I feel like I have to share the same information with everyone – whether a close friend or someone I hardly know. G+ makes it easy to share something with as few or as many people as I want with just a click.
Whether or not this thing is a Facebook/Twitter killer remains to be seen, but I'd say my days on both are certainly numbered.

One of Scrivener's many nifty features on the Mac and Windows is the ability to view the pieces of your manuscript either in isolation or in context. You write your text in chunks as large or small as you like, and then you can view and edit them together as though they were a single document. The feature that allows this we call "Scrivenings mode".
As much as we love Scrivenings mode, a number of important considerations meant that it wasn't something we could bring over to the iOS version in its entirety (considerations such as limitations of the iOS text system and hardware, the necessity of maintaining a small memory footprint, and ease of use within an environment where minimalism reigns).
So how do you get an overview and see your work in context on iOS without Scrivenings mode? On the iPhone, there's not really space to get much context anyway. On the iPad, however, there is the Draft navigator, which is always accessible from the bottom of the editor.
Not dissimilar to the Page Flip feature on a Kindle, the Draft navigator shows all of the text in your Draft folder in a single, scrollable view, and you can quickly navigate between documents using the back and forward chevrons or using the slider. Tap on a document in the navigator to load it into the main editor; to edit a document, simply double-tap into the text you want to edit to load the document into the editor at the place you tapped.
So, in Scrivener, even on an iPad, getting and working with an overview of your manuscript is only a tap away.

He came back before schedule which is why he had a short match against CM Punk in his first match since Wrestlemania. Now if thats the case that's just insane, when people get a hip replacement they should be out for such a longer time then Undertaker was. But with that being said, don't expect him to wrestle every week. He'll probably wrestle mostly on pay per views.

2. Short or Long Time Blog

Short time niche blog is something like you start a blog about Olympic Game where you publish your post when the game held. People like to visit your site to get update about Olympic Game. But when the event over, people won't interested to visit your blog anymore. You can gather huge traffic for short time and can make money.
Otherwise, you can create a niche blog about technology. Though it takes quite more time to get popularity but most of your traffic in this blog will be permanent. You will publish everything relate with technology.

15 Interesting Facts About Plato
The Athenian philosopher Plato is one of the most important figures of the ancient Greek world and the entire history of Western thought. Let's know more about him by reading this article.
Here are 15 interesting things about Plato:
1. Plato is just a nickname and his actual name is Aristocles (ask.com)
2. The nickname Plato (which means "broad" or "wide" in Greek) was given to him in reference to his broad shoulders. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
3. Plato was born in 428 BC and he died in 347 BC (ask.com).

4. As a young man, Plato was not only a student—he was also a wrestler and a playwright. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
5. His parents are Ariston of Athens and Perictione. (ask.com)
6. One of his brightest works was The Republic which deals with questions of virtue, justice, wisdom, courage, and government. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
7. In 388 B.C. he founded his school, the Academy, which is considered the first European university. (History.com)
8. He used a lot of dialogues to try to obtain a deeper understanding of individual subjects. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
9. Aristotle was one of Plato's pupils at the Academy. (History.com)
10. Above the entrance to his Academy was the following quote, "Let none who has not learned Geometry enter here." (funtrivia.com)
11. Plato's philosophical works were heavily influenced by Socrates. Plato's agreed to Socrates's ideas in his writings. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
12. Plato was a student of Socrates (funtrivia.com)
13. 'The Apology" is Plato's works that describes the trial of Socrates, and Socrates' defense against charges that he was corrupting the youth of Athens. Socrates' self-defense was eloquent but not persuasive to his peers, who voted to have him executed. (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
14. Plato is recognized as one of the finest writers in Greek literature. (History.com)
15. Plato and his most esteemed student, Aristotle, both appear in the painting "The School of Athens" by Renaissance master Raphael (platophilosophymrj.blogspot.com)
We can see that Aristocles, well-known as Plato, is a real wise man who contributed a lot in Western philosophy. Some of his works and philosophy are still useful in the present time and I believe even in the future.

Unidev is a new board member of the Technology Business Alliance of Nevada (TBAN). The board is focusing on the creation of a central unit in which the Nevada technology community can come together as one. One of the first major changes TBAN is implementing is the President's Board. TBAN is bringing together representatives from local and state Government, the Las Vegas Chambers and the Regional Development Authority (RDA). The goal of the President's Board is to unify the voice of technology, create synergies and communicate the goings on of each organization in efforts to encourage and advance the growth of the technology sector in Southern Nevada. Mike Gardineer, President of TBAN says, "We're thrilled with the direction and momentum of TBAN. The Board, our generous sponsors, our membership and the community in general are all enthusiastic about solidifying and codifying the way in which technology contributes to the Nevadan economy and culture."
TBAN also intends to get involved with VegasTech and the rest of the startup community. The hopes of TBAN are to facilitate a forum in which startup entities can pose questions and obtain advice and mentoring. TBAN is extending a free one year membership to all new startups that are in their first year of business in efforts to demonstrate their benefits to the startup community. In addition, TBAN will put on events and workshops that will help these young companies cultivate their futures with respect to understanding operational costs, available local resources, procedures associated with applying for trademarks and patents and how to attract investors.
TBAN is moving its TechNevada Honors awards to January 2013, intending to start the year off with a bang! The Awards will honor the work of local tech leaders for the past year and pave the way for a productive future. TBAN is working towards the completion of the awards' nomination paperwork. Please visit our new website at https://www.tban.com for updates.
The Power of VegasTech and its Hashtag
The VegasTech hashtag is a powerful communication tool that keeps the community thriving and growing every minute of the day thanks to Twitter. The hashtag brings people, companies and event happenings all to one place. Las Vegas is one of the most entrepreneurial cities within the United States. According to CNN, they listed Nevada as the 7th most entrepreneurial state because of the number of technology firms that recently opened up and the friendly business tax climate.
Unidev is new to this community. As a new member, Unidev is trying find its place and where the cool kids are hanging out. The VegasTech hashtag made it easy for Unidev to find out where it needs to be and how to locate techies and entrepreneurs in the VegasTech community.
On the contrary, the VegasTech hashtag also helped launch Unidev as a key player. The community sees Unidev as an advocate in hosting events and participating in events. These event opportunities create awareness in local companies and techies, who then become more inclined to support Unidev in the future.
One example of event participation is when Unidev's VP of Business Development, Steve Thomas, acquired the opportunity to speak last week at LaunchUp#5. LaunchUp is a local organization that assists new start-ups in introducing themselves, and teaches them how the VegasTech Community can help in building a name. Another speaker was part of a newly funded company by VegasTech, called Ticketcake. To purchase the tickets for the event everyone used their website www.ticketcake.com. While Unidev was representing itself at the event, it also promoted the Ticketcake website. Through the power of Twitter and the VegasTech hash tag, Unidev and Ticketcake gladly started including each other on their tweets to advertise the event.
The LauchUp event was a great success. The VegasTech hashtag created collaboration between Unidev and Ticketcake, who will now work on a project together. Both companies are excited about the new partnership and look forward to working on many future projects together.

Obama Birth Certificate Update
We still have not been shown the original Barack Hussein Obama birth certificate. Let's catch up with some recent developments in the case of Obama's birth certificate. Millions of people still wonder what the truth is. Citizen Wells posted this on April 20: "A high-powered team of Los Angeles attorneys representing President Obama in his effort to keep his birth certificate, college records and passport documents concealed from the public has suggested there should be "monetary sanctions" against a lawyer whose clients have brought a complaint alleging Obama doesn't qualify for the Oval Office under the Constitution's demand for a "natural born" citizen in that post." We do know that a Kenyan diplomat said on a radio show that Obama was born in Kenya. We know he said it. Did he misspeak? I don't know, but there's also this, courtesy of Citizen Wells: Obama traveled to Indonesia, Pakistan and Southern India in 1981.... Therefore, it is believed Obama traveled on his Indonesian passport entering the Countries.... If Obama would have been a U.S. citizen, which he was not, 8 USC §1481(a)(2) provides loss of nationality by native born citizens upon "taking an oath or making an affirmation or other formal declaration of allegiance to a foreign state…after having attained the age of eighteen years", in violation of 8 U.S.C. §1401(a)(1). Since Lolo Soetoro legally acknowledged Obama as his son and/or adopted Obama, Obama was a "natural" citizen of Indonesia, as proven by Obama's school record." Confused? Me too. One thing is for certain, however: If Barack Hussein Obama would show the world his real, original birth certificate, stories like the above would dwindle. Meanwhile, Obama investigator Andy Martin will begin his latest foray into the murky world of Barack Obama. He'll begin filming an investigation of Obama's early years in Honolulu on May 9, 2009. Pre-production has already begun for the Internet-only video. Martin has made news last year when he challenged the Hawaiian "birth certificate" of Obama. To add to the confusion, The Israeli Insider reported the following in July, 2008 (emphasis added): Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of palpably fake Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same Daily Kos blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears. The evidence of manipulation of images of official documents, triggered by Israel Insider's revelation of the collection of Hawaii birth certificate images on the Photobucket site and the diligent detective work of independent investigative journalists in the three weeks since the publication of the images, implicate The Daily Kos, a "progressive" blog site, and the Obama campaign's "Fight the Smears" website, in misleading the public with official-looking but manipulated document images of doubtful provenance. Moreover, the blog and the campaign have been negligent in allowing the promotion of obviously fake official documents together with the purported image of Obama's birth certificate. The bottom line is that there are a lot of rumors flying around. 100 days into his presidency, Obama has yet to offer satisfactory proof that any of the rumors are false. It would be nice of him to extend to us the courtesy of letting us know whether or not he is legally eligible to hold the office of President of the United States. Perhaps we'll find out before he's fully implemented his socialist dictatorship.

The Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park (GLTP) links Mozambique's Limpopo National Park, South Africa's Kruger National Park, and three Zimbabwean conservation areas to form a protected area of 20,000 square miles. The relocation of some 1000 elephants from the overcrowded Kruger to the Limpopo National Park began in 2001, and in March 2004 a plan was executed that increased the size of the park to all of 60,000 square miles.
Directly benefitting from the conservation efforts of South Africa over the many past decades of wildlife conservation, Zimbabwe now enjoys prolific numbers of animals in these conservation areas that were once decimated by poaching.
The city of Great Zimbabwe is located to the east of the Kalahari desert between the Zambezi and Limpopo rivers. The huge walls and tower, which are held together without mortar, are the largest structures in Africa south of the Pyramids. The walls are up to 35 feet tall and 18 feet thick at the bottom.
When Portuguese traders first encountered the vast stone ruins of Great Zimbabwe in the sixteenth century, they believed they had found the fabled capital of the Queen of Sheba. Later travelers surmised that the site's impressive stone structures were the work of Egyptians, Phoenicians, or even Prester John, the legendary Christian king of lands beyond the Islamic realm. Such misguided and romantic speculation held for nearly 400 years, until the excavations of British archaeologists David Randall-MacIver and Gertrude Caton-Thompson early in this century, which confirmed that the ruins were of African origin.
The largest ancient stone construction south of the Sahara, Great Zimbabwe was built between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries by the ancestors of the Shona, one of Zimbabwe's many Bantu-speaking groups. The ruins cover nearly 1,800 acres and can be divided into three distinct architectural groupings known as the Hill Complex, the Valley Complex, and the Great Enclosure. At its apogee in the late fourteenth century, Great Zimbabwe may have had as many as 18,000 inhabitants. It was one of some 300 known stone enclosure sites on the Zimbabwe Plateau. In Bantu, zimbabwe means "sacred house" or "ritual seat of a king." An important trading center and capital of the medieval Zimbabwe state, the city controlled much of interior southeast Africa for nearly two centuries.
Hwange National Park (HNP) is Zimbabwe's biggest game reserve and covers 5,656 square miles of Kalahari sand country. It is a place of great contrasts between wet and dry season, with the extremes reminding you of the life-giving properties of water.
NHP has one of the densest concentrations of wildlife in Africa with great herds of buffalo and elephant and all the "big five" present. Other predominant species include giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, cheetah, African wild dog, kudu, hyena, impala, Roan antelope, waterbuck, tsessebe, black-backed jackal and bat-eared fox. This is also one of the best places in Africa to see the beautiful and elusive sable antelope.
Generally, there are no seasonal animal migrations. The best time to view wildlife is during the dry season, from July to October, when the game concentrates near permanent water. Game viewing is also good during May, June and November and fairly good from December through April. During the rainy season, from January to March, the game is widely dispersed.
Lake Kariba is like an inland sea on the border of two landlocked countries. By volume, Lake Kariba is the largest man-made lake and reservoir in the world. It is located on the Zambezi River, about halfway between the river's source and mouth, about 750 miles upstream from the Indian Ocean, and lies along the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Lake Kariba was filled between 1958 and 1963 following the completion of the Kariba Dam at its northeastern end, flooding the Kariba Gorge on the Zambezi River.
Lake, islands and shoreline constitute an unparalleled wilderness spectacle, home to a multitude of wildlife species in a protected environment. Elephants are often seen traversing the lake from shoreline to island. Lake Kariba is teeming with crocodiles and you can see them sunbathing at intervals of a few yards or so along the shore. Matusadona National Park is the finest safari location along the lake with the best of Lake Kariba's water wildlife coupled with great inland wildlife viewing. Game viewing by boat near the shore is a wonderful experience and visitors will see large herds of elephant, buffalo and plenty of hippos and waterbuck. Further into the park roan and sable antelope, kudu, impala, lions and black rhino are often seen while leopards are elusive.
Kariba is famed for its sport fishing, with the fighting tigerfish as the prime trophy.
Mana Pools National Park (MPNP) is one of Zimbabwe's most popular parks. Based on its wildness and beauty, together with the wide range of large mammals, over 350 bird species and aquatic wildlife, (MPNP) is a World Heritage Site, and it is easy to see why it falls into this profile.
The name "Mana" means "four" in the local Shona language. This applies to the four large pools inland from the Zambezi River. These pools are the remnant ox-bow lakes that the Zambezi River carved out thousands of years ago as it changed its course northwards. Hippopotamus, crocodiles and a wide variety of aquatic birds are associated with the pools. "Long Pool", is the largest of the four pools, extending some 3 ½ miles in a west-east direction. This pool has a large population of hippo and crocodiles and is a favorite for the large herds of elephant that come out of the thickly vegetated areas in the south to drink.
These 1,500 square miles of river frontage, islands, sandbanks and pools, flanked by forests of mahogany, wild figs, ebonies and baobabs, make up one of the least developed national parks in southern Africa. Canoeing and walking safaris are the most popular forms of game viewing at Mana Pools.
Described by the Kololo tribe living in the area in the 1800's as 'Mosi-oa-Tunya' – 'the Smoke that Thunders' and in more modern terms as 'the greatest known curtain of falling water', Victoria Falls are a spectacular sight of awe-inspiring beauty and grandeur on the Zambezi River, bordering Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Columns of spray can be seen from miles away as 546 million cubic yards of water per minute plummet over the edge, at the height of the flood season, over a width of more than one mile into a deep gorge over 300 feet below. The wide basalt cliff, over which the falls thunder, transforms the Zambezi from a wide placid river to a ferocious torrent cutting through a series of dramatic gorges.
Facing the falls is another sheer wall of basalt, rising to the same height and capped by mist-soaked rain forest. A path along the edge of the forest provides the visitor who is prepared to brave the tremendous spray with an unparalleled series of views of the falls.
Heralded as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Victoria Falls offers a myriad of accommodation choices in and around the town of Victoria Falls, some of them laden with history dating back to colonial rule. Whitewater rafting, helicopter tours, canoe trips and power boat rides are all means by which to enjoy the falls as well as the walking the paths along the cliffs and strolling across the bridge just a short distance downstream.
Zambezi National Park (ZNP) together with Victoria Falls National Park covers an area of 140,000 acres. The northern border of the ZNP is formed by the great Zambezi River which also forms the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia for much of its length. A wide variety of larger mammals may be found within the Zambezi National Park including The Big Five: elephant, lion, buffalo, leopard and white rhinoceros. In addition, herds of sable antelope, eland, zebra, giraffe, kudu, waterbuck and impala as well as many of the smaller species of game can be viewed. The Zambezi River is home to a large variety of fish and is famous for its bream and fighting tiger fish. The park has two main game-viewing sections: the Zambezi River Game Drive, with an extensive network of roads along the river accessed through the main gate of the Park, and the 15 mile Chamabondo Game Drive in the southern part of the park, which begins about 3 miles outside of the town of Victoria Falls – just off the main road to Bulawayo.
The Zambezi is Africa's fourth largest River system, after the Nile, Zaire and Niger Rivers. It runs through six countries on its journey from central Africa to the Indian Ocean for a total of 2,000 miles. Its unique value is that it is less developed than others in terms of human settlement and many areas along its banks enjoy protected status.
The river's power has carved the spectacular Victoria Falls and the zigzagging Batoka Gorge. The Zambezi has been harnessed at various points along the way including the massive Kariba Dam between Zambia and Zimbabwe and Cabora Bassa Dam in Mozambique.

Honister helicopter crash report
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch have found that a Cumbrian man who was killed in his helicopter, was 'not qualified to fly at night'.
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch have found that a Cumbrian man who was killed in his helicopter, was 'not qualified to fly at night'.
A Cumbrian entrepreneur who was killed in his helicopter last year was 'not qualified to fly at night', a report has found.
Mark Weir, 45, from Cockermouth, died on 8 March 2011 after his helicopter crashed shortly after taking off from the Honister Slate Mine that he owned in the Lake District.
A report by the Air Accident Investigations Branch has found that Mr Weir did not hold a night-flying qualification and had taken off in 'challenging circumstances' with reduced visibility and low cloud.
The report said:
" A number of serious airworthiness issues were identified with the helicopter during the course of the investigation. None of these could be directly linked to the cause of the accident but did raise concerns regarding the way the helicopter was operated."
Mr Weir flew regularly between his home and the mine, which attracted 60,000 visitors a year.
The report also said there was no evidence of mechanical failure and that it was "not possible to determine the mechanism by which control was lost or disorientation occurred".
