"Then away out in the woods I heard that kind of a sound that a ghost makes when it wants to tell about something that's on its mind and can't make itself understood, and so can't rest easy in its grave, and has to go about that way every night grieving."
"It is definitely the way things are going, but a year-end target sounds a bit aggressive. You have the currency issues and the accounting issues and you still have the regulatory issues, and in some countries there are issues about foreign ownership on stock. I think it's a lot easier to have foreign investors buying U.S. stocks rather than the other way around."
"today's mobile phones, with rich graphics and sound capabilities, are an ideal platform for an interactive version of Bullseye. We are really exited to be working with JAMDAT to bring this show to fans, both young and old, who are on the move."
"When a heart breaks, there isn't any sound, but an echo, that goes around carrying all those precious moments spent together."
"I love power. But it is as an artist that I love it. I love it as a musician loves his violin, to draw out its sounds and chords and harmonies."
"As you arrive the bus arrives, as you go to the station your train awaits. Everything happens for a reason, you see, hear, touch, smell and taste for a reason."

EMP-NOW 2 - Community initiative on employment and development of human resources: "Employment-NOW" (equal opportunities for women), 1994-1999
From 1994-07-01 to 1999-12-31| See all projects funded under this programme / topic
Previous programmeEMP-NOW 1
Programme fundingEUR 496 million
Official Journal ReferenceC 180 of 1994-07-01
Legislative Reference94/C180/08 of 1994-07-01
To promote equal employment opportunities for women, in particular with regard to training measures, access to future orientated occupations and to management positions.
AbstractThe NOW programme is one of four strands incorporated into the Community initiative on employment and the development of human resources; the other three are: "HORIZON" which focuses on promoting the labour market integration of the disabled; "YOUTHSTART" which is targeted at the young unemployed; and "INTEGRA" which is concerned with improving access to the labour market and the employability of vulnerable groups).
The activities contained in the NOW strand of the Employment initiative build on the success of the 1990-1993 phase of the Community programme to promote equal opportunities for women in the field of employment and vocational training (NOW), which formed an integral part of the implementation of the third medium-term programme on equal opportunities (1991 to 1995).
The programme is focused on reducing unemployment among women and to improving the position of those already in the workforce through the promotion of equal employment opportunities. In addition, the programme will support the development of strategies to respond to changes in the organization of work and changing job requirements.
The transnational dimension of the NOW programme permits a comparison of different experiences, as well as the transfer of know-how. It further reinforces the development of innovatory actions in favour of women, especially in Objective 1 areas and in sectors where such actions are at present less developed. To ensure a maximum multiplier effect, particular attention is to be given to the development of the training of trainers, as well as the structures of training programmes, methodologies and tools.
The emphasis placed under the first NOW programme on the development of strong and active partnerships at local, national and transnational level will be continued under the 1994-1999 phase of the programme. These partnerships should involve enterprises, public and private bodies responsible for training and employment, bodies responsible for equality issues, regional and local authorities, non-governmental organizations and women's' organizations, in such a way as best practice is gradually taken up and incorporated into mainstream training and employment systems. Priority is to be given to actions in which the social partners and women's organizations are actively involved at all levels.
SubdivisionEligible measures:
- Development, in particular through transnational cooperation, of appropriate training guidance, counselling and employment systems, including;
. Development of cooperation and networking between training bodies in order to promote equality of opportunities for women in the labour market;
. Strengthening of links between training bodies, higher education establishments and enterprises to improve the professional integration of women;
. Support to educational establishments for the development of innovatory educational material which improves equality for women in the labour market (Objective 1 areas only);
. Support for the creation or development of guidance/counselling and pre-training services for women;
. Support for the creation or development at local level of advisory services to facilitate the start-up of SMEs and cooperatives;
. Support for the creation or development of relevant care services infrastructure, where they are less developed (Objective 1 areas only);
- Delivery, in particular on a transnational basis, of training, including:
. Provision of a comprehensive package of flexible training and other accompanying measures, including information, guidance, counselling, pre-training, personal development, upgrading of basic skills and qualifying training, re-training, job search assistance, business traineeship and in-job support. Particular attention is to be given to job requirements, new qualifications and skills, notably in the area of RTD and innovative technologies;
. Vocational training measures, including preparatory training, geared specifically to the needs of running businesses or cooperatives;
.Training for trainers, for those responsible for personnel or for negotiating training matters within companies, in order to enhance their awareness of equality issues;
. Training in equality of opportunities for those responsible for personnel in the public sector, including educational establishments;
. Development of innovatory assessment methods to integrate within career structures all the experiences and activities carried out by women, including those that are not formally recognized, in order to promote the accreditation of prior learning;
. Initial and continuing training, especially in SMEs and sectors subject to industrial change, to adapt the female workforce to the changing labour market and to improve their career development;
. Initial and continuing training for appropriate care services personnel;
- Job creation and support, particularly through transnational cooperation, for the start up of small businesses and cooperatives by women, including:
. Development of networking and cooperation on local employment initiatives, aimed at mobilizing the capacities of women to build on local resources;
. Aid for the creation of self-employed activities, small enterprises and cooperatives;
. Aid for the setting up of financial support instruments for enterprise creation by women;
- Information dissemination and dissemination actions, particularly through transnational cooperation, including:
. Measures directed, in particular, at the Social Partners, education personnel, training and employment services, local and regional authorities and the general public to heighten awareness about the need to act in favour of equal opportunities between men and women in the labour market;
. Setting up of networks, creation or improvement of data bases and the carrying out of studies linked with the objectives of the programme and the dissemination of the results of best practice;
. Gender-related monitoring and assessment of vocational training and employment actions.
ImplementationThe activities under the NOW programme are implemented as part of the Community initiative on employment and development of human resources (EMPLOYMENT), 1995-1999.
Actions promoting equal opportunities for women are to be jointly financed by the Member States, the Community and by enterprises and other bodies as appropriate. Where employees of companies take part in the various operations covered by the programme, the enterprise concerned is required to finance an appropriate portion of their participation costs. The programme is applicable to the whole territory of the Union, although particular emphasis is placed on the needs of the less favoured regions. A number of measures, therefore, only apply to priority regions (Objectives 1, 2, 5b and 6).
The Member States were invited to present proposals for support under the NOW strand of the Employment initiative in the form of operational programmes or global grants to the Commission by 1 November 1994. In accordance with the rules covering the Structural Funds, these proposals must include a general appreciation of the situation indicating the objectives to be attained and should include a timetable, criteria and procedures for implementation, monitoring and assessment. The proposals submitted by the Member States are approved by the Commission.
Community assistance to selected proposals under the Employment initiative, is in the form of subsidies funded from a budget of ECU 1.835 billion, of which ECU 496 million is reserved for the implementation of actions under the NOW programme. Of the global budget reserved for the implementation of the Employment initiative, ECU 0.9 billion is earmarked for Objective 1 and 6 regions.
The distribution of the resources between the Member States under the programme is based on the relative severity of structural problems, including in particular relevant unemployment levels, as well as the quality of the proposals submitted for operational programmes and global grants. To encourage transnational operational programmes, two or more Member States may, on their own initiative or on the initiative of the Commission, present a single application for financial assistance.
Technical assistance under the programme may include the dissemination of information and other awareness actions, the provision of constancy and expert services, the creation or development of Community-wide networks to facilitate innovation and transnational cooperation, the development and sharing of databases on training and employment services and other aspects of labour market organization, etc.
Responsibility for implementing actions under the programme is entrusted to a single Monitoring Committee in each Member State. During and at the end of the planning period, the Commission will evaluate, in partnership with the Member States, the results of the programmes submitted. The Commission will use the targets specified by the Member States in their proposals as the main benchmark against which progress is to be assessed. The European Parliament, the Management Committee on the Community initiatives and the national Monitoring Committees shall be fully informed of the results of these evaluations and the action taken in response to them.

The 2014 Preparación Online In-Service Training for Secondary and Post-Secondary Spanish Teachers is starting soon!
DATES: September 8 – December 5, 2014
COST: $995 – A limited number of $750 Tuition Awards are available!
STRUCTURE: Self-paced in-service (with several deadlines throughout)
COMMITMENT: Approximately 5 hours per week
Upon completion, participants receive:
- Certificate of Completion of 65 Hours of Professional Development
- Turn-Key Translation and Interpretation Curriculum Units: Intro to T&I, Criminal Justice, and Healthcare Interpreting – complete with all lesson plans and materials
The University of Arizona National Center for Interpretation is looking for schools and school districts that are serious about improving the academic outcomes of their Latino students, and are interested in participating in our current project, Preparación Online. We have developed curricula and teacher in-service training that has demonstrated a transformative ability to rapidly increase Latino students'
- Academic engagement and interest in education.
- Academic performance.
- Composition proficiency.
- Reading comprehension.
- Critical thinking.
- Attendance.
- Retention and completion rates.
Preparación Online is the latest in a series of four projects carried out by the University of Arizona National Center for Interpretation designed to improve academic outcomes for Latino students at the secondary and post-secondary levels through the use of translation and interpretation training in the classroom (click on the menu bar above to learn more about each project):
- Professional Language Development Project —a summer institute for high school students.
- The Arizona Initiative for Latino Academic Success —one of the nation's few undergraduate programs in translation and interpretation.
- Preparación —teacher in-service training and turn-key curriculum for use in middle school, high school, and post-secondary Spanish and ESL classrooms
- Preparación Online —Online teacher in-service reaching out to schools nationally.
What these projects have in common is relevant, cognitively challenging curricula that inspire students to tap into their language and culture, empowering them to excel academically, and enable them to pursue postsecondary education.
NPR's Morning Edition recently (Feb 1, 2008) captured the excitement the Preparación T&I curriculum generates in both students and teachers alike and students' newfound academic engagement and aspirations towards higher education.
These projects have been primarily funded through grants awarded by the U.S. Department of Education's Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE). Additional support has been provided by Mrs. Agnese Haury and the Haury Trust, as well as the University of Arizona.

Did you know that people eat dark chocolate on purpose? I'm sure you did. In fact, you are probably one of them. Why?
If you ever happen to run into me on the street, I'd be more than happy to show you my hoppy beer/dry wine/dark chocolate face. It's not pretty, which is saying a lot considering how ridiculously good looking I am.
I've probably mentioned this before, but I take requests for friends' birthdays. This month, the birthday boy mentioned his love of Tim Tams, which I have procured before but are not currently available around here. Fortunately, my friend's birthday coincided with workshops at my office, and a very generous client who was attending the workshops schlepped a few packages of Dark Chocolate Mint Tim Tam biscuits over from Australia.

I'm still nervous since I lost one between the boys at 10 weeks. That baby had a slow heart rate (70) and the heart beat wasn't a steady rhythm. So I feel better since yesterday's u/s showed perfect heart rate of 167. Trying to take comfort in the statistic that the odds of miscarrying after seeing a normal heart beat is less than 1% and get excited.

TSA against arming screeners after LAX shooting — How to sell road tolling — Highway Trust Fund stares into the abyss — Groups urge in-flight phone call ban
Featuring Kevin Robillard and Kathryn A. Wolfe
TSA DOESN'T WANT TO BEAR ARMS: The TSA is rejecting calls to arms its security screeners in the wake of the fatal shooting last year at Los Angeles International Airport, the first such killing of an on-duty screener. A 26-page report ( http://1.usa.gov/1dsDPwb) issued yesterday recommends that local and airport police forces station armed personnel at checkpoints during peak times and maintain a presence at ticket counters as well.
Story Continued Below
Kevin has some context on the idea of police being stationed at checkpoints compared to patrolling the terminal: "Months earlier, LAX officials had decided to have officers patrol entire terminals instead of standing guard at checkpoints. The decision put them in line with most airports around the country: According to a chart included in Wednesday's report, only 51 of the 447 airports that the TSA protects station law enforcement at security checkpoints. About a quarter of them — 118 — don't have any police officers directly assigned to the airport." Read on for more: http://politi.co/1gZ43S2
AFGE wants armed screeners: American Federation of Government Employees President J. David Cox in a statement: "Only an armed law enforcement unit within TSA can ensure the constant and consistent presence of sufficient law enforcement resources needed in the immediate area of the checkpoints and other key locations in order to prevent another tragedy like the one that occurred at LAX."
Hill reaction: Rep. Richard Hudson, who will chair a subcommittee hearing at the airport tomorrow, said there's a "lot to like" in the TSA report, including the fact that it doesn't recommend arming TSA workers. "I think it's good at this point that they haven't been prescriptive," Hudson said. "I think that's one of the bigger questions we need to look at." Rep. Bennie Thompson, the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, said he's still worried about TSA's ability to communicate with first responders.
SNEAK PEEKS AT WHAT'S OUT TODAY — Making the case for tolling: Tolling provides a fairly simple and straightforward way to charge for needed improvements to some parts of the country's ailing road network, but it faces stiff opposition in the American public and on Capitol Hill. Today the Reason Foundation's Robert Poole puts out a new study, "Value-Added Tolling," that includes five recommendations to boost public opinion of tolling. "The overall principle is that tolling only be introduced when and where it creates a better deal for highway users than the status quo," Poole writes. The ideas, in short: only start tolling after road improvements have been made, ensure the money raised is not used elsewhere, charge only enough to maintain the highway, use tolls to replace other user fees and "provide a better level of service than what prevails on the highways where tolling is introduced."

If your car is recalled… Take it in for service! That's the moral of a new report from the data wing of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety that looked at noncrash fires in vehicles that were recalled compared to ones that weren't. Obviously, the recalled ones had more fires — but that was the case even after the recall, indicating that some people didn't bring their car in for repair. http://bit.ly/1hYRW9O
THROWBACK THURSDAY. Thanks for reading POLITICO's Morning Transportation, your daily tipsheet on trains, planes, automobiles and ports, where today is the 37th anniversary of the deadliest aviation accident in history. Two Boeing 747s collided on the runway as one was taking off in heavy fog on the Canary Island of Tenerife, killing 583 people and leading to several major safety changes like the standardization of language used by pilots and air traffic controllers. Please be in touch: firstname.lastname@example.com and @AdamKSnider.

** It's a fact: Public transportation drives growth, attracts development and builds greater value along its corridors. So restaurants find diners, landlords find renters, families find local pharmacies, employers attract employees and those employees find good jobs and valuable places to live. Visit publictransportation.org. **
HIGHWAY TO HELL FOR HIGHWAY TRUST FUND: The fund that pays for road, bridge and transit projects won't actually "bounce checks," as Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx likes to warn as he prods lawmakers to act. But with the money set to run dry this July, there's still a lot on the line. It would "cause a complete calamity in transportation and infrastructure funding," former Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood told MT. States around the country rely on the federal program, which would virtually shut down later this year unless Congress allots billions of dollars. Michael Lewis, director of the Rhode Island DOT (who just so happens to be testifying at today's Senate EPW hearing on the reauthorization) cautioned that his state's only road and bridge funding program is one that simply matches the federal program. "We have the potential of missing an entire construction season," he said in an interview. Pick up today's POLITICO paper or click through for the full story from yours truly, including what exactly happens when the fund runs low and why the fund's balance is so hard to keep track of: http://politico.pro/1jLy1fE
Speaking of… AASHTO has a new tool meant to inform and engage the public on the need to address the funding crisis. "Nation at a Crossroads" is a webpage with informative graphics that tell the story of what's wrong with the HTF and what's needed to fix it. Check it out: http://bit.ly/1m6Ughz
SILENCE PLEASE: The Global Business Travel Association and the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO have both filed comments with DOT urging a ban on in-flight cell phone calls. The TTD letter ( http://bit.ly/1ln9hi5) cites a number of issues like making it harder for crew to communicate with passengers and consistent public opposition. The union group also said terrorists might communicate with a call phone call, advising DOT to work with DHS "to analyze any and all security issues the practice would create." Separately, the FCC is considering a change that would clear in-flight cell calls, though the comment period was recently extended until May 16. More on the GBTA filing: http://bit.ly/NW4JAr
BREAKING BREAD: The Trucking Moves America Forward alliance was formally unveiled yesterday at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Ky., complete with a 40-second video ad ( http://bit.ly/1iBCHpa). The group, which formed months ago with the goal of creating a unified voice for the trucking industry, appears to have accomplished its goal in one key way — OOIDA is now a member, joining the ATA and a slew of industry, supplier and other companies and associations that are members. OOIDA and ATA have never agreed on much, so having them at the table together marks a significant diplomatic step forward and has added significance in light of the recent public sparring between trucking and railroad interests. D.C. firm Story Partners is running the new TMAF campaign. More on the launch: http://bit.ly/1g21WMX
BACK-TO-BACK FOR BARRA AND FRIEDMAN: A Senate Commerce panel has formally scheduled its hearing on the GM recall and NHTSA's response to reports of ignition problems. The consumer protection panel, chaired by Sen. Claire McCaskill, will hold a hearing on April 2, the day after GM CEO Mary Barra and acting NHTSA head David Friedman testify before a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee. http://1.usa.gov/1l5oNMV
NTSB SENDS ADVISORY ABOUT LANDING AT THE WRONG AIRPORT: The NTSB has issued a "safety alert" for pilots with tips on avoiding landing at the wrong airport. It happens more often than you might think — according to a review of records by the AP, there have been 150 times since the early 1990s that a commercial plane has landed at, or been on approach to, the wrong airport. The alert comes in response to two incidents last year, both of which happened at night. A Southwest Airlines flight from Chicago landed at the wrong airport in Branson, Mo. and a Boeing 747 Dreamlifter cargo plane flying from New York landed at the wrong airport in Wichita, Kan. See the advisory: http://1.usa.gov/1jLcio8
STAFF NEWS: ATA has announced the hiring of Chris Spear as vice president and chief of legislative affairs. Spear, who has worked at Nelson Mullins, Honeywell and the Department of Labor, will oversee the trucking firm's legislative affairs office on the Hill.

** Public transportation powers community growth through driving economic development and revitalizing neighborhoods. Public transportation's broad economic impact allows us to turn every dollar invested in public transit into four dollars of economic growth. That's billions of dollars and millions of jobs today as we update and improve our nation's infrastructure and build into the future. As public transportation ridership grows, public transit systems are increasingly strained and are in dire need of investment. After years of neglect, the infrastructure that American communities and businesses rely on to grow and prosper is crumbling. Will this continue, or will we seize the opportunity to invest in our infrastructure for long term growth? For a nation that has always sought out ever-smarter ways to connect and thrive, what's been true for a century is true today: where public transportation goes, community grows.

Posted on 01/06/2011 11:48:54 PM PST by smokingfrog
A Framingham SWAT team member yesterday was placed on administrative leave for fatally shooting a 68-year-old grandfather of 12, police said, as relatives struggled to cope with the sudden and violent death.
I was shocked, said grandson Andrew Wilkins, 23, of Springfield, who fondly recalled playing pickup basketball in Cambridge with Eurie Stamps. I just didnt understand what transpired. What exactly caused a situation like that to happen?
Early Tuesday morning, police raided the home at 26 Fountain St. as part of a multiweek drug investigation and shot Stamps, who was not the target of the investigation, according to police reports. Two 20-year-old men were arrested on drug charges. No weapons were recovered at the scene.
Framingham police declined to release any details about the officer on leave.

I'm thinkin' that by the time I'm 67 I'm going to stop with the crack house stops.
how could something like this ever go down in a liberal utopia?
This damn swat crap has got to stop. There is no reason for this shit. Neither person had a record, the only thugs involved here are the ones carrying the machine guns.
Sounds like someone/swat team member murdered the wrong person who was defenseless.When is this nonsense going to stop in America?
uhhh well, one was on parole, how do you do that without a record... still it was most clumsily executed.
It's funny how the DA protects cops/the gangsters but when it comes to a citizen they would be in jail with a half million dollar bond.Mistakes are crimes also Mr.DA.
The man was out on bail that normally means a charge not a conviction. They stormed the house after they arrested the clown out side.
I'm sure you forgot the 'sarcasm' tag.
It happens all the time! We have had several innocent people killed. One was a wood carver and another was a older gentleman was killed in his corvette when officers fired a taser at him and his corvette lurched forward away from the police the police officer fired his weapon and killed him. The victim was intoxicated I might add and he had not left the establishments parking lot! The wood carver was crossing the street when an officer yelled at him to drop his knife at which time the officer shot and killed him!
Cops are gun happy.
This crap has to stop. Don't these morons realize that people actually leave their houses? Arrest them outside.
SWAT should only be used for hostage situations, bomb threats, and acts of terror.
I guess there wasn't a dog on the scene to shoot.
It well stop when we do away with this stuip war on drugs.
The war on drugs has been respondsible for a huge decline in are rights.
The study was done by having a "panel" apply what they thought was a painful electrical shock to a volunteer test subject. When they were face-to-face with the subject, there was a lot of stress. When they wore masks, they didn't hesitate.
No it won't. You'll never be able to take away the tanks, machine guns, kevlar, grenades, etc. The cat is out of the bag and from now on, it will be "us" against "them", a police state.
the fact that they caught at least one, OUTSIDE the house BEFORE commencing entry tells me they were determined to practice a forced entry and terrorize the old guy for the audacity of tryin to be a grandpa and helpin his family...
i wonder if the cop went to vegas for the weekend, with 'administrative leave' pay of course...???
almost forgot...IBFReedumbwarrior enlightens us and sniffs cop jocks...
Yes. I'm wondering the same thing. Why do they need an army to arrest a couple of crack heads?

If you have read our wedding photography blog before, you probably know that one of our signature shots is the bridal party jumping up in the air. We cannot remember how it all started, and it usually isn't something we or the bridal party plan in advance. What normally happens is that at the end of this beautiful event called wedding, everyone's so happy and high on the good vibe that it becomes the most natural thing to do – let's all do the jump .
Well, today you will see another jump. This time, it's not just any jump, but the one that was voted the best we ever took on our Facebook Page. You can see all the entries here. This title belongs to the Joneses, Margaret and Neil, who everyone else struggled to keep up with .
Margaret had a lovely dress, which I described to my wife when I got home after the wedding as either off white, champagne or beige . Marina knows that I'm still not very good at wedding dress colours, but I'm working on it . Margaret paired the dress with a sensible pair of lovely flat shoes, she was definitely more comfortable and mobile than a high-heeled bride.
Both the wedding ceremony and reception were held at the Burswood Park Golf Course, a very nice venue, particularly for ceremonies with its lovely manicured lawns and interesting roof structures that we wedding photographers like to use for our backdrops. In between the ceremony and reception, we went for some location wedding photography to a nearby park within the high-rise apartment complex called The Peninsula, Burswood. We just love these location shots, which shows that you don't have to have a grand background to get great photos.
The Joneses had the most original cake ever – pink and chocolate doughnuts!

Rohwer and Jerome were established in March 1942 and served as the War Relocation Authority's easternmost camp sites. The two camps would eventually house nearly 18,000 people. Jerome, located in Drew County, operated the shortest amount of time of any of the 10 camps, from Oct. 6, 1942, to June 30, 1944. All that remains of the camp is a smokestack from the camp's laundry remains. A granite marker commemorates the camp's location. Rohwer is located in Desha County. The camp was opened Sept. 18, 1942, and did not close until Nov. 30, 1945, making it one of the last camps to cease operation. The location has several commemorative markers and a small cemetery. The site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been designated a National Historic Landmark. CONTACT: www.facebook.com/WWIIJapaneseAmericanInternmentMuseum

USDA Issues Rule on Importing Horses from CEM-Affected Countries
- Feb 13, 2013
- Topics:
The USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is making final its interim rule regarding the importation of horses from countries affected with contagious equine metritis (CEM).
"These certification and testing requirements, in addition to our existing import regulations, will strengthen protections for horses in the United States," said John R. Clifford, DVM, USDA's chief veterinary officer and deputy administrator for APHIS' Veterinary Services program.
APHIS took this action after reviewing probable causes of CEM outbreaks in the United States. This review identified the need to strengthen testing protocol for horses arriving from CEM-affected countries, and the final rule includes changes based on comments received on the interim rule issued in March 2011.
APHIS will now have additional entry requirements for imported horses based on age. Yearlings and weanlings must not have been bred to other horses, either through artificial insemination or live breeding, from the time they were tested for CEM until export. Test mares, imported mares, and imported stallions above a certain age are now required to undergo an additional CEM test that will help improve the accuracy of final test results. These actions outlined in the final rule will provide additional safeguards against the introduction of CEM through the importation of affected horses.
CEM is a transmissible, exotic venereal disease in horses. It usually results in infertility in mares and, on rare occasions, can cause mares to spontaneously abort. Infected stallions exhibit no clinical signs but can carry the CEM bacteria for years. CEM is commonly transmitted during sexual intercourse but can also be transmitted indirectly through artificial insemination or contact with contaminated hands or objects. It can be treated with disinfectants and antibiotics.
The final rule can be found by visiting www.aphis.usda.gov.
The final rule was published in the Feb. 12 edition of the Federal Register and became effective upon publication.

About Me
It used to be travelling, now moving more towards theatre.
Friendly, open-minded, very easygoing. I've lived in Paris for the past 10 years, but I'm British, from south-west England. I've just finished training at a theatre school, and I teach English in companies and at university to pay my rent.
Lève-toi et sors dans le vaste monde!
There is something to be learned from every experience.
Bisyor safar bayad ta pokhte shavad khami!
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Hosting at the moment, and looking forward to surfing again!
I've surfed and met up with people in most countries between the Balkans and Kazakhstan, and we've been hosting people in Paris since 2008.
New experiences, discovering new countries and cultures, meeting interesting people. Learning new things. Trying to communicate with people with gestures and a phrasebook. Picking up words on the go.
Theatre, ninjutsu, snowboarding, windsurfing. Traditional folktales. History. Drinks with friends, apéros. Being in the mountains. Trekking. Sleeping under the stars.
Paris in the sunshine.
The feeling when you get when you walk out of the door not knowing where you'll sleep that night.
The stories people tell, the little slices of life we share.

Music, Movies, and Books
All sorts, I read a lot. Here's a few:
Books: La faim du tigre, Océan Mer, The Naked and the Dead, The Catcher in the Rye, I Served the King of England, Catch 22, Kim, Malevil, Eastern Approaches, Maximum City. Readable history books. Old travel narratives or autobiographies. Decent sci-fi.
Authors: Iain Banks, Philip Pullman, Garth Nix, Roald Dahl, China Mieville, Amin Maalouf, Joe Abercrombie, Ismail Kadere, Tom Holland. I like going to second-hand bookshops and looking for translations of foreign authors.
Films: The Lives of Others, Little Miss Sunshine, Persepolis, Pan's Labyrinth, Children of Men, Howl's Moving Castle, Spy Game. Many others!
Series: Utopia, House of Cards, Homeland, The Wire, Sherlock, The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones.
Music, anything and everything. I listen to the radio a lot, normally www.fip.fr. Except in our kitchen, where the only station we can get is Radio Courtoisie - French Catholic fundementalists. It's good for laughs.
At the moment listening to: Nina Simone, The Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash, and the soundtrack to the film I'm Not There. And I've swiped one of my housemates' entire music collection, so a lot of Chanson Française and French stuff I've never heard of. And Jaques Brel!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
The kindness and hospitality shown to me by complete strangers, without the expectation of anything in return.
I was once (temporarily) marooned on an island in Fiji. The young children had never seen white people before, and they would sneak up behind us, touch us and then run away as fast as their little legs could carry them.
Teach, Learn, Share
My travel objective is to experience new things and to learn. I want to come back from each trip knowing a bit more about the language, history and culture of the place I've been to.
I'll be happy to share what I know about my own culture, and I've been an English teacher off and on for about 6 years.
What I Can Share with Hosts
English pudding.
Countries I've Visited
Albania, Armenia, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Montenegro, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Romania, Serbia, Spain, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan

Kid-friendly rainy day activities
When the sun is shining that means it's time to go outside and play! But how do you keep kids entertained and prevent them from becoming couch potatoes on a rainy day? We're here to help!

Stay-at-home activities:
1. Build a fort: This timeless childhood activity can be made even better by turning it into a bonafide campout in the living room, made complete with story-telling and s'mores of course.

We also recommend looking up origami videos on Youtube for step by step instructions. Two origami channels we recommend are "Rob's World" and "Jo Nakashima".
4. Enhance family photos using Photofy: Create a brand new customized family photo album by helping your kids upload a family photo to the Photofy app and watch them experiment with the many tools and options the app enables them with. Family photos will become works of art right before your eyes!

Kandhakottai Trailer (2009)
19 December 2009 Action, Romance 2 mins
Siva (Nakul) is a nice guy who doesn't believe in the concept of love. True to his hatred, he also doesn't hesitate to go and break up love birds. Pooja (Poorna) on the other hand believes strongly in the force of love and does whatever she can to ensure that lovers get united. The story takes a turn when Siva's sister falls in love with Pooja's cousin. As expected, Siva tries to break the couple while Pooja unites them. Finally, Siva gives up and at the same time, he develops feelings for Pooja. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.

Say Goodbye
Matt Simons
This is my first tab and I was hoping that experts could contribute in on this as I tried figuring out the chords by ear but couldn't identify all the chords exactly. Perhaps some more music savvy people can help make this a good tab. I am no expert guitar player at all so I hope you don't mind if you notice some of the chords aren't correct, but here is what I thought sort of sounded decent. Capo on 1 Intro: G Em7 x3 G G C Em Am Stay up lately while she's sleeping by my side. G C Em Am Still heartbroken by the way that lovers lie. G C Em Am I used to need her now it's hard to recall why. Am C G I think it's time to say goodbye.* G C Em Am How many days she did not call and did not write. G C Em Am All we've been through I never treated her unkind G C Em Am Could not be bothered as she watched me lose my mind. Am C G She can take her precious time. C G D But I still believe in love. C G D Visions of a girl that I've been dreaming of. C G B7 G D C Can't remember when exactly time was on my side. ** C G Em7 x3 I think it's time to say goodbye. G C Em Am It can be said that I'm naive and lack foresight. G C Em Am A firm believer in strong will and appetite. G C Em Am How many years now since they gave up that good fight. Am C G They'd bark but could not bite. C G D But I still believe in truth. C G D Words that once they're heard do not require proof. C G B7 G D C I still remember when it was that words were on my side. C G Em7 G I think it's time to say goodbye. C G D C G D C G B7 G D C C G G Em7 x3 G G C Em Am How many parties and rooftop lonely nights. G C Em Am How many girls how many fancy evening flights. G C Em Am Do I lay down before I get you off my sights. Am C G It's been hard to feel alright. C G D But I still believe in love. C G D Visions of a life that I've been dreaming off. C G B7 G D C I can't remember when exactly time was on my side. C G Em7 G But I can finally say goodbye. C Em Am G D *** Oh. C G Em7 x3 I can finally say goodbye. *: I know there is more going on in this part, but my meager guitar skills can't figure out which chords are being played. **: It's probably not those chords after the B7, if even the B7 is correct at all. ***: Something like that, maybe?

Some days I feel like I'm drowning under my to-do list. Spending time with my kids verses getting things done are constantly battling over my time.
I have two energetic kids that love to play. I also have a house to clean. And a body to take care of. And bills to pay. And people to take care of.
You get the idea.
Most days I have three things I try to accomplish:
- spend more time with the kids
- keep the house somewhat presentable
- exercise
It's difficult to do well at all three of these on the same day. If I do really well with spending quality time with the kids, the house gets ignored. When I do well to get the laundry put away, I haven't spent much quality time with the kids.
Do you struggle trying to balance life like I do? You're not alone. Recently I figured out a way to play with the kids, clean & exercise at the same time!
The trick is simple, really.
Just play tag.
I know. It sounds crazy but hang with me. Here's how it works:
Let's say I have a mountain of dishes to clean up in the kitchen. I instigate a game of tag with my kids. Each time I run by the sink, I put a few clean dishes away. Then I run around and try to tag one of my little hooligans.
Once I'm "it" again, I start putting the dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Then I run around tag my kids, get some exercise, and laugh with my little ones. We have a blast!
Next thing you know, that mountain of dishes is all put away, I got a great cardio workout playing tag, and I've spent some good time chasing and laughing with my kids.
That's what I call multitasking!
To see how it's done in action watch this:
Play With The Kids, Clean, and Exercise At The Same Time!
It's important to remember that it doesn't have to be perfect. Some of the dishes may get thrown in the cabinet but that's okay! Making fun memories with your little ones is more important than perfectly placed dinnerware.
I hope this little tip makes balancing your life a little easier!
What helps you get more done everyday? Do you have any multi-tasking tips to share? If so, leave a comment and let me know!

We do "Freeze Dance Party Clean-up". I put on an upbeat Pandora station or CD and we start cleaning up. Dancing around the room on the way to put something away is strongly encouraged. Randomly, I'll pause the song and everyone has to freeze in the exact position as they were when the music stopped. My boys think it is great fun, and it makes cleaning go so fast!

I'm so accident prone I feel like I would break something ( either dishes or myself ) doing this lol. It looks very fun if you can do it though.
This sounds like the perfect idea! I'm going to have to try it. I always feel so guilty trying to clean instead of spending time with S.

Great idea! When I take our little guy to the park, I try to always be moving. I don't sit on a bench and watch him play. I follow along, watching him to make sure he is being safe but also, I'm moving. Gotta stat moving!

Star Bulk Updates Employment Status of Star Beta

ICI has assigned its rights and obligations under the sub-charter to Star Bulk in exchange for it being released from the remaining term of the ICI charter.

Photo lnterview
Name: Martin Stranka
Age: 32
Birthday: 13. April
College: self-taught photographer
Favorite Color: Black
Favorite Book: my life
Favorite Movie: The Fountain (by Darren Aronofsky)
Favorite Food: sushi
Favorite Quote: Be yourself, loved by a few and not understood by the rest.
For how long have been in photography? How did you start?
I started taking photos 9 years ago. It was unfortunately due to sad life accident when my partner died in a sea. Something had to end, something new started. It was a massive shock for me and I was looking for balance and relief somewhere. So I chose photography.
How would you define yourself as an artist?
Sometimes I think about title artist. Who is an artist? When you become an artist? Is it moment when you make an art for living? It is a question. I am kind of mindless traveler through my own reality.
Where do you find inspiration?
I know it could sound simple but I find it in daily moments. In my life, in daily basic moments like light, smells, smell of autumn, flowers – mainly trees, sunsets, stuff floating in the air like dust and leaves, and so many other basically simple things we can see every day. Music is massive inspiration of course.
Is Brainstorming not the only creative method use to create new concepts?
I dont use brainstorming. New concept comes as it comes. I dont prepare my photo shootings many days before. I create when I feel I need to. It is so natural for me like eating or sleeping.
Please could you tell us about photography and digital technology?
Technology is only a tool. I always say the best tools are our mind and eyes. Close your eyes in order to see. Close your eyes and you can create anything you want.
What type of camera do you use most?
Canon 5D mark III
What is your favorite lens?
Canon 24-70 II f2,8 L
What has been your most memorable assignment and why?
Well, I was creating a book cover for best selling New York Times author and their requirements was quite difficult for me because I was taking photos only 3 years at this time. But we made it.
What are your favourite three images you have shot recently?
How important is an awesome website for your business?
We live in new era of self-presentation. It is so nice to have a good looking "product" but you have to promote it well too. So yes, it is important.
What's the most important quality a photographer needs to have?
It is his own inner world which creates his own style. This is what makes you different among others.
Which of your projects has given you the most satisfaction?
Itis obviously my endless project called "I Found The Silence" http://www.martinstranka.com/ifoundthesilence I have been working since the beginning of my journey. It is 9 years and I still add new photos there. Maybe I do not want to close it as finished. It is my daily diary.
List of your clients?
Who are the photographer's you admire the most?
Honestly, I am not so much inspired by other photographers. I am more under influence of nowadays painters like Jeremmy Geddes and this unknown artist: http://xhxix.tumblr.com
What about designers?
I will be patriotic and mention our still quite young designer Maxim Velcovsky.
What are your next projects?
Now I am working on my new born project called "Blackless"http://www.martinstranka.com/blackless so I am looking forward to see what appear here.
