Man, it was hilarious.....the guy they were trying to make-over was a Korean living in NYC....a golf studies major at Columbia U. He had a Thai gf(looked very Korean though), and he wanted to impress her. Well, the guys had a field day in his apt. They found a bag of those dried anchovies, and were throwing them at each other, saying YUCK...and then the guy discovered ramyon packets, and said it wasn't food. He then went on the balcony and found a huge container of kimchi, and they smelled it and said it was gross. He was also making some sort of chigae...and they were looking at that too wondering what the hell it was. The guy said his gf liked "exotic food" like Italian....haha. So they taught him to make something Morrocan for dinner...which she hated...and fed to the dog. He also had one of those Yorkie sweater wearing dogs....so typically Korean. The dog was urinating everywhere, and chewed up his new shoes they got him. He said his mom sent him clothes from Korea(don't know how they fit him, he was big) The funniest part was when he learned to do Thai massage. He tried to do it on her at the end of things, and all she did was complain. He tried to roll himself across her body...he weighed like 200 lbs and she weighed about 90lbs. Then he tried to stick his foot in her armpit while pulling on her arm....and his feet stunk, b/c he didn't wash... It was just a crazy funny episode...everything about it made me laugh.

Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, and Lord Kelvin are remembered as unimpeachable geniuses.
But over the course of their careers, they each made tremendous errors — not just faulty equations, but fundamental misunderstandings. In Brilliant Blunders, Mario Livio showcases those failures and the surprising discoveries they led to.
"Science is presented as this direct march to the truth," said Livio, a NASA astrophysicist. "Being a scientist myself, I know that's very far from the truth. So I really wanted to give this picture of the zig-zag path with lots of false starts."
Take Einstein, for instance. When he was working on his theory of General Relativity in 1917, he thought that the universe was static — it wasn't expanding or collapsing.
"But he knew that there is gravity everywhere," said Livio. "Everything attracts everything else. So how can it be static? It should just be collapsing."
To account for his belief that the universe was static and in equilibrium, he came up with a "cosmological constant," a number that would represent a kind of repelling force that would counteract gravity, and he added that to his equations for General Relativity.
In the late 1920s, astronomers discovered that the universe was actually expanding. According to Livio, "Once Einstein heard that, he said, 'but wait a second, if it's all expanding, I don't need this accurate balance because all that gravity would do is slow down that expansion.'"
Livio said Einstein regretted adding that cosmological constant to his equations and he pulled it out.
By the end of the century, however, scientists would conclude that the universe was not only expanding, but the expansion was actually accelerating.
"As far as we can tell," Livio explained, "the thing that's driving this speeding up is precisely that extra repulsive term that Einstein put originally into his equations."
In other words, Einstein was right from the start, but didn't know it. And when he thought he had fixed his equations, he actually made them worse.
Livio thinks the popular, but as-yet-unproven, concept of string theory could be the blunder of our generation of physicists. Livio wouldn't mind if that were the case.
"Very interesting mathematics and ideas have been developed, so I think even if it turns out to be a blunder, it will most likely be a brilliant one," he said.
"One of the problems with blunders is that you can only tell that they are blunders after the fact."

Cancer is a disease which can affect all animals across the tree of life. Certain species have undergone natural selection to reduce or prevent cancer. Mechanisms to block cancer may include, among others, a species possessing additional paralogues of tumor suppressor genes, or decreasing the number of oncogenes within their genome. To understand cancer prevention patterns across species, I developed a bioinformatic pipeline to identify copies of 545 known tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes across 63 species of mammals. I used phylogenetic regressions to test for associations between cancer gene copy numbers and a species' life history. I found a …

Often, when I finish with a book, I want to burn it. Not really! But I do love this magnifying glass that doubles as an emergency lighter.
The Magnifire Reader or Firestarter from Kikkerland has a 2.5 x Fresnel lens capable of both blowing up text, and setting it alight -- hence the nod to the Zippo's form factor. It's just an all around gorgeous little object that, at $US7, seems like it would make a great glovebox tool for both detailed map reading and emergency situations. [Kikkerland]

Sacrificed At the Alter Of Obama: CIA Assets Ordered to "Stand Down" During Libya Attacks; Delta Force Spec Ops Waited For Hours For Deployment Orders
Mac Slavo
October 26th, 2012
It's a month after the incident in Bengzahi, Libya and the Obama administration is still trying to shift blame and responsibility.
First, the President claimed the attacks were nothing more than a riot that got out of control as a result of a video that insulted the religion of Islam. This narrative was shot full of holes almost immediately, because as we know, a CIA safehouse, which no random rioters could have possibly known about, was also attacked.
Then we were told by the State department and others that this was an Al Queda cell that we had no prior knowledge of. Except, of course, the Ambassador, as well as military leaders in the area, called for additional security assistance days and weeks BEFORE the attacks. None was granted.
Finally, we were told that there was no way for anyone to know what was going on at the time of the attacks, a story that Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta is sticking to even today. Except that there were two (2) drones in the air observing the incident in real time. Not only that, but military assets, including the Delta Force special operations teams, were standing by ready to deploy within minutes, yet they were told to wait – for what? – we can't imagine.
An exclusive report from FoxNews now claims that the situation was much more clear than the administration has made it out to be, and that repeated real-time calls for assistance, while drones surveyed the area, were ignored.

The Tortuga Music Festival is hitting Fort Lauderdale beach this weekend. And with it comes an eclectic mix of performers, from country music stars like Kenny Chesney to modern hippies like Michael Franti & Spearhead and Ben Harper.
So it should come as no surprise that concertgoers will include a mix of environmentalists, rock aficionados, country fans, and a bunch of people looking to get wasted and have a good time.
Not exactly the champagne-sipping crowd of the W.
That being said, we've decided to compile a list of Fort Lauderdale's best places to party after the festival.

- Plan Burrito: the New Spot on Fort Lauderdale Beach
- Ten Best Place to Party in Fort Lauderdale for Spring Break
10. Original Fat Cat's For anyone looking to get away from other festivalgoers or the ridiculous tourists of the beach, this could just be your option. Live cover bands, great beer selection, dark atmosphere, and local crowd make this spot a prime location postfestival. For those looking to soak up the booze, the spot does not serve food, but there are multiple greasy options in the downtown vicinity. 9. LuLu's Bait Shack One of the ever-so-slightly less-touristy spots to inhabit Beach Place, Lulu's is a great option for those who want to keep on looking at the ocean. The bar features nightly live music and drink specials -- Saturday night, it's offering $17 Camarena margarita fishbowls and $5 Camarena margaritas. And if you're looking to wash down those fishbowls with a bit of food, the spot serves Cajun-style bar delicacies like catfish fingers ($8.95), blackened chicken nachos ($12.95), and alligator bites ($9.95) 8. Quarterdeck You've been dancing and drinking all day: it's probably about time to stuff your face. For anyone looking to chill out and sober up -- slightly, that is -- postfestival, Quarterdeck on the beach is probably your best bet. With numerous drink specials, outdoor tables, a laid-back environment, and, well, food, this would be your place to keep the party going while kicking back to relax. Keep an eye out for the $10.99 specials: Saturday it's a half rack of baby back ribs and fried shrimp; Sunday it's full rack. 7. Poorhouse For those of you searching for more music, this is the place to be. On a side street off of downtown Fort Lauderdale's Himmarshee Street, it's the ultimate spot to find tattooed, local music lovers throwing back beers while listening to live sets. The typical dark dive bar offers a wide range of beers and some new bar snacks. 6. Elbo Room Any visit to Fort Lauderdale would be incomplete without a stop at this institution. The bar climbed to fame with the crazy antics of Fort Liquordale's historic and notorious spring break. While the city has changed over the years, this spot has not. It's still just as rowdy and filled with drunks now as it ever was. If you're looking to keep the drinks flowing after the festival, this should be your spot. Note to the wise: Plan your bathroom trips before you arrive. 5. Parrot Lounge This beach-area neighborhood bar specializes in food, fun, and libation. At least, that's what it says above the door. The Parrot Lounge has been serving locals since 1970. While it might be more of a sports bar -- with a rather strong Philly connection -- it gets going later on. Just one block west of the beach, it's a great spot to grab a beer, a bite to eat, and probably a couple of shots. 4. Bahia Cabana Looking for a real slice of old Fort Lauderdale culture? Bahia Cabana is what it's all about. The waterfront bar has been taking care of locals for ages. The classic outdoor bar is filled with boating-inspired memorabilia: buoys, life rafts, lines, you name it. Nightly live music -- think Jimmy Buffett-inspired -- and two-for-one rumrunners and piña coladas make this the ultimate "tropical getaway" after the festival. 3. Treasure Trove After getting dirty and grimy in the heat of the festival all day long, it's rather fitting to head to a dirty and grimy beach bar. And we do mean this in the kindest terms. The "Trove," as locals like to call it, is one of your classic hole-in-the-wall beach bars. Nautical knickknacks and liquor promotions decorate the walls of this open-air bar. Whether you want to grab a bite to eat or just dance to live music, the Treasure Trove is a great spot within stumbling distance of the festival grounds. 2. Dirty Blondes Probably one of the most densely-packed local's bars on the beach, Dirty Blondes is a gamer's -- and drinker's -- wet dream. The large bar is filled with bar games, pool tables, and videogames galore. And the place is booming. While you're not going to find live music or food, for that matter, you're going to find a rowdy drunken party crowd. And that might be just the answer to your all-day drinking festival needs. 1. McSorley's Everyone loves an Irish pub. And this is one of the best in town. While you're not going to find yourself any bangers and mash or shepherd's pie -- the bar does not serve food -- you're definitely going to find yourself a good time. The three-story bar packs itself full of patrons every Friday and Saturday nights. And just like the Irish, these people want to get their drink on. If you're looking to keep the party going, this is your spot.

Previously posted at: https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/president-johnson-announces-bombing-halt
In a televised address to the nation five days before the presidential election, President Lyndon B. Johnson announces that on the basis of developments in the Paris peace negotiations, he has ordered the complete cessation of "all air, naval, and artillery bombardment of North Vietnam." Accordingly, effective November 1, the U.S. Air Force called a halt to the air raids on North Vietnam known as Operation Rolling Thunder.
The President further disclosed that Hanoi had finally agreed to allow the South Vietnamese government to participate in the peace talks. Johnson said that the United States would consent to a role for the National Liberation Front, though he stated that the latter concession "in no way involves recognition of the National Liberation Front in any form." The National Liberation Front (or Viet Cong, as it was more popularly known) was the classic Communist front organization that included both Communists and non-Communists who had banded together in opposition against the Saigon regime. Domestically, President Johnson's action drew widespread acclaim; both major presidential candidates expressed their full support. The reaction in Saigon, however, was much more subdued; President Thieu issued a communiqué declaring that the United States had acted unilaterally in its decision to halt the bombing.

UCLG World Council meeting on the 5th World Water Forum took place on November 27 at Hilton Convention Center, İstanbul. As the title "Urban" is not really defining the consensus and excluding the non – urban inhabitance areas under the administration of the local authorities, the recommended title was revised to "Istanbul Water Consensus".
As a whole the Consensus was reshaped like a "to do list" in regards to comments. Regarding the Part II of the documents (targets, commitments etc....), the decision was to keep it in the present status but to call for comments on this part until mid-January.
On the 30th of November, Mayor of Istanbul, Kadir Topbaş presented the last reviewed and approved version of Istanbul Water Consensus. The Consensus was than disseminated among the 300 members of UCLG World Council.
After months of collaborative work, a first draft list of the Forum's approximately 100 sessions can now be consulted online. The sessions have been enriched by the more than 700 contributions received from all over the world. You can follow progress of the thematic development through the Forum's Virtual Meeting Space. Through this tool, you can provide your comments and suggestions to help answer the key questions that will shape the 5th World Water Forum.

The Children's World Water Forum tradition was established in Kyoto at the 3rd World Water Forum, where some 109 children, from 32 countries participated, deliberated, and acted on issues of great importance to children's wellbeing worldwide. At the 2nd CWWF at the 4th World Water Forum in Mexico, 107 children from 29 countries shared 55 local actions to help in the solution- finding of water- related issues, and participated in workshops and educational activities.
The involvement of children in dealing with global issues exemplifies the need for policy-makers to put children at the forefront of their water and sanitation priorities. Moreover, involving children in large multi-stakeholder gatherings is an opportunity for children's representatives to engage in meaningful dialogue within a unified objective of bringing about significant change on water issues. Children are a crucial stakeholder in water deliberations and decisions to "Bridge Divides for Water". For more information, please see the Guidelines. Fill in the Registration Form for Children, Registration Form for Activities, Registration Form for Chaperon and List of Delegations.
The coordinators of the European Regional Process invite any interested party to send their comments on the chapters of the the European Regional Document (ERD), one of the main output of the Process.

What are the roles and responsibilities of the hundreds of people involved in the thematic development for the 5th Forum? How do they interact? Which tasks do they carry out, what outputs are they expected to produce? Click here to find all the answers!
The call for contributions to the 100 Forum Sessions are now open!
First, though, it is important to understand that the process for this Forum's thematic development is slightly different than for past fora. The Forum has the new ambition of responding concretely to a certain number (around 100) of key questions, around which interactive sessions will be designed. The scope of those sessions, each of which will necessarily involve many different stakeholders in order to discuss the issues from several different perspectives, has already been developed over the past few months. Therefore, complete session proposals, as received in the past, will not be solicited, but rather expressions of interest to contribute to solutions for particular questions are welcomed. Likewise, the Forum does not accept papers or abstracts as it does not have the vocation to be a technical conference.
The thematic work will therefore be structured according to the thematic framework that you will find here. It will then be the responsibility of each topic coordinator and session convener to integrate these inputs into the session design.
On the page Get involved in developing sessions all the necessary information on the procedure to submit your contribution is available, as well as the Contribution Form, to be filled in and sent back to the Coordinator in charge of your topic of interest.
This Forum is yours; your participation can make it a success. Contribute!

Topic 1.3 development meeting
Agenda and registration for August 20, 2008 meeting in Stockholm
1 August 2008
The World Water Council and the 5th World Water Forum have launched the Forum's Virtual Meeting Space (VMS), available at portal.worldwaterforum5.org. The VMS is a dedicated web-based tool created to facilitate the collaboration between those interested in sharing their solutions towards an improved management of the world's water resources. It will thus serve as a networking tool for the water community towards the 5th World Water Forum.
We strongly believe that the VMS will help in the preparatory work towards the 5th World Water Forum, allowing its overarching theme to be implemented in tangible terms, effectively "bridging divides" across geographical, sectorial and other boundaries. It will also facilitate the participation in the debate of a more diversified and wider range of interests than those that can take part in preparatory meetings and the Forum week. Click on the image for a screenshot of the VMS.

Let the Show Begin
It's that time of the year again. When the Great Singapore Sale opens with a bang and shopping madness descends to wreak havoc among the purses of Singaporeans and foreigners alike. And what better way to spend away the warmest days of the year than in a cool shopping mall? Well, you could travel to Suntec Convention Hall 6, where the longest running showcase of computer and electronics equipment, the PC Show, began today at 11am and it continues right through the weekend.
Into its 16th year, the PC Show promises more of the same formula that has attracted flocks of people to part with their money - gadgets and gears galore. Packed with big brand names in the PC industry (Dell and HP among others) as well as consumer electronics giants (such as Sony, Samsung and many more players), this is one exhibition of technology that you won't want to miss (at least for the bargains they offer).

Greater Manchester police have arrested a 15-year-old boy in relation to the alleged sending of a racist tweet to Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand.
The tweet was sent during United's 3-2 derby victory over Manchester City on Sunday. A statement on the GMP website said: "Police investigating a racist tweet sent during Sunday's Manchester derby have made an arrest. An investigation was launched following a message directed at a Manchester United player.
"A 15-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence on the evening of Monday 10 December 2012. He has been bailed pending further inquiries."
In unrelated incidents Ferdinand was hit by a coin and approached by the 21-year-old Manchester City supporter Matthew Scott, who had encroached on the pitch as the defender celebrated Robin van Persie's late winner.
Police made nine arrests as tempers among rival fans boiled over and officers have appealed for anyone with information about hooligans throwing coins to get in touch.
Patrice Evra believes City lost the derby because of Roberto Mancini choosing to leave out Carlos Tevez for Mario Balotelli in his starting XI. "I was really happy when he [Tevez] didn't start the game," United's captain told the Manchester Evening News. "I told him before the game. It was a good sign for us."
Van Persie has praised the influence of Javier Hernández and Danny Welbeck, the youngest members of United's four-strong strikeforce, on him since joining the club.
The Dutchman's winner against City was his 14th goal for United since his £24m arrival in the summer. The 29-year-old and Wayne Rooney are Sir Alex Ferguson's first-choice forwards but Van Persie, asked if Hernández and Welbeck can learn from him, told MUTV: "It goes both ways – I can learn from them as well. For example, I love Chicharito's [Hernández's] enthusiasm. I love how he plays and trains and does his work off the pitch after training. A couple of weeks ago he wasn't playing as much but he was in the gym every day doing extra work and that sets a big example for everyone.
"Danny, too. He's not playing in his favourite position at the moment but we need him and he's working hard. So when you have four strikers being so professional, it sets the tone for the others. Everyone realises we are all in it together and we all need to do our bit."
Evra praised Rooney's recent resurgence. "At the beginning of the season a lot of people were criticising Wayne, which was normal because Robin joined us and is doing great, but you can't forget Wayne and he just proved it," he said. "He scored two goals in the last game against Reading and he's scored another two goals again against City. In the big games you need your big players and Wayne is one of them."
Rooney has seven goals in all competitions this season, Hernández nine and Welbeck one.

I read that in a Rick Bayless book recently. Can't believe it took me so long to learn that. I probably steam veggies a couple times a week now.

Happy Customers - Archie's Surfs Up Party!
I was very excited to see these photos in my inbox today as this was the printables theme I created for my son Jack's 4th birthday. Its great to see how people are inspired by my designs and how they add their own touch and creativity for their own children's parties.
I love how Dawn has used chunky white letters and numbers in the decorations...first to greet you at the door, then as a name banner, on the cake and the treat boxes.
Thank you so much for sharing these pics with us Dawn!
If you would like to purchase the 'Kombi Surf' Printables email me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Weekly Photo Challenge: Harmony
I believe we can dance,
Under the moon lit sky and warm summer nights.
We shall move and swirl,
While getting soaked in our endless love.
We can dance and forget.
Hold on to each other like moon holds tides of the ocean.
Strongly, fiercely and firm.
We can crash into each other,
Like waves of the ocean crash into the rocks,
Leaving marks of passion and love.
We can gaze and gaze,
Endlessly at each other's face,
Like a long lost traveler has finally found its long lost destination,
Its final resting place.
We can dance and move,
To the rhythm of warm breeze,
That grazes our skins with its sweet ting.
We can step to the Galaxies,
And move through Constellations,
Every step forward leading us to Infinity.

Here is a quick recap on an intense summer: early June our second son Timoté was born at the minute the sun rose over Istanbul, our new home. It's apparently called an heliacal birth.
A couple of weeks of family bonding and I was off on a long awaited 4 weeks trip across the US, east to West - "The road to Kerouac; Portaits of a Nomadic America" (published by La Martinière ). The book (208 pages) landed on my editor's lap a few days ago, and should be available in stores soon in France. Here are some snap shots of the book - I will do a proper Blog entry when it is officially available:
An article on this very topic will come out in Géo (French edition) in December 2011.
After this cross-country non-stop adventure, I spent a few days in Washington (meeting with National Geographic magazine), and then 5 days in New York. That didn't help slow down anything, but it was great to see old friends and to just re-immersed myself in this brilliant city. I lived there almost 4 years in the late 90's. 10 years I hadn't been there. The smells, feels and looks haven't changed much expect for this Williamsburg hipster frame-less glasses phenomenon...
I flew back to Europe to re-unite to family and hit the ground driving from Rouen, France, in Normandy, to Berlin - I was close to 9000 Km already from mid-June, my bum was sore. Berlin was really a great feel. About 10 different languages heard in the street every 5 minutes, and just a general good humored feel. To me, the most cosmopolitan city of Europe. Maybe one day I live there.
From Berlin, I drove to Munich in time to catch a plane to Tajikistan - via Istanbul ironically - back to the Tajik Pamir for a story on "seed hunting". Have a look at this guy. We drove much again, I became experimental with my shooting from the window, mainly to kill time.
Back in Munich - I drove to South of France to attend Perpignan's Visa pour l'Image. 3 days was just the perfect amount of mingling, sharing work and yes, partying.
Back in Istanbul, just in time to enjoy the end of summer. The city seduces me and there are interesting stories around. After a trip to Hatay, on the Syrian border, I came back to Istanbul to shoot a story on the geopolitical importance of.... TV dramas in Turkey and the middle east. Great stuff that I will keep on working on for a while I hope.
I am now in Hong Kong for 3 weeks - to attend to my solo exhibition on Mongolia. Here is the link to the gallery, and below the invitation... Opening is tomorrow Tuesday 25th October 2011 at 6pm:
Picture This gallery
Suite 1308, 13th Floor
9 Queen's Road, Central
Hong Kong
If you are in the area, come and catch me!

In the past year, both HLCM and HLCP have reiterated their commitment to pursue a common strategy to more effectively share knowledge across the system. While extensive capacity to leverage knowledge resources already exists within many United Nations system organizations, the ability of the system as a whole to share knowledge is a critical condition to significantly advance overall policy and programmatic coherence. With these considerations in mind, CEB, through its High-level Committees, has established an inter-agency task force to shape a system-wide knowledge-sharing strategy. Underlying the elaboration of this strategy is the recognition of United Nations agencies as centres of excellence in their respective areas of specialization, and the importance of finding ways for their individual strengths to coalesce to promote multisectoral approaches that can advance both security and development.
Successful knowledge-sharing can occur only in an open environment, where all participants feel free to contribute and share what they know, and where their input is not only welcome, but also expected. Barriers to efficient knowledge-sharing frequently stem from prevailing institutional cultures, and lack of adequate support mechanisms. The task force on knowledge-sharing is working to address these cultural and infrastructure obstacles by exploring ways of advancing a broader culture of knowledge-sharing across institutional boundaries, and of strengthening institutional policies that guide participation in knowledge networks.

Streamlined interface gives players of the Naruto team combat MMO more battle options
Publisher IceGames Co. Ltd has today detailed the new Formation Interface giving players more battle options than ever before in Naruto team-combat MMO, Naruto Saga.
Available now on the Games.la portal, Naruto Saga brings a fresh set of gameplay experiences into the world of the fabled Naruto anime series. Combining tactical one-on-one battle systems with quick time events (QTEs), dynamic quest systems based on Naruto plots, powerful Beast Summoning, exciting Arena PK and mysterious Ninja Transformation features, Naruto Saga gives players immense freedom while challenging them to use wisdom and courage to overcome obstacles as they strive to become the top ninja in the land.
Players are given 10 different types of ninjas to partner them in battle, each with their own unique skills benefits. Any 3 characters can be taken into battle as partners, where players can assign their team skills and set them up in formations for victory.
Available now, the new Formation Interface provides ninjas with a variety of tactical options before, during, and after battle – all wrapped up in a clean, intuitive layout.
Ninja types are grouped into categories to streamline selection, and active members are highlighted for quick reference in the heat of battle. Using the Partners Position Array, players can switch their characters position with ease at any moment, and it's even possible to enhance partner skills with a few simple clicks; lending a dynamic tactical edge to Naruto Saga's intense team combat.
Ninjas can also recruit new partners within the new Formation Interface, which they should do regularly to keep their team fresh and enemies on their toes.
Partners are recruited by spending Recruit Points, although Ingots and Coupons can also be used if players find themselves short. The recruitment process is a game of chance: players are presented with a selection of face-down cards, which they must choose one to turn over. If a desirable character is revealed and the player has enough Card Shards to recruit them, they instantly join the team.
Potential partners are divided into 4 types: S-rank, A-rank, B-rank and C-rank. The higher the level, the higher the power they bring to combat.
With careful team selection and formation set ups, players can guarantee that every characters ability is used to its most devastating potential.
Naruto Saga is free-to-play and available now! Interested players can register at the official website here: http://track.games.la/pr_ns.htm

KALAMAZOO—Individuals in southwest and southeast Michigan will soon have an easier way to gain the skills they need to become leaders within the learning and development profession.
Beginning with the 2013 fall semester, Western Michigan University will offer the Master of Arts in Leadership for Organizational Learning and Performance at WMU-MetroDetroit in Royal Oak, Mich., and WMU-Southwest in Benton Harbor, Mich. The new degree offering was announced in 2012, and the fall 2013 enrollees will be the inaugural class.
Students will be able to complete the 33-credit-hour program entirely at WMU's MetroDetroit and Southwest regional locations, says Dr. Larry Buzas, the program's coordinator. An accredited bachelor's degree in most areas is a good base for beginning the program. Classes will meet once or twice a month in the evenings, with supplemental instruction occurring online to make them convenient for working adults.
About the program
"The program focuses on innovative technologies for learning," Buzas says. "That enables our students, many whom are human resources and organizational development leaders, to create training and development opportunities for their organizations that promote more efficient and effective learning."
Focusing on change management, talent development and organizational effectiveness, the program can enhance the careers of those in business, government, education, health care and nonprofit settings. It is already offered by WMU's Department of Educational Leadership, Research and Technology on the University's main campus in Kalamazoo and its regional location in Grand Rapids, Mich.
Program graduates will be adept at managing training and development projects and processes as well as measuring the impact of their efforts, and will support diversity and inclusion in the workforce.
"Employers seek graduates who are skilled for a variety of roles, including learning facilitator, staff developer, performance consultant, organizational change agent and many others," Buzas says. "Our curriculum goes beyond the traditional human resource role because demand for learning and development professionals is driven in part by the rapid pace of change in all types of industries and organizations."
For more information, visit wmich.edu/offcampus/orglearning. Direct questions to Larry Buzas at email@example.com or (269) 387-3881.

Of course the nature of chat will change if suddenly 40 people are in there every night for the entire game. Will that be good or bad? Hard to say since that's never really happened before (at least in the year I've been here).
But chat seems to work better with more people, so it's an experiment worth trying out, IMO.

Full resin statue, printed and hand perfected by skilled artisans, who delete the imperfections. When the statue is perfectly smoothed it is carried to the coloring section, where it is hand painted with indelible varnishes, according to the classical iconography. The resini s a plastic material, which is solid thanks to hardener substances. It is resistant to the atmospheric agents. The difference with the fiberglass is that it does not contain the fiber.
Key to the reading of the Bible for Christians, the crucifix or cross is one of the most important symbols of Christianity, since it is the depiction of Jesus Christ crucified.
A crucifix Catholic or Anglican consists of a Latin cross which is applied to a human body male naked and lifeless, his head, wearing a crown of thorns, reclined on his shoulder, his hands nailed to the arms of the cross, feet nailed to the trunk, the pierced side and the inscription above the head of Jesus INRI (Nazarene King of the Jews). The fingers of his right hand usually indicate the number 2 because the man is the second person of the SS. Trinity.
It can be made of wood, metal or precious materials, in different sizes and in different artistic techniques such as painting, sculpture or bas-relief.
The crucifix is a large part of the history of art with achievements of great artists such as Giotto, Cimabue, Donatello and Michelangelo.
In some Christian countries is rooted custom of exposing the crucifix in public places, for example in Italy is compulsory exposure in classrooms, although in recent years has given rise to numerous controversies, as in Abano Terme (PD), to Ofena (AG) or in Ivrea (TO) with legal battles until reaching a judgment of the European Court which states that the crucifix is not just a religious symbol, but an identity that has evolved in the history of the Italian community who founded on the principles and values of democratic and humanitarian Western civilizations.

Drooling. Do you think you can describe how you get your hair so smooth? I'm just wondering if it's a matter of taught-ness, when winding your hair on the flexirods? Or do you pre-stretch your hair before setting it on the rods?
After trying to set on one piece of my hair in the front last night, my hair still looked too 'fro-ey and poof-ey today for the waves to really read, like as yours do.
Thanks for the great tutorial(s)!

@ Nefertiti, I was telling Kennie, the key is that fine line between damp and straight wet. Then brushing to smooth the hair and trying to keep it slightly taut so it doesn't curl up on itself also plays a major roll..no pun intended lol
I don't always have to brush out my hair but I do it for good measure (like in the 30s wave vid) I I hope that helps! :)

Oh gosh I just relaxed yesterday after a six month transition because I thought that I could not go retro with natural hair. Deep sigh, at least I know now .....,, six months.

I LOVE this look!!! And I totally agree that sometimes setting your hair on damp/stretched hair gives better results (especially with my kinky 4b hair!).

@ M-J Atelier, I'm sure you can still do the styles..even if your hair is worn straight, you can still have fun with it as it is now. You can always make another attempt at going natural too! :)

@WestNDNbeauty, If you try it out, be sure to let post a photo! I'd love to see it! :)

THis is ironic, because for the wedding I'm in next weekend, we have to do a side sweep and wear a flower. THis is perfect! I was going to do the same thing, but after a week long braid out, i like this look though and it looks like less fuss.
Question: Did you sit under a heated dryer? What products did you use (just curious) to smooth the hair out? My hair is considerably thicker than yours, so I know I'll have to use more flexirods, may effect the drying process, but i'm going to give it a test drive on Thursday! I'll do a video, if not before, then on the wedding day.
- May 21, 2011 at 7:01 AM
- The Retro Natural said...
@ Kali, my apologies on not being able to answer back sooner. I did sit under my dryer, my next post is going to be about it! I then slept in them to ensure my hair was actually dry because we all know exactly how much it sucks to wake up and take down a curler to find wet hair! For smoothing, I used Kinky Curly Knot today and coconut oil. the best smothing product is a bristle brush. Just don't brush to hard to where you're snapping at your hair, I find that it's best to brush more slowly. The most rods you use, the more your hair will curl, the less you use, the more wavy your hair will be. I would love to see a video though, hope it came out nice!
