Press Release from ISA Surf
DAKINE ISA World Junior Surfing Championship Presented by Billabong, from June 8-16, at Playa Jiquiliste, Nicaragua
La Jolla, California, May 24, 2013- The International Surfing Association (ISA) is excited to announce the ISA will be returning to Nicaragua for the second year in a row for the 2013 DAKINE ISA World Junior Surfing Championship (WJSC) Presented by Billabong from June 8-16.
Nicaragua last hosted the ISA World Masters Surfing Championship in Playa Colorado in 2012.
The most important Junior event in the world has the full support of Nicaragua's President, Daniel Ortega, and the country's Minister of Tourism, Mayra Salinas Uriarte.
34 Nations and over 300 of the World's best Junior surfers (under 18 and under 16 boys and girls) will gather at the world-class beach break in Playa Jiquiliste, Nicaragua, to compete for the ISA World Junior Team Champion Trophy and individual Gold Medals.
"Nicaragua hosted one of the best and most exciting ISA World Championships ever last year and I can't be happier to return to this beautiful country and its excellent waves," remarked ISA President Fernando Aguerre. "Thanks to the support of Nicaragua's President Ortega, the Institute of Tourism, DAKINE, Billabong, and the country's welcoming and warm-hearted people, this will be an incredible event. The world's best junior surfers are guaranteed to put on a great show."
The ISA WJSC brings together the top Junior surfers in the world. The defending champions from the 2012 ISA World Juniors are Brazil's Matheus Navarro, (Gold Medalist, Boys under-18), Hawaii's Dax McGill, (Gold Medalist, Girls under-18), Hawaii's Kalani David, (Gold Medalist, Boys under-16), and Team Hawaii, the overall ISA World Junior Team Champion.
The 2013 ISA WJSC will include the Boys under-18, Girls under-18, Boys under-16, and for the first time ever, Girls under-16, which the ISA has added as the number of participants in this age group continues to explode globally. Each division will produce individual Gold, Silver, Bronze and Copper Medalists that will play a crucial role in the overall team standings.

Wildlife Management and Hunting with Dogs
The use of dogs is a unique and vital method of wildlife management. Dogs, unlike the other control methods, will:
- selectively remove the old, weak, ailing, injured and parasitic-burdened animals
- utilise a search and find capability through their extraordinary scenting faculty
- either catch or lose the quarry animal, there is no wounding
- keep populations alert, thereby retaining fitness and health of the quarry populations
- disperse populations, thereby helping to avoid a build up of disease reservoirs
- be self-limiting in that, for practical reasons, hunts spend less time in areas of low populations
- give indication of low populations
- manage wildlife through natural means
Our Policy
For many years the issue of hunting with dogs has been seen as controversial. Numerous arguments against hunting have been put forward over decades, ranging from morality to class war. However, the most common accusation is that hunting is cruel. The chasing of a wild animal with dogs is automatically regarded as an act which causes suffering and the coincidental fact that it is also regarded by followers of the hunt as a sport only attracts further condemnation.
The Middle Way Group challenges both of these perceptions and seeks to produce scientifically sound information with the aim of genuinely improving animal welfare.
Most individuals and groups supporting the hunting ban agree that wild animals have to be controlled, one way or another. So the debate, both inside and outside Parliament, was about the method, rather than saving the lives of animals. The Government saw fit to limit the use of dogs by way of the Hunting Act 2004, despite the fact that there are no scientific grounds for prohibiting this activity (see The use, misuse and abuse of science in support of the Hunting Act 2004, published by the All Party Parliamentary Middle Way Group and the Veterinary Association for Wildlife Management 2007).
The use of dogs has an all or nothing outcome and to restrict their use inevitably means more shooting and more snaring. As such, wounding and the capture of non-target species also rises. Wounding levels for foxes have been debated and disputed in recent years, but the only validated research on this subject was published by the Universities Federation for Animal Welfare (see Wounding Rates in Shooting Foxes, N.Fox and others, Animal Welfare 2005) This study showed much higher levels of wounding than previously thought. Further, a wounded animal, whilst obviously suffering, is more likely to become the problem animal as far as human interests are concerned in its attempts to obtain food.
Indeed it is worth highlighting the numerous ways in which the use of dogs in wildlife management can be highly beneficial to the various species that are/were hunted, in terms of the health of the individual animal, the health of the population and the wellbeing of local ecosystems, each of which is capable of leading to human health problems.
The Natural Chase
Dogs evolved from wolves and their hunting abilities and strategies are very much the same. It is also the case that the quarry species have developed various tactics to avoid being caught by hunting packs of wolves or dogs and, rather than being traumatised as is so often thought, is likely to be crucial to their survival, and consequently their health, in the wild.
The following quote from John Webster, Emeritus Professor of Animal Husbandry at Bristol University is relevant. In his book Animal Welfare - a Cool Eye towards Eden, Professor Webster says: "Fear is one of the most useful properties of the conscious mind because it is conducive to survival. Sentient animals are born curious because they need education to survive and acquire this education usually while under the protection of a parent or parents. They learn to discriminate between real and apparent dangers and, as they mature, become progressively cautious. Having lost the protection of a parent, they rely on their own sense of fear to direct their actions towards survival. When the gazelle learns that the charge of the leopard is truly frightening but once again, manages to escape, it may come to recognize fear as a constructive motivating force that produces its own reward, not as a source of suffering."
While wild mammals have thereby evolved to cope with this natural form of pressure, the scenting power of the dog is much more than a simple tracking ability. This search and catch capability enables the weak, old, ailing, injured or animals with a high parasitic burden to be caught precisely the animals that need to be removed, not only for the sake of relieving the suffering of the individual, but also to keep the population healthy.
The use of dogs is likely to retain the fitness of a hunted species, not only by removal of those weaker animals, but also by keeping the population alert and thereby better able to cope with other pressures. Such natural selection is not achievable with any of the other methods of control or management.
In addition, the use of dogs can protect the wild populations which are hunted, as success is dependent upon certain levels existing. In other words, hunting is self-limiting in that, for practical reasons, hunts spend less time in areas of low populations. This is not the case with other control methods, such as shooting and trapping, which could be readily used until the last animal is killed.
The presence of natural predators causes certain quarry species to disperse, thereby helping to avoid disease reservoirs, their possible impact on human interests or the local environment. Again, this is not achieved by the use of any of the other legal control methods.

NASA, huh? Since the halcyon days of Kennedy and the shuttle program it's sputtered slightly, thanks in no small part to unnecessary wars, poor economics and other earthly foibles. Also: explaining its purpose, especially as it relates to the layperson.
But that's going to change! Really! Or, at least it was until the budget was, ahem, affected earlier this year by a mighty stroke from President Obama's oft-not used /"no, actually we can't" executive branch pen.
But now it's going to change again! So said NASA's Number Two anyway, in remarks to an assembly at a TEDxMidTownNY event at Manhattan's Explorers Club this week. Evolution was the theme, as in NASA needs to evolve for the future, not get stuck in the past, said deputy chief Lori Garver.
What that means, specifically, is ditching vestigial Apollo program habits and beliefs, and embracing commercial space flight in low-earth orbit. Also on the docket, "ambitious exploration missions" to nearby asteroids and that much ballyhooed celestial red-faced neighbour or ours, Mars. One would think, although it's no certain, that embracing the former would free up funding for the latter.
The increased role of privatized space travel in NASA's arsenal is nothing new, of course. Back in January we brought you word that privatization was seen as a necessary boon for the space agency as looming cuts appeared on the horizon.
Personally, I absolutely believe NASA's value (and ESA, and JAXA, etc.) cannot be overstated. Historically speaking humans have been relatively united, inspired energized and when it comes to one thing, exploration, and I can think of no frontier, save the ocean depths, that would capture our curiosity more than crazy missions of exploration into the deep, dark depths of space.
And, didn't you hear? There might be methanogen life forms on Titan and Earth-like planets are a mere year away from discovery.
In the immortal words of Bill Watterson, let's go exploring. [MSNBC]

Harry Lloyd Hopkins (August 17, 1890 – January 29, 1946) was one of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's closest advisers. He was one of the architects of the New Deal, especially the relief programs of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), which he directed and built into the largest employer in the country. In World War II he was Roosevelt's chief diplomatic advisor and troubleshooter and was a key policy maker in the $50 billion Lend-Lease program that sent aid to the allies.
== Sourced ==
Communities now find themselves in possession of improvements [resulting from the WPA] which even in 1929 they would have thought themselves presumptuous to dream of... [but] everywhere there had been an overhauling of the word presumptuous. We are beginning to wonder if it is not presumptuous to take for granted that some people should have much, and some should have nothing; that some people are less important than others and should die earlier; that the children of the comfortable should be taller and fatter, as a matter of right, than the other children of the poor.
Spending to Save: The Complete Story of Relief (1936), p. 184They are damn good projects - excellent projects. That goes for all the projects up there. You know some people make fun of people who speak a foreign language, and dumb people criticize something they do not understand, and that is what is going on up there - God damn it!
Stated at a press conference (April 4, 1935); reported in Robert E. Sherwood, Roosevelt and Hopkins (1948), p. 60. Sherwood says, "The reports of this conference quoted Hopkins as saying that 'the people are too damned dumb', and this phrase was given plenty of circulation in the press" (p. 61). He adds in a footnote that "it will be seen from the transcript of his remarks that this particular statement was directed not at the people but at the critical orators" (p. 938). Also reported in Paul F. Boller, Jr., and John George, They Never Said It: A Book of Fake Quotes, Misquotes, & Misleading Attributions (1989), p. 48-49; Boller and George also note that the quote was quickly misreported as "The people are too damn dumb to understand".

Nagin takes second stab at Justice Dept. documents
Attorney wants judge to overrule decision to reject access
Calling them "key documents that would allow for a fair trial," an attorney for former New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin asked a judge to overturn a magistrate court decision not to give the defense team access to an internal investigation into the U.S. Attorney's Office.
Robert Jenkins asked for an expedited decision from Judge Ginger Berrigan, with the trial set to begin in less than three weeks.
Jenkins earlier had filed a motion seeking to compel the government to hand over the findings of an internal review of activity in the local U.S. Attorney's Office. Three key members of that office, including U.S. Attorney Jim Letten, resigned last year in the wake of a scandal centered on public posts made by federal prosecutors.
The online comments included some remarks targeting Nagin.
In his latest filing, Jenkins writes: "the discovery requests relate to the government's indiscretion -- and even worse, systemic misconduct. For these reasons, the Defendant respectfully requests that the Court correct the magistrate judge's error and authorize production of the documents requested by the Defendant to permit both an evidentiary hearing as well as an orderly and fair trial to occur."
Nagin's trial is set to begin Oct. 28.

The week in review
Warmest winter: The National Weather Service says 2011-12 is the fourth warmest on record, and the average temperature of 44.5 degrees is a whopping five degrees higher than the average winter norm.
Biggest exception to the warm winter stats: A storm drops as much as 8 inches of snow in some parts of Central Virginia March 5.
Speaking of warm winters: The Virginia Supreme Court rejects Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli's demand that UVA turn over climate research records of Michael Mann. According to a release, that court battle cost the university $570,698 in legal fees, which came from private sources.
Worst news for team-sports-oriented home schoolers: Delegate Rob Bell's "Tebow bill" that would have allowed children to play on teams even if they're not enrolled in a public school died in the Senate March 1, the News Advance reports.
Toughest on juveniles: The General Assembly passes a bill making the suspension and expulsion records of students open to public scrutiny, according to NBC29. And juveniles convicted of dealing drugs for the third time can be tried as adults.
Best trend: Overall crime rates in Charlottesville and Albemarle decline in 2011. In the city, thefts from cars remain on the rise, but murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assaults drop from 159 incidents in 2010 to 140 in 2011, the Progress reports.
Most alarming trend: The number of traffic fatalities on rural roads in Albemarle jumped to 21 in 2011, according to the Hook, with speed, alcohol, and disuse of seatbelts the three major causes of death.
Highest high schoolers: A survey of Charlottesville seniors shows that the number who have used marijuana is higher than the national average, according to WINA.
Biggest change for the Jefferson Area Tea Party: Carol Thorpe will step down as chair person, but will continue as tea party spokesperson. Rob Schilling has the story.
Latest in the James Halfaday saga: The former City Council candidate pleads guilty to one Class 5 felony count for election fraud March 6 in Charlottesville Circuit Court for claiming to live at a city address when he lived in the county. He faces up to 10 years in jail and a $2,500 fine when he's sentenced July 5, and as a felon will not be able to run for local office (or even vote) unless pardoned by the governor. The Virginia State Board of Elections also could fine Halfaday $500 for each of the 21 false claims he made of receiving $499 in donations.
Latest Ragged Mountain dam deterrent: A group of citizens petition City Council to hold a referendum on the controversial water project.
Most disturbing anniversary: March 2 marks 16 years since Alicia Showalter Reynolds was abducted off U.S. 29 in Culpeper. Her remains were found two months later, and her killer still is unknown. The Virginia State Police say the case is still an open and active investigation.
Most restitution: Cigarette smuggler Vijay Nanubhai Patel, 50, of Fredericksburg agrees to pay $5 million and forfeit $625,000 as part of his guilty plea March 2 in U.S. District Court in Charlottesville.
Most lackluster Super Tuesday: Due to a failure by some of the big candidates to muster the the required 10,000 signatures, Virginia's March 6 Republican primary ballot offers only has Mitt Romney and Ron Paul, and while we could hazard a guess on the outcome, the official results won't be available until after this issue has gone to press.
Most inane rejection: Labels for new brews from a boutique division of Blue Mountain Brewery, Chocolate Orange Bourbon Porter and Chocolate Cherry Bourbon Porter, get nixed by an organization called the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau because people may not realize they're not getting a traditional porter–- despite such clues as the words "Chocolate Orange Bourbon." Aaron Richardson has the story in the Progress.

The fulfilment of basic human needs, our environment, socio-economic development and poverty reduction are all heavily dependent on water.
Good management of water is especially challenging due to some of its unique characteristics: it is unevenly distributed in time and space, the hydrological cycle is highly complex. Rapid urbanization, pollution and climate change threaten the resource while demands for water are increasing in order to satisfy the needs of a growing world population, now at over seven billion people, for food production, energy, industrial and domestic uses. Water is a shared resource and its management needs to take into account a wide variety of conflicting interests.
In designating 2013 as the UN International Year of Water Cooperation the aim was to raise awareness both on the potential for increased cooperation and on the challenges facing water management in the light of the increased demand for water access and services.
Among many of the goals achieved, the Year has provided a means to strengthen the dialogue and cooperation with key stakeholders, at all levels. The closing ceremony at the beginning of December, provided a synthesis of the major achievements of the International Year, explored the modalities to further foster water cooperation and set the agenda for its follow-up.
As we look ahead, the Zaragoza Conference, to be held on 13-16 January in Spain, is organized by UN-Water Programme on Advocacy and Communication (UNW-DPAC), and will reach beyond the "water for energy" and/or "energy for water" concept focusing on a more practical examination of how tools and partnerships help developing appropriate joint responses and what are the measures for managing trade-offs, identifying synergies, and maximizing co-benefits.
The main celebrations of World Water Day 2014 will be organized by UNU and UNIDO on behalf of UN-Water on 20-21 March 2014 and will take place at the UNU Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. On this occasion, the World Water Development Report 2014 on Water and Energy will be launched, and the UN-Water "Water for Life" Best Practices Award will be given. The winner of the Stockholm Water Prize will also be announced.
Water and sanitation are essential for human well-being, economic development and a healthy environment. Every year, water-related natural disasters such as storms, floods and droughts have devastating impacts on the lives of millions of people, on our economies and on the environment. Making sure that all have access to sufficient quantity and quality of water while preventing and mitigating risks from weather-related hazards is clearly one of the most critical challenges of our future.

Introduction: This month marks 33 years since communist North Vietnamese bagan the total domination and denial of rights of the free and democratic people of South Vietnam. Our friend and comrade in arms Hoi Ba Tran sent this reminder of those dark days for publication by Peace and Freedom.
To My Younger Generation: Grasp the Past to Pave the Future
By Hoi Ba Tran
Part 1 – Steal The Spotlight
During the nineteen-twenties, thirties and forties, anti-French colonial rule sentiment ran fervently high in Viet Nam (See Note 1 below). Several revolutionary parties sprang up trying to oust French colonists. Most of them failed as a result of tight French security networks and they were better armed.
Many Viet Nam patriots were caught and received the death sentence while others were transported to Con Dao, a penal island in South China Sea (2), to serve a life sentence in hard labor. On February 10, 1930, an armed revolt was launched against the French around Hanoi by the Viet Quoc Party (3) but they were outgunned by the French and failed. Mr. Nguyen Thai Hoc, Chairman of the Viet Quoc Party and 12 other members of the Viet Quoc were beheaded in Yen Bai, North Viet Nam.
Subsequent to this tragic defeat, most anti-French colonial rule parties retreated to South China waiting for the ripe time to fight again for independence. With some support from the Chinese Kuomintang party, all Vietnamese Nationalist parties united under the name Viet Nam Cach Menh Dong Minh Hoi (4). Dang Cong San Viet Nam (5) headed by Ho Chi Minh was also a member.

Fifteen years later, an unexpected event occurred that ousted the French. On March 9, 1945, three months prior to my tenth birthday, Japanese forces in Viet Nam launched a flash coup d'etat and toppled the French government. The following day, Japanese envoy granted Viet Nam her independence within Japan's Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. Although it was not exactly what the Vietnamese had hoped for, at least the brutal French colonial regime was ousted.
Unfortunately, the superficial independence the Japanese granted Viet Nam lasted only five months. On August 6, 1945, the U.S. dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima and the second one on Nagasaki on August 9,1945. Japan could not withstand the nuclear devastation and capitulated unconditionally on August 14, 1945. This brought World War II to an end.
The capitulation of Japan and the end of World War II was the prelude to an unfortunate chain of events that destroyed Viet Nam. A few days after Japan's surrender, the first round of bad luck struck Viet Nam when Japanese military officials in Hanoi turned over the government to the Vietnamese local authority. Exploiting this anarchy period, Ho Chi Minh, used his militia forces and armed propaganda units already embedded in Hanoi to topple local governments and seized power.
On August 28, 1945, Ho formally declared the country to be the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV) (6) an independent nation as he proclaimed himself President while concurrently being Minister of Foreign Affairs. Ho appointed Pham Van Dong Minister of Finance and Vo Nguyen Giap as Minister of Interior. To deceive the hard line nationalist patriots, Ho invited the Emperor Bao Dai to be high counselor of his new government.
Then on September 2, 1945, at Ba Dinh square, Ho recited the Vietnamese Declaration of Independence which he plagiarized from the American Declaration of Independence in front of hundreds of thousands Vietnamese who were overjoyed with the unexpected and sudden independence. I, this writer, was 10 years old and was among the crowd as a member of the Vanguard Youth Group. I held a small red flag with a yellow star in the middle not knowing at the time it was a communist flag. At the instruction of our leader, we waved the flag and sang the song "Who loves Uncle Ho Chi Minh more than us young children" as taught.
By and large, most people in North Viet Nam were probably overly excited with the independence left by the Japanese not realizing that Ho was a wily, evil person and a devoted member of the International Communist Party until too late.
Following Ho's assumption of power, he gradually showed his fiendish mentality and inhumane behavior to further his egocentric power. To him, the end justifies the means. When the tide of anti-French colonial rule was at its peak, Ho roguishly disguised himself as a nationalist patriot and exhorted the struggling to dislodge the French. But after having successfully hijacked the independence from the Vietnamese nationalists, Ho struck a deal with France on March 6, 1946 allowing French troops to return to Viet Nam north of the 16th parallel to supplant Chiang Kai-shek troops who were in Viet Nam to disarm the Japanese.

蔣介石 / 蔣中正
In return, France would recognize Ho's government. Chiang Kai-shek agreed to withdraw from North Vietnam and allowed the French to replace them in exchange for French concessions in Shanghai and other Chinese ports. Ho's plot was to get Chiang's Army out of Vietnam because Chiang might be sympathetic with Ho's potential opponents, the nationalist Vietnamese. Through this wily move, nationalist Vietnamese patriots considered Ho a traitor to the cause of revolution.
By June 1946, France proclaimed South Viet Nam to be under French control as Republic of Cochinchina. In the ensuing months, clashes between French and Ho's forces, the Viet Minh (7), erupted more frequently and in November 1946, a French warship bombarded Hai Phong, a coastal city in North Viet Nam, causing heavy casualty to the Viet Minh. All these events precipitated the war between French forces and the Viet Minh leading to the Dien Bien Phu battle in 1954.
Being a devout communist, Ho followed Maoist policies overzealously. In a three-year period from 1953 to 1956 which Ho executed the Land Reform Campaign, his infamous and barbaric people's tribunal killed approximately 50,000 so-called wicked landlords and about 50,000 to 100,000 were imprisoned (8) . Ho and his cadres aggressively imprisoned or even liquidated all Vietnamese patriots from non-communist parties in order to monopolize his despotic authority. Petty bourgeoisie elements were also Ho's targeted enemy. In early 1954, Ho and the Viet Minh received substantial manpower and logistical supports from the People's Republic of China (PRC) to fight the French. Ho and the Viet Minh engaged in a set piece battle with the French at Dien Bien Phu garrison. Both, French and Viet Minh wanted to attain military superiority to use as leverage for the upcoming peace negotiation in Geneva. Unfortunately, the Viet Minh forces outgunned the French and also numerically outnumbered the French defenders at the garrison by five to one to.
French capitulated and agreed to sign an agreement in Geneva to end the war. The Agreement was signed in Geneva on July 21, 1954 between France, the PRC, the USSR, North Vietnamese communist Viet Minh, the United Kingdom, the State of Vietnam ( Emperor Bao Dai), Laos and Cambodia. This Agreement divided Vietnam into two separate countries at the 17th parallel. North Vietnam remained as the DRV, a communist country under Ho Chi Minh.
South Vietnam became a non-communist, independent country called the Republic of Vietnam (RVN) under Prime Minister Ngo Dinh Diem.
Part 2 – Ho Chi Minh – Patriot or Villain?
After the partitioning of Viet Nam, if Ho Chi Minh had been a true patriot, he should have contented with the independence which the country inherited bloodlessly at the departure of the Japanese. He must have known he was only a self-proclaimed President and not elected by the Vietnamese people. And he should have concentrated his conscientious efforts and committed all resources into rebuilding the war ravaged country as well as the dying economy in North Viet Nam.
He should have fulfilled his slogan he used to appeal millions of Vietnamese patriots who were willing to fight and to die for: Independence – Liberty – Happiness. Why did he not leave people in the South, the RVN, to live peacefully and to pursue their way of life? Why did Ho and the Viet Minh continue to scatter deaths and catastrophe across North and South Viet Nam?
If Ho and the Viet Minh had not been too greedy wanting to gobble up the RVN by force, both countries, the DRV and the RVN would have been peaceful and prosperous. There would have been no war. But it was unfortunate for the Vietnamese people on both sides to have such an evil man like Ho Chi Minh. It was Ho who dragged the DRV of the North and the RVN of the South into a long bloody internecine.
The proxy war between the DRV, the aggressor and, the RVN, in self-defense, ended thirty-three years ago on April 30, 1975. This war had been labeled with various names by U.S. journalists. Some called it the Viet Nam War and others called it the American War, the Civil War and also The Proxy War. I agree with the term "proxy war" because the undisputable fact is: The three superpower nations were principal patrons in this conflict. Two communist giants, the PRC and the Soviet Union (USSR) supplied manpower and military assistance to the DRV to expand communism in Southeast Asia. The U.S. financed, trained and equipped the RVN to contain communist expansion. As the intensity of the war escalated to the apex, the U.S. committed its combat troops to help the RVN. Inherently poor and underdeveloped, the DRV must totally depend on their patrons, the PRC and the USSR for military and economic support to wage war against the RVN. The RVN was no exception either as without logistical aids from the U.S., the defense of the RVN would have been very difficult.
During the war, the DRV had lots of advantages over the RVN. Their despotic regime aligned well with the PRC and the USSR, in this proxy war. All communist regimes were despotic in nature and had no checks and balances in their government. In the DRV, there was no freedom of religion, no freedom of speech or freedom of assembly. There were no sensational-oriented press corps because all news media, from prints to broadcast, were closely censored and strictly controlled by the party. Political opposition in their country would be viewed as reactionary or counter-revolutionary and would bring fatal consequences.
If Jane Fonda and Ramsey Clarke were Vietnamese citizens visiting Washington to praise America while publicly denouncing Ho Chi Minh, they would have been quietly liquidated upon returning to Hanoi.
On the contrary, the RVN, being an ally of the U.S. and the free world, was toddling into a newly adopted Western democracy. After centuries under feudalism, the general public was not ready to deal with the sudden changes and, for the most part, not prepared to exercise their freedom responsibly. During the war, while the public was unprepared and government officials also were not adequately trained to act and serve their constituents in a democratic fashion. Consequently, during the transitional process, there were unavoidable flaws, difficulties and dissatisfactions from the citizenry. Aside from these internal socio-administrative problems, the politburo in Hanoi exploited the situation to intrigue political dissidents, misled students and Buddhists followers to trigger chaos and confusions. Their underground communist cadres shrouded under political and religious dissident cover was the impetus behind anti-war demonstrations in Hue and Saigon leading to the overthrow of the Diem's regime in November 1963. Following this disastrous event, the RVN encountered a period of political turmoil which to a certain degree, adversely affected the war efforts. It appears the expression "misfortunes never come alone" suited well to an ill-fated country like the RVN. While the situation in the RVN was not so favorable, her major ally, the U.S., was also facing a series of serious domestic political chaos.
Anti-war movements erupted wildly on many America's streets:
The Kent State University fatal shooting incidence heightened anti-war sentiment.
The Pentagon Papers led to the Watergate scandal and the resignation of President Richard M. Nixon.
President Nixon
Jane Fonda, Ramsey Clarke, and some religious ministers went to Hanoi to praise the communist and denounced U.S. war policy publicly on North Vietnam's radio.
Public support of the proxy war plummeted dramatically and the U.S. badly needed a strategy to exit Vietnam.
Part 3 – The Beginning of the End
The seriousness of domestic unrest in the U.S. compelled President Nixon to engage in political negotiation with Hanoi. On January 25, 1969, the Paris Peace Talk opened in Paris, France for the U.S. and Hanoi to negotiate an agreement to end the war. Knowing the anti-war sentiment in America had weakened, if not destroyed the U.S.'s will to continue the fight; Hanoi haughtily pushed for a military victory and kept stalling negotiation. After two years of deadlock because of Hanoi's intransigence, the U.S. sought to talk to Hanoi's patron, the PRC. Through back channel diplomacy, Dr. Henry Kissinger, Assistant to President Richard Nixon for National Security Affairs met with Chou En-lai, Prime Minister of the PRC in Peking, China to propose a fast solution to the Indochina conflict.
Dr Henry Kissinger
The Memorandum of Conversation between Dr. Henry Kissinger and Prime Minister Chou En-lai clearly shows that the U.S. wanted a quick political fix instead of destroying or defeating the North Vietnamese communist. The meeting was in Peking, China on June 20, 1972. Kissinger and Chou initially talked about world events before embarking on the issues in Indochina, specifically Vietnam. Below are verbatim excerpts from this historical document (9) which determined the fate of the RVN:
– Prime Minister Chou: Yes, that might be one of the historical factors. And an additional one that there are such big competitions in the world. Now let's go on to the Indochina question – I would like to hear from you.
– Dr. Kissinger: The Prime Minister said he had some observations he would like to make to me. May be we should reverse the places and let him talk first.
– Prime Minister Chou: These are questions on which there are disputes, and we would like to listen to you first to see your solutions of the problem.
– Dr. Kissinger: Is the Prime Minister's suggestion that after he's heard me I will be so convincing the disputes will have disappeared, and there will be no further need for him to make observations?
– Prime Minister Chou: I have no such expectations, but do hope the disputes will be lessened.
– Dr. Kissinger: I will make our candid assessment. I know it doesn't agree with yours, but it is useful for you at any rate to understand how we see the situation. And it will take the situation from the start of the North Vietnamese offensive on March 10.
I believe that I have explained to the Prime Minister what our general objectives in Indochina are. It is obvious that it cannot be the policy of this Administration to maintain permanent bases in Indochina, or to continue in Indochina the policies that were originated by the Secretary of State who refused to shake hands with the Prime Minister. It isn't… we are in a different historical phase. We believe that the future of our relationship with Peking is infinitely more important for the future of Asia that what happens in Phnom Penh, in Hanoi or in Saigon.
When President Johnson put American troops into Vietnam, you will remember that he justified it in part on the ground that what happened in Indochina was masterminded in Peking and was part of a plot to take over the world. Dean Rusk said this in a statement.
President Johnson
You were then engaged in the Cultural Revolution and not, from my reading it, emphasizing foreign adventures.
So that, the mere fact that we are sitting in this room changes the objective basis of the original intervention in Indochina. For us who inherited the war, our problem has been how to liquidate it in a way that does not affect our entire international position and − this is not your primary concern − the domestic stability in the United States. So we have genuinely attempted to end the war, and as you may or may not know, I personally started negotiations with the North Vietnamese in 1967 when I was only at the periphery of the government, at a time when it was very unpopular, because I believed there had to be a political end to the war.
So from the time we came into office we have attempted to end this war. And we have understood, as I told you before, that the Democratic Republic of Vietnam is a permanent factor on the Indochinese peninsula and probably the strongest entity. And we have had no interest in destroying it or even in defeating it. After the end of the war, we will have withdrawn 12,000 miles. The Democratic Republic of Vietnam will still be 300 miles from Saigon. That is a reality which they don't seem to understand. (Page 28 – 29)
To reassure Chou En-lai the U.S. would normalize relationship with Hanoi in about 10 years, Dr. Kissinger promised:
– Dr. Kissinger: It is on one level. But on the other, when we make an agreement in Indochina, it will be to make a new relationship. If we can make it with Peking why can we not do it with Hanoi? What has Hanoi done to us that would make it impossible to, say in ten years, establish a new relationship? (Page 31)
And below is Dr. Kissinger's statement in the last paragraph on page 37:
Dr. Kissinger: So we should find a way to end the war, to stop it from being an international situation, and then permit a situation to develop in which the future on Indochina can be returned to the Indochinese people. And I can assure you that this is the only object we have in Indochina, and I do not believe this can be so different from yours. We want nothing for ourselves there. And while we cannot bring a communist government to power, if, as a result of historical evolution it should happen over a period of time, if we can live with a communist government in China, we ought to be able to accept it in Indochina. (Page 37)
It was unknown if the PRC exerted any pressure on Hanoi after this Kissinger – Chou meeting. Nevertheless, Hanoi mulishly kept stalling negotiations while continuing to attack South Vietnam. Hanoi's stubbornness infuriated President Nixon and he ordered a massive bombing campaign in North Vietnam to force Hanoi back to the negotiation table. The eleven-day deadly air raid during Xmas 1972 had accomplished what the U.S. wanted. Hanoi was on their knees and obediently returned to Paris for negotiation. From the operational and strategic point of view, the bombing must have continued to achieve a military victory when Hanoi had exhausted their air defense capability. But we, the U.S., unilaterally decided to stop the bombing, willingly declined a military victory, and was content to further negotiation with Hanoi!!!
Sir Robert Thompson, a renowned British counterinsurgency expert commented on the Xmas bombing campaign: "In my view, on December 30, 1972, after 11 days of those B-52 attacks on the Hanoi area, you had won the war, it was all over! They had fired 1242 SAM's, they had none left, and what would have come in over land from China would be a mere trickle. They and their whole rear base at that point would be at your mercy. They would have taken any terms. And that is why of course, you actually got a peace agreement in January, which you had not been able to get in October".
The RVN steadfastly refused to sign the Paris Peace Accord formulated by the U.S. and the DRV because it was dangerously in favor of the DRV. However, under repeated threats juxtaposed with serious promises by President Nixon to severely retaliate against Hanoi in the event of their violation, the RVN had no choice but to sign the agreement on January 27, 1973. A few months following the signing of the Paris Agreement, U.S. Congress passed an Amendment on June 19, 1973, forbidding all U.S. military involvement in Southeast Asia. On August 9, 1974, President Nixon resigned his presidency stemming from the Watergate scandal. On September 1974, U.S. Congress cut military aid to the RVN to the bone causing incalculable destruction to the morale of combat soldiers and the general public. During this time, the PRC and the USSR quadrupled their logistical support to Hanoi paving the way for the April 30, 1975 outcome.
In conclusion, the U.S. had to do what it must do because, as Kissinger explained to Chou in the meeting: "For us who inherited the war, our problem has been how to liquidate it in a way that does not affect our entire international position", and because of "the domestic stability in the United States". The fear of communist expansion or the domino theory disappeared with this Sino-U.S. rapprochement. Additionally, this would also open the potentially huge, lucrative market in mainland China for U.S. Corporations and investors. To achieve all these benefits, the U.S. arbitrarily accepted the deal with China in June 1972 at the expense of the RVN.
On the thirty-third anniversary of the close of that embittered chapter, as a former Vietnamese combatant of that war, I earnestly wish to reassure the younger generation of the Vietnamese American:
-In defense of our democracy in South Viet Nam against the communist, your elder generation had given, for the most part, their utmost best under the worst of circumstances. You can shamelessly look at any ignorant or misled bigot straight in the eyes with no inferior complex. These bigots may probably have been dully-influenced by slanted reports, books written by defeatist or liberal writers. You could help direct them to search for recently declassified national security documents and many impartial, honest accounts of the war portrayed by unbiased, honest writers.
To all my Vietnamese brothers-in arms:
-Of course we, the RVN and the ARVN, like most nations on earth, were not perfect. We had our share of inept political leaders as well as incompetent field commanders. We realize there were times our leader's hands were tied by our major ally. We also understand we sacrificed many best years of our lives fighting despotism to protect liberty and freedom so our citizens could dissent and even undermine our effort. Yet we had fought courageously against overwhelming odds and hundreds of thousands of our friends lost their lives for the just cause. We did not win because the outcome was determined by superpower politics. Obviously it was way beyond the soldier's responsibility. If we, the RVN, had it our way, unquestionably, the outcome of the war would have been different.
And to my American brothers in arms:
Through negotiation, our politicians settled with major world powers to end the war in Viet Nam politically. Following orders, you must withdraw from Vietnam. The last U.S. military unit left Viet Nam since March 1973. The final collapse of the RVN occurred on April 30, 1975. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the U.S. did not lose the war in Vietnam militarily. You have fulfilled the call of duty admirably. We salute you. We thank you for serving and for helping us in Viet Nam. Ironically, politics dictated the outcome. But don't be bothered; only ignorant or misled individuals would buy the notion that America lost the war in Vietnam militarily.

Lend a Helping Hand
At Rochelle Community Hospital, we believe in individual attention, and our volunteers help provide some of that individualized care. By becoming a member of the Auxiliary ($10 dues per year or $150 for a life membership), you can easily be a volunteer too. Right now, there are about 220 men and women serving as volunteers.
According to the president of the Rochelle Community Hospital Auxiliary, volunteers can possess a variety of skills. The Auxiliary will train anyone who is interested in becoming a volunteer. Any help the volunteers can offer means less money the hospital has to spend and more funds they can use to continue providing quality care and state-of-the-art equipment. And that benefits everyone.
The Gift Shoppe
The Gift Shoppe is managed solely by volunteers. Open 5-1/2 days per week, the Gift Shoppe alone uses about 50 volunteers per month. The Auxiliary also provides volunteers to give third-graders tours of the hospital, allowing the students to visit each department.
Special Events
Special events also require volunteers. For example, the Auxiliary has provided volunteers for bake sales, which are held two times per year. If a special project arises, however, the Auxiliary will provide the volunteers.
Volunteers play a big part in helping to raise funds for the hospital and buying items that might not otherwise get purchased. Each year, the Auxiliary, through volunteers and its members, is able to donate about $10,000. When the annual budget is reviewed, the Board determines what is needed and what kinds of things the Auxiliary's donations can purchase. The money has been used to buy new televisions for patient rooms, recliners, wheelchairs, a treadmill, tray delivery service, a noninvasive blood pressure monitor and a Titmus vision tester... all thanks to the individual attention of our volunteers!
In addition, the Auxiliary supports students pursuing careers in the healthcare field. A total of five $1,000 scholarships, including the $1,000 Ward and Mabel Miller Scholarship, are given annually.
To find out more about becoming a volunteer, contact the Gift Shoppe at 815-562-2181, Ext. 1180.

Global Handwashing Day was originally created for children and schools,but can be celebrated by anyone promoting handwashing with soap.
Each year on October 15, over 200 million people are involved in celebrations in over 100 countries around the world. Handwashing with soap is the most effective and inexpensive way to prevent diarrheal and acute respiratory infections, which take the lives of millions of children every year. Yet, despite its lifesaving potential, handwashing with soap is seldom practiced and difficult to promote.
Turning handwashing with soap before eating and after using the toilet into an ingrained habit could save more lives than any single vaccine or medical intervention, cutting deaths from diarrhea by almost half and deaths from acute respiratory infections by one-quarter.
Global Handwashing Day focuses on children because not only do they suffer disproportionately from diarrheal and respiratory diseases and deaths, but research shows that children can also be powerful agents for changing behaviours like handwashing with soap in their communities.
In 2012, Global Handwashing Day will share its 5th anniversary with over 121 million children who are also celebrating their 5th birthday this year. Join the celebration by promoting handwashing with soap and help more children reach their 5th birthday!

KALAMAZOO—A Western Michigan University student was honored recently for his aviation maintenance technology skills, winning top honors at the national 2013 SkillsUSA Championship.
Andrew Kincaid, of Battle Creek, Mich., was one of six participants from around the nation recognized for this skill set—and one of only two in this category who took home top Gold honors—during the weeklong event in Kansas City, Mo. This is the first year a WMU student entered the competition.
Kincaid, a senior studying aviation maintenance technology at WMU, joined more than 5,900 other career and technical education students who competed in 98 different trade, technical and leadership fields during the weeklong event. His three advisors at the University were Jeremy Hierholzer, faculty specialist I; Gail Rouscher, faculty specialist I; and Terry Michmerhuizen, assistant professor.
Working against the clock and each other, participants proved their expertise in job skills for occupations such as electronics, technical drafting, precision machining, medical assisting and culinary arts. There were also competitions in leadership skills, such as extemporaneous speaking and conducting meetings by parliamentary procedures.
Aviation maintenance technology contestants performed 12 tasks that represented the types of maintenance they will handle in the aircraft industry. The contest scope is consistent with the airframe and power plant mechanics certification guide published by the Federal Aviation Administration. Aviation maintenance is the only maintenance profession certified by the federal government.
SkillsUSA is the national organization for students in trade, industrial, technical and health occupations education. It sponsors the SkillsUSA Championships annually to recognize the achievements of career and technical education students and to encourage them to strive for excellence and pride in their chosen occupations.

**Our Clinical & Scientific Advisory Board is interested to know of any pregnancies and live births from adolescents and adults with PWS, and information about male fertility and sexual activity. Please contact us directly.
Infertility was believed to be a characteristic of all adults with PWS until 1999, when for the first-time a pregnancy was reported in a woman with PWS who had a deletion 15q. Subsequently another four women with PWS becoming pregnant have been documented worldwide. At least two of the children are normal and two have Angelman syndrome, but little clinical information is otherwise available about the children. As of this writing, there have been no reports of fertility in men with PWS.
Hypogonadism with low levels of sex hormones (oestrogen in women and testosterone in men) is very common in PWS. A complicated interaction between hormones from the hypothalamus, the pituitary and the ovaries in women or the testes in men, regulates the levels of sex hormones. A normal level of hormones and a normal function of involved glands is necessary for sexual development and fertility. Thus, a dysfunction in any of these glands will result in hypogonadism and decreased/absent fertility. Moreover, sex hormones are important for the development of secondary sexual characteristics, body composition, bone mineral density and quality of life.
Despite the known hypothalamic dysfunction in PWS, recent studies have shown that the hypogonadism is also caused by an impaired function of the ovaries and testes. Therefore, the flaw may lie along the continuum from complete primary (ovaries/testes) hypogonadism to complete central (hypothalamus/pituitary) hypogonadism.
In women with PWS this can lead to delayed menarche, absent or infrequent ovulations, absent or irregular periods, and infertility/decreased fertility. Most women with PWS are infertile, but the hormonal levels required for potential fertility are present in some. In men with PWS viable spermatozoas (necessary for fertility) have not been described, in some possibly a function of undescended testes if not corrected early in childhood. In both genders obesity or being overweight can lead to or further impair hypogonadism and infertility presumably due to the production of oestrogen in fat cells hampering the function of the hypothalamus and the pituitary. Similarly, treatment with oestrogen and testosterone suppress the secretion of hormones from the hypothalamus and pituitary. Conversely, a significant weight loss or change in medication might increase the hormone levels; there are reports of fertility in some women on serotoninergic agents, like fluoxetine. However, the presence of menstrual periods whether induced by treatment with oestrogen or of natural onset in young women does not indicate fertility, unless ovulations occur.
Fertility is best evaluated by measuring the relevant hormones. Typically, in adults with PWS the pituitary hormone FSH will be high in both genders, oestrogen will be low in women and testosterone will be low in men. However, dependent on which hormone-secreting gland is not functioning appropriately, different hormone levels can be seen. For example, undetectable levels of the hormone inhibin B (from ovaries/testes) are associated with infertility and detectable levels with potential fertility. In most adults with PWS inhibin B is undetectable, but in some women detectable levels have been found and fertility might be possible. In principle, study of the ejaculate can completely rule out fertility in men, but due to sexual dysfunction, cognitive and behavioural problems, obtaining ejaculate is usually not feasible. It is unknown what percentage of men with PWS are capable of an ejaculation, but the Clinical and Scientific Advisory Board (CSAB) of IPWSO knows of two men with examination of ejaculate, both negative for sperms.
Sex hormone treatment is not mandatory for life and is not feasible for all. Fertility will not be
gained by treatment with oestrogen or testosterone, but in both genders sexual hormone replacement may be important for developing an adult appearance, for bone mineral density and muscle and organ function, altogether leading to an improved quality of life.
Before initiating replacement of sex hormones, potential benefits and risks must be balanced. In women, the well-known risks of thromboembolism, breast cancer and mood variations have to be considered. In men, attention has to be paid to the effect of testosterone on mood and behaviour, which may be dose related. An individualised approach to hormone therapy is key. Treatment must be carefully monitored and adapted to the patient starting with low dose. In men, it is important to progress treatment gradually. Parents and caregivers should be carefully informed, especially about the body changes in men (face and body hair, deepening of voice, etc). In women, those caregivers need to understand the important distinction between treatment of hypogonadism and birth control management.
Despite the hypogonadism, adults with PWS often express strong romantic thoughts and an interest in sexual experiences. Some, both women and men, express fantasies of getting married and/or having children of their own, often mirroring these desires by playing with dolls as adults. Their interest in creating a family may coincide with the birth of a niece or nephew, or when they experience their parents becoming grandparents. Fertility in PWS raises many medical and ethical issues and appropriate anticipatory guidance, counselling and education is important.
Romantic relationships may be perceived in many different ways by persons with PWS, and it is important to discern fantasy from a more actionable situation. Some may claim to be engaged to be married and indicate that a marriage date has been set, even though they have minimal contact with or personal knowledge about the identified person. Others may have a real girlfriend or boyfriend and describe a dating relationship of variable intensity; they may be content to display affection through hand holding and kissing without actual sexual contact. A few may enter into what can be described as a serious relationship that might include sexual intercourse. First, it is important to evaluate their level of understanding of sexual function and "where babies come from." Second, their understanding of the rules and responsibilities, boundaries, and personal safety around sexual behaviour must be explored. Finally, their knowledge of the risks of sexually transmitted diseases must be assessed. Equally important is the need to ascertain whether sex is being exchanged for food or whether the person with PWS is being taken advantage of sexually. If this is discovered, a referral to the proper agency for investigation is required. Finally, individuals with PWS often display interpersonal conflict in their relationships. They may have difficulty sharing, meeting the expectations of others, or making empathic connections. Their level of emotional maturity may not be conducive to the level of judgment, commitment, and intimacy necessary in a marriage, even with the help of parents or guardians.
Many young adult men and women with PWS will express a desire to have a baby. In most cases, this idea comes from an earlier psychological stage of the family romance, such as playing with dolls. This wish can be acknowledged, discussed, and addressed through counselling. It is often managed through substitution, such as caring for a pet, being involved in the lives of nieces and nephews, being directly supervised in activities with small children, or accepting that not all adults in society have children. When the desire for a baby is complicated by actual fertility, it may be difficult for the woman with PWS to accept the use of contraceptives. In these cases, anticipatory guidance requires the involvement of the parent or guardian. Family, religious and social values should play a major part in these discussions. At least one abortion has occurred.
Articles and narratives of the five pregnancies in women with PWS suggest that the gestations and deliveries were uncomplicated. Three babies were delivered by planned caesarean sections. All of the mothers were unable to breast feed and bond with the children, and the infants were cared for by others, most often relatives. Common for all was also an incapacity to put the needs of the child ahead of their personal needs and desires, especially about food. As described in one case "As long as the baby didn't cry or want to be fed when the mother wanted her own meals, all was fine".
The genetics of the children born to mothers with PWS has varied. Theoretically, the chances of a fertile woman with PWS having a healthy baby depend on what genetic type of PWS she has. A woman with maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) is likely to have a healthy baby, everything else being equal. A woman with a deletion has a 50% chance of having a baby with Angelman syndrome.
There are no known cases, yet, of a male with PWS fathering a child.
In summary:
• Sex hormone replacement can be important and a treatment option that should be considered
• Sex hormone treatment is not feasible for everyone and an individualised approach is
important also concerning dosages
• Fertility is not gained by treatment with sex hormones
• Assessment of fertility/pregnancy for those in sexual relationships
• Care should be taken to prevent exploitative relationships
• Much more knowledge is needed

'Howlers' Robert Priddy Claims 2002 Interview Was Given In 2010
Posted June 28, 2010on:
- In: Allegations Against Sathya Sai Baba | Barry Pittard | Ex-Devotees | Gerald Joe Moreno | Gerald Moreno | Joe Moreno | Robert C Priddy | Robert Priddy | Sai Baba | Sathya Sai Baba
- Comments Off on 'Howlers' Robert Priddy Claims 2002 Interview Was Given In 2010
'Howlers' Robert Priddy Claims 2002 Interview Was Given In 2010
Senile Robert Priddy (a caustic critic and defamer of Sathya Sai Baba who once hailed the Guru as God Incarnate) recently wrote an article for his Anti-Baba blog entitled "Interview With Sathya Sai Baba 2010".
The only wee problem with Robert Priddy's hysterical and pathetic article is that the interview he claimed to have occurred in 2010 actually happened in 2002, or eight years ago! As a matter of fact, Robert Priddy's screencap (yes, the one he made himself) showed the 2002 date in it. Furthermore, Robert Priddy was attempting to expose "new howlers" against Sathya Sai Baba. How ironic! Let us take a look at Robert Priddy's senility in action:
Robert Priddy: "Once again Sathya Sai Baba has given an interview, this time to Russian ladies. It is mostly the same in content as thousands of interviews, the same words to the same questions. The same superficial and flawed answers, but this time introducing a couple of new howlers of the kind only Sai Baba can manage in all seriousness. Why the website saibabaofindia.com posts such rubbish would be a mystery, but evidently those responsible do not realise the absurdity:"
And now for an epiphany…Yes, once again Robert Priddy tried to dupe his readers with disinformation…The same superficial and flawed disinformation, but this time introducing a couple of new howlers of the kind only Robert Priddy can manage in all seriousness. Why Robert Priddy posts such rubbish would be a mystery, but evidently he does not realise the absurdity!
Welcome to Robert Priddy's looney-tune world. If you look on the right-side menu, you'll notice a blurb under Robert Priddy's picture that says in part:
Robert Priddy: "I was 73 last September, am healthy and with unimpaired mind and memory…"
"Unimpaired mind and memory"? Apparently, Robert Priddy doesn't realize the absurdity of that comment either.
Now, let us take a look at a screencap from the original saibabaofindia.com article. Notice the unmistakable date (given twice, one in bold & large font) as "25.06.2002" (June 25th 2002).
One will also notice that Robert Priddy's alleged screencap of the saibabaofindia.com domain is not how their page looks like. This is not surprising considering Robert Priddy's brazen acts of screencap fraud, which now seems to be extending to other websites as well.
Attention Robert Priddy: Step away from the computer and seek medical and psychiatric help for your problems, as they seem many. Also, Gerald Moreno suggests you buy a mirror if you really want something to "howl" at.

I'm trying to enter a Khmer document into Bibleworks. Khmer unicode is not supported, so I'm using a non-unicode font (Limon S1) that remaps Roman characters to Khmer characters, similar to the Bibleworks Greek and Hebrew fonts.
I'm running into problems with single quotation marks. Both the opening and closing single quotation marks ( and ) are used as Khmer characters.
There is no Khmer language setting. If I set the language to "English," Bibleworks changes the single quotation marks to ' , which makes the Khmer characters appear incorrectly.
If I set the language to "Other," then the single quotation marks are fine. However, this creates a different problem. When I do a word search, Bibleworks will often highlight both the search word AND the word previous. See screenshot below.
If the language is set to English, then Bibleworks will (correctly) highlight only the search word.
Is there any way I can get the single quotation marks not changed, and also have the highlighting be correct?

If you don't come by car, you can take the buss line 700, which has endstations in Tvøroyri and Sumba. Porkeri is between these villages. If you come from Tvøroyri or Krambatangi port, where the ferry Smyril arrives to from Tórshavn, take the buss 700 and tell the driver where you want to go to and ask him to tell you when you are in Porkeri. If you come to Suðuroy by car, than you should turn left when you come to the main road, drive towards strait south, you will drive through a little village, which is called Øravík, than you come to a road tunnel and after that you pass by Hov, which also is a little village. After Hov you will drive above Porkeri, don't take the first turn to Porkeri, which is an old narrow road, continue until you reach the more recent and modern road with two lanes, which takes you to the village Porkeri.

Creature from the Haunted Sea (1961) – Roger Corman
CategoriesComedy Free Classic Movies
Creature from the Haunted Sea is a 1961 cult film directed by Roger Corman from a screenplay by Charles B. Griffith. It is a comedy film spoofing the "sea monsters" genre. It can be considered a part of two different "trilogies", either as the third in a Corman-Griffith comedy trilogy consisting of this film and the dark comedies, A Bucket of Blood and The Little Shop of Horrors, or a part of Corman's "Puerto Rico trilogy," also consisting of Last Woman on Earth and Battle of Blood Island. Fred Katz's musical score for this film was originally written for A Bucket of Blood and was also used in The Little Shop of Horrors as well.

Davey says Detwiler unlikely for next start
WASHINGTON -- When asked if Ross Detwiler will be able to come off the 15-day disabled list and make his scheduled start on Tuesday, Nationals manager Davey Johnson sighed.
"I'm not hopeful at this point," Johnson said.
Detwiler has been on the disabled list since July 4 with a back strain. He played catch on flat ground on Thursday, but continues to have soreness in the back the day after throwing.
Johnson doesn't expect the left-hander to make his next start, or the one after that against the Mets next weekend. Rookie Taylor Jordan will continue to fill in for Detwiler in the Nationals' rotation.
"For me, [Detwiler] would have to throw today or tomorrow, and do a side [session] and then get out and pitch in a game. And I don't think we're going to do it by [next weekend]," Johnson said. "But I'm going to put that question to our great medical staff, see if they can't get him ready to go."
If Detwiler is unable to start in the Nationals' doubleheader against the Mets, Johnson said that he would probably start Jordan and Ross Ohlendorf rather than dip into the Minor Leagues for an additional starter.

A Message from the Headteacher
We strive so that "we are all working together to create a happy and stimulating
learning environment where everyone can develop their full potential"
Our values and aims are:
- To create a stimulating learning environment both indoors and outdoors where children feel safe, are eager to learn and have fun.
- To offer a broad and balanced curriculum with high expectations, which is planned, purposeful, challenging and inclusive.
- To develop childrens self-worth, confidence, understanding and respect for others, working independently and as part of a team.
- To work with parents as partners in the education of their children and to encourage them to be involved in all aspects of school life.
- As a village school maintain and develop links with the community and play a key role within it.
- To celebrate and share success however small.
- To foster understanding of the wider world and their role within it, encouraging imagination and a sense of wonder.
- To create the foundations for a lifelong love of learning.
We provide, through a broad and balanced curriculum, opportunities for all children to express their talents and experience success, thus promoting selfconfidence, self-belief and independence. We believe that when pupils are excited and enthusiastic about coming to school they will achieve very high standards and develop beyond their perceived potential.
We lead children to understand that they have rights as well as responsibilities within a caring and forgiving community. We encourage tolerance and respect for people, property and the wider environment. We see school as an integral part of the community and a place where all achievements are applauded. To this end we provide Breakfast and after-school clubs, and Pre-school and Toddler groups on site! To realise these aims we have a strong partnership of parents, teachers, support staff and governors all working together with the interests of the pupils at the core of this community.
Julie Sharpe, Headteacher
