My dad bought me a pair about 7 years ago when I was 11, and man... were they great moccasins... they stretched out as well, but now they'll barely fit so I'm gonna have to buy another pair, and it will be money well spent. If you're looking for a great pair of moccasins, look no further!

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. - Get out your Kevlar umbrellas, Westchester County. Friday's prediction -- for severe weather in the form of thunderstorms, high winds and possibly hail in our region -- probably should not come as a surprise, considering the severe and unpredictable weather we have experienced throughout the past couple of seasons.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, severe weather in our region Friday afternoon will bridge the heat we've been enduring and the cool weather that will follow. Be prepared for the possibility of dangerous lightning and heavy downpours, along with the potential for hail.
The good news? Saturday should bring lower temperatures and humidity.

An Uruguayan border officer watches Argentine environmentalists arrive for a demonstration, at Uruguay's border near Fray Bentos city October 6, 2013. The demonstration was called by Argentine environmentalists to protest against a decision of Uruguay's President Jose Mujica who announced on October 2 the decision to allow UPM-Kymmene to increase production of cellulose in their pulp mill located on the Uruguayan bank of the Uruguay River shared with Argentina despite environment concerns that could trigger diplomatic issues between both countries.

Clonezilla is a partition or disk cloning tool similar to Symantec Ghost. It saves and restores only blocks in use on the hard drive if the file system is supported. For unsupported file systems, dd is used instead. It has been used to clone a 5 GB system to 40 clients in about 10 minutes.
GroupOffice is a groupware suite that takes your office online, implementing online collaboration and CRM. It allows you to share projects, calendars, files and email online with co-workers and clients. It is easy to use and fully customizable. It also features synchronization with PDAs and Outlook.
Brimbox is a database system that was designed to bridge the gap between spreadsheets and custom databases. It is intended to be an alternative to Access and Filemaker. Although Brimbox has its own modular approach, it is customizable in the spirit of Wordpress, though it is a database interface and not a CMS.
cipra is a simple, TAP-compatible Unit Testing Framework for C++. It's written in 100% standard C++11 and is only a couple of header files, making it easy to include in your C++11 project. TAP, the Test Anything Protocol, is a standard output format for software unit test frameworks which was originally designed for Perl, but can serve other languages. It has a rich number of tools ("harnesses") which parse TAP-formatted output and do useful things with it. TAP, however, is equally human-readable. The name cipra (pronounced /ˈʃi.pɾaː/ "SHEE-prah") comes from the lojban phrase "lo cipra", which means "the test". It is properly written with an initial minuscule "c", even when at the start of a sentence.
Gcmc is a front-end language for generating G-code, SVG, and DXF for CNC mills, lathes, laser cutters, and other numerically controlled machines employing G-code, SVG, or DXF. The language is a context-free grammar created to overcome the archaic format of G-code programming, but can be used more generally for many targets. Gcmc aims to be more readable and understandable than G-code and enable programmatic designing. Gcmc makes extensive use of vector mathematics to support the 3D nature of CNC machining. It handles units as millimeters, mils (inch), degrees, and radians and performs automatic conversions where necessary.
OpenLaunch is a Web-based content management system that integrates a broad array of services into a single, fully-featured, elegantly designed Web site. The project aims to eliminte the difficulty of integrating multiple systems into a single Web site by implementing a blog, forum, Web pages, wiki, and (coming soon) E-Commerce and support tickets. It is built around the Torpedo Framework, an open MVC framework which includes support for controllers, forms, and a large number of other very useful utilities.

(Spoiler alert.. Read At Your Own Risk)
~The "Pain Worshipping" Zombie Family- Summoned from their rest by the reading of a Latin phrase found in a diary (A la Evil Dead) These inbred freaks use a variety of weapons, from knives and axes to saws and bear traps on chains to rip apart their victims, they are the main creatures "chosen" by the group.
~"Buzz-saw Head"- my nickname for the Pinhead-esque creature seen during the elevator scene. This was probably my favorite creature, he is extremely creepy and sinister, with several buzz-saw blades slicing through his skull. He would have been summoned if Curt had solved a puzzle ball. (Perhaps this is the "Fornicus" on IMDb?)
~The Ballerina- a very disturbing creature, it looks like a 12 year old girl wearing a ballerina outfit, but instead of a face, it has a gaping mouth, with rows and rows of sharp teeth, reminiscent of the Kraken from Pirates of the Caribbean. Would havebeen summoned by a jewelry/ music box
~The Merman- Probably the source of the most ironic kill in the movie, the Mermen are a near obsession of one of the lead staff members, who's main concern throughout the film is wishing the group had "chosen" the Mermen. It has a scaly, dolphin-like taiI, and a bloated semi- human face. The best part is that after consuming flesh, it spurts blood from it's blowhole. Would have been summoned by a conch shell
~Giant Snake- a huge, CGI cobra, which eats several SWAT team and staff members.
~Werewolf- the first creature seen in the Elevator scene, this beast has a somewhat large role in the final showdown of the film.
~"Angry Molesting Tree"- written on the "Bet Board", an homage to EVIL DEAD, attacks a SWAT team member from an elivator.
~Dragonbat- a cool CGI creature, it attacks several SWAT team members and is thrown into the small control room with the two surviving protagonists (Dana and Marty)
~Scarecrows- Attack Truman (The "New Guy") in the main control room
~Zombie arm- attacks Guard, ends up being extremely helpful to the protagonists...
~Clown- attacks several staff members, is impervious to bullets, kills using a small knife while giggling
~Robot- a small robot with several appendages ending in saws, blades and pointy objects, drives around killing people
~Masked Lawyers- one of the only creatures in photos released before the movie, these well- dressed murderers are extremely eerie.
~Japanese Floaty Girl- a nod to recent Japanese horror films, this is the creature "chosen" by a classroom of 9 year old girls, who manage to defeat it by singing to turning it into a frog, marking the first time the Japanese team has Failed the sacrifice.
~Ancient Gods- Last, but certainly not least, the Ancient evil Gods which these ritual sacrifices are meant to appease, they seem to be giant humanoids, judging from the huge CGI hand, which appears to be made of Volcanic rock, with small cracks of molten lava.
**There are probably hundreds more that I left out, but these were the ones that stuck out in my mind after one viewing.**

Does Spot love you so much that when you leave she can't stand it? Does she get so upset that your rugs, furniture, and anything else she can reach or knock down show signs of her affection? If she is a well-behaved dog when you're home and only turns into a nut case when she can't be with you, then Spot is probably suffering from separation anxiety. It is estimated that 10-15 percent of the canine population experiences some type of separation anxiety. Separation anxiety is tied to a dog's natural instinct to be part of a pack, which explains why cats do not seem to suffer from this problem. But there are many things you can do to help your lonely pooch out. She certainly deserves the help; after all, she acts out because she wants to be around you.
The difference between separation anxiety and just plain bad behavior is easy to see: pets with separation anxiety only act out when they are unable to get to their owners. In severe cases, anxious pooches will act out even when their owner is simply in another room with the door shut. Common ways of acting out include destructive behavior, excessive barking, house soiling, attempts to escape, loss of appetite, inactivity, sadness or depression, and psychosomatic disorders such as diarrhea, vomiting, and excessive coat licking. Also, a dog suffering from separation anxiety will often closely shadow her owner when they're together.
Why does your dog suffer from separation anxiety while your neighbor's dog is fine? The possibilities abound. Some dogs simply do not ever gain enough confidence in themselves to be on their own. For some, it's because they were left alone for too long when they were puppies. Others have had the misfortune of being abused or neglected. There are some poor pups that are pushed from home to home until they finally end up in an animal shelter; needless to say, they might be afraid of being left again.
Often a beloved pet is fine for years, then suddenly begins to act out. If her behavior seems inexplicable, take a look at the changes in your lifestyle that occurred around the same time Spot decided she loved the taste of your favorite chair. Maybe Mom went back to work or the kids left for college. Perhaps you got a new job requiring longer hours. Whatever the reason, Spot is spending more time alone and she doesn't know what to do with herself.
A dogs bathroom schedule could influence anxiety. When a dog has to try to hold it past the point of being comfortable it builds anxiety. If this is repeated routinely then she will become anxious at the thought of you leaving for long periods of time. This leads to anxiety as soon as you start to get ready to leave.
Dealing with separation anxiety is different than dealing with just the problem behaviors. First, you must learn to check your anger at the door. Punishing Spot will not fix the problem--it will only make it worse. Once she associates your absence and return with punishment, her anxiety will increase (punishment can simply be a stern voice upon your return). Your dog will automatically become submissive; they behave this way because it is natural to submit to the leader when they become angry, not because she knows what she did wrong.
There are many different ways you can help your dog deal with her fear. Your number one goal is to teach her that you can be trusted to come back. One of the first exercises to practice is "sit and stay." This will prepare your panicky pet for practice departures. Make Spot "sit and stay" while you move from one place to another. If she obeys, give her a treat. If she couldn't stand it and didn't stay, try it again for a shorter time and distance. Once you find something that works (even if it's just moving from the living room to the dining room) you can slowly increase the time and distance. This builds confidence in your pet and this helps them to handle times alone much better.
The next step is to change your habits. Think about your routine. Do you do the same things every time you walk out the door? Kissing your spouse, grabbing your bag, closing your briefcase or even picking up your keys can tell Spot that you're leaving. She associates your preparations to leave with her destructive behavior. Your goal is to change your pattern, teaching her new cues that let her know that you're always coming back and help disassociate her learned, destructive behavior from your absence. Do something unusual and different from your normal routine: turn on the radio or television, or give Spot a treat. There are many toys and treats designed to entertain your pet while you're out. A Kong toy stuffed with food is a popular option--she will spend many distracted hours working to get the food out.
Begin using your new cue when you start doing practice departures. The key here is to take baby steps and to be very patient. When you first give Spot the new cue, leave the house for just a minute or two--a time short enough that you know Spot will be all right. When you come back, avoid a big fuss and simply go about your business. The expectation of a big to-do when you come home only increases her anxiety level. Practicing departures does the same thing as the "sit and stay" training; you're teaching Spot that when you leave you will come back. Slowly, you will increase her confidence in you and in herself. Continue to practice your departures all day long for increasingly longer amounts of time. Stay away a couple of minutes longer each time, but remember to take it slow. If Spot becomes upset at a certain point cut the time in half and be patient. For example, if Spot acts out after two hours, then decrease the time to one hour and work your way back up from there. Repeat the cycle over and over again, until Spot is confident that you will always return.
Ideally you will be able to spend at least a week gradually easing Spot into a new level of self-confidence. If you don't have that much time, try to begin early on a Friday evening and continue the practice departures throughout the weekend. There are new anxiety drugs on the market that can help calm your anxious pup if you don't have enough consecutive hours to work on correcting Spot's behavior. These drugs are not sedatives; instead, they are designed especially for dogs with separation anxiety. Dogs take a daily dose to relieve some of their anxiety, making it easier for them to learn new, better behavior. Once the new behavior is learned, the medication can be discontinued. As with any drug, be sure to visit your veterinarian to ensure the medication is appropriate for your specific pet.
Another strategy to help you deal with the problem is to take Spot out for a good walk before you leave the house. Not only will you spend some quality time together, it will also help tucker her out, making it more likely she will spend her time away from you sleeping. Another benefit to the long walk is that once Spot sees the pattern, she will have something to look forward to when you leave. And the exercise will be great for both of you.
With these tools, you should be well on your way to boosting Spot's self-confidence. With enough time and patience you can teach Spot that you love her just as much as she loves you. Eventually she will realize that you won't leave her. Don't be afraid to seek professional help. Ask your veterinarian for suggestions, or if the problem persists, ask your veterinarian to recommend a behavior specialist. Chances are both you and your dog will benefit from some one-on-one guidance. Together, you can transform her anxious love and your tattered home into a secure peace you both can enjoy.

Media Advisory
December 12, 2011
by Hudson Institute
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12, 201--Another UN climate conference, this one in Durban, South Africa, is closing in failure. Environmentalists are angrily denouncing President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for its collapse. Yet many economists fault the environmentalists' own climate agenda as too rigid, too costly, and far too unrealistic.
Are environmentalists and economists locked in a new holy war over climate change? If so, who will win, and who is right? Three of the countries' top experts will discuss these issues on Tuesday, December 13 at Hudson Institute. Hudson President & CEO Kenneth Weinstein will moderate the discussion.
This event coincides with the launch of a new report by Hudson Visiting Fellow Lee Lane, entitled History, Ideology, and U.S. Climate Policy: Beyond the Orthodoxies of Left and Right. The full report is available for download here or on Hudson's website, www.hudson.org.
What: | Panel discussion on climate change and environmentalism, "Climate Policy Holy Wars: Clashing Secular Religions and Stubborn Economic Realities" |
Who: | Robert Nelson, University of Maryland Professor and Fellow, Independent Institute |

Kenneth Weinstein (moderator), Hudson Institute President & CEO | |

In Brief
- At some point between 195,000 and 123,000 years ago, the population size of Homo sapiens plummeted, thanks to cold, dry climate conditions that left much of our ancestors' African homeland uninhabitable. Everyone alive today is descended from a group of people from a single region who survived this catastrophe.
- The southern coast of Africa would have been one of the few spots where humans could survive during this climate crisis, because it harbors an abundance of shellfish and edible plants.
- Excavations of a series of sites in this region have recovered items left behind by what may have been that progenitor population.
- The discoveries confirm the idea that advanced cognitive abilities evolved earlier than previously thought—and may have played a key role in the survival of the species during tough times.
More In This Article
With the global population of humans currently approaching seven billion, it is difficult to imagine that Homo sapiens was once an endangered species. Yet studies of the DNA of modern-day people indicate that, once upon a time, our ancestors did in fact undergo a dramatic population decline. Although scientists lack a precise timeline for the origin and near extinction of our species, we can surmise from the fossil record that our forebears arose throughout Africa shortly before 195,000 years ago. Back then the climate was mild and food was plentiful; life was good. But around 195,000 years ago, conditions began to deteriorate. The planet entered a long glacial stage known as Marine Isotope Stage 6 (MIS6) that lasted until roughly 123,000 years ago.
A detailed record of Africa's environmental conditions during glacial stage 6 does not exist, but based on more recent, better-known glacial stages, climatologists surmise that it was almost certainly cool and arid and that its deserts were probably significantly expanded relative to their modern extents. Much of the landmass would have been uninhabitable. While the planet was in the grip of this icy regime, the number of people plummeted perilously—from more than 10,000 breeding individuals to just hundreds. Estimates of exactly when this bottleneck occurred and how small the population became vary among genetic studies, but all of them indicate that everyone alive today is descended from a small population that lived in one region of Africa sometime during this global cooling phase.

Kassel is home to the 38th UNESCO World Heritage site in Germany: Wilhelmshöhe Park was added to the famous list of world cultural and natural heritage sites on 23 June 2013. The UNESCO World Heritage committee paid tribute to Wilhelmshöhe Park as a unique baroque fusion of art , technology and architecture.
Landgrave Karl of Hesse-Kassel's love for Italy crystallised when he set eyes upon the monumental statue of Hercules in Rome. The task of turning the Landgrave's dream into reality fell to an architect from Rome called Giovanni Francesco Guerniero, who created this magnificent estate in the Habichtswald hills between 1701 and 1711. Towering atop a steep 527-metre hill is an octagonal monument crowned by the famous Hercules statue. This figure of the classical virtuous hero came to symbolise the Landgrave himself and provided the inspiration for the Hermann the Cheruscan Monument in the Teutoburg Forest and the Statue of Liberty in New York. Beneath the statue, water gushes down a magnificent cascade, passing plateaus and grottos before emptying into the 'Neptune basin'. In 1785 Elector Wilhelm I set about transforming the surrounding scenery into the romantic wooded park we see today, with its water features, embankments and bridges. Due to its sheer size, its extensive network of paths, and the influence of the weather and seasons, the park offers constantly changing vistas and new impressions, even for those who have been coming for years. On Wednesdays and Sundays during the summer, visitors flock to see the fountain displays, which are festively illuminated on the first Saturday of the month. Named after Elector Wilhelm I, Wilhelmshöhe Palace was built between 1786 and 1798. Its fully intact Weissenstein Wing boasts royal apartments with exquisite furnishings in the Empire and classical styles, a luxurious bathing room and paintings by Johannes Heinrich Tischbein. The refurbished central section of the palace now serves as a museum featuring a fine collection of paintings by the Old Masters.
Nearby attractions
A short distance away in Kassel is a German rococo gem in the form of Wilhelmsthal Palace, 50 years older than Wilhelmshöhe and with a landscaped garden. Kassel also marks the middle point of the 600km German Fairytale Route, which links towns, cities and countryside associated with the Brothers Grimm and their stories.

Even after being shutout for delegates in Louisiana - where Newt Gingrich spent over seven days campaigning - there was no hint from Newt Gingrich that he is looking to get out of the Republican race for the White House.
Gingrich's schedule for the next week featured multiple days of events by his wife Callista in her home state of Wisconsin, which votes on April 3; his own schedule will take him to Wisconsin, three other states and the District of Columbia:
Monday, March 26th - Remarks to the New Castle, Sussex & Kent County GOP Member Meeting - Hockessin, Delaware
Tuesday, March 27th - Maryland - TBD
Wednesday, March 28th - North Carolina - TBD
Thursday, March 29th - Washington, DC - TBD
Newt 2012 Marquette Rally - Marquette University
Friday, March 30th - Newt 2012 Green Bay Rally
Saturday, March 31st - Waukesha, WI
Sunday, April 1st - Washington, DC - TBD
What are your thoughts? Should Gingrich stay in the race? Can he realistically win any delegates in upcoming contests?

FRANKLIN COUNTY, FL (WCTV/CNN) – Two inmates convicted of murder who were mistakenly released from prison have been captured.
Charles Walker and Joseph Jenkins were arrested at a hotel in Panama City, FL, and taken into custody without incident. Both men were serving life sentences without the possibility of parole.
Florida law enforcement coordinated with U.S. marshals to locate and capture the escaped inmates.
"It's kind of scary," said resident Kim Brannan.
Brannan lives just a half mile from the Franklin Correctional Institution in Carabbelle, FL. She discovered the two inmates were released from the facility just one day apart.
The Department of Corrections said the two were released because of forged documents granting their freedom.
"Well, this is an instance where the department received documents from the court. We initiated our typical procedure for an inmate release," said Misty Cash of the Department of Corrections. "The department followed our procedures and protocols to the letter, so in this instance the department didn't do anything wrong."
Cash compared the forged documents to counterfeit money – you don't realize it until it's too late.
"You pass that $20 bill on because by all appearances, it's a $20 bill," said Cash.
Officials with the department of corrections said they would investigate making changes to their procedures.
"We're going to do whatever needs to be done. If anything needs to be done to make sure that public safety is number one," said Cash.
But for Brannan it's a situation that needed to be dealt with a lot sooner.
"They could still be here, and you wouldn't have known to be aware of anything until today," said Brannan.

Obama's Double Standard on Reporting Government Abuses
At the start of his February 22 press briefing, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney offered a tribute to deceased reporters Marie Colvin, Remi Ochlik, and Anthony Shadid, all of whom had given their lives, he said, "in order to bring the truth about what's happening in a country like Syria to those of us at home and in countries around the world."--
Syria: From Valued Ally to "Vicious Enemy"
Is the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad, in the opinion of U.S. officials, a valued ally or a murderous, tyrannical regime? It all depends on which day you ask.
Ron Paul: Excessive Defense Spending Endangers U.S.
Three of the four remaining candidates for the Republican presidential nomination have spoken out against planned reductions in future defense spending. Both former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich have urged President Barack Obama to prevent the sequestering of $600 billion from the defense budget over the next 10 years as required by last summer's debt ceiling deal. Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum stated categorically that he "would absolutely not cut one penny out of military spending."
Mideast Expert, Ron Paul Agree: U.S. Actions Make War with Iran Likely
U.S. sanctions on Iran are "acts of war." The Iranian government, which views the sanctions, along with assassinations of its nuclear scientists and belligerent rhetoric from Washington, as precursors to "regime change," is seeking to obtain nuclear weapons "as a deterrent to foreign intervention." War could occur at any moment, and the only way to avert it with any certainty is for "Western powers [to] imagine how the situation looks from Tehran."
CIA Drone Assassinations Violate the Law of War
Romney's Foreign Policy: Bush/Obama Redux
"When it comes to foreign policy, if you like George W. Bush and Barack Obama, you'll love Mitt Romney." That was the unspoken theme of a speech the former Massachusetts Governor and 2012 Republican presidential contender delivered Friday at the Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina. Inveighing against "crawl[ing] into an isolationist shell," Romney offered instead a program of hyper-interventionism in which no problem anywhere in the world is too small or remote for Washington's involvement.
Huge U.S. Iraq Embassy to Increase Staff, Budget
Observers might think that the largest, most expensive embassy ever built — the $750 million, heavily fortified U.S. embassy in Baghdad — would be more than sufficient to sustain the diplomatic corps that will remain in Iraq after U.S. troops are withdrawn. In fact, however, that 1.5-square-mile walled complex is, according to the Huffington Post's Dan Froomkin, "turning out to be too small for the swelling retinue of gunmen, gardeners and other workers the State Department considers necessary to provide security and 'life support' for the sizable group of diplomats, military advisers and other executive branch officials who will be taking shelter there once the troops withdraw from the country."
Court Case Reveals Details of CIA Rendition Program
"Gulags, concentration camps, torture centers — indeed, wars of aggression and domination — are not simply the creation of a few leaders at the top," observes Chris Floyd. "They require the willing participation of multitudes of people, at every level."
U.S., Afghanistan Close to Deal Keeping U.S. Forces There Through 2024
Although the Obama administration has made much of the fact that U.S. forces are scheduled to leave Afghanistan by the end of 2014, it clearly has no intention of leaving that war-ravaged country to its own devices. In fact, plans are afoot to keep as many as 25,000 American troops in Afghanistan for at least a decade longer than the official deadline, according to the Daily Telegraph.
U.S. Special Forces Operating Secretly in 120 Countries
Most Americans are aware that U.S. forces are involved in missions in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya. Those who pay closer attention to the news may know that American troops are also active in Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia. But according to Nick Turse of TomDispatch.com, those six nations comprise only five percent of the total number of countries in which the Department of Defense is conducting operations. "A secret force within the U.S. military," says Turse, "is undertaking operations in a majority of the world's countries" — at a rate of 70 such operations per day.

Growing Upwards
1st Grade Research and Inquiry Resources
• Children will use the computer to do research and inquiry on how things grow.
• Children will learn more about the different parts of a tree that develop as it grows.
• Children played a game by matching pictures of parts of a tree, and completed a poem about trees using a word bank.
Suggested Activities
• Draw a tree on the chalkboard, and have children look at the completed picture of the tree on the Web site. Ask the children to consider what they know about the different parts of the tree, i.e. color, texture, what lives on or in the part of the tree. Have them say what they think out loud, and write a word or two related to their ideas on the chalkboard.
• Ask children what type of plant they like best and take a class vote to determine the overall favorite. Get seeds for this plant and begin to grow them in a pot placed somewhere in the classroom that gets the appropriate amount of sunlight. Have children name the plant and chart its growth throughout the rest of the year as they take care of it.

Lex Luthor achieved his greatest ploy; he has been elected as President of the United States. Change was the premise he ran on, change that people could believe in. This change was supposed to keep the people of the world safer and better off. Instead, it has become the median through which he pursues his anti-hero sentiments by stripping them slowly and steadily of their rights. Since the debut of the superheroes there has been a great deal of fear and mistrust surrounding them and the effects of their operations. They get blamed as the cause of the super villains' actions.
The hero community will be hit from all sides and every angle in the years of Luthor's presidency as he plays up to the populace's fear to keep himself in power and able to pass other legislation that furthers other goals that he has. On the national level he will push for the hero community to be restrained and held accountable for their actions and he will simultaneously work in the shadows to make a team of 'reformed' heroes to be his soldiers in enforcing his legislation. How it will play out remains to be seen, who he will go after first, or what he's willing to do to get his way.
What is known is that everyone has a target on their back and no one will be immune to coming events.

*insert typical "Oh, that song" post here.*Happy pre-E3 weekend everyone!
We're back with another month full of announcements, videos, and who knows what!
Will one of the authoring groups have something E3 'worthy' to announce today? I don't know so let's get this going and find out!
First up we're announcing a returning Rock Band artist from Rock Band 1!

So everyone, let's welcome back Death of the Cool, with their killer track "Everything I Hate About Myself"!
More to come throughout the day so stick around!

The Government of Sri Lanka wishes to refute certain assertions made by Amnesty International (AI) on 04 September 2008, in a statement to the Human Rights Council, as to the supposed "severe problems of protection and assistance for displaced persons triggered by the intensification of hostilities". The Government appreciates Amnesty's recognition that the situation of the civilians caught up in the conflict is exacerbated by the unwillingness of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam to allow these people to move to areas of relative safety and security. The denial of freedom of movement and the right to physical and human security is a serious violation of international humanitarian and human rights law and the Government calls upon AI and other concerned organizations to continue to pressurize the LTTE to comply with these fundamental norms.
Despite the ongoing conflict in the north of Sri Lanka waged by terrorist secessionist forces against a lawfully elected and properly constituted government, the Sri Lankan state continues to provide and facilitate humanitarian assistance to its citizens caught up in the conflict. The Government recognizes that much of the humanitarian assistance that is sent to areas not yet cleared of LTTE presence does not reach the civilian population, but is misused by the LTTE. Added to this is the fact that IDP numbers are sometimes artificially inflated by local officials due to pressure exercised by the LTTE so as to generate increased amounts of humanitarian assistance. Despite all this, the Government continues to deliver supplies and services for the stated numbers, whilst continuing with the provision of social services through government officials paid by and answerable to the government.
With regard to supplies, the Ministry of Nation Building has for instance supplied nearly 10,000 metric tonnes of mixed food items to the Wanni in the January to August period. This is indicative of the Government's commitment to ensure the welfare of Sri Lankan citizens wherever they are located. This commitment – proven by longstanding practice – is unfortunately not reflected in AI's statement and is a striking omission. Contrary to the statement regarding food security and the nutritional status of persons in the Wanni, the WFP has not only assisted the Government to transport food into the Wanni (7,000 MT) but has also procured and distributed 3,650 MT of rice within the District due to a surplus of rice production. The Ministry of Health has supplied over 330 million Rupees worth of medical supplies to the North (including Rs. 70 million to the Districts of Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu) in 2008. The Ministry of Resettlement and Disaster Relief Services has supplied Rs 35 million in emergency supplies to IDPs in these districts in response to requests from local administrators.
In its statement, AI refers to a number of 70,000 persons newly displaced in the Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu Districts since May this year. This figure is debatable since the movement of persons already displaced in Mannar District who were compelled to moved again into Kilinochchi have been recounted as "new" displacements. The Government, however, does not believe in hair-splitting over numbers in an emergency situation but, as stated above, supplies assistance based on figures received from its local administrators. These figures are jointly monitored, agreed upon and published by the ministries of Nation Building, Resettlement and Disaster Relief Services and UNHCR. The AI statement asserts that UNHCR has stopped releasing official figures due to the due to the security situation. This is factually incorrect as UNHCR has never released IDPs figures independently and is unable to do so as they are not mandated to collate IDP figures nor involved in the registration process of IDPs (unlike in the case of refugees). Figures released by the UNHCR are numbers collated by the respective GAs and, following a review of the figures by the Ministry of Resettlement and Disaster Relief Services together with the Ministry of Nation Building and UNHCR, the numbers are published on UNHCR's website. The current delay in releasing the July 2008 "new" IDP figures is a result of the Ministry of Nation Building awaiting clarifications from local administrators in Kilinochchi. The confusion in the Amnesty statement may be due to ignorance, but in future we hope that will be greater care, and checking at source.
The Minister of Disaster Management and Human Rights chairs the Consultative Committee on Humanitarian Assistance (CCHA) and the IDP Coordination Meetings which bring together all relevant state actors including Senior Advisor to the President, Hon Basil Rajapaksa and the Secretary, Ministry of Defence as well as Secretaries of key ministries such as Disaster Management and Human Rights, Nation Building, Health, Resettlement, Education and Foreign Affairs, along with the Commissioner General of Essential Services, the Peace Secretariat, Police and Armed Services as well as the District Secretaries (GAs) of Kilinochchi, Mullaitivu, Vavuniya, Mannar, Trincomalee and Batticaloa. These fora provide opportunities for collaboration and collective decision making between Government and its international partners who are also represented at these meetings. The UN Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator, heads of agencies from UNHCR, UNICEF, WHO, WFP, ILO and UNOCHA, the US Ambassador representing the Co-Chairs to the Peace Process, the Ambassadors of Japan, the Delegation of the European Union and France which currently holds the EU Presidency as well as the ICRC, ECHO and the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies represent Sri Lanka's partners in its humanitarian work.
Concerted action based on open dialogue and a common commitment to the safety and welfare of Sri Lankan civilians is facilitated through these mechanisms. Practical issues connected with fuel allocations for humanitarian actors, health supplies and services, food, non-food relief items as well as access issues are put forward and consulted upon, woth coordination of arrangements and finding of solutions to problems. On numerous occasions Sri Lanka's international partners have welcomed facilitation initiatives under the aegis of the CCHA. For example AI refers to long delays in security clearance for supplies to uncleared areas. The CCHA after discussion facilitated the sealing of WFP truck carrying essential supplies prior to departure which enabled smooth and expeditious passage through checkpoints. AI also talks of "changing and increasingly stringent" security clearance procedures which supposedly cause delays and confusion. Fora such as the CCHA exist for the clarification and communication of new procedures. Relevant actors are thereby fully informed. AI's statement which purports to be a serious commentary on the humanitarian situation in Sri Lanka omits mention of this important Government–led instrumentality. This reflects a one-sided approach in its analysis, which appears over-dependent on secondary sources and media reports inimical to the Government.
The AI statement refers to the Universal Periodic Review in May 2008 and the recommendations accepted as well as pledges and voluntary commitments made by Sri Lanka which contain inter alia several issues of direct relevance to IDPs. The assertion that the IDP situation was deteriorating is wrong, and the government position in May was quite accurate, inasmuch as the situation of the IDPs in the East had improved radically, with most having returned to their place of origin. However new operations have led to a fluid situation in the North, where the LTTE's intransigence places pressures on the humanitarian situation. However, the Government reiterates its commitments made at the Human Rights Council and is taking steps to implement those pledges. Efforts include confidence building and stabilization measures, communication and consultation with IDPs, information sharing and policy and legislative initiatives to secure, guarantee and advance the rights of IDPs in line with national and international obligations.
Reading AI's statement, it is clear that it does not appreciate the complexity of the IDP situation in the country. It fails to mention that there are three clearly disparate groups of IDPs; some displaced for well over a decade due to the conflict, i.e. those who were forcibly evicted from the North by the LTTE in the early 1990s; others have been displaced more recently as a consequence of natural disasters (the 2004 tsunami) and another group displaced after 2006 due to the resumption of hostilities when the LTTE launched massive attacks which had to be repulsed with measures taken to ensure that they could not be repeated. Re-displacement of some of these IDPs has further added to the complexity of the situation.
It should be noted that return or resettlement of the tsunami IDPs as well as the post 2006 IDPs in the East has been successfully conducted to a considerable extent. The old problem however, ignored by successive governments when reacting to LTTE activities was slow, is now being addressed systematically. So as to identify and implement durable solutions for protracted 'old' IDPs the Government of Sri Lanka is, in partnership with UNHCR, organising a National Consultation on this issue which will take place later this month. This Consultation has been organised as a follow-up to the visit to Sri Lanka by the Representative of the Secretary-General of the UN on the Human Rights of IDPs, Professor Walter Kälin in December 2007. Professor Kälin is supporting the government in this initiative by his presence and contribution to the National Consultation.
The successful resettlement of approximately 180,000 IDPs in the Eastern Province should also be noted, as it will provide a model to solve the current problems of IDPs in the North. UNHCR acknowledged that the returns were voluntary and in line with international standards. The Government is confident that the remaining 18,000 IDPs in the East will be resettled as soon as demining is completed.
In relation to the IDPs in the Wanni, the Ministry of Defence has recently announced a proposal on a humanitarian corridor for civilians which is seen as vital for their movement to safety and for humanitarian access and provision of essential items and services. This has been welcomed by the Consortium of Humanitarian Agencies as well as the UN which states that "the UN in Sri Lanka acknowledges the announcement by the Government of Sri Lanka of additional measures that are intended to facilitate the freedom of movement of civilians who have been affected by fighting in the Vanni."
In this connection, the Government is also supporting the development of a humanitarian hub in Vavuniya just south of the uncleared areas where humanitarian actors will be facilitated to store and distribute supplies. Civilians are being encouraged to move to these areas in order that they may access humanitarian assistance in greater safety and security.
Based on past experience and well founded information, the Government is aware of LTTE attempts to infiltrate their cadres into the ranks of IDPs. In keeping with the need to ensure the safety and security of the general populace, the security authorities are obliged to carefully check the IDPs to confirm the genuineness of their status as IDPs and in some instances restrict their free movement until cleared. Until proven otherwise these persons are all treated as IDPs and are, accordingly, provided with all necessary assistance. These procedures are carefully monitored and issues pertaining to their welfare are openly discussed at mechanisms such as the CCHA. The AI statement makes a reference to the Kalimoddai Welfare Centre as a "de facto detention centre". As noted, children go to school from there, and movement is permitted during the day though, for obvious security considerations, there are restrictions on staying away overnight. However the provocative language used by AI is misleading, reminiscent as it is of measures taken in other countries during the World War, and is unsuitable for an international organization that positions itself as the global human rights watchdog.
AI ultimately makes an attempt to create a nexus between the Sri Lankan conflict, the situation of IDPs and the hackneyed call for international monitors. The Government has made its position on international monitors abundantly clear on numerous occasions. While stating that the security situation makes it difficult for humanitarian actors to operate, AI at the same time calls for the deployment of monitors in a theatre of conflict. This is a bizarre proposal at best that once again highlights AI's complete lack of insight into ground realities. With regard to the specific needs of IDPs in the Wanni, the Government's efforts are complemented by seven specialized agencies of the UN with relevant expertise in the provision of food, shelter, health, water and sanitation as well as several international organizations recommended by the UN (numbering 14) and the ICRC whose operations in the area are facilitated by the Government to access the IDP population. These partners of the Government have the local knowledge, experience and expertise to assist the Government in its efforts to alleviate the situation and challenges faced by IDPs.
In light of the foregoing, the Government of Sri Lanka finds itself unable to accept AI's exaggerated statement due to the numerous deficiencies in fact and reasoning that characterizes yet another extreme intervention. The Government remains acutely aware of its obligations – to its own citizens and to the global community – and is not helped by statements that are not directed at constructively addressing the situation in Sri Lanka based on existing ground realities.

Seven Peaks Fun Center, an offshoot of a chain of water parks and family-entertainment centers, emulates its four sister locations with a jovial collision of bowling and restaurant eats. Although the Sandy location opened recently, its collection of recreational activities is evolving faster than that of an Olympic video gamer, with laser tag, indoor mini golf, and a full arcade currently in the works.
The silver screens at Showstar Cinemas 6 flicker to life with first-run Hollywood blockbusters, but that's not the only thing drawing in movie buffs to this locally owned and operated theater. Special events bring old classic favorites, such as The Little Rascals, back to the big screen, while 3-D movies allow viewers to imagine themselves in the middle of the latest heart-pumping action film. To help kid's feel extra special on their birthdays, Showstar Cinemas 6 also designs party packages that include putting the honoree's name on the marquee and welcoming up to 30 of their closest friends for a private screening of a kid-friendly flick or a slideshow of their least embarrassing baby pics.
Dan McManus discovered early on that his path through life wasn't going to be an earthbound one. It was 1977, Dan was in his teens, and he had just taken his first hang-gliding flight. Since then, he has dedicated his life to the sport, soaring from cliffsides in the US, New Zealand, Central America, Costa Rica, the European Alps, and the Pyrenees of Spain. At Point of the Mountain Flight Park–Southside, Dan and Hildegard leads passengers on tandem flights over the beauteous Utah landscape. Passengers enjoy a blend of relaxing views and exhilarating rides on each trip, along with instruction on how to steer the giant wing and use the CB radio to signal airborne truckers.
At Golden Tan, the staff offers a variety of services that helps guests bronze their bods, whiten their teeth, and slim down. UV tanning and spray tanning help customers achieve their desired levels of beachy bronze or pass for Midas descendants, and an array of moisturizing, antioxidant-packed lotions aims to intensify tans. Teeth-whitening sessions and Formostar infrared body wraps further help clients create their ideal looks at multiple area locations.
At Bad Lands Bow Hunters' indoor range, archers take their place in one of 12 lanes and send arrows flying at moving targets up to 40 yards away. Bowmen and women nock their arrows on the bowstring and point them downrange at targets shaped like deer and turkeys hiding among the trees. At one station, archers walk up several steps onto a wooden platform that mimics outdoor shots attempted from an elevated tree stand or a public pool's diving board.
Frolicking in a 500,000-gallon wave pool, plummeting from 100-foot free-fall slides, and drifting along a 1,200-foot lazy river with 5 mph currents are just a few of the diversions found within Seven Peaks' net of water parks. The aquatic havens spread across Utah, Missouri, and Indiana, luring families and adventurous kayakers with forests of twisting water slides such as the Provo location's Boomerang, which sends passengers ricocheting down three stories. Calmer fun awaits at child-friendly areas such as the Salt Lake location's Dinosaur Bay, where toddlers splash and ride small slides, and lazy rivers welcome both whippersnappers and adults hoping to relax.
In addition to its water parks, Seven Peaks manages a fleet of fun centers in Utah and Missouri. Visitors to the Lehi location enjoy rides on a pirate ship or in bumper boats, and guests at the Orem location can putt through a glowing, neon mini-golf jungle lit by black lights, or whack at the imagined faces of arch-nemeses in the batting cages.
Traditionally, if you wanted to find out the length of a giraffe's tongue, you'd have to hide in a tree with a ready hand and a yardstick. Utah's Hogle Zoo has streamlined the process, however: one of its animal encounters allows guests to feed the long-necked creatures alongside a keeper, who will happily tell you that their purple tongues stretch for 20 inches. The giraffes are just one of more than 800 animals inside the zoo grounds. Spanning 42 acres of verdant hillside property, the exhibits strive to showcase fauna in arenas that mimic their natural habitats.
The polar bear inside Rocky Shores—the zoo's largest exhibit to date—lumbers through a landscape inspired by North America's western coast, with a pool that affords guests underwater views of the bear's attempts to secure its swim cap. Snow leopards, Siberian lynxes, and amur tigers prowl the Himalayan-inspired scenery of the Asian Highlands. At Elephant Encounter's African Lodge, visitors can touch an elephant skull or a rhino horn before glimpsing the pachyderms in the flesh. Summer shows send eagles and hawks swooping overhead in the Wildlife Theatre. From loping wolves and toothy crocodiles to the sagely gorillas of the Great Apes house, the beasts all benefit from the staff's enrichment efforts, which encourage learning as well as instinctual behaviors.
As an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, Utah's Hogle Zoo demonstrates a commitment to wildlife conservation that extends beyond its gates. Many of its special events contribute funds to preservation programs. For example, the Orange Utahn Art show raises donations for endangered primates, selling original works by both local artists and the zoo's orangutans, who compose colorful paintings. Guests can even get a closer look at imperiled species by saddling up on top of one—the Conservation Carousel arrays 42 hand-carved sculptures of at-risk animals, such as the red panda, the giant panda, and the false panda, which is just a black poodle that rolled in some paint.
