Couldn't live without it!
By Judy the Quiet
from Rochester, MI
In an increasingly noisy world this product provides heavenly peace. Soothing white noise blocks everything - snoring, unwanted noise from TVs, stereos, neighbors, traffic. A perfect companion for blissful sleep.
I don't know how I ever slept without it
By Barbecue Sandwich

I don't know how I ever slept without it. I would have gladly paid $100 for my Sleep Sound; it's worth every penny!
Love it!

I use the product every night to drown out my husband's snoring and it has been very effective! We are both sleeping better.
Great product

I love this product....I bought 2 about 12 years ago and sleep with it on every night...very nice sound, puts me right to sleep. Just recently purchased another one because old one started making clicking noises. Just as happy with new one.

I have used this particular style of sound machine since my children arrived almost 40 years ago! More effective than the machines having rain, ocean sounds, etc. Effectively blocks out noises!

It's wonderful that the sound helps disguise the horrible ringing in my ears, which is quite noticeable when it is quiet.

Helps us sleep
By Eve

This is the second unit we've purchased. My son said he couldn't sleep without the white noise from his window AC (now that it's fall) so he asked for a "whoosher" like mine. It does a great job of masking the noises from cars and walkers outside our windows, and from noises inside the house. Very sturdy and very simple to use. If it seems too loud or too quiet, try moving it closer or farther from you, because this makes a difference. While it isn't heavy or huge, it takes up a lot of room in s suitcase, but I do take mine with me when I travel. I noticed that the new unit has a smaller range of frequencies than the older unit, but it still does the job.
Should have purchased two of these!
By Tutta

Love it!!! Just what I have been looking for...thanks!

Critics brought up the story of a Florida woman who was sentenced to 20 years in 2012 for firing a warning shot to scare off her abusive husband.
Marissa Alexander unsuccessfully tried to use Florida's controversial "stand your ground" law to derail the prosecution. Debate has swirled over the law, which allows those who believe they are in imminent danger to use deadly force to protect themselves.
But a jury convicted Alexander of aggravated assault after just 12 minutes of deliberation.
The case, which was prosecuted by the same state attorney who handled the Trayvon Martin case, gained the attention of civil rights leaders, who said the African-American woman was persecuted because of her race.
But amid the sorrow, messages of peace and hope emerged.
"Change doesn't roll in on wheels of inevitability but comes through continuous struggle. So we must straighten (our) ... backs & work 4 freedom," Cory Booker, mayor of Newark, New Jersey said, quoting Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Bigotry & hate won't just quietly disappear - nor be defeated by more hate. It'll take stubborn, relentless, unyielding love & service."

How easy it is for the state to be charitable with other people's money and to tell a business how it must be run. There's no nobility at helping some while dispossessing others. There are charities, good people in communities and church that are willing to help voluntarily. It's done all the time.
Just keep spending our money!
At least my rep Farrington didn't fall for the sympathy plea and agree to spend my money, good job!

I got an email this morning from a long-time user complaining about our recent price increase: "It's great that you've released Remote Access, but why does that justify a price increase?" As you may know, we recently increased our yearly subscription fee by $5, to $54.95. The simple fact is that the size of our average user's backup is growing by about 3% per month. That's 36% more data every year, and consequently we have to buy 36% more disk space and pay for 36% more bandwidth. Luckily the price of disk storage is also coming down, so we can keep our price increase to just 10% after 3 years. There's a new generation of less expensive 2TB drives coming out later this year that should allow us to hold this price for quite a long time — certainly several years. Meanwhile, we're still 10% less expensive on an annual basis than the companies that are hawking $4.95/mo ($59.40/yr).
— Dave CEO, Carbonite
Over the weekend we launched Remote Access — an application that lets you access and download your backed up files from any computer with a web browser. This is an application that I have wanted personally for a long time. Last year I was on a business trip to Hong Kong and discovered that a Powerpoint presentation I had put together for one of my meetings had not gotten transferred to my laptop. Luckily, I was able to use the alpha version of Remote Access to download the presentation from the backup of my office desktop computer. What a life-saver!
The new feature is accessible to all Carbonite users from our home page. Just click the new "Remote Access" tab in the upper right corner of the screen. Once you enter your email address and password, you can navigate through your backed up files and instantly download any of them.
I wanted to share some great press that Carbonite has gotten lately from the UK. First, Web User, a popular UK magazine, gave us the publication's top Gold Award and 5/5 stars. We beat out all the usual competitors for the Gold.
In addition to the Gold Award at Web User magazine, we also got kudos from The National Student Guide, Raising Kids, UK Family and Sixtyplusurfers. The staff at Sixtyplusurfers are big fans of Carbonite and have used the service themselves commenting: "I thoroughly advise everyone to use Carbonite. Both myself and Murray [publication editor] at Sixtyplusurfers subscribe to the service and would never be without it. Constantly saving all your work, data, pictures and all your important documents, the service is simple to use and unobtrusive."
We were also named by Tech Radar as one of the 15 best file synching apps on the planet at number seven.
It looks like yet another "storage in the cloud" service is shuttering — Yahoo Briefcase will be closed down at the end of March, including their paid service, according to an email from Yahoo. This announcement follows close on the heels of AOL's shutdown of xDrive.
Other similar services, even some that have gotten great reviews, appear to be on life support. My take: there is no business model here. While these services are cool, few people find them compelling enough to pay for them. And the advertising thing hasn't worked either: there was some thought that they could scan your backed up files and try to figure out what advertising to target you with. Not a very attractive idea to most folks.
So why are hundreds of thousands of people willing to pay for Carbonite? Simple — we solve a real problem. The cost and pain of having your hard drive crash and losing all your financial records, business documents, wedding photos, and so forth, is so high that people will gladly shell out $50 a year to have the problem go away. Storage in the cloud, like Yahoo Briefcase, is not really a backup system. Yes, if you're willing to work at it, you can store files on Yahoo Briefcase. But they are not encrypted, updates are not automatic, it doesn't just work continuously in the background, there is limited capacity so you're always running out of space, there is no client software to check the integrity of the backup, no visual representation of what is backed up, no way to manage your bandwidth so that the backup doesn't drag your computer to its knees, there is no warning to tell you that your backup failed or is out of date, there is no way to easily restore all your files, no help with migrating from XP to Vista, and on and on. Storage in the cloud is, to some extent, a solution looking for a problem. Look for other similar services to pack it in over the next year.
Here's some moderately big news in the online backup industry: HP has decided to discontinue their HP Upline service. HP got into this business by buying a company called Opelin. They spent about a year fixing the product up before launching it as HP Upline. I tried the service when it first came out and found it to be a little complicated for the average consumer. Only a few days later, they experienced an embarrassing outage where the whole service went down for several days. This was followed by a string of other software failures.
I'm not sure what HP was thinking when they decided to get into this business in the first place. They aren't in the antivirus business. They're not in the operating system or firewall business. What made them think that they could build and operate a world-class online backup service?
Everyone thinks that building an online backup service is easy. When I was raising money for Carbonite, one venture capitalist waved me off saying, "Any engineering team could design a product like that in a couple of weeks." When I was teaching at MIT seven or eight years ago, one of my students was fuming about Google's success, saying "Anyone can write a search engine. What's the big deal with these guys?" Maybe so, but writing a search engine that can process tens of thousands of searches per second against a database that is bigger than all the world's libraries combined is not so easy.
Same thing holds for online backup. We have 60 man years of development in the platform that stores your data. Data comes pouring into our data centers at a rate of about 100 million files every day, or 70,000 files every minute around the clock. The software and architecture that allows all that data to get onto our redundant storage arrays without losing even one byte is incredibly complicated. So while it's easy to back up one PC with one external hard drive, backing up many hundreds of thousands of PCs that are all simultaneously sending you data from every corner of the earth, is quite another matter.
I can understand why HP would want to put online backup on their PCs – when an HP PC fails and you lose all your wedding pictures, you are probably going to be mad at HP, not at the people who make the hard drive inside the PC. But I don't understand why HP wanted to own a service like this in the first place. They get their antivirus and other services from 3rd party vendors, and they should have done the same with online backup. I guess they learned it isn't as easy as it looks.
External hard drives definitely have their place for doing backups. But most people don't realize that inexpensive consumer-grade hard drives fail just as frequently as the hard drives built into their computers. And, if they are right next to your computer, they will typically share its fate in the event of theft, fire, power surges, etc. Now here's another thing to worry about: firmware bugs.
IDG news service reported last month that several models of Seagate's popular Barracuda and DiamondMax external hard drives have faulty firmware that is causing the hard drives to "freeze" under certain conditions. The article that I read refers to this condition as "bricked," a term I hadn't run across before but which is amusingly descriptive of what you can do with a frozen hard drive. Seagate is a great company, so I'm sure they'll fix this problem, but there's only so much you can do when there is a single point of failure.
As I've said in the past, any single hard drive is going to be much more vulnerable to data loss than the RAID arrays that Carbonite uses (which are 36,000,000 times more reliable than a single hard drive because of redundancy). So while external drives are a good and inexpensive way to store big files such as ripped movies or TV shows, I wouldn't consider them safe enough to store my irreplaceable photos or financial records.
Every so often I get a briefing from our operations staff on data center statistics. Last week, I learned one number that startled even me: as of Jan 20th, we had restored over 2 billion files for our customers. I assume that most of these files would have been lost if they had not had Carbonite. Also, Carbonite's restore process has been extremely reliable. You'd think with that many files being restored that there would be some that are lost or corrupt. While these kinds of problems occurred once in a while when we were young, it doesn't seem to happen anymore. The RAID disk arrays that we use to store your data are 36 million times more reliable than the hard drive in your computer. That's one reason that online backup is far more reliable than a cheap external hard drive.
But this reliability has not completely eliminated restore issues. Even though the Carbonite service works flawlessly, data restores are still an issue with Customer Support. There are basically three problems: First, some programs, notably Outlook and Quicken, don't automatically find the restored files. So it's not uncommon for us to get calls complaining that they did a restore and they didn't get their Outlook file back. It is in fact there on your computer, but you have to go into Outlook to connect to it.
The second problem is that Carbonite defaults to backing up your Documents and Settings folder, and all subfolders. If you stick files somewhere else, such as in your Programs folder, they won't get backed up unless you tell Carbonite to do so. This is true of any backup you do, whether online or using an external hard drive or flash drive. If you don't back up the file in the first place, you won't be able to restore it when your computer dies. That's why we put the little green dots on folders and files – it makes it easy to see what is backed up and what is not.
The third problem relates to restoring files that were backed up from an XP computer onto a new Vista computer. Vista and XP don't have the same folders. We came up with a very nice "wizard" that helps you decide how you want to migrate your old XP folders to your new Vista machine. If you have to do this kind of restore, use the wizard! Some people just ignore it and then their folders are all over the place and they can't find them. BTW, Carbonite is still the only backup service that has addressed this problem.
The Sunday New York Times had this little story regarding one of the passengers on the US Air flight that crashed into the Hudson River:
" When US Airways Flight 1549 went into the Hudson River last month, it gave William Wiley, an engineer at Software Associates, a new meaning for the term "computer crash." Mr. Wiley was on his way home to Johnson, Tenn., from the company's headquarters on Long Island. He had years of work on his laptop, carefully backed up on another laptop — but both were on the plane with him. Now the two laptops are among approximately 50,000 passenger items that a mortuary company has frozen, in refrigerated trucks, to preserve them until they can be dried, cleaned and returned to their owners."

Good luck getting the data back from a wet and frozen hard drive.
This particular situation is not likely to happen to anyone, but you can imagine innumerable similar circumstances. The more frequent event is that someone breaks into your house or car and steals your computer and the external backup drive sitting next to it. We hear stories like that all the time.
In any event, the US Air story, like the California wildfire stories last Fall, all mount up to a compelling reason to backup online where the data is safe from all these hazards.
I found this question on Twitter. Short answer: Carbonite checks this in the background using something called a checksum. As amazing as it sounds, about every 90 days Carbonite goes through every one of the roughly 25 billion files we have backed up and checks to make sure that the file in our backup still matches what's on your PC bit for bit.
If you are still feeling nervous, try this: Pick any backed up file on your PC (it will have a green dot on it if it's backed up with Carbonite). Delete it. Now open the Carbonite Backup Drive from the icon on your desktop. Find the file you just deleted – the status column will say "Right-click to restore latest backup copy (Original file deleted)." Right-click on the file, and select "Restore." In a few seconds, you'll see a Carbonite pop-up saying that the file has been restored. Go back to your C: drive and open the restored file. You'll see that it's perfect. I'm sure this is true of every file on you've backed up with Carbonite.
Our friend Leo Laporte finally got me going on Twitter (dfriend). We've had a company Twitter account (carbonitebackup) for a while. I can tell that I'm never going to be able to keep up with this – way too much information. But reading through recent posts is very informative, and you're welcome to follow me if you want occasional updates.

Katie Lopez is a reporter for Action 4 News.
About 4.2 million people across the nation could be eligible for $100 dollars up to $125,000 dollars—after their homes were foreclosed on in 2009 and 2010.
Janie Maldonado, director of the Advocacy Resource Center for Housing, told Action 4 News that the Federal Reserve and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency are regulators that oversee the mortgage industry.
She said they found there were discrepancies in paperwork filed by some of these lenders and now want to compensate those homeowners who were affected.
"It will mean that they will have some type of compensation," Maldonado explained. "It will never be enough for what they've gone through or what they've lost. They will be compensated some way or another."
It will take time for all of this to get fixed.
Maldonado said people will receive a postcard in the mail that will provide a number to call.
The outreach will start on March 31st.

The Ankenbauers were presented with a 16" x 20" aerial photograph of their farm. A photo of the farm was on display at the annual convention.
The display photograph of the Ankenbauer farm has been placed in the traveling Achievement Award Program exhibit. This exhibit will be displayed at the North Dakota State Fair, several agricultural shows, and many shopping centers throughout the next year. The photograph will then be placed in the Burke Soil Conservation District office's "Hall of Fame".
The North Dakota Soil Conservation Achievement Awards program is a statewide program in which each of the 56 SCDs recognize farmers and ranchers who have made an outstanding effort to conserve their valuable soil resource.
The Ankenbauers were selected as the 2013 Burke County Achievement Winner because of their conservation minded approach to farming and land management. They practice no-till farming techniques while seeding spring wheat, winter wheat, durum, barley, flax, canola, peas, corn, and sunflowers. Nearly four hundred acres of marginal saline, claypan, and wet cropland has been seeded to grass in order to protect the land from erosion and to control salinity. Cover crops have also been seeded in order to improve nutrient cycling and compaction, and to increase organic matter.
The Burke Soil Conservation District commends the Ankenbauers for their contribution to conservation in Burke County.
The North Dakota Soil Conservation Achievement Awards program is sponsored by the ND Newspaper Association, ND State Soil Conservation Committee, NDSU Extension Service, NRCS, FSA, the NDASCD and each soil conservation district.
The ND Soil Conservation Achievement Awards Program is the only program of its kind in the nation and has continued since 1948.
Outdoor Tales
This year I finally drew my muzzle loader buck tag and what better way to enjoy the opener but to head home to Bowbells for Thanksgiving then go hunting. Well that was a good plan when I thought it up.
We told Braden we were heading to the farm for Thanksgiving. He calls it Happy Thanksgiving.
At school before we left he told the class that he was thankful for Grandpa Dean's tractor. So with that how does the song go?
Over the river and through the woods to Grandmother's house we go. The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh. Well, it was more like, over The Turtle or Mouse (river that is) the Ford knows the way because it's the sleigh.
I must admit with the early ice forming and good fishing reports coming about, my desire to deer hunt was quickly disappearing.
As we were pulling into the farm I saw a large buck running but of course the season was not yet opened and "Happy Thanksgiving" dinner awaited.
After dinner my dad, Braden, and myself made our way to the pickup and started to go looking for buck signs and start to formulate a game plan for the hunt.
After a while, just taking a tour of the neighborhood, I wanted to punch a couple holes in the ice so we stopped at one of the fishing ponds so I could do that ice test. I found a solid 9-10 inches of ice and even dropped a line down for a few minutes to see if I could catch that first fish of the new ice season.
I did, two actually.
Friday, I got up go outside and take pictures of my dad and Braden when he was learning to drive (steer) the tractor he was thankful for. They then went sledding and who knows what else they did outside at the farm.
After making some calls to find bait, I was back with a plan. This time I had a nice day, an ice drill some new ice fishing toys and some time.
Before the fishing could commence I had a deer to hunt, well or not. I decided to just drive around the countryside and check out the old sites of my youth and if a deer would show up so be it.
I caught a lot of fish on Friday. The numbers were good but the quality was a little on the small side. No big deal, I was more interested in testing some new rods, jigs and my new Vexilar FLX-28. I went home happy with a solid afternoon on the ice.
Saturday, to me was the big day of the weekend.
I started the morning out pulling Braden around the farmyard on the sled. We went for a walk then made snow angels in the little bit of snow on the lawn.
While he was napping I took the wife out for a drive around the countryside, looking at the old farms and remembering different people who lived at the places. I also pointed out different spots where I have seen a big deer or harvested a deer over the years.
After nap, I dropped Lisa off and took Braden for some ice fishing. It was a nice day and I wanted to see if he would like the ice again and see what he thought of blue gills. He didn't have much interest in the actual fishing part of the deal but he reeled in a couple and had a great time just playing on the ice.
So over the Turtle and down the road to Grandma (and Grandpa's) farm we went. We had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed the outdoors the entire time.
And if anyone is still keeping score, the deer are still safe.
Until next time get outside and make some memories.

Here are a few of the drawings I did in those early morning hours.
The Train Station Coffee Lady |
In Munich we stayed at a youth hostel close to the train station. I came over to get my morning joe and sat watching this woman buzz around crazily getting coffee and other goodies for the train riders. She knew I was drawing her and would come over every once in a while to see what I was doing. She thought I made her look bustier than she was, but she said she didn't mind.
The Grand Canal – Venice, Italy |
We took the overnight train from Munich to Venice. When I awoke that first morning I went to find coffee and came across the grand canal and the famous commercial bridge that have shops all along it. I stood and sipped my coffee while I watched the shopkeepers start their day. Then I turned my attention to the still quiet canal for my drawing.
Bed and Breakfast, France |
In the south of France we rented a car so we could travel a bit off the beaten path. We stayed at this wonderful old chalet, up on the 3rd floor. It was gorgeous and very relaxing, just what we needed after almost a week of intense travel and sightseeing. I took the opportunity to get out early and sit in the open field next to our accommodations and draw the building.
Barcelona, Spain |
We finished our trip in Barcelona. We stayed in an apartment B & B owned by a retired professor who now was writing books on folk art in Catalonia. The place was filled to the ceiling with books and incredible objects. I took a walk early one morning and came across this beautiful scene of a woman doing tai chi while the monument in the corner appeared to be watching her every movement.

Will Shark Tank's Mark Cuban blow his chance at getting a deal with Breathometer?
In our exclusive look at Friday's episode (9/8c, ABC), a Silicon Valley entrepreneur presents his breathalyzer app that combines a device with your smartphone in order to read alcohol levels. Cuban makes an aggressive offer almost immediately, but when he doesn't let Lori Greiner in on the deal it seems the other sharks are ready to bite.
New season, new sexy stars. See our fall TV crushes!

Man, Shark Tank is so good — it stinks to see it leave for summer vacay. Fortunately, the ABC reality show about aspiring entrepreneurs will air two episodes back-to-back beginning at 8/7c on Friday, during which Mark Cuban will have a big confrontation with fellow Shark Kevin O'Leary.
The Sharks have never met an inventor like this. Phineas and Ferb's bumbling villain Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz will appear next month on the season finale of ABC's Shark Tank, offering the show's tycoons a chance to invest in his latest evil invention.Fans of the animated Disney Channel hit Phineas and Ferb know, of course, that Dr. Doofenshmirtz's nefarious "inator" creations, generally inspired by his desire to control the greater "tri-state area," usually wind up self-destructing.read more

A romantic mystery about a woman on the edge who takes an emotional journey back to the defining moment of her life.
A romantic mystery about a woman on the edge who takes an emotional journey back to the defining moment of her life. Sylvia (Charlize Theron) is a beautiful restaurant manager whose cool, professional demeanor masks the sexually charged storm within. When a stranger from Mexico confronts her with her mysterious past, Sylvia is launched on a journey through time that inextricably connects her to other characters, all of whom are grappling with their own romantic destinies.
Set in a postapocalyptic future, this end-of-days tale follows two survivors, a father and son, who take to the road in search of a better life.
In Road two ex-lovers set out on a road trip when Margaret (Catherine Kellner), a freelance photographer, gets her first big assignment: to survey environmental clean-up sites using the latest government-issued technology. Jay (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), her unemployed ex-boyfriend, comes along for the ride in a trip that increasingly goes awry. As they travel into a landscape filled with one abandoned environmental disaster after another, painful memories of their troubled relationship begin to emerge and the couple plunge into an emotional and physical limbo. Suddenly, back roads lead to nowhere, equipment fails, and Margaret and Jay inexplicably encounter the same foreboding characters over and over again, including a country music-loving-toxic-waste-hauling-big-rig driver (Peter Appel), and a doomed park ranger (James Urbaniak) tending Lake Baxter, "the most polluted lake in North America."

From the Panhandle's home for good news and great mornings, Chef Bud Andersen's recipe for cuban sandwiches.
Cuban Sandwich
4-6 lb Pork Butt or Shoulder
1 C McCormick Ancho Chile powder
1/3 C McCormick Smoked Paprika
3 Tblsp McCormick Dried Oregano
3 Tblsp McCormick ground coriander
3 Tblsp McCormick ground mustard
1 Tblsp McCormick ground cumin
½ Tblsp McCormick Cayenne pepper
1 Tblsp McCormick ground black pepper
1 Tblsp kosher salt
For the sandwich:
4 8 inch hoagie rolls or a French loaf cut into 8 inch rolls
2 lb pulled pork
2 Tblspn yellow mustard or Dijon mustard
4 C cole slaw (optional)
16 ea dill pickles
½ ea red onion thinly sliced
12 slices smoked ham, sliced
12 slices swiss cheese
3 oz butter
Preheat oven to 250 degrees
Mix all the dry spices into a spice blend. Rub the pork butt completely with the spice blend, on a grill over medium heat, sear the pork butt on all sides. Remove from the grill, and place in a deep pan, fill with water leaving about 2 inches of the butt exposed. Cover with film and foil, and slow cook for 3-5 hours until the butt is tender and pulls apart easily. Pull the butt apart shredding the product.
Open hoagie roll and spread mustard on the bottom of the roll. Layer on dill pickles covering the roll, next add sliced ham, topped with pulled pork, (add slaw as an option here if desired) thinly sliced red onions and topped with swiss cheese.
Butter both the outside and the bottom of the hoagie. Place bun on a grill, and press on it using a cast iron skillet or some sort of weight. Grill 2-3 minutes on each side, melting cheese and crisping sandwich.
Serve with fresh fried chips and a garlic dipping sauce.

My true passion is quilting, but sewing seems even more intimidating than crocheting, so that probably won't happen for awhile for me. I just love the geometric designs in different quilt patterns and the way the different colors you can choose works with them. I have so many in my head that I would love to make at some point.
I recently saw a blog post about wallpaper weaving, which gave me another quilt idea:
I cleaned up much of the mess and found that this place actually does have a floor!!!!
I need to start somewhat small, to have some completed things under my belt. There is a plethora of free patterns on the internet, and hubby talked me into buying the multipack of different sized hooks. I'm starting with a wreath

It would look interesting just to have something like that matted and framed, a geometric designs piece of artwork.

You could get wall paper odds and ends on clearance. I was thinking maybe wallpapering smooth thin wood slats that are flexible enough for weaving. Or painting the slats. You know, like things made out of popsicle sticks but on a grander scale. It would make a great wall sculpture either way. Ooh, I like this idea. You could add all kinds of objects including colored rope, bells and whistles unlimited. I better stop now. This could become obsessive.
Civet wrote:Like adhoc my repetitive strain injury (ie tendonitis) prevents me from doing things like knitting or crocheting. My friend tried to teach me how to knit once before I had problems with my wrist and I still had immense difficulty with it, though, so I think knitting is just not for me. That is ok though as I have plenty of other artistic outlets.

Journal of International Economic Law
ISSN 1369-3034, Online ISSN: 1464-3758
The Journal of International Economic Law is dedicated to encouraging thoughtful and scholarly attention to a very broad range of subjects that concern the relation of law to international economic activity, by providing the major English language medium for publication of high-quality manuscripts relevant to the endeavours of scholars, government officials, legal professionals and others. The emphasis will be on fundamental, long-term, systemic problems and possible solutions, in the light of empirical observations and experience, as well as theoretical and multi-disciplinary approaches. It is expected, therefore, that the journal's contents will potentially influence real events and provide important critiques of policies, negotiations, or court and tribunal cases. In this manner the journal should contribute modestly to promoting peace, world welfare and enhancement of the quality of life for all peoples.

Up until McKenzie was 6, Robinson hadn't been in a pool with her because she didn't feel comfortable in a bathing suit. "She started asking me, 'Mom, why are you not swimming with me?' "
And as parents slid down the giant slide at the carnival with their children, Robinson waited for her daughter at the bottom.
"Why won't you go down with me?" McKenzie would ask her mom.
"I felt like I was missing out," Robinson said. "I was there. I would take her to the events, but I couldn't participate. I'm at all the events, but I'm in none of the pictures."
Shake it
Thanks to Weight Watchers and Zumba DVDs, the weight started to fall off, Robinson said.
After losing 30 pounds and gaining confidence, she began taking Zumba classes at a gym. She started going a few times a week and loved it so much she continued to go every day. More than 150 pounds later, Robinson decided to open her own fitness studio in Greenville, South Carolina.
Within two months of opening Fitness Shakers in May 2011, Robinson said she quickly lost another 15 pounds -- bringing her total weight loss to 170 pounds in two years -- just from being the only instructor at the time.
"It's amazing to think I used to have these huge round chubby thick arms and now I've got this muscle definition," she said. "Pounds don't even bother me anymore. Now it's body fat percentage."
Her studio, as well as her story, now helps inspire others to be active and healthy, if the testimonials on her website are any indication: "I could never thank Dee Dee Robinson and her team enough for all they have done for me through Fitness Shakers," Jessie E. writes. "I immediately felt love, support, and acceptance walking into my first class."
"They trust me because they know where I've been," Robinson said of the members at her gym. "They know I can relate."
She now has a staff of 10 and a second location in Taylor, South Carolina, which opened in November 2011.
"I work out every day of my life," Robinson said, who also credits her fit physique to knowing what foods to eat. Salmon is one of her favorites because it's filling, yet low on the Weight Watchers' PointsPlus system.
"Do I have my one cheat day a week? Yeah," she said. "Is one cheeseburger going to make me gain weight? No."
Robinson has also noticed some other positive changes in her life since losing the weight. In addition to strengthening the bond she has with herself -- gaining confidence and happiness -- she said her relationship with her family has flourished.
"They say, 'We finally got out Dee back. Her personality is back. She's her bubbly normal self,' " Robinson said. "We're definitely closer."
She said she used to remove herself from situations, such as family cookouts, because she wasn't comfortable with her size, but now she's a lot more involved.
"I did it for me," Robinson said of losing the weight. "But maybe this whole weight loss process wasn't just for me. Never did I think I could inspire others. ... I get more gratitude from that than just knowing what I've done for myself."

I purchased this shoe as a Christmas present for my son, and he absolutely loves them. He is constantly saying these shoes are so comfortable. I love them for the price and the look. They remind me of Run DMC days..."You be Illin."

Rated 4 out of 5 Surprisingly Comfortable
Surprisingly Comfortable except for walking without an insole. The best way to improve comfort for those with wide or irregular widths to wear these shoes being slightly narrow, is to go with a size bigger and get 3/4 insoles. These shoe however are best worn during late Fall, Winter (Extended Autumn in Metro Atlanta) and early spring in the "deep south", unless there are low Pro Models available.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by damonl Best shoe I've ever had
I've been a Converse Chuck Taylor fan for 30 years. I got the Pro Model b/c they were on sale, and they have the same basic look as my beloved Chucks. After a week of wearing the Pro Models, I chucked my Chucks in the dustbin - and have been wearing these for everything - for squatting and deadlifting they are comparable in comfort and stability to much more expensive shoes, and for cardio sessions they're great cross trainers. So... this is the end of my love affair with Chuck's. It was fun while it lasted, but it's definitely over.
September 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Baguio Boy I used to envy folks wearing the shoes back in the 80's and wishing that I could someday have my own pair. After a few years, the Pro Model went off the shelves and into oblivion. Now, having them for the first time ever is like bringing back fun memories of my youth. The shoes totally outclass current models in style and comfort.

European leaders warned Friday that reports of widespread spying on world leaders by the U.S. National Security Agency have raised "deep concerns" among Europeans and could affect the cooperation needed for effective intelligence gathering.
"A lack of trust could prejudice the necessary cooperation in the field," the leaders said in a joint statement issued at the conclusion of a two-day European Union summit in Brussels, Belgium.
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy announced that Madrid has summoned U.S. Ambassador James Costos over the matter. The U.S. Embassy in Madrid declined to comment, saying that Rajoy's statement stands for itself.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the assertions that the U.S. National Security Agency spied on her and other world leaders had "severely shaken" relationships between Europe and the United States, and trust will have to be rebuilt.
"Obviously, words will not be sufficient," Merkel told reporters Thursday in Brussels. "True change is necessary."
Germany and France intend to seek talks with the United States "with the aim of finding before the end of the year an understanding on mutual relations in that field," the EU leaders' statement said. Other nations are welcome to join these talks, it noted.
French President Francois Hollande, speaking in Brussels, said the aim of the talks would be to establish a joint cooperation framework with the United States "so we put an end to these practices and ... these monitoring schemes."
Hollande said there is an "ongoing dialog" with the United States over its past actions, but the priority is establishing a "code of conduct" for the present and future.
This is essential because France and its European allies "cannot accept" the kind of monitoring which has gone on, whose purpose "is not just political -- it is mainly an economic issue," Hollande said.
"It is relevant to the markets, to the prices, to the mergers and acquisitions. This is where the monitoring may have the highest impact -- on jobs in particular," he said.
The main purpose of intelligence efforts is tackling terrorism and ensuring security, he said, but no one should have to fear their personal data being used.
Meanwhile, Merkel is under pressure to take a strong stance back home, where her conservative party is in negotiations with the Social Democratic Party, known as the SPD, to form a grand coalition government.
In remarks quoted Friday by the German newspaper Der Spiegel, SPD chief Sigmar Gabriel criticized the outgoing government's handling of spying allegations made this summer.
"Of course, it is outrageous that an American secret service would tap the chancellor's cell phone," Gabriel said. "I recall quite well, though, that some politicians and, by the way, the media, too, declared the NSA affair as over and done with. We cannot repeat that error."
Gabriel said the SPD would "vehemently push in the coalition talks for the effective protection, not only of the chancellor's privacy, but just as hard for that of 82 million other citizens in Germany.
"It's about more than just a bugging scandal with the chancellor. It's about freedom and civil rights in the digital age."
At the summit, EU leaders discussed data protection and privacy.
'Lack of trust'
Angela Merkel raised the surveillance issue in a phone call with U.S. President Barack Obama on Wednesday after the German government said it had information that the United States might have monitored her cell phone.
On Thursday, White House spokesman Jay Carney repeated what he had said Wednesday -- that Obama assured Merkel that the United States is not monitoring and will not monitor her communications. He did not say anything about possible past monitoring.
The German spying allegation came in the same week that the French daily newspaper Le Monde reported claims that the NSA intercepted more than 70 million phone calls in France over a 30-day period.
Der Spiegel reported in June that leaks from government contractor-turned-whistleblower Edward Snowden detailed how the agency bugged EU offices in Washington and New York, and conducted an "electronic eavesdropping operation" that tapped into an EU building in Brussels.
Merkel spoke with Obama by phone in July about allegations that the United States was conducting surveillance on its European allies.
The Guardian newspaper -- citing a document obtained from Snowden -- reported Thursday that the NSA monitored phone conversations of 35 world leaders. The confidential memo is from 2006, prior to Obama's election as president. None of the world leaders is identified.
Their phone numbers were among 200 handed over to the NSA by a U.S. official, the memo states. It says that the NSA encouraged "senior officials in its 'customer' departments, such as the White House, State and the Pentagon, to share their 'Rolodexes' so the agency can add the phone numbers of leading foreign politicians to their surveillance systems," even though tracking until then had yielded "little reportable intelligence," the Guardian reported.

-- diamond coming next Tuesday but this time it's with the house financial services committee -- won't be appearing alone.
The committee is also calling on regulators to testify about the -- whale losses trying Gasparino has the -- details on the hearing happens to be different.
From the just make one point about group yes this is this is it really be case -- the -- Rogers group.
Project -- was probably the most prominent Indian American businessman may be in the world this guy was you know had a McKinsey.
-- -- board member on many boards and I will tell you this and I talked to I've been talking about doing a book about -- trading took a senior law enforcement officials.
Particularly in the Justice Department they were up on the fence a bit about bringing case that it charges -- -- eight well they did not.
They had to do what they believe they believe he crossed the line clearly it's -- given Raj dis incentives but.
They felt that he was kind of duped into they didn't think he was a big I think they thought he was more trying to be friendly with with -- with broad -- Rodham and.
You know it was the sort of culpability factor that -- think was as high is right Rodham.
But still you know they had berg a lot lot lower volatility we will talk about this little bit later but let's get -- -- -- -- It is interest in that and -- and this and this is that the final chapters is Gary net houses is -- -- -- the next week's hearings -- always hesitant to predict.
You know politicians doing the right thing are being.
-- half on witnesses I can tell you this that you know that -- people -- house financial services committee obviously watched last week's hearings.
By the senate banking committee into the London will trade laws and the testimony Jamie Dimon.
They thought it was -- -- softball pitching.
I thought that was incredibly -- skeptical questioning.
And they thought it was kind of a lot fast.
OK I can tell not not Berkeley everywhere we went right after it and mean but they've been by and large Bob Barker right by Mark Russell up at Parker with -- -- and also more of by and large it was kind of.
It was Jamie giving you know a finance -- serving class it was actually funny to watch that was in there.
And aside from look Menendez and senator Menendez -- -- a little bit.
And the other guy you know -- trying to smack him and -- pretty much smack down it was you know can he tells how to make the world better place -- appears.
We suspect that it was actually value that got any case I don't tell it to the other guy I was proud of because I thought I think this is a tempest of the -- as he initially set I think it was -- a lot to lose money but that being said.
I could tell you that when I'm talking -- congressional sources close to the house financial serves committee.
They promise a much tougher grilling a dime they promise much more skeptical questions and they promise is not so much on you know white taking this risk.
But a lot of it will be about the notion of where with the regulators in all this they're gonna look at the fact and you'll diving -- something.
You what what -- what is most fascinating commentary -- does that.
I -- I I was blogging tweeting live tweeting blogging this thing and I think at one point that I needed like Red -- because about the falsely.
One of them the -- I did perk up what he said there were there off hundreds of regulators can't doubt in his office yet.
That does that -- really that it is it's huge I mean there's -- that and you know.
-- five regulatory bodies are I think.
ES EC the OCC the Fed.
The CFTC.
And probably missing and I'm pretty sure -- like five and you know you have you don't have one guy from each you have one guy or one -- and you know when he -- -- so you could see.
How it adds up to -- hundred.
And to camp out -- offices and with this here is gonna focus on how did.
100 people miss this when you were taking this risk some -- it's its outsize risk.
In that in the London office you worry you view conceded that -- had two different risk -- -- one for the London office one for every place else in the bank.
How did -- -- this and I think they're gonna they're gonna be like reeling Jamie on.
At least this is what I'm getting when history as a rough as a rough sort of you know in the early sort of edition will know what next week -- exactly what it has but the early edition is they're -- -- be -- him.
On what he did with regulating what they were doing.
Who was he meeting with give us some names and and -- obviously gonna provide -- whoever else and that's why everybody it was it was a -- was it was and publicly announce and you're right by right why didn't see it trading yeah -- Why did why did regulators learn about this from the newspapers I think that will be the key question and it was -- -- I I hope they go there because this is the important thing that was missing from the list dual -- it was just in house just just.
And every now and then she be saying something -- and we really -- current am I the only thing I learned from that -- Was -- two things I learned that.
But I think this was already reported the trade was two years old right really that was reported.
And how the other thing I learned is that they had to risk parameters but.
Was probably the clock back with him that was new and then -- the -- -- regulators.
-- OK and I think that's what you're gonna see next week at least that's early and we we look forward to your report but it it may change Monday.
-- there.
Thank you so much it's okay to presidents and Mitt Romney already spinning a possible failure in -- to their favor.
We'll sort this went out we think the police dogs a little later in the hour and up next.
China having a big impact on commodities you could be paying the cost British check -- with bill Plante at the CME the first.

Rated: - Awesome! Review by Kristina
My daughter has Sensory Integration Disorder and is quite picky with how things fit. We do not have a problem with this bracelet. The size is also perfect for her, with plenty of room to grow. She is able to put it on and undo the clasp herself. While on our trip, I had her wear this daily (24/7). She even wore it in the pool. Once we returned from our trip, she still wears it often since she likes the look of it and thinks it's cool to wear. I always have her wear it when we go to large amusement parks or places far away from home. She's recently told me she does not like the feeling of when it gets wet and has asked me to purchase the jelly kind instead. (Posted on 6/30/12) - Fits the tinest wrist Review by Ashley

- I wanted an ID bracelet for my son, who has autism and has limited language. When we go to the airport or somewhere crowded, I have him wear this bracelet and it has his diagnosis and contact numbers on the back of the metal plate. He has tried to take off the bracelet and can't. I also have left it on in the bath, and it doesn't get damaged or worn. It's solid construction, and I feel confident that it will remain on his wrist and also be easy to understand for anyone who finds him in case he gets separated from his family. The band material is a hard plastic-type fabric (very compressed fabric), so it doesn't wear and get threads hanging off of it. The clasp also is easy to apply, but tough for a child to take off.
