You're kidding,right? She darted on foot in front of traffic. READ THE ARTICLE! I'm in my 50's, but wait until you are in your 60's and then we'll see if you think you are "elderly"! I hope she recovers.

The coastal European influenced Peru has passed through various intellectual stages - from colonial Hispanic culture to European Romanticism after independence. The early 20th century brought "

Tags: Douglas Lima Eddie Wineland Walel Watson Chris Beal MMA
It's been a long time coming and we will finally see the final match up of the Bellator Season Eight Welterweight Tournament. This will be a rematch of last years tournament final, and we have Douglas Lima back just like we did last year. Douglas is kicking off the show and talking about how he has dealt with how long it has taken to finally get in the cage. Our next guest had his world rocked when news broke on May 21, that his title shot against current Interim UFC Bantamweight Champion Renan Barão was scrapped due to the champ being injured. Now Eddie Wineland is getting his Title Shot September 21, 2013 at UFC 165 and we have the #1 Contender on this weeks show. Hour two starts with a man who is on a two fight win streak and looking to make it three at Cage 23 on September 21. Walel "The Gazelle" Watson is back and ready to talk his match up against Tom Niinimaki. Walel is on a roll finishing both of his opponents within the first round in his last two fights, with the last fight lasting only 17 seconds. Our last guest earned his spot on The Ultimate Fighter 18 in the first episode and he did it in fashion. What else would you expect from "The Real Deal?" Chris Beal is back this week to talk the second episode of this season. We will talk the first fight in the house between the ladies and everything that made the cut on the first episode. The ben

Kicking off the show this week is a fighter who is looking to pick up his third win in a row and continue to improve his stock as one of the best young prospects in the game. Dhiego Lima is entering his XFC debut riding a 2 fight win streak and coming off an entertaining TKO win in his last fight. Our second guest is one that our listeners should be familiar with, as he was our inside man for season 14 of The Ultimate Fighter. Stephen "Bigfish" Bass is back and it's been a long time coming. Stephen is ready to get back in the cage as he is set to face Farkhad Sharipov at XFC 25. This year was the first year of Bellator testing the waters with their brand and reality TV combining to make "Fight Master." AJ will break down this upcoming weeks episode and all the things that you didn't see on TV. With the next episode of The Ultimate Fighter getting ready to debut it would only make sense that we start introducing you to some of the fighters. Our first gues

Lima is currently signed to fight Welterweight sensation; Ricky Rainey at XFC:25 (Lima has just a 1 fight contract)
Secondly but not least in any sense, the man behind the XFC brand; John Prisco (XFC El Presidante)
Prisco is a man on a mission and with the XFC being a quaint MMA secret being kept in the shadows has allowed him to build his brand of MMA the way he wanted to without being rushed like many others.
After the interviews ~ Jay and Jesse will breakdown some matches from the inaugural Fox Sports 1 / UFC Fight Night 26
And then the fellas will continue their Over / Under of the NFL, this time with the NFC.

St. Rose of Lima - patroness of Latin America
by Ave Maria Hour Radio Show in Religion
Tags: saint rose of lima patroness latin america Ave Maria Hour Radio Show Franciscan Friars of the Atonement
Rebroadcast of the long running radio program, "The Ave Maria Hour", a presentation of the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement. www.AtonementFriars.org
St. Rose of Lima is the patroness of Latin America and the Philippines. This South American Saint's real name was Isabel, but she was such a beautiful baby that she was called Rose, and that name remained. As she grew older, she became more and more beautiful, and one day, her mother put a wreath of flowers on her head to show off her loveliness to friends. But Rose had no desire to be admired, for her heart had been given to Jesus.
St. Rose worked hard to support her poor parents and she humbly obeyed them, except when they tried to get her to marry. That she would not do. Her love of Jesus was so great that when she talked about Him, her face glowed and her eyes sparkled.
Rose had many temptations from the devil, and there were also many times when she had to suffer a feeling of terrible loneliness and sadness, for God seemed far away. Yet she cheerfully offered all these troubles to Him. In fact, in her last long, painful sickness, this heroic young woman use to pray: "Lord, increase my sufferings, and with them increase Your love in my heart."

Toyota, Nissan to standardize electric car rechargers
Top Japanese carmakers Toyota and Nissan helped set up a group to standardize fast-charge stations for electric cars on Monday in a bid to promote the spread of the zero-emission vehicles.
The group, led by Japan's biggest utility, Tokyo Electric Power, Toyota Motor, Nissan Motor, Mitsubishi Motors, and Fuji Heavy Industries, will set a standard for Japan and later aim for an international standard.
Some 158 companies and government bodies are expected to join, including 20 non-Japanese firms such as PG&E, Enel, Endesa, and PSA Peugeot Citroen.
Electric vehicles are seen as one solution to meeting stricter … Read more

Wanna eat whole grains? Don't participate in blowing people up. It's really pretty simple.
It's a wonder the other inmates haven't snuffed this Poindexter yet….and where's his propellar cap anyway?
The taxpayers are on the hook to pay for prisoner medical care so feeding prisoners unhealthy food can result in greater overall higher costs.
I don't have a criminal record but I was imprisoned by DOJ without a charge I committed an offense. Thus, I personally experienced jail food in three different locations under contract with USMS (to hold prisoners defined as persons charged with a federal offense). Anyway, in one the food was actually pretty good, in the other two it was really terrible and I think unhealthy. The food budgets were probably the same but in the one the prisoners were actually cooking. The overall impression was that they were proud to be serving as good of food as they did with what they had to work with.
Personally, I think that detention facilities should try to teach inmates how to stay out of jail and that a part of that can be gardening and cooking.
More proof, if ever proof was needed that the death penalty should have been applied in Nichols case. If they had sentenced him to death like his colleague, McVeigh, this story wouldn't even have happened, much less been reported on the WSJ Law Blog.

Here is a little more information about the pension cutting going on.
I think when you ask someone to risk their life for you, they deserve a little extra compensation. They need to be able to trust that they and their family will be compensated for the risk.
Remember fire fighters and police don't just risk their lives for us, they do it in the worst conditions, with terrible hours and lots of strenuous labor (and for police, while being constantly questioned).
The worst, though, is how the right wing has gone after unions. Without unions fire fighters and police, and working people of all kinds would be far less safe, far less secure.
Anyone out there who thinks the firefighter, or anyone's, job is overpaid should apply for it.

A thronging crowd fills the Vaudeville Tent and spills all around it during a performance by Orgone on Friday, July 5. High Sierra Music Festival staffers confirmed a sold-out event with about 10,000 people attending the four-day festival. Photos by Laura Beaton |
"This is by far the best week of the year," said Manroop Sandhu, son of the Relay Station owners, after the High Sierra Music Festival was over.
The Relay Station, a gas station/convenience store on the corner of Pioneer and East Main Street, is the closest store to the fairgrounds.
According to Sandhu, sales were fantastic. He attributed the business' success to better preparation and lots of stock on hand to satisfy customer demands.
Sandhu said the store sold more than 500 bags of ice before 10 a.m. Saturday, July 6, and ran out of some brands of beer.
Quincy Thrift owner Traci Morrow echoed Sandhu's claim that the festival brought the best sales week of the year to her store.
Carey Candy Co. owner Amy Carey said sales were good for her too. Carey said she had some good conversations with out-of-towners, many of whom shopped at her store Wednesday, July 3, when they were temporarily housed in the field at the end of Railway Avenue.
Quincy Natural Foods' general manager, Lucinda Berdon, said the co-op's sales nearly doubled the week of the festival. She said Wednesday, July 3, was a record-breaking day for the co-op with about $77,000 in sales.
Restaurants in town also experienced high sales, as did hardware stores, Rite Aid and other businesses. Visitors to town were seen dining out, shopping for food and purchasing swimming pools, lawn chairs, beach umbrellas and more.
Sav-Mor Foods staffers said their sales were great, both during the festival and after, when locals ventured out onto the streets again.
Although some Quincy residents may head for the mountains or lakes during High Sierra, Quincy business owners, virtually across the board, reported high-volume sales.
Ice was one of the biggest sellers, as temperatures reached the triple digits July 4 and festivalgoers tried to keep their food and drinks cold.
Many stores in town ran out of ice and called for extra deliveries. Cashier Kisha McNutt of One Stop in East Quincy said sales at the combination convenience store and gas station were great.
She said One Stop ran out of ice but sold more of everything in the store, including gas and cigarettes.
High Sierra Music Festival reported a sold-out event, with about 9,000 tickets sold. Spokesperson Casey Lowdermilk reported there were around 8,000 campers.
Lowdermilk said more than 50 vendors sold their wares on site, and two semitrailer loads of ice were consumed during the four-day event.
Many performers at the festival praised Quincy for its natural beauty and great small-town atmosphere during their shows.
The Whiskey Sisters from Austin, Texas, said they were glad to get out of the heat wave back in their home state. They, like most performing artists, played several sets throughout the four-day festival.
A variety of venues allowed performers to reach audiences of thousands of listeners in the Grandstand and Big Meadow stages as well as more intimate crowds at the Vaudeville tent, Music Hall and the Funk'n Jamhouse.
A kids' area complete with arts and crafts activities, face painting, hair braiding and much more allowed parents the opportunity to spend time kid-free while the kids enjoyed romping with playmates.
In addition to nightly parades, the last day of the festival featured a kids' parade. Kids attired in costumes and paint paraded around the festival grounds with the festival's official parade performers, Third Planet Ceremonial Celebrations and friends.
High Sierra organizers are already planning next year's event, to be held at the fairgrounds July 3 – 6, 2014. Go to their website for highlights of the festival and a chance to win a pair of tickets for next year's festival at highsierramusic.com.

Aqua Grill
Online Reservations
As a regular for over a decade, Aqua Grill is one of my favorite restaurants of all time. I travel extensively and have tried more restaurants than I can remember but few impress me like Aqua. The staff and managers genuinely care about their customers' dining experience. If there is ever anything you don't like, just tell them and they'll make it right.. I have never left Aqua Grill feeling disappointed, but I do always leave with a leftover box because the portions are very generous. Their food is a value, the presentation fantastic and everything is fresh. The energy in there is friendly and welcoming. Upscale food in a non-pretentious environment is my favorite combination.
We just moved to the area and had many folks recommend Aqua Grill. The menu was pages of delicious choices. We loved the fried green tomato and oysters rockefeller apps. House salad and bread were included, but we upgraded to the Caesar for a minimal up charge. One of the best Caesar dressings I've tasted! I had a Triggerfish special, which was a large portion of melt in your mouth goodness, and my husband had the filet special which was very tender. The whole staff was warm and welcoming from the hostess to the manager that came by our table to check on us. We really liked their newly re-done interior with a soothing and very current color palette inside. This will definitely be a restaurant we frequent. I highly recommend Aqua Grill.
We stayed at the Marriott and walked over to Aqua Grill. We started with drinks in the bar, which was packed with regulars; always a good sign. We were then seated on the patio by the fresh herb gardens. The view of the lake and fountain was really nice. Our server, Scotty, took excellent care of us and anticipated our every need in a quiet, unassuming way. The staff all had smiles and a very positive attitude. We were very impressed when their manager came to our table and saw that she was personally checking on every table. I can see why they have been in business for 25 years. The decor was updated and ambiance very pleasant in the dining room. We can't wait to come back to Ponte Vedra so we can dine at Aqua Grill again.
Most impressive meal we had this week by far. Fish fresh and well prepared. Staff fun and knowledgeable. Can see why they are so busy.
This is a very popular restaurant located just a few hundred yards from the famous TPC Sawgrass golf course. Atmosphere is casual, relaxed, and unpretentious. Service is prompt and reliable. Seafood is the speciality but there are beef, pork and poultry entrees that are all well-executed. The wine list is more than adequate but not massive...the better to keep inventory (and prices) very reasonable. There are several original takes on various seafood items such as 'Crispy Red Snapper Bangkok', 'Shrimp Parmesan', and fresh catch offered in any of four different and unique styles. This is not a place that tries to impress with location, view or decor. It's all about the food and they do it very well. Locals love it. Tourists take note.
Aqua Grille is like the local "Cheers" where people remember you and your name. The food is outstanding with a large varied menu with a page of specials. The seafood from Mayport is fresh and I had the Jerusalem preparation for my snapper which was made with artichoke hearts, peppers, shallots, olives over pasta. This is one of the few restaurants where salad and hot bread is included. Service was prompt and courteous and we had a private booth. We celebrated my husband's birthday with our $25.00 coupon. If you register and provide e-mail address, you get a coupon on your birthday which is great. We definately will go back!
Always enjoy Aqua Grill. Never disappointed in quality of food or service.
The Aqua Grill came recommended by friends in the area. The waiter was excellant, so attentive to all our needs. The food and variety of menu choices was terrific.
Just moved here from Boston and have found my new favorite seafood restaurant, Aqua Grill. The staff really made us feel at home, like we had been going there for years. The fish was amazingly fresh and cooked perfectly. One person got a steak and said it was as good as any steak house steak. We loved the decor and ambiance, but even if we didn't, we would still go back because the food and staff were spot on. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Aqua grille has been remodeled on the inside and it looks great. Awesome seafood specials and the calamari and the fried green tomatoes are a must try! I always give the specials a long look..freshest seafood
This place is the real deal, recommended by friends who frequent the place. Now I see why the food and service both top notch. Very imaginative menu with unbelievable seafood special. I had the Curry Dusted Grouper and my friend had the Cantonese Whole-fish, both were well presented and flavors spot on. Service was friendly and outgoing made for a fun evening. Great job Aqua Grill
My husband and I have been to the Aqua Grill many times, and started to dine there even before we moved here. It was my brother Dave's second visit and my Dad's first. We enjoyed our evening very much. However, the Mahi Mahi & shrimp dish I had was just overwhelming. I would have preferred less fish (huge piece), more shrimp, and less potatoes. It is the least favorite thing I have ordered. Dave's seafood platter was not cooked the way he expected. My Dad loved his trout. Ashley was a very good waitress and explained the menu to us in detail. We will be back often! Thanks!
Was extremely pleased with both food and service at Aqua Grill. Big portions and fish very fresh according to our server Scott. Specials were well presented. There wine list is pretty cool, Ipad which give you a description of every wine they carry, never seen this at restaurant before. Tried a bottle of Meiomi Pinot Noir I don't think I would have tried if not for description on Ipad, more a cab drinker but it was superb.
Great food and service. Interesting menu with wonderful choices. Ambience nice for special occasions- Wonderful friendly staff and reasonably priced menu. Great seafood choices! Don't miss this one.
The whole experience was very impressive, from the friendly hostess, to bartender while waiting for our table, the server( Chris) and manager Carrie who came to table to check on us, he was very funny and made the experience that much better. Food was terrific, only complaint is they ran out of Triggerfish and had to choose different fish Cobia for my special. Pork Osso Buco also very good. Presentation was great and atmosphere for the entire restaurant was fun, everyone looked like they were having good time, even staff. Creme Brulee was to die for, Cool wine list which was an Ipad.
Excellent food and service. Fish extremely fresh get the whole fish special, my wife loved it and that's hard to do. Key Lime pie very good. Overall a very pleasant evening.
From start to finish Aqua Grill's staff, chefs and managers really know what they are doing. Food was excellent, I had the Pompano Special, WOW! What a combination of great flavors. Nice wine list, experienced wait staff, extensive wine list, makes for a great evening.
Went on Saturday had to wait a few minutes for our table but was offered a comp glass of wine while we wait thought that was nice touch. Amber was our server very knowledgeable with menu and great out going personality. Shared fried green tomatoes which were great. My wife order group and I got filet, both specials were terrific. Place hopping with big party outside but every thing was on time.
The restaurant offered a large menu, so our large party had plenty to choose from. The menu was dated with today's date, so you know the seafood was fresh. The entrees come with salad and the children loved the warm bread. We enjoyed the view of the water and the outdoor dining was hopping. Overall, the restaurants in Jacksonville were a bit disappointing, but this one and Marker 32 were the 2 spots we will be returning to next year! 5 Stars!!
Our server was awesome! All the staff seemed to help each other out, as they walked by table if a plate or glass was empty they would pick it up even if they weren't our "server". The menu was excellent and suggestions were helpful. We both ended up getting the bang bang trigger fish...it was listed in menu with a fish neither of us cared for and she recommended trigger and it was awesome! Paired with the crab salad or the spinach salad. We would definitely come back again. We did dash at the end of dinner instead of lingering because a table sat next to us with extremely strong perfume and just ruined the end of a nice meal...but I don't know how you could possible avoid that. Will definitely be back!
The atmosphere was great for conversations, nice and quiet. The food was delicious, presented beautifully and priced well. I plan on returning in the future.
The food and service was very good. Some of the rooms could use a little update in terms of decor. Overall, a very good choice for dinner.
They know what are doing that's for sure, Fresh fish and great preparation. A lot choices when you go there, menu was large and portions larger. Service was real friendly and knowledgeable. He sort of steered us thru it. Both our dishes were very good. For dessert creme brûlée is a must have
We went to Aqua Grill the night I proposed. We always return for special occasions and this was our 6th anniversary. We have NEVER been disappointed. Food is excellent and service is always outstanding. Always on my recommend list.
Aqua Grille has been one of our favorites for years with dependable great food and service. This time however the ahi tuna was just off, but it has always been fantastic dish. They couldn't change that dish, but they did automatically take it off the check without question.
Always a great spot . Service is wonderful, food is too. Portions on the large side though need to push the plate away .
Very impressive operation , place was hoping for a Thursday night. Had to wait 10 minutes for our reservation but they offered to buy us a drink while we waited. Amber was our server, very cute and great personality. Recommended the halibut special and Flounder Picata, both dishes we great, I preferred my wife dish though. Very cool wine list (ipad) and decor was warm and inviting.I like independent restaurant more then chains, they seem to care more and give you that little something extra. Everyone friendly and smiling. Manager cam over to check on us and then gave us recommendations on where to go over the next few days.We ate at fish camp night before and this place much much better.
Love Aqua Grill. Always a perfect lunch or dinner. Scott is an excellent server.
Wonderful dinner the other night. I believe our waiter's name was Scott, he was very helpful and accommodating.The whole fried fish was great and the short ribs were not only delicious but the presentation was superb. Love the lighting, more places need to be on board with that, I hate feeling, I'm in the dentist office with bright lighting.I also go there a lot for lunch too.
The overall experience was very good. We were greeted by a friendly hostess and taken to our table promptly. Our waitress was very friendly and new the menu. We ordered a bottle of wine which was moderately priced but waitress never filled our glasses up once after the initial pour. We both ordered fish dishes, mine came extremely overcooked so we complained to the waitress which we had to flag down. They offered to prepare again or an other dish. They prepared it again and it was fabulous. It was my birthday so they did bring out a dessert with a candle which was nice. We were charged for dessert though.
This is our second dinner here...and we still love it. Great fresh-fish-of-the-day selections & preparations. Dishes are creative with wonderful flavor combinations, or simply, freshly prepared --whatever you want at the time, they will fix it. The food is beautifully prepared, and the servings are bountiful -- you will have a take-home box! Our server was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. This is not a quick, in-and-out restaurant, though as accommodating as they are, it may be possible. We will return. Also, I recommend a reservation.
Wonderful experience dining outside --- very relaxing overlooking the water, and the server allowed enough time in between courses so we could enjoy them. Definitely try the Brie cheese for starters. Had the Thai Cod and it was excellent. One of the best dining experiences in reference to food and service and that I have had in a long time. I eat out a lot!
We loved the meal, great menu and service. The only drawback is that the photos make it seem to out-of-towners that the location is "waterfront." The view of A1A and the murky pond leave a little to be desired for those seeking ocean views. Regardless, the kale salad and ahi tuna were delicious. Nic our server took the service to a professionally personal level.
Whatever you order here, it's prepared very well and it's the freshest available. It's always A PLEASURE dining here! Great wines, too.
There were many great choices on the menu - it was difficult to choose! I had the seafood lasagna and could not eat it all even though it was delicious. Loved the wine flights - I chose the progressive flight. We would definitely go back.
Our group of 8 dined at Aqua Grill on 10/4/13. We were seated outside at a nice table as we had requested. Amber was the server assigned to our table. She was outstanding and is a great ambassador for the restaurant as she was enthusiastic, knowledgeable of the menu and friendly. The menu is fairly large but the dishes can be customized to one's likes and dislikes. From our drinks and appetizers, thru the main course and dessert, we enjoyed everything. We will definitely be back! Thanks Amber
An extra special compliment to the attentive wait staff. They know their menu and go out of their was to please.
Place was incredible both food and service top notch. Got to go for one of there specials alot of choices. Keisha was our server very funny and professional, made that more enjoyable. No hesitation going back!
Had been in for lunch and a drink at the bar a few times but this was the first time for dinner. Glad I made the reservation. Very quiet and great service.
This was a great dining experience. Service and food was wonderful. Atmosphere was pleasant.
Always pleased with choices. Last night clams casino were on menu and probably the best I have ever had. The triggerfish was served over a corn chowder base and herbs and toppings were superb. Portions are large, well prepared,,Waitress gave good explanation if dishes and was helpful in making choices. This place has become a regular visit for us.
We had a great dinner that was unhurried. The house special our waitress recommended was superb! Cocktails were a generous pour! Will look forward to our next visit!
Excellent food and service. We visit Jacksonville once a year and always have Aqua grill on our list of fine restaurants. Will return next year.
We just moved to town and had noticed driving by that the restaurant always seemed busy. So we went and where not disappointed. The people are friendly and very accommodating. Service was excellent! And informative. Very knowledgeable about every aspect of the food, wine etc. They even brought us a complimentary dessert (which was excellent!) with "Welcome" written on the plate. We will definately return!
I have eaten here several times and have yet to be disappointed with the food or the service! The wine selection is wonderful and complements the menu choices nicely.
The outdoor dining was very lively on the late November evening. We really enjoyed the large selection for seafood and the extraordinary preparations offered. This place will definitely be a repeat!
Aqua Grill is still one of Ponte Vedra Beach's best restaurant. The dinners are noteworthy not only for their appearance and taste but the great combination of flavors that the chef brings together in his nightly specials. A great local restaurant that visitors to the area can't wrong trying.
Our first night in Ponte Vedra Beach, we were a little late for our table as we had just driven up from Orlando, but do worth the wait, staying at the Marriott so only a short walk over the road, fantastic food, great service and lively atmosphere.
Great experience. We have eaten here several times and have never been disappointed
i DID A RESEVATION THROUGH OPEN TABLE, BUT THE RESTAURANT DID NOT HAVE IT, AND EVEN THOUGH A BUSY FRI NIGHT, THEY WERE GRACIOUSLY ABLE TO ACCOMODATE US!

What do Teachers Need to Know to Get Started? Before using the Internet in the classroom, take the time to acquire a working knowledge of the environment and to discover some of its pitfalls and pleasures on your own. You don't need to become a techie in order to use the Internet in the classroom, but the more you know about the Internet environment, the more creative you can be in discovering ways to integrate it into your instructional plans. The following very brief account of the Internet and the World Wide Web will help you understand the major historical landmarks of a very interesting technological and cultural phenomenon. Understanding basic Internet terminology, and how to get connected, navigate and search on the Web will get you going and broaden your comfort zone with the computer. |
What Exactly is the Internet?
The Internet is people-to-people communication on computers, a global broadcasting system and an information infrastructure. The Internet is the largest computer network system in the world. Through it thousands of networks connect computers to other computers by means of modems and phone lines or high speed wire connections. No one party owns the Internet. Business, government and universities administer and maintain the system and the protocols (languages/codes) needed. The Internet has many different components and uses, including e-mail, usenet (news groups), chat rooms, telnet, ftp (file transfer protocol) and the World Wide Web. Note that the Web is one part of the Internet. They are not one and the same, although advances in Web technology are making the differences less visible. |

How did the Internet
get Started?
In 1962, J.C.R. Licklider, a computer researcher at MIT, wrote a series of memos envisioning a Galactic Network - "a globally interconnected set of computers through which everyone could quickly access data and programs from any site."1 Licklider was acting head of the Defense Department's Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA). During the Cold War and the Defense Department wanted to create a communications network that could withstand heavy bombing and not be disabled. Meanwhile, the technology necessary for transmitting large amounts of information over such a network was studied by various government think tanks and researchers in universities here and abroad. In 1966, the product of this research began to come together as ARPANET (Advanced Research Project Agency's Network)- the beginnings of a "galactic network." In 1969, ARPANET, the first Internet linked together four geographically distant computers in the U. S. Eventually, every university with defense-related funding was added to ARPANET. In the early seventies, network users began developing applications (programs) such as e-mail software, and protocols (the programming "keys" that allow networked computers to communicate with each other) for the network. Besides serving as an emergency military communications system, the Internet quickly evolved into a powerful communications tool for scientists. Soon other scholars came online, including those in universities overseas. In the mid-eighties, the National Science Foundation developed a new network named NSFNET to handle the increase in traffic. However, soon, ARPANET and NSFNET could not handle the demand for service. Along with new protocols an improved, high-speed network was developed, which is the Internet as we know it today. It wasn't until the early 1990's, however, that companies began to offer access to home and local users. From it's humble beginnings as a Defense Department network with a handful of users, today the Internet is regularly used by 57 million people in 150 countries. |
Internet Society - |
How did the World Wide Web get Started?
The World Wide Web is a user-friendly lens through which to read documents on the Internet. Prior to the development of the Web, Internet users needed to know a complex computer language called UNIX to navigate through cyberspace. That all changed in the late 1980's when a physicist named Dr. Tim Berners-Lee developed HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) a computer language that enabled documents on the Internet to be linked together - and paved the way for the user-friendly, point and click environment of today's Web. In 1998 Berners-Lee received a MacArthur Genius Grant for his pioneering work. In 1992, Marc Andreesen took the next step in opening up the Internet for the general population. Andreesen developed the first Web browser (pre-Netscape and Explorer) - a computer program called the NCSA Mosaic that made it easier to view Web sites, including those with graphics, video, animation and sound. Andreesen went on to develop Netscape. As growing numbers of people began to visit Web sites, individuals, government, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions and businesses soon realized that the Internet was a significant new publishing and advertising medium and the explosion of Web site creation was underway. The White House (http://www. whitehouse.gov) went online in 1993, followed by the United Nations (http://www.un.org) in 1994 and the Vatican (http://www.vatican.va) in 1995. By 1995, shoppers had found a new landscape for pursuing their passion, at the thousands of online stores and catalogues that began proliferating on the Web. Pioneering commercial online services like Prodigy, Compuserv and America Online that previously offered subscribers access to pre-Web Internet services like e-mail, bulletin boards, chat rooms and news groups, now developed their own browsers and began offering access to the Web. From then on, Web usage skyrocketed and continues to do so today. These numbers illustrate the phenomenal growth of the World Wide Web since the first publicly accessible web site was put up in 1993. Connecting to the Internet To connect to the Internet you need a computer, a modem and a phone line. You also need to select an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or Commercial Online Service. ISPs are usually small to medium size local companies that provide no frills Internet access (although some are connected to particular organizations or communities and offer subscribers access to private bulletin boards, chat rooms and other related services). Commercial Online Services are national companies (such as America Online and CompuServe) that provide full service Internet access, as well as members-only features such as news, chat rooms, shopping, games, travel planning and a variety of other services. Commercial Online Services give you an all-in-one package including a Web browser and e-mail capability. If you subscribe to an ISP you'll need to install (or download) e-mail and Web browser software, like Eudora and Netscape. Navigating the World Wide Web There are three primary navigational tools on the Web: URLs URL stands for Uniform Resource
Locator. It is the address for a Web site on the Internet. URLs begin
with HTTP, which stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol. WWW is the name
of the server that hosts the Web site. Not all Web servers are called
www, so you will encounter URLs that begin with other names. For example,
the National Institute for Literacy (NIFL) URL is http://novel.nifl.gov.
The Domain Name comes next this is name that identifies the company
or organization that put up the Web site. Domain Names end with suffixes
that indicate whether the institution hosting the Web site is a commercial
organization (.com), an educational institution (.edu), a
government organization (.gov), a network service (.net), a
military organization (.mil) or another type of organization (.org).
To obtain a Domain Name for a Web site, you must register the name
with an organization called InterNIC and pay a small annual fee to keep
the name.
Using URLs If you have the URL for a site you wish to visit, simply type it into your browser's location bar and press the Enter key. In a few moments, the Web page you requested will be displayed on your screen. You can avoid having to remember and repeatedly re-type lengthy URLs by bookmarking them (or, if Internet Explorer is your browser, adding the URL to your favorites folder). Bookmarks or Favorites are pointers, saved on your computer's hard drive, to sites you want to remember or revisit. They are extremely helpful in the classroom. Instead of having students key in lengthy URLs - not a very worthwhile literacy lesson - students can pull down the Bookmark list for a particular lesson to easily link to the Web sites you selected. Using Hyperlinks Hyperlinks are the keystone of the Web. They are the links that connect Web pages to each other. Hyperlinks may take you to different parts of a single Web site or to entirely new sites. Web site designers provide hyperlinks to other sites to help you find more information on similar or related topics. Usually a link appears as text that is underlined, bolded, or in a different color than the rest of the text. Images, sound and video can also be hyperlinked. Sometimes identifying the links on a Web page is not that easy. Here's a tip: whenever you place your cursor on top of a hyperlinked word or image, the cursor will change from an arrow to a hand with a pointing finger. Clicking on this text or image will automatically take you to a new Web page, play a sound file or video, or take you to a new Web site. |
Internet 101 - What Is The Web? http://www2.famvid. com/ i101/web.html |
Using Search Engines Search engines are like indexes or catalogues to files on the Web. Search engines match key words that you provide with those in Web documents they have indexed. When you enter your information, the search engine provides you with a hyperlinked list of Web pages that most closely (or, occasionally, most obscurely) match what you are looking for. Some search engines also provide general categories to choose from (also called directories). These links lead you to more and more specific category lists. When you have drilled down to the appropriate category level for your topic, you view titles and descriptions of relevant Web sites and link to them. Every search engine has its own system for searching, organizing and displaying information. Therefore, it will save you a lot of time and frustration if you read a search engine's help files before you begin. There are many search engines, but a few of the most popular are Yahoo at http://www.yahoo.com,AltaVista at http://www.altavista.com , Infoseek at http://www.infoseek.com and Excite at http://www.excite.com. You can access search engines directly or by using the search button provided by your browser. To get a sense about how a search engine could help you in the classroom, take a look at the following two examples. Imagine that your ESL class is reading The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. Your learners are interested in learning more about the author and finding out about what else she has written. You go to a search engine and type in the words Sandra Cisneros author. In a few moments, the search engine displays a list of matches. You scroll down the list of titles and descriptions and see links to a short biography of the author, a bibliography of her work, an interview, and a multi-cultural teacher's guide. You preview the sites and decide which ones will be most valuable for your learners. You are then ready to prepare a lesson on Sandra Cisneros that will incorporate one or more of the Web sites that you found. Imagine, again, that you are teaching about the workings of the U.S. government in the Social Science section of a GED class and you need a copy of The Preamble of the United States Constitution. You decide to see if you can find it online. You go to Yahoo and see a list of categories including: Arts & Humanities, Business & Economy, and Government. Click on Government and a new list of categories is displayed. Click on Documents. Another page loads with a list that includes the headings Constitutions, Libraries and Treaties, Pacts and Agreements. Click on Constitutions, scroll through the list of countries and click on United States. Now you see a list of Web sites with titles such as The Constitution of the United States of America, or United States Constitution Search, or Our Constitution etc. You try one site, but find you must purchase a copy of the Constitution. The next site you select has the text of U.S. Constitution, in its entirety, for free. You print it out and make copies for your students. Since search engines are a necessary, but often confusing, Internet tool, it is a good idea to provide teachers and students with some guidance on using them. Here is a simple and flexible lesson you can try for teaching Internet searching basics. Once you understand how the lesson is structured, you can change the items teachers and learners search for to correspond with your curriculum or specific themes. For example, you can modify this lesson to focus on writers and artists, women's history or scientists and inventors. Please note that you should not include any items in the lesson that you have not first searched for and found on the Web yourself. Wild goose chases through cyberspace are very frustrating, especially for beginners.

text: Perfect fit and finish. Sprockets are super strong and light. Installation was simple and after removing a few links from the chain, I was out moto'n in no time. I went with the D.I.D ERT2 gold & black x-ring chain. After about 10 trips to the track and a few races, the sprockets showed very little wear. Then the chain started streching, badly. Every trip to the track required tightening the chain a full notch, which took its toll on the sprockets. The teeth are not worn down at all, but they are pulled forward from the extended chain links. The front sprocket does not appear to be as affected. Well, now I'm past the last notch on the swingarm and its time for a new set. I just ordered the same sprocket set and went with the D.I.D ERV3 chain. After I get some time on this set up I'll post a review. Hopefully the $85 chain upgrade will be worthwhile. If you're looking for that factory bike look and a really tough alum sprocket, this is the kit for you.

DAMMAM — Zamil Industrial Investment Company (Zamil Industrial), announced recently that the training programs for secondary school, college and university students that kicked off last June were divided into two categories — those designed for secondary school students and others intended for college and university students from various regions of the Kingdom.
The Director of Zamil Higher Institute for Industrial Training Mohamed Abdulla Sharif said the annual training program is part of the company's dedication to serving the community.
This year, the company provided on-the-job training opportunities for 40 university and technical college students in Dammam. The trainees worked in production, engineering, sales and marketing, information technology and finance departments at Zamil Steel and Zamil Air Conditioners. Students from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dammam University, King Abdulaziz University, Prince Mohamed Bin Fahd University in Al-Khobar, Al-Baha University, Dammam College of Technology and Technical Trainers College in Riyadh participated in the programs.
The training programs range in length from two months for the summer training students to seven months for the cooperative university students.
The Training Institute coordinated with various Zamil Industrial businesses to arrange appropriate project assignments in advance, and provided complete guidance and support for the trainees throughout their experiences.
The programs provided ample opportunities for vital skills improvement, including: communication skills, creative thinking and problem solving, planning, time management, analytical and team work.
Students were given opportunities to develop a positive work ethic, learn new skills in their specialized fields of study, and to interact with multinational professional employees of the company while gaining confidence in dealing with various work-related situations.
Each university student receives an SR2,000 per month stipend, while college students are given SR1,000 per month as an incentive to active participation in the training program.
The Institute also coordinated with a national institute to train 40 male and 20 female secondary school students during their summer holidays. The training program for these students consisted of an intensive English language communications skills module and an information technology module including Microsoft Office. — SG

The failure of the so-called Toomey-Manchin compromise amendment to Senate Bill 649 not only ended that bill's chances for passage but any chance for any other gun control measure to pass the 113th Congress.
A prominent military blogger and self-described constitutionalist is the focus of the latest outlandish efforts by local law-enforcement agencies to impose their own brand of gun control on citizenry.
Kansas Governor Sam Brownback signed a very watered-down state act aimed at protecting the right of citizens to keep and bear arms.
Demagogues offend us because they try to bypass our rational faculty with appeals to gut emotion. That pretty well sums up what gun controllers have done since the Newtown tragedy.
Second Amendment advocates charge that the efforts by law enforcement to confiscate guns from New York citizens is part of a larger federal gun control plot.
As the gun control debate surges forward, critics are posing concerns about new legislation that could establish a "gun registry."
Amid all the heated, emotional advocacy of gun control, have you ever heard even one person present convincing hard evidence that tighter gun control laws have in fact reduced murders?
Both houses of the Alaska state legislature have passed a measure protecting from federal infringement the right of citizens to keep and bear arms.
An "Honor Your Oath" rally in support of the "Stand Your Ground" law was held in Concord, New Hampshire last Saturday.
Senators with A ratings from the National Rifle Association often use them as cover as they vote against the Second Amendment. The vote to stop Senator Rand Paul's planned filibuster against the anti-gun S. 649 is a classic example.

"I hear ya and agree to some extent. I guess my question is can you give any concrete evidence where this "compassion" flowing from liberals has proven beneficial to society as a whole?"
Nope, I can't.
And that sums it all up. Liberals believe that being generous with other peoples' money works yet cannot show a single time it has done any good.
AS to the other side, time and time again liberty and capitalism has taken people from squalor to comfort anywhere it is really tried. As was stated by someone else on this thread, even China figured it out.
My question is why do liberal fascists always push to have the government to take more from the producers in the country to give to the slackers? It has never worked and by socialism's nature it never can.
All it truly does is cripple the human desire to achieve by teaching people not to try and we will coddle you until our system falls apart as it has everywhere else it has failed.
If you want to study a great example, look at the difference between North and South Korea's economies since the war ended.

Was Arafat Gay?
By James Kirchick
Once again, the rumor that Yasser Arafat was gay is making headlines. In July, Ahmad Jabril, the secretary-general of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, the Marxist Palestinian resistance movement based in Damascus, Syria, told Al-Manar television what had long been known in diplomatic circles: that Arafat died of AIDS. �'To be honest, the French gave us the medical report, that stated that the cause of Abu Ammar�s death was AIDS.' I am not saying this�they did,� Jabril quotes officials from Fatah, Arafat�s political fiefdom.
That Arafat died of AIDS does not necessarily mean that he was homosexual. The prevalence of AIDS among heterosexuals in Africa destroys the perception that AIDS is a �gay disease.� But considering the decades-long rumors that have been circulating about Arafat�s homosexuality, most notably publicized in the memoirs of Ion Mihai Pacpea (the former head of Romanian intelligence and the highest-ranking intelligence officer to have defected from the Soviet Union), that Arafat potentially died of AIDS is but more evidence for what many have long suspected about the late Palestinian nationalist leader�s sexuality.
Pacepa recounted a conversation with a Romanian general, Constantin Munteaunu, tasked with training Arafat. �I just called the microphone monitoring center to ask about the �Fedayee,�� explained Munteaunu. (Fedayee was Arafat's code name.) �After the meeting with the Comrade, he went directly to the guest house and had dinner. At this very moment, the �Fedayee� is in his bedroom making love to his bodyguard. The one I knew was his latest lover. He�s playing tiger again. The officer monitoring his microphones connected me live with the bedroom, and the squawling almost broke my eardrums. Arafat was roaring like a tiger, and his lover yelping like a hyena.�
If you can, put the image of a sexually aroused Yasser Arafat �roaring like a tiger� to rest. How ought those party to the Arab-Israeli conflict respond to this news?
An honest reckoning on behalf of the Palestinians would be a good start. That Israel somehow killed Arafat is a conspiracy theory that still gains a great deal of traction in Palestinian society. Never mind that throughout his later days Arafat had an immune system�suppressing blood disease, lost 1/3 of his weight, and was suffering from mental dysfunction, all tell-tale signs of AIDS. In the popular Palestinian narrative, the menacing Jews poisoned Arafat, just like they poison Palestinian drinking wells or use Muslim blood to bake their bread. The Palestinians' denial that Arafat might have been gay is indicative of a broader self-delusion on their part to deny uncomfortable realities, the most prominent of which is the fact that a sovereign Israel is not going away.
While Palestinians deny, some conservative, pro-Israel commentators have jumped upon the latest revelation to not-so-subtly impugn gays. They relish the fact that Arafat was not just a terrorist, but a homosexual terrorist. Mark Steyn wrote a mocking post titled �No Fatah, No Fems� (mocking gay personal ads that warn �No Fats, No Fems,� on the National Review blog. Writing on the American Thinker, a popular conservative blog, James Lewis wrote of Arafat�s �malevolent narcissism,� a common trope used to disparage gay men with AIDS, and declared that �Arafat�s attitudes about sex no doubt applied to his politics and warmaking as well,� quite the armchair psychoanalysis (does having a hedonistic sex life translate into support for terrorism?). But it�s not Arafat�s rumored homosexuality that made him a disreputable character, it�s that he was a murderous thug. Anyone can be gay. Just as there are gay heroes in history�Oscar Wilde, Alan Turing, maybe even Abraham Lincoln�there are gay villains too.
As for Arafat�s fellows in the Palestinian liberation movement, it makes perfect sense for his Arab enemies to publicize their contention that Abu Amar was a vulgar homosexual: Palestinian society�like Muslim society in general�is violently homophobic. The harassment and torture of homosexuals is a tried-and-true practice of the Palestinian Authority, and a burgeoning gay underground of refugee Palestinian homosexuals thrives in Tel Aviv, the gay capital of the Middle East. When Hamas gunmen raided Fatah offices in Gaza following their violent takeover of the territory in June, its operatives told Western media outlets that they had seized evidence of �corruption, collaboration with Israel, and a total lack of morals, including homosexual relations between officials.� Even though it is not Hamas indulging in the latest revelations about Arafat�s sexuality, Arafat�s supposed homosexuality and death from AIDS fits well with their narrative that the secular Fatah is little more than a gang of kleptocratic narcissists bent on sacrificing the future of the Palestinian people for their own self-enrichment. Homosexuality is just another indication of their corruption.
That this latest accusation comes from the PFLP�a secular, Marxist group�ought not come as a surprise either. The assumption that the left universally supports gay civil rights does not apply to doctrinaire Marxists, many of whom see homosexuality as a bourgeois practice standing in the way of the mighty class revolution.
If Arafat ever lifted a finger to stop the Palestinian Authority�s persecution of gays, then the rumors about his sexuality would not matter. But the fact that he was widely alleged to have had gay affairs while simultaneously looking askance at violently homophobic policies makes his sexuality relevant.
Arafat was and remains a hero to the Palestinians. This is regretful and indicative of the glaring problems in Palestinian society. A man whose life was defined by the murder of innocents and political rejection, both at the expense of his own people, is hardly the sort of figure who ought be the subject of nationalist hagiography. But such is the reality of Palestinian politics. At the very least, the Palestinians ought to have the honesty to accept that the father of their nationalist movement might have been gay. Once they do�and reflect that realization in their culture�perhaps Palestinian gays will no longer feel the need to seek refuge in the monstrous Zionist entity.

August is Psoriasis Awareness Month, meant to shed light on the skin condition that is said to affect 125 million people worldwide. For many sufferers of Psoriasis, and other similar diseases like Eczema or Seborrhea, there is a social stigma associated with their condition that may make them reluctant to discuss it. But staying silent about these common skin disorders could lead to more serious, even life-threatening conditions according to New York based Dermatologist Dr. Doris Day.
While the visible symptoms are typically red, irritated skin due to the rapid turnover of skin cells, Dr. Day warns that this may be an indicator of much more.
"People with psoriasis may have a higher risk of lymphoma," says Day, "Psoriasis is a pro-inflammatory condition, it could also affect the vessels and the heart and can lead to an increase risk of heart disease and heart attack."
In addition to these severe risks, many sufferers also tend to see an increased risk of diabetes, hypertension and
