The Nokia devices are a combination PCS GSM digital cell phone and personal digital assistant (PDA) that run on the GEOS 3.0 operating system. "The completion of the Breadbox NChat IRC client technology compliments the Nokia Communicator's fax, web browser, email and SMS messaging capabilities and adds a powerful new business tool to an already super product" stated Frank Fischer, Breadbox CEO and President. Breadbox NChat (under 23k without help file) enables users to have private, non-audible, documented conversations with one or several business associates, anywhere they can use their phone. In addition to including several standard IRC commands, NChat also provides a logging feature that documents any online meeting into a text file which can then be immediately distributed via email or fax directly from the Nokia Communicator. Users can be assured of complete privacy anywhere they use their Communicator, without ever speaking a word. Fischer noted "We've tested NChat compatibility with most other IRC desktop clients including Windows, OS/2, GEOS and DOS programs. Meet with other NChat users, desktop IRC users, or both." Single, multi and corporate licenses are available exclusively from Breadbox.

A group of pro-Kurdish politicians visits the jailed leader of the Kurdistan Working Party (PKK) in a crucial step to advance peace talks on ending a 28-year-old insurgency, which has killed more than 40,000 people to date.
The delegation to visit Abdullah Öcalan will consist of non-Kurdish leftist film-maker Sirri Sureyya Onder, Altan Tan, who has an Islamist background and Pervin Buldan, a long-time Kurdish female activist.
The PKK, which is considered a terrorist organization by Ankara, the United States and the European Union, is a guerrilla movement that has been fighting for the autonomy of Kurdistan and greater rights for Kurds in Turkey.
It is expected that Ocalan will call for a ceasefire via the delegation in exchange for reforms boosting the rights of Turkey's Kurdish minority.

Helping Children Cope With Crisis
The NEA School Crisis Guide has resources on preparing for, reacting to, and responding to a crisis. Additionally, we will make available resources from the National Association of School Psychologists on Talking to Children About Violence and Tips for Caregivers. We are also providing information on PTSD from the National Institute of Mental Health. |
Helping Children Cope With Crisis: Care for Caregivers
The Challenge of Caregiving
It almost goes without saying that parents, teachers, and other caregivers play a critical role in helping children cope with crises. The natural instinct is to put one's own needs aside and tend to children first. It is extremely important, however, for caregivers to monitor their own reactions and take care of their own needs. Failure to do so can result in burnout, which interferes with one's ability to provide crisis intervention assistance. This can be true in the aftermath of immediate crisis like a natural disaster or terrorist attack as well as during extended periods of stress and anxiety like the war in Iraq. Following are some suggestions that help caregivers maintain their own well-being even as they support the needs of children in their care.
Role of the Caregiver
Traditional crisis caregivers include emergency response professionals, mental health providers, medical professionals, victim assistance counselors, and faith leaders. They are trained to handle exposure to images of destruction and loss and to assist victims or survivors to cope with the impact. Teachers and administrators are key stabilizing elements in the lives of children, but most have had no formal training in mental health or crisis response and intervention. Educators who lack the requisite skills need to be careful not to go beyond their training because they run the risk of making a very difficult situation worse.
The Potential for Burnout
At the early stages of crisis response, caregivers may have abounding energy and motivation. Their cognitive functioning, training, and resilience make them important assets to the children under their care. However, as a crisis intervention continues, caregivers may find themselves experiencing physical or psychological "burnout." Images of violence, despair and hardship and/or continuous concern over possible danger can contribute to feeling professionally isolated and depressed, particularly if caregivers do not have the opportunity to process their reactions. Successes may be ambiguous or few and far between, and, in some cases lack of sleep and limited opportunities for healthy nourishment breakdown the capacity to cope effectively. Caregivers can begin to feel more like a victim than a helper. Additionally, caregivers who have their own history of prior psychological trauma, mental illness (including substance abuse), or who lack social and family resources will be more vulnerable to burnout.
Signs of the Burnout
Burnout develops gradually, but its warning signs are recognizable beforehand. These include:
- An inability to stop thinking about the crisis, crisis victims, and/or the crisis intervention.
- Loss of objectivity.
- An inability to make decisions, and/or express oneself either verbally or in writing.
- Personal identification with crisis victims and their families.
- Overwhelming/Chronic fatigue and/or sleep disturbances.
- Gastrointestinal problems, headaches, and other aches and pains.
- Eating problems including eating too much or loss of one's appetite.
- Suicidal thoughts and/or severe depression.
- Irritability leading to anger or rage.
- Intense cynicism and/or pessimism.
- Excessive worry about crisis victims and their families.
- Being upset or jealous when others are doing crisis interventions.
- A compulsion to be involved in every crisis intervention.
- Significant agitation and restlessness after conducting a crisis intervention.
- Alcohol and substance abuse.
- Withdrawal from contact with co-workers, friends, and/or family.
- Impulsive behaviors.
- Maintaining an unnecessary degree of contact/follow-up with crisis victims and their families.
- An inability to complete/return to normal job responsibilities.
- Attempts to work independently of the crisis intervention team.
Preventing Burnout
Whether it is in the aftermath of a serious crisis or during an extended period of high stress, unrelenting demand for support may result in burnout for even the most seasoned crisis caregivers, particularly if they themselves are feeling vulnerable due to the circumstances. The risk may be even higher for teachers and other caregivers who are not trained crisis responders. Consequently all caregivers need to consider the following personal and professional suggestions to prevent burnout:
- Know your limitations and with what you feel reasonably comfortable or uncomfortable handling.
- Recognize that your reactions are normal and occur frequently among many well-trained crisis professionals.
- To the extent possible, maintain normal daily routines (especially physical exercise activities, meal-time, and bed-time routines). Connect with trusted friends or family who can help take the edge off of the moment
- Giver yourself permission to do things that you find pleasurable (e.g., going shopping or out to dinner with friends).
- Avoid using alcohol and drugs to cope with the effects of being a caregiver during times of crisis.
- Ask for support from family and friends in terms of reducing pressures or demands during the crisis response.
- Be sure to maintain healthy eating habits and drink plenty of water.
- Take periodic rest breaks at least every couple of hours.
- As much as possible, try to get some restful sleep, preferably without the use of sleep aids or alcohol.
- Take time at the end of each day to process or debrief the events of the day with other caregivers or colleagues.
- Be kind and gentle on yourself and others, as you have all shared exposure to a life-changing event. Everyone needs time to process the impact of these events into their lives.

How do you define community? It seems to me the proverbial "village" it takes to raise each of us really isn't a place anymore. Unless, of course, you want the homogenized version of America (no matter where you go you don't know where you are because it all looks the same).
On a recent drive through large portions of small-town America, I thought about the village that's raising me, and concluded that I actually belong to many different communities of people, and when I put all of those together – my personal village emerged.
Each of my communities serves a different, but no less important, role in my life, and the people comprising my communities play an active and valuable part in my personal journey. Here is my list:
Social Media
My core community fascinates me a lot as I think about the people in that particular circle. They have migrated to the core from others of my communities as our relationships evolved until they have become an integral part of my life. I can't function without them. Isn't it amazing how important people are in your world? At least they are in mine. Have you ever wondered, "Why does the village even matter?" My friend Bea always said, "If God wanted us to figure it out alone, He would have put us on an island with a pad of paper and a pencil."
As I made my way back home on that recent drive, I figured that the Norman Rockwell versions of our towns and their occupants are merely a relic. But surviving is the need we each inherently possess to connect with others – to share our stories and our journeys – and along the way, to find and create new communities that make up the villages of today.

10 January 2012
I have been going to Alabama football games since 1983. I have been fortunate enough to only miss a half a dozen or so games (home and road) since 1998. I have now been present for Alabama winning three national championships. I feel confident in this next statement being more truth than hyperbole:
I have never seen a good football team be beaten so thoroughly and completely as Alabama whipped LSU on Monday night.
If someone didn't watch the game and only looked at the 21-0 score, they would obviously think that the Tide handled LSU pretty well. They would also have no idea how little of a chance that LSU actually had in the game.
When the Tigers beat Alabama on November 5 there were a lot of people who thought that the Tide outplayed LSU. Bama moved the ball well all night and gave its offense ample opportunity to score points. Four missed field goals, and interception at midfield, and an interception at the one yard line helped keep the score close. That interception at midfield was returned into the red zone, and a single blown coverage gave LSU a 34 yard gain that put them in position for their other field goal in regulation.
On Monday night the Tide moved the ball well again. That was the only similarity.
On 12 offensive possessions, Bama managed to score six times. One of the six in which it did not was the final possession of the game, where Bama had no intentions of scoring. So that means that Bama scored on six of its 11 regular possessions. Out of those eleven, Bama failed to pick up a first down only twice - the third quarter possession that followed CJ Mosley's interception (missed FG), and a fourth quarter possession where Bama was simply stonewalled (punt).
As a matter of reference, LSU had 11 offensive possessions. The Tigers managed a first down on only four of them. Bama forced LSU into six "3 and out" possessions, and Mosley's interception happened on the second play of a drive. LSU had one drive where they managed more than one first down (Alabama had seven). LSU's eleven drives consisted of the following number of offensive plays: 3, 3, 5, 3, 3, 5, 2, 3, 6, 8, 3. They simply never had any opportunity to establish an offensive rhythm.
LSU crossed midfield just one time, a fourth quarter possession that saw them reach the Alabama 32 yard line. Bama stuffed Michael Ford on the option for a three yard loss, which was followed by two incomplete passes. On fourth down Dont'a Hightower stripped Jefferson in the backfield and Nick Gentry recovered the fumble at midfield. As if to punish the Tigers for their audacity at entering Bama territory, Bama scored the game's only touchdown four plays later.
The play that got LSU across midfield was an 18 yard run by Jordan Jefferson. It was one of only two plays of greater than 10 yards for LSU the entire night (Odell Beckham's 19 yard reception was the other). Bama had 11 plays of a greater than 10 yards. The Tide had at least one on 9 of their 12 offensive possessions.
LSU averaged 375.31 yards per game coming into the night. The Tigers managed 92 yards against Bama on Monday. Let that sink in for a moment, folks. In the biggest game of the season, on the biggest stage, the Alabama defense held LSU to 283.31 yards less than their average - just 24% of their normal output.
It wasn't just the Bama defense that was responsible for this ass whipping.
The LSU defense averaged allowing 252.08 yards per game coming in. Bama's offense put 384 yards on them. The Tiger's allowed just 10.54 points per game. Bama doubled that at 21.
How about the special teams?
While LSU had more kick off return yards than Bama, 125-32, LSU averaged just 20.8 yards per return - 6 yards less than Morris Claiborne's season average. Bama's 32 yards came on just the one return - the only time LSU had to kickoff the entire game.
Heisman finalist Tyrann Mathieu had just one punt return for one yard. It was probably the hardest one yard of the night, as he was immediately driven twenty yards backwards by a swarming Bama coverage team led by Dre Kirkpatrick. While that might have been sweet revenge against Mathieu for the assault he committed on Kirkpatrick in the November 5 game, the fact that Bama repeatedly completed passes over his head was probably a little sweeter.
So while LSU had just the one return yard (Cody Mandell's other two punts went out of bounds), Bama averaged 22.3 on its three returns - including the game's first big play, a Marquis Maze 50 yarder that helped put Bama on the board.
Cody Mandell has his best game of the season, averaging 44.3 yards per and not allowing Mathieu any opportunity to generate the momentum swinging play that he was able to pull of in LSU's final two games. While Brad Wing average 45.7 yards per punt, that difference of just 1.4 yards has to be considering a win for the Tide. Especially so when you consider that the only big play in the return game came off of a Wing punt.
Add to all of that the fact that Jeremy Shelley twice established a new career long in field goals (41, 44) and obliterated the previous BCS record of two makes in one game. His five made field goals will likely be a record that stands for quite some time.
So, essentially, Bama dominated LSU on the offensive side of the ball. Bama won the special teams battle. And there just simply isn't a word for what Bama did to the Tigers defensively. It might be the single greatest defensive performance in a championship game.
Bama's 14th national championship took a bit of a different route than the 13 that preceded it. But at the end of the day, the Tide's complete domination of all facets of the game resulted in the same conclusion - Alabama is once again atop the college football world.

Who is the favorite to win the team title? Nutty thinks Neb has the edge, but I think it will come down to IU and Wisco. Neb is absolutely loaded in the field events, but only has a little bit in the sprints on the track. IU has a stud sprinter in addition to their distance guys and some nice field events. Wisco is loaded from 800 up on the track. It will be interesting to see what they do with Cato. I can't see him doubling in another event besides the decathlon. I think he could score more than 10 in his three best events if he's entered in those only. It's said seemingly every Big 10 meet that the distance crew will score 60+ points, but this time they really need it if they want to have a chance. They also need to squeeze out some unexpected points in the 200/400. OSU is another team that could sneak up there. After that it's a race for 5th. |
------------------------ |

I think the Big Ten race at the top will be extremely competitive between Wisconsin and Nebraska. Minnesota Indiana and Ohio state can all cause problems if they have great meets. Here is my "unscientific" evaluations. Wisconsin Nebraska Minnesota Indiana Ohio State Iowa Penn state Illinois Michigan State Michigan Purdue This is assuming that Wisconsin utilizes Cato in more than just the decathlon. Should prove to be a very competitive meet at the top. |

Purdue should win pretty handily |

The youtube comment says it all.
Let me spell it out plain for you
Angry people complain about the things I do
I'm not changing direction, I'm stepping my game up
Maintaining my name, the same way I came up.
Truth is, I thought it mattered
I thought that music mattered.
But does it? Bollocks!
Not compared to how people matter.
[DRD]TylerG: Imma need FAT ganks bot bro....this kid ditched me
Random Pub:.....you need medical attention bro..
[DRD]TylerG: I don't need bad attention.....from bads.....
even if dw did try to ulti ws ....
blink ~ 0,05 sek + 1 sek casting time for his ulti
noting special
You think his ult has a 1 second cast time? Do you live in the same world we do?
The entire effect including backswing, action point and followthrough is probably a half second. You're stunned much sooner than that.
It is seriously lulz that he ulted a creep anyways but he did hit void talisman in time and it was pretty awesome reaction time - even though he was likely expecting it. More importantly: if he had targeted ws it would have gone through because void now simply negates the damage as opposed to preventing physical attacks.
That Creep got it's head bashed in, gj.
DW ulted the creep before WS even used void even though WS saw him on mini map and knew DW would blink WS was still too slow to react. Uber fail.

moon u embarrased bro?
By Avunaos. Highly recommended artist.
My Valkyrie guide: http://www.heroesofnewerth.com/heroe...ew.php?gid=216
Maybe DW clicked on WS but he had Void Talisman activated so it took the closest valid target (if the click was in between the 2 it may happen I think)
So gj but no point making a video of that

Pierce eventually left the game with a concussion, as did wide receiver Torrey Smith, who hit his head after attempting to make a leaping catch near the sideline in the third quarter.
Denver pulled away with two third-quarter touchdowns. Manning threw a 51-yard scoring pass to Eric Decker, and after the Ravens went three-and-out, Knowshon Moreno ended a 39-yard drive with a 6-yard run to make it 31-3.
Decker caught eight passes for 133 yards and Moreno finished with 118 yards rushing on 22 carries.
NOTES: Rice passed 1,000 yards rushing for a fourth straight season. ... Terrell Suggs returned for Baltimore after missing one game with a torn biceps and made one tackle. ... Hester's score was the second rushing touchdown of his career and the first since his rookie season in 2008. ... Pitta had seven catches for 125 yards.

Regional Program Director, Middle East and North Africa Department Solidarity Center
Regional Program Director, Middle East and North Africa Department Solidarity Center
The Solidarity Center, founded in 1997 by the AFL-CIO to tackle the enormous challenges workers face in the global economy, now works with union and community group partners in more than 60 countries through a network of 26 field offices. This not-for-profit organization offers education, training, research, legal support, and organizing assistance to help build strong and effective trade unions and other workers' organizations and more just and equitable societies. Its programs promote democratic rights and respect for workers; raise public awareness about abuses of the world's most vulnerable workers; and, above all, help the world's workers secure a voice in their societies and the global economy.
The Center seeks a regional program director to lead the work of advancing the Center's mission in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and to participate in shaping Center strategy for the region and globally. The regional program director reports directly to the Center's executive director, serves on the management team, and works in close partnership with AFL-CIO international staff. The Washington, D.C.-based Center has a staff of 245 and an annual budget of $30 million. The position requires residency in the D.C. area and extensive to travel to the region.
• With other Center senior management, develop a strategic vision and program priorities for work in the region; revisit the vision and priorities as needed to reflect changing regional and global realities.
• Coordinate the design and implementation of programs in the region.
• Lead and manage the department's staff in D.C. and the region to ensure that the work of the field offices is supported strategically, programmatically, politically, financially, and diplomatically, including overseeing Center resources in the region and supervising country program directors. As needed, advise and provide support to resolve issues in the field.
• Develop a comprehensive strategy for funding work in the region; aggressively pursue new funding opportunities while maintaining relationships with current donors. Assist in creating materials to support fundraising efforts.
• Serve as the voice of the region, its labor issues, and their global importance, within the Center, the AFL-CIO, and the U.S. labor movement broadly as well as to U.S. missions in the region, other NGOs, and the academic community. Build bridges to and coalitions and collaborative efforts with others in the region working to advance workers' rights.
• Assure the high quality and effectiveness of the Center's work in the region through evaluation both of program work and employee performance.
• A minimum of 10 years' experience to include knowledge of and work in the region and experience in the U.S. and/or international labor movement and/or the human rights movement. Understanding of the region's political economy and its place in the global economy is critical as is an understanding of the U.S. labor movement.
• Fluency in Arabic is required as is the ability to communicate ideas and information effectively to U.S. and international audiences. French language proficiency a plus.
• Proven leadership, strategic, analytic, and management abilities; a proven ability to work successfully in complex political environments and collaboratively as part of a dynamic team.
• Proven success in the U.S. government funding world; success with non-government donors would be welcome.
• B.A. degree in a relevant field; a graduate degree is highly preferred.
Personal Qualities:
The successful candidate will bring a sense of passion about the region and its politics, a strong social justice orientation, and a clear understanding of gender equity as a critical component of workers' rights. He or she will have good judgment in U.S. and international political environments and the confidence, tenacity, energy, patience, and drive to work with others in this multilayered international organization to advance the cause of workers around the world.
The duration of this position, as with all positions at the Solidarity Center, is contingent upon continued grant funding.

Positive Grid JamUp Plug and JamUp Pro App JamUp Plug is compatible with: • iPhone 4S, 4, 3GS, and 3
• iPod Touch 4th gen.
• iPad and iPad2JamUp Pro works on iOS 4. 3 or later
The amp and effects models on offer in JamUp Pro's smartly laid-out interface are well voiced, with surprisingly full dynamic ranges, consistent output levels across a range of gain levels, and a playability that you have to experience to appreciate.
Even just dialing through the presets— "Awesome Clean," "UK 30 Sparkle," "800 Lead," and others—I found plenty of useful, musical tones. And the smart-gate settings mean these sounds are much quieter than virtually any other amp app. Kudos are also due for the excellent reverb sounds, from digital 'verbs to a very convincing vintage spring—it's hard enough to find great spring reverbs on a full-blown rig, but a tiny iPhone? That's remarkable.
To edit presets, you touch back to theAmp/FX menu, and the controls for eachgiven amp and effect appear across thebottom of the screen. JamUp Pro displayshorizontally, so you tilt the phone sideways,which I'd argue means a broader, easier pagefor edit adjustments, though some may pre-fer the vertical layout. A quick double-tapon anything in your signal chain—amps,effects, etc.—produces a menu of optionsfor each. There are six amps and quite a fewpedals in the app when you first downloadit, but I'd recommend stocking up on themany effects and amps Positive Grid offersas in-app purchases. From lively, spongytakes on Bogner, Orange, Hiwatt, Fender,Boogie, and Vox, there's a surplus of ampriches here. Effects? You get rich, thickmodulations, believable tape-echo withadjustable heads, spacious digital reverbs—and they're all very easy to edit. The NoiseGate pedal really cleans things up beauti-fully when you've gone a little crazy on thedistortions.
Although it's certainly a reasonably priced interface, it's a bit too flimsy to do justice to the JamUp Pro app, and that's too bad. Because it connects to your iOS device's headphone jack instead of the 30-pin connector, it just can't squeeze through as many dynamics. And despite its line-level output, the sounds clearly suffer from crosstalk and bad conversion. You're far better off trying JamUp Pro through an interface with better input capabilities and third-party app compatibility. Such a combination will make JamUp Pro—possibly the deepest and finest amp/effects app on the market—sound as good as it's capable of sounding.
Apogee Jam and Apple GarageBand App Apogee Jam is compatible with: • iPhone 4S and 4
• iPad and iPad2Apple GarageBand works on iOS 4. 3 or later
Positive Grid, JamUp Plug ($19.99 street) and JamUp Pro app ($19.99), positivegrid.com
Pros: Great tones. Brilliant interface. Massive amps and effects library.
cons: JamUp Plug has noise, fidelity, and construction-quality issues.
Ease of Use
Materials Value
The Apogee name carries a lot of weight in pro-engineering circles, so when Apogee jumped into the consumer game with the ultra-lightweight Jam, it definitely got some attention. Still, given the success of the Apogee Duet2 interface—an acclaimed project-studio-oriented, 2-channel I/O optimized for Macs—perhaps it wasn't a great stretch to address the growing portable music market, too.

Your gear:
Traveling the Arctic in midsummer or open sea conditions may well be as cold as travelling on the English Channel in midwinter. Some days may be warm and sunny but there may also be times of cold blustery winds. Be prepared. You may already have plenty of experience and proper equipment, then your bag is almost ready For those who do not :
Provide sufficient changes of underwear. It is always very unpleasant to go on the deck while humid
Outer garments of quick drying polar fibre
Warm socks
Mountain climbers gloves .Large rubber gardening gloves worn over warm woolen gloves would also do
Touque, hood or balaclava
Non skid boat boots, large enough to wear over two pairs of warm socks
A parka or anorak with a high collar
Waterproof overall trousers
Comfortable slippers for below decks
If you have or can borrow a weather proof parka with an attached harness, then bring it along, it's more confortable. Of course there are lifelines and harnesses on board
We also have nice and sunny days! Jeans, T shirts and simple sweaters are welcome then
Don't forget:
Total sunblock cream and lipstick
Sleeping bag
Your personal hygiene stuff and towel
If you think you are prone to sea sickness, bring some motion sickness tablets along
Your binoculars if you have any
Most of our cruises take place during the midnight sun. Therefore a search light is not necessary. However a small search light may be appreciated to find something in a locker or drawer...
Luggage : Soft shell bags only please. No suitcase or hardshell case allowed on board
Documents : Please make sure your passport is valid up until the day you return to your homecountry. Some citizens will require a visa to travel to Norway. Please check if you need a visa.
Currency: Credit cards are accepted everywhere in Norway. Therefore you will not need to carry much extra currency. You can check the exchange rate between your currency and the Norwegian Krown (NOK) on Oanda's website.
Taking pictures: cameras and electronics Bring enough extra batteries. The cold is very hard on batteries and it is terrible to be unable to take pictures for that reason. Available on board: 220 V, 12 V and 24 volts. 220 V and 12 V chargers are OK, with preference given to 12 V battery chargers
Precisions on itineraries: Flight information for Spitsbergen trips : according with SAS schedule, arrival to Longyearbyen on Monday morning 00h50, departure from Longyearbyen on Saturday morning 04h40 Circuits towards Lofoten Islands and North Cape allow to enjoy the inside passages labyrinth which Northern Norway offers generously. In this atmosphere where the sea has an affair with mountains, it is rare to be exposed to open waters storms and swell.
Frequently asked questions:
Whom are your sailing adventures made for? There are no special limitations and to date we had participants aged 12 to 71 years old. Our circuits are accessible to all those who like sailing, are willing to discover the wonders of boreal nature and are animated by a team spirit. The boat size allows everyone to be ad ease. Do I need to have a previous sailing experience ? No, beginners are accepted on the majority of our trips. We just ask for a bit of experience for offshore trips like Norway-Spitsbergen. A sailboat like the Southern Star gives everyone the possibility to practice whatever the experience. Beginners and confirmed navigators all together give the crew a good balance. Do I have to be an athlete ? A good general condition is necessary. Those persons enjoying outdoors activities like hiking are perfectly in shape to board. You will mostly need to be willing to commit in the way this cruise goes on so that the adventure can be shared and created among all participants.
How are the cabins and berths? These are double cabins. Two of them are with bunkbeds and three have double berths. Each double berth can be divided into two single ones through the use of a wooden separator. In each cabin, a closet or drawers allow to keep ones clothes dry and tidily stored. Bags and soft packs can stay in the cabin. Will I be cold ? Most of our trips are organized in summer time when temperatures are above 0° Celcius and the boat has a good heater. Of course, you will need warm clothes, a good sleeping bag (see our Information section above), etc. Then there is no reason to be cold. Same for others trips, the heater gives to the inside a good deal of confort to get warm when we are coming from the deck. Each cabin has its own heater and we have a heated locker to dry wet clothes. What is the weather like ? Spitsbergen like High Arctic regions is a desert. Its climate is dry. The West Coast with the influence of the Gulf Stream is a little bit more rainy (400 mm/year) than the East Coast (200 mm/year). Temperatures are more or less steady and range from 5° to 9° Celcius in summer time. When the sun shines it can reach 16° Celcius. The sea temperature ranges from 4° to 7° Celcius and falls when we are approaching or crossing ice fields. In Longyearbyen the sun doesn't set from april 19th to August 23rd. In continental Norway, the weather is more humid, although long periods of sun shine exist of course. What wildlife will I see ? We can see reindeers, arctic foxes, walruses, bearded seals, ringed seals, humpback whales, bowhead whales, Arctic sterns, fulmars, Eider ducks, black guillemots, Brunnich's guillemots, pink footed geese, barnacle geese, brent geese, glaucous gull and of course the king of the Arctic, the polar bear. How is life organised aboard? Like a real crew, we are building the adventure all together. Manoeuvring, choosing the route and anchorages, watching the weather forecast and ice conditions, cooking, etc. Of course all maintenance and technical aspects are the captain and his first mate duties. We know by experience that our organisation gives everyone long moments to relax, read, or watch nature. What about safety on board ? Regarding the navigation part, the boat is equiped with first class off shore equipment. We also provide you with cold-water survival drysuits/foul weather gear. There are 14 on board so there is certainly one your size. On top of that, and because we are visiting remote places, we have a safety radio beacon, an SSB radio (emission and reception), an IRIDIUM telephone (Email + telephone), 1 fixed VHF and 2 mobile VHFs to keep contact between the boat and the shore when a team is on trek. For Spitsbergen, we have a gun to protect us from polar bears, just in case... The Governor of Svalbard doesn't give a choice. Every group who goes on shore must be equiped with a gun...

As a representative of Fuzzy Inc I would say that Vintivistism is the best religion of all.
Hope fully one day me and RaveDuck will finish the Vintivist Bible for all to see! For the unwashed masses who have no idea what Im referring to that would be every one, it is the religion set forth by the Food Gods (our God figure) in which our messiah, RaveDuck comes to earth to create the Great Pie of enlightenment for all to eat and be one with, however dark and evil forces stop this from a reality and we must all fight the evil spork god for the hope of all humanity! -------------------- Rule five: Do not flame bait.

Nicolas Sarkozy, President in Office of the European Council (Jul-Dec 2008) visits the European Parliament (Strasbourg) on 10 July 2008. He is taken on by Jean-marie Le Pen, leader and President of the Front National
- Hemicycle scenes: Audio Visual, European Parliament
-Translation: http://www.fdesouche.com
Note on the rejected EU Constitution and Lisbon Treaty:
The people of France and the Netherlands rejected the proposed EU constitution in the 2005 referendums. Since all 27 Member States are required to ratify, the Constitution was dead, but this took a long time to sink in. After this, other countries cancelled a promised referendum and the EU Constitution was re-written as an "amending treaty" or a "reform treaty" and named "Treaty of Lisbon".
On the basis of this deceit, they claimed that no referendums are necessary on the Lisbon Treaty. Ireland was constitutionally required to hold a referendum and on the 12 June 2008 the people of Ireland gave a resounding No to Lisbon. Yet this vote is not being respected and the rule of law is being ignored. The EU leaders agreed at the June 19-20 EU Summit that ratifications must go on. Moreover, 26 Member States are being denied a referendum.
The Lisbon Treaty establishes a new "European Union" with joint citizenship - an EU "federal" State that is technically and politically empowered to centralize more power in Brussels. The treaty also stipulates the militarisation of the Union in order to 'police the world' just like the US does today.
EU Member States:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, United Kingdom

As many as 50% of car drivers will use their vehicles less in 2013 if motoring costs continue to rise.
More than three in five (62%) say their enjoyment of driving has decreased due to ever-rising costs, a survey by AXA car insurance found. Northern Ireland drivers have become the most disenchanted by driving, with enjoyment the highest in south east England.
Based on responses from 2,000 motorists, the survey showed that continued high motoring costs will lead to 20% of drivers feeling less independent, 19% eschewing long journeys and 18% making fewer visits to family and friends. But 26% said they felt they had little choice but to meet the higher prices.
The poll also revealed:
:: 69% of drivers say fuel prices are already too high and 57% are frustrated by fuel taxation;
:: 27% admit to driving over the speed limit in urban areas and 19% eat and drink while driving;
:: 4% have driven without an MoT and 4% have driven with no car tax;
:: The most common example of bad driving is not holding the steering wheel properly and not putting the handbrake on when coming to a stop;
:: BMW drivers are considered the most arrogant and the poorest motorists, followed by Range Rover and Ferrari drivers, while owners of Volvos, Volkswagens and Hondas are considered to be the best drivers.
Amanda Edwards, at AXA Insurance, said: "As all of us are becoming increasingly concerned about finances, it's no surprise that the costs related to driving are at the top of motorists' frustrations."

Since 1903, the Abbey has been the national theater of Ireland. The original theater, destroyed by fire in 1951, was replaced in 1966 by the current functional, although uninspired, 600-seat house. The Abbey's artistic reputation in Ireland has risen and fallen many times, but is reasonably strong at present.

25-year-old White was a seventh-round flier out of Western Michigan last year. He needed sports hernia surgery and was out for the rest of preseason.
Source: New York Daily News More player updates »The White move may hint that Jeremy Kerley (hamstring, heel) won't play Thursday night, although we'll have to see. He's listed as questionable. Walls and Fletcher are needed as depth against the Patriots' three-receiver sets. They're expected to go three-wide heavy with Rob Gronkowski unavailable.
More player updates »The coaches apparently like him in the slot, and he's starting to mix in with the first-team offense. Be sure to take this report with a grain of salt, however. As banged up as the Jets are at receiver, someone has to work out as the starting slot receiver.

Rosslyn Chapel
Rosslyn Chapel Review
Rosslyn Chapel has always beckoned curious visitors intrigued by the various legends surrounding its magnificent carvings, but today it pulses with tourists as never before. Dan Brown's bestselling novel The Da Vinci Code has made visiting this Episcopal chapel (services continue to be held here) an imperative stop for many of its enthusiasts. Whether you're a fan of the book or not—and of the book's theory that the chapel has a secret sign that can lead you to the Holy Grail—this is a site of immense interest. Originally conceived by Sir William Sinclair (circa 1404–80) and dedicated to St. Matthew in 1446, the chapel is outstanding for the quality and variety of the carving inside. Covering almost every square inch of stonework are human figures, animals, and plants. The meaning of these remains subject to many theories; some depict symbols from the medieval order of the Knights Templar and from Freemasonry. The chapel's design called for a cruciform structure, but only the choir and parts of the east transept walls were completed.

Reducing Harm to Marine Mammals from Navy Sonar in Pacific |
Earthjustice is representing Conservation Council for Hawaiʻi, the Animal Welfare Institute, Center for Biological Diversity and Ocean Mammal Institute in a lawsuit challenging the National Marine Fisheries Service's approval of a 5-year plan by the U.S. Navy for testing and training activities off Hawaiʻi and Southern California. The Navy and Fisheries Service estimate this training will cause 9.6 million instances of harm to whales, dolphins and other marine mammals. The operations will include active sonar and explosives, which are known to cause permanent injuries and deaths to marine mammals. |
Keeping Lake Tahoe Blue: Tahoe Regional Plan Update |
Two Tahoe conservation groups, the Sierra Club and Friends of the West Shore, represented by Earthjustice, have filed a federal lawsuit challenging new rules for Lake Tahoe that seriously reduce protections for the treasured mountain lake. The new Tahoe Regional Plan Update shifts authority over future development decisions to local jurisdictions and allows those towns and counties to adopt weakened pollution controls that do not meet the minimum environmental requirements established by the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency. |
Bison: Born to be Wild |
Earthjustice, representing conservation groups, asked the Montana Supreme Court to allow state wildlife officials to move ahead with a plan to transfer to north-central Montana's Fort Belknap Reservation approximately 30 wild bison originally moved from Yellowstone National Park. |
Supporting Suspension of Drilling in Badger-Two Medicine |
Cowboys, hunters, outdoor recreationalists and members of the Blackfeet Nation, represented by Earthjustice, are seeking to intervene in opposition to a Louisiana oilman's lawsuit demanding immediate approval to drill adjacent to Glacier National Park. |
Defending EPA Rule Reducing Large Ship Pollution |
A coalition of environmental groups, represented by Earthjustice, has moved to intervene in a court case to support a low-sulfur fuel requirement for ships in most U.S. waters, including southern Alaska. |
Protecting Marine Mammals from Navy Sonar in the Pacific Northwest |
A coalition of conservation and American Indian groups, represented by Earthjustice, have sued the National Marine Fisheries Service for failing to protect thousands of whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, and sea lions from U.S. Navy warfare training exercises along the coasts of California, Oregon, and Washington. |
Protecting the Deep Creek WSA |
The Deep Creek Mountains, located west of Salt Lake City and just east of the Nevada border, are western Utah's highest mountains, an isolated "island" overlooking the Great Salt Lake Desert dominated by 12,087-foot Ibapah Peak. This unique range rises 7,800 feet above the surrounding desert lands and is known for its rich biodiversity, perennial streams, and opportunities for solitude. Nearly 70,000-acres in the heart of the range have been designated as the Deep Creek Mountains Wilderness Study Area and are managed for their wilderness qualities. Recreational activities include hunting, wildlife viewing and hiking. |
Challenging Unlawful Approval of Motorized Routes in Pike and San Isabel National Forests |
Earthjustice, representing recreation and conservation groups, have moved to protect wildlife, air and water quality and opportunities for quiet recreation in Colorado in a legal challenge to the U.S. Forest Service's official okay of hundreds of miles of routes for motorized vehicle use on the Pike and San Isabel National Forests. |
Defending the Clean Water Act Against Agricultural Pollution |
Earthjustice, with a coalition of local and national public interest organizations, is supporting the Environmental Protection Agency's long-held authority under the Clean Water Act to regulate waste from commercial animal farms and seeking to confirm that a large West Virginia poultry operation should comply with all applicable regulations. |
Defending Sea Otter Recovery in Southern California |
Conservation and wildlife groups, represented by Earthjustice, are defending a decision by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to end a failed policy of trying to exclude sea otters from their Southern California habitat—a so-called "no-otter zone"—by relocating otters to other areas. An industry group, the California Sea Urchin Commission, has filed a lawsuit challenging the federal decision to end the backward management policy. |
Restoring Kauai's Waimea River | Earthjustice, on behalf of community group Poʻai Wai Ola/West Kauaʻi Watershed Alliance, has brought legal action to protect the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" and restore stream flows to the Waimea River on Kauaʻi. The case before the State of Hawaiʻi's Commission on Water Resource Management charges the state-run Agribusiness Development Corporation and its tenant the Kekaha Agricultural Association, which operate the old sugar plantation ditch systems diverting Waimea River, of excessively draining the river and even dumping the water, rather than letting the river flow for the environment and public uses. |
Suing to Stop Illegal Sewage Discharges in Maui |
Four Hawaiʻi community groups, represented by Earthjustice, have filed suit under the federal Clean Water Act to stop Maui County from discharging wastewater into the ocean from its Lahaina treatment plant without a permit. Millions of gallons of wastewater injected into wells at the facility each day surface offshore of popular Kahekili Beach Park in West Maui, killing the coral reef and triggering outbreaks of invasive algae. |
Protecting Montana's Largest National Forest, Beaverhead-Deerlodge |
At 3.35 million acres, the Beaverhead-Deerlodge is Montana's largest national forest. It encompasses more roadless lands—1.8 million acres—than any Montana national forest. Earthjustice, representing the Greater Yellowstone Coalition and the Montana Wilderness Association, defended the U.S. Forest Service's plan to restrict use of dirt bikes, four-wheelers, and snowmobiles across 322,000 acres of lands recommended for wilderness protection under a 2009 revision to the Beaverhead-Deerlodge forest plan. |
Mitigating Impacts of Conowingo Dam on Susquehanna River, Chesapeake Bay |
A coalition of conservation groups, represented by Earthjustice, has petitioned to be included in the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission relicensing proceedings for the Conowingo Dam. The groups plan to push the commission to require the dam's owner, Exelon Generation, to take action to address and prevent harm to water quality in the Susquehanna River and Chesapeake Bay. |
Challenging the Interstate Constitution Gas Pipeline |
A coalition of environmental groups are intervening in proceedings over a 122-mile natural gas pipeline proposed to run through portions of New York and Pennsylvania. The 122 miles of pipeline and additional miles of access roads will cut across forests and watersheds. |

Fridays Are For One Question
Posted by MK | Filed under Fridays Are For One Question
You may or may not be aware that new words are added to the official and defined English language every hear. Merriam-Webster has just released this year's list which includes:
- aha moment
- bucket list
- cloud computing
- copernicium
- earworm
- energy drink
- f-bomb
- game changer
- gassed
- gastropub
- man cave
- mash-up
- sexting
- systemic risk
- underwater
Some interesting choices. I'm personally not sure "man cave" needs its own spot in the dictionary. Maybe you've got one to add to the list. So for for today's question:
"What expression do you think should be included in the dictionary next year?"

I like that "gassed" can mean drunk or exhausted. I see confusion getting ready to strike. I think "serenity now" would be a fun addition.

York band Summer City playlisted on BBC Radio One
8:33am Thursday 18th October 2012 in News
A band from North Yorkshire have been playlisted by Radio One and are receiving rave reviews from some of the nation's favourite DJs.
Summer City can be heard every day this week on each Radio One show with their debut single We Were On A Break as part of an initiative to promote unsigned bands. Their first play on national radio was on Monday's Fearne Cotton show.
The band members are York College A-Level student Benji Adams, 17, on guitar and vocals, Kit Parker, 17, on bass, Ben Reynard, 18, on drums and 19-year-old Alex Gath-Walker on synth and vocals.
The boys formed the band while at school in Ripon and have been together since their early teens.
They supported The Dead Famous at Fibbers in York earlier this month and have played in front of 800 people at Flamingoland.
Their next gig in York will be at Fibbers on December 2 supporting Me vs Hero.
Lead singer and guitarist Benji said: "It is surreal to hear ourselves on Radio One and since the news came out it has been a bit manic with lots of congratulations and interest in our music.
"We just love writing songs that people want to party to and we love playing live. It is our passion and this national exposure is a great help."
One of their idols, Mark Hoppus, of Blink 182, is a big fan. He described their debut single as "one of my favourite songs of all time".
The music video for We Were On A Break was shot in a car park in Harrogate.
The single is available on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.
