About Jan Vandenburg
We bought our place at Palisade Pams after losing our beach house to Hurricane Ike and losing a family member to a long illness. Those were some stressful times. Our 'little slice of paradise' helped us make it through. The drive down from Houston on Friday afternoons, the anticipation of putting down the cares of the day and the opportunity for respite was a blessing for us. Fixing up our place and becoming part of the Island was such good therapy. Now, we are pleased to be able to share it with you.
Jan Vandenburg purchased this condo in 2010
Why Jan Vandenburg chose Galveston
This building is right on the beach! The location is super. The beach is in great shape. The fifteenth floor location makes for a great view. The building is shiny and new and has many amenities.
What makes this condo unique
This condo has two balconies! The popular Pompano floor plan has balconies on the beach side and the other bayside.See the sun rise and watch it set again.

Restore a hardwood floor
Restoring hardwood floor. (Sherwin Williams / December 23, 2013)
It's a three-part process that chemically sands the floor and creates a receptive surface that bonds the underlying finish to the new topcoat. A floor refinisher will charge $960 to restore a 10- by 12-foot floor using a sandless system. You can do it yourself for $220, the cost of the product, and save 77 percent.
Block out a few days for the job. It's a long day's job from start to finish. While you can walk on the floor 24 hours later, it's not ready for normal use until a few days later. The system includes solutions, wood finish, a scrubbing and lambswool pad, and an applicator block. You need a threaded broom handle, roller pan, measuring cup and rags. If there's a coat of wax on the floor, remove it with mineral spirits before the application.
Another way to revive floors without having to sand is by using Hardwood Floor Reviver by Minwax.

Vickie L. Powell, a 52-year-old Spring City, Tenn. resident, died in a two-car crash on U.S. Highway 27 north of Spring City on Friday afternoon.
According to early Tennessee Highway Patrol reports, 62-year-old Victor Kirkpatrick of Rockwood, Tenn., was pulling out of a private lot when his 2000 Chevrolet crossed northbound lanes, into "[Powell's] lane of travel."
Neither of the drivers were wearing seat belts.
Powell's vehicle reportedly struck the Chevrolet's driver door. Powell was taken to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Kirkpatrick was airlifted to Erlanger, and he is listed in stable condition.
According to the THP, Kirkpatrick was driving on a revoked license for DUI third offense. Blood-alcohol content and drug tests have been requested by state highway authorities. Those results were not available Friday night.

Wild birds are so common to us that we often glance at them without a second thought. When we really look at them, observe them and enjoy their special qualities, we can truly appreciate some of nature's amazing creatures.
Check out our Wild Bird Library to find out about some of your favorite birds!
Q. What are the most popular bird seeds to use?
A. Black Oil Sunflower Seed is the most popular bird seed. It is much smaller than the traditional sunflower seed and best for those birds with smaller bills, such as the sparrow, junco and goldfinch. This seed is accepted by the greatest variety of birds.Mixed Seed is also popular. It is best to buy the mixes that contain white proso millet, a tiny cream colored seed with a shiny shell. Mixes containing finely cracked corn and black oil sunflower are also preferred by a large number of birds.Thistle Seed is imported from Africa and Asia. Thistle won't germinate, however, it has a tendency to become moldy due to lack of air circulation. If you notice mold on the seed, it must be removed from the feeder and the feeder must be cleaned thoroughly.
Q. How do I clean my bird feeders?
A. No/No feeders can be dish washed or hand washed. Before filling your feeders with fresh seed, it is recommended that the following precautions are taken:
Dish washed
Hand washed
After the feeder is clean and dry follow these steps
Q. What is the importance of providing water for wild birds?
A. Wild birds need fresh, clean water just as much as they need seed. Birds stay healthy by using water not just for drinking, but also for bathing, cleaning their feathers and to remove parasites. Waterers are better options than bird baths because they provide birds with fresh, clean water that prevents dirt and debris from contaminating it. In hotter climates or seasons, providing water for birds makes it easy for them to have access to a water source and retain their energy. By adding a water source, you also can attract a larger variety of birds to your yard. You may even attract more colorful birds that don't eat seed, but are in need of water!
I've had so many feeders through the years and learned the weaknesses of them all. Once my husband and I even made a feeder ourselves because we needed something large that would hold up better than all the crappy plastic stuff in the stores. What is great about this feeder? Just about everything. It holds a lot, so I don't have to refill that often. It contains NO plastic, which makes it very, very, very good. It collapses for storage. It can be cleaned in the dishwasher, which helps prevent disease among the bird population. The birds love it and seem to be able to get to most of the seed, so you don't have a bunch clumping up in hard to reach places. I also like the bronze color, because it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb on the front of my condo. It's a little tricky to fill though. You really need 2 people because of how it collapses: 1 to hold up the feeder and another to pour. The tube down the center helps push the seed to the sides so the birds can eat it. It also seems to be squirrel-proof, so far. I've seen squirrels hang upside down on it to get seed that's in the tray, but they haven't got it open yet. The overhang also helps protect the seed from rain. I used a high-end blend of no-waste seed in it that doesn't contain millet, and it holds the seed well. I like it that there's never anything to clean up underneath. The squirrels, doves and chipmunks help with that too. If my opinion changes about its durability, washability, or squirrel-proof-ness, I'll update this review. But so far, I am loving this feeder. What a great product!!
Let me say I am the LEAST mechanical person on the planet....and this was a piece of cake. Seems to have the squirrels unhappily confounded but keeps my grandson age 2 in hysterics as they lot attack after attack...resulting in some seeds spilled but not the destruction experienced with other feeders. They perch on branches and take a flying leap, swing, and fly off...slim pickens! It will be easy to store in winter if it gets too icy...folds up like an accordion, so have found no flaws and it has been real entertainment! Get one and put it where you can watch...good for great laughs! It also attracts all sorts of beautiful birds!

Houston Criminal Defense Lawyer John Floyd Publishes THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT: A GUIDE TO THOSE WHO CAN'T
Houston criminal lawyer John Floyd has published a guide for those interested in the historical evolution and practical application of the Right to Remain Silent.
In 1966, the U.S. Supreme Court in Miranda v. Arizona stated that police interrogations of persons in custody have the physical and psychological potential to be coercive. For this reason, the Court held there should be prophylactic measures in place to safeguard against coerced confessions. These measures include warnings to criminal suspects or accused persons that they have 1) the right to remain silent; 2) that any statement they give to law enforcement may be used against them at trial; 3) they have a right to have an attorney present during interrogation; and 4) if they cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to them by the courts.
A common misunderstanding among non-lawyers is when the right to the Miranda warning attaches in an individual case. Miranda applies only to statements obtained after a criminal suspect or accused person is "in custody," meaning, under arrest or otherwise deprived of his freedom of action in a significant way. Pre-arrest statements are governed by whether they were voluntarily made. Therefore, statements made in response to police questions, prior to arrest are admissible in court, even if the Miranda warnings were never given.
"It is simple, you never have to speak to the police or answer any of their questions. Even if you have nothing to hide, you should always assert your right to have an attorney present before you make any statements to the police," says Houston criminal defense lawyer John Floyd.
"When a person comes under suspicion for being involved in any criminal activity, they should remain silent at all times and refuse to answer any questions until they confer with an attorney. Never, ever, take the police bait of 'we're just trying to clear this up,' or 'if you haven't done anything wrong you have nothing to hide.' The police have one objective: to make their case. They are not really concerned about either guilt or innocence or degrees of involvement. All they want is 'probable cause' to arrest. The fastest way to go from suspicion to arrest is to cooperate with the police," say Floyd.
For publications regarding this topic and other issues related to criminal law from a defense perspective visit Mr. Floyd's blog Criminal Jurisdiction.
John Floyd is Board Certified in Criminal Law and has been rated as among the best and brightest attorneys practicing criminal law with his recognition as one of Newsweek's Leading Criminal Defense Attorneys 2012, Houston's Top Lawyers for the People (2008, 2009), Top Lawyers: Criminal Defense (2008, 2009, 2010, 2012) and his "Superb" rating, scoring 10/10, from AVVO. He has appeared on national television and radio programs as an expert on criminal law related issues and has been quoted in newspapers and other news outlets throughout the country.

Dr. Michael H. Freedland's Ratings
Dr. Freedland and Cindi were great. They are very knowledgeable and surgery went great. Only thing is it seemed like they pushed to go to the biggest size. I didn't, and my husband is happy that I didn't but its still stuck in the back of my head that maybe I should have. Maybe in 10 years :) Super happy with my results, everything is symmetrical and looks natural! I have already referred friends to Dr. Freedland.

My experience with Dr Freedland and his staff from start to finish was remarkable!! I cannot say enough great things about doc and his staff! They made me feel like I was their only priority at every visit. Everyone was friendly and super supportive. From my first consultation to my post surgery appointments, I had nothing but a wonderful experience!!

Dr. Freedland did my breast augmentation a little over a month ago, and I look and feel great! He was knowledgeable and relaxed which helped make me feel comfortable. His assistant, Cindi, helped me to choose my size. She was really great, knowledgeable and fun. I can't even tell you how much I love my breasts. One of the best decisions I ever made! Worth every penny. Thanks Dr. Freedland! - Monique

Dr. Freeland and Cindi McKendrick (Medical Assistant) are the best! They provided me with great information, from what to expect, the fittings, and pre & post opt follow up. Cindi fitted made me feel comfortable and helped me to choose the right size enhancement for my shape and activity level! I was well prepared for the surgery and Dr. Freeland made me look wonderful. I highly recommend them!

I look and feel great, had Breast Augmentation by Dr. Freedland. I did my fitting with Cindi and that was fun, she got me the size I wanted to be. Everyone in the office was very helpful and nice. I have sent 3 of my girlfiends to Dr. Freedland. They also are very happy. Thank you Dr. Freedland and staff. I will be back for a little liposuction.

I now look as young as I feel! Thank you Dr. Freedland for actually listening to me and spending so much time going over surgery options. About a year ago, I ended up having a mini facelift, eye lid lift and he shaved a little off the nose. Just enough to really make a difference. I was definitely bruised and swollen at first, which I expected, but after a few months it really looked good! He didn't pull too tight or make me look surprised. People tell me I look well-rested, which is exactly what I wanted. Great experience, I would recommend Dr. Freedland to anyone!

The staff is great. They are very knowledgeable about there products. As far as dr friedlan goes he seems to have done a lot of good work and probably does have many satisfied patients. However, after my ba surgery I noticed one side was lower thank the other and I didn't know why. When i went in to see dr fiedlan He told me " it just happens sometimes and that he could lower the other one to make them even. I definitely wanted a 2nd opinion. After researching other doctors. Most of them were almost uncomfortable talking with me about it and said it wasnt that noticable that i should leave them the way they were. I noticed. And I couldn't even were a bathing suit and I definitely wouldn't be in the book of his perfected breast augmentations. I could of gone back to have them revised. But he couldn't even tell me that I bottomed out on one side and needed revision. He said if I wait he could lower the other side to make them even!!!! I wouldn't have cleavage if I did that!!!!

Shauna Sand Denies A.J. Lamas Boningby Free Britney at . Comments
Apparently A.J. Lamas is one of few guys who hasn't banged Shauna Sand.
The Playboy model claims she's not a notch on her stepson's bedpost, despite a horrible rumor that her ex-husband's reality show may be trying to perpetuate.
Sand claims the pilot of Leave it to Lamas was based on a "lie" that she had sex with A.J. Lamas, Lorenzo's son. Shauna is, like, totally hurt by the accusation.
Because, after all, it would totally sour her pristine reputation if true. Says the star of the hilariously staged, graphic PR stunt that is the Shauna Sand sex tape.
Did A.J. Lamas hit it with his former stepmom?
In any case, Shauna says it never happened, and released this statement:
"It turned out the whole first episode of Leave it to Lamas revolved around a lie that the Lamas family concocted about me sleeping with my step-son A.J."
The skanky Sand continued: "This story is absolutely untrue and I'm absolutely sick of being used and ridiculed by this family for the benefit of their show."
She's cool with using the debut of their show to generate buzz for her nasty video, though. When Shayne Lamas sees through your act, you've got issues.
Not such a big thing. The stepson isn't related to her (by blood), so who cares who he screwed? If this is true he must be the only guy in LA County who HASN'T slept with her.
I personally spoke to AJ and he said he did screw his step-mom when he was living with his dad and her. He was 18 and she made the first move.
the whole family are screwed up anything could of happened. i think its true...seriously
You know I never heard of these people either. Who'd want to be famous for something like this?
i dont see why they lie
I agree with you angelina! i never knew who this was until all those rumours came out
this woman is an attetion seeker. and a sick one too
if the rumor is just a rumor then it's a disgusting thing to make up and if its not then it's a disgusting thing for both the step son and mom to do
before the sex tape and reality show, I (and most likely thousands others) had no clue who these people were so i guess mission accomplished by the rumors, tape, and statements

A California law that's "close to passing" would spell suspension or expulsion for students who bully online or on phones, according to an article in the San Francisco Chronicle. "The measure by Assemblyman Ted Lieu, a Democrat from Torrance, passed the Senate Monday on a 21-11 vote. It goes back to the Assembly for consideration of Senate amendments and will be sent to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger if passed." The page in the Chronicle links to the full text of the legislation.

Recent Chocolate Hole Reviews
Great Location and Lovely View!
We had an absolutely wonderful time staying right on the water, enjoying the kayaks and snorkeling just steps away. The home had everything that we needed to cook meals in, or just a few minutes drive to Cruz Bay, where the restaurant choices were abundant. We love the peaceful neighborhood and will definitely choose this home for our next St. John trip!
Wedded Bliss!
We got married last weekend at Villa St John under the gazebo by the pool with the reception onsite as well. The event could not have gone better! With over 30 people for wedding and reception, there was plenty of room inside and out and our guests throughly enjoyed this beautiful spot and house!! Our family stayed at the house for the week. We had a couple of single adult family members staying in the main house bedrooms and Jarrid put a few air mattresses on frames in the guest house upstairs for the young adult children/cousins with plenty of room for everyone! The views were awesome and the rooms were very spacious. I loved the window in the shower and saw an iguana in the tree outside the window over the tub. We cooked family dinners in the kitchen with plenty of room for everyone to chip in and plenty of room for dining. Some of the beach chairs had torn bottoms and when I let Jarrid know, we had new ones before the next day! Awesome service!! I would definitely go back to Villa St John, we had a fabulous time. Don't forget your bug spray if you go to St John in the summer time!
The property was all we needed with amazing views
Me and my fiancé stayed at Aussie suite for a week to plan our wedding for next year. We got engaged last year on St John, but have not stayed on this island until this last trip. The views are amazing being right on the water. There are kayaks that are there so you don't have to rent any. The snorkeling is also pretty good right at chocolate hole. We used the hot tub a couple of times, but most nights we were so tired from the days of swimming and snorkeling and relaxing. You are not in Cruz Bay, but right by it so it is quiet and close to town about a 5 minute drive. There were people staying upstairs that we saw a couple of times outside and we only heard them once. Overall it is a great place for what you are spending i definitely recommend it.

JellyBeanChick: I`m no doctor, but you may want to try out some of the products in the brand AVEENO. They sell everything from lotions and make-up removers to shampoo`s. Their ingredients are very natural and won`t irritate your skin. I own quite a few of their products and they are all awesome! I couldn`t live without their body wash! It`s a must have! These products are affordable and could be purchased at your local drugstore so it is worth a try!
I hope this helps!

What if you have black eyes (yes, my eyes are black)? My friends say smokey eyes look amazing (yah, they look good on me), but i dont want something so drastic everytime i wear eyeshadow...

fullofdreams well,with gray eyes you can use many MANY shades.
If you have like a plain blah gray,a light shade of ice blue made your eyes pop,along with some mascara.
If you have silvery gray eyes,you can't go wrong with a light coat of silver glitter shadow,like the one shown in the article.
And if you have those blue-gray eyes (Or as my friend pointed out "wolf eyes") they look cool with a neatruel tone with a light-light layer of gray eyeliner with Lear or jet black mascara.
For any make up that you use,I suggest covergirl,maybelline,or,if you want to save money,Cvs.com.
Hopes this helps!

Can I get some help?!? I have a skin condition called eczema. It makes patches of my skin REALLY dry and sometimes reddish. People are always asking about it and sometimes they think I have been crying ALOT. I can't use concealer or makeup to cover it up because it just makes it worse. I have also tried medicine from my doctor. Nothing seems to work. Can someone tell me how to get rid of this please!?! Thank you!
by JellyBeanChick on 3/21/2012 2:08:18 PM
Ummm... what about grey? My eyes are grey most days and no one ever seems to think about us grey-eyed girls when they make stuff like this.

Thank you GirlsLife! My eyes are blue but they are way harder choosing an eye shadow! For starters you can't use lots of various colors since a lot of the times it doesn't match! I usually wear a light tan to highlight my eyes, a pale pink to give it a more magical look, or a tan/ bronze for a natural look. (Pale blue eye shadows are okay for real fancy occasions, or if I am wearing a blue dress or shirt. White eye shadow looks like your trying to hard and just doesn't fit.) For lipgloss I usually use a bright red or a light pink. I use red if I'm feeling daring or more mature, I use pink on a normal day to again enhance the natural look. I also use a swipe or two of bronzer on my cheek bones because I feel I am kinda pale. I usually look pretty cute by the end of this process!

Result, they produce games like Assassin's Creed or Crysis, which they make it famous using Promos, Ads.
REWIND TIME, as they popularly do it in Prince Of Persia Sand Trilogy and rewind the time to 1989 and you get Jordan Mechner.
This is a guy who single handedly produced this CLASSIC called Prince Of Persia. If not for him i highly doubt if Prince Of Persia Sands Of Time would have been ever made.
The PRODUCTION, Animation, direction, Sound Effects were all done by ONE MAN and that is this guy Jordan Mechner.
JM followed a very simple method called ROTOSCOPY in which he closely studied all the movements of his teenager brother and thus made this game very simple. That's where the look, dress and the height of prince of persia came.
There is young lad who is a poor boy and he and the princess fall in love. This is not liked by the vizier who captures the princess and would kill her in 60 minutes. Yes, as you may have guessed you have 1 hour to save the princess and become the prince of persia and finish the game else GAME OVER.
Gameplay is simple. You start out without a sword. You have to search for it and find it then kill the enemies. There are portions Red which give you health, Blue is poison and others like Green etc. The best part of the game is the LETHAL and DEADLY traps and the gore was amazing. This is unfortunately missing in Today's Prince Of Persia games. The slicer trap cut you in half. The FAMOUS spikes below Bore through the prince's legs. There are 14 Levels and show Simplicity as its best. The best thing about this game is that you really feel as if you are playing. I remember the way i used to get angry, frustrated, scared or sad whenever the prince used to get killed by those soldiers or those deadly traps. Even my 8 year old cousin now shows the same reaction i used to show 15 Years back which shows that this game can be played even by today's Kids!!
Graphics is good for that time. Considering its done in C++ and by one man i would give graphics a rating of 10/10. All the levels had the same maps and the burning flames, soldier's graphics, prince's graphics and the traps most importantly were all amazing for that time.
This is considered the greatest 2D game of PC (MS DOS). And i wouldnt disagree. This is the first ever 2D game (I am not considering Karateka as it was by the same man and it was not so much of a hit). Also POP is the first ever game that introduced the concept of CINEMATICS. Which hit games of today like Half Life, Prince Of Persia Sand Trilogy have. Also Prince Of Persia gives the best Persian or Arabian feel and really makes you feel like you are in Ancient Persia and how it feels like to be a Prince.
All in all, after reading this review dont expect a lot from this game. Man it doesnt even run on any PC these days. But for 1991(when i played it), this is the game that got me addicted to gaming.
Graphics - 10/10
Gameplay - 10/10
Story - 9/10
Value - 10/10
Tilt - 10/10
Overall - 9.9/10.

Its debatable ?
Submitted by BowShallEveryKnee on Fri, 05/14/2010 - 22:16. Permalink
I spend most of my time reading NON fiction,Like the Bible,Law dictionaries,learning some latin some hebrew some greek. Ron Paul is a Christian which is much deeper then some heathen author with some good points.
Place your bets people , choose wisely it is forEVER.
Where did the time, space and matter come from?, if you are so smart from reading a FICTION novel? Unless you repent ,You will rue the day you said "it is debatable"repent for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Have you ever even read a Bible or a non fiction book?

Posted April 17, 2012 on AP on Fox
Minnesota All-Star forward Kevin Love is out for the fourth straight game because of concussion symptoms. Coach Rick Adelman confirmed Love's absence before the Timberwolves hosted Memphis on Tuesday night. Guard Luke Ridnour was also declared out for the eighth game in a row with a sprained right ankle. Adelman said he'd like them to play again before the season is over, but only if they're healthy. The coach said Ridnour might play Sunday against Golden State but acknowledged he's ''pretty pessimistic.'' Center Darko Milicic was on the bench as well, for the 10th game in a row because of a strained right hamstring. And center Nikola Pekovic was still bothered by bone spurs in his right ankle. The Wolves were considering shutting him down as well for the season's last week.

November 28, 2014
Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman has signed a new safe haven law, limiting the age limit to children 30 days old or less. The new law will take effect at 12:01 a.m. November 22nd.
Nebraska lawmakers gave final approval to the bill Friday morning. The old law had been used to abandon 35 children at state hospitals since July; many of them pre-teens or teenagers as old as 17.
The old law was meant to prevent newborns from being dumped in trash bins or worse. But it was the only one in the country that lacked an age limit. Five of the children abandoned have been from other states, including from as far away as Florida and Michigan.

It seems Doctor Who can't magic his way out every situation.
New Timelord Matt Smith ran into trouble as he passed through body scans at Heathrow Airport this week.
The 27-year-old, who was boarding a flight to Belfast, was stopped when the sonic screwdriver he was carrying in his pocket was identified as a weapon by officials.
"Matt's a huge fan of the screwdriver so didn't think anything of carrying it with him on the plane. It's basically just a fake prop and doesn't exactly do much," a source tells The Sun.
"But going through the X-ray scanner it probably looks like a weapon, albeit something you'd see in Star Wars.
"Matt was very polite and explained what the screwdriver was. But the guards just looked puzzled. Fortunately he had some Doctor Who promo material on him so was able to show them who he was.
"Once the penny dropped and they had a proper look at the screwdriver, they let him through."

Las Vegas cab driver finds $300K in back seat
Las Vegas cab driver Gerardo Gamboa thought someone left a bag of chocolates in the back seat.
Las Vegas cab driver Gerardo Gamboa thought someone left a bag of chocolates in the back seat.
But this stash turned out to be cold hard cash.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal (http://bit.ly/1eCLU1I ) reports Gamboa was making a pickup Monday at the Bellagio when a hotel doorman noticed the brown paper bag and handed it to him.
At a red light the Checker Cab driver's curiosity got the best of him. To his surprise, he found six bundles of $100 bills totaling $300,000.
The newspaper reports Gamboa called his dispatcher and took the money to the company's main office.
Las Vegas police and casino officials were able to link the money to a well-known poker player they declined to identify.
It is unknown whether Gamboa will receive a big Christmas tip.

Top Teachers: Matt Togna
Tucker H.S., 10th-12th grades
All teachers have their share of embarrassing moments, and Matt Togna is not shy about sharing a memorable one of his – which occurred during his first months of teaching.
One lab day, while preparing for his class to use their Bunsen burners, Togna turned on the main valve for the gas line while in another classroom eating lunch. Unbeknownst to him, a student fiddling with the gas valve had left it open – which led to a classroom full of gas and the need to move to another teacher's room while his was vented.
"[The teacher] made me wear a sort of 'dunce' cap," Togna said, "while I taught my class in her room. She's been at Tucker for a long time, so she could do that to the new guy. Thanks, Ms. Selden!"
The last thing his students would label Togna, however, is a dunce. One student called him "one of the smartest, and brightest minds that I know of in Henrico County" and adds that classmates agree Togna is "the best teacher we have had in all of our years K-12."
His students say that Togna makes difficult courses such as AP and college prep chemistry interesting and easier to understand. Students know they can drop by his classroom any time to get help, and they are inspired by his energy, work ethic, and passion for his job.
"He puts forth 120 percent effort into making classroom time fun, enjoyable, and informative," wrote one student. "For heaven's sake, the man arrives at school at 7 a.m. every single day [and] doesn't leave until 6 p.m. – more than two hours after school ends!"
Togna finds rewards in those long hours, however, whenever he sees a student truly grasp the meaning of an academic challenge. He mentioned a recent incident in which a student critiqued her own lab data and demonstrated that she wanted to understand her mistakes and improve her lab process. "She doesn't want the right answer simply to get an 'A,'" said Togna. "She wants to get better!"
In the same vein, he said, "Of course it's great when a kid finally 'gets it.' It's even more rewarding when they want to know why it's the right answer."
Motivating students can be tough, he admits, when difficult tasks such as working through math problems and balancing chemical equations are involved. "It's so easy to throw in the towel when it gets hard."
What's more, he said, a teacher has to remind students constantly of the big picture. "Kids often ask the question, 'When am I going to ever need this stuff?'
"Well," Togna responds, "many of you won't, and that's okay. Again, it's about the process of learning and working through something challenging."
Above all, said Togna, he has one hope for his students. "It's that when they wake up in 20 years they enjoy getting out of bed and going to work. That's how I feel [about teaching]. I want them to have that same enthusiasm for whatever it is that they do."

CCC seeks donations for food pantry
Citizen Staff Reports 11/12/2014
Commonwealth Catholic Charities is in desperate need of food donations for its community food pantry that serves the region's low-income families, according to officials with the Henrico-based nonprofit.
After moving into its new location this past summer, the agency has dedicated a larger space for the pantry but the shelves are practically empty.
"As we head into the holidays and the weather turns colder, the need for food becomes even more critical, but unfortunately our cupboards are nearly bare," said Jay Brown, the agency's director for the division of housing services. "Donations of food will allow us help provide." > Read more.

The police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, last August sparked worldwide outrage and a protest movement that is still on the streets. Ferguson has become a symbol of the racism and violence that is the hallmark of policing across the world.
In Britain years of campaigning have exposed the extent of injustices past and present: the fitting-up of striking miners who took on Thatcher, the appalling response to the Hillsborough disaster, police spying on Stephen Lawrence's family and the treatment of women activists by undercover cops. Those seeking accountability face a long, hard struggle with many powerful institutions ranged against them.
Now we see fresh attacks on our civil liberties. Despite the death of Ian Tomlinson in 2009, demonstrators continue to be kettled and physically abused by police. Trade unionists are hemmed in by anti-union laws and face further threats to their rights to strike and demonstrate. Legal aid cuts are stripping away people's ability to challenge state policies and abuses. On top of this the Conservatives have pledged to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights.
Austerity, escalating inequality and the "war on terror" form a wider context to this assault. Protests, occupations, organising and solidarity are the only tools we have to fight back and raise alternatives – whether it is in Ferguson, Hong Kong, Cairo or here in Britain.
We hope this conference will provide a space where we can come together to discuss what's going on, share experiences, equip ourselves to defend our basic rights and think about how to build a stronger movement against injustice for the battles ahead.
SOAS MSA Presents – Criminalising Islam: A Panel Discussion
Over the last decade and a half, there has been a tangible movement all across the globe towards the criminalising of Islam. This has been particularly problematic in the "democratic" west where a distinct climate of islamophobia has given rise to a number of legal measures which target the Muslim community behind the cloak of 'national security'.
The Muslim Students' Association has proudly convened a group of experts to discuss, interpret and analyse this pernicious phenomenon.
The event will take place in the Khalili Lecture Theatre (KLT) on Friday, November 14th at 5pm. Please be sure to reserve your free tickets early as availability will be limited. You can do so here.
The Panel will include the following speakers:
Muhammad Dilwar Hussain – Prominent Muslim Journalist, Deputy editor of 5Pillarz.com and frequent contributor to the Huffington Post.
Abdullah Al-Andalusi – Prominent Muslim debater, media personality and senior researcher with the Muslim Debate Initiative (MDI).
Hamja Ahsan – Social justice advocate, brother of former detainee extradited to the US, Talha Ahsan, and campaign director at FreeTalha.org.
Sheikh Sulaiman Ghani – Imam, TV Presenter and prominent member of the Justice for Aafia (Siddiqui) Coalition.

PLEASE SIGN: In the USA over 80,000 people at any time are in solitary confinement. To put that into perspective, that is 22-24 hours a day confined to a cell that is 12.3 by 7.5 feet. This practice violates a raft of international laws and standards.
The USA must open up these super-maximum security prisons for UN scrutiny. http://bit.ly/1tAO2IS
In the USA, over 80,000 people on any one day are held in isolation, with 25,000 held long-term in super-maximum security prisons. That's 22-24 hours a day confined to a cell for months, years or decades in conditions of severe social and physical isolation. Individuals in solitary confinement are deprived of all but the minimal amount of human contact, both within the prison and with those outside it. The harsh conditions are psychologically devastating; to understand the brutal consequences of isolation you need to look no further than the statistic that half of all successful suicides in US prisons occur in solitary cells.
There is little external oversight into super-maximum security prisons. In the course of Amnesty International's research into our latest report on isolation, our repeated requests to visit Florence Administrative Maximum (ADX) facility and the Metropolitan Correctional Centre (MCC) where prisoners are held in pre-trial isolation were turned down. Super-maximum security facilities should not be insulated from access by human rights groups and experts. External scrutiny is particularly important where prisoners are isolated within an already closed prison environment and where there is little publicly available information on the facilities.
In a speech to the UN in September, President Obama stated that the US welcomes international scrutiny. Let us test this resolve and call on the Secretary of State to extend an invite to the UN Special Rapporteur (SR) on Torture to visit super-maximum security prisons – including ADX and MCC. Such a visit by the SR would provide an authoritative assessment for the UN on the USA's obligations under international law in regard to the prohibition on torture and on other cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment.
Secretary of State, John Kerry,
The US uses solitary confinement to an extent unequalled in any other democratic country. Over 80,000 people on any one day are held in isolation, with 25,000 held long-term in super-maximum security prisons. This practice violates a raft of international laws and standards, including the rights enshrined in the Convention against Torture and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights to be free from torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment.
As a first and necessary step to curbing the US's use of solitary confinement, we urge you to extend an invite to the UN Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment, to carry out a fact-finding visit to US super-maximum security prisons. The visit should include both state and federal facilities – including those where individuals are held in pre-trial isolation – under the terms requested by his office.
President Obama recently stated at the UN that the US welcomes international scrutiny. Let this be a litmus test for the US Government's commitment to such enquiry on an issue where the US stands virtually alone.]]>
Talha Ahsan case also features in a number of submissions of written evidence to the House of Lords Select Committee as a matter of public concern by David Bermingham, Dr. Nisha Kapoor, Julia O'Dwyer, Arun Kundnani with Centre of Constitutional Rights (USA), Islamic Human Rights Commission and Frances Webber of Institute of Race Relations. Amnesty International have written objection to US supermax prisons & pre-trial long term isolation that Talha was subject to. Solicitor Kaim Todner had written criticisms and recommendations that apply to Talha in particular the abusive use of plea-bargaining by US prosecutors.

perverse results that arise where discretion to block extraditions on forum grounds is

following the comments of US federal judge, Janet Hall, during the sentencing of
extradited Britons Babar Ahmad and Talha Ahsan…" (p. 16)
pressure has been placed on the human rights bar as the catch-all for extradition
injustice. For example, while solitary confinement and disproportionate sentencing
were clearly of valid concern in the Ahmad and Ahsan cases, the greater source of
perceived injustice was the issue of forum and the lack of evidence required for their
extradition. In some cases, judges have had to consider questions of procedural
injustice through the lens of the human rights bar leading to contorted results. By
restoring proper procedural discretion to the judiciary in extradition cases, these
outcomes can be avoided." (p. 20)

"Another feature of US extradition that should be revised is the threat of draconian sentences and refusal of repatriation in order to force a guilty plea to a lesser crime with a reduced sentence and guaranteed repatriation. This is an example of the fact of extradition being used as coercive tool for a prosecutor to gain an advantage over a suspect that would not exist if the suspect was in their own Country facing their own justice system."

"In the case of my son Gary McKinnon and in the case of Richard O'Dwyer, Talha Ahsan and others; the British Police handed over the alleged evidence to their US equivalents, otherwise it would have remained here in the U.K, thus giving the CPS the wherewithal to launch prosecutions against them here in the U.K, providing the evidence was strong enough to warrant it."

Submission to House of Lords Select Committee on the Extradition Law 2014
My name is Syed Talha Ahsan. I am a British citizen born in London, UK. I am 35 years old. I was educated at Dulwich College, South London and the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London. I am diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome – a condition on the autism spectrum.
Eight years ago I was on the verge of becoming a professional librarian. I want to share with the Lords Extradition Law Committee some details of my personal experience with extradition.
My submission is organised as follows:
I thank the committee for understanding my current circumstances and extending the deadline for my evidence.
Respectfully submitted,

PART OF This is Not a Gateway Festival 2014:
Hamja Ahsan, Dr. Nisha Kapoor
Dr. Nisha Kapoor
Great Hall
Hamja's older brother Talha Ahsan was taken from his bedroom in south London aged 26, held without charge in various maximum-security prisons in the UK for 6 years before being extradited to America where he was held in solidary confinement for two years. As soon as his case did go in front of a judge he was released. Talha is now 34 years old and soon to embark on rebuilding his and his families shattered life. One of the key outcomes of the US/UK/Europe state's War on Terror has been to justify the enhancement of securitisation and the making of citizenship vulnerable; 'citizenship is a privilege, not a right'. This session will explore these dynamics in more detail, discuss the cases of individuals who have been affected, and question what the implications of state actions are on the right to life. It is also an opportunity to celebrate Talha's release.
Nisha Kapoor is a lecturer at the University of York, a writer and activist. Her academic work broadly focuses on the relationship between race and the state and specifically examines processes of exclusion and expulsion that have been legitimated, enhanced and progressed in the War on Terror. She has written and campaigned on the extradition of terrorist suspects to the US and is also currently researching citizenship deprivation and mass deportation. She is co-editor of The State of Race. She is the author of a paper racial inequality and extradition of Talha Ahsan and Babar Ahmad. She recently submitted evidence to the House of Lords on Extradition. DOWNLOAD here: http://data.parliament.uk/
Hamja Ahsan is an artist, cultural producer, curator and civil liberties & human rights campaigner. He is the brother of Talha Ahsan who was recently extradited to a USA Supermax prison – after over 6 years of detention without trial. Hamja leads his national and International campaign with the issues of Extradition law, post-9/11 erosion of civil rights, solitary confinement and internment. He is currently a full-time campaigner, touring the UK with film, literary & speakers tours. Hamja was nominated for a Liberty Human Rights Award 2013 for his civil liberties campaign work and an Alhamra award for excellence in the Arts in 2013. He is working on a book project titled 'Shy Radicals: AntiSystematic Politics of the Militant Introvert'. www.freetalha.org
