Today, there is a notable gap between the expectations of shoppers and retail environments. Demand for instant, hassle-free transactions has become the norm. To your average shopper, waiting in a queue, 2-hour delivery slots, even typing in a pin is considered too much. That's why we're busy reinventing the retail experience.
We believe successful retail must be responsive. Therefore, we've been working to create a more personal experience. By creating environments that can flex and form around our individual users we can offer real service and value. And when effort is reduced it creates lots of lovely space for better, more engaging brand experiences. Because the less our customers have to do, the more time they have for things they want to do.
What makes us experts in the future of retail?
We recently led the biggest digital transformation of in-store comms in UK retail history. As a result, 3.5 million people view and interact with our work every day. This sheer volume of data feedback means we can quickly optimise our solutions. So, thanks to the boundless new opportunities of tomorrow's world, our reinvention of the retail experience has only just begun.

Former President of the American Arbitration Association. From the obituary in the Greenwich Time:
Robert Coulson, an international leader in the field of arbitration and dispute resolution, died on September 9, 2017, in Stamford Hospital, Connecticut, following a stroke. He was 93 and lived in Riverside for 40 years. He was president and CEO of the American Arbitration Association for two decades, and a tireless advocate for more efficient and equitable alternatives to litigation.
"Almost any human activity is more profitable than worrying a dreary lawsuit through the courts," he wrote in How to Stay Out of Court in 1968. "More often than not, some better method for resolution can be found."
He was born in New Rochelle, New York, to Abby Stewart Coulson and Robert Earl Coulson. He graduated from Phillips Academy, Andover, in 1943, Yale University 1950, and Harvard Law School 1953. He served in the U.S. Army during World War II in the Harbor Craft Company in England.
After law school, he practiced law in Boston and New York before joining the American Arbitration Association. At the AAA, he helped to expand the use of ADR in America and promoted arbitration through the International Council on Commercial Arbitration.

Rajouri-Poonch to ignore poll boycott call
Anil Bhatt in Bafliaz, Surankote | November 13, 2008 15:29 IST
Mountain dwellers in the twin border districts of Rajouri and Poonch are all set to ignore the poll boycott call given by separatists in the Jammu and Kashmir [Images] and cast their ballot in the assembly elections.
People in Bafliaz, once safe sanctuary of the foreign mercenaries and launching pad of local militants, separatists and over ground workers, have rejected the separatists' call of poll boycott and decided to favour balloting to bring permanent and sustainable peace in the state.
"There are no takers of Kashmiri separatists poll boycott call here. Ballots are related to governance by the people and we will take part in it," said 67-year-old Din Mohammad Khan, who lost his two sons in a gunbattle with security forces in Hill Kaka [Images] area in 2004.
Din's feelings were echoed by another villager, Zahoor-ud-Din of Salian who witnessed the death of several militants in various encounters.
"We have closed our doors to militants and separatists. We have lost everything, our youth. We want peace to prevail in this land locked Surankote belt. For this, we will vote and not boycott it," Altaf Hussain, who runs a cloth shop in the town, said.
Maintaining that poll boycott call will not serve any purpose, a school teacher at Jarnewali Gali, Anwar Khatana said: "We do not want Governor's rule and will vote for
setting up peoples' government. The Kashmir issue, which separatists say is related to elections, is a bilateral issue between India and Pakistan and we are the party to it," he said.

But obviously, Tails has a quite specific set of usecases and a quite small userbase, so the fact nobody went as far as asking Tails developers about support for another architecture certainly does not imply that nobody is interested in running Debian (and, why not, random software we ship, or may ship, in Debian) on it. >> make it fully portable or there >> is no point considering inclusion in Debian. (Debian developer hat on.) I would be surprised if the Torbrowser patches made Iceweasel any less portable. It could be useful to confirm this, e.g. by building Tails' Iceweasel + Torbrowser source package [1] on Debian architectures not supported by the Tor project. Oh, here's yet another way to help :) [1] git://labs.riseup.net/tails_iceweasel.git > The point is: people are interested in anonymous browsers - there > are none in Debian. As mentionned about every time this situation is mentioned: there's a plan that has got the agreement of the people who would be the most impacted by the code duplication (namely: the Iceweasel maintainer and the security team). Nobody had time to implement this plan or design a better one yet. Anyone interested in *fixing* this situation should go talk to Jérémy Bobbio <email@example.com>.

Doug, Wayne, Perry & Curt were the original team. Doug was the most experienced man on the team. Doug was our team leader through all of the major structural build. He worked closely with Curt on all aspects of the first six months of construction. He would always lead the 12 hour work days when Wayne and Curt would have bailed. Curt actually did on several days ( he he / it is good to be property owner ).
Driving every day some 30 miles one way Doug showed up on a regular basis. His handyman skills proved invaluable more than once. Every piece of this project that presented a challenge and Doug was there with good ideas and input. When we had to seal the wall along the rock it was Doug's Idea to use corner bead to increase the contact surface between plywood and rock. It gave the great stuff something to adhere too.
My favorite story during the construction with Doug was when he was 35 feet in the air on the scissor lift. We decided that there was a rock we were sure was going to come down. It was small football shape and we decided that it should be taken out. Doug was chiseling away when the giant 2000 pound rock above the little one came loose from the wall. It made a huge noise and motion as it shattered in to Dust when it hit the scissor lift. The scissor lift swayed. When the cloud of rock settled we looked up and found a rock dust covered Doug.
"Doug are you ok?", Doug said, "Yes, just need to change my pants."

I feel like jabbering about some of the upcoming in game changes that are about to happen. Now keep in mind while you read my rambling that I am not a huge number person. Never have been, never will be...numbers and I just aren't huge pals. We associate out of necessity, but we don't get along too well. If you're the type of person to run Sims and that always does the number crunching in order to get the most out of your character, that's cool. I've always been more of the type that goes with my gut on how my set up is performing, and which direction I should go in order to improve my DPS (or on the occasion heals and tanking too).
Now, today Totem Talk put up this post on the upcoming changes that will be effecting Enhancement Shaman. There's not a ton of huuuge ones, save for the changes to Searing Totem and Lava Lash, but the one that's slightly bothered me was the fact that we're going to be stacking Agility. Now, anyone who's known me for any amount of time, and has looked at my gear, has known that I've been an Agi stacker for most of this expansion. Yes, even though for the longest time AP, AP/Haste, or pure Haste were the fads. I loved my Agi. I even had a few Haste gems in there just to be able to keep up, but most of my red sockets had my beloved Agility in there somewhere. A month or so ago I finally started to play around on Rawr. I knew that I was over the melee crit cap once I had a proc or two pop (unbuffed), so I started to tinker with the idea of going more of an AP and heavy Haste route. This had Sim'd out pretty decently, and showed a rather decent increase in potential DPS numbers. Convinced that this would help improve my in game DPS (I was looking for a few new pretty numbers, since raiding has become something on the far back burner due to computer issues, and I was feeling adventurous), I spent the money to get AP/Haste and Haste gems. Honestly, I wasn't floored by the results any, and almost feels as if though I've had a DPS decrease, instead of the apparent increase I was supposed to have. Now I find out that we'll be stacking Agility once again thanks to Attack Powers more or less demise in the gemming world, and I'm kind of sad that I had diverted from what I've always preferred. Oh well I suppose. At least I have Armor Pen being converted into Crit to look forward to!! Yes, I'm verrrrry excited about this. I can finally stop being so damn picky about gear!
RIP Magma Totem, hello to Searing being useful, and new talent trees!!! (Indoor Ghost Wolf, I approve.)
Also on the note of change, I'm looking forward to and yet a bit saddened to see ArP going away for my Druid. Armor Penetration was such a delicious stat as a Feral cat. She's currently ArP capped with her trinket proccing, so despite her not being geared to the teeth, she pulls some rather nice numbers. Thankfully she only has 5 gems that will need switching once this next patch goes live, but it will still be a bit of a sad day.
Upside of this incoming patch though for cats is Skull Bash. An instant interrupt that doesn't require combo points like Maim?!?! Thank you Blizz!!! While this has some nice practical uses in PvE, I can see this being incredibly useful in PvP. I'm really hoping that I have some luck with my computer issues soon, because I really can't wait to be able to hit the battlegrounds and Skull Bash some fools in.
The cat feral druids don't seem to have a whole lot of change coming up in this next patch, save for easier talent trees (sooo much easier than the mess we had before, trying to sort which were cat talents, which were bear, which were useful to both, etc). The only change that I may find strange at first is the fact that Savage Roar is apparently not so much of a priority. This will be a rather hard, yet somewhat welcome, habit to break. Honestly, I've been playing a little Rogue lately, and I keep wanting to use Savage Roar. Yes, it really is that much of an obsessive habit. I really like how that even though they're dumbing down talent trees a bit, the Feral Cat will still be the king of juggling bleed timers and energy. I think my biggest love of cat DPS comes from its complexity, and from the fact that if you can master this complexity, you do very well as a cat. If you don't, you often find yourself going Resto or Boomkin.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with kitty DPS, here's a handy chart.
It's really not all THAT hard ; )
As far as other class changes are concerned, I've really only peaked at a few changes. The new Shadow/Disco changes for Priests look kinda fun. Learning how to use Hunter focus may be something I save for a really rainy day (though come on bigger stables! I want an army of Hunter pets!!!). Warlock changes are...interesting. I'm not sure if I'm sold on the new Demonology set up, so I might end up going back to Affliction. I may end up tinkering with my Warlock once I get the Shaman and Druid settled.
So yes, a lot is changing, yet just enough is staying the same to help make at least a few things seem recognizable. It should be fun to have such a large change...or it may just end up being a huge pain in the behind. Guess we'll find out soon enough!

Some unintended consequences in the "War on Drugs": murderous gangs who lay waste to whole towns.
On the other side, a brutal war between drug gangs has forced dozens of fearful families from the Mexican town of El Porvenir to come to the border seeking political asylum, and scores of other Mexicans have used special visas known as border-crossing cards to flee into the United States. They say drug gangs have laid waste to their town, burning down houses and killing people in the street.
Americans are taking in their Mexican relatives, and the local schools have swelled with traumatized children, many of whom have witnessed gangland violence, school officials say.
"It's very hard over there," said Vicente Burciaga, 23, who fled El Porvenir a month ago with his wife, Mayra, and their infant son after gang members burned down five homes in their neighborhood and killed a neighbor. "They are killing people over there who have nothing to do with drug trafficking," he said. "They kill you just for having seen what they are doing."
Now, it occurs to me that if you decriminalize "drugs", the people who trade in them can take advantage of a modern judiciary to settle their disputes instead of simply killing each other.
Iraq Elections: US Chooses its Favorite
It looks as though our trusty client Maliki will come out ahead in the 2010 Iraqi elections after all, if this McClatchy dispatch is any indication. Carrying out long-standing political discrimination against the disgraced Ba'ath party, six major candidates will lose their votes and seats, costing Allawi (another US client) his victory. The six candidates committed the awful crime of having been associated with the Ba'ath party before the US invasion:
Six winning candidates in Iraq elections will be stripped of their votes and lose their seats – which would cost secular politician Iyad Allawi's bloc its narrow victory – if a federal court upholds a broad purge of candidates who are suspected of past involvement with the late dictator Saddam Hussein's outlawed Baath Party, Iraqi officials said Monday.
What's most appalling about this development is not that the Iraqis had to choose between two pro-occupation candidates, but that Ahmad Chalabi is in charge of the so-called 'de-baathification", and thus in a position to unilaterally decide who can and cannot contest elections in Iraq. Chalabi, you must remember, was a major architect of the 2003 invasion, and went so far as to provide fake intelligence to convince Bush to bomb Baghdad. Astoundingly, Chalabi also contested the 2010 Iraqi Elections, while retaining the power to disqualify candidates at will. (Unsurprisingly, he won re-election.)
Aram Roston has written several excellent articles detailing Ahmad Chalabi's crucial role in the Iraq invasion, and his 2008 article in The Nation entitled "Chalabi's lobby" is a must read. Why Chalabi is still in such a powerful position after the Senate Intelligence Committee determined he had (in their words) "attempted to influence United States policy on Iraq by providing false information" is totally beyond me.
Somewhere in the bowels of the Pentagon, some master brain or another must have decided that the US would rather have Maliki in the Prime Minster's seat rather than Allawi, and gave the order to Chalabi (who has been collaborating with the US Department of War since the '90s) to disqualify such-and-such candidates to make Maliki come out on top.
The truth is, it doesn't really matter – not to the Iraqis, anyway. Either Allawi or Maliki would have carried out US policy like the obedient servants they are. Whoever won, the Iraqis would still be saddled with a long-term occupation force of 50,000, their oil would still have gone up on the international market, with no chance of nationalizing it, and their elections would continue to be rigged in favor of the US – just as this one was.
When they said we'd be bringing "democracy" to Iraq, I'm sure our leaders meant "US-style democracy". You know, the kind where the electorate chooses between two candidates with identical policies and who are funded by the same corrupt sources. Just like we have it here!
Fallujah Sees Dramatic Rise in Birth Defects After US Battle
From the BBC:
We went to a house where three children, all under six, were suffering from birth defects.
Two boys were partially paralysed, and their sister clearly had serious brain damage.
Like all the other parents we spoke to, their mother had no doubt that the American attacks were responsible.
Outside, a man who had heard we were there had brought his four-year-old daughter to show us. She had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot.
She was also suffering from a number of other serious health problems. The father told us that the house where they still lived had been hit by an American shell during the fighting in 2004.
There may well be a link with drinking-water, especially in al-Julan.
After the fighting was over, the rubble from the town was bulldozed into the river bank, and most people in this area get their water from the river.
Six Largest US Banks Own 63 Percent of GDP
A startling statistic buried within an outstanding New Republic article:
As a result of the crisis and various government rescue efforts, the largest six banks in our economy now have total assets in excess of 63 percent of GDP (based on the latest available data). This is a significant increase from even 2006, when the same banks' assets were around 55 percent of GDP, and a complete transformation compared with the situation in the United States just 15 years ago, when the six largest banks had combined assets of only around 17 percent of GDP. If the status quo persists, we are set up for another round of the boom-bailout-bust cycle that the head of financial stability at the Bank of England now terms a "doom loop."
Good god. I knew that these banks were big, but I had no idea they were this big. The New Republic devotes the rest of its article to explaining why Obama's bank regulations are (surprise!) a sham. But then, we should have already known that. When Treasury Secretary Geithner appeared on Newshour a few days ago, he baldly stated that these new regulatory rules "will not include breaking up the banks". Forgive me, but what is the point of "regulation" if our banks are allowed to keep their "too big to fail" status and continue to engage in the same practices that brought down our economy in 2008? The so-called Volcker rules do nothing to stymie the relationship between Wall Street and Washington, they do nothing to prevent banks from over-leveraging (as they had during the run-up to the crisis), they allow the banks to retain their gargantuan size… so what were the Volcker rules supposed to do again? Oh yeah, it bans "proprietary trading", somthing which only accounts for 5 percent of total bank revenue.
Meanwhile, President Obama is proposing yet another giveaway to the banks, this time in the form of $30 billion in loans at below-market interest rates. If I sell you something about below-market value, then I'm giving you a gift. That's what these "loans" are. The Washington Post attempts to bury the issue in the middle of the piece, and refers to the subsidy as going to "community banks", without noting that most of these "community banks" have long since been bought up by our banking behemoths.
I don't really know what else to say here. The banks own Congress; they own the House; they own Obama (check out his campaign donors) – there doesn't seem to be any way out of this. I think some mobs with torches and pitchforks would not go amiss at this point.
Banks Bet Hard Against Greek Debt They Sold
The Times continues its reporting on the Greek crisis:
Echoing the kind of trades that nearly toppled the American International Group, the increasingly popular insurance against the risk of a Greek default is making it harder for Athens to raise the money it needs to pay its bills, according to traders and money managers.
These contracts, known as credit-default swaps, effectively let banks and hedge funds wager on the financial equivalent of a four-alarm fire: a default by a company or, in the case of Greece, an entire country. If Greece reneges on its debts, traders who own these swaps stand to profit.
"It's like buying fire insurance on your neighbor's house — you create an incentive to burn down the house," said Philip Gisdakis, head of credit strategy at UniCredit in Munich.
Fabulous. So let me see if I have this straight: our banks sold Greece predatory loans which they knew Greece would never be able to repay – then they took out "insurance" on those loans, effectively betting against Greece's solvency. Heads they win; tails Greece loses. It's important to note that this is the exact same behavior they indulged in during the sub-prime fiasco. They sold loans to people whom they knew would never be able to pay them back, and then bet that those loans would default. If, by some miracle, the debtor was able to pay these banks back, they'd get a nice interest rate. If, as the banks bet, the debtor couldn't pay them back, they'd get re-imbursed via the Credit Default Swaps. It's a classic win-win for the banks – and a lose-lose for whatever poor sucker they entrapped.
Only now its happening on the level of entire countries. I want to stress that Greece is neither the first nor the last nation to default on account of the malfeasance of US banks. Iceland came before it, and Spain, Ireland, or even France are likely to come afterward.
It is clear that our banks are purely malevolent forces, who benefit only from the destruction of others, and that, for the sake of the world economy, they must be thoroughly audited and broken up. And it is equally clear that this will never happen.
Trillions to Burn?
(c/o Kevin Drum)
The Project for Defense Alternatives has just put up its 2011 guide to Pentagon spending, entitled Trillions to Burn – complete with nine handy charts which excruciatingly detail the United States' military dominance of the world. We will be hearing a lot in the coming months about the US budget deficit – how this or that proposal will be "unfeasible" because of its budgetary implications, or how we must reduce social spending (via education, social security, medicare, etc.) in order to show "fiscal responsibility". Just know that all of those statements are hogwash and bullshit (or hogshit, if you like).
In reality, the single biggest contributor to the United States budget deficit is so-called "defense spending". We spend upwards of $5000 per second in Iraq (source) and spend a similar amount per unit time in Afghanistan. This spending does nothing for anybody. It does not make us "more safe", it does not help these impoverished people "achieve democracy", and it certainly hasn't made oil any cheaper. The only thing – and I do mean the only thing – it does is transfer the nation's wealth from the taxpayer to a select group of war profiteers.
That's it. That's all our "defense spending" does. The next time you hear some "Republican" or "Democrat" spout off about how we need to spend this money in order to "defeat our enemies", check to see who their campaign contributors are (via OpenSecrets), and ask yourself if these people would still be our "enemies" if we weren't spending the equivalent of South Korea's GDP every year attempting to bomb them out of their homes. Remember the Fort Hood shooter, who specifically stated that his motivation was outrage over US massacres of Iraqi and Afghan civilians? Or the so-called "shoe bomber" who similarly claimed he was compelled to attack the US because of its ongoing support for Israeli atrocities in Gaza? (Aid to Israel = "Defense spending", in the eyes of our budget office). Osama bin Laden himself, assuming he was responsible for 9/11, repeatedly cited the US occupation of Saudi Arabia and its continued 'aid' to Israel as his primary beefs with the United States.
It is clear that the gargantuan sums of money we allocate for 'defense' have precisely the opposite of their intended effect. That we should spend our time squabbling over whether or not health care reform should "add to the deficit" demonstrates just how far removed from reality our discourse has become. Anyone who claims to worry about the deficit yet still thinks we need to prosecute our foreign adventures is either an idiot or in the pay of our 'defense contractors'. Either way, we should all benefit from their swift and timely death.
US Escalates Aggression in Iran
The Obama administration is accelerating the deployment of new defenses against possible Iranian missile attacks in the Persian Gulf, placing special ships off the Iranian coast and antimissile systems in at least four Arab countries, according to administration and military officials.
Military officials said that the countries that accepted the defense systems were Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Kuwait. They said the Kuwaitis had agreed to take the defensive weapons to supplement older, less capable models it has had for years. Saudi Arabia and Israel have long had similar equipment of their own.
He also described a first line of defense: He said the United States was now keeping Aegis cruisers on patrol in the Persian Gulf at all times. Those cruisers are equipped with advanced radar and antimissile systems designed to intercept medium-range missiles. Those systems would not be useful against Iran's long-range missile, the Shahab 3, but intelligence agencies believe that it will be years before Iran can solve the problems of placing a nuclear warhead atop that missile.
It's important to remember that in the mouths of our "military planners", words have a tendency to mean their opposite. Thus, "defensive" means "aggressive"; "defense systems" mean "offensive weapons platforms" and "deterrence" means "coercion". With that in mind, the true designs of the United States become evident.
Iran, you see, is not allowed to have nuclear weapons – or even peaceful nuclear power plants. Only the United States is mature enough to decide who can and cannot be "trusted" with nuclear weapons. Iran, naturally, doesn't consider this legitimate or fair. So to "protect" themselves from the Iranian "threat", the US sets up umpteen missile bases all along Iran's border and arms its neighbors to the teeth. For "defense', you see.
It's also worth mentioning that "missile defense" is error-prone, unreliable and impracticable. There is no technology capable of reliably shooting a missile out of the sky. None. The real point of setting up "missile defense" systems on Iran's border is for offense – to have a quick button we can push if Iran further incurs our displeasure.

Our Manchester terrier "bubba" is the perfect farm dog, perfectly suited to dig for gophers and chase rabbits and Deer from the Olive trees. Originally breed in England to help rid the city of there rat problems in the 18th century the brown and black terrier was named in 1860 after the city of Manchester England, which was a breeding center at the time. Rat hunting was a sport in the 1800's and the breed was nicknamed " the gentleman's terrier" .I can attest to the fighting spirit of this breed that is known for being able to stand up to an opponent twice his size. The standard breed stands 14 to 16 inches, weighs more than 12 pounds but does not exceed 22 pounds , and has erect or folded (button) ears. There is a toy version of the breed that does not exceed 12 pounds.
The Manchester terrier breed is a descendant of the whippet a racing dog. Olive trees are beautiful, but I have to say that, seeing this dog open up and run full speed thru the olive trees and up the terraces is one of the joys of my life. Bubba will get his 18lb body air borne as he leaps from terrace to terrace, sometimes his back legs travel thru the air faster than the front legs and he lands at an angle, but he is made to run and it does not slow him down at all.I have to say that he seems to be enjoying running thru the olive trees as much as I like watching him, graceful is an understatement.
"Chicks Dig Me"
We inherited this dog when he was 9 months and he is now a year old. This breed is smart, and intuitive while very good natured, for example if he is chewing on a bone, he will let us take it from him. This dog is full of character and personality, he gets cranky in the evening after running at the farm all day.

"Freeze, style police- we have Miu Miu Pistols and we aren't afraid to show them."
Oh yes, the Miu Miu Pistol pumps have arrived on the scene, people, and they are everything we thought they would be and more. If you are looking for a serious statement this season, look no further, as throwing on these pistol pumps will cause quit a stir. Only, if you want to get your hands on the Miu Miu pistol flat you will have to be a quick draw as these little beauties are selling out fast. They're sure to be a hit at the shows this September, even if traditionally flats at fashion week are usually a no-no. But, we're thinking for Miu Miu, exceptions will be made.

Happy New Year!
We are looking forward to 2016 and want to share some news and plans. Many of these plans focus on three areas. First, we are expanding our pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) services as part of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the San Francisco Department of Public Health's Getting to Zero-related initiatives. Second, we are seeking to further develop our LGBTQ mental health services. Third, we are being more proactive than ever in responding to requests for proposals and creative fundraising approaches to fuel these crucial areas of growth. With your support, we can help people help themselves, ease mental health suffering, and change lives:
- In response to AHP's proposal, the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) has selected our HIV Counseling and Testing Program as one of three PrEP navigator services in the city!
- We have responded to two more SFDPH Requests for Proposals: one to provide HIV-informed hepatitis C screening and linkage; the other to address binge drinking.
- We submitted a California Reducing Disparities Project proposal that would fund LGBTQ support groups for five years. We will learn in March if AHP has been selected for funding.
- The AHP Gender Team has taken on a role within the agency and the community as a consultation group offering direct client care and education. We continue to grow that section of our LGBTQ mental health services.
- Our Provider Training and Education Unit, in collaboration with the the Center for AIDS Prevention Studies and Center of Excellence for Transgender Health is entering the third year of a CDC-funded UCSF Capacity-Building Assistance Partnership, providing HIV prevention technical assistance and training to community-based organizations across the country.
- The 20th Annual Art for AIDS will be held on September 16, 2016. Thanks to everyone's hard work, Art for AIDS 2015 grossed $325,000 and netted $250,000. AHP also continues to benefit from smaller fundraiser, such as, House Parties put on by donors, fundraisers at the Powerhouse bar and donations to the Community Thrift Store. On October 8 & 9, 2016 at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, AHP will be the beneficiary of World Doctors Orchestra performances with soloist Jospeh Allesi, principle trombonist for the New York Philharmonic. Finally, AHP will form another AIDS Walk Team this year, and we are already counting our steps to prepare for this incredible event. Join us on July 17, 2016. Thanks to all of our walkers and fundraisers, the AHP Team raised nearly $30,000 in 2015!
As we continue to serve our clients, we hope that you will join us. Come to a workshop; enlist in the Art for AIDS Host Committee; volunteer; and donate. We appreciate each and every person who travels with us on the path to providing the highest quality services to our clients and helping us remain a major voice in HIV and LGBTQ behavioral health.
Happy 2016 from all of us at AHP!

Director: Stanley Donen
Larry Parks, Elizabeth Taylor, Josephine Hutchinson, Tom Tully, Ann Doran, Elinor Donahue, Kathleen Freeman, Doreen McCann, Alex Gerry
The young Elizabeth Taylor looks gorgeous. But she wears an unbecoming hairstyle. I have read about Larry Parks but never before this seen him in anything. I am very sympathetic to the tribulations he endured as a result of HUAC. Nevertheless, in this movie, he turns in such a sour, uninterested performance, he sinks the movie. Not that there is much to sink. Taylor, yes. And Tom Tully, droll as her father. However, the ploy is negligible. And, as she plays a dancing teacher, we see dancing children. I love children but not here! The ostensibly cute dance scenes we have to watch wouldn't make it into a small town talent contest. Maybe MGM was trying to figure out what to do with Taylor, no longer the child of "National Velvet." Thankfully, we have her earlier movies and many, many later ones.

Cheap Nike Air Max 87 Shoes Womens White/Blue/Red/Green Sale
2012 Nike Air Max Shoes at Low Price
The huge commercial opportunities and profits have attracted lots of businessmen to trade Nike shoes to folks from the world. As well as the intense competition through this example has result in promotion sales of air max 90 shoes today. The customers become crazy about the lower and lower expense of these shoes and they are wanting to purchase them without having focus on their quality. Probably, by words of countless online stores, their Nike footwear is authentic, whilst in fact, whenever you obtain the shoes, you may well be disappointed, for sometimes, those shoes in online shops are fake ones. In this situation, it would be a little annoying to barter using the sellers. Therefore, for patrons, before you make your choice of shopping for Nike shoes in web shops, another thing is vital, that is, guarantee the top quality of these Nike shoes in websites. Or, whatever you must be met with will likely be just dropping these sneakers or making continue consultation together with the sellers.

Next, identify the packing box from the shoes. In most cases, the packing boxes for your counterfeit Nike footwear is also fake ones, as opposed to original ones. Sometimes, there would be described as a shoe box to the counterfeit Nike shoes, while regarding box, issues presents to get rather brittle. However, created by sturdy and cardboard, the first packing boxes for genuine Nike shoes are fairly strong.
The next step is always that it is recommended to bend the soles. Nike company adopts BRS 1000 rubber to make the soles and this material resembles much the rubber in elements of appearance, feeling and smell. Anyway, these soles may not be discovered to be alike with plastic.
Then, search for the bleeding or faded color. Occasionally, bleeding produced by the red Jordan symbol about the tongue's tab from the counterfeit Jordan shoes will show up about the fabric surrounding it. Furthermore, regarding the fabric colors around the shoes; in addition they are faded on counterfeit ones. While for authentic Nike shoes, there'll never exist faded or bleeding colors.

The last step is check the coloring ways in the shoes. You'll be able to hunt for the styles, color schemes as well as any other information on genuine Nike shoes and make up a comparison using the shoes you want to buy..

The age old adage that "leaders are readers" still rings true today, and it may even ring more true today than it ever used to in the past. joosr guide
You see, we reside in the middle of a ridiculously competitive world filled with more details than any of us might ever wish to consume in 10 lifetimes, let alone one life time. On top of that, the younger generations are ending up being a growing number of savvy from a technological viewpoint– and a lot of them are discovering the best ways to take advantage of advanced solutions and whatever that the web is evolving into in manner ins which some of us are having a hard time to keep up with.
At the exact same time, however, nonfiction books– particularly the years very popular titles— offer a significant quantity of insight, an incredible quantity of info, and a remarkable quantity of inspiration that anybody would be insane not to take advantage of.
But with so many titles readily available on an annual basis it's ended up being nearly impossible to maintain, specifically if you're aiming to take in nonfiction titles throughout a broad series of interests and classifications.
Of course, that's where Joosr comes into play.
A game changing brand-new option that provides people with all of the info they need to much better understand the world around them through the best-selling titles in the nonfiction world across a broad spectrum of interests, Joosr offers you with bite sized summaries and condensed highlights of a number of bestsellers to make sure that you constantly know exactly what's going on without you needing to spend hours and hours every week ripping through these oftentimes enormous titles.
The Joosr platform deals with your Android and iOS gadgets, fits your schedule, and offers you with the ability to learn at your own pace with the assistance of summaries supplied by professionals across all nonfiction classifications.
Complete and total control of all these amazing book summaries
The most amazing thing about the Joosr platform and the Joosr Android and iOS applications in specific is the capability for these applications to supply you with the details and insights you're looking for anywhere and everywhere you may find yourself on the planet.
While you will have to be connected to the internet (through Wi-Fi or your mobile data plan, it makes no distinction) to download the Joosr summaries the very first time that you are getting ready to read them, as soon as they have actually been downloaded to your gadget they are going to live within the Joosr application and can be brought up to check out regardless of whether you're linked to the internet any longer.
On top of that, you'll be able to pick from any of the more than 250+ titles readily available in the Joosr library– a handful of them or all them, if you like– to entirely manage and self-direct your education.
You end up being the captain of your ship, benefiting from the information contained within these summaries to learn more about your career fields, your occupation, your market, or other nonfiction location of life that you are interested in.
It's tough to beat having this sort of library in your pocket anywhere and at any time you wish to find out.
Community discussions add to these summaries
While the 250+ titles that have actually already been reviewed on the Joosr platform are going to provide you with a lot more insight and a lot more understanding into the specific areas of interest you are focused on (something that nearly every Joosr review speaks highly of), the real "unique feature" of the Joosr application and the Joosr platform in general is the more than 40,000 strong reader neighborhood that is actively participating in neighborhood discussions of the books readily available.
That's right– when you register for the Joosr platform you are going to be motivated and welcomed to get in on the conversation about any of the titles that you have an interest in. Not just are you going to be able to more effectively and effectively consumed the knowledge consisted of within these best-selling titles, but you're also going to be able to share your insights, ask your questions, and find out through cooperation with other readers straight through the Joosr set up.
This is an unique feature that none of the other book summary options out there supply, and it's a huge reason that many individuals opt to make the most of all that Joosr needs to provide versus the competition.
How does Joosr stack up against the competition?
There are a number of different "huge names" worldwide of digital book summaries, but the greatest need to be the Joosr platform, the Instaread platform, and the Blinkist platform. Every one of these solutions have their pros and cons, along with their raving enthusiasts and their greatest critics, but many feel that the supreme competitors boils down between Joosr VS Blinkist.
Both of these platforms have a comparable library offered, both of them have easy to use and properly designed mobile applications for Android and iOS devices, and both of them have some of the very best book summary authors working double-overtime to broaden the quantity of titles readily available to the neighborhood. joosr guide
Inning accordance with most Joosr evaluations, however, it's the neighborhood sharing and community collaboration features in Joosr that separate this specific book summary platform from the remainder of the pack– and it's easy to see why as soon as you jump right in.
Final Verdict
All things thought about, you need to do your level best to make the most of your time in this ultra competitive world. There's just inadequate time to spend hours and hours every week reading the latest nonfiction bestsellers, and there's no way that you 'd have the ability to keep up with this year's list of bestsellers let alone the very popular titles from years gone by.
Utilize the Joosr platform to speed up your consumption of information and knowledge, make the most of these efficient and collaborative notes and summaries, and utilize the community to the best of your abilities and you'll be off to the races.

So when Dana and I chose to postpone our Asia trip until fall, we decided a shorter vacation was in order so that we had something to look forward to this summer.
Eventually, we settled on the South of France. Sunshine, beaches, great food, endless rosé... it had #adventuresofJayNa written all over it.
Because we only had a limited amount of time available, we elected to fly directly from JFK to Nice, France using credit card points. (Chase Sapphire Preferred FTW). We basically boarded the plane, ate dinner, drank some wine, went to sleep, and woke up in France. Seven hours on a red eye and we were there and ready for four and a half days of adventure in the French Riviera.
Oui s'il vous plaît!
The Principality of Monaco is a city state, meaning it's actually its own country. It's the second smallest country in the world, and the most densely populated in the world. It's also one of the richest. In 2014, it was noted that 30% of the population is made up of millionaires. Soooo yeah. Get ready for some insane people watching and be prepared to drop some cash. However, we felt like it was on par with New York City in terms of prices for things. (Not that New York is cheap, but at least we were used to it.)
That said... when in Rome... er... Monaco... arrive by helicopter. You probably think we're ridiculous, but hear me out. I looked into all potential forms of transportation, and not only was this the most bad-ass way to start our vacation, it also just made the most sense. A taxi would have taken an hour, and probably would've cost at least 100€ or more. We didn't want to rent a car. The train doesn't go to the airport, so public transportation would've required a bus to Nice, and then a train to Monaco, and then a cab to the hotel... probably taking 2 hours or more. So a 7 minute helicopter ride with stunning views and a luxury Mercedes van to whisk us away to our hotel seemed like a no-brainer for 145€ (especially when our other flights were essentially free). They run about 40 flights per day so you should have no trouble finding one that works for you. If your inbound flight arrives late or you get stuck in customs, no worries. They will automatically book you on the next helicopter. The check-in desk is located just outside baggage claim in Terminal 2 between A2 & A3. You can book directly online. And if you need any further convincing... just check out the video I posted on Instagram: (hover your cursor to press play)
Like I said, no brainer.
Fairmont Monte Carlo
As you might imagine, one of the richest cities in the world is home to some of the most expensive accommodations in the world as well. Fortunately, I'm always on the lookout for a good deal, and snagged an awesome flash sale at the Fairmont Monte Carlo for several hundreds of dollars less than the other luxury hotels in the area. For 350€ per night, our package included a welcome glass of champagne upon arrival, continental breakfast served poolside each morning and a large room overlooking a courtyard (ocean views would've been more.) Breakfast alone would've been around 50€ per day for two people, not to mention the champagne, so I felt like this was a great deal! The hotel is also conveniently located just a short walk from the Monte Carlo Casino and Square, as well as several clubs and restaurants. It's also situated on the famous hairpin turn during the Monte Carlo Grand Prix.
But let's be real. The main draw to this hotel is Nikki Beach Club, the gorgeous pool perched atop the hotel, looking out over the Mediterranean. It was also the perfect way to spend our first day in Monaco after our red eye flight. They offer bottle service and cabanas poolside, but we opted to "slum" it over in the normal sun beds for free, which were perfectly fine! (They can fill up quickly though, so don't wait too long to grab chairs). They offer food and drink service all day and night, but as you can imagine, the prices reflect your surroundings. That said, the "frites" that came with our 28€ club sandwich might be the best fries of my life. (I was also starving, so take that for what it's worth).
Fairmont Restaurants & Casino:
There are also two other restaurants on the hotel property worth checking out: l'Horizon Deck and Nobu. We didn't eat dinner at either, but both offer a pretty nice happy hour each night from 6-8pm that we stopped in at on our way to dinner. l'Horizon Deck does 50% off champagne during happy hour, and Nobu does 50% off all drinks. We also ordered an appetizer at each and were obsessed with the bread and butter at l'Horizon Deck. (Also... do yourself a favor and get the crispy rice with spicy tuna at Nobu. You won't regret it.) Additionally, the hotel has a casino on site (Sun Casino) if you'd like to do some gambling and don't want to do it at the Monte Carlo casino.
Casino de Monte Carlo & Monaco Nightlife
Speaking of the iconic Casino, you should at the very least walk by, snap some photos, check out the fancy cars parked out front and do some people watching. After our pool day, we walked around Casino Square, and stopped off at Cafe de Paris for a glass of rosè to take everything in and enjoy the scene and the sunshine. We had every intention of going back at night to actually gamble, but our second evening took us elsewhere and had way more fun anyways with our new German friends. (Plus, we had already gambled at the Fairmont on night one). But if you do decide to go, make sure you have your passport and know it will cost 10€ just to get inside. (Since it's technically a tourist attraction in addition to being a casino, they charge an entrance fee.)
As for clubs and bars, definitely check out Buddha Bar for drinks (they have food as well), especially if you are staying at the Fairmont, as it's basically next door. Twiga is also very close to the Fairmont on the water open until 2am (you can see it in my first photo of the hotel). Others that were recommended but we never made it to: Jimmy'z (same hotel as Blue Bay Restaurant, below) and Sass.
Blue Bay Restaurant
Monte Carlo is also home to some world class dining, so we knew we wanted to check out one of the high end restaurants that offer a tasting menu. I made reservations at three different spots (I love having options), but we ended up going with Blue Bay on our first night in Monaco. We liked the fact that it offered a trendy, seaside dining atmosphere and it was also the cheapest of the three. It has one Michelin star, and is in the top 2-3 restaurants recommended by travelers on Trip Advisor. Their 5-course tasting menu is more like 8 or 9 courses once you factor in amuse bouche, bread, desserts, etc and it will only run you 88€. (This quality of food would cost WAY more in New York).
Blue Bay boasts modern French/Mediterranean cuisine with a heavy focus on seafood. We were served things like fish gelee soup with a potato coriander emulsion (top, second from the left) or chicken smoked with sugar cane and fresh coconut (top right). It's about a mile down the road from the Fairmont... you can walk if you aren't wearing heels, but we opted for a local bus that only cost us 2 euro each way. (Just don't try to take a cab at dinnertime... the valet people will laugh at you. Apparently taxi's are not super plentiful in Monte Carlo.)
The other two restaurants I made reservations at but didn't have a chance to visit:
-Le Louis XV-Alain Ducasse (3 michelin stars, #1 Trip Advisor, located in Hotel de Paris)
Il Terrazzino:
Our second night we were craving some hole in the wall Italian food, and Il Terrazzino fit the bill perfectly. (BTW... You'll notice a lot of Italian food in this region, even at non-Italian restaurants due to the proximity to Italy.) I remembered seeing the high reviews on Trip Advisor, and we spotted it when we were waiting for our bus to Èze (more on that next). One piece of advice: show up hungry. You will be served a ridiculous amount of food. They do offer items a la carte, but the real value here is to do the prix fixe menu.
It's only 45€ and you will get endless (or so it seemed) antipasti. I actually took photos of everything and considered including them all in the photo collage above, but the photos ended up being so small because there was SO. MUCH. FOOD. Bruschetta, octopus, ricotta, burrata, salami, cheese, carpaccio, vegetables... just to name a few. Once you've basically tapped out on antipasti, they will then bring you three family-style plates of pasta, all house made. The raviolis stuffed with ricotta and served with a simple marinara sauce sound so basic, but they might be our favorite raviolis of our life. Dana forced herself to eat the final two so as not to leave any behind. (I told her she was my hero.) We insisted they not bring dessert but they did anyways. A plate of cannolis, a plate of pastries and a giant bowl of fruit salad. We. Were. Stuffed.
When we mentioned we were doing the French Riviera, several people recommended we take a day trip to Èze. It's a magical little medieval village perched high atop a hill. We LOVED it. Èze was, without question, one of the highlights of our trip and was a nice change of pace from Monaco.
To get to Èze from Monaco:Walk to Cremaillere bus stop (about 10 minute walk from the Fairmont hotel), take the 112 bus to Èze village for just 1.50€. Our bus arrived about 10 minutes late, so don't freak out if you're there on time and it's not there yet. There's a little coffee shop near the stop if you arrive early. Morning buses to Eze from Monaco depart at: 8am, 9:55am, & 11:55am and it will only take you about 15 minutes to get to the base of the little village. (The bus goes all the way to Nice, so you can take the same bus if you are staying there. To check the full bus schedule, click here.)
Château Eza
There are two very highly rated restaurants in Èze: La Chevre D'or and Chateau Eza. Both boast stunning views and world class cuisine. I chose Chateau Eza because it was a little cheaper, and the reviews were just as spectacular. It was actually a little cloudy and misty the morning of our visit, but we didn't mind as it added to the charm and mystery of the place. However, during our incredible lunch, the clouds broke and we were treated to the most beautiful views from our little dining terrace. (And as a side note, both are located inside hotels if you plan on staying the night in Èze as opposed to doing a day trip.)
We arrived a little early (and in the rush to get to the bus stop on time had skipped breakfast so were also bordering on hangry.) They sat us on the bar terrace so we could at least order some rosé and they also brought us a couple small snacks. (Can you say GOAT CHEESE LOLLIPOPS?!?) Eventually, we moved down to our dining terrace that we only shared with one other table. They also brought us a little amuse-bouche tart stuffed with more goat cheese and served with a pea pesto. We had our eye on the cheese plate for dessert, so we only ordered two mains and it was the perfect amount of food. We got the seafood risotto and the duck with seared foie gras, polenta cake and vegetables. The cheese plate for 2 costs 40€, but if you like cheese, it's definitely worth it. All in all, when you factor in the wine (hands down our favorite of the trip), the food, the views, and the service... this was our favorite meal during the four days. Highly recommend Èze and this restaurant!
Next stop on our whirlwind France vacation: the beach town of Cannes. We heard wonderful things about Saint Tropez, but in the end, Cannes made the most sense with our limited amount of time. (Saint Tropez will have to wait for another time!)
To get to Cannes from Monaco:
The train to Cannes is just about an hour and is a beautiful journey along the coast. It was right around 20€ one way. To check the train schedule, or to book tickets, click here. (We simply bought ours at the Monaco train station after taking a cab from the hotel. The station is about a 15 minute taxi ride from the Fairmont.)
Hotel Le Cavendish
I'm always intrigued when small boutique hotels rank #1 or #2 on Trip Advisor, so I immediately was drawn to Hotel Le Cavendish. It's not right on the beach, but we were able to book a pre-paid room package that included beach access both days at a private beach club with towels and a beach bag included for your use for less than 200€ total per night (beach is about a 10-15 minute walk.) It's conveniently located about a five minute walk from the train station, and the beautifully appointed rooms make you feel like you've just stepped into a French film. (The private terrace was my fave!) Each booking also includes free continental breakfast, but it's WAY more extensive than the one we had in Monaco. Croissants, a yogurt bar, espresso drinks, cheeses, meats, hard boiled eggs, quiche... you will not leave breakfast hungry. And not to bury the lede, but the other major draw to this hotel... FREE HAPPY HOUR every night from 6-9pm. No seriously. Full bar, wine, beer, etc. It's served in the same room as breakfast, so it's not an actual bar per se that you would go to outside of happy hour, but this is a screamin' deal. We took advantage of this both nights of our stay before walking down to Le Suquet for dinner.
Le Beija Flor
Both nights in Cannes, we found our way to Le Suquet for dinner and drinks. It's the Old Town part of Cannes, with narrow little cobblestone streets and no shortage of restaurants and bars. It's exactly what you would imagine a small town in the South of France to be and we loved it. Following our day at the beach, we were craving some traditional French food. Dana really wanted French Onion soup, and I was in need of some moules frites (mussels and fries). We hit the jackpot with both at Le Beija Flor. We sat outside as people strolled by, enjoying our rosé and chatting with the adorable owner, Christophe. The mussels were Normandy-style from his grandfather Antoine and I was obsessed! I'm hoping to get the recipe from him so I can share here on the blog. We also had a seafood risotto and steak and stopped short of licking our plates clean.
On the recommendation of some UK girls sitting next to us, we also went to Le Jardin Secret for drinks after dinner and liked it so much we returned the next night. It's literally a little secret garden off one of the side streets and was a lovely place to sit outside and enjoy some wine. We also stopped in at Charly's Bar, which was lively and provided a fun scene on a Friday night. (It's also right next to Le Beija Flor.)
Iles de Lérins/Saint Marguerite & La Guerite Restaurant
While at Charly's Bar, we were lucky to meet our new Belgian friend Jan, who owns a sail boat and happened to be docked in Cannes for a few days. He invited us out on the boat the next day, along with his friend Axel who came down from Monaco. We sailed around, taking in the sunshine and multi-million euro yachts hanging out off the coast. We decided to sail over to Iles de Lérins/Saint Marguerite and have lunch at La Guerite Restaurant. We radioed over from the boat, and they sent a little shuttle boat to pick us up. Once there, you dine with your toes in the sand brushing elbows with multi millionaires (perhaps billionaires) and gazing out back across the bay to Cannes. The food is completely overpriced, but that said, still very delicious. I kept it simple with gnocchi, and was very glad I did. It's very easy to screw up gnocchi, but these were wonderful little pillows that virtually melted in my mouth and served with a simple but flavorful tomato sauce, basil and shaved Parmesan.
If you are not lucky enough to have a private sailboat, there is a ferry to take across to the Iles de Lérins, which is rated as the #1 thing to do in Cannes on Trip Advisor. Several reviewers recommend bringing picnic lunches and spend the day on the beach or visiting the castle. OR, if you do decide to dine at La Guerite, I believe they will shuttle you over if you have a reservation with the restaurant.
Forville Market:
Getting back to Nice airport from Cannes:
If you are returning to the airport from Cannes, there is an express shuttle bus that's super easy and fast. It took about 30-35 minutes, and you can grab it right in front of the train station. It's bus #210 and it runs every day, several times per day. A one-way ticket is 22€ and you can purchase it on board. For more information, click here.
All in all, it was a whirlwind 4.5 days, but so much fun and satisfied our travel bug until the next adventure!
Merci Beaucoup!

Every company I know is using Premiere. There is just one guy I know using FCPX.
Are you stuck on stupid? That was so 2011... Wake up! :roll eyes: There are many people making money using FCPX. Don't surround yourself with all the people who where to scared to learn something new and better. Its funny to see all the "everyone I know" comments. Yet they are probably the ones accusing everyone else of being sheeple. So you don't like it or are afraid of it. Don't put others down for choosing to us the best iteration of FCP to date. I've used it from day one, I am a certified pro and I use it daily in my studio so don't say I don't know. For those on the fence, I say dive in you won't look back!
I take it this is confirmation that J.J. Abrams has accepted a position at Apple?
Nah, they haven't talk about any extensive "lens flare" plugin, that would be the signal.
Looks... snazzy?
FCPX is the only NLE that can support true multi-cam 4K editing...
I've run 16 angles in 4k (not Proxy) with tons of layers, and no issues!
But, I would suggest a very fast SSD RAID. (Like BlackMagic's Muti-Dock)
I think I'll switch back from adobe premiere now. 3D text! Holy ballz!
Every company I know is using Premiere. There is just one guy I know using FCPX.Premiere?
With the cloud subscription and the very weak 4k support and function?
Ahhh. No thanks. I gave up on my typewriter as well...
The timeline in FCPX is just horrible. They want you to do things their way. I was transitioning from FCP7 to Premiere in a few hours. FCPX is good to do like something very quick but the file management is absurd. The TV station I was working on switched to Premiere, the other company I always work with are switched to Premiere too, both dumped FCPX right away. And I have been asked to go to Premiere specially because the integration with the creative cloud and the rest of the Adobe suit. Apple did a horrible job in dumping FCP7 in the way they did. They will never going to regain a shadow of the market they had before.You seem to be living in the past...
You are mentioning issues from the beta launch??

In a visit widely seen as an attempt to smooth relations between Pakistan and the US after the raid to kill Osama bin Laden two weeks ago, Sen. John Kerry called the two countries "strategic partners with a common enemy in terrorism" Monday.
Amid growing calls among US lawmakers to cut aid to Pakistan, suspected of harboring militants like Mr. bin Laden, Senator Kerry announced a series of steps he and Pakistan's civilian and military officials agreed upon to improve ties, and announced that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would also visit Pakistan shortly. Despite these measures, however, the relationship's underlying mistrust and duplicity are unlikely to change soon, warn analysts.
"You'll go from crisis to crisis, you'll hit rock bottom but pull through unless there is something really catastrophic, like another Times Square incident," says Moeed Yusuf, South Asia adviser at the US Institute of Peace in Washington.
The bin Laden raid left the public here outraged at a perceived violation of Pakistan's sovereignty, with Pakistan's opposition Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) party accusing the government of betraying its people. In a marathon 11-hour closed-door meeting of parliament last Friday, Lt. Gen. Shuja Pasha, head of the country's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) agency, angrily denounced the US to much applause from lawmakers. He also denied that his agency had willingly given shelter to the leader of Al Qaeda.
Monday evening Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, sought to assuage this anger, telling the media that Pakistan wasn't tipped off to the raid earlier for operational reasons only. "I have been deeply involved in the affairs of Pakistan and I didn't know until after I received a call from the situation room of the White House," he said.
Though he said that the US would not apologize for the raid, he also said that future operations in Pakistan would be conducted jointly. He then appealed to Pakistanis to decide whether their country would become a "haven for extremists or the tolerant democracy" envisioned at its creation in 1947, adding that the US is willing to help the country to that end.
Few experts, however, expect Pakistan's weak civilian government to redress the imbalance that exists between it and the powerful military establishment, which continues to maintain ties with some militant groups that routinely attack US forces, such as the Haqqani network based along its border with Afghanistan.
"Both countries will try to leverage the operational and tactical advantages it has, and neither country will undermine its own strategic interests," says Mosharraf Zaidi, a columnist, referring to support of the Haqqani network.
While both sides acknowledge this is a difficult relationship, the alternative appears too drastic to contemplate for now, says Mr. Zaidi. As long as the US has troops engaged in neighboring Afghanistan, the US needs Pakistan's support for vital military supply lines. Concurrently, Pakistan's inability to get its economy in order makes it dependent on US support for aid and the political support that allows it to get loans from the International Monetary Fund and World Bank.
"There is a patience threshold – with Pakistan it's much higher than with other countries but there is always a threshold. They would probably like to part ways and move on but both sides realise that complete rupture of the relationship would be victory for terrorists," says Yusuf, the analyst.
