(CNN) -- Arsenio Hall made history in the early '90s as the first national African-American late night TV talk show host.
Aimed at a hip, young demographic, "The Arsenio Hall Show" was famous for its trademark "woof woof" audience chant and never-know-who-might-stop-by guest list. The show ran from 1989 to 1994 and boasted memorable moments, some of which have become a part of pop culture lore: Bill Clinton playing the saxophone during the '92 campaign; Magic Johnson's first interview after being diagnosed with HIV; and Hall's tense show the night the Los Angeles riots broke out.
On Monday, nearly 20 years after his original run, the 57-year-old entertainer heads back to TV with a new show, "Arsenio." Where has he been? How will he carve out his own niche in a very crowed late night field that includes Leno, Fallon, Letterman, Kimmel and Stewart? To paraphrase a certain someone, "These are the things that make us go 'hmm.'"
CNN caught up with Hall at Hollywood's Sunset Bronson Studios on the set of the new show and got the inside scoop on his big return.
CNN: What have you been up to since we last saw you on late-night TV?
Arsenio Hall: I have been working hard in just a different element of life, trying to balance my own and do some things that are beyond show business and beyond rooms and (studio) lots like this.
I left this business for something I didn't even know I was seeking. I just knew it wasn't in my schedule from sun up to sun down in Hollywood. I left the show for probably balancing my life -- I wanted my relationships to be different. I wanted to be with my family and my woman. It was a point where I felt I don't want to leave this earth without a kid. There were a lot of things going on...
I want to do all those things that I wish my dad could have done with me. My mom and my dad worked very hard when I was young; I was a latch-key kid. I not only wanted to have a kid; I wanted to do it a certain way.
CNN: How will your new show be different from your late-night competitors?
Hall: The good thing about the second time around, there are people who know me, and those 35-year-olds can tell their children, but I'm about to jump back into the culture and I'm the same Arsenio and I just give a different persona to a late-night talk show.
Some will love it, some will hate it. But you look for people to choose you because of the questions you ask, because of the bookings you have, because of the comedy you do ... You're choosing what you want people to do with your public figures, your celebrities, your pop and hop stars. And everybody kind of knows what I do and how I do it, and I hope some people will join me for some nights.
CNN: Who's on your wish list for guests?
Hall: First of all, it's been very complicated booking the first show because I had to decide what I wanted it to be. On that show, I just want a fun return, a party. I just want laughter. No clips, no agendas, just friends and fun.
And then the second night on, I'll start to decide whether I need to talk to Chris Brown and whether I can have that kind of interview. One of my dream guests, one of my dream shows, I don't have to do this, it's been done. When I was home, it was these kinds of things that drove me crazy and made me tell my son, is it time for daddy to go back to work yet, every week?
I was watching Letterman, and he took his whole show on the roof of the Ed Sullivan Theater with Eminem and Jay-Z. Is that a show? Lord have mercy, that's the kind of TV I like.
CNN: Will President Obama be stopping by?
Hall: I don't want to be arrogant, so I'll give you the right answer. I will invite him, but he's done a lot in late night. I gotta get real creative to figure out what to do. He's slow-jammed the news, his wife's done the 'Dougie.' Maybe I'll go back to basics, maybe I just do a straight interview. But the bottom line, yeah, he'll be invited.
CNN: Any other dream guests?
Hall: I called (Bill Clinton) and I said, don't get nervous, I'm not asking a favor from you. But would your wife come out with a saxophone? That would be a move. If I walk out and then say, ooh one minute, grab a hand, and it's Hillary with a saxophone, it's on. Because that's also a special statement if she don't say nothing ... You know Hillary ain't gonna walk out with no saxophone. She might, but I said Bill Clinton wouldn't put on my sunglasses and play an Elvis tune and wear my tie and bring his wife and let her join him, and he said yes to all of that. So sometimes I've learned, ask.
CNN: On your old show, you weren't afraid to tear up the script and get serious when the news of the day was serious -- for instance, the night the 1992 L.A. riots broke out. Will that be the case on the new show?
Hall: I'm a stand-up comic doing a late-night talk show. But what I like to do in moments like that is bring in a person like Stevie Wonder as the musical guest, and you let Stevie do a number, but you know when we put Stevie on the couch, he'll give us a respectable response to that kind of situation ... I'm sure people, they want to be put to bed with a smile, but they also want me to touch on things that are going on. I'm not bright enough to handle it but there are plenty of guests who can.
CNN: You've been off the air for nearly 20 years. How do you introduce yourself to a young audience that's never seen the original show?
Hall: After I knew I was coming back and Tribune and CBS syndication had said yes it's a go, I immediately started going on everything. I even wrote an article for Newsweek on fatherhood.
I went on Tosh, I went on Chelsea (Handler), I went on Leno about 47 times, I went on Bill Maher's HBO show and did a segment on the 20th anniversary of the riots by the way. I tried to get my face out there and doing everything. When (Access Hollywood host) Billy Bush would take a vacation, I would call (Access Hollywood host) Kit Hoover and say y'all mind if I sit in for Billy? And I'll call Billy and say, if y'all cool with it. I was doing everything I could to get my face out and to show this town that I'm still a viable talking head in late night.
CNN: Why come back now?
Hall: It starts with your 13-year-old asking you to drop him off about five blocks from the movie theaters or the party he's going to. There's a certain point where you realize you can moonwalk away from fatherhood just a little bit. And I sat down and had a conversation with him. Because part of raising a kid -- to be a man, you have to see a man -- and part of raising a kid is to show him the other side of it too. I love fatherhood. I really love being a dad. But like last night, I fell asleep before he did with the remote in my hand. That's what a young man needs to see too. Hard work, tired.

Love this car!
By Jacky D. on Monday, May 14, 2018I feel like Im driving a 40,000.00 car! The SEL has all the comforts of a luxury sedan for half the price! This car moves so smoothly and quietly and the gas mileage is unbelievable.

Awesome car...
By CA-DRIVER on Thursday, January 18, 2018Recently hit 5000 miles in my 2018 Elantra Limited with the Ultimate package. I had a 2016 Elantra Limited and this new model is so much better in every way. Quieter ride, the bounciness of the rear suspension in the previous generation is fixed, infinity sound system sounds amazing, love the design of the LED tailights...theres just too many pros to list. The one and only con is the off the line torque. Its slow off the line because its not a GDI engine anymore but thats why I average 38mpg in combined city and highway so cant complain much about that. Once 40+mph is reached it can keep up with any other car in this class. I drive up and over the CA Grapevine every week and this engine easily goes up and over that tough highway with ease. If you want a comfortable daily driver this is the car for you. If you want something sporty, you will hate this car. This car is NOT sporty at all.

Great Car
By Fellanator on Saturday, July 01, 2017I got the Limited model and paid 17k. Hyundai must not be selling alot of these cars because I got over 6000 off msrp. The ride is great, and is very quiet for an economy car. The use of adhesives and thicker glass contribute to this. I primarily do highway driving and I average 43mpg. Overall an excellent vehicle for the money

Every season of The Bachelor has a resident "crazy" person. You know that desperate woman who feels she is the one for whomever the Bachelor is, and feels she is entitled to his time and affection.
Well folks, meet Michelle Kujawa, as she very well lived up well to that title this season. Michelle recently appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and talked about her time on the show, and feelings for Jake Pavelka.
Michelle told Ellen she'd return to the show if she had the chance but that "it's too late." At least she realizes it's too late.
The 26-year-old office manager, who threatened to leave the show twice before finally begging asking Jake to kiss her, which he reluctantly agreed to, opened up about that awkward kiss. "I was in it full force and I didn't feel anything back from him so why waste each other's time?" Michelle said.
When asked by Ellen is she thought Jake had made a mistake by sending her packing, she replied: "I think it would have been different if we had a one-on-one date because it is really hard to get to know somebody [on a] group date. It was like eight of us and it was the whole day and evening and I didn't even get to talk to him until that night."
Michelle however seems to have a sense of humor about her crazy appearance on the show, saying she can only "laugh" about how she was portrayed. "You have to expect something like that going into the show," she said. "They have to show drama."

Playing in Seattle usually brings the best out of the Seahawks and the worst out of the visiting team.
The Jets offense has certainly lived up to its end of the bargain, but the Seahawks offense hasn't been much better in the first half of Sunday's game. They have been better, though, and that's why Seattle has a 14-7 lead at the half.
Russell Wilson started the game with a long touchdown pass to Golden Tate and scrambled to the foot of the goal line to set up a Marshawn Lynch touchdown, which mitigates two turnovers that have kept the Jets within the striking distance. The Jets scored their touchdown when Muhammad Wilkerson scooped up a Wilson fumble, caused on a sack by Mike DeVito, and returned it 21 yards for a touchdown and Lynch also fumbled to give the Jets another chance to put points on the board.
They couldn't do it, though, as Mark Sanchez threw a brutal pass that Richard Sherman picked off at the goal line to end that scoring chance. Sanchez had Dustin Keller open for a moment (and had Stephen Hill open in the back of the end zone), but he threw the ball late and Sherman came up with what might have been a pick six if he didn't step out of bounds. Jeremy Kerley later muffed a punt to give the Seahawks the ball before Lynch was able to punch the ball in.
Sanchez was 5-of-14 for 65 yards in the first half and got sacked three times by an aggressive Seahawks defense. Wilson was 6-of-10 for 104 yards, numbers that look a bit better than the Seahawks' offense did for most of the first half. It was enough to get his team halfway home with a lead, though, so we imagine Pete Carroll will take more of the same in the second half.

Here is the theorem prover's output when it processes the defthm
command for the associativity of
app. We have highlighted text
for which we offer some explanation, and broken the presentation into
several pages. Just follow the Walking Tour after exploring the
ACL2!>(defthm associativity-of-app (equal (app (app a b) c) (app a (app b c))))
Name the formula above *1.
Perhaps we can prove *1 by induction. Three induction schemes are suggested by this conjecture. Subsumption reduces that number to two. However, one of these is flawed and so we are left with one viable candidate.
We will induct according to a scheme suggested by (APP A B). If we let (:P A B C) denote *1 above then the induction scheme we'll use is (AND (IMPLIES (AND (NOT (ENDP A)) (:P (CDR A) B C)) (:P A B C)) (IMPLIES (ENDP A) (:P A B C))). This induction is justified by the same argument used to admit APP, namely, the measure (ACL2-COUNT A) is decreasing according to the relation O< (which is known to be well-founded on the domain recognized by O-P). When applied to the goal at hand the above induction scheme produces the following two nontautological subgoals.

Candy, an arts event, a free showing of a Dr. Seuss movie and a chance to sample wine and craft beer in support of higher education are some of the high-profile things to do this weekend to brighten the winter blues in Harford County.
Though the annual Bel Air Chocolate and Candy Festival isn't until next weekend, a prelude event is planned for tonight (Friday) centered around the Bel Air Reckord Armory building on Main Street.
Doors open at 6 p.m. at the armory for the main event, a free showing of "The Lorax," the animated movie based on the Dr. Seuss storybook. In addition to there being no admission charge, it also includes free popcorn and treats.
Free movie night is billed as a prelude to the chocolate and candy festival, as is another event planned mostly on Main Street in the county seat from 5 to 8 p.m., a new Chocolate & Art Walk.
The walk features more than a dozen downtown Bel Air shops, boutiques and salons staying open late and hosting local artists in their businesses to display and sell their artwork. In addition, each business participating will feature samples of sweet treats from local restaurants and a few of the Chocolate & Candy Festival vendors. The shops, boutiques and salons will be open until 8 p.m.
The 12th annual Chocolate & Candy Festival is planned next weekend, on March 2, at the armory from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is $5.
Each paying visitor receives four sample tickets allowing them to sample from the chocolatiers, candy-makers and sweet treat merchants. Children younger than 6 will be admitted free and receive two free sample tickets.
Wine festival
On Sunday, and a few miles to the east, the 14th annual Harford Community College Wine Expo is on the boards for 3 to 6 p.m. in the APG Federal Credit Union Arena, the college new 3,200-seat sports venue that opened in the fall.
The event is the main fundraiser for the HCC Alumni and Friends Association, and proceeds benefit Alumni and Friends Association programs and scholarships. The association is partnering with Wine World Beer and Spirits of Abingdon to put on the event.
Tickets, available only to those 21 and older, are $40 each in advance and $50 each at the door. Anyone who wishes to be a designated driver can purchase a ticket for $20, and will receive a designated driver wristband.
About 50 vendors are expected to be on hand in the arena where those attending will be able to taste samples of wine and craft beer.
Among the Maryland producers expected to be on hand are: Boordy Vineyards, Linganore Winecellars of Mt. Airy, Knob Hall Winery of Washington County and the DuClaw Brewing Co., which operates brewpub restaurants in Bel Air, Bowie, Anne Arundel County and BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport.
The event isn't billed as a local product showcase, so it will also feature libations from across the U.S., as well as Germany, Italy, Spain and other countries.
There will also be a selection of hors d'oeuvres and desserts available to ticket holders at the event.
Tickets can be purchased in advance online at tickets.harford.edu or at Wine World, 406 Constant Friendship Blvd. in Abingdon.

Costa Do Sauipe, Brazil: Three stadiums hosting matches at next year's World Cup finals will not be ready by FIFA's end-of-year deadline, the general secretary of world soccer's governing body said on Tuesday.
They are the Arena Pantanal in Cuiaba, the Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, and the Itaquera stadium in Sao Paulo, where two workers were killed last week when a crane collapsed on the roof of one of the stands.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter told reporters that the Itaquera would not be completed by its planned deadline of December 31 but would be ready in time for the finals, when it is due to host the opening match on June 12, 2014.
Blatter, speaking after a meeting of the World Cup organising committee, said a report into the stadiums alerted them to some problems but added, "they are now so small we can close our eyes".
He added: "But there is one sad fact, and we deplore the loss of the two people who lost their lives last week, and we are feeling sad with the families, but the Sao Paulo stadium will be ready for the opening match."
Brazil are due to kick off the World Cup in Sao Paulo against opponents who will be known after Friday's draw.
General secretary Jerome Valcke confirmed there were problems at both the 43,000-seater Arena Pantanal in Cuiaba, which is due to host four group matches, and the 41,000 Arena da Baixada in Curitiba, which is also staging four group matches. The plan for a retractable roof at Curitiba has been abanoned.
There are also doubts that the stadiums in Manaus and Natal will be ready on time, but they are not as far behind schedule as the other two.
Valcke also said the stadiums would be late in terms of the planned deadline but ready in time for the finals.
Regarding Sao Paulo, Valcke said: "We are awaiting a final technical report. In the meantime I am having some technical discussions with the (construction) company but we don't know when the green light (to resume work) will be given.
"We are not in a crisis mood, looking at an alternative to Sao Paulo today. But Curitiba is facing the most problems and clearly won't be delivered before February 2014.
"The people from Curitiba attended a meeting yesterday and promised to organise themselves to get the stadium ready by the end of February 2014."
Brazil is using 12 stadiums for the finals, four more than originally stipulated by FIFA. The first six were ready in time to stage matches in June and July at the Confederations Cup, effectively the World Cup test event.

Prior to the Linux 2.6 kernel,
struct task_struct was present at the end of the kernel stack of each process. There was no
thread_info struct concept. But in Linux 2.6 kernel, instead of
task_struct being placed at the end of the kernel stack for the process, the
thread_info struct is placed at the end. This thread_info struct contains a pointer to the
task_struct structure.
What was the need for
thread_info structure to be introduced ?. We could have accessed the
task_struct structure using the
stack pointer directly if
task_struct was placed at the end of the kernel stack of the process.
In 2.6 Kernel,

Si2 Roundup @ DAC: Standards in Action
If you are attending DAC this year, or still thinking about it, then read on — you will not want to miss out on all the special activities Si2 is hosting this year. I'll give you the executive summary here, then a link to learn more and register at the end.
To begin with, Si2 has a new and improved format at DAC this year. Coordinated in partnership with the DAC powers-that-be, Si2 now has an all-day co-located event on Monday called "Si2 Roundup @ DAC: Standards in Action". This event includes a smorgasbord of shorter (approx. 90 minute) sessions, designed to give you concise and focused information about some of the active engineering projects currently underway at Si2. The sessions will cover hot topics in the OpenPDK Coalition, DFM Coalition, and our newest project, the Open3D TAB. These sessions will include speakers from such companies as (in no particular order): IBM, GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Samsung, LSI, Synopsys, Qualcomm, Altera, Apache Design, Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics, STMicroelectronics, and Intel. A detailed agenda is located here: http://www.si2.org/?page=1525
But there's much more. This year, we are celebrating the 10th anniversary of the largest standardization effort in the history of EDA, OpenAccess, with two special events. First, Si2 is hosting a free luncheon for DAC attendees that will also serve as Si2's annual open meeting, where we will announce election results for Si2's esteemed Board of Directors and present a short "state of the union" address (no doubt while folks are enjoying their cheesecake). Si2 is grateful for our luncheon (and reception) sponsors, including Cadence Design Systems, GLOBALFOUNDRIES, LSI, NanGate, and Spectral Design & Test.
But wait – there's more! This year's OpenAccess session will take an enjoyable look back at how OpenAccess actually came into existence (which will surprise many) and present both live and taped messages / testimonials from the leaders that have shaped OpenAccess and our industry over the years. We will conclude with special 10-year awards recognizing the amazing technical contributions that made this all possible.
But wait – there's even more! Following the final session on Open3D, Si2 is hosting an open social networking reception, where we will continue to bask in the celebratory mood with drinks and light hors d'oeuvres for all attendees.
But wait — there's still more! It is not normally Si2's modus operandi to engage in marketing giveaways, because we believe the fundamental value of our members' work will speak for itself to those who truly have an interest. However, this year seemed like the right time to offer giveaways specifically to celebrate this milestone moment together, and remember it for at least a few years ahead. So, in that spirit, Si2 will have some "hot" giveaways at Si2's booth: "OpenAccess @ 10″ sport shirts and 2GB flash drives. Enjoy!
So, where can you go to sign up for (some or all of) these events? Please click here right now: http://www.si2.org/events_register/dac_2012_registration.php
On behalf of my entire dedicated staff, I greatly look forward to seeing you at DAC!!

Red Gate Software has this week released version 7 of its ANTS Memory Profiler offering, targeted at developers who require extra memory management support over and above that offered inside the .NET platform itself. The new v7 product now features a new instance categorizer graph, a redesigned summary screen and filters, improved support for WPF, and a new snapshot API, all of which have been included to help aid the development of better performing, less resource-intensive applications.
New in ANTS Memory Profiler 7 is the automated snapshot API, built to allow developers to take 'memory snapshots' from within the code base as it develops. A newly refreshed and redesigned summary screen presents overview information and allows software engineers using the tool to jump straight to likely performance issues.
Also shipping in the new release is the instance categorizer, which Red Gate says is designed to make it simpler to understand why groups of objects are being held in memory. There are also now enhanced filtering and searching options to help drill down to the real cause of issues. The company specifies that development shops and individuals with a current 'Support & Upgrades' contract can upgrade to version 7 free of charge using their existing serial key.
In related news, Red Gate also notes its recent release of version 6 of its .NET obfuscator SmartAssembly 6. This new version includes improved Automated Error Reporting and Obfuscation and adds Feature Usage Reporting to give developers feedback on how your customers are using software in practice.

The 203,000 gain in jobs in November is undoubtedly good news, but no reason to hold a parade. The economy has been adding almost the same number of jobs each month for the past three years.
Let's go to the numbers.
The U.S. has created an average of 188,000 jobs each month in 2013. Similarly, the economy gained an average of 183,000 jobs in the first 11 months of 2012 and 175,000 during the same span in 2011.
All it would take is one bad month in December to drag down the 2013 figures below the pace of the past two years.
Is that likely to happen? No. For one thing, most economic signposts point to somewhat faster growth as the year draws to a close.
What's more, the economy has shown a pronounced tendency over the past three years to add more jobs in the first and fourth quarters and fewer in the second and third, points out Pierpont Securities chief economist Stephen Stanley. That probably reflects the difficulty government statisticians have in making seasonal adjustments, but who's really paying attention?
"In fact, history suggests that payrolls should average 200,000 or slightly better over the next few months, even if the trend hasn't moved," Stanley added.
That's just another puzzle for the Federal Reserve as it tries to determine exactly how much the labor market has improved

My head is swimming with my viewpoints on management today. I thought I'd pen some down for others to comment on. Here are five of them:
- I believe it's 80% positive mental attitude and only 20% what you know that really decides and defines the person. "Leave it with me and I'll get it done" is what every employer wants to hear.
- The cost of the employee is not their salary. The true cost is the "per task cost" in terms of time, teaching & learning curve, and rework. Cheaper is not always better. As an employee, internalize the Doctrine of Completed Staff Work. (Something I'm not very good at any longer I must admit.)
- There are only two states to a deliverable: Done and Not Done.
- If your task isn't done I'm going to ask "When can I have it?" "Percent Complete" is meaningless. "Time to complete" is not. 80% complete for four weeks means nothing to me. Four days to complete does.
- There is a difference between Done and Done Done. (i.e. I've completed this deliverable vs the deliverable is ready to ship to clients)

In the two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl which we're nearly halfway through, the crush of media will tell us everything we need to know about the players and coaches in the final football game of the season.
Sometimes, we're told too much.
In a profile of Ravens safety Bernard Pollard by Scott Cacciola of the New York Times, we learn, among other things, that Pollard is averse to clothing.
Pollard's confidence is apparently expressed by his willingness to do interviews while unclad, with Cacciola noting "Pants are the enemy."
OK then.
The local media presented Pollard with a pair of boxer shorts when they gave him their "good guy" award for being professional in dealing with them in 2011, and his "teammates have encouraged him to use a towel or two."
Maybe he was going to buy a robe with the money he was fined ($15,250) for hitting Wes Welker last week.
Maybe he just digs on being nude. As long as he doesn't go Zeke Mowatt, most people in the locker room don't care. That's yet another reason why reporters carry note pads.

The Cowboys have acquired outside linebacker Edgar Jones from Kansas City, the Chiefs said on their website on Saturday night.
Kansas City will receive a draft pick from Dallas, but the exact compensation has not been disclosed.
Jones (6-3, 262) recorded seven special teams tackles for Kansas City in 2012. He previously had stints with Baltimore and Washington.
Jones may project as a backup defensive end or strong-side linebacker in Dallas' 4-3 defense, and he surely would be a contributor on special teams.
The trade leaves the Chiefs with 52 players, one short of the 53-player limit.

Science Activity
Children will develop common-sense rules to follow in different kinds of weather.
What You Need
- poster board
- felt-tip pens
What to Do
- Encourage children to name or describe as many different kinds of weather as they can. Record their ideas on the board or on a large piece of newsprint.
- Pick one of the suggestions: for example, a rainy, puddly day. Write its description at the center of a circle. Then ask children to picture themselves coming to school on a day like that. What would they wear? Write children's responses outside the circle (or draw them), then connect them to the circle with straight lines.
- Point out that wearing special clothes on a rainy day to keep from getting wet is a common-sense rule for a rainy day.
- Divide the class into four teams, each of which is responsible for thinking of common-sense rules for one type of weather (for example, fog, hot sun, freezing cold). Be sure children understand that their common-sense rules should include not only clothing and special gear but also common-sense safety rules.
- Have teams brainstorm for a set period of time. Then, on poster board, record (or have a student-volunteer record) the common-sense rules for each type of weather.
- Encourage team members to make drawings of special weather gear for their posters. Or they might draw themselves as "dressed for the weather." Add the drawings to the poster.
Teaching Options
Involve family members in developing common-sense rules for different kinds of weather. Divide a paper into quarters and list each set of rules under a descriptive title. Leave space for parents or other family members to add their suggestions.
Refer to the posters as each kind of weather occurs. Encourage children to re-evaluate the rules and amend them if necessary.
Should children become alarmed after hearing predictions of extreme weather (such as blizzards or hurricanes), remind them of their common-sense rules and stress that there are ways of protecting themselves in all kinds of weather. Consult the U.S. Weather Bureau or local authorities for suggested procedures, and share the information with children.

Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease
Dec 28th, 2018
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
To help keep you in top health, our experts recommend these steps:
- Identify irritants. For those with occasional heartburn, simple dietary and lifestyle changes can help prevent and manage individual reflux episodes. Some people find that avoiding certain triggers, such as lying down immediately after eating, spicy foods, mint flavors, raw garlic, and chocolate can prevent heartburn. Select Eating Right, above, for more information.
- Visit the vitamin aisle. Some people require medications to manage GERD, but for others, a smart supplement choice can bring quick relief from occasional heartburn issues. Chewable DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice) supplements are one option. Select Vitamins, above, for more information.
- Lose weight, lose the burn. Being overweight or obese, especially if those extra pounds are carried in your midsection, significantly increases GERD risk. Weight loss can bring enough relief to allow less use of medications for some. Select Eating Right and Medicines, above, for more information.
- Butt out. Smoking significantly increases GERD risk, and can worsen each episode of heartburn. Quitting may be difficult, so consider over-the-counter and prescription products to increase your chances of success. Select Personal Care, above, for more information on smoking cessation products.
Our experts recommend the following top tips to help tame the fire in your tummy:
- Make the most of your meals. Even if you take medication to manage chronic GERD, diet is an important component of your heartburn prevention routine. For example, a low-fat diet is one option for reducing GERD, and may help you need less medication over time. Select Eating Right, above, for more information.
- Supplement suitably. If you are taking medications to manage GERD, talk to your doctor, dietitian, or pharmacist about whether you need any dietary supplements, as some GERD medications reduce absorption of certain vitamins and minerals. Select Medicines, above, for more drug-nutrient interactions and other safety information.
- Mind your medications. If you've been prescribed GERD medications, take them exactly as directed. If you are having unpleasant side effects, tell your doctor right away, so you can work together to find better options, so you do not have to suffer in silence. Select Medicines, above, for more information about medications commonly prescribed to manage GERD.
- Butt out. Smoking significantly increases GERD risk, and can worsen each episode of heartburn. Quitting may be difficult, so consider over-the-counter and prescription products to increase your chances of success. Select Personal Care, above, for more information on smoking cessation products.

text: Player costs at champions Manchester City hit $315 million last season as the team won the English title for the first time [GALLO/GETTY]English Premier League clubs agreed Thursday to restrain spiralling player salaries and rapid spending through financial controls that will see rule breakers face heavy point deductions. The move, which is designed to ensure that the expected $8 billion being generated by a new television rights deal isn't frittered away, comes days after UEFA warned that escalating player costs were jeopardising the future of clubs in Europe. Teams with wage bills exceeding $82m will only be able to increase them by $6m per season for the next three years if the rise is funded through TV revenue. And clubs will only be able to record a loss of $165m from 2013-16 - a rule Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool would have breached recently if it was already in place. Points deductions The regulations are more lax than UEFA's Financial Fair Play rules, which are forcing teams entering European competitions to eventually make teams break even on their football-related business. "The clubs understand that if people break the 105 million pounds [$165m] we will be looking for the top-end ultimate sanction range, a points deduction,'' Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore said. Scudamore said the regulations will prevent teams emulating Chelsea and Manchester City by embarking on turbo-charged spending sprees under new ownerships to quickly win silverware. "You can still build a very decent club with substantial owner funding that over time can challenge anybody but ... it's just going to mean doing that is going to take a few years longer, which is not at all a bad thing,'' Scudamore said. Scudamore believes that the spending by Chelsea and City has contributed to wages rising across the league. Player costs at City hit $315 million last season as the team won the English title for the first time in 44 years after investment of about $1 billion since being taken over by Abu Dhabi owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan three years earlier. Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich had to fork out $269m last season on salaries as the team won the Champions League. The west London club won the Premier League in 2005, two years after Abramovich's took over and started spending heavily to strengthen the squad. Such rapid spending will be curtailed by the new regulations approved by at least 14 of the 20 Premier League clubs on Thursday. "If a new owner or even an existing owner with a change in attitude or a change in fortunes ... what they aren't going to be doing is throwing 100s of millions at it in a very short period of time,'' Scudamore said. "If that's going to be done in future, it's going to have to be done in a slightly longer term, slightly more controlled way without the huge losses being made.'' But Scudamore said it is "harder and harder to envisage (someone) buying a club that is not currently successful and making them title contenders.'' "The fact Chelsea and Man City have done what they have done makes it harder and harder for anyone else to come in,'' he added. "Because you've got to come in and climb over far more clubs than you used to have to climb over a couple of years ago.'' The rules are designed to prevent a repeat of the financial meltdown at Portsmouth, which became the first Premier League club to enter bankruptcy protection in 2010. British Sports Minister Hugh Robertson hopes the new rules will ensure clubs are run on a "more sustainable basis.'' "The Government has been clear that we want clubs to be on a secure financial footing for the long-term health of the game,'' Robertson said. "This is a welcome and positive move.''

It's not hard to teach our children to be accepting of disabilities. Children are naturally eager and excited to learn new things. Like sponges, they quickly absorb new words, concepts and ideas. Children learn through imitation, and as they grow older, they form habits and opinions by repeating what they see and hear. Unfortunately, it is just as easy to teach children to be unwelcoming, wary or even fearful of people with disabilities.
When an adult walks past someone in a wheelchair, turning his head to the side to avoid making eye contact, the child next to him learns to avoid interactions with people in wheelchairs.
When a woman parks in the handicapped spot in a parking lot, she is teaching the children in her car that the needs of those who truly need such spots are insignificant.
When a woman deliberately avoids the checkout line at the grocery store with a clerk or bagger with disabilities, she teaches the children with her that this person's work means less than someone else's.
When a parent tells a teacher, in earshot of his own child, that he doesn't want his son in class with "that" child; he teaches his son that a child with disabilities is less worthy of an education.
"Don't worry that children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you." ~ Robert Fulghum
What if an adult looked the man using a wheelchair in the eye and said good morning?
What if a woman explained to the children in her car that the reason they have to walk a little farther this morning is because there are certain spots saved for people who don't walk as well as they can on their own (fair isn't always equal)?
What if a woman deliberately chose a line at the grocery store for the clerk with a disability, quietly explaining, outside the store, that they continue to shop at this very store because of its inclusive employment policies?
What if a parent told a teacher, in earshot of his son, that his son has already mastered the math lesson and would be happy to help another child in the class catch up?
Lead by example. Be the person you hope your children will become. Teach your children that a wheelchair is just a ride. Demonstrate the value of treating others with kindness. Discuss the significance of choosing your words carefully and standing up for equality and the rights of others.
What if….

Jenna is 6!
Our Baytown friends will remember that Jenna was not easy to come by. After losing three pregnancies and then struggling through the first several months of my pregnancy with Jenna (I get notoriously ill when I'm pregnant), a friend at church told me "Girl, when this baby gets here we are going to throw a PARTY." And they did. I had a fabulous baby shower and we still have so many blankets and pillows that our sweet friends there made with their own hands. It usually takes two people to have a baby, but, with a lot of prayer, our entire church family in Baytown got Jenna here. That's something I'll always remember about our time in Baytown.
Here's something I wrote a while back about Jenna (with her age updated):
"Blue eyes, my baby's got blue eyes. Like a deep blue sea on a blue, blue day." -- "Blue Eyes" by Elton John
Jenna was born six years ago today. Eight-and-a-half pounds. A golden sheen to her head that promised blond hair. Blue eyes.
At least I tell people they're blue. There really isn't a word to describe the color of her eyes.
But I'll try.
I learned to scuba dive in 1993. And I learned something about it right off: scuba diving is a big hassle. So much heavy, awkward equipment is required for breathing underwater. The tank by itself weighs 80 pounds. Then there's the weight belt, which must be adjusted just right so you won't float to the surface or be stuck on the ocean floor. Then you have the BCD, the fins, snorkel, mask and wetsuit. Once you get all that stuff on, it's hard enough to remain upright, let alone walk normally.
But once below the surface, the oppressive gear becomes your key to the underwater world. You swim around weightless, holding out fingers as curious fish swim up to them. Your teeth clench around the regulator that, on land moments before, was uncomfortable in your mouth. Now it's the only way to get air into your lungs. The sound of your constant inhaling and exhaling is a reminder that you're doing something humans weren't made to do. You are living, thriving, underwater. The hassle, for the moment, is forgotten.
It took us a long time to get Jenna into this world. I got pregnant, then miscarried. Pregnant again, then blood one morning. Pregnant a third time, but then more blood. We started thinking adoption. Then I got pregnant again, and this one held. I got very sick, was placed on home healthcare, and then developed gestational diabetes. Then, one Thursday morning, the previous year-and-a-half faded as I finally looked into her eyes.
And I remembered the circle of light.
Thirty feet under the ocean's surface, it's easy to become disoriented -- to the point that you can lose track of which way you're supposed to go to reach air. As a scuba diver, you learn to look for light. Light means surface. When you find the sunlight piercing the blue mass in which you are submerged, you slowly swim toward it, exhaling all the way. Surrounded by varying shades of watery blue, the circle of light expands and seems to pull you toward itself. You keep swimming up, up, up -- until you think your lungs can't expel any more air. But the bubbles keep coming from your mouth, and you keep moving toward the light.
Then you reach it and you burst through it into air, light, life.
That's what color Jenna's eyes are.

·····Subchapter 9b - Meanwhile, somewhere else
The camp was neat and essencial, as it was the habit of the order when travelling.
The sisters had made haste Eastwards, eager to bring back the relic to its rightful, honored place; Maeko, as the one most instrumental to the Bowls recovery, had been given the honour, and the burden, of its custody.
So it was that, when it happened, the young nun wasnt eating with her sisters, but meditating in the shrine-tent.
She had been fasting, both in thankfulness and penance, the former because she had been granted the possibility to atone for her past misdeeds, the latter to purge herself of the longing and regret she still felt for her chance-met companions; murmuring the Sutra of the Pearl she sat, contemplating the love and grace of Master Botahara, when the forest outside suddenly grew silent, an heart-beat later the silence was shattered by a throaty scream.
Attack! Without thinking Maeko rushed out, and stopped suddenly.
At first glance everything looked as it should have, but for a knot of four sisters bent over something.
Ahhhrrrrrr the scream rose again.
Maeko recognized the voice, it was Sister Yumei, the Seer. She started running to where the four were holding down the seer so that she , when in the spirits power, would not injure herself unwittingly.
The ear-piercing, bestial sounds started to form words, Yumei youthful visage changed, became more mature, as she started to speak in the Abbessvoice.
Daughters. Her breathing was laboured, often interrupted by a cough The Emperor accused us of treason .the imperial army attacked few days ago they are in, the Temple is burning .. you are
Silence. Maeko stole a glance to her sisters, only to see in their eyes the unbelieving horror she herself felt.
The only remains of Phoenixs song Monastery. . Save what you can, my daughters . Find a place rebuild . May the grace of
Sister Yumeis eyes rolled up as she fainted.
Last edited by Maeko; 7th of June, 2004 at 23:02.
Sometime later
They didn't really believe it yet, but belief didn't matter in the slightest, they knew their home did not stand anymore, and they had been set a task...
Ceremonies were held in the small clearing: sutras were chanted and incense burned, as much to honour the dead as to confort the living, and people had come too.
To make sure we don't plan to steal anything had commented Sister Lanyu, always the cynic, after their fist meeting with a wide-eyed pig-herder.
...but they had kept coming: out of curiosity, first, for the strange bald women dressed in exotic garb, the outlandish chants and the mysterious rituals, not coming out, but peering into the clearing through the last trees; out of defiance, the little ones, dared by their peers to go near the strange witches from far-away who could change them into the gods know what or have them for dinner; out of need, at last, those who came near looking properly at the ground, speaking in hushed voices, showing their ailments other healers could do nothing about...
Some of those came back too,bringing small gifts in gratitude, and others, whishing on them the curse of gods the sisters did not know and throwing stones.
And then the village priest came, to see, as he put it 'What all the commotion is about'.
He was an unusual man, a well travelled one, from his conversation, intelligent and curious, 'too much for my own good, dear woman', as he said to Maeko with a booming laugh.
Their story, though, sobered him up, 'I might be able to do something for you...I'll have to ask around, but if memory serves..." and with that he excused himself and left.
Ben pulled his hat down further over his eyes, shielding them from the few sun rays that managed to penetrate through the forest canopy. It was starting to get colder as winter approached, so he would probably need to find some warmer clothes soon. But his current clothing suited him fine for now. Besides, he doubted the witches who supposedly lived here would care what he wore.
"Witches" eh? Probably just some sorceresses too stupid to keep their magic hidden. The family Ben had spoken too had seemed very concerned and fearful of these newcomers. Soon after telling him about them, they had packed up and moved on, probably heading to one of the larger cities. Deciding to check it out, more out of curiosity than anything, Ben walked towards where the family had said the witched lived. If these so-called witches were actually as terrible and dangerous as the family had claimed, he figured he would take care of them. If not, well then he would just find out the truth.
A man walking in the other direction caught Ben's eye. The other man wore clothing that seemed to show something significant around here, but Ben wasn't familiar enough with the area to know what yet. The two men exchanged nods, but nothing else. They kept walking in their respective directions without slowing. Soon Ben came to a clearing. It was just a slightly elaborate camp, nothing to really get worked up over. The only thing that made it remarkable were the odd symbols here and there that Ben couldn't recognize.
Oh, and the very strange-looking women that seemed to occupy it. Resting one hand on his sword hilt, Ben lifted the brim of his hat with the other, looking at the strange "witches".
"Howdy," was all he said.
The priest had left somewhat in a hurry, albeit a good natured one, his willingness to help as evident as his unsettingly direct gaze.
Without really knowing how, Maeko had found herself acting as the nuns' intermediary with the locals.
You speak their language better, Sister, had said the prioress, and have come to know the barbarians' behaviour...
Sometimes, when her thoughts strayed from the work at hand, Maeko still wondered if the older nun had meant this as a compliment, ...or a reproach.
In any case, she had gotten used to the task and so, when the stranger entered the camp, she nodded to Sister Fuyin to take her place at the cooking-fire and approached him.
He moved purposefully, with a firm, powerful stride wich somehow reminded Maeko of Cadrius and Paladin: he had been likely trained as a warrior, then, and from his stance and the way his hand rested on his sword hilt, one expecting trouble, and making abundantly clear he was no easy prey.
Why someone would feel the need for such a statement in a camp of Botahist nuns totally escaped her...
At her approach he spoke : "Howdy" and waited, as if expecting an answer, the word itself meant nothing to Maeko, but, judjing from the tone, it was likely to be a greeting, so she bowed to the stranger as to a guest.
"Welcome to our camp", she said, " how can we help you?"
Last edited by Maeko; 31st of May, 2006 at 22:02.
Ben stayed for another hour or so at the camp, talking with the woman who called herself Maeko. Despite the odd way they all dressed, and some confusion on a few words, these women didn't seem strange to him at all. Of course he had been here and there over the past few years, so that possibly meant he had simply gotten used to different cultures. And that seemed to be what all these women were, simply people from a different culture than the ones who lived here.
"Well," Ben said as he rose from his sitting position. "I think I've wasted enough of your time. Just a little misunderstanding here, so I'll just be moving on then."
And with just that the warrior hefted his backpack, turned around, and walked away.
The sisters were on the move.
It didn't take long to struck their camp, travelling light had some distinct advantages, so, after the priest had come back with his news, they were ready to go after a few hours.
"The names you said, sister" he had told Maeko, that morning " 'Botahara', 'Jade Peak' struck a bell for me,...sounded familiar', he amended at her confused look.
"I knew I had heard them before, but couldn't remember where, now I know. May I speak with your prioress?".
It came out that the priest, Jaylon was his name, had worked as a caravan guard 'in his previous life' as he put it, and at one time had worked for a foreign merchant. " One who came from the whereabouts of Jade Peak, by the name of Harayama Akira. We kept in touch for a few years, last I know he had settled in a city north-west of here, managing a branch of his father's merchant house".
Jaylon stopped, enjoying the effect of his news. He wasn't disappointed, to Maeko's eyes the prioress had to struggle visibily to mantain her composure.
The Harayamas were well known for their piety, and the generosity of their patronage to the order, to find one so near, after having considered themselves lost in a foreign world was cause for joy indeed.
" I cannot guarantee he'll still be there" cautioned the priest, " but he was three years ago, and, if he has moved I think you'll be able to know where he went."
He gave them a map, and some money the sister weren't able to refuse, and then went back to the village, before they could even properly thank him.
" But you will remembered every day, as we chant the sutras in the presence of the Master, Jaylon the priest", thought Maeko, walking away from the clearing on the path he had showed them. " May you find enlightenment in this life".

Please note that colors on your screen may vary from those in hand on fabric.
Material: 1 mil poly PUL
What is Poly PUL?
A 100% Polyester knit interlock laminated with polyurethane film. The polyurathane or PUL is a waterproof yet breathable layer applied to the back of the fabric. Many thicknesses are available. The most common is 1 mil thick film as it still allows stretch and a subtile fabric while still being waterproof. PUL was originally designed to be used in the medical field to replace disposable products. Due to the original intent of PUL holds up very well with the extreme amount of repeated washing's cloth diapers require.
What is PUL used for?
-Reusable Diapers (baby, adult, animal, etc)
-Waterproof diaper pail liners
-Waterproof mattress pads
-Ladies hygiene products (reusable maxi pads)
-Changing pads
How is PUL sewn?
-Always use a ballpoint needle (sharp needles will create large holes and most likely leak)
-Always use 100% Polyester thread (cotton thread will wick moisture and cause leaking)
We suggest using a walking foot for sewing on PUL. In lieu of a walking foot, however, one can use tissue paper in between the feed dogs and PUL
-PUL is 100% Polyester and will not shrink, no need to prewash
CPSIA Compliant

Once again, France is having an affair with the affair — the Dreyfus Affair. On November 4, Le Monde published a controversial essay by Israeli sociologist Eva Illouz, titled "Israel: Justice or Tribalism," in which she views contemporary Israel through the prism of this 19th-century event. Israel, she concludes, lacks the political and legal ingredients that would allow it to repeat one of France's proudest hours.
Illouz's essay is a healthy provocation, one that reveals both the uses and abuses of the past when called on to understand the present.
Read Eva Illouz's essay in the Forward, 'Scarlet 'A' Is for Anti-Semitism.'
First, the facts. In 1894, a French military tribunal convicted Captain Alfred Dreyfus of providing military secrets to Germany. Apart from the notorious "bordereau" — a paper found by a cleaning woman in the trash basket of the German military attaché in Paris whose handwriting was said to resemble Dreyfus's own — the principal incriminating factor was Dreyfus's Jewish background. The army was hardly exempt from anti-Semitism, which, either as a clearly defined ideology or diffuse sentiment, threaded through much of fin-de-siècle France. Dreyfus was stripped of his rank in a public ceremony and bundled off to Devil's Island to spend the rest of his life in solitary confinement.
At first, the sentence raised few protests. Apart from Dreyfus's family, particularly his brother Mathieu, most of France, including its Jewish citizens, breathed a sigh of relief that the traitor was caught. Over the next several months, however, signs appeared that the wrong man was given a one-way ticket to Devil's Island. Courageous journalists like Bernard Lazare began to tick off the holes in the case against Dreyfus, ranging from the contortions to prove that his handwriting matched the bordereau's, to the military's refusal to reveal its other incriminating "evidence" (which was busily being fabricated by a certain Colonel Henry).
No less disturbingly, military secrets continued to find their way into German hands. An officer in counterintelligence, Georges Picquart, made this discovery. Suspecting that it was the work of a Hungarian adventurer, Ferdinand Esterhazy, he reported it to his superiors. Picquart, who happened to be anti-Semitic, was rewarded for his service with a transfer to the Tunisian desert.
By 1898, the affair had become the affair, dividing the nation along ideological and political lines. The Dreyfusards, who insisted on a retrial, claimed that France was not France when justice is flouted. This was the gist of Emile Zola's "J'Accuse," perhaps the most stirring and savage op-ed ever written. The anti-Dreyfusards, on the other hand, embraced a France whose essence was based not on reason or objectivity, but on tradition and subjectivity. One of its most eloquent leaders, Maurice Barrès, held that rather than the abstractions spawned by the revolution, it was "the soil and the dead" that defined France's identity. French Jews, most of whom had recently emigrated from elsewhere and who were liberated by the revolution, had only to draw the obvious conclusion.
Dreyfus was eventually freed in 1899 — though he was not declared innocent of the charges until in 1906 — and ever since, journalists, determined to speak truth to power, have seen his freedom as a beacon. Or, to use Illouz's metaphor, a mirror — one that, according to the Moroccan-born and French-educated scholar, offers a grim reflection. The Dreyfus Affair, she affirms, "is a political drama of an intensity scarcely imaginable in Israel." Indeed, "it is hard to see how its equivalent could occur there."
Illouz engages in a fascinating thought experiment. Imagine, she suggests, an Israeli Arab officer accused of sending military secrets to an Arab country. In a secret session, the military court finds the officer guilty and tosses him in the slammer. Yet an Israeli counterintelligence officer, one who happens to be a right-wing settler, uncovers evidence undermining the case against the Arab officer. Despite his anti-Arab prejudices, he brings his findings to his superiors, who banish him to a distant posting.
This, however, fails to stem a growing tide of outrage. The president of the Knesset insists on a new trial for the officer, as did the vice-president of the French senate. Soon after, a courageous Israeli journalist, channeling the spirit of Emile Zola, publishes a searing condemnation of the military and political class responsible for this miscarriage of justice. By now, Israel, like fin-de-siècle France, has fissured into two camps: justice versus blood.
Dream on, Illouz concludes. The very conditions that made the affair possible in France, where citizenship was universal, are utterly absent in Israel, where there exists the crucial distinction between formal citizenship (enjoyed by Israeli Arabs) and nationality (limited to Jews). Israeli Arabs, Illouz avers, bear a greater resemblance to ethnic enclaves under the Ottomans than to French Jews under the Third Republic.
Turning to ethics from ethnicity, Illouz doubles down, declaring that even a case in which a Jew was falsely accused would not lend itself to such an affair. Israeli politicians, she insists, are allergic to moral norms that would lead them to act against their own personal interest. Justice in Israel is parsed according to tribal, not universal, standards — a reflex, Illouz asserts, shared not just by politicians, but also by most Israeli citizens. Ultimately, Dreyfus and France were rescued not by individuals, but by moral norms that "transcended political and religious ties."
While Israelis will debate Illouz's essay, historians might point to certain limits in her comparison. First, Illouz ignores crucial geopolitical differences: Germany simply did not represent the same existential threat to France's survival as a number of Arab states do for Israel. Second, Illouz dwells on France's "Catholic culture," yet overlooks the fact that many Dreyfusards were Protestants, themselves long suspected of being less than fully French. Did this religious diversity, and not simply adherence to a conception of universal justice, play a crucial role in the Dreyfus Affair?
Finally, while it is inspiring to think that ideals drove French political leaders to join the Dreyfusard cause, it is sobering to recall that powerful political — indeed, tribal — motivations also existed. The affair was not a morality play, but instead a complex battle between rival ideological factions, one attempting to solidify the foundations of a young republic, the other doing its best to undermine it. Illouz scorns Israeli politicians skilled in "parliamentary negotiations and survival strategies" — but republican France's own political leaders were no less committed to such activities. Were they not, the republic might not have survived.
In the end, it might take an Ehud Olmert, a politician whose realism leads him to the right moral decision, as well as a David Grossman, whose moral vision helps define a country's political decisions, to turn an affair into the Affair.

King Abdullah II and Queen Rania Al-Abdullah visited, on Tuesday, Jabal Al-Qal'aa (the Citadel) in Amman, where they reviewed the area's rehabilitation and development project which was conducted by the Greater Amman Municipality (GAM) as part of its plans to revive the City Centre.
Chief of the Royal Court, Mr. Nasser Al-Lawzi and the King's Advisor, Ayman Safadi, also took part in the visit.
King Abdullah stressed the importance to preserve Amman's history, and issued directives to provide Jabal Al-Qal'aa with the infrastructure services necessary for the developmental project to enhance its role as a tourist destination for foreign visitors, and enrich the domestic tourism in particular.
His Majesty also directed the concerned parties to implement projects that safeguard historical and archaeological sites, in a manner that preserves the City's heritage and keeps pace with its modernity.
Both King Abdullah and Queen Rania were briefed by Mayor of Amman, Omar Maani, on components of Jabal Al-Qal'aa project and its stages of implementation. They also saw a model of an urban agricultural project to establish roof gardens in the City Center.
The project to renovate and overhaul Jabal Al-Qal'aa is part of a master plan seeking to develop the downtown Amman, and revive it by transforming it into a tourist attraction and boosting commercial activity by creating new business opportunities.
Maani said that the completion of Jabal Al-Qal'aa project will enhance the area's historic place and role, making it an important destination for tourists who wish to have integrated services, and a vital outlet for Amman citizens, linking the ancient history with the modern one.
The project is part a comprehensive plant implemented by GAM to develop and rehabilitate the City Center, in consistency with the ancient history of Amman, its beauty, and the development of its residents.
The Mayor said it has had a positive impact on the Jabal Al-Qal'aa neighborhoods, and stressed that GAM has met the residents' needs and upgraded various services, including the rehabilitation of Jabal Al-Qal'aa Sports Club and the constant communication with the residents in the area by holding a number of interactive meetings to update them about the project.
As of the urban agricultural project, Maani said GAM is implementing the project in cooperation with the World Bank and residents in the area, and aims at cultivating roofs of the residential buildings in a manner that reflects beauty of the place, and increases the green areas.
The agricultural project was commenced by targeting the houses surrounding Jabal Al-Qal'aa, and extended lately to include all neighborhoods, by building small gardens on 10,000 roofs in the City Center.
It is worth noting that GAM has accomplished all parts of Jabal Al-Qal'aa project, including the gateway, visitor's services center, corridors, crosswalks, panoramic plaza, as well as renovating garden of the Jordan Archaeological Museum, and building a bus terminal to serve tourists visiting the area.
The project will also include some additional works, such as a water network, and an arena for cultural and artistic activities.
Commenting on the project, Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, Ms. Maha Al-Khatib said it was prepared jointly between GAM and the ministry, and it is designed to develop the Citadel which enjoys a unique landscape over Amman, not forgetting its social and historic value to the residents.
She said that several designs were outlined to develop the area efficiently, and providing visitors with services, including instructive signs, and sunshades.
Al-Khatib noted that such touristic projects in Amman would help in extending the stay of foreign tourists in the Capital, and encouraging them to visit other archaeological and touristic places in the Kingdom.
Jabal Al-Qal'aa (the Citadel) is one of Amman's oldest hills, which hosted several civilizations over the past since the Stone Age. The Jordanian Archaeological Museum was built in the area back in 1951 to narrate the Kingdom's ancient heritage, and Amman's in particular.
