Cape Town at a glance
With Table Mountain as a backdrop, it is not surprising that Cape Town is considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world to live in. The city boasts breathtaking attractions such as the V&A Waterfront, Table Mountain and pristine beaches.
The suburb of Bakoven is also known as Camps Bay's baby sister, and derives its name from the large rock just off-shore from the beach, which looks like a massive oven door. Thanks to its close proximity to the city combined with a peaceful lifestyle, a Bakoven property offers homeowners the best of both worlds. One would be hard pressed to match the exclusivity and privacy that one of these magnificent properties offer.
Residents can delight in a small but gorgeous beach; its white sand and large boulders presenting a perfect setting to sit and watch the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean. Set against the backdrop of the Twelve Apostles Mountain, the blanched beach is a popular surf spot for locals and tourists with its rocky left reef break and offers a short ride which is best on a large swell. Bakoven beach also offers refuge from the infamous Cape Town wind, as it has several little coves that provide shelter to sunbathers.
While this incredible and zealously guarded little gem of the Cape offers a relaxed and idealistic lifestyle, it remains close enough to the city to appeal to residents who need to commute daily. The V&A Waterfront is a mere ten minutes away, where a shopper's delight of over 450 retail outlets awaits. Residents also have easy access to Cape Town's oldest living tradition.
The firing of the Noon Gun on Signal Hill has long provided families with a fun day out.

Bishopscourt is one of Cape Town's most sought-after and prestigious suburbs, and was laid out on the grounds of the farm Bosheuwel ("bushy hill"), originally owned by Jan van Riebeeck. There are excellent medical and school facilities, upmarket shopping nodes, a number of churches and golf courses close by and not to forget Cape Town's famous beaches are easily accessible.
The area is central to some of Cape Town's finest natural attractions including The Table Mountain National Park, Cecilia Forest and Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, which all offer lush green scenery, fabulous walking and hiking trails and respite from the city.
Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens has two excellent restaurants and hosts popular outdoor Sunset Concerts on Sunday during the summer months from November to April.
Bishopscourt is one of Cape Town's oldest suburbs and was established on the site of Jan van Riebeeck's farm Bosheuwel, in 1658. In 1660, a hedge of wild almond trees was planted around the borders of the Dutch settlement at the Cape to protect against cattle theft. Portions of this Van Riebeeck Hedge are still visible, and the section on Wynberg Hill was declared a national monument in 1945. It still forms an impressive natural boundary to a number of Bishopscourt homes. It was named Bishopscourt because it is here that the Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town still has his official residence.
Today this prestigious area is home to many of the most beautiful homes in South Africa, and has some of the most valuable real estate on the continent. The suburb consists of approximately 145 large, generally one acre properties, most with exceptional northfacing views of the back slopes of Table Mountain. Bishopscourt is also popular for enjoying entirely wind-free summers, unlike many areas of Cape Town that are exposed to the strong south easter, commonly known as the "Cape Doctor".
Far from how it is today, Camps Bay once had only one owner, John Lodewyk Wernich who eventually passed the area on to his son. When Johan Wernich married Anna Koekemoer, she was eventually widowed in 1778 and subsequently inherited the entire area. When Anna met a sailor called Frederik Ernst von Kamptz the area became known as "Die Baai van von Kamptz" – everyone in the area were convinced Frederik married Anna for her money. "Die Baai van von Kamptz" is merely the translation for Camps Bay – as we know it today. Today Camps Bay is one of Cape Town's most affluent areas. It is close to other luxurious suburbs such as Clifton and Bakoven. It is a popular tourist destination during the summer months, its pearly white beaches being the main attraction. Camps Bay has a trendy nightlife with many clubs and restaurants available for the happy holidaymaker.

Prime property for sale in Western Cape, Claremont Lynfrae is a quiet leafy suburb situated in the heart of the Southern Suburbs. With its easy access to most highways it is a mere 10 minutes from the centre of Cape Town. The Lynfrae borders have expanded over the years to form the area between Keurboom Road, Palmyra Road, Belvedere and Lansdowne Roads. Originally farming land it was divided into residential by the British in the early 19th Century.
The history of the area contributes to the character of the homes being high ceilings, wooden floors and fireplaces. The area is mainly family orientated offering large family homes on large grounds in what we call Lynfrae Proper to slightly more compact homes for the smaller starter family or the young single professional on the outskirts of the area. Being in the catchment area of top Cape Town private and government schools is a major advantage of living in Lynfrae.

Claremont, in the heart of the Southern Suburbs and situated only 9,5km south of the city centre, is a bustling and popular suburb of Cape Town. This vibrant district, and important commercial and residential area, is well known for its extensive shopping, dining and entertainment facilities.
Its many attractions include Cavendish Square Shopping Centre and its close proximity to the famous Newlands cricket and rugby stadiums, home to many international games and test matches.
The Dutch colonists arrived at the Cape in 1652 and established an outpost on the shore of Table Bay. In 1657 they developed a number of farms south of the outpost, which today are the suburbs of Claremont and the adjoining suburb of Newlands.
After the colony was taken over by the British in 1814 British settlers and officials bought the farms, re-named some of them and turned them into country residences. The farm Weltevreden was subdivided in 1822 and a portion of it was renamed Claremont, a name that was applied to the whole area in 1840.
The village grew during the 1840s and 1850s and the opening of a railway from Cape Town to Wynberg in 1864 spurred subdivision and development. In 1882, a village management board was formed which was replaced by the Municipality of Claremont in 1886, tasked with managing neighbouring Newlands too. Claremont was a town in its own right until 1913 when, together with most of the Cape Peninsula municipalities, it was incorporated into the City of Cape Town. It remained predominantly residential until the early 1970s.
Claremont Upper properties are generally large, spacious homes sought after by young families looking for proximity to the many fine schools in the area. The leafy "Hen and Chickens" estate features grand homes in general situated on half acre plots, and upmarket townhouses much sought-after by downscaling couples and small families.
Clifton is a luxury suburb of the Cape Town area. It's an exclusive area where some of the most expensive real estate in South Africa can be located. Clifton properties offer some of the best views with houses nestled on the breath-taking Clifton cliffs. The Clifton area is great for families looking for the perfect home, young professionals and is also a sufficient area for people looking for retirement property close to the sea.
The first people to live on the Atlantic Seaboard were the San people. They roamed the coast, hunted their way from day-to-day and lived in the caves along the coast. Back in 1783 Clifton was known as Schoemakers Gat or Cobblers Cave. The name derived from a story told that a shoemaker lived in the Clifton caves and when the farmers would pass on their way to Cape Town he would mend their shoes. Yet, around 1890, long after the shoemaker was gone, the area was named after the lady who ran the only hotel in the area and her name was Bessie Clifton. The name stuck to say the least and by 1900 Cape Town residents started making Clifton their main holiday spot. The first of these houses were small, modest wooden houses.
Even though Clifton makes for a unique and luxurious permanent home, many people purchase Clifton properties as holiday retreats. The famous set of four beaches in Clifton is its most popular feature. Both locals and tourists flock to these beaches during the summer months. They are named from 1st to 4th beach and are each separated by falls of granite boulders. The beaches have what looks like almost pure white granitic sand. Clifton's beaches are popular not only for their pearly sands, but also for the fact that the beaches are protected from the infamous south-easterly wind.
There is also a fifth beach, named Moses Beach, which appears and disappears as the sand is washed in and out with the seasons. The beaches are popular with water sports, especially surfing. The beaches, especially fourth beach, are popular with families and groups of friends. Yachts laze nearby off-shore.
Clifton is close to other popular and affluent suburbs such as Bakoven and Camps Bay. It is close to all the necessary amenities, like shops, cafes, restaurants and small malls. It is also close to the city of Cape Town and the Waterfront. This makes it a perfect place for the ultimate Cape Town living experience where you can be close to the hustle and bustle of the city, but also have a home close to the relaxing beach with its amazing views.

Nestled right in the heart of Cape Town's social activity, between prominent landmarks such as the V&A Waterfront and Signal Hill, is a suburb renowned for its beautiful terrace homes - this suburb has often been referred to as the Soho of Cape Town, but is officially known as Green Point.
Green Point has been associated with the Green Point Common as far back as the 18th Century, at which time it was known as De Waterplaats by the Dutch. This scenic expanse of land which extends from the magnificent Atlantic shoreline to the foot of Signal Hill became vested land after being granted to the Cape Town City Council in 1923 by the Union Government as Commonage. The land was then used for recreational purposes and sporting activities such as sailing regattas and cricket matches. Despite its long and often turbulent history of weathering political emancipation, slavery, Apartheid and generations of paupers and impoverished immigrant workers, Green Point has emerged as a thriving property and social hub in the Cape Town metropolitan.
With its buzzing nightlife, incredible mountain and ocean views and various small businesses and restaurants, the potential for urban development in this up and coming area was quickly recognized and embraced by property investors and developers alike. Now, years later, Green Point boasts a booming network of local businesses, social activity and Green Point real estate.
Green Point is in close proximity to some of the city's most popular attractions, including the V&A Waterfront, Sea Point and Camps Bay.

As a result of the recurring shipwrecks in Table Bay in the early 18th Century, the then governor made the decision to erect a breakwater (known as mouille in French) to protect vessels in the area. Slaves and convicts began working on the breakwater in 1743, during which time local farmers would load up their wagons with stones and offload them at Mouille Point. However, after 3 years of intense labour and relentless high seas, the ambitious project was abandoned, leaving only 100m of the breakwater completed.
The French arrived in 1781 and added a battery near the unfinished breakwater and named it Mouille Point Battery. The trademark candy striped lighthouse, which interestingly is the oldest operational lighthouse in South Africa, was built 43 years later and soon became one of Mouille Point's most distinct features.

When it comes to finding property in Cape Town, the Southern Suburbs is a great place to start looking. For many reasons, this part of the Mother City is one that has been lauded. The convenience, amenities and beautiful surroundings that can be found there are a force to be reckoned with. One suburb that stands out as a suburb to be enjoyed is Wynberg. Originally just farm lands, the soil is fertile and the vegetation lush, making it one of Cape Town's most beautiful hidden gems.
Wynberg is a considerably big suburb, although it has all the charm of a smaller area. They speak to both the old and new worlds, with farm-style houses forming the bulk of the homes on offer, it is a journey through history walking through this suburb. These big properties, with their beautiful wooden floors and high ceilings, have long been characterised as classically Wynberg. On the other hand, of course, there are a number of modern complexes and apartment blocks in the area, all of which offer a convenient, 'lock up and go' lifestyle.
The area is also fairly close to the Southern Suburbs' finest amenities, including shopping malls like Cavendish Square and Constantia Village. Over and above that, Wynberg also has a number of great schools under its belt, including the esteemed Wynberg Boys' and Girls' Schools. These institutions have long been held in high regard, mainly because of the excellent matric results they produce every year.
If you're in the market for a great family home that will leave a lasting legacy, look no further than Wynberg. The suburb is indeed a rare beauty – so much so that over the years, investors have ploughed a lot of capital into the area to make sure that it remains the place so many residents love.

Once again we return to the international competition "The Enchanted Wood" and dedicate this edition to Gabriele D'Annunzio who would have celebrated his 150th birthday last year. It is difficult to link the "Vate" (the Poet) with his native soil of Abruzzo, because there is such a lasting bond between him and all of the places he came into contact with, not only in Italy, but also in France, Istria, England…
This poet was a real citizen of the world, a modern Ulysses open to all things new and to the curiosities his travels brought him. Discussing Gabriele D'Annunzio is also a way of allowing Italy to relive those times, strongly characterised by this celebrity composer, writer, playwright, scriptwriter, journalist, food connoisseur, hero, Freemason and reckless playboy. Although he is often remembered as a symbol of Italian Decadentism, he was debated and controversial, charming yet disapproved of.
The tireless writer of a thousand works, he was a leader of the "new civilisation of images" and the emergence of busy cities that began to colour their streets with advertising and neon lights. On the other hand, in antithesis of his idyllic "city of Silence", for which the "Vate" yearns but does not live in, it is in cities of noise and bright colours where he lives out his days.
Gabriele D'Annunzio is a living oxymoron, because within him two realities collide: silence and chaos, day and night, the rule of chaos, erethism and atony, beauty and pleasure. He was always in search of a way to sustain his "words" with images or icons, reinforcing one with the strength of the other: consider the names he gave to his characters and stage directions for the film "Cabiria" directed by Giovanni Pastrone. Like in an Ex Libris, images are sublimated from the motto and dedication. There is a D'Annunzio to be entirely rediscovered and valued that despite his unmistakable exploits and the cliché of a man with boundless energy, was a melancholy and tormented character who only in his many acts of betrayal, saw loyalty.
"Il Bosco Stregato" (The Enchanted Wood) is another dimension, a dip into the memory of stories, fables and tales popolar tradition everywhere has dedicated to an imaginary word, and that often happen to be identical in different parts of the globe. Stories that we want to bring together with Ex Libris on a never-ending journey. Everyone else, who knows little or nothing about Ex Libris and the art of engraving, will (we are sure) appreciate the creativity and variety if so many works inspired to Gabriele D'Annunzio.
All works, were perfectly related to the topic requested, although in the respect for the author's specific culture, the works of the Jury was not easy, setting out as it did to give priority to all the works which complied with the regulations. We must end with a well-deserved thank you to all the artists who have chosen to take part in this adventure, in the hope of being able to count on their precious co-operation againg for the next competition "Best Friend – Pet Therapy" with an invitations to all to participate.

Unlike other brands, Apple keeps its iconic logo slightly un-highlighted on its products. That's why you see Apple logo on the rear back of iPhone or iPad. The Cupertino-based company has gone ahead with its years of strategy and kept its logo on the back of Apple Watch too.
When you wear Apple Watch on your wrist, the logo remains hidden. As an owner of this precious wearable device, you would want to flaunt the famous Apple logo on the watch clock face.
So, what if you wish to add Apple logo to Apple watch face, how would you do it? There is a trick that can fulfill your wish. Of course, it does involve some workaround but it gets the job well done for you. Let's cross over to find out more!
How to Add Apple Logo to Apple Watch Face
Step #1. First off all, you need to find a Apple logo and copy it.
Step #2. Launch Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
Step #3. Tap on My Watch. Then, scroll down and tap on Clock.
Step #4. Tap on Monogram and remove preset Monogram if there any.
Step #5. Next up, tap on the empty text box and paste the Apple logo.
Step #6. Now, press firmly on your Apple Watch screen to go to watch face menu.
Step #7. Swipe left or right to choose the desired color face. Once you are done, tap on Customize.
Just in case, there is no color option available in the watch face presets, swipe right to go to selector menu and then tap on the "+" to add it.
Inside the color face customization interface, you need to swipe right to the complications selection tool and then tap on the center box.
Step #8. Up next, rotate Digital Crown in order to select the Monogram.
Step #9. In the end, Force Touch the screen to set the Apple logo as the watch face.
That's it!
What do you think of reason to keep its logo hidden on the Apple Watch?

Chicago, IL, January 5, 2017– Vendor Assistance Program, LLC (VAP) announced the new hire of former Central Management Services (CMS) Director, Malcolm Weems. As CMS Director, Weems oversaw the creation of the Illinois Vendor Payment Program, for which VAP was the first qualified purchaser in 2012.
After two years as CMS Director, Weems ended his tenure with the State in October of 2013 to pursue his own consulting firm. Weems will still maintain a small client list while he transitions to a more prominent role at VAP. Weems' primary focus will be expanding VAP's business into new states and municipalities.
"Malcolm's experience will help us expand the business. He can relate to the government officials on the other side of the table," said VAP CEO, David Reape.
Headquartered in Chicago, Vendor Assistance Program, LLC (VAP) is a specialty finance company that finances sovereign, government receivables, helping vendors manage cash-flow. VAP was founded in 2010 in partnership with the State of Illinois to address the State's delayed payment cycle. Since the company's inception, VAP's principals have purchased over $9 billion of deferred payments.

Last chance saloon for Summer sales!
With summer coming to an end and the new season just around the corner, it's time to look at the sales. Are there any bargains to be had on the UK High Street - or more precisely, in UK cyberspace? Here at forward2me, we love a bargain so we've been snooping around online trying to find you some interesting bargains in the summer sales.
Clothing is probably the first thing people think of when they talk about sales. At the end of the season, retailers are making space for the new ranges and often heavily discount items. Online, the season is not so pronounced, but there are still some bargains to be had. Take a look at Asos for designer goodies. Don't cry - BooHoo has everyday deals - they had some jelly sandals for £5 and many other deals at the time of writing... Jaeger had some classy items too.
Other good things to buy at the moment include kids' toys. The summer holidays are drawing to an end and it's time to make way for the Christmas stuff. (Sorry Autumn, you've been by-passed again). I saw my first Christmas display at the weekend in the local garden centre. Too soon... toy retailers including The Entertainer and ToysRUs also have bargains. Argos always has really good deals and Sainsbury's can also surprise. I know it's early, I said so myself, but Christmas is just around the corner in terms of shopping days. Also, if you've got little ones who need things for other children's parties, it's a great time to stock up.
I've already mentioned garden centres and now is the time to grab a bargain if you're looking for some new garden furniture or that fire pit you've always loved. Rattan is everywhere still this season and there are some deals available as it seems to have saturated the market. Look at gardenfurnitureworld for some good prices on all things garden-related. You could re-model at the same time - at forward2me we can ship large items, even paving slabs if you take a fancy to some. Just use our door-to-door tracked shipping to bring a touch of the English country garden to your home.
If all that gardening talk has tired you out at the thought of it, why not treat yourself to a new 3-piece suite or some new bedding in the sales? Or furniture in general? Many of the larger furniture retailers have their sales at the moment too. Laura Ashley has some beautiful items, especially in the bedding department. Oak Furniture Land has, well, oak furniture...M&S also has some soft furnishings in its sale too.
So have fun online, take a look around the various sales and use our international shipping to bring the goods home.

Pupils and staff at St Patricks Catholic Primary School in Toxteth have been able to enjoy their first sing-a-long around the piano thanks to a very special delivery from Clayton Square Shopping Centre.
The school was chosen as the lucky recipient of Clayton Square's iconic baby grand piano, which was a well-known feature of the city centre having entertained shoppers for more than 20 years.
When the shopping centre ran out of space for the Yamaha Bay Grand Piano and it was no longer used, bosses ran an appeal through the Liverpool Echo for people to nominate deserving groups to provide it with a new home.
This was spotted by Phil Larkin, who has recently become musical coordinator at St Patricks, and who was Clayton Square's resident pianist from 2001 to 2004.
Along with head teacher Terry Kirwan, Phil has been trying to give a huge boost to musical learning at the school and to provide opportunities for children to be involved in music.
He said: "I'm thrilled to be reunited with the piano and that Clayton Square has chosen St Patricks to receive the piano.
"The baby grand piano at Clayton Square has been a real cultural fixture in Liverpool for many years and I even remember being a child listening to the original pianist Glenys Carroll who became a much-loved figure in the city.
"Her piano playing brought a great deal of pleasure to many people over the years and having the opportunity to play the same piano in that location was very exciting and a real joy.
"We're now working to provide children at the school with more opportunities to get involved with music, such as the recent Supersing event that took place at the Echo Arena in June, and their own fantastic musical productions in school.
"We want to take their musical development and their love of music as far as possible and this beautiful piano will not just be a real asset to music education in the school, but I'm sure will help to improve the children's all-round appreciation of music."
Ian Strettle, Clayton Square centre manager, said: "We were delighted when Phil got in touch to offer a new home for our baby grand piano at the school where he now teaches.
"Phil is a wonderful pianist so it's great that he will be reunited with the piano and that he will be using it to nurture the talents of the next generation of Liverpool musical talent."

Thinking Our Way of Thinking is Normal
I had an interesting experience recently while touring the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC with three Indian friends. We were in the collection with Byzantine altarpieces and much Christian iconography and my friend who has lived in the US for two decades asked me about the meaning of the artwork. So, I gave a short tour explaining Mary and baby Jesus and what … Continue reading Thinking Our Way of Thinking is Normal

a better defense of coffee and water
Coffea arabica is an understory shrub, but most people call it a tree.
How to protect a watershed: plant trees.
Coffee farms with diverse shade have biodiversity equal to native forests (sorry no citation). Coffee farms are tree farms. Hence they protect water sources. They also produce billions of tons of oxygen (they are plants, and again no citation).
How much water does wine protect?
How much water does beer protect?
It takes a little thinking, but coffee as an agroforestry system maintains or increases water tables. Coffee farms are [forests = shade trees + under story shrub (coffee) + quality wood species planted around the perimeter + birds (the only place I see bird diversity is on or near coffee farms in the DR) + other plants that don't effect coffee production (bromliads)]. Ask any hydrologist how to protect a spring in the mountains. Springs become rivers | rivers lead to lakes | you need water.
Even if the coffee is low quality robusta, at least it is a tree that is planted. I vote for a mono crop of trees over a mono crop of corn any day of the week.

Recruitment agencies may charge a fee for their services, but they are useful. Most companies will list their job openings with recruitment agencies and depend on them to find suitable candidates. Sign up with a recruitment agency in your area and be specific about the type of job you are searching for.
If you are a new graduate, your high school, college or university may have a free service, sign up with them also. Sometimes employers will link up with these schools to find new fresh graduates to fill vacancies.

A Perfect Car Kit
The essentials are a backpack, first aid kit, reflective vest, set of reflective triangles, a headlamp and booster cables), to round it out add these - a window breaker/seatbelt cutter, tow rope, gloves, a whistle, spare batteries and a multi-tool.
Your car kit
You are more likely to need an emergency kit while you are traveling. We've carefully researched the best choices for a complete kit to keep your safe on the road, and the tools you need to get you going again.
Here are the things you need to keep in your car(s):
You'll want a reflective vest to put on so motorists can spot you on the side of the road even at night and a set of reflective triangles to place on the road in front of you so you don't get hit by oncoming traffic. You'll need light (and we recommend the headlamp), booster cables in case it's a dead battery, and a window breaker /seatbelt cutter so you can get out in a hurry. A good tow rope can get you pulled out of trouble and nothing beats a good pair of gloves, even if you're just changing a tire. Finally, a whistle to make sure you get found, spare batteries and a multi-tool. And of course, a good first aid kit. Finally, we suggest a backpack to keep it all organized, and in the event you need to get away from your car, it's great to have to carry things with you.
We really, really wanted to find a pre-made kit for your car that we could recommend. And we came close. So we have one kit we can recommend that mostly ticks all the right boxes at a reasonable price. But like most pre-made kits, they make sacrifices on quality to keep the price down, and then toss in items we find questionable just to add to the number of items in the kit. So we also compiled a list of what we feel are the necessities, using much higher quality products. It costs a bit more to go that way, but in the event of an emergency you'll be glad you did.
Here are our recommendations:
Start with these six essentials.
Absolutely top of list should be a first aid kit, booster cables, a reflective vest, warning triangles a headlamp, and a backpack to keep them all in. We recommend these:
- All
- cakit1
Packable Colorful Backpack
Reflective Safety Vest$8.91
Premium Jumper Cables$10.95
Add these to round out your kit.
Experts recommend a good pair of work gloves, we like a car-oriented multi-tool to make quick repairs, glow sticks for more safety, a seatbelt cutter, window breaker tool for escaping the vehicle, tow straps and our favorite whistle to alert first responders.
- All
- cakit2
12 Emergency Glow Sticks$9.99
Leather Safety Gloves
Stainless Steel Multi-tool$11.89
Emergency Alert Whistle$6.25
And finally, don't forget to keep water:
We recommend putting a carton of boxed water in the trunk (it will keep for at least 2 years and you won't have a leached plastic taste), and we adore these insulated stainless steel bottles. We've kept one in the car in the hot sun and the water stayed cold and tasting great for days. Both options are way better than plastic.
If you want a kit already put together, this one is almost complete:
Why we chose this kit: It's got most of the items you need, including a reflective vest, tow rope, jumper cables, 2 adjustable wrenches, pliers, a whistle, gloves, and a minimal first aid kit. It also comes with a rain poncho and foil blanket. It's got a hand-charged flashlight that doesn't need batteries, but we don't know how long it takes to charge it up, and we prefer a headlamp so you can have your hands free. Overall, this is the best kit we could find out there and is far better than not having a kit in your car. We'd suggest adding a better first aid kit at least.
About our methodology
We spent hours reviewing materials from FEMA (the US Federal Emergency Management Agency), the Red Cross, the Humane Society as well as a host of other government and non-governmental organizations to put together the checklist of necessary items. We then spent many more hours reviewing products. We look for quality, completeness without overkill, high customer ratings, and price. We read the customer reviews and note their experience. And of course, these are the items we personally bought.

What is political asylum? It is the right to live in a foreign country. All of us have the right to asylum in other countries.
You are generally considered a refugee if you are unable or unwilling to return to and avail yourself of the protection of your country of nationality. Another criteria is if you are stateless because of the persecution of last country of residence and/or you have fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion.
Political asylum refers to the protection given to political refugees from arrest by a foreign jurisdiction. Asylum is also called a nation or an embassy that affords such protection. It is important to mention that asylum is not the same as refugee. In case of asylum the asylum-seeker seeks his or her status after arriving in what is hoped will be the welcoming country. A refugee status is given before traveling to the final destination.
If you ordered, incited, assisted or otherwise participated in the persecution of any person on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular group or political opinion, that might prevent you from getting asylum. You might be barred from asylum if you also were convicted of a particularly serious crime, committed a serious nonpolitical crime outside the United States, posed danger to the security of the United States and/or were firmly resettled in another country prior to arriving in the U.S. You will not receive asylum if you were described in any of the terrorism or security-related inadmissibility grounds.
You can seek asylum in the airport, seaport or border crossing. For more detailed information about the process of getting asylum status in the United States please, watch this video. We also suggest that you consult an immigration lawyer to help you make the right decision and obtain all required documentation for your visa application. Come to Legal Bistro and find the right attorney for your immigration case. The service is 100% free for consumers and you remain anonymous throughout the entire process of finding the right lawyer.

It's now come to a close but we were really happy to have been involved in organising and exhibiting at Project Summerhall, The three week long exhibition in the Basement Galleries was designed as a showcase of creativity and was the very first 'residents' exhibition at Summerhall. We felt it was really important that the show would be as inclusive as possible and so it was open not just to 'residents' but to anyone (and everyone) who spends their working day (or night) at Summerhall, the Techcube, the Royal Dick and the Cafe. It was a bit of a an eclectic mix blending work for recognised artists, with more commercial stuff from people like myself, and exhibits (and live performances) from members of the staff and the management. Despite the wide variety creative disciplines and styles of work on display it all hung together really well thanks in no small part to the curating skills of Associate Exhibitions Programmer, Nina Lehrfreund. If you didn't manage to get along here are a few images to give you a flavour.

On October 10, 2008, SCCi Chairman Brian Krebs announced that the Conservancy has signed a contract to purchase 80 acres in Jackson County, Alabama overlying a large portion of Fern Cave and including the Fern Sink Entrance and Surprise Pit. The preserve is a privately owned tract adjoining the federally-owned Fern Cave National Wildlife Refuge . All other entrances of the cave are located on the federal land. Since 1997, the SCCi has managed the Fern Sink entrance and Surprise Pit under a lease agreement with the owner. When the opportunity arose this summer, the Conservancy was able to convert our long-term relationship with the property into permanent ownership and protection. You can help support permanent protection of Fern Cave by becoming an SCCi member and donating to help with the acquisition costs. SCCi Sustaining Membership is the best way to support the acquisition and protection of Fern Cave and other southeastern caves.
