With Friends Like These: Abusive Frenemies and American Mideast Policy
Pop quiz: name the two largest (by far) recipients of U.S. foreign military aid and one other country which recently negotiated the biggest American arms sale deal in world history. Let's call them the Big three (beneficiaries of largesse, that is).
Ready for the (not-so) shocking answers? So, the military dictatorship is Egypt – recipient of $1.3 billion in military aid per annum. The nation that conquered and annexed adjacent territory is Israel – the donee of some $3.1 billion in military aid each year; and, ironically, the state that US leaders regularly (if incorrectly) tout as the "only democracy in the Mideast." And the charming, child-starving, woman-beheading regime: that's the theocracy and absolute monarchy of Saudi Arabia – future owner (maybe) of a record $110 billion in US military equipment. Now that's a proud lot!
By backing this core of abusive regimes, Washington only rewards and encourages bad behavior. If the US didn't cut funding when Egypt gunned down protesters, and Trump praises its President General Sisi as doing a "tremendous job," what's to stop repeat human rights abuses? If Washington barely blushed when the Saudis killed and dismembered a Washington Post journalist, and refuses to shutdown the Saudi terror war in Yemen, why should the crown prince – and Jared Kushner bro – behave?
Rewarding bad behaviour, at the national level, is one of the lousiest things the Unhinged, Surveilled State of America can do, and yet it continues doing just that.
Here's a good analogy; just think about a parent whose teenage son gets drunk, drives off while well tanked, and gets himself into an horrific accident, resulting in multiple deaths and woundings, and what does the dad do?!?
Goes out and gets the kid another car, of course!!
Folks, the US government is driving this world into an oblivion of hate, war, and pestilence, the likes of which humankind has never seen before. It appears that most members of the American political class (except for Ro Khanna, whose bi-partisan legislation to stop the US's wars I respect highly), believe that US foreign policy ... always has to come with bombs, bullets, and whatever hellfire they can conjure, raining down death from above, against any and every nation with the nerve to be sitting over some resource which the US government wants to expropriate, regime change that the government, and make sure that this resource is only sold with American dollars.
This formula is so transparent, that I cannot imagine why people don't see it; yet, because of all the distractions and diversions put in their way, US citizens just don't see it, or won't see it, until, unfortunately, it may be far too late to save this country, and the world, from an ELE (extinction level event).
I do believe that there is a different path this country should be taking, a path of peace, with a lot more positive outcomes than what I see in current foreign policy, but it will take a formidable, will and absolute honesty, of every American citizen, to make that happen.
I hope, and pray, that my brother and sister Americans are up to the journey. It will be long, and hard, and they may never mention our influence in history books yet to be written; but it is imperative that we come together, with hope and optimism, to make this world a better place.

Come to Incheonfor Fresh Seafood
Incheon is the most famous for its seafood.
Incheon is always crowed by people wanting to enjoy fresh hoe (raw fish dishes) and buy a great variety of seafood including fleshy prawn, blue crabs, sea squirts and shellfish as well as various kinds of fish.
Incheon is always crowed by people wanting to enjoy fresh hoe (raw fish dishes) and buy a great variety of seafood including fleshy prawn, blue crabs, sea squirts and shellfish as well as various kinds of fish.
There are top 3 locations where you can enjoy fresh seafood that Incheon has to offer: Sorae Port, Wolmido and Yeonan Pier.
Sorae Port Incheon Port was opened to the international community in 1883 through which western civilization came. Sorae Port has served as an important fish market for the Incheon region for more than 60 years after a small-scale fish market was formed in the wake of the Korean War (1950-1953) as war refugees caught shrimps and sold salted shrimps in an open market. Now the fish market at the port is across a railway bridge which has been remodeled as a pedestrian-exclusive bridge.
The market is particularly famous for shrimps, salted fish and blue crabs. In addition to such fresh seafood, you can enjoy fish stand owners' generosity and seagulls flying over fishing boats and the fish market against a blue sky. The port plays host to festivals of fleshy prawn and blue crabs, whose freshness and taste are recognized nationally, attracting crowds of people from various areas of the country. Come to Sorae Port to smell the sea and feel the sky while touring a dynamic fish market and enjoying fresh seafood of your choice.
Wolmido Island Wolmido Island is famous for an amusement park, diverse cultural performances and festivals designed for the younger population. It also boasts a number of seafood restaurants that offers a whole host of delicious seafood dishes at a fixed price along 'Wolmido Culture Street.' The dishes include hoe muchim (spicy raw fish salad) and jeoneo gui (grilled spotted sardines) as well as a platter of raw fish and various seafood. For everyone, the meal is a healthy feast indeed.
Wolmido is one of the best known tourist destinations in Incheon. If you want a quieter place, come to Bukseong Port, where you can enjoy fresh raw fish dishes at affordable prices in an alley that has maintained the port city's atmosphere in the 1970s and 1980s. The alley is lined with more than 10 diners specializing raw fish dishes. They serve fewer side dishes and yet their fish is always as fresh as it could be. Their maeuntang (spicy fish stew) cooked with ramen is another delicacy.
Yeonan Pier Yeonan Pier is home to various important facilities such passenger terminals, Marine Square, the Fish Market Complex, the Raw Fish Restaurant Street, the Seawater Bath Street, Cruise Port, and Namhang Wharf. It is a popular weekend getaway place not only for residents of Incheon but also for tourists from other areas of Korea. For instance, the Fish Market Complex which more than 500 stores call home attracts a crowd of people wanting to buy a variety of fresh and salted fishery goods. The Raw Fish Restaurant Street is home to large-scale raw fish restaurant towns like the Raw Fish Department Store run by Incheon Fisheries Cooperative Association and the Yeonan Raw Fish Plaza. Visitors can enjoy diverse seafood dishes at affordable prices.
Yeonan Pier is also known for blue crabs. Female crabs are popular in spring while male crabs are delicious in autumn. Most notably, blue crabs caught around Yeonpyeongdo Island are highly regarded for the eggs and meat filling the shells completely.
Incheon, the largest port in the Seoul Capital Area, provides the freshest seafood in Korea. Come down to Incheon to enjoy its healthy seafood all year round.

Q3AMBIENTFEST is a three-day happening for neoclassical and experimental music, featuring established and emerging artists from diverse genres and origins. The handpicked roster of talent for this year's festival, founded and carefully curated by brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke, the award-winning Potsdam-based cello-piano duo CEEYS, invites open-minded music lovers to discover today's contemporary composers and performers.
From avant-garde to pop, Q3A holds a mirror to the eclectic architecture of Potsdam, from neo-classical palaces to prefabricated "Plattenbauten" (panelhouses). These Communist-era buildings gave Q3A its name, which is an abbreviation for "Querwandbau" (cross-wall construction).
Q3A takes place every year in april at Fabrik Potsdam since 2017, in partnership with Dutch music initiative Fluister, piano & coffee co., Traurig und Untanzbar, Klavins Piano Manufaktúra Kft., SOMA Laboratory, 30CC and Brudenell Piano Sessions. It also joins Piano Day, an annual worldwide event and platform for piano related projects founded by a group of likeminded people around pianist and composer Nils Frahm, that takes place on the 88th day of the year because of the number of keys on the instrument being celebrated.
Q3A hosted 72 artists from 23 different countries, and takes place at Fabrik Potsdam, near the world-famous film town Babelsberg, less than an hour away from Berlin.

When the year is coming to its end we are surrounded by that typical NOVEMBERSTIMMUNG, it is time for a musical encounter of the experimental and the classical, between avantgarde, ambient and pop. This infamous night – carefully curated by brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke, the founders of Q3Ambientfest in Potsdam also known as the renowned cello-piano duo CEEYS – invites open-minded music lovers to meet a handpicked selection of established and aspiring contemporary musicians and composers.
What is more, the event aims to establish a special bond between artists, audience and the fading year. The 11th month of year is one filled with melancholy, one in which personal experiences meet historical events – and so the encounter opens up space for everyone involved to find inspiration, dwell in the here and now, evaluate and appreciate and partake in a delicate sound experience against the backdrop of a colorful concert night.

Welcome to HAUS2KONZERTE since 2020.
The editions are carfully curated by brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke, founders of Q3Ambientfest in Potsdam also known as the renowned cello-piano duo CEEYS. You will find some inspiration by listening and watching the handpicked international lineup.
Since 2020 CEEYS collaborate with freiLand Potsdam and join Piano Day. We are also deeply thankful to hausZwei/Libertalia e.V. for presenting and supporting this close encounter with contemporary music.

On April 27th Canterbury Golf Club hosted the Senior PGA Championship Media Day. On stage, in front of a room full of local media outlets, Defending Champion Jay Haas was joined by Jim Remy, president of the PGA of America; Doug Grabert, NBC Sports golf director; and Bill Townsend, general chairman of the 70th Senior PGA Championship.
These gentlemen discussed details about the Championship, relived past Senior PGA moments and shared their memories of Canterbury.
The following are some of their quotes from the press conference. To read the full transcript, visit www.SeniorPGA2009.com.
Bill Townsend – General Chair for the 70th Senior PGA Championship
"I want to roll out the red carpet for the thousands of spectators, the people that really care and want to see great golfers like Jay, here to my left, play up close and personal. The red carpet is out for you, and I hope to see you in the end of May."
Jim Remy – President of the PGA of America
Explaining one of his duties as the new president of the PGA of America:
"I want to take the opportunity to tell you that one of the great honors I have as president of the PGA of America is to make phone calls to recipients of awards and tell them they have won an award. And one of my most exciting days was the day I got to call Mr. Powell, Bill Powell, to let him know that he is the Distinguished Service Award winner for 2009." Mr. Powell was on-hand at the press conference with his daughter, World Golf Hall of Fame member, Renee Powell.
Doug Grabert — NBC Sports Golf Director and Cleveland native who got his start with local NBC affiliate WKYC
Regarding the weather last fall when NBC came out to scout the course for the best camera locations:
"When we came out in October, it was so cold, they had to go out and find gloves in the lost and found at Canterbury. It was 30 degrees, no golf to be played, straw on the greens and fairways, but we really appreciated getting the gloves."
Discussing his memories of Canterbury:
"… the biggest memory I have from Canterbury is as a high school boy back in the early '70s. The PGA of America had a rule at that point … that (professionals) had to use local caddies at the PGA Championship. I remember 10 days before the event sitting out on the patio on an evening, nervous as I am right now, and they started pulling names out of a hat. As they are going along, there are players, Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and then they called my name and out of the hat they pulled Raymond Floyd. So that ended up being something for a high school boy. A memory I'll never forget."
Jay Haas – Defending Senior PGA Champion
Referencing his celebratory pose after winning the 2008 Senior PGA Championship:
"If any of you can take that trophy with one arm and lift it above your head, we'll give you an exemption into the tournament in May."
Regarding his defeat during the 1995 Ryder Cup at Oak Hill Country Club. With three holes to play, Haas was down three strokes. If he could tie his match the U.S. would have won the Ryder Cup.:
"And I happened to win 16 and then won 17 with a par, so now I got on 18 tee, and it's a very difficult hole. If you've been to Oak Hill, it's quite challenging. But I almost choked my guts out basically, but as you can see (referencing video highlighting his career) I was using one of those wooden drivers. Today, we have these big heads, you can't hardly miss one. I hit a terrible drive."
On being the defending champion of the Senior PGA Championship:
"To have my name on that trophy a couple times, is, like I said, the crown achievement of my career. To be here as a defender is really special."
When asked if technology improvements have helped the seniors more than the regular TOUR player?:
"For me, I tell people all the time, in the early 80s when they first started doing the statistics, and my first year, I was about 252, 253 was my average driving distance. And for the last six or eight years, it's been about anywhere from 275 to 278, somewhere in there. So, 25 yards longer, 25 years older, that doesn't compute."

Joseph Melillo fought for benefits as one of three same-sex couples who sued the state in 1991 seeking marriage licenses, sparking a statewide and national debate.
"We weren't looking for the marriage on paper -- that's not what we were fighting for -- but the benefits that came with it," said Pat Lagon, Melillo's partner of nearly 30 years.
Melillo, 59, of Pearl City died Tuesday after a nearly year-long battle with throat cancer, with Lagon at his side.
The two achieved what they had set out for -- reciprocal benefits without the formality of a marriage ceremony -- although voters passed a constitutional amendment in 1999 affirming the Legislature's authority to reserve marriage to opposite-sex couples.
"I miss him. I really miss him holding me," said Lagon.
Lagon fell asleep holding Melillo's hands at about 3:30 a.m. at Kaiser Medical Center, only to be awakened not even 20 minutes later by a nurse and told that Melillo had died.
The secret to their lasting relationship was believing and trusting in each other, he said.
"We trusted each other so much we never did anything wrong in each other's eyes," Lagon said.
After their court case became moot in 1999 with passage of the constitutional amendment, the two resumed their private lives running their T-shirt silk-screening business, which they eventually lost to arson. They fell back on catering. Melillo was a credentialed chef who presided over the kitchen at Washington Place at one point and had cooked for five-star generals, Barbra Streisand and distinguished artist and author Jean Charlot.
But while cleaning up their silk-screening shop after the fire, Melillo developed a staph infection from a cut on his finger. A visit to the doctor uncovered a lump in his throat that was diagnosed as throat cancer.
Melillo withdrew from the public after that, not wanting to talk to anybody, Lagon said. His family and friends did not know and only began learning about Melillo's condition recently.
After two months of radiation and chemotherapy, Melillo was allowed to go home where Lagon was able to care for him. He had to eat through a feeding tube, and it appeared as though he was getting better. But a month ago he started hemorrhaging, which doctors said meant the cancer could not be stopped.
Melillo, who came to the islands at age 17, fell in love with Hawaii and took up hula, played the ukulele and dabbled in everything, said longtime friend Ron Hokland. "The last half of his life, he was on Hawaii time."
Melillo was a minister who conducted marriages, was into real estate, graduated from the University of Hawaii with a degree in chemistry and was also the first male to graduate from the home economics program at UH.
Longtime civil and gay rights activist Bill Woods recalls one Sunday night when he invited over Melillo and a bunch of friends.
Melillo brought an elaborate white chocolate mousse cake with chocolate shavings 6 to 7 inches high.
"It was memorable," Woods said.
Woods would later ask Melillo and Lagon to be one of three same-sex couples named as plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
Recently, the son of friends who had stayed with them for a while called and left a message on Lagon's phone thanking Melillo, saying, "Without him I never would have learned everyone is the same -- gay or straight -- no one is different."
"That's the way Joe was. He loved letting people know they can live together if they try," Lagon said.

The Pica Beats:: Beating Back the Claws of the Cold (Album Review)
The Pica Beats is the project of Vermont transplant Ryan Barrett. Barrett writes all the words and music and plays several instruments, while drummer Colin English and a cast of local contributors round out a musically fleshy record. With a motley grab-bag of musicians and instruments (Barrett himself has an affinity for the sitar), it's a bit of a surprise, then, that Beating Back the Claws of the Cold is so samey.
Of the record's first six songs, none stand apart, and the two instrumentals ("Martine, as Heavy Lifter" and "Beta.Space.Hit") are more filler than a record like this can support. The bouncy "Summer Cutting Kale," built around a fluttery synth figure, is nice, but at five-and-a-half minutes overstays its welcome. This is a problem found on many of these songs, as eight of the eleven top four minutes.
On Claws' second half, The Pica Beats struggle mightily to punch-up mid-tempo numbers like "Cognac & Rum" and "Hope, Was Not a Smith Family Tradition." Unfortunately, they're undercut by Barrett's awkward delivery (he's a sort of Win Butler/Colin Meloy mash-up) and overstuffing of relatively simple songs with synthesizers, horns, and multi-tracked vocal choirs. Only "Shallow Dive" stands out; Barrett's vocal melody matches up nicely with a twinkly guitar line and sweeping, chilly synths.
A big part of enjoying Beating Back the Claws of the Cold depends on one's taste for Barrett's ultra-quavery voice and the larger-than-life arrangements. The album's an impressive document of Barrett's talent, but I don't hear the hooks that similar acts like Belle & Sebastian built their name on. Without them, The Pica Beats remain an also-ran.
1. Poor Old Ra 2. Martine, as Heavy Lifter 3. Summer Cutting Kale 4. Shrinking Violets 5. Beta.Space.Hit 6. Beating Back the Claws of the Cold 7. Cognac & Rum 8. Hope, Was Not a Smith Family Tradition 9. Hikikomori & the Rental Sisters 10. Shallow Dive 11. Territoire

This morning I went with my mom & 3 of my girlfriends to try on wedding dresses for the first time! (insert obligatory girlie squeal here) I was so excited, and a little nervous actually. Whenever I go shopping and try clothes on I tend to always throw out an "Oh my god, I LOVE this!", then buy it, let it sit in my closet for awhile, try it on again & decide I really don't love it all that much. Oops! Thankfully most stores have a good return policy. Anyways, I was afraid that I would fall in love with too many dresses & end up getting overwhelmed with narrowing it down to just one but that wasn't really the case.
I left the store without purchasing a dress today, which was my intention, but now I'm trying to decide which of my favourite two is THE ONE. I can be very indecisive and this is a big decision so I don't want to pick the wrong one. They're both beautiful gowns so we'll see which one keeps appearing in my dreams…
I decided to wear the berry midi dress that I purchased yesterday & received lots of compliments on the colour – told you ladies! I paired it with a leopard print circle scarf & cognac booties. It was a nice day out today – I love that crisp feeling in the air during the Fall when the sun's still shining & the leaves are falling. Since we weren't allowed coffee in the salon with us we all grabbed a Pumpkin Spice Latte when we were finished – the perfect drink for this season.

The permanent risk monitoring
The tailor-made monitoring of your regular customers.
Nothing is as constant as change. This is also true for your business partners. Within this context, it is all about risks that are difficult to assess. Dependence on important suppliers or large customers whom you are doing good business with will easily make one forget about the usual precautions. Do not forget that business deals are not complete until your invoice is paid! It is up to you to decide which companies you wish to monitor, and to manage their list quite simply via the Internet.
Creditreform processes a large volume of data every day that make it possible to keep the database up to date. Therefore the data available to you within the permanent monitoring process will always be up to date. You will be informed immediately as soon as we become aware of any relevant changes, be it through new debt enforcement information or debt collection reports, official publications on changes in the commercial register or other official registers, or through news from the media.
Creditreform offers a modular package of monitoring products. It will always be up to you to decide what information is relevant to you. You may wish to be informed on important official publications only, or you may be specifically interested in changes in the commercial register, or else you prefer to include the whole range of financially relevant operations. Thanks to the opportunity to integrate reports and information in your own applications through an interface, you will benefit from a highly efficient credit risk and receivables management system, tailor-made specifically for your individual requirements.

Dublin, Ireland – Home Concierge, already known for their superior customer service and stellar cleaning quality, have now started using a new range of non-toxic cleaning products from their new Irish supplier. They are designed to provide homes and businesses with the same powerful clean, without the harmful chemicals used by most other companies.
"We have always strived to go above and beyond when it comes to our cleaning services, and it seemed only natural that we become known for our use of non-toxic products, as well as our top rated service," explains company spokesperson, Oisin McHale.
"When cleaning your home, you want to remove things like germs and bacteria that could make you and your family sick, but you don't want to use harmful chemicals that could also cause serious health problems or surface damage over time. Our new multi-purpose cleaner is based on orange oil, so only has a very mild, natural fragrance. It's also safe enough to use in any catering area, as it contains a powerful but safe sanitiser. The product contains no dyes of any kind and when diluted it also carries no COSHH. Another great product is our new oven cleaner. Oven cleaning chemicals are notoriously harsh and caustic, but our new product has one of the lowest toxic levels possible to get the job done and our washroom cleaner uses citric and sulphamic acid instead of dangerous hydrochloric acid. The more you learn about us and about our family and pet-friendly services, the more you're going to wish you found us sooner."
The new line of cleaning products used by Home Concierge are also eco-friendly in two ways: economically and ecologically. Products are 100% Irish made, which helps to lower their carbon footprint. Each cleaning product is also supplied in a highly concentrated form, which means less packaging and less waste. Just one 5L bottle creates 200 ready to use spray bottles. All of the new cleaning products used by Home Concierge contain 100% biodegradable ingredients and 100% recyclable packaging.
This new range of products will also ensure that Home Concierge's employees aren't being exposed to harsh chemicals everyday which will protect their health in the long-term.
Home Concierge work hard to simplify their service, as well as the lives of their clients. Their website is user friendly, and allows for fast and safe booking of cleaning services from a PC, smartphone or tablet. Home Concierge is located at Suite 24, 20 Harcourt Street in Dublin 2, Ireland. The company can be reached by phone at 1800 911 096 or from their website, https://homeconcierge.ie/.

I was away again this weekend and I'm attempting to get back into the habit of practing yoga on a regular basis. I've done classes every Saturday for the past month so when away this weekend I aimed to still do some to not miss some.
I was fortunately staying with a friend so I didn't need to bring a yoga mat and there was space in her livingroom for me to practice.
I did a few yoga poses while around the markets and I've posted photos of them on Instagram.
I also did a nice short practice but I got asked about various poses I was doing and why. It was good to share my practice with others who don't currently do yoga but still it wasn't ideal.
Still a bit of practice is better than none.

Canada's Veilleux secures Tour start for Europcar
The 25-year-old won the opening stage at the Criterium du Dauphine and held the leader's jersey for three days
A stage victory at the Critérium du Dauphiné last week helped David Veilleux punch his ticket for a start at the Tour de France.
The 25-year-old Quebecois confirmed on his website that Europcar has selected him to race the Tour, which begins June 29 on Corsica.
"It's now official, my team chose me to participate in the 2013 Tour de France," Veilleux wrote. "I am extremely pleased by this news. I'm living a childhood dream and all my years of perseverance and discipline are being rewarded."
Veilleux, who joined Europcar in 2011, will become the first Quebec-born cyclist to race the Tour.
Veilleux obviously quickly adjusted to the demands of the European peloton.
He enjoyed a solid 2012 season, riding in the main breakaway at Paris-Roubaix for the second year in a row, and later winning the Tre Valli Varesine semi-classic.
After a busy spring classics season in 2013, he's shown solid form over the past month, finishing second in stage 2 at the Rhone-Alpes-Isere tour in May, and then scoring his biggest win of his pro career with a victory in stage 1 at the Critérium du Dauphiné.
Veilleux attacked out of a breakaway in a hilly, challenging course around Champéry to take the win and the leader's jersey by nearly two minutes. He held the lead for three days, eventually finishing 60th behind winner Chris Froome (Sky).
That performance helped seal the deal for Europcar brass.
The French outfit will bring Pierre Rolland, who is looking to improve on his eighth overall last year, and perennial attacker Thomas Voeckler, who also snagged a stage win at the Dauphiné.
Other Canadians likely to start include Svein Tuft (Orica-GreenEdge) and Ryder Hesjedal (Garmin-Sharp), who crashed heavily at the Tour de Suisse. Garmin officials are still waiting to see how he recovers before making a decision on whether he'll be able to start the Tour.

*Student attendance is taken every day in every class and students are required by law to be in class and on time.
Students who have a partial day absence are required to communicate with their teachers re: assignments due that day, assessments given that day (either before they leave or after they return to campus).

Automatic Dialer
The district automatic dialer program attempts to call home and notify parents of unexcused absences. The automatic dialer is programmed to call the home of any student who has an unverified absence between the hours of 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Calls are made every day but often parents cannot be reached and messages are left on answering machines or voicemail. Parents are responsible if students pick up messages and fail to pass the message to a parent in a timely fashion. If you feel the absence was in error, please have your student contact the teacher directly or go to the Attendance Office for an attendance printout.
Agreement for Students 18 years of Age
Students who are 18 years old may be allowed to excuse their own absences. A parent/guardian and the 18 year old student must sign a release form in the presence of an administrator.
Delivering Message or Personal Items
Since it is our desire to maintain a learning environment that is uninterrupted, the Attendance Office will not deliver items or messages to students in non-emergency situations. Students are responsible for bringing everything they may need at the start of the school day. This includes homework assignments, study materials, uniforms, athletic equipment, and lunches. We do not relay phone messages to students except in the case of an emergency. Please remind the students of doctor and other appointments and transportation arrangements before the student leaves home in the morning. We appreciate your understanding that instructional time should not be interrupted.

The second highest ranking official at North Korea's embassy in London has defected to South Korea, according to the South Korean Unification Ministry.
Thae Yong Ho has arrived with his family in the South Korean capital of Seoul, said ministry spokesman Jeong Joon-hee. "They are currently under government protection," Jeong told reporters at a news conference.
Jeong said Thae told South Korean officials he defected out of disgust with the government of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, a desire for South Korean democracy and because of concern over his children's future.
It is believed Thae was stationed for ten years at North Korea's embassy in London, where he was responsible for managing the image of North Korea, which has been criticized for its nuclear weapons program and its human rights record. Thae is believed to be the most senior North Korean diplomat to defect to South Korea.
In Washington, the State Department declined to comment on the specifics of "this case," but called for the protection of North Korean refugees and asylum seekers.
The most senior North Korean government official to defect to the South was Hwang Jang-yop, a top ruling Worker's Party official who sought asylum in 1997.
Defections from North Korea have received a lot of attention recently, primarily due to the April defection of a group of waitresses and their manager who were employed at a North Korean restaurant in China.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Carolyn from Phelityl Night Cream I had not used this cream for several years, & was excited to open a new jar. I am normally an Active Pheltiyl user even though I need to keep it away from my oily areas. Active Phelityl is the original cream I started out with. I am so disappointed, when compared to the Active Phelityl, the Phelityl Night Cream fells like an average cream from the drug store. Please bring back Dr Laszlo's formulas...Phelityl Lotion for Am & PM. I will stick with my Active Phelityl Cream & bring back the Shake-It. The younger Laszlo lovers you cater to do not know what they are missing with the original formulas. Laszlo Lifer

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jess7385 from Magic in jar This product is Great! I had the pleasure of trying Phelityl Night Cream for free from Influenster. I LOVED the packaging (clean and classy). The cream is very rich-- but doesnt leave your skin feeling greasy.It's lightly scented, which is refreshing . I used this product at night as part of my moisturizing & hydrating routine after showering.I was in search of a great cream for after showering and totally hit the jackpot with this one! I'm officially hooked! It absorbed into my skin like super fast and left my face feeling super soft and definitely nourished. I would try other products from this brand just based upon the quality of this item.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Frvrdancgrl from Smooth skin made easy Phelityl Night Cream is possibly my new favorite product. It feels luxurious, but is so light weight on my skin. It was easy to apply and I didn't feel like I had to use a ton of it to feel the effects. Sometimes night creams make my feel sticky and gross, but this cream felt so natural I didn't even know it was there. And in the morning, my skin was still fresh, smooth, and felt so nourished! I feel so spoiled by this night cream and would definitely recommend it to anyone who suffers from chronically dry skin! PS. I received this product free for testing In exchange for my honest review, but all opinions are my own!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Angie Motto from Winter Hero! I've been testing out the night cream this entire week. It's a very thick cream that's meant to be applied at night. Once it's on it absorbs fairly quickly. It doesn't feel greasy or heavy. I noticed after the third morning my skin was hydrated and felt plump. That's pretty unusual for my skin. I can say with confidence it was this night cream since it's the only new addition to my skin. I'm usually a glycolic acid and other acids kind of girl. But this cream is making me rethink that! This is more of a basic night cream to hydrate and treat lightly but the results are real! I am happy to say I received this free for testing. But I will continue to use!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lorie from Amazing product I was very hesitant at first to try this night cream. My skin has been prone to the "late 30's breakouts" and I did not want a product to make it worse. I read a lot of reviews a about this cream and was clocked online at 1:00. After trying this for a couple of weeks I have to say that I am hooked! No breakouts, no shine, no oily breakthrough! The cream is so light yet sufficiently moisturizes all my dry areas. I love this so much that I have even started wearing this during the day under my foundation (Erno, of course!) It feels so glamorous opening that glass jar and applying it - it has become my favorite part of my skincare routine!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bklynmaven from Nourishing and Nurturing My combination skin really appreciates the Phelityl Night Cream. First, the little spatula really tries to keep the cream sanitary. I take about a pea size amount and it spreads easily on the face. The scent smells slightly of cloves- very pleasant and not over-powering. The cream is thick without feeling heavy but it is not super light like a whipped moisturizer. Applied, it sinks in easily and leaves no residue. I don't find myself to be oily in the morning, just hydrated and refreshed. I've only used this product for about two weeks and definitely see an improvement in the texture of my skin. I received this product free for testing purposes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by HeatherNicoleP from Incredible! Never in my life have I used a night cream as lavish as this product, I fell in love instantly! The packaging is so simple yet so beautiful, I really enjoy that it has a nice weight to it. I appreciate that it comes with a little spatula so you don't need to stick your fingers in the jar. The cream has a wonderful creamy consistency, feels like it is going to be heavy on the skin but is pleasantly lightweight and not greasy feeling at all! A little goes a long way and it absorbs quickly. Left my skin so soft and it looked amazing! It smells very nice also. I received this product complimentary from Influenster but all opinions are my own.

Rated 5 out of 5 by melodypitts from Excellent night cream I received this Erno Laszlo Phelityl night cream for free from influenster for testing and submitting a review. I have used this product for about a month now and I have to say that I really like this product. I use it at night before bed. It feels super creamy and goes on smooth. It absorbs completely without leaving a white residue. A little goes a long way so it will last a good amount of time before it runs out. When I wake the next morning my skin is supple and moisturized. I have a nice glow. I also like the sleek and modern design of the container.

What is your best night cream for very dry 73 yr ? Not sensitive, normal but dry
I am 65 years old, with normal skin. Have use Phelityl night cream (and day cream) for years, and like it very much. I have found some of the other night creams, e.g. Firmarine, create an allergic reaction, so steer away from that. Have also used another on "Hyro...." (not sure of full name), when Phelityl out of stock. You may want to look at that - it may be more suited to slightly dryer skin.

Unless I'm mistaken, there was only one stadium-related ballot measure yesterday, and voters in Wilmington, North Carolina decisively rejected a proposal to spend $37 million on a facility to bring a single-A Atlanta Braves farm club to town. (The current Braves affiliates at that level are the Lynchburg Hillcats and the Rome Braves, but stadium developer Mandalay Baseball could always have moved a different team and re-affiliated it with the Braves instead of moving one of those.)
This is no surprise when you look at early polling, which showed the stadium plan to be overwhelmingly unpopular. And even less of a surprise considering the campaign spending on the ballot measure, which looks to have been about $113,000 on the pro side, and $32,432 on the con side. That's well beneath the threshold of the 100-to-1 rule, which states that only referendums in which stadium boosters outspend opponents by more than a 100-to-1 margin (more or less) have a chance at passage. The public will can still beat big money in this country, at least until it's BIG big money.

Accordingly, the budget revenue is projected at VND1,019 trillion (US$45.9 billion), while total spending will be VND1,273 trillion ($57.3 billion), resulting in a deficit of VND254 trillion (nearly $11.3 billion), equivalent to 4.95 per cent of GDP.
The resolution calls on the Government to implement a tight fiscal policy together with monetary policy in order to support production and business, continue stabilising the macro economy, control inflation, and ensure higher economic growth than in 2015.
Attention must be paid to intensifying supervision over and transparency of budget use, especially in the fields prone to corruption and wastefulness, cutting down unnecessary and ineffective expenses, and strengthening inspections to limit tax losses and prevent smuggling and trade fraud.
According to the resolution, from January 1, 2016, the monthly pay for people with retirement pensions of less than 2 million dong and pre-school teachers who worked before 1995 will be stipulated as the National Assembly's Resolution No.78/2014/QH13 issued on November 10, 2014.
Meanwhile, the minimum wage for public servants and those working in armed forces will be raised to VND1,210,000 per month from the current VND1,150,000. Retirement pensions and allowances for policy beneficiaries will maintain an 8 per cent increase, the same as in 2015.
Next year, VND60 trillion ($2.7 billion) worth of Government bonds will be issued to invest in projects using Government bond capital decided by the legislature.
Vice Chairman of the NA Committee on Social Affairs Bui Sy Loi attributed the wage increase of 5 per cent amid current budgetary difficulties to the great salary reform efforts of the government.
The government should come up with a feasible solution for keeping inflation in check to prevent a negative impact from the wage increase. It is also imperative to revamp the administrative apparatus and downsize the number of incapable staff so as to boost salary reform more effectively in line with the principle increasing our productivity, Loi said.
Deputy Tran Hoang Ngan of HCM City said this wage increase was in line with the Government's road map of wage increases. The NA's decision to adjust wage increases was quite suitable with the current situation.
Deputy Bui Duc Thu of Lai Chau said that in the current economic situation, some labourers and low-income earners have to deal with an extremely unstable life. Therefore, wage adjustment was very essential and urgent. Thu attributed the slow road map of wage increases to the difficulties in budget balancing in recent years. It can help increase wages for retied people and very low-income people only.
A few months ago, Viet Nam's National Wage Council has voted for a 12.4 per cent minimum wage increase in 2016. According to the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA), increases will also take place in 2017.
In 2015, the minimum wage across Viet Nam was increased by 13 per cent to 15 per cent to VND2.15 million to VND3.1 million ($96 to $138).
MOLISA's "Minimum Wage Adjustment Road Map" to 2020 suggests that the minimum wage in 2020 will be around VND4.8 million ($213) in Region One and VND3.4 million ($151) in Region Four.
Viet Nam has a four-tiered minimum wage scheme based on location. Region One, which includes Ha Noi, Hai Phong and HCM City, has the highest minimum wage. Region Four, which includes the least developed parts of Viet Nam, has the lowest.
Every October, enterprises have to propose a plan to raise wages for the next year. For its part, the Government has to decide on it no later than November so that enterprises can make their financial plans accordingly. — VNS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Chris Hogan knows a thing or two about what it takes to reach the Super Bowl, having gone the past three seasons with the New England Patriots.
The 31-year-old wide receiver believes his new team, the Carolina Panthers, has the talent to get there -- this season.
"Oh, yeah!" Hogan said Thursday as the Panthers wrapped up a three-day mandatory minicamp, their final practice before they gather for training camp July 24. "It seems like to me all the tools are there."
"[Offensively], we have a lot of talent, a lot of good guys. Our defense, they look pretty scary on paper."
What the Panthers don't have is Tom Brady, a six-time Super Bowl champion, a four-time Super Bowl MVP, a three-time NFL Most Valuable Player and a 14-time Pro Bowl selection.
Carolina quarterback Cam Newton is coming off his second shoulder surgery in three offseasons. Although all signs point to him being ready for the regular season, he threw on a limited basis in minicamp and didn't throw at all during team drills.
Much of how Carolina does this season depends on Newton staying healthy. The same could be said about Brady and New England.
Hogan said Newton and Brady are two "totally different players" in their day-to-day routine and approach to practice. Newton is more kidlike, running 50 yards downfield to hip-bump a teammate after a big play and yelling like he's on a schoolyard all the way.
Brady has a more businesslike approach.
But the two quarterbacks, Hogan said, have one thing in common that gives Carolina a chance.
"That competitive nature, it's there," Hogan said. "When it comes time to strap on the pads and play football, their focus is on one goal and that's winning football games.
"Cam wants to win. You can tell that right away from talking to him and being around him."
Hogan likes the pieces around Newton, starting with running back Christian McCaffrey, who fell just shy last season of becoming the third back in NFL history to have 1,000 yards rushing and receiving in the same season.
New England didn't have a back like McCaffrey, filling the role by committee. So that's a plus for the Panthers.
"He's been a lot of fun to be around, just his overall work ethic and seeing how he goes about his process," Hogan said of McCaffrey.
Hogan also likes the receivers Newton has around him in addition to McCaffrey, from Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen to No. 1 wide receiver DJ Moore and Curtis Samuel.
"These are some of the most competitive guys I've been around," Hogan said.
Brady must replace some of his top receivers, including tight end Rob Gronkowski (retired), Cordarrelle Patterson and Hogan. He also will have a new left tackle after Trent Brown signed with Oakland.
Defensively, with the exception of last season, the Panthers statistically have been on par or better than the Patriots over the past six seasons. The addition of six-time Pro Bowl lineman Gerald McCoy and Pro Bowl linebacker/end Bruce Irvin to a group that already includes Kawann Short and Luke Kuechly has Hogan "happy they're on our side."
Hogan was 2-1 with New England in Super Bowls. He had arguably his best NFL game in the Patriots' loss to Philadelphia following the 2017 season. He had six catches for 128 yards and a touchdown.
Although he didn't have a catch in last season's Super Bowl victory against the Rams, Hogan had a spectacular one-handed catch on third-and-8 in the AFC Championship Game against Kansas City that kept alive a drive that gave New England the lead in a game it eventually won in overtime.
Hogan has 34 catches for 542 yards and four touchdowns in nine career playoff games.
"A very veteran guy, a smart, crafty receiver," Carolina coach Ron Rivera said of Hogan. "The young guys we have can be impacted by that. He's been there, been a big part of a championship and it's been good to watch him interact with the other receivers.
"Definitely a big plus."
If Hogan duplicates his three-season New England average of 35.6 catches, 550.3 yards and four touchdowns with Carolina, he'll be a big plus and a bargain, as he's playing on a one-year deal that maxes out at $2 million.
He also brings the ability to separate -- a quality the receiving corps has been missing, the lack of which sometimes forced Newton to hold onto the ball too long. According to Next Gen Stats, Hogan led all receivers last season with an average of 4.1 yards of separation.
That he brings a winning attitude also helps. You can't help but develop that playing in a culture called the "Patriot Way."
And while the Carolina culture is different, there is a common thread Hogan likes.
"The overall competitiveness," Hogan said. "At the end of the day, we're out here trying to win football games and be playing in January."

How many of us looked at this ad back in 1988 and thought, "Who needs an old race car?"
Back in 1988 old racing cars weren't seen as collectible. Therefore, whoever took a dust-gathering XD off Dick Johnson's hands for somewhere south of 25 grand probably wasn't doing it in the hope of making a profit. That just happened.
The car they call Tru Blu is now housed in the extensive Bowden Collection, from where it often emerges for on-track demonstrations. We doubt you will get a chance to buy it but the XD must rank just behind the Moffat Phase 3, also owned by the Bowdens, as Australia's most recognisable (and perhaps valuable) Falcon race car.
Then $25,000 Now $400,000+

A direct replacement for the company's previous 1D Mark III model, the Canon EOS-1D Mark IV uses a new CMOS image sensor and dual DIGIC 4 image processors, which together have allowed Canon to offer both an increase in image resolution to 16.1 megapixels, along with a huge step forwards in the camera's ISO sensitivity range which now reaches as high as an expanded ISO 102,400 setting. Adopted from the previous EOS 7D model, there's also a new higher-resolution LCD display with improved reflection / glare resistance in the 1D Mark IV.
The Canon EOS-1D Mk IV also has a significantly uprated autofocus system, and high definition video capability at resolutions up to 1,920 x 1,080 pixels with a jack allowing optional use of an external stereo mic. The 1D Mk IV also supports UDMA Mode 6 CompactFlash cards, adds Canon's Peripheral Illumination Correction technology, debuts a new generation of Canon's Auto Lighting Optimizer function, and quite a bit more besides
The newly published 1D Mk IV white paper can be found in Canon's Digital Learning Center, and comes in at a whopping 123 pages long. Inside, you'll find detailed specifications, summaries of changes from the previous model, and of new and improved features, as well as detailed discussion of the AF system, high ISO performance, HD video capture, new CMOS sensor, improved JPEG workflow, bundled software and well over a dozen other notable features. The EOS-1D Mark IV first-look videos are also found in the Digital Learning Center. Alongside previous videos on the AF system and image quality, there are two new videos covering HD video capture and the camera's controls and custom functions.
For more details on the Mk IV digital SLR beyond what's available from Canon, read our 1D Mk IV preview.

Rising stress in the City is driving more than two out of three investment bank staff to consider quitting their job – but employees believe talking about stress or mental health issues to management will damage their careers, new research from MetLife shows.
Its study among decision makers at financial institutions found that two out of five (40%) think their job is extremely stressful, with 67% considering quitting their jobs in the next year if stress levels do not improve.
However, despite the impact of stress on their work and home lives, around 70% believe that admitting to suffering from anxiety or mental health issues will damage their career prospects. Despite the fact research shows that investment banks are putting money into tackling stress and investing in support for staff, just 18% of employees say their organisation has a positive attitude to mental health issues.
The research also shows that a majority of investment banks are putting money behind programmes designed to tackle stress and provide support for staff; 67% of employees say they are provided with resilience training to help them cope with the stress of work.
The wider wellbeing agenda is supported at financial institutions, with 81% of staff having access to health advice and almost all (97%) offered subsidised gym membership. Around 88% receive employee assistance programmes that include counselling.
The research shows financial institutions are way ahead of other employers in supporting wellbeing; earlier MetLife research found just 10% of all employees are offered subsidised gym membership while 12% have access to health advice.
But despite the data, other less costly but potentially more effective approaches are not being offered. Only 44% are offered flexible working and half of those questioned say they are working 25 or more weekends a year.
Tom Gaynor, Employee Benefits Director at MetLife UK said: "Investment banks are, on paper, making a significant commitment to tackling stress and mental health issues amongst their workforces and it is pleasing to see the investments reported in resilience training and wellness at work initiatives.
"Despite this, a significant taboo still exists, as reflected by the high percentage of employees who said they think talking about their mental health will damage their career prospects.
"We know from our 2014 Employee Benefit Trends study that a key driver in helping employees feel valued and engaged in their company is their line manager. This latest research infers that, in addition to putting the monetary investment into programmes for employees, investment banks must address employee perceptions that line managers will not be supportive of an employee asking for help."

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is being widely mocked over the internet after he interrupted a woman during a town hall to admonish her over using the word "mankind" in her question, telling her to instead use "peoplekind." Trudeau was hosting a Q&A at MacEwan University in Edmonton on Thursday as part of a cross-country tour which began in January.
Aimee, a member of South Korean feminist church World Mission Society Church of God, asked a question about removing Canadian restrictions on religious organizations when Trudeau corrected her.
Aimee: We came here today to ask you to also look into the policies that religious charitable organizations have in our legislations so that it can also be changed because maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind.
Trudeau: We -- we like to say "peoplekind," not necessarily "mankind" 'cause it's more inclusive.
Aimee tells the Daily Mail that she wasn't offended by Trudeau's comment, saying "It wasn't negative,' and adding "Did it look like I was bothered by it?"
And while Aimee may not have been bothered per-se, Twitter was merciless to the politically correct Prime Minister:
Justin Trudeau is what would happen if the song "Imagine" took human form and then ate a Tide Pod.— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) February 6, 2018
It is possible that these comments were even more thoughtless than the "peoplekind" correction of an earnest young woman even though that's hard to believe... https://t.co/OOhRvyZ6nR— Jordan B Peterson (@jordanbpeterson) February 6, 2018
"Mankind" is now politically incorrect. We must now say "peoplekind." Thanks Justin Trudeau.— Ian Miles Cheong (@stillgray) February 6, 2018
Deus Ex: Peoplekind Divided
*NEW:— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 6, 2018
There's just one problem with your 'peoplekind' nonsense, @JustinTrudeau: the word 'woman' has 'man' in it.
Spin your PC-crazed, virtue-signalling feminist way out of that!

Justin Trudeau lands on the moon: "That's one small step for people, one giant leap for #peoplekind."— J.J. McCullough (@JJ_McCullough) February 5, 2018
Justin Trudeau's term, "peoplekind," is also sexist.— Ali A. Rizvi (@aliamjadrizvi) February 6, 2018
"People" is plural for "person."
See what I see?
What about daughters?
Per-SON is a gendered term, and therefore, "people" is too.
The correct term, if we do elect to use it, is:

I have bad news for those candidates out there who have been frustrated by slow, drawn-out hiring processes: It seems like they are getting longer. Worrying research from Glassdoor shows that the average length of the interview process increased from 13 days to 23 days between 2011 and 2015.
The reason for this is that employers who have been burned by bad hires are growing more risk averse. As a result, they have begun to incorporate more background screening, skill verifications, and cultural/personality assessments into their hiring processes.
But that doesn't mean that you, the candidate, have to sit down, shut up, and accept painfully slow hiring processes. Here are a five ways you can subtly nudge potential employers into speeding up a bit:
1. Have Your References on Standby
More and more employers are doing background checks, and one thing you can do to eliminate delays in this piece of the process is to make sure your references are ready. If possible, you should contact your references prior to the interview process and give them a heads-up. That way, they'll be primed and ready to go when the time is right. Your potential won't have to play phone tag with them.
2. Chase Your References
You can take it a step further by ensuring that making sure that your potential employers' reference request doesn't get pushed to the bottom of your references' to-do lists. Find out when the employer is going to make the request, and the nudge your references – just a little bit – to respond as soon as they can. Don't demand that they get to it ASAP – just "check in" with them to see how things are going. That should be enough to get your references moving.
3. Keep the Employer Informed of Your Progress With Other Applications
If you have phone, email, or face-to-face contact with the employer, tell them about other jobs you have applied for and any interviews you've had so far. This information will show the employer that you are in demand, and the hiring manager will likely feel some urgency regarding your candidacy. If the hiring manager really wants you, they'll be concerned that they might lose you to a competitor, and they will be motivated to speed up the process as much as possible.
4. Ask the Employer About Timelines and Next Steps
Asking about next steps will communicate your eagerness to the employer – and it will also get the employer thinking about moving forward.
In fact, bringing up next steps may even give you the chance to actively push the process forward. For example, you might get the opportunity to submit your references during the interview, rather than waiting for the employer to call you for references.
5. At the End of the Interview, Ask About Any Concerns the Employer Has About Your Candidacy
It's likely that the employer may have one or two concerns about your application. Asking this question gives you the chance to address those concerns during the interview itself. That means the hiring manager won't have to sit and muse on them for a few days.
You can do a lot to help speed up the hiring process, but it should be noted that, at times, you will just have to accept slow rates of progress. You don't call the shots – the employer does.
And, honestly, it's not all bad. These lengthier hiring processes do allow candidates and companies to ascertain whether or not they are really good matches for one another. So, even if it does take a little longer to get a job these days, the upshot is it's likelier that the job you do get will be more rewarding and engaging.

The 'crimes' of Johnny Depp enrage Potterheads
Johnny Depp's appearance in'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2' has been revealed and many Potterheads have turned sorehead
Johnny Depp's appearance in'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2' has been revealed and many Potterheads have turned sorehead. The 54-year-old actor bagged a finale cameo in the first'Fantastic Beasts' movie as dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, and the fans voiced their disappointment back when his casting was first announced. Now, with the second movie, titled'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald', promising a lot more Depp, last year's casting controversy has been thrown back into light.
Johnny Depp
Fans are slamming the decision to bring the'Pirates of the Caribbean' star back because of the allegations that came out during his divorce from Amber Heard, who accused him of abuse. One Twitterati wrote, 'The cruelest trick a movie has ever played on us: replacing Colin Farrell with what appears to be the bloated, sun-bleached corpse of Johnny Depp,' while another tweeted, 'I wholeheartedly agree that Johnny Depp is a fantastic beast. However, I wish I did not know where to find him.' Some have directly petitioned author JK Rowling to engineer his dismissal from the film.
'Really intrigued by the plot of #crimesofgrindelwald but will almost certainly not be seeing it in theaters. @jk_rowling and @WarnerBrosEnt should have ousted Depp from the franchise years ago. Despicable that he's heading the continuation of such a beloved story,' wrote one. Rowling had defended Depp's casting last year at the premiere of the first'Fantastic Beasts' movie, saying she was "delighted" with it. "He's done incredible things with that character," she added. Earlier in 2016, Heard had filed for a temporary restraining order against him, having alleged he had both physically and verbally abused her ' claims which he denied. She later withdrew her request for the order.
