The East Coast of North America is predominantly explored for its history and culture. This enchanting destination incorporates every preference and flavour you could wish for. From the fruitful nautical past of the New England coast to the thriving modern age of one of the most favoured cities in the world, New York. Spanning from the Canadian border to the Gulf of Mexico, take your pick from a wealth of cruising destinations in a land of ultimate diversity.
Discover some of the major charter destinations of Northeast America from Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, New Hampshire and Maine. Choose your starting point for your yacht charter before hopping from one picturesque harbour to the next, roaming the waters at your own pace.

Regarded as the home of yachting, the region of New England is popular for sailing yacht charters and should this varied coastline captivate you, you could spend the entirety of a yacht charter just exploring the tranquil waters of Cape Cod and quaint fishing villages before visiting the home of the America's Cup, Newport, Rhode Island.

The Great Lakes are accessible from New York or the St Lawrence River, and are an unmissable opportunity to experience the largest inland cruising area in the world against a back drop of exquisite natural beauty.

I am disgusted. This camel's back cannot bear this new straw. I watch events unfold in Bahrain with disgust. But I have been in global work far too long not to realise that this is a struggle between two power elites, Arab and Persian, Sunni and Shi'a, that has been underway for centuries. The people, both those doing the shooting and those being shot, are pawns on their chessboard. I have no use for either power elite. It is more than difficult to choose a "side" to support on moral grounds.
But Libya is different. This is a clear-cut struggle between the oppressed and their dictator, a two-bit fascist who has killed and continues to kill for his own personal benefit. I watch with equal disgust as the US government wobbles around, unable to speak and act clearly. Thus it was with approval and some relief to hear someone in the political elite of the Old World, the North Atlantic, speak out plainly and clearly. His name is Alain Juppé and he is the foreign minister of France. If you read French, you can read his comments at his blog. If not, here is a translation. Most other translations of this are "machine" translations and not as clear as they should be, so I have done my own, only very slightly modifying it to provide clarity in English without doing damage to the original.
OUR honour
It is not enough to proclaim, as did almost all the major democracies, that "Gaddafi must go." We must give ourselves the means to effectively assist those who took up arms against his dictatorship.
Legal and financial sanctions agreed by the United Nations and the European Union are useful. But we know they only give results after several months. There is an urgent need now.
Only the threat of use of force can stop Gaddafi. It is by bombing, with dozens of planes and helicopters that are at his disposal, the positions of the rebels that the Libyan dictator has shifted the balance. We can neutralize his air assets in targeted strikes. This is what France and Great Britain have proposed for two weeks. There are two conditions: to obtain a mandate from the Security Council of UN, the only source of international law regarding the use of force; to act not only with the support but also the effective participation of Arab countries. This second condition is being fulfilled: several Arab countries have assured us they would participate. France, with Great Britain and Lebanon joining us in New York, have offered the draft resolution that would give us the needed mandate. The President of the Republic and the British Prime Minister solemnly call on Council members to consider and adopt it.
It has often happened in our contemporary history that the weakness of democracies leaves the field open to dictatorships. It's not too late to put the lie to that rule. This will be the honour of France that we have tried everything to get there.
Thank you, Alain Juppé. It is nice to hear a political leader call on us to walk the walk, having talked the talk for so long.
Here is Barack Obama speaking in Cairo in June of 2009.
America does not presume to know what is best for everyone, just as we would not presume to pick the outcome of a peaceful election. But I do have an unyielding belief that all people yearn for certain things: the ability to speak your mind and have a say in how you are governed; confidence in the rule of law and the equal administration of justice; government that is transparent and doesn't steal from the people; the freedom to live as you choose. Those are not just American ideas, they are human rights, and that is why we will support them everywhere.
Yes, that is out of context, but insofar as I am concerned, not at all inappropriately. His full speech can be seen and read here and you can make your own determination, if you like.
I am not an Obama-basher and tire of that ad hominem nonsense quickly. I hold the office of the Presidency in great regard and, despite how much I may disagree with the man who temporarily who holds that office, I never forget that the office is greater than the man. Thus, I always want to think our President, whether I like him or not, is a man who is in charge of our foreign policy and willing to do what needs to be done to support both our nation and the principles we claim (and he claims) to represent. I want to be able to support him, even if I disagree with him, but I definitely do not want him to dither, to dally, to prevaricate, to sit by and watch others die for the principles we as Americans say we live by. Fiddling while Libya burns is a travesty.
There is a crude and simple way of putting it in English. Shit or get off the pot.
I am ashamed that Americans have to wait for the French, British, and Lebanese, for heaven's sake, to take an initiative we should have proposed ourselves. Worse yet, I am ashamed when the initiative is taken, but we are not included as one of the sponsors. Elsewhere at this blog, I have argued the importance of the word in determining the course of events. There is a word here as well. That word is "fascism".
Today, I read that Secretary Clinton has been snubbed by the young leaders of Egypt for America's failure to hear them when they called for help.
Unless Alain Juppé and his colleagues can get some very, very, very rapid action out of the current administration, the "young leaders" of Libya will have much harsher words for us and rightfully so. That is, of course, if there are any young leaders left when the killing is over.
Shame on you, President Obama, shame on you.

Young children are at times not able to utilize traditional talk therapy so I also utilize art therapy and play therapy to assist your child in processing difficult events. I have a great deal of experience working with children who have faced confusing changes in their lives such as trauma, divorce or loss. I can also offer support and help to parents in managing and understanding their child's emotions and behaviors.
Adolescence today is a stressful time for our children given peer and societal influences, technology and the internet, and academic pressures. I have extensive experience working with kids who are coping with anxiety, display rebellious behaviors, are withdrawing or shutting down, or are participating in concerning high risk behaviors such as cutting or expressing suicidal ideation. I am also trained and interested in working with kids needing support around sexual orientation and gender identity issues.
Therapy with adults has the capacity for be immensely helpful and give you the space to understand yourself and make changes that will ultimately lead to greater satsifaction and happiness. I specialize in working with adults coping with mulitple stressors that today's fast paced life brings, including balancing work and home life, substance abuse and dependency, and divorce and relational issues.
I have extensive experience with family systems and helping families make shifts and changes that result in increased overall well being of the family. I am comfrotable with complex family and couples issues and have experienced success in helping families address issues they face.
I have expertise in the area of infidelity and loss of connection within a relationship or couple. I enjoy doing couples therapy. When I work with a couple the Client is the relationship, and throughout the course of treatment I focus on the couple identifying a common goal. At times that goal is to save the marriage and at other times it is how to end the relationship in a way that is least damanging to eachother and your family.

New Larry Anderson Interview
April 7, 2010 by XENU TV
Filed under Latest News, Podcasts
Larry Anderson was on the Chariots of Iron show and sent along this write-up of his appearance:
Larry here.
Happened to catch an interview with Marc Headley a while back on an Internet podcast called Chariots of Fire. It features news and topical discussions on atheism, humanism, skepticism, science, religious history, scriptural criticism and (of course) wacky religious antics. A perfect fit for a discussion about Scientology.
I contacted them and they enthusiastically invited me on to explore anything and everything they wanted to discuss. The guys who run the site and conduct the interviews are sharp, witty, enjoy banter, and we had a lot of fun discussing my recent defection and the Church in general. It's a lengthy interview but I hope interesting. We also cover a lot of ground left undiscussed due to time limitations of traditional media. Many thanks to Mark Bunker for providing a forum for those who want to hear more than sound-bite coverage of important topics. Hope you'll give it a listen (perhaps in a couple of sittings) and that you enjoy what you hear.

Let's Be Clear
Jeff Jacobsen and I co-hosted a weekly internet radio show for a short period. Ultimately, I felt the technology was a bit frustrating and bowed out. Jeff continued to do a couple more shows including a terrific interview with Maureen Bolstad who talked about the Introspection Rundown at length.
Podcast from London
I don't think I've heard this before but I stumbled upon it tonight from a re-post of an earlier MySpace blog entry. Christina Martin joined a friend as they recorded a podcast at the July '08 London Anonymous Raid.
One of the most memorable stories we heard was that of a woman whose parents had become Scientologists when she was around six years old. She had spent much of her childhood as part of the Sea Org – Scientology's private navy – and she lived in a ship's hull. There was no bed so she slept on the floor, she was kept out of mainstream education and received none from the church besides learning about Scientology of course. She eventually escaped and aged just 15, found her own way home all the way from Denmark back to England.
But it wasn't just the bravery of the ex-Scientologists that impressed us that day – the protest itself was brilliantly done.
Anonymous consists of mostly teenagers and young adults, and as such their demonstrations are fresh, heavily informed by pop culture and really quite, dare I say it, cool. They wear stylised costumes and masks, most notably the V for Vendetta mask for which they are now famous). This serves to protect their identities, mark them out as a group and makes them a more interesting proposition than your usual, ordinary looking group of protesters. As do their offers of cake and free hugs to passers-by. Here's a picture of us interviewing one protestor:
There's little stuff I noticed wrong (saying Operation Clambake is my site and I've been a critic for 30 years, for example) but I'm glad she wrote up her impressions of Anonymous' activities.
Here's the podcast recorded during the raid.
Hellbound Alleee
Well, I just spent a delightful hour listening to a podcast from Hellbound Alleee. It's located on what I'm assured is America's Greatest Blog. Alleee took a few audio clips from the talkSport radio show, sprinkled in some sound bites of Hubbard and mixed it all together with some really infectious music.I have to admit that music is not a big part of my life. I never listened to the radio as a kid. I never bought records except for comedy albums till much later in life. And when I listen to a podcast like this or Harry Shearer's weekly public radio series Le Show, I realize how much I've missed. Read more

German haircare marketer Wella has told longtime agency BBDO Worldwide, Duesseldorf, that it plans to ask ad agencies to make a presentation for its estimated $50 million global advertising account. Last year, Wella spent approximately $19 million on advertising in its home German market. BBDO handles Wella's consumer account, while Hamburg-based KNSK handles the beauty parlor account. Wella has been aggressively pushing into the mass market as younger women frequent beauty salons less often and increasingly style their own hair. Copyright March 1998, Crain Communications Inc.

Tremadog deaths: Mother and son named as man is arrested
A mother and her young son who died at a house near Tremadog in Gwynedd have been named by friends and neighbours.
The bodies of Suzanne Jones and her son William, three, were discovered at the property on Friday evening.
North Wales Police were called to the house in Glanmorfa Terrace at 21:20 BST, and arrested a man in his 40s on suspicion of murder.
Detectives say they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.
Next of kin have been told and family members offered support.
Local minister the Reverend Christopher Prew said the whole community had been deeply shocked by what had happened.
"Our sympathies are with the family after this terrible event," he said
"We want to do as much as we can as a community to help them, and offer them as much support as possible," he added.
Neighbour Nicola Jones said: "It would be horrible wherever it happened, but it's especially sad here as it's such a quiet place. It's really upsetting."
Officers remain at the scene and the police say they are treating it as a major incident.
Police are asking anyone to contact them if they were near Glanmorfa Terrace on the evening of Friday 30 March, or may have any information about the incident.
Neighbours have laid flowers at the scene.

It was a mistake on my part, and I'm sorry.
It was a mistake on my part, and I'm sorry.
Last month, I awarded my coveted cut-glass flyswatter to columnist George Will for the worst sentence of 2008. The award was well-earned, but it was premature.
On Dec. 7, novelist Toni Bentley contributed a review of Casanova to The New York Times. Readers nationwide sent this sample paragraph in nomination:
"There is a risk involved, however, even in just reading about Casanova from your armchair: You are left, inevitably, with the feeling, if you're a man (I'm guessing here), that you are lazy beyond measure in all things and have missed out entirely on the meaning of woman, which is the meaning of life; and if you are a woman (not guessing here), well, you simply missed out on the greatest lover you will never have and thus also the meaning of life."
Further along we slog into:
"Casanova's lovers -- Donna Lucrezia, Donna Ignazia, Teresa Imer, Teresa Lanti (who posed as the castrato known as Bellino), C.C., M.M. (two M.M.'s, actually, both nuns), Esther, Hedwig and her cousin Helen, Marguerita Astrodi and her sister Rosalie, Baroness de Roll and Pauline, to name but a few -- populate his story like sweet angel fairies, co-conspirators, teachers and often intellectual equals, and one senses that wit and tenderness arrived in unequal doses with the passion."
Here is a writer so in love with words that she can't let even one of them go. Our award might be belated, but it is richly deserved.
Moving on: Annie Brown in Seattle forwards a clipping from The New York Times about a Christmas festival in Los Angeles. A tree "was lighted last week" by the mayor. She asks: Isn't lit the proper past tense of to light?
The answer must be "It depends." The sages of Merriam-Webster give preference to lit. At Random House, they give it to lighted. It's a writer's choice. I think the Times made the right call.
Jim Pomeranz in Cary, N.C., raises a question of first impression: What should a writer do about do? He offers the commentary of a TV reporter in Raleigh who covered a contentious debate among members of the Wake County School Board. The reporter summed it up: "When they do decide . . ." Our reader asks about that do. Why not just say, "When they decide"?
In this context, the do emphasizes and clarifies. It wafts a faint breeze of impatience or gentle exasperation: When you DO come to your senses! If you DO marry that loafer!
Write to James J. Kilpatrick in care of The Columbus Dispatch, Universal Press Syndicate, 4520 Main St., Suite 700, Kansas City, Mo. 64111-7701.

For today Mercury shows its fine duality with Pluto that moves intellectual talents into the foreground: First class performance for lecture, teacher and actors – activities like that would have an enormous effect on the public audience.
Daily aspects
Timezone: America/Chicago, UTC-05:00

Your mind and spirit are inquisitive and like to develop further on mental level. At the moment you have perfect keenness and you are interested in experience and impressions of various kinds. When the moon is in the sign of Gemini you are in a state of sensitivity and fond of communication, learning and cultures. Inspired by intuition.
Moon (Gemini) Trine Jupiter (Libra)
It represents a beneficial constellation. It is a fine constellation for social and material success. It is shown a positive attitude towards life and you may enjoy popularity. Generous structures are getting realized. The artistic side reflects optimism and attraction.
Moon (Gemini) Square Neptune (Pisces)
This period reveals dreamy tendencies, passivity, illusions and emotional disturbance - Maybe you feel lost in thoughts and amazing imaginations.
Moon (Gemini) Opposition Saturn (Sagittarius)
This opposition reflects suspicious, reserve and melancholy. Regarding love affairs there could be made no good choice. Estrangement or even separation of female structures are shown. Solitude standing – tranquillity and abandonment are negative characteristics while this constellation has its effect.

21 The End of Absence
Darlene and Claire arrived home today after four days in Cambridge while I was in Salt Lake City and Denver. We've been apart a lot in the past month, so our reunion at the Market Street bus station was particularly sweet. Sometimes it's no fun being apart, but other times we enjoy the independence. Darlene notes in this video that sometimes it's annoying to give up the independence, or at least awkward for a bit. We note that Claire makes these transitions between Cambridge and Denver seemlessly, as if they're just different rooms in the same house.
Music for this episode is "Summer (the Sweet Goodbye)" by Carl Allen and Rodney Whitaker from the "Get Ready" CD, Mack Avenue Records, courtesy of IODA Promonet.

Dear Straight Guys:
Next time you have an urge to throw up your hands and say, "All women are crazy!" because your partner is fretting needlessly (in your estimation) about the way she looks, I would like you to remember this actual headline from the Telegraph "Now fashion mags make models look 'fatter'": www.telegraph.co.uk/fashion/3364825/Now-fashion-mags-make-models-%27fatter%27.html
For Straight Guys:
If you suspect your female partner is mad, well, she might be – only it's not something intrinsic to women, I can assure you. It's the constantly moving goalposts of Impossible Beauty, and people, that shit is some serious crazy circus display, unless and until you learn to ignore it – which is not easy mind you.
First things first. Let's take a look at a sample image that illustrates what we're dealing with here:
Click to enlarge.
Okay girls, so this is what you need to shoot for: Hollowed-out cheeks (but not too hollow!), thin limbs (but not too thin!), hip bones showing (but not too much!), a flat stomach (but not too flat!)… oh and levelled looking boobs (although there is the fact that it's common to have them uneven but no no, we can't have that can we?) … so are we clear yet?
The Telegraph article says that this new trend is "a response to critics who blame images of so-called 'size zero' models for the rise in eating disorders in young girls," but I think Ann gets it right here (feministing.com/archives/009050.html):
"At its core, I don't believe this type of Photoshopping is about deflecting criticism that models and celebrities are dangerously thin. I think this is about perpetuating an even more unrealistic beauty standard than unattainable thinness (something I never thought possible): the message is that you should be super, super skinny, borderline skeletal, but without any of the things that come with the territory, like jutting hipbones or small boobs or a small butt. So even the skinniest celebrities STILL require Photoshopping to meet this standard. You can be less than a size zero and still lose this game. And that's pretty frightening."
Indeedy it is.
And if that doesn't illustrate it's a game none of us should even bother playing, I don't know what will.

Someone earlier mentioned that right to a jury trial is protected by the DFSG?! Seriously people, we are talking about software here. I personally subscribe to the four freedoms staked out by FSF. I understand that Debian has extended those freedoms in certain areas with the DFSG, and in ways that I agree make sense, but reading in rights to a jury trial or a right to have only personal jurisdiction within the state/country of residence is just not one of them. But, if I grant your point, and accept that the DFSG protects my right to all those things, why doesn't it invalidate licenses that waive liability to the distributor? Isn't that my inaliable right... a fee I must pay in order to use the software... aren't I being descriminated against to the benefit of the developer and distributor. Its an outrage, its unexusable... but it is the way it is, and I fail to see a distinction between libability waivers, venue clauses, or rights to jury trials. -Sean -- Sean Kellogg 3rd Year - University of Washington School of Law Graduate & Professional Student Senate Treasurer UW Service & Activities Committee Interim Chair w: http://probonogeek.blogspot.com So, let go ...Jump in ...Oh well, what you waiting for? ...it's all right ...'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

Stories describing creation are prominent in many cultures of the world. In Mesopotamia, the surviving evidence from the third millennium to the end of the first millennium B.C. indicates that although many of the gods were associated with natural forces, no single myth addressed issues of initial creation. It was simply assumed that the gods existed before the world was formed. Unfortunately, v...Read Full Post »

The chronology of Mesopotamia is complicated. Scholars refer to places (Sumer, for example) and peoples (the Babylonians), but also empires (Babylonia) and unfortunately for students of the Ancient Near East these organizing principles do not always agree. The result is that we might, for example, speak of the very ancient Babylonians starting in the 1800s B.C.E. and then also the Neo-Ba...Read Full Post »

Applications are available online for Hoosiers wanting to participate in special deer reduction hunts at designated Indiana state parks this fall.
The first round of state park deer reduction hunting will be Nov. 18 and 19. The second round will be Dec. 2 and 3.
State park deer reductions help maintain and restore unique and valuable ecosystems damaged by white-tailed deer. The designated parks are closed to the general public on hunting days.
Applications are available at IndianaOutdoor.IN.gov. The application deadline is Aug. 25.
Applicants should see details at dnr.IN.gov/fishwild/5834.htm before applying.
Applicants must be Indiana residents and be 18 years old by Nov. 18, 2013, and possess at least one valid Indiana deer license. Apprentice and private preserve licenses are not applicable. Each person may apply only once for each state park deer reduction effort, regardless of primary or buddy status. All applications sharing duplicate names will be disqualified.
Biologists determine which parks require a reduction based on habitat recovery and previous harvest data.
Parks participating this year are Brown County, Chain O'Lakes, Charlestown, Harmonie, Indiana Dunes, Lincoln, McCormick's Creek, Ouabache, Pokagon, Potato Creek, Prophetstown, Shades, Shakamak, Spring Mill, Summit Lake, Tippecanoe River, Turkey Run, Versailles and Whitewater Memorial, which will hold reduction hunts using firearms, and Fort Harrison and Clifty Falls, which will hold reduction hunts using archery.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the first state park deer reduction hunt in Indiana.
"Though browse lines and skinny deer remain in the past, less obvious damage persists and requires our close attention and management," said Mike Mycroft, chief of natural resources for DNR State Parks & Reservoirs.

24-Month Optional Practical Training (OPT) Extension Rule for Students Studying STEM: Ten Key PointsForeign students in the United States can apply with the help of their international office on campus to work in their field of study after graduation. They remain in their F-1 student visa status and have a relatively easy means of getting work authorization for twelve months in a program called Optional Practical Training (OPT). Those who study a Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) subject have qualified for an additional 17 months of OPT at their option. This was a significant benefit to students. This summer a court case (the "Wash Tech case") threatened to suspend this STEM OPT extension program, but the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has acted to renew the program instead and even broaden it.
Seven Benefits for Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) Foreign Students Who Wish to Work in their Field on Optional Practical Training (OPT) in the United States1. The STEM OPT Extension final rule will be published in the Federal Register 10 March 2016.
2. The new STEM OPT rule will go into effect 10 May 2016, the date that the court in the Wash Tech case allowed an extension for the effectiveness of the old STEM rule.
3. Whereas the 2008 STEM OPT extension rule allowed an extension of 17 months on top of the non STEM 12 month OPT for F-1 visa students, the new rule allows a 24-month extension (total 3 years of OPT for STEM students).
4. Students can have a maximum of two STEM OPT extensions in their lifetime (total 6 years on STEM) for two separate STEM degrees.
5. Students may do an intervening non-STEM degree at a US accredited school and still use a 24-month STEM extension afterward.
6. The amount of time that a student can be unemployed during OPT remains the same 90 days, but the amount that a STEM OPT extension student can be unemployed has been increased to 60 days, up from 30. For a total of 150 days.
7. The new rules confirms in clearer language the "cap gap" rule: Students in OPT can continue their employment authorization and F-1 duration of status to the new fiscal year start on October 1 in any period where they have an H-1B visa petition and change of status application pending or approved that would take effect October 1.
Three Protections for the US Employment Market and the Goals of the STEM OPT Extension Program1. STEM OPT employers must be enrolled in E-Verify. This is unchanged from the 2008 17-month extension rule.
2. STEM OPT extension work must help the student attain training goals within their field of study.
3. The STEM student cannot replace a current employee, whether full or part time.

"The best spontaneous parties are those that are well planned".
As Year 11 students approach to the end of an era of schooling, all thoughts turn to the future. We could leave it to chance and see what happens but in this current economic climate, living in a period of austerity, it is best to plan well ahead. Here in the Sixth Form at Kingsmead School, we aim to support all our students to maximise and access a superb range of opportunities made available to them.
We offer students access to 30 Advanced Level and 5 Intermediate Level subjects; however we go beyond the academic, we aim to develop the whole person, with a focus on interpersonal skills, building self confidence and developing a highly conscious world citizen. Students in our Sixth Form not only progress onto the top universities in the UK, such as Warwick, Bristol, LSE, Kings College London, York, Manchester and Cambridge, they are also working at the cutting edge of technology and intellectual ideas.
Students who wish to follow a more vocational route are supported to develop valuable practical skills in a range of subjects such as Business, ICT and Health and Social Care; going on to colleges to develop those advanced skills necessary to compete in this rapidly changing and competitive world.
What qualities are we looking for in our students? They should be extremely energetic exciting, fearless, hardworking, adventurous and extraordinarily ambitious, who wants nothing but the very best and who will accept nothing less.
Why did the last OFSTED report say we were "OUTSTANDING"? We do not aim for the ordinary but for the extraordinary; we do not accept failure as an option, not when there is a winning option. This coming year is going to be a most wonderful year – Why? Because you would have made a very smart decision! Welcome to the Sixth Form where your future will be secured. It will end in celebrations.

APA Copyright and Permissions Information
APA Permissions Policy
1. Permission Is Required for …
2. Permissions Not Granted
3. Permission is Not Required for …
4. Requirement for Attribution and Credit
5. Permission From Authors
6. Permissions for Electronic Reproductions of APA Content
7. How to Seek Permission
8. Original Material
9. STM Permission Guidelines
APA supports the dissemination of information to aid in the development of science and scholarly research. APA also values and respects its own intellectual property as well as the intellectual property of others. As a result, APA believes it is essential for publishers of scholarly and other proprietary material to develop an efficient and consistent system, based on mutual trust, for granting permissions for both electronic and print publication of proprietary works. Therefore, APA adopts the following guidelines for the use of APA copyrighted content.
1. Permission Is Required for the Following:
- A measure, scale, or instrument
- A video
- Full articles or book chapters
- Single text extracts of more than 400 words
- Series of text extracts that total more than 800 words
- More than three figures or tables from any one journal article
- More than three figures or tables from any one book chapter
- Placement of an abstract of a journal article in a database for subsequent redistribution
- Reuse of content from the public APA web site unless there is a copyright notice on that material stating otherwise
- Content essential to the character of the previously published book or article, when reuse could compromise the sale of the APA publication. Examples include complex illustrations, cartoons, maps, works of art, creative photographs.
This list is illustrative rather than exhaustive.
APA will not grant permission for use of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, any portion of the Manual, or any products derived from the Manual with the exception of single text extracts of 100 or fewer words, cumulative text extracts of 300 or fewer words, and the "Guidelines to Reduce Bias in Language," which appear on pages 71–77 in the sixth edition of the Manual.
Nor will APA grant permission for use of the APA Dictionary of Psychology and derivative products with the exception of single definition extracts of 100 or fewer words, or cumulative definition extracts of 300 or fewer words.
3. Permission is Not Required for the Following:
- A maximum of three figures or tables from a journal article or book chapter
- Single text extracts of less than 400 words
- Series of text extracts that total less than 800 words
No formal requests to APA or the author are required for the items in this clause.
4. Requirement for Attribution and Credit
APA requires that full credit be given to the author(s) and APA of the material(s) reused. That credit should include the following:
For material republished from books: author, title, edition, publisher, city, copyright year, and "reprinted [or adapted] with permission."
For material republished from journal articles: author, title of article, title of journal, volume number, issue number (if relevant), page range (or first page if this is the only information available), date, APA as publisher, and "reprinted [or adapted] with permission."
The following language should be added to the credit line for versions translated from the English: "APA is not responsible for the accuracy of this translation".
- When formal APA permission is required to reprint, APA requires that author permission also be obtained. APA does not assist in this effort.
- In the case of multiple authorship, only one author's permission is required.
In most cases, if a good faith effort is demonstrated and the author cannot be contacted, APA will grant permission on its sole authority.
6. Permissions for Electronic Reproductions of APA Content
- When APA grants permission for use of APA content in print, APA will also grant permission for use in an electronic version of the same article or chapter.
- The requesting party should indicate the medium or media in which the APA content will be used at the time of the request.
- APA expects that other publishers will provide reciprocal permissions, granting permission for both print and electronic reproduction.
- APA does not generally grant permission for any use of APA scholarly content on the public Internet or in electronic mailing list.
- APA has partnered with the Copyright Clearance Center to provide a web-based permission service using Rightslink®. This service offers users the opportunity to obtain permission to reuse APA book and journal copyrighted materials quickly, easily, and legally.
To use Rightslink locate the journal article or book title you want to use on the APA web site. Then click the Permissions link associated with that item. The majority of requests to use APA copyrighted content will be processed through Rightslink.
It is the requesting party's responsibility to ensure that the material is original to APA and that it was not reprinted with permission from a non-APA source.
APA is a signator to STM Permission Guidelines.
In adopting these guidelines, APA seeks to facilitate the exchange of scholarly and professional information. At the same time, APA maintains full authority for protecting and setting policy for works copyrighted by APA.

Mercy is absolutely at the heart of the Catholic faith, both doctrine and practice
The friends of Francis are urging him to take a revolutionary step after the synod. But there are good reasons why he might reject their advice
Francis has steadily prepared the Church for change. It's foolish to ignore the signs
The Holy Father denounced many of the synod fathers as being Pharisees rather than good pastors
A new proposal on conscience is a frontal assault on the teachings of Veritatis Splendor, Gaudium et Spes and Cardinal Newman
If the synod ends without an official decision on Communion for the divorced and remarried then the uncertainty and acrimony will be prolonged
The question before the synod is whether people today are capable of conversion
For good reason, commentators on the Catholic Left could hardly contain their excitement at the papal visit
St Philip Neri was a gentle and joyful saint who had a particular gift to offer the Eternal City
Every time the 'Kasper proposal' has been rejected, Pope Francis has kept the discussion going

How does VMware vCenter Log Insight differ from vCOPs?
VMware packages Log Insight with vCenter Operations Manager for administrators who need assistance with troubleshooting their automated environments.
VMware's vCenter Log Insight -- to be renamed vRealize Log Insight before the end of 2014 -- is one of the few...

Enjoy this article as well as all of our content, including E-Guides, news, tips and more.
tools the company offers as a standalone product. Currently, it's also available as part of the vRealize Operations Insight bundle with vCenter Operations Manager (vCOPs) -- which is also to be renamed to vRealize Operations Manager before the end of 2014.
With all these name changes and also its relative newness -- Log Insight came from the 2012 acquisition of Pattern Insight -- to the VMware portfolio and its update to version 2.0, there is some confusion about its purpose, particularly because some of its troubleshooting functionality appears to overlap with vCOPs.
Log Insight brings in log information -- from the vSphere infrastructure as well as Hyper-V VMs, Windows servers and AWS -- for troubleshooting purposes and for an administrator that wants to set up specific queries to pin in a dashboard -- or to create an email alert -- to head off issues before they flare up.
Michael Eisenberg, senior system engineer at VMware, said vCOPs and Log Insight are "two sides of the same coin" during his session at the Boston VMUG user conference on October 9.
"I've got all this metric data and I've got all this log data. Any one of them can point me to the problem. … The metric data [from vCOPs] will carry me to a point, and then I need to look inside to see what's happening. And that's where the log data [parsed by Log Insight] comes in," Eisenberg said.
He later elaborated on how the tandem of vCOPs and Log Insight helps to sift through the mass of information from all areas of the data center, including firewalls, networking and storage, to pinpoint the root of a problem.
"VCOPs leads you to the place to look. Log Insight gives you that last [20] yards to be able to say, 'Hey, there it is' … to use a football metaphor," said Eisenberg.

RIT Student Government is the governance group representing and serving students at the Rochester Institute of Technology. SG is one of three groups that together contribute members to University Council. SG's counterparts are Staff Council, which represents RIT's staff and Academic Senate, which represents RIT's faculty.
University Council directly advises the President, who makes all final decisions. The President is accountable to the Board of Trustees, which has final responsibility for the university.
Internally, Student Government is composed of an executive branch and a senate. The President, who is the head of the executive branch, is elected by the student body each spring. Following the elections, the President appoints members of the executive (also known as the cabinet), which are then approved by the Senate. Cabinet positions include
- Director of Finance – Manages SG's financial resources (derived from your student activity fee)
- Director of Operations – Assures the efficacy of SG as an organization and helps preserve information between administrations. This position is hired for a calendar, rather than academic, year.
- Director of Student Relations – Ensures that the student body is well-represented and well-served by the actions of the executive.
- Director of Services – Manages a staff of engineers/developers who maintain and create RIT's digital services and products. Arranges and provides direct service offerings to students, like the Break Bus. Ensures that business/technology services well-serve SG's internal business needs.
- Director of Clubs & Organizations – Manages SG's relationship with clubs, organizations, and the Club Center.
- Director of Public Relations – Manages a staff of designers, photographers, and content managers who make sure students know what SG is doing.
- Director of Programming – Manages SG's events and assists senators in creating outreach opportunities to interact with students.
The Vice President runs on the same ticket as the President. They chair Senate meetings and help oversee senators. Each academic college (as well as the School of Individualized Studies) has one senator, and there are also community senators, including Greek Senator, Graduate Senator, Women's Senator, Cross-Registered Senator, and Freshman Senator.
The Student Government has two advisors who are appointed by Student Affairs.
You can find more information on each Senator in the bios, here.

Departure time: 8am
From the majestic mountains of Meteora, we were heading off to Oracle of Delphi. We piled our suitcases into the bus and waited a half hour for 8 students who didn't seem to remember we were leaving at 8 in the morning. They were still asleep.
The difference in attending the museum as an individual as opposed to a group was very apparent...and even more so because our group was that of students. I felt the docents were afraid we would pocket one of the statues and tote it out to the bus. All the small stuff was under lock and key. We were herded together so if there was something of interest behind, it was uncomfortable to go back because of the imposing figures of the "guards" who closed around us.
I still enjoyed the museum and it's amazing pieces, my favorites being the friezes with horse and soldier. The most treasured artifact is the bronze charioteer that occupies a room all on it's own.

Most Americans are opposed to Gay Marriage and gays in general.
The fellow teammates and owners of the sports teams have a right to know.
Most heterosexual men do not want openly gay men using the same showers or locker rooms. Now the sick bi-males probably don't mind. And, homosexuals and bi-men are sick and spread many more diseases, and HIV.
The owners have a right to know because they want the greatest appeal to the public audience. If the public knows that the sports teams is letting openly gay men on the team; it will hurt the attendance and viewership in general causing the team owners to lose money.
I, for one, am tired of the "Gay Rights" nonsense and so are most Americans, at least the moral Americans that are not sexual degenerates and gender sick (i.e., incapable of having a normal sexual relationship, which is between a man and a woman, or the normal relationship of marriage, which is only normal between a man and a woman).
The majority of Americans do not do abnormal degenerate sex acts.
The anus is meant to hold feces in until you have a bowel movement, not to stick a man's penis in!
It is a sick disease spreading practice. Gay men are the most promiscuous and disease spreading groups in America, the World for that matter, especially in Africa.
The NFL shouldn't have to ask their players what is their sexual orientations, it doesn't affect how they play AT ALL! The person who posted saying yes said and i quote,"Most heterosexual men do not want openly gay men using the same showers or locker rooms. Now the sick bi-males probably don't mind. And, homosexuals and bi-men are sick and spread many more diseases, and HIV." How is this even possible, do you really think the players are going to have intercourse in the showers, and last time I checked HIV also is NOT only transmitted by "homosexuals and bi-men". Your argument is totally ridiculous and i find it EXTREMELY close-minded. If you're straight do you like all girls? No, of course not. Gay men don't like all other men, other people have preferences too you know.
What does sexual orientation have to do with their athletic prowess? I think that they need to get passed the concept that a strong athlete needs to be heterosexual. How does sexuality affect athletics? That comes down to genetics. It shouldn't matter if they gay, straight, or dress up in a skirt on the weekends!
NFL teams exist to play football, and sexual orientation has no impact on how somebody performs on the field. There are already gay men in the NFL, and there has not been locker room problems to date. The NFL should just focus on whether their draft pick has talent or not.
Sexual orientation and ability to play football have no correlation. Mutually exclusive, and the NFL, as well as the military, need to understand that. It's just not even something they need to think about. If, perchance, a football player were to come onto his fellow teammates, that's another issue, but unrelated. Heterosexual people are always so afraid of the ones who are homosexual, but the homosexual people just want to fit in, to do what they want to do. And if that's football, then so be it!
NFL teams should not be asking draft prospects about their sexuality. I know that these teams want to know as much as possible before paying these players millions of dollars, but there are certain things that teams do not need to know. That is very personal question and will have nothing to do with how they play on the field.

Of course the UES has a .com. When the tech bubble was in high season, someone started a handy little site called UpperEast.com and billed it as the Upper East Side's Megasite. What a great niche! What a great idea!
While not a pretty site (no pun intendend) and with very little advertising, UpperEast.com is still around with a VERY big listing of stores and services that live between 59th and 96th streets (sorry, everyone north of 96th....). It looks extremely useful for those who live up there. Besides art galleries and museums, there are listings for computer repair, synagogues, house cleaning, real estate listings and schools. MGR

Wedding the Mind to the Heart
Sarah Varcas
As Mercury (messenger of the gods) enters Sagittarius (the sign of grand truths and expansive understanding) it forms a sextile with Mars in Libra. This aspect reflects the importance of forging a peaceful way forward, refusing to further fuel any smouldering fires of conflict. In Sagittarius, Mercury can be a bit too confident if we let it. A tad over-zealous in its expression, it may tempt us into arrogant pronouncements where open-minded enquiry would better suffice. At its best, Mercury in Sagittarius seeks grand truths and the perspective that weaves all things into an integrated whole. At its less than best, it fosters division through its sheer fiery force of opinion which leaves no space for difference or debate.
Thankfully, whilst this alliance between Mercury and Mars takes some careful handling, it actually facilitates positive interaction once we embrace the weighty responsibility that living the human life at this particular juncture entails. The bodies of thought, understanding and insight signified by the sign of Sagittarius have become tools of discord and mistrust, hatred, disrespect and aggression. Instead of being a powerful force for good that feeds the soul, religion has become a weapon with which to beat our foes; instead of pursuing a safe and inclusive society which protects the vulnerable and fosters potential, politics has become an instrument of division, affording 'power over' to the few at the cost of the many. When such dynamics are laid bare for all to see, it can seem like all is lost and we have gone too far down the road of strife to ever claw our way back. The dark night of humanity's soul looks increasingly long and ever more intimidating.
And then the Sun in Sagittarius reminds us WE are humanity. All of us. Misplaced confidence can be a sticky wicket, but well-invested faith and incisive understanding can be the change-maker in a world on the brink. With Saturn and Neptune about to form their first exact square (26th November), we all carry our portion of responsibility for how things play out from here on in, and how deeply we each penetrate the truths of this world rather than skimming the surface to soak up only those perspectives which bolster our personal view. This Sun and Mercury, whilst risking over-confidence, are also happy to be blown wide open to embrace an entirely new world view if that's what it takes to change. They symbolise the mind in service to the heart, the intellect fired up by divine inspiration, as much as the mind too full of itself to make room for doubt or the intellect so arrogant it dismisses all that cannot be neatly explained.
A commitment to connecting the mind with the heart will help us live well in the month to come, reaping the wisdom of Sagittarius, not manifesting its flaws! Run all thoughts through the heart, all opinions and attitudes, certainties and conjectures, for the heart always knows where the mind may flounder and stumble. The mind is a powerful tool for change. But how we use it is our choice and the more people who choose to wed the mind to the heart, the greater the upwelling of wisdom in this world.
Ego can feel a lot like inspiration when we don't pay attention; opinion a lot like truth. The Sun and Mercury in Sagittarius remind us to stay alert to our power and use it well. To bridge divides, not create them, and to honour healing truths as best we can, at every twist and turn.

"My sculptures aren't based solely on my social perspective," says Hawaii-born Ted Pickering. "I'm part Irish, German, English, and Blackfoot." He doesn't want to be pigeonholed as a member of one ethnic group or age. "I won't show in a place that caters to just one race," says the Wadmalaw Islander. "I want to reach outside of the norms of comprehension with my work."
The cyborgs he creates are a hybrid of metal, bone, plastic, and wire, reflecting Pickering's take on friends, relationships, and other life experiences. His sculptures aren't usually for sale; Pickering would miss his metal children too much if they got purchased. "I like to say that they're on holiday from the workshop," Pickering smiles.
Recently, the artist has shown photography at Vickery's and charcoal and pencil work at the Columbus Street Art Gallery. But he's perhaps best known for his proto-mechanical sculptures, built with found objects: TV circuit boards, car parts, and animal organs all blended together to suggest a future filled with broken down android tourists. Some have vacationed more than once — "No Chance at Third Grace" appeared in the Suitcase Show at Cumberland's last year and in a solo show in the City Gallery at the Dock Street Theatre.
Pickering's focus has narrowed as his career has progressed. Photographs that he took of rusty objects and sketches he made led to one or two of his sculptures; enigmatic titles such as "From the Descent of Gods, We Are But These" reflect an interest in writing. "The attention to detail comes from my photography, and the elements of color are from painting," Pickering explains. He also includes lights in several of his metal figures in an attempt to capture a robotized version of a sunrise or a pair of gleaming eyes.
"Lights will always fascinate me," says the artist, "and the contrast that different shadows make. Mostly I make things that I wished I had when I was a kid."
That childlike fascination with moving metal continues to grow. Pickering wants to incorporate more moving parts into his pieces as he develops them in his own studio. "It's more rewarding to do things for myself," he says, planning to keep his art home for a while. But while they have no vacations planned, his flights of fancy are too strong to remain locked up forever. — Nick Smith

The H&M group (H&M, COS, Monki, Weekday, Cheap Monday) has launched a new brand: & Other Stories. Will visit & Other Stories in couple of weeks. Some serious spring shopping coming up.
H&M:n uusin brändi on & Other Stories. Parin viikon kuluttua tsekkaan kys. brändin Tukholman liikkeen. Ex-lokaali matkaseura, aurinko, kevätgarderobi kuntoon, Fotografiska, baarit ja ravintolat ja what not.
My favorite necklace at the moment is the one on top, "Emine Natural Shell Necklace" by Malene Birger, made of shells (lots of small ones, one huge). That was my birthday present in January. I have been wearing it a lot. The other one, "Taninna Handmade Collar Necklace" was ordered today (a present from me to me…), since there's a -50% sales at by Malene Birger e-store. I really love these big, chunky necklaces. Another brand designing heavy, dashing pieces of jewelry is Marni. But the brand is a bit expensive-ish, even the sales doesn't really do the trick.
And by the way, what comes to BMB e-store customer service, both online and ofline, it's brilliant. Plus, the shipping costs are only 6,95e and it takes ca.5 working days to get the order. Very nice.
Freja Beha Erichsen in Chanel A/W 2011 prints. I like both: the prints and Freja's personal looks.
I received a newsletter from Minna Parikka. Check out her Spring/Summer 2011 collection.
Relaxed fashion meaning relaxed models with smile on their faces. Karen Elson's music is just ravishing. Lot's and lot's of celebrities and top models on the catwalk, too. Just to name a few: Natalia Vodianova, Daria Werbowy, Anja Rubik, Freja Beha Erichsen, Karen Elson, Karlie Kloss, Lauren Hutton, Lou Douillon, Julianne Moore, Beyonce, Lakshmi Menon, Marisa Berenson, Rinko Kikuchi, you name it.
What a cool way to present a new collection! Check out the gorgeous, always up-to-date website, too.
Kate and Laura Mulleavy (Rodarte) have designed the costumes for the movie Black Swan (Natalie Portman playing the leading role). "'Black Swan is set to be one of the most stylish films of all time" states The Telegraph. Very much looking forward to see the film.
I keep finding new brands often when reading magazines. Magazines like NY Times, Elle, Financial Times, Vogue, Monocle etc. I get interested, sometimes solely because of the brand name. In this case, "Bitching and Junkfood" somehow made an impression. Next step, Google.
"Established in 2009, bitchingandjunkfood.com online store and blog was launched by Bitchy girls Kath and Marion with a love of niche designer labels and vintage fashion."
The H&M + Lanvin collection will be launched on November 2nd. In stores on November 23rd. The collection is a well kept secret, there's absolutely no info, no images anywhere. In case you don't posses the fortunes that the real Lanvin stuff costs, I warmly recommend to check out this co-op stuff. I will.
About the trailer, H&M held a blogger competition: vote for a blog that will be the only blog/site in the world to run this exclusive H&M + Lanvin trailer. The winner is Zet Fashion, go there to check out the trailer. Good stuff from H&M, again.
