The American Cancer Society is the world's largest, volunteer led health organization, and this week said goodbye to one of their longest volunteers in Arizona.
Scottsdale resident and American Cancer Society volunteer Bob Teetsel retired from the organization after 25 years of service and helping hundreds of cancer patients and their families, according to a press release.
Mr. Teetsel initially got involved with the American Cancer Society through his niece who was a staff member at the time, and resolved to make a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
In the last 25 years, Mr. Teetsel was the first person that many people reached when they contacted the Society's Phoenix office.
He started his volunteer work as a specialist on the Information Line (now the National Cancer Information Center based out of Texas and available to cancer patients 24-7, 365 days a year), and then went into patient services.
Recently, Mr. Teetsel's face and smile was the first cancer patients, survivors, and their families saw when they entered the wig closet at the American Cancer Society office to receive information and resources to help them in their fight against cancer.
When he first started volunteering, he had not been personally affected by cancer and was merely giving back because he felt it was the right thing to do.
Ten years after he started helping cancer patients and their families at the American Cancer Society, Bob's first wife was diagnosed and later passed away from lymphoma.
That personal and shared connection with others facing cancer and their loved ones was what drove him to continue to volunteer. When asked at a special retirement luncheon thrown in his honor about the best part about volunteering for the American Cancer Society, he didn't hesitate to respond, "it's working with the people here. Like-minded, compassionate people."
Volunteers are the backbone of the American Cancer Society.
Since the Society's inception more than 100 years ago, volunteers have been crucially important in making the American Cancer Society the strongest and most effective voluntary health agency in the world today.
Volunteers impact the community in ways that could not be done without their personal commitment. The Society is driven by compassionate, selfless, and dedicated volunteers, like Bob, who provide innumerable hours of service and mentoring to cancer patients, survivors, and community members.
More than three million volunteers and supporters across the country help the American Cancer Society work to achieve its life-saving mission.

Anyone looking for a bargain on Microsoft Small Business Server should log on to Trade Me pronto.
Software resellers are using the online auction site to flick off copies of Small Business Server given to them free by Microsoft for attending a training course.
Microsoft is offering free training for Microsoft small business partners to learn how to install the small business product and giving attendees a copy of the software, which retails at around $4100.
Computerworld last week noted four resellers auctioning the software bundle, which includes the server and five client access licences for Windows 2000, Exchange, SQL Server, Outlook, Internet Security and Acceleration Server and Health Check. One had a buy price as low as $550, while others ranged from $1500 to $3000.
One reseller who preferred to remain anonymous said the effect on the market has been shocking. "Suddenly everyone is trying to sell them on Trade Me."
David Roussell of The Integrators had put his copy up for $2995. He said he wasn't product dumping but thought anyone selling it for as low as $550 was.
Microsoft small business manager Paul Muckleston was surprised to hear of people auctioning the software but could see humour in the situation, suggesting that perhaps the reseller selling it for $500 should have been smarter and sold it for more.
He says Microsoft has been trying help the reseller channel get their heads around how to position Small Business Server to the customer, but the company accepts that it's not been an easy process.
"It's targeted at businesses with fewer than 50 people but traditionally has been a hard sale to make."
Originally SBS included a range of products that had to be installed separately.
"If you were a small reseller, did you want to learn how to install all these different products? No. However, recently we made it more integrated and easier to install. Now we're saying if you learn how to install it we will give you a copy that you can resell or use yourself. If you're a small business, taking someone out of work for a day is difficult so we wanted to give them an incentive to do it."
So far it has been very successful, he says.
Computerworld understands 700 people have completed the course so far. Muckleston says it will run until June next year.

In keeping with the previous 3 posts, I want to expound exclusively on a strategic concept in game that is super powerful when utilized correctly.
Ignoring a girl's texts messages or phone calls isn't just crafty and sinister but effective when timing is opportune. 😈
Before I delve into this any deeper, I want to firstly say that chicks are notorious for engaging in such activities, ignoring guy's texts just because they can.
However, it gets even deeper and sinister with your average Jane.
Women not only willfully ignore guy's texts and calls because they can, but they also do this in order to gain power in the interaction, leverage over the guy and a subtle upper-hand.
Now, here is where it really gets fucked-up: women purposely ignore guy's messages in order to boost their egos and self-esteem.
It's really a power play…and women are great at this game.
We've all heard stories and cases where girls would show their texts and missed calls to other girls in a show of "who has the most guys chasing them".
It's a lot of chest-bumping when chicks congregate with their BFF's and besties.
It becomes a contest of "which girl is ignoring and stringing along the most guys". 😦 😦
A sad fucking reality to say the least where men are proverbially treated like disposable paper and laughingstock at a roast fest.
Welcome to the not-so-pretty world of texting. 🙂
Now, if you've been following me for any time now, you will have known that I am a strong proponent of giving women a dose of their own medicine.
Whenever I say this, I usually receive tons of backlash from men out of everyone, branding me a douchy advocate of head games and trickery.
I take such criticisms like a man.
However, it just goes to highlight how deeply ignorant men are of what ultimately attracts a liberal amount of poon into bed.
Be as it may, in order to tip the scales in your favor as the guy in the equation [for example: texting back and forth], you will have to do unto women what they do unto you.
Women look at everything and every dealing they have with every man as a strategic-power struggle.
She will actively and slyly seek to gain the upper-hand if she doesn't already have it.
She will look to check-mate and 1-up every move the guy makes in order to come out as the victor in a battle which she instigates to begin with.
Prime example: out of nowhere ignoring a guy's text messages or Facebook inbox messages in order to see how much he will chase her.
The more he chases (without a strategy), the faster his chances tank.
She uses the strategy of ignoring a guy's messages as a way to test the guy's resolve [to see whether he's a needy pest or guy who doesn't give 2 fucks], and also to cause him to DLV himself [Demonstrate Lower Value] by chasing her even harder.
The verdict is still out on whether chicks do this consciously or subconsciously. But my hunch tells me that most girls aren't aware that they engage in such bamboozlement until pointed out to them…such as what I'm doing here right now.
In any case, it is all about a power grab with women.
The more leverage she has with and over the guy, the more validation she can suck from him whenever she's having a shitty day.
She can have this guy scoop her poop like precious gold…once she has the leverage and the power between the 2.
Ironically, 97+% of men on this globe are overly poised to give away their power on a silver platter to every girl they come across. Hence, the girl starts out in the first place having the leverage and power since the guy would have willingly coughed it up from the get-go.
Those guys hardly every get anywhere with women besides a cozy seat in the text-zone…or friend-zone.
Women are innately attracted to guys whom they can't control, and whom they can't quite manage to manipulate in a grab for power.
By (purposely) ignoring girl's text messages and phone calls, you will have placed yourself into the bracket of the desirables.
If a woman cannot (quite) manage to get her way with you, her brain translates this to mean that you are someone of higher value, power and pre-selection.
Ignoring her attempts at communication [i.e. texts] is 1 way in which you can make this happen.
We humans place more value upon things which we cannot so readily get so easily.
This is widely accepted as true by most people with a grain of understanding of human-behavioral psychology.
In essence; this is akin to playing hard-to-get…another strategy which women employ religiously!
Now, which man out there is even thinking about playing hard-to-get games with women?
Absolutely NONE…except the rare pick-up artist [PUA] who had backwards-engineered the whole game.
Men don't play hard-to-get!
Every girl on the face of the Earth plays hard to get!
I mean, this is expected of her.
This is no secret by any stretch of the imagination [that every woman plays hard-to-get to some degree].
Since men generally tend to be opposed to the idea of playing hard to get, whenever we do meet a woman, she can virtually predict how everything will play out on the guy's end.
She knows there will be no push-pull, no challenge from the guy, no angles, no deviation, etc…then you wonder why women get quickly bored with 98% of the guys they would have met.
Once you can present a woman with some challenges and difficulties as through texting, she won't ever get bored.
Such "challenge" can come by way of ignoring her communiques. 😉
I do it pretty frequently…I must confess.
Alright, this actually happens not on purpose to be precise.
When it comes to taking phone calls, I am the absolute goddamn worst.
My phone is almost always on silent mode because of the nature of my day job.
Thus there would be girls trying to ring me and their calls would often times go unnoticed until I see their missed calls an hour later.
This is usually accompanied by some text messages such as:
"Hi Kenny. This is Jen. We met the other day at *******. We texted a bit but I decided to call you and talk but you I couldn't reach you".
I don't even ignore girl's calls and texts intentionally. Well half of the time I do…but that's besides the point.
Again I say: People want what they can't easily have.
Most guys are actually hung up on a particular girl because he cannot have her.
This fucks with him psychologically, thus in turn, he interprets this [the girl being inaccessible] to mean 'Love'.
He ends up putting the girl on a pedestal and seeing her as more valuable than other girls.
It is very much the same for women also. They get hung up on a guy who isn't quite interested, and they interpret those emotions and feelings to mean love.
The reality is, they are only so into the person because he or she is somewhat inaccessible, out of reach, hard to get and being a bit indifferent.
Therefore, the more availability you present a woman, the less she will want you. So- be unavailable at times!
Don't be so easily accessible to any girl whom you're texting!
If she texts you at 11 AM, ignore her message(s) for a few hours…granted it isn't an emergency.
What does the average guy do when he receives a text from a girl whom he's been trying to get with?
He texts her back IMMEDIATELY!
He leaves no space for wonder.
This is a bad idea!
Women don't operate this way!
They will intentionally ignore your messages, knowing that doing so, will have caused the guy to idealize her more and chase her more.
Ok, so lemme wrap this up by sharing some added examples of how to raise your stock in a woman's eye by ignoring her texts and calls.
Always try to delay the time in which you contact her by replying to her text or call.
An hour or longer is ideal.
Anything less than 5 minutes will get you in the red.
The beauty about my Whatsapp Messenger app- and I'm sure it's a glitch- is that I only receive messages while I have the app itself opened.
As long as I'm not currently using Whatsapp messaging someone, I won't receive notifications that I received a message.
Hence, whenever I do open the app to run my Whatsapp Course at the designated time, I would meet tons of messages from girls who had messaged me about hours before.
With that being said, when it comes to new girls especially, you always want to leave a gap in the time that you respond to her messages.
She texts you at 5: text her back at 6:30.
The only exception being emergencies and cases where you're already locked into a conversation with the girl as you're trying to build some attraction at the beginning.
However, it is all a balancing act.
Never go to the extreme or the girl will feel as though you're not interested in her at all.
Therefore, work both angles intermittently.
Engage her right away this time.
The next: ignore her messages and calls for a few hours…even a day or 2 depended on the nature of her message.
Keep alternating how frequently and how soon you return her messages.
When you will have done that, you will get the girl thinking about you more, thus raising your stock in her eyes.

Rapid reviews are an efficient solution to support health policy and systems decision-making by providing high-quality evidence in a timely and cost-effective manner. Yet, there is a paucity of guidance on the conduct, contextualization, and use of rapid reviews, particularly in relation to complex health policy and systems evidence. There is also a need for capacity strengthening in low- and middle-income countries in the field of evidence synthesis and rapid reviews more specifically. The guide aims to provide practical recommendations on the conduct of rapid reviews to facilitate their use in decision-making. At the same time, key challenges in fast-tracking knowledge synthesis processes and applying them to complex issues pertaining to health policy-making and health system strengthening are described.


text: I am able to make the 3 way call, but if the 3rd person doesnt answer and I want to leave a voicemail, how do I hang up after leaving the voicemail and go back to the other caller that I have on hold. I have tried everything but it disconnects both callers. It is really making me crazy, so I hope there is just a simple duh fix..

Interim Executive delivers everything we promise.
"I worked closely with Edwin at a turnaround aerospace Composites Manufacturing business. His deep knowledge and abilities within Supply Chain and Contracting were crucial during the business acquisition and were foundational to set the business on the right path to recover profitability. General Manager, Tier1 Aerospace Supplier
"Edwin led the build out our manufacturing and supply chain functions as the company moved from the product development and prototyping phase of our product line to commercial production. Edwin advised me and the executive team in numerous areas. Starting with a clean sheet, he guided the decision-making in every area from policy to process in both supply chain and manufacturing. Without his support, we would have stumbled through the entire process." CEO, Oil and Gas Products Manufacturer
"Edwin was brought in to assist our company through a difficult management and market transition. As interim VP Supply Chain, he was part of the Senior Management team with responsibility for transforming supply chain and manufacturing performance. Apart from ensuring the smooth operation of his team, Edwin also dealt with suppliers at a very challenging financial period for the company when many suppliers threatened to withhold shipments of product. Through all this, Edwin kept his team on track and made significant improvements to our supply chain performance." President, Tier1 Canadian Aerospace Supplier
"Edwin fit into our culture easily and quickly as an interim executive. He served as a key member of our executive team working closely with our CEO and CFO to manage a financial turnaround of the company. Edwin was responsible and professional at all times, and a solid coach and mentor. He fulfilled all of our expectations and exceeded many of them given the difficult economic conditions in which he worked. We considered Edwin a valuable asset and believe that any company that requires his services will also have a very positive experience." VP of Organization Development, Aerospace Supplier
"While working with Edwin, I came to rely on his expertise and knowledge of the supply chain field. I valued his reasoned judgement on issues paramount to the company, as well as his administration of his departments and its duties. I enjoyed working with Edwin as a colleague." CFO, General Aviation Engines
"I had the pleasure of working with Edwin in his role as Interim VP Supply Chain for 18 months. Edwin is well connected in aerospace and skilled at balancing external supply chain realities against internal requirements, particularly in difficult circumstances. I have a high respect for Edwin and would not hesitate to recommend him. He is someone who sees the big picture, but can act locally as required in a fair but firm way to get results." VP Asia and Government Relations, Canadian Aerospace Supplier
"My experience with Edwin was such that I found him to be highly knowledgeable, effective at solving complex problems and issues, capable of excellent strategic thinking, and possessing admirable management and people skills.

General Counsel, CPG


text: We have returned home from our seven day February 2014 trip to Death Valley. The trip turned out very well as we had excellent weather for an entire week with very little wind and pleasant warm temperatures. Over the next 1-2 months, I will be working on some trip reports to document our hikes from this trip. The reports will include 3 reports on the Nova Canyon area exploration which resulted in the co-discovery of the stunning Teddy Bear Cholla gardens. A press release may be issued on our discovery soon. I was told that an outside expert will travel to the park soon to visit our Teddy Bear Chollas and it has been confirmed that this is the farthest north that they have ever been found. The previous farthest north group of Teddy Bear Chollas is actually 200km to the south! I will also be issuing a report on my challenging hikes of the Fall 1st Side Canyon and the major canyon between Red Wall and Palmer (name to be chosen later). For easier family hiking, I will have reports on The Crack in the Funeral Mountains foothills and the Buckwheat Sand Dunes. So there is a lot to look forward to here on the site as we had a very successful trip. As far as future hikes, I am hoping to do a brief two day visit in April, but besides that I don't expect to return to the park until Nov of 2014 or Feb of 2015 for my next trip.

KHRC took great exception to a document hyped by local press and Social Media platforms supposedly from the executive director of the NGO Co-ordination board Fazul Mohammed purporting to deregister KHRC.
"This is sadly yet another chapter in attempts to harass and intimidate KHRC…" the commission's Maina Kiai scoffed.
It is not the first time Fazul has had a go at KHRC. In 2015, KHRC sought legal redress on the matter and obtained a judgement against them in which a judge declared that an attempt to cancel registration when the NGO board had failed to furnish written reasons to the KHRC was a violation of its constitutional rights. KHRC said the timing of Fazul's action was suspect.
Political support
KHRC said it is a travesty of justice that the NGO Co-ordination board and in particular Fazul would insist on a flagrant abuse of office in total disregard of the authority of the courts.
"Let it be clear that KHRC maintains the highest level of financial and operational integrity…" Kiai said.
KHRC has been attacked in 2015 and in January 2017.
"The brazen nature of this attempt also calls to question whether this errant public officer enjoys political support to undertake such abuse of office…" KHRC statement read at a media conference in Nairobi stated.
Integrity test
Let us take a moment to reflect on our supposed accuser Mr Fazul Mohammed:
He failed the integrity test and stands indicted by the office of the Ombudsman for lacking the requisite academic qualification to hold his current position, found him culpable of gross abuse of office and recommended that he be surcharged for the more than KSh8 million he has earned since his appointment not to mention being charged in court for forgery, KHRC said.
He has previously been dismissed from his position on account of his conduct bt the CS for Devolution and Planning and only received a reprieve when the docket was transferred to the Ministry of Interior.
Petition against Uhuru
KHRC said Fazul continues to invoke powers his office has never possessed and purports to instruct other state agencies such as KRA and CBK to execute unconstitutional directives.
The EACC did publish in a gazette notice dated March 31 2017 that corroborated the findings of the Ombudsman that Fazul Mohammed possesses fraudulent academic documents.
"We will confront this smear campaign and stand steadfast in defence of civic space and other constitutionally safeguarded liberties that will never be conceded on account of actions lacking in integrity and good faith.
KHRC and AfriCOG which is chaired by John Githongo and whose board members include Maina Kiai and Gladwell Otieno was party to the last presidential petition with Kethi Kilonzo as its legal representative, have reportedly planned to file a presidential petition against Uhuru Kenyatta's win which they claim was fraught with election anomalies before the clampdown.
KHRC said the new chapter has been opened of uplifting entities that are State leaning and punish those critical of the State.

Finally, I'm making up my second pattern from the Sewing Weekender. I was so pleased that Tilly bought lots of lovely patterns with her when she was one of the fabulous guest speakers on the Sunday, and I'm amazed I managed to stop myself after picking up two (you can read my review of the Coco pattern here). I've seen lots of lovely Agnes tops on social media and so this pattern was on my To Buy list for some time. I'm not a huge fan of the ruching detail on the sleeve/bust – it looks lovely on other people but for me, I think this would look a bit fussy and very un-me. That said, I love the silhouette of the basic top pattern, and the tight-to-the-arm sleeves. This is probably the only thing that I'd change on the Coco, to have slightly slimmer sleeves, so the sleeves on the Agnes suit me to a T.
For this make, I used some of my grey and coral floral jersey from Girl Charlee Fabrics. I'd kept hold of it for a few months before cutting into it as I wanted it to be for the perfect project, although in the back of my mind it kept screaming to be made into an Agnes. I really like the range at Girl Charlee, the prints are gorgeous and the jersey is excellent quality and really soft against your skin. Again, I made good use of my walking foot from Sew Essential – I find that it really makes a difference when you're sewing knits.
In terms of construction of the Agnes was very simple to construct. The only slightly tricky thing was to add the neckline piece – the jersey didn't have as much stretch as I hoped it might, which made it harder to stretch out, however it turned out OK once it was attached. You'll notice I faked a twin needle finish with two very neat rows of top stitching.
I'm very torn now I've made it; I think it would look fab to wear with my Simply Sewing Pyjama Bottoms…maybe I'll use this for my new PJs and wear another for outerwear – they're just too gorgeous not to put together!

It's been many months since America first learned about the Christopher Steele dossier when Buzzfeed took it upon themselves to release it to the public. While initially criticized for the move, as Republicans claimed it was irresponsible to release such an unverified dossier, more and more of that dossier seems to be truth, rather than fiction.
The dossier, compiled by a well respected former British MI6 agent, Christopher Steele, centers around the Trump campaigns interactions and collusion with Russia. It also goes deeper and claims that Russia has 'kompromat' or compromising material on President Trump, that they could use in order to get the President to act on matters they deem to be in Russia's favor. While such allegations seem to suggest multiple crimes on the part of Trump, the vagueness of the sources of the information that Steele compiled has left many on the right and the left continuing to question its legitimacy.
That may all be about to change, however, as IR.net has just learned that Christopher Steele has been in communication with the FBI and has turned over the names of the individuals sourced in his 35-page document. According to reports from the New York Daily News, Steele has identified virtually all of the individuals who were referred to only as letters in the dossier. In doing so, the FBI, as well as Special Counsel Robert Mueller, should have most of the information necessary to either refute or verify many of the the salacious claims made in the document.
It is unknown what other material Steele may have provided to the FBI in his recent communication. Additional progress is also being made from information provided by Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson, who had hired Steele initially to compile the dossier. Simpson has provided over 40,000 pages of documents recently to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Let's hear your thought on Steele's recent communications with the FBI and what it may mean for the Trump/Russia investigation. Discuss in the comments section below.

Beginning Friday afternoon, my sister, tim and I took Chibi out on a long journey to Pittsburgh. It was Chibi's first road trip! Whenever she was forced out of the house (like to the vet) she would cry very loudly. That day was no exception.
We got her a disposable litter tray and couple of canned food (she loves those with gravy) but she just wouldn't eat or use the tray! She was so stressed up that she kept shedding. :( Poor Chibi...you could tell that she was really scared, she didn't dared to come out of her crate.
Then, she got slightly better and was able to sleep on the couch instead. But the timid baby was so shy that she quickly hid under the seat and buried her head like an ostrich, when she saw the person serving us at the drive-thru. Such a kawaii little baby~~ <3
Finally, after near 15 hours of driving, we arrived in Pittsburgh and here is Chibi's and my new home!
The room is still in a mess, I haven't unpacked all my boxes. But check out the new pink chair, new red trash can (left pic), and the new shower curtain (right pic) from Ikea! Chibi's litter tray is new too, from Petsmart!
Here's where I placed my bed. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find the screws I took out from my bed frame, so my fulton is laid on the floor for the time being. Chibi's corner is right beside it, but of course, Chibi roams around and sleeps anywhere (hopefully under my blanket in the winter :P)! Right now, Chibi is sleeping right in front of my keyboard. One word: cute!
Chibi has fully adjusted to the new environment. She is no longer afraid of this new place and furthermore, she's become a sweet sweet baby, constantly asking for pats now! I love how she rubs her face against me. So adorable :D

Telah dilakukan penggarapan album baru Linkin Park yang tidak lama lagi akan segera di rilis pada musim panas ini. Mike Shinoda yang merupakan salah satu seorang personil Linkin Park membocorkan kabar tentang album tersebut dan menampilkan foto saat kegiatan mereka yang tengah sibuk di studio.
Melalui website resminya, Mike memposting tentang penggarapan album bandnya yang merupakan album yang kelima.
Album ini akan terasa berbeda dari album mereka sebelumnya. Seperti yang dikutip dari website Mike Shinoda berikut ini:
"As many of you have already noticed, I've been away from my blog / Twitter / Instagram for a while, since we're pretty deep into the writing and recording process. I wanted to take a moment to tell you about what's going on.
As most Linkin Park fans know, the sound of each album is usually quite different from the last. The new album is no exception. But as usual, the album's sound twists and turns as it is created, so any attempt at estimating what it sounds like today would be silly. The moment I tell you it sounds like "X", the songs will automatically take a drastic turn and evolve into something different within a week.
But what I can tell you is I'm inspired. We're inspired.
The band is trying all kinds of things we haven't before. First of all, we're not in the same studio. All our previous albums (except MTM) were recorded at the same studio; this album is not being done there. All our previous albums were done with a producer at the helm; this album has largely been self-produced. We normally write in a organized and regimented style, recorded into the computer; this album has been the product of a mix of focused experimentation and free form jamming. We're even tracking parts to tape instead of going exclusively digital.
I've been spending 10-12 hours a day in the studio–jamming, experimenting, writing, recording, re-writing, re-recording…searching for the sound that truly captures where we're at as a band right now. Something bold and energetic. Something with a balance between the chaos and order.
As ever, we're digging deep to craft the best songs that will set the tone for the next step, that will draw a line between what we're doing and everything else.
We can't wait for you to hear it this summer."
So, kita tunggu saja kabar perilisan albumnya.

The geography of Morocco spans from the Atlantic Ocean, to mountainous areas, to the Sahara (desert). Morocco is a Northern African country, bordering the North Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, between Algeria and the annexed Western Sahara.
A large part of Morocco is mountainous. The Atlas Mountains are located mainly in the center and the south of the country. The Rif Mountains are located in the north of the country. Both ranges are mainly inhabited by the Berber people. At 172,402 sq mi (446,519 km2), Morocco is the fifty-seventh largest country in the world (after Uzbekistan). Algeria borders Morocco to the east and southeast though the border between the two countries has been closed since 1994.
There are also four Spanish enclaves on the Mediterranean coast: Ceuta, Melilla, Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera, Peñón de Alhucemas, and the Chafarinas islands, as well as the disputed islet Perejil. Off the Atlantic coast the Canary Islands belong to Spain, whereas Madeira to the north is Portuguese. To the north, Morocco is bordered by and controls part of the Strait of Gibraltar, giving it power over the waterways in and out of the Mediterranean sea.
The Rif mountains occupy the region bordering the Mediterranean from the north-west to the north-east. The Atlas Mountains run down the backbone of the country, from the south west to the north east. Most of the south east portion of the country is in the Sahara Desert and as such is generally sparsely populated and unproductive economically. Most of the population lives to the north of these mountains, while to the south is the desert. To the south, lies the Western Sahara, a former Spanish colony that was annexed by Morocco in 1975 (see Green March). Morocco claims that the Western Sahara is part of its territory and refers to that as its Southern Provinces.
Morocco's capital city is Rabat; its largest city is its main port, Casablanca. Other cities include Agadir, Essaouira, Fes, Marrakech, Meknes, Mohammadia, Oujda, Ouarzazat, Safi, Salé, Tangier and Tétouan.
Morocco Berber
The area of present-day Morocco has been inhabited since Neolithic times (at least since 8000 BC, as attested by signs of the Capsian culture), a period when the Maghreb was less arid than it is today. In Mesolithic ages the geography of Morocco resembled a savanna more than the present day arid landscape.[9] In the classical period, Morocco was known as Mauretania, although this should not be confused with the modern-day country of Mauritania. Modern DNA analysis (see link) has confirmed that various populations have contributed to the present-day gene pool of Morocco in addition to the main ethnic group which is the Amazighs/Berbers. Those other various populations are Arabs, Iberians, Phoenicians, Sephardic Jews and sub-Saharan Africans.
Roman and pre-Roman Morocco
North Africa and Morocco were slowly drawn into the wider emerging Mediterranean world by Phoenician trading colonies and settlements in the early Classical period. Major early substantial settlements of the Phoenicians were at Chellah, Lixus and Mogador,[10] with Mogador being a Phoenician colony as early as the early 6th century BC.[11] The arrival of Phoenicians heralded a long engagement with the wider Mediterranean, as this strategic region formed part of the Roman Empire, as Mauretania Tingitana. In the fifth century, as the Roman Empire declined, the region fell to the Vandals, Visigoths, and then Byzantine Greeks in rapid succession. During this time, however, the high mountains of most of modern Morocco remained unsubdued, and stayed in the hands of their Berber inhabitants. Christianity was introduced in the second century and gained converts in the towns and among slaves and Berber farmers....
Languages of morocco
Morocco's official language is Modern Standard Arabic. The country's distinctive Arabic dialect is called Moroccan Arabic. Approximately 18 million (60% of the population), mostly in rural areas, speak Berber – which exists in Morocco in three different dialects (Tarifit, Tashelhiyt, and Tamazight) – either as a first language or bilingually with the spoken Arabic dialect. French, which is Morocco's unofficial second language, is taught universally and serves as Morocco's primary language of commerce and economics. It also is widely used in education and government. About 2.000,000 Moroccans in the northern part of the country speak Spanish as a second language in parallel with Tarifit. English, while still far behind French and Spanish in terms of number of speakers, is rapidly becoming the second foreign language of choice among educated youth (after French). As a result of national education reforms entering into force in late 2002, English will be taught in all public schools from the fourth year on. French however, will remain the second foreign language because of Morocco's close economic and social links with other French-speaking countries and especially France.
Most people live west of the Atlas Mountains, a range that insulates the country from the Sahara Desert. Casablanca is the center of commerce and industry and the leading port; Rabat is the seat of government; Tangier is the gateway to Morocco from Spain and also a major port; Fes is the cultural and religious center; and Marrakech is a major tourist center.
There is a European expatriate population of 100,000, mainly of French or Spanish descent; many are teachers or technicians and more and more retirees
The climate is Mediterranean in the North and in some mountains ( West of Atlas), which becomes more extreme towards the interior regions. The terrain is such that the coastal plains are rich and accordingly, they comprise the backbone for [[agriculture], especially in the North. Forests cover about 12% of the land while arable land accounts for 18%. 5% is irrigated. In the Atlas ( Middle Atlas), there´s some different climates: Mediterranean ( with some more humid and fresher variants), Maritime Temperate ( with some humid and fresher variants too) that allow different species of oaks, moss carpets, junipers, atlantic cedars and many other plants, to form extense and very rich humid cloud forests. In the highest peaks a different climate may occur. On the other side of Atlas mountains ( East Atlas), the climate changes, due to the barrier/shelter effect of these mountainous system, turning it very dry and extremely warm during the summer ( that can last several months), especially on the lowlands and on the valleys faced to the Sahara. Here it starts the big Desert Sahara and it´s perfectly visible, for example, on the Draa Valley, on which it´s possible to find oasis, sand dunes and rocky desert landscapes. So the climate in this region is desertic.
Name of morocco:
Morocco (Arabic: المغرب, al-Maġrib; Amazigh: AMURWAKUC Amrruk / Murakuc), officially the Kingdom of Morocco (المملكة المغربية, al-Mamlakah al-Maġribiyya, Tagldit Umrruk), is a country located in North Africa. It has a population of nearly 32 million and an area just under 447,000 square kilometres (173,000 sq mi). Its capital is Rabat, and its largest city is Casablanca. Morocco has a coast on the Atlantic Ocean that reaches past the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Spain to the north (a water border through the Strait and land borders with three small Spanish enclaves, Ceuta, Melilla, and Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera), Algeria to the east, and Mauritania to the south.
Several dialects of Arabic and Berber are spoken in Morocco. However, this linguistic diversity doesn't affect the ethnic situation as the population is largely homogeneous.

One Breath Paintings: Be Present is an interactive art installation and ongoing art project by artist Filiz Soyak, which invites people of all ages and abilities to participate and connect in a mindful exercise creating art with their breath. It is inspired by and a continuation of her own work: Unu Spiro: One Breath Paintings.
Inspired by Zen-Buddhist mindful practices, grounded in meditation, and created using a simple action, people will be invited to create a one-breath painting using ink and paper. Participants will be encouraged to breathe deeply, let go of expectations, and be truly present in their creative action.
When complete, each one breath painting will be added to a collective installation. The result will be a evolving mural of #OneBreathPaintings created by individuals – but connected and unified, in their action, and breath. Debuting in Hudson this spring at Valley Variety May 25, and then continuing at the Take Care Fair in Hudson on June 30 , the vision is for the project to travel and grow into a movement of collective and creative mindfulness around the globe.

How to find out whether your iPhone is jailbroken?
- The first and foremost thing that a jailbreak expert will do to find out whether your iPhone is jailbroken is to look for an icon on your iPhone's home-screen known as Cydia. You should do the same. If you find the Cydia icon on your home-screen then your iPhone is jailbroken.
- Another way to tell if your iPhone is jailbroken is to look for unfamiliar apps on your home-screen If you find any, then look for them in the AppStore. Can't find them there? Well, your iPhone is jailbroken!
- You can also tell if your iPhone is jailbroken in most cases if the Apple logo displayed during system start-up is replaced by a pineapple or a skull.
Buying a iPhone from someone or from an online store is very common as you know but the big question is whether it is factory unlocked or not, using the following trick you can check the iPhone for its unlock status.
How to find out whether your iPhone is factory unlocked?
- Insert a SIM card into your iPhone that is from a carrier other than the original carrier. If it works, then your iPhone is an unlocked piece. If it is not, then No SIM Card Installed message will be displayed

(State College) -- Students at this year's Summer Academy for the Blind and Visually Impaired at Penn State have a new tool to help them get around campus.
It's an app called BlindSquare, which uses GPS data to tell the user where they are, what's around them and how to move forward.
"The cool thing about it is, the app can be talking to them and explaining to them as they're walking into a building or walking down the street, what's surrounding them, but it can also hear the conversation of the person that they're with, so it's not shutting them off from the ambient sounds, or the other sounds of what's going on around them," says Sara Goulet, spokeswoman for the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry.
This is the second year for the academy at Penn State. Students used to go to a smaller school in Johnstown.
Goulet says the Summer Academy aims to help students transitioning from high school to college to use new technology, build useful skills and open doors for students becoming more independant.
"Some of these kids have not really used a lot of the technology, because the world's been somewhat small and now it really broadens and makes their world bigger, which is great," says Goulet.

Immune System
Lymphatic capillaries-Absorb excess tissue fluid and return it to the blood stream Lacteals (in small intestine) –absorb fats vin the form lipoproteins and transport them to the bloodstream Lymphoid organs lymphatic vessels are sites of production and distribution of lymphocytes, which help defend the body against pathogens
Lymphatic vessels
One- way system-The movement of fluid is dependent upon skeletal muscle contraction; when the muscles contract, fluid is squeezed past a valve that closes, preventing it from flowing backwards.
a.The thoracic duct is larger than the right lymphatic duct. 1)It serves the lower extremities, abdomen, left arm, left side of the head and neck, and the left thoracic region. 2)It then delivers lymph to the left subclavian vein of the cardiovascular system. b.The right lymphatic duct is smaller.

Morning! Ok, so Friday was a complete blur for me. I got up fairly early to get to work and when I got there it didn't stop. Especially around 4:00, it just picked up and didn't stop for me until 6:30. Sometimes my brain gets on overdrive when it has to make decision after decision and it doesn't know what else to do but shut down. Am I alone here?? I had a customer come in right at 6:00 last night just because he wanted to b—h. Ok. I'll be honest, at first it was really hard for me to give him my full attention. We have certain things that we do right at closing and that was all that my brain was studying. When I finally accepted that fact that I was going to leave late, drive long, and get home late I settled in and let him talk. Sometimes, I think we just want to be heard even if there isn't a real solution. Because in this situation, there isn't one.
So how was your Friday? Good I hope!
It's Saturday now and I have lots to do! My niece and nephew stayed over last night and we are going to bake cookies when they get up. They don't know it yet, but I am sure they will be happy. I mean, I am…….I heart cookies.
The recipe I am using is from this girl….. gotten from Caitlin over at Chasing Chels.

31 Days of Gratitude Challenge:
This week was one of our first exercises and I was a little intimidated by it. Frankly it involved looking at myself in the mirror and let's be honest, sometimes that hard. You can find this mirror challenge at Karen's blog: Karen C.L. Anderson
The Exercise: I had to stand with my back to a mirror with my eyes closed and come up with something or someone that I love unconditionally. This could have been a person, a favorite pet, or favorite experience. I chose my niece. My beautiful niece Erin. I thought about the first time that I saw her. How small she was and how her cheeks took up her entire face. The first time I saw her smile at me and the first time that I got to hold her. How I was so amazed when she started to speak in complete sentences and when she started walking. When I first noticed her features changing and how she started to grow! How someone so little could be so cool. When she discovered that she could actually watch High School Musical 50 times in a row and not get tired of it. When she started school and became this super-human little kid that can read big words beyond her level! How funny she is and how much she loves.
I started to feel the tears coming. Not tears of sadness, but tears of joy. You see, it takes very little effort for me to love Erin. To love her no matter what. Both her and my nephew are the coolest kids on the planet and I would jump in front of a bus for them, so loving them isn't very hard.
The exercise says that after you stand there for a couple of minutes in that thought you are to turn around (still with your eyes closed) and stay that way for a minute or two just feeling that moment. When you finally open your eyes, you are to look at yourself with the same softness as you would look on your thought. Does that make sense? Looking on my niece isn't difficult, because I love her so much, but when it comes to looking at myself it's very different. I go to this negative place and notice every fault that I have. The exercise challenges you to look at yourself with eyes that love. Love that thought, that person, that favorite pet.
I'll be honest, the emotion was pretty overwhelming. In a way that I will try not to sound puffed up, I had pride in myself. Pride that means I am good enough. I am good enough.
It was a pretty cool moment.
What do you guys have planned today?? Movies?? Dinner?? Whatever you do, I hope you have a good one!

What a beautifully written explanation and outcome of this exercise! Mirror work is probably the hardest thing to do for so many people – even when I go to yoga class, my instructor insists on us facing away from the mirrored wall because it can cause too much negative emotion. You tackled it well I think, and I'm so glad you found benefit from it 🙂 Thank you for your post!!

Price: $ .99
Excerpt from the Tract:
If our society were based on the concept of godless evolution, this Earth would be a miserable place to live indeed. Dr. Richard Dawkins, the famous evolutionist of Great Britain, once admitted that believing in evolution and then acting consistently upon that belief would produce "a very nasty society in which to live." Indeed it would. Some years ago, another well-known evolutionist, Dr. Desmond Morris, wrote a book—The Naked Ape—about the evolution of man. That title brings to mind an interesting question. Since no other animal throughout evolutionary history has been able to locate and live by moral standards, should we somehow trust man—as a "naked ape"— to do any better? Matter—by itself—does not have the power to "evolve" any sense of moral consciousness. If there is no purpose in the Universe (which is the position evolutionists are forced to take), then there is no purpose to morality or ethics.
Unbelief therefore must argue (and does argue!) that there is no ultimate standard of moral/ethical truth and that, at best, morality and ethics are different for everyone. If that were true, who could ever suggest that someone else's behavior was "wrong," or that a person "ought" or "ought not" to do something? The simple fact of the matter is that unbelievers cannot explain the origin of morality and ethics.

Islam Expansion Essay, Research Paper
The Islamic civilization spread to such an extensive empire through many techniques. They conquered neighboring areas rapidly. They spread Islam onto the people in three ways. One practice that caused them to spread was their expertise on war. Another would be the forced conversion of Islam to the people. The last method is the teaching of equality and peace that slowly became accepted.
Islam fought hard in battle. Their war tactics were the best in the World. The Muslims were harsh and cruel in battle, destroying cities and enemies. According to document 4, the Muslims were compared to raging tigers. The army of Islam wouldn t be successful without motivation. Mohammad motivated them, as states in document 2. Whoever obeyed him, he will bring back to the Garden of Paradise. Since they had a reason to fight, they became powerful, conquering many lands including North Africa, Spain, and Persia, as shown in document 8. The strength of Islam was at their peek. Their soldiers were fierce, fast, and hard aggressors against their opponent.
When Islam took over an area, the people would came with it. Mohammad had to force conversion of the people to Islam. The Muslims must have converted the people because if they did not agree on a religion, they would not agree on many other things. He made it simple and said, in document 1, either convert, pay money to Islam and they would leave your people alone, or not pay and fight against him. Mohammad, though, respected the People of the Book stated in document 5. He allowed them to retain their faith, but with a payment of tribute.
Even though Mohammad forced people to convert, many conquered people took Islam for their religion on their own. They did this for numerous reasons. One of them was how Islam taught equality on all men, whether the person be a king or a slave. This was stated in document 3. It was the first major religion without a social class. Islam attracted various people, most of them being poor. The inferior people would be on the same level as the king, especially in the eyes of God (Allah).
The Islamic culture spread to an extensive empire. The methods they used were successful in the expanding of the civilization. People slowly accepted the beliefs of Islam. Even today, there is a growing population of Muslims. Through war, religion, and equality, Islam was able to grow in great numbers.

If you truly want to keep your pets and that your SO is truly against it, just because he doesn't like animals (no hatred from the animal towards them, so I guess this is SO/spouse doesn't like it), then maybe you should re-evaluate if you truly want to be with this person. I really don't know why getting married changes anything.

sift wrote:Just a note on the pairs thing... At our store it's the policy that lovebirds and budgies don't go home without a companion (unless there's already a companion at the home). I think it's more of a damage control thing than anything else. At least this way, if the people end up not spending enough time with the birds after the novelty wears off, the birds will have company and not be so incredibly lonely. Finches go home in pairs or - preferably - trios. We also have a peach fronted conure that I would be veeery unwilling to send home without her chosen companion - a Quaker parrot. If you pick one of them up without the other one, the one who is left behind shrieks up a storm and the one who is on your hand calls incessantly for the other.

Oh My God its Tony Hawk! (and Maximo Park).
On the 21st i was lucky enough to venture down to oh-so sunny Brighton beach near the old pier for the Quiksilver 'gnarly' skating extravaganza that featured not only Maximo Park (hold the applause) but none other that Playstation man himself Tony Hawk! To be honest i would pay 17 smackeroons just to watch Maximo, watching the 'Hawk' was just a nice change to just a typical group of support acts. Along with the skating there were american accents galore as well as a variety of portaloos, burger vans and people giving away freebies. Perfect.
I actually quite like watching a bit of skateboarding and the like but i was VERY non plussed by the skating on show. I shan't bore you with details, but seriously, c'mon boys, no one even attempted a 900!
Anyway, after Tony threw his helmet and assortment of sweaty pads at the crowd, Maximo Park got ready to play. Out came the drums onto the half pipe and pretty quickly the band were out. No lengthy mic testing (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4) To be fair they did not disappoint, they were playing in the exact 'we are all normal, the lead is just a looney' sort of way that is so common with such outlandish (or complete dickheads, your call) lead singers. To be fair to him, Paul Smith sure did stand out with his lovely light blue suit. Very Scarface. As a side note though Paul, you are the lead so you probably didn't need the suit to attract attention…
Fashion aside, they sure can carry a crowd. Perhaps he went too far into speaking about the 'depths' of each song and portraying his arrogance that obviously walked hand in hand through the door with his record deal. Showing off his limited skating knowledge: "I haven't really spoken about skateboarding much, you know, Ollie's and things" to a beach-ful of shoelace belt/new era toting skaters probably wasn't his brightest move. Song wise though they performed with the same gusto and enthusiasm that is so apparent when even listening to their albums and for that I guess you could say they redeemed themselves. Naturally 'Books From Boxes' and 'Apply Some Pressure' got the crowd bouncing even thoug a lot of people i'm sure would rather be listening to the angle grinders that are Metallica and Bleeding Through.
The set continued with Paul Smith bouncing around like a gazelle on speed, the rest of the band just pluckin' away happily to their Gibson's. There's probably not much more they could do, it's quite hard to upstage a lead like Smith.
It all finished on a high though, out came 'Our Velocity' and flat caps and San Miguel's were hurled simultaneously (the crowd was a pretty mixed bag). Overall it was a good night, i probably dont know enough about skateboarding to truly judge, but it seemed to pale in comparison to Maximo Park's (kind of) wit and arrogant showmanship. But that's to be expected, it's not as if this blog is about 'Sk8in' is it.
You guys probably have this tucked away in your discography somewhere but here is a free download of Maximo Park's final song in the set from their album 'Our Earthly Pleasures':

Aerothermodynamics Research, Detroit Diesel Allison Division, General Motors Corporation, Indianapolis, In.
When the incoming air flow to a supersonic compressor rotor or cascade has a subsonic axial velocity component, a system of shock and Mach waves originates in the blade leading-edge region, propagates upstream of successive blades, and alters the incident flow conditions. The continuity constraint establishes a unique relationship between the incident Mach number and air flow angle. The shocks are detached and curved with blunt leading edged blades thereby violating the assumptions inherent in the classical simple wave analysis of this flow induction process. The current work employs detached shock models and a rotational flow analysis by the method of characteristics to investigate the effects of airfoil leading edge radius and cascade solidity on the unique incidence values and entrance region total pressure losses. The calculated results are compared to simple wave theory for the entrance region and it is shown that the simple wave assumptions lead to appreciable errors when detached shocks are present in the flow field.

Families encouraged to sign up for pre-K during Round-Up Week
DALLAS— The Dallas Independent School District (ISD) will host its second district-wide Pre-kindergarten Round-Up Week from April 6-10 to encourage eligible families to register for the district's free preschool program. Throughout the week, families may sign up for pre-K at any Dallas ISD elementary school during specified hours.
Dallas ISD is making a concerted effort to raise awareness of its high-quality preschool program offered at district elementary schools. Last year, an estimated 37,300 eligible children did not take advantage of the free early education, which is designed to support students' intellectual, physiological, social and emotional development with a focus on language and literacy skills.
Research shows 85 percent of brain development occurs by age of five, and early childhood educational programs have a tremendous impact on a child's future. At-risk children who don't receive a high-quality pre-school education are 60 percent less likely to attend college. They also have higher dropout and teen pregnancy rates.
Alan Cohen, Dallas ISD's Executive Director of Early Childhood Education, stressed these statistics as nearly 40 percent of Dallas children are growing up in poverty, the highest rate for a city with at least one million residents.
"Our goal is to have every child in the DISD area register for pre-K so we can positively influence their lives at this crucial window of opportunity. The long-term impacts are startling – overall improved school performance and higher math and language abilities, as well as significant emotional and social advantages," stated Cohen.
Children who live in Dallas ISD and will be four years old by Sept. 1, 2015 may be eligible for the pre-K program if they are:
Unable to speak and understand the English language;
A member of a low-income family (eligible to participate in free/reduced lunch program);
A child of a U.S. armed forces member
A child is or has ever been in state foster care; or
Currently homeless.
For more information on the registration process, locations and documentation needed to confirm eligibility, contact your nearest Dallas ISD elementary school or visit dallasisd.org/prek.
The Dallas Independent School District is continually preparing its more than 160,000 students for college or a career. Through our Destination 2020 effort, we'll invest in our people, focus more on the classroom, strengthen our systems and engage the community. To learn more, visit dallasisd.org.
