Some tourists and visitors to the U.S. are under the mistaken impression that the U.S. Affordable Care Act - also known as ObamaCare - made healthcare in the U.S. free. This is not true.
Visitors to the USA do not have access to health care while in the USA for the simple fact that they are not U.S. citizens. Even if you have family - perhaps a son or daughter, or parents - who are U.S. citizens, every visitor to America is considered a tourist and medical care for tourists is not free.
Only U.S. citizens and certain lawfully presented permanent residents (green card holders) qualify for federal health insurance program also known as Affordable Care Act or ObamaCare in the US and visitors to the U.S. are responsible for paying for their own medical care. Foreign visitors to the US are also responsible for any expenses and liabilities that arise from a medical emergency or accident that occurs while they are in the U.S. Essentially, the Affordable Care Act has no effect on visitors to the US.
Tourists Coming to the USA Need Travel Medical Insurance
Paying for medical care in the U.S. is very hard because the cost of medical care is very high - higher than nearly any other country except perhaps Canada. Tourists coming to the U.S. need to have adequate visitors medical insurance with reasonably high limits to ensure that they will not have to pay a huge medical bill if:
- You get in a car accident
- Your daughter breaks her arm when she slips off an escalator
- Your mother has a heart attack
- Your son hits a tree while skiing
- Your father comes down with pneumonia
Any of these are common accidents and illnesses, and if the visitor doesn't have travel medical insurance they will be paying for their medical care out of their own pocket (or on their credit card).
Emergency Room Visits are Not Free
What happens if a visitor needs emergency medical care? In many countries, a trip to the emergency room is free - not true in the U.S. Trips to the emergency room are just that - emergencies, so its not like you can put it off until you get home to your own regular doctor.
If you are in need of emergency medical care and have no insurance, you can expect to be transported to a welfare-based hospital pretty quickly but the quality of your care may be compromised. It might be the case that you may not be treated unless the hospital you are taken to has the extra cash in their budget for a charity patient. In most cases, the patient will be languish until they can be transferred to a welfare hospital where your medical treatment may not be top-notch and you'll still be required to pay for it eventually.
Emergency Medical Transportation is Expensive
Emergency medical transportation - by ambulance, by helicopter, or by special medically equipped airplanes is very expensive. U.S.-based health insurance plans have very limited benefits for medical evacuations, so most U.S. citizens who get into accidents where they need an emergency medical transport end up paying for that for years to come.
Here is an example: You and your family are hiking in the Rocky Mountains and your adult son slips and falls a great distance. You cant reach him and he is in desperate need of medical care. This is a situation where you will need the support of the local rangers (if you can contact them) and an experienced rescue team. All of this has to be paid for - its not in the park rangers budget to rescue anyone - and so you'll have to arrange for payment on the spot.
Even if you stay close to civilization and avoid remote activities, you could still be in need of an emergency evacuation if something disastrous happens - like a terrorist attack. In that instance, if you are badly injured, it may be preferable to be evacuated to your home country where you can be treated in less busy and overwhelmed hospitals with your family around you.
Your Visa Sponsor can be Held Liable for Your Bills
If you are visiting on a sponsored visa, your sponsor can be held liable for any bills that result from your medical care while in the United States if you cannot pay. This can place the sponsor in jeopardy of losing their visa or being prosecuted by bill collectors.

Boulder Diagnostics has announced the European launch of their new SpiroFind™ Lyme Disease Diagnostic Test. The test, offered by the company's clinical diagnostic service laboratory in Mellrichstadt, Germany, queries the exposure of the patients immune system to Borrelia organisms. These exposures are "stored" in the immune system for extended periods, potentially making this method well suited to identification of chronic Lyme disease infections. Additionally, Boulder Diagnostics claims the test can differentiate between active infections and past exposures as well as detect active Lyme Borreliosis through all stages of the disease.
A clinical study has confirmed the effectiveness of the test with the results submitted for publication in the peer-reviewed literature (so be watching for this to appear early next year for more detailed information). The results will also be presented at a conference in Berlin in April, 2013.

Scott Barrett has heaped praise on stand-in All Blacks captain Sam Whitelock for his ability to lead on the field despite not having played for nearly a month.
Whitelock captained the All Blacks in their 52-11 win over France on Saturday night - his first match after being sidelined for three weeks with a head knock he sustained while playing for the Crusaders.
He also played the entire 80 minutes of the match - an effort Barrett says epitomises the character of the lock.
"Having not played for several weeks, and to nut out 80 that's just what Sam does," he said.
"I think he's an awesome leader and he leads with his actions around the field... he's a valuable player and he's awesome to play alongside."
Whitelock is captaining the side in Kieran Read's stead for the three-Test series while the No.8 continues to recover from back surgery.

Looking For A Good Room
Contributed by Jon Lipka on Oct 14, 2012 (message contributor)
Summary: Wealth holds us back from inheriting eternal life: but wealth is anything earthyl that we hold onto as valuable in opposition to things heavenly. We must melt down these idols and consecrate the gold to the temple.
"What must I do to inherit eternal life?" (Mk. 17:17). There are two alternates to eternal life: eternal death and temporal life. Neither is appealing.
Eternal life is worth struggling for. The rich young man asked the Lord what must he do. He understood that attainment of heaven was not automatic. Eternal life doesn't just happen, unless raising children just happen. The realization of excellence only comes through work (hard work), and effort (copious effort). Take the piano: I can strike C, F, G7, back to C; but I can't do so in a way that would be acceptable for anyone with expectations higher than a five-year-old. Our friend Maryann is a far better pianist than I ever have been and ever will be. But she plays regularly; she practices what he will play on Sunday. Shee struggles with the music so that, when the time comes, we don't. This struggle is worth it. Oh, the joy of being brought into the Lord's presence by those who are already there.
Eternal life is an inheritance, not a payment. The rich young man understood that, despite acquiring great wealth, he had not secured eternal treasures. The rewards of earthly riches did not confer heavenly status. There is no exchange rate between earth and heaven. Temporal goods cannot be traded in for everlasting graces. Isn't that straightforward? Heaven is not for sale. If Bill Gates brought all he had and laid it before the pearly gates, he could no more purchase one minute in heaven than I could pay my mortgage in Monopoly money. There is simply no amount that is big enough.
Eternal life is not achieved by temporal good. The man understood that good deeds that we do on earth don't procure heavenly good. If we live a good life, giving to the poor, taking care of widows and orphans, visiting those who are sick, doing many good things, none these acquire even the smallest corner in a heavenly mansion. The reward we seek cannot be purchased by wealth or by works.
Jesus responded to the man with a list from the commandments; these are those things that must do to inherit eternal life. Why? Why would our Lord tell the man that the ticket to heaven is to keep commandments? Well, what are the Ten Commandments? They are the distilled version of the entire Law. And the Law is means by which God's people behave like His sons and daughters. The Law makes God known. Through the Law, Jesus Christ is revealed. By living the Law, His life is witnessed.
The man responded to Jesus, "Teacher, all these I have kept since I was a boy" (Mk. 10:20). The man's heart yearned, even fainted for the courts of the Lord; his heart and flesh cried out for the living God (cf. Ps. 84:2). Shall we judge the man for his presumption? On what grounds, when our Lord did not, but rather, "Jesus looked at him and loved him" (Mk. 10:21). Innocence walks hand-in-hand with sincerity. The man, at the very least, was pure and righteous in striving after the Law.
"One thing you lack. Go sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me" (Mk. 10:21). Jesus was willing to grant the man, up to this point, that he had done well. The man had struggled for eternal life. He understood that wealth would not secure eternal life. And his response to Jesus hints that he even understood that his functional adherence to the Law was not entirely sufficient.
"One thing you lack." St. Paul, I believe, had the Lord's words in heart when writing to the Corinthians where he encourages them to desire more gifts for the good of the body. "But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way" (1 Cor. 12:31). "One thing you lack," Jesus said; "I will show you the most excellent way."
The rich man outwardly kept the Law, but he was deprived of the fullness of grace that our Lord brought. So Jesus showed him the one thing he lacked, the most excellent way, the best and highest use of his efforts. Riches were stifling his journey. Based on the whole scene, wealth had not caused him to sin…yet; there were no unrighteous acts that he had committed to acquire or protect his wealth. We might call these sins of commission—sins where the wrong is in the act itself. Some examples are swearing, stealing, and speeding, where the doing of the deed signifies the sin.
But there are also sins of omission, things left undone that we ought to have done. Things like failing to congratulate a coworker or friend out of envy that I didn't get what they did (and I deserved it!), ignoring the hungry homeless man on the corner, and neglecting to give to the needy out of the abundance that I have received. There is no positive act to point to in these cases, and there are a million "explanations" why to omit the act. I didn't congratulate the coworker because he'd think I was insincere (well, would I have been?). I didn't give the homeless man a dollar because he'd just use it to buy liquor (am I now a prophet and a judge?). I didn't give to the needy because I had bills to pay or needed to save for my retirement (what of the widow's bills?).

Guide On The Way To Get Top Quality Jewelry
If you wish to offer a special lady a very memorable present, then jewelry is obviously well received. Below are a few techniques to select the best jewel for almost any woman.
Some precious metals and gems must be kept away from moisture and humidity. Store them in the closed jewelry box or small drawstring bag for optimum protection. Precious, in addition to non-precious metals, will tarnish should they be exposed to humidity and air with time. Tarnish are easy to remove from precious metals like precious metals, but they should not be taken off other metals.
A sheet of jewelry ought to be long-lasting. Get jewelry from your jeweler with a great reputation to make sure that it's of high-quality. Any high-quality jewelry will show superior craftsmanship, and are well-made. A credible jeweler should provide a complete background of the piece, including specifics of the creator along with the method to obtain the gemstones. Deciding on a high-quality piece of jewelry is very important, in order that it can last forever.
If you opt for jewelry from your jewelry store, ask if they offer insurance. Many stores give a policy where you can bring broken or damaged jewelry returning to the original jeweler for repair at virtually no cost. Some jewelers even offer insurance for jewelry pieces that were misplaced or stolen.
For jewelry to stay shiny and new-looking, you should ensure that is stays from tarnishing. Keep the jewelry far from water. Metals could become dull, rusty or tarnished if submerged inside. Applying a really thin covering of clear nail varnish for your jewelry gives an added degree of protection.
Test it by wearing it yourself you don't wish to provide a piece that will be uncomfortable or awkward for the recipient. It will also enable you to determine if it may withstand daily wear.
Put your form on just before the jewelery. The grime and dirt in makeup are interested in the jewelry, and when you put on the jewelry just before the cosmetics, it may cause the pieces to look dull. Earrings and necklaces are particularly at risk of this type of contamination.
Before buying a gemstone, check if it has been treated, and in case so, how. Look after your gemstone is unique, depending on how it was actually previously treated. If you utilize an unacceptable cleanser as you are uneducated about the gem, you could potentially strip from the treatment and in many cases damage the stone.
Have definite plans for your jewelry you acquire. There is not any need to purchase a large amount of jewelry that you simply never consider wearing. Take a look inside your closet and consider what outfits your jewelry will accessorize.
As stated before, jewelry is a fantastic gift for any special woman, even though you're confused of the to obtain her. Take advantage of the tips that have been provided here, and you'll be on your journey to selecting that perfect piece without difficulty making any woman the happy recipient of your special gifthttp://www.youtube.com/embed/uIRsPEVpaSs.

The Sustainable Development Goals: A Prescription for the Health of All People and the Planet
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is universal and encourages equitable growth. It includes 17 interconnected sustainable development goals to be pursued through integrated action with a particular focus on the wellbeing of communities. The successful implementation of actions that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals, in ways that are inclusive and leave no-one behind, will have a massive impact on people's health everywhere. It offers an unprecedented opportunity for the global health community to ensure a healthier future for all. WHO has a key role to play.
18 January 2017
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the World Health Organization
The 2030 Agenda with its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offers a truly transformative plan for people, planet, prosperity, partnership and peace. Integrating the social, economic, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development, it is a blueprint for action across all three pillars of the United Nations' work – peace and security, development, and human rights. The SDGs embrace the complexity of our daily experience and the real-world issues that confront governments worldwide. Implementation of the SDGs is starting to transform our approaches to development: this is leading to fundamental changes in the ways of thinking and acting, organizing and communicating, financing and reporting.
We need a WHO that is well positioned to contribute to the implementation of the SDGs and will be central to their achievement. Not only is health a contributor to, amongst others, poverty reduction and gender equality, it is also a beneficiary of sustainable development in other sectors, and a powerful metric of progress across all three pillars of the UN.
The work of WHO is vital to the achievement of Goal 3: "ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at all ages", and its 13 associated targets. These targets cover a wide spectrum of WHO's work, and their relationship is well summarized in the Declaration: "to promote physical and mental health and well-being and to extend life expectancy for all, we must achieve universal health coverage and access to quality health care. No one must be left behind….". This formulation places Universal Health Coverage as a key target that is critical to the achievement of many others, including health equity.
The achievement of health targets set out in the SDGs will also be dependent on the decisions, policies and institutions in other sectors – as in the case of NCD risk factors, nutrition, access to medicines and road safety. Equally, policies in areas such as rural roads, social protection, pensions and urban planning will influence peoples' access to health care. These interactions lie at the heart of the new development agenda and vividly illustrate the importance of seeing health as part of the broader interdependent 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Challenges and Opportunities
WHO has a solid foundation on which to build. Enabling all people everywhere to attain the highest attainable standard of health is WHO's constitutional mandate. The 2030 Agenda offers a unique framework to make this happen. The 2030 Agenda is universal, transformative, interconnected, indivisible, and inclusive. It recognizes that the drivers of poverty and poor health are multiple and complex and that our responses must be too.
- New ways of working
While the focus will remain on strengthening front line services, an approach to national health development that focuses on individual programmes or specific targets in isolation will be counterproductive. To respond to the demands of the 2030 Agenda, individual programmes need to contribute to and work within the framework of each country's overall plan.
- Better governance for health
WHO understands health's economic, social, political and environmental determinants. The fundamental idea behind governance for health - is that deliberate action is needed to influence governance in other policy arenas in order to promote and protect health. The integrated nature of the 2030 Agenda provides further incentive to pursue a more active agenda in this respect. Areas of particular relevance, in which governance can have a positive impact on health, include AMR, the health of ageing populations, trade and intellectual property, sustainable energy, income inequality, migration, food security, and sustainable consumption and production. While much of the attention on governance for health has focused on global issues, the 2030 Agenda points to the importance of governance for health at national and regional levels.
- WHO's role as a global advocate for health
The SDGs offer an opportunity to widen the scope of the discussion on "global health architecture". We now need to focus on the institutional arrangements that are required for financing and producing global public goods for health; for improving cross-border health security; for improving the relevance and coherence of the UN development agencies in the field of health; for addressing the causes of NCDs; and for enhancing standardized measurement and accountability.
- Measurement, monitoring and accountability.
WHO has a major role to play in monitoring progress against SDG 3 on health and its specific targets. Given the more political nature and breadth of the 2030 Agenda, civil society and others will use the SDGs to hold their governments to account. Social media will play an increasingly important role in this regard. We can therefore look forward to a situation in which the SDGs, in addition to being the subject of country level monitoring of specific health targets, will also be used to provoke debate about a country's position on inequality of income or in health, on migration, on access to medicines and many other factors that impact on health.
In my view, successful implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will make a massive contribution to people's health everywhere.

Every year around mid to late September when the moon is full, people in Singapore would celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival or Mooncake Festival by eating mooncakes and carrying around brightly lit lanterns (the latter being especially popular with children). This festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar, hence the oddity of celebrating an "Autumn" festival in September. However, lest you think the Chinese are weird, did you know that the Germans celebrate Oktoberfest in September as well? What can I say, September is a popular month! 😀
Anyway, last Friday (6th Oct) our CG decided to do something outdoors for a change and, just nice, CG day happened to coincide with the Mid Autumn Lantern Carnival held at Chinese Gardens. Traditional Chinese superstitions aside, it was a good time for our CG to do life together and have fun looking at the bright displays (a huge hurrah from all the photographers and bloggers in IslandHope!).
Accessibility wise, did you know that Chinese Gardens has two entrances called the East Entrance and West Entrance? The East Entrance is about a 100-200m walk away from Chinese Gardens MRT whereas the West Entrance is suitable for those driving due to an adjoining huge carpark. However, in order to get to the West Entrance, one has to first drive along a very long and narrow road; and on busy nights like this, traffic can be very slow moving. In fact, almost half of our taxi fare was due to the jam on that road! In retrospect, it would've been much smarter to alight at the MRT station instead.
Ashley's first visit to Chinese Garden. She doesn't look too happy at being out in the haze.
We were very fortunate to bump into Tiger when we arrived as he was pretty much near the head of the queue. On the other hand, Guppy, Andrew, Merv and Pris, who were queueing at the East Entrance, had to wait in line for more than 20 minutes! Thank God we didn't have to queue as Ashley would've gotten very restless! (As you can see, I'm trying to console myself for paying so much in taxi fare). 😛
We're in! That's the famous White Rainbow Bridge in the background.
According to Tiger, today was supposed to be the last day of the "Wonders of the World" lantern display but due to its popularity, the event was extended until Sunday. Still, the large crowd that turned up contributed significantly to the festive atmosphere, giving the place a lively buzz.
Looks like a lot of people decided to brave the haze too!
Insects and Mushrooms
The first lantern structures to greet us upon crossing the bridge was this long row of insect and plant lanterns set up along the edge of the lake. These ones were quite a hit with families as many parents and kids (including us!) could be seen jostling for room to pose with them.
Ashley oblivious to the giant green caterpillar munching on a leaf.
Tiger managing to keep Ashley still long enough for me to take this beautiful well-lit shot.
For the occasion, we also bought Ashley a mini battery operated lantern from Tiong Bahru Plaza. It had pictures of cows on it, which we thought was quite appropriate for her. 😛
Ashley examining her mini-lantern.
It's a pity that such nice scenery and cool weather had to be marred by the haze and its acrid smell. In fact, while talking to Peishan the next day, she described how haze particles were actually visible in some of her photos!
I could sit on the grass and just stare at this scenery the whole night.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa
Here is a rare picture with me in it!
The only thing "leaning" in this picture is the photographer!
The Taj Mahal
Got this idea from Merv: a young couple caught slipping away from the crowd to pause and admire the beautiful palace before them. How romantic!
A fairy tale moment.
Another view of the Taj Mahal behind the leaves of a tree.
Three belly dancers in front of the Taj Mahal display.
Panda Bears
Did you know that I used to love panda bears especially that Tarepanda cartoon character? These guys are just as cute! The pandas I mean… 😛
Bloggers from IslandHope and Chris' CG posing with a couple of high-voltage pandas.
Water Lilies
The next display was very nice – water lily lanterns floating in the middle of the lake.
If anybody wants the large originals of the following photos to use as desktop wallpaper, just let me know! 😀
The Eiffel Tower
Here's another great exhibit, if only because it must have taken a lot of effort to light so many crossbeams! The height wasn't too shabby either, evident by the trouble I had fitting it and my CG folks into the same photo.
Ashley, Mylene and Zhiyi.
MC, Andrew, Pris and Tiger.
Spinning Dragon Globe
Here's an IslandHope group pic in front of a strange moving display with many dragons. I have no idea what it symbolizes but I can imagine that it'll make a pretty groovy disco ball if hung upside-down.
The Pagoda
Due to the fact that we had to rush off, there were many other "wonders" that we didn't get to see like the Sphinx, Blue Mosque and Great Wall. Nonetheless, I'm already looking forward to next year's lantern festival and whether the organizers can improve on an already great theme. Plus, Ashley will also be old enough to carry around a lantern instead of putting it in her mouth! 😀

Farming: compensation received for compulsory slaughter of animals
S126 and S225ZA-S225ZG Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005, S124 and S127A-S127G Corporation Tax Act 2009
Under the Animal Health Act 1981 DEFRA operates a slaughter policy with compensation for dealing with certain serious animal diseases. (In addition to DEFRA compensation, farmers may also receive compensation under an insurance policy - see BIM55195.) DEFRA compensation paid is normally treated for tax purposes as follows:
- Where the animals form part of the farmer's trading stock, as a trading receipt of the accounting period in which the slaughter takes place.
- Where the animals are members of a herd forming the subject of a herd basis election (see BIM55500 onwards), as `proceeds of sale'.
Where the first alternative applies, the accounts for the year of slaughter are likely to show an abnormal profit on livestock account and consequently to give rise to an abnormally heavy tax liability for the corresponding tax year. To meet this problem, the legislation provides a spreading relief. The way it operates is explained with examples at BIM55185 - BIM55190.
Where animals are members of a herd for which a herd basis election is made and the animals slaughtered constitute the whole, or a substantial part, of a `production herd', the compensation receipts for the slaughtered animals are brought into account as receipts only when the corresponding replacement animals join the new herd. Farmers receiving compensation who have not previously elected for the herd basis and whose herds have been compulsorily slaughtered on account of disease are permitted to make a retrospective herd basis election to include the year of slaughter (see BIM55605).
The rules on spreading relief and herd basis do not apply when calculating profits on the cash basis (see BIM70000 onwards).

We have carried out tank experiments on the excitation of vibrational resonances of submerged elastic objects by incident short acoustic pulses. We have studied steel spheres, cylinders with hemispherical endcaps, and prolate as well as oblate spheroids. Theoretical interpretations of the resonance positions are provided by the matching of the phases of surface waves excited by the incident pulses, that encircle the object along closed paths. Some results of a French experimental study (G Maze and J Ripoche, University of Le Havre) are interpreted using the same approach.

When it comes to reviewing a USB flash drive, there isn't a great deal of features to review. Obviously speed is an important factor, along with reliability. Failure rates of USB flash drives is something to consider, but I don't imagine it's that measurable. If you have a solid brand name making the flash drive, I think it's going to be just fine. You may see customer reviews from time to time mentioning data loss, but Lexar is a known and trusted brand. No storage device is 100% safe or fail proof.
So why would I suggest or recommend a Lexar USB flash drive? Really for me it came down to price. A recognized storage brand and cheap price had me buying what I could. In this instance, the best deals on these drives was on Amazon.
Speed wise, you can do better than what these Lexar flash drives can do. They aren't USB 3.0 and because of that, the price point is low. I would ask myself how valuable my time is and whether a USB 3.0 flash drive of this size is really that critical to my needs. These aren't slow to the point where you're going to waste your life away by waiting to fill up a 64GB, 32GB or 16GB drive. We aren't talking about moving massive amounts of data.
Design wise, there is a plastic slider cover which is adequate, but obviously having a cap is a nice solution when it comes to a USB flash drive which might pick up dirt from your pocket or where you might be throwing this drive for travel. I will say the Lexar USB drives are compact and the color is refreshingly not black. Don't these colors just make you happy?
As previously mentioned, you can get a Lexar USB flash drive at a cheap price. It's that price point that makes these a great choice. I say it was the best choice from what I saw during the Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Boxing Week sales. Wait for the sales, then scoop some up. It's never a bad idea to backup extra special files, videos or photos. These are great for safe keeping regardless if you have items backed up elsewhere. You can never be too safe when it comes to having backups of important data.

We have a course that costs $35 and a client applied for it, but the price is showing $315. Is this a glitch?
Thanks so much,
- JotForm SupportAuryAnswered on June 12, 2015 at 12:08 PM
I have cloned your form and checked it, however it shows $35.00, same as your above included screen shot.
While testing your form in the website you mentioned above, I had the following result:
As the description begins with a number, "9am..." it is taking as a Quantity, 35*9=315.
Let me go ahead, I am going to send this inquiry to our second level so they can analyze this situation and find the best solution.
You will be contacted through this thread, as soon as this is solved.
In the meantime, my best advise for you is to change the title of the Lable, maybe with the date in front and then the time "June 16,2015 at 9am".
I am really sorry for the inconvenient. If we can assist you further please let us know.

Thank you so much for your understanding.

The problem is that you needed to enable the special pricing checkbox, then just leave the price for each option the same.
I created a short version of your form, and this one works with no problem.
The amount is still $35.00 at the paypal side.

Awesome! Thank you for your help. If I have any further issues, i will be sure to let you know.

My first visit to the center created many wonderful memories. With the help of a teammate's phone call and a wonderful bus driver, we found the building in yet another part of Jerusalem.
On the same bus was a group of trainees with the Christian Peacemaker Team, also going to attend the communion prayer service at Sabeel. This new trainee group made up of people from all over the world furthering God's peace and justice. No pictures or names; I do not want to create anything that will keep them from getting back into Israel.
The founder of Sabeel, Naim Ateek, led in beautiful remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice for our salvation.
Lunch together and a program of recognition followed for two longtime friends of Sabeel, Doug and Kathy. After many years, these two servants of God will be returning to their home countries.
I was glad to be able to talk to Naim Ateek, I saw him last at a meeting in Michigan's Grand Valley College shortly before I left for this assignment.
You know my love of books.How fun it was to learn that one of the books on my shelf back home was dedicated to Kathy who was being honored at this event.
These were some on display here that I hope to add to my library.
There is going to be a Sabeel Conference in Chicago in November. Maybe we can attend together.
It was fun meeting the staff and friends of Sabeel.
Also nice to be able to catch a ride "home" with the United Methodist Liaisons to Israel and Palestine, Janet Lahr Lewis and Rev. Kristen Brown.

Japanese gamers will next week be able to download a free patch for Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection on PS3 which adds a host of new modes and tweaks, including DualShock 3 support.
A new Pickup Match mode included in the update will allow you to fight it out in one-on-one matches in quick succession without the need to go through a matchmaking room.
The update will also allow you to name - and view names for - rooms, as well as adding a new 'flag' option so you can flag or search for rooms with particular play conditions.
Changes to the World Rank Match setting means that when you turn World Ranking off, the game won't track your win/lose count and you won't earn battle points.
There's currently no word on when this update will be released to regions outside of Japan.

Stephan Elliott urinated on photographer
Washington, (ANI): Australian film director Stephan Elliott has revealed how he inadvertently urinated on a snapper stalking Jessica Biel on the set of his English period comedy Easy Virtue. He recalled that his crew was filming in a Nottinghamshire field, miles from the nearest restroom, at the time.
"We were shooting with Jessica and it would just have been so much of a hassle to walk all the way back to the loo, so I apologised to the cast and crew, made my excuses and wandered towards a nearby bush," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.
"I was relieving myself and I looked down and I realised I was p**sing on a photographer.
"Fortunately, he was too flustered and embarrassed to take a shot," he added.
Elliott even admitted that he would never want to swap places with Biel or her boyfriend Justin Timberlake, who visited the set on a couple of occasions.
He said that he just couldn't deal with their level of fame.
"We had paparazzi everywhere. These guys can't even fart without a camera being there. And there's not a lot you can do about it," he added.

I had to make dinner at the last minute and was starving so went with something quick. A couple ingredients thrown together and less than 10 minutes of saute-ing!
Tilapia Kale as a Salad
Tilapia Kale as a Wrap
Made a nice Tilapia Saute and some Kale too, enjoyed partial wrap and partial salad. Lemon-thyme-pepper for days! And more hummus and tabouli of course. #1 A little lemon and liberal amounts of lemon pepper, thyme, and parsley go a long way.
-Tilapia cooked in chicken broth, olive oil, parsley, lemon, lemon pepper
-Kale cooked in veggie broth, thyme, olive oil, lemon pepper
-Wheat wrap, cucumber/avo/tomato, little brown rice
-Hummus and Tabouli
Sando-Salad and Mint Tea

-Pastrami Turkey, Wheat loaf, Garlic Hummus, Tabouli, Olives
-Mixed Greens, Beets, Tomato, Cucumber, Olives
-Olive Oil, Lemon, Garlic Hummus, Tabouli
Raspberry Oat Waffles!
In the mood for waffles this morning! With a Maple Raspberry Nut theme. These are flavorful healthy waffles that make you feel great. #3 I mixed raspberries into the batter before cooking (you just can't see them in the photo) and they made the waffles taste amazing, Next time i'm going add syrup in as well. Inspired by this recipe with the following changes:-Extra thick rolled oats
-Raspberries cooked in
-Yogurt for buttermilk
-Soymilk for milk
-Added Cinnamon
-Topped with more raspberries, banana, maple syrup, pecans, and cinnamon

Hi, I'm Kara!
My love of photography started in middle school, when I won a contest with my 35mm point and shoot. Then, when my cousin was born, I took his first portrait. It continued on through the years while I earned two degrees in education. Gaining this foundation has really allowed me to connect with the children I photograph and understand each stage. But through my journey of infertility, I realized that my true joy and passion was working with new families. A lot of my clients have some sort of infertility journey, so they feel comfortable coming to me and talking about all kinds of things.
Come by the studio and check us out. I would love to meet you and chat awhile! Until you can, the video below will help you get to know me.

it's been a weird and frustrating past two weeks. i'll try to make this long story short.
here it goes about two months ago, the mister got stung by a stingray while surfing
down at the beach. it was painful and he did what he was supposed to do, which is soak
the area that got stung in scalding hot water for an hour. it was painful and hurt for awhile,
but we thought that the worst part was over. wrong, two weeks later the area started to
look red and felt hot. so off the mister went to the ER. they did what they do in the ER
and the mister came home with a round of antibiotics. great, it's over, were done. nope,
wrong again. another two weeks went by and low and behold the infection came back.
so now off to the podiatrist (recommended by the ER). so the podiatrist did what he
does and sent the mister home with, "the infection is contained to that one area, we can
try to cut it out, which might damage some of the nerves in your foot, or you can tough it
out and let it heal."
okay, we'll tough it out. little did we know that toughing it out would consist
of more scalding hot water to basically boil the infection out of his foot,
but then it turned in to a major secondary infection, causing his whole body to be
weak and lethargic, as well as breaking out with these horrible welt like things on
his legs, that would swell every time he stood up. needless to say it was horrible,
it was painful, it was frustrating!
so basically for the last two weeks the mister was bed ridden and i was on my own with
the kiddo's. it's hard having to juggle two kiddo's on your own and taking care of a sickee.
but, it made me realize how much the mister and i are one. i honestly felt like i wasn't
all there. like i couldn't function properly without him, almost like i couldn't breathe.
even though these things seem like the worst thing ever when you are experiencing them,
i sometimes think we need a little wake up call or reminder to how good things really
are in our everyday life. in the midst of it all we were able to bake cookies for the mister
(that was the little misses idea of a cure all for any illness) and spend lots of time at
home reading books and hanging out with the mister. on the day that the mister had a
doctor's appointment with a specialist, i opened up the blinds in our bedroom and saw
this little guy sitting on our fence. i think he might have been learning how to fly because
he would just take little flights from one end of the fence to the other. but for whatever
reason he was there, he certainly brightened up my day and gave me a little bit of hope
that things are gonna get better....
and they are. the mister has still not fully recovered, but he is finally able to get out
of bed and walk again. you don't even know how happy that makes me, i am so glad to have
my partner, my life, my better half back.
i "dove" you mister!

Odisha Sun Times Bureau
Keonjhar, Dec 14:
In an unfortunate incident, a woman died at Keonjhar district headquarters hospital (DHH) today allegedly due to transfusion of blood of different group into her body.
The deceased was identified as Sukanti Nayak (50) of Puruna Bazar in Keonjhar town. Family members of Nayak have lodged an FIR against CDMO and ADMO at Keonjhar Town police station.
According to reports, Nayak was admitted to the hospital yesterday afternoon due to kidney ailments. Doctors decided to administer her blood following which the family members of Nayak arranged it from blood bank.
However, they alleged that the woman was administered A+ blood while her blood group was O+. The doctors and nurses didn't examine the blood provided by the blood bank, they said.
"Sukanti started to shiver after the blood was administered to her. We immediately called the nurse. She detached the blood unit from her and went away. We couldn't find the nurse after that," said Sri Charan Nayak, brother of the deceased.
Accepting administration of blood of wrong group, Keonjhar CDMO Kabindra Prasad Sahoo said, "The concerned nurse should have checked the blood before administering it to the patient but she didn't do it. This is definitely a mistake on our part. I have ordered for a probe into the incident. Action will be taken against anyone found guilty after the investigation."
Informing about the confusion in blood administration, the official said, "While Sukanti Nayak was undergoing treatment in medicine ward of the hospital, another woman namely Sukanti Nayak was admitted to Gynaecology ward. Both the patients required blood. The blood which was meant to be administered to the woman admitted in Gynaecology ward was given to Sukanti of medicine ward."

Architecture/Methodology/Tools (AMT) Discussions
Goals and Scope
Applying Christopher Alexander's and the Gang of Four's "Design Pattern" concepts to methodology, these discussions will help our group to see the landscape of or various engagements in software design and development with common understanding and perspectives. A slide deck presented on 31 August might help to put this idea in context; it is attached to this page in PDF and PowerPoint formats.
These discussions seek to:
- Improve how we do our work as software designers and developers by assuring we speak the same language about how we work
- Make our work more efficient by lowering communication-impedance
- Make it easier for members of our group to transition between projects, to the extent that we have common methods, processes, tools, and understanding about our work as service software designers and developers
Upcoming Discussions
- October 26, 2010 - "Tools and Methods for Testing Services"
- November 23, 2010 - "Sharing Services - The Vocabulary Problem"
- December 7, 2010 | January 2011 - "Sharing Services - The Person / Profile / AuthN / Problem"
Discussion Topics and Roadmap
Development Environment and Infrastructure for Service Development
- Documentation Strategy and Platform, including a collaborative venue for sharing and evolving requirements, service models, service designs, service contracts, and implementation API documentation; and including curatorial resources/effort devoted to ensure continued usability and navigability as documentation grows organically.
- Issue Tracker
- Source Control Management / Version ControlUnknown macro: {multi-excerpt}
- Development, Integration, Quality Assurance, and Production layers of deployment infrastructure
- Automated Build Process
- Automated Testing (both unit-testing and continuous integration)
- Coding Standards (consistent naming and formatting conventions that facilitate the ability of an organization to maintain code written by a diverse group of programmers) -- noting that consistency and broad acceptance is more important than an 'objectively best' set of standards, and standards that are maintained externally to all Project Bamboo Partners is strongly preferred in order to sidestep disagreements over strongly-held opinions on fine-grained matters of coding style.
- API Documentation Standards (ideally generated from appropriately commented code); generated API documentation must be augmented by class and package introductions that articulate design philosophy and point to related external documentation (papers on algorithms, etc.), and, ideally, by usage examples and (as in the Flickr API) a 'playground' facility for exploring the API from the documentation site/pages.
- Service Versioning Standards (cf. Erl, Web Service Contract Design & Versioning for SOA; this general chapter applies to both RESTful services and those that comply with WS-* standards)
Stages of Realization - From Contract to Implementation
- Service modeling, design, and contract definition are successive stages of detail and commitment in defining the nature and behavior of a body of related services. The Extreme Programming technique of soliciting User Stories as drivers for "Service Stories" has been a useful technique in the CollectionSpace project for progressing through these stages of service definition (cf. CSpace's User Story Repository on the project wiki; and Service Stories in the project issue tracker).
- Service Modeling involves creating a comprehensive view of entities (things being modeled) and operations (things a user might want to do to an entity, such as create or delete it) in a group of related services; and, importantly, the relations between entities. The service model also sketches how services interact with (depend on) each other. These are high level definitions; for example, one might describe a "Person" as an entity in a body of services, but wouldn't worry about whether a representation of a person includes a name, a government-issued ID number, and/or a collection of social networking platforms on which the person is active. Candidate services are provisionally identified as sets of operations (capabilities) that operate on identified entities. Code re-use, contract alignment, or resource-model alignment are core values sought at this stage of service development, and are carried forward to the extent possible:
- To the degree possible, service modeling efforts seeks alignment with related service inventories.
- Service re-use - whether wrapped (e.g., for simplification) or not - is ideal; contract alignment is an interoperability win; and alignment of resource modeling is better than no alignment.
- In some cases, necessary and fundamentally different core assumptions will make this alignment difficult or impossible; but we hold that value in a service-oriented context is deeply tied to alignment at one of these levels.
- Service Design more formally describes services as candidate operations (capabilities) and candidate input/output parameters (messages), where parameters might be complex data structures whose detail is only roughly defined at this stage. Relations between entities are more concretely defined, expressed as service designs that realize the needed relationships. Relationships between services (dependencies) are described in further detail.
- Service Contract Definition involves formal description of operations and messages that constitute each service. Service Contracts can be expressed in a formal definition, such as WSDL or WADL; but in any case conform to an adopted standard (cf. Thomas Erl's Canonical Interface Expression design pattern). Upon release, Service Contracts are subject to a formal governance process (cf. Service Design Principal #2), which preserves alignment to the degree possible (cf. bullet #1 and its sub-bullets, above).
- Service Modeling involves creating a comprehensive view of entities (things being modeled) and operations (things a user might want to do to an entity, such as create or delete it) in a group of related services; and, importantly, the relations between entities. The service model also sketches how services interact with (depend on) each other. These are high level definitions; for example, one might describe a "Person" as an entity in a body of services, but wouldn't worry about whether a representation of a person includes a name, a government-issued ID number, and/or a collection of social networking platforms on which the person is active. Candidate services are provisionally identified as sets of operations (capabilities) that operate on identified entities. Code re-use, contract alignment, or resource-model alignment are core values sought at this stage of service development, and are carried forward to the extent possible:
- Service Implementation is the programming effort that realizes software to fulfill the Service Contract.
- Implementation occurs in iterative, evolving phases, which includes alpha- and/or beta-releases that invite integration and user testing.
- Release candidates are subjected to validation and ratification by both technical Quality Assurance teams and groups of end-users.
- User Experience Design (UX) inquires how different types of users would best interact with service functionality. It surfaces scope boundaries and factors that impact prioritization by discovering needs and workflows natural to users or prospective users of a body of services.
Application and UI Development on top of Services
- <Include issues specific to Application design for applications that are built on top of services.>
- User Centered Design (UCD) methodologies are generally accepted as best practice that leads to successful User Interfaces (UIs). The Fluid Project based at the University of Toronto has developed a Design Handbook that describes tools and techniques to conduct UCD (such as the Fluid Design and Development Process). Project Bamboo utilizes these and related resources to shape its User Interface development.
- Where sequenced (orchestrated?) execution of services is necessary to the production of information to be presented, an application layer of software services (in some methodologies referred to as a "task layer"), distinct from the User Interface, controls that execution. Application or task layer functionality may also include configuration and configurability, personalization, accessibility, and other (often less generic) function.
Technology Selection Criteria
Cf. Bamboo's "Lifecycle - Technology Selection Criteria page
Past Discussions - Minutes, Notes, and Follow-up thoughts
August 31, 2010 - "Patterns for Software Development"
The following notes are culled from discussion among Berkeley's IST-DS Architecture and Design team meeting of 31 Aug 2010:
- A useful pattern for iterative development sprints, particularly where integration of the work of differently-located teams is in play, is: Dev Sprint | Dev Sprint | Refactor/Rearchitect Sprint
- It is difficult to engage users for feedback in initial stages of a project large enough to require foundational work, because foundations aren't usually interesting to users and there's often 'nothing to see' until some amount of foundation-building is accomplished.
1. It is critical to anticipate this problem, and to drive toward a stage of work that will most quickly engage users (whether 'end users' who evaluate a UI, or service consumers who evaluate a services API)
2. Identifying and resolving strategic technical questions – rather than all technical questions – then driving toward modest implementation may be a strategy for success.
3. Identifying areas in which "we are fighting our tools" may be a way of uncovering strategic technical questions
4. It would be worthwhile to investigate whether this topic has been written about / discussed by respected members of the agile / extreme programming communities.
- Any agile process requires a "no fear" or "it's okay to fail" ethos. This is not easy to build in the absence of time – and face time – so in a distributed project it is key for project leadership to work consciously at establishing and supporting this ethos. Failing early facilitates succeeding early.
- It's important to acknowledge the organizational and institutional contexts in which software development occurs. When "first movers" gain some advantage or other circumstances occur to politicize adoption of design patterns, it is easy to commit to technically irrational decisions. This is a circumstance to be avoided.
1. Relatedly, it is not possible, let alone easy – or even appropriate in all circumstances – to 'impose' professional software engineering standards on 'academically-embedded' IT organizations

Persicaria Perfoliata.
I know it. You know it. We all know it. Anyone who has ever spent a day working out in that one patch of hedgerow that you swear, every year, you're going to get to, and sometimes you even do -- you head out with your clippers and your wheelbarrow and your gloves, your sleeves and your pants long in the summer heat, knowing that you are bound for heat rash and sweaty shirts and maybe, eventually, a break in the shade when the sun moves behind the trees…
Persicaria Perfoliata.
Gardening is fun. We like gardening. Pulling up weeds and planting new things and hauling out the blackberries and the overgrown grass and the dead branches and the poison ivy and the PERSICARIA.
If ever anything could force you to give up and turn that one patch of your hedgerow over to the forces of nature, exclaiming "fine! I give up! You can have it!" -- it's persicaria perfoliata, the gardener's bane.
