The Chair of Working Group I, Mohamed Mahmoud ould El Ghaouth (Mauritania), called the meeting to order and announced the Groups agenda and organization of work. The Group will consider the Global Mechanism, administrative arrangements for the designation of a Permanent Secretariat, financial rules and programme and budget. Delegates agreed that Working Group II would meet Thursday and would not meet when Working Group I discusses programme and budget.
The Chair noted that, on designation, the G-77 and China have an official document on the matter (A/AC.241/WG.I(VII)/L.1), which was transmitted from previous meetings. On financial rules, the text is consensus language with one issue pending. The programme and budget issue is new and time will be allocated to discuss the preliminary text. The Group therefore would not be able to aim at a definitive decision on this matter, but comments would be taken into account and a full-fledged budget would be submitted at the next stage.
On the Global Mechanism, he noted that INCD-9 was close to a satisfactory solution regarding the mobilization of financial resources. The text on this issue is bracketed in the draft that was forwarded from INCD-9. The three alternative versions for the paragraph were drafted by the G-77 and China, the OECD group of countries and the Chair. He asked delegates to try to arrive at a definitive decision and sought their flexibility.
The Netherlands, on behalf of the EU, emphasized that they are pleased with progress that was made at INCD-9. He noted that agreement on the functions of the Global Mechanism in paragraphs 1 (collecting and disseminating information), 2 (analysing and advising on request), and 3 (promoting actions leading to cooperation and coordination) had been reached. He stated the EUs assumption that the brackets around the entire text could be removed once agreement is reached on paragraph 4 (financial resources). The EU believes that the basis for this text should be found in the Convention. Article 21, paragraph 4, states that the Global Mechanism is to promote actions leading to the mobilization of financial resources, and does not provide for a new funding mechanism. The Global Mechanism could have a catalytic role in this area, whose operational ways and means could be explored by the Working Group. The EU supports the increased efficiency of use of existing resources, and believes the Global Mechanism could explore the possibility of innovative funding mechanisms and ways in which new funds could be raised.
In the afternoon, Tanzania, on behalf of the G-77 and CHINA, sought clarification from the EU regarding three points from its opening statement: (1) what is the new mechanism that is referred to?; (2) what does the Global Mechanism playing a catalytic role mean?; and (3) stating that no new mechanisms should be set up while proposing innovative mechanisms appears contradictory.
BENIN concurred with the G-77 and China. He also noted that the sentence in the EU statement referring to the need for efficiency and effectiveness of existing funds... to maximize their effects in the implementation of the CCD and that the GM could explore the possibility of finding innovative funding mechanisms... are in consonance with the G-77 and China position at INCD-9. Thus, there already is a basis on which the Group could begin negotiation.
The EU responded to the issues raised. The Convention does not provide for setting up a new mechanism for the implementation of projects and programmes, but enables the setting up of a mechanism that promotes a more effective way of spending existing funds and fund raising. He gave three examples of what could constitute a catalytic role: facilitating the availability of funds for projects to be funded; giving advice on how to find funds; and conducting feasibility studies. On the perceived contradiction between existing and innovative mechanisms, the US gave the examples of adapting the debt-for- nature-swaps concept to debt-for-desertification funds and the use of funds from the private sector. The US later asked whether the answers to the G-77 and Chinas questions were satisfactory. TUNISIA stated they were satisfactory but not convincing.
IRAN supported the G-77 and China position. He added that although there is agreement that the Convention should not be renegotiated, the objectives of the Convention cannot be achieved if adequate resources are not provided for the Convention. He also suggested that the Committee utilize the first option of paragraph 4 (the G-77 and Chinas) as a basis for negotiation.
GREECE noted that the OECD group of countries had, at the suggestion of the Chair, concentrated on the third option of paragraph 4 (the Chairs), which was extensively discussed during INCD-9. Alternatively, they could work on the second option of paragraph 4 (the OECD group of countries). He also proposed a new sentence to be added to subparagraph (c) of the second option, which reads: This would include playing a catalytic role in facilitating the availability of funds for project and programme design and development, from multilateral and bilateral sources, including those that may be made available from the host organization.
BENIN responded that there was no agreement yet on a specific option of paragraph 4 as a basis for negotiation and added that the new sentence provided by Greece was already contained in the G-77 and Chinas proposal, thus the first option could be used for negotiation. Delegates expressed their preferences for the text on which to base the negotiations. COLOMBIA and others supported the G-77 and China text. BOLIVIA, supported by BENIN, stated that a consolidated text would be a major step forward. GREECE indicated that the OECD group of countries was following the Chairs suggestion that the Chairs text provide the basis for negotiations, but welcomed comments on other texts. JAPAN did not support a negotiation on a specific text as the basis for negotiations. The Chair stated that his text could not compete with the text of sovereign countries, and suggested a first reading of the other two options. He converted the session into an informal meeting and delegates began to offer comments on the paragraph.
INFORMAL WORKING GROUP ON PARAGRAPH 4: BENIN supported mobilizing and channelling financial resources to all levels for the title. GREECE supported promote actions leading to the mobilization and channelling of financial resources to all levels, and also noted the need to see what the text would be before a title is selected.
BENIN stated a chapeau was not necessary for the paragraph. GREECE and the US supported a chapeau similar to that in the third option, promote actions leading to the mobilization and channelling of financial resources to all levels in accordance with the provisions of the Convention. AUSTRIA suggested that the chapeau text could be added to the first subparagraph (mobilize financial resources). BENIN suggested that the chapeau text could be one subparagraph. The US stated that a separate subparagraph would not maintain the relationship between the texts. ALGERIA proposed adding a reference to debt recycling in the subparagraph regarding mobilizing financial resources.
GERMANY stated that he was experiencing d�j� vu and that delegates were exchanging the same arguments that they had exchanged before.
BENIN, supported by SENEGAL, clarified that subparagraph (c) (facilitate transfer of technology) in the second option and subparagraphs (b) (efficiency of existing financial mechanisms) and (c) (facilitate transfer of technology) in the third option are agreed. It is subparagraphs (a) (mobilizing resources) and (b) (channelling resources) in the first and second options and subparagraph (a) (mobilization and channelling of resources) in the third option that need to be negotiated.
The Chair said that the first reading of the text had been satisfactorily concluded and that negotiations would resume Thursday. He expected a core group of representatives from the G-77 and China and the OECD group of countries to remain for negotiations on Thursday evening, 9 January.

One of my daughters and her husband have a wonderful family tradition. Each evening at dinner time they go through a ritual called, "rose, thorn and bud." They go around the table and each person in the family is asked to express one good thing about the day, one thing that was hard, and something they are looking forward to the next day. The best part of this tradition is the first part — "the rose" — because it invites each person to find the good in their day and be grateful. This invitation to find the good in their daily lives is a wonderful way to cultivate the important attribute of gratitude in a child's life.
In the Book of Mormon, Amulek invites a group of people to "live in thanksgiving daily" (Alma 34:38). Teaching our children to live life with appreciation and gratitude for the many blessings they enjoy daily accentuates the positive and helps them feel happy and positive about life.
Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin said this about the characteristic of gratitude, "It is a quality I have found in every happy person I know. It is a quality that instantly makes a person more likeable and more at peace. Where there is an abundance [of gratitude], there is happiness" ("Live in Thanksgiving Daily," BYU Speeches, Oct. 31, 2000).
What parent is there who would not want this for their children? And yet, more and more we live in a world where even though our youth experience an abundance of material blessings and have unlimited opportunities for rich experiences, they often feel a lack in their lives. One thing that is sometimes missing is this feeling of appreciation and gratitude for all the blessings they have been given.
As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, it might be good exercise to take a look at the ways we can cultivate the quality of gratitude and thankfulness in our lives and in that of our children. One way is for us to develop what President Thomas S. Monson calls "an attitude of gratitude" in all that we do ("An Attitude of Gratitude," Ensign, April 1992). If we as parents make a conscious effort to express our appreciation for our children, for the gospel, for material blessings, and for every good thing in our lives, often and out loud, it will set a pattern for our children to follow. It will help turn their thoughts away from themselves, and they will naturally begin to look for the blessings in their own lives.
This is a good time of year to plan a family home evening where we consider the many ways the Lord has blessed us in the past year and to express them to one another or to write them down as a part of our family history record. We could hold a family home evening lesson where we use the topical guide in the scriptures to find and read as many scriptures as possible about the importance of gratitude and giving thanks in our lives. Here are a few good ones with which to start: Doctrine and Covenants 59:21 and 46:32, Mosiah 2:19-21, and this joyful one from Psalm 100:3-4. When we read Doctrine and Covenants 59:5-7, "Wherefore, I give unto them a commandment. Thou shalt thank the Lord thy God in all things," we begin to understand as Elder Marion G. Romney once pointed out that gratitude "is not merely a courtesy, it is a commandment as binding upon us as any other commandment" ("Gratitude and Thanksgiving," Ensign, November 1982).
We can teach our children that one of the most important parts of any prayer is gratitude. Taking the time to express gratitude to Heavenly Father for His bounteous blessings each time we pray over our food, say personal prayers, or hold family prayers teaches children to be mindful of their blessings and express them before they ask for more blessings.
Expressing gratitude often for the ultimate gift of the Atonement reminds children of the Savior and of His importance to each of us. We might even occasionally offer a family prayer that consists wholly of expressions of gratitude for the bounteous blessings we enjoy as a family. What a wonderful message for our children to hear.
Teach children to take time to write thank-you notes or letters of appreciation to friends and family members for kind acts performed for them or just to say "I love and appreciate you!" Teenagers and young children alike could be reintroduced to the joy of sending a beautiful handwritten note on paper to a friend or loved one instead of a texted message or email. Begin by writing and leaving notes of appreciation for your children when you observe them doing something noteworthy.
The daughter I mentioned in the beginning came to live with us with her three young daughters while her husband was deployed on an extended military assignment. Their "rose, thorn and bud" tradition became a favorite part of our day. Often, their "roses" were as simple as, "I liked looking at the clouds today" or "a friend was nice to me at school." As we watched each of these then small girls take time to think about the best part of their day and express their feelings about it, we found ourselves searching to find the blessings we had experienced and feeling excited to share those with them. That simple moment of gratitude and of acknowledging blessings brought a feeling of joy into our home each evening.
I have always loved this scripture from Psalm 118:24 which declares, "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Making gratitude an important part of our lives invites the Spirit and reminds us to be joyful.

Americanist Heresy (Truth is now Taboo, Part Two)Posted by Brad Littlejohn at 12:32 PM
The forced resignation of Van Jones for his former questions about 9/11 displays another frightening feature of the American political landscape—the new religious tests applied to office-holders. The eradication of religious tests for public office during the 18th and 19th centuries in America, and shortly afterward in Europe, was hailed as a great victory for liberty—now at last we had true freedom of speech and freedom of religion. These tests, you see, meant that, while you could believe whatever you wanted as a private citizen, you were required to adhere to a certain creed (whether it be Lutheran, Anglican, generically Protestant, whatever) if you wanted to hold public office. This was eventually regarded as an intolerable infringement of liberty and done away with.
However, today, we have by no means escaped from such infringement. There are still rather strict limits on what you are allowed to believe if you want to hold public office; only now, they pertain not to any traditional religion, but to the American civic religion; now, they cannot be found in any written creed, but in an invisible, unspoken creed which is policed by fellow politicians and by their lapdogs at the media. Despite the supposed diversity of opinion and freedom of speech in our government, the truth is quite simply that the state religion is Americanism, and if you question or doubt the tenets of this state religion, you have committed blasphemy, and are unfit for public office. Witness, for example, the violent backlash Ron Paul encountered when he suggested merely that US foreign policy might have had some influence on provoking terrorists to attack us.
And here, we see it again—a government official is complete unfit to hold office because he had doubts that the Bush administration was telling the truth about 9/11, which is now the #1 Saints' Day for the American civic religion. This is not because such doubts are irrational…on the contrary, any objective reflection on American policy over the last century and the policies of other imperial powers throughout history would strongly suggest cause to doubt the official story. On the contrary, the only objection to these doubts is that they are blasphemy against the saints of the state religion, that they are heresy outside the carefully policed bounds of Americanist orthodoxy.
Witness the comments of Sen. Kit Bond, calling for a Congressional hearing into Van Jones's fitness for office last week: "Van Jones signed a petition from the so-called "Truther" movement which suggests that the Bush administration 'may indeed have deliberately allowed 9/11 to happen, perhaps as a pretext to war.' I can imagine few sentiments more repulsive to our brave fighting soldiers and the victims of the 9/11 terror tragedy than to think the U.S. government deliberately allowed the events of 9/11 to occur." Notice again—the only charge leveled against these sentiments is that they are "repulsive"—dishonoring to the saints and martyrs of Americanism. The problem is not that they are untrue, irrational, or morally reprehensible—only that they are repulsive to the ears of orthodox Americanists.
Of course, this is not the first time we have witnessed this sort of behavior in America—McCarthyism was a notorious witch-hunt against any who transgressed Americanist orthodoxy (and perhaps the spirit of McCarthyism has never quite died since). But this new development is frightening, because McCarthy was one man—a Robespierre that could be brought down by more sensible colleagues. The new advocates of McCarthyism are Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and the rest, and are insinuating themselves into the minds of millions of Americans through the all-pervasive media of radio, TV, and internet.
This replacement of creedal religious tests with state-religion tests is a return, it seems, to the days of the Roman empire. Oh, what a time of liberty and freedom! You could believe whatever you wanted in the Roman Empire, right? Well, in terms of traditional religions, yes. But no heresy was allowed on the state religion—the one absolute requirement in the Roman Empire was that you accepted the sanctity of the state and the righteousness of its cause, and honored its saints and martyrs, whatever else you wanted to believe on the side. If this is really what we are returning to, then I am sick of hearing about what a wonderfully free country we live in.
Of course, it is worth observing that "religious tests" for public office have perhaps always been more about state religion than about real religion. Louis XIV's enforcement of strict Catholicism on his subjects was much more about preventing blasphemy against Louis than against the Virgin Mary; and the same pattern of course manifests itself in Anglican England and Lutheran Prussia, etc. Constraints on liberty have always come not so much from religious intolerance as from statist absolutism. But you'll want to buy Cavanaugh's latest book for all that.

I used this for my 10" FLI sub. I used the 12" version so it will cover everything because I wanted to retain the outer rim of the subwoofer, though I had to put four (4) 1" x 1/2" foams around the rim so the speaker wont hit the grill when it's pounding. It's easy to install and is well built. The design is nice too.

I used this on a 10'' speaker setup and it worked well.It seems strong enough to protect the speaker from getting banged up and/or punctured.I especially like the vinyl " outer edge-guard".It allowed me to trim the mesh to my specific needs and cover it with the guard for a nicely finished look.

I bought these for 10" Kicker subwoofers and they fit great. The similar 10" grill was too small - the Kicker cone surround touched the grill. These were just the trick.
Easy to attach, did not buzz or rattle. The seem very durable, custom matched grills look better. But they are 2-4 times the price.

this grill was installed on a set of mtx 12" terminator subs.
the grills with inserts didn't exactly fit since the terminator subs
had such high rubber surrounds. i used a few o-rings for each
insert (or feet).
this grill does the job, keeps stuff in trunk from hitting the subs.

What can I say really, I just needed something to protect my sub from damage and this fit the bill. Its affordable enough that it doesn't matter if you ding it all up throwing junk in your trunk.
Its not pretty, but again, its cheap, and does the job its intended for.

Bought this to cover a Rockford Fosgate Prime 12 inch sub. Its simply too small in diameter. The very edge barely reaches the inside edge of the sub screws. Not sure what subs it will fit, but it definitely didn't fit a Fosgate entry level 12.

I got one of these to protect a Powerbass 12" sub and it fits perfectly. Gives enough room for long excursion and is sturdy enough to protect the subwoofer from most common accidents. The brackets are plastic but strong enough to hold the grille in place. It doesn't come with any screws but for a standard waffle grille well under ten bucks I can't complain, especially when local car audio shops want two to three times that much for basically the same product. I would not recommend this grille for a sub with an extra large rubber surround like a Fosgate P3, any Fosgate Power subs, or higher end JL subs, but for standard 12's it should fit fine.

I went with a 12 to cover a 10. Worked well but definetly had to still put something behind it to extend it out. Doesn't rattle or anything wierd like that. Works well to protect the sub in my work truck. I needed something to keep small sharp parts form getting to the cone and this does the trick. My only gripe would be that I would gladly pay another 5 bucks for this if they used a little bit thicker stamped steel, it is wafer thin stuff. Also throw the stock mounts away.

In my class we are reading Stephen King's novella "The Body." In one chapter of the book the narrator specifically discusses a dream he had.
Today's class we talked about the significance of dreams and different ways to interpret them.
There are SO many different ways to do this lesson, but this was how I did it today. You can easily do a lesson about dreams without using, "The Body," and it ties in quite nicely if you choose to do the Dream Flag project later.
To start I had created this little slips of paper. I basically made note of different idioms, songs, and movies that invove dreams.
I divided them in half and gave each student part of a phrase. They had to try and find someone who made sense with theirs.
NOTE: There were technically different "correct" answers. You can grammatically say, "Be in a dream," but it doesn't have any special meaning in English.
After a few minutes I gave the students some clues.
For example, "On of them is about a baseball movie with Kevin Costner," "One of them is something you say to someone when their dream is impossible." etc.
After a few more minutes I went through the numbers and let the students read their phrase together. If they correctly made an English phrase I congratulated them and asked them what it meant. Then as a class we went over connotation and denotation. If you want to do more activities with the dream words check out the vocabulary post.
Finally, my students were ready to start the lesson. I like this warmer because it gets them moving, thinking about dreams, focusing on different idioms, and thinking in English. It can be done in five minutes, or you can spend more time on it if you wish.
As a class, we read the story out loud (try popcorn reading!). From time to time we stopped and went over different words or discussed what the author meant. If you're reading chapter 15 you'll know it is when the boys are camping in the woods and they think they hear a ghost!
We discuss words they may not know and what the author is mentioning (cats being in heat for instance).
The chapter ends with his dream. We discuss the different parts to be sure that students understand the essence, then we talk about possible symbols. What does drowning usually mean? Why is Chris drowning etc.
When I was in University I backpacked a lot. Sometimes, as a way to make friends, I would walk fellow backpackers through these imaginary woods. As they walk through the woods in their brain you ask them specific questions. later you explain that these questions were asked to figure out more about the person. I'd explain what certain things symbolized and even when people disagreed they enjoyed it.
There are a few different versions of this going around, but here's the version I like best. I made it into a PowerPoint with pictures to help students who may be stuck. We also learned a few new words like, "to wade through water" (which will actually come up later in, "The Body!" After students take the imaginary walk through the woods we discuss what else the objects could symbolize and whether or not they think this, "test" is accurate.
In order to tie this back into, "The Body," we ended with the students wrote about one of the characters walks through the woods.
For example, "Gordie would walk through the woods with Denny. Even though Denny has passed away Gordie mentions him a lot through the story. I feel like Denny didn't change Gordie's life really until he died."
This helps students get used to writing explanations, dealing with different points of view, and reinforcing their understanding of characters in, "The Body."

Buck 30's trip reports of the entire INT. He disliked the Northern part of INT and loved the Southern part. All my conclusions and recommendations refer to the Negev section of the INT only!
Did I like this trip? Yes, tremendously! In fact, this is one of my Top ten hikes ever! I have hiked ten thousands of kilometers and I have hardly ever been on a trail where there are so many highlights every single day. When it comes to spectacular landscape this is one of or even the best hike in my entire career. The Negev is simply breathtaking!
But would I recommend this hike to a friend? It really depends on the friend. This is not a hike for everyone and despite all its beauty I can see how this trail can also turn into a nightmare! Why?
First of all this is also most technically difficult trail that I have hiked. You really have to climb at many places and these are not easy climbs. I was very happy to have a hiking partner this time to help me lower and lift our packs and have back up in case of an emergency. You don't have to be an athlete though - even teenage school kids manage to hike the trail. But they are in a group, have no backpack and can help each other. If you want to hike the INT in the Negev alone you should be sure footed, have no fear of heights and be fit. Very few diffult sections are equipped with ladders or cables to help you! Definitely bring trekking poles and try to keep your backpack weight as low as possible. At least navigation is not an issue. The trail is very well marked. You don't need a GPS. A smartphone is enough as a backup for navigation.
But there is the water problem. We have hiked in winter with very low temperatures but also very little daylight. In December 3 to 4 litres per day were more than enough but hike earlier or later and you will be in trouble. Hiking the INT without expensive water caches is more than doable though. Just have a look at Buck 30's excellent water report
that tells you all that you need to know. The only English guidebook of
the INT by Jacob Saar is a total failure in this respect: It hardly
describes where the water sources or even misses them! The guidebook is
only good for its detailed maps - forget about the trail descriptions or good planning advice.
Then there is also the "night camp" issue. Officially you are only allowed to sleep in the official night camps. You are not even allowed anywhere else in the Negev at night. And there are rangers who are controlling it - and fining offenders. These night camps can be totally deserted - or full of more than 100 screaming schook kids. Most of the nights camps we passed were full of school kids... Like Buck 30 we mostly stealth camped using LNT principles. Decide for yourself what you want to do!
Also keep in mind that Israel is not a cheap country. In fact I found only two things to be cheap: bus travel and mobile communication. Buses run everywhere (except on Shabbat!) and you have cell phone coverage even in the desert. But everything else is expensive. You will not to be able to splurge or treat yourself very often. Bring hiking food from your home country if possible. There are a lot of trail angels along the INT though.
The Negev is one of the most impressive and fascinating places I have ever been. Just make sure it is not more than you can take.

Love their crazy hair-do's!
Two photos of the spring beauties out in the garden was all I was able to take.
We have gale force winds out there. Again.
It was way too hard trying to get the flowers in focus, they were moving about
all over the place.
Well lunch break is over, back to work for awhile this afternoon.
Back out into the freezing cold wind.
At least it is not raining...yet.

There are so many things that I say in a day that I never thought I would. Literally every. single. day. I say something that I think, "I never would have put those words together if it weren't for my kids. Ever." When you combine it with the things that are said back to me, it's just plain laughable. I figure we all say things that looking back are really amusing, and I thought maybe we could share some and laugh together. Who's with me?
Ok, here's a few of my latest.
Me (to Lillie) "You can't run around naked. People will be here any minute."
Lillie "It's ok mom. I will hide in here."
Me "You can't just hide. You need to get dressed. No one wants to see your bum."
Lillie "Why?"
Me "Because it's not modest, because I said so, because I'm the mom, and because you will get sick if you don't."
Really. I went there. This isn't even the weirdest conversation we have had today.
Oh, here's a good story that happened just yesterday. I walked into the bathroom to Lillie wiping her nose.
Lillie "My nose has something on it."
Me- wipes Lillie's nose, throws away wipe, and starts to walk out the door.
Lillie "It's hurting. Something is hurting inside my nose."
Me -walks back into the bathroom and looks inside Lillie's nose. "What the heck? What is that!"
Lillie "I don't know"
Me- sees a spongy matter inside Lillie's nose and grabs the tweezers to remove. What looked like a little tiny piece of sponge turned out to be a one inch piece of foam from our love sac. "What? Why? How?"
Lillie "I don't know"
Me " We do NOT put things in our nose. Especially pieces of foam."
The jury is still out on why that happened because we can all assume the "how" of that one.
Have you ever noticed that when you are telling your kids things they can't do that you say "we" instead of saying "you"? Things like "We do not hit our sister with a fork." or "We do not wrap washi tape around chairs." Can you relate?

Clean the van payar well and get rid of the unwanted stuff from it.
Cook it separately with water in a pressure cooker and make sure u don¦t overcook it.
3)Remove the first 3 v 4 outer covering of the vazhappoo and chop the rest very finely as u do for thoran.
4)Add coconut oil and turmeric powder into the above chopped kodappan and mix well the whole thing using your hands to remove the kodappan¦s serum.
5)Place together the grated coconut, green chillies, cumin seeds and curry leaves in a mixer bowl and run it once to make it into a coarse form.

A frown on the face to show the disappointment for those foodies who like aromatic dishes for lunch/dinner and a big smile for those on a diet and like to have good, healthy fooda. :-) An honest confession at this point....I used to be in the first category during my childhood days and now considering the nutritional and medicinal values it offers, a slow transition has occurred to the latter one. No regrets though!!!! As said, eat healthya.be healthy!!!

Thoughts of Reservoir Management Studiesby Morris Israel, Univ of California, Davis, United States,
Kenneth W. Kirby, Univ of California, Davis, United States,
Jay R. Lund, Univ of California, Davis, United States,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Water Policy and Management: Solving the Problems
Changing water use patterns and priorities, the high cost and uncertainty of developing new supply sources, increasingly stringent environmental regulation, and the desire and need to serve additional and often competing purposes has led to a reassessment of national, regional and local water supply projects. The authors have had some role in reassessments of four major U.S. reservoir systems and have endeavored to keep up with progress on other systems and with the academic literature on the subject. Some synthetic thoughts and lessons are offered regarding the development and implementation of reassessment programs.

Decoding the Design of Motivation by Rob Swan – a BrandSquare Live Session 5/22
As humans, we look for meaning in everything we come into contact with. We can't help it, we're born dot connectors…compelled to deduce and deduct. For us, understanding meaning and reflecting it back into the world defines who we are: our behaviors, feelings and our perception of the world around us. It's the same for brands.
In a new BrandSquare Live Session, Thursday, May 22, 2014 at 1 p.m. EDT, Rob Swan, SVP and Executive Creative Director at Brandimage, part of our brand development group, presents Decoding the Design of Motivation. He'll discuss how design can be elevated beyond what is seen, but how it also defines what is felt by walking through questions such as:
• Does your brand have a clearly defined purpose that sets it apart from all the rest?
• Can you clearly articulate the enduring nature of your brand's character, core brand values and behaviors?
• Is your brand acting consistently and authentically in telling its story?
• Does your audience intuitively understand, trust and care about your brand story?
• Is every aspect of your brand designed to intuitively deliver meaningfully aligned benefits?
Don't miss out on this opportunity to see firsthand how design can incite emotions to tell stories that spur action, gain trust and build equity. Register now!

Despite China's weaker than expected manufacturing data for October which is fanning concerns about the country's slowing growth, analysts say the data suggests that the economy remains very much in policymakers' control and is headed for a soft landing.
The official Purchasing and Manufacturing Index (PMI), which gathers information from the country's biggest manufacturers, came in at 50.4 for October, missing markets' forecast of 51.6 and dipping from September's reading of 51.2.
"We're definitely of the view that China is successfully engineering a soft landing, at the moment, given IPs (industrial production) still running at above 13-14 percent, and the fact that the PMI [is] returning back to a positive, above 50 territory. We do think that actual risks of China heading towards a hard landing are limited," Donna Kwok, Greater China Economist at HSBC told CNBC on Tuesday.
A separate PMI compiled by HSBC, which focuses on the small and medium-sized enterprises, came in at 51.0, a solid rebound from the 49.9 recorded in September. A reading above 50 indicates expansion while a figure below 50 denotes contraction.
"Finally, smaller players in China's manufacturing sectors are starting to see the benefits of the government's recent selective easing policy," said Kwok. "This policy includes both more favorable credit policies, directed at smaller to medium sized enterprises, and also as of last week, a new plan specifically targeting the service sectors, sector companies, with a lighter tax burden."
Brian Jackson, senior emerging markets strategist at Royal Bank of Canada (Hong Kong), notes that the lower official PMI number is understandable and "quite" consistent with the weaker external demand picture, particularly from Europe.More and Source

"Sherlock" fans, Martin Freeman may have just made your day, and maybe even your year.
Co-creators Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss announced back in February that Season 4 of "Sherlock" may be delayed for two years due to Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman's busy schedules. However, Freeman teased a bit of secret news that may change things.
While appearing on Alan Carr's Channel 4 talk show "Chatty Man," which airs on Friday, April 25, Martin said, "Mark Gatiss may beat me up, but there is an idea for this one-off special that's such a good idea." Wait, what was that Freeman?!
"As I was listening to it," Freeman continued, "I thought 'we've just got to do this.' It's a fantastic, really mouth-watering idea. But I really don't know when we are going to get to do it."
"Mouth-watering," huh? We trust Watson on that and really hope this one-off episode thing happens soon.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to figure out how to pipe a filepath to the open command in TC Shell.
What I'm trying to do is, to pipe the outcome of "which" (to find the current location of another script) to the default text editor.
I tried
which testscript.pl | open -e which doesn't do anything.
which testscript.pl | open -f opens up the text editor but only displays the path and filename of the script in a new textfile, instead of displaying the file itself.
Anyone an idea of how to do that? I tried to google it, but didn't really find anything useful...
Thanks in advance.

When you (or little Leo) make a call on your cell phone, the telephone sends a signal to the nearest telecom tower cell website. Frequent travelers, mountain climbers, bikers, hikers, motorcyclists, horseback riders and joggers are just of the handful of of the men and women who might want to consider wearing a tech ID. Most of these ID bracelets are made with lengthy-lasting, versatile, waterproof bands, so they'll hold up no matter what outdoor or extreme sports somebody does.
It really is going to expense you a lot extra than these bargain bin backlinks you will see in other web pages but they will retain your internet site on the front page for significantly longer. LinkedIn is generating it less complicated for its users to take a closer look at what's going on inside of firms they stick to – like their competitors. Finally, I would appreciate for folks to post in the comments section if they have other recommendations for sites comparable to these that possibly are not that properly-known.
If you are seeking for some of the web pages like Hubpages that are constant and effortless to operate with, Redgage must be your best bet. Although they do not admit it, just a glance down is adequate for anyone to know that they have borrowed most of their concepts from web sites like Reddit. Suitable behind Wired on Amazon's list of very best selling tech magazines is Maximum Pc. This is a magazine created for correct laptop enthusiasts, the content is tailored for sophisticated customers , not newbies. These web-sites could function products or solutions that could be advertised on your internet site.
An iPod Touch is almost certainly the least highly-priced tech gadget to think about for this goal, and it really is not a negative idea to look into discovering one particular utilised, in order to preserve your costs low.

I am not tech savvy at all, which is why HP functions for me for the reason that I never have to code or anything like that.
Articles are a bit tricky suitable now as a lot of post sites have began to use NoFollow. Hacker News is a single of the most effective web sites like Reddit for all the tech enthusiasts who are into hacking. She subtitles her book A Life in Two Worlds," and it offers fascinating insight into her journey from the tumultuous occasions of China's Cultural Revolution her into the rough-and-ready worlds of tech startups. Offered the hype as properly as my unyielding dedication to make life less complicated and a great deal extra relaxed, I've gathered some more web pages equivalent to Lifehacker with the very same aspirations in mind.

Err... I mean, after you're done with your trot (and canter and walk).
It's the middle of summer here and the heat is all-pervasive. On the hottest days, many of us stop in at the barn just to hose down the horses to give them a little extra comfort.
I tend to make my rides considerably shorter on hot days, depending on how my horse feels. However, during the time that I do ride, I still ask for energy and impulsion, helping my horse do his best to move in a healthy manner and carry my weight properly. In other words, I don't let the ride become a "plod along and flop" episode just because of the heat.
Assuming all goes well, and the horse feels fine, I'll ride for up to a half hour, with some (stretchy) walk in between. Sometimes it feels fine to ride in the heat if you keep moving - it's only when you stop that you can feel the true strength of the sun beating down on you and your horse.
Here are a few ideas to keep you and your horse cool during these
dog horse days of summer.
1. Watch for signs of overheating.
In your own case, you can tell the beginning of overheating by how hot your face feels. Know how red your face gets and what that means. Some people get a seriously red face and it's normal for them. I usually don't get a lot of change so a red face for me means that I'm moving into the overheating stage. I can also feel it while I'm riding - if I feel like the heat is radiating off my face, I know to call it a day. I've also been known to grab the hose and soak my whole head and face with cold water. That usually does the trick.
In the case of your horse, you can monitor several signs. Keep track of his breathing. If his sides seem to be heaving a lot sooner and with less work, take it easy.
Sweating is a key component of cooling down in the summer, so if you don't see sweat coming from your horse, you can be worried! Do you know that horses don't have the ability to pant like dogs? So they must rely on losing heat through their skin. Sweat helps to cool down the horse's internal body temperature by carrying heat out with sweat through the pores - creating a fairly efficient cooling system when considering the large muscle mass of horses.
Sometimes, the sweat builds up to the point that you see foam on the neck, between the hind legs, or on the face. If your horse starts foaming quicker than usual, pay attention. People have often been told that only unconditioned horses foam when worked. That isn't exactly true. Even the fittest horses, who are used to working in heat, can foam any time there is an increase in heat and humidity or level of work. Foam isn't all bad, but be aware of what is usual for your horse.
Also keep an eye out for other signs. If your horse seems to become lethargic, or loses focus easier than usual, then consider calling it a day.
2. Modify your ride.
Consider your options.
Ride earlier in the day, or later in the evening. Stay out of the sun in the middle of the day when it's hottest.
If you can't change your schedule, you can always decide to make it a shorter ride.
You could stay in the indoor ring if you have one. The roof over your head will give enough shade, although in some arenas and depending on the breeze (or lack thereof), the heat might just stay in and make you feel like you're in an oven.
Or go for that ride on the trails that you've wanted to do. Riding under the trees and in the woods is a completely different experience although you should keep the humidity factor in mind.
3. After the ride.
Your after care can make all the difference.
Remember that sweat is filled with electrolytes and the various forms of salt that are expelled stick to your horse's skin. Just as you wouldn't want to walk around sticky and feeling a burning sensation in your salt-encrusted skin, so does your horse deserve a nice cool down and wash off before you leave him for the day.
Grab the hose and give him a full-body hose-down. Make sure you run the water over all the sweat areas, and wait until the sweat suds have all been washed off. Get underneath the top layer of the coat and clear out the mud that sticks to the skin.
Hose the front of the chest, the belly and between the front and hind legs. Those are all arterial areas and so they carry the highest amount of heat. Just running cold water on those areas helps considerably with the horse's inner body temperature. Make sure that you finish by scraping all the excess water off the horse's body.
I like to finish off by running a light stream of water over my horse's face. This takes a little repetition for the horse to get used to, and you might need to have a secure area to tie him to when you start to teach him. But I can tell you that once the horse knows how good a face wash can feel when he's hot, he'll learn to appreciate it. My horse now knows to point his face directly into the hose and let the water hit his forehead. He closes his eyes and licks the water as it drips down over his face!

Unanswered Prayers - Garth Brooks
Sometimes I thank god for unanswered prayers-Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs-That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care-Some of god's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. (He answered Garth, - He just said "No")
Sometimes we think God doesn't hear us or doesn't care what we need or desire, but God hears all of our prayers and He faithfully answers each and every one. It's just not always the answer that we wanted or that we expected. Sometimes it's easier to say God doesn't care than to accept that what we wanted may not be what we really need or now may not be the time for it.
Jeremiah 29:11 says For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you, plans to give you hope and a future.
When one door closes another door opens; but we so often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us. ~Alexander Graham Bell~

My artwork is diverse in materials, style,
technique, and content. It is difficult to explain the diversity,
except to say that I love to experiment and I am drawn to
new challenges. I work with wood, metals, cement, plastics,
and found objects. Some of the threads that tie my work together
are humor, a fascination with curves, motion (or implied motion),
and an interest in the human condition. My sculptures can
roughly be divided into two parts--decorative works and social
My decorative works include freestanding
sculptures (indoor and outdoor), wall pieces, and mobiles.
They range in size from tabletop pieces to a 200' long
outdoor sculpture installation. These works tend to be curvy, abstract, distorted
geometric forms. Most embody a strong sense of motion. I am
intrigued by motion or, more accurately, the paths taken by
objects in motion. I love to let my eyes trace the path of
a bird swooping through the air or a fish gliding through
water. Many of my sculptures are like 3-D snapshots of such
While most of my decorative pieces contain
aspects of implied motion, the mobiles are literally in motion.
The delicate balance and subtle, graceful, gliding motions
of mobiles have intrigued me since I was a child. As a sculptor
I appreciate the ever-changing shapes and intersections of
My works of social commentary include the
American Artifacts series, figurative pieces, and other works.
These pieces often include an element of humor. The materials
are often related to the meaning of the pieces. Some pieces
are based in my personal experiences and struggles; others
are derived from my observations and understandings of the
world around me.
The series American Artifacts is a group
of mixed-media sculptures accompanied by text. The work is
created and presented in a form that simulates an exhibit
in a natural history museum. At first glance, the sculptures
appear to be artifacts from some foreign or primitive culture,
but on closer inspection one finds that the "artifacts"
are derived from objects common to modern life in the United
States. The accompanying text describes the objects in a style
reminiscent of the descriptions one might find in a natural
history museum beside stone axes and broken ceramic figurines,
yet it refers to our own culture.
A significant amount of my artwork has included
the human figure in one form or another. My work has included
life-size figures, portions of figures, and installations
using mannequins. I find something particularly compelling
in life-size human figures. They tend to create a strong presence
in a room regardless of the style or material. We are "programmed"
(psychologically if not biologically) to relate to the human
form in certain ways. When a viewer encounters a figurative
sculpture he brings a certain familiarity which at least for
a moment, allows him to feel a likeness to the sculpture.
The viewer also feels his difference of course, and from this
contradiction he must draw some meaning.
In all of my work, whether decorative or
provocative, I aim to offer viewers a new perspective.

Michael Nyman on his Hillsborough Symphony
Composer Michael Nyman has written a symphony paying tribute to the victims of the Hillsborough disaster. The work will be performed for the first time for families in Liverpool on Saturday.
Michael Nyman is an avid football fan.
During a break from rehearsing his Hillsborough symphony at Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral, he discusses his composition while watching Germany play France in the World Cup on his laptop out of the corner of his eye.
With the commentary turned down and an occasional glance at the screen, he recalls the symphony's origin.
It was May 1985 and Nyman was settling down to watch the European Cup Final between Liverpool and Juventus in Brussels.
He had been commissioned to write a piece of music for a festival in France, to be performed in a decommissioned electricity generating station. Because of the acoustics and reverberation of the venue, it needed to be a slow piece.
Heysel memorial
"During the course of writing the piece, I sat down and started watching what I thought was going to be a Liverpool versus Juventus match at Heysel stadium. And I saw what I saw, which was mayhem and death."
Thirty-nine Italian and Belgian fans died after Liverpool fans rushed towards rival supporters, causing a stampede and a crush when a wall collapsed.
"The piece very quickly became a funeral piece, basically, for the Juventus fans who were killed," Nyman says.
"The piece of music acquired a subject matter and an identity without any intention on my part. The composition slid into being a memorial piece."
The composer and musician tried to have the work, titled Memorial, performed in Liverpool in the ensuing years, he says, but met resistance in the city.
Then one Saturday afternoon in April 1989, Nyman went into a recording studio to record Memorial for the first time.
"Whenever I record on a Saturday afternoon in a studio, I'm constantly listening to the radio to football reports and football results," he says.
"So every time I had a break in the recording studio, I was trying to see what the scores of the two FA Cup semi-finals were.
"One match, the scores were very easy to find, But the other, because I thought I was listening at the wrong time, the Liverpool [versus] Nottingham Forest match, the report didn't come up.
"I finished the recording session and went to Liverpool Street station to get on a train and I had my transistor with me and I listened to the whole report of the Hillsborough disaster.
"The mysterious and rather spooky aspect of it was that this was the very, very first time that I'd taken that [Memorial] music out of the box since that one performance in the electricity generating station in '85.
"So I thought this musical material was totally spooked. It was rather unnerving."
Seven years later, Nyman adapted the piece to incorporate soprano Sarah Leonard singing the names of the 96 victims and it became Hillsborough Memorial.
'Surviving corruption'
So when he was commissioned to write something for this year's Liverpool Biennial, the city's major arts festival, he decided it was "obvious" that he should expand that Hillsborough Memorial. It is now Symphony No 11: Hillsborough Memorial.
The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra will perform the piece twice on Saturday - a public premiere and one concert for about 200 family members of Hillsborough victims.
He sounded out representatives from the family groups before taking on the commission, he says.
"They've not only obviously survived the deaths of their loved ones but also survived and still survive corruption," he says, referring to revelations that more could have been done to help some victims and that police changed evidence to avoid blame after the event.
"And also the fact that they've been, for a lot of cultural reasons, treated like scum and not given their voice," Nyman adds. "You might say they're getting their voices back now. But it's 25 years too late."
He adds: "That's just [coming] from me as an outside observer who's got no great affection for Liverpool Football Club. I'm a QPR fan, and in 1976 QPR would have won the old First Division if Liverpool hadn't drawn their last match."
Nyman is arguably best known for composing soundtracks to films including The Piano, Gattaca and The End Of The Affair.
But the Hillsborough Symphony is also a way of reclaiming Memorial, with its solemn strings and funereal brass, for its original purpose after it was used in Peter Greenaway's 1989 film The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover.
'Loathsome' scene
"Even though I'm grateful for this piece becoming well known through the film, I'm more than slightly embarrassed," Nyman says.
"When I saw the film and saw that he had used that recording to accompany a scene where a dead body is being cooked and the main character is forced to eat the dead body, I still find that scene totally loathsome.
"Since the piece was originally associated with real dead bodies, the idea of this gruesome.
"That's the thing about writing film music - whatever your intentions are, you can't control how it's used or where it's used. This was an extreme case that I still find tasteless.
"But I feel that by putting it back into this context, I've paid my dues for giving it to Greenaway and allowing him to use it for some very, very dodgy sequences."
Before going back into the hallowed and cavernous heart of the cathedral to continue rehearsals, Nyman turns back to his laptop to watch the second half of the Germany v France match.

Phone Append
Phone Append processes use the name and address information (and sometimes other data) you already have to find phone numbers. But PacificEast doesn't just have one flavor of Phone Append, we have seven. Our business information services have access to the largest number of independent contact data repositories (both public and private) in North America so we can make sure you get the best phone number available to meet your needs. For a quick reference to all of our Phone Append products check out the Quick Reference chart below.
If you'd like to know more about appending phone numbers, click
to receive our whitepaper.
Why not have just one product like most Phone Append service companies? Simple: because
not all phone numbers are the same
and because
phone number availability depends on your company
. The best available phone number varies by several different factors including:
Your type of industry (or in some cases, your customer's type of industry)
What you plan to do with the phone number
Whether or not you have "Permissable Use"
The geographic location of the phones for which you are searching
The types of phones for which you are searching
In order to serve this wide variety of uses and industries, PacificEast's line of Phone Append products include:
Compiled / Whitepages
– Compiled (sometimes referred to as "whitepage") Phone Append provides you with access to the largest number of phone numbers at the lowest price point. This repository is generally updated monthly with new numbers. If you're looking for the best price, this is your best choice.
411 / Directory Assistance
– Directory Assistance Phone Append (sometimes referred to as DA or 411) provides you with the highest level of currency and accuracy. Data in this repository is updated daily in most cities with new listings, disconnects and contact data changes directly by the relevant phone company. If you're looking for the most current data, this is your best buy. Since this repository of residential data is considered a publically available source, DA & 411 phone numbers are available to all companies for any legal purpose.
– Business phone numbers are available in the Business Phone Append. This repository has the same quality and recency as our residential 411 data, but contains only listings for businesses.
– PacificEast's Restricted product line includes the premier repository of non-public phone numbers in the US. This repository is available only for specific uses. Some of these uses depend on your industry so we recommend contacting us for details on your planned use and we can tell you if any of our Restricted products are right for you. Our restricted repository includes cell phone numbers, unpublished and unlisted residential and business phone numbers. If you're tired of "number not found" messages and are not making outbound marketing calls, this repository might be right for you.
(Note: This product requires an additional data use addendum to be signed.)
Restricted Landline
– This version of our Restricted Phone Append product does not include cell phone numbers. This is most useful for companies that are allowed to use restricted phones but for other reasons cannot make calls to cell or wireless phones.
(Note: This product requires an additional data use addendum to be signed.)
United Kingdom / UK Call Prep
- Like our other phone appending services, our UK Call Prep service that covers the United Kingdom finds and verifies telephone numbers based on the names and addresses you provide. However, in the UK regulations and systems aren't identical to those in North America; even the processes considered "best practice" differ between the UK and US. Our
UK Call Prep
service performs the essential elements of appending phone numbers but also automatically checks phone numbers against the UK Telephone Preference System, or TPS. TPS, like DNC in the US and Canada, ensures it's ok for the number to be called even without previous permission. In the UK (where the
calling number
pays the bill) the regulations for calling cell phones are different than in the US and Canadian (where the
called number
pays the bill). We've designed our UK Call Prep system to work seamlessly along with our other phone append services so PacificEast can be your single, one-stop shop for phone appending in the US, Canada and the UK.
– PacificEast's repository of Canadian data brings you access to another 14 million Canadian phone numbers including both businesses and consumers. In Canada data "currency" varies by province with some provinces allowing daily updates and some monthly updates. If you are either a Canadian business looking for new customers or a business outside Canada with a desire to market to or contact businesses and consumers within Canada, this is a great choice.
– Also called an
SSN Search Contact Append
, this product appends not just a phone number but also a full name and address from a social security number and surname.
(Note: This product requires an additional data use addendum to be signed.)

A Newbery Christmas, selected by Martin H. Greenberg and Charles G. Waugh
(1991, Delacorte Press, ISBN 0-385-30485-4)
This book is for a different readership than what I usually post, but it's a great book to check out!
A Newbery Christmas features fourteen Christmas stories by Newbery Award winning authors. Some of the stories are excerpts from one of the author's books (like "Ramona, the Sheep Suit, and the Three Wise Persons" from Beverly Cleary's Ramona and Her Father), and some seem to be the full award-winning text (such as The Hundred Dresses, by Eleanor Estes). Some are humorous fiction (E.L. Konigsburg's "Eliot Miles Does Not Wish You a Merry Christmas Because…", for example), and some are moving non-fiction (I think, including "A Candle for St. Bridget" by Ruth Sawyer ). There seems to be a good sampling of different styles and themes, so there should be at least one story for everyone!
In addition to all the stories, there is an index including brief biographies of all the authors from the anthology. Here you can find the name of the book (or books!) that won the Newbery Award and in what year.
I haven't been able to read the entire volume yet (there are nearly 200 pages), but most of the authors are very familiar to me, and those who enjoy these Christmas stories and haven't yet read the Newbery Award book that qualified each author for the compilation should be motivated to do so! This book is intended for all ages–children and adults–but you may want to pick and choose which stories you read aloud to your younger children because some of them are rather long or would require a more mature understanding of the world than your children may yet possess. Good upper elementary through high school readers should be able to read all of the stories independently (with maybe a little help from Google for some of the terms in the older stories). Start with your favorite authors in this one, but make sure to read it all the way through; I know I will!
Newbery Medal Home Page (American Library Association)
Additional titles:
(poems and short stories illustrated with prints of "oil paintings from the Edwardian and Victorian eras, as well as…black-and-white engravings from the same periods.")

Welcome to the Education and Outreach Site for the CSULB Center for Human Factors in Advanced Aeronautics Technologies (CHAAT).
As a NASA Group 5 University Research Center, the Center for Human Factors in Advanced Aeronautics Technologies (CHAAT), performs on-going research to measure human performance in complex systems such as the Next Generation Airspace Transportation System (NextGen). We will also participate in the development of students in human factors and related disciplines.
The increased demand for human factors' training stems from the growing tendency to rely on technology and automation for solving capacity problems in large-scale systems such as NextGen. Through research and educational development, CHAAT intends to increase the number of degrees awarded to students in the aeronautics field, especially those from minority, women, and underrepresented groups.
Below are three programs that highlight our Educational and Outreach Activities.

Some may have wondered if council had turned over a new leaf considering the brevity of the last few meetings. May 15th has shown they haven't.
The Committee Of The Whole meeting was the longest I've attended and, at 5 hours, likely the longest so far. The reasons for this can be found in the discussions flowing from the delegations and topics: water rates, money, marijuana and recording inCamera meetings.
At one point emotions ran so high that two councilors left the room leaving only the Mayor and two other councilors in the chamber – not enough for a quorum.
The Regular Meeting
The main part of the meeting went relatively smoothly. It was the Late Items that carried the heated discussions from the COTW into the evening meeting. On of the main results of this is: The funding that the city provides to the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce has been put in abeyance. For a non-profit with a new board and a large part of its remit to support tourism this is extra bad timing: tourism season is about to commence and they have to hire a new Executive Director. All with a gap in funding.

Russia to Cap Hotel Prices during Winter Olympics
Keen to keep high prices from scaring off tourists, Russia is capping high-end hotel room rates at $450 a night during the Sochi Winter Olympics of 2014, with regular rooms guaranteed at as little as $209 a night.
Russia has poured billions into development around Sochi, hoping to showcase Russia's ability to host a major event and boost its international image during the two weeks of games. Near Sochi and in nearby mountains, Russia has built venues for skiing, figure skating, curling, hockey, and thousands of hotel rooms to accommodate guests.
The Kremlin is hoping that the Olympics could transform Sochi, long popular among Russians as a Black Sea summer vacation town, into a year-round resort area of international stature. Workers completed a special rail line that will ferry spectators in and out of the mountains. President Vladimir Putin took a ride on the rail line over the weekend, whose main station is within easy distance of his Black Sea residence.
