International Business Travel Costs Climb - American Express
A look at business travel prices in the first quarter reveals that U.S. companies faced significantly higher international airfares and hotel rates than a year ago.
High prices cast a shadow on domestic business travel, too, as business airfares, hotel rates and car costs rose briskly - prompting companies to attack travel budgets by pulling back on first-class air travel and using more negotiated discounts and cheaper, but non-refundable, leisure-type airfares, according to data from American Express Consulting. During the first quarter, the percentage of tickets sold in both first class and full-coach fare categories sank to record lows, holding business travellers` average fare paid to a more modest 6% year-over-year increase. "Even with a profit crunch on, travel is a necessary part of doing business for many companies," said Rusty Carpenter, Vice President and General Manager, American Express Consulting. "So, more firms are laying down the law on everything from disallowing first-class travel, to using hotels in suburban or airport locations rather than downtown, to requiring travelers to gas up before returning rental cars."
The International Composite in American Express` BTM, which tracks several categories of airfares from the U.S. to 160 overseas cities, reveals that high-end business airfares have risen significantly year-over-year. In the first quarter, international First Class fares climbed 9% from the same quarter last year, while Business Class skyrocketed by 15%. Yet, the data reveal that more business travellers are booking Business Class - often at lower rates, thanks to more competitive discounting in this class of service by carriers serving these routes for their large and mid-sized clients. As a result, the Average Fare Paid in the BTM`s international city pairs was only 5% higher than first quarter 2000 - just a third of the rise in Business Class prices.
In the first quarter, Business Class, as a percentage of total tickets booked by American Express Corporate Travel customers in the BTM`s international city pairs, increased three percentage points from a year earlier, to 50%. Meanwhile, the share of First Class, Full Coach and Discount Economy tickets fell. Still, for some companies struggling to trim T&E budgets, flying coach rather than high-end may be the only cost-containment option.
"Where it`s possible and not too much of a hardship for travellers, firms are taking advantage of excess coach capacity on some international routes to book the lower fares," said Carpenter. "Companies can save thousands of dollars per ticket."
The BTM data also reveal the state of business airfares in North America: stable but high. During the first quarter, the Typical Business airfare across 329 North American city pairs tracked by the BTM held steady from January through March, but was 12% higher than the first quarter of 2000. Typical Business is generally the lowest fully refundable economy-class fare available to business travellers with no more than three days advance purchase.
At the same time, the advance-purchase Lowest Discount fare across North America was 8% below the first quarter of 2000. But, evidence that companies are intent on cutting air travel costs appears in the distribution of tickets by fare class: the shares of both first-class and completely unrestricted full-coach tickets booked by American Express Corporate Travel customers in the BTM`s 329 city pairs have fallen to record lows. BTM first quarter data shows that business travelers booked 2% of tickets in first-class, down from the 3 percent share in the same period last year. Meanwhile, travelers booked only 7% of tickets in full-coach fares, a substantial five-percentage point drop from its 12% share the same quarter a year ago.
Most significantly, 91% of all business trips were flown on discounted economy-class tickets, including negotiated discounts and non-refundable fares, an increase of seven percentage points over last year. Seven years ago, in first quarter 1994, 17% of tickets were booked at full coach fares, and only 80% of business travellers used a discounted ticket. "With the weakness in the economy, it`s getting harder for companies to justify first-class travel," added Carpenter. "Business travel standards have changed. The expectation today is that employees will use lower leisure fares whenever possible and use the company`s - not their own - preferred carriers for the negotiated corporate discounts." As a result, the Average Fare Paid by business travellers across North America during the first quarter - including discounted and non-refundable fares was 6% higher than the first quarter of 2000, only half the rise of Typical Business during the same period.
First quarter BTM data reveal that, like global air travel costs, business travellers` average lodging rates rose significantly from a year ago. However, an analysis of rate trends within several top U.S. cities reveals savings opportunities. Across the U.S., the Average Booked Rate was up 7% above first quarter 2000. Pockets of healthy demand and tight room supply in several cities have kept prices high, for instance, in San Jose, in California`s hi-tech Silicon Valley, where average rates in the first quarter rose 16% higher than a year ago. In San Francisco, the average booked rate rose 9% higher than the first quarter of last year.
"There`s a different picture shaping up for the second quarter," noted Carpenter. "As demand has eased somewhat due to a slowing economy, a lot of corporations have used this opportunity to renegotiate, and hotel rates are leveling off." Similarly, in traditional business centres such as Boston, New York and Chicago, where demand is still significant enough to sustain higher rates, the BTM tracked year-over-year increases in average rates of at least 5%. Meanwhile, in meeting destinations such as Orlando, Miami and Phoenix, average rates were up 11%, 10% and 10%, respectively. The recent hotel construction boom has taken its toll in other cities, including Philadelphia, Salt Lake City, Charlotte, and Pittsburgh, where the average rate declined by 2 - 5%.
Despite overall increases in average rates across the U.S., BTM statistics on rate trends within certain cities` various business districts point to optional bargains for corporations. For example, in Atlanta, the midtown district saw average hotel rates in the first quarter rise 21% over the same time a year ago, driven up by rising demand and limited hotel development. Conversely, rates in Atlanta`s NorthWest/Cumberland and airport areas fell 3%.
Meanwhile, the international average booked hotel rate during the first three months of the year was up 16% over first quarter 2000. At that rate, overseas lodging costs rose by more than twice the U.S. increase. A look at 41 overseas cities spotlighted by the BTM reveals that several cities in Europe and Asia recorded the highest year-over-year increases in average booked rates. At hotels in Copenhagen, which is experiencing high occupancies and limited property development, rates in first quarter rose 33% higher than a year ago.
In Asia, where many hotels have raised prices as recession pressures eased, average rates during the first quarter at Beijing hotels rose 29% higher than first quarter 2000, while Hong Kong rates rose 22%.
Business travellers` car rental costs have climbed, too, pushed up by rental agencies` surcharges and rising fuel prices, which are often included in the total cost of a rental.
According to the BTM, the average daily cost of renting a car while on business in the U.S. during the first quarter was 4% higher than a year earlier.
"With rental costs up, companies are focusing on making sure employees mind rules on renting vehicles, for instance, filling the tank before returning a car to avoid high refueling charges," said Carpenter.

Well about 3 weeks ago, the end of summer, Zee asked if I could give her a hair wrap. I said yes and here we are today. Time passed by and she wasn't ready to take it out for school. But here hair wrap had other plans.
Zee: "Mommy you would not believe what kind of day I had today."
Mommy: "What kind of day did you have."
Zee: "here"
Mommy: "OMG, your hair wrap fell out."
Zee: " all I did was touch it and it fell out.... and my hair is still it. And, you wouldn't imagine I held it in my hand at school all that time."
Mommy:"why did you hold it in your hand and not put it in your bag?"
Zee:"because it fell out."
How long should a hair wrap stay in?
No longer than 3 weeks, I would say. Or you may run the risk of losing that portion of hair.
Be careful not play, twist, and touch your hair wrap to much. This will cause it to twist and tangle at the root. At the root, once tangled the hair becomes fragile which leads to it breaking out at the root.
To preserve your hair wrap:
minimize touching
pulling on your hair wrap
twisting of any kind
Ps. Zee is looking forward to getting another hair wrap. OMG

Bull Cart Puller- A Case Study
Photography: Salman Saeed
Turning his head sideways so that the sun did not fall directly on his eyes Mohammad Siraj told me that he used to be the assistant of a cart puller when he was a young boy. From there he had learned how to take care of bulls. But he does not let his son come near the bull cart. He does not want his son to become a bull cart puller. He wants his son to grow up and study and do a proper job where he could have a good living. He lives in Nawabpur and every morning he walks to Kamrangichor to take the two bulls and the cart that he rides. From there he goes to Shadarghat to collect the goods and deliver these goods to the instructed place.
He is not satisfied with what he earns. But there is something about this profession that really thrills him. It's the ability to be able to control the bulls. While saying this, a smiled formed at the corner of his face. It makes him feel empowered. Hearing him say this made me think. This person who is deprived from so many things in life, who has to take orders from others day in and day out, feels good about the fact that there is some being whom he can boss around, even if it's just two animals.
Bull Cart Puller
Photography: Salman Saeed
Bull carts are not seen in all parts of Dhaka very often. But in Old Dhaka, if you go around the streets you will come across many bull carts everyday. Especially if you are in any street that is linked towards Shadarghat, you will definitely see a number of bull carts pass by.
From early in the morning the work of the bull cart puller starts. These people are very hardworking. They not only look after the bulls but they are also responsible for the bulk of goods that they collect from the Shadarghat and take to the destination. They work from sunrise to sunset taking goods to and fro. Most of the pullers are people who do not own either the bulls or the cart. They cannot afford to buy these. There are people who give bulls and carts for hire. The pullers take it from the owners early in the morning and return them at night. So, everyday, they have to pay the owners a percentage of what they earn everyday. After that, a very small amount is left for these people and their families. The lives of these people have ended up becoming sad tales that people tell to each other. It's a sad tale of how life has treated these people. The labor that they give is underpaid to the extent to which it can be called exploitation and they don't even have a voice.

Lillian Guerra is the Waldo W. Neikirk Professor of Cuban and Caribbean History at the University of Florida and the author of Visions of Power in Cuba: Revolution, Redemption, and Resistance, 1959-1971.
"Professor Guerra's account of the events leading up to the Cuban Revolution is key to understanding why it occurred and how this history will influence Cuba's future in the post-Castro era."--John Caulfield, Former Chief of the US Interests Section, Havana, Cuba--John Caulfield "This is the story suppressed and smothered over with propaganda by the Castro dictatorship for nearly sixty years. It is written with passionate precision from a personal yet rigorous and thoroughly scholarly perspective."--Roberto Gonz�lez Echevarr�a, author of Love and the Law in Cervantes --Roberto Gonz�lez Echevarr�a "Outrage, pride, and belief in the need for change" characterized Cuba's protest politics as its democratic regime imploded in the 1940s. Guerra traces those themes in her illuminating discussion of often-forgotten key aspects of Fulgencio Batista's dictatorship during the 1950s and examines the rise of opposition, then revolutionary violence against his rule, placing Fidel Castro only as one of many in this multifaceted process. She shows as well how Castro crafted his personal victory in the end. Guerra's impressive research, strong authorial voice, and attention to the views not just of the winners but also the losers, the traitors, and the lowly enrich this riveting account of the making of a revolutionary Cuba."--Jorge I. Dom�nguez, Harvard University --Jorge I. Dom�nguez "This fascinating book undoubtedly is the best political history of Cuba's 1946-1958 period: profound analysis but never boring, great literary readability that prompts continuous readers' interest, a treasure of documented history that reveals many previously unknown, important facts."--Carmelo Mesa-Lago, author of Voices of Change in Cuba from the Expanding Non-State Sector

My almost 11yo daughter has some behavior issues. They were really bad for awhile but since we moved here I thought she had been behaving better but we still have issues with blatant defiance, backtalking and her thinking she can do whatever she want and ignore rules.
Today I got up and she was already "dressed" for school. Dressed meaning she was wearing a shirt (possibly clean, possibly not), her sister's dirty jeans and flip-flops. I told her to change and that she wasn't wearing her sister's jeans to school since her sister just wore them the last 3 days and had splashed in every puddle on our 2 mile walk home from the school yesterday (their brother had a music presentation last night and I don't have a car). I also don't allow them to wear flip-flops to school. It's not technically against the rules but they've asked kids not to wear them because they aren't safe for running in when at recess (not that I think she runs or anything, I'm sure she just stands around) but it's my rule.
She screamed at me, demanded to know why she had to change and argued with every reason I gave her. Then she wanted to know if she could go to some party after school with a friend (they're in 5th grade). I told her no since she argued and hasn't done any chores in days. So then she threw a fit and wanted to know why she should change if she can't go to the party (this is her typical behavior for everything--she demands rewards for doing simple things she should just do like brush her teeth, brush her hair, etc, she refuses to do most of those things).
I told her she was going to get a spanking (last resort when she refuses to behave) if she didn't go do what I told her and her friend was standing right there. She just smirked at me, daring me to actually get up and spank her. As soon as I got out of my seat she ran and locked herself in the bathroom and refused to come out until she had to leave for the bus stop. I had gone to get dressed and when I came out of my room she was gone.
According to my 5yo she was still in her flip-flops and hadn't changed.
Just wondering what kind of punishment this behavior would get in other houses. She doesn't have much to take away (she's long since lost her DS, doesn't have a TV/radio/phone/computer in her room and isn't even allowed to use the computer, she's already had the xbox taken away, doesn't play with toys anymore) and is constantly grounded for one thing or another so that it doesn't faze her any more. She drives my blood pressure up. My other 3 kids behave rather well. They have their moments but usually they just do as their asked/told with minimal whining (usually the biggest fits are because they have to pick up the slack when the 11yo refuses to do chores or because they have to do chores while she sits there pouting).
This isn't about the clothe she wore. This is about her blatant disregard for rules and outright disobedience because I made it very clear that she needed to change and why.

It sounds like you have allowed her to have too much control. She should not get away with refusing to do anything you ask. If she won't obey stay right there until she does. Don't cave! She is used to you giving up so it may take her awhile until she gets the point. If my daughter had pulled that I would have gone and gotten her from school to make her listen so she doesn't think she can get away with just running away and going to school. I know you have mentioned not having a car to use before though. One of my 11 year old twins locked themselves in the bathroom once when they were younger and my husband told her that he would just take it off the hinges to "help her get out". He would have and she knew it. She came out and apologized. I also think that it is not a good idea to have your other kids help with things she is refusing to do. Holy resentment Batman! Good luck and stay consistent.

* Now listen in ... this is a mouse
Although only a pupil, Jimmy T created and maintained his primary school Web pages. He regularly scoured the Web for educational games, which he discussed with his teachers. At the end of the day he went round all of the school computers and ensured they were closed down correctly and that none of the configurations had been interfered with. At home he had written programs and created a multimedia presentation about Robert the Bruce that won a prize in a national newspaper. He helped his father do the accounts using Excel and he had made a simple film which he edited on his cousin's new Apple. Unfortunately, his time at primary school ended and he moved to secondary. His first lesson in the computer room started with the words:
"This is a mouse."
* Where next?
It was hoped that the national curriculum would put a stop to the practice of secondary schools ignoring all that went on in the primary school. Figures still show that children do go into reverse for a time when they go to secondary school. Why couldn't the first lesson be a needs analysis? It might frighten by revealing a diversity but it will give a good picture. At least no one will be able to pretend that pupils are all at ground zero.
* Don't run...walk and take them with you
The headteacher of a primary school saw for the first time an interactive whiteboard at a computer show. Only momentarily dismayed by the price, she was captivated by it. She felt that she could sell the idea to the parents' association and knew there was money from a local trust for innovation. The staff did not share her enthusiasm when they were told about the technology, feeling that the large amount of money could be better spent on other priorities. They could not dent the evangelical zeal of the head who had begun to see it as a way of "taking my school into the new millennium", stealing a march on other schools in the locality and boosting pupil numbers. After an exhausting amount of fundraising, four boards were bought. Three now stand, barely used, beside he ever-popular blackboards.
* Where next?
Most of the staff had basic levels of ICT literacy but resented the way that the boards were imposed on them. Consequently, they exaggerated the difficulties of using them. Would it have been better to introduce one board to one teacher who could see the possibilities and then demonstrate those to her colleagues?
* The right way to communicate
Recently the DFEE has been publicising the fact that 32 per cent of primary school teachers and 52 per cent of secondary school teachers have email addresses. Unfortunately, they do not know how many are being used. They might be interested in this story. At a meeting recently of primary and secondary school teachers, the convenor asked for their email addresses. Only one person was able to oblige and that was their personal email.
* Where next?
There are some counties where all communications between the LEA and the schools are already electronic. This is an LEA problem. They probably have to force the pace with schools and create an environment where email is the communication medium of choice.
* Nonsense at NOF
Some of the really bad practice is in institutions that should know better. Go into most nursery or infant schools and you will hardly be able to tell who are teachers, who are nursery nurses, who are helpers. They work as a team. Helpfully, the TTA and NOF have given you a way to find out. Just ask who is eligible for NOF training and who isn't. The nursery nurses (like supply teachers) are not eligible. Think of it, there are nursery nurses who are so good they can give training but they are not eligible to receive it.
* Where next?
TTA and NOF could change this, should change this. It doesn't apply just to nursery nurses but all assistants in schools, the very people who keep schools running, are not entitled to be trained.
We are looking for more genuine examples of bad practice. If you know of any, please email details to Jack Kenny at firstname.lastname@example.com purpose of this is to encourage good practice, there is no intention to pillory any school or individual. All material that we use will preserve anonymity

- NAME: April III
- PRICE: Low/Medium
- GENDER: Mare
- BREEDING: Marin Garica
- CHARACTER: Extremely nice
- HEIGHT: 164 cm
- DISCIPLINE: Allround
- COLOUR: Bay
This is April, she's been with us since she was born!
She has always been very cuddly and soft with her humans. She can stand with her head in your arms forever and just sleep there. She will go where ever you lead her and she has accepted her rider in the same way.
It's time for us to say goodbye to her now and hope that she will find herself a lovely new family where she can prosper as either a riding horse or a brood mare. Her mother was a very pretty large bay mare that measured 173 cm. Her mother also had a lovely temperament just like April.
She has grown up loose in "the wild" in big fields and mountains so she's foot sure and should have strong nice tendons and joints.
April is solid in walk, trot and canter and she can do a little bit of leg yield and shoulder in. She's been hacked out on the gravel roads around the stables. On our hacks it's quite common for dogs to jump up behind the fenced yards and she's fine with that, also with passing cars and mopeds. There is a tractor in the yard which she is also fine with.
Sometimes a boy that is 12 years old ride her also.
In all handling aspects she is lovely.
She's got strong nice hooves and we have kept her barefoot.
She has quite interesting breeding. On her fathers side she stems from the Marin Garica stallion Pampero V, and from him comes also the very famous Torreluna stallion Remache XIII and on her mothers side she has Ayala and Guardiola.
She's a straight mover and she has cadence.ADD TO FAVORITES!

Two knives
So I guess I have to come right out and admit it.
I am a knife junkie. I can't tell you how many I have; in reality, way to many. Nothing expensive, nothing collectible. But far too many sharp edges to really justify.
However, I thought I'd share a few thoughts about a couple of my favorites. Both are fixed blade, "bushcraft" type knives. All around good cutters, both have a Scandinavian grind on the sharp side, a flat spine and handmade sheaths.
The first is a SWC bushcraft knife that is really similar to a Ray Mears- wood lore type of knife. The differences are pretty subtle, and I don't really know what they are to be honest. But I ordered the bare blade from Steve Cox in the UK, and was really pleased with what I got back. sharp, flawless, it had his initials etched into the handle area as well as the Rockwell readings for different areas of the blade. Shame I had to cover them up with handle scales! I filled out the handle with liner-less zebra wood that was scrap from my hunting bow, and pinned it with homemade mosaic pins. After a bit of filing, sanding and shaping, I am really pleased with this knife. I can get it absolutely razor sharp with my japanese water stones. I finished the kit up with a handmade British bushcrafter style sheath and a fire steel topped with cocobollo wood (that also matches my hunting bow). I hardend the sheath with wax using a process similar to the one outlined by alpharubicon and Old Jimbo. Tough stuff! Steve was great to work with, although I understand his wait time has grown exponentially since I aquired mine. He is also a one man shop who makes knives one at a time, so if you are looking for something one-off or something totally unique, shoot him an email. It may take a bit for him to get back to you, but the quality of knife you'll recieve is top notch!
My other bushcraft favorite is the Enzo trapper. Bought this one a while back from Ben's Backwoods and love it. I got the birch handle kit and it couldn't have been easier to assemble. The scales were pre drilled, the liners pre glued. I simply used some two ton epoxy on all sides, and screwed the pins down snug. A day later I began shaping the handle and before I knew it I had a great woods knife. This one also get razor sharp without too much fuss. A side note here would be that the kit I bought from Ben looks like he no longer sells it, however, he now has more choices for handle woods which you simply by with a knife blank. Ben is great to deal with, by the way, and I'd recommend him to anyone. I finished the Enzo off with a mule deer antler tipped firesteel and a more Western style sheath.
The blade of the Enzo is about an inch(2.5 CM) shorter than the SWC, the grind is a bit more acute on the Enzo than the SWC, and the blade shape is obviously different. I think because of the blade shape I'd preffer the Enzo to the SWC for skinning chores, but other than that there is no clear winner for me.
The knives are neck and neck in nearly all aspects. Both can carve, both can be sharpeded to an absolute razor edge. Both fuzz sticks like no one's business.... both are strong contenders if you are looking for that "one knife" to take into the woods with you.

On CNN just now, I heard yet another soldier repeat the mantra that if they don't fight the enemy in Iraq, then the enemy will be over here, attacking us in the U.S.
Bless his heart and bless him for his service. May God protect him and may every American citizen love him.
Who has made this soldier, and so many like him, think that fighting in Iraq makes the United States of America unreachable and invisible to any terrorists who wants to attack us? I would really like to know who the hell is feeding our soldiers this complete and total false logic? Or are they simply telling their own selves this to be able to stand fighting in this war?
Our soldiers are not fighting "our" enemy. They are fighting because they are being attacked by Shi'ites and Sunnis both because they are standing in the way of the Shi'ites and Sunnis who are simply trying to kill each other.
By being there, they are only making the situation worse and the fault for that lies solely at the feet of our so-called President Bush.
But that is beside the point. The points are: fighting in Iraq is not protecting America, it is further endangering America; fighting in Iraq does not make the United States invisible to those who would be our enemies; fighting in Iraq does not make those who would be our enemy unable to come to the U.S.; fighting in Iraq sucks up billions and billions of dollars that could be spent to make the U.S. more secure from those who would be our enemy gaining access to our citizens, our cities, our power plants, our infrastructure, our everything and so endangers us more.
If our enemy was a standing army, supported and sponsored by another country, then our best defense would indeed be an offense by what should be the most powerful military force in the world.
Our enemy is not. Our enemy is a loose confederation of terrorists, supported by some independent multi-billionaires and possibly some elements of some countries, perhaps, able to fight only by inspiring fear and terror by direct attack on our citizens, able to infiltrate into this country and bomb, and kill, and terrorize. The only way to defend against such an enemy is to actually defend the borders, and protect potential targets, and by all out police and investigation activities against these criminals. Which is exactly what is not being done to the extent it should be done because we are spending our treasure by using our military to police an entirely different country!
The only possible route to victory is acknowledging this truth and changing our actions appropriately. That is victory.
We are living in bizarro world.

To assist listeners in choosing concerts that interest them most, this year we have prepared special passes grouped by area of interest. Each pass consists of concerts carefully selected in terms of style to trace a musical path through the Festival, tailored to suit the individual preferences of our guests. This is a convenient way to participate in many events to get maximum satisfaction from the presented repertoire. Also, pass prices are about 25% lower than the total price of tickets to concerts comprising the path purchased individually.
The following passes are available:
The Festival in a Nutshell – concerts selected to showcase every type of music to be found in this year's programme of La Folle Journée. This pass is perfect for those who want to get the most out of our festival and are open to symphonic music, recitals, early music and big bands alike. The pass includes meetings with the Festival's greatest stars, but also concerts by the best music school ensembles. The bonus in this path is a ticket to the Festival's final concert.
The Festival in a Nutshell path consists of concerts #7, #13, #17, #28, #41, #45, #57
Price: 82zł (individually 114zł) / buy now
For the Connoisseur – a proposal for the most demanding listeners, for whom La Folle Journée is an opportunity to listen to a pantheon of some of the greatest artists from around the world in the space of only three days. This pass guarantees a weekend of lively discussion about interpretative details and less-than-obvious ways to depict dance in music. Stylistically, the path provides an exceptional variety of genres, from early music to contemporary works. The concerts in the pass also enable convenient participation in other events during the La Folle Journée Festival, selected individually by each listener.
The For the Connoisseur path consists of concerts #12, #23, #30, #36, #46, #52
Price: 72zł (individually 102zł) / buy now
Weekend – All the hits, without any fuss and bother. An excellent way to spend a pleasant weekend with the most famous dances from the classical and film repertoire, with a hefty dose of musicals and jazz standards. An excellent first encounter with symphonic music. We recommend to complement the ticketed concerts comprising this pass with free events taking place in the Festival tent, especially concert #42, at which you will hear Ravel's famous "Bolero" and concert #56 with flamenco music and dance demonstrations and workshops.
The Weekend path consists of concerts #9, #20, #25, #35, #48
Price: 60zł (individually 80zł) / buy now
The Alternative – an ambitious proposal for those who like to wander off the beaten path. An appraisal of carefully selected events that distance themselves from the mainstream of classical music to travel into territories of experiments with sounds and original combinations of styles. The path also includes interactive events that engage participants to undertake performative action.
The Alternative path consists of concerts #6, #27, #32, #43, #55
Price: 60zł (individually 85zł) / buy now
Through Time and Space – for those who are fascinated by the variety of dances around the world. The pass leads the listener through a wide range of national dances, from Balkan folk, through traditional Latin-American dance and flamenco, to the oriental sounds of Japanese music. The pass is additionally enhanced by presentations of historical dances from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. For those interested in early music we recommend to extend this path to include a performance by the Ricercar Consort (concert #12 or #41), which specialises in historically informed performance of music from the Renaissance and the Baroque. To further extend your participation in the Festival, we encourage you to attend free concert #56, combined with flamenco demonstrations and workshops.

Q.Do you think that sex is the most important part, the be-all, end-all, everything in a relationship? If not, how big a role should it play?
A. Sex is most definitely not everything. If sex were all that there was, then most relationships wouldn't last for more than a few weeks, if that. The most important ingredient is love, but there's also intellectual stimulation, the ability to make the other person laugh, emotional support for each other, the pleasure that comes from just looking at the other person, the sound of their voice, the touch of their hand, the smell of their hair. I could go on and on, but there are so many factors in a relationship, and they're all important, including sex.

Archive of films How Close to It I Am / Jak blízko tomu jsem
Czech Republic
2016, 34 min
Section: Czech Films 2016–2017
Work, friends, home. What constitutes mind-numbing routine for some people is, for 26-year-old Petr, an opportunity to contemplate the everyday life around him. In Václav Hrzina's film this young man will perhaps never say what he really wants but, occasionally, in the silence, you can hear what he's thinking.
Twenty-six-year-old Petr lives in Prague, where he works for a decorating firm. He spends his free time with friends, mostly chatting about ordinary things. It's a quiet life and there's not much that ruffles his feathers. But Petr doesn't really mind; he's content in his role as a perceptive observer of the familiar city around him. By monitoring apparently trivial episodes, director Václav Hrzina pieces together an image of a young man who perhaps will never say what he really wants. But occasionally, in the silence, you can hear what he's thinking.
Jan Škoda
About the director
Václav Hrzina (b. 1975) studied film direction at Prague's FAMU, graduating in 2016. At college he made several short and medium-length films, such as The Wish (2008) and Moment of Absence (2011). He was involved in feature films by colleagues Tomasz Mielnik (Journey to Rome, 2015) and Vít Zapletal (Dust of the Ground, 2015). He finished up his film course with How Close to It I Am.

That was a great night at a Brazillian restaurant (we've been there twice now), talking art, taking silly photos, and eating ourselves to the extent of popped jeans.
Working hard and socialising with some greatly talented and inspiring artists. This is the Imaginism Workshop.

If travelling with Trenitalia, you need to know the Montevarchi to Treviglio train schedule: the first train leaves at 04:57, while the last ride is at 22:51. A Montevarchi to Treviglio train cost about 58.55 €. But how long is the train ride from Montevarchi to Treviglio? Your journey takes about 5 hours on average.

This article explains the network infrastructure requirements necessary to run Imagine Español successfully. It explains the network speed required to stream media on a user workstation or device, as well as to accommodate media stored locally on the user workstation or device. It also explains any Internet connections that need to remain open and accessible.
Imagine Español uses media files that should be whitelisted to avoid potential client issues. These media files are compressed .tar files for pre-caching; .ogg and .ogv files for PCs, Macs, Windows devices, and Chromebooks; and .mp3 and .mp4 files for iPad and Android devices.
Required network resources
Bandwidth (streaming media)
50–60 MB of data per student during a single 30-minute session
The total bandwidth required to stream media to the user workstation depends on the number of active students using Imagine Español. For scalability reasons, you can use this calculation to determine how much bandwidth you require: Number of concurrent students × 60 MB × 8 megabits ÷ 1800 seconds = Total Mbps needed
Bandwidth (media stored locally)
15–20 MB per student during a single 30-minute session
An available static IP address and network port per Imagine Español server
Port 8080 open on internal network to stream media from Imagine Media Server to user workstation or device.
An outbound Internet connection to:
- media.imaginelearning.net to access the upstream Imagine Learning Media server at the Imagine Learning CDN for content updates
- services.imaginelearning.net for support and reporting purposes

Whose Hip Hop is it anyway?
Here's an interesting article on the efforts of the Hip Hop Generation in keeping Dr. King's legacy alive. The web links are impressive and worthy of perusal.
On Hip Hop and Human Rights...
By: Tchaiko Omawale
Mainstream media loves Dr. King`s "I have a dream" speech. The desire to portray Dr. King as a "safe" pacifist Black man who simply wanted Blacks and Whites to come together is inaccurate. Dr. King also protested the Vietnam War and, in the "I have a dream" speech, spoke of police brutality, unjust imprisonment, and warned that "1963 is not an end, but a beginning. Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual."
Decades later, it seems the nation has returned to business as usual. It might be argued that we have more Blacks in positions of power than ever before: in government, the private sector and especially with hip hop becoming a billion-dollar industry. However, for people of color in the U.S., police brutality is still a problem, schools are still largely segregated with sub-standard education levels, the prison population is exploding especially with non-violent offenders, and HIV/AIDS is ravaging the Black and Latino populations. Not only has the call for civil rights not been answered but the neglect of human rights has also come to the forefront of the injustices of this government.
Unfortunately, the older generation frequently sees the hip-hop generation as having reversed the gains of the civil rights movement. Publicly, the Sit-In generation has attacked figures in hip-hop music for using the "N" word and portraying negative images in the media. However, this is only a small section of the hip-hop generation, and even those being attacked deserve more respect and understanding, as the world we live in is far more complex than it was in the `60s. The hip-hop generation is neither resting nor tranquil. Instead, we are struggling to resist injustice in our own ways.
To constructively criticize the hip-hop generation, understanding the world we live in is essential. The world has shrunk with advances in the Internet and other communication tools. The current generation`s struggle is not as simple as Black and White getting along, or Blacks getting the same treatment as the few, rich White men in power, but is layered with issues around globalization, homophobia, sexism and an America that has become expert in hiding its injustices by using the very people it is racist and unjust towards. One example is seen in ads run in 2003 by the U.S. army in hip-hop Source magazine that attempted to recruit black teens. The army used hip-hop imagery to seem cool, to entice teens to fight for a country that has failed to secure their basic human right to education and health care and increasingly imprisons them for non-violent crimes of poverty.
Increased individualism is another consequence of our technological world; however, the struggle to survive and uplift community still remains as it did in the civil rights era. Consider commercial rapper Jay-Z, who says, "Truth be told … I wanna rhyme like Common Sense (But I did five Mil) … We as rappers must decide what`s most important and I can`t help the poor if I`m one of them. So I got rich and gave back. To me that`s the win, win." Jay-Z has chosen his own way of giving back, using money from his lyrics.
On the other side, you have rappers such as Dead Prez who advocate revolutionary actions reminiscent of the Black Panthers. Dead Prez are members of the National People`s Democratic Uhuru Movement and have participated in countless political events and panels. M1 of Dead Prez sits on the advisory board of a new organization called H2Ed a Hip Hop Education Program along with several other hip-hop figures such as Danny Hoch from the Hip Hop Theatre festival.
H2Ed uses hip-hop culture as a tool for educational reform. So while the music industry remains the focus of criticism, it should be known that there are scores of other youth who are struggling to uphold Dr. King`s message. Many young people who don`t have Jay-Z`s millions choose community-organizing as their way of giving back. The global village of this generation consists of identities beyond Black and White-Latino, immigrant, homosexual-and thus organizing platforms follow these multiple identities.
Youth-led Prison Moratorium Project has a multi-ethnic staff and is a part of the Drop the Rock Campaign, which fights to bring down the Rockefeller drug laws. The group`s grassroots collaborative work encouraged Russell Simmons to organize rappers such as Puffy, Jay-Z and Memphis Bleek to protest the unjust laws that disproportionately imprison Blacks and Latinos for non-violent offenses. Hip-hop music both "conscious" and "commercial" is used to empower and educate other young people.
This generation has also produced a mighty force of justice fighters for non-traditional issues in non-traditional ways. Caushun, the first openly gay rapper, courageously rhymes about his sexuality. HIV/AIDS is the number-one killer among certain demographics in the Black and Latino community. In the world, it is the modern-day plague. AIDS specialists cite homophobia as one of the factors involved in the epidemic and Caushun`s sexual openness is revolutionary in these times.
Highlighting the positive actions of the hip-hop generation is in no way an attempt to portray us as being perfect. There is room for improvement, and contradictions do exist in our movement. It's important to understand that the act of recognizing these contradictions in a non-judgmental way is freeing, and an analysis of this contradiction is progressive and political. The goal for the hip-hop and the Sit-In generation, whose legacy we do uphold, should be respectful discussions, outside of the courtrooms, because we have much to learn from each other. And as the old cliché goes, united we stand and divided we fall.

text: Guys the motor I just intalled runs great, only problem is I had a part break on me, and everywhere says this part is "obselete". Basically on my motor the shift and throttle cables sit in a metal bracket on the motor, then a plastic clamp folds over top of the cable to secure it. One of the tabs broke off and it will not secure the shift cable, so I have it secured with a pipe clamp. I believe the part number is 6R3-42851-00-00. I found it on the bottom cowling schematics for my motor. http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Outboard/1993/P150TLRR/BOTTOM COWLING/parts.html Motor is a 1993 Yamaha Pro V 150, Model #p150TLRR. Didnt know if Bubba or someone else new where I could get my hands on one. I beleive its #11 on the schematics diagram. Thanks all

Question for Tech-Savvy Readers
I tried to get "fancy" by adding the lovely peacock logo that Emma B designed, but apparently it has fucked up our RSS feed. This is probably because I added it to the section called 'title' or 'header' or something. There's now also a bit of gibberish code at the top of the screen, indicating a problem.
I tried to go back into Blogger to get rid of the logo, but it's no longer in the code. Blogger somehow incorporated it into the basic code of the site. Even when I changed to a different default template, the logo (and RSS problem) persisted.
Anybody have any tips about how to get further into the code?
Also, if anybody has a good template or site with templates that they can suggest, we're looking to move beyond the Blogger preset template. We like the pink, but it's sort of a newbie faux pas to use a Blogger preset.
Thanks in advance...

World Water Day (WWD): In 1993, the United Nations General Assembly designated March 22 as the World Water Day. The WWD is coordinated by UN-water in collaboration with governments and partners. The main aim of the observance is to tackle the water crisis all over the world.
Today, 1.8 billion people use a source of drinking water contaminated with faeces, putting them at risk of contracting cholera, dysentery, typhoid and polio.
The Sustainable Development Goals, launched in 2015, include a target to ensure everyone has access to safe water by 2030, making water a key issue in the fight to eradicate extreme poverty.
The theme for this year is – #wastewater. The UN has urged everyone to minimise the wastage of water this year. The international body has also encouraged the re-use and recycle of waste water to improve the water cycle for each and every living being.

Bush Signs Youth Suicide Prevention Law, Dozens of Elderly Kill Themselves in Protest
(AP) President Bush on Thursday signed into law a bill authorizing $82 million in grants aimed at preventing suicide among young people.
But the AARP and other lobbyists for the elderly, like UDW (United Denture Wearers) and IncOFAM (Incontinent Old Fogies of America) claim that the law discriminates against Americans who are not young. In Washington D.C. Friday, elderly from across the nation shuffled in slippers, hobbled-along with walkers, rode Rascals, and dangerously catapulted oversized Bonnevilles through crowded markets and the wrong way down one-way streets to attend a protest rally sponsored by IncOFAM.
"We're old, damnit," railed one old Vermont geezer, "and we deserve some of that grant money!"
An octegenarian from Wyoming exclaimed, "Those young suicidal whipper-snappers don't know what to do with 82 million dollars. They'll just spend it on dungarees and rock-a-billy music."
Representatives from IncOFAM have proposed legislation to provide an equitable $82 million in grants to delay suicide among the elderly. Their proposal states that the money will be used to "buy RVs so we can see America one last time before the Grim Reaper comes for us" and "for plane tickets to tapings of the Price Is Right."
