Youth Dialogue on Civic Engagement and Peacemaking in your Community
Ljubljana, Slovenia, Thursday, October 22, 2009
How are you this afternoon?
It is such a pleasure for me to join you at my first Youth Dialogue in Ljubljana.
I had planned to visit Slovenia last year during a series of State visits in Central Europe; however, circumstances were such that I had to return to Canada to resolve a constitutional crisis.
Although I only stayed for a few hours, I had the privilege of meeting with President Türk, enough time to engage in an at-length discussion with him.
Let me tell you also that I was so captivated by your alpine country that I felt compelled to return to discover more and, of course, to meet with the women, men and youth of Slovenia.
Yes, the youth of Slovenia, your perspective is important.
As governor general and commander-in-chief of Canada, carrying out the duties of head of state, I often undertake State and official visits overseas.
Through these journeys abroad, I seek to pursue a form of diplomacy that places people-to-people relations at the heart of international affairs.
I believe that this approach, which I like to call "diplomacy on a human scale," is paramount in this time of almost unprecedented economic turmoil, which requires that we embrace a more compassionate and human form of foreign relations.
That we pursue new and more effective modes of international cooperation within a global ethic of sharing and solidarity.
And that we transcend the boundaries of ethnicity and nationality in favour of a more universal understanding of our responsibilities as citizens of our respective countries and as citizens of the world.
Yes the stakes are high.
An increase in global hunger is threatening the lives of millions of people around the world.
Climate change is putting in peril our very survival as a species.
Ethnic, linguistic, and religious extremism continues to fan the flames of hatred, armed conflict and terror.
Even in this part of the world, the spectre of violence and hatred continues to raise its ugly head, requiring sustained vigilance against all forms of prejudice and discrimination.
Like much of South Eastern Europe, Canada is home to several ethnic, religious and cultural groups.
Over the last four hundred years, our history has been shaped by the fruitful encounters of different civilizations and peoples.
This began when the indigenous populations encountered and intermixed with European settlers.
Soon, dozens of Africans, who were forcibly transported there as slaves, intermarried with the European and indigenous populations.
The mingling of peoples was further enriched by successive waves of immigrants and refugees hailing from every corner of the globe.
From these encounters were born our unique cultural and historical experience, whose deep diversity constitutes the very essence of the Canadian people.
It was not easy.
We had to learn how to live together in relative harmony.
Injustices committed against the indigenous peoples, the enslavement of Africans, the expulsion of French settlers, discrimination against immigrants from various parts of the world, and other social challenges posed direct threatened to social cohesion.
Yet in the end, we discovered that you cannot build a nation on division or hatred.
Canada had to be built on the premise that national unity can only emerge once diversity is recognized and embraced.
For respectful dialogue between diverse citizens can empower a people to see beyond its differences and embrace the values and aspirations it has in common.
It can also help to avoid the pitfalls of sectarianism, fascism, and racism, out of which wars and genocides are often conceived.
I have always said that conflicts of any kind are the outcome of conversations that have never taken place, and encounters that have been transpired.
Just look at the Canadian delegation accompanying me.
Courtney Bragg, Patsy George, Stéphanie Lapointe, Chris McDonald, Nelofer Pazira, Louise Sicuro, Kevin Walker, please stand.
In true Canadian fashion, they are engaged citizens, whose work embodies the very spirit of compassion, solidarity and openness that the world is now craving.
Today, these representatives from various segments of civil society will share with you their perspectives on the vital role of youth engagement.
Because countless young people around the globe are using the arts, new information technologies, and sport, to articulate new and more inclusive approaches to bringing social change both locally and globally.
I find their vision and determination both inspiring and indispensable.
It is thus to celebrate the positive effects of youth engagement that I have convened this Youth Dialogue.
I am also anxious to learn about your perspectives on diversity, civic participation, and related issue in Slovenia.
Do Slovene youth confront civic apathy?
If so, how are you working to counteract indifference among young people?
What steps are being taken to promote intercultural exchanges among youth?
Before I close, I am pleased to let you know that today, the Government of Canada signed a Youth Mobility Agreement with the Government of Slovenia.
The historic agreement will provide greater opportunities for exchanges between young Canadians and Slovenes, further strengthening the bonds of friendship that unite out two great nations.
In that spirit of reciprocity, I would like to thank you for having me, and I encourage us to make this unique moment special.
Now enough of me: let us begin our conversation.

If you're a country fan or someone living in a 200 mile radius of Pigeon Forge, Tenn., you've heard about Dollywood. It's the theme park owned by Dolly Parton that promises lots of fun for the whole family. But is it really anything more than a simple amusement park? And would someone who isn't toting around a van-full of toddlers really going to enjoy the experience?
Over the 4th of July holiday weekend, I traveled from Nashville to find out for myself. Once you make it through the long drive that sweeps past flea markets, all-you-can-eat buffets and antique stores, you're greeted by a giant butterfly soaring behind letters spelling out "DOLLYWOOD." You have arrived.
To get the full experience, I stayed at Dolly's DreamMore Resort. Although this luxury hotel could have easily gone cheesy and over-the-top, the accommodations were incredibly homey. White rocking chairs and ladies clad in frilly pink dresses with free cups of lemonade greet you on arrival. The interior is much like Dolly herself — classy, but politely demands your attention. With multiple restaurants, inviting pools and plenty of Parton memorabilia, there's a little something for everyone. One of the biggest reasons I loved staying at the resort was the ability to hop on an old school trolley to get to the park within 10 minutes.
I hadn't been to Dollywood since I was 8 or 9 years old, where I got a pretty rad photo alongside Elvis (sadly, I couldn't find the image to share, but you can imagine). Back then, getting the chance to eat a bag of cotton candy would have been enough to earn a 5-star rating from me. But this time, I was a little more hesitant. It had been 20 years (!) since I had set foot in the park, and a lot had changed in that time.
In order to earn more visitors and please yearly passholders, Parton has made an effort to make sure new rides are constantly being introduced. Although I didn't ride it, (partially because it was down for maintenance and partially because I am a big scaredy cat), the park is now home to the fastest wooden roller coaster ever.
For me, the biggest challenge of enjoying a theme park trip is being relaxed enough to feel like a kid again while being surrounded by screaming children. I loved all of the rides, but the real appeal for me was just how spread out the park was. Even on a holiday weekend, the park was never packed and there was plenty to do. That freedom to roam without stressing over which line to get in made it a lot easier to just enjoy the day.
I was surprised at the variety of stores and attractions inside the park. Sure, there's a store where you can get a neon t-shirt with Dolly on it (yes, I bought it), but there are also many handmade products available for purchase. A glassblower, ironworker and soap maker are on hand to show you how things were made back in the olden days. There's even a protected eagle habitat smack dab in the middle of the park, which was a nice place to stop and soak up my surroundings.
But the best part about Dollywood is all the personal touches. There's an area of the park that's dedicated to her incredible career. There's a museum that features a hologram version of Parton that morphs into a butterfly after she sings "I Will Always Love You." Along with a seemingly endless stream of memorabilia, the walls are covered with televisions show clips of her TV and film appearances. Outside, her old tour bus is set up for you to explore.
The little things struck me the most. In a small garden area, there are metal signs that have been added over the years that pay tribute to friends that have passed on. Although they are slightly hidden in a pathway to some hidden restrooms, the plaque that reads "IN MEMORY OF TAMMY WYNETTE" serves as a sudden reminder of how many of her country comrades are now gone.
There are at least 20 of these signs, memorializing Grandpa Jones, Ray Price and others, that most tourists probably walk right by without a thought. Even Dolly's museum is more of a tribute to others than herself. Every wall praises someone who helped in her career, whether it be her own father or Carol Burnett.
Although many may see Dollywood as a place to spend a holiday with the kids, it's also meant to create a legacy. Parton started the whole thing as a way to revitalize and invest in her hometown and county. One of the biggest things I noticed was how friendly and cheerful every employee was, from the drivers to the hot dog vendors. Many of them praised her efforts to give back to her workers through park perks for employees and their families.
If you want a sign of how important Dollywood is to Parton, head to the bottom floor of the DreamMore Resort and look for a wooden box enclosed in glass. Inside, she has placed a sheet of lyrics that will be her "last song," revealed on her 100th birthday. That's the kind of thing you might think would end up in the Country Music Hall of Fame. But Dolly has opted to keep it in a place where fans can view it whenever they want (you don't have to be a guest at the resort to give it a tour).
For me, all of these things culminated into an experience that actually did make me feel like a kid again. And along with that, I got the chance to dive a little deeper into who Parton really is and where she came from.
If you're a die-hard Dolly fan, or just love a good roller coaster, this is a surprising vacation spot you shouldn't overlook. And yes, I'm already planning my return trip.

I have just finished reading this, and found it very well written and what I felt as a "handbook for others on my life" in many places. I had borrowed it from the library but was taking so many photos of so many pages I have bought my own copy!
Has anyone else read this book? It really does seem to highlight how difficult it can be to spot ASD in females and just how well we cover it all up to the outside onlookers while often falling apart in various ways out of sight or on the inside.
It really does cover every major aspect of life from birth to old age and the main issues in each stage of life.
Basically I'd recommend it as a good book to read to help self understanding or to suggest another person reads to get a clearer picture of how your life experience may be different to theirs.
Sarah Hendrickx also has some excellent YouTube videos which I found helpful but be warned... it's difficult to stop watching all the related ones in the sequence below hers!
Thanks! I consider myself forewarned and will make sure I have a large mug of tea with me :-)

The strong and gentle beauty of some rows of trees of the Italian countryside have inspired in me a sense of calm, serenity and infinity, that I like to share with you.
Alberto Bresciani is an italian hobbyist photographer, who likes to call himself a "Sunday morning photographer". He takes almost all the photos for a few hours from dawn, because then he must rush home to care his wonderful family.

On Oct 1st, 2011 my friend Gilani Taylor was in a horrible accident which left the aspiring R&B Singer severely burned over 95% of her body and her 9 year old daughter dead. Since the accident Lani has been in USC Burn Center, with family holding constant vigil at her bedside. Through faith and faith alone this family has managed to overcome obstacles most of us cannot even imagine...like burying their 9 Jayla without the presence of her mother.
Gilani is still fighting daily for her life, and as she does that her medical bills continue to rise. When this remarkable woman makes it through this ordeal(which I have FULL FAITH will HAPPEN) she will continue to have battles and medical bills to which I can only hope this fundraiser helps. As well as monatay support I ask that eveyone who knows this story says a prayer for Gilani and her family, they are a family in need of as many prayes as they can get. Thank YOU!
For more infomation please see the following news article or just do a web search for Gilani or Jayla Taylor

So, don't you love it when wingnuts make absolute asses out of themselves by overhyping something? Usually it is the terrsts, or wmd, or yellowcake, or other such nonsense.
In the hours and days leading up to the VP debate the entire right were breathing into paper bags over Gwen Ifill. She wrote some book. She can't possibly be unbiased. More gotcha journalism coming.
How stupid do these people look this morning?

Studies have shown that people who take anti-inflammatory painkillers have a small but significant increase in the risk of developing a heart attack or stroke . Although it can occur in anybody, the risk is mainly in people already known to have cardiovascular problems such as angina or peripheral arterial disease , and in the elderly. Perhaps the highest risk is in people who have previously had a heart attack. For example, one research study looked at people who had previously had a heart attack. The results showed a marked increase in the rate of a second heart attack in people who were taking an anti-inflammatory compared to those who were not.
NSAIDs have anti-inflammatory (reduce inflammation), analgesic (relieve pain) and antipyretic (lower temperature) effects. Although different NSAIDs have different structures, they all work by blocking cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. There are two main types of COX enzymes: COX-1 and COX-2. Both types produce prostaglandins; however, the main function of COX-1 enzymes is to produce baseline levels of prostaglandins that activate platelets and protect the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, whereas COX-2 enzymes are responsible for releasing prostaglandins after infection or injury. Prostaglandins have a number of different effects, one of which is to regulate inflammation. Most NSAIDs inhibit both enzymes, although a few are available that mainly inhibit COX-2. The pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects of NSAIDs are mainly due to inhibition of COX-2, and their unwanted side effects are largely due to inhibition of COX-1.
In studies lasting 6 to 12 weeks, topical diclofenac and topical ketoprofen were significantly more effective than carrier for reducing pain; about 60% of participants had much reduced pain. With topical diclofenac, the NNT for clinical success in six trials (2343 participants) was (95% confidence interval ( CI ) to 16) (moderate quality evidence). With topical ketoprofen, the NNT for clinical success in four trials (2573 participants) was ( to ) (moderate quality evidence). There was too little information for analysis of other individual topical NSAIDs compared with carrier. Few trials compared a topical NSAID to an oral NSAID , but overall they showed similar efficacy (low quality evidence). These efficacy results were almost completely derived from people with knee osteoarthritis.

NOVEMBER 4, 2013 - Senior international health majors Estefania Konarek (NHS'14) and Stephanie Muci (NHS'14) are conducting research in Brazil this semester as part of the Department of International Health's practical experience abroad program.
The undergraduates are working at FIOCRUZ, a scientific institution in Rio de Janeiro. Konarek is analyzing epidemiological data for an HIV/AIDS research project, and Muci is studying how young adults use the Internet to seek health information.
Both say they are enjoying the experience. "With my internship, I've gotten to interact with so many great people, especially the doctors and nurses that really care about their patients and the community," says Muci.
HIV/AIDS Research
"My knowledge of [Brazil's health care system] has broadened by interacting and forming bonds with physicians, researchers, health workers, and community members at FIOCRUZ," adds Konarek.
She is working on an epidemiological research project that looks at the timing of diagnosis of the population living with HIV/AIDS who utilize a local health center.
"My research will be focused on analyzing late presentation in HIV/AIDS diagnosis and associating it with socio-demographic factors of the population," Konarek says. "Brazil offers comprehensive and free anti-retroviral treatment, and many lives could be prolonged if those diagnosed with HIV are detected at the earlier stages of the viral infection."
Internet Usage
At the same time, Muci is planning to survey youth, ages 18-25, to understand their Internet behavior related to health topics.
"I am conducting research on the health-seeking behavior of young adults on the Internet," she says. "A recent study was released that showed that a majority of Brazilians use the Internet – both the rich and the poor."
Through the study, she hopes to determine whether they use the Internet to search for health topics, how they perceive the information they find, and what motivates them to look for it in the first place.
'Everything Just Makes Sense'
Konarek and Muci say they feel well prepared for the experience thanks to their coursework and professors back at Georgetown.
"All of our classes and all of the knowledge just really comes together during this experience abroad," Muci says. "Everything just makes sense now, and I know why I needed to learn what I've learned."
Konarek points to interdisciplinary classes in health economics, health systems, demography, epidemiology, and microbiology.
"The classes and opportunities available are countless and enriching," she says. "The quality of teaching and professors with extensive international experience make this major a unique one."
Active Students
The students have been very active during their time at Georgetown. Muci served as a peer mentor program chair for the Georgetown Scholarship Program and participated in Rangila – the South Asian Society's annual dance festival. She is also a member of Georgetown's chapter of the American Public Health Association and works with Globemed, a non-profit that addresses health disparities.
"I love Georgetown and its endless opportunities," she says. "It has given me so many great memories and has helped pave the way for my success. However, this semester abroad has made me realize just how much I miss the Hilltop, so I can't even begin to think of how I will feel after graduation."
Konarek has been involved with the organization Learning Enterprises, through which she has traveled to Poland and Thailand to teach English-based classes in the summer. She has interned at the Spanish Catholic Center, worked with the university's Center for Intercultural Education and Development, and helped teach literacy skills to Latino children through the AmeriCorps Jumpstart program.
"Georgetown has provided me with opportunities I would have never encountered elsewhere," she says. "I can't describe how grateful I am for undertaking my undergraduate studies in this prestigious university. I am surely living a dream, especially now that I am working with FIOCRUZ in Brazil."

Surely, when this despotic and desolate night is at last bled dry, a red dawn will greet us to allay our battle aches and breathe the air back into our children's lungs so that they may laugh again.
But still that night is long, itself windswept of human solidarity — how will we know our comrades as we stagger through the abyss?
Under the shudders of freedom torn apart by its supercilious apathy for those who needed it but were spurned and now have few means to wrest it from the gears of its own machine, we must divest from the notion of diversity as merely a political statement. It is a tool for liberation. Our movement is strongest when we are inclusive, and we are safest when we aren't all out there doing the same damn secret handshake.
All codes seem abstruse and inelegant at first glance — you couldn't have known from the start that searching for a square dancing partner in San Francisco would evolve into a complex nonverbal sexual lexicon. Using french fries for clandestine epicurean communique with other closet Marxists tastes good, supports your local burger chains, and gives you a revolutionary task that is slightly more tangible than "talk incessantly about all the Nazis you're going to kill when you've never actually held a gun."
The worker must have bread, but she must also have french fries, too.
1. Guacamole
Ascetism has a place in resistance — to resist the weapons of artificial scarcity, we must limit our capacity to compete within our communities for commodities. That said: you understand that destroying all the finery we confiscate from our oppressors could serve only to further alienate workers from the benefits of their labor. Nothing's too good for the working class!
Life after the revolution probably won't involve workers tending to their work in redistributed couture, sipping champagne from communal taps, with everyone retiring for a bit in the afternoon to jerk off and take a nap nestled in the silk sheets of their state-issued canopy bed — but there's no reason they couldn't or shouldn't. You don't mind paying extra for guacamole because you know it's not the fault of the avocado, or the worker, and soon, you won't have to pay extra for anything again.
2. Aioli
At a point, education is anathema to class aspiration. The worker always knows when their denigration is the spectacle — a desire to rise above your station leaves you open to be made an asshole in ways you don't even possess the language to quantify. You know how to pronounce "aioli" and you know it sounds classier than getting mayo on your burger, but if you called that flavored mayonnaise "aioli" to a purist, or someone from whose culture aioli actually comes from, the glint of glib pity in their eyes would haunt the awkward silence of every industry happy hour.
Likewise: understandable that you may want to embrace the teachings and policies of famous Marxists as a way to shore up your bonafides within your local socialist canvassing cadre — but this doesn't carry socialist thought into the modern age. It just serves to redefine human rights as flexible depending whether the person purging you has the right analysis of economics. Maybe leftists aren't inherently weak-willed and self-involved in sectarian struggle of purity, but the men we revere were.
Purge your idols. Just call it "chipotle apricot mayo".
3. Gravy
Since I published my last article on this very specific praxis, I have been asked by many "What does it mean if I don't dip my french fries in anything?"
To this I reply "Well, are you a Marxist?"
And the answer is typically no — which I assume to be a reflection of American aversions to the baggage that comes with outright identify as a non-capitalist. Not that everyone I know is secretly a communist, but that even those whose ideals line up perfectly with socialism still want, for many practical reasons, for those desires to fit within a neoliberal orthodoxy. It sucks. I imagine that kind of denial is distressing in its own way.
What is not distressing, however, is making use of the drippings from a scrumptious roast or turkey or mushroom to dip your french fries in. If guacamole is re-purposing the factory to make fancy coats for all the workers, gravy is dismantling the factory so that its parts are housed in various people's houses, so that people can make the coats themselves and distribute them among the community. It's a more DIY automated luxury communism.
4. Ranch
There is a line in Gladiator, where Senator Gracchus says "I don't pretend to be a man of the people. But I do try to be a man for the people."
I think about this in the context of my activism a lot — not because I see myself as some temporarily embarrassed Patrician looking down at the plebes in my attempts to liberate them, but because I try to be mindful of pluralities. The oppressed are not a monolith, and our insistence as socialists to quantify oppression as a neat hierarchy with clearly defined parameters has deprived us of immeasurable political strength.
I grew up in a part of America where dipping slices of pizza into ranch was normal, but I didn't know about dipping pickles into ranch until I was an adult. And someone who likes it with chicken tenders may not be accustomed to the practice of putting it on pretzels, etc.
Ranch dressing is really just buttermilk and seasoning; it's often made with yogurt our sour cream, and it's hard to imagine the people who dry heave at ranch dressing performing similar histrionics to someone eating a little cup of yogurt. Or even bleu cheese dressing.
The disgust towards ranch can be chalked up, I think, to its perceived ubiquity as a bland slop for the unwashed masses, an illusion brought on by a multitude of cultural norms colliding and coalescing.
Not everyone puts ranch on everything, but a lot of people put ranch on something. To that end, we may not be "of the people" but we can be, in our acceptance of other people's habits and not feigning a heart attack at the sight of a dietary custom beyond our norm, be "for the people".
Is that a metaphor for diversity of tactics? It could be. It also couldn't be.
5. Au Jus
This rejects all french fry orthodoxy — it's not creamy, sweet, or even a sauce. And it doesn't bring out the texture or flavor of your fry, it makes it soggy! It defies even the central conceit of the french fry.
Our struggle is comprised of such wanton contradiction. Antifa represents a solidarity between Marxists and anarchists, forces at times in direct opposition to each other, again united in the defeat of fascism. Over the course of this resistance, people on all sides will try to undermine that unity in various ways, with hot takes and misinformation.
But we must hold tight. We have to hold space for one another and support each other in whatever ways we can, not despite our disparate ideologies but in spite of them.
When the people are faced with starvation, soggy beef-saturated fries must have their place at the table.

Buying homeowners insurance can be a confusing process, and it is all too easy for mistakes to be made. Here is a quick look at 5 of the most common mistakes made when selecting homeowners insurance and what you can do to avoid them, brought to you by the insurance experts at Tri-Star Insurance.
1. Believing the Entire Property Is Insured
Homeowners insurance in San Diego is designed to cover the structure of the home and some of the possessions inside. Many people make the mistake of choosing a policy and not realizing it only covers the home and its contents. The land the home is on, however, is not covered.
2. Failing to Identify the Correct Occupancy
Anyone who is renting out their home, renting another building on their property, or currently not living in that particular home will need much different coverage than a single-family residence would. Homeowners must tell their insurance provider exactly how the property is being used and who will be living there so the appropriate policy can be assigned.
3. Assuming All Natural Disasters Are Covered
Homeowners insurance is your first line of defense against most accidents and injuries, but very few basic policies cover natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes. Homes that could be damaged by natural disasters will require an additional insurance rider.
4. Not Choosing the Replacement Cost Option
Many people opt for actual cash value policies instead of replacement cost policies simply because the premiums are lower. If an accident does occur, those with an actual cash value policy might receive only a fraction of what they need to replace their home or repair any damage, whereas a replacement cost policy can reimburse you for 100 percent of the costs.
5. Purchasing the Cheapest Policy
Just as with any other financial product, purchasing the cheapest policy could be a mistake. Homeowners should consider variables such as deductibles, monthly premiums, and the reputation of the insurance provider before making a decision.
The agents at American Tri-Star Insurance can guide you through the process of purchasing home insurance that best suits your needs to ensure you don't make any hasty mistakes. We also offer a variety of other insurance services. For free San Diego auto insurance quotes or information on commercial, health, motorcycle, and RV insurance, call one of our representatives at 619-272-2100.

I'm only new to this blogging game, and look to other more experienced bloggers for tips and tricks.
I'm going to admit I read Perez Hilton to see all the celeb gossip, to laugh at their petty mistakes and fashion errors and sometimes there are a few good stories. But I am just so sick of him being so goddam mean and one-sided.
I don't think he claims to be a journalist so there is no need for a balanced report but his posts almost cross the line of bullying, it's like he has no soul.
His attack on Lindsay Lohan or 'Lindsanity' as he calls her is evil! And why does he care so much whether Lily Allen comes out of retirement or not?!
And then there is his 'Wifey' or Lady Gaga as she is more formerly known. He claims to have 'discovered' her and supports her career with a lot of gusto. But to the point where everything she says, does, wears or sings is perfection it's getting boring and fast.
The latest article is Gagaloo Breaks World Chart Record, with her latest single Alejandro going to number 9 in the World Chart it means that she has had 7 worldwide hits from her album The Fame Monster, surpassing Michael Jackson's 6 from his Thriller album.
Yeah congrats Gaga, but releasing the same album twice and then a few remix tracks is not an achievement. What would be something to take notice of is if she took a break from tiring herself out touring, and put together a second album of fresh original tracks.
Anybody who's anybody can have success with their initial album, what makes it an achievement is if the follow up is something her fans didn't expect, something new and fresh because I am so BORED of hearing the same music over and over and over and over and over and over again.
It's not as if I haven't tried to get away from it listening to my own music, but put the radio on to hear the charts and there she is every other song.
And what I hate even more as I mentioned on my previous post Christina is Herself is how much everyone else is now 'Gaga-esque', and it's bloody Perez's fault for starting it. I hope he gets bought out
Well that's just my opinion but I'm sick to my back teeth of it.
Heeeelllllloooo is there anybody else out there apart from Stefani Germanotta??

WASHINGTON – The newly announced fiduciary rule could remake the planning industry, ushering in the most successful, ambitious regulatory effort in more than 40 years.
"These new rules will level the playing field so that retirement advisors will compete based on the quality of advice they give," Jeff Zients, director of the National Economic Council, told reporters.
He warned that powerful forces remain arrayed against the rule. In one of many steps likely to be seen as a concession to the industry in the finalized rule, advisors will have until Jan. 1, 2018, to fully comply with its many provisions. This raises the prospect that a Republican president could "do away with" the Department of Labor rule, says Ron Rhoades, a former chairman-elect of NAPFA, who reacted with dismay to the extended deadline.
However, if it survives intact into the next administration, it will send ripples throughout almost every sector within the advisory industry. Some segments will be stronger than others.
The rule could be a "tipping point" for many advisors to transition all their accounts – not just their retirement ones – to fee-based accounts from commission-bearing ones, Rhoades says.
Although a change made to the finalized rule will allow the continued sale of many products that could have faced heavy restrictions – such as equity-indexed annuities and nontraded REITs – many could still vanish over time if they cannot be defended as serving a client's best interest, says Ric Edelman, founder of Edelman Financial, which manages $15 billion in client assets.
There may be other dramatic changes afoot, as well.
"This could be the biggest thing since May Day," Edelman says, referring to May 1, 1975, when the SEC deregulated the brokerage industry. That opened the door for the emergence of discount brokerages, notably Charles Schwab.
Skip Schweiss, head of TD Ameritrade's Institutional Retirement Plan Services, says there's some hyperbole in Edelman's estimation of the rule's impact, but not much.
The May Day comparison "is not off base," Schweiss says. "There is a set of thinking in the industry that very, very slowly and gradually we are moving toward a better world for consumers. The DoL rule would push that along."
Many changes have already taken place in advance of the rule. Among them:
- Financial services giant American International Group announced it would sell its independent broker-dealer, AIG Advisor Group. Under the rule, the B-D would be better run by "someone independent of us," AIG CEO Peter Hancock told reporters at the time.
- Schwab took its ETF wrap portfolio platform, for which it had been charging 90 basis points, and offered it for free last month as part of its digital advice offering, Schwab Intelligent Portfolios. This was a "radical" step that indicated Schwab intends to play in an ultralow commission environment, says Alois Pirker, research director for consulting firm Aité Group. It's a calculated risk that, while marketing the robo platform to new investors, assets will drift there from more expensive options, he says.
- LPL said in March it would slash prices up to 30% on some of its model investment portfolios. This move by the country's largest IBD could force smaller B-Ds that can afford to do so to follow suit – or perhaps force some out of business.
- Ladenburg Thalmann, one of the country's biggest independent broker-dealer networks, launched a self-service portfolio account with a $500 investment minimum.
- Two third-party broker-dealers, CUSO Financial Services and Infinex Financial Group, announced plans to not only lower minimums and adjust pricing on advisory accounts, but to partner with digital advice providers.
These changes – price cuts, the elimination of commissions and a separation between product manufacturers and brokers – are some of the very ones that investor advocates have been seeking for years.
LPL's price drops position the company for stronger growth and do not amount to any capitulation on the company's part, an LPL spokesman has said.
"LPL is waving the white flag," Edelman counters. "They are acknowledging that their business practices will not withstand the regulations. And LPL is one of the good ones. Look at these other firms that sell only limited liquidity, commission-based products. You are going to see every brokerage firm doing something similar to what LPL is doing."
Various industry groups, most of whose members charge commissions, have fought the increased regulation strenuously. Some may make good on their threats to sue to stop the rule's implementation, Jim Pasztor, vice president of academic affairs for the College for Financial Planning, writes in a recent report.
One of the rule's critics said it shouldn't be described as a fiduciary regulation at all. Don Trone, a longtime fiduciary advocate who runs consulting firm 3ethos, made the assertion during his testimony before the Labor Department over the summer. The regulation is composed of "punitive rules that are going to make it easier for bad advisers to hide behind the complexity of the rules, and make it harder for honest advisers to provide their services," Trone said.
The rule is a key move by the Obama administration as it enters its waning days. The president chose to push this fundamental shift through the Labor Department instead of waiting for the SEC, which is governed by commissioners from warring political parties, or from industry watchdog FINRA, which has been criticized for being run by many of the key players in the industry that it regulates.
"The Labor Department has one master," says Mark Hurley, CEO of advisory firm financier Fiduciary Network. "That's the administration."
Under current securities law, many brokers may omit or obscure the impact of commissions or fees that clients pay to purchase investment products, including mutual funds, REITs and annuities. In a steady stream of arbitration cases and lawsuits, aggrieved clients have claimed they have had no idea how much of their savings their brokers had pocketed from undisclosed commissions and fees.
Nationwide, Americans lose about $17 billion a year to conflicted financial advice in their retirement accounts, according to a White House Council of Economic Advisors report in 2015. Retirement savings, including 401(k)s and IRAs, make up about 50% of all publicly traded assets, according to Rhoades, who heads the financial planning department at Western Kentucky University.
The White House on Tuesday offered a generalized example of how conflicted advice can affect a middle class saver.
"If a worker has $100,000 in retirement savings at age 45, without conflicted advice it would grow to an estimated $216,000 by age 65, adjusted for inflation," the statement says, "but if she receives conflicted advice it would grow to $179,000 – a loss of $37,000, or 17%."
This new regulatory step is a triumph of small over large, many say, and traces its roots to a slow-building mutiny that began mostly in the 1980s.
Bit by bit, small advisors began breaking away from large financial firms. These RIAs popularized the concept of unconflicted financial advice and prompted many brokers to mimic them by advertising their services as if they, too, were fiduciaries, says Hurley of Fiduciary Network.
"These are guys who basically hung out a shingle and [clients] showed up on their doorstep," he says, without the help of corporate marketing or public relations budgets.
By the end of 2015, RIAs had captured about 14.6% of the $19.2 trillion in client assets managed by both RIAs and broker-dealers, according to Aité Group.
Now all advisors may have to live up to their hype.
"What [RIAs] offer is what clients truly want," Hurley says. "They want the broker to be 100% on their side."
Labor Secretary Tom Perez says he thinks that's where most advisors want to be, as well.
The rule "is not about bad people doing bad things. I honestly believe that the vast majority of those providing advice are trying to do the right thing," Perez said, but "they are operating in a structurally flawed system."

UPDATE 2:10 p.m.
Twenty-four people were arrested in San Luis Obispo on St. Patrick's Day after police vowed to crack down on alcohol-related violations.
Twenty people were arrested for being drunk in public, two for driving under the influence, one for assault and one for a drug offense.
In addition, seven people received citations for smoking, four for urinating in public and 11 for possessing an open container of alcohol in a public place.
Those citations will cost offenders a minimum of $700 because St. Patrick's Day is included in the city's safety enhancement zone ordinance, which allows the San Luis Obispo Police Department to double fines. Second offenders will pay $1,000.
A maximum deployment of police officers began at 6 a.m. and continued through the night. Last year, 29 people were arrested, mostly for public intoxication.
Original story:
Eight St. Patrick's Day revelers have been arrested for alcohol-related offenses so far Thursday by San Luis Obispo police, according to Capt. Tom DePriest.
A maximum deployment of police officers began at 6 a.m. and will continue through the night as the police department cracks down on what it says is a growing public nuisance of alcohol-related problems.
People formed lines at many downtown bars early this morning, and a sea of green has filled streets most the early afternoon as people celebrate.

You must take control of your mind calm/settle down, put things into perspective and start prioritizing. You have the intention and the information, wanting to get the information out of your brain, but you are just too overwhelmed with a bunch of ideas and just cant seem to get started.
You cannot do it all in one day so therefore you have no alternative but to start organizing yourself, your ideas about your passion, and start writing.
A good place to start organizing and getting your thoughts and ideas together is by getting yourself this book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" that has helped thousands of people around the world written by "Stephen R. Covey."
You should approach it from this perspective, that you cannot get it done without you starting somewhere, and that is the only option you have. You must approaching the concept with the attitude by keeping in mind the concept that you want to be successful and not just to make money or to create quality content and placing it on a blog because soon you will run out of ideas.
Condition your mind and be ready for success. It means taking control of your mind with a purpose in mind. You should start invoking your assertiveness, with a level of consciousness.
The terminology "living in denial" seems offensive and as a result people try to dismiss the thought and concepts and try to ignore it. This is the very hazard that's blocking you from starting to present, arrange, organize, and placing your ideas on paper. You must confront and face the situation, accepting the facts that this is your road map to success.
I am inviting your comment on the topic as to whether or not a blogger should develop his/her mindset to maintain consistency, and in order to achieve success

When Randy Rutkai was 12, he built a working four-person hovercraft from a design he found in a Popular Mechanics magazine. It took him two years to complete.
Fast forward to today and the 46-year-old Denver resident is spreading the word about his latest venture: outdoor misting systems. Building on an idea widely used in his home state of California and throughout the west, he started Climate Control Systems of the Carolinas in the spring of 2009.
To spread the word about his new offering, he's donating two systems to Victory Junction Gang Camp, a camp for terminally and chronically ill children near Greensboro. One will be installed around the camp's mini-golf course, the other will be built around its nature tower, which houses the zip line.
"I hate to see people suffer," Rutkai said. "When I sat down and watched a 20-minute video about what they do at the camp, and I saw the kids dripping with sweat, I knew I had to do something."
In initial meetings, Victory Junction representatives told Rutkai that by the time kids got to the third hole of the miniature golf course, they were melting.
"After I told them we'd donate two systems, their eyes lit up," he said.
Rutkai moved to Denver 13 years ago, with his wife and two kids. He's also a general contractor, and his irrigation, illumination and landscape company, ExecuGreens, has operated in the area for more than 10 years.
The pressures of a successful sales career with a national corporation, and being away from his family for days at a time, pushed him to start his own business.
"I was just waiting for the technology to adapt for use in areas of high humidity," he said.
Using another company's patented nozzle, the system uses flash evaporation technology to lower outdoor temperatures by 15 to 20 degrees, Rutkai said. It also minimizes odors, allergens and insects.
"We adapt our programming to the specific needs of each child we serve," said camp co-founder Pattie Petty. "This allows us to help these amazing children do things they never dreamed possible. The new misting systems will help us continue to meet those special needs, and in return, create the once-in-a-lifetime experience."
The systems at the camp, estimated at $12,000, will be completed by June, when summer is nearing its hottest. Residential systems can be installed around pools, decks, patios or any outdoor area, including boats. Residential systems take less than two weeks to install, and range from $600 to $2,000. During times of drought, supply tanks will be filled for free by the installer.
The donation will keep campers cool for years.
"They donated misting systems to two program areas that are affected by hot weather," said LeKeshia Franklin, Victory Junction development coordinator, who has worked with CCS on this project for the last year. "They will bring much-needed comfort to the campers. When we didn't have the misting systems, those activities would have to be done early in the morning or late in the afternoon. If it was sweltering hot, they'd even have to be canceled.
"Now, those activities can be enjoyed throughout the day, and we can't thank Climate Control Systems enough for that."
Rutkai is looking to develop more partnerships with area nonprofits that offer outdoor events, like benefit walks and runs, but said the systems also could benefit animal shelters and restaurants with outdoor seating.
"If I can make conditions better that allow nonprofits to draw more participants to their events, then, to me, that's when I truly see the benefit of what we do."

Chapter 7
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a form of bankruptcy that allows you to eliminate a certain portion of your liabilities. You can stop wage garnishments instantly and erase debts with chapter 7. This type of bankruptcy is sometimes referred to as straight bankruptcy or complete bankruptcy. By definition, chapter 7 is a short lived process that may be completed in as little as 180 days. In many instances, chapter 7 requires only one court appearance for you to meet with the trustee. In some cases, with the Cochran Firm Bankruptcy's emergency filing service, you could meet with your bankruptcy attorney only one time and meet with the trustee once. Think of the time that would save you instead of multiple appointments!
For many people, chapter 7 is the best solution for their needs, however, the experienced bankruptcy attorneys at the Cochran Bankruptcy Firm can often advise you if chapter 7 will meet your specific needs. Chapter 7 may allow one spouse to file for bankruptcy while preserving the financial credit of the other spouse in cases such as medical bills.
Chapter 7 is primarily utilized to eliminate unsecured debt while allowing you to continue paying for your home or vehicle. Chapter 7 also allows you the breathing room associated with filing bankruptcy relief by prohibiting your creditors from contacting you about debt and stops all collection activities such as garnishments, repossessions and foreclosures.
While not everyone qualifies for chapter 7, the experienced bankruptcy attorneys at the Cochran Bankruptcy Firm can quickly determine your eligibility and if chapter 7 is the best plan of progress for you. Although Chapter 7 is, by definition, a liquidating bankruptcy, in most states you can utilize state law to protect a certain amount of your assets. All of your options will be explained to you during your no obligation free consultation with an experienced bankruptcy attorney at the Cochran Bankruptcy Firm.

Sierra's Work

On a beautiful August morning, the sun penetrated through the clouds and reflected off the mucky water as I trekked through a slough on Shoemaker Island, a wet meadow adjacent to the Platte River in central Nebraska.
Posted on August 12, 2014
Invasive wetland plant species, such as common reed (Phragmites australis) and purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) have negative impacts on roosting availability for sandhill cranes on the central Platte River.
Posted on June 19, 2014
Every year in late spring and early summer, Rocky Mountain snowmelt travels downstream where it intercepts a series of dams, reservoirs, and diversions.
Posted on July 16, 2013
In recent years, the river has formed an S-shaped route a short distance upstream from the measurement weir and has caused the riverbanks near the gauging station to erode, threatening to bypass the weir itself.

Across the semi-arid landscape of the Nebraska Sandhills, ranchers have utilized the power of wind since the settlement period more than a century ago. Windmills are used to pump groundwater from the underlying aquifer to the surface where it is stored in stock tanks for livestock.
Posted on April 6, 2013
Wet meadows and grasslands are typically hydrologically connected to the river, so they are important for crane courtship, loafing, and bathing areas. They are diverse and secluded, where cranes can roost at times when the river is unsuitable.
Posted on April 2, 2013
Each spring, sandhill cranes communally roost in the braided channels of the Platte River in central Nebraska. The river channel's shallow areas and in-stream bare sandbars provide protection from predators, allowing the cranes to rest overnight.

Key Facts
- Platform – Nintendo Switch
- Genre – Open World RPG
- Playtime – 70+ Hours
- "Beaten?" – Enough for me (Main quest and lots of side quests completed)
- Date Beaten – 10th October 2017
- Platinum Trophy Unlock – N/A
The really good stuff
- Takes the Zelda formula and reinvents it for modern open world gaming and also manages to reinvent open world gaming in the process.
- Has a truly open world, apart from at the very extremes of the world map everything you can see can be accessed in some way.
- Great ways to travel around the world that all work together. Being able to climb on almost all surfaces is very freeing.
- Weapon breaking means you are constantly cycling your inventory having to change your tactics accordingly.
- The world design is spot on there is so many great things to see and do. The game is full of surprises. Lots of strong visual landmarks guide the player through the environment and lead them off the critical path.
- The story is what the player makes of it. The main thread is presented in a simple manner but the player's personal journey adds to and enhances it.
- The different environment types have their unique challenges to overcome and memorable characters. Each area of the map has its own feel and all of them lived in vibe.
- This is a game that manages to keep throwing surprises at you. You'll have a an idea to try reaching somewhere on the map or try combining a weird combination of systems and the game rewards you accordingly.
Possible improvements
- Enemy variety becomes an issue around the halfway mark. There are a lot of enemies but most are just recoloured tougher versions of monsters you've already encountered, many, many, times.
- Felt like there could have been more giant monsters especially ones tied to areas like the sand whale/shark things in the desert. Tying these into some sort of hunting system across the game would incentivise seeking them out a bit more too.
- There is a weird inverse difficulty curve to the game. At first it is an almost Dark Souls/Bloodborne cycle of learning through death but by the end game when you have fully equipped yourself most encounters are a cakewalk.
- Tutorials and tips feel like they always come too late or after the player has figured out a system during the course of play. Many are also missable, learning to cook properly was a google job for me because I hadn't come across the right book in the right shack to learn how to do it in game.
- The dungeons are tightly designed puzzles but they felt empty and lacking in character especially when compared to ones in previous Zelda games.
- While the shrines are a welcome distraction that make up for the more streamlined dungeons the do get a tad repetitive after a while. Especially the combat trial ones….
What is the core of the game?
- Redefining the Zelda experience for a new era.
- Have a strong set of systems that are interconnected and work with/against each other based on the players actions and responses.
- Leave the player to set their own goals within the framework of the game and encourage them to deviate from the path and really explore the game world.
What did the game mean to me?
- This was a beautiful game to have the pleasure of enjoying. It does so much right that it totally outweighs any shortcomings the game has for me. It is hard to put into words how invested I got in this game's world, story and characters.
Key Takeaway
- Sometimes throwing away an established formula and building a new one from the core tenants of a franchise can really pay off.
- Also if something looks slightly out of place there is probably a Korok hiding under it.

I am trying to understand how to use a flash/light meter to assist in balancing flash and ambient light ... and I've wandered into a swamp of deep confusion. I know that there is something very simple that I am missing ... but what is it?
Mine's a Sekonic meter and I looked to the Sekonic site for help. Here I find (for the outdoors fill-flash case):
"The first step, then, is to take a reading on the subject. On an overcast day, the foreground and the background should be receiving approximately the same amount of light. A typical reading on a dull, cloudy day at ISO 100 would be about 1/60 at f/5.6. Most photographers prefer their fill flash to be about two-thirds to one stop below the ambient light, but this is entirely a creative decision. Assuming that you prefer one stop, take flash readings until the meter reads "f/4", one stop below the ambient level of f/5.6."
It is at the last sentence that terminal brain-fade sets in. How is it possible to add light using a flash-gun(s) and then get a lower light meter reading than the initial ambient reading? The ambient light hasn't gone away.
At this point, all further advice and instruction becomes quite useless to me. I just can't get my head around the basic idea.
I know you can chimp your way around these issues and just use trial and error to get a good mix of ambient and flash ... and I do. But I would like to be more systematic about things. I'd like to understand what I am doing.
I'd be most grateful for advice.

Our History
In the year of 1832, Allen Frazier started teaching in what was
then known as Brown's Schoolhouse, about three-quarters of a mile
from the present Trinity High School building. Frazier taught this
school until 1839, calling it Union School because it was supported
by the Quakers and the Methodists of the community.
Brantley York took Frazier's place in 1839 and in that year a
new schoolhouse was begun where Braxton Craven Elementary now
stands. In May 1840, the new building was finished, and the
children moved to it in a parade through the woods. The first
commencement here was held in July, 1840. On this occasion, Irene
Leach was among the graduates. When York resigned in 1843, she was
elected assistant to the new principal, Braxton Craven - later
becoming Mrs. Craven.a mile from the present Trinity High School
building. Frazier taught this school until 1839, calling it Union
School because it was supported by the Quakers and the Methodists
of the community.
In 1851 a larger brick building, containing living quarters as
well as classrooms, was erected, and the school became a normal
college. This change was made under the leadership of Dr. Craven,
who served as president for eight years.
Brantley York and Braxton Craven
During this administration, the Quakers having decided to their
own schools, the property was taken over by the North Carolina
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The transfer
was made in 1859, and Trinity College was established.
During the Civil War years, the "Trinity Guard," a volunteer
militia company composed of members of the student body at Trinity
College, poses in front of the school.
A few years later, in 1876, a larger addition including a
phenomenal auditorium was made to the building. The new building
was personally planned and supervised by Dr. Craven himself, who
remained the president of Trinity College until his death in
Following his death, Rev. Marquis Wood and Rev. John Franklin
Heitman exercised the duties of president until the electionGUARD
of Dr. John F. Crowell in 1887. In September, 1892, Trinity College
was moved to Durham where, as Duke University, it has become one of
the leading colleges in the nation.
One year before the removal of the college, a high school was
established under the direction of W. T. Gannaway - both groups
using the same building. Following Professor Gannaway as principals
were J. F. Heitman, T. A. Smoot, George B. Pegram, John F. Kirk, R.
M. Vestal, A. A. Crater, W. A. Bivens, T. J. Henry, T. J.
Covington, D. C. Johnson, and T. E. Storey, the Methodists of the
Under the leadership of Mr. Storey in 1924, the Trinity College
Building was torn down and the old high school building begun. It
was completed, however, in time for commencement to be held in it
in 1925. The first principal in the new building was J. T. Weaver,
who was succeeded by R. D. Marsh, A. R. Bullock, F. D. McLeod, . H.
Abernathy, L. H. Koon, T. H. Smith, C. W. Hawkins, and J. R.
THSIt was during the administration of J. R. Coggins that a new
structure to house the Trinity High School was conceived and built.
Architect Alvis George, the prime designer of the complex of
buildings completed in January, 1969, described the campus plan as
"an educational town... The central court is designed as a town
buildings are added, the 'city streets' will gather the pedestrians
and take them back to the 'plaza'."
This campus has grown from a four-building core in 1969 to the
current ten-building complex that includes a gymnasium, auditorium,
choral and instrumental music building, football stadium, practice
football field, soccer field, track, and greenhouses.
Succeeding Mr. Coggins as principal have been D. E. Farlow and,
the current principal, Dr. Darrel Saunders. It was with great pride
in our heritage that we anticipate continued growth and educational
quality from the Trinity High School.
