Kuzu zang po la from Bhutan!
This isn't the kind of trip that incorporates time for blogging. And that's the best kind of trip, I think. I have hundreds of photos and stories and bits of trivia to tell you when I'm home but for now, let me just say I'm having an amazing time. I had extremely high expectations for this holiday and they have been exceeded. If you have the time and the cash available, you really need to come check out this kingdom in the clouds.

Proposing a robust designed facility location is one of the most effective ways to hedge against unexpected disruptions and failures in a transportation network system. This paper considers the combined facility location/network design problem with regard to transportation link disruptions and develops a mixed integer linear programming formulation to model it. With respect to the probability of link disruptions, the objective function of the model minimizes the total costs, including location costs, link construction costs and also the expected transportation costs. An efficient hybrid algorithm based on LP relaxation and variable neighbourhood search metaheuristic is developed in order to solve the mathematical model. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed hybrid algorithm has suitable efficiency in terms of duration of solution time and determining excellent solution quality.

French Provincial Chest/
I have always had a soft spot for French Provincial furniture. Maybe it's because growing up, my bedroom set was this style. Or maybe it's because I live under the impression that anything French must be fancy and sophisticated, so I can't help but to like it! Who knows?! But whatever the reason, I've always been drawn towards the curved lines, turned legs and ornate hardware that defines French Provincial furniture, so when I found a set at an auction a couple weeks ago, I was all about it!
Here is the Before picture.
The piece was structurally sound and really only needed a good cleaning. It's always interesting finding old pieces at auctions and wondering what their stories are. Was this piece passed down in the family? Who used it? Why are they getting rid of it? (Well, I guess I don't really need to know the answer to that last question - we don't need to get morbid over here!) Anyways, in one of these drawers I found a school photograph of a girl dated 1958. I've also found old receipts, anniversary cards with love letters written inside, and ornate keys among other items. When you find items like this, you can't help but to wonder what the original owners were like.
The first thing I wanted to tackle was the hardware. I feel like everyone has their own secret product or method when it comes to cleaning metals. Wanna know mine? Bar Keepers Friend. This stuff is pretty amazing.
Check out the Before & After. I was amazed at the drastic change in color and the bright, shiny results. It took a bit of work, but it was well worth it.
Now that I had bright, shiny hardware again, I wanted to show it off. I knew painting the piece a darker color would really make the hardware pop, which is what I was going for. I finally decided on Annie Sloan's Graphite.
Here is how the piece turned out.
The first thing you notice now is the hardware...
which I realized as I was taking the Before & After shots, is now on upside down. Whoops! I am kinda digging it though, and not really sure if I'm going to flip them around. I think it's one of those "You say potato, I say potahto" kinda things!
I went back and forth about whether I should use gold gilding wax in the carving detail. I finally opted against it. I thought it may compete too much with the distressed edges and make the piece look too busy.
Instead, I opted for additional contrast by staining the top with Minwax.
Now that this beauty is done, I'm ready to finish off the rest of the set!

The 2017/18 Budget Speech of Uganda read on 8 June indicated that our country's debt burden now stands
at US$8.7 billion (Shs28 trillion)! For the coming financial year alone, about Shs14 trillion (12 percent of the budget) has been earmarked for debt financing, which obviously sounds alien to many Ugandans. It is absurd to note that most of us are not bothered by such statistics and even the dignitaries that attended the event found comfort in napping through the entire budget reading process. However, whether we nap in oblivion or not, a bad economy affects everyone.
The taxpayer is usually the one who suffers most when it comes to debt financing. So the cost of doing business is going to increase. Translation: we are going to pay more taxes. That is why as citizens it is our constitutional right to demand accountability and transparency in debt management from the Government. As citizens we need to have public dialogue which can contribute to meaningful solutions that will help manage public debt. As a country, is it sustainable for us to keep borrowing?
In Uganda, public debt is managed by the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development in liaison with the Bank of Uganda. According to the 2015 Audit Report by the Ministry of Finance, it was stated that public debt is basically incurred primarily for financing budget deficits and development of domestic financial markets, among other priorities.
Uganda once had an unsustainable external debt burden of US$5.5 billion (Shs14.257 trillion) in the early and mid-2000s, which led to the outflow of foreign exchange. Currently, over 60 percent of the public debt is external debt and 40 percent is domestic debt. Mr Martin Nsubuga, a senior economist in the macro-economic policy department in the Ministry of Finance, told the Sunday Monitor recently that Uganda's public debt is spiralling at close to two percentage points every year.
That is detrimental to our domestic growth as an economy. Therefore, the Government must address the high cost of domestic borrowing, and reduce domestic bond rates if we are to reduce the tax burden on all Ugandans, and if our economy is to grow to a sustainable level.

Directed by both Simon Helberg and his (unfortunate) wife Jocelyn Towne, We'll Never Have Paris features Helberg's (cringingly) semi-autobiographical proposal story in what appears to be something akin to a pseudo-Woody Allen picture.
This comparison to Allen's directorial attitude regarding romance shows itself in more than just subject, location and quick-speech; We'll Never Have Paris shovels out slimy neuroses and self-deprecation in ludicrous quantity. Despite said abundance of these idiosyncracies, Helberg's central protagonist becomes entirely unfit for human consumption. By burying a quintessentially unlikable character in nearly insurmountable cinematic affectations, Helberg has truly shown that there's no formula for charm.
Simon Helberg's cringe-inducing (non)romantic comedy crudely force-feeds its characters on time-honoured flaws, only to watch on hopefully as the audience eventually gives in to its absurdity.
CAST: Melanie Lynskey, Zachary Quinto, Simon Helberg
DIRECTOR: Simon Helberg, Jocelyn Towne
WRITERS: Simon Helberg
SYNOPSIS: Quinn immediately regrets his decision to break up with his long-term girlfriend after "experimenting" with a colleague.

What I think stands out most about this recipe is how much the cinnamon adds to it. The lentils are simmered with a cinnamon stick, and while subtle, the flavor they absorb makes all the difference in the dish as a whole. It brings a wonderful depth and complexity to the flavor, without anything actually tasting like cinnamon. This plus the spice from the cayenne pepper create an outstanding dish that would otherwise run the risk of being rather boring. I chose a pasta that has fun colors and texture to add a little more vibrancy to the dish. I loved how the spiral shapes added bounce and airiness to the casserole as well, and the colors matched those of the lentils, spinach and carrots, which made the whole dish so cheerful looking. You can go with any pasta you like.
This recipe is inspired by "The Meat Lover's Meatless Cookbook" by Kim O'Donnel.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 55 minutes
Total time: 70 minutes
Yield: 4-6 servings
Spinach Lentil Ragout Over Pasta
- 1 small cinnamon stick
- 1/4 medium-sized onion, peeled but left intact, plus 1/2 onion minced
- 1/2 cup dried brown or green lentils
- 3 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 box rainbow spiral pasta (or about 2 cups any uncooked pasta you'd like)
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium-size carrot, peeled and diced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup red wine
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 1/2 cups tomato puree
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cups spinach, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Cooking Directions
- In a saucepan, bring one cup water to a boil, and add in the cinnamon stick, the intact 1/4 onion, and the lentils. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for about 25 minutes or until the lentils have absorbed the water. Discard the cinnamon stick and the onion. Then add in 1/2 teaspoon of fine sea salt and stir to combine. Set aside.
- While the lentils are simmering, bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook your pasta until al dente.
- As the lentils and pasta are cooking, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the carrot, celery, minced onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened. Add the wine and thyme, and allow the wine to reduce for about 2 minutes. Add the tomato puree and cayenne pepper, and stir to combine. Let the mixture cook over low heat for about 10 minutes.
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the lentils to the vegetable and spice mixture, and cook on low heat for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, letting them absorb the flavor. Add a tablespoon or two of water if the ragout seems dry. Taste, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the spinach, turn off the heat, and cover the mixture to allow the spinach to wilt.
- In a casserole dish, spoon a small amount of the ragout into the bottom of the dish, and spread a layer of pasta. Then layer ragout on top of that. If you use shells, be sure that the ragout makes it into the inside of the shells. Top off the mixture with cheese, and place the dish on the center rack. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until everything is heated through and the pasta noodles are soft.
- Plate, serve and enjoy!

I believe holographic musical instruments like the Dub Cadet will be commonplace in the future, showing up everywhere from schools (for education), to homes (for fun), to media offices (for creativity), and in music studios (for production). The reason is simple: Free-from rotational control takes a complex process and radically simplifies it:
It's a holographic musical instrument, which means the notes you play are determined by the angle you have turned the ball.
In fact, the Dub Cadet contains no prerecorded melodies or beats. But it does pack specially designed musical DNA to morph your motions into amazing colorized songs. Effortlessly explore musical patterns like never before for hours of creative brainstorming, ear training, and fun.
It's motions are tracked with the same cutting edge electronic gyroscopes used in smartphones, pedometers and the infamous Segway. The data from these motion sensors is processed into real-time harmonies and solo notes using the Arduino programming environment on a custom created circuit board.
Each note of the scale flashes to the beat of your harmonies to create a display of bright animated colors. For more videos see my youtube channel.
Improvised music has the charming ability to help us discover new possibilities through unexpected outcomes and 'happy accidents'. The problem is, it takes a lot of practicing to build up the skills and confidence to improvise. With the Dub Cadet, anyone can enjoy making spontaneous music that sounds great. It uses technology to bridge the gap so that anyone can play.
This magical device enables:
- Over 10,000 chord possibilities.
- Endless rhythm possibilities.
- 52 Polyphonic (multi-note) Instrument voices.
- Expressive 3D pitch-bend.
- Self-Amplified Loudspeaker.
- Headphone and MIDI output.
- Visual music you can see and hear!
Several buttons let you discover sound in the moment and react to it dynamically, setting off a chain reaction of creative synthesis that I find downright revolutionary. It lets you do more with less, giving you a new interface to simply enjoy the unlimited combinations available.
- Solo turns the ball into a big 3D pitch-bender that snaps to the notes in your scale for super-cool bendy solo's.
- Loop repeats your last measure of notes while allowing the rhythm to continue morphing with your motion.
- Arpeggio breaks each chord into pieces and plays them one note at a time at high-speed for a truly epic progression.
- Drumbot plays a beat that reacts to your music to fill out the sound.
- Scale selects the base scale or key signature used to form your chords. There are 16 varieties of scales to explore.
- Voice selects one of 52 instruments to change the way the Dub Cadet sounds. Make it sound like a trumpet, a guitar, a pitched drum, or classic 8-bit video game, to name a few.
I've worked hard to design a product with features everyone can use and explore. By trying out lots of things, I've been able to keep only the best innovations and tailor them for an extremely flexible and fun musical play experience.
It is well known that the mood of music is largely dependent on the specific scale or key signature that provides it's harmonic backbone. Whether excited, relaxed, funny, ephemeral, or exotic, the feel of the music is created from the relationships formed between the notes. By changing scales, you can completely change the mood of the music.
The Dub Cadet allows you to play in these 16 diverse scales coming from all over the world:
Adonai malakh, Acoustic/Lydian Dominant, Blues, Enigmatic, Flamenco, Gypsy, Harmonic major, Harmonic minor, Hirajōshi, Pentatonic Major, Major, Melodic Minor, Mixolydian, Persian, Prometheus, Ukrainian Dorian.
The Dub Cadet is open source, meaning that anyone who knows a lick about computer programming can start playing with the code to make it do new things. If you have an inspiration for a new feature, you can add it right into the musical brain (Arduino based ATmega328 micro-controller) via USB. I've worked hard to balance simple MIDI operation, streamlined features, and expandability so you can add your unique touch.
Being a MIDI instrument means it can be outputted to other MIDI synthesizers, voice banks, and computers for further processing.

The Inspiration:
While working at Pixar, I picked up a little secret for creating good character animation: every joint and every limb of the body moves in an arc as it travels through space. In other words, rotation is the fundamental action by which animals and humans move. It's a basic fact that you only really need to consider when animating.
This little secret marinated with my longstanding pursuit of musical exploration until one day I had an inspiration: I wanted to design an instrument that used only rotation to make music. No keys to press, no levers to pull, no strings to strum. It would be a totally unconventional approach to music: a ball. Since rotation is 3-dimentional, it would create a dynamic and super-unique way to structure sound. I was very curious to see how an instrument could use the motion curves of human movements to generate music. The Dub Cadet is the fruit of this pursuit.
My daughter Lydia actually inspired me to go forward and build the Dub Cadet. I saw her playing with toys one morning and it all clicked: Rotation-Toys-Musical-Instrument-Improvised-Gizmo. I understood that a rotational instrument in the shape of a ball would allow her to discover music in a way that was not currently possible. I've had a blast building the prototype and now I am very excited to keep revising and innovating upon the discoveries.
The funding I hope to raise with kickstarter will take the Dub Cadet prototype as seen in the video and turn it into a mass produced gadget for you and your friends to enjoy. I will be buying materials at bulk rates to create a quality product that is also affordable.
The mass produced Dub Cadet will measure 6.25 inches (158 mm) in diameter and will be created through a 3D printing manufacturing process using stylish and Eco-friendly PLA plastic. PLA is a plastic made from the renewable resources of sugarcanes or cornstarch.
In addition to the Ready to Play Dub Cadet Instrument, I am offering an Unassembled Kit with instructions for those that like to tinker. The kit will come together in about 2 hours max. The source code is available too! From beginner, to expert, or power-user; anyone can push the boundaries of what is possible with this musical platform.
I've spent a lot of time organizing the pledge levels, so you can get a reward that's right for you. Thanks very much for your support!
Note: All Pledges include US shipping. Non-US residents will need to add $25 USD to your donation to cover customs clearance and international shipping and handling.

Posted on May 13, 2002 in Washington Watch
Despite the fact that Jean-Marie Le Pen was soundly defeated in France's recent presidential elections, that he made the run-off and gained almost one-fifth of the vote set off alarm bells throughout Europe. Across the continent, grave public concern was expressed about the emergence of a dangerous far-right political current. Articles appearing in most of Europe's major papers compared the relative strength of similar movements in each of the European Union's countries.
It was in this context that a number of Arab friends have written asking me to describe the situation of the far right in the U.S. And since I have recently raised the issue of the role of what I have called the neo-conservative movement and the religious right wing of the Republican party, questions have been asked about how those two currents compare with Europe's far right political parties.
Since I have often referred to these two U.S. currents as far-right and extremist, I felt that it would be important to better describe them and, in so doing, to shed more light on contemporary politics in the U.S.
It is important from the outset to note that neither the religious right nor the neo-conservative movement represents the extreme chauvinism or xenophobia of the Le Pen current. There are such tendencies in U.S. politics but they are on the fringes of the political spectrum and have no home, at this time, in either of the two major American parties. There are, for example, hundreds of small white supremacist organizations and even militia groups in the U.S. They are loosely connected, but remain a threat and are closely watched by law enforcement. These groups, however, continue to exist, in part, because of the persistence of racism in many parts of the U.S.
On only a few of these occasions have these racist tendencies coalesced into an electoral force. David Duke, a former Nazi sympathizer and Ku Klux Klan leader, has run for office as a Republican in his home state of Louisiana capturing, at one point, about one-third of the vote. He was quickly denounced by the national party and has, therefore, remained a marginal figure in national politics.
Similarly, when Pat Buchanan left the Republican party to run for president on the Reform party ticket in 2000, he moved to the far right on immigration and race issues, paralleling much of Le Pen's message. His effort, however, failed to garner any significant support.
The neo-conservatives and the religious right were not identified, in the main, with any of these efforts, because neither racism nor anti-immigrant xenophobia are a part of their thinking. Let me describe what they are.
The neo-conservative movement is best characterized as an intellectual current espoused by a small but extremely influential group of writers, media commentators, political operatives and academics. It is not a mass-based movement, but because of the influence wielded by its advocates, it has been able to shape the policy debate within the Republican party. The editorial pages of today's newspapers and the talkshows on U.S. television are dominated by neo-conservatives. They also hold some key policy posts within the Bush Administration.
The neo-conservative movement began in the 1960's and 1970's as a reaction by some Democrats to the policies of the Soviet Union. Some of the early founders of this current had even been Socialists, but were driven by anti-Communism, especially the USSR's attitude to Israel and its own Jewish citizens, to seek more extreme ways of confronting that regime. As they became increasingly disenchanted with what they described as the Democrats' "soft" attitude toward fighting the cold war, many drifted to the Republican party. When they were welcomed into the Reagan campaign in the late 1970's, their transformation was complete.
Interestingly enough it was at this same time that the U.S. neo-conservatives developed a relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel. Netanyahu had invited many of those influential writers and commentators to a working conference in Jerusalem to discuss how to end the Democrats' "fixation on human rights" and replace it with a campaign against "terror" as the dominant theme in U.S. foreign policy.
Though they embraced Ronald Reagan's presidency and his no-holds-barred war against the "evil empire" and were, in turn, embraced by Reagan, the neo-conservatives never fully embraced the entirety of the conservative agenda. They were not social conservatives, nor were they, strictly speaking, economic conservatives. For example, they did not share the social conservatives' abhorrence of abortion, and some neo-conservatives remained liberal in their economic policy and broader social policy. What brought them into the Republican party was their aversion to the Soviet Union and, of course, their support for Israel.
This movement did not support the first George Bush presidency as enthusiastically as they had supported Reagan. Bush was a traditional conservative, more moderate in his foreign and domestic policies than his predecessor. And so for Bush's four years in office and Clinton's eight years, the neo-conservatives were out in the cold.
Today, however, they are back in key government posts and with their continuing influential roles in the print and electronic media, they are playing a powerful role in national politics.
The administration of George W. Bush is not as ideologically-based as that of Ronald Reagan. Many currents of thought are represented within its ranks. While these diverse views are sometimes at loggerheads, what helped to tip the scales, at least for a time, in the direction of the neo-conservatives, were the September 11 terrorist attacks. The almost adolescent simplicity of neo-conservative thought formed a useful framework to mobilize public attitudes in favor of a war on "terrorism".
Neo-conservatism essentially sees the world in absolutist terms–good versus evil. It sees no possibility for compromise, since, they believe, any agreement with evil, in the end, only weakens the forces representing good. Therefore, neo-conservatism projects, as both desirable and inevitable, permanent confrontation between good and evil, until evil is defeated.
The rhetoric of this current can clearly be found in President Bush's description of terrorists as "evil doers", or his characterization of an "axis of evil", or his warning to other nations "you are either with us or you are against us".
The danger, of course, is that despite the fervent desire of the adolescent ideologues of the neo-conservative movement, the world is not so black and white. The more mature recognition of the world's complexity is what has created diplomacy–that is, the need to create structures of international relationships to protect interests in a complex world.
If the neo-conservatives were to win, all of the structures of diplomacy erected over the past several decades would be torn down in favor of a unilateral U.S. confrontation with "evil". One can see the internal debate within the Administration play out as it moves between the politics of confrontation and the withdrawal from international conventions, treaties and conferences, then back to the pursuit of negotiations and diplomatic initiatives.
In this context, it is interesting to note the role played by the neo-conservatives in the media. At times, when their counterparts within the Administration are losing the internal battle for the ear of the President, neo-conservatives commentators will launch what appears to be a concerted campaign in public, in an effort to sway policy. They did so early on, for example, on the issue of Iraq, advocating a unilateral attack immediately following what they called the "victory" in Afghanistan. More recently, the neo-conservatives ganged up in a public assault against President Bush's April 4th speech pressuring Sharon to end his incursion into the West Bank. In both cases, they appeared to have some, though not complete, success in effecting Administration policy.
In short, the neo-conservatives are a potent, thought not always decisive force in shaping the policy of the Bush Administration. The President may use their rhetoric, but does not always follow their strict policy of confrontation.
In a future article, I will discuss the other major current that impacts the thinking of the modern Republican party: the religious right.

second bank of the river. These continued passing for more than a quarter of an hour, and at length varied their bearing so as to pass over the mountain, behind which they disappeared before the rear came up.
In the Atlantic States, though they never appear in such unparalleled multitudes, they are sometimes very numerous, and great havoc is then made amongst them with the gun, the clap net, and various other implements of destruction. As soon as it is ascertained in a town that the pigeons are flying numerously in the neighborhood, the gunners rise en masse, the clap nets are spread out on suitable situations, commonly on an open height in an old buckwheat field; four or five live pigeons, with their eyelids sewed up, are fastened on a movable stick—a small hut of branches is fitted up for the fowler at the distance of forty or fifty yards—by the pulling of a string the stick on which the pigeons rest is alternately elevated and depressed, which produces a fluttering of their wings similar to that of birds just alighting; this being perceived by the passing flocks they descend with great rapidity, and, finding corn, buckwheat, etc., strewed about, begin to feed, and are instantly, by the pulling of a cord, covered by the net. In this manner ten, twenty, and even thirty dozen have been caught at one sweep. Meantime the air is darkened with large bodies of them moving in various directions; the woods also swarm with them in search of acorns; and the thundering of musketry is perpetual on

Worldwide Action in Education
Two New Initiatives of UNESCO for Human Development
Twenty years after the publication of Learning to be, it seemed opportune to initiate a fresh examination of education, its aims and processes, to study and reflect on the challenges facing education in the coming years.
The initial debates of the Commission revealed agreement on one central theme, namely the role of education in promoting harmony in the increasing globalization of human society. The Commission is attempting to discern how education could make a difference in bringing people into closer harmony, how it could help people learn to live together. Its members underscored the need to find ways in which to reflect adequately the diversity of situations and of the responses to these situations, while maintaining a strong central message.
The debate on the main turning points in human development will be continued in subsequent sessions and ad hoc working groups by region on the basis of specially commissioned studies. These turning points fall into three main categories: those related to the economy (in particular new configurations in the organization and distribution of work), those related to demographic change, and those related to science and technology, including the media. All three will have important consequences for ecology and the environment. The role of the nation state and the evolution of nation states as entities in relation to education was an underlying theme in these reflections.
The worldwide issues forming the background to the Commission's thinking prompted the fundamental question whether education could purport to be universal. Could it by itself, as a historical factor, create a universal language that would make it possible to overcome a number of contradictions, respond to a number of challenges and, despite their diversity, convey a message to all the inhabitants of the world? In this language which, ideally, would be accessible to everybody and in which the maxims and views of the West would no longer be preponderant, all the world's wisdom and the wealth of its civilizations and cultures would be expressed in an immediately comprehensible form.
The message that this language would convey would have to be addressed to human beings in all their aspects, body and mind, material and spiritual activity, private person and citizen, individual and community member.
Report by Jacques Delors International Commission on Education First session, 2-4 March 1993
Mr Pérez de Cuéllar stressed in this connection that it is culture which 'holds the key to human, sustainable development based on sharing' and that 'development begins in human culture'. The cultural dimension of development will therefore be central to the work of the Commission. It is nevertheless not enough merely to repeat that it must be taken into consideration: it is also necessary to say how this can be done. The Commission's report should make it possible to move from theory to practice and to guide action towards the solution of specific problems. As stated in the Commission's mandate, 'in the future, development models should be focused on people and should foster cultural values instead of being prejudicial to them'. The two Commissions, which are complementary to each other, will co-operate closely. Mr Pérez de Cuéllar stated in this connection that 'education, which is, by the same token as science, an essential dimension of culture and is also its principal means of transmission - is first and foremost a long and reciprocal relationship with citizenship, with cultural, economic and social development'.
Education is a key link in the connecting structure between culture and development. What methods are likely to ensure better symbiosis between each person's culture, the education that transforms us, and the development to which both should contribute but which in return should be geared to the cultural and educational goals? Should we not open up a line of research in this field to ensure that there is no repetition of the failure of socially maladjusted models of cultural and educational development?
Culture can permeate development only if it first permeates education and if in return education effectively promotes fulfilment in one's own culture, and not merely social or professional selection, which very often and in many societies leads to the brain drain.
Javier Pérez de Cuéllar Address at the inaugural meeting of the WCCD, 17-21 March 1993
Learning to be
Towards an educating society
Learning to be, the report of the International Commission on
the Development of Education, presided over by Edgar Faure, was
published in 1972. With its many reprints and language versions
it became one of UNESCO's most popular publications.
Edgar Faure and his colleagues produced this report against the background of the student demonstrations and crisis of authority which marked the late 1960s, at a time when about one-third of the Member States had just gained their independence, a time of hope and optimism inspired by widespread economic growth.
The main theme, as Edgar Faure wrote in his presentation of the report, is that education can only be overall and lifelong. 'We should no longer assiduously acquire knowledge once and for all, but learn how to build up a constantly evolving body of knowledge all through life - learn to be.

The Jefferson Gun Club currently operates 6 skeet fields all are wireless.
Skeet is a recreational and competitive activity where participants attempt to break clay disks flung into the air at high speed from a variety of angles. For the American version of the game, the clay discs are 4 5/16 inches (109.54mm) in diameter, 1 1/8 inches (28.57mm) thick, and fly a distance of 60 yards (+/- 2 yards). The international version of skeet uses a target that is slightly larger in diameter (110mm vs 109.54mm), thinner in cross section (25mm vs. 28.57mm), and has a thicker dome center, making it harder to break. International targets are also thrown a longer distance from similar heights (over 70 yards), resulting in a faster target speed.
The firearm of choice for this task is usually a high-quality, double-barreled over and under shotgun with 28/30 inch barrels and open chokes. Often, shooters will choose an improved cylinder choke (one with a tighter pattern) or a skeet choke (one with a wider pattern), but this is a matter of preference. Some gun shops refer to this type of shotgun as a skeet gun. Alternatively a sporting gun or a trap gun is sometimes used. These have longer barrels (up to 34 inch) and tighter choke. Many shooters of American skeet and other national versions still use inexpensive semi-auto and pump action shotguns with great success. The use of clay targets replaced the more traditional target of live birds, as a cheaper, more humane and more reliable alternative, one reason they are also called clay pigeons.
The event is in part meant to simulate the action of bird hunting. The shooter shoots from eight positions on a semicircle with a radius of 21 yards (19 m), and an 8th position halfway between stations 1 and 7. There are two houses that hold devices known as "traps" that launch the targets, one at each corner of the semicircle. The traps launch the targets to a point 15 feet above ground and 18 feet outside of station 8. One trap launches targets from 10 feet above the ground ("high" house) and the other launches it from 3 feet above ground ("low" house). At stations 1 and 2 the shooter shoots at single targets launched from the high house and then the low house, then shoots a double where the two targets are launched simultaneously but shooting the high house target first. At stations 3, 4, and 5 the shooter shoots at single targets launched from the high house and then the low house. At stations 6 and 7 the shooter shoots at single targets launched from the high house and then the low house, then shoots a double, shooting the low house target first then the high house target. At station 8 the shooter shoots one high target and one low target. The shooter must re-shoot his first missed target, or if no targets are missed, must shoot his 25th shell at the low house station 8. This 25th shot was once referred to as the shooter's option, as he was able to take it where he preferred. Now, to speed up rounds in competition, the shooter must shoot the low 8 twice for a perfect score.

The Kentucky State Club Team Challenge trophy has returned to Jefferson Gun Club! From what we could see on the trophy it appears as though this trophy has not been awarded to Jefferson Gun Club in 31 years. Club team Captain Rick Corneliusen put together a team of dedicated and very focused shooters for the 2018 state skeet tournament. The team consisting of Rick Corneliusen (Captain), Wayne Wiksen, Hobart Miller, Kevin Parrott, and Andy Amrhein shot a collective 491 besting the next closest team by 5 who shot a 486. The highlight of the 491, however, was the pair of 100 straights shot by Hobart Miller and Kevin Parrott. This was the first 100 straight for both team members. Incidentally, Wayne Wiksen shot his first 100 straight earlier this season at the Kentucky Eastern Zone shoot. Congratulations to the 2018 Jefferson Gun Club Skeet Team! Thank you for bringing the trophy back.

Peroneal tendons are two tendons that support two important foot muscles (peroneus brevis and peroneus longus) that originate on the outside of the calves. These two muscles allow you to roll to the outside of the foot while standing.
Peroneal tendons are also called stirrup tendons because they help hold up the arch of the foot. The two muscles are held in place by a band of tissue, called the peroneal retinaculum. Injury to the retinaculum can cause this tissue to stretch or tear. When this happens, the peroneal tendons can dislocate from their groove on the back of the fibula. The tendons can be seen to roll over the outside of the fibula, which damages the tendons.
Skiing, football, basketball, and soccer are the most common sports activities leading to peroneal tendon dislocation. In some cases, ankle sprains have also caused this condition. Patients usually have to use crutches after such an injury, in order to allow the retinaculum tissue to heal and the tendons to move back to their natural position on the fibula. Sometimes a splint or compression bandage is applied to decrease swelling. Anti-inflammatory medications and ice are often part of the treatment. Note: Please consult your physician before taking any medications.
In moderate to severe cases of injury, when the peroneal retinaculum is torn or severely stretched and susceptible to dislocation, surgery may be required.

Just because their races are lower on the ballot, it doesn't mean they're not important
It's called "down ballot," but the offices beyond Governor are important to keep our state functioning and moving in the right direction. The best choices for these offices were clear before the top-two primary in June, and we've seen no compelling reasons to alter our recommendations. Here are the candidates The Bee recomends in the Nov. 6 election.
Attorney General
California's resistance to the Trump administration is playing out in courtrooms. As attorney general, Xavier Becerra has been leading that charge and doing it well. Becerra has filed some 40 lawsuits against the federal government over environmental policy, immigration and other issues, and just added net neutrality to his list. By taking part in multi-state legal challenges, he is making sure California's interests are represented.
Insurance Commissioner
Steve Poizner wants to return to the job he held from 2007 to 2011. This time, the former Republican is trying to do so as an independent. If he wins, that would be a first in California politics. In his previous stint, he battled health and auto insurance giants on unfair rate hikes while still granting enough profits to keep them in the state. California still needs that balance, especially in healthcare as attempts by Republicans to dismantle Obamacare are complicating premiums and costs.
Superintendent of Public Instruction
This has become a proxy war between supporters of charter schools and public schools. That fight distracts from the many other problems facing education. We prefer Tony Thurmond, the former Assemblyman from Richmond who has a long history of championing the poor, disabled and foster children. Marshall Tuck, the darling of the California Charter Schools Association, is said to have $11 million at his disposal.
Board of Equalization
This antiquated board – mired in controversy and steeped in scandal – has long since outlived its usefulness. It should be disbanded and its duties rolled into other offices of state government. Tom Hallinan of Ceres has pledged to work from within to get rid of the board to just that.
Secretary of State
Alex Padilla, the Democrat incumbent, has compiled a very strong record. Too rare for politicians these days, he has done what he promised in 2014: modernizing voting equipment, building registration and increasing turnout. Also, Padilla reacted responsibly to Russia's interference in U.S. elections. Republican Mark Meuser has bought into the fake news that there is widespread voter fraud.
State Treasurer
Democrat Fiona Ma is the most qualified to protect California's financial stability. A certified public accountant, she is a former speaker pro tem of the Assembly and as a member of the state Board of Equalization, she blew the whistle on its nepotism and accounting problems, She wants to create a banking system for cannabis, a necessity as the legal weed industry grows. She is endorsed by the current treasurer, John Chiang, which counts for a lot.
State Controller
Betty Yee, the Democratic incumbent, has done a stellar job as the state's chief financial officer. She conducted audits of small cities and Valley water districts, and pushed to strip power from the Board of Equalization. If re-elected, she has pledged to focus on tax reform and the state's huge public employee pension funds – both areas that deserve more scrutiny. There's no reason to take a risk with a new controller.

July 22 (UPI) -- Protests seeking equal surrogacy rights for people in the LGBT community took place throughout Israel on Sunday.
Demonstrators took to the streets in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Haifa and other cities after the Knesset --Israel's house of representatives -- passed a law granting state-supported surrogacy to single women, but excluding men, effectively making it impossible for men in same-sex relationships to have a child through a surrogate.
The law extended the right to lesbian couples, as the country considers both women in the relationship to be single women.
Protesters said the bill was discriminatory in blocking single men and gay couples and called for it to be amended.
"If the right exists in Israel -- if there are women who can have surrogacy, why can't men? Especially homosexual couples. We are here to protest against all the anti-democratic laws that have been enacted recently in the country, especially against the LGBT community," well-known Israeli drag queen Suzi Boum told The Jerusalem Post.
The Ayalon freeway in central Tel Aviv was shut down briefly as thousands of protesters marched along the roadway waving rainbow flags.
Hundreds of protesters also gathered near Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence in Jerusalem and three people were arrested, the Times of Israel reported.
Netanyahu previously pledged to support an amendment to the bill to include access to surrogacy for single men and same-sex male couples, but later voted against it.
The Aguda, the National Association of LGBT in Israel, organized strikes in response to the bill.
"For the first time ever, the gay community will go on a national strike," said the Aguda. "On that day workers from the community, and likewise our supporters and partners, will not be present at work and will close their businesses to protest the blatant discrimination against the LGBT community and the deterioration that has begun recently due to the government's efforts to roll back our campaign."
Several companies in Israel expressed their support for the strike, granted employees permission to attend the protests and promised to implement new policies to allow workers to have children through a surrogate regardless of their sexual orientation.

#quiltsforpeace Update
"When the Pulse nightclub shootings happened, the Orlando MQG helped our hearts to heal by asking us to make hearts in rainbow colors for them, DMQG answered that call by committing to 5 complete quilts, and I am proud to say we are looking at a minimum of 9 completed by our guild (we have an amazing group).
Then when tragedy struck in our own back yard on July 7th, it seemed the natural thing to make quilts for our city to help us heal. Ann (President of FWMQG) called me that morning and asked if Ft. Worth MQG could help Dallas by assisting in a block/quilt drive. Because we were all familiar with thehttp://cluckclucksew.com/2015/01/making-heart-blocks-in-multiple-sizes.html (thank you Allison for allowing us to use your pattern) it seemed an easy enough process to whip out blue with white background hearts. I went to work making our first two blocks and spreading the word to our guilds through Instagram. McKinney MQG then joined us and three guilds have been working together to rally our members to help us complete 20 quilts. These quilts are to go to the following: 5 quilts to each of the Fallen's Head of Household, 7 to the injured officers, 2 to the injured civilians, then 1 each to Chief Brown, Dart Chief Spiller, Mayor Rawlings, City Manager Gonzalez, Mark McCullers (SMU officer that drowned that same week), and Matt Pearce (Ft. Worth Police Officer shot 7 times last March).
Well…. that's how it started, and then there was Baton Rouge. Really?!?! Another ambush so fast? Our hearts started breaking again, and we decided to add 6 more quilts to our count. Baton Rouge MQG was relieved to hear #quiltsforpeace would be sending them blue heart quilts for their fallen and injured officers. They were already working on a plan to make quilts for Alton Sterling's family. I told them we would also like to send a quilt to Alton's family.
"When your heart hurts, you make a heart," is the message that Ann passed along to me from one of Fort Worth's board members, Jenn Haxton. #Quiltsforpeace is sincerely that, quilters that are coming together at a time when our hearts hurt. Our message is one of Peace, Love, and Healing. It has been amazing all the hearts, quilt tops, quilts, supplies, and donations that quilters from all over the world have sent to us to help us complete out mission we certainly could not have made it all happen with out the Instagram community.
If you are keeping track, we basically needed 27 quilts minimum. I am happy to say we have over 40. Today, we decided we would also give another quilt to every fallen officer's parent. We want to wrap them all in everyone's love to help their healing process. We are also looking into sending 2 quilts to the San Diego MQG for their fallen and injured officers. Our total just jumped to 34 quilts minimum."
Thank you Lee for the update!

A little boy will get the surprise of a lifetime today when San Francisco transforms into Gotham City to fulfill the 5-year-old leukemia patient's wish to be Batman for a day.
The Make-a-Wish Foundation has created an entire day catered to Miles' dream.
The day has begun with a special edition cover of the San Francisco Chronicle, whose entire front page is dedicated to the young superhero. The headline for the lead story is "Batkid Saves City."
The author? None other than Clark Kent.
The other front page stories, all about Batkid, are written by Lois Lane, Brenda Starr and Perry White.
Around 9:30 a.m. PT, Miles will see a breaking news story on a TV. The police chief will be asking whether anyone knows where Batkid is because he needs his help to solve a crime and "bringing the bad guys to justice," Make-a-Wish said in a statement.
Miles' day will then include rescuing a damsel in distress tied up across the Hyde Street cable car line and capturing the Puzzler in the act of robbing a downtown vault. As Batkid eats his lunch at Burger Bar, he'll get a special message from the chief, telling him to go to the window where he'll look out over Union Square and see a huge group of volunteers jumping up and down and asking for his help.
A villain will be kidnapping a famous San Francisco mascot and Batkid will rush to the rescue. His last stop will be City Hall, where the mayor and police chief will thank him and present him with a key to the city and a crowd will be cheering him on.
"He is a sunny, positive little boy and finds his inspiration in super heroes," Make-a-Wish said of Miles. "When we interviewed Miles for a wish, he surprised even his parents: he wishes to be BatKid!"
Make-a-Wish decided to make Miles' dream come true and, in a rare move for the foundation, asked the public to participate.
"This is one that we thought of as a great opportunity for people to share in the power of a wish so they can see how it affects not only the children and their families, but also the other people involved," Jen Wilson, marketing and promotions manager for Make-a-Wish in San Francisco, told ABCNews.com. "It has a big impact on many people.
"Since he wants to be a superhero, we felt like having a large crowd there waiting with signs and cheering him on would make him feel like a hero, not just because he battle villains and helped fight crime, but he's a true hero," Wilson said.
The interest level in Miles' wish has been "extreme," Wilson said, and that this is "definitely not the typical wish we grant."
The group is expecting hundreds, and possibly thousands, of people to come out and participate.
"We've gotten people who want to volunteer to participate, actors reaching out asking if they can play a role, photographers and videographers offering their services, people who want to give Miles gifts, makeup artists willing to donate their services, a fire truck that want to come out and show their support," Wilson said. "It's quite a range."
ABCNews.com will be following Batkid throughout the day, so check back for more.

STICKEEN, John Muir and the Brave Little Dog, by John Muir, as retold by Donnell Rubay. Illustrated by Christopher Canyon. Childrens Book Review
Well over 100 years ago, in the 1880s, the American naturalist and glacier specialist John Muir explored parts of Southeastern Alaska by canoe with the local Tlingit Indians. At one point, a small black dog attached himself to Muir, and trekked with him over the mountains of glacial ice that Muir was so intent on studying. At first, Muir wanted nothing to do with the dog, but the little tyke was so hardy, so brave and adventurous, that he impressed Muir with his abilities and in time the two became inseparable. Muir named him 'Stickeen', a local Indian name. What Stickeen could do was amazing, and Muir told the story of the dog many times to many people. Eventually Muir wrote the the book, Stickeen: The Story of a Dog (Boston: Houghton-Mifflin, 1909).
The version of the story reviewed here is based solidly on Muir's tale, but retold and admirably illustrated for a modern audience. At a crucial point in crossing a dangerous glacier, man and dog had to cross a huge crevasse, a giant bottomless crack in the ice. The only way across was on a precariously dangerous ice bridge. They both knew it was not safe, but they had no other choice. Muir went first, cutting steps in the ice with his ice axe. The little dog followed, fearfully, hesitatingly…, gradually reaching the far side, where Muir coaxed him up the last steep incline. Dogs are not good climbers, but Stickeen had no choice but to scramble up the ice to the top of the crevasse, where Muir was waiting.
When the dog finally reached the top, safely, he was happy beyond belief. In Muir's words:
"Well done! Well done little boy! Brave boy!" I cried, trying to catch and caress him. But he would not be caught. He darted hither and thither in his great joy, screaming and shouting, swirling round and round in giddy loops and circles like a leaf in a whirlwind, lying down and rolling over, then jumping up to yelp and cry again!
I ran to him to shake him, fearing he might die of joy. He ran off two or three hundred yards, his feet in a mist of motion. Then, turning suddenly, he rushed at my face—almost knocking me down—all the time screeching and shouting as if to say "Saved! Saved! Saved!"…
It's a powerful little story. Children from about 8 to 12 years old will certainly enjoy reading it, and younger children will enjoy having this remarkable adventure tale read aloud to them.
Stickeen: John Muir and the Brave Little Dog, by John Muir, as retold by Donnell Rubay. Scholastic Inc., 1998, 30 pages. Illustrated in color by Christopher Canyon. ISBN 0.429.08744.9.
