Text, Teacher, Tech: Creating Hybrid/Blended Language Classes at UT
with Blake Atwood, Department of Middle Eastern Studies; Nancy Guilloteau, Department of French & Italian; and Marina Potoplyak, Department of Slavic and Eurasian Studies
Sat, February 1, 2014 | CLA 1.302B, Glickman Conference Center, UT-Austin
As technology provides increasingly flexible and successful means of removing presentation and drill from the classroom, more "blended," or "hybrid" programs are being created to allow for more face-to-face interaction in class. These models are helping students take control of their learning and allowing faculty to work more creatively in class. This workshop will feature successful hybrid programs and demonstrate techniques to create similar models in any language.

Israel will likely allow exports of medical cannabis by the end of the year, a top lawmaker said on Thursday, a move that would boost state coffers and slow the growing number of firms establishing farms abroad.
Israeli companies - benefitting from a favorable climate and expertise in medical and agricultural technologies - are among the world's biggest producers of medical cannabis.
The finance and health ministries estimate exports could bring in about $1 billion a year - but some MPs have up to now stopped Israeli-grown cannabis going abroad, fearing more cultivation could push more drugs onto the streets at home.

We've all heard a lot of talk about mastermind groups and the benefits of networking. The concept, however, seems to intimidate many people. The press is flooding us with events around the world that we do not understand or influence. Then, in the same breath, the commentator explains the six degrees of unbundling and explains how we can influence events across the globe. What's that?
This is a bit of both. The first thing to stop, breathe and think. Keep in mind that we all view and interpret our events and their own experiences from their own perspective. While a commentator reads the script and does not have personal feelings about global events, most of us see events based on personal perspectives. We often take things personally that do not really affect us and the most important things for us, our family, and our friends.
What do you do with the benefits of networking? We live in a world with more than 6 billion people connected more or less by the Internet. A few years ago, networking refers to personal relationships with family, friends, and business relationships. Networking is a new meaning today because of the Internet.
In order to experience and enjoy networking, we need a new world view. In my opinion, this prospect faces much more than less with family, friends, and close business associates. Thus, we return to the groups of ideas and the advantages of the networks mentioned above. I thought we would all be better off with a positive, useful design team. It is possible that many positive groups have the same interest.
I suggest you take a world view with a personal perspective. Social networking on the Internet can consist of friends and business partners around the world. With the internet, millions of people can share information and experience in all social, economic, and geographical areas. With your sister groups, you can get real-world information about people around the world who learn to know and trust. Your sister groups can become sophisticated communities that all provide information, friendship, counseling, entertainment, and what you do together. For these activities to be implemented from the comfort of your home, this is just one of the benefits of networking.
Online commerce has helped the web from the resource library to share dynamic lives of dynamic groups of interactive communities, not just information. Trade, world trade, leads the online experience in a way that no one anticipates or is expected. This new economic platform can make you embrace it.
Home networks provide an opportunity to share the revolution of e-commerce. Network marketing and affiliate marketing companies lead the award. I personally prefer network marketing because it is because of the low cost of joining the company and the greater revenue when choosing the right company for you. This selection is where the network of sister groups can be particularly useful.
Today's network marketing company creates a product, carries out all administrative records, manufacturing, warehousing, shipping, and customer service features that allow you to create a wholesale business, just like a wholesaler buying club. a network of business builders you want to work with. Want to work from home with your family and friends or go to work that you and your staff do not like.
All this is possible partly because online shopping is simpler and safer. As a result of the constant development of online security, we realize that e-commerce and social networking are safe, convenient, and satisfying.
This article only addresses the benefits of state-of-the-art network connectivity to today's changing world. To find out more, please contact me and / or subscribe to Ezine.

Your Shoes — And What They Mean About You
It should come as no surprise that I'm somewhat of a shoe junkie. The higher the heel the better, in my opinion. When I'm on the subway, I look down not in an attempt to avoid eye-contact with my fellow passengers, but because I'm silently judging their shoe choices. Poor shoe selection is one of those things that really irks me about a person. Like I totally understand different taste, but I don't understand on what planet some people think their shoes are acceptable. It kills me. Similar to women who don't wear make-up, I think women who don't wear heels (or at the very least some freaking adorable ballet flats, Oxfords, or riding boots) need a smack across their face. Or maybe they just need to read this post, and see what their shoe choices are really saying about them. Read the rest of this entry
5 People You Meet on the Subway
New York City mass transit is one of the most amazing things in the world, if you ask me. For $2.25 you can pass your way through all 5 buroughs, rub elbows with business men and bums, and maybe even get to second base with a stranger. It's seriously genius. After you've spent some time riding the subway, especially during a rush hour commute, you start to seem similarities in your fellow passengers. I've realized, there are pretty much 5 kinds of people you'll find yourself sharing a ride with: Read the rest of this entry
Breaking Up in a Facebook World
A few weeks ago I posted a blog about the trials and tribulations of dating in a Facebook world. The social network that has brought us together with best friends and creepy stalkers has created some complexities when it comes to dating; adding a whole new layer of relationship issues. If you're lucky enough to begin a relationship with all the Facebook (and social media) complications, there's only one natural next step: the break up. And unfortunately, Facebook has thrown a wrench into this as well. Here's some advice on how to deal with your break up in a Facebook world: Read the rest of this entry
5 TV Shows You Should Never Watch If You Want to be Taken Seriously
It seems that every January, a slew of horrible new shows hit the airwaves with the promise of exposing all the idiots on your Facebook and Twitter feeds. These programs fall mostly into the reality TV category. You'll see many people posting on their social profiles about how dumb these shows are, but their live tweets each week prove that they are regularly tuning in. Sometimes even DVR'ing so they don't have to waste a moment of their mind–numbing adventures with silly commercials. Now, I don't judge you for watching any of the below programs, but I just can't take you seriously. If you'd like me to contine taking you seriously, avoid making public your love of the following: Read the rest of this entry
The New York City Trifecta
They say when you live in New York City, you're constantly in search of one of three things: the dream apartment, perfect relationship and a successful career. If you manage to nab each of these, you've officially made it. If you don't – well I'm not so sure what that means exactly. Maybe that you should just throw in the towel, start taking the bus and give up ordering a skinny at Starbucks. Until that time comes though, consider this your reference guide to ensure you actually make it in this city (and coming from someone who's snagged 2 out of 3, I figure I'm just as entitled as any to post this).

Leucinodes orbonalis (Gueneé) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is frequently intercepted by the Plant Health Service in England and Wales on imports of aubergine from Asia and Africa. Between 1999 and 2008 it was intercepted on 104 occasions, 60 of these on Solanaceae from Asia.
The caterpillar feeds inside the fruit, and so may not be detected until the damage is severe and secondary damage, such as rot, has taken effect. This damage can cause yield losses of more than 65% on aubergine in Asia. Whilst it is predominantly a tropical species, there is increasing concern that it could become established in the European Union, either in the Mediterranean member states, or in protected areas of cultivation in northern areas. One adult moth was caught in the UK at a light trap in Suffolk in 2006, but the origins of the specimen are unknown. Leucinodes orbonaliswas added to the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation (EPPO) alert list in January 2008.
Geographical Distribution
Leucinodes orbonalisis is found south of the Sahara in Africa. It has been recorded from Burundi, Cameroon, Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sao Tome and Principe, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zaire, Zambia and Zimbabwe. In Asia it is widespread, recorded from Bangladesh, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. There are also records from Saudi Arabia in the Middle East.
Leucinodes orbonalisis is currently absent from Europe, Oceania and North and South America. However, L. orbonalisis is one of a number of closely related species and the almost identical Neoleucinodes elegantisis is a pest of aubergines in North and South America.
Host Plants
Most plant health quarantine interceptions of L. orbonalis within the European Union have been on Solanum melongela (aubergine). Other members of the Solanaceae that have been recorded as hosts are S. tuberosum (potato), S. torvum (turkey berry), S. aethiopicum (African eggplant), and S. nigrum (black nightshade). More occasional hosts include S. gilo (scarlet eggplant), S. aculeatissimum(love apple) and Lycopersicon esculentum(tomato). Other recorded hosts, which may not be natural food plants, include Capsicum annuum (sweet pepper), Punica granatum (pomegranate) and Cucurbita species (gourds).
Pest Biology, Dispersal and Detection
The eggs are white or cream coloured and are laid singly or in groups on the underside of leaves.
They are less than 1mm long, and usually oval in shape.
When newly hatched, L. orbonalis caterpillars are c. 1 mm long and have a dark brown or black head with a body colour of pale pink to off-white. As the caterpillars grow, the head becomes paler brown and the pink colour on the body deeper. The final instar caterpillars have a definite pink body colour, with a pale brown to yellow head and pale brown spots on the body, and are about 18 mm long. There are no other distinctive markings.
The newly hatched caterpillars will sometimes bore into shoots, causing wilting and dieback, before moving into the fruit as they grow larger; or they may tunnel straight into the fruits. The later instars all bore into the fruit of the host plant, feeding from the inside, so that they are only visible if the fruit is cut open.
A single aubergine can be infested by between 1 and 20 caterpillars. Feeding damage to the fruit is often not immediately visible as the entry hole is usually small, near the calyx of the fruit, and the caterpillars block the entrance hole with excrement.
Fig 1 - Damage caused by Leucinodes orbonalis caterpillars boring into fruit
The plant sometimes will regenerate tissue over the entry hole, making detection almost impossible. The entrance wound allows secondary damage to occur to the fruit, such as fungal attack or rotting, and this more noticeable sign will give an indication of possible L. orbonalis infestation. The caterpillar only emerges from inside the fruit when it is ready to pupate in the soil, leaving a much larger and obvious exit hole at this stage.
The caterpillar pupates outside the fruit, spinning a thick, fibrous, dark brown coloured cocoon that is firmly attached to surrounding materials. The pupa cannot be seen through the cocoon.
The adult moths are comparatively small, with a wingspan of around 20 mm. The base colour of the wings is semi-transparent white, with pale brown and darker brown patterns, and males and females are identically patterned.
Fig 2 - Leucinodes orbonalis, live adult moth showing a typical resting posture with the abdomen curled up
The moths only fly for short distances, in darkness, and typically rest on the underside of foliage with their abdomens curled upwards.
Economic Importance and Damage
The preferred host (aubergine) is the main crop that could be put at risk. Economic damage occurs on this crop in Asia, but in England and Wales it is not a widely planted crop for commercial purposes, due to the high costs involved in heating glasshouses. Historically, there have been crops of up to 2 hectares grown, with a UK total of 11 ha in 2004. Aubergine is also becoming an increasingly popular crop among amateur gardeners in the south of England, where it grows moderately well under cover.
Potatoes and tomatoes, while being suitable hosts, are only attacked when there is no other food available, and there are no records of economic damage from L. orbonalis on these plant species. In the rest of Europe, approximately 89 ha of aubergine is grown under glass in the Netherlands, and in Mediterranean regions it is grown outdoors as a commercial crop.
Leucinodes orbonalis caterpillars contaminate the fruit of the host plant with their tunnels and frass, as well as allowing secondary damage, e.g., fungal attack. This damage means that the fruit becomes inedible and is destroyed. As L. orbonalis caterpillars are difficult to detect, a substantial portion of the crop may be infested before damage is noticed and hence the economic loss can be significant. If the caterpillars bore into shoots and stems, or there is a heavy infestation, this will weaken the host plant and cause yield loss in unaffected fruits.
Control Measures
Contact insecticides are not effective in controlling the caterpillars of L. orbonalis when they feed inside the fruit or stems. Effective control requires treatment at very frequent intervals, or carefully timed, to target the caterpillars between hatching and tunnelling inside the plant. Insecticides containing the active ingredients indoxacarb, teflubenzuron, deltamethrin or nicotine, or the biopesticide Dipel DF (Bt), are all effective insecticides for the control of caterpillars.
Destruction of infested crops is effective in eradicating the pest if there are no alternative hosts, such as Solanumweed species, left for a population to re-establish from pupae in the soil. All parts of the affected plants should be destroyed, as caterpillars can be present throughout the host plant. Destruction of infested crops and any reservoir weed hosts is the most effective method of ensuring eradication of this pest.
The adult moths can be monitored with crop-height pheromone traps to catch male moths, or both sexes can be controlled with space treatments of nicotine smoke, but they are not attracted to light traps. Leucinodes orbonalis requires temperatures of over 15oC to develop, with the optimum temperature for development being 27oC, so it is very unlikely to become established outside in the UK or northern Europe. Any possible outbreak in northern Europe is likely to be in protected cultivation and hence eradication will theoretically be easier as the outbreak would be contained within an
enclosed area.
Advisory Information
Suspected findings of L. orbonalis or any other non-native plant pest should be reported to the local Fera Plant Health and Seeds Inspector or to PHSI Headquarters, Sand Hutton, York.

I live in a Tiny White Box with a dog named Sam. I write, read, work with writers and walk in the woods. Sam (is a dog), a boxer and lab (I can't bring myself to use the phrase boxador), joins me on the last activity. At 58,I'm too old to die young but too young to die yet, so I've taken a sabbatical from life for a year while plotting the next act of my improbable life. This site records that time away from life.
As a warning, I am no Napoleon on Elba, plotting escape and a return to glory. First, I've never wielded power. Second, I've left rather than eaten the bitter bread of banishment.
Third, although I'm freakishly short, I have never intended to invade Russia. Yet.
My life in a Tiny White Box is filled with music. Among the artists regularly playing are:
Tonio K – The great unknown songwriter of the last 75 years
Peter Case – His eponymous first album is perfect from echo to eyes
Ani DiFranco – I am a deeply closeted lesbian leftist
Philip Glass – Classical m
usic for the short-attention-spanned
Warren Zevon – Obviously
Bob Dylan – Obviousler
Jill Sobule – No one-hit wonder (and that "hit" reached #67 on the Billboard Top 100 chart), she writes and sings great songs
Looking over this list, I realize other than Glass, I basically like one performer wearing different masks – I will angrily defend that mask.
Also, I walk. All the time. With my dog. Sam (is a dog) and I log about 5 miles a day. Honestly, I walk 5 miles; Sam (is a dog), with the back-and-forth pattern of puppies, probably gets more like 12 or 15. I'm the one with the iPhone that records my steps, though, so my numbers are official.
This site is updated almost daily (see the Ramblings section), so do come back. Meanwhile, I'll listen to Django Reinhardt (a favorite instrumentalist), work on the next Pretty Damn Good American Novel, tinker with a memoir and continue to plot the destruction of my enemies by turning them into my friends.
Oh, yes. I'm supporting myself completely with writing now, so please buy a copy of On Account of Because, a novel praised by none other than Tonio K., if this can be considered praise:
Christmas is always coming, even when there're just bones on the plate, so here's a link to another gift to demonstrate your dedication to strangeness.

Fire causes damage after lightning strike in Columbia
COLUMBIA — A tree caught on fire after being struck by lightning early Thursday morning.
The Columbia Fire Department and University Hospital Ambulance Service were dispatched at 5:47 a.m. to 4300 Royal Aberdeen Street. Multiple people called 911 to report the flames.
Units arrived on scene and found a tree that had been on fire next to a house.
Firefighters said they noticed a slight gas odor and smoke odor inside the house. They also said they were able to determine the chimney was hot. Firefighters pulled out the mantle and some bricks from the chimney to look for possible flames.
Officials said the damage was estimated to be $10,000. Crews said they were on the scene for two hours.
Three engines, a ladder, and a rescue squad responded to the incident.
The Columbia Fire Department said it recommends people test their fire alarms at least one per month.

Republican John Chrin launched his opening argument Monday in his campaign against Democrat Matt Cartwright in Pennsylvania's 8th District. The seat represents a rare pickup opportunity for the GOP this cycle in which it is largely on defense.
Republicans, hoping to stave off potential losses in the House, are looking to win in districts like the 8th, one of a dozen held by a Democratic lawmaker that President Donald Trump carried in 2016.
In his first television ad of the general election, Chrin notes his roots in the area.
"I made a lifetime of memories growing up here, learning about true Pennsylvania values, like perseverance, hard work and integrity," Chrin says in the ad, shared first with Roll Call. "It's where I got the tools to succeed."
Chrin was born in Fountain Hill, which is in a neighboring district, and owns a home there. He had been living in the affluent New Jersey town of Short Hills and recently purchased a home in Monroe County, which is in the 8th District.
If elected, he pledged to focus on fighting for jobs and affordable health care, and work to ban so-called sanctuary cities, or local jurisdictions that do not comply with federal immigration law.
"Together, we'll defend our families, our values, our Northeast Pennsylvania way of life," he says in the ad.
The $50,000 ad buy on broadcast networks will run for two weeks. For the race against Cartwright, Chrin is expected to tap into his personal wealth, amassed as a former banker at JP Morgan Chase and Merrill Lynch.
Republicans are confident of Chrin's chances in the district, which was redrawn earlier this year. They point out that Cartwright did not face a serious challenger in 2016, with his opponent spending only $30,000. Under the old lines, Cartwright won a third term by nearly 8 points, while Trump carried the district by 10 points. Trump still would have won by a similar margin had the new congressional map been in place.
Cartwright maintained a financial advantage at the end of the second fundraising quarter on June 30 with $1.8 million in cash on hand, according to Federal Election Commission documents. Chrin ended the quarter with $842,000 in the bank.
Inside Elections with Nathan L. Gonzales rates the race Leans Democratic.

Anna from First Colony Church of Christ in Sugar Land, Texas brings us this skyline for their kids.
The skyscraper buildings were made out of foam board with vellum paper attached to the back of the windows. 4×8 wooden frames with 2″ hole straps on each side of the frames. The buildings were put through pipe and poles. The black died buildings were bought from Stumps party website | still of night theme.
They added other objects such as park benches, fake foliage, and street lamps to create the 'park feel'. At the end of the stage, they placed 2×4 foam board pieces painted like grass with flowers. The foam board was slipped into 2-2×4 wood pieces (screwed).

Never Forget – to a nation wounded by the dreadful consequences of evil, these words signify an oath. When the acts of evildoers take away the lives of some and tear at the livelihood of others, "We shall never forget" is the pledge to remain intact the one temporal element no evil can tarnish: our memories. September 11th, 2001 is one day scarred into the memories of our people, especially New Yorkers. We remember the terror that has branded that day, though many people remember more acutely the goodness in those who were among the first-responders, and among the dead.
Perhaps the anniversary of September 11th teaches us how suffering caused by all the notorious evil acts of modernity demands our respectful remembrance. Of those we remember are the Comfort Women, the 200,000 Korean girls enslaved during the Second World War and the millions of Jews victimized at Auschwitz and other death camps. The list continues into far less notable, but equally devastating acts of evil known to man. "Never Forget" is our pledge to honor the dead by honoring the history that defined their lives.
Less than one week following the 13th anniversary remembering the September 11th attacks, many New Yorkers still possess a raw remembrance of that chilly Tuesday morning that chills our hearts. Since its opening last May, the 9/11 museum has attracted nearly one million visitors. It doesn't take advertisements on the MTA to convince people to remember 9/11 – they remember because the suffering remains so close.
Suffering: A Great Mystery
Suffering is itself a great mystery to humanity. No man, woman or child can escape the painful experience of suffering despite how desperately our culture attempts to escape its reach or subdue its effects through addictions and consumerism. St. John Paul II gave us a wealth of insight in his apostolic letter Salvifici Doloris, where he states, "Human suffering evokes compassion; it also evokes respect, and in its own way it intimidates" (4). The intimidation of suffering ought to remind us that sin is real, as damaging as ever, and continually calls for a society that unequivocally recognizes objective truth, a truth that judges personal actions and cultivates a well-formed conscience in its people. When as a society, we forget to acknowledge the reality of sin – whether personal sin or social sin – we simultaneously forget how the touch of sin victimizes others, and even ourselves.
St. John Paul II tells us that suffering evokes compassion. Since the horror caused by ISIS displaced over one million Iraqis amidst the persecution of religious minorities and in particular, Christians, the social conscience of the world has been disturbed. Our response to the person marginalized by the evil acts of another cannot suffice as merely a sympathetic sigh or a transitory sentiment of sorrow, while our lives continue as though the suffering of the marginalized person does not exist. Rather, suffering demands compassion, or better "co-passion" when the onlooker willingly becomes a partaker in the passio of the suffering Iraqi Christian woman or Yazidi child. Through prayer & fasting, remaining mindful of those suffering, and attempting to stop the cause of suffering with the means available to us, we are capable of responding compassionately.
Finally, St. John Paul II tells us that suffering evokes respect. A recent 20th century theologian, Johann Baptist Metz writes, "The essential dynamism of history is the memory of suffering as a negative awareness of the freedom that is to come, and as a stimulus to act within the horizon of this history in such a way as to overcome suffering." This understanding of suffering qualifies the phrase, "Never Forget": our remembrance of suffering conditions our actions so to never again recommit or allow such crimes. Never forgetting does not simply engage the mind, but engages both spiritual powers of the human person: mind and will.
Comfort Women
The respectful remembrance of suffering is an engaging, self-limiting remembrance that demands justice for the marginalized. One particular organization, the Harriet & Kenneth Kupferberg Holocaust Center, has sought to manifest this kind of remembrance of the greatest hate crime ever committed by modern civilization: the Holocaust. Under the direction of Dr. Arthur Flug, the Center has for seven years provided internships for dozens of students annually to study the Holocaust through interviewing survivors and re-telling their stories to our current generations of young people. In the last few years, the Center has undertaken an internship program directing students to encounter an oft-unnoticed group of survivors: Comfort Women.
Comfort women are those who in the 1930's were hopeful teenagers in Korea, but soon 200,000 were enslaved by the invading Japanese army and forced into sexual slavery. By the end of World War II, less than 100,000 of these women remained alive, and despite crying out to the world for justice, the crimes committed against them were denied or ignored. Now, more than 70 years later, fewer than 100 of these surviving women remain, some within the Korean community in Queens. The Harriet & Kenneth Kupferberg Holocaust Center has teamed up with this community and is having their student interns become first-hand witnesses of the stories told by Comfort Women survivors.
Students interested in this internship should visit the Center's website, and consider applying by following the instructions posted. Application deadline is September 26th 2014.
Suffering Answered
Our remembrance of those victimized by evil cannot, however, bring back the dead. The answer, we believe by faith, lies upon the now empty Cross of Jesus Christ. Yesterday, on the feast of the Exaltation of the Cross, we sang triumphantly for the victory won on the Cross. The Cross from which hung the "Suffering Servant", the crucified form of Jesus Christ, now exists as a sign of hope. For when we believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead, we also believe that the man, woman, and child victimized by evildoers shall also rise on the last day.

Some of them, sure, look like unobtainable items. But then again down at the bottom are the new rewards from last year's halloween, so what gives. Also many items that are from the same era as the aforementioned ones are properly on the API. As an example, there were three items you obtained consequently during the Southsun Cove intro:
First two are valid on the API, the last one isn't. You mean to tell me someone obtained the first two? Or the rest of my bank that's overflowing with ancient item from days long gone?
Map of Southsun Cove is obtained via a mail so its plausable that someone had it in their mail since then
We haven't had map tiles updated since PoF. Over 1 year ago.

The history of music in Iran can be divided into two main periods:
1. Pre-Islamic
2. Post-Islamic
"The history of Persian music dates back to the ancient times, and one cannot possibly conduct a research on it based on what one knows now, as it is intertwined with tales and myths of the old times, each more than thousands of years old. Thus, a systematic research cannot possibly be carried out as almost all documents related to Persian music have been destroyed due to numerous attacks and invasions of the land (The Roman invasion of Persia in 300 B.C., The Arab invasion, The Mongol invasion in 13th century, and The attack of the Afghans, to name a few)".
-Musique D'iran, Dariush Safvat & Nelly Caron, p. 28

Written in 2003, for the original iteration of the GBGB. The bakery no longer exists; the Subway closed after a fire earlier this year; and the Coffee Roaster's has moved down the street. But the flavor of Spring Street remains.
Forget TV. Williamstown's Spring Street provides a much better show. My perch is nestled between Zanna's and the Coffee Roasters, the nexus of important activity. Impatient husbands, sons and boyfriends wait on Zanna's steps. Their wives, daughters, and girlfriends browse. Walking in front of me, a college student tears off the heel of a fresh loaf of bread from the bakery and stuffs it in his girlfriend's mouth. Teenagers examine their tee shirts from Goff's. Women have hair cut and styled in the Clip Shop; half of them will give a final glance at themselves in the big windows as they leave the shop. A bride-to-be and her maids run across the street to a white stretch limo.
Meantime, in the coffee shop people of all ages and backgrounds chit chat as they await coffee, chai and sweet things. Outside on the sidewalk crumbs drop from pastries and croissants. Sparrows jostle each other for a taste. A fledgling wants mom to feed him. Williamstown Theater actors are frequently observed before noon on Sunday; they're always the pale ones. Olympia Dukakis, on more than one occasion, offers a friendly smile and hello. Others blab away on cell phones to their New York agents. Sounds like a new deal for the aging soap opera star.
Up the street a young blonde adjusts a strap in the art gallery window. Her parents are off to buy the New York Times. A family from Vermont argues about whether to eat Thai or Indian. A retired professor whizzes by on his scooter with his newspaper and coffee. Tennis camp brats rifle through bags of candy from the drug store. Local high school students noisily gather around Papa Charlie's and the Subway. Bikes carry helmeted parents and children down the road; their terrier sits in her wicker bike basket.
A tour bus ejects its contents at the foot of the street and dozens of couples traipse up one side of the street and down the other. I love answering questions. Where is the museum? You are looking for the Clark or the Williams College museum? Where is a good place to eat? What do you like to eat and how much do you want to spend? After I've carefully described the finer restaurant alternatives in town, the golden girls pick Subway.
I like watching people eat ice cream on a hot summer day. Vanilla with sprinkles running down a three-year-old's forearm. A Bostonian wedges her car into a parallel parking spot after others have tried and gave up. City drivers know how to park. Mr. New York sneaks into the No Parking Anytime spot and skitters off to the post office before it closes. He thinks the sign doesn't apply to tourists in a hurry. A Williamstown Police officer awaits, then kindly urges him to move. I hop on my bike and pedal home.

A United Nations deadline has expired for the Sudanese authorities to improve security in the troubled Darfur region.
The UN Security Council will meet on Thursday to discuss whether to take action against the Sudanese government.
Eight Sudanese aid workers are reported to have been kidnapped in Darfur.
The UN threatened action if Sudan did not take steps by 30 August to improve the security situation in the western region of Darfur and to rein in the militias, blamed for killing civilians.
Will the peace talks bring progress? If they fail, should the UN impose sanctions? What should the UN's response be to the expired deadline? Send us your views.
This debate is now closed. Thank you for your comments.
Your comments:
The separation of Darfur is, by history, not negotiable. More political pressures on the government might be fruitful. The government has to pay back for its policies of deliberately neglecting the situation. Forawi, Khartoum, Sudan
Well deadline is here, so what now? Talk again and let people die, or tell the Armies to back off while a UN force goes in to feed the poor innocents that are dying? A 3 month old baby MUST have rightsMaria Daniels, Germany
This is a great test for the African Union to show that it is serious with its plan of intervening militarily in situations like Darfur, Sudan. Little Rwanda is willing and big Nigeria is able. Where is the great nation of South Africa? Oh, how the mighty forget the past?kabajo Nsubuga, Kyaggwe, Uganda
What bothers me about Darfur is the nonchalant attitude of African leaders. African leaders should have in mind that what these innocent civilians are experiencing at the hands of the Sudanese government-sponsored militia can only embolden them to more arrogance and disregard for the rule of law.Edem Edem, Calabar, Nigeria
I'm a little bewildered by the suggestions here that inaction on Sudan is because it has "no oil". In fact Sudan has a great deal of oil, as France, China and various other countries know very well, having lucrative oil contracts with the Khartoum government. As France is deeply involved with Sudan, perhaps it would like to do something to stop the genocide, instead of waiting for the US and UK to do so (and then, of course, berating us for it)?Frank Harrison, UK
Imposing sanctions alone will take a long time to show fruitful results or bring the genocide to an end. The international community should realise that this is a clear case requiring full military intervention and the UN must act swiftly by sending peacekeeping troops. The pressure being put on the Khartoum government is not enough to force Sudan to stop killing its own people. This is a very irresponsible government which cannot understand any language apart from force. The deadline for imposing sanctions has been too long and we don't expect it to be extended. Peoples lives are being lost and we need action now!Gustaff Chikasema, Windhoek, Namibia
That sanctions would even be proposed as a viable option is a disgrace. How many times must they fail before we get over it? All the time wasted discussing them allows more suffering and deaths. There are no do-overs for the people of Darfur... we cannot get this time back though we will wish we could!!!LR, USA
The United Nations, and all European countries, along with the African Union, should make a strong effort to deploy an international force , to restore the law and order, and at the same time assure that aid is arriving to the refugees camps. Once the law and order are fully restored, then we need to rebuild the country, under a multinational force. It is a question of dignity, because otherwise a lot of people are going to starve.Andrés Joven Rivero, Alcañiz, Teruel Spain
The world has learnt nothing from the Rwanda crisis. During the build up to the Iraq war there were many debates about whether or not the UN was irrelevant. Sudan, Rwanda, Cambodia etc. all prove that the UN is not only irrelevant but also arrogant. While the UN decides if Sudan has complied, people die.Matthew, Amsterdam
The time for talk is over. The international community should respond immediately. The way to stop genocide is to kill or capture those committing it. Let us not stand idly by while millions perish. The US and other nations have it within their power to stop the suffering. How many more must die before something is done?Tyler, San Diego, USA
Day by day, as this crisis progresses, what is left of the UN's relevance and purpose is fading away. All UN members, in particular Security Council members, should feel ashamed of their inaction. Remember that the UN only has the resources that its members provide.Richard Read, London, UK
The lack of knowledge in many of these comments about the situation in Darfur is astounding. Comments about the lack of oil are plain wrong. There is plenty of oil in Sudan. The oil is extracted by a Malaysian/Chinese/Sudanese consortium and is the main source of funding for the Government of Sudan (GoS) wars against the southerners and Darfurians. Religion is another confused issue. The Darfur conflict is not about religion, both sides are Muslim. It is more of a culture clash between Nomadic Pastoralists and Settled Agriculturists. Furthermore, the peace deal in the South is one of the problems in Sudan not a full solution. It is not a comprehensive peace deal. Rather it is an agreement between two factions, the GoS and the SPLA. It marginalises many other interested parties and partly explains the rebellion in Darfur. The Darfurians did not get any benefit from the peace deal and saw that armed action could bring results. For a knowledgeable insight into the Darfur situation try the International Crisis Group's website at www.crisisweb.org Ed Morgan, London, UK
As I read daily of the horrible situation with these wonderful people, I am amazed at the lack of outcry from the rest of the world. Does the global population depend really on the USA and our allies to be the world police? When my country intervenes, we are bad. When my country does not, we are bad. Although I do not speak for my country (the government has NEVER asked my opinion on world affairs), I am ashamed to admit that Sudan's lack of oil makes them a 'second class" people without value! My heart goes out to them and their children.Russ, Denver, USA
If another 'Rwanda' happens, then the UN can kiss goodbye to what's left of it's credibility.Gerry Noble, Salisbury, UK
Instead of threatening an already poor country with sanction, perhaps Tony Blair should fulfil his promise to Africa and help by spending money towards solving the problem which is over limited resources and has nothing to do with race. All Sudanese are Africans. Stop playing politics.Yahya Farah, Abu Dhabi
No oil, no international aid. I would send in the UN troops to protect the people affected but then Bair and Bush etc don't see pound signs so it won't happen. And can we not send Jack Straw anywhere again as the man is an joke.Bruce Hosie, Dundee, Scotland
The UN should have done something six months ago, not wait until 50,000 are dead. As usual the UN, under the worst leader for years, delays everything. They are always reluctant to criticise there own, i.e. Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone. Get in there and sort it out, I always thought that's what the UN was for.Lester Stenner, Weston super Mare UK
If Bush and Blair are re-elected they should look at the limping dog UN.Gilbert White, London UK
What makes the Darfur refugees so different from the Palestinians? In one case the US thinks that it is important that it should be made safe for the refugees to return to their land. In the other the US thinks that it is important that the refugees be prevented from going home. Am I missing something or is this the usual US hypocrisy? Darfur would be easier to resolve if their was consistency in enforcing international law rather than subjecting the world to American whims.John, Hemel Hempstead, Herts
I do not know what more international community and AU are waiting for? Basir said his government does not support the janjaweed but when threatened, he calls up the same janjaweed to take up arms against any foreign force the steps on the Sudan soil. Is this not a grandpa fox? How long do you want to wait?Hassan Gale, Arua
When will we learn that managing a crisis by intervening in the early stages with overwhelming force is much cheaper than waiting for the crisis to develop into an unmanageable mess and then committing forces piecemeal? Let's put a peacekeeping force on the ground: too much irreparable damage has already been done and the inability of the Sudanese government to act on it is now evident to everyone. Let African forces deploy with international support. Jean-Marc Liotier, Paris, France
The UN should not be fooled by the Abuja talks; the government of Sudan has attended those talks only because they are afraid of the Security Council action. What was agreed at the UN should be implemented if the international community stays and watch the people die like that then the UN has no meaning to the people. If we don't act now then the image of the UN will continue diminishing Titus .H. Divala, Blantyre, Malawi
Where is the outrage from the Arab World about this crisis that is happening within its midst?Michael S., Boston, USA
It is rather sad to see how selfish and irresponsible some of our African leaders could be. Do we need the West to tell us how to protect the poor and helpless in our countries? This is not African. Wake up African leaders this is very shameful.Mike, Toronto, Canada
If the world community is to intervene, I say this: Mediate from a position of strength. That means the UN, if they do anything, cannot rely upon tactics that leave soldiers guarding a convoy with no live ammo, or rules of engagement so constraining that they might as well. I think one negotiates in much better faith with a man that has a big, bristling, angry dog on a leash than a cute floppy eared puppy.
The reports and graphic scenes that we see each day are indeed appalling and gut-sickening. Africa is littered with such suffering. The question is, where are the African leaders? What is the African Union doing? What about the peer review, a cornerstone of Nepad? Why should we wait for the west to solve our self inflicted problems? The current crop of leaders in Africa is wholly to blame for plunging the continent into a spiral of gloom and doom. The Khartoum government should not escape this one, and for God's sake China must not remorse in the council by not siding with rogue regime, as has become its policy.Paul, Harare, Zimbabwe (currently in Japan)
Easy? Find oil and then Bush and Blair can unleash another 'humanitarian' mission!bert, London
When the US intervenes, the world is up in arms. When it doesn't millions of innocents die. Who wants to be the only superpower anyway?Mark, USA
How could the EU have allowed this to happen? I am appalled!Michael, USA
Real cost effective peace in the Darfur region will come when both Government and Rebel parties will set aside their selfish interest, greed, pride and indifference attitude towards honestly and diplomatically feeling the self inflicted and dilapidating plight of their dying brother and sisters in their country.Gabriel Basil, plateau state, Nigeria
Action is needed now - talking plays into the hands of this genocidial regime. It has been months already. Whatever the government may have thought about the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, a separate case can always be made for the humanitarian need to intervene. The humanitarian disaster in Darfur is much more immediate, and at least equals the one in Iraq. It is also argued that failed states breed terrorism. As part of George Bush's War on Terror, surely he should be winning hearts and minds in Darfur.Gavin, Newport, Wales
This is a no win situation. The U.N. cannot stop the violence. Even if force were approved, who would send it. Darfur is a huge region. The force sent would also have to be large. Sanctions will not work. How can sanctions materially impact people like the Janjaweed who still conduct business from horseback. The world will scream and nothing will be done.Chris, LA, USA
Sending a peace keeping force with social and medical logist support for the force and the people remember the UN is for the people by the people of the people. Don't back troops and groups. Help and support the people because we are the world and UNEyeswamuy, Chennai India
Maybe if the U.N. spent more time on Sudan than on Israel building a few houses or a fence it would be an effective organization. Muslim countries have turned the U.N. into there proxy and its starting to show. These countries can criticise Israel by day and ignore a crises 100 times worse by night! Nothing has ever been more blatant than this!Joey, Washington D.C.
I would say AU countries must take action before the United Nations. C/Qaadir Maxamed Nuunow, Bosaso /Somalia
Creation of two states is the only solution to the Darfur people. The Muslim north can go there way while the Christian south (Darfur) can govern themselves.
Vincent Duruji,
Madrid, España
I cannot understand why other African states, especially members of the AU are dilly-dallying about military intervention in Sudan. The unfortunate delay signifies the hypocrisy of African government, especially the Arab states.
Abdulrahman Abdulyekeen,
The international community should do more to stop this problem. If they fail, its like they do not have this continent at heart Florence, Philippines
A visit by prominent figures was a nice but useless thing. The UN must act immediately by sending peacekeeping forces to Darfur. The presence of blue helmets would prove to be a more sufficient solution than sanctions. Sanctions will only have an effect on those who are suffering already, while those are responsible for the current situation will continue to carry on with their privileged life. Generally speaking sanction is no longer a dissuasive force, especially since global moral is far lower comparing to the times when it was invented.Mary McCannon, Budapest, Hungary
What is needed first and foremost in Darfur is the International Community to take responsibility and stop selling the bogus argument of "African solutions for African problems". It will cost less for the Security Council to declare genocide and war crimes in Darfur and take appropriate law and enforceable actions to protect humanity than to raise money for emergency relief supplies. Kehleboe Gongloe, Darby, USA
The problem in Darfur is the indiscriminate targeting of law abiding citizens by the anti-Khartoum militia supported by Yoweri Museveni's Uganda government. In a way the western governments especially the UK is to blame as its military assistance to Uganda inevitably finds its way to the anti-Khartoum militia. Sudan government cannot be expected to stand idly by while a whole chunk of its territory is in danger from this threat. So the solution for stopping the crisis is for the UK to stop arming the Uganda government and the war will stop forthwith.Charles Otto, UK
An African Union military force should be mobilized with the logistical support and financing of western counties, to go into Darfur, suppress the Janjaweed and restore the refuges to their homes. Then the refugees should be allowed to sell their beautiful hand-woven fabrics and tapestries on the world market. They could derive substantial income that would help toward rebuilding their lives. Andrew Walden, Hilo, Hawaii, USA
I find it pathetic that the we can send troops to places like Bosnia, Iraq, Lebanon, etc., to keep the peace but when it comes to place that is clearly committing genocide, the world, despite all it professes, just sits back and lets it happen.Scott, Omaha, NE
Don't make these camps permanent homes, much as security within the camp is paramount, there should be a greater effort to return these people back to their homes!Aliker, London, UK
The US/UK will never be able to help in this crisis. In terms of aid, the US and the UK are at their limits. Other states have to do more before they can contribute more. In terms of sending peacekeepers, nobody wants to see US or British troops on any foreign soil, irrelevant of intentions. It's time people threw their anti-US/UK agendas in order to stop the genocide.Ewan, Aberdeen, Scotland
If the people in Darfur were smart, they would have put out a press release stating that their region was sitting on a, just discovered vast oil reserve. Bush and Cheney would have landed the Marines there the next day.Scott Peck, Tucson, AZ
The Sudanese government should allow the deployment of AU peacekeepers and it should show a real commitment to the issue of ending the Darfur crisis.Msungane Kaimila, Blantyre, Malawi
It appears that the UN again is not an effective organisation when it comes to quickly and decisively ending brutal killings. The African Union may have a better chance as it is an African organisation, which means that if they come up with an action plan, less interests of less nations on this planet are at stake. So please let us all support the AU!! Quick decisive action is needed against any government allowing its own people to be killed!!Korneel Luth, Baarn, Holland
I find it concerning that the UN have failed to recognise the conflict in Sudan as a clear case of genocide. If the UN accepts that genocide is occurring, it is legally obliged to take action to stop it. Kofi Annan and Colin Powell said there was a "humanitarian catastrophe" in Darfur but said there was not yet enough evidence to call it a genocide. Elizabeth Rodgers, UK
Well here we go again. Did we not learn from what happened in Rwanda with the conflict between the Tutsis and the Hutus? The world sat on the sidelines and witnessed the genocide of hundreds of thousand innocent people. If not for a few brave UN peacekeepers, I fear what the true outcome would have been. Being a big Clinton fan, I must admit this was one of his many foreign policy failures that he has chalked up during his administration. If the modern world cannot learn from its mistakes, I fear for the future of mankind.Robert Payne, Philadelphia, PA, USA
The world community has a duty to alleviate the abject suffering of the displaced people in Darfur. The Sudan government is procrastinating and should be cajoled into creating the right climate for the safe return of refugees home. The rebels should be forcibly disarmed and peace talks should be convened without delay with the auspices of the United Nations. Even if we are clutching at straws, we should exhaust every avenue to bring sanity to this troubled region. Peace should be given a chance however slim!Pancha Chandra, Brussels, Belgium
The hypocrisy of the Muslim world is apparent in the Darfur case. If the Sudanese Government were Christian and the Darfur people Muslim, the Muslim world would claim that it was oppression of Islam; and you would have jihad volunteers from over the world going to fight in the Sudan. Now that it is Muslims against Muslims, the OIC, Arab League and their supporters say it is an internal affair. Marcus Wleh, Tehran, Iran
Words and paper can hold a lot. Actions instead of helpless meetings are needed. Be careful though with what is done, because it can make things even worse than they are now, if the course of action is to take matters in even more aggressive ways.Claudia, Guatemala City, Guatemala
Any country which wilfully kills or allows the killing of an entire ethnic group should simply be invaded by the outside world and its government overthrown. The international community should spare the niceties of needing to be invited by Sudan to stop ethnic cleansing and genocide and just do it if Sudan isn't willing to take clear and decisive action. Craig, Seattle, USA
The Sudanese people are the ones who will be hit hard by any sanctions, and that in my opinion would increase the hate levels toward Darfur people in all parts of Sudan. We don't support the government but we don't think the rebels' policy of trading abroad with the suffering of their own people and their calls for sanctions against Sudan will bring peace to their region. And we shouldn't forget the fact that the rebels are the ones who started the security problems in Darfur by attacking police stations, airports and local government buildings. All the militia in Darfur should be disarmed including Darfur rebels not only the Janjaweed.Bara, Khartoum, Sudan
What is needed is to press more and more on Sudanese government to arrest Janjaweeds and to get the African peace keepers in. Otherwise, you'll give the Sudanese government more time to buy and more time to lie!Alassan Jallow, Msaken, Tunisia
To those who say we should ignore the crisis unfolding in Darfur because it isn't our problem, I say that is a disgusting viewpoint to take. Western countries are the only ones with the economic and military clout to make the Sudanese regime change its policies by using coercive diplomacy. We have the power to stop genocide from occurring, no-one else. To sit by and let it happen would be extremely shameful. When Europe said "never again" to letting genocide happen, we didn't put geographical limits on that promise!Chris, London, UK
First of all, we need to get rid of the senselessly bloodstained dictatorship in Khartoum before we ever can see something go well there. We need to have a lot tougher stance against criminal dictatorships, while they are committing such crimes against humanity as in Darfur.Jan Andersson, Stockholm, Sweden
I am in support of a UN deadline 100%.Sokes Iliya, Jos, Nigeria
It is high time serious steps should be taken against Sudan. Deadline or not, foreign and African troops should be allowed to rein-in the Janjaweed militia that is causing mayhem in Darfur. The AU and the UN should act now and fast before things get alarmingly worse. Adetunji Olumide, Ibadan, Nigeria
As far as the US is concerned, since we did not substantially intervene in Liberia there is no way we should intervene in Darfur. Let the rest of the world sort it out. Victor, Ohio, USA
It saddens me greatly that we (the US and Europe) just watch this atrocity and try to do what is politically correct. What about morals and dealing with human life that is valuable? I am sure if many politicians were in a less comfortable situation and were not making decisions from afar action would be taken immediately! Annette, California, USA
The refugees from Darfur must feel let down by their government and other governments. Only the Sudanese government in Khartoum have the right to act now, the international community is too late for action; it's all very well everyone going to Abuja to talk - pressing for action from Khartoum would be more constructive.Jack, London
With France and China having lucrative oil contracts with Khartoum, I am sure that the security council will remain paralyzed and no action will ever be taken to halt the ethnic cleansing. I am not too surprised about China, but France has been especially vocal lately about morality and wars over resources - surely they would support sanctions or other measures to pressure Sudan, whatever the consequences to their oil interests? I would like to see if they can "walk the walk" rather than just "talk the talk".Tim, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I believe the outcome of the human rights groups' assessment of the situation in Darfur should initially motivate the international communities response strategy. If the human rights groups are then given the freedom to continuously inspect conditions in the camps in Darfur right up until this dispute is resolved then I feel that talk will still have a better outcome than war. But if the Sudanese government interferes aggressively with the human rights inspectors when they arrive in Sudan and then prevents further inspections, then much tougher measures will need to be taken by the international community to prevent a possible genocide taking place in Darfur.
I see the peace talks as a promising start but will only lead to a long-term peace if the talks persuade the Sudanese government to act effectively in disbanding the Arab Janjaweed militias. If it turns out that the Sudanese government has not enough influence on the Arab Janjaweed militias to disband them then Darfur is in a state of anarchy. It is outside the control of the Sudanese government and the international community will need to intervene to support a return to stable governance in the region of Darfur. If the Sudanese government refuse to disband the militias then again the international community will have no choice but to intervene in Darfur and may even be forced to engage with Sudanese government forces in some kind of military action. Anonymous, Edinburgh, Scotland
Just threaten to stop the oil leaving Port Sudan. Heglig oil field produces 300,000 Barrels a day at $45 per barrel. The expenses for production is the same as it was 6/12 months ago - The Sudanese/Chinese/Indian/Malaysian oil consortium, that runs the field, could pay for any aid out of their back pocket!!Leightonn Northover, Wales, UK
People turned to the UN when the subject was Iraq. Where is the UN now with Darfur? Military intervention is the only way to stop this ethnic cleansing; not endless resolutions.Theodore Bell, Staffordshire, UK
Sudan has oil and plenty of it. This is the single most significant fact when considering this issue. The Sudanese government in Khartoum is not one in favour with Washington. Whereas the Sudanese People's Liberation Army (SPLA) - one of the so called rebel groups - is backed by the US. China is involved with a consortium developing Sudan's oil. China very much needs to cultivate sources of supply outside of US control. The US seeks to thwart such plans. Keeping China (along with the European Union and Japan) dependent on the US for access to oil, is one way of ensuring US primacy remains unchallenged. Is it any wonder then that China is reluctant to approve a proposed UN Security Council Resolution imposing sanctions on Sudan?Garrett Cooke, Sandhurst, Berkshire
So there is talk of imposing economic sanctions on Sudan. Are we to believe any of this will make any difference at all? Certainly not! Sudan has a healthy black market and any sanctions would only further hurt those already suffering from the ills inflicted on them by this recent, turbulent period of unrest.
Diplomatic short-comings aside, and I am no expert in economics, but surely there must be a better way to bring these people out of the autocratic, draconian and feudal mentality and into something resembling democracy, even if it means cutting a few corners.Wayne Smallman, England (UK)
When the very first images of mothers holding their dying children appeared, the world should have jumped into action. The only thing diplomacy and deadlines have created so far is the chance for the Arab settlers to make the land they've stolen their own. Already they are settling in the burned out villages, tilling and sowing the fields that once belonged to the black Darfur locals. If anyone finally does get their act together - and there are any refugees left - there will not be a home to return to. The UN should burn with shame over not acting sooner - and should stop pretending they are a UNITED NATIONS if they can't find a way to protect the 1.2 million unarmed refugees that continue to be harassed and raped as their children slowly starve to death.LJ, Florida, USA
I tend to agree that the Blacks in Darfur are seeking independence from Arab Sudan. To this end they justifiably use the true atrocities the Arabs commit against them to advance their ultimate goal. How we as Arabs can blame them for this? After all we support such Arab demands in other regions, the most notable being Arafat.Jamil Baroody, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
I know this sounds harsh but why is it always our problem? Don't we have enough going on at the moment without sticking our noses into more trouble? Who appointed us saviours of everybody else?Craig, Preston, UK
The Sudan North/South war has existed for 50 years. It's been partially solved because of oil money. This is not only an African situation created by Europe. The only way of solving this and many other problems in Africa today, and soon Asia and South America is to decide how Indigenous societies can live with the concept of nation states (and how we in the West can look at any of their natural resources that they may have to bring benefits).Mick, France
This is a complex issue. On the one hand these people need help - and we have a Brigade prepared to fly out there. On the other, though, there is a conflict like this almost constantly going on in Africa. They wanted freedom - can't they take responsibility?Iain Howe, Amsterdam, Netherlands
The crimes of Milosevic and Radovan Kradic had not finished until Nato had taken military actions against them. Sudan is the same as only actions could gain peace!Gomoss, Khartoum
Yet another foreign mess that we have to clear up. Our tax-pound won't stretch indefinitely!Rob Watson, Winchester, Hampshire
The war is far from over for now. The peacekeepers may cool things but the attacks will just shift later maybe to another side. When the Khartoum government is even getting new fighters instead of channelling resources to other areas, they don't even want the African peacekeepers. Peace is far from reality. It'll only come after the Sudanese government get the push from Saudi Arabia. Alex Mugendi, Nairobi, Kenya
In my opinion I think that the relevant issue right now is to provide medical care and food for refugees because starvation and disease are becoming more lethal for citizens than the armed conflict. Moreover it's important that The United Nations gives special protection for refugees against the atrocities of the Janjaweed militia.Andrea Camacho, Colombia
There was another Have Your Say discussion about slavery, which everyone rightly decried. Today in the Sudan there is slavery and genocide, yet all of the countries who supposedly deplore slavery and genocide sit idly by and do nothing. The disaster in the Sudan yet again reveals the hypocrisy, incompetence and moral cowardice of the UN. Robert, Strawberry Plains, TN, USA
This kind of behaviour has been going on in Sudan for decades. In the eighties and nineties it was in the south of the country. I lived and worked in Nayala in the eighties and there was an obvious divide between the black Africans and Arabs, the Arabs holding power and subjugating the black Africans. The Saudi Arabians have a lot to be ashamed of as they pour millions of pounds into Sudan to support a racist regime. Until the Saudis are prepared to use their muscle in this conflict, nothing will change and I can't see them doing anything. Nick B, Guildford England
While a small-scale military intervention would be justified in this case (let's face it, the government of Sudan probably doesn't control the militias any more than Sadr controls the Iraqi resistants), the sad reality is that unlike in Iraq, there is nothing in it for the Western powers. The Sudanese can die and Straw's little 'show' visits will make no difference. Tarik, Bristol, UK
The talks will not succeed because Sudan still undermines the powers of the African Union and the fact that it protests against the presence of African peacekeepers just complicates the situation. Sudan has a record of oppressing Sudanese Africans and favouring Arabs.Joshua, Kampala, Uganda
Africa has always been a stage for one form of crisis or the other. All fuelled by the selfish interests of most parties involved. There are always a set of crisis resolution meetings which seem to solve the problem but as always the conflict resumes all over again. Alas, events following the meeting in Abuja will be no different. Seun a, Lagos, Nigeria
Chat, chat, talk, talk, promise, promise. Still hundreds of innocent people a day are dying of starvation and disease. Get a force in there and feed them. NowGlenn Wornell, Frankfurt, Germany
It is obvious that people in this region of the world are still living in a time where violence prevails. Day to day dilemmas are solved by the use of militia men supporting their own cause with weapons and not talk. As a developed country the UK coupled with the rest of the UN has a duty to give countries such as the Sudan the chance to resolve this problem by talking. This chance has been and gone and now it is time for the rest of the world to realise that strong ultimatums backed by the entire multinational community are what stops dictatorial governments such as the Sudanese (and Iraqi). If the international community would have all had the iron fist towards Saddam, like Bush and Blair, then the Iraqi conflict could have been solved a whole lot more easily.Ross Mcneilly, Loughborough
It is plain clear that the Khartoum government is behind the genocide. Why is the international community not moving fast enough to take measures like happened in Kosovo - a full scale military intervention?Kashasha, Tanzania
The answer to Africa's problems lies within Africa. Africa has the manpower for the creation of an African force which should be deployed days in a region of conflict. Outside intervention will not work. Incentives should be given to contribute freely for troops so that they can be deployed to hotspots instead of waiting for allies or UN, who at past times have proven to be ineffectual. Leaders in Africa should take more steps because Africa's problems affect all of them as well. By the time the world decide that it is genocide it is already too late and countless people are being killed.John, Canada
I am all in favour of leaving countries to sort out their own problems when the problems are things like university funding and farming. But when a government allows its people to die then it loses any right to be sovereign. We have an army; we should use it to save lives. Britain particularly has a responsibility as the previous colonial power that helped create the Arab/Black problems.Luke Magee, UK
More talks? You have got to be kidding me!? There comes a time for action and that time has come and gone. The UN and its supporters around the world deserve its shame for their fear of any action!Craig Traylor, Texas, USA
I think the peace talks have a much higher probability of succeeding than previous rounds in July - simply because the stakes now are much higher - and what both parties are playing for is much different. Darfur has garnered a great deal of international interest and the plight of hundreds of thousands that have been systematically targeted can no longer be ignored. The SLM/A and JEM have achieved international recognition for their agendas and discourse. Now both sides have developed bargaining positions and they will cut a deal!Naya, Khartoum, Sudan
There is one possible negotiated solution but Western values would never allow it to happen: Volunteer countries could allow the Darfur refugees to immigrate and the UN could help foot the bill for caring for them until such time as they can establish themselves. If you remove the unwanted Africans, the Arabs in Sudan could accomplish their ethnic cleansing without killing them. Of course some people in Darfur would refuse to leave their home but at least they would have had the option of escape. Again, I realize that aiding in ethnic cleansing through relocation goes against our alleged principles. But I have to question the sense of that when we apparently find genocide enough of a moral ambiguity as to refuse the people of Darfur physical protection. Relocation should be preferable to death.Anthony, USA
Yes, peace can come to Darfur. Let the two sides be made to sit comfortably round a table in a balanced psychological state of mind. Then let there be a video played of their atrocities and let them imagine themselves as the victims of their own atrocities. Only then can they decide whether to continue fighting or not. Then we can talk peace.Ifeanyi Obayi, Enugu
I think the situation in Sudan should not be strange to those who are aware of all sorts of conflicts around the world. It is just sad that there does not seem to be an end to the conflict and the saddest thing is that defenceless folks are being perished at the moment. I don't want to be a pessimist, but I do not think this meeting in Nigeria will avail the conflict. I am sure the Sudanese government has agreed to it so as to delay impending US's desire for sanctions against them. The conflict was not and is not sporadic... it has been pre-planned. The goal is to wipe out or displace the indigenes of Darfur and reclaim the land for themselves. It is basically a fight for survival and domination.
And I am afraid that this will not be the last time we will hear of such conflicts in Africa or in other places where resources are scarce. The only way to completely settle this never ending conflict all over Sudan is do what was done in old Yugoslavia... divide the country and let borders be defined. These people just cannot live together. Let's face it. Emmanuel A, Canada/Nigeria
I believe sending peacekeeping forces to Darfur is the only solution to stop killings innocent people of Darfur.Peter Tuach, USA
Why are African leaders waiting for Mr Straw to fly in peace to our Darfur region? The answer is obvious. Some African leaders intentionally refused to arrest these cases and bring to justice those responsible because of three reasons: 1. It is not their concern since it is not their people affected (like they can make a difference if in their backyard) 2. They have some level of participation in these great catastrophes in terms of finance. 3. They are not just ready to see peace through on the continent and in the world. The International Community needs to use sanctions if that is what will bring peace to the suffering people of Sudan. Joseph Yarsiah, Monrovia, Liberia
Western leaders can push Sudan's government to stop the conflict. However, peace comes from inside not from outside. As we have seen over the period, Sudan's government does not want to stop the conflict. Therefore I'm very sceptical if these peace-talks will be successful. Nevertheless, it is important that the western world reacts to this crisis and does not ignore it.Alzbeta Stastna, Czech Republic
I find it appalling that we are taking so long to intervene. Just how many have to die before we do anything?Fabian, UK
There is no magic wand meeting which will resolve the crisis. What's driving the crisis is the exploitation of the people by a corrupt government driven by external forces (mostly multinational company-driven Western governments). The only way to resolve this is for the UN to freeze external interests and distribute aid so that people can recover. In the meanwhile, the UN must also look at where the national wealth is being siphoned off and put a stop to the drainage of national resources which is the cause of this distress. It's not that they don't have anything - it's simply that it's all been cornered by the rich and powerful.Anonymous, London, UK
Pressure should be maintained both on the rebels and the Khartoum government so that both sides realise that an imminent end must be put to the refugees' suffering. It looks like the rebels are manipulating the world attention moved by the plight of thousands of displaced Darfurians to gain political recognition and status. The goal should be clear: to end the suffering. And the repercussions on both sides if they fail to do should also be clear.Assad El-Sawey, Cairo, Egypt
I've come to the conclusion that social progress is part of the process of evolution, and no amount of interference will change it. A few hundred years ago, Europeans were doing appalling things to their own people. We evolved, and now we don't do it anymore. Developing nations similarly have to evolve. Yes, we have learned, and want to share our experience. But we can no more tell these nations not to slaughter one another than we can tell our teenaged children not to drive fast, drink, take drugs ... They simply don't want to hear it. They have to discover what is right for themselves. It's dreadful, but it is going to keep happening, and all we can do is wring our hands.Sue, UK
This is the most incredible waste of British resources. Why are we pumping hundreds of millions of pounds of British taxpayers' money into it? Our money should be used to look after our own desperately poor elderly, homeless and sink-estate poor. Mark Berridge, UK
Unfortunately the only way the people of Darfur can be protected will be by the deployment of a UN backed military force to prevent further violence by the Arab militia. One must not forget that this is yet another conflict born out of the desire of the Sudanese government to impose their Islamic regime on the whole of the country. John, Birmingham, UK
As a former refugee from the Sudan, I look at what is happening in the country with sadness but no shock. It is clear that the Arabs in their desire to maintain a geographically unified Arab world do not mind the sacrifice of a "few". Meanwhile, the US fearing another "Iraq" has agreed to limit its role to threatening sanctions, while Europe in an attempt to appease its local Arab population has chosen the comfortable position of soft condemnation of the Sudan.Martin, Toronto, Canada
Well we heard it in the first Gulf War and to a lesser extent in regards to Iraq today...International Law. So whilst we promote good governance and democracy by going in guns blazing (with UN blessing) why are we not doing similar or the same in the Sudan? It might not necessarily be the best option but it would be the least hypocritical. Have we not learnt from Rwanda '94?Brett Sargent, Sydney, Australia
The United Nations as the world's only international peacekeeper should not rely on any country for contribution to international peacekeeping but rather be allowed to form its own armed forces to deal with international crises, an army well trained and equipped to stand up for any challenges the world may encounter.William, Brussels, Belgium

The Real Estate Mullumbimby is one where a successful investment is always to be found; somewhere among the foreclosure lists or lying inactive on your home agent's desk. This guide is designed to give you the background necessary to allow you to identify successful investment real estate.
The first key to benefiting from real estate's is to choose a highly inspired and capable seller. The idea is that to settle for less money on a piece of real estate requires the seller to want to sell their house quickly or seriously. If you are talking to an uninspired seller on the telephone then it will soon be very clear that you are not going to get an adjusted cost on this real estate. If the seller is uninspired then you will be unable to settle a profitable deal.
- Real Property Investment strategies are Less Risky
As compared to other investments, less of misadventure is involved in a real-estate property. I will not get away from the proven reality that just likes any investment you make; you have the risk of losing it. Investments in Real Estate Mullumbimby are typically considered a constant and rich gainer, provided if one takes it seriously and with complete sagacity.
The reasons for the real estate investments becoming less dangerous experience primarily correspond with various socio-economic factors, location, industry behaviour, the population density of an area; home loan interest rate stability; excellent history of land admiration, less of rising prices and much more.
As a principle, if you have a regional place where there are plenty of resources available and low constant home loan rates, you have a valid reason for investing in the real estate industry of such a region. On the contrary, if you have the apartment in a place, which is growing under the top rising prices, it is far-fetched to even think of investing in real estate industry.
- Not a moment taking Adventure
Real estate investment will not take out all your efforts until you are and foresighted to take the sport arrived. You can save a terrible lot of your energy, if you are cautious enough to know the techniques of making a careful investment in the right Real Estate Mullumbimby and when there are perfect industry conditions existing at that point of your energy.
You should expect to time yourself. Take a while out, and do research the marketplace. Start small activities which involve discussing real estate offers, buying your home, managing it and then selling it off. Determine plenty of time spent in your home discussion. If it was less than a local plumber, you have done it right. And if you end up making an investment a longer period, then you need to work it out again and earn some real modification for consummating next offers. You have various ways and strategies, called the Real Estate Strategies that can get it done for you in the right manner.

Section 523(a)(8) of the Bankruptcy Code states that student loans are not dischargeable in bankruptcy. In 2000, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals held that unpaid tuition does not constitute a student loan. In a recently released case, Bankruptcy Judge Carl L. Bucki of Buffalo ruled that changes in the bankruptcy code in 2005 did not alter the results of the earlier Second Circuit case.
AP's in Rochester Way Way Way Down
Four years ago, I reported that bankruptcy lawsuits (known as 'adversary proceedings' or 'APs') in the Rochester Bankruptcy Court in 2010 were down by one third from the previous year. The average number of APs filed 2007 to 2010 in Rochester was 113 per year (not including clusters of APs related to one particular complicated chapter 11 case). In 2010 the number dropped to 67.

You know, sometimes I look at my little spreadsheet full of music to review and begin to wonder how on earth January became so big. We are now in the month of March and I am STILL posting reviews for music that was released at the start of 2015. Luckily the music still left to check out from January is pretty good, and I'm sure there's going to be a few gems hidden in there, including Dollars For Thieves, the new EP from Brooklyn singer-songwriter Erica Glyn. If you like women with guitars and a slight case of insanity, then you should definitely hop on this bandwagon.
Lead single All Just For You kicks off the EP with a slow paced bassline that is so thick and dominating that it immediately grabs the attention. Erica fills this intro with an array of astronomical background noises and the slight echoes of guitars, before letting rip with the occasional burst of riff, converting this beginning into a badass "could be in a Tarantino film" kinda track. Erica's vocals are on point and definitely help create this moody allure that the instrumentation has produced, allowing the big booming finale of huge riffs, lead licks and thumping drums to sound simply cool as hell. A great start to the EP.
Wanting and Wanting cements the EP's excellence by cutting another solid performance in the middle of the tracklisting. Heavily reverberated guitars scatter across the airwaves against a stark drum beat while Erica's vocals do the duty of delivering the hooks, and it all works really well. The drums really come to life in this track, developing and producing a section towards the end that showcases them in such a way it could make James Murphy cry. It's awesome.
Our personal highlight has to be The Killing Moon, already armed with a great title, this track takes all of the eccentricities we've heard from Dollars For Thieves thus far and produces something that tugs at the heartstrings. Each of the instruments contribute a sound that's just beautiful, and the reverb sounds natural enough for it to create an atmosphere that really envelops you; it's wonderful.
Dollars For Thieves is a fantastic EP from Erica Glyn. It offers a great tale of progression as it comes out swinging with its opening track but eventually relaxes and reveals its true personality. There's vulnerability, there's heartfelt emotion inside and against the ballsy instrumentation it creates this revelation that it's okay to be a little bit glum sometimes. It's awesome. I absolutely love this EP, and will certainly be listening to it over and over again.
