DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Gulf Arab states with sharply contrasting views on Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood on Thursday acknowledged the country's new military-led government after the ouster of President Mohammed Morsi.
The United Arab Emirates, one of the Arab world's most outspoken critics of the Muslim Brotherhood, noted its "satisfaction" at the turn of events in Egypt, according to the official news agency WAM. Gulf ally Qatar, however, was a main backer of Morsi's government and had pledged up to $21 billion in investment and economic aid over the next five years. The plans are now thrown into question with Morsi's downfall after days of massive street protests in Cairo and elsewhere.
But Qatar's new emir, Sheik Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, send a message of congratulations to Egypt's new, interim President Adly Mansour, the official Qatar News Agency reported. The UAE claims Islamist groups backed by the Muslim Brotherhood have sought to topple its Western-backed ruling system. Earlier this week, 69 people were convicted on coup plotting charges. Another 30 suspects, including Egyptians, await trial for alleged links to Brotherhood networks.
In neighboring Saudi Arabia, King Abdullah also sent a congratulations message. In Kuwait, which has a strong branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, some supporters denounced Morsi's toppling as a dangerous precedent.
"Egypt's democracy and the outcome of its decent, free elections, its freedoms and liberties are all under question after some people supported the army coup against democracy," said a Muslim Brotherhood member and former parliament member in Kuwait, Faisal al-Meslim.

Vries, Abraham de (1773-1862)
Abraham de Vries, born 20 April 1773 at Amsterdam, died 3 November 1862 at Haarlem, a Dutch Mennonite minister. He was a son of Gerrit de Vries and Catharina de Bosch. In 1814 he married Hillegonda van Geuns, d. 1866, the widow of Jacob Veen. Abraham de Vries, who was in his youth greatly interested in politics (like most Mennonites he was a Patriot), and who in his student years at the Amsterdam seminary was even a captain of the Landstorm (army reserves), was appointed ministerial candidate in 1799. Thereupon he served the congregations of Nijmegen 1799-1801, Leiden 1801-1803, and Haarlem 1803-1838, in which year he retired. He was a man of great authority both in his own congregations and in the Algemeene Doopsgezinde Sociëteit, of which he was a co-founder in 1811, a member of its board 1811-1839, and an honorary member 1839-1857, when he resigned; he also was a curator of its seminary.
De Vries did not leave any theological writings. More than a theologian he was a literary man, well versed in several languages. In 1820 he refused a professorship in Greek and Latin at the University of Leiden. This university granted him an honorary Dr. Lit. Hum. degree in 1822. For more than 40 years he was also the city librarian and archivist of Haarlem. One of his sons was the well-known professor of Dutch literature Matthias de Vries (1820-1892); another son was Gerrit de Vries (1818-1900), a lawyer and in 1872-74 Dutch Prime Minister.
Abraham de Vries was a member of several literary societies, including the Association for Dutch Literature; in the Levensberichten of this Association. Christiaan Sepp published an appreciative biography of de Vries (Leiden, 1863).

Setting default nameservers for my reseller customers
When your customers purchase or transfer a domain name, they will need to select the nameservers their domain names will point to. In your Reseller Control Center, you can designate your own custom hosting and parked nameservers as the default settings.
Note: You do not need to complete the steps below if you prefer to use our hosting nameservers by default, rather than assigning custom nameservers.
- Log in to your Reseller Control Center.
- Go to the Settings tab and select Domains from the dropdown.
- In the Default Nameservers section, select an option:
- Use custom hosting nameservers — Allows you to specify custom hosting nameservers to be used. (Best for customers hosting their domain names with you.)
- Use custom parked nameservers — Allows you to specify custom parked nameservers to be used. (Best for customers who aren't hosting their domain names immediately.)
Note: To use this feature, your hosting products and top-level domains (TLDs) must support custom nameservers. See the More info section below for details on setting product offerings.
- Hosting — Automatically assigns your customer's domain names to the custom hosting nameservers you specified in step 4.
- Parked — Automatically assign your customer's domain names to the custom parked nameservers you specified in step 4.
Note: If you use your own nameservers to host or park your customers' domain names, you are responsible for any zone file modifications.
Next step
More info
- You can update product offerings and domain name offerings to support custom nameservers on your customers' domains.
- When ready, customize your storefront.

Dear Friends,
Things are dark right now. But make no mistake, America: We are in the midst of a Love Story.
In every great love story comes a heartbreaking moment in which communication fails, tempers flare, relationships are broken, hope fades, and all seems lost.
And this is never where the story ends. Oh, no — this is when the story gets interesting. Because this is when the heroes show up and make it right.
Our country is inside a divisive, heart-stopping moment. Hearts are broken and hope is fading. We're all waiting for the heroes to show up.
But we are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the ones who will show up and make it right.
This fall, in ten cities across the nation, we will rise up, join together, and boldly proclaim our collective intention to lead our lives, families, communities, and nation with love. Together, we will heal hearts. Together, we will restore hope. Together, we will LAUGH. And we will dance. Because, as Emma Goldman once said, A revolution without dancing is not a revolution worth having.
This is our moment. This is our love story.
Please join us this fall at Together Live — a nationwide, traveling three-hour Love Rally. Abby Wambach, Luvvie Ajayi, Jennifer Rudolph Walsh and I will be in every city, and we will be joined by amazing guest speakers in each different city, including Connie Britton, Sophia Bush, Knatokie Ford, Alexis Jones, Alicia Keys, Amani Al-Khatahtbeh, Elizabeth Lesser, Ruthie Lindsey, Ibtihaj Muhammad, Latham Thomas, Jamia Wilson, Maysoon Zayid and more . . .
We will bring badass earth-shakers, hilarious heroines, and revolutionary storytellers to the stage and audience. Together, we will reclaim our shared humanity, overcome fear and division, choose love and ignite change.
This Together community — the tribe we will identify, unite and activate as we travel this country – will be a radical, vital movement of love and transformation during a critical moment.
One of the most revolutionary things we can do is introduce people to each other. Please keep reading below and allow me to introduce to you some of the earth-shakers you will meet at Together Live this fall. And please, be brave and introduce yourselves and your people to us, too – be courageous enough to come alone, or bold enough to invite your your friends. Everybody's in, Baby!
We've worked tirelessly to ensure that this revolution is accessible to ALL. TICKETS START AT JUST $20 if you buy today. For the next 72 hours, if you enter Promo Code: SPEAK, you will receive discounted tickets — $5 off the $25 tickets and $10 off higher-priced tickets. This code will expire at midnight on Wednesday night, so please get your tickets by clicking here:

And please check out some of the amazing women below that will be joining us in different cities through the tour. Sophia's back! Ibtihaj! Connie! Maysoon! Latham! If you have any questions, please contact [email protected].
Luvvie Ajayi – Luvvie's book I'M JUDGING YOU: The Do Better Manual is the first book I've read in years that made me laugh so hard I cried. Sister and I texted each other every other paragraph. Then I saw her speak and she said this: When you allow a someone to denigrate a group of people in your presence and you remain silent – you are allowing that to grow. You are giving it air. She is also the voice behind the hilarious blog Awesomely Luvvie, and executive director of The Red Pump Project, a nonprofit that raises awareness about the impact of HIV/AIDS on women and girls. I've been a super fan ever since I met her. You will be, too.
Connie Britton – SWOON. Four-time Emmy nominated actress and activist, Connie has starred in Spin City, 24, The West Wing, Friday Night Lights, Nashville, and apparently every other show and film that you love. She is adamant about getting strong female voices on the small and big screens, consistently portrays complex women, and is passionate about women knowing their own value. A single mom and a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Development Programme, Connie is a fighter for LGBTQ rights, poverty eradication, and women's empowerment, and I will die when I meet her in person.
Sophia Bush – You know the remarkable Sophia Bush as the beloved actress from One Tree Hill and Chicago PD. She is brave and kind and the moment I met her I knew she'd be a friend for life. She is a phenomenally talented actress, yes — but she is also a fierce activist for women and children and our Earth. She serves as global ambassador for The Girl Project, working to break down the barriers the girls face to secondary school education. She uses her big, strong voice for GOOD and you will ADORE her as much as I do.
Knatokie Ford – A biomedical scientist with PhD from Harvard, Dr. Knatokie Ford recently served as a Senior Policy Advisor in the Obama Administration, where she designed and led the "Image of STEM" project – an effort to raise visibility and improve children's access to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields and careers. I love this important TEDx talk she gave about defeating the imposter syndrome that can paralyze us. She talks about how our inability to internalize our own accomplishments and our persistent fear of being exposed as a fraud can keep us from realizing our dreams and purpose.
Alexis Jones – Alexis founded the nonprofit I AM THAT GIRL, which currently has 1,000,000 girls involved in chapters in over 20 countries. She has worked with prominent teams as well as the Elite 11 quarterback development program on eradicating sexual assault and domestic violence. Alexis recently founded ProtectHer, a locker room program aimed at broadening male athletes' definition of manhood while reminding them of their responsibility to protect and respect the women in their daily lives. A TV host and film producer, she was featured as one of AOL's MAKERS, and is the author of I AM THAT GIRL.
Alicia Keys – Hi, I'm assuming I don't have to introduce this 15-time Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter/producer/activist queen to you. Alicia Keys has sold over 35 million albums worldwide, she stars on (and just won) The Voice, and TIME just named her (again) in their list of 100 most influential people. So, I'll just say this: THIS WOMAN IS A REVOLUTION WRAPPED IN SKIN. Just being in her PRESENCE makes me braver. She speaks freedom and sings love. When she began a makeup-free campaign in May 2016, she said: "I don't want to cover up anymore. Not my face, not my mind, not my soul, not my thoughts, not my dreams, not my struggles, not my emotional growth. Nothing." Amen, Queen Alicia, show us the way. Alicia is trying hard to join us again – but due to shifting schedules, she won't able to confirm until we get closer to events…all our fingers are crossed.
Amani Al-Khatahtbeh – Amani is the founder and editor-in-chief of Muslim Girl, the most-read platform for Muslim women's voices in the West, and which is reclaiming the narrative of Muslim women in Western media. Muslim Girl became the first Muslim company to make the "Forbes 30 Under 30" list in 2016. Amani was named one of Teen Vogue's "New Faces of Feminism," a "Generation Prophet" by The Economist, and was invited by Michelle Obama to speak at the inaugural U.S. State of Women Summit. Amani is the author of Muslim Girl: A Coming of Age and creator of "Uncovered" on MTV Snapchat Discover.
Elizabeth Lesser – Y'all, I am DYING that Elizabeth is joining us. I am, right now at this minute, reading her book Broken Open: How Difficult Time Can Help Us Grow, and it will go on my Favorites Shelf as soon as I'm done. ELIZABETH KNOWS EVERYTHING. She is also co-founder of Omega Institute, recognized internationally for its workshops and conferences in health, wellness, spirituality, creativity, and social change. Her heart and her writing are so gorgeous (she also wrote The Seekers Guide, and Marrow) and I can't believe she's joining us.
Ruthie Lindsey — This woman is a shining gem of Nashville. Ruthie has escaped death a few times and she takes the pain that life has handed her — literally, she lives with constant, chronic pain — and spins it into gold. Her energy and love light up a room and she will convince you that no matter where you are: There is beauty to be found and beauty that only you can offer. She is a friend to me and after you meet her, you'll call her friend, too.
Ibtihaj Muhammad — Olympic Medalist Ibtihaj Muhammad was the first American woman to compete in the Olympics in hijab, and became the first Muslim American female athlete to medal for Team USA at the Rio Olympics. Ibtihaj is one of Abby's favorite badasses. They worked together on a groundbreaking piece for ESPN about women and Muslims in sports and the world. Ibtihaj is a trailblazer – she's strong and brave and is paving the way and making the way forward wider for so many.
Latham Thomas – Latham Thomas is gonna help heal us. Known as the Glow Maven, Latham is a wellness and lifestyle maven and birth doula- transforming how women give birth and how we give rise to the best versions of ourselves by mothering ourselves first. I am telling you right now – she is going to step on stage and she is going to work her magic on you. She will do for you what she does for me – remind me that my power and belonging and worthiness comes not from my hustle but from my very EXISTENCE. Oh, just wait. Latham is magic. You'll see.
Jennifer Rudolph Walsh – Jennifer is the wind beneath our favorite artists' wings. Cheesy but freaking true. She's Oprah's agent, Arianna's agent, Brené's agent, Sheryl Sandberg's agent, Sue Monk Kidd's agent … she gives LIFE to people's dreams. All your favorite books: She helped birth them. She heals the world through the art she releases into the world and she happens to be one of my sister-friends and my co-founder of Together.
Abby Wambach – Abby Wambach is the all-time leading scorer in international soccer history with 184 career goals. A two-time Olympic gold medalist, FIFA Women's World Cup champion, and six-time winner of the U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year award, Abby was the U.S.'s leading scorer in the 2007 and 2011 Women's World Cup tournaments and the 2004 and 2012 Olympics. Author of the New York Times bestselling memoir FORWARD, Abby is dedicating the next chapter of her career to fighting for equality and inclusion across industries. She is also my beloved wife. We've been asked to speak together a million places. But together we decided that the world doesn't need another speech: The world needs a love story. So at Together Live, we'll finally tell ours.
Jamia Wilson – Jamia Wilson is an activist, a storyteller, a feminist, and a movement maker. Last week she was selected as the new Executive Director of the Feminist Press. Jamia is the youngest director in the Press's 47-year history, as well as the first woman of color to lead the organization. She travels around the world to talk about race, feminism, spirituality and leadership. A powerful voice in the social justice world for nearly a decade, Jamia was included in Refinery29's 17 Faces of the Future of Feminism and as CNN's 10 Millennial Feminists.
Maysoon Zayid – Maysoon Zayid is a professional comedian who has performed in top New York clubs and has toured extensively at home and abroad. She is also an actress, disability advocate, and writer. Our dearest Liz Gilbert introduced me to Maysoon's work. Liz said: G, she's one of the best I've ever seen. So I watched a link of her and I laughed and I cried and when she was done I stood up from my desk and clapped. Just all by myself in my office. She had the #1 TED Talk of 2014 and was named 1 of 100 Women of 2015 by BBC. She's powerful and beautiful and brave and she's just THAT good.

I use "Acid River" as an outdoor opening activity to warm up the group and as a foreshadowing of our work on The Five Practices. It also requires people to get into each other's personal space which helps open them up and begin to connect with each other more quickly.
This activity can be used to stimulate insights around problem solving, strategy, challenging, collaboration, teamwork, communication, mutual support, encouragement, and celebration.
- Manila folders. One per person.
- Two lengths of rope or tape to mark off opposite banks of the river. The rope or tape needs to be 10-20 in length depending on group size (brightly colored climbing rope works great) - needs to be long enough for everyone to stand shoulder to shoulder along its length. Lay the two lengths of rope parallel to each other on the ground. By doing so you will have created a "river" between the two ropes and "banks" on the outside of the ropes.
- The distance from bank to bank should be between 25-40 depending on available space and group size.
Safety Considerations:
- If the stepping stones used are manila folders and the activity is being conducted on a cement or asphalt surface, caution the group to be careful as the paper may tear or slip when used.
- This exercise has a very low injury risk factor and should be easy for most everyone to do. However, maintaining balance may be difficult for some participants so they should be encouraged to literally support each other during the exercise so no one is injured.
- Special arrangements should be made for those who have a physical challenge, i.e., wearing a cast, in a wheelchair, etc.
Gather everyone on one bank of the river and have them divide into teams of 4-8 people each. Give everyone a "stepping stone" — a manila folder. Tell them that the objective of the exercise is to get everyone in the group safely across the imaginary river without anyone falling in. The river, of course, is full of hungry competitors, piranha, difficulties, and that the resources the company needs to survive are on the other side of the river. In order to insure the company's continued success, a creative solution must be generated that will get everyone across the river and have everyone step onto the opposite bank at the same time.
Tell them that they are individual teams but they are all part of one larger organization. Describe the rules of the activity (see below) and answer any of their questions. Teams have 5 minutes to brainstorm possible strategies for crossing the river. They may practice, if they choose, on the starting bank but not in the river (between the two rope/tape lines). Call time after 5 minutes of planning, bring the teams to the starting bank, remind them of their objective (to all step onto the opposite bank in unison), tell them they have 15 minutes to reach the other side and start them on their way.
- You must keep possession of your stepping stone. You may not hand it to anyone else. However, others may step on your stone in passing.
- You can rest only on your own stone.
- No "skooching" - sliding your rock along the ground.
- If anyone falls in the river (steps off a stone), everyone in the entire group must go back to the starting river bank and begin again.
- Everyone must step onto the opposite bank at the same time.
Debrief: Some thoughts for your debrief
- Despite having given clear instructions, and even having repeated them more than once, I frequently find that they interpret the instruction that everyone must step onto the bank at the same time to mean everyone in their small team. This sets up a good discussion about clarifying instructions and understanding what your deliverables are.
- The set up into small teams often triggers the notion that they are competing with each other so they don't collaborate in developing a strategy or while on the river. The instructions don't suggest anything about competition. In fact, the goal of having everyone step onto the bank in unison means that there is no point in racing across the river, you'll only have to wait there for everyone else to arrive before the task can be completed. This sets up an exploration of collaboration vs. competition and might they have performed better had they shared their strategies and supported each other in the execution.
- I ask them how this activity is a metaphor for the work we will be doing in the workshop, such as being open and willing to share ideas, take some risks and to support each other.
- I also foreshadow our work with The Five Practices by asking whether they had any shared standards of performance like making sure everybody got across the river safely (Model the Way), did they have a clear, shared goal (Inspire a Shared Vision), did they think about altering or changing the rules of the activity (Challenge the Process), did they listen to each other and treat each other with respect (Enable Others to Act), and did they encourage each other while on the river and celebrate when they stepped onto the bank (Encourage the Heart).
Try the "Acid River" and have fun!

An organization called the Tourism of Thailand was founded by Prince Purachara Jayakara, the Prince of Kamphaengphet. When sitting as a train commander, the prince sent stories about Thailand to get published in the USA. In 1924, he set up an advertising department for the State Railway of Thailand to help tourists who visited Thailand and promote Thailand among foreigners. The office was originally at the State Railway of Thailand but was later moved to Hua Lamphong Railway Station. Subsequently after Prince Purachara Jayakara went to work for the Ministry of Commerce and Transport, the office also moved there but it was still working closely with the State Railway of Thailand.
In 1936, the Tourism of Thailand was the focus of changes when the Ministry of Economics presented a Thailand Travel Promotion project to the cabinet, which had three main directives:
1. To promote tourism.
2. To accommodate tourists
3. To maintain tourist locations and accommodations.
The Ministry of Economics gave the responsibility to the Department of Commerce because they already had a commerce and travel sector. The Ministry of Economics took the helm until World War II when the main office was bombed and work on their projects had to be ceased.
In 1949, the Department of Advertising made a deal with the Ministry of Economics, then the Ministry of Commerce and Transport, to transfer the tourism business to the Office of the Prime Minister.
In 1958, while Field Marshal Sarit Thanarat was recovering at Walter Reed Hospital in the USA, he was interested in a tourism business and took the opportunity to study about it out of a wish to support his homeland's tourism industry. A year later, when he assumed the position of the Prime Minister of Thailand, he also sat as the president of the tourism association and turned it into an independent organization.
Subsequently, as the tourism industry was booming and developing exponentially, the scope of the organization grew with it, extending to development and conservation of tourism resources and promotion of travel. A rebranding occurred once again and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) was finally established on 4 May 1979.

The first arrangement of this piece for full flute orchestra! This arrangement is scored for 4 C Flutes, 2 Alto Flutes, Bass Flute and Contrabass.
This charming and popular piece was written in 1887. Obtaining its rhythm from the slow processional Spanish court dance of the same name, the Pavane ebbs and flows from a series of harmonic and melodic climaxes, conjuring a cool, somewhat haunting, Belle Epoque(French for "Beautiful Era") elegance. The piece is scored for a small orchestra and optional chorus.
A typical performance lasts around seven minutes.

I'm an emx owner looking to buy a music program for my windows vista laptop PC.
I've read on these forums that ableton (which had been my first choice for a PC-based music application) has some trouble sending nrpns? This seems to make it less than ideal for use with my electribe. Then again, there seems to be a new release (ableton 8, I believe), so these issues may have been resolved. MIDI functionality and ability to interact successfully with my emx is key, as is it being a fully-functional, up-to-date music creation program (think cubase, ableton, etc).
So, I'm asking for suggestions, experiences with this or other programs, pros/cons of any you know. Which program can any of you recommend i buy/avoid?
Hopefully this forum can help me make the RIGHT choice, I kinda only have enough for one at the moment!! Don't wanna have to buy more than one of these babies!!
Thanks in advance, and thanks for a great forum Ruso and contributors.

Must one believe that there is only one True and Living God to be saved? Obviously the scripture states in various places that God is one (Deut 6:4, Isaiah 45:5), and I do believe this and I am fully convinced by it, but would it be possible for a new convert not to know this truth and still be saved?
The reason I ask this question is because I am trying to examine presuppositions that I have, and how they influence my interpretation of certain texts.
Please note I would appreciate answers based on Scripture.

Last month, at the London Summit on Family Planning, leaders from 18 African countries made unprecedented commitments—financially and politically—to strengthen their family planning programs.
The Summit, sponsored by the British government and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, with support from UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, focused attention on the ongoing lack of family planning services for millions of women in the developing world and garnered extraordinary global support and resources to enable 120 million more women to use contraceptives by 2020.
The Summit donor countries and foundations together pledged $2.6 billion to make family planning available to 120 million women in developing countries by 2020. Developing countries themselves also pledged to increase support.
The call to action came not a moment too soon. In Sub-Saharan Africa alone, approximately 53 million women have an unmet need for modern contraceptives, meaning they want to avoid pregnancy but are not using a modern method.
A new study by the Guttmacher Institute and UNFPA shows there has been minimal progress in addressing the contraceptive needs of African women during the past four years. What's worse, in the 39 poorest countries in the region, the number of women with an unmet need has actually increased since 2008.
Among all sexually active women of reproductive age in Sub-Saharan Africa, 42 per cent want to avoid pregnancy but only 17 per cent are using a modern contraceptive.
Across the continent, progress in meeting the demand for contraceptive services has been uneven. The situation of married women—who represent the bulk of women with contraceptive needs—is telling. Between 2008 and 2012, the proportion of married women using modern contraceptives increased from 20 per cent to 27 per cent in East Africa and from 54 per cent to 58 per cent in Southern Africa.
However, in West Africa and Central Africa, there was no progress during that time, and contraceptive use among married women remains low at 9 per cent and 7 per cent, respectively.
Not being able to plan their pregnancies can have devastating consequences for women. In 2012, more than 160,000 are expected to die in Sub-Saharan Africa from pregnancy-related causes—62,000 of them did not want to be pregnant in the first place, a sobering statistic.
The benefits of improving and expanding family planning programs in Sub-Saharan Africa would be dramatic: There would be 14 million fewer unintended pregnancies; maternal deaths would decline by 29 per cent, saving the lives of 48,000 women; and infant deaths would drop by 555,000 annually. Plus, if women spaced their births by three years, which many would like to do, deaths among children aged five and under would drop significantly.
So, what will it take to make these dramatic gains a reality? Currently, approximately US$381 million is spent each year on contraceptive care in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Expanding coverage to all women who want to use family planning but lack access to contraceptive services would require an increase of US$2.3 billion. This sounds like a lot, but this investment is modest in relation to the remarkable returns it would achieve.
What's more, it would actually lower total health-related costs. Every dollar invested in family planning services in Sub-Saharan Africa saves $1.30 on maternal and newborn health care—money that could be invested in other critical areas.
In addition to improving public health, satisfying unmet need for modern contraceptives would bring a host of other benefits. Enabling women to control their fertility and time their births means better chances for higher educational attainment, increased employment opportunities, and enhanced social and economic status.
Family savings and investment would rise, spurring economic growth and reducing poverty. These advances at the family level would in turn make social and economic development goals easier to achieve, benefiting society as a whole.
Evidence from Ethiopia, Malawi and Rwanda shows that, with strong government commitment, significant gains can quickly be made in meeting women's contraceptive needs.
In Rwanda, contraceptive use among married women increased from 9 per cent in 2005 to 44 per cent in 2010, a truly impressive achievement. If the commitments made at the London Summit are realized, and similar ones follow, this kind of progress could potentially become the norm, not the exception.
Now it is up to all of Africa's leaders and the international community to do their part through a sustained commitment to improving the provision of contraceptive services. Not only do women want to time and space their pregnancies to achieve healthier outcomes and better lives for themselves and their families, it is their human right to do so.
Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin is United Nations Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund. Sharon L. Camp, PhD. is President and CEO of the Guttmacher Institute.

Virginia Tops Men's Recruiting Class Rankings, Stays at No. 1; NCAA Relaxes Recruiting Restrictions in All D-I Sports; Sarmiento Wins Sherwood Cup
The Tennis Recruiting Network revealed its men's recruiting class rankings Monday, with the University of Virginia on top for the second year in a row, receiving 23 of 25 first place votes by the panel, which includes me. Because these rankings are subjective and don't take into account transfers, January admissions and many international players, they certainly don't directly correlate to a program's future success. But it is an interesting and handy way to survey what's happened on the recruiting front during the early signing period, always remembering there's another signing period coming up this spring for the class of 2013.
The ITA released another set of team rankings today, but very little changed, with the dual season barely underway for some teams and not yet started for others. The Top 10s for both men and women are virtually the same as two weeks ago.
The Top 10 Men:
1. Virginia
2. Southern California
4. Ohio State
5. Duke
6. Georgia
7. Pepperdine
8. Oklahoma
9. Kentucky
10. Stanford
The Top 10 Women:
1. Florida
3. Duke
5. Stanford
6. Georgia
7. Cal
8. North Carolina
T-9 Miami (FL)
T-9 Alabama
The complete rankings are available at the ITA website.
The NCAA announced over the weekend that the dramatic recruiting rule changes will be implemented beginning this August for the recruiting class of 2014. The restrictions on number and timing of phone calls, texts, messages, etc. are gone, and there are many, many other changes. The NCAA's announcement is here, the Associated Press story is here, and ESPN has an opinion piece here, which believes recruits will be inundated when all the rules are relaxed. The NCAA obviously believes the opportunity for a recruit and a coach to get to know each other better before a commitment outweighs this concern.
One of the first important college tournaments of the year in California is the Sherwood Cup, which features most of the top Pac-12 players in an individual event prior to the start of the dual match season. This year's winner was USC junior Raymond Sarmiento, the No. 1 seed, who defeated unseeded UCLA junior Adrien Puget 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 in yesterday's final. UCLA, who had three of the four semifinalists, won the doubles title over USC, with No. 3 seeds Marcos Giron and Dennis Novikov defeating unseeded Emilio Gomez and Eric Johnson 8-7(4).
The complete draws, minus only those final two results, can be found here. Slide the bar at the bottom to the right for the doubles.

1. Obtain the addresses, birth dates, and anniversary dates for all of my first cousins on both sides of my family … and names and birth dates of spouses and children. Oh and all my half siblings' spouses and kids too.
Yep, still working on this one.
2. Attend at least five (5) Scanfests (or equivalent) this year - and actually scan stuff.
Hooray!! I got a Scanfest under my belt finally! I managed to scan about 65 photos on Sunday.
3. Scan and label at least 15 photos and/or negatives each week, or until they are done, whichever happens first.
See #2 above. And that, my friends, is the last of the photos from "the box." I did a little happy dance, there. Did you see?
4. Attend at least two (2) genealogy conferences.
I already registered and made my hotel reservations for FGS in Birmingham in August. I'm also planning on attending the Family History Expo in Atlanta in November.
5. Give at least two (2) presentations to my genealogical society.
Still trying to decide on my next topic, but it looks like I will be presenting in October.
6. Index at least 200 records per month at FamilySearch Indexing.
I have officially punched through the 1,000 mark since April 1, and there's still plenty more to index. So I'm feeling pretty confident about this one.
7. Add at least five (5) individual ancestor stories to my website.
Added one ancestor this month: Christina Ann Huber Slowey. That makes 2 so far.
8. Blog at least twice per week.
Not including this post, I only have 6 for April. I guess I slacked off a bit this month.
9. Finish reading Greenwood's "The Researcher's Guide to American Genealogy."
I read and attended the book club for Chapters 15 and 16 last week. I've started reading Chapters 17 and 18. Only 9 more chapters to go!
10. Add at least three (3) website links per week to my online toolbox.
The "pending" folder is completely empty. I recently added some Irish and Canadian resources from a couple of webinars.
I'm proud of my progress with indexing (I'm no Bill West, but I'll take what I can get), but the rest of the list could certainly use some work. I admit, I had a bit of a hard time focusing for the past couple of weeks. I think it was part spring fever and part recuperation from sleep deprivation. In any case, I

Southeastern Wisconsin in tornado drought
Eagle's fire chief remembers 2010 devastation
Wisconsin seems to be in a drought of a different variety -- a tornado drought.
WeatherWatch 12 meteorologist Luke Sampe explored what's behind the relative calm and why it's important to know what to do to keep your family safe during severe weather.
"Every day, it's every day a constant reminder of just how fragile life can be," Eagle Fire Department Chief Justin Heim said.
Heim recalled when nature's most violent winds ravaged his town -- a day that is permanently etched in his memory,
"A lot of the houses around here, you'll notice a lot of new siding and new roofs," Heim said.
It was just after 9 p.m. June 21, 2010, when an EF2 tornado packing winds up to 135 mph ripped roofs apart, shifted homes from their foundations, and for one house, left nothing but a stairwell in the basement standing.
"Well, this was the epicenter of everything, so we didn't really know what was going on with my family," Heim said.
It turned out the home with nothing left but the stairwell was his.
His wife, two daughters, two dogs and two cats huddled under the stairs as the tornado swept the home away and survived
Even though it's been almost three years since the Eagle tornado, the devastation is visible to this day, some trees still leaning from the destructive winds.
The tornado drought in southeastern Wisconsin is thanks in a large part to a hot and dry 2012, and so far, a cold and wet 2013.
It's been nearly two years since there's even been a tornado warning in southeastern Wisconsin. That is the longest stretch between that type of weather warning on record in the area -- a tranquility that has Heim concerned.
"I think most people get really complacent, and they think it's never going to happen to them. Well, I'm here to tell you, through my own experience, that it will happen, so planning is the key," Heim said.
The last tornado warning in southeastern Wisconsin was 693 days ago on June, 21, 2011 -- the one year anniversary of the Eagle tornado.

Product is concentrated. Produces up to 3 × the amount once diluted—view dilution charts.
Coverage: 1 pint covers approximately 65–85 sq. feet once diluted. This amount may vary depending on your surface.
For our Limewash, we use a traditional mixture of slaked lime putty and all natural pigments to color the solution. Limewash sets slowly by absorbing carbon dioxide in the air, producing calcite crystals that create a soft surface glow. True Limewash effects are often strived for, but never achieved with faux finishes. Our Limewash provides a long lasting, unique finish.
Our Limewash is best applied on the following surfaces:
- Stucco
- Brick
- Stone
- Cement Board
- Plaster
- Adobe
- Earth Plasters
* Please use colors as a guide. Actual color may vary slightly depending on dilution, surface material, and monitor display settings.

He's got salary, pensions, investments and more
San Diego Mayor
He earns $94,000 as mayor, a pay reduction from the $174,000 annual pay he earned as a member of
Filner this past week asked the City Council to use tax money to fund his legal defense, but members voted unanimously against that.
Here's a look at other sources of cash for Filner:
Filner has investment accounts that at minimum were worth more than $350,000 as of January this year, and from which he was tapping for between $5,111 and $29,525 in annual income, according to his final disclosure form. The exact value is not known because congressional ethics forms allow for reporting a wide range. Filner's investments may be worth more than $1 million. The two largest investments are a GE Life Commonwealth annuity and a tax-sheltered annuity through
The mayor and Jane M. Filner own a condo on Summit Drive in Chula Vista. Its value for tax purposes is $250,000.
Jane Patricia Merrill and Filner sold a condo on Wisconsin Avenue in
Filner had between $350,002 and $750,000 in liabilities associated with two mortgages, one in Washington, D.C., the other in Chula Vista, as of January of this year, according to his congressional ethics form.
Retirement funds
Filner is eligible for three public pensions.
He is already drawing $14,700 in annual income from his
He was eligible to join the Congressional pension system. Congress does not make the amount of individual benefits public. Filner's benefit would be $58,900, assuming he participated from his start date and took a spousal annuity option, which reduces a lawmaker's benefit so a spouse may collect a portion at the death of a lawmaker. Filner's 2011 divorce papers with Jane Merrill Filner reference an order with respect to Filner's federal pension.
He is also eligible for a city pension, estimated at $19,000 a year.
This story has been amended from its original, which incorrectly said Filner's pension amount would rise to $19,000 only if he reached his anniversary date as mayor on Dec. 3. In fact, elected official salaries are calculated based on the most recent month's pay. Therefore, Filner was eligible for a retirement benefit calculated based on his $94,000 annual mayoral salary after one month in that office.
That's because his benefit will be calculated based on $94,000 salary as mayor instead of his lower salary from his stint as a city councilman.
It's not known whether Filner is drawing Social Security or payments through yet another retirement plan for members of Congress. The 401(k)-like plan for federal workers called the thrift savings plan offers a 5 percent employer match, and a 1 percent employer contribution even if an employee does not contribute.
Political funds
In some cases, a politician can tap campaign funds for professional expenses, including legal fees. The litigation must arise out of the conduct of a campaign, the electoral process, or the performance of a city official's governmental duties. City Attorney Jan Goldsmith has said any sexually harassing behavior on Filner's part would be outside the scope of his official duties. As of late Friday, the city had not received a filing from Filner for such a committee.
Filner's congressional campaign had a zero balance as of the end of last year.
Filner's mayoral campaign committee, Bob Filner for Mayor 2012, had a zero cash balance as of the end of the last reporting period, June 30. The campaign filed its termination report Thursday.
A second committee that conceivably could be tapped for a legal-defense fund, the Mayor Bob Filner for San Diego committee, had a $32,531 cash balance and $6,713 in outstanding debts as of the end of June. If the mayor wanted to transfer funds from this committee, he would first have to obtain a disclosure of pending matters from each contributor.
The mayor could also begin fundraising anew in a legal-defense fund, which would have an individual contribution cap of $550 per proceeding. At present, Filner is being sued only one time, by former communications director Irene McCormack Jackson. If more suits are filed, or other legal action is taken, that would increase the amount each individual could donate.

Pink Magic is a branch of magic. It may be a "good" type of magic, mainly used to mutual benefit and advantage.[1] The Daily Prophet newspaper ran a segment on Pink Magic.[2]
Behind the scenes
- Common conotations of the colour pink include love, health, beauty, innocence, happiness, sexuality and femininity. Given this, it appears that Pink Magic is somewhat the opposite of the Dark Arts.
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film) (Mentioned on a newspaper)
Notes and references
- ↑ Given the common connotations of the colour pink, this seems to be the most likely.
- ↑ Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 20 (Hagrid's Tale)

The chief of police at the university Craig Stone said that the suspect was shot dead after ramming into pedestrians with a car and attacking them with a butcher knife. While the incident was initially reported as an "active shooter" situation, the suspect did not shoot anyone.
"About 9:52 am, a male suspect drove a vehicle over the curb… struck pedestrians. He exited the vehicle, and used a butcher knife to start cutting pedestrians," Craig Stone said as quoted by AFP.
"This car just swerved and ran into a whole group of people," said Nicole Kreinbrink, who was walking down the street when she saw the car hit people who had evacuated an academic building during a fire alarm. "All these people were running and screaming and yelling," she added.

Dave's Rating:
In "Year Two" they become astronauts.
Who's In It: Jack Black, Michael Cera, David Cross, Harold Ramis, Hank Azaria, Vinnie Jones, Oliver Platt, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Juno Temple, Olivia Wilde
The Basics: Two cavemen, banished from their village for lacking skills as hunters and gatherers, go off in search of a new tribe. Instead they meet Adam, Cain, Abel, Abraham, Isaac and a lot of wild folks in the city of Sodom. In other words, it's an old Bob Hope and Bing Crosby road movie crossed with those caveman commercials, a little 10,000 B.C. and Mel Brooks's History of the World: Part 1, laced throughout with Jack Black (character trait: loud obnoxious stupidity) and Michael Cera (character trait: sheepish uncertainty) playing exactly the same guys they play in every movie either of them have ever done.
What's The Deal: There are moments in your film-viewing life where your brain gets split in half. The rational part explains to you that there's nothing going on in a movie, that the humor is tired and not worth the attention you're paying, that it's beneath you, that it's beneath any adult with a triple digit IQ, that it's plotless, pointless, slapped together, cynically produced and designed to be forgotten. And then your brain's other half watches Jack Black eat bear feces and Michael Cera urinate on his own face and everyone else get themselves bonked on the head with sticks and rocks and you realize that you're laughing at almost every idiotic bit. And then you feel a little ashamed of yourself. Then you do, in fact, forget about it. Then you go get some ice cream. I got Ben & Jerry's Peanut Butter Cup. And it was good.
Easily Offended Old Testament Literalist Alert: If you're the type that thinks of the Old Testament a history book, you'll find yourself surprised to learn that in this movie's universe everyone in those stories exists at the same time. And that's Sodom's biggest problems were excessive partying, a few guys wearing mascara and an over-dependence on the idea of a supreme being. But then again if you are a literalist about that sort of thing then you're already probably not going to go see a comedy about it all starring Jack Black.
Why I Might Be Totally Wrong About All Of This: I'm feeling sort of summer-cold-ish this week. Sore throat, cough, fatigue, sneezing, the works. And I've been drinking Nyquil. And I think my ability to tell right from wrong may be somewhat impaired right now. Because everyone around me was stone silent during the screening. Hating it without reservation. Meanwhile I'm cracking up. And earlier the same day I laid in bed watching reruns of The Steve Harvey Show on BET and I thought that was funny too. So I'm going to give the haters the benefit of the doubt and declare this movie to be unwise viewing unless you're taking really awesome cold medicine.
Featuring: An uncredited Paul Rudd as the hilariously bludgeoned-to-death Abel and a self-congratulatory Smokey & the Bandit-style blooper reel over the end credits.
