27 Years Ago: AC/DC Begin Their Comeback With 'Blow Up Your Video'
Subscribe to WWMJ Ellsworth Maine on
Arguably no album released during the Brian Johnson era arrived with smaller fanfare than AC/DC's 'Blow Up Your Video,' which was released on Jan. 18, 1988.
AC/DC's prior two studio albums, 1983's 'Flick of the Switch' and '85's 'Fly on the Wall,' had both paled in comparison to prior mega-triumphs 'For Those About to Rock' and 'Back in Black,' creatively speaking. In fact, were it not for the 'Who Made Who' soundtrack-cum-greatest hits gimmick to raise the band's commercial profile, their career might have been in some real danger.
There were many problems contributing to AC/DC's fall from grace — Malcolm Young's escalating alcoholism; Phil Rudd's ejection; even complacency, sure — but perhaps the most obvious of these addressed by 'Blow Up Your Video' was bringing back an actual producer to work with the band in the studio. And who better to simultaneously put the boys at ease and whip their asses into gear than the Vanda & Young team that had shepherded their first five albums to fruition?
It worked, for the most part.
Let's be honest: many of the new songs ('Some Sin for Nuthin,' 'Ruff Stuff') proved almost as pedestrian and imminently forgettable as those recent efforts, but a pair of bona fide hits in the frantic 'Heatseeker' and infectious 'That's the Way I Wanna Rock 'n' Roll' proved AC/DC could still compose hits without totally losing their balls.
Simply put, all of these songs — mediocre or great — at least sounded like the AC/DC of old. The final verdict was, of course, rendered by the fans, who snapped up as many copies of 'Blow Up Your Video' as they had its two predecessors combined. Perhaps more than any other accomplishment, though, 'Blow Up Your Video' helped the Young brothers begin righting their ship, thus setting the stage for the resounding return to form that was 1990's highlight-packed 'The Razor's Edge' album.

Reed Apparently Not Aware Of FAFSA
To the Readers' Forum:
Congressman Tom Reed recently met with College students and financial aid officers here in my county to talk about the high cost of higher education. He then told a Post-Journal reporter that there is plenty of money available for financial aid, but that bureaucracy and inefficiency keeps students from having access to it. His solution we need one stop shopping for financial aid. He is apparently unaware of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which has been the one stop application used by almost all colleges for decades.
This level of naivety from a congressman trying to show his concern for his constituents regarding their high cost of education is appalling, but it pales next to his deceitful framing of the issue. Congressman Reed cannot possibly be ignorant of the fact that the federal budget sequestration cuts $96,000,000 in financial aid grants to 70,000 students, and nearly doubles fees on student loans. On top of that, the Ryan budget, passed by Reed and the rest of the House Republicans, freezes Pell grants at their current level for 10 years, and provides financial aid to fewer families.
Congressman Reed proposes one stop shopping, which already exists, but with his "plan", would empty the shelves before the shoppers get there.

Blog: Charlie Swearingen in Costa Rica No. 5
Charlie Swearingen is a member of the U.S. Men's Sitting Volleyball Team, which played in the Central American Games for Sitting Volleyball in Costa Rica
SAN JUAN, Costa Rica (April 21, 2013) – As we stood on the center podium at the Central American Games for Sitting Volleyball awards ceremony, I reflected back on the three sets of play. The Colombian team arrived fit for championship play and badly wanted a win over Team USA; this you could see in their eyes. Their team is at a critical level in their development where they are beginning to play less 'scramble' and more controlled, deliberate execution. They were quiet on the way to the venue, which hasn't been the case throughout the week as they have typically been boisterous and jovial competitors. Not anymore. The calm fierceness displayed in their demeanor and behavior meant only one thing: they believed they were going to win and they were focusing hard on that singular goal. I have heard of 'Sunday' Tiger Woods stepping up his game in the final round of golf, and perhaps Colombia was exhibiting a sitting volleyball equivalent of this phenomenon. It was our job to thwart this focus through consistent play.
|Charlie Swearingen
The Colombian team took advantage of some early U.S. mistakes and paired it with some hustle to lead Team USA multiple times in the match. We had to come back several times to take all three sets. Most notably was the second set where we had to crawl out of a six-point deficit as we had 22-16 glaring at us from the scorers' table. Dan Regan had some key blocks and shut Colombia down at the net during our run to extricate ourselves from the aforementioned point deficit. Dan also exploited several holes in the Colombian defense as he led the team in total points, which is quite a feat for a middle hitter to accomplish.
Team USA's point distribution was pretty equal with everyone pulling together and taking a piece of Colombian victory away with each point earned. I enjoyed a couple of long serving runs where some well-placed serves played havoc on Colombia's serve-receive defense.
Edgar Laforest continued to be a leader and calming element on the court as well as earning several quality points for Team USA. Aside from the occasional correction he would angrily bark from the bench as one of us made a knuckleheaded play, Coach Hamiter kept a calm constitution during timeouts and dispensed positive feedback in such a manner to motivate us to perform better. I gotta tell you, it's like he has done this before. Rejy and Thomas played solidly after knocking off the jitteriness after the first set and earned some key points assisting team USA out of the cellar in set two. J Dee also had some key points as well as hitting a ball so hard it not only flew out of bounds, but I'm sure NASA has recently discovered a new object orbiting the Earth.
We finally tied up the second set at 23-23, but would flip-flop with them in points until we finally pulled 2 points away at 24-26 to take the win. It was a dagger to the competitive fierceness they intimidatingly displayed on the bus ride to the venue. We steamrolled Team Colombia in the third set as you could already see the defeat in their eyes. I played and lost a chess game with one of their players earlier in the week and during that third set we made eye contact in the moments before a serve. I nodded as if to say, "keep your head up." He nodded too, but in a manner that revealed his damage spirit. A few plays later, it was over.
As I leaned over to accept my gold medal, I looked up, shook the presenters hand, and said, "That was for Boston." His smile subtlety grew a little wider and we extended the handshake a few extra moments before letting go as if he were silently saying, "well done."
We are now on a plane back to the States and into the welcoming arms of those who love us. While in their embrace, we will remind ourselves just how important that love is and what it means to us. Our win is somewhat bittersweet in that we played for those in Boston who lost the lives and limbs of their loved ones in the bombing. The world happens all around us and individually we are limited to what we can do about it. However, how we handle what the world doles out is within our ability to make a better difference. Make sure the ones you love know they are loved. Make sure every moment and every point counts. For Boston, for our country, for ourselves: we made every point count on that court and brought you home gold. Our hearts and thoughts are with you, Boston. Playing for you truly was our honor.

It's official: Lindsay Lohan can't even stay out of trouble in her own home!
Despite making over $2 million in 2012, LiLo is reportedly struggling to pay the rent on her $8,000 per month Beverly Hills mansion. (First world problems!) She moved into the mansion last February, but is now hitting up friends to help make payments until the one-year lease runs out. She even had younger sister Ali sell bags of her red carpet duds for quick cash at a consignment shop. Maybe Charlie Sheen can come to the rescue again?
And it looks Lindsay's home drama is even playing out on reality TV... find out why after the jump!

Hopefully some of you saw my preview but I'll keep everyone updated on the games here.
Russia dominated Latvia 4-1 today. Mayorov did not play, I'm not sure he made the trip. Perhaps due to injury. Filatov had 6 of Russia's 44 shots on goal.
The US is currently destroying Germany 7-1 midway through the third period. van Riemsdyk and Wilson both have a pair. The US has Germany tripled in shots, with Ruth a +1.
Finland-Sweden later, and Canada-Czech Republic after that.

Imagine this: Mere minutes after a lengthy bilateral meeting with European counterparts, you step on to the stage and take your place behind a microphone. You have been asked, alongside a "top official" from the United States, to represent Germany at a press conference on the latest developments in the Eurozone. Palms sweating, you take the first question, hoping that they will be easy on you. A journalist turns on his microphone and starts out with a tough one, "Germany has been imposing austerity measures across the Eurozone, but are you considering the effects these drastic measures might have on working class Europeans?"
For 68 European and American high school students representing 42 different countries, this scenario became reality, if only for a few hours, in a simulation conducted at the State Department as part of the Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellows Summer Institute. The Institute, sponsored by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs and hosted by Wake Forest University, aims to foster relationships among the younger generation of Europeans, Eurasians, and Americans. The Fellows' 4-week-program takes them to the cities of Winston-Salem, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., where they learn how the United States and Europe approach regional and global challenges and develop their own ideas to take our cooperation well into the 21st century.
Part of their program included a day of activities at the State Department. The Fellows began their morning with addresses by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, Lee Satterfield, and the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Public Diplomacy for the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs, Bay Fang, about the importance of educational exchanges and the role of the State Department in diplomacy. Menaka Nayyar, Deputy Director of the Office of Youth and Global Issues, also spoke about how the students can get involved and affect change in their home countries on the issues that matter to them.
For the rest of the morning, the Fellows took part in a diplomatic simulation covering some of today's most pressing transatlantic issues: Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, and the global economic crisis. After State Department policy experts briefed on these issues, the students formed U.S. and European delegations to vocalize their country's top foreign policy objectives in "formal bilats." Representatives from each delegation then participated in a mock press conference, and peers, acting as the press corps, grilled them with hard-hitting questions.
The Fellows certainly impressed in tackling the challenge of fostering foreign relationships in order to resolve global issues, advancing their own interests, and communicating their message to the wider world. According to one student, the chance to collaborate and to experience how diplomats work in real life was one of the best parts of their entire trip. As an organizer and observer of the Fellows' visit to the Department, I feel comforted knowing that these bright, young people, who care deeply about the peaceful resolution of these and other issues, are the future leaders that will drive the transatlantic relationship in the years to come.
Images from the Fellows' trip to the State Department can be found on their website.

Urban Development/ Good Neighbor Program
GSA facilities are located in more than 2,000 communities nationwide, from major metropolitan areas to small rural communities. As a federal agency, GSA has the responsibility to leverage its federal real estate actions in ways that support community development goals, while also meeting client agency needs, wherever possible. This responsibility derives from legal mandate, including federal law and executive orders, as well as sound business practices.
The core mission of the Urban Development/Good Neighbor Program is to provide GSA regional offices and their stakeholders with the technical, training, and outreach resources they need to implement good neighbor principles in the business practices of the Public Buildings Service. Those principles are:
- Locate new owned and leased Federal facilities in places that support local plans and Federal sustainability goals;
- Design new facilities to create outstanding Federal workplaces and attractive public spaces that integrate with their surroundings and support neighborhood urban design goals;
- Renovate and revisit existing Federal properties to improve their public spaces and encourage stakeholders to improve neighborhood conditions;
- Manage Federal properties to encourage public use and openness; and
- Participate in neighborhood physical and management improvement efforts around Federal projects and properties as an active civic partner in the community.
Outside the agency, the program develops positive long-term partnerships with national constituent organizations and serves as an initial point of contact for citizens who wish to discuss a federal project or issue with GSA.

This is a great product because is has the good essentials EPA, DHA and GLA from omega 3 and 6 in a perfect balance. I take 3 a day now because I don't eat much fish and meat. I don't have an after taste after taking these gels!
good mix
Posted by HealthandBeautyGirl on Feb 04, 2014
Was using Max DHA which I love, but tried some borage oil and seemed to feel better overall (calmer etc), so I found this which combines both so it's a money saver and less pills to take. oddly, I have lost 5 pounds without trying or changing anything else, I am wondering if it's from this. I don't normally lose weight easily and I wasn't aware of Borage oil or this combo for weight loss. SEE MY PAGE IF NEW TO IHERB!
Warning, this may not be what you expect
Posted by Reviewer2705221 on Feb 08, 2009
Note that the serving size is 2 caps. The RX Omega 3 Factors with only fish oil, containing 400/200 mg EPA/DHA in each capsule is better priced. The borage oil added to these WellBetX caps should be much less expensive.
A calmer too
Posted by Reviewer1867644 on Dec 19, 2007
I need this for good cholesterol count, for inflamations but I feel more its effect as a calmer because of the DHA present in this capsule.

John Viola on Building World Champions
Coach, John Viola, took a moment between practices at the 2008 Senior World Roller Figure Skating Championship with his World Class Solo Dancer, Joseph Farias III, to talk about his current and past skating champions and the senior skaters produced by trainers in the United States and worldwide. In his lifetime of roller sports coaching, he has been responsible for more world team members than he can remember.
John feels that a champion is not built from a focus on winning medals. His skaters are taught to set goals, are trained to build a good work ethic, are encouraged to develop good sportsmanship and are given an arsenal of knowledge about their sport to help them understand events, options, requirements and results. Then Viola approaches each competition hoping his skaters will be able to produce their best personal performance based on their own skills and capabilities. A good or bad skate only is relative to the individual skater's ability.
His biggest real goal for each athlete is to make them a good person overall, with skills that will carry on in other aspects of life. John's reward comes when former skaters contact him to say thanks for helping to lay the foundation that built success in their other life achievements. John Viola's philosophy is a good one, because although his goal for each of his skaters is not a medal, often one of the ancillary results may be one.

Nina Grewal Fleetwood—Port Kells, BC
Mr. Speaker, Canadians have demanded that the government crackdown on crime. For too many years, the Liberal politicians have weakened our laws and legal system. Our government is correcting that imbalance.
In the last month we have announced legislation to eliminate pardons for serious crimes, protect children from online exploitation, provide mandatory jail time for serious drug offences, tackle auto theft and trafficking in property obtain by crime and provide tougher sentences for white-collar crime.
Earlier we took action to crackdown on gun crime, increased the age of consent, eliminated house arrest for violent crime, strengthened penalties for street racing and much more.
We are now also taking steps to enhance the safety and security of the online marketplace with legislation to combat spam and amendments to protect the personal information of Canadians.
This government is delivering on our commitment to make our streets and our communities safer.
World No Tobacco Day

Carolyn Bennett St. Paul's, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise today, on World No Tobacco Day, to speak about the damaging effects of cigarettes, especially for youth.
When I was first elected in 1997, smoking rates were 31%. By 2006, the Liberal government had reduced that number to 19%.
Since the Conservatives have come to power, there has been no further reduction in smoking rates and illegal tobacco sales have doubled nationally, to over 32%, in 2008. Contraband cigarette smuggling costs Canada an estimated $2 billion a year in lost revenues.
The government's announcement on Friday is too little, too late. A comprehensive approach must include enforcement, education, engagement of first nations, as well as interdepartmental and interjurisdictional co-operation.
We urge the government to re-evaluate the failed enforcement strategy that has seen the number of contraband cigarettes double and put our youth at increased risk—

"MP for a Day" Competition
Statements By Members
May 31st, 2010 / 2 p.m.
André Bellavance Richmond—Arthabaska, QC
Mr. Speaker, today I would like to welcome Frédéric Michel, a student from the Cégep de Victoriaville, who won the 2010 "MP for a Day" competition.
This competition is part of a course that studies political life and systems. Its main goal is to interest youth in politics and allow them to learn more about public life.
This year, students had to write about the challenges related to agricultural policy. This gave them the opportunity to explore many of the issues faced by the agricultural sector.
I would like to thank Jean-François Léonard, the political science and geography teacher, with whom I organized the competition. I would also like to thank the Société Saint-Jean-Baptiste du Centre-du-Québec, the Sévégny-Baril duo from La Capitale as well as the UPA Centre-du-Quebec for their contributions to the scholarships awarded to Frédéric and the students who came in second and third, Maxime Labrie and Sarah L. Desrochers.
Oil Spills
Statements By Members
2 p.m.
Don Davies Vancouver Kingsway, BC
Mr. Speaker, as we watch the ongoing environmental devastation caused by the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico, now is the time for Canada to take proactive measures to prevent similar disasters from damaging Canadian shores.
We know oil spills are ecological disasters that impact entire ecosystems. They spread damage over thousands of kilometres of ocean and shoreline. They have a catastrophic impact, as fisheries are wiped out and communities are devastated and their damage lasts for decades, if not centuries.
We also know they are inevitable. Wherever oil is drilled or transported in tankers, accidents will happen. The question is not if, but when. On British Columbia's pristine coastline, this is far too high a price to pay.
Last year I introduced a bill to ban oil tankers in sensitive waters. I hope all members of the House support this effort at disaster prevention.
The government must also permanently legislate a moratorium on offshore oil and gas drilling in B.C. and the Arctic. The short-term economic benefit of offshore drilling is outweighed many times over by the economic impact of the inevitable spill and the permanent damage to our coastal ecosystem that would certainly result.

Jeff Watson Essex, ON
Mr. Speaker, Essex county is the hotbed for Canadian hockey talent. We might be the Florida of our country, but when it comes to hockey, no one does it better than our region.
For the second year in a row, the Windsor Spitfires have captured the Junior A Championship, the 92nd Memorial Cup. The Wheaties of Brandon were indeed the breakfast of Windsor champions Taylor Hall, the tournament's MVP, who, together with Spits defenceman Cam Fowler, are expected to be selected in the top five picks in the upcoming NHL entry draft, with 10 Spitfires expected to make NHL teams this year.
However, that is not all. The LaSalle Vipers captured the Junior B Championship, the Sutherland Cup. The Belle River Canadiens advanced to the finals of the Junior C Championship. The Canadian Hockey League named the town of Essex's Matt Puemple its rookie of the year.
It is true that Windsor-Essex is the automotive capital of Canada, but with this year's hockey successes, Windsor-Essex is centre ice for Canada's game.
Anniversary Congratulations

Irwin Cotler Mount Royal, QC
Mr. Speaker, I rise in commemoration and celebration of two historic anniversaries of landmark institutions in my riding and indeed in Quebec and the country as a whole.
The first is the centennial anniversary of Maimonides Geriatric Centre, affiliated with McGill University since 1979. The first psychogeriatric day hospital in both Canada and the United States, it is recognized for its high quality of care, its respect for the dignity of its clients and its incredible army of volunteers.
The second is the centennial anniversary of the Young Men's -- Young Women's Hebrew Association.
The institution popularly known as "the Y" was a second home for me on Mont-Royal Avenue when I was young. And now it has moved to my riding of Mount Royal.
It has evolved today into a state of the art fitness community and cultural centre that reaches out to all people regardless of race, religion, age and economic class.
I invite my colleagues to join me in paying tribute to these two incredible institutions, of which we are all their beneficiaries.
Étienne-Le Bel Clinical Research Centre
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Serge Cardin Sherbrooke, QC
Mr. Speaker, as the ongoing issues at Chalk River give us reason to worry about the future of the medical isotope supply, researchers at the Étienne-Le Bel Clinical Research Centre at CHUS and the Université de Sherbrooke's faculty of medicine have shown that technetium-99m can be produced using a cyclotron, which does not require highly enriched uranium and does not produce radioactive waste. Creating a decentralized cyclotron network would secure our supply of technetium. The Étienne-Le Bel Centre is already involved in building a new cyclotron, and the cost of setting up a pilot site in Sherbrooke will be just a fraction of that associated with nuclear reactors.
Not only are researchers at the Étienne-Le Bel Centre pioneers in this field, but they are also offering the government a solution on a silver platter. I support the Étienne-Le Bel Centre's proposal, and I hope that the government will be smart enough to do so too.

Ron Cannan Kelowna—Lake Country, BC
Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to rise and welcome four remarkable young girls from Kelowna, British Columbia who are here with us today to lead a children's march on Parliament Hill. The march will take place tomorrow at noon to commemorate International Children's Day and to highlight a child's right to education, protection, equality and health.
Cassandra Hinchliffe, Jenni Matheson, Amelia Leonard and founder Alaina Podmorow are members of Little Women for Little Women in Afghanistan. They are dedicated and committed to helping children around the world and are asking Canadians to do the same. In Alaina's own words, "Every single Canadian must take responsibility and take action....Each of us must make change".
Each member and senator in Parliament has received an invitation to join the march. I thank everyone who has already confirmed their attendance and thank the young ladies for their leadership and for providing hope and opportunity to children around the world. Education equals peace.

Earl Dreeshen Red Deer, AB
Mr. Speaker, ranchers in Alberta and Saskatchewan have fought through two tough years of drought. Today I am pleased to announce in the House that our government has committed over $114 million to help our ranchers buy feed while their damaged pastures recover.
Our farmers and ranchers are a hardy bunch and they take pride in their independence. Ranchers in my riding are in the heart of this area and this new funding will provide a much needed boost to them. This critical support is thanks to the hard work of our Minister of Agriculture as well as Alberta Minister Jack Hayden and his Saskatchewan counterpart. The Saskatchewan agriculture minister, Bob Bjornerud, said:
The drought had a major effect on livestock producers in the designated area and this initiative will help them address the resulting additional feed costs.
This is another example of how our government works together with its provincial counterparts to support our farm sector.
St. John's International Airport
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Siobhan Coady St. John's South—Mount Pearl, NL
Mr. Speaker, the St. John's International Airport is a gateway to the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. On occasion, however, adverse weather conditions hamper and delay air traffic. Not having the right airport landing equipment can cause diversions and delays, which are holding the airport back from reaching its full potential as an economic enabler.
For example, decisions regarding plant and office locations, the booking of large conferences and entertainment events are influenced by this frustrating problem. The airport authority seeks to enhance the landing equipment and infrastructure by the installation of a category 3 instrument landing system and related airfield infrastructure. This would increase availability to 98.91% and would place St. John's International Airport in the same usability range as other major Canadian airports.
In the first year of implementation, 700 arriving and departing flights would potentially be spared disruption due to adverse weather conditions. Clearly, these improvements at the airport would be a priority. I encourage the federal government to act quickly to enhance this vital transportation link.
Economic Growth
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Steven Blaney Lévis—Bellechasse, QC
Mr. Speaker, Statistics Canada announced today that the Canadian economy grew by 6.1% in the first quarter of 2010. This is the strongest quarterly rate in a decade.
Today's report shows that Canada's economic action plan is making our economy stronger and stronger.
With the tax relief granted by our government to help Canadian families, consumer spending has risen. Business investment has also increased thanks to our government's strong support for job creation.
The OECD and the International Monetary Fund are predicting that our economic growth will be the strongest of all the G7 countries this year and next.
Canada's economy is on the right track, but the global recovery remains fragile. We must complete Canada's economic action plan, which has the support of the Conservative members from Quebec.
While the Liberals have plans to raise taxes, our government is working hard to save jobs and maintain our economic growth.
Freedom Flotilla
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Bill Siksay Burnaby—Douglas, BC
Mr. Speaker, New Democrats are shocked and deeply saddened by the unacceptable loss of life and injuries sustained as a result of the raid by Israeli forces against the Freedom Flotilla of ships bringing aid to Gaza.
Our leader joins other international leaders in the call for an urgent and independent investigation into this terrible incident that jeopardizes the pursuit of peace in the region. He also calls on our Prime Minister to immediately lend Canada's voice to the rapidly growing call for this inquiry.
This violence further underlines the urgent need for a negotiated peace and resolution to the crisis in Gaza. New Democrats further call on the Canadian government to work with the international community to find an end to loss of life in this region.
Speaking personally, I hope that our Prime Minister took the opportunity he had today on the world stage to strongly express those concerns directly to the Prime Minister of Israel.
I extend my profound sympathy to the families of those who died and call on Israel to immediately release all those detained in this incident in international waters. Respect for those who seek peace must be fundamental to actions of all governments.
The Economy
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Tilly O'Neill-Gordon Miramichi, NB
Mr. Speaker, we heard that Canada has recorded its strongest quarterly rate of economic growth in a decade. Indeed, Canada posted the strongest first quarter growth in the entire G7. No wonder the OECD secretary-general singled out Canada for praise, saying:
I think Canada looks good—it shines, actually
Canada's economic action plan is having a major positive impact with its job-creating tax cuts, stimulus infrastructure projects, and much more. Our Conservative government's plan has helped create 285,000 jobs since last July.
The last thing our economy needs is a massive Liberal tax grab. While our plan is helping lead the way on jobs and growth, the Liberal plan to raise taxes would halt our recovery in its tracks, and according to experts, would kill almost 400,000 jobs. Canada's economy just cannot afford another Liberal tax grab.
Canada Elections Act
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Michel Guimond Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC
Mr. Speaker, some current members of the Conservative cabinet may have to say goodbye to their seats in the next election. This should be the case for the members for Louis-Saint-Laurent, Pontiac and Mégantic—L'Érable, who are all ministers, as well as the member for Beauce.
In fact, they may not even have the right to run. Why? Because they violated the Canada Elections Act by exceeding the allowable campaign expenses in 2006, which allowed them to unfairly promote the Conservative campaign platform.
It is probably this same desire that motivated the government to plaster economic action plan signs from coast to coast to coast at an outrageous cost of $42 million. When it comes to spreading propaganda about Conservative Reform ideas, the government does not balk at spending astronomical amounts.
No one should ignore the law. That applies to all citizens and even more so to Conservative ministers.

Effectively working with challenging clients who receive hunger service assistance: Case examples and eight recommended guidelines
Those who provide services for people who experience food insecurity come into contact with people who do not always present themselves courteously and favorably. Using case examples from the food bank industry, the authors of this paper will: (1) discuss why people sometimes behave discourteously when seeking assistance from human services professionals; (2) give case examples of how social workers could properly respond to these situations and, (3) give recommendations for effectively working with this client population.

Governor sets Sept. 10 for special election
Denver Chief District Judge Robert Hyatt has upheld the recall petitions against state Sens. Angela Giron, D-Pueblo, and John Morse, D-Colorado Springs, saying the petition wording was adequate under state law and the state constitution.
Gov. John Hickenlooper responded by setting Sept. 10 as the date of the special elections.
In his ruling, Hyatt swept aside the claim that recall petitions had to specificially include a demand for a replacement election. He noted the recall campaigns had relied on Secretary of State Scott Gessler's office to review and approve the petition language.
Citing previous court decisions, he said that a replacement election is inferred in the word "recall."
Hyatt also said "the meter begins running now" in terms of the recall calendar, meaning Hickenlooper needed to set the election date, which he did later in the day.
Hyatt's ruling took 40 minutes to read. He acknowledged that his decision may be appealed.
Victor Head, one of the recall organizers, said he didn't see how Hyatt could have ruled otherwise.
"I know the other side may appeal this to the (Colorado) Supreme Court, but hopefully we'll be done soon with lawyers and can get on with the election," he said.
Chris Shallow, manager of Giron's re-election campaign, said there would be an appeal to the state's high court, but in Pueblo, Giron supporters were now campaigning for her.
"Angela has a record of doing the right thing for Pueblo and we'll take that record to voters," he said.
Giron was at a water meeting in Gunnison during the court ruling Thursday but said by text message: "I'm ready for an election next week, next month, or next year."
Pueblo County Clerk Gilbert "Bo" Ortiz said he had recommended Sept. 10 as the special election day for Giron. He expected the governor's office to announce the date sometime Thursday afternoon.
Becky Mizel, chairman of the Pueblo County Republicans, said their candidate, George Rivera, has gathered the 1,000 voter signatures needed to qualify for the special election ballot.

In an effort to get rescued animals adopted and to spread adoption awareness, Monica Nolan, the shelter director at the Ventura County Animal Shelter in California, has opened up a new pet adoption shop at the local mall, the Thousand Oaks Acorn reports.
Nolan had been protesting against pet stores that received their animals from puppy mills for years, because while working at the shelter, she saw countless - more than 10,000 pets a year - brought to the shelter and forgotten.
She then got the idea to open up a shelter shop at the mall to help these deserving pets get adopted. Nolan spoke with members of the NewMark Merrill Companies, which owns the nearby Janss Marketplace mall, and after hearing her idea, the company decided to donate a vacant storefront to set up the Bark Avenue Foundation pet shop.
The group also received a $15,000 grant from The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) to run the store. The shop will house 20 dogs and 6 bunnies at a time and will have windows for the animals to look out.
"We're excited for this pet shop showing dogs and bunnies in a setting which will bring new customers," Nolan told the publication. "When you take animals from a shelter to a retail environment, people will see that shelter pets are regular animals."
According to the ASPCA, there are currently between 5 and 7 million animals, many of whom are in great pet health, looking for forever homes in shelters across the nation.

As the school year draws to a close in South America, hundreds of students are celebrating completion of their two-year English Access program, and recognizing how much Access has done for them beyond developing proficiency in a new language. During a visit last week, I had the chance to meet some of these students in Peru and Paraguay. They expressed themselves with confidence when we spoke English together, and reflected thoughtfully on their experience in essays on "What English Access Means to Me."
At the Instituto Cultural Peruano Norteamericano in the northwest Peruvian city of Chepen, the Access graduates-to-be talk knowledgeably about important figures in U.S. history such as Benjamin Franklin (for whom the Institute's school is named), celebrate U.S. holidays, develop an awareness of civic responsibility, and dream about their future. The Centro Cultural Paraguayo Americano in San Lorenzo, outside Asunción, is the namesake of Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Access students, with the graduating students leading and coaching the beginners, debated persuasively in English on the topic, "Christopher Columbus: Hero or Villain?"
Both institutes are part of the extensive network of binational centers (BNCs) in Latin America, with more than 170 locations. The BNC model is unique to the region, locally operated and dedicated to promoting closer ties between the host country and the United States.
The English Access students, on a two-year scholarship sponsored by the U.S. government, are in high school and study English several hours a week in addition to their regular academic courses.
Ana, a student in Chepen, wrote in her essay: "Study at ICPNA changed my point of view about learning a second language." Her Access class, she said, "was and will be a big opportunity for me to be a better person." Another student, Diana, found that "ICPNA has changed my way of thinking about my plans. Now not only do I think about finishing my career and a good college, but also going to the U.S. for specialization in one of the many prestigious universities. That is one of my dreams." Roxana said, "I have already been in situations when I had no option but to speak in English and I could do that because I belong to the Access program. The program has helped me to be a brave person. . . Now I am self-confident and I am sure that English can open doors for me." Marcia related that ". . .the Access program was one of the best experiences of my life. Why? Because this was not only to learn English but also to keep in touch with American history and culture, which is amazing for me. I admire and enjoy everything about the United States of America. Its story has gotten my attention."
Thousands of miles away in Paraguay, Access students shared similar stories of growing in knowledge, self-confidence, and sense of connection to the United States. Two Access students from the CCPA, Astrid and Joel, are stars in their class and look forward to practicing what they've learned when they visit the United States in January with 11 fellow Paraguayan students as Youth Ambassadors. During their three weeks in the United States, they will learn about leadership and develop their ideas for community service projects. At the age of 16, they already have a strong belief in themselves and in the constructive change they can bring about in their country. Their path is a dynamic example of how doors of opportunity, awareness, and growth that begin in the classroom can lead wherever the students' ambition and determination may take them.

For those Americans looking to teach English in South Ameica, it's as easy as taking a 4 week TEFL certification course to become qualified (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). International TEFL Academy www.internationalteflacademy.com is one of the largest TEFL certification schools in the world with over 1,200 annual graduates and offers lifetime job guidance assistance to teach around the world.

Actually, Access is an amazing program. I have learned a lot of things and I'm pretty sure I will use all those things in the future.This is not just an English program.This is a very useful tool because we learn about culture and we also learn how to help people with community service. I'm really thankful with the embassy because they gave me an awesome key to open too many doors in the future and also now I can do too many things that I couldn't do before. I'm really proud of all of us who worked hard to achieve our goals and Access help us to make our dreams come true.

USA Taekwondo formed a task force consisting of USAT Referees, USAT member coaches and an AAC representative to evaluate the Junior Safety Rules (JSR) and how they pertain to the new WTF Cadet (12-14 year olds) divisions.
After review and discussion from this task force, USA Taekwondo will proceed with the following recommendations for the 2013 event season:
Athletes who are eligible to compete at the USAT National Championships (those qualifying by competing at a 2013 USAT State Championship) can choose what Cadet National Championship division is appropriate for their skill level at the time of registration. Athletes cannot compete in both divisions. Winners of Cadet Grass Roots divisions will not move to the corresponding Cadet World Class divisions.
If athletes are interested in making the 2013 USAT Cadet National Team and/or competing at the yet to be announced WTF Cadet World Championships, they must compete in the World Class division. Once they make an announcement, proper procedures will be made to have this team compete at the event.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.
