Good Samaritans honored by police
KINGSPORT, Tenn. - A fiery car crash in Kingsport this weekend claimed the lives of two people, and police believe if it hadn't been for Good Samaritans at the scene more lives would have been lost.
58-year-old Walter Bellamy passed away Tuesday. His wife and son are still in the hospital. Their car, along with the one police say hit them at 104 miles per hour, burst into flames.
Chris Faber and four other men who were at the scene did everything they could to save the family by pulling them from the burning SUV.
We've learned the group of brave men will receive official recognition from the Kingsport Police Department. "At first when I pulled up I thought I needed to stay back because [the car] was on fire, but as soon as I realized there were still people in there, it just shut off and I was worried about the people in there," says Chris Faber.
The five men, all Tri-Cities residents, will get a citizens' award and be honored at an upcoming city board meeting.
The Good Samaritans tried to get the driver out of the car that hit the SUV, but couldn't because of all the flames.
That person's names hasn't yet been released.

Arab-American Congressman Attacked as 'Good for the Middle East'
West Virginia Rep. Nick Rahall, a Christian of Lebanese descent, has naturally been accused of loving the terrorists all election season. Here's his opponent's latest attack: "Nick Rahall: good for the Middle East, good for Obama — bad for America."
Rahall has represented West Virginia in Congress since 1977, and is probably used to this shit every couple of years. This year, however, he's in a tight race against some punk named "Spike" Maynard, who, along with outside Republican groups, has been running racist Islamophobic crap ads against his Christian opponent who was born in West Virginia. (One ad criticized Rahall for heading up the "Arab-Americans for Obama" group in 2008. What did they plot in this group?)
So what are the claims in this latest ad? Well, the strongest one says that some convicted terrorist donated money to Rahall. Scary! And yet:
The problem with the ad? Democratic Rep. Nick Rahall gave the money away years ago, although the same man gave money to the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), which has endorsed Maynard as one of its "Young Guns."
You all remember the Young Guns, yes? Shit-hot, they are. And their sexy ranks are expanding. And they're all terrible.

Skip to comments.post-Sandy message to Obama regarding the gasoline situation in New Jersey
Posted on 11/02/2012 4:32:21 AM PDT by NewJerseyJoe
I dare The Obama to come back to New Jersey, to visit our gas stations and tell us some more of his ideas about wind and solar and renewable energy -- and explain again why he killed the Keystone pipeline -- and talk about why he cancelled oil leases on federal lands -- and discuss why his rogue EPA has shut down oil refineries -- and remind us about his illegal moratorium on drilling in the Gulf ... I dare him, I say. In fact, I double dare him.
The biggest problem New Jersey is going to have comes from their anti-"gouging" laws. Holding prices artificially low just creates shortages faster and makes them last longer.
The photo op is done and O is back on the campaign trail. Meanwhile, NJ, NY, PA, CT are left to clean up the mess, on their own. These are all "blue" states and O takes it for granted that, with or without aid, they are already in his column. Do you think there is enough misery, post Sandy, that voters will shift their votes to Romney? There is nothing like the reality check of a disaster to remold a person's voting decision. Wouldn't that be a stunner if Romney took any one of those states :-)
What does it say under "ROMNEY"?
Obama owns this storm clean up
been trying to make that out for two days...*LOL*
I am sure his buddy Christie will do it for him.
...it look's like the first three letters blown up USA....
Absolutely. Unfortunately, few people understand this, and it's easy to appeal to emotion.
On Fox and Friends this morning, a reporter was breathlessly reporting $5.99/gal prices at a NJ gas station that "just shut down after it saw our truck!" "People are waiting in line, but they don't know that the station just closed!"
Yeah, because of you, dumbass!
The station owner could have used the extra income to pay for expedited gas deliveries. But now he can't, thanks to the stupid, college-educated, economically illiterate, reporter.
If there are no skirts to hide behind, no mommy to run to for cover, it's just a sissy in a PR shell provided by others.
The only 'magic' about the manchurian muslim traitor is the facade built by 'his' handlers for and on the backs of so depressingly many witless humanoids.
They say their are gas shortages in NJ. But it surely is not the whole state. Is it just coastal regions? and areas still without power? and how extensive are the out of power regions of the state at this point?
I assume that if you live less than 20 miles from the state of Pennsylvania you have no gas line problems.
LOL... Yep. I saw that.
Let the price roll on up to ten or fifteen bucks and gas will start flowing into NJ from all over. Sure, it'll be spendy but there will be gas.
No. The majority of voters there are too stupid to realize that there are consequences associated with who wins elections. The trouble with the majority of Masshole , New York etc. voters is that they're too stupid to realize how stupid they are. There is a proven effect that dumbasses actually think that they're smarter than average. They're too stupid to associate cause and effect. They have their magic black man, and just because his sole magic trick was to turn a down economy further into the crapper, they have not lost faith. I'll bet you not one of them could answer "What has he done in the last four years that you want to see more of?" with anything like a rational answer.
Think gas is expensive? How much would you pay not to have to push your car a mile?
...Stop Obama Billboard....
This made my day. I wonder how many of these billboards are out there? Where is this billboard at?
You know, I live in CT, and Hurricane Irene was a bit smaller than than Sandy, but caused a ton of damaged in New England. However, I definately don't remember obama visiting CT or Vermont to personally inspect the damage.
Media please spare me that obama stopped campaigning for the Hurricane Sandy and put politics aside. He doesn't visit and personally inspect every area a CAT 1 hurricane strikes. Actually, I think this maybe his first catastrophe he ever responded to.
Along with the gas issue, didn't we hear Obozo say he had all the assets standing by waiting for the storm to be over?
Why are people having to eat out of dumpsters? Where is the water? Why are there still bodies lying around on Staten Island? If this had been a Republican president the media would be screaming bloody murder!!
There are 2 huge generators sitting in Central Park for that stupid Marathon this weekend. Why aren't they somewhere powering a couple of gas stations?
Instead of concentrating on feeding and housing people, why are those idiots wasting their time planning the Obozo campaign concert? Springsteen, Bon Jovi, etc are going to get together tonight and bad mouth Romney, and tell America (under the guise of raising money for the storm damaged areas) what a wonderful president Obozo has been.
The situation is already much worse than Katrina, and deteriorating further
I just can't muster up much sympathy for a bunch of whiners who had over a week's warning that this storm was coming, and didn't fill their gas tanks, plus an extra 5 gal. can.
How damn stupid, and lazy are these people?
In snow country, we keep our trucks full most of the time, and always have an extra 5-100 gals. on hand. It's not that hard. Shades of Katrina, all over again, or as we say up here....dumbass liberals.
What? You mean Obama and the greenies didn't harness the wind power from Sandy? She could've powered the east coast for several years and run the government motors Chevy volts to boot. Absent that...institute Plan B...harness the windbag elitist POS politicians. Put a harness on them, a bit in their mouth and ride them until they drop dead.
On his Thursday program, Rush Limbaugh cited a story coming from lower Manhattan. Despite a community with no power, a Chinese restaurant owner managed to use a generator to power up his kitchen and serve food, by candlelight, to local area residents. Guess who showed up? NYC Health Inspectors arrived, carrying flashlights, purportedly to ensure the food met with city guidelines.
Necessity is the mother of invention. Government is always there to block it.
Maybe a hashtag? It looks like a "#"

Skip to comments.All charges against Dominique Strauss Kahn set to be dropped
Posted on 08/21/2011 3:56:43 PM PDT by Niuhuru
Prosecutors are reportedly set to ask a judge to abandon the case against Dominique Strauss Kahn. Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance is preparing to ask that all charges against the former head of the IMF accused of attempting to rape hotel maid Nafissatou Diallo are dropped Tuesday.
Such requests from the DA 'are never denied', an expert told the New York Post meaning Strauss-Kahn could finally return to his home country after being forced to remian in the U.S for months.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
Imagine not one but two utterly sick people consuming so much ink and court time.
The guy might be total scum, but she is worse. She has destroyed his reputation and now it looks like he will not be able to fulfill his dream of serving his country as President of France. It might not seem much to you, or others on here, but for him this has destroyed a dream of leading his country.
IIRC, Michael Savage called this one pretty much from the get go.
The minute she asked for money, that was when she blew it big time. Money over justice, I bet the whole thing was a total lie.
Thanks Niuhuru
Definately. I wasn't as sure that he was guilty either; as it is, someone who started talking about the way to get money with a criminal boyfriend set off an alarm, plus other circumstantial behavior. Strauss-Khan didn't seem too eager to get away from the scene of the crime to me.
Your welcome; it's good to know that an innocent man will not be going to jail and I'm optimistic his reputation will be restored. I just hope he might be able to become President of France, despite all of this. Those idiots who marched in the parade denouncing rape (and rich white men) are going to look (and hopefully feel) like total morons.
Oh, I understand that this has destroyed in the short-term his goal of running to become President of France (no guarantee he'd have won). He could probably, in time and given the nature of this particular charge, overcome the damage to his reputation. The other stories that emerged publicly, tho, will be harder for him to deal with if he wants to pursue a political career.
To me, one of the absolute worst things anyone can do is to set out to destroy another's reputation. Unfortunately for Mr Strauss Kahn, he IS, and was known widely - as in open secrets - to be a sleazeball. He's no Ray Donovan.
Whoa wait a minute Partner. I agree this woman was garbage, but this guy did actually have some sort of sex with her and has a history of harrassment a mile long.Obviously his marriage means little to him.
He is no hero to be leading a country, he is a POS who got what he had been asking for for years, Only his money has saved him now from prison.
He deserved to be taken down a peg and France is lucky.
"Unfortunately for Mr Strauss Kahn, he IS, and was known widely - as in open secrets - to be a sleazeball. Hes no Ray Donovan."
True, but even those with perfect reputations can be a lot worse. Now that he is vindicated, I am sure that he will be able to work on fixing things up, like going on television and talking about it frankly in interviews and also make sure that all and sundry know that it was false. He must thank his lucky stars that he had the resources to protect himself.
"His dream of being able to molest whoever he wants with impunity?" The guy's immoral. not who we need leading France or leading the local gas station.
It doesn't matter who or what the dude is. What this and so many other cases demonstrate is that the accused male is presumed to be guilty. There was an article in the WSJ a couple of days ago about instructions to that effect from Obambi's Dept. of Education to all colleges accepting Federal aid (in practice almost all colleges and universities in the country.) The sleazeballs are those of us who fall for this policy and have fallen for it in this case and all other recent cases.
How soon they forget.
He was on a plane and in his haste to get on a plane left a cell phone behind.
He has no good reputation to restore, Niuhuru. And certainly not a reputation that one would want for the head of the IMF or for president of any allied country. It's not only that he was an alley cat, like Clinton, but also that he chose women not in a position, either financially or politically, to fight back.
He wasn't guilty of this charge, but his reputation as a sleazy scumbag long preceded this story. His victims were shut up, as in the daughter of his political ally, or young women who worked in positions subordinate to his. There's not much good to be said for him, other than that he did not commit this particular crime.
And I'm not sure why you'd be so anxious for a Socialist to be elected President of France ???
If France is lucky the political opposition will slip him a hemlock on the flight home.
Glad that the legal system works as it should, but he's still an unquestioned scumbag who probably should consider himself very lucky.
He is a scum-bag and she is a scum-bagette.
They both deserve whatever they got or didn't get.
The reason she thought she could pull this scam off is no doubt because she, or someone working with her, knew he has a history as a sexual predator who has avoided accountability because of his wealth and connections.
The real significance of her claim now is the fact the well publicized charges emboldened others he has victimized to come forth and finally tell their stories of his sexual assaults.
The case of the diplomat vs the grifter. The defense alleges she may have been doubling up as a prostitute in the hotels she worked. There is a thin line between guilt and innocence when it comes to a charge of raping a prostitute.It hinges on whether the check bounced.Incarcerate him, deport her. Next case, please.
I consider him a scummoid too; all I do know is that being an a$$hole is no justification for him to be convicted if he is innocent. I'm a little testy about being falsely accused since I have had my brushes with idiots saying all sorts of all and sundry about me.
"The guy might be total scum, but she is worse. "
This could not have turned out better! Two scum balls with one shot! Since Strauss-Kahn has been a stalker his whole life, it's fitting that one of his number has been able to bring him down. France can do a whole lot better.
Actually you're quite right about that, when I think about it. It's the biggest irony of all really in the end.
the accused male is presumed to be guilty..."There was an article in the WSJ a couple of days ago about instructions to that effect from Obambis Dept. of Education to all colleges accepting Federal aid (in practice almost all colleges and universities in the country.)"
I think there was a case where the accuser was criminally charged, the accused was not, yet the university sided with her and punished the accused!
Were you listening when the hotel maid called in and said this was a common scam among "housekeepers" in NYC? It was when the lynch mob was riding high. She could barely speak English, but she had it pegged when the "intelligentsia" (Left & Right) were 95% full of it.
And so at long last we will bid adieu to Monsieur Rutting Chimpanzee. Could he be persuaded to take Ms. Diallo with him? French wives are infinitely understanding of that sort of thing.
Had he never pulled his pecker out of his pants his dream would still live.
Why men, who have so much to lose, do this is beyond me.
Why any man would do this is beyond me!!!!!!!!!
It's not like there aren't enough 'services' that provide this sort of thing, minus the threat of a lawsuit or charges. Why do this? He was close to leaving for France and then possibly running for office in France. When will these men learn that each time they are unfaithful, consensual even, they are putting everything they have at risk. They don't just ruin their own reputations and lives, but that of their family as well. There are more than enough movies out there about crazy mistresses attacking the wife and they often have these perfect, beautiful wives who are highly accomplished and madly in love with them. They have it all, everything. After Clinton, I am amazed at how they still ruin their lives the way they do.
You mean he's no longer considered a chaud lapin?
Dominique Strauss-Kahn is a life long SOCIALIST! The last thing France , or any country needs is a Socialist and his SOCIALIST PARTY running it.
DSK is not innocent. DSK is a serial sexual predator with a long and documented history of harassment and sexual abuse and attempted rape of women in France.
This is Free Republic - we support conservatives here, not Socialists! Are you sure you are posting your Socialist propaganda on the right site? I'm sure you would be more than welcome at DU or Daily Kos.

Fiona Sheales, British Museum
The past 60 years have seen the emergence and development of a dynamic and unique art form in coastal towns situated close to Accra, the capital of Ghana in West Africa.
This trend began in 1951 when two carpenters decided to honour their late grand-mother's dream to fly by burying her in a coffin shaped in the form of an aeroplane. Soon other families began to commission other coffins that represented the life achievements or aspirations of deceased relatives, or characterised aspects of their personality.
Many coffins take the form of traditional status symbols such as this eagle which is believed to have been inspired by the eagle-shaped palanquins used to carry chiefs on important public occasions. A coffin of this shape would therefore be suitable for the burial of a man of some social standing in his community.
This eagle coffin was made in 2000 in the workshop of Paa Joe (full name Joseph Tetteh Ashong) by a team of specialist carpenters. Paa Joe was one of the first craftsmen to make representational coffins, which are all hand-made on commission. Plans, photographs and sketches are rarely used, instead the components are drawn directly on to the wood which is then sawn out, planed and painted. In some cases up to 20 individually cut and shaped pieces of wood are required to form the shape of the coffin, depending on the model ordered. The eagle coffin's body, lid and base are carved from the hardwood of the wawa tree (triplochiton scleraxylon) which does not crack and resists attacks from insects. The two wings are carved from separate pieces of wood and are joined to the body using metal hinges which allow them to be folded down flat or to be extended.
In Ghana, death is traditionally viewed as a transition from the world of the living to that of the ancestors. Ancestors are believed to exert influence and power over their living relatives so it is important to show them love and respect. One of the ways of doing this is to bury deceased family members in expensive coffins and hold big funerals. On the day of the funeral the deceased is processed through town to the graveside and large crowds of mourners will have the opportunity to see the coffin for the first time.
Although traditional subjects such as the eagle remain popular, casket choices reflect changing fashions and social aspirations. Modern consumer goods such as laptops and mobile phones provide the models for innovative new coffin shapes.
The popularity of these so-called fantasy coffins continues to grow and has stimulated a thriving industry in Ghana. Thanks to the Internet, fantasy coffins can now be ordered online and are exported all over the world to meet the needs of the diasporic Ghanaian community.
This was first published in the London Evening Standard 15 November 2012.
The Eagle coffin from Ghana is on display in Room 24: Living and Dying

Submission of Part II dissertations
You will be required to submit the following:
- Two paper copies of the dissertation
- A PDF version of the dissertation
- Source code
- Supervisor's Report Form
Further details are given below.
Paper copies of the dissertation
Two paper copies of the dissertation must be submitted to the Student Administrator by the 12 noon deadline. The penalty for late submission is extremely severe.
Electronic submission of dissertation and source code
In addition, students are required to submit electronically both a PDF version of their dissertation (which must be the same as the paper version), and their source code.
For this, you should use the
The Student Administrator will let you know when the upload site is live, shortly before the deadline. It requires a login using your Raven password, is very easy to use and should be self-explanatory, but you are strongly advised to try some test uploads in advance of the deadline; you can delete and replace any file that you upload any time before the deadline.
As mentioned in the Briefing Document, the required format for the dissertation is PDF. If you are using the MCS you may find useful the Computing Service hints on using the MCS for producing PDF files.
You should upload your source code by means of the above site, in the form of a zip or tar.gz file.
The deadline for uploading the dissertation document and source code package is 17:00 on the day of the deadline for submission of the paper copies.
Note: Examiners can access the uploaded files at /anfs/www-uploads/diss-part2/ = \\filer\www-uploads\diss-part2.
Supervisor's Report Form
Finally, a completed Supervisor's Report Form is needed from each student. Section A should be completed by the student, and Sections B and C by the Supervisor and Director of Studies. Please try to get this completed and submitted to Student Administration at the same time as the printed copies of the dissertation. If this is not possible, then the absolute deadline for submission of the form is 16:00 on the Wednesday following the main deadline.
Frequently asked questions
- Why am I being asked to submit an electronic copy of my dissertation?
- This is mainly to help the Examiners. Some prefer to read the paper version, while others may need to read the dissertation from outside Cambridge.
- Why am I being asked to submit my source code?
- The Examiners may need to refer to it for clarification of statements made in the dissertation, or they may wish to study it in advance of a viva voce examination.
- Who will have access to my dissertation and source code?
- While your work is being marked, access is restricted to those with a need-to-know: the Examiners and directly involved support staff. Afterwards, you can delete the files that you have uploaded via the upload page. Any files that you do not delete may be archived by the department eventually and looked up by members of the department.
- How long will you keep the electronic copy of my dissertation?
- You will be able to delete your files shortly after the work of the examiners has finished, see the upload page for the deadlines. Any files that you do not delete may be archived by the department; in particular project supervisors might be interested in refering to them in future. You are also welcome to replace any of your uploaded files with a corrected archival version.
- What if I uploaded my dissertation in time electronically but missed the deadline for the paper version?
- This will not make any difference. Penalties apply to the hardcopy submission, so if you are running short of time you should concentrate on getting the paper copies completed and submitted by the 12 noon deadline. You will then have another 5 hours to deal with the electronic uploading.
- Does the submitted source code have to include all the extra stuff used to build the programs (e.g., makefiles, support files) or just the source code itself?
- Examiners need to have access to source code you have created or substantially modified and this would tend to include makefiles created by hand, but not automatically generated files, or files available elsewhere. The same consideration applies to other supporting files that embody important functions, but not to files containing just data. Given that files are created in all sorts of ways, such as binary files created using a GUI, it is hard to be more precise. Certainly, it is not expected that you provide everything needed to replicate fully a working instance of the work.
- What if the code is covered by NDA?
- Uploading the source code is the default, but we recognise that a very few students may have difficulties with this because of an NDA. In this case, please provide your source code on a CD, which will be returned to you or destroyed after the examination.
- What if the PDF of my dissertation is too big for uploading?
- Excessive PDF file size is often the result of inappropriate handling of included images. Please check whether their resolution, compression levels and file formats are all reasonable for A4 laser printing.

The problem with having a B-Greek composition forum would be several.
(1) Any new composition forum dilutes the current three forums which see some of this traffic.
ΔΙΑΛΟΓΟΙ ΑΤΤΙΚΟΙ https://plus.google.com/communities/107777898399557980319?cfem=1 (No Chat)
Schola: http://schola.ning.com/ (associated with ΔΙΑΛΟΓΟΙ ΑΤΤΙΚΟΙ) Chat (Only Hebrew, Latin, Ancient Greek allowed)
ΣΧΟΛΗ http://sxole.com (Chat, Blogs, more)
Textkit's Composition Forum: http://www.textkit.com/greek-latin-forum/viewforum.php?f=28
Some people have been trying to have video chat sessions.
Living Koine (on Google+) https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/116296844861689639823
On Textkit there are classes in composition, once in a while. The Greek Study Group (an email list - http://www.quasillum.com/study/greekstudy.php) will sometimes have a class if someone asks. I ran one once there, Most use Sedgewick, but that assumes a full one to two years of prior grammar.
(2) Most people who use the speaking methodology as a class are involved in a college or have a site that tries to build resources - which cost money - so they offer content at cost:
The Biblical Language Center http://www.biblicallanguagecenter.com/immersion-courses/
The Conversational Koine Institute http://www.conversationalkoine.com/
As online teaching becomes more entrenched and internet speed and apps like Google+, GoToMeeting, Skype, etc. get more savvy, you will see more of these types of courses. To have Skype, etc. have more that x number of people, the teacher has to pay for their online meeting software, so there is cost there also. Hope this helps a little.
(3) People who are skilled at Greek, do not participate, at least with their real name, because they are often embarrassed or don't think those methods (spoking or writing) are worth the time or effort for the reward.

This Staff working paper explores potential synergies in deploying fiber optic cables for data transmission and other infrastructures, chiefly transport and energy. It provides information on the cost of deploying fibre optics, exploring potential win-win strategies in the co-deployment and cohabitation of fibre and transport infrastructure and drawing lessons from good practices in the Asia- Pacific region and beyond. It contains a set of key policy measures to maximize win-win outcomes, which include synergies with the Asian Highway and Trans-Asian Railway.
The Asian Highway database is a joint effort by the secretariat and member countries to monitor the development of the Asian Highway network. The Asian Highway database includes comprehensive and detailed data and information on Asian Highway routes in member countries and benchmarks their development status against the Asian Highway design standards stipulated in Annex II to the Intergovernmental Agreement on the Asian Highway Network.
Stats Brief, November 2014, Issue no. 02
This paper examines the agenda of this year's G20 Brisbane summit – namely, to promote strong economic growth and employment outcomes and to make the global economy more resilient to future shocks – in the context of key policy debates in the Asia-Pacific region and the discussions of the United Nations post-2015 development agenda. In particular, priority areas related to investment and infrastructure, trade, employment, financial inclusion and remittances, financial regulatory reforms, international tax cooperation and anti-corruption measures, and energy markets are explored.
Coal has been one of the fastest growing fuels since the beginning of the 21st century. Amongst its largest consumers are countries of North-East Asia, a vast and diverse sub-region which includes just six countries: China, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Japan, Mongolia, the Republic of Korea and the Russian Federation. Altogether, these countries consume approximately 60% of the coal produced worldwide.
An official statistician reading the proposal of the Open Working Group (OWG) for Sustainable Development Goals might have two simultaneous reactions: doubt and excitement. The proposal that the UN General Assembly's 30-member OWG forwarded to the Assembly on 19 July 2014 contains 17 goals with 169 targets covering a broad range of sustainable development issues, including ending poverty and hunger, improving health and education, making cities more sustainable, combating climate change, and protecting oceans and forests.
This note reviews the emerging imbalances in the Chinese economy and the attendant need for structural reforms, including financial sector and services liberalization. The role that the recently launched Shanghai Free Trade Zone could play in accelerating these reforms is then considered, alongside an assessment of progress to date.
Bridging Transport, ICT and Energy Infrastructure Gaps for Seamless Regional Connectivity, is a contribution by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) to deliberations at the Second United Nations Conference on Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDCs) in Vienna, Austria, from 3 to 5 November 2014.
Advances in technology and logistics have helped boost economies around the world, but have not removed the main challenge faced by the 12 landlocked developing countries (LLDCs) in Asia, namely Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bhutan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, the Lao People's Democratic Republic, Mongolia, Nepal, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. With no access to the sea, these countries must conduct their trade through neighbouring countries, which results in added costs.
The Asia-Pacific Development Journal (APDJ) is published twice a year by the Macroeconomic Policy and Development Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP).
The primary objective of the APDJ is to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge, experience, ideas, information and data on all aspects of economic and social development issues and concerns facing the region and to stimulate policy debate and assist in the formulation of policy.

Converse Jack Purcell Leather
"I wore these sneakers one time and the back of the right shoe dug into my heel. When I took the sneaker off, my sock was completely eaten through and there was blood all over the sneaker. I've purchased Converse canvas many times and have never had an issue about fit, let alone damaging my foot. However, I will not purchase Jack Purcell leather sneakers again. Hopefully DSW will return them even though they were worn outside. They are defective."

Smallmouth or largemouth it doesn't matter, weightless over shallow grass , weighted on the outside edge, deadly on a football head dragged over rocks, as a chatterbait trailer, on a A-rig, Carolina rigged, or flipped in the grass.

"And yet, we let it slip. We end up eating lunch in front of the TV with our laptop open. We browse Twitter and Facebook, whilst sending emails, and chatting in multiple Gchat windows too. When really we should be focusing on just that one assignment, blog post, proposal or piece of code.
"So one thing is for sure, we are all aware multitasking different things at the same time makes us less efficient. Why the heck is it so hard to focus on just one thing then?

Know Your Staff: The South Coast Buying Department
By Robb Bailey
Buying surf clothing and accessories for a living may sound like a dream job for most surfers. The job seems simple on the surface: preview big-name surf apparel lines like Hurley and Billabong months before the general public sees them, choose what will be sold in the stores, and use the shop's cash to make it happen. Sounds like a cake walk right? Think again. Factor in yearly budgets, floor space consideration, and shipping logistics, and the job quickly turns into a calculated fine art.
The South Coast buying department boasts 32 years of collective retail experience to get it done right. With four booming shop locations plus a closeout store to consider, South Coast buyer Heather Lamb runs a tight ship. Her day consists of scheduling appointments with reps, viewing upcoming seasons' clothing lines and submitting purchase orders to the vendors with her choices. In an industry where it's common to have an open door policy, South Coast's buying department requires reps to show their line at a scheduled time.
Similar sized retail operations may employ as many as five buyers to fill the role of Heather's single position. Her day is busy and time management is essential. "On a typical day, I will have a rep come in with their rolling rack and show me the upcoming line around six months before they're ready to ship (our order)." Pre-booking orders ensures the vendor makes enough of the designs Heather selects, so when the order ships from overseas, the quantity she specified is already set aside for South Coast Surf Shops to sell in their stores. That doesn't mean the South Coast veteran just gets to shop all day long. Some days are dedicated to doing whatever it takes to make the business succeed.
Leading the department means doing everything from cleaning out the receiving warehouse to sale tagging, to sending returns back to the vendor. You can even find Heather working the floor and helping customers during the holiday season, which is where she got her start 19 years ago. She can't do it all herself, so she oversees a team of assistants to help the buying department succeed.
Kimmy Lamb (Heather's sister) came to South Coast two years ago in a position handling transfers between South Coast stores. She now spends her time acting as the Credits & Returns Manager. Another addition to the South Coast family, Ashley Bilsten, came when a Purchase Order position opened up about a year ago. Both girls' positions are essential in the buying process. "After Heather writes what she wants to buy from each line, I enter it all into the computer. Then we submit the purchase orders to the rep," Ashley commented on her role. In addition to their support roles to Heather, Kimmy and Ashley split the Assistant Buyer responsibilities. As a team the two oversee purchasing of all sunglasses and accessories.
All three girls seem to have an acute sense of what sells in the shops. "Sometimes we order depending on demographic," Kimmy Lamb remarked on product placement. "Like in our Wahines store–our all-girls store–there's more of a tourist crowd, and we can put more fashion forward stuff in there; it does well."
Likewise, Heather and company are putting more organic products in their Ocean Beach locations. Companies like Sector 9, Simple, and Eco-Lips are creating eco-friendly products that South Coast is carrying to cater to their earth-concious customer base there. When asked about emerging trends in the surf apparel industry, Heather noted that five years ago the major lines pretty much consisted of men's boardshorts, some tees, and that was pretty much it. Now everyone is moving fashion forward, and every men's line has added women's clothing because more women are identifying with the surfing lifesyle. The vendors are paying attention to that.
With companies like Nixon (who sells a $1400 ruby-faced watch), and Volcom (who now sells men's dress suits aimed at prom-goers) leading the movement, more of the same is coming. Heather sees this fashion trend growing in the future because surfing has become more mainstream. "People want to dress like surfers. Five years ago you could tell who the surfers were by the way they dressed, but now it's a lifestyle thing for more people. People want the look. Even more guys are starting to pay attention (to fashion)."
It's not always about work with these three though, and they enjoy the social aspect of their jobs just as much. With guest invites to various surf industry events, such as the Billabong XXL Awards, the girls get perks. Good perks. Ashley added, "We get the treatment from the reps sometimes. They want you to get excited about their product. They love us because South Coast always shows up!" And show up they do. To show their appreciation, Reef invited the South Coast employees to a cruise around the bay with Rob Machado and other Reef team riders. South Coast showed in good numbers.
Heather summed up her love for the work that she's been doing for nearly 20 years, "The best part about my job is making friends with the reps and the people I work with. It's just so much fun. After awhile it becomes like one big family."

"The story below could happen to you or anybody."
That's how Lynn Tran starts the tale of her oceanfront treehouse, a "childhood dream" that has soured into a "headache, heartache." She and her husband, Richard Hazen, have been told that if they don't dismantle the treehouse, they're going to have to pay fines of $500 a day.
She and Hazen built the treehouse -- "really just a dressed-up, glorified two-story deck," reports Fox 13 of Tampa Bay -- on their property on Anna Maria Island in Florida, overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. They spent about $20,000 on it and, they say, had Holmes Beach's permission.
But they didn't get it in writing.
According to the account on the couple's website, CoolTreeHouse.com, Hazen did go to the city building department in 2011 seeking a permit, but the building official there -- after consulting colleagues in front of Hazen -- told him a permit wasn't necessary. So they went ahead and built.
That official is no longer with the department, and the new official says they do need a permit. And they can't have one, because the treehouse violates a number of codes, he says.
Coastal zoning comes into play too, so the state is also involved. And there's the small matter of hurricanes and structural safety to consider.
Plus, Hazen and Tran make their living as owners of Angelinos Sea Lodge, where they live in the main house and rent out four cottages. At least initially, they apparently intended to let guests use the treehouse. (They say now that it's strictly for their private use, but in November 2011 the Islander community weekly quoted her as saying: "It was just built for the private use of guests and my own use.")
It's a complicated case that's been tangled in bureaucracy since November 2011.
And for many homeowners, it's likely to strike a chord. Many of us feel powerless against City Hall, subject to its arbitrary whims.
This particular case, though, may be a little more nuanced. First, it sounds as if Hazen, in his initial visit to city planning, characterized his plan simply as a treehouse -- so maybe the (former) city official can be forgiven if that conjured an image of a few boards hammered to a tree, not the $20,000 Swiss Family Robinson-style double-decker structure that ultimately arose.
Indeed, according to the Anna Maria Island Sun, the inspector told the newspaper in 2012 "that he thought Hazen was proposing building a simple deck in the tree, and said he wished he had asked to see a rendering of what turned into a three-level project with glass walls, a roof and a staircase."
On the other hand, the homeowners might reasonably have thought that a treehouse is a treehouse is a treehouse, and that they had permission to build a treehouse. They don't have children, so it's possible that it never occurred to them that the inspector might have been imagining a much humbler structure.
I'm not sure there's necessarily a bad guy in this story. Maybe not even a lesson, really.
Except that you should always, always get it in writing.
But what do you think? Let us know in the comments.
