This video consists of the latter two races of the Chao Cup, as well as the awards ceremony that every kart racer needs to have. I chose Sonic for this set of Grand Prix races because he's the most fitting character to start showing these videos with. He is NOT the easiest character to learn, however, as he veers more as a high-speed, bad-handling character. He's been this way in every Sonic racing game that's ever been made, an interesting (but logical) subversion of the main character being the most balanced. Now, many of you have been asking: Why is Sonic in a car? Why is he not running on foot? Well, I have an explanation for that: There are rules for the race that Sonic has to follow, and I'll bet one of them is that every racer needs a vehicle to race in. He'd be disqualified if he were on foot. it would be as if someone brought a car to a bicycle race. Besides, Sonic's used to being in a car. He's quite comfortable with it. He's done so in Sonic Drift, Sonic Drift 2, and Sonic R. The Sonic Riders games are the only ones where he isn't in a car. (NOTE: Many viewers have informed me that Sonic is on foot in Sonic R. They are correct. I somehow thought everybody was in a car.) Race #3 Casino Park Roulette Road Song: BINGO Highway This is a pretty long course, and one where gravity doesn't always point downwards, allowing the designers to put in some interesting landscapes along the way. Casino Park comes from Sonic Heroes, just like Seaside Hill, and it's a pretty ...

Hotel sám o sobě je snadno přehlédnutelný, chybí nějaký poutač nebo něco, jak by na sebe upozornil. Hotelový pokoj byl postačující na přespání, bohužel se, dle jejich tvrzení, daný den nedalo za ubytování a snídani platit kartou, musela jsem tedy platit cash.

The Eixample suburb was created 1860–1920 and consequently holds the city's finest Modernist buildings. The Passeig de Gràcia is the main artery, its wide pavements lined with designer shops and chic cafes. It is also home to Gaudí's two fairy-tale masterpieces, Casa Batlló and La Pedrera, plus many other architectural gems. The undoubted star of the Eixample is La Sagrada Familia, Gaudí's fabulous unfinished emblematic church.

"Under Construction"
Hotel itself is nice, clean, great roof top patio. But we found out at 6 am there was construction going on. We were woke up by drilling & jack hammering on the walls, you could feel the vibration. Hotel staff never notified us of this and when we asked about it they pretended to not really know what we were talking about it. Saying it was coming from […] another building which couldn't be possible if we could feel the vibration. I feel the hotel should be responsible for notifying guest upon booking of any renovations or construction so we can make other accomodations. It ruined our experience at Hotel Claris. :( Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com

"Good stay and value but check the details"
Hotel was very good. Service was very good. Didn't check our Hotels.com receipt until the checkout and it turns out the hotel gave us a light-well facing room instead of a city view room during our four day stay. Also the sauna had a stainless steel water bucket inside the sauna at 120 degrees plus temperature. I burned my hand severely handling the […] pail.

Perfect location right in the centre of Barcelona and most attractions were within walking distance.. Buses, trains & taxis were easily available withing 250m of the hotel. The hotel was of a very high standard although we didn't eat in the hotel as breakfast was very expensive at €23. The room was comfortable but a kettle or means of making a hot drink […] in the room would have been welcome. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia

The hotel was very good in all aspects. It doesn't have the magesty of other 5 star hotels but the service and quality is there. The location cannot be better, and in a safe and nice elegant area. One block away from Paseo de Gracia, two away from from Ramblas Catalans, and two from Diagonal. It is perfectly located to go anywhere in Barcelona. Two […] of Gaudi's masterpiece houses are walking distance (5 and 10 minutes away).

"My first experience, visit to barcelona spain,"
Last week, we spent 3 nights me and my friend at the claris hotel, in a duplex twin room which was almost like a suite which was lovely, , and I found it to be just like it appears on the website, very modern, classic and the upkeeping of the hotel is excellent, clean and tidy. The staff were very helpful with any help that I required, e.g. such as […] translation of spanish when using the computer, room service, and advising me the best places to shop or even visit on our day out. The cleaners were great, and did a good job cleaning our rooms, but the only thing was we wasn't sure at what time they were to come and clean, so we had to ring the reception, or we would see them outside our front room door, cleaning another room, so we would ask then. The only thing i would say, was that quite early in the morning, there were noises of footsteps coming from the next room, but it didn't go on for too long. Having access to the sauna facilities was really enjoyable and quiet. The breakfast was enjoyable, I enjoyed the quietness of the hotel, overall it wasn't noisy, the restaurant was lovely, and well decorated. I had a good experience, and found it very interesting, i had the opportunity to walk to many places, and the shopping, markets and malls, were within reasonable walking distance, as well as hopping onto a tourist bus which was convenient to take us out further to have a better sight seeing expereince. I would visit barcelona again,go back to the claris hote too. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia
"Perfect for pre-cruise stay!"
Perfect for staying in the heart of Barcelona for a few nights. We stayed prior to departing for a cruise for one night. Hotel staff was very accomodating. Room was clean and met our expectations (we typically stay in 4.5 - 5 star hotels). The window shade is a little thin and light comes in fairly easily, but that is just a nit. Tip - highly recommend […] taking the train to the hotel from the airport. I think the cost was six or seven euros and is the most cost effective mode of transportation. The train drops you off one block from the hotel. If you take a cab, you are wasting your money. The hotel is very convenient to La Sagrada and shopping. Highly recommend staying here.

"Construction noise and indifferent staff."
Paid extra for a 'duplex' room with extra space. Disappointing. Window looked directly in to a brick wall. I asked for a different room and was told nothing better was available...then the construction noise started. I again asked for a new room and was told that noise would stop soon. It stopped 1.5 days later. By then I was tired of asking for new […] room and just gave up. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia
"Not a good deal sorry"
they offer free internet on the website and its not free only give you 12 hours per stay. Staff very rude. Staff with much attitude told me that they gave me a superior room for more space ( like if they are giving me an upgrade) I booked a superior room, so they are not giving anything extra, I know what I booked...... and Iam not asking then anything, […] just my room. Room not clean ..... nice lobby nice terrace and elevator not working sorry.... Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia

Excellent hotel. We got a room upgrade so was even better than we expected. Very good location to either stroll or get the metro to the main tourist spots. Very quiet. Lovely roof top terrace.

"Great location, great people."
The staff is great, especially Kathy at reception and Adrian at the pool (restaurant). British Airways lost my luggage and she was most helpful. The hotel is perfectly located. The only downside is that they advertised having a gym which really doesn't meet minimum standards: it only has three sets of weights and two antiquated machines in a tiny rooftop […] room to the back. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia
The hotel had friendly staff with good english with good facilities. This is my first time in this hotel but not in Barcelona. Great for families as there is a small clean pool on the roof terrace perfect for time fillers and a lift for buggies. The terrace has a bar and restaurant also. Its location is great as it is near the shops - good ones too […] - and there are plenty of reasonably priced cafes and supermarkets nearby. It is a good 20 minutes walk to the beach. Food and drinks are pricey in the hotel but then that's no different to any other hotel. There was a bit of street noise at night but not disruptive. The cleaners were not intrusive or noisy either. I would stay there again. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia

"Lovely Hotel"
The Hotel Claris is centrally located, within walking distance to several sites and public transportation. The hotel and rooms are very clean and pretty. Our room, on an upper floor, was very quiet. The beds were very comfortable. One negative is that the bathtub was not easy for an older guest to get in and out of, and there was a step in our room, […] Otherwise, the room was very nice. The staff at the hotel were very nice and very helpful. Whatever restaurants they recommended were excellent. They also gave us good advice regarding our questions about site seeing. There is a lovely rooftop restaurant and bar. The website did say free wifi, but I was told it was free only for a short time. They did have computers in a room off the lobby available for guests. A friend recommended the Hotel Claris to us, and I would also recommend it. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia
"No thrilled"
for a "5" star hotel, ammenities were average at best.

"We Like to Walk"
Modern hotel in upscale neighborhood. Close to Ramblas and Casa Mila. We had them valet our car, which was great. The room was very quiet because of an extra set of pocket doors. Although the room was small it was very impressive. It was a shame precious desk space was used for a large artifact display case. Perhaps that could have been on a shelf higher […] up. In all a very enjoyable stay. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com
"Great Hotel. good location, great city"
We stayed in this hotel as a couple for 3 nights as part of a city break. The location was very central with just a 2 minute walk to the main shopping area and 5 minute walk to the metro. On arrival at the hotel we were upgraded to a more superior room which was excellent, very modern and even had a 2000 year old museum exhibit in a display cabinet […] in our room. Only criticism is that although there was a large flat screen television there was no movie service. The staff were very proffesional and helpful at all times. I would highly recommend this hotel and if there is one city in Europe you should visit, it must be Barcelona. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka společnosti Expedia
"Hotel Claris welcoming and a great place to stay"
The hotel was great. Without exception the staff were welcoming and incredibly helpful, going out of their way to assist in any way possible. It was very clear that all staff cared about their guests' experience which was refreshing and made our stay in the city so much more enjoyable. The hotel itself was a great place to stay, from the accommodation […] to the food and levels of service care. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We asked for help and advice on several occasions from several different staff on reception, on the door, in the restaurant and around the hotel in general, sometimes about the hotel and sometimes related to activities in Barcelona. On each occasion staff were keen to help, making phone calls and advising and taking a genuine interest. It is rare not to have at least some comments about possible improvements following a hotel stay, but this was one of those rare occasions. If we visit Barcelona again, we will certainly look to book the same hotel, despite the city appearing to have a number of very nice hotels.

After about 15 years of practicing at white-collar defense firm Morvillo, Abramowitz, Grand, Iason, Anello & Bohrer, former named partner Barry Bohrer begins his practice today at Schulte Roth & Zabel.
Bohrer and Morvillo partner Lisa Prager join as partners in the firm's litigation practice, while another Morvillo attorney, Lara Covington, will serve as special counsel.
"We are delighted at the prospect of joining a firm of such depth, breadth and resources," Bohrer said in a statement. "We look forward to joining old friends, with new platforms for our practices and new challenges to meet on behalf of clients."
In the Morvillo firm's own statement, partner Richard Weinberg said, "Both Barry and Lisa remain good friends of our firm with close ties to many. We look forward to working alongside them in the future."
Bohrer's departure comes after the December 2011 death of firm cofounder, Robert Morvillo, a leader of the white-collar criminal defense bar. Last May, three sons of Morvillo, Gregory, Scott and Robert left their positions as counsel at the firm to start a boutique law office, Morvillo LLP, to focus on white-collar criminal defense and SEC regulatory actions. They were joined by their uncle, Richard Morvillo, who was a partner at Schulte.
Bohrer, a former assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District who joined Morvillo in 1987, focuses on white collar, complex civil and securities enforcement matters. He has represented Steven Davis, the ousted chairman of now-defunct firm Dewey & LeBoeuf.
Prager, who will work in the Washington and New York offices, practices in the areas of government investigations and enforcement actions. Covington, who focuses on FCPA, export controls and government contract issues, will be based in Washington.

As we all love Sushi but don't always have time to prepare it by ourselves, we went on a quest for the best Sushi restaurant here in Lund. And we found it – Ra Epok (Swedish for "Raw Epoch").
This cute and unique restaurant follows its philosophy to use only local Swedish fish such as trout, walleye or cod, meaning that they do not use any fish on "IUCN Red List of Threatened Species". The Sushi is prepared next to the customers and a delicious soup is offered while waiting for the fresh Sushi. The prices are very reasonable and therefore this restaurant is quite busy during lunch- and dinnertime. Try it - you will be impressed!

Men probably wear solid or melange-colored trousers with odd jackets 99% of the time, and in doing so overlook the opportunity to mix things up a bit in a classic British way. By that I mean tweed trousers, like the ones in the photo from Rudolf Beaufays, a second-hand and vintage clothing establishment in Hamburg, Germany that I can't recommend too highly (the man has timeless taste).
As the photo shows, it's hardly necessary to only pair patterned trousers with navy blazers or gray cardigan sweaters, the safe choices that come first to mind. So long as the patterns are of a different scale, any combination of jacket and trousers that won't scare off the birds is perfectly appropriate for attendance at a casual outing like an American football game.
Next time you're looking to wear something a little different this fall, try checked trousers.

Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA)
The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, authorizes the President to provide benefit assistance to individuals unemployed as a direct result of a major disaster. The U.S. Department of Labor oversees DUA and coordinates with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which provides the funds to the state UI agencies for payment of DUA benefits and state administration under agreements with the Secretary of Labor.
Disaster Unemployment Assistance provides financial assistance to individuals whose employment or self-employment has been lost or interrupted as a direct result of a major disaster and who are not eligible for regular unemployment insurance benefits.
When a major disaster has been declared by the President, DUA is generally available to any unemployed worker or self-employed individual who lived, worked, or was scheduled to work in the disaster area at the time of the disaster; and due to the disaster:
- no longer has a job or a place to work; or
- cannot reach the place of work; or
- cannot work due to damage to the place of work; or
- cannot work because of an injury caused by the disaster.
An individual who becomes the head of household and is seeking work because the former head of household died as a result of the disaster may also qualify for DUA benefits.
DUA benefits are payable to individuals only for weeks of unemployment in the Disaster Assistance Period, which begins with the first day of the week following the date the major disaster began and for up to 26 weeks after the date the disaster was declared by the President, as long as the individual's unemployment continue to be a result of the major disaster.
The maximum weekly benefit amount is determined under the provisions of the state law for unemployment compensation in the state where the disaster occurred. However, the minimum weekly amount is half (50%) of the average benefit amount in the state.
Filing a Claim
In the event of a disaster, the affected state will publish announcements about the availability of Disaster Unemployment Assistance. To file a claim, individuals should contact the State Unemployment Insurance agency.
Individuals who have moved or have been evacuated to another state should contact the affected state for claim filing instructions. Individuals can also contact the State Unemployment Insurance agency in the state where they are currently residing for claim filing assistance.

This recipe goes together in a flash when you use dried herbs and 1 tablespoon purchased minced garlic instead of the fresh.
Chopping fresh herbs is a lot easier when you place them in a small bowl and use a scissors to "snip" them into small pieces.

Information for schools using SIMS / CMIS / Progresso database
Each of the fCAF forms is designed to link with your school database which will allow users to create an fCAF document that pre-populates data fields with information already held on the school system; eg: Name, Address, DoB, sibling, attendance, attainment, achievement and benefit data. Please download the 'How to Guide' below to learn how to enable this functionality.- How to Guide for prepopulation (Automatic Population Rules)
Clarification for each of the CAF forms, which fields will be populated using data imported from the MIS and the rules that will be used. Download the document from eBriefing.
- Additional file required for SIMS users
Schools using the SIMS management system will require an additional file that can be down loaded from the following site: http://link2ict.bham.org.uk/home/mis/CAFExtract.RptDef

I like to pick things out of trash cans and reuse castaway items. Here, I repurpose the trash can itself to facilitate recycling organic waste into beneficial compost.
Commercial composting canisters can be costly, but they're simply a place to allow natural microbial processes to convert waste matter into a dark, fresh-smelling soil. Commercial versions allow air and some water to get in, and sometimes a way to mix.
Most home trash cans fail when part of the bottom wears away, leaving a hole. Such a trash can is perfect for this project, since we're just going to add more holes anyway.
Step #1: Clean the trash can.
Next- Scrub the trash can thoroughly inside and out to ensure that no inorganic waste remains. If you're squeamish about this, buy a new one.
- It's helpful but not necessary to have a lid. If the original lid has gone missing, I'll leave it to you to come up with another solution.
This project first appeared in MAKE Volume 31, page 155.

We're Making Some Changes To Cranford Patch
The Cranford Patch you rely on for local news and information will remain the same, but we're welcoming a new editor.
About a year-and-a-half ago, I had the privilege of joining Cranford Patch as the local editor. I have loved every minute of it, and have grown quite attached to the community and it's residents. But life is a journey, and as such, we have to keep moving forward. So, beginning today, I will hand over the reigns to a new local editor as I embrace my new role as the associate regional editor for all Union County Patch sites.
For the past few months, I have served as both the local editor and the regional editor simultaneously, but beginning this week, I will fully transition into my position as associate regional editor and turn the majority of local coverage over to Camilo Smith, who has spent the last year as the editor of Summit Patch.
The past 17 months have been anything but dull. A few weeks after I joined Cranford Patch, Hurricane Irene devastated the town and almost immediately, I discovered the importance of my job, as I worked around the clock to keep residents informed during the storm, and in its wake. In the months that followed, I met families who were affected by the flood. I watched as the town and its local officials worked to rebuild their homes, schools, businesses and lives. The community spirit was overwhelming and I am truly grateful to the businesses and residents who welcomed me into their houses and stores as they struggled to restore their property — even as a freak October snowstorm added insult to injury.
Then a few weeks ago, Super Storm Sandy struck, and once again the town come together in the wake of Mother Nature's fury. Sandwiched in between the natural disasters, there have been countless meetings, sporting events, school plays, street fairs, the fight against Birchwood Avenue development, local controversy, breaking news and too many feel-good feature stories to name. The more time I spent in Cranford, the more I felt like part of the community.
Having covered Union County for about 15 years of my journalism career, I'm excited to have the opportunity to work with other Patch sites in the county. But that doesn't mean I'll be leaving Cranford altogether. I still have a few features and investigative stories that I plan to publish in the coming weeks, and community members will still be able to find me and my colleagues "Patching" at places like Rockn' Joe, the Cranford Library and the Community Center. You can continue to send me feedback and questions at firstname.lastname@example.com or 908-380-1403.
Cranford Patch will continue its commitment to "making life ridiculously easy for you and your neighbors." As a journalist with several years of experience, Camilo will carry on our mission of keeping residents informed with constant updates on our site as well as via Facebook and Twitter. You can reach him at email@example.com or 908-812-6281.

This is a win-win for Cranford: Congratulations, Camilo, on the new gig! And, Toni, try not to work too hard being all things to all people!

12:52 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
I'll try, Mary...but I've grown very attached to Cranford, so I have a feeling I won't be able to distance myself TOO much, lol!
12:32 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
Good Luck in your new venture! Thanks for all the hard work you did for Cranford.
Toniann Antonelli
12:54 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
Thanks LuAnn!I really appreciate your kind words! As the the associate regional editor, I'll be overseeing all of our Union County sites, so I'll continue to work hard to make sure that Patch continues to give Cranford the best coverage possible :)
2:33 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
Congrats Toni! Couldn't think of anyone better then you to keep Union County informed! You rock!!!
Toniann Antonelli
6:26 pm on Monday, November 26, 2012
Thanks Joe and Terri! Nice to get feedback from people who were around at the start of my career :)

Nope - I was promoted a few months ago, but I was still serving as the full-time Cranford editor at the same time.
5:21 am on Wednesday, November 28, 2012
"Full time" Cranford editor is a generous self description. Hopefully you will pay more attention to newsworthy local items rather than reporting on Def Leppard and regurgitating police blotters in your new role.

MLB and DUI's Still Together After All These Years
With the news of Todd Helton's DUI arrest, which adds his name to the long list of MLB players who have been caught drunk driving in recent years, I thought it would be appropriate to post a piece I wrote nearly two years ago on the subject. (It first ran in May 2011.)
Here's Helton's mug shot. How charming.
In my opinion and in the opinion of many others, MLB still has a long way to go in how they deal with their players being arrested for operating vehicles while under the influence. It seems a little backward that there's more outrage when someone is caught using PEDs than when someone is exhibiting behavior that can kill other people.
While some people are pointing to the low attendance numbers so far this season as a problem for Major League Baseball, others–like me–think that the rash of drunk driving arrests is an even bigger issue.
This spring alone, six Major Leaguers have been picked up for DUIs: Adam Kennedy (Seattle Mariners); Coco Crisp (Oakland Athletics); Derek Lowe (Atlanta Braves); Cleveland's Shin-Soo Choo and Austin Kearns; and Miguel Cabrera (Detroit Tigers).
My question is, how is this even possible?
These players aren't rookies. The guys listed above are veteran players who have been around the league. Surely they've made enough money to–oh I don't know–hire a driver to pick them up when they've become too intoxicated to drive home?
What's worse? This wasn't even Miguel Cabrera's first offense.
From an article from Business Insider on his most recent DUI arrest:
The reports indicate that Cabrera forced at least two cars off the road due to his reckless driving. The Range Rover he was piloting caused a Wal-Mart tractor trailer to go off of a main road, and another car to swerve on the grass to avoid a head on collision with the inebriated Major Leaguer.
When will these players get it through their thick skulls that drinking and driving is dangerous? When someone gets killed? Oh, right, that's already happened.
Two years ago, Major League Baseball was dealt a major blow when Angels rookie pitcher Nick Adenhart and two friends were killed in a horrific accident caused by a drunk driver. The accident cut short a promising baseball career, ended two other young lives and sent shockwaves throughout Major League Baseball.
Apparently those shockwaves have become barely visible ripples because how else can you explain the rash of recent drunk driving incidents?
Now, Major League Baseball–finally–wants to do something about it.
As it stands, the current collective bargaining agreement, which expires later this year, has provisions for drugs like cocaine and marijuana but there is no way of disciplining players for alcohol related offenses. In the past, only confidential counseling and treatment were offered on a case-by-case basis.
The new plan, according to two anonymous baseball officials, is to make the punishment for alcohol-related offenses mirror the punishments handed down for drugs like marijuana: mandatory counseling and possible suspension if the player refuses to cooperate.
I say it's about time.
Derek Lowe, who was picked up for his DUI on April 28, took a no hitter into the seventh inning of last night's game against the Phillies. I, along with a few other people, voiced our unhappiness at the possibility of his pitching a no hitter when he probably should have been suspended for his arrest.
Luckily, Shane Victorino got a base hit and Lowe just picked up a win instead of adding his name to baseball's history books. I'm all for redemption story lines but he hadn't even been punished for his transgression.
Good job by MLB for finally doing something–or at least talking about doing something–but also shame on them for it taking so long.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) - A schedule conflict has delayed the trial of an Ohio man charged with shooting his wife of 45 years in a hospital intensive care unit in what may have been a mercy killing. The prosecutor's office says the judge is involved in another trial, so today's start of the aggravated murder trial of John Wise in Akron was postponed until August. He has pleaded not guilty.
FREMONT, Ohio (AP) - Whirlpool is beginning soil and water testing at a former park in a northern Ohio area where cancer has sickened dozens of children for more than a decade. The Michigan-based appliance manufacturer has a washing machine factory in the nearby town of Clyde and once owned the park.
LOGAN, Ohio (AP) - Authorities say a 52-year-old man died when he fell from a cliff while rappelling in southeastern Ohio over the weekend. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources said the man died in the fall Saturday in Hocking Hills State Forest near Logan. Agency spokesman Mark Bruce said the man - who is from Centerville, in the Dayton area - fell from the top of a 130-foot cliff.
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A Democratic state lawmaker is announcing plans to challenge Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel (man-DEHL') in 2014. Third-term state Rep. Connie Pillich, of suburban Cincinnati, says she'll focus her campaign on fighting for working families, fellow small business owners and senior citizens. Pillich has been a lawyer, businesswoman and captain in the U.S. Air Force.

inner block converted to inline
Test passes if characters are in the same order.
Assertion: When direction:rtl and unicode-bidi:bidi-override is set on a block element containing block and inline elements, and CSS is used to change the block element to an inline element, the direction of all the text will be overridden.
The CSS2 specification says that the direction will not be overridden at all throughout the top level container, whereas the CSS2.1 specification says that inline text direction will be overridden, but not that of the contained block element. In both cases, the CSS specifications say that the effect corresponds to adding a LRO (U+202D; for 'direction: ltr') or RLO (U+202E; for 'direction: rtl') at the start of the element and a PDF (U+202C) at the end of the element.
= means you should check that the test and reference graphic look the same, except for font differences and cursive joining behavior.

Esperanto: Our only Hope for Universal Communication?
"They are one people and have one language, and nothing will be withholden from them which they purpose to do."
--Genesis 11:5
I used to consider frequently is the lack of universal verbal compatibility among people on this planet. I find it astonishing that, in an age of jet-engines and high-speed internet, most of us are still completely incapable of communicating with the people even one continent over.
What would you do if you were dropped in Shanghai, and had to take a dump? Are you gonna try to act that out for someone on the street?
This is a problem, people.
I read the Ender's Shadow science fiction series in high school, and was impressed by the concept that author, Orson Scott Card presents about a language called Common. In the futuristic planet that Card describes, Common is a universal second language that all humans learn in school. In the same way that many Americans study Spanish, and Canadians study French growing up, all children on Card's futuristic Earth learn Common. By the time they are adults, all humans on the planet are capable of conversing with each other in Common, in addition to learning their native language at home.
I had a Spanish teacher in high school, Senor Cafe', who was a pretty culturally uninhibited thinker. One day I posed him the following question:
"why don't we come up with a new, grammatically straight-forward, universal language, and use it replace English as the official international language?"
"Funny you should ask," Senor Cafe' replied. "They've tried."
The Greatest Language You've Never Heard
In 1887, L.L. Zamenhof published Unua Libro, a book encapsulating the grammar of his ground-breaking new Language, Esperanto. More than 100 years before Orson Scott Card, Zamenhof engineered Esperanto (meaning "hope") as an International Auxiliary Language to unite all peoples to better understanding through communication. Esperanto is easy to learn. There are no exceptions to the rules of its grammar or spelling. Some linguists estimate that acquisition of Esperanto is up to four times faster than other languages (Esperanto-USA). In the 124 years following its creation, Esperantists, as they are called, have experienced their share of ups and downs. Here are a few of the highlights I found on Wikipedia:
- 1924, the American Radio Relay League adopts Esperanto as its official international auxiliary language
- 1926, Adolph Hitler mentions Esperanto in his manifesto, Mien Kampf, as an example of a language that would be used by an International Jewish Conspiracy once they achieved world domination.
- Deplorably, Zamenhof's family was singled out along with many Esperantists for murder during the Holocaust
- 1954, the UN Educational, Scientific, and Cultural organization recognizes Esperanto as an official "medium for international understanding." (whatever that means, lol)
- 1965, William Shatner learns Esperanto at McGill University, and speaks it in his leading role for the 1965 B-list horror film, Incubus.
"Esperanto, eh?"
Today, the official estimate is that somewhere between 10,000 and 2,000,000 people speak Esperanto fluently (Wikipedia). Unfortunately it is almost never taught in school, so it's unlikely that it will replace English as the international language any time soon.
Why Not Esperanto?
Personally, I think the idea of Esperanto makes a hell of a lot of sense, and I would welcome it being taught in schools around the world. The fact that such an obviously superior idea has never caught on serves as a terrific testament to just how scared of change societies across our world are. Critics, however, have a few decent arguments against it.
The main one is that the vocabulary, pronunciation, and verb conjugations are based predominantly on the Romantic and Germanic languages. In other words, it gives more weight to European culture than Asian, African, Middle-Eastern, and Native American. Not ideal for bringing about cultural appreciation and equality. It is, however, better than our current practice of simply expecting everyone to learn English.
Since Esperanto was created, there have been several other International Auxiliary Languages created in an attempt to correct the criticisms of Esperanto. The most popular two are:
• Ido (a reformed version of Esperanto)
• Occidental (derived from the Latin word for "west," this language attempted to create vocabulary that was even more easily recognizable to those who already spoke Romance Languages)
Another important question is, how could we actualize the adoption of an international language in a way that is not completely forced and arbitrary? If we were to attempt to choose an international language, which would we choose? Is it possible that they are all inadequate, and we should design yet another? Who would vote on this issue? And, most importantly, how often would we go about replacing our international language? No doubt, people will continue to develop more, better languages every decade. Then what? Would everyone on the planet have to learn a new language every ten years?
I was struggling to answer these questions for a while, until I realized something obvious: it may not be a choice we have to make at all. Is it possible that we could all communicate without the mandatory imposition of any artificial language...
Learning from History
Lets consider the English language. Where did it come from? Has it been spoken the same as it is today since the dawn of time in England? Not quite…
Old English is actually a hybrid of Latin, Greek, and Old Norse. Spanish came from Latin, Celtiberian, and Basque.
Effectively, no prominent language in current usage evolved in isolation. Every one is a hybrid of several older languages. As the world has become more globalized, peoples have traveled to new parts of the world, bringing with them their language and culture. This process has lead to an organic, progressive integration of languages since prehistoric times.
What's more, language has always been evolving and changing to become easier to speak and write. Case and point? We don't speak Old English anymore. Modern English is much more efficient for communication.
Enter: Accademia della Crusca
In 1612, the Italian Academy published their monumental work, Vocabolario, attempting to winnow out the impurities of Italian language (Wikipedia). This organization became the authority on Florentine Italian.
Essentially, what they were saying was this:
"Stop! THIS BOOK is Italian. Don't try to change it anymore."
Since then, all other "modern" cultures have followed suit, creating dictionaries to define:
• which words are "official words" of that language,
• what, precisely, those words mean mean,
• and how exactly they are supposed to be spelled
…No matter how counter-intuitive any of that may be.
It occurred to me this past week that our subscription to these "Academics" (root word=academy), may just be the most limiting thing we have ever done for our ability to integrate across cultural lines. In such a globalized world as we have today. It's not hard to imagine that, over time, English could re-integrate with the other Romance Languages, and, eventually, the Oriental ones as well. After all, Latin and Norse were equally incompatible at one point.
Imagine what would happen if we let go of our notions of how "English" or "Mandarin" was supposed to go, and let them organically integrate into a new language! We have examples of English doing this with tribal tongues in countries of Africa and the Caribbean.
We could let go of the notion that "bought" needed to have a silent "g-h" in it. That convention no longer makes sense, yet we continue to use it, at the expense of more efficient communication.
We live, today, in a world filled with hate and misunderstanding. There are Arabs that hate Americans; Americans that hate the Chinese; Chinese that hate the Japanese.... is it any coincidence that the vast majority of individuals from these countries are completely incapable of communicating with each other?
The biggest obstacle to allowing languages to integrate is the widespread belief that our culture would somehow "lose" something if we allowed our language to change. I challenge this belief. I say, the beauty of culture does not lie in the irrational attachment to rigid conventions. It lies in the creative reflection of the way our world is evolving and integrating every day.
Imagine if our language could reflect that.
If my thoughts have resonated with some of you, I offer one final reminder. The "Academies," who advocated for this lingual rigidity need not be vilified as evil Illuminati. It is the choice of the collective whether or not we support such structures. Without our support, dictionaries are nothing but ornate bundles of paper. The root is the rigidity that we have created through buying into them. Ultimately, this stems from our fear of change. Through this article I have merely offered information, but close by asserting one thing:
Change is beautiful.

Plano-based ESI to send emergency shipments to Bangladesh
By Neel Trivedi, Staff Writer
Following the cyclone that hit the southern coast of Bangladesh in November, more than 3,000 people were killed and thousands were left homeless, needing immediate emergency relief. Several organizations stepped up to help. MediSend International is one of them.
MediSend International, a humanitarian organization based in Dallas, will send out a shipment of two 40-foot ocean-going containers of emergency relief today to Bangladesh. The containers carried medical supplies and equipment such as stretchers, gurneys, and IV poles.
Nick Hallack, president and CEO of MediSend International, said, "You can call this a life-saving mission. The shipment will make an immeasurable difference."
The shipment is funded by Plano-based Estech System Inc. (ESI), a manufacturer and distributor of communications system.
Eric Suder, founder and CEO of ESI, said in a statement that everyone talks about emergencies when they happen but no one thinks about the aftermath.
"The misery and devastation goes on long after those affected," he said. "We strive for what's been called success with significance, by being socially responsible."
Hallack said, "Basically Eric asked me, �Which countries don't have oil or natural resources? If it's not a premier country, I'll help them.' They're [ESI] a wonderful sponsor."
ESI collaborated with MediSend International for the first time in 2005 to send medical supplies to Tsunami victims in Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
"They [ESI] immediately came to the emergency," Hallack said. "And when the cyclone hit Bangladesh, they said they'll help out, but this time they'd like to help out in the long term."
Today's shipment is the first of two shipments to be sent to Bangladesh, Hallack said. "There's a commitment for a second round in February 2008," he said.
Residents who wish to contribute can help out by mailing tax-deductible contributions to ESI Disaster Relief Fund, P.O Box 940963, Plano, Tx 75094-0963.
