Political Risk Analysis
From CareersWiki
Sector Overview
Political risk analysts examine the political climate and social conditions of a particular country, region, or market to determine the level of political risk. They provide information pertaining to government stability, crime levels, currency convertability, land rights issues, as well as other factors that would affect return on investment. Typically, analysts gather information pertaining to the area of interest, determine the causes, sources, and level of risk, and forward their findings to decision-makers. They also may provide solutions or offer recommendations for overcoming these risks.
Work in political risk management is varied. If you pursue this field, you may find yourself working for international organisations, financial companies, rating services, oil companies, consumer businesses or companies that sell political risk information. You can also work in the political risk divisions of large consulting and insurance companies or within Credit, Fixed Income, or Equities at a large bank.
Networks - why and how to use them
Networking is particularly important and can help you succeed with your applications. If you have been in contact with someone working for the organisation then you have extra information to back up your case for why they should employ you. Use social media sites such as LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook (many organisations have their own page) to connect with organisations. Alumni can make extremely useful contacts, giving you an "edge" with your applications and interviews. There are several ways to make contact with alumni.
- Saint Connect - The Careers Alumni Network for St Andrews where you can make contact with alumni, get industry news, participate in discussions, and search jobs. Find out how to use Saint Connect by viewing the 'Video Tour' (bottom right-hand side of Saint Connect screen).
- LinkedIn – Alumni Tool - this feature shows the career paths of 30,000+ St Andrews Alumni. By using the search field, you can find alumni working in a particular organisation eg Political and Security Risk Analyst at Riskline, Political Risk Analyst Intern at Frontier Horizons, Risk Manager at Save the Children International and Country Risk Analyst at BMI Research. Watch the YouTube video on how to use this resource.
- Graduate recruiters - ask if they can put you in touch with any alumni now working for their company.
- Friends and family - ask around your immediate social network for any contacts in the organisations which interest you.
- This networking video produced by Cass Business School gives excellent tips on effective networking.
How to gain experience/internships
If you're interested in this field, it's helpful to develop accounting and financial skills as well as an understanding of the political process. Internships are strongly recommended for a career in political risk analysis, especially if you're looking to work at a financial institution.
Try to arrange work shadowing and longer placements or internships as this can help you to decide on your career choice and is a real advantage when applying for jobs. You can also adopt a speculative approach - see our web pages on networking and speculative applications for more advice. See our list of sample employers below for organisations that might have internships.
Many individuals interested in political risk analysis see the need to focus on a particular angle that will create a pathway to their career. If you're interested in a Banking context, take courses in Economics. If you would like to specialise in a particular region, work hard to become an expert on its politics, culture, and economy. If you know that your languages are rusty then think about experience that will help you brush up. You will probably need to be proactive and make speculative applications to organisations that you are interested in and networking in order to get your foot in the door. An up-to-date profile on Linked In would probably be helpful for this reason also.
How to get a (graduate) job
Obtaining a job in political risk analysis is by no means a straightforward undertaking. Whatever you choose, you will likely need to create the building blocks of your career through a careful mix of postgraduate training, experience, skills and networking.
Successful analysts are people who can apply their knowledge to understand new and complex situations. They hail from all sorts of backgrounds. Analysts usually have degrees in business or international relations or have worked in intelligence, law, journalism or law enforcement. Furthermore, banking experience is useful to those seeking employment at a financial institution. All applicants must have strong research and analytical skills. They need to be good decision-makers and able to communicate well. Potential employers are looking for 'intelligent risk takers' who are well-informed and keep abreast of current events. They also want individuals who can write concise and coherent reports.
Language skills are an asset but not a requirement in the field. Some positions may expect you to know a particular region inside and out so you are able to decipher a balance sheet, understand a country's economic workings or provide insight into its politics. However, other positions will focus on several areas of the world and therefore do not expect you to be a specialist.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
By John Jarobe, Bearded Ladies Cabaret
"Fueled by a Knight Arts grant, The Bearded Ladies are delivering on their promised cabaret revolution."- Mark Cofta, City Paper "[The Bearded Ladies Cabaret] are at the forefront of what is becoming a thriving cabaret scene in Philly." Lewis Whittington, Edge Philadelphia
The Bearded Ladies closed out 2012 with a bang. Marlene and the Machine: A German Expressionist Cabaret, the first in our three show season brought discovery, insight, renewed methodology and an overwhelmingly positive response from critics and audiences across Philadelphia.
"[A] cabaret that probes the boundaries between the chaos of uncontrolled emotion and the veneer of manufactured control," (Jim Rutter,Philadelphia Inquirer). We created a half-robot half-aged star version of Marlene Dietrich who challenged audiences to gain control over their emotions as part of her patented Affect Management Seminar. Attendees rose above the role of viewer as Marlene and her team of Beaut-techs prodded them with emotional music, and taught them mantras like "with my machine I am in control."
The support from our Knight Art grant invigorated our artistic process allowing for 7 dedicated weeks where our company of performers and collaborators were able to fully immerse themselves in the creative process. Research, experimentation and development were supported in a whole new way and the growth and final results of the process are truly immeasurable.
We are thrilled to be returning to the studio on our next major Knight Art funded project: Wide Awake: A Civil War Cabaret at the Kimmel Center!

This inverter was similar to the other 750 watt unit but this one is stocked at my local HF. I attached it to my car battery, and connected a few items to see how it would perform. Lights, a fan, battery charger for my drill, and a power hand drill all seemed to work OK, although the fan seemed to run slower. The output measured 95 V with my HF tester, but not as accurate as a more expensive tester (true RMS?) I am told. I think for light use during power outages, this should do fine. For heavier use like a refrigerator, go for the bigger inverters. A modified sine wave inverter like this may cause buzzing in tv's and may not work well with many electronics. Keep this in mind as you shop.

Customer service is great! Page 7 wrong.I purchased Power Inverter #69660 Dec. 2014 and found a problem in the manual on page #3 which is inconsistent to the same instructions on page #7. Please advise of which is the correct to follow. """Page 3 Installation Precautions #13 states that the positive (+) battery on the inverter must be the last connection made""" """Page 7 Operating Instructions #4 says Attach the red cables alligator clip to the positive (red) terminal on the battery, then attach the black cable ....""" Also on the same page #7 tells to disconnect in reverse order as stated in #4 ""Black first then Red"" I would like to use this inverter as soon as possible but do not want to damage the unit, so will wait for your reply. Dear Customer, Thank you for your recent inquiry. The negative is connected first, then the positive cable is connected. When disconnecting, you will want to disconnect the red first, then the black.

Bought this to power a laptop computer and amplifier for use in a parade. It worked awesome with power to spare even when we had to crank up the amp to be able to hear our caller over other music systems in the parade. Nice compact design.
Very Pleased
By Curt
from Roanoke, VA
I bought this inverter to replace an old one on my 32 foot boat. I am using it to power a 22" flat screen TV, lights fans and a small refrigerator. I have 3 large deep cell batteries connected to it. This is not a marine rated device so I am not using in the engine room or areas where a spark could cause an explosion. It is quiet and very light compared to the 19 year old inverter that I replaced. It worked perfectly and did not cause the electronics to make any odd noise. In the paperwork it warned that it should not be used for sensitive medical devices but since I had a back-up, I used it on my C-Pap machine overnight on the boat with no problems.The connectors are a little weak considering how much power is running through it. I plan to improve the screw-in connections to better handle the large battery cables.
Impossible to expect better for the price...I am very happy.

Great for powering garage door opener in an outage!
By BigTime
from Glen Rock PA
I bought this unit specifically to power a 1/3HP Raynor opener when we experience a power outage and it works great. Because of this inverter there is no need to replace my 25 year old chain drive garage door opener with an overly expensive opener that doesn't perform as well, and won't last as long!It puts out enough power to open a 16' - 225lbs door, and my wife is able to handle hooking it up to the car and opener motor.
No problems

I bought two of these for the occasional power outage. I haven't had to use it for the intended purpose yet, but I did try it when I got it to make sure it works. Thus far very satisfied, and it powers what I wanted it to.

Bought it for travel
By Dumper
from NW Indiana
This 69660 inverter feels lighter in weight than others with the same capacity. I tested it with 2 cooking appliances, a 750 watt hot plate and a small 600 watt 2 Procter Silex 25218 burger grill. As a test, I clamped the inverter to my truck battery with the truck running, an extension cord to the hot plate, and cooked a burger. I've been putting together a small,light weight, travel cooking kit that can be packet in checked luggage for air travel. This 69660 inverter with cables weighs 2 lbs 2 oz. I've got my cooking kit down to about 7 lbs with the inverter, a hot plate, a 9" Ikea skillet a small pan and utensels.The 69817 inverter is larger and heavier at 2 lbs 9 oz. Weights checked with a small digital kitchen scale.

Now that you�ve finished your summer reading and caught up on your favorite magazine subscription, it's time to get rid of your unwanted reading materials. Here are ways to have your collection reused or recycled.
Valuable books: If you want to get something in return � be it cash or another book � post your book to an online seller like Amazon, trade-in books and other media online at swap.com or organize a book-swapping station at work.
Hardcover books: If you�re not selling or trading, it�s best to place hardcover books in a book donation bin. Let the collection organization decide if they can be donated, and if not, know that they have the means to remove the hard cover and recycle. Never place hardcover books in your recycling bin or cart at home.
Encyclopedias: These are rarely accepted for donation, but even so, a book collection organization is far better equipped to safely remove hard covers than you are with an X-Acto knife! By selling the paper, the organization can also generate much-needed funds.
Magazines: These aren�t wanted by collection organizations either. They do have soft covers, so it�s best to recycle them in your bin or cart at home. It�s also worth sharing subscriptions with a friend; you can each subscribe to one and swap half way through the month.
Damaged e-Readers: Kindle users can mail broken ones in to Amazon for recycling (tinyurl.com/recycle-kindle) and iPad users can mail theirs to Apple (apple.com/recycling). Barnes & Noble doesn�t have a take-back program for Nooks, but Best Buy will take back any tablet, no matter where you bought it (tinyurl.com/BB-ewaste).

Hi guys!
I had my 4th artificial insemination 11 days ago, with trigger shot for ovulation. (Clomid- 2 follies) I haven't felt 100% since. The past few days- I'm super tired, my boobs feel heavy and nipples are tender. DH says they look darker and larger. My tummy just feels full and bloated. Today especially I am SUPER thirsty, cannot get enough water to drink! I have some dull twinges on my right side, near ovary. I have also been nauseated off and on the past few days and just feel irritable. I'm SO scared to test and get a BFN. But I don't remember most of these symptoms in the past. What do you think? Also, When should I test?

TACOMA, Wash. – A pair of second half goals came just minutes apart to give the Puget Sound men's soccer team a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Pacific in their Northwest Conference opener on Saturday. Landon Gauthier scored both goals for the Loggers (4-1-1, 1-0-0 NWC) for their fourth straight win.
The Boxers (2-4-0, 0-1-0 NWC) were the first on the board when Mark Watson played a ball behind the Logger defense in the 16th minute. Nick Rudella ran on and was able to push it past the keeper and into the net for the 1-0 lead.
Although Pacific took the 1-0 lead early, the Loggers controlled much of the match. The Loggers earned an 8-3 shot advantage in the first half and a 16-7 shot advantage overall. They also put nine shots on goal compared to the Boxers four.
Just after halftime in the 48th minute, the Loggers earned a penalty kick, which Gauthier drove home knot the match at 1-1. About five minutes later in the 53rd minute, Sean Ryan's cross found the swinging foot of Gauthier who promptly gave the Loggers a 2-1 lead.
Chris McDonald made three saves, all in the second half, to help the Loggers hold on to the comeback win. Michael Summers made seven saves in goal for the Boxers.
The Loggers continue their NWC slate tomorrow when they host George Fox at 2:30 p.m. in Baker Stadium.

Interns 'not involved' in vetting checks
Published 30/01/2013 | 05:00
SOCIAL Welfare Minister Joan Burton has denied that interns in the Garda Vetting Unit were involved in vetting people applying to work with children.
Despite admitting some of the interns were working in clerical positions, Ms Burton said that they did not have access to sensitive or confidential material.
She confirmed that there were eight interns working in the unit under the JobBridge scheme.
"Interns were not involved in vetting checks of applicants," she said.
Ms Burton said she was advised by the Garda Siochana and the Department of Justice that "no JobBridge interns were engaged at the Garda Central Vetting Unit to administer vetting checks".

Stoke? Only it supplied the whole world with its pottery for more than a century.
Only Stoke City is the second oldest established Football club in the world and it was in the original football league- a lot more than the infamous London clubs- where I now live amongst them. It has the largest number of leagues in the Potteries than any other city for its size, and most of all produced the finest winger in the country STANLEY MATHEWS, At one time Stoke City had eleven international players, NOT IMPORTED.

My husband and I have been sharing the bed with our son since he came home from the hospital. He is now two years old. It's been great and we all love it.
Lately, however, our son has been getting out of bed at all hours to play. Sometimes, he gets angry and cries a lot when we don't join him. Normally, we keep bringing him back to bed and gently tell him it's time to sleep. Last night this process went on for hours and hours, full of tantrums.
I was wondering what other AP parents do if they have had something similar happen?

I was almost instantly emailed wondering if there was a malfunction that prevented me from finishing the order which I deleted. The next day I was called by the "shipping department" of cigarrest and they had a "second chance offer". It sounded good 8.95 for a ninety day supply with nothing more to pay EVER.
I jumped on the deal, they charged my "debit" account for a total of 8.95 after a few smaller charges (my wife is an accountant so she monitors our account closely). After about 20 days after I received the material they "hit" my account for 99 dollars (which wasn't there) so we got nailed for NSF fees and ran to the bank to take out what was there so we would have groceries for the week.
After fuming with cigarrest customer (no)service and anyone who would listen to me, I overnighted what was left of the material. After I was paid the amount was then STOLEN from my account and eventually credited back presumably after they received the material.
During this period I did notify the better business bureau and they assigned case number 23010705 - Bernheim and Rice INC.
It's very unfortunate that they choose to practice business this way because the fact of the matter is I was successful in quitting smoking and have been smoke free for two months now.

Arsenal have been strongly linked with Fabian Schar before, and should Thomas Vermaelen leave the Emirates this summer it would be incredibly surprising if Arsene Wenger didn't revive his interest in the Basel defender.
Statistically, the Switzerland international was the best defender in the Champions League last season, as detailed below…
And his World Cup performances weren't too bad either, making eight interceptions during two outings at Brazil 2014.
The 22 year-old has an interesting knack for scoring goals, even taking up spot kick duties for Bebbi:
And also netted this incredible strike as a youngster at FC Wil:
A proactive, forward-thinking centre-back with considerable quality on the ball, Schar would fit perfectly with Arsenal's possession-based philosophy.
But there are a number of suitors allegedly baying for his signature this summer, including Barcelona, Manchester United and local rivals Tottenham:

How can reduce the size of the galley display. it is to big and users have to scroll to go to the next image.
here is what I use to call the gallery
[nggallery id=x]
Any thoughts?
How can reduce the size of the galley display. it is to big and users have to scroll to go to the next image.
here is what I use to call the gallery
[nggallery id=x]
Any thoughts?
I had this same problem too. Fortunately its an easy fix.
From the dashboard, go to Gallery>Manage Gallery. You should see the gallery (and any others you have created) listed, with a checkbox and ID # to the left of each gallery. Simply check the box next to the name of your gallery and select "Resize images" from the action drop down menu. If you haven't previously specified image dimensions then you'll be given a width and height box to fill in. Once this is complete just hit the "Apply" button to the right of the drop down and all the images in the gallery will be resized.
While resizing after the fact is easy enough, you can avoid this little chore in the future by setting NextGen to resize the images upon upload. From the dashboard go to Gallery>Options>Images. On this screen you will see a number of settings, including height and width attributes as well a box to check to "Automatically resize" images.
I hope that helps- please let me know if you have any questions.
I'm not getting any change in my enlarged image of the thumbnail with your tips?
Clicking on a thumbnail in the gallery brings up the thumbnail image that fills the entire screen and scrolling down is required.
I went into Manage gallery and also Option>Images to try the re-sizing.
Is there a different file or area in the dashboard for nextgen that should be adjusted?
I am getting the same problem as jmahaney. Everything is re sized in the Manage Gallery BUT my post displays en enlarged version of the images.
I want my post to display the original picture size, how do I go about that please?
I have had the same problem but have found somewhat of a solution, although not an ideal one. Please note, I am using the Image Browser version of the gallery. So I go to the Image Browser Style area of the stylesheet and changed the top and bottom margins and the width:
.ngg-imagebrowser img {
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
width: 100%;
.ngg-imagebrowser img {
margin-top: 30px;
margin-bottom: 30px;
width: 60%;
The reason I had to change both width and top/bottom margins is because some of my pics are horizontal and some are vertical. A similar logic should work with the slideshow, if that is what you are using.
I´ve got the same problem. Tried your code, anitasavia, but it didn´t solve the issue. I´m not sure if I use the imagebrowser or what. I use the nggallery id=# code to display the gallery and when I click on a thumbnail an ENLARGED (and thus ugly pixeled!) version of the pic shows up. (is that the imagebrowser?) If I choose to view it with the Slideshow the pics are shown correctly.
And @Alex Rabe to the wishlist: an option to choose what and where to link pictures - I personally don´t want to see another version of the same picture in a new window when I click on the pic. On the other hand - if it was possible to assign a custom link to every picture in the gallery I could enhance the (truly great) album feature with more levels (one picture links to another gallery where the pictures there link to new galleries etc...)
@anitasavia - sorry! Forgot to empty the cache! It works perfect. Thx!!! Now I only need to fix the navigation... still in 100% width...

Hilda Hellström (b 1984 Gothenburg, Sweden) graduated from her MFA at the Royal College of Art in London in 2012. Her work has, among other institutions, been exhibited at London Design Museum, MUDAC Lausanne, V&A, The British Craft Council, Gothenburg Museum of Art, MAK Vienna and Shanghai Power Station Art Museum.
Her work revolves around investigations in the subjective understandings of our reality. The understanding we receive through our senses rather than our rationale. Working with materials that, for the observer, often are unfamiliar, she plays with the undefinable in regards to materials, hierarchies, value systems and definitions. This has involved studies about imitation in relation to authenticity and different ways to interpret what we classify as 'natural'. More specifically she has been working with geology and the formation of rock. This incredible rigidity that nevertheless is in constant motion. On a practical level one could say that she studies the ways of nature as if its processes belonged to those of a craftsman. Analogous to an apprentice she then recreates those movements of nature, appropriated into processes that are specific to her practice. To emphasize the sensuous part of an object she has at times worked with the medium of film in relation to objects, in an attempt to captivate the audience in another world for a while.
Hellström currently lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The striker was forced off on the hour mark in Saturday's disappointing 1-0 defeat at fellow strugglers Walsall having appeared to have pulled a stomach muscle.
Ibehre will now be monitored in the build-up to the Bees' visit as the U's aim to halt a woeful run of form which has seen them lose eight of their last nine games.
Fellow forward Gavin Massey returns to contention following his three-match ban, providing a welcome option for under-pressure boss Joe Dunne.
Marcus Bean and Magnus Okuonghae made their comebacks from suspension against the Saddlers but were only named on the bench, with the pair pushing to start this time around.
Colchester have announced the capture of Portsmouth winger Jack Compton but the 24-year-old is not available to play until January when the transfer window opens.

D3100 Shutter Release Problem
Hi Folks;
After resetting some menu items I found after depressing the shutter release that the viewfinder window remains black until I release the shutter button. After going through all the menu items that seemed to apply, I called Nikon. The rep said he had never heard of the problem and had me reset all to the defaults. The viewfinder window then showed the view (was not black) after the shot without having to release the shutter button. Super.
Made a few changes to the menus - ITS BAAACK. Has anyone else encountered this problem and do you know what menu item or combination causes this to happen? This happens with several different lenses on the D3100.
Thanks, Jim

It sounds like you might be trying to use "live view" at the same time that you're looking through the view finder. If the rear display is on (live view) the viewfinder will be blacked out.
I hope that helps.

Have you perhaps selected Manual Exposure, and Bulb setting? That would cause the shutter to remain open (and viewfinder blacked out) until you release the shutter button.

I have used the camera several times since and have not had a re-occurrence of the problem. If I am initiating this by the way I handle the camera, it is not something I have been able to make happen again with my normal shooting procedures.
When I reported the problem to Nikon, the rep had me read back the camera menu settings I was using and he didn't hear anything untoward. Guess I'll keep an eye on the two possible causes suggested here and see if I inadvertently invoke them again.

I'm guessing, because I don't have a D3100, but I think you're describing how quiet mode works. You press the button and the mirror comes up to take the picture, but the mirror doesn't return until you release the button.

I followed the instruction and a create a wrapper for myapp.jar and generated myapp.exe. The myapp.exe works ok as far as I can see. I created a file myapp.j4l.ini in the same directory as myapp.exe and added -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8. I added some code in myapp.exe to display both System.getProperty("file.encoding") and System.getEnv(). Both calls fails on finding the file.encoding. As if the myapp.j4l.ini is not being used at all. I'm running this on WinXP SP2 with JRESE1.6. Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?

"This Changes Everything" Film and Discussion
Wednesday, March 16, 2016, 6-9pm in MPR 3
Based on Naomi Klein's book, the film, "This Changes Everything" attempts to re-imagine the vast challenge of climate change. It features seven communities around the world with the proposition that we can seize the crisis of climate change to transform our failed economic system into something radically better. "This Changes Everything" will leave you refreshed and inspired, reflecting on the ties between us, the kind of lives we really want, and why the climate crisis is at the center of it all. Professor David B. Field (Department of Natural & Computational Sciences) and Joshua Noga (Conservation Program Coordinator at the Sierra Club of Hawaii) will facilitate a discussion following the film. Refresments will be provided.
Paepae O He'eia Fishpond Restoration
Saturday, April 9, 2016, 8:30am-1pm
Paepae o He`eia's vision is to perpetuate a foundation of cultural sustainability for communities (ohana) of Hawai`i through education. Their mission is to implement values and concepts from the model of a traditional fishpond to provide intellectual, physical, and spiritual sustenance for our community. To reach their vision, they utilize the strengths of the fishpond as a place of learning to weave ancestral knowledge together with western ways of knowing to achieve their goals.
Just as Paepae o He`eia serves as a model for sustainability education, this HPU community work day is dedicated to another great model for sustainability education in Hawaii – Dr. Art Whatley – as he prepares for retirement from HPU. Through the Global Leadership and Sustainable Development graduate program he created, he has taught, challenged, and inspired hundreds of students to become agents of change. So what better way to celebrate his passion, dedication, and commitment to a more sustainable world then to give back to our community!
Participants will help restore and rehabilitate the kuapā - fishpond wall - and the fishpond contained within it. Participants will move rock and coral, fill buckets, haul floating barges through the water, cut/pull out invasive mangrove, remove invasive limu, and pick up trash. Participants should wear closed-toed shoes/boots/tabis and clothing suitable for getting dirty, wet and working in the sun. Participants should bring a reusable water bottle, a change of clothes, sunscreen and bug spray. A hat, sunglasses or bandana are also recommended. Lunch will be provided.
Bus departs ATM at 7:30am and will stop to pick up students at HLC at approximately 7:50am. Please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to departure time.

Theater Review: Emotional war wounds go deepBy Jim LoweLindsay Raymondjack Photo
Robert Harte is James and Chris Caswell is Sarah, both journalists damaged by war, in Vermont Stage Companys production of Time Stands Still at the Flynn Center in Burlington.
Wars effects on those who observe it can be as tragic as the effects on the soldiers who fight it. In Donald Margulies powerful drama Time Stands Still, a photographer and a reporter attempt to piece back together their lives after being damaged in very different ways.
Vermont Stage Company, Burlingtons full-season professional ensemble, opened a deeply felt and emotionally riveting production of Time Stands Still on Wednesday at FlynnSpace that was not without its light and humorous moments.
In this contemporary tale, James has just brought home his girlfriend of eight years, Sarah, a photojournalist who is recovering from serious wounds suffered in a war in the Middle East. James is clearly devoted, cloyingly so, in part because he had had a breakdown in the same war earlier and left her there.
Into this scene comes their close mutual friend, Richard, a magazine photo editor, who has his new, much younger girlfriend in tow. James and Sarahs response to Mandy is polite but somewhat disdainful of her seeming superficiality.
James and Sarah both poke fun at Richards new relationship but gradually reveal themselves to be much more troubled than the new couple, and one much more so than the other. Their attempt to sort out their lives and relationship powerfully delivers the message that war, indeed, harms everyone.
Fortunately, it also delivers hope.
Vermont Stages production, deftly directed by Gregory Amos, delivers the real humanness of this emotional drama. The particularly fine cast proved most adept at ensemble acting, keeping emotions taut except for some wonderfully funny moments.
Chris Caswell delivered a fully dimensional and powerful performance as Sarah, the adrenalin-addicted photographer, who masks deep issues with an overly rational affect. She is well matched by Robert Harte as James, who, despite an overuse of his hands when talking, touchingly revealed the characters emotional damage.
Paul Ugalde presented a particularly dimensional performance as Richard, successfully blending his concern for his friends and his newfound joy. Kari Buckley proved convincing and perfectly natural as Mandy, whose lack of sophistication belies a deeply caring person.
Vermont Stages physical production was attractive, with a realistic loft setting by Blair Mielnik and appropriate costumes by Suzanne Kneller. Martha Goodes effective sound design, evoking the sounds of war, could have used more dramatic lighting, but John Paul Devlins design was certainly adequate.
Vermont Stages Time Stands Still proved a most powerful and rewarding theater experience.

Richard Eskow: Simpson and Bowles, those two hired pitchmen for budget-cutting hysteria, are still hawking an economy-killing product called "austerity economics," a product that's designed to benefit their wealthy patrons at everybody else's expense.
Fiscal Cliff: Wall Street's Latest Scam
RJ Eskow: The CEOs of America's largest corporations have banded together to lecture us on the importance of debt reduction. And despite their lack of qualifications and their very obvious self-interest, the media can't get enough of them.
A Tale of Two Town Halls
Joseph Palermo: The Republican House members who voted for Paul Ryan's Ayn Rand wet-dream budget are apparently getting an earful from their constituents.
Obama Fights Fire with Gasoline
Robert Reich: The President has to reframe the debate around the necessity of average families having enough to spend to get the economy moving again. He needs to remind America this is not 1995 but 2011 — and we're still in a jobs crisis brought on by the bursting of a giant debt bubble and the implosion of total demand.
Social Insecurity
Jerry Drucker: Social Security has proven to be the greatest and most successful national social program ever created in the history of the world. The question becomes, why should we Americans feel insecure about Social Security? The trust fund today is secure and will be paying out at the current rates for at least 21 years from now. Well then if it's not broken
Obama Wooing Economic Royalists
Norman Solomon: The best way to defeat right-wing xenophobic "populism" is to build genuine progressive populism. In the process, we can draw on the spirit of the New Deal.

Joseph Palermo: After a decade of stagnant or declining real wages, "bipartisan" schemes are proliferating to shift the burden of Washington policymakers' own catastrophic mismanagement of the nation's fiscal policies right onto the shoulders of working people.
Deficit Commission: Keynesian by Default
John Peeler: The fact is, neither liberals nor conservatives, neither Republicans nor Democrats, have the stomach for the major sacrifices that Simpson and Bowles are calling for, and it's not at all clear that the public in general is ready either.
Why We Should Beware Budget-Deficit Mania
Robert Reich: The first draft of the President's deficit commission, written by its co-chairmen Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson, is a pastiche of ideas – some good, some dumb, some intriguing, some wacky. The only unifying principle behind their effort seems to be to throw enough at the wall that something's bound to stick.

Legendary Canadian author Farley Mowat has passed away. He was 92-years-old. Mowat was born in Belleville, but raised in Saskatchewan, and known best for his stories about the Canadian wilderness. He sold more than 17 million books in his career winning countless awards, including the Govenor General's Award in 1956 for the novel 'Lost in the Barrens'. Close friend and Green Party leader Elizabeth May got emotional when talking about Mowat, who was her daughter's godfather.
"If you're so lucky to have a friend like Farley Mowat, you know they're irreplaceable," she told reporters. "It's not like somebody else like Farley Mowat is going to come along to be that kind of friend, that kind of mentor, that kind of, well, inspiration."
The prime minister released a statement, extending his "deepest condolences" to Mowat's family and friends.
"Mr. Mowat will be remembered as a passionate Canadian. His legacy will live on in the treasure of Canadian literature he leaves behind, which will remain a joy to both new and old fans around the world," prime minister Stephen Harper says.
Mowat was given a star on Canada's Walk of Fame in 2010, and was made an officer of the Order of Canada in 1981.

Scott Goodstein, who headed up Obama's social networking and mobile technology outreach, is enthusiastic, too.
He said Democrats only scratched the surface when it came to mobile technology during the last election.
"Text messaging is the fastest way to get your message to people. More than 151 million Americans are currently text messaging," said Goodstein, who is now helping nonprofit groups better utilize technology. "More people have a telephone on them than are walking around with a laptop."

Provincial Police are trying to find out who left bullets in a hallway of a Caledon school. St Cornelius Catholic Elementary School in Caledon East was placed under a hold and secure around 1 o'clock on Thursday as a result of the find. Officers from the OPP brought in the canine unit and searched the entire school, including students' backpacks. Bruce Campbell with the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board says the search turned up nothing out of the ordinary and no weapon was ever found. He says they are still not sure where the bullets came from, or who belong to, but police are still investigating. The school houses students from kindergarten to grade 8.
This letter was sent home to parents:
January 9, 2014
Dear Parents and Guardians:
This afternoon, our school was placed in Hold and Secure as a result of the discovery of a package containing three bullets found on school property. Caledon OPP are investigating. We are co-operating closely with the OPP who advise, based on their preliminary investigation, that they do not believe there is any safety concern for the school.
As you would be aware, we strive to make sure that St. Cornelius is a safe, caring, healthy and inclusive environment for all. This is an unusual occurrence, but one we take very seriously. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.

BEIJING -- China's new leader, Xi Jinping, impressed many people with a plain-spoken promise to address problems in the country's ruling party Thursday, but his new leadership team offered few clues as to a clear shift in direction.
Xi, who formally took over from Hu Jintao as general secretary of the Communist Party on Thursday, was presented to foreign and domestic reporters after a highly scripted party congress intended mainly to laud the work of Hu and set very broad priorities for Xi's tenure.
According to tradition, Xi appeared onstage the day after the congress ended with other members of the party's Politburo Standing Committee, the seven-member body that effectively runs China.
Xi then gave a speech on live television that avoided most of the slogans that characterized Hu's recent addresses. In fact, he did not mention Hu or any of his predecessors, instead calling on the party to fight corruption and promising to continue China's "rejuvenation."
"Inside the party, there are many problems that need to be addressed, especially the problems among party members and officials of corruption and taking bribes, being out of touch with the people, undue emphasis on formalities and bureaucracy and other issues," Xi said.
He also pledged to improve citizens' lives, including offering "better schooling, more stable jobs, more satisfying incomes, more reliable social security, higher levels of health care, more comfortable housing conditions and a more beautiful environment," so they can "look forward to their children growing up in better circumstances, finding better work and living in better conditions."
"People's striving for a better life is the goal we are struggling for," he added.
Reflecting his upbringing as the son of a high-ranking official in Beijing, Xi spoke in clear Mandarin Chinese, making him one of the first modern Chinese leaders whose speech does not bear the heavy accents of an upbringing in one of China's provinces.
Xi takes office with more titular authority than any Chinese leader in history. He will now be the chief of the ruling Communist Party and will take over sooner than expected from Hu as the chairman of the Central Military Commission, the top overseer of China's armed forces. Next spring, he will assume the position of state president. Other leaders in the post-Mao era have had more staggered transitions into the top posts.
Even so, Xi will have to contend with numerous other well-connected princelings, or sons and daughters of influential past leaders, and a factionalized Communist Party that tends to operate by consensus rather than strongman rule. He is unlikely to have the sweeping authority of Mao Zedong or Deng Xiaoping.
Although Xi's appointment has been expected since 2007, when he was essentially named Hu's successor, it was the first chance for the Chinese to see him in action. Li Zhong, a retired county leader in Hebei province who served there at the same time as Xi in the early 1980s, noted that Xi had not repeated many of Hu's slogans.
"Instead, he stressed the party's responsibilities to the masses and the heroism of the people, as well as the need to root out corruption in the party," Li said. "He was very frank and showed his consideration for the people."
Others were more critical.
"I read Xi's speech," Jian Heng, a guest professor at Shantou University in Guangdong province, wrote on Weibo. "He mentioned the word 'party' 20 times; 'people' appeared 19 times; 'responsibility' was said 10 times and 'problems' 3 times. Didn't use anything related to law. No 'law,' no 'constitution,' no 'rule of law' nor 'democracy,' no 'freedom.'"
No one can know for sure whether Xi favors fundamental political changes of that kind -- he has given no clear indication that he does. What is clear is that his fellow members of the Standing Committee are longtime party veterans whose track records provide no evidence of a strong impulse to change the way China is governed, and whose ages mean they will probably have relatively short careers in the country's top ruling body.

When Frylock, DP and a drunken Shake are in Frylock's room, Shake is dancing with the cardboard cutout woman from Ol' Drippy.
Stickers inside Skeeter's car: "You may not like us, but your girlfriend does." "Dave Matthews Cover Band Cover Band." "Thank you for POT smoking."
When Carl talks about being able to see the laser grid security system from space, the scene shifts to a rising aerial view of the neighborhood and Carl's house. But the house on the right of Carl's house is not the Aqua Teens.'
Side Switching: Early in the episode, Shake breaks off the right side of his glasses because he sticks it in the laser at Carls house. Later in the episode when Shake is drunk and laying on the cardboard lady, he has the glasses on, but the left side is broken off instead of the right.
Blooper: When Frylock is talking to Skeeter on the computer, The Pledge's legs are visible in the background, but when Frylock ties DP to the rocket, The Pledge is laying in front of their house.
Blooper: When DP wakes up the morning after he crashed, it is made known that he lost his "party probe" by sticking it in the laser and cutting it off. Later on, when they're all in the house finding where DP needs to go, his "party probe" is completely intact.
(While DP is trying to explain what the initials stand for)
Shake: Dude Pal! 'Cause you're my dude! Pal!
DP: You guys seen my probe?
Frylock (pointing to DP's probe by the laser grid, twitching): Yeah it kinda got burned off by the laser, I guess you thought it was a woman's breasts or something...
DP: Oh are you serious?
Frylock: Yeah.
DP: Well, did I score with her?
Frylock: Oh, for crying out...it was a LASER
DP: Ohhh busted!
Shake: Someone's a little bi-curious!
Meatwad: I ain't no bi-curious, I'm a man's man!
Shake: It's too late! For I have planted the seed of doubt!
Shake: I hold my booze...my BOOZE!
Frylock: Yeah...and that's drink number two for him isn't it?
Shake: ...And I look at boobs all day too!
Shake: DP, I'm about to throw...down...dude. I almost said throw up...but I didn't.
DP: Oh, oh wait, uh hang on. Did you see, like uhhh uh, a little...naked dude out on the street anywhere?
Frylock: Uh yeah, I think he's dead. (The dead frat alien twitches.)
DP: (In a sullen tone) Are you serious? Well, when he wakes up, make him drink.
Meatwad: What was that noise?! (He clears his throat) Like I give a bullcrap. I'm a man, boy. I'm macho. I ain't no bi-curious. If I was that, how come my muscles be all big? And wearing this spandex?
Shake: Right...You're full-blown gay!
Carl: Are these friends of yours, Fryman?
DP: Hey where's the club, I need to piss.
Carl: They came from space, you know...typically that means... you're somehow connected.
Carl's Answering Machine: This is Carl, leave a message, or uh leave me alone either way, I don't care. Unless this is mom, and in that case...Happy Mothers Day.
The sound effect used for the stump is a howler monkey screaming, played backward.

While denying being gay or bi-curious, Meatwad's outfit seems remarkably similar to the worn by the biker member of the famous and commonly gay-themed band.

…because no one else will.
I thought the GOP never met a war it didn't like. Thank God they DON'T like this one.
Now Obama needs to stop listening to Kerry and think about how the American people and the whole International community are against this!!
AOL did an unscientific survey and 70% of AOL users voted against war.
The liberals sucker everyone to follow..
A biblical plague is overdue.
We haven't had a "good" war, at least with real justification, since WW II. (Korea was a "police action" and there WAS and actual invasion by the north, and there is still no actual "peace treaty", only a cease fire.)
"Humanitarian" actions, that kill additional people, aren't as humanitarian, even if killing FEWER people, than diplomatic solutions. Hmm, Iran/Contra was also about a civill war, and Reagan's side LOST that one, hmmm, Viet Nam?
While I am indeed against a war itself, there is a slight problem with just doing nothing. That is, that IF Assad and his military really did use chemical weapons against even his own people, then does doing nothing about this then encourage such actions in the future? Especially by such dictatorial regimes in such places as the Middle East? And can any reasonable civilization of mankind then allow such actions to continue, unopposed and unabated? Further, just what is to stop such people from using even worst weaponry, such as biological agents, or even nuclear weapons? Would diplomacy, or even sanctions, without actual military action actually stop such horrors from happening? Personally, I must admit that there are no easy answer to such questions. But, is doing absolutely nothing in the way of military action the answer?
No that is the Conservative chicken hawks who are for any war and sucker others including a few Liberals it it. Got it backwards.
Remember the N K's beat S. K from invading them.
Let us send kits to protect against the effects of poison gas and treatment. Positive and not pick sides. Everything else is wrong.
Sooo, what would happen if say the UN voted to Turn Their Backs (even literally!) on Assad; NO assistance of any kind, don't return his phone calls, total shunning, embargo.
How long can he hold his breath?
Whoever said "War is Hell" underestimated War. The trick with Hell is that you KNOW its forever. With War there's aways the need to fracture the mind so you don't dwell on the chances of becoming a casualty. It lacks the certainty of Hell, and this, in a very real way, makes it worse.
More false assumption by the liberal posters.
