On the day that Prize applications open Hanan Al Hroub calls on Governments and aid agencies to ensure there is adequate funding and support measures for "traumatised" child refugees arriving in host countries
Hanan Al Hroub, who won the Varkey Foundation's US$1 million Global Teacher Prize 2016, today urged all UAE school pupils and parents to nominate their most inspirational teacher to win next year's Prize.
The prize is awarded under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai.
Hanan Al Hroub, who was herself born in a refugee camp in Bethlehem, also called on Governments and aid agencies to ensure there is adequate funding, school places and social service support for traumatised refugee children entering new host countries.
Al Hroub, who won the Global Teacher prize for developing her 'play and learn' technique to help traumatised Palestinian primary school children, said:
"As I have experienced in my conflict-riven homeland, children who see conflict around them on a daily basis experience profound and deep-rooted psychological harm. It is therefore crucial that children that arrive in a new host country have a safe, secure and loving environment.
"The role of education for refugee children is not only to teach them to read and write, it is also to give them the resilience and persistence they need to deal with what they have experienced, and to avoid repeating the violence they have witnessed. 79% of children had experienced a death in the family, while 45% displayed symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, 10 times the usual prevalence in children.
"Investment in language programmes is essential so that children can access schools in the country they are living in – it has been identified by the Migration Policy Institute as the primary reason children drop out of school in their host country."
The US$1 million award is the largest prize of its kind. It was established to recognise one exceptional teacher who has made an outstanding contribution to the profession as well as to shine a spotlight on the important role teachers play in society. By unearthing thousands of stories of heroes that transform young people's lives, the prize hopes to bring to life the exceptional work of millions of teachers all over the world.
If UAE teachers apply, or are nominated, they could be potentially shortlisted as top 50 candidates later in the year and their inspirational stories publicised, helping to raise the bar of respect for the profession.
Sunny Varkey, Founder of the Global Teacher Prize, said: "Teachers matter. Teachers like Hanan Al Hroub, who heal young minds as well as teach them, are a shining example to us all. Now, more than ever before we need great teachers to grow great minds in order to solve the world's problems. Raising the bar of respect and celebrating teachers across the world will ultimately play a vital role in helping to recruit and retain the most talented candidates for the profession."
The applicants for the Global Teacher Prize 2017 will be shortlisted down to a top fifty and then a final ten, which will be announced in February 2017. The winner will be chosen from the ten finalists by the Global Teacher Prize Academy made up of prominent individuals.
All ten finalists will be flown to Dubai for an award ceremony taking place at the Global Education and Skills Forum in March 2017 where the winner will be announced live. The closing date for applications is 14 October 2016.
Since its launch in March 2014, the Global Teacher Prize has received huge global support from heads of state, prime ministers, education ministers, business leaders and NGO heads. The Pope also met a selection of shortlisted candidates inside the Vatican. The story of the top ten finalists and the eventual winners, including Nancie Atwell, a teacher from Maine, US, in 2015, was written and broadcast by some of the world's most influential media outlets.
The Prize is open to currently working teachers who teach children that are in compulsory schooling, or are between the ages of five and eighteen. Teachers who teach on a part-time basis are also eligible, as are teachers of online courses. It is open to teachers in every kind of school and, subject to local laws, in every country in the world.
The public can nominate a teacher, or teachers can apply themselves by filling an application form at globalteacherprize.org. If teachers are being nominated, the person nominating them will write a brief description online explaining why. The teacher being nominated will then be sent an email letting them know they've been nominated and inviting them to apply for the prize. Applicants can apply in English, Mandarin, Arabic, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian. To join the conversation online follow @TeacherPrize and #teachersmatter on: www.twitter.com/TeacherPrize and www.facebook.com/TeacherPrize

The Prize Committee and the Academy will look for evidence that applicants for the Varkey Foundation Global Teacher Prize meet the following criteria:
- Recognition of a teacher's achievements in the classroom and beyond from pupils, colleagues, head-teachers or members of the wider community.
- Employing innovative and effective instructional practices
- Achieving demonstrable student learning outcomes in the classroom.
- Ensuring children receive a values-based education that prepares them to be global citizens in a world where they will encounter people from many different religions, cultures and nationalities.

Without compromising their work in the classroom, the winner will be asked to serve as a global ambassador for the Varkey Foundation, attending public events and speaking in public forums about improving the prestige of the teaching profession. A condition of winning the prize is that the winner remains as a classroom teacher for at least five years.
- Teachers who are applying will have to provide references from their current supervisor and up to two additional references. These can include video testimonials about their work in the classroom and beyond, and can come from pupils, colleagues, head-teachers as well as members of the wider community.
- PriceWaterhouseCooper will be responsible for ensuring that the balloting process is fair and accurate. Criminal record and other background checks will be conducted on the shortlisted candidates.
- The terms and conditions of the prize nullify any applications from those with criminal convictions. The winner will be expected to remain an upstanding citizen and do nothing to bring the profession of teachers into disrepute. Any outstanding payments will cease to any winner who has not met these standards.
- The Global Teacher Prize is part of the Varkey Foundation's long-standing commitment to improve the status of teachers. In November 2013, the foundation published the Global Teacher Status Index, the first attempt to compare attitudes towards teachers in 21 countries. The index found that there were significant differences between the status of teachers worldwide. The survey also found that in many countries, between a third and half of parents would "probably" or "definitely not" encourage their children to enter the teaching profession. The full Global Teacher Status Index can be found at:

Despite promises to work on the problem, the Transit Authority has failed to improve its system of communicating with riders on trains, with many announcements either nonexistent or too garbled to understand, according to a study released yesterday by a riders' advocacy group.
The three-month study, which was done by the Straphangers Campaign, essentially confirms what many New Yorkers say they already know: that transit officials do a poor job of getting important information to riders. For instance, two out of every three announcements of a subway delay or rerouting are either filled with incomplete information or not issued at all, the study found.
In 1996, the group released a similar study that prompted transit officials to appoint a task force to find ways of turning up the volume on inaudible and incomplete announcements. Though changes were made in requiring conductors to inform riders of service changes, the results released yesterday virtually paralleled those of the 1996 study.
''We were hopeful that the Transit Authority would make substantial improvements in giving riders timely and useful information,'' Gene Russianoff, the group's lawyer, said yesterday after a news conference at the Times Square subway station. ''But the study shows they are still doing a poor job of getting riders the kind of information they need and deserve.''
To conduct the study, 77 people took 5,300 rides on 17 train lines across the city. They found that basic announcements about the next stop and train transfers were either not made or were inaudible on 46 percent of the trips. On some trains, particularly on the 2, 3, 5, 7, A, D, F, L and N lines, the useless announcements loomed as large as another major irritant: litter-strewn cars.
The No. 2 line was rated worst in providing information, with announcements either garbled or inaudible 67 percent of the time, the Straphangers Campaign said. The study rated trains on the B line best at giving riders good information.Continue reading the main story
The findings came as no surprise to riders like Tina Carter. ''I'm usually late a couple times of week because the conductors don't speak up or tell me what I need to do to get where I'm going,'' she said.
Transit officials insisted they had made progress. ''The Straphangers seem to be saying that we should give riders reasons why a train isn't moving,'' Jared Lebow, a transit spokesman, said. ''Our information suggests that riders only want the information that immediately affects them,'' he said, explaining that riders want to be told that a train is delayed or out of service, not necessarily why. He conceded that about a third of the information that trains provide could be improved.
Mr. Lebow said the agency is stepping up its effort to improve announcements, but added, ''When you run a service the size of ours you try to get 100 percent good announcements, but you're not always going to do it.''Continue reading the main story

Recently, artists Jay-Z and Beyonce were mobbed by excited fans as they celebrated their 5th wedding anniversary in Havana, Cuba. Many fans went crazy as the Carters stroll through the Cuban capital. But during this supposedly fun vacation for this couple, two Republican members of the US Congress questioned their licenses to visit this communist-led island.
Congress members, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart, both Republicans from Florida, have asked the US treasury department to confirm the power-couples' clearance to make the visit. The controversy stems from the ongoing US trade embargo against Cubam which prevents American citizens from traveling to the Caribbean country without a special license that is given by the US government.
Because of this conflict, many politicians spent days wondering whether or not the US government approved of this "educational" trip. A few days after, they found out that the Treasury Department did, in fact, give the couple full approval to visit Cuba. Are politicians satisfied with this answer to their question? Of course not.
In a recent interview with CNN, Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, who was one of the people that had a big problem with this matter, expressed her feelings by slamming the Obama Administration. Lehtinen stated, "If the tourist activities undertaken by Beyoncé and Jay-Z in Cuba are classified as an educational exchange trip, then it is clear that the Obama Administration is not serious about denying the Castro regime an economic lifeline that US tourism will extend to it. That was a wedding anniversary vacation that was not even disguised as a cultural program. As more human rights activists engage in hunger strikes, I don't think they will see any evidence of how this scam endeavor will help them become independent of the regime".
The US embargo has been in place for more than fifty years now. This issue that caused the embargo to be put in place is no longer relevant. Since Jay-Z and Beyonce's itinerary was open to the public and all their activities were for "historical purposes," the government should not make a big deal out of this situation. The couple did no harm during their vacation.

Monster Curves Review
Our Review
January 08, 2013 | By Vee | Big Ass :: Discount Deals
When I walk into a bar the first thing I check out is (duh) the babes, and the fact that their backs are usually to me works out just fine. I am an unabashed ass man, and I can pick out prospects from that vantage point just fine. Most of the time when you turn them around you're going to find great tits to match a nice ass!
I just wish I had a pub in my neighborhood that could boast of two or three babes built like the Monster Curves chicks! They've got juicy tits, bodacious backfields, and the sex drive required to put them to good use! As a member of this site you'll also have access to one of the largest collections of original smut floating around in cyberspace, touching on every reality hardcore category!
"Monster Curves is the best big butt site on the net!"
A big boob blonde babe like Aryan probably does well selling lingerie door to door when a guy answers, and if she's giving away a shot at that marvelous booty and those scrumptious tits with every sale this ho will be able to retire early! It sure works on the dude from Monster Curves. After modeling one of the hottest items those boobs just seemed to fall out, and after some mouth to cunt resuscitation that fat pussy gets stuffed with cock!
Abbey is another gorgeous babe who truly lives up to the Monster Curves moniker. Her scene, added to the site today, starts off with a trip to the store to buy her a new bikini and ends up with the two of them hooking up in the dressing room! That scene brought the number of episodes on Monster curves up to forty eight, all of them original productions that include both movies and still pictures. A new feature is added to the site every week.
There are some incredibly hot babes on this site, and you can see more of many (if not most) of them. As a subscriber you'll enjoy access to more than twenty two exclusive sites in the Reality Kings Network. Name a kind of hardcore porn and it's here: tranny, lesbian, big tits, big butts, Latinas, party sex, cumshots, teens, amateurs, MILFs, ebony, blowjobs, amateurs and porn auditions, Brazilian babes, and some truly wild and crazy mixed/combined niche reality sites!
They've already got over four thousand exclusive episodes on the Reality Kings Network, and they add two or three new episodes every day. Along with Monster Curves they updated Euro Sex Parties and We Live Together today; yesterday it was Mike's Apartment and Big Naturals, and before that Cum Fiesta and Money Talks. There's a link on the episode page to all the scenes featuring the babe or babes, and the site has search functionality too.
Videos on all the sites, come full length, in long scenes of eight to fifteen plus minutes, and in one minute scenes. You have the option to stream them into an on-site player or save them to your personal library – and these are good ones for that. In fact, you can also download a zip file of the digital photo galleries every scene has. Most scenes I checked out also had a second gallery of screen grabs. All images are large, and if anything there may be too many pictures in the galleries!
A few scenes do seem to draw out the setup/intro section of the videos, but aside from that I discovered no problems with the material on this or any of the other Reality Kings websites!
Big butts, beautiful babes, steamin' sex – that's Monster Curves in a nutshell! They offer the kind of hardcore reality erotica that makes the genre so popular. The performers are awesome, the material is technically state of the art while still completely accessible, and the overall way they've set up the website is quite effective.
That doesn't just apply to Monster Curves, but instead applies to the entire Reality Kings network. As a subscriber you'll enjoy access to a collection of exclusive smut that goes back seven years, contains thousands of scenes, and gets updated with two or three new features every day. I'm pleased to give two thumbs and a stiff boner up to a Monster Curves/Reality Kings membership!

What is G-20? Essay
Sorry, but copying text is forbidden on this website!
In the year 1999, a forum called Group of Twenty (G-20) was established, aiming to discuss about the important issues regarding the global economy. In this group, the finance minister and central bank governors these twenty industrialized or developing countries opens up discussion about topics, such as the markets within the country and things relating to the global economic stability. The first meeting, or the inaugural meeting was held on December 15th and 16th, 1999 in Berlin, hosted by Germany and Canadian minister.
Initially, it was created as a responsive action to the global crisis that happened in the late 1990s. Since then, there have been agreements made regarding policies for growth, reducing abuse of the financial system, dealing with transparency of fiscal policies, financial crises and combating terrorists financing. Moreover, in 2004, the G-20 has decided a higher standard to fight issues such as money laundering and tax matters. By these actions decided by the G-20, they have helped to give more support for further financial development and growth, not only for the 20 countries, but worldwide across the world.
Ranging from countries in Europe, Africa to Asia, these countries altogether control 90% of the total gross domestic product (GDP) of the world, 80% of the world trade and two thirds of the world's population. By means of this evidence, it is proven that even though the G-20 only consists of 20 countries, they are the centre or majority of the world financial activities and population.
What is the Benefit for Indonesia and for the World?
Indonesia is a country known for the high terrorism activity, such as massive bombing or suicidal bombing. By the help of G-20, Indonesia is able to gain several benefits, such as the decreasing amount of financing for terrorism, which also means a decrease in the amount of terrorist activity. In addition, this country may benefit from the agreements made by the G-20, such as those related to transparency of fiscal, tax evasion and money laundering. The benefits for Indonesia could be felt in a direct impact, because all the problems that the G-20 are trying to resolve all happens in Indonesia. For example, money laundering was a very popular type of fraud a few years ago, but since the 2004, the amount of problems and issues has decreased drastically.
Not only for Indonesia, have the G-20 given plenty of benefit for the world, especially, towards the importance of economic growth for underdeveloped countries, like those in Africa and Asia. By having a forum like G-20, a more solid and firm financial structure can be created for the world, preventing it from falling during times like the financial crisis. Moreover, the agreements made by the members of the G-20 may also help to decrease scams, like money laundering, terrorism financing and tax evasion. As the amount of these problems decrease, each country is able to gain more from their tax and fiscal, allowing them to support their citizens in better ways.

Going over E-Business: Its Improvement and Long run Prospective customers
Electronic digital commerce, often called e-trade, is a exchanging of provider and products exclusively online. E-business draws down an array of techniques together with provide sequence management, automated resources move, mobile commerce, via the internet purchase developing and files variety structure (Manzoor, Amir. E-commerce: a review of E-business Qin: Zheng. 2007), 107. So what is more, these technological know-how are confronted with daily variations, adjustments and complete creation. Because of this, this method of web based market is now particularly automated so because of this a developing need to take a closer inspection at it.These case studies address existing hazardrelated threats and the effects of climate change on Great Lakes communities. Incorporating geospatial data In such a essay, I take on to go over e-business enhancement as well as its upcoming prospects.
The timeline for the creation of e-trade kicks out of during 1971 when ARPANET technological innovations was utilized to prepare the deal of cannabis at Stanford Man-made Research laboratory. Some many years ahead of time, this technologies have handed from phase to phase with overlaps in technologies including Quantum (1983), Electric powered Shopping mall by CompuServe (1984), Net Only Car radio Stations The amazon website (1995) last but not least the e-commerce in virtually every on the net console. Pursuing whooping revenue by small businesses carrying out make trades by e-commerce, authoritative organisations in North America and lots of European countries have witnessed an expanding want to control the deal thru income taxes (Rajput, Wasim. E-Commerce units design and uses. Boston, Muscle size: Artech Apartment, 2000), 24. Therefore, there seems to be creation of Government Industry Commission colloquially abbreviated as FTC to observe and control electric powered trade routines. This regulation has been extremely noteworthy in evaluating internet business shows and making sure small companies are fantastic competitors on the world-wide economic conditions.
Current e-trade calls for from choosing content for immediate virtual usage for you to make purchases for customary solutions and merchandise. Actually, currently, we have seen a increase of meta products and services to accomplish other styles of e-business. This surge continues to be felt all over the world with special areas staying given amazing recipients. These kinds of worldwide fads in e-commerce have diversified. Throughout the year 2010, Great Britain possessed the largest niche for e-business when measured by sum of money devoted each capita. Czech Republic came out in the much closer next because zone which brought to you the leading participation to enterprises' total profit. The far east, Usa and many different BRIC nations around the world shadowed complement with gazillion e-commerce promotional relationships (Qin, Zheng. 2007. Overview of E-business. Berlin: Springer Berlin, 2000), 54. When investigating your immediate future prospective customers of e-trade, certain factors have to be thought to be. These include software programs programs which includes social media, electric powered tickets, on the net business packages, on the web bank, newsgroups, automated over the internet assistants and file automation in logistics and offer sequence. If these programs and a lot more are considerably improved and more sophisticated edition noticed, e-business is expected to succeed (Rajput, Wasim. E-Commerce solutions structure and programs. Boston, Mass: Artech Family home, 2000), 63. The reason being e-business application uses would be the only areas that support and get internet businesses and entrepreneurial adventures.
At the same time, economic experts have theorized that within a foreseeable future, e-trade may perhaps end in intensified rate competition. This could be because of the potency of the platform to maximize potential customer skill in acquiring specifics of services and products. However, analysis by various economic experts around the University or college of Chi town revealed that the future of shopping online will influence marketplace properties. The modification in buildings may happen into two spots who have the unique affect e-business, bookshops and travel and leisure specialists. Nevertheless, the capability of e-trade permitting communications within and through businesses is likely to counter these results (Manzoor, Amir. E-commerce: an introduction. Saarbru?cken: LAP Lambert Acad. Publ, 2010), 54. The effectiveness of e-trade has made it possible for geographic obstacles and demographics to go away, creating all companies and consumers opportunity merchants and clientele. As a result the way forward for e-business is simply not happiness, in fact, it happens to be really-appealing with single corporations for example e-bay and amazon . com site vocal singing to the glory.

PAYDAY! The boys and I met up with Jenna (way late) at the park to pick up some slippers I bought from her & then headed to Wal-Mart. We had lunch at Subway & then got some groceries and things for Vinnie's birthday.
Tim grilled chicken and did some yard work and I got a little bit of sewing for Vinnie done.

Today was a suck-tastic day. Vinnie is cutting a new tooth. We started out okay, got up & showered before Tim left for work. Then I had to start getting ready for my doctor's appointment, which sucked. Luke was being ornery and didn't want to do anything I asked him to do. We finally left the house about 5 minutes later than planned and without the iPad (the doctor's office has internet, so they could have watched Netflix).
At the doctor's office, Dr. G looked at the remaining redness & lump in my breast and decided that the mastitis is cured (but I do need to finish the antibiotic) and that the lump may take a LONG time to go away. She said some of it is probably scar tissue or milk collected around the biopsy site.
After the doctor's office we got Subway inside Wal-Mart, grabbed a few groceries and then got the boys' pictures done.
When we left there we ran to Lauren's house to drop off some blocks & then to the pharmacy while the boys napped in the car.
After we got home, Luke woke up and wouldn't go back to sleep. He managed to shatter a mirror and break a glass. Vinnie was miserable and I was emotionally and physically spent.
We had frozen pizzas for dinner & took a short walk before the rain came, before getting both boys to bed by 8:45.

As usual Frances Woolley has written a spot on piece about "language" and in this case mathematics and economics.
She states:
Bad notation makes a paper difficult to
follow. Papers that are hard to read and understand get rejected, or
receive lower grades.
But what makes for good notation?
First, symbols should be easy to remember....
(Second) ... avoid multiple subscripts or subscript/superscript combinations whenever possible...
(Third) ... One other rule is ... Generally speaking, greek letters are used for parameters of the
model ...
(Fourth) ... Once one has a model, one has to figure out what goes in between the
equations (hint: economics). Every symbol used in a paper needs to be
defined clearly the first time it mentioned. If the symbol has not been
used in a while, it is a good idea to give the reader a hint as to what
it means.
Now I have struggled with this for decades. Here is a variation of Woolley but written with my set of rules:
1. Write for your audience. If you are writing for pure mathematicians then you need all that stuff. If you are writing for the real world then just say what you mean and no more. You are NOT a pure mathematician and who cares if you have a Banach space. You never use that fact.
2. Follow Ockham:
a. Say as little as you have to to explain the concept. Do not add all sorts of stuff to show how "smart" you are.
b. Be a nominalist, namely there are no abstract Platonian constructs, only the reality of the moment.
3. Write equations so that they are obvious. If w is a variable that depends on x and t then write w(x,t). That's all, no more. If w is one of i=1,...,n elements then write a simple subscript. As Frances says choose a variable to be obvious. x is good for position, t for time, and then go from there.
4. Define it and repeat the definition as often as possible. Why? Because I may not have read the obscure definition hidden in the midst of paragraph 23.
5. Structure your presentation. Long paragraphs are tedious. Number or bullet your points. Highlight the fact that you are making. Unless your are a pure mathematician, assume it is not clear to the reader or that you can leave it as a simple exercise for the reader.
I have found that Economists try to pretend that they are pure mathematicians. I had taken a few pure mathematics courses at MIT and I can assure anyone that I am not nor will I ever be a pure mathematician. However I am a reasonably good engineer so writing equations are as an Ockhamist. I try to think of the reader, since I am using a language that should be clear and simple.

"Outsourcing" may sound scary to entrepreneurs. Reason being - surety of work quality, timely delivery, communication and security.
Delegating job functions to external agencies is what many companies do, for accessing skilled work force at a lesser cost. Every businessman's primary focus is making operations work in a way that they can provide a better, on time solution for the client/ customer's requirements . Being an entrepreneur you have to focus on many things at an operational level. Hiring a development team for every project increases overheads.
So the best solution is to outsource the project.
We have worked on many projects for providing services like website development, laravel development, game development, web application development, unity2D or unity3D development and much more.
Out of curiosity, I asked my clients the reasons "Why they choose to outsource?" Almost all of them could trust outsourcing because of the following reasons:
1. Cost Effective
Outsourcing is cost-effective because, if you hire developers and designers and make an in-house team, you will have to pay them every month irrespective of the amount of work. You will have to bear infrastructure cost and other resource costs. Again, team building involves a lot of time. On the other hand, if you outsource the project you need to pay only for hours that are consumed. All the other things are taken care of by agencies/individuals.
According to a recent survey conducted by London School of Economics (LSE), almost 70% of the firms choose outsourcing just to reduce the cost.
2. Skilled Resources
If you think of executing your project in-house, initially, you won't be aware of how many and what skilled developers you need. Getting good and experienced developers is another challenge in today's time. To train freshers and getting things done from them requires lot of time and energy.
While on the other hand if you outsource the work, you don't have to worry about the training & recruitment expenses. You only have to make sure that the company/agency you have hired is capable enough to do it. Find a team who is into the field for quite sometime, capable of understanding and communicating well with you; energetic and enthusiastic about work and is capable of implementing changes as per your need without being slow and easy about things.
3. Saves Time
When you outsource you don't have to get involved at operational level. Explain the requirement, communicate changes and just monitor if the work is being done.
4. Faster & Better services
Good service & faster development is an obvious outcome , as the company to whom you have outsourced better understands different levels of execution of a particular project in hand and has skilled developers at work. What more can one ask for?
5. Focus on core business competencies
Once you outsource the work, maximum burden of developing a software gets shared - recruitment process, training, team building, infrastructure allocation etc. You can focus on your own core business and operational activities only.
Are you still holding back from outsourcing? Don't waste time; just go ahead , find the right people and be sorted. In next write up , I will guide you on outsourcing tips which will help you to select the right team for your work.

Spray each of the chrome rims with the water hose. Apply a light mist of water to rinse them thoroughlly. This helps loosen the dirt and debris on the rims before you clean them.
Step 3
Fill a bucket 3/4 full with cool water. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of mild dishwashing soap to the water. Mix the water with your hand to achieve a sudsy consistency. Saturate the washcloth or sponge by dropping it in the bucket of soapy water.
Step 4
Rub the washcloth across the chrome rim to remove the bulk of the dirt, road debris and brake dust. Apply gentle pressure as you move the washcloth back and forth against the surface of your rim. Rubbing the chrome too hard or intensely can actually remove some of the chrome from rims.
Step 5
Rinse the chrome rim with the water hose to inspect the rim for remaining dirt, dust and debris. Pay close attention to the crevices of the chrome rim. Work the washcloth or sponge into the crevices of the rim to remove any remaining dirt or brake dust.
Step 6
Repeat the same process for each of the chrome rims. After you rinse the clean chrome rims with the water hose, let them air dry.

The efforts of the Lakota People' Law Project and other brave warriors fighting a racist and classist system were highlighted in a recent article by Laura Rena Murray for Aljazeera America.
The article details the travails of several Native American families ripped asunder by an intolerant system.
One of the victims, Lois Thunder, watched as her grandchildren were removed from their home after being neglected by parents struggling through the ravages of substance abuse issues. Thunder understood the necessity to intervene in the difficult situation, but immediately began to fight to have the children placed with her — to no avail.
Instead of being placed with Thunder or the tribe as mandated by the Indian Child Welfare Act, the children were placed in non-Native homes, an all too familiar story in South Dakota.
Laura Rena Murray not only details the tragedy of individual families but demonstrates the systemic nature of the persistent injustices, interviewing Lakota People' Law Project Attorney Chase Iron Eyes and other leaders in the Native communities who have begun to fight back against a cruel and unflinching system.
Please read the story which can be found here.
The Lakota People's Law Project will continue to work diligently to ensure this racist practice that undermines the cultural heritage of Native peoples ceases. We need the help of media outlets such as Aljazeera to disseminate the message about this unfortunate circumstance.
Reporters like Laura Rena Murray are instrumental in helping the Lakota people receive a reprieve from prolonged injustice.

Kasol tourism has boosted at an exponential rate in the past few years leaving behind number of questions. Some believe its all due to the nature and some believe the other left aspects are the reasons. Drug consumption in Parvati valley is one of the major factor which has forced High court to deliver such orders.
The High court directed The Deputy Commissioner of Kullu to snap off the power and water connections from the hotel which were illegally operating in Kasol without the permission of Tourism department.
In this attempt nearly 44 out 64 hotels running in Kasol were shut down. The hotels were not only sealed but by the orders of High court water as well as electricity connections were cut down.
Read: why you should not visit Kasol
The court passed these directions after perusing the report filed by the Joint Inspection Committee. Its report says out of 60 hotels in Kasol, 44 are neither having permission from the Tourism Department, nor do they have any consent to operate in terms of the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981. – Tribune
What's The Issue
The main concern of High court is the illegal trade and use of drugs and the second main concern is the encroachment of local people on the forest land for construction of illegal camping site. These things not only harm nature but also is major factor for pollution in Kasol.
The Court had directed the Superintendent of Police, Kullu, as well as Zonal Director, Narcotics Control Bureau, Chandigarh, on October 25 to constitute a Joint Task Force to raid all restaurants, hotels and dhabas in and around Kasol and Malana to stop illegal activities. The force was also directed to visit Malana village and ensure complete eradication of contraband and take action against people indulging in illegal trade of contraband's.
The only thing which I can analyse is that if these things will not stop soon. Kasol will surely become the lost land and no one will remember it's name. So I believe it's high time to take this matter as a major topic of concern so that we can enjoy the beauty or Parvati Valley and Kasol forever.

by LSGTPA
The need for a better traveling surface in Texas, prompted the construction of the Central National Road in 1844. The route provided for traffic from the Red River to the Trinity River, and brought settlers to the Hunt County area and to Greenville. By 1898, the first Hunt County Fair had been organized and in 1967 relocated to its current home near the site of the historic Majors Army Airfield. The need for a good tractor pulling surface in Texas, prompted the partnership of the Lone Star Garden Tractor Pullers Association with the Hunt County Fair in 2002, and has resulted in a cooperative effort that provides for a great show each year, held in conjunction with the Hunt County Fair. The 2014 Hunt County Fair tractor pull, was certainly one for the books, as the only double header on the LSGTPA schedule was certainly entertaining !
Great weather rewarded the fairs decision on an earlier start for 2014, and provided for awesome conditions for opening weekend. Bailey Melvin opened the LSGTPA show, with an outstanding performance of our National Anthem. The Youth Class took center stage during the Friday night opener, as the 'Chevy Hometown Kids' television crew were onhand to film and conduct interviews during the competition. The show, starring host Emily Reppert, highlights youth sporting events and airs on Fox Sports Southwest. Reppert and crew, covered the activities of the Youth Class competitors during the evening event.
Leading the pack, was the 'Rust-eze' entry of Korben Colley-Greer, scoring the win. Jared Stephan drove his 'Iron Head' tractor to the runnerup spot, while Lane Duncan piloted the 'Texas T-Rex' to the third place. Kody Langham placed his Bonham Service Center tractor in fourth, and Mason Hovind pulled to a top five finish aboard the 'Yes Deere' tractor, during the Youth Class prime time performance.

The Stock Class was won by Shawn Aufdenkamp, followed by Kolby Langham in the runnerup position. Claude Lewis turned in a top three performance, while Aidan Hovind place the 'Yes Deere' tractor in the fourth position. In Stock Diesel, Steve Hovind used a Full Pull to record the win, over Ken Langham Jr, and Kieth Pope. Big Stock tractors were paced by Shawn Aufdenkamp, in a very close battle. Alex Jesko scored the runnerup aboard his 'Overtime' entry and Jerry Toland placed the 'Triple Deuce' tractor in the top three. Kolby Langham rounded out the field, aboard the 'Texas Thunder' machine.
Stock Altered fans witnessed another close battle, as Alex Jesko emerged with the victory aboard 'Outlaw'. John Aufdenkamp placed second and Ken Langham Sr. scored a top three finish. Michael Mayberry placed the 'Pulling for Peanuts' tractor in the fourth spot. In the Motorcycle Class, Paul Smith rode his 'Texan' tractor to the victory. Steve Pierce piloted his 'Buzzards Roost' entry to the second place spot, while Todd Hickerson recorded a top three finish. In the Mini Rod Class, the competitors were holding nothing back, as the class recorded four Full Pulls before David Houchen emerged as the winner aboard 'Back In The Day'. Colby Crowe powered his 'Weekend Warrior' machine to the runnerup, and Jerry Toland placed 'Shinin Time' in the top three. Sara Moody rolled coal to the fourth place spot, aboard her turbocharged diesel entry, and Tommy Kimmons placed his tractor in the top five.
The Super Rod tractors closed Friday nights show, with a Ken Langham Sr. victory. John Kiemele pulled to second, aboard the 'Dodge This' entry, followed by Donny Mayo aboard 'Blackfoot Squaw' and Randell Moody aboard 'Ridge Runner'
During Saturday night action, in the Youth Class, Jared Stephan placed his 'Iron Head' entry in the lead. Mason Hovind pulled to the runnerup aboard 'Yes Deere', and Korben Colley-Greer placed 'Rust-eze' in third. Lane Duncan piloted his 'Texas T-Rex' to the fourth place position, and Kody Langham pulled to a top five finish. In Stock, Aidan Hovind pulled to victory with Claude Lewis scoring second. Kolby Langham rode to a third place finish ahead of Aidan Hovind in fourth. Stock Diesel action, produced a win for Ken Langham, Jr. and a runnerup for Steve Hovind. Local favorite Keith Pope finished in third. In Big Stock, Kolby Langham pulled out the win, just ahead of Alex Jesko and the 'Overtime' tractor. Jerry Toland placed the 'Triple Deuce' in third, just ahead of Shawn Aufdenkamp. Stock Altered pilots witnessed a repeat win by Alex Jesko aboard the 'Outlaw' tractor, with Ken Langham Sr. scoring the runnerup. John Aufdenkamp pulled to the third position, with Michael Mayberry and the 'Pulling for Peanuts' entry placing fourth.
The Motorcycle class action, sorted out with Steve Pierce and 'Buzzards Roost' scoring the win. Todd Hickerson pulled to a runnerup, and Paul Smith pulled to third aboard his 'Texan' tractor. Paul Smith would return to pull in the Outlaw Class, and used a Full Pull to score the win aboard the 'Texan'. Todd Hickerson also pulled double duty, scoring the runnerup in the Outlaw Class. John Aufdenkamp placed his 'Three of a Kind' entry in third.
While the Youth Class stole the show on Friday night, Saturday night may well be designated the Colby Crowe show. Crowe competes in the Mini Rod class with his 'Weekend Warrior' entry. His girlfriend, Sarah Moody, also competes in the class with her turbocharged diesel '99% Moody' machine. On this night, Crowe pulled first, scoring a 179.30 foot pull. Crowe exited the top end of the track and awaited Moody, as is normal for the pair, often assisting each other. This time, however, Crowe had special plans. As Moody began her pull, Crowe produced a small box, took a knee on the finish line, and awaited Moody. Moody scored a 173.43 foot pull, before realizing Crowe and his proposal activities on the track. The packed stands went wild with cheers and even a few tears, as Sarah accepted Colby's ring in front of the crowd. The pair then left together to prepare their tractors for the next round, and prepare their plans for the next chapter of their lives. We certainly wish them well !
|She said yes ! Sarah Moody accepts a proposal from Colby Crowe, as the Hunt Count Fair crowd cheers !
Jerry Toland would go on to win the Mini Rod Class, aboard 'Shinin Time', with Tommy Kimmons scoring the runnerup postion. The newly engaged Colby Crowe 'Weekend Warrior' and Sarah Moody '99% Moody' combo would finish third and fourth. David Houchen took the 'Back In The Day' tractor to a top five finish. The Super Rod Class tractors would close the show, with Ken Langham Sr. pulling to a win over John Kiemele and the 'Dodge This' machine. Randell Moody and 'Ridge Runner' placed third, with Donny Mayo and the 'Blackfoot Squaw' tractor pulling to fourth.
The teams will ready for the next pull on Saturday May 3rd, at the newly constructed Powder Creek Park Pulling Track in Bonham.. The event will be held in conjunction with the Bonham Heritage Day celebration, and is scheduled for a 3pm start.

text: Gastón Azcárrag, the former owner of Mexico's oldest airline has reportedly requested asylum in the US after being issued with an arrest warrant for suspected money laundering. Azcárrag is wanted in connection with the collapse of Mexicana in 2010 after the airline was grounded due to its failure to meet hundreds of millions of dollars in liabilities. Mexico's attorney general's office reportedly issued an arrest warrant for Azcárrag earlier this year, though it is unclear exactly when. The attorney general office does not comment on arrest warrants, the office said. Originally founded in 1921, several attempts have been made to relaunch Mexicana since it officially ceased operations in August 2010, however none have been successful. Last month, a Mexican court declared the airline bankrupt and ordered the liquidation of its assets. The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has yet to confirm or deny the asylum application.

Canada's mainstream media missed their chance to take a critical look at the state of the economy last week, preferring instead to dish out a heaping helping of pablum. The Globe and Mail and the Canadian Press news agency, for example, focused on the reassuring words of Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney and federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty, who testified Friday before a rare summer sitting of the House of Commons finance committee.
Their reporting gave the misleading impression that Canadians aren't affected too much by the perilous state of the global economy because, in spite of its troubles, our economy is performing OK. That may be true for senior politicians, bankers and other high-flying business execs, but not for most Canadians.
Dismal long-term trends
The real truth is that for the last 40 years, our economic system has been buffeted by one crisis after another, including deep recessions, slowing growth rates and market meltdowns. Average unemployment rates have stayed persistently high, while average real wages have remained stagnant in spite of significant productivity gains and rising corporate profits.
Meanwhile, hard-pressed Canadian households have taken on mountains of debt, boosting the country's overall rate of private indebtedness to record levels. The parliamentary pledge to wipe out child poverty by the year 2000 has long been forgotten. Welfare rates are well below poverty lines, while Canada's food banks are doing a roaring business.
These are only a few of the chronic economic problems that, in one way or another, affect most of us.
Yet cheered on by the mainstream media, governments have responded by cutting spending and making balanced budgets their number one priority. Moreover, they've done little to deal with our myriad environmental problems, including the impending disaster of climate change. Instead of investing in mass transit, for example, they've preferred to subsidize the private automobile. Instead of encouraging local farming, they've supported an agribusiness food system that consumes at least 10 times more energy than it produces.
True, mainstream media have, at times, reported on these issues. But when it comes to focusing on the state of the economy, they routinely quote senior politicians and bankers who assure us that although things aren't all that great, we'll somehow muddle through.
Craig Wong's Canadian Press dispatch, for example, led off by dropping a real clanger: "The global economic upheaval is slowing growth in Canada, but Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney doesn't believe the country faces the prospect of its largest trading partner falling into recession." Unless Wong is blessed with mind-reading skills, he has no way of knowing what Carney really believes regarding the outlook for the U.S. economy. But judging by what Carney actually said, the Bank of Canada governor was clearly trying to calm Canadians' justifiable fears of further economic turmoil.
The Globe's Jeremy Torobin and Bill Curry reported that even if Canada does experience another recession, Flaherty and Carney have "enviable room to manoeuvre compared with other advanced economies." Translation: Don't worry, be happy!
For informed analysis of Flaherty and Carney's soothing comments, Canadian Press and the Globe turned, as usual, to economists at the big financial institutions—the Royal Bank and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. in the case of the Globe, while CP consulted CIBC World Markets.
It's as though only senior politicians, bankers and business types are qualified to speak in stories such as this—stories which actually conceal how poorly Canada's economic system works for the rest of us.

Latest News
All points bulletin out for Panthers offense
Having made it through the opening weekend of the NFL regular season, let's take a knee to evaluate what we've learned.
The NFL is still the most popular kid in school.
NFL games were the most watched shows of the week in all 30 NFL markets. Evidently, they don't watch much television in Cleveland.
The Green Bay Packers are in last place in the NFC North. Robert Griffin III is a star. Peyton Manning likes tapenade.
Official Ed Hochuli was missed. So was the Panthers' offense.
But that's so last week.
Before Notre Dame changes its mind, let's look at Week 2:
NEW ORLEANS at CAROLINA: Not everyone is saying this is a must win for the Panthers but almost everybody's thinking it Panthers 29, Saints 24.
TAMPA BAY at NEW YORK GIANTS: What's more difficult to imagine, the Bucs at 2-0 or the Giants at 0-2? Here's your answer: Giants 28, Bucs 14.
OAKLAND at MIAMI: Unless this is 1974, I'm not interested. And if this is 1974, I need to wear better clothes this time around. Raiders 27, Dolphins 21.
HOUSTON at JACKSONVILLE: The who cares game of the week. Texans 41, Jags 13.
CLEVELAND at CINCINNATI: In his first regular-season game as an NFL quarterback, Browns rookie Brandon Weedon had a passer rating of 5.1. In a coincidental move, Apple this week unveiled the new iPhone 5.
Owners who buy this new must-have phone will be able to watch Weedon's highlights on their devices – as soon as he has some. Bengals 27, Browns 17.
KANSAS CITY at BUFFALO: I got a phone call this week from a reader who asks that I provide more detailed analysis of each game rather than make occasionally snarky comments. He apparently confused me with Ron Jaworski. I also assume the caller wasn't referring to games like this one. Bills 17, Chiefs 16.
BALTIMORE at PHILADELPHIA: Things you never thought you'd say: Right now, the Ravens may be the second-best professional team in Baltimore behind the Orioles. Ravens 23, Eagles 14.
ARIZONA at NEW ENGLAND: After quarterback Tom Brady took a shot to the nose that drew blood Sunday at Tennessee, teammate Wes Welker wasn't concerned. "He's probably the toughest metrosexual I've come across," Welker said. Patriots 35, Cardinals 16.
MINNESOTA at INDIANAPOLIS: Andrew Luck has his RG III moment. Colts 34, Vikings 17.
WASHINGTON at ST. LOUIS: Robert Griffin III set an NFL record Sunday by needing just one regular-season game to be universally known by his nickname – RG III. New Rams coach Jeff Fisher needs just two games to bring RG III back to reality. Rams 31, Redskins 20.
DALLAS at SEATTLE: The NFL is more fun when the Cowboys are winning even if their fans can be more annoying than the strange dude on the NFL Network commercials. Grin and/or bear it. Cowboys 31, Seahawks 21.
NEW YORK JETS at PITTSBURGH: Say what you will about him but the Jets are undefeated in the regular season since Tim Tebow arrived. Jets 24, Steelers 16.
TENNESSEE at SAN DIEGO: The NFL is continuing to use replacement refs this weekend. However, these are the real Tennessee Titans. Chargers 32, Titans 24.
DETROIT at SAN FRANCISCO: The 49ers made their point in Lambeau Field on Sunday. 49ers 28, Lions 17.
DENVER at ATLANTA: The Peyton Manning played on Sunday night this week. He will play on Monday night next week. At this rate, he'll log more prime time TV than Anderson Cooper. Falcons 27, Broncos 20.
Last week: 8-7

Twelve maps bundled together by a single rubber band will be my guide to the west coast. The first map covers just over 350 miles from Yorktown to Christiansburg, VA. Besides following the route, everything's up in the air.
On the first day I will be riding right through the heart of Colonial Williamsburg. Its not my first time visiting so I'll probably skip out on the tour, making time for a ride around the College of William & Mary, which I have not had the chance to see.
Along the way I plan to pass through the University of Virginia which is located in Charlottesville. The university is in the same city as the former home to U.S. Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe. Blacksburg is allegedly six miles off the route; weather permitting I'll be checking out Virginia Tech.
Outside of getting a small taste of the universities of Virginia and maybe getting a peak at Monticello if I'm feeling spry, I expect the first map to be uneventful. The elevation changes are pretty tame in the first half of the map. As the foothills become mountains in the second map I'm sure the ride will become punishing.
