IDC Goals and Focus Areas
The mission of the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University is to provide the very best residential liberal arts education in the Catholic university tradition. These two institutions are called to foster integrated learning and exceptional leadership for change and wisdom for a lifetime.
The Catholic identity of these schools is more than just a matter of religious sponsorship or the personal faith of some members of the intellectual community, important as these are. It is a home for thoroughgoing intellectual and personal engagement with the ideas and traditions of Catholic culture and thought. It is also and equally an identity that commits itself to and practices Benedictine hospitality and an ecumenical welcome extending to all who enter the intellectual community as persons of principle and seekers of truth. In practicing this central Benedictine value, these two institutions seek to build authentic communities for all who come here to work and learn.
In accordance with this overall mission, the Intercultural Council has adopted the following challenges that will guide its work:
1. To develop shared understandings and promote actions that advance intercultural competence.
2. To foster a genuinely inclusive intercultural community.
3. To promote active learning toward intercultural competence.
4. To improve recruitment and retention of a diverse educational community (students, workforce, and management).
These challenges will begin to be addressed in conversation with various members of the CSB/SJU community in the coming months. This process of critical conversation and action on behalf of intercultural competence will continue for years to come. By engaging numerous aspects of institutional life, the ICC hopes to invite and maximize participation in this initiative. The ICC unanimously believes that intercultural competence is essential to maintaining and augmenting excellence at these two institutions.
The committee met for an all day planning retreat. At the end of the day its members agreed to begin to address the challenges listed above in conversation with members from the following areas:
1. Academic Affairs
2. Student Development
3. Human Resources
4. Food Service

This is the 3rd year of the art prize, which offers young artists the opportunity to enjoy a solo exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery and produce a publication.
Sophie has chosen to create a film in Rhyl, North Wales, filming in a series of locations including the Sun Centre, caravan sites, amusement arcades and some of the older buildings in the seaside town. Local residents and holiday makers from across generations play the actors in a film which sets out to explore the nostalgic aura of a traditional seaside town, how we romanticise the past and how that contrasts with actual experience.

Planning ahead?
Do you plan ahead what cigars you are going to smoke like I do? Right now I am deciding what cigars I will smoke this weekend, and what cigars I will take fishing on Sunday night. Or, do you just grab and go as the mood suits you? I'm just curious if I am OCD or normal…
"A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes other people sick."- Mary Wilson Little
Trying the Bahia Blu. Good taste but hardest draw ever. Like siphoning gas. :-/
On the porch on a cloudy Sunday afternoon enjoying a Black Pearl Morado. Peppery start but smoothed out into a complex, full bodied smoke.
I'm still alive
Just in case you are one of the nine poor people who chose to follow my blog, I thought I would let you know I am still alive. I will be reviving the blog soon. I have smoked so many cigars since my last review, I wouldn't know where to begin. I'm loving everything from Alec Bradley, especially the Tempus and the Maxx. Graycliff got my attention with the 1666, a solid smoke for the price. Gurkha, a former favorite, has taken a downhill slide in my book. The entire Empire series sucked, and so did the Assassin and Evil. Torano has caught my eye and I can't wait to smoke some more from them, and Augusto Reyes too.
I am still compiling material for an article on the fermentation process, but it is quite complicated, and too lengthy so far. Still trying to get internet at the bunker. If that comes, you will get sick of me.
Gotta smoke 'em all,
What cigar goes with pneumonia? I'm thinking about a Deisel Unlimited or a Graycliff 1666. Any suggestions?

Globally, hundreds of cheese companies participated, sending more than 2,500 cheeses to Birmingham, England, where they were judged by a field of more than 200 expert tasters from around the world.
Even more impressive was how the United States fared in the advanced judging rounds: American cheese makers sent four cheeses to the final round of 16. Limited Edition Cognac BellaVitano, from Sartori Foods, Plymouth, Wis., took third place overall from the final evaluation, also earning it a trophy for the "Best U.S. Cow's Milk Cheese," an award sponsored by the U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC).
"This past 10 years has witnessed a phenomenal rise in U.S. cheeses on the world stage," says Bob Farrand, award chairman of the competition, which is organized by The Guild of Fine Food. "To come third in the world is a tremendous achievement and the volume of awards amassed this year is a fitting testimony to a generation of U.S. cheese makers at the very top of their game."
USDEC encourages stateside participation by sponsoring the "Best U.S. Cow's Milk Cheese" trophy each year. USDEC involvement with the World Cheese Awards, supported by U.S. dairy producers through their checkoff program, along with other USDEC market development programs and activities, help drive global demand for U.S. cheese and other dairy products by enhancing the quality image of U.S. supply in overseas markets.
"When U.S. cheeses shine in a competition like this on a global stage, it reflects on the quality of all U.S. dairy products," says Angélique Hollister, director of cheese and manufactured products, USDEC. "Sartori's Cognac BellaVitano is a perfect example of how U.S. cheese makers can stand toe to toe with the traditions of European cheese makers and add something unique to those cheese traditions."

This morning I wrapped up the fourth out of five different gingerbread house decorating parties I'll be throwing this Christmas season. This one was for my youngest daughter's preschool. And for the first time, I had a particular challenge to make this party a possibility: one of Niamh's young classmates has some serious food allergies, including wheat. It was time to develop a wheat-free, gluten-free version of my gingerbread house recipe!
The little girl in question could eat egg whites, but not yolks, so this recipe was developed with that in mind.
Gluten Free Gingerbread Recipe
In a heavy duty, stand mixer, combine the shortening and the sugars. Add egg whites, and beat. Add salt, molasses, soda, ginger, and cinnamon, and combine. Add flours and mix until combined. The dough should be stiff and not sticky to the touch. If the dough feels a little too soft and sticky, add a little more rice or tapioca flour until your dough is firm but pliable, and ready to roll.
Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes. For tips on how to shape the gingerbread house, check out the gingerbread tutorial I wrote for Frog Prince Paperie.
When the pieces come out of the oven, they will be very tender and crumbly. Let cool completely on the baking sheet before trying to move them. Though they may be very delicate just out of the oven, they crisp up beautifully when cool, making a crisp, perfect, gluten-free gingerbread house.
I'm so glad this recipe adaptation worked so well! It was my first foray into gluten-free baking. It meant so much to me that I could include the whole class in our family tradition.
Theme by Danetsoft and Danang Probo Sayekti inspired by Maksimer

From WENN.com
Big Apple Mayor Michael Bloomberg has declared the route of the 26.2-mile (42-kilometer) run safe following the storms which lashed the city on Monday (29Oct12).
At a news conference on Wednesday (31Oct12) Bloomberg said the race was ""an important part"" of the city's economy and he insisted that the 50 Americans who died as a result of former Hurricane Sandy would want the event to go on.
The Mayor said, ""There are tens of thousands of people who come from around the world here to run. We've decided that the marathon will go on.""
The marathon was expected to attract over 45,000 runners this year, including over 20,000 international participants.

Sirius short interest is on the rise
Shares of the satellite radio company are among the most overvalued in history.
Short interest in the satellite broadcasting service was 285.8 million as of Feb. 29, up about 5% from the previous week. This represents a reversal from the Feb. 15 data, which showed short interest dropping more than 10% from the week before to 273 million -- its lowest level in about three months.
The earlier decline was unusual and got tongues wagging. Was it a reaction to rumors that Liberty Media (LMCA), which in 2009 saved Sirius from bankruptcy, would acquire an 80% stake in the company? I don't know why short interest in Sirius has rebounded -- or if this increase is part of a trend. Sirius, one of the most-shorted stocks in history, is tough to read.
Shares of the corporate home of Howard Stern are up nearly 26% despite numerous commentaries about how the stock is overvalued and is a "great short." Sirius trades at a price-to-earnings multiple of 33.97, which is below its five-year high of 241.85, but nonetheless high. Wall Street analysts expect the company to earn a tiny profit of 2 cents a share on revenue of $802.71 million. The company's long-term debt level of $2.86 billion, though down by more than $200 million, is still high. Wall Street analysts have a one-year price target of $2.52, which is about where it trades now. The company does not have many things going for it.
Sirius forecast the addition of 1.3 million net subscribers in 2012. This was less than analysts had forecast, but given the expected increase in auto sales, it seems like a low-ball figure. Last year, Sirius XM added 1.7 million subscribers, the biggest increase since the merger of Sirius and XM. Revenue topped a record $3 billion, and free cash flow practically doubled to $416 million. The company even managed to reduce programming costs.
Dark clouds, though, continue to hover around Sirius XM about everything from the Stern lawsuit over bonus payments to the significant expenses it expects to incur in about five years to replace its network of satellites. CEO Mel Karmazin has managed to keep Sirius XM going when many people had written the company's obituary.
This is not a stock for the faint of heart. It bounces around like a pinball game. Unfortunately, no one has any idea how long the stock will stay in play.

WASHINGTON -- Bradley Beal scored 26 points, and the Washington Wizards moved a step closer to claiming the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference on Saturday night with a 104-91 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, whose loss guaranteed they will finish with at least a tie for the worst record in the NBA.
John Wall added 15 points and eight assists for the Wizards, who also clinched the franchise's first winning record since 2008 -- which was also the last time they made the playoffs.
Washington leads the seventh-place Charlotte Bobcats, who beat the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday, by one game with two to play. The Bobcats hold the tiebreaker if Washington and Charlotte finish tied. Both teams are hoping to finish higher than seventh in order to avoid a first-round series against Miami or Indiana.
Khris Middleton and Ramon Sessions scored 20 points apiece to lead the Bucks, who trail the 76ers by two games with two to play at the bottom of the league.
The Bucks also failed in their latest chance to have their first winning streak of the season. They had won Friday night after losing six in a row.
Injuries and a suspension to Larry Sanders had already thinned Larry Drew's bench, and on Saturday the Bucks coach was down to a rotation of eight players after Brandon Knight was a late scratch with a sore right hip.
The Wizards, meanwhile, played without Nene, who was resting on a back half of a back-to-back, having recently returned from sprained left knee. His fill-in, Trevor Booker, had another solid game, scoring 11 points on 5-for-7 shooting.
Beal has been streaky of late, both good and bad. He was 12 for 22 from the field Saturday night, but just 2 for 7 from 3-point range. He has made only five of 28 3-pointers in his last five games.
Trevor Ariza, whose shot has suffered while he battled the flu for more than a week, looked a bit more refreshed as he went 5 for 7 from the field and scored 13 points for Washington. Marcin Gortat added 13 points and 13 rebounds.
The Bucks and Wizards had gone to overtime in two of their three previous meetings this season, and this one stayed tight into the third quarter. Milwaukee stayed close by taking advantage of the offensive boards, while Washington had all the space in the world to work the baseline and drive to the paint.
The Wizards never trailed in the first half, but their lead never reached double digits. The Bucks took their only lead of the game on Zaza Pachulia's layup early in the third quarter, but a three-point play from Booker, a dunk from Gortat and a 3-pointer from Martell Webster -- along with six Milwaukee turnovers in eight minutes -- help put Washington ahead 87-74 headed into the fourth.
NOTES: The Bucks shot exactly 50 per cent (10 for 20, 8 for 16, 8 for 16) in each of the first three quarters. ... The Wizards made 8 of 22 3-pointers, a modest improvement after going just 6 for 50 from in their previous three games. ... The Wizards signed 10-year-old Amaris Jackson to a one-day contract in partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Amaris, who is to have surgery to remove a tumour in her lungs, was introduced with the starting lineup.

As a TEDx organizers I wish there were this feature on ted.com/tedx. Please propose a suggestion or an idea around future functionality.
We are working on a road map for future functionally on ted.com/tedx. We would like input from the community of TEDx organizers. What would you like to be able to do on ted.com/tedx?

Jun 20 2012: Aside from the fact that the current tedx pages are already very good and quite complete in information
Some improvements ideas
- I think the spatial mapping can improve (auto zoom after entering a search term, option to get it on bigger screen)
- Linking the talks to the location of the event (after they appear online)
- +1 to Amy's ideas (city 2.0 integration)
- The link to the TEDx pages on the main site is quite small. I don't think most TEDx visitors come to these pages, but are most often reached through the TEDx Websites. I don't know how to improve connections between the two without increasing the workload of the webmasters... I think the same goes for the TEDx Blog
- As TEDx organisers and teams are getting to know each other better and better (through the various events and personal contacts and meetups), I still think that eshtablishing a network between the different TEDx events might be a nice feature (My idea was that each TEDx connects with the 6 nearest TEDx events around them, with 6 TEDx events in the same continent, and 6 TEDx events worldwide). Visualizing these connections might be a neat feature.
Jul 3 2012: Hi Christophe!
Your search suggestions are a bit prophetic! Have you seen the new and improved TEDx event search? http://www.ted.com/tedx/events
It includes the auto zoom when you search and also, when viewing past events, if the organizer has filled out their event page after the event, there are links directly to the talks (video icon for talks, camera icon for flickr images) Check it out: http://www.ted.com/tedx/events?when=past

What are the most pressing workforce issues at your agency? MSPB wants to know
Friday - 3/21/2014, 12:19pm EDT
What are the most pressing federal workforce issues facing your agency?
The Merit Systems Protection Board — the watchdog agency responsible for ensuring fair federal workplace policies — wants to know.
MSPB, which in addition to investigating allegations of prohibited personnel practices also studies management best practices, is updating its research agenda and wants your help.
The agency says it wants to hear from federal employees, supervisors, unions and other groups on the issues they would like to see MSPB address in its research.
To share a research idea with MSPB, email email@example.com
— Or contact John Ford at (202) 254-4499
Recent MSPB reports have uncovered overreliance by agency hiring managers on cursory assessments of applicants' training and experience, increasing numbers of federal employees who feel favoritism is a problem at their agencies and dramatic increases in whisteblower retaliation.
To share a research idea, email MSPB at email@example.com or contact John Ford at (202) 254-4499.
MSPB, through its Office of Policy and Evaluation, conducts research on federal workforce policies.
However, that part of the agency's mission has been hampered over the last year or so because of the steep sequestration-related budget cuts at the agency.
Budget cuts and resource constraints limited the number of reports the agency was able to produce last year and hindered efforts to launch a Web-based survey platform to conduct workforce studies, according to MSPB's annual performance report released earlier this year.
When thousands of employees across the federal government were furloughed last year thanks to those same budget cuts, more than 32,000 employees filed appeals with MSPB, a caseload that has stretched the agency "beyond capacity," Chairman Susan Tsui Grundmann told Federal News Radio recently.

Fizzle heads to Bali
Fizzle heads to Bali
Jake Fissenden "Fizzle Dizzle" headed to Bali recently, check out his blog for pic's and up coming clip from the trip.
It was probably built by some local shepar, who does a small volume of business, hence no website and no big name recognition. He may even be out of the trade, so you might be out of luck with another Wet dancer. So, why no not measure it, photograph it and do your best to evaluate the materials (epoxy or pe, 4 oz, 60z cloth, FCS fins, Future fins, glassed in fins etc). And the bring all of the data home and find a good local shepar to duplicate it for you.

OUCH!!! Video of some Guy Horsing around and getting Horsekicked.
You used to see old western movies where the stunt cowboys did the leap frog into the saddle and made a speedy get away. However, you better have a well trained horse or pony, that is comfortable and well tempered, and a better vertical than Joe-Bob here in the video. The slow motion shows you why, you're always told to walk right up next to the hind end of a horse if you "have" to walk behind one. The horse can't get full extension and catch you with the full momentum and force of their powerful back legs if you're next to their rump like this guy in the video, hence he's able to walk away with some bruises and a youtube video as evidence of his brainless behavior…rather than brain damage or worse had this horse caught him full on.

MILWAUKEE, WI (LEARFIELD-WSAU) Brewers' left-fielder Ryan Braun is expected to start his first game in a month tonight. Braun was activated from the disabled list yesterday, and third baseman Aramis Ramirez took his place on the D-L.
Braun's been out with nerve damage between his right thumb and index finger, which made it harder to get a good grip on the bat. He also bruised the thumb, and he said it probably won't be 100-percent for the rest of the year. Braun will be eased back into the lineup. He's expected to play part of tonight's game, and then take tomorrow off.
Ramirez has been sore ever since he sprained his left knee twice while sliding into bases in March and April – and he hurt himself again on a diving catch at third base on Saturday night against the Mets. Manager Ron Roenicke said Ramirez has developed patella tendinitis in the knee. Because of next week's All-Star break, Ramirez won't miss as many games as he otherwise would have while on the 15-day D-L.

|Easy Breather by Herbalogic
Just before the season begins, most allergists have suggested I start just before the pollen counts spike in November. I begin taking two things daily: Zyrtec (or it's generic over-the-counter equivalent) and my new love -Herbalogic's Easy Breather. Herbalogic was recommended to me by my local Whole Foods store. It's worked wonders so far!
As the cedar season hits full swing, I begin adding to my aresenal to manage any flair ups. For my nose, I use CVS's maximum strength nasal spray for severe congestion. I use it about two to three times per day. For my eyes, I rely on Visine-A eye allergy reflief drops. I'll use these drops whenever my eyes begin to itch. Right now, I am putting them in each morning and just before I go to bed at night.
And, this year, I have added a nettipot to my routinue. I think it's done wonders for my allergies. I use a nettipot each morning. It's surprising how much it clears me up.
Other tips I follow:
- If it is windy outside, I try to avoid spending long periods of time in the wind.
- If I have spent a lot of time outside, I will take a shower when I come inside and definitely before I go to bed. Taking a shower before you go to bed helps remove the cedar pollen and other allergens from your sheets. Who wants to rub their face in pollen all night?!
- I don't ever open my windows when the cedar count is high.
- I try to wash my hands more frequently to avoid spreading pollen to my eyes when I touch them with my hands.
My Routine:
- Morning: nettipot, eye drops, nasal spray, easy breather
- Mid-morning: easy breather (if I think I need it)
- Lunch: nasal spray (if I am congested)
- Mid-afternoon: easy breather
- Nighttime: eye drops, nasal spray, easy breather, Zyrtec

Abortion - medical
A medical abortion is the use of certain medications to end a pregnancy. The drugs help remove the fetus and placenta from the mother's womb (uterus).
There are different types of medical abortion.
Sometimes the woman has one for a health reason. This is called a therapeutic medical abortion.
Other times, she chooses (elects) to end the pregnancy. This is called an elective medical abortion.
See also:
Alternative Names
Therapeutic medical abortion; Elective medical abortion; Induced abortion; Nonsurgical abortion
A medical, or nonsurgical, abortion can be done within 7 weeks from the first day of the woman's last menstrual period. A combination of prescription hormone medicines are used to help the body remove the fetus and placenta tissue. The doctor may give you the medicines after performing a physical exam and asking questions about your medical history.
Medications used to end an early pregnancy include mifepristone, methotrexate, misoprostol, prostaglandins, or a combination of these medications.
Why the Procedure Is Performed
There are several reasons a medical abortion might be considered:
- The developing baby has a birth defect or genetic problem
- The pregnancy is harmful to the woman's health (therapeutic abortion)
- The pregnancy resulted after a traumatic event such as rape or incest
- The woman may not wish to be pregnant (elective abortion)
Risks of medical (nonsurgical) abortion include:
- Continued bleeding
- Diarrhea
- Fetus not passing completely from body, making surgery necessary
- Infection
- Nausea
- Pain
- Vomiting
Before the Procedure
The decision to end a pregnancy is very personal. Most health care providers recommend careful counseling before making such a decision.
Abortion is a controversial issue. A woman who chooses to end a pregnancy may feel she cannot share her decision with others. Therefore, it is important for her to identify those who may help her through what may be a difficult time.
Women who are trying to make this difficult decision should find a safe place in which they can obtain counseling regarding all options for pregnancy resolution.
If a woman chooses to have an abortion, she should find a safe place to have the procedure performed and obtain the proper support and follow-up care afterwards.
Test done before this procedure:
- Pelvic examination is done to confirm the pregnancy and estimate how many weeks pregnant you are.
- HCG blood test may be done to confirm the pregnancy.
- Vaginal or abdominal ultrasound may be done to determine the exact age of the fetus and its location in the womb.
After the Procedure
Physical recovery usually occurs within a few days, depending on the stage of the pregnancy. A small amount of vaginal bleeding and mild uterine cramping should be expected for a few days.
A hot bath or use of a heating pad or hot water bottle on the abdomen may help relieve discomfort. Strenuous activity should be avoided for a few days. Sexual intercourse should be avoided for 2 to 3 weeks. A normal menstrual period should occur in about 4 to 6 weeks.
It's important to begin using birth control immediately after the abortion procedure. It is possible to get pregnant again even before having a normal menstrual period. Improved methods of contraception can help prevent many unplanned pregnancies. However, unplanned pregnancies occur even when couples use birth control.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Complications rarely occur.
Women who have a medical abortion have cramping and bleeding, and pass the pregnancy-related tissue as though they were having a miscarriage.
Some women feel ambivalent about ending a pregnancy, and may need psychological and emotional support. It may be helpful to seek counseling before making this very difficult decision.

AFT Resolutions
ZIMBABWE: POLITICAL, TRADE UNION AND HUMAN RIGHTS (Council)
WHEREAS, the American Federation of Teachers is deeply alarmed over the continued deterioration of political, economic, social, human rights and labor rights in the Republic of Zimbabwe; and
WHEREAS, the Zimbabwe ruling party's dominant control and manipulation of the political process makes a travesty of the announced results of the presidential elections held March 29, 2008.; During the period leading to the election, widespread reports criticized the role of government security forces and militant groups associated with the ruling party in the brutal and systematic intimidation of opposition candidates, voters, election officials and the media. After the election, during the uncertain period of counting and recounting the ballots, there continued a reign of violence and intimidation against opposition supporters and local election officials; and
WHEREAS, during the election, hundreds of Zimbabwean teachers, despite life-threatening intimidation to them and their families, served as polling station agents and vote counters to help maintain election transparency. Teachers later returned, in the face of even more severe threats, to take part in the ballot recount for the parliamentary electionsa recount that verified a victory for the opposition; and
WHEREAS, human rights groups worldwide have long criticized the Zimbabwe governments abuses of human rights, which have increased significantly during recent years. Police and security forces have acted with impunity, arbitrarily arresting and detaining labor leaders, journalists, peaceful protesters, religious leaders, and advocates for a democratic election process; and
WHEREAS, the savage police attack and torture in 2007 of the leader of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change, Morgan Tsvangirai (the former secretary general of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions), rightfully brought the worlds condemnation down upon the regime of president Robert Mugabe; and
WHEREAS, salaries, particularly for teachers, healthcare workers and others in the public sector, lag far behind regional and international standards for a living wage. In desperation, many of Zimbabwes most talented public servants are forced to seek work abroad, further impoverishing their home communities; and
WHEREAS, teachers work in an atmosphere that restricts academic freedom and that is subject to undue ruling party influence, intimidating faculty and students and destroying school property; and
WHEREAS, child labor remains a major issue as thousands of students are held out of school by an exploitative system that forces children to work in unsafe mines, agricultural fields and dangerous city streets; and
WHEREAS, concerning workers rights, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) has many times been called to investigate accusations that the Zimbabwean government is directly responsible for numerous labor violations, including the creation of government-sponsored shadow unions, freezing the payment of salaries, using unfair delaying tactics to hinder collective bargaining, and the chilling effect on trade union activity caused by constant monitoring by police, security forces and ruling party militias; and
WHEREAS, above all stands the governments clear role in directing violence against trade union activists exercising their clear legal and political rights. The government is directly implicated in workers arbitrary dismissals and transfers, as well as assault, kidnapping, torture and murder:
RESOLVED, that the AFT support the call for a peaceful resolution to the current election crisis, acceptance of the results of the election as expressed by the Zimbabwean people, and an immediate end to politically motivated intimidation and violence; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT stand in solidarity with labor unions in South Africa, Mozambique, Angola and Namibia that have refused to deliver shipments of Chinese-manufactured arms to the government of Zimbabwe weapons that can only inflame the political crisis; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT acknowledge the courage of millions of Zimbabweans, who despite intimidation, turned out to vote on election day in an atmosphere that was relatively calm and free of violence; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT condemn the completely unwarranted brutality against Zimbabwes trade union movement, and speak forcefully to pressure Zimbabwe to respect internationally recognized workers rights; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT call for the immediate release of trade unionists and others arrested and imprisoned while exercising their rights of free speech, association and political belief; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT support Zimbabweans who believe that the dignity of work, an end to discrimination, an end to forced labor, freedom of association, and the right of workers to be heard are not just labor rights, but human rights; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT work with Education International, Public Services International, international trade unions, and local Zimbabwean civil society organizations that share the values and objectives of promoting democracy, furthering workers rights, the rule of law and gender equality; and
RESOLVED, that the AFT support the right of all Zimbabwes children to a quality basic education, and oppose child labor and other exploitation of youth such as forced recruitment into politically motivated militant activities and sexual trafficking; and in their desire for a genuinely democratic and more prosperous future. (Executive Council 2008)

SA referee makes history
South Africa's Marlize Jordaan made history when she became the first woman to referee an international Sevens match for men in South America at the weekend.
Jordaan, pictured on the right with USA referee Leah Berard, represented South Africa in 2009 at both the Women's Nations Cup in Canada and Women's Sevens World Cup in Dubai.
She (Jordaan) refereed the match between Peru and Paraguay at the CONSUR Sevens at the Club Regatas do Flamengo on Sunday, February 24, in Rio de Janeiro.
This tournament served as a qualifier for the Rugby World Cup Sevens 2013, which takes place in Russia in June.
According to Bernd Gabbei, Referee Development Consultant for the International Rugby Board, Jordaan's appointment for the match between Peru and Paraguay, was based on merit after a few superb performances in the women's tournament, which was taking place at the same time.
André Watson, SARU General Manager: Referees, believes Jordaan's achievement is one to celebrate for the entire South African rugby fraternity.
"It's not that common for women to referee in men's matches, but Marlize has grown so much in her career as a referee, that we weren't surprised when we were told of her appointment," explained Watson.
"Last week Marlize refereed the Varsity Cup Young Guns match between the U20 teams of Kovsies and UP-Tuks, and was very good.
"In 2012, she also handled two matches in the Absa U19B Tournament with great aplomb. We're really expecting big things from her and are very proud of her achievement in South America."
At the CONSUR Sevens, Uruguay's men and Brazil's women have claimed the final remaining spots at the Rugby World Cup Sevens 2013, which will take place from June 28-30 in Moscow's iconic Luzhniki Stadium.

The community thinks...
The best kept secret by HJP on 09/09/2010. Trim: 2007 Saab 9-3 Aero Convertible, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Of course looks are a matter of opinion but I think this is the best looking convertible on the market, especially in one of the unique Saab colors (sky blue, bright yellow or lime green). The V6 is very strong across the RPM range, fun to drive and I believe this is the highest rated convertible for safety.
Cons: It's been said before but the center console is annoying the way it zips forward or back when you rest your arm on it, but not a major flaw.
Overall review: Good looking, very fun, so far high quality and a bargain as a used vehicle.

That would be a very expensive first wash.
I prefer the other styles of buttons but those are common.
Those are cool. I can honestly say that I have never seen these. Do they go through both sides of the shirt? And not stay with the shirt for washing?
They're removed before washing, so you won't have to worry about the buttons dropping of or anything like that, good in the long run, but a bit of a hassle sometimes. And you always lose them.. so it's good that they're cheap
Price drop. 105.00 delivered in the USA and additional 10.00 for Internationale. :)

Rico Reserve Classic Bb Clarinet ReedsReserve Classic reeds have been designed for clarinetists by clarinetists in collaboration with Mark Nuccio, Acting Principal Clarinetist of the NY Philharmonic.They undergo a special cane treatment process that helps reduce reed warping, and the gradual tip shape adding more tonal warmth. The traditional tip thickness makes for a quick articulation. These reeds are offered in 2.0 to 4.5 including a 3.5+ and 4.0+ strength.Like the Reserve line, they use only the densest, lower internode cane for longer durability and consistency
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
I've played pretty much every brand of reeds out there. Rico finally got it right with these. They all played out of the box and broke in really predictably. I thought I wouldn't wind up liking them but they have a really good tone and the cane is really the best I've seen since the Morre reeds. I'm putting down my Vandorens! When are you coming out with an Eb and Bass Clarinet?
I have tried most everything out there at one time or another. These are the best I have played without question. They are resilient, have a great tone, a great feel, are very stable and consistent. I have used them in a wide variety of situations- club dates, shows, orchestra, etc. in a variety of styles. They have come through with flying colors. I like playing them so much that I have sold all of my other stock of reeds to play these exclusively.
I must say, Rico has out done themselves. I am a student planning to major in Music Education/Theory. I tried other reeds Rico has made before a couple of years ago, and then switched to the Vandorens. I went to the store to get more reeds and the guy said said,"You know who makes good reeds now, Rico." I stood their confused. The guy thought so too. He said these were the ones. So I bought these reeds and I was amazed. From the very first note, the sound was pure and resonant. I didn't have to go through the whole box to find the perfect reed, they were all perfect. I am going to put my Vandorens away and keep these from now on.
These are great reeds; definitely not your old "orange box" Ricos! They are consistent, responsive, with a solid tone, and they don't misbehave. However, neither do they (for me) replace every other reed on the market. Different reeds have different sounds, best matched with different mouthpieces. Rico Reserves work well for a straight "legit" sound. For a more colorful tone there are other reeds out there. But 'em all and have a ball!
I was a mess when I was preparing for my college auditions. Having used Vandoren traditional "blue box" reeds for years, I was coming to the realization that consistency was anything but attainable with these reeds.In panic, Is started ordering reeds, but stayed within my trusted Vandoren line, I tried V12s and 56s but neither style matched the ideal combination of strong tone color and articulation efficiency I needed for the highly-competitive university world.
The day of my audition I was chatting with another hopeful musician, who introduced me to the Rico Reserve Classics. Stating that they were used by the virtuoso clarinetist Martin Frost, I was highly skeptical. Rico's are only for 5th graders right? Wrong.
When I bought these reeds the difference was immediate. They are incredibly consistant, rich and flexible.I will never return to what I used before, and if you're looking for a new cut of reed, there's no better place to start then with Rico Reserve Classic's.
Rico Reserve Classic reeds are the most consistent reeds on the market. I do not have to resurface, balance or do much to them and they play right out of the box! I keep them in the Rico Vitalizer Case with 73% packet and they never warp. I applaud Rico for their ingenious new process with these reeds. I haven't found a warped one yet. I've struggled with other brands of reeds for decades and I will never use another brand of reed again! My clarinet studio is almost 100% Rico reed users and they love them. I can't see spending money on a box of reeds that will only produce one or two good reeds when the Rico boxes are mostly 100% playable straight out of the box. You definitely get more for your buck with Rico reeds. Not to mention they get maximum reed vibration and resonance without having to do much work with embouchure! Beautiful effortless playing! Bravo!
I had read reviews of several clarinet reeds, and decided I'd go for the Vandoren V12. So I went to my local music store and asked for Vandoren V12 Clarinet 2.5. They didn't have any. So I had said screw it, gimme Rico Reserve. And they're great! I'd gotten fairly advanced on the saxophone, so I had started clarinet. I had been previously playing on Rico Orange, getting a thin, amateur sound. The moment I put this reed on the horn, my sound was much darker and beautiful! Highly recommended.

Awe-inspiring photography by Marc Adams.
Adams on his work:
I'd like to introduce you to the natural world I know. Come follow along on my journey. Explore, consider, and take something with you. This is nature through my eyes. These photographs do not arise from any particular desire to see the world through a lens, but rather from my deep passion for this land we call wilderness. It has shaped every aspect of my life. I wish to show you the amazing, beautiful and powerful forces that have created the Earth we live on…
I want you to know just how undeniably precious these lands are in their preservation. We NEED wilderness; now more than ever. The wilderness experience becomes ever more important to balance our lives as we become more industrialized and therefore bound within our own creations. This is because there exists within it a deep connection unlike anything that can be found in today's intense world of instantly manufactured gratification. There is a certain freedom that comes only when we are immersed in the natural world. I come to the wilderness to experience something much greater than ourselves, and I hope you will too…Never be afraid to explore, to wander, to find a new direction. Share the beauty of this wonderful life and this wonderful Earth so they may be here forever.

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