Self-distancing and its conceptual opposite, self-immersion, have been previously studied as induced and spontaneously occurring states. I argue that the perspective that one takes when engaging in self-focus can be understood as a personality trait. Two studies are reported where I construct and evaluate the Self-Distancing Scale (SDS), which is a self-report measure of trait self-distancing. In Study 1 I found that evidence for construct validity of the SDS was poor. I further found that, contrary to expectations, exploratory factor analysis of the draft pool of SDS items revealed two unrelated factors corresponding to self-distancing and self-immersion, rather than a single bipolar factor. Study 2 examined if the SDS could be used to prospectively predict emotional change under standardized laboratory conditions, but contrary to what is suggested by prior research, the SDS was not found to be significantly related to emotional change. A post hoc confirmatory factor analysis identified methodological sources of variance as the cause of the SDS's two factor structure. I offer suggestions for future research that could further investigate trait self-distancing without the limitations of the current studies.

The primary goal was to test the theory that executive functioning skills equip children with the cognitive tools necessary for experience-driven social conceptual change. To explore this possibility, 3.5-year-old children were recruited to participate in a longitudinal study that involved two study phases. During the initial phase, children were assessed on their false belief understanding and executive functioning skills, as well as abilities that served as relevant control variables (e.g., vocabulary skills). Two types of naturalistic experiences that relate to false belief development were also measured: parent mental state talk and having child-aged siblings. Six months later, families returned to the lab for the second phase of testing, and all measures were re-administered. Analyses examining concurrent relations among measures showed that at both study phases, there was an interactive effect of executive functioning skills and relevant experience on concurrent false belief task performance. This general pattern of results persisted—albeit in a weaker form—when controlling for consistency in executive functioning skills over time, age, vocabulary skills, and initial theory-of-mind knowledge. Longitudinal analyses revealed that there was an interactive effect of early executive functioning skills and experience on false belief understanding 6 months later, and these effects remained strong and significant when controlling for the relevant variables listed above. Moreover, the reverse longitudinal interactive effect—of later executive functioning and experience on early false belief knowledge—was not significant. Overall, effect sizes associated with the predicted longitudinal interaction were substantially larger than those associated with concurrent interactions. This study's longitudinal findings offer support for the hypothesis that executive functioning skills influence children's ability to use relevant experience in the service of false belief concept development. Further, the concurrent pattern of findings suggests that executive functioning skills are also recruited for actively reasoning about other minds in the moment, when children are faced with false-belief-reasoning situations. Alternative theories are discussed, with emphasis placed on taking an integrated theoretical approach to effectively characterize the effects of executive functioning on false-belief reasoning. Description: Thesis (Ph.D, Psychology) -- Queen's University, 2014-09-25 17:56:36.814 2014-09-25T04:00:00Z Emotion recognition in youth chronically victimized by their peers http://hdl.handle.net/1974/12488 Title: Emotion recognition in youth chronically victimized by their peers Authors: Irwin, ALEXANDRA Abstract: Bullying is a relationship problem defined by a power imbalance between individuals (Mahady-Wilton, Craig, & Pepler, 2000) and intent to inflict harm on another repeatedly and over time (Olweus, 2003). In the context of any relationship, the ability to quickly and accurately recognize others' emotional states through their facial expressions enables adaptive responding (Izard et al., 2001). While emotions are at the crux of social interaction, the emotional components of the relationship between youth who bully and youth who are victimized have received little attention. No research to date has examined the emotion processes of youth who are repeatedly, or chronically, victimized by their peers. Literature suggests two contrasting explanations for emotion processing in victimized youth: 1) children who are targeted by peer bullying have emotion recognition deficits, and 2) youth who are recurrently victimized by parents show enhancements in identifying specific emotions. The current study assessed which explanation would hold for youth who were chronically victimized by peers by evaluating the emotion recognition abilities of chronically victimized youth as compared to their non-victimized peers. Fifty-two youth (10-14 years, 63.5% female, 23 victimized participants) completed an emotion recognition task. The task was comprised of two segments of 12 expressions each, consisting of happy, sad, scared, angry, disgusted, and surprised faces increasing incrementally from neutral to extreme (Gao & Maurer, 2009). Participants' speed and accuracy at detecting these emotions were measured. Results did not support an overall deficit or enhancement for chronically victimized youth. However, despite no overall mean differences in detecting scared and surprised facial expressions, chronically victimized participants showed an improvement across segments as compared to non-victimized participants, whose scores remained consistent across trials. Findings suggest that chronically victimized youth may have a specific enhancement for identifying fear and surprise. The present study contributes to an understanding of emotion processes in youth who experience frequent peer aggression. Studying this initial stage in emotion processing may help to detect early problem behaviours in the bullying dynamic, thus making it possible to provide support to victimized youth before the roles of "victimized child" and "bullying child" become entrenched. Description: Thesis (Master, Psychology) -- Queen's University, 2014-09-23 20:08:03.971 2014-09-24T04:00:00Z The Development of Peer Victimization in Adolescence http://hdl.handle.net/1974/12470 Title: The Development of Peer Victimization in Adolescence Authors: Li, Joyce Abstract: Guided by a developmental framework, this thesis investigated the prevalence, continuity, and consequences of different forms of victimization across adolescence. From Grade 5 through Grade 12, over 3,000 youth completed self-report measures of physical, social, bullying, and sexual harassment victimization, as well as of internalizing symptoms, externalizing symptoms, and friendship quality. Developmental trajectory analyses identified three distinct pathways for each form of victimization, with most youth experiencing consistently low levels of victimization. Physical victimization affected a small proportion of youth in Grade 5 and became decreasingly prevalent with development, while social victimization was relatively common and persistent. Bullying victimization was common in preadolescence but declined through to mid-adolescence. Sexual harassment emerged as a new form of victimization as early as Grade 6, with most youth beginning to experience a low level of sexual harassment later in adolescence. There was evidence for heterotypic continuity in victimization: youth who experienced one form of victimization were likely to experience other forms of victimization. Furthermore, the form and frequency of victimization predicted increased risk for negative psychosocial outcomes. Findings from the study highlight the importance of early prevention and intervention, to protect youth from following trajectories of persistent victimization and of negative psychosocial outcomes. Moreover, interventions should focus on different forms of victimization as they become developmentally relevant. The social, biological, and psychological transitions that occur during this developmental period provide a framework for understanding the changing nature of peer victimization.

Go to our Automated Giving Page, or contact the parish office for a printed form and the staff can set it up for you. Special automated giving slips are available in the vestibule of the church for you to fill out and drop in the collection basket if needed.
Previously, our Parish used ParishPay for automated giving. If you need to change your giving method from ParishPay, please use this link.
Bank AutoPayYour bank may provide automatic payment or transfer services. Contact your bank and the parish office for the necessary details.
Use of the Envelope System, Parish Pay or Bank AutoPay services are encouraged as they provide documentation to support parishioners' tax deductions.
Wills and BequestsPlease call the parish office and we will direct you to the staff member who can assist you with your charitable gift.
Charitable Gift AnnuitiesHave you ever considered making a bequest to the Parish at the time of your death?
Or maybe you would like to get a tax deduction from a gift now, possibly from an appreciated asset, and still get an income stream every year until your death?
Are you heavily invested in CD's for safety purposes and would like to get a higher guaranteed rate of return, part of which would be tax free, while benefiting the Parish? But perhaps you're living off your assets and need all of them now. So you're deferring making a bequest until your death, even though you know that the gift may be subject to Estate Taxes.
All of these things and more could be addressed by making a "Charitable Gift Annuity" now. More on how Charitable Gift Annuities work...

my skin now is red with the same spots and the white acne increase !
What I need to say is that I am on Psychological Medications long time , and they might increase the acne as the doctor said >_<
but I still aspire in a soft beautiful skin without the ugly acne -__-

If you are only on your third week, your skin is probably still adjusting, and unfortunately it seems it gets worse before it gets better for most of us.
Here is a Q&A that might be helpful to you:
Will Retin-A Make my Skin Worse Before It Gets Better?
If you haven't already, you might want to check out the reviews posted by fattransfergirl and Carmen in Namibia. They have been doing a great job of documenting their experiences, and I'm sure they would be happy to hear from you if you have any questions or comments for them.
Keep updating us as you go so we can hear how things are going for you. Fingers crossed your skin will start to clear up and you will see some good benefits from the Retin-A!

Begin session
Ayacucho, land of artisans, is internationally known for its local art, for an example, the pottery of Quinua, carvings in 'huamanga stone' and its very well known altar pieces from Ayacucho, that originally were a representation of small portable nativities and nowadays include diverse themes related with traditional mountain people. Ayacucho is one of the most outstanding architecture and artistic developments nation wide. It is well known as the "City of Churches", because of its colonial temples, and as "Ciudad Senorial" for its architecture, tradition and art.
The city has more than thirty colonial temples pertaining to the Renaissance, baroque and half-breed or mestizo styles, with truly artistic works such as paintings, statues and beautiful altar pieces craved in wood and gold leaf, besides its majestic colonial mansions and important archaeological attractions to visit, for example: the Archaeological Wari and Vilcashuman Complexes.
In the same way, its festivities and carnivals are National Cultural Heritage; and the 'Semana Santa' celebration or Easter is the second important festivity world wide.
Local gourmet cuisine from Ayacucho is excellent. Among its more appreciated dishes are 'mondongo ayacuchano', which is guts casserole and 'puca picante', over potatoes and peanuts seasoned and the roast pork.

Eric Pincus's post on Basketball | Latest updates on Sulia
Lakers have been linked to Jodie Meeks, Leandro Barbosa & Kenyon Martin. The team has no "intention" to spend their Mini-MLE but under the right circumstances they will. Meeks can shoot but has to prove he can do more. He wants to be a Lakers, that's sourced. Barbosa needs the ball and can light it up - I'm not sold on the fit - but I would get it if they did it. Martin would make sense if McRoberts dealt. If not trade, don't forget Devin Ebanks would likely be back. A limit to how many LA adds

I remembered the other day my mum hugged me simultaneously and looked me in the eyes with a big smile on her face and said, 'This amnesia has caused your personality to change drastically, I thin...
I threw the blanket off of me and analysed my legs, they were long, lean and slightly tanned. They looked like it belonged to an adult. I bit my lip, it didn't seem right. I suddenly shook my head fiercely, I'm not nineteen goddamn it, I am twenty nine years old. I sighed and ran my hand through my tangled chestnut coloured hair. This passed two weeks have been so eventful, way too eventful for the ordinary. I woke up in the hospital down town and was so frightened of my surroundings, I had no idea what was going on or what have had happened to me. I didn't feel any different while I was asleep; it felt as if it was a night just like every night. It was all so wrong, just so frightening. The first I saw was my mother who stood up eagerly to see if I was okay, the only difference with her was that she looked way older than I have remembered. That was when I started screaming…
After the doctors and nurses calmed me down, I was informed that I was held hostage at a local bank a few days ago and that I must have gotten hit on the head by one of the robbers. It was still all too horrific to me; it still didn't explain why everyone looked so different. 'Amnesia', the doctor told me. 'You're suffering from amnesia, but thankfully you can recognize everyone in this room so it might not be that bad. We just need to run some tests.'
My memory has been erased from the age of nineteen till now, twenty nine. Ten years of memory lost. The doctor said it might come back to me, all those memories… bit by bit but it might take quite hardship for everyone to tell me about things they know that happened in the last ten years. That is what has been happening for the last two weeks, my family and relatives pitching in to help me remember what have happened in the last decade. I remembered the other day my mum hugged me simultaneously and looked me in the eyes with a big smile on her face and said, 'This amnesia has caused your personality to change drastically, I think it's for the best.' Believe me I don't know what she was on about, but I have a feeling that I wasn't a good person before all my memory was lost.
"Josephine, you're up pretty late today," my mother walked into my room gracefully.
"Is that why the sun is up so bright?" I asked and looked out the window again. "Can I go outside?"
She looked uncertain and pressed her lips together.
"Mum, I'm almost thirty. I think I can look after myself," I stood up.
She sighed, "Okay, I guess so."
"Good, I can get use to nature this way before I go out tomorrow to see my work colleagues."
"What?" her eyes widened.
"Mum, I have a life as my uncle has told me. I need to get back on my feet and keep working."
"But Josephine, you just only recovered and you have memory loss. That's too dangerous to put yourself out in the world again!"
I smiled, as I have remembered my mother was still the same protective woman she is. "Remember how we were talking about our trip to Greece? Remember how Aunt Gayle was telling me about how I was so stubborn and decided to go in the streets of Greece myself? I finished the story off for her because I remembered that! Now I'm sure I'll remember how to be an editor of a magazine."
"Even though you're not the same as you were, your stubbornness is still the same," she huffed and went to the kitchen.
I didn't care if my mother didn't understand me, I was too bored of listening to everyone telling me about what I did and didn't do with my life for the last decade. Like people say, the past is in the past. I was determined to make a future and I didn't need to wait for all my memories to come flowing back, if they were ever going to be.
That night I sat in between my mother and father who just came home from work. We were watching the news and a bulletin said that love was in the air because there were so many couples around. I turned to my mum who knew I was looking at her but avoided me.
"Mum, of all the things that people have told me, they only told me about what I did with life. They never told me who I loved, did I love anyone? Or was a just some loner?" I tilted my head to a side and waited for her to answer.
My mother glanced at my father before looking at me. "You didn't love anyone Josephine, but don't worry the person that you're destined to be with will come to your doorstep."
I rolled my eyes, so I was a loner. No wonder my mother said that I've changed. I must have been a horrible person that no one ever loved me.
"See, I knew all this editorial business you'd know off by heart as if you were born to do it," my work colleague Sandra told me the next day.
We were located at a popular café where it was busy but not crowded. They made great coffee and cake. I tried to dress up as professionally as I can but when I saw my work colleagues Sandra and Quinn, I knew I didn't need to. I tried to act normal and I realized I didn't have to try at all, I felt comfortable.
"If you want, you can get back to work this coming Monday." Quinn suggested. "See how it goes, if it's all too much maybe you can take a few weeks off again."
"I hope I don't need to, I'm really tired of just staying home," I chuckled.
The next few weeks, I got my life back on track. I moved back to my own apartment which I was surprised that I could even afford it because it looked so luxurious and very spacious. I was proud of myself for making a good career out of myself. Over in the few weeks I updated almost everything in my apartment, from my clothes to my furniture. Like my mother said, I was a changed person for the best and I wanted everyone that came into my apartment to know that. The new Josephine has arrived.
I've written this story on paper half way so far, but let me know what you think. So that way, I know I'm not wasting my time.

US occupation forces retake Kut city as 15 Iraqis, six Iranians killed in Karbala
US occupation forces have retaken control of the eastern Iraqi town of Kut, two days after Ukrainian troops withdrew from the city after clashes with Shi'ite militiamen.
Residents said Friday American troops are in control of the center of the town, and convoys of US armored vehicles have been seen on roads to the area.
Meanwhile, new firefights between Polish and Bulgarian soldiers and Shiite fighters in Karbala killed 15 Iraqis, while six Iranian pilgrims were shot dead at a Polish checkpoint, Aljazeera reported.
These incidents took place a day before millions of Shiites are expected to converge on Karbala for the holy day of Arbain.
The Thursday night clashes also injured 21 Iraqis, said Salah Mahdi, head of Karbala's health department.
The six Iranians were shot dead on the road between Babel and Karbala as their vehicle approached a Polish checkpoint, a Karbala police spokesman said.

Media Release
Senator the Hon Robert Hill
Leader of the Government in the Senate
Minister for the Environment
22 September 1998
The Coalition will provide $50 million to improve management and protection for Australia's marine environment, Federal Environment Minister, Robert Hill, announced today at the release of the Liberal and National Parties' environment policy - Our Living Heritage.
"During the past two years, the Howard/Fischer government has been developing a comprehensive oceans policy for Australia. We have also massively increased funding for coastal and marine programs - $125 million was allocated from the Natural Heritage Trust for our Coasts and Clean Seas program which is helping communities reduce marine pollution, protect marine species and rehabilitate stretches of our coastline. This financial year we will spend five times the amount Labor planned to spend in their last budget.
"This new funding, to be sourced from consolidated revenue and the Natural Heritage Trust, will support the implementation of the oceans policy, which will be completed immediately following the election," Senator Hill said.
"One of the key objectives of the oceans policy is to support coordinated and 'ecosystem' based management for our oceans.
"We want to ensure that all marine sectors are working together and that the environmentally artificial boundary between Commonwealth and State waters does not hinder sound management of our oceans.
"The Coalition will therefore establish a new Regional Marine Planning process which will be designed to protect the conservation values of our oceans and to provide long-term security to marine-based industries.
"For each region, the Plans will determine what areas should be assessed for inclusion in the marine park system, determine the long term needs of industry, establish gaps in our scientific knowledge and priorities for future scientific research.
"These Plans will ensure that increased marine resource use occurs sustainably and that we avoid the development of the type of conflicts that have surrounded the use of natural resources on land. While they will focus on Commonwealth waters, we will invite the States to participate in the development of the Plans to extend their coverage into State waters.
"The Regional Marine Plans will be considered by all relevant Ministers and, when finalised, will guide all Commonwealth marine agencies.
"Our oceans program will also support action to improve marine water quality. The Coalition will support the development of national marine and estuarine water quality standards through the National Environment Protection Council.
"We will also increase efforts to rehabilitate sites affected by acid sulfate soils and ban the use of the anti-fouling paint, trubutyltin, after 2006.
"These measures will build on the $50 million that the Howard/Fischer government allocated to the Clean Seas program to reduce sewage and stormwater pollution.
"We will increase funding for the declaration and management of Commonwealth marine parks. We strongly support the development of a network of marine parks to protect conservation values in our waters. So far, we have declared the world's second largest marine park in the Great Australian Bight and have announced our intention to establish parks in five other areas.
"This new funding will allow the federal government to increase its efforts to identify sites for marine parks and improve the management of those and existing parks.
"Our package also will increase support for efforts to avoid the introduction of exotic marine pests through ballast water and establish a national moorings program to protect sensitive marine environments from anchor drag."
Senator Hill said that the Coalition will also improve protection for threatened and endangered marine species.
"At the next meeting of the Convention on the International Trade of Endangered Species (CITES), a Coalition government will nominate the Great White Shark for listing to stop the international trade of this endangered species," Senator Hill said.
"We will also remove the blanket exemption currently given to marine species under the Wildlife Protection Act which controls the trade of native wildlife. In future, we will only exempt species that are harvested under ecosystem-based management plans.
"We will also complete a recovery plan for Australia's endangered turtles
"During the past two years, the Howard/Fischer government has significantly improved the federal government's efforts to protect our marine environment - an area largely neglected by the former Labor government.
This new package of measures will maintain that effort," Senator Hill said.

Fun land at home
Good for age: 13 months (but older and younger kids might enjoy it, too!)
Skills developed: gross motor skills, balance
What you'll need: Things that your toddler can climb, bounce, sit, stand and jump on. Try sofa cushions, pillows, a booster seat, a large cardboard box and a big plastic storage container.
What to do: First, clear the room. Remove anything with sharp corners and push toys to the side. Then set about designing your indoor playground. Turn the storage container upside down and place it in front of the couch so that your toddler can practise climbing. Put several flat sofa cushions on the floor for bouncing.
Put a booster seat on the floor as well. Some toddlers have loads of fun just crawling into the booster seat, sitting for a minute, and crawling out. Make a "fort" by turning a cardboard box on its side and putting it in the corner, so that it's supported by two walls. (Many toddlers love to fit themselves into spaces that are just their size.)
Now set your toddler loose. Let her explore while you follow along behind to assist as needed. She may prefer to stick with just one activity, or she may want to try several.
Note: this activity will probably get your toddler a bit wound up, so make sure you plan something calming after the visit to fun land is over, perhaps playing with blocks or reading a book together.

Our family enjoys visiting the proud and gracious Basque people -- not only to enjoy their famous cuisine, but because we enjoy the flavor of their life as sea-going people. They are intimately tied to the sea in every imaginable way – from the many small fishing boats plying the Bay, to the great port of Bilbao and the elegant seaside city of San Sebastián.
Formerly only known as a bustling industrial port, in recent years Bilbao has been transformed by the dramatic new Guggenheim Museum. Along with tourists from the four corners of the world, we have enjoyed their collection of modern and contemporary art displayed in a fascinating architectural setting.
San Sebastián, the other famous Basque port, is the pinnacle of sophistication and leisure. We find there is nothing quite like the city's pintxos, Basque-style tapas bars, with merry makers spilling into the narrow streets of the Gothic quarter with an elegantly fragile, clear glass of the local sidra hard cider. Opportunities for seafood dining are legendary, as are the grand hotels and luxury shopping.
Throughout the region there are literally one thousand txokos or gastronomic societies. Each one was founded by a group of friends who gather to cook amazing Basque dishes and enjoy them around a big fraternal table. These traditional societies are typically 100% Basque and male, though this has changed in recent years.
The Basque Country is a seafood oasis, and is most famous for its incredible silky anchovies preserved in olive oil, its delicately flavored bonito white tuna and its bacalao salt cod.
We find there is a certain purity in being served bonito which a fisherman caught by line, and brought into the port at the end of the day. Since our office is in Zarautz, it is not uncommon for us to dine at a café with the fishing boats tied up nearby.
The most famous catch of the Basques, bacalao salt cod, has been caught by fishermen for many centuries as they braved the North Atlantic sailing as far away as the Great Banks of Newfoundland. Cod was caught in such quantities that it was key to warding off famine during hard times. Today bacalao has risen from its humble origin to become a gourmet's delight when served as the classic Bacalao al Pil Pil in its own juices.
For us the combination of straightforward mountain people along with salty fisherman, mixed with the sophistication of the people of its great cities, make this one of the most enjoyable places to linger – not just for the fabulous cuisine, but also for the warm interchange with the people.
"There are a lot of Basque people in Wyoming. Most came over to work sheep. Every year there is a Basque Festival somewhere in the West. Last year it was in Buffalo, Wyoming, where my wife was born. Her father was a sheep man and came over from a little town north of Pamploma (Sumbilla). We go to Spain about every other year. "
Ronald Green MD, Cheyenne, WY
"It is fun to go back, isn't it? Do tell me if there is a Basque festival on the East Coast. Ruth and I would love to attend.
" - Don Harris
"I have been a La Tienda customer for about four years now and so appreciative that I can get the products to Canada through the border town of Pt. Roberts in the state of Washington. I always have a stock of chorizos, now have jamon serrano, salcichon and all my paella products. Muchas gracias!"
Amalia Estrella, Canada
"Dear Amalia,
I am delighted you have figured out how to solve the customs puzzle. Rules have useful purposes, normally, but sometimes they are a pain. I am glad you are able to enjoy all these Spanish treats." - Don Harris
"The Basques are great. A few years back my wife and I were roaming the streets of Bilbao and looked through the door of a lively bar, or so we thought. The men and women were gathered round a pair of large tables singing, talking and enjoying some wine. Someone waved us in and we entered. It was one of the men's cooking clubs and this was one of the two nights annually when the wives were allowed in. They had already finished eating and we joined in the socializing and wine. At the end of the evening I was presented with a chefs apron from the recent cooking competition between several clubs. The apron and the memories are treasured to this day. Pat"
Pat Storey, East Otis, MA
"Those cooking clubs are wonderful, aren't they. We drove by one yesterday in a Basque village. I guess we should have stopped by! " - Don Harris

Venezuela, a paradise in search of tourists
The Canaima national park in Canaima, Bolivar state, Venezuela, on January 26, 2011. After neglecting the tourism sector for years, in favor of the lucrative oil industry -- Venezuela has the world's largest proven reserves -- the government in Caracas is now working hard to attract visitors.
In a country where explorer Christopher Columbus once believed he had found heaven on earth, officials are struggling to draw travelers, with only 700,000 visitors each year, in part due to Venezuela's somewhat tarnished image.
After neglecting the tourism sector for years, in favor of the lucrative oil industry -- Venezuela has the world's largest proven reserves -- the government in Caracas is now working hard to attract visitors.
However, the country suffers from outdated infrastructure -- hotels, highways and domestic flights are all lacking -- and wary foreigners who choose different destinations after seeing Venezuela's high crime rates.
"The main enemy of the development of tourism in Venezuela was oil," Carlos Vogeler, regional Americas director for the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), told AFP.
"When a country has such a major revenue generator, it has a tendency to ignore others."
Venezuela's new tourism minister, Andres Izarra, says he intends to put his country on the map as a vacation hotspot.
"Our goal is to reach one million foreign tourists" from 2014, he said.
While infrastructure may be lacking, attractions surely are not.
From the biodiversity of the Orinoco Delta to the richness of the Amazon jungle, from Andean peaks to the hundreds of kilometers (miles) of idyllic beaches, Venezuela seemingly has it all.
Angel Falls is the tallest waterfall in the world, the pristine coral reefs of the Los Roques archipelago attract divers, and others are keen to explore the "tepuis" -- towering mountains in the southeast.
The successes of neighboring countries provide some hope: according to UNWTO statistics, Colombia welcomed 2.1 million visitors last year, 4.5 million people flocked to the Dominican Republic and its famous resorts and Brazil had 5.6 million visitors. In 2011, Cuba opened its doors to 2.6 million tourists.
Several months ago, the ministry launched a high-profile campaign to draw tourists. New air routes were opened, airports were renovated and the government renewed languishing contacts with industry players.
Izarra also announced that two tropical islands previously closed to the public -- La Tortuga and La Orchila islands -- would soon be opened.
For Marilucy Beltran, president of the Venezuelan Association of Travel and Tourism Agencies, Venezuela has not capitalized on offering vacation packages and is in desperate need of better public-private collaboration in the tourism sector.
"Here, everything is separate: the flight, the hotel, excursions," she said.
Gael Lejay of Tucaya, a French travel agency in Caracas established in 1996, says that "all involved parties should sit down at the table to coordinate their efforts."
According to Beltran, another important issue to fix is the country's control of currency exchange, which has caused the value of the US dollar to skyrocket on the black market.
"The official exchange rate makes it very expensive for foreigners to travel to Venezuela, because the rates for hotel and services are calculated based on the parallel rate," she explained.
But according to Vogeler, the first order of business for the government is to address fears over crime.
"Perception is more important than reality" when it comes to tourism, he said.
In Margarita, one of the country's main vacation destinations, several tourists die every year in armed robberies.
Venezuela has the highest murder rate in South America with nearly 55 for every 100,000 people. The government acknowledged more than 16,000 murders in 2012 among a population of 29 million.

Corinto weather
Hi, I know its hot there but am wondering if anyone could tell me when the coolest time of the year is for specifically Corinto? When I try to look it up it only gives me weather in Managua. Thank you for any help you can afford. Zia
Pretty much the same all over
The Northamerican winter from about mid-December to mid-february or a prolonged rainy spell in the wet season. But you cannot count on it on a daily basis. I went to Leon last year in January to beat the heat and the days I was there it was very hot. When I went to Corinto, it was misearable on the streets that did not have an oceen breeze but ok on the other streets.
``Socialism works fine until you run out of other peoples` money``
Margaret Thatcher
Same as other places in Nicaragua
The coolest weather is typically December-January and the hottest in April-May. While I have no data to back this up, it always seemed cooler to me than SJdS.
Here are some sites
Average temps in Corinto 1971 - 2000

Two American hackers have admitted to have stolen some $15 million, before a New Jersey court, authorities say. Robert Dubuc, 40, of Malden, Massachusetts, and Oleg Pidtergerya, 49, of Brooklyn, New York, pleaded guilty to wire fraud conspiracy, conspiracy to commit access device fraud and identity theft before U.S. District Judge Peter Sheridan in Trenton federal court.
U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman in a statement said that both the men had been involved in a campaign to "cash out" bank accounts and pre-paid debit cards opened in the names of others.
He said The hackers tapped into accounts in 2012 and 2013 at global financial businesses and institutions – Citibank N.A., JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A., PayPal, TD Ameritrade, the U.S. Department of Defense, TIAA-CREF and others – and diverted money to accounts and debit cards they controlled, Fishman said. They then employed "cash out" operations, using people who would withdraw the stolen funds at ATMs and with fraudulent purchases in New York, Massachusetts, Illinois, Georgia and elsewhere.
Wire fraud conspiracy carries a potential sentence of 20 years in prison, while the other two charges each carry the possibility of five years in prison, as well as heavy fines.
Sentencing was scheduled for July 7 for Pidtergerya and July 8 for Dubuc. The investigation was carried out by US Federal Agencies.

Hi - Hopefully someone can give me some advice on a problem that I am having in the final stages of sending a Windows 7 image from a reference PC back to the WDS Server.
I am running a test environment with the followiing setup:
x1 2008 R2 Server - DC, DNS
x1 2008 R2 Member Server - DHCP, WDS
I am trying to create an image from a W7 Pro reference PC. I have got through each stage of the process without any problems until I have got to the point where you are asked for "The New Image Location". I have selected to send the image to the WDS Server.
I have typed the WDS server name in and recieved the challenge for a username and password. I have typed the username in with the following format domainname\administrator and the password. This is default administrator account for the domain. I cannot authenticate with this account. Is there any other user account that I should be using for authentication?
Many thanks

Federal Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) benefits ended on December 29, 2013.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- Crews at the University of Louisville are working to remove mold from three dorms on campus ahead of the fall semester.
Half of Threkheld Hall, which has 260 rooms, will be gutted because of fungus caused by damp conditions and moisture in rooms. Crews removed wooden furniture from the dorms Thursday, just 18 days before students arrive for orientation.
"So to be safe we're removing all of the wooden wardrobes in Threkheld Hall," Cindy Hess, with UofL, said.
A record number of first year students expected to start class Aug. 26 for the Fall Semester. Students on campus Thursday said they are glad all this is happening before classes begin.
"I have really bad allergies to mold it just bothers a lot of people and I don't want to be around it and I hope they get it cleaned up," UofL sophomore, Jason Hand, said.
During midterm exams, seven months ago, 300 students were forced out of Miller Hall due to mold issues. A hefty $5 million price tag for new furniture, relocation and housing.
"There were a lot of students who I knew were frustrated they moved into the hotel and stuff," UofL senior, Elizabeth Whiteley, said.
This time, a routine summer inspection revealed three rooms in Miller Hall, along with a basement and common areas of Unitas Hall, have the problem.
"These are older dorms and we do live in a part of the country where mold is very prevalent and an ongoing thing," Hess said.
Students will start showing up on campus Aug. 19 for orientation. Hess said the dorms will have new furnishings and be safe for students.

The Samsung Flight offers a unique, likable design and a fair number of features, but some performance gaps keep it from playing in the big leagues.
The Department of Transportation is said to be looking at a blanket ban on up-in-the-air chatting.
Much of the equipment that planes and ships use to access satellite communications networks is wide open like the sea and sky itself, says a security researcher presenting his findings later this week.
The Samsung Flight II may have decent multimedia features, but its overall sluggishness keeps us from recommending it.
The wireless carrier partners with aerospace leader Honeywell to bring airline passengers a 4G LTE connection.
The airlines is reportedly getting ready to debut an Apple-only entertainment service that will let users access more than 150 movies and 200 TV shows while up in the air.
Gogo and Delta have the necessary approvals to start installing satellite dishes into Delta's fleet of long-haul international jets. Globe-trotters could be connected as soon as March.
The airline's BoardConnect entertainment system can stream in-flight movies directly to Android, iOS, or Windows Phone devices.
Even though the FCC is moving forward on lifting the ban on phone calls while in flight, Delta's CEO says his airline still won't allow it.
A recent FCC vote improves the chances for in-flight cell phone use, but not everybody is thrilled about the possibility.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (KDBC) — The murder trial of Eugene "Gino" Ferri continued Tuesday in Las Cruces.
Ferri is accused of killing 69-year-old Gilles Delisle, his wife 72-year-old Helga Delisle and their friend and business partner 68-year-old Peter Weith at their Mesilla home in April of 2010.
The murders happened the day before Gilles Delisle was scheduled to appear in a court regarding property belonging to Ferri that was to be sold to pay off a debt.
The state said they have evidence from a witness and bullet casings that were recovered at the scene from a gun Ferri owned.
The defense said it was impossible for Ferri to commit the murders due to time-stamped receipts of various purchases he made around town at the same time the couple and their business partner were murdered.
Tune in to Local 4 News for the latest on this trial.
