Diplomatic notification 2006/1:
Notification 2006/1
34th Meeting of the Ramsar Convention Standing Committee (10-13 April 2006)
The Secretariat of the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971) presents its compliments to the Permanent Mission of ... and has the honour to refer to the following:
Preparations for the 34th meeting of the Standing Committee
As required by Resolution VII.1, the Secretariat is pleased to inform that the 34th Meeting of the Standing Committee will be held at the Secretariat in Gland, Switzerland, from 11-13 April 2006, with a meeting of the Subgroup on Finance scheduled on 10 April. Enclosed is a preliminary Programme for the meeting.
Voting members of the Standing Committee are: Benin, Gabon, Kenya, Malawi, and Uganda (Chair and COP9 Host) for Africa; China, Islamic Republic of Iran, Republic of Korea (COP10 Host) and Thailand for Asia; Austria, the Czech Republic, Georgia and Slovenia for Europe; Bahamas (Vice-Chair), Ecuador and El Salvador for the Neotropics; the United States (Chair of the Finance Subgroup) for North America, and Samoa for Oceania. The Netherlands and Switzerland have the status of Permanent Observers. The official International Organization Partners of the Convention (BirdLife International, IUCN, IWMI, Wetlands International, and WWF International) are also invited to attend, as is the Chair of the Ramsar Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP).
Members of the Finance Subgroup are: USA (Chair), Benin, China, Czech Republic, Ecuador and Samoa. It is anticipated that the Subgroup on Finance will meet on Monday 10 April 2006.
All other Contracting Parties are entitled to attend as observers, and, as indicated by COP7 Resolution VII.1 (paragraph 13), "countries which are not Contracting Parties but have expressed an interest in joining the Convention may be also admitted as observers".
The Secretariat would be grateful if Contracting Parties wishing to attend the meeting as Observers and those non-Contracting Party countries seeking Observer status at the meeting would notify their intention to participate in that capacity by 28 February 2006 so that working papers may be dispatched (by electronic means) when finalised. Working documents will also be available from the Web site. Registration forms for the 34th meeting of the Standing Committee are available upon request from: email@example.com or fax no. +41 22 999 0169.
It should be noted that, due to financial constraints, the working papers for the Standing Committee, with the exception of the draft agenda and programme, are produced in English only. Simultaneous interpretation in the three official languages (English, French and Spanish) will be provided during the plenary sessions 11-13 April 2006, but not at any Subgroup meetings which may be convened.
Likewise, financial constraints prevent the Secretariat from providing financial support to assist Observer states in attending. Such support can only be offered to one delegate from eligible voting members of the Standing Committee, upon request.
Contracting Parties unable to attend the meeting as Observers are invited to offer views and opinions, as appropriate, to the Representative(s) from their region, or to transmit them directly to the Secretariat.
The Secretariat of the Convention on Wetlands respectfully requests that the content of the present note be communicated to the competent national authorities and avails itself of this opportunity to renew to the Permanent Mission of ... the assurance of its highest consideration.
Gland, 10 January 2006

It is a shame that someone as poor politically as this politician is has chosen to defend the Bandera issue.
Of all the politicians in the RADA he is amongst the most useless.
Could there not have been a better defender of the Bandera issue than him?
Not that I personally care whether he keeps the award or not.
Yanukovich as President of Ukraine should be defending its heroes.
I'm surprised the EU has time to make stupid votes on issues they have little knowledge nor care on the matter ,as they are to busy milking the gravy train and awarding themselves large pay rises
It has all to do with Russian gas.
The EU knows that this is all just a game to them.
How can we forget European values. Oh, my ,year 1933. Ukrainian wheat taken from starving to death people and sent to the West by Stalin. They ate it, knowing that Ukraine was starving and didn't choke on it!!!
OUN was an organization,responsible for ongoing military resistance against occupying Germans and occupying red armies(russians).This was a result of Ukrainian regular army being forced out of Ukraine in battles against the reds(communists).There were no ukrainians in the red armies till Ukraine had been fully occupied and Petlura driven out and murdered in Paris by a Jewish NKVD agent.The russian/jewish conspiracy of that era is to this day serving the interests of Russia today. Their lies about Ukrainian history continues to disinform politicians of Europe and even USA,but learned people of the free world will not be bought by their lies.
Bandera deserved his hero status much more than obama his peaca prize,,
obama is the chief of staff of an army that commits genocidr in iraq pakistan afghanistan,, so they give him the peace prize,,,
the world should have objrcted to that peace prize big time
Bandera deserved the gallows. Unfortunately he was shot - too much humanity for that little monster.
Stalin was the monster and Hitler! Bandera fought against both evils! You Katsapy were the biggest monsters of the 20th century, have the most innocent blood on your hands in Europe!!
What a shame that Ukraine,has once again been re-occupied by elements serving the Kremlin.Politicians of Ukraine -shame on you for not supporting Timoshenko as our only presidential hope.We the people of UKRAINE plead with those that will be voting in Verhovna Rada on 1st March 2010,to remember we have one common enemy Yanukovich and Russia.
If you don't support Timoshenko, and she has full right to hold power and dictate to all those imbeciles that allowed Yanukovich to power.
"The ides of March" are nigh -so let's see who stabs Ceasar and what will be the consequences?
The consequence will be a cosy cell at your local insane ward waiting for you
Imposter Maimai, you never tire of using other's names do you?
Bandera is a Hero of Ukraine! You can go pack up your bags and go camping with the Nashi youth in Siberia!
Bravo Mr. Parubiy, thank you for standing up for the truth about who Stepan Bandera was. He was truly a WW II war hero who dared to fight against both forms of totalitarianism, the German Nazi variety and the Soviet Russian one. Bandera was a forerunner of the great Ronald Reagan who dared to call the Evil Empire, the Evil Empire and thank God that it has come to an end and Ukraine is today a free and sovereign nation, and with God's help it will remain so until Christ returns.

It's a Television AND a Plush Toy!
As if we need a way to get kids to watch more television.
Momlogic's Momstrosity: A furry polar bear television is one of the many gadgets on display at the 2010
Consumer Electronics Show. The Teletubby-esque animal has a 19" TV screen implanted in
its tummy. Eh-Oh!
Produced by Hannspree, the arctic bear TV is purportedly designed to raise environmental awareness. The only thing it does for me is raise awareness of the odiousness of market research. I imagine the initial conversation at Hannspree went like this:
R&D Flunky: Boss, our data says kids love television, toys, and animals. Maybe we should combine the three?
C.E.O.: Let's use a polar bear so we can say we're concerned about global warming!
R&D Flunky: Done.
Here's another reason why blurring the line between toy and television is a ridic idea: Buy this boob tube -- list price almost 300 bucks -- and get ready to say this to your kid: "No honey, you can't take the television into bed with you!"
You really make it appear really easy along with your presentation however I to find this topic to be actually something that I believe I might by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very huge for me. I'm taking a look ahead on your next put up, I'll attempt to get the hold of it!
I wish more people would write sites like this that are actually interesting to read.

AICN COMICS Q&@: Lyzard interviews creators of KILL SHAKESPEARE!!!
@'s by KILL SHAKESPEARE's Anthony Del Col, Conor McCreery & Andy Belanger!
LYZARD (LYZ): What were your experiences with Shakespeare prior to working on this series?
ANDY BELANGER (AB): Like so many of us, Shakey was force-fed to me in high school. However when we moved from Twelfth Night to Macbeth something clicked! The tragedy was something I had only ever really seen in The Empire Strikes Back. The idea of eliminating a happy ending seemed more effective and real to me. It became an important part of how I create. Jody Hill must be a Shakespeare fan!
ANTHONY DEL COL (ADC): I don't have a major in English but have been a lifelong fan of the Bard. In high school I had not only a good English teacher (thanks, Mr. Cribbs!) but also the opportunity to see some of his plays performed on the stages of the Stratford Festival (the top Shakespeare company in North America). I've always been enthralled with how Shakey was able to combine larger-than-life characters and stories with some poignant, subtle moments. Such a great entertainer.
CONOR MCCREERY (CM): I was like Anthony in that high school really helped me take to the Bard. The big key was when Mrs. Thomson took our class to Stratford to see The Tempest. Watching Colm Feore leap about the stage as Caliban gave me a whole new appreciation for how kinetically amazing the Bard's work could, and should be. I also had some exposure to Shakespeare through some of the theatre classes I took at Wilfrid Laurier University (thanks Dr. O'Dell).
LYZ: How did you come to choose Hamlet as the lead protagonist?
CM: Weirdly, Hamlet almost didn't make the cut. We originally intended our lead character to be a contemporary figure – a cop who had lost his fiancée to an act of violence – but we worried that the audience would see the KILL SHAKESPEARE Universe as less real if they were identifying with someone from New York or Toronto. And hey, if you want to have a main character dealing with the pain of losing a family member, why would you go anywhere else but Hamlet?
ADC: Hamlet's a character tough to write for as he's often a passive protagonist. Whereas most lead characters actively look to do something, Hamlet doesn't. He'd prefer to sit out some confrontations or decisions. As Darwyn Cooke wrote in his foreword to our first trade, he can sometimes be perceived as an "emo douche" but we like the arc we've created for him as the series has gone on.
LYZ: What research did you do for the series?
ADC: Conor and I intentionally elected to not do a lot of research when we started to conceive and write the series. We wanted to be able to create a story that didn't require a Masters or PhD in Literature or Shakespeare to be able to get into our story.
CM: I've reread a few of the plays while writing my share but like Anthony I wanted to avoid being shackled to the minutiae of the Bard. We're aiming to capture the essence of his plays, not necessarily the specific plots.
AB: For the creation of the look I chose to do a lot of research and watched a lot of films to get reference points. Roman Polanski's Macbeth was my biggest inspiration as was Branagh's Henry V. One of the interns at my studio got me all 38 audio plays and I started getting into plays I had never read! I would listen while drawing and that's where I discovered my love for The Tempest and the coffin scene from Merchant of Venice. I'm still going but it's fun to draw Othello while you listen to the play. It gives me a greater depth to the character and I try to translate that into the drawing!
LYZ: Juliet is almost a Joan of Arc like character in the series. Did you find any inkling of such strength in the play?
CM: Well, we're Star Wars fans so we wanted to have our Princess Leia! And if you look at Leia she sort of disappears a bit as an action heroine as that series went on so we wanted to make sure our main female character had a proactive 21st century vibe. And, talking source material, we've heard people argue (and we agree) that Juliet is the strongest character in her play. She's the one who decides the agenda. Or, put another way, Juliet is active and Romeo is far more reactive – and we wanted to keep true to that active nature.
ADC: I believe that Romeo & Juliet is Shakespeare's best-known play worldwide so it's great to be able to put our own spin on one of its characters. We didn't want a "damsel in distress" and she's one of the most interesting characters to write and conceive.
LYZ: As for the artwork, the tone of the series can become incredibly dark, yet the colors remain bold and strong. What was the though process behind that?
AB: I've always enjoyed bold color with my work. So many horror comics just become mud after the coloring is finished and I didn't want it to have a dark "Photoshop soup" feeling to it. I'm really influenced by the old Jack Davis EC Comics and it just seems to naturally translate into my pages. I love creators of the 50's, 60's and 70's – they are my go-to for inspiration. Buscema's Frankenstein is the kind of stuff I dig! All those old Creepy publications are what floats my boat.
I feel like people in the industry are losing that skill, that discipline of drawing from the hand raw and replacing it with smoke and mirrors that come out of their computer programs. I'm talking, of course, about things like Google Sketch Up or Poser, those cheats that suck all the life out of the work. I use practically zero reference for KILL SHAKESPEARE and sure, maybe it shows from time to time when that little horse in the back kinda looks like my dog, but I can feel myself improving and my work developing its own unique look.
ADC: Our colorist, Ian Herring, has done a great job with the coloring of the series, ranging from the variations on smoke to some magnificent details in the various skies.
CM: One of the great things that came from working with Andy and Ian was learning from them about how to use color. We all knew we wanted something moody, but Andy and Ian were geniuses at keeping that from becoming generic. And of course they both showed a phenomenal knack for comedic art – Issue #3 may be my favourite.
LYZ: As for the writing, how do you two as partners work together as not to step on each other's toes?
ADC: Conor and I work together to come up with the big picture story for the entire series as well as the major story beats for each issue. We would then individually take an issue and do the draft, pass it back-and-forth until it's done.
CM: And then when I argue he locks me in the cupboard until I say sorry. If Justin Bieber or Robert Pattison end up as Hamlet in a film version that will have been Anthony's idea and you'll find my corpse in a pantry somewhere.
LYZ: What is the story leading up to KILL SHAKESPEARE, how long did you have the idea before it became a reality?
CM: It was something we came up with in 2006 during a brainstorming session. We were riffing off of Kill Bill and after deciding that Cosby, Clinton and Shatner were bad targets (too political, too political and waaaay too political), we decided to go after the Bard himself. Five years, nine investors, two jobs, and 11 issues later – here we are!
ADC: It was an idea we immediately loved but we were too busy to do anything with it immediately. But like Hamlet's ghost, it kept on haunting us and coming back to us and we knew we needed to bring it to life.
LYZ: Both writers have worked in the film and television industry. Any plans on adapting KILL SHAKESPEARE?
ADC: Even before the first issue came out last year we were approaching by a number of film production companies and other parties in Hollywood. We told them that our first priority was finishing off the current series before we turn our attention to developing a film version.
CM: The two mediums are very different and we wanted to make sure we made the comic what it needed to be. While we are very proud of our idea, and obviously film and TV provide a more extensive delivery mechanism in which to reach people, we're not eager to just pump out half-baked spin-offs. But we have been able to start working on a film script and we've made a LOT of heretical changes to the comic so, if nothing else, we've proven we're willing to kill our babies.
LYZ: What was the challenge in making Shakespeare's language more accessible?
CM: Losing the poetic nature of his work. We wanted to make sure the comic had its own rhythm and meter. I think early on we over-wrote a bit. Now I sometimes feel like we're underwriting slightly. It's a fine rope to walk.
ADC: The proper use of "thee" and "thou" proved to be a little difficult. We were fortunate that we had some scholars and teachers approach us early in the series and offer their help. We now pass each script through them to get their thoughts and notes on the language. Dost thou think it fine now…?
LYZ: KILL SHAKESPEARE was brought out over quite a period of time. Was there any allowance for fan input or were things pretty set from the get-go?
DC: We love the fact that we can get instant feedback from readers, critics and fans as the series goes on. It's unlike most other industries and we really enjoy the opportunity to receive a feedback loop like that as we proceed.
CM: For the most part fans comment on the comic in broad terms, we haven't received too much in the way of "do this" or "don't do this," but we read suggestions and criticisms closely and definitely we've made changes because of them.
LYZ: Look for KILL SHAKESPEARE's 12th and final issue this month from IDW Publishing

the premise of this series, but had big issues with the way the characters were portrayed therein. I would have really enjoyed seeing a story that weaved itself in and out of an actual narrative timeline constructed from the Bard's stories, and having all of the players making choices that were logical to their characters, not just making them to advance plot. The art at times seems a tad too busy on some pages, but spot on and beautiful on others. I had a chance to meet the K.S. crew at a con in Toronto, and they are really welcoming and down to earth lads.

Colm Feore at Stratford!
by mtoast
I got to see him as Iago in Othello in 1987. Amazing performance. Unfortunately, he was forced to break the fourth wall at one point, asking the audience to stop coughing. Sadly, a weekday matinee -- full of idiot high school field trippers -- took this request as an invitation to turn the cough-o-meter up to eleven. To this day, whenever I see him in a film I'm transported back in time. When he popped up in Thor, I felt a little tickle in the back of my throat.

Never saw Hamlet as Passive
by Hipshot
He was simply trapped in a situation with no good resolution. To avenge his father he would have to kill a king, with no evidence at all--a kingdom could fall and plunge into war, but at the very least he himself would not survive it. Without evidence, he needed to know his uncle was guilty. What proof? That a ghost said so? It could have been a delusion, and he knew it. Or a real ghost that intended to mislead him horribly. Until his uncle revealed himself by the reaction during the play-within-a-play, Hamlet can't be sure. And then what? He pretends madness to make himself look harmless (but still "knows a hawk from a handsaw") and once he is certain, acts swiftly if not instantly, knowing that he is surrounded by potential assassins. And he is right of course--his actions end up killing everyone in sight. "Hamlet" is a fabulous play and character...but I'd never say he was passive. He is philosopher, detective, swordsman, and avenger. Hell of a story.

I think more important than the age of the father is the financial well being and maturity of the father.
My husband was 45 when we had our youngest. He feels and looks younger than he is.
My husband and I are both nurses and the flu shot is mandatory in the health system that we work in. All three of our kids get it every year as well.

I never would have gotten thru my second pregnancy without zofran. Do what you gotta do!
When I was going through my divorce we tried that for the first few months. It was emotionally VERY hard for me. I didn't want the divorce in the first place and then I felt like I was getting...
I try to keep it around $100 per child. But I bought an American Girl doll for DD#2 so her gifts will be closer to $200.
My mom surprised us and bought my oldest DD the Pottery Barn pink kitchen. We've had it for 8 years and it still looks brand new. All three of my girls love it!...
Definitely go! She will be fine and will have such a wonderful experience. What a great opportunity!
Definitely take the whole family. Stay for an hour. I would never hear the end of it with my family if I only brought some of my kids.

I would put the two older girls upstairs, and then move the baby to one of the downstairs bedrooms when she is ready.
I agree with getting a few from the library to see if Mira will like them. My oldest didn't care for them but my middle can't get enough of them. They are great books!

NGC 7293, better known as the Helix nebula, is the nearest example of a planetary nebula, which is the eventual fate of a star, like our own Sun, as it approaches the end of its life. As it runs out of fuel, the star expels its outer envelope of gas outward to form a nebula like the Helix.

I guess the main thing that I try and remember and have learnt is to keep enjoying and being excited about the work you make. If it scares you, surprises you and makes you happy it might just be good. And to work hard but to also be patient and not measure yourself and the work based on a certain kind of success or recognition. Surround yourself with friends and colleagues who inspire you, and be generous in sharing your ideas with one another.

1st May 2014 Tutorials
Our studio is back after a month of holidays. Here are couple pictures from our tutorials today. Impressive progress from our students including a 3D printed potato-based fractal civilization (Andrei Jipa), a series of recursive bamboo structures for the Durga Puja festival (Dhiren Patel), an origami roof for the fashion week (Charlotte Yates), a spiky eco-retreat to meet the Sami people (Natasha Coutts), a temple for the Burning Man festival made of reciprocal plywood components (Joe Leach), a hypar tower for the Damyang Bamboo festival (William Garforth-Bless), a Pop-Up book drop pavilion (Ieva Ciocyte), a surreal Dali Museum in the Park (Lorna Jackson), a promenade concert in Hyde Park (Sarah Shuttleworth) and many more… We are so excited by the diversity of projects this year and the clear continuity between our brief2A and brief2B. Looking forward to the final crit on Thursday 15th May!
Philosophical Statement:
Inti: The Incan Sun God, his face portrayed as a gold disk from which rays and flames extended. Inti is the Sun and controls all that implies: warmth, light and sunshine. During the festival of Inti Ramyi, held during the Summer Solstice, Inti is celebrated with much drinking, singing and dancing - special statues are made of wood are burned at the end of the festival. This sculpture is an extended physical manifestation of this; decadent ritualism and a spiritual experience.
Timber Wave by Henry Turner
Philosophical Statement:
'Timber-Wave'; a plywood instillation emerging and crashing on to the desolate Black Rock Desert. This breaking wave a remnant of the retreating Quinn River, draws on imagery of both waves and dunes provoking thoughts of the original Burning Man Beach Parties and surfing counter culture. Simultaneously the design evokes concepts of the Silk Road as a mirage of a giant wave appearing from across the playa to be discover by wondering burners.
The design of the Timber Wave was driven by creating an interactive environment. In daytime, people are encourages to climb and search between the interwoven plywood structure. Open sun soaked communal areas create areas for group contemplation. Solitary areas for single travelers have also been designed as places of refuge from the intense sun, wind and dust storms hoping to encourage serendipity. At night the wave truly come alive as a monument to the sea. Bathed in varying blue tones of color the spectacular structure is a mysterious beacon within the dark playa.
Physical Statement:
'Timber-Wave' structure consists of 3 layers of 12 intersecting plywood ribbons. Each ribbon consists of a varying number of water bent plywood components con-caving and con-vexing together forming a rigid series of tensioned and compressed sections. The result is a homogeneous structure creating a beautiful ergonomically sized spaces. Each ribbon a series of circular penetrations in the form of an abstracted water pattern. Creating foot and hand holes for climbing as well as allowing dramatic shadows to be cast throughout the structure and across the playa. At night the penetrations allow the lighting of the instillation to spill across the playa and between the layers of the structure.

The Petal Hypothesis
The petal has long been a surround for the reproductive parts of the flower, its varied forms and designs attract numerous species of animals and insects, enabling its existence to grow and spread. As a result, the petal will not only encounter pollen of its own species, but also that of many differing plants.
Taking people as the pollen. This caravanserai will attract people both day and night, providing a space for play and discussion, encouraging communication, observation and interaction.The Petal Hypothesis sits expressively within its setting. Exposing the raw structure of the plywood 'petals by day and revealing the elaborate display of the EL wires by night.
Configured in a circular array, each 'petal' is construct from just two 'pods' which in themself only take 1 sheet of plywood to construct. Connected together to generate one '2d' curve, the end points then bend around to complete the monocoque structure.
These pods are then mirrored to generate the 'petal' form and anchored to the ground. The act of fixing the extreme widths and mirroring the pods minimises the natural flex within the 'pod' and enables it to be a strong physical structure.
In place of the EL wires, a cloth stress skin has been incorporated to the top tier of petals. This not only provides shading during the day but also absorbs the light from the EL wires and distributes it across the whole surface.
Observe – Sit around and within the 'petals' to observe the activities at its centre.
Inhabit – Climb the structure and occupy one of the many vantage points within the 'petals'
Connect – Share memories and congregate either on mass at its centre or privately within the petals
The Cloud
So easily can fun and playfulness be neglected within Architecture. My proposal stands as an embodiment of these aspects, creating an area of inclusive participation, a space that can be explored and is only complete when occupied.
Fallen from the sky and tied down in the middle of Black Rock City 'The Cloud' stands as a mirage for weary-eyed travellers from far and wide, a beacon of sanctuary that creates spaces that provide respite from the harsh conditions of the desert using permeable fabric to create a cool atmosphere diffusing light within daylight and emitting a soft glow from within in the evening.
Walking through the dessert after a long journey along the silk road 'The Cloud' emerges as a whimsical mirage. Mimicking the form of a cloud the easily recognisable form is transformed into Architecture; a sinuous billowing form allowing us to fulfil a childhood dream, walking on clouds.
The principle structure of the cloud is composed of hollow rolled steel tubes ,sandwiched between thick perforated fabric, strategically placed to withstand the extreme wind conditions as well as human interaction. Elevated from the floor these tubes are secured to the ground using the kandy kane re-bar method.
Keeping the form soft and playful so that not only is the installation safe but also malleable, responding to people climbing and walking it, bungee rope is securely looped over the steel tubes and threaded through the 'ground' fabric to hold it up, as illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
Interactivity is an integral part of the installation. Bringing to life the stranded cloud people are encouraged to explore the piece climbing in, over and around it, finding intricate crevasses that provide discreet hidden entrances to the inner cloud where an intimate social environment softly illuminated by the diffused daylight, providing an area of solace.

We just finished our last tutorials of the first term! Congratulations to all the students for the great three months and looking forward to the remaining two terms.
Students completed both briefs (brief01:systems and brief2A:festival) and are starting the case studies of events as part of our last brief (brief2B:realise).
Here are couple pictures of the projects we have seen during the last tutorials. Where do you suggest building the structures over the summer?
Merry Christmas & best wishes for the New Year!!

I have porcelain crowns on some of my top teeth. I have had problems with them falling out. This weekend I was eating something and bit down and I didn't know my tooth fell out – I bit down on it – it shattered and apparently I swallowed most of it. I had it done at my family dentist in 2004 and have been back there several times to have crowns re-cemented in. He usually doesn't charge me to re-cement but now he wants to charge me $1,100.00 for a new crown. I told him I would pay cost for the crown but that was it, that it should not have fallen out to start with. Is it common to have them fall out as much as mine have? Is this something that I have to pay for?
- Susan from Georgia
No, this shouldn't be expected, that a porcelain crown keeps falling out. If they're done right they won't ever fall out. But I can understand why your dentist wants to charge for this, because now he has to make it from scratch, and it's kind of expensive for him to do this.
What holds crowns in is the near parallelism of the way the tooth is prepared. The more parallel the tooth is prepared, the stronger is the retention. But if the tooth walls are made TOO parallel, there is a risk of what are called undercuts, and the crown won't fit at all. Different dentists have different levels of comfort with how parallel they will make their preparations. The less parallel they are made, the easier it is to fit the crown.
But then with all-porcelain crowns, they are also bonded to the teeth. And if they are properly bonded, they don't need a lot of retention in the design.
I'm suspecting that your dentist doesn't know how to bond porcelain crowns. They're supposed to be bonded to your tooth, and they get most of their strength from the bonding procedure. It sounds like your dentist has simply cemented it in instead of bonding, as that's the only reason I could think that an all-porcelain crown would just fall out like that.
Yes, I would say that your dentist should just replace this for no charge. But I don't believe he's legally required to do this, and if he has lots of these crowns falling out, I imagine he's getting tired of doing this for free, and it's hurting his bottom line.

I dont see how the content will be nerfed. The gear will get better but a guild still has to work it's way through Nax to get to Uldar. I can understand that once people are through all of Uldar and all geared up, this is easier..but, it's still an achievement. Why not just nerf their movement speed.
Removing content in a content driven game is stupid. Why not remove the heroic achievements after 2 guilds clear Nax to make those who did only heroics for for the achievemt and got the mount can feel good.
Also. Why does somebody DESERVE recognistion for doing something "challenging" in a game? They dont...They enjoyed themselves and got a pretty mount. Why should they remove the ability and challenge/motivation from up and coming guilds? It will be a daunting task to me and my guild even after uldar is released!

Tomato-Corn Salad
Lisa Romerein
Fresh corn is often so sweet and tender that there is no need to cook it. Prep Time: 15 minutes. Notes: Chef Bart Hosmer uses basil flowers in this dish. Just pull the flowers from the stalks and sprinkle them like confetti into the salad in place of (or in addition to) the chopped basil. They add a light, floral note.

USDA Ditches Food Pyramid for a Healthy Plate
The New Food Plate continued...
Other top-line advice accompanying the icon is less controversial:
- Balance calories by enjoying food but eating less, and by avoiding oversize portions.
- Eat more good stuff: Make half the plate fruit and vegetables, switch to nonfat or low-fat milk.
- Eat less bad stuff: Look for lower-sodium soups, breads, and frozen meals; drink water instead of sugary drinks.
In the fall, the USDA will launch a suite of interactive web-based tools including:
- Daily, personalized food plans.
- Daily food plans for kids and preschoolers.
- Daily food plans for new mothers and pregnant women.
- MyFoodapedia: information on food groups, calories, and food comparisons.
- Food Tracker: feedback on your food intake and physical activity
- Food Planner: a tool to plan meals that will help you reach personal goals.
(Test your nutrition knowledge.)
Food Pyramid History
The 2010-2011 dietary guidelines are neither the first nor the last Americans will see. Federal law requires the USDA and the Department of Health and Human Services to update the guidelines every five years.
But even before this mandate, the USDA has been issuing dietary advice. The first set of guidelines came in 1894, when Wilbur Olin Atwater, PhD, wrote a USDA Farmers' Bulletin suggesting that Americans should eat fewer fats and sugars, exercise more, and watch their calories.
Various USDA food guides through the 1950s stressed important foods that should serve as the foundation of a healthy diet. These guides took various approaches to make sure Americans ate enough of different kinds of foods to avoid malnutrition. By the 1970s, however, too little food was no longer a problem: Too much food was.
In 1977, a U.S. Senate committee published Dietary Goals for the United States. This revolutionary document stressed eating fewer of the foods linked to chronic diseases -- particularly fatty meats, cholesterol, fatty acids, sugars, and salt.
The USDA says it did not adopt these goals because they "were so different from usual food patterns." Others have blamed influence from the beef and dairy industries for delaying USDA action until 1979, when a watered-down version of the advice, the "Hassle-Free Guide to a Better Diet," advised more moderate intake of fats, sweets, and alcohol.
In 1980, the USDA put out its first official Dietary Guidelines for Americans. These guidelines continued to stress the foods that should form the foundation of a healthy diet. But in the early 1980s, the USDA began thinking more about the total diet, rather than nutrition basics.
By 1990, the guidelines began to promote eating patterns based on moderation and variety instead of on dietary restriction. In 1992, based on an icon already in use in Sweden, the USDA came out with its first Food Pyramid.
The base of the pyramid, suggesting the foods one should eat the most, was "bread, cereal, rice, and pasta." This changed with the 2005 "MyPyramid," which did away with the building-block approach but which many found far too busy and cluttered to be a useful tool.

Shakira asks for prayers during birth
Shakira has asked fans to pray for her after being admitted into hospital in Barcelona, where she is due to be induced and give birth to her first son
Shakira has asked her fans to pray for her during the birth of her first child.
The 35-year-old Colombian star has been admitted into hospital in Barcelona, where she is due to be induced and give birth to her baby boy with her 25-year-old boyfriend Gerard Pique.
The 'She Wolf' singer appealed to her fans via Twitter shortly after arriving at the Teknon clinic on Tuesday (22.01.13), writing: ''I'd like to ask you all to accompany me in your prayers on this very important day of my life. Shak''
She also posted the same content in Spanish and was immediately inundated with messages of support from her fans across the world, wishing her good luck.
A source previously told Spanish newspaper La Razon that the couple scheduled the birth so that FC Barcelona footballer Gerard could be present during their baby's arrival.
The insider also revealed that the singer had requested a female only medical team, who all signed confidentiality agreements, assist her during the birth.
The blonde beauty was said to be feeling ''increasing discomfort'' ahead of the birth and was complaining of ''abdominal pressure.''
Shakira has been dating soccer player Gerard for around two years and previously said he is the ''best thing'' to ever happen to her, until she got pregnant.
She said: ''This man is the best thing that could have happened in my life. And now the baby!''
Shakira only confirmed their relationship last year by posting a picture of them both together on Twitter and Facebook with a caption reading, ''I present to you my sunshine.'' in Spanish.
Last week the couple invited fans to join them at their virtual baby shower, where they can purchase essential baby gifts that will support UNICEF and benefit some of the world's most vulnerable babies.
The online baby shower engages social media fans by enabling them to join the popstar and her footballer beau in their virtual living room, where they can buy 'Inspired Gifts' such as mosquito nets, polio vaccines and baby-weighing scales that will be distributed to children and communities in some of the poorest corners of the globe.
After purchasing an 'Inspired Gift', fans will then receive a personal thank you message from the couple, and be able to view exclusive photos of them taken in December 2012 by Jaume Laiguana.

The free crystal ball online
In the past, many people questionned the Crystal Ball. Here are some of them.
The crystal ball readings during the past
12 January 1979
A young girl, Rebecca, was in love with a young man, Jim.
She asked the crystal ball:
"My dear crystal ball, do you think I need to tell Jim that I'm in love with him ?"
The crystal ball replied:
So the young lady met the young man and told him about her love.
Unfortunatly, Jim was already in couple withe Maria, another girl.
One week later, Rebecca was in love with another guy, Antonio.
She asked the crystal ball about what could she do:
"Crystal ball, do you think that maybe i could speak to Antonio about my love?"
The crystal ball said:
So Rebecca went to Antonio's house and told him about the fact that she was in love.
The man explain her that he was gay.
Two weeks later, Rebecca was again in love with a new man, John.
She asked the Crystal ball in these terms:
"Crystal ball, twice you told me to do things and at the end I felt stupid. This time, please don't make me crazy and tell me the true. Do you think i can speak about my love with John ?".
The crystal ball reply:
So Rebecca went to John's work, looked at him in the eyes, opened her mouth and let words explain her love.
One minute later, John was kissing Rebecca.
They lived old with lot's of children.

May 28 – Thousands of visitors have experienced the large-scale video installation at the Maltz Museum and more will have the chance as Spots of Light: To Be a Woman in the Holocaust is held over an extra week, ending its run Sunday, June 16. A production of the Museums Division, Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, Spots of Light is the first exhibition to focus exclusively on Jewish women and their experiences in the Holocaust. Images move and change before the visitor's eyes, giving historical material a new and contemporary feel and perspective. Through these women's initiative, creativity and courage, the exhibit demonstrates that human beings are strong enough, even in the most difficult of circumstances, to maintain those values which are the foundation of humanity: motherhood, friendship, faith and love.
The Maltz Museum added its own contributions to the exhibition. In To Be a Woman in the Holocaust: Cleveland Stories, produced exclusively for the Maltz Museum, area filmmaker Steven Hacker interviews several Northeast Ohio women survivors about their family's experience. Also included are artifacts on loan from the Illinois Holocaust Museum, including two women's uniforms worn by camp prisoners and precious items hidden by women and retrieved after the war. Additional artifacts from Cleveland survivors are regularly on display in the Museum's permanent collection, An American Story.
Admission to Spots of Light is included with general admission: $12 Adults; $10 Seniors (60+); $10 Students (12+, including college students); $5 Children (5-11); Maltz Museum Members and children under 5 years of age are admitted free. The Maltz Museum is open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday 11am – 5pm; Wednesday 11am – 9pm; and Saturday 12 – 5pm.

I am interested in getting Verizon DSL. I live in a major metropolitan area, and some friends 2 blocks down just moved to VZ DSL. However, the website says that I don't currently have DSL capability (dial up only!). I called VZ and the woman was very nice, but after taking down my information and saying that her computer said "inconclusive" she started to input a service date for install and then said that "NOW it says you can only get dial-up." I am very confused for two reasons: 1st, it obviously wasn't a simple "no-dsl-available" situation because it came back as "inconclusive" at first, 2nd, how is it that I live in a major major metro area serviced by VZ (Northern NJ) and my neighbors down the street can get DSL but not me? Could it have to do with the house I live in (one floor rental)? Could the house itself not be wired for DSL? (It has a phone jack, though I have no service hooked up to it) Is there anyone I can call that ISN't a sales rep that can actually tell me what the issue is? ping my phone line to check? Anything?! I can't take cablevision anymore! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
DSL's signal strength degrades based on distance. You need to be within 18,000 feet of the central office in order for the signal to be strong enough to work. And that 18,000 feet isn't straight line distance, it's the actual wire from the CO to your house, so it could wind around the neighborhood before it gets to you. Another thing that could affect you is if there is any type of fiber-optic connections between the office and you, this will also prevent you from getting DSL. The DSL signal doesn't work over fiber, just copper. At least, that is how it used to be...But there are a number of factors that can prevent you from having it while a neighbor 2 blocks away CAN. What you might want to do is check with your neighbors on the same side of the street as you. See if any of them have DSL. If they do, call Verizon back with your neighbor's phone number (or address if they don't have phone) and ask if they can check again.

Financial Support for Public Interest
Post-Graduate Fellowships
Loan Repayment
Job Search Expenses
Summer Fellowships
The Summer Public Interest Fellowship Program (SPIF) provides funds to all Yale students who need funding to work at government and nonprofit organizations. The law school provides fellowships of up to $6,000 for 12 weeks ($500 per week for up to 12 weeks) through SPIF. Five thousand dollars of this funding is guaranteed; student fundraising will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to the total $6,000 summer budget.
The Schell Center for International Human Rights provides many summer travel fellowships to support summer work abroad in international human rights.
The Ford Foundation Law School Public Interest Fellowship Program will support first- and second-year law students to have a substantive and transformative experience as summer interns with Ford Grantee Organizations. Giving students the opportunity to work in the field of public interest law, the program seeks to award highly motivated and accomplished students with an internship in a domestic or international Ford Foundation grantee organization whose work focuses broadly on legal analysis, litigation, and public policy advocacy. Working closely with lawyers and advocates, students will gain exposure to a variety of diverse settings and will be exposed to such topics as reproductive rights, civil rights, gay, lesbian, and transgender rights, immigrants' rights, prisoner and ex-offenders' rights, voting rights, children's rights, and other areas of concern with respect to social justice and equity.
The Ford Foundation will connect a total of 100 law school students from Harvard, New York University, Stanford, and Yale Law Schools to current grantee organizations both domestically and internationally to begin an exciting and new venture lasting ten weeks during Summer 2014. If selected, each of the Yale Law School students will receive a stipend over the summer as an intern in the field of public interest law, giving them the opportunity to have substantive and transformative experiences.
Click here for detailed instructions on how to apply.
The Mary McCarthy Fellowships provide funding for students' summer or brief post-graduate work in the public interest.
Post-Graduate Fellowships
Yale Law School Fellowships such as the Liman, Heyman, Bernstein, YLS Public Interest Fellowships, and Robina Fellowships provide funding to help students pursue their public service goals after graduation. The YLS Public Interest Fellowship program also supports recent YLS graduates for one year of full-time public interest work. An internship/clerkship at The International Court of Justice at The Hague and a YLS Fellowship at the Permanent Court of Arbitration at The Hague is also available.
More detailed information on these and other fellowship opportunities....
Loan Repayment
The Career Options Assistance Program (COAP) is one of the most generous and flexible loan forgiveness programs available at any law school.
Job Search Expenses
CDO has created TRI PI (Travel Reimbursement for Interviews in the Public Interest) which reimburses 2L & 3L students for travel expenses, up to $800, for public interest interviews.
Each year, the Career Development Office (CDO) pays the registration fees and travel expenses for any students wishing to participate in the Equal Justice Career Fair and Conference and the NYU Public Interest Career Fair. CDO also reimburses students for fax or telephone charges incurred in their search for a public interest job (excluding judicial clerkships).
Additional fellowships may also be available through Yale University.
