Creating a Culture of Peace!
Nicholas K Gattis / Director of Bands at Military and Global Leadership Academy at Marie G. Davis
During the summer of 2011 I was able to accompany a group of twenty students and three coworkers to Concordia Language Village near Bemidji, Minnesota for an Arabic language camp. Located at the Village is a World Inc. Peace Site where the phrase "May Peace Prevail on Earth" is represented in various languages. Before we returned home my colleagues and I decided to create one similar on our campus. Our Art teacher undertook this project alongside her students with support from teachers and donors. The Peace Garden was completed in the spring of 2013 with 25 languages represented and a display of student and teacher artwork.
Building upon last year's work we started this school year discussing with our classes about sustainability, service, and peace. In my previous post I noted how my high school class facilitated a peace activity with a first grade class based on the folk tale 'Stone Soup' incorporating how working together can create peace. That lesson promotes peace, arts integration, literacy, creativity, and so many other wonderful skills. Furthermore, as September 21 approaches we are celebrating the International Day of Peace by asking our students their definition of peace and, 'what will you do to make peace?'
The student responses were honest and heartfelt. They demonstrated the true spirit of a peaceful lifestyle and our diversity is celebrated throughout the video. As a global leadership academy we included messages from our foreign language teachers so we may reach as many people outside our campus as possible. It is a great feeling to be able to work with so many teachers who are united in this cause and willing to strive to provide a diverse education for our students.
Please take a moment from your busy day and enjoy our International Day of Peace message. Share with your friends. We would like to have another school send us a message in return!
See what peace in means in various languages to our friends over at Military and Global Leadership Academy at Marie G. Davis, as we commemorate International Day of Peace 2013!
VALDESE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Burke County Schools
Becoming 21st Century Learners
In today's world we hear much about teaching our students about 21st century skills in education. Monique St. Louis and her instructional technology facilitator, Debbie Dale, are doing just that by infusing the fifth grade Common Core and Essential Standards into real world digital technology projects at Valdese Elementary School. They are creating an environment that teaches students to think for themselves, have a sense of global awareness, and gain respect for other people's cultures and ways of thinking from around the world.
Last December, a group of individuals consisting of students, teachers, instructional technology facilitators, and principals from a prominent school in Pakistan, Heavy Industries Taxila Education City (HITEC), visited with fifth-graders at Valdese Elementary School. HITEC is a campus comprised of several schools, colleges and institutions. Grades range from Pre-K to University level. The visitors have been working with schools in Ashe and Watauga County over the last two years. The project is funded by the U.S. Department of State and Appalachian State University is implementing it. Arshard Bashir, currently an ASU doctoral student, is leading this international effort.
The HITEC visitors engaged fifth-grade students at Valdese Elementary with a presentation on their culture, which was also shared virtually via a web-conference with Clyde Erwin Elementary Magnet School (Jacksonville, NC) facilitated by their Science Technology Engineering Math (STEM) teacher, Cathy Dalimonte. This meeting also allowed Mrs. St. Louis, Mrs. Dalimonte and their students to collaborate with the educational visitors from Pakistan on a Global Ecosystem project.
Students from around the world used technology to plan and develop projects on the ecosystems found in their region. Regions represented for this project range from the deciduous forests in the foothills of NC to the coast of NC, to the swamps of South Florida, to the rain forest of Vietnam, to the biomes found in Pakistan. This project will allow students to learn with the world not just about it.
Monique St.Louis is a fifth grade teacher at Valdese Elementary School in Burke County. She is coordinating with Dr. Bashir another visit of 15 students and 9 teachers and staff from Pakistan in November. Like the ecosystems project, St.Louis and Dalimonte are also preparing a globalized weather unit for 5thgraders.
TRAPHILL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Wilkes County Schools
Read Around the World
March 8, 2013
Have you ever traveled over 75,000 miles…in one day?! The first graders at Traphill Elementary School (Wilkes County, NC) have! Virtually!
To celebrate Read Across America, first grade teacher Kristi Day planned an unforgettable experience, Read Around the World. Mrs. Day knows the importance of giving her young students global experiences that expose them to cultures, races, and places from around the globe.
The idea began last year after Mrs. Day asked a friend who was deployed to Afghanistan to Skype in and read a book to her class. It grew from there! Last year students were involved in nine Skype calls. This year (thanks to the help of friends, family, and World View scholars!) students were able to talk with, read to, and listen to eighteen people spanning five continents and 75,464 miles.
These calls began first thing Friday morning and continued well into the night. To truly experience time differences, the students brought sleeping bags and spent the night at school. In between Skype calls, they watched Dr. Seuss movies, danced with the Wii, and created with Legos. The local Chick-fil-a donated delicious chicken nuggets for dinner.
The first call of the day was with a class of students in England, who were also celebrating reading. They were dressed as various book characters. Later, students listened to "The Giving Tree", which the caller (Avital) translated from Hebrew. A class of 2nd and 3rd graders in Mexico City read the students Dr. Seuss books! A translator in New Zealand came from the "future" (or 18 hours) and taught the students how to sign the alphabet after reading "Rainbow Fish". Abigail (a WorldView scholar in India) was dressed in traditional Indian attire as she read "All the Places to Love". These first graders practiced saying hello, goodbye, and thank you in Hebrew, Spanish, French, Japanese, Arabic, Danish, Czech, Vietnamese, and Polish!
6 of the 18 volunteers are from WorldView's Global WebFriends Program (through UNC-Chapel Hill). 14 of the 18 calls were international. But the students did not know that beforehand! Along with a student-signed copy of their assigned book, Mrs. Day sent each caller a list of clues about their location. Before they read the book, the volunteers read the clues to the students, as they used globes and maps to find the mystery location!
After making (and eating!) their own pancakes, green eggs, and ham, the first graders at Traphill headed home with an experience they will never forget.

SHADY GROVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Davie County Schools
First grade students at Shady Grove Elementary School in Davie County have a new international pen pal thanks to the on-line, international postcard exchange program, www.postcrossing.com.
About once a week, students buckle themselves in and prepare to virtually travel around the world. Their first postcrossing location is Roth, Germany, which was assigned to them randomly by postcrossing. A satellite view of Google Maps is projected in their classroom, and they imagine they are taking off in a rocket or a jet. They "flew" to Roth and explored the geography of the country, including an important piece of information to the students – Roth's proximity to the beach!
The class's first pen pal in Roth enjoys art and museums, so the students sent him a postcard with an image of an exhibit at the South Eastern Center for Contemporary Art in nearby Winston-Salem. They also asked him questions about his life in Germany that make faraway places more relatable, like whether or not there is a McDonald's in Roth. Each virtual trip will build upon this first experience as students think more critically about the people in new places they explore. This international experience will be followed by many more in this first grade class, and will hopefully prepare the students to be lifelong international explorers!

POPLIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Union County Public Schools
Students in seven classes at Poplin Elementary are participating in the Global Children's Challenge (GCC), a worldwide health initiative designed to instill in children the habit and importance of daily exercise for the rest of their lives. During the challenge, every child receives a pedometer to track their daily step count and to measure their activity levels against the goals they are encouraged to achieve. Their daily steps in the real world take them on an amazing web-based adventure in online. At each virtual location, students learn about the history, geography and culture.
The students have a daily goal of 10,000 to 15,000 steps. Fourth Grade Teacher Melissa Kite said, "The children are so excited to have the pedometers to track their steps each day! We are logging our individual daily steps as well as our combined classroom daily steps. Then as we enter our steps, we travel around the globe through an interactive website. We have now left the continent and have moved onto the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, and Angel Falls, Venezuela. We also have also visited two separate stops in the Amazon Jungle in Venezuela, and we are now in Cape Town, South Africa." Fourth grader Rosy Francis said "I want to go around the world before it is over." Francis's goal is 20,000 steps a day.
From geography and social studies to history and technology, students are learning about the world as they challenge themselves by seeing how many steps they can take each day.
Beth Medlin is the Media Coordinator at Poplin Elementary School in Union County.
The Global Children's Challenge is becoming a popular activity among World View Partner schools. In the winter 2012 issue of Think Global, Richlands Elementary in Onslow County was featured participating in the GCC as well. Is your school participating in the GCC or another engaging global event? Let us know about it so we can spread the word!
MORGAN SCHOOL, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools
The vision of Morgan School is to become the finest comprehensive separate day school for students with serious emotional and behavioral disabilities. An important part of our vision is the strong belief that exceptional children are capable of learning new behaviors and academic skills that will foster success in school, society, and the global world in which we live.
One way we strive to do this is by holding an annual International Festival. This year we set aside the entire month of February for students and staff to engage in international activities. Each day students announced an international fact, and a weekly Quiz Bowl was held with globally themed prizes. Grade level teams created display boards and tables forstudents to take a tour around the world. Students also heard from two Peace Corps volunteers and participated in a question and answer session about the countries in which they served.
The culminating event was perhaps the most exciting for our students. Parents, guests, staff, and students arrived in the gymnasium for the International Festival where they checked in with their passports. Students were able to tour the world and collect passport stamps from the countries they visited. Each student received a global gift bag full of fun and educational treats. Last but not least, we held a globally-minded "In Your Face" pie throwing contest! Throughout the month of February, the Global Professional Learning Community (PLC) collected change for Heifer International, a global organization focused on community development. Students were asked to place change in the jar of the staff member they would like to see get a pie in the face. The Global PLC raised $71 in change for Heifer International through this contest, proving that students really can "change" the world!

JOYNER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Wake County Public Schools
A team of teachers and staff from Joyner Elementary School recently returned from Haiti. What began with a guest speaker two years ago has evolved into a three year, school-wide initiative and joint partnership with parents and members of the community to reach out across borders and help those in need.
The journey began in 2010 when the third graders wanted to "Help Heal Haiti." The students investigated and decided there was an urgent need for clean water and hygiene items. They brainstormed an action plan with ways to help. Students donated supplies and made over 400 hygiene kits, but this was just the beginning. Joyner families participated in fundraising events to provide life-saving water filtration systems, first-aid kits, play ground equipment, school kits, and vitamins. Through Convoy of Hope, an international non-profit organization, twelve Joyner teachers and staff united with parents and community members to deliver the supplies, hugs, hope, and love to orphans in Port Au Prince.
The Haiti Team Members left Raleigh last summer full of hope and anticipation. They traveled to orphanages, teaching about hygiene and using clean water. Water filtration systems were set up, clothes and much needed medical supplies were handed out, and beautiful children were given the love and attention that all kids need and deserve.
Upon returning to Raleigh, the team was energized and excited to integrate their experiences from the trip into lessons and learning opportunities for their students. It was apparent that Joyner Elementary was not ready to end its relationship with Haiti. A three year commitment with Convoy of Hope was established and new lessons to enrich the students' global awareness and understanding were developed.
This year, events raised money to buy beds and mattress for two orphanages. Students donated pillows, sheets, towels, and hygiene kits. A new group, consisting of some veteran team members and those inspired to join, headed back to Port Au Prince to continue Joyner's work there. They returned motivated to do more, eager to share their experiences in Haiti, and ready to return next summer. Go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6fYYq4Bz90 to see Joyner staff in Haiti.

MOUNT MOURNE SCHOOL: AN IB WORLD SCHOOL, Iredell-Statesville Schools
By: Preston Spencer | Mooresville Tribune
Published: July 27, 2012
Boen Nutting, Ph.D., principal of Mount Mourne I.B.O. World School, keeps a quote from author Kobi Yamada taped to the inside of her desk that reads, "Some experiences simply do not translate, you have to go to know."
Nutting said never has the message ever rang truer than on a recent two-week trip she and Michael Thier, coordinator of South Iredell High School's International Baccalaureate (IB) program, made to Senegal to participate in a global education conference.
The conference, sponsored by World View, which was established in 1998 by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to foster communication between cultures and education systems, brought together 19 educators from across North Carolina to learn how a different culture educates its people.
"One of the main ideas of IB is that we are charged with teaching peace within our school," said Nutting. "We're teaching children about the world and how people all over the world live differently. … It's hard to teach the world if you haven't seen much of the world, so (the trip was) an opportunity to open our eyes."
Thier said the conference, held June 18 to June 30 in and around Dakar, Senegal, typically began each day with a lecture and then a practical activity or trip that related to the lecture. He recalled one speaker, Senegalese rapper Thiat, also a co-founder of a youth-led grassroots social movement in the country that translates to "Enough is Enough," who brought with him a spirit that Thier said he wished he could instill in his own students.
"He was very inspiring because he gave a very clear sense of how the youth developed so much political value in (Senegal's last) election," said Thier. "They basically toppled a president that was corrupt. They proved that democracy works. That's a passion and optimism about voting that I would love to see in 18-year-old voters."
The World View group, the participants of which ranged from a kindergarten teacher to a community college administrator, made several visits to elementary and middle schools in a rural setting, a business university and interacted with several Senegalese educators and families. Thier said he met with several native artists on the trip and was planning on bringing their technique and perspective into Iredell County classrooms in the next year.
"I can make that connection, even if we do it online, with my art teacher at South Iredell and this well-known, famous artist and they can interact with Skype," Thier said. "This opens up new horizons for my art teacher."
The goal of the trip, Thier said, is to raise the overall level of global education in Iredell-Statesville Schools. He said Nutting and he had "idea after idea after idea" about how to use their experience and would spend time this summer developing strategies to teach what they learned.
"You sit down and you try to say, 'How can I talk about this experience and how it's changed my life?' And it's hard to sum that up," Nutting said. "It will be difficult for us to convey that. One thing that Thier and I talked about is something called the cultural iceberg, and if you teach children only about flags, festivals and food, then you really aren't teaching them about someone else's culture. There's so much more to that iceberg that's under the water."

SHADY GROVE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, Davie County Schools
What time is it in Delhi? Students at Shady Grove Elementary can tell you! The cafeteria walls are lined with clocks that are set to the times of several different countries around the world. Their Kindergarten classes check the weather in India each day and compare the climate to ours here in the United States. In the Art Department, the students are creating masterpieces that reflect the countries that each grade level focuses on throughout the curriculum. The art teacher traveled with World View to Brazil, and her 5th graders designed illustrations of Brazilian Capoeira (a tradition of dance mixed with martial arts) to be put on display during the annual 'Art in the Garden' show. Students are also participate in a project where they mail their handmade art trading cards to other students around the world. Principal Gildein traveled to Costa Rica recently with several teachers and students, and the school is preparing for their upcoming trips to Rome and Paris this spring.

JAMES SPRUNT COMMUNITY COLLEGE, Kenansville, NC
In 2006, World View offered a trip to China for North Carolina Educators. Gerald Waller, an Electrical/Electronics Instructor with a career in the movie industry in Wilmington, NC, went on the trip to record it through video and pictures. When he returned, he created a video titled "Faces of China". This video allowed Gerald to share the trip with students, faculty, and staff. Gerald has also documented other World View trips to India, Brazil, and Honduras. These videos led to the creation of the Faces of the World website at http://www.ncccglobal.com. This website contains global video clips, pictures, and lesson plans. When the college redesigned its Success and Study Skills course (ACA 115), a globalization assignment was added which requires students to view two of the videos and write a reaction paper on one of the videos. Through these videos, students are able to explore countries' education, culture, and history. The video "Faces of India 2011," from a World View trip in January 2011, was shown during International Education Week at the college.
For more information on the website or how the videos have been incorporated into the ACA course you can visit www.ncccglobal.com.
JOHNSTON COMMUNITY COLLEGE, Smithfield, NC
At Johnston Community College in Smithfield, a variety of resources came together to provide a unique opportunity for students to connect to the rhythms of West Africa and develop a deeper appreciation of the cultural traditions of Ghana. In 2009, fine arts instructor Dennis deJong received a $750 World View and UNC Center for Global Initiatives grant award to add the module "African Drumming – Exploring Traditionalistic Music" to the course Music Appreciation 110. The module provided opportunities for students to hear and explore music outside the Western musical perspective. By combining the resources from the World View-CGI grant and special equipment funds from the Windley Endowment, ground work was laid to begin a World Percussion Ensemble at the college. Under the leadership of Ibrahim Sylla, renowned djembe (skin-covered drum) artist, this new ensemble grew to spotlight North Carolina students on authentic percussion instruments of Ghana and gained a campus and community-wide following. Driving rhythms and polished grooves have become the ensembles' hallmark. As evident in the remarks of student Nathaniel Jones, "In Ibrahim's class, we developed a profound appreciation for a means of expression much older than the barriers of language. When the rhythms would lock, he'd smile, and that's when we knew we were a part of another culture's praxis that can only be felt and heard. He deserves credit for everything he did for his students."
For more information about this global project, contact Johnston Community College Music Program Coordinator Dennis de Jong at email@example.com
Students, teachers, and administration across Duplin County are "traveling around the world" by imbedding global concepts and a global culture into daily instruction. One only has to walk through the hallways to see that staff and students at North Duplin Elementary School have fully embraced the Global Schools concept, providing a model for the county and region. Brightly colored bulletin boards fill the hallways with sports, animals, native dress and customs of continents and countries. A display in the gymnasium teaches students common greetings from around the world. A "Hall of Continents" displaying flags from various countries and "World Wall" lend to the ambiance of the building. One teacher noted how students are quick to point out "their" adopted country's flag and continent as they travel down the "Hall of Continents." "We live in a global society. As a school system, we want to bring the globe, the world to our students," explains Superintendent Austin Obasohan. "Around the world students are learning about the United States. We must do the same for our students to prepare them to live and work in the world today." As one teacher stated, "There is much truth embedded within the lyrics of the song, 'It's a Small World After All.'"

Antonio J. Colorado Laguna (born September 8, 1939) is a lawyer and politician from New York City, U.S.. He served as Secretary of State of Puerto Rico and Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico for the administration of Rafael Hernández Colón.
Colorado attended elementary and high school in Puerto Rico. In 1962, he earned a bachelor's degree from Boston University and three years later graduated from the University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras with a Juris Doctor. In 1966, he earned a master of Laws from the Harvard Law School and was admitted to the Puerto Rican bar. He is a member of Phi Sigma Alpha Fraternity.[1]
From 1966 to 1968 he served as legal tax adviser to the Economic Development Administration of Puerto Rico, and from 1968 to 1969 he served as the executive assistant to the economic development administrator of Puerto Rico. He began a law practice in 1969, and became a member of the Puerto Rico Tax Reform Commission Subcommittee in 1973.
In the late 1970s, in addition to his law practice, he lectured at both the University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras and the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico. In 1985, then Governor of Puerto Rico, Rafael Hernández Colón, appointed Colorado to the post of administrator of economic development. From 1990 to 1992 he served as Secretary of State for Puerto Rico.
In 1992, Colorado was appointed Resident Commissioner to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Jaime B. Fuster, who was appointed associate justice of the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico. In the United States House of Representatives Colorado tried to address problems faced by Puerto Ricans, such as crime and drug abuse, and requested additional medicaid support for the Island.
He was unsuccessful in his 1992 bid for election and returned to San Juan, Puerto Rico. He currently serves as Executive Director of the Local Redevelopment Authority for the former Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Ceiba, Puerto Rico, a facility that was abandoned by the United States Navy after naval shelling practices ended in nearby Vieques, Puerto Rico.

Lucid Intent? No
This dream has been viewed 198 times.
I'm in my apartment and my mother calls me on my phone, we try to talk, but the phone keeps dropping her call. She calls back a few times, but the phone continues to drop the call. Then the phone's service carrier changes from AT&T to BarronrooServices and the phone starts to spaz out by the screen showing solid colors, and not the normal background. The colors keep flickering and the phone shuts off, dead. I talk to my boyfriend on Skype and he tells me there is nothing he can do, its not happening to his phone. I go out of my apartment with my dead phone in hand, and end up in a long hallway. I see other people sitting on benches playing with their phones, and they are having the same problems I had with mine. I end up walking down the hallway, which seems to never end. Like a never ending hallway, where the more you walk, the exit is farther away. I look out a window and see my mother driving down the street, and see her get into a car wreck.
I start running down the hallway and the exit finally comes closer and I exit outside the building, and am on the roof. There are stairwells all around me, and people going up and down them. I end up going down one of the stairwells and there are people ahead of me walking slowly, I ask if they can let me through, I need to get to the ground level and they tell me to wait my turn. I end up at a landing and take another stairwell to the ground floor. I walk through a doorway and end up in a grassy field, that is a maze. There are no doorways, allowing me to navigate the maze, so I end up climbing over the wall, and notice behind me there is doorway. I wonder to myself why I didn't notice it before I climb over the wall. I continue climbing over walls and trying to exit the maze, but its seemingly endless and just goes on forever.
End of line
Additional Comments:
2014 will be a very turbulent year for me, a lot of changes will happen. One major change is the fact that I will be moving into an apartment with my significant other, and we are relocating.

Jason Segel makes his first foray into animation in Despicable Me, providing the voice of Vector, a super-villanous nerd and the nemesis of Steve Carell's Gru.
He joins a cast that includes grande dame Julie Andrews as well as iCarly's Miranda Cosgrove as Margo, the eldest of three orphans.
The actor and musician is shaping up as the crown prince of bromance with guy-centric roles ins the comedies Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and I Love You, Man.
He was Seth Rogen's dopes-smoking buddy Jason in Knocked Up, the dumped composer Peter in Sarah Marshall and the man-date of Paul Rudd in I Love You, Man.
Born in Los Angeles, he had his first taste of acting at summer camp when he competed in a talent show - encouraged by his brother - singing Castle on a Cloud from Les Misérables.
At high school, he was a successful basketball player but wanted to act, taking to the boards at local theatre productions at the Palisades Playhouse in California.
Segel's big break was the role of suburban Detroit student "Freak" Nick Andopolis in the short-lived comedy drama Freak and Geeks. It was cancelled but Segel did hook up with director Judd Apatow.
Roles followed in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and he also made his big screen debut in the 1998 college comedy Can't Hardly Wait as the "watermelon guy".
Over the years he had minor roles in Slackers and Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny before Apatow cast him in the comedy Knocked Up.
In Forgetting Sarah Marshall he had to perform a full-frontal nude scene ("I won't get a date anymore, they won't be satisfied with what they saw.") and had to play the drums for I Love You, Man.
He also co-wrote most of the soundtrack for Get Him To The Greek which was performed by the fictional band Infant Sorrow
Recent work includes his first voice job, providing the spleen emitted by wannabe supervillain - and Steve Carell's nemesis - Vector in Despicable Me.

At Least 14 Killed in Second Volgograd Suicide Bombing

VOLGOGRAD, December 30 (RIA Novosti) – A fatal bomb explosion ripped apart a trolleybus in Volgograd on Monday morning, killing at least 14 people and injuring 28, in the second terrorist attack in the southern Russian city in less than 24 hours.
Several of the wounded, who officials said included a six-month-old infant, are in serious condition.
Investigative Committee spokesman Vladimir Markin said that investigators believe a male suicide bomber carried out the attack, which he said was linked to another fatal bombing in the city on Sunday afternoon.
Authorities believe the first explosion, which killed 17 people and injured more than 40 at the Volgograd-1 railway station, was also the work of a suicide bomber.
Markin said that remains of both suspected bombers, which were recovered at the scenes, are undergoing DNA testing.
Monday's blast marks the third such attack in Volgograd in two months, and comes just weeks before Russia is due to host the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in February in the city of Sochi.

The bomb detonated in a trolleybus, packed with morning commuters, at about 8:10 a.m. (0410 GMT), the Investigative Committee said.
Television footage filmed at the scene near a market in the city's Dzerzhinsky district showed debris strewn across the street around the blackened shell of the trolleybus, its roof blown outward by the explosion.
"I left the house and heard a loud bang and screams of people," an eyewitness told television channel Rossiya-24.
"I saw what had happened. At first I didn't realize that it was a trolleybus, it was completely destroyed. Everything was blown out, not only the glass but even the walls. People ran."
State television said the force of the blast also blew out the windows of the nearby houses.
Local resident Sergei Stukalov told RIA Novosti that passengers began getting off buses and trams and walked to work after hearing about the attack.
Major Terror Attacks of 21st Century
Major Terror Attacks of 21st Century
Officials were forced to quell rumors of additional bombings after reports appeared on some social media pages about other explosions in the city.
"It's panic," said regional Interior Ministry spokeswoman Svetlana Smolyaninova.
Alarm briefly spread to Moscow, when reports emerged that Red Square had been briefly evacuated after a woman dropped a bag on the ground and ran away. Russian tabloid LifeNews said that police caught and detained the woman, who it claimed was mentally ill.
President Vladimir Putin has ordered a tightening of security throughout the country after the attacks. He met with the heads of the Federal Security Service and Interior Ministry on Monday, sending FSB chief Alexander Bortnikov to Volgograd to help handle the aftermath.
Putin also asked for daily reports from the National Anti-Terrorism Committee on measures to bolster security in Volgograd, a committee spokesman told journalists.
World leaders and organizations condemned the bombings. The head of the European Union's delegation in Russia, Vygaudas Usackas, said that he was shocked to learn of the second attack, adding: "I condemn the latest bombing in strongest possible terms and trust that organizers will be brought to justice."
Putin has expressed his condolences to families of the blast victims, but has yet to make a more detailed address about the attacks.
Authorities in Volgograd on Sunday announced three days of mourning at the start of New Year in memory of the victims of the first attack. The government will also pay compensation to relatives of the victims.
Families of each person killed will receive 1 million rubles ($305,000), and between 200,000 to 400,000 rubles ($6,000 to $12,200) will be paid to the families of injured people, Emergency Situations Ministry head Vladimir Puchkov said.
Terrorist incidents have persisted in southern Russia despite the authorities' efforts to step up security precautions ahead of the Olympics, which open on February 7 and are a major prestige project for Putin and Russia.
Sochi is located about 430 miles (690 kilometers) from Volgograd, formerly known as Stalingrad, which remains best remembered for the grueling siege it endured during World War II.
Six people were killed and 37 injured in another terrorist attack in Volgograd in late October, when a bomb carried by a young woman from the southern republic of Dagestan went off while she was traveling on a crowded commuter bus.
On Friday, a car bomb killed three people in the city of Pyatigorsk, which is 530 kilometers south of Volgograd and 270 kilometers east of Sochi.
Countries with greatest risk of terrorism
Countries with greatest risk of terrorism
The cities blighted by the latest attacks are located in and near the North Caucasus, a volatile multiethnic region that suffers frequent attacks on officials, police and civilians by local Islamist militant groups.
The violence is rooted in a separatist struggle in the unruly republic of Chechnya in the early 1990s, which has evolved into an Islamist insurgency that has spread to neighboring predominantly Muslim republics, particularly Dagestan, Ingushetia and Kabardino-Balkaria.
Most of the militants responsible for terrorist attacks in Russia over the last decade – including female suicide bombers who have taken part in 20 attacks claiming at least 780 lives since June 2000 – have come from Dagestan.

- grinolssonIs the Mass Population Transfer of Muslims Needed in Russia?10:18, 30/12/2013As an American, I find the Islamic ideology so outrageous and scandalous to both World and American values that it is time for the United States to educate people what this ideology is about. They believe in a conceptual nation called "Ummah Islam" or the Nation of Islam. They owe no allegiance to any other nation and have the right to lie and deceive in the promotion of their ideology. Their citizenship is called "brotherhood" because women are excluded. The ideology cloaks itself under "religious protection" while maintaining both a political objective (sharia law) and a military force, called (jihad). They have infiltrated Western media sources including this very newspaper - The New York Times.
Saudi Arabia is one of the most dangerous provinces of "Ummah Islam" the world has ever known. They, along with Qatar finance Sunni (jihadists) in Syria and around the world for the expansion of their ideology. Muslims all read the same book called the Qur'an and from that beginning, we see horrific violence against secular and Christian value secular nations from the United States, Russia, the Central African Republic, Nigeria, Indonesia, Darfur, Sudan, Somalia, and the list goes on and on and on. In the Re-Conquest of Europe not only did Europe have to repopulate their nations but they only peace they found with Islam was a mass population transfer of Muslims to Africa. The great Islamic Captain Barbarossa came to Europe and transported them. In the name of Peace, isn't is time for Russia to do the same?

Chapter 2: Definition of Child for Citizenship and Naturalization
A. Definition of Child
The definition of "child" for citizenship and naturalization differs from the definition used for other parts of the INA. [1] See INA 101(b) and INA 101(c). The INA provides two different definitions of "child."
One definition of child applies to approval of visa petitions, issuance of visas, and similar issues.
See INA 101(b).
The other definition of child applies to citizenship and naturalization. [3] See INA 101(c).
The most significant difference between the two definitions of child is that a stepchild is not included in the definition relating to citizenship and naturalization. Although a stepchild may be the stepparent's "child" for purposes of visa issuance, the stepchild is not the stepparent's "child" for purposes of citizenship and naturalization. A stepchild is ineligible for citizenship or naturalization through the U.S. citizen stepparent, unless the stepchild is adopted and the adoption meets certain requirements. [4] See Section C, Adopted Child [12 USCIS-PM H.2(C)].
In general, a child for the citizenship and naturalization provisions is:
An unmarried person under 21 years of age; and
The biological, legitimated, [5] A child can be legitimated under the laws of the child's residence or domicile, or under the law of the father's residence or domicile. See INA 101(c). A person's "residence" is his or her place of general abode and principal, actual dwelling place without regard to intent. A person's "domicile" refers to a person's legal permanent home and principal establishment, to include an intent to return if absent. In most cases, a person's residence is the same as a person's domicile. or adopted son or daughter of a U.S. citizen.
In addition to meeting the definition of child, the child must also meet the particular requirements of the specific citizenship or naturalization provision, which may include references to birth in wedlock or out of wedlock, and which may require that certain conditions be met by 18 years of age, instead of 21. [6] See Chapter 3, United States Citizens at Birth (INA 301 and 309) [12 USCIS-PM H.3]. See Chapter 4, Automatic Acquisition of Citizenship after Birth (INA 320) [12 USCIS-PM H.4]. See Chapter 5, Child Residing Outside of the United States (INA 322) [12 USCIS-PM H.5].
B. Legitimated Child [7] See INA 101(c).
The law of the child's residence or domicile, or the law of the father's residence or domicile, is the relevant law to determine whether a child has been legitimated. If the father or child had various residences before the child reached 18 or 21 years of age (depending on the applicable provision), then all the relevant laws of the places of residence must be considered.
A child is considered the legitimated child of his or her parent if:
The child is legitimated in the United States or abroad under the law of the child's residence or domicile, or under the law of the child's father's residence or domicile; [8] See INA 101(a)(33), which defines the term "residence" as the "place of general abode." The place of general abode of a person means his or her "principal, actual dwelling place in fact, without regard to intent."
The child is legitimated as such before he or she reaches 16 years of age (except for certain cases where the child may be legitimated before reaching 18 years of age); [9] See INA 309. See INA 101(b)(1)(E)(ii) and INA 101(b)(1)(F)(ii). and
The child is in the legal custody of the legitimating parent or parents at the time of the legitimation. [10] See INA 101(c)(1).
An officer reviews the specific facts of a case when determining whether a child has been legitimated accordingly and to determine the appropriate citizenship provision.
C. Adopted Child
An adopted child means that the child has been adopted through a full, final, and complete adoption. [11] See 8 CFR 320.1. See 8 CFR 322.1. This includes certain siblings of adopted children who are permitted to be adopted while under 18 years of age. [12] See INA 101(b)(1)(E)(ii).
A child is an adopted son or daughter of his or her U.S. citizen parent if the following conditions are met:
The child is adopted in the United States or abroad;
The child is adopted before he or she reaches 16 years of age (except for certain cases where the child may be adopted before reaching 18 years of age); [13] See INA 101(b)(1)(E)(ii) and INA 101(b)(1)(F)(ii). and
The child is in the legal custody of the adopting parent or parents at the time of the adoption. [14] See INA 101(c)(1).
In general, the adoption must:
Be valid under the law of the country or place granting the adoption;
Create a legal permanent parent-child relationship between a child and someone who is not already the child's legal parent; and
Terminate the legal parent-child relationship with the prior legal parent(s). [15] See Adjudicator's Field Manual, Chapter 21.15, Self Petitions by Parents of U.S. Citizens.
D. Orphan [16] See INA 101(b)(1).
In general, the definition for adopted children applies to adopted orphans. USCIS, however, does not consider an orphan adopted if any of the following conditions apply:
The foreign adoption was not full and final;
The foreign adoption was defective; or
An unmarried U.S. citizen parent or a U.S. citizen parent and spouse jointly did not see and observe the child in person prior to or during the foreign adoption proceedings. [17] See 8 CFR 320.1. See 8 CFR 322.1.
If the orphan is not considered adopted:
The child must be must be readopted in the United States; or
The child must be adopted while under 16 years of age and must have been residing in the legal custody of the adopting parent or parents for at least two years. [18] See INA 101(b)(1)(E).
In all cases, the condition that the child must have been residing in the legal custody of the adopting parent or parents is not required if the child has been battered or subject to extreme cruelty by the adopting parent or by a family member of the adopting parent residing in the same household.

Tom Brady idolizes Dwight Freeney, sort of
|11.30.11 at 3:12 pm ET
FOXBORO — Tom Brady won't be facing his old friend Peyton Manning this week, as Manning is getting his neck X-rayed to determine if he will play again, either this year or in 2012.
But he will be facing another old nemesis in a Colts uniform – perennial Pro Bowl defensive end Dwight Freeney.
"I've played Dwight Freeney a bunch," Brady said Wednesday. "I wish he was out this week. He's in there again. He's a phenomenal player. If I could be a defensive end, I'd be like him."
As a matter of Brady has faced Freeney seven times and the results indicate that Brady's offensive line has done a pretty fair job of protecting him. In those seven games, Freeney recorded just three sacks, two solo tackles and two assisted tackles.
"Robert Mathis on the other side, both those guys can really wreak havoc," Brady continued. "They strip sack. Coach said Freeney has 99 career sacks and 43 forced fumbles. So, almost half the time he sacks you, he strips the ball from you. He's a great player. They've got [defensive back] Jerraud Powers, I really like the way he plays. I think they have some very good defensive players."
All of this, Brady realizes, comes with one huge caveat – zero wins in 11 games.
"When you're having a season like they're having, no one wants to be in that situation but I'll tell you this, they play hard," Brady added. "They have a lot of pride. They've been in a lot of close games. They haven't won them but they're in them.
"We have to go out there and try to play really well, play more consistent, kind of like we did last week. We played more consistent than we had the previous week and we've got to go out and try to play very consistent this week, too."

The Roosevelt University Department of Psychology offers undergraduate and graduate programs targeted to meet the needs of today's complex society. As a prominent Chicago psychology school with campuses downtown Chicago, in Schaumburg, and online, Roosevelt offers a strong and balanced curriculum.
Chicago Campus
Schaumburg Campus
1400 N. Roosevelt Boulevard
The Psychology Department of Harper College (http://dept.harpercollege.edu/psychology/) has recently partnered with Roosevelt University to create multiple options for students to earn their Bachelor or Master of Arts degree and optionally participate in psychological research. Check out http://dept.harpercollege.edu/psychology/partnership.html for more information.
The PhD Program in Industrial Organizational Psychology received the final approval from the Higher Learning Commission and has accepted five outstanding students to start on this program in the Fall.
From Lynn Weiner, Dean, College of Arts and Sciences:
I am happy to announce a 100% placement rate for our 15 doctoral internship applicants - and the national rate is only 71%. Our students have won internships at sites ranging from Children's Hospital in Kansas City and the VA Center in White River Junction, Vermont, to Advocate Family Care in Oak Lawn and the Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
Additionally, PsyD student Maggie Swanson (whose internship will be with the Miami VA) took the first place ribbon for her poster on personality scales at the national meeting of the Society for Personality Assessment earlier this month.
Kudos to Professors Cami McBride, Catherine Campbell, Jim Choca, and the rest of the psychology faculty who have done such a stellar job building our doctoral program.
Although stress is a familiar and frequent occurrence in everyone's life, why is that some people seem to deal with high levels of stress with composure, while others struggle with daily hassles that most take for granted? That question is being investigated at Roosevelt University by students studying with Kimberly Dienes, an assistant professor of psychology and a licensed clinical psychologist. Read the full article

Badmouthing the PSB
A full bipartisan assault has been launched against the PSB with the ultimate goal of demolition ASAP. Wherever there's a microphone, every current politician and campaigning wannabe has jumped on the "Kill the PSB" bandwagon, blasting away with all the frantic pejoratives imaginable. It's been called "not sustainable, a big mistake, dingy, dank, deficient, ugly, dark, dreary, ridiculous, dilapidated, defunct, defective, not nice, no structural integrity, outdated, obsolete, worthless, inefficient, crumbling, poorly designed, white elephant, a mess which must be torn down."
The mayor labels it "falling down" and "beyond repair." Those descriptions sound more like Church School, Rock River School, or the old Amerock/Ziock building.
Scrapped after only 30 years? Before this summer is over, we may need every existing jail cell in the greater Rockford area. Since the roof doesn't leak, the windows aren't rotted, the floors aren't sagging, and the walls aren't falling in (or out), it would be "penny-wise and pound-foolish" to demolish the PSB. The crime rate has a direct effect on Rockford's dire economic straits. However, crime spiraling out of control does not dictate that taxpayers be dinged again, to satisfy some "visionary" who wants another multimillion-dollar project.
If malevolent hate speech could demolish a building, there would already be a big pile of rubble at 420 West State. Badmouthing the PSB has been elevated to an art form. Everyone denounces it as a veritable hellhole, except those police officers who work there every day.

Rusell Simmon's Letter to End Mandatory Minimums
I recently saw that you support Russell Simmon's end mandatory minimum letter to President Obama. Not only have I grown up dancing to your music, you are my heros. I'm a recent college graduate producing and directing a documentary about mandatory minimum sentencing and was wondering, what would it take to get an hour interview with you about mandatory minimums? I travel frequently and would am down to visit ATL if that's where you're at.

Full Disclosure
mailing list archives
Dear Readers:
You may have heard of this application before. Here's a few excerpts from
the chronicles of comersus shopping cart:
1.) http://secunia.com/advisories/12026/
"Thomas Ryan", XSS
2.) http://www.net-security.org/vuln.php?id=3559
"Thomas Ryan", Insecure Price Variables
So, "Tommy Ryan" is intimately familiar with this product. In fact, he
has detailed that he has sat on 3 vulnerabilities for this product!
(Also a nice description of his 'disclosure' process)
He has a right to be intimately familiar with this product, as he seems to
own his own (albeit lowly) security company (www.providesecurity.com)
based out of new york on 2027 East 71st Street. His company's phone
number is [718] 444.3808. It may also at this time be noted, that he is
an excellent graphics designer if you look on his web page. However,
innocent looks can be decieving.
It has come to evol's attention that Tommy has been hiding bugs inside
this software and not disclosing the bugs. Evol thinks this practice of
non-disclosure is dangerous to the internet community. Sure one might
argue that Tommy telling his cat is not a huge risk for internet
disclosure, i stand in disagreement (i have met his cat).
So what does Evol do? Evol comes to the rescue! I have found the bug
that tommy did not want to tell you independently. You can all relax now,
the internet threat level is lower. Evol wants to make the internet
community very happy, so he's going to release the bug pro-bono. It may
also be noted at this time, that after carefull manipulation of the data
contained in tommy's company's web-graphic and with the optimizations evol
has independently discovered in AES brute-force decryption, that it
actually contains a message. The message is, "I have told my cat how to
get root, and the internet shall suffer my wrath". Your welcome internet
security community.
So what is the bug you ask? Improper input validation! Here's an excerpt
of code:
dim mySQL, conntemp, rstemp, pEmail, pPassword
pEmail = getUserInput(request("email"),50)
mySQL="SELECT idCustomer, idCustomerType, name, lastName FROM customers
WHERE email='" &pEmail& "' AND password='" &EnCrypt(pPassword,
pEncryptionPassword)& "' AND active=-1"
so one thinks, no problem input validation happens in get user input. not
the case:
function getUserInput(input,stringLength)
dim tempStr, newString, regEx
Set regEx = New RegExp
tempStr = left(trim(input),stringLength)
regEx.Pattern = "([^A-Za-z0-9 () *|' _-]+)"
regEx.IgnoreCase = True
regEx.Global = True
newString = regEx.Replace(tempStr, "")
Set regEx = nothing
' replace due to DB hack threats
newString = replace(newString,"--","")
newString = replace(newString,";","")
getUserInput = newString
end function
replace due to db hack threats! what about the single quote? for proof
of concept, log into server with "username' OR 'hack'='hack". The more
adventurous can turn this into command execution.
Evol likes tommy though. Tommy publishes his own disclosure policy and
adheres to it. Evol wants to follow suit. Evol's disclosure policy:
1.) Find bug
2.) Drink one (1) can of red bull sugar-free
3.) Take tab, and flip back and forth counting 0-1-0-1-0-1..etc
4.) If sugar-free redbull lands on 1, give vendor notification
5.) If sugar-free redbull lands on 0, proceed to step 7
6.) Notify vendor, waste lots of time telling them the problem and don't
make money.
7.) Publish vulnerability, get lots of hapiness and lots of time to find
more bugs.
Fix of bug:
newString = replace(newString,"'","")
Disclaimer: I am allowed to change my disclosure policy. If people
enforce laws regarding disclosure policies I will find a way to leak
vulnerabilities more slowly to the internet community whilst i live in
Africa. In Africa, I will be able to spend all of my time researching
vulnerabilities which will significantly increase the internet threat
level. I do not want to be evil, or malicious but I also want freedom. I
believe G.W. Bush should interfere with these pretend legislative bodies
and give me freedom such as those he's giving to the iraqi people. But
please if that does happen, don't let the troops strip my girlfriend
nekked and subsequently torture her worse then she ever would have gotten
tortured before.
Don't get caught in the publicity
Or caught in the hype
Hackers are, regular people minus coding all night
Searching for sloppy coding, bugs in logic
Yeah, my rapping skills are new-wave compared to eeye.

When designing a home, one of the basic questions is whether you want your house plans to include a basement. There are a variety of options, from ranch house plans to walk-out basement house plans. Basements are part of the home's foundation, so getting this room on the checklist early is vital to your choice of plans.
The footprint of the home will dictate the basement's size. Measure the area that will be used and then list the functions that are most important to you. For example, if you'll use your basement as a home theater, it will require different plans than if you use it as guest space. Many house plans come with pre-drawn basements, which you can either use as is, or have an architect or contractor change to your specifications.
If creating the house plans yourself, use a pencil, paper and ruler to draw a simple layout of what you would like your basement to look like. This will serve as a helpful reference tool for your contractor or architect.
If you are planning to have a walk-out basement, then you will want to consider the best place for the exterior door of the basement. The same goes for a kitchen or garage that will act as an entrance to the basement; be sure your plans include ingress and egress that meet local building codes.

Pianist Laura McMillan does what few other musicians do. She changes back-and-forth between tempos within her original compositions. Sure this happens occasionally in jazz, rock and country, but only once in a blue moon. McMillan, a classically-trained new age solo pianist, does it on virtually every tune (or at least 10 out of 12) on her second album, the recently-released Linger Longer on her own label.

National Occupational Standards (NOS) specify the standard of performance an individual
must achieve when carrying out a function in the workplace, together with the knowledge
and understanding they need to meet that standard consistently. Essentially NOS
are benchmarks of good practice.
Each NOS defines one key function in a job role. Each NOS must be a concise and
readable document, usually consisting of no more than five or six pages (some are
only one or two). In their essential form, NOS describe functions, standards of
performance and knowledge/understanding.
The NOS are laid down by employers (through their SSCs). A set of NOS, aligned to
a job role, called Qualification Pack, would be available for every job role in
each industry sector. These drive both the creation of curriculum, and assessments.
Thus NVQF will theoretically make it possible to drive competency based training
for every job role in industry. It would be possible for all current vocational
courses, like MES, ITI Courses, or similar vocational courses in schools, colleges
and polytechnics to be aligned to job roles at specific NVQF Levels. An ITI Course
in Plumbing would say they are training for plumbers at NVQF Level 3. Similarly
a polytechnic, training in fashion design, may say it is training for NVQF Level
5 for Garment Cutters. Many NOS and Qualification Packs are given below. More would
be uploaded shortly.
Click on the tab below to view the Occupation Standards drafted by Sector Skill
Council for duly approved by their Industry.
These Occupation Standards are open for public viewing for a month
Any comments or feedback can be addressed to Rajiv Mathur, Head - Standards and
QA at NSDC on email@example.com
All comments/ feedback received during the period will be responded to by respective
Sector Skill Council under intimation to NSDC

The tabs of the various Sector Skill Councils below include the Occupational Standards
which are currently under Industry Validation.
These standards are uploaded for public viewing so as to enable anyone for sending
in any comments or observations to the concerned Sector Skill Council or to NSDC.
These standards could be used by any training organization to build curriculum and
use them for training purposes on the condition that when the industry validation
is completed by the concerned Sector Skill Council, if required, they will do the
necessary changes in the curriculum

A frequently asked question is whether nuclear decommissioning has reached technological maturity. A generally accepted definition of technological maturity is given as:
"A mature technology is a technology that has been in use for long enough that most of its initial faults and inherent problems have been removed or reduced by further development…One of the key indicators of a mature technology is the ease of use for both non-experts and professionals. Another indicator is a reduction in the rate of new breakthrough advances related to it—whereas inventions related to a (popular) immature technology are usually rapid and diverse, and may change the whole use paradigm—advances to a mature technology are usually incremental improvements only."Read the full story »
On September 30, 1999, Japan experienced the second worst civilian radiation exposure in its history at the Tokaimura fuels facility. Two technicians were performing routine work conducted in a similar manner for over the past seven years when a previously determined 'impossible criticality event' became an inevitability. The accident claimed two lives and exposed over 300,000 people living in proximity to the plant.[1] In little over a decade later, the worst nuclear materials accident occurred 250 miles away at the Fukushima Daiichi fuels storage facility, with the structural and biological damage already exceeding the $70 billion mark. Though the facilities differ in terms of their mission and scope of work, a common root cause was that both facilities either provided no training in an important area, such as the absence of fissile material handling fundamentals at Tokaimura, and the training provided was deemed ineffective.[2] Both facilities had a training department that at some point worked to an approved training plan. So, what happened?Read the full story »
