Designers, curators and theorists work in a world in flux. They are faced with complex themes that cannot be reduced to readily solvable design problems. More and more they will be crossing the boundaries of their disciplines, while the themes they work on deserve the critical view of well-informed creative minds. The Master programmes at Design Academy Eindhoven (DAE) offer students the tools needed to research and analyze complex situations, and develop personal views on possible interventions, both to improve their individual design, or design theory, practice and to create (multidisciplinary) collaborations with others.
The Master course is an English spoken, two year full time programme. In order to attend one of the Master programs you must first pass a selection of the applications. For more information concerning the Master departments vision and content, please visit our website: designacademy.nl/masters
The Masters application procedure for the academic year 2016-2017 consists of two steps:
1. Review of creative portfolio, video and motivation letter
2. Interview with selection committee
Applicants that are positively reviewed during step one will be invited for an interview. After the interview the applicant will hear whether he/she is accepted or in some cases put on the waiting list. After the applicant hears whether he/she is accepted, he/she needs to finalize his/her acceptance in the programme by payment of the pre-deposit.
The minimum requirement for new Master students is a completed course at Bachelor level, preferably specialised in design, architecture, art or science.
1 November 2015: application procedure opens.
1 May 2016: application procedure closes.
November 2015 / May 2016: candidates can upload their online application
Deadline First round applications: 1 April 2016
Deadline Second round applications: 1 May 2016

5. English sufficiency test

For Chinese students only it is mandatory to deliver a language certificate. This is a NUFFIC regulation. It is required to have good knowledge of the English language in order to clearly communicate with your tutors and in order to develop and write your thesis research. If your English is not fluent you will have to consider to delay your application until you have developed the level required.
b) Applicants who are not native English speakers but who have attended a study in an English speaking country during the last two years can present a certificate from their school stating their sufficient level in English, instead of an language certificate.
6. Curriculum Vitae / Resume

9. Digital Portfolio
Practical detail: please use a PDF format with both pictures and text. Make sure that you reduce the PDF file size before you upload the document.
The purpose of the portfolio is to show a selection of your work, interests and fascinations. It should reflect who you are as creative person/designer, your position in the (design) world and your vision. We ask you to prepare a document were you can include images of your concepts and products, experiences of research, design-related or not. Sketches, unfinished or conceptual work can also be included. Please make sure that you do not upload separate images, we require one document for your portfolio.
10. For Design Curating and Writing students

mummy's boy
sustantivoBritish informal
A boy or man who is excessively influenced by or attached to his mother.

doughnut dip't penise is when a gurl eats a doughnut off your penise
by Q/tip October 12, 2009
An acronym for Double Dentry Penetration. First used by Jackson Davey, this term means that the Dentry twins (identical twins) penetrate you both at once. This may sound like incest but the idea is not to let them touch. DDP is not restricted to just penises either, hands or other objects may be used in DDP (and it can be performed on both females and males). The hotmail used by them email@example.com makes the term even funnier because it reads "Twin Entry".
"Got DDP?"
"Man i'm up for some DDP right about now"
"Thanks boys i had good DDP last night"
"I wish they would DDP me!"
"When i had DDP i couldn't tell which one is which"
"Man i'm up for some DDP right about now"
"Thanks boys i had good DDP last night"

text: CCP, developer of Eve Online and Dust 514, announced at Eve Fanfest a partnership with Dark Horse Comics. Along with this partnership comes Eve's True Stories campaign, which allows players to submit their own story from their experience in Eve Online. These submitted and voted-upon stories will inspire the Dark Horse comic book, a TV series, and possibly films. Of course, we all know how enjoyable game-movies end up not being, I hope an Eve movie doesn't follow suit. A TV series would end up being far more entertaining, and after nabbing Contraband Director Baltasar Kormákur, I have high hopes. Comics are a different story. People love comics about games they play, and they read the crap out of them. Valve teamed up with Dark Horse 2 years ago and released DLC along with the comic they produced and that was a hit. Hopefully Dark Horse can do the same for the Eve universe, and they've already started work on 64-pages of delicious content. No specific details yet about the TV series, but I'm certainly excited.

Hersha to Sell 16 Hotels to Blackstone Affiliate for $217M
Thursday September 26th, 2013 - 1:30PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
PHILADELPHIA—Lodging REIT Hersha Hospitality Trust entered into a definitive agreement to sell 16 hotels to an affiliate of Blackstone Real Estate Advisors for $217 million, or approximately $125,000 per key.
This transaction marks Hersha's exit from Long Island and suburban Philadelphia, as well as the sale of the REIT's remaining consolidated properties in Connecticut and Rhode Island.
"The anticipated sale of these non-core portfolio hotels completes our transformation into a pure-play, urban transient portfolio with exposure to some of the highest demand gateway markets in the United States," stated CEO Jay H. Shah. "The sale of these assets will result in material improvement to our RevPAR quality and EBITDA growth potential, and demonstrates our ability to achieve diverse strategic objectives across the company. We are pleased to have timed our two portfolio sale processes to capitalize on private-equity interest in stabilized, select service assets in suburban markets. Including the anticipated sale of these 16 non-core hotels, we have sold 46 non-strategic hotels generating approximately $460 million in gross proceeds since 2008. In addition to further reducing leverage, we expect to redeploy the cash proceeds from this sale into higher growth opportunities in Miami and the West Coast."
Hersha values the anticipated sale of these hotels at a trailing 12 months capitalization rate of approximately 8% and a hotel EBITDA multiple of 11x. In conjunction with the anticipated sale, the company expects to repay approximately $79 million of outstanding debt, which will result in the the REIT receiving cash proceeds of $138 million before customary closing costs and transaction expenses. The Company anticipates recording a book gain of approximately $30 million on the sale of these assets.
The transaction is expected to close by the end of first-quarter 2014

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

"Peaceful haven away from hustle and bustle"
Certainly a beautiful villa. We had a wonderful holiday. The Villa has 4 separate bedrooms and bathrooms in the main house and a separate master suite. Rooms in the main villa do not inter-connect so the only way to access each is via the verandah or balcony. This ddin't really pose a problem for us but something to be mindful of if travelling with very young children as it is difficult to hear them during the night (ours were old enough to come and find us). Pool and facilities are spectacular. Open air pavilion is lovely! Staff are friendly but not obtrusive at all (actually would have been nice to have a bit more interaction with them!). Villa is a short walk from shops and restaurants and we arranged a driver to take us to the beach as we had small kids who couldn't walk that far in the heat. Canggu is far less busy than Seminyak but still has some great shops. Restaurants near the villa aren't all that great but plenty of options and even more options if you have a driver. One thing to note: Villa does not have a coffee machine! Nescafe only!!! Karen the owner is happy to answer any questions. Lovely spot and a truly wonderful holiday!

"Best place to stay on the Island"
With it stunning balinese architecture, and the great location its the perfect place to reside in Bali. Only minutes away by scooter from the best Yoga lessons on the island, a 5 minutes walk to great surf break beaches, and many tasty and organic Restaurants just around the corner too. The staff very friendly, went out of their way to do anything they could, to make our stay an unforgettable experience. We had a lovely time at Villa Prasada, also thanks to the quietness all around. Definitely back for the honeymoon ;)

"Amazing Villa Prasada!!"
Villa Prasada was set in a lovely quiet part of Bali where you are only a short stroll or scooter ride to Echo beach or around 15-20minutes in a car to Seminyak. The staff at the villa are very caring and made sure all my friends were well looked after. The night of my birthday the chef Ngurah along with the staff cooked and served amazing finger food for my guests (around 40people) and even sang with enthusiasm happy birthday in Indonesian- which was a highlight. Highly recomend any group of family or friends to stay at Villa Prasada in the future as its trully a relaxing villa where the chef will happily spend time with you pouring through cookbooks to delight your senses ...can't wait to see them again next year!!!

"Bali with a difference"
We have been to Bali several times. Ubud, the plush hotels, the private villas and the busy streets, noise and bustle. So this time for something different. After being met by polite and willing Ketut he drove us painlessly to the villa located north west of the airport and on the edge of the busy part of Seminyak. We received a warm welcome from the staff having stepped past the temple and over the Koi turning right into the reception area. This area with its bar for the next week was a great place to chat, meet for expeditions or compare notes while accessing the internet. The rooms and beds were comfortable, spotless, quiet and cool with outside spacious shower and toilet facilities. Time in the pool with friends was a great opportunity to extend this whole business of relaxing aided by local skilled uniformed masseauses. Our morning walks brought us into contact with the locals going about their business. Lunch either at the Villas from a wide selection of local and international dishes and the evening either locally or in the more up market hotels in town. Ketut our driver was excellent in taking care of getting us there and back with no hassle. He knew the right Hotels, Bars and places to visit. This was really a splendid visit. Thank you.

"Birthday Celebration in tranquil Canggu"
We recently enjoyed a 5 night stay at luxurious Villa Prasada.The occassion was a surprise 60th birthday celebration for my husband with a group of our closest friends. Our guests loved the Villa and its location. Our morning walks to Echo Beach were a highlight, seeing the locals in the village going about their daily activities.They greeted us as old friends without even one trying to sell us something! The staff were exceptional and went out of their way to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed a delicious authentic Indonesian dinner prepared by the Chef on our first evening. Apart from a beautiful meal at Sarong in Seminyak for the birthday dinner, we ate locally. A seafood BBQ at Echo Beach, an organic meal at OM and a very pleasant evening on the verandah at Deus ex Machina - all within walking distance from Villa Prasada. The girls in our group made good use of the local Massage Ladies, organized for us by the Villa Staff. One remarked that it was "the best massage ever". Villa Prasada is a beautiful peaceful place to stay away from the hustle and bustle and chaos of Kuta and Seminyak, yet within an easy 15-20 minute drive. The accommodation is immaculate, spacious and extremely comfortable. We envy Karen and her family having such a beautiful home to visit in Bali!

"A week in an exclusive tropical paradise"
The villa is large, well furnished and easily accommodate 10 people in 5 double rooms. The 14m pool is long enough to swim laps. The staff were helpful and willing to please but not intrusive. The villa is in easy walking distance to Echo Beach. Situated in Canggu you are away from the crowds at Kuta, but still close enough to travel to Kuta if you feel the need to shop/dine. The staff prepared your personal orders for breakfast and did other meals if requested. Meals were served at the time requested and the meals were certainly good enough such that you didn't need to go out to a restaurant and hence could dine in if you wanted. The Villa has wireless internet access.

"Pure luxury and indulgence."
Our stay at Villa Prasada was just sensational. The staff were amazing! Very friendly, polite and always ready to help with a smile. The food prepared by the cook was the some of the best we ate while in Bali. It was also great to be staying out of the hussle and bussle of Kuta. Very quiet, calm and relaxing. Within walking distance of the beach, some terrific restaurants and a lovley day spa. It was just nice to lie by the pool and recharge the batteries without ever having to lift a finger.

"A magical, luxurious and relaxing holiday"
What better way to unwind and relax with friends than have a few days at Villa Prasada. We were met by Ketut, the most friendly and endearing driver at the airport. The cool towels were a welcome and refreshing touch after the flight, customs and humidity. Upon arrival at Villa Prasada we immediately relaxed as we enjoyed cool drinks, the magnificent pool and the stunning accommodation. All the bedrooms are spectacular, airconditioned and so roomy and comfortable. The staff are friendly, nothing is ever too much trouble and the meals are so tasty and presented with love and imagnation why would you want to eat out! Having said that there are so many restaurants within easy reach too. The entertaining area creates a magical ambience where you can relax enjoying the pool, massages, talk, read or whatever you feel like. I would thoroughly recommend Villa Prasada to anyone who wants to getaway from the hustle and bustle of the busier areas but still wants to enjoy the Bali experience. We will definitely be back!

"Exactly what the doctor ordered"
We were all (9 adults, 2 children, 2 infants) in Bali for my Dad's 70th birthday. Villa Prasada was perfect as it could accomodate the entire party in 1 location with ample room to spare. The service was fantastic from the onsite staff. The cook prepared awesome meals and we had very off the menu requests which were catered for with no issue and they would present an itemised receipt for the items...which we didn't really care but goes to show that they are honest and trustworthy people. The cleaning staff were great too especially considering the mess 4 children can make. The one repeated comment from everyone throughout our stay was, "this is the most relaxing vacation we've ever had". The Children had such a blast, they were in the pool every morning and evening. They would immerse themselves with Wiggles Dvds during the mid-afternoon heat in the fully air-conditioned & large projector aV room. There is a huge kitchen where you can prepare childrens meals or you can get the staff to prepare some local children friendly food. Overall, the subtle value added service such as a never ending supply of Ice cubes, the rooms cleaned twice a day etc. really made staying at the villa pleasant and truly carefree.

"Luxury at Villa Prasada"
One week at Villa Prasada with good friends or family would be the ideal holiday as it was for us when we joined three other couples for a birthday celebration. We were met at the airport by our driver Katut who offered us a lovely cooling towel - heaven after clearing customs etc. and after an easy drive (possibly 35 minutes) we came upon "our road" which lead us to an unexpected paradise. The Villa management/owners had thought of everything and there was a very comprehensive guest directory in our room with so many helpful suggestions. We thought our room - with the black & white decor was the pick of the four rooms of course, but all had beautiful and well thought out themes. The bathroom, including a huge bath was lovely, however, the best feature was the air conditioned dressing area and being able to put makeup on in air conditioned comfort which isn't usually the case at hotels we've stayed in before. Meal time was delightful and our chef and his team accommodated our every whim. We enjoyed numerous massages, manicures and pedicures from a team of young girls in the comfort of our garden bale and even tried Zumba in the Theatre room. Shopping - was just a 25 minute drive away with our own personal driver - the quality is great in Seminyak. Coming home to the sanctuary of our Villa was always a pleasure. We highly recommend you try it!!! Words don't do it justice.

A day before the Democratic National Convention opened, Wikileaks released a trove of hacked DNC emails that became a viral political firestorm involving odd bedfellows Donald Trump and Russian president Vladimir Putin–and Guccifer 2.0, and Julian Assange.
The speech Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton gave tonight in accepting her party's nomination blew this American woman's mind.

I don't know anything about Science Fiction writings, but this map strongly reminds me of Pete Frame and his exhaustive "Rock Family Tree" series – though Frames drawings are more rigid and grid-like.

Pretty nifty! Needs another wormhole though, for alternative history / steampunk.
Heh. He spelled Elric wrong.
I wish that it was a little easier to read.
I wonder how Shelley is defining "speculative fiction".
He's trolling us. He's got to be.
He listed "the forever war" as "the forever peace"
Not so. The Forever War is right under John Varley's Gaia trilogy.
Gorgeous. I love the alien blob of it all.
It is just my lack of observation or are there no mentions of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?
Anyone capable of pointing out the books, movies, television show or radio series to me?
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is listed as a book and it's between "Space Opera" and "New Space Opera", beneath "Ender's Game" and "Speaker for the Dead", just above the break into movies.
It's fantastic. I love that there is so much in there that I haven't read yet – I'm always looking for book recommendations, especially among the classics of SF and fantasy. Why, I only read 'More than human' last month!
It's Amazing, Astounding and full of Wonder. I'd love to know how he sketched the outline.
I'm not so sure that "Blood Music" is hard SF. Where are Hal Clement's books?
And Tau Zero is closer to hard SF than Space Opera.
Too bad Gurdjieff is missing from the Space Opera stream!
(Slightly off-topic…)
I find it hard to believe he didn't actually connect Poe's Dupin and Sherlock Holmes. Doyle might have made his hay on the low brow periodical, but Holmes is a direct rip of Dupin, and all the rest are an offshoot of Holmes. Also the Holmes pipe into the wormhole should be HUGE in comparison… Poe may have invented the archetype, but Doyle created the genre.
Wonderful piece, it makes me think and review.
I also see books that I probably should have read, but missed, and others that I read long ago (50 years?) and need to read again as old friends.
@jerwin: "Mission of Gravity" is right after the F&SF bulb, between Bester and Dick.
An impressive work, for all its essential incompleteness.
The order of the last two "Planet of the Apes" films is reversed. No, I'm not counting Tim Burton's remake.
An unforgivable error, if what you say is true.
I know- hard to believe anyone could make that mistake.
Wow. Sturgeon squeezed in. The template for Kilgore Trout just squeezed in with More Than Human? The man is a monster of 20th century literature… ask most of the writers on the map. anyway, rant done.
Zoomed It: http://zoom.it/GJBW7
A magnificent graphic, but Arthur Clarke's 'Space Odyssey' series is the only science-fiction produced yet that may be as good as the 'Metroid' series (especially 'Prime'), and 'Metroid' aint here.
Did i miss Leguin's "The Dispossessed" in there?
Was Voyager really listed and not Enterprise?
Were Varley's horror tour de force "Press Enter" and KSR's mountaineering novella Green Mars skipped?
Wot, No Omni magazine? Short lived, but high budget and influential in the 80s.
Nice.. Fell well within the Schwarzschild radius… Must have suffered some kind of time-dilation effect… seem to have flashed forward… it can't be that time already… shit.
ps. Amongst other notable absences, where's Cory..?;)
At the Little Read Book Store in Ames, Iowa, I once met a woman who'd just gotten the world's first-ever Ph.D. awarded for a dissertation about "Women In Science Fiction." She's never heard of Judith Merrill, nor (by admittedly cursory once-over) has this guy.
Maybe I'm just not seeing it amidst the hubbub, but I couldn't find Stanislaw Lem or his masterpiece "Solaris."
One of my favorite Sci-Fi critics published a great book which contained tiny reviews of just about every sci-fi novel/anthologies written "The Ultimate Guide To Science Fiction" by David Pringle is a fantastic guide for anyone wanting to get further into the genre. Its out of print but there are still used copies available on Amazon. A second printing which has updates came out but you'll pay through the nose for even a dog-eared copy.
Yarp: "Solaris" is there, top, with a line linking it to New Age.
I am trying to think of what book he is thinking of by Zelazny when he puts 'This Immortal' on the 'Sword and Sorcery' limb. Amber, no argument, but "This Immortal"/"…And Call Me Conrad" is easily as much Science Fiction as "Dune" (which is just below 'Dangerous Visions' on the top branch).
Interesting, but with the occasional odd lapse.
As this is, to the best of my awareness, a unique document, whether Mr. Shelley erred in positioning, including, or excluding a certain work is, I feel, somewhat dilatory: Critiquing the first non-religious mapmaker because he put your home village on the wrong side of a creek is beside the point. The question ought to be: Is this graphical display of science fiction history *useful,*? I claim it is, both for demonstrating the proximity of science-fiction fandom to literary criticism, and for highlighting the criticality of historical context in understanding contemporary works. Abrams' Trek reboot cannot be understood without reference to TOS; TOS cannot be understood without reference to all that Shelley's diagram demonstrates as its antecedants.
It's missing Cowboy Bebop. Should have it's own color and widget, too, since it's "a genre onto itself".
And the Irwin Allen TV shows should be grouped together, not flailing around Star Trek.
On the other hand, now that I put it that way…
Bujold's Vorkosigan series is definitely not cyberpunk, and Paladin of Souls is most assuredly fantasy, not sci-fi at all. Sadly I'm a young whippersnapper and can't speak for the older stuff, just ohh and aah. I would object to calling Crichton "hard" science fiction though, as I've always gotten a good chuckle over how bad his "science" is.
An interesting map, but where is Algernon Henry Blackwood, CBE (14 March 1869 – 10 December 1951)? And just to be knit-picking (cos that's just like a Virgoan), Ward has left out the (d) in Alexan(d)er Dumas…I point these out in a light hearted manner you understand. Lol.

WD-40/SEMA Cares rig raises $200,000 for charityComments Email
LAS VEGAS (Jan. 24, 2014) — The WD-40/SEMA Cares 2012 Foose Ford Super Duty F-350 raised $200,000 last week at the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction in Scottsdale, Ariz.
The vehicle, unveiled at the 2012 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas, was purchased by Bill Barker of Fort Worth, Texas. SEMA said all proceeds raised from the truck's auction benefit the association's "SEMA Cares" charities and scholarship programs.
"I've been blessed," Mr. Barker told SEMA. "For me, it wasn't just about the truck; it was for charity and it was something I felt I needed to do."
The custom 2012 Ford F-350 Super Duty work truck—designed by Chip Foose, who heads Foose Design Inc. —includes Foose-inspired custom front- and rear-wheel flares, side rockers and a front chin spoiler, among other upgrades. Following its debut at the 2012 SEMA Show in the WD-40 Co. booth, SEMA said the custom truck appeared at events throughout California, New Mexico, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and Tennessee. It represents the new WD-40 Specialist line of products "designed to help skilled trade professionals get their specific jobs done with ease," according to the trade group.
Build partners for the project included Foose Design, Ford Motor Co., Source Interlink Media, Icon Vehicle Dynamics, DynaTrac, MagnaFlow, Michelin North America Inc.'s BFGoodrich brand, Takit, Husky Liners, Leer, Katzkin, Pro Comp, Polk Audio, Audio Innovations and PowerBass. Custom fender work and paint were done by LGE-CTS Motorsports in San Dimas, Calif.
SEMA said that thus far five of the WD-40/SEMA Cares vehicles have raised more than $775,000 in auctions for the Diamond Bar, Calif.-based association's charities. Previous vehicles include a 2010 Chevy Camaro, 2011 Ford Mustang, 2012 Dodge Challenger and 1953 Ford F-100. The Dodge Challenger, Ford F-100 and Ford Super Duty were all designed by Mr. Foose.
WD-40 has committed to continue working with SEMA Cares to build another vehicle for 2014, SEMA said. It noted that WD-40/SEMA Cares also will raffle off a 2013 Ford F-150 truck built by the students of the Alex Xydias Center for Automotive Arts in Southern California.
More information about the truck and raffle are available on the WD-40 website.

Andre Johnson Vs. Nolan Ryan: Which Beatdown Wins?
Texans fans got a rare chance to cheer this weekend, and not only because the team won (we won't mention exactly how low on the totem pole the opposition's starting QB was). There was also an unusual helmet-free fight, between Andre Johnson and the Titans' Cortland Finnegan.
Johnson's widearmed face-punching of a prone Finnegan put us in mind of another famous on-field Texas fight -- Nolan Ryan's brawl with Robin Ventura.
Which was better?
Major League Baseball has been pretty vigilant about keeping the Ryan clip off the tubes, but here is fuzzy amateur video...of two dudes re-enacting it.

So, who wins?
3. Initial impression Johnson is seen punching a guy who looks to be lying in the fetal position, begging for help like a mewling kitty. Ryan has someone locked up in a bearhug and is using his free hand to whale away. Neither is really adhering to the Marquess of Queensbury rules, but at least Ryan's opponent is standing. Advantage: Ryan
2. Opponents Andre Johnson is 6-3, 225; Cortland Finnegan is 5-10, 188 and looks like a demented leprechaun. Nolan Ryan, at the time of his fight, was approximately 63 years old; Robin Ventura was in the prime of his career, such as it was. So in terms of perception, advantage Ryan.
1. Unusualness (Unusuality?) Batters rush the mound all the time, although typically not against the elderly. A Houston Texans player actually showing some spunk, on the other hand? Rare indeed. And like we said, NFL fights usually involve two players slapping each other ineffectually on the helmet. This time the helmets were off. Advantage: Johnson.
So give the win to Ryan, we guess. But maybe they should settle it in the ring.

Colombian government clinches historic agreement with guerillas thanks to the Church
The thorniest of the five issues being discussed by Manuel Santos' government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, Colombia's main rebel group, has been resolved. The entire framework of the peace agreement between the two parties depended on it. Point number 2 of the agreement signed yesterday states that the guerrilla group agrees to disarm and transform itself into a political party; in exchange, the rebels have been guaranteed the safety and rights of the political opposition in Colombia, including new political movements that might arise after a peace deal. It also gains space in the media, institutional reforms to facilitate the creation of political parties, electoral transparency guarantees, particularly in areas where there is a higher risk of fraud.
This, in short, is the result of the second round of discussions which started in June. This was considered the hardest step along the path towards a full agreement. This historic result could put an end to a half-century-long armed conflict.
Some emphasise the fact that the agreement was reached during the Latin American pope's reign. There is no doubt that Francis wholeheartedly supported dialogue and especially the bilateral negotiations going on in Cuba, right from the start. He was clear about this when he spoke to President Santos in May, on the occasion of Laura Montoya's canonisation. Laura Montoya is Colombia's first saint. He also made his position known to the President of Uruguay José Mujica in June and stressed it on more than one occasion to the various bishops who have visited him over the past few months. The Colombian Church paid a high price for peace which now could really be imminent. A total of 83 priests, five religious women and three religious men have been assassinated since 1984 and with them a large number of catechists.
But the Church has never believed in a military solution: from the guerilla's expansion across vast areas of Colombia in the 90's to the following decade, after the death of FARC leader Manuel Marulanda Vélez (aka Tirofijo), and the government's attacks on other members of the guerilla group's central secretariat.
The day before the historic announcement in the Headquarters of the Colombian Episcopate on Tuesday 6 November, Cardinal Rubén Salazar Gómez presented a 92-page document outlining eight basic points for a National agreement to be reached. The document was produced after a wide consultation of all of Colombia's key social, economic, political and academic figures, which began in 2009. The document set out some essential structural and permanent conditions for reconciliation and peace. This was a way to put pressure on those taking part in the Cuba negotiations. It is important to note that a large part of the content of the eight points was included in the Havana agreement.
Now that the more political aspect of the negotiations is out of the way, the delegations representing the government and guerilla group have decided to take ten days of reflection. The third point – illegal drugs – will then be discussed, followed by the issue of compensation for the conflict's victims and processes for holding a referendum on the final agreement.

i love Jesus, I love sitting and remembering my family and friends who have passed away good memories are fun to rewatch in my mind and tell others about them. I don't have alot of free time but when I do i am always sharing it by helping others all the time, I do alot of volunteer work and I add and take away some often. I have always been fascinated with cemeteries reading gravestones and wondering about who the people are and what they were like (the dash) i like to see all the beautiful decorations and help keep trash picked up out of cemeteries. I think its important to keep them up and looking good and keeping an eye on the places to keep the vandalizing down, its very peaceful and relaxing. I like to take pictures with my camera anyway so when I found this website I knew i would be able to help.
besides taking walks in graveyards i am a 4H advisor, Stephen minister, Big Sister, school cafe sub, I work full time as a transportation driver, property manager,and enjoy helping at my church all the time and spending time with my family im pretty good at fitting everyone in but know when to slow down on somethings too.

RE: Catherine Cooch
Hi Susan,
It has been a year since you sent this message.
Unfortunately I am just now getting around to seeing and responding to it. It has been in my inbox for a year!
Life has been busy!
I wanted you to know I appreciate you searching the cemetery.
It sounds like you spent some time looking.
I received an email that Michael Hawkins had taken a photo
of Catherine Cooch's stone just last month.
I was wondering if you still had images of any of the other Cooch
stones that you may have seen in the area.
I would love to have those as well.
Thank you,

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand

Alabama student claims top prize
Published: Monday, July 30, 2007 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, July 29, 2007 at 11:00 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | Who is the best golfer in the county?
That is the question PARA and The Tuscaloosa News sought to answer when they partnered together to sponsor the inaugural Tuscaloosa County Golf Championship.
The answer came in the form of University of Alabama finance major, Bo Farlow, who shot a two-day total of 153 to win the Championship Division of the Championship flight on Sunday afternoon at Ol Colony Golf Complex.
The 21-year-old Farlow shot a 75 in the first round and followed it up with a 78 on Sunday to win the championship by two strokes over Lee Hayes.
Farlows pre-tournament strategy of avoiding a one-hole meltdown played out over the course of the two-day tournament, as he kept the ball in the fairways and gave himself looks at the greens.
My main focus was to drive the ball well and keep the ball in play," he said. That was hard to do out here these past two days.
The golf course was in great shape, but it was set-up to play the hardest since Ive been playing here.
I just wanted to avoid the big number."
Local artist Jimmy Tom Goostree won the championship division of the Senior flight posting the low round of the tournament with a 69. His two-day total of 147 was good enough for a four shot victory over runner-up Earle Drennen, who shot a 76-75.
Starting the day two strokes behind Drennen, Goostree jumpstarted his round with the tee shot on the par three fourth hole.
Goostree hit a 7-wood that struck the top of the flagstick and came to rest on the green. He made birdie and then birdies the next hole.
That was the key to my round," he said. After those holes I felt comfortable over my tee shots.
It put me in a positive frame of mind. I still had a little bit of tension in me, but I think that helps you concentrate on each shot more."
The son of former UA athletic trainer Jim Goostree, Jim Tom grew up around athletics and began seriously playing golf as a sophomore at UA.
Jerry Pate, whos a family friend, had just won the U.S. Open and thats about the time I started concentrating on golf. I had grown up playing at Indian Hills but it was until college that I started playing seriously."
Goostree said he plays about once a week, but practices more than he plays.
His practice paid off on Sunday.
My putting and my short game are my strengths," he said. Ive had trouble in the past two or three years with my driver and long irons, but I finally feel like Im turning the corner in those areas.
Today I just tried to, regardless of the shot, concentrate on each shot and not let the bad ones stay with me.
I didnt have a number in mind today. I just wanted to keep it in play."
In the Senior Division Jerry Glover won the Super flight with a 153. Mike Davidson won the Second flight with a 172, and Lewis Simon won the First flight with a 163.
In the Championship Division Kelvin Elliott took first in the Second flight with a 186, and Jon McGee won the First flight with a 165.

Clean reasonably priced.
I made a reservation at this motel because they are supposed to be pet friendly. As it turned out, I did not travel with my pet but when I checked in, I saw they charge $15 to accommodate a pet. This fee was not mentioned on their website.
