Diversity at MSFS
MSFS recognizes the value of diversity in the student body. Normally 25-35% of our U.S. students are from an underrepresented population and 30-40% are non-U.S. citizens. The exchange of viewpoints based on differing backgrounds and experiences is vital to effective training in the field of international affairs.
The MSFS Program is a participating member of various programs which assist minority students who wish to pursue careers in public and international affairs, including the Association of Professional Schools in International Affairs (APSIA), the Charles B. Rangel International Affairs program and the Public Policy and International Affairs Fellowship Program (PPIA). Students seeking information about diversity in student affairs at Georgetown can contact the Center for Multicultural Equity and Access at (202) 687-4054 or Hoya Circles, a student-led group serving the multicultural graduate student community.
Non-U.S. students have equal access to admission and MSFS scholarships: there are no quotas for specific countries and all nationalities are considered for scholarship. In the "How to Apply" section you will find guidance on standardized testing for non-native speakers of English, and the "Financial Aid and Expenses" section has links to information specifically for international students.
Information for Students with Disabilities
Georgetown University provides a full range of facilities and services for students with disabilities. If a student with disabilities wishes to discuss possible admission to the program and issues connected with the fulfillment of degree requirements he/she should contact the Academic Resource Center at (202) 687-8354 or email@example.com.

Sedentary lifestyles contribute to obesity
Published: Sunday, January 4, 2004 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 4, 2004 at 12:00 a.m.
We have heard the alarm calls about the nation's obesity epidemic. Americans are getting fatter every year. And we have read that we consume more and more calories, and exercise far too little.
A new Harris Poll throws more light on why this is happening: Increasingly our favorite pastimes are sedentary and require little or no physical exercise.
Every year since 1995 Harris Interactive has asked a nationwide cross-section of adults to name their two or three favorite leisure time activities. Eight years ago, 38 percent of all replies involved activities that required exercise, including fishing, gardening, playing sports, swimming, walking, hunting, bicycling, hiking, running or dancing. Now only 29 percent of the replies involve exercise. A higher proportion of our favorite activities can now be accomplished while sitting.
These are the results of the survey of 1,017 adults by telephone by Harris Interactive between Oct. 14 and 19 last year.
Reading, TV, and spending time with family still top the list. As in previous years, the largest numbers of people mention reading (24 percent), watching TV (17 percent) and spending time with the family and kids (17 percent) as their favorite leisure activities. Those are followed by fishing (nine percent), movie-going (seven percent), socializing (seven percent, playing team sports (six percent), exercise (six percent), gardening (six percent), and hunting (four percent).
However, the people who list reading as their favorite activity has declined seven points from a high of 31 percent 2000. Those mentioning gardening are down nine points from a high of 15 percent in 1999.
Spending time with family and socializing with friends and neighbors reached their highest points this year.
Figures compiled from the poll by Harris for age, sex, race, education, number of adults and number of voice/telephone lines in households were weighted where necessary to align them with their actual proportions in the population.
In other news, according to the Associated Press, Eric Johnson, Georgia Senate President Pro Tempore, has promised to introduce a state constitutional amendment this year designed to protect sportsmen's rights from animal rights extremists.
According to the article, the amendment would have to be ratified by the state General Assembly. It "...would declare that Georgians have the right to hunt, fish, and harvest game subject only to reasonable restrictions as the General Assembly may prescribe by law."
SCI supports Sen. Johnson's plans for such legislation, and urges Georgia sportsmen to sound off to him and the rest of the Georgia General Assembly.
And now this, by way of the Safari Club International. Across the country chronic wasting disease continues to be met head-on by wildlife officials.
Now, before I slip off to do a little fishing, I would like to congratulate Ross Freeman. Ross is 16 and it looks like he has figured out this hunting stuff. Ross took a nice 4-point buck for his first deer just before Thanksgiving in Mills River. Great work, Ross.

Beck trained as a cabinetmaker, but in 1958 he went to work as a model designer for toy manufacturer Geobra Brandstätter GmbH & Co. KG. In 1971 the firm asked him to craft a series of inexpensive miniature plastic vehicles and buildings with coordinating action figures. Beck carefully studied what children really want in a toy, and in 1974 the company introduced his 7.5-cm (2.9-in) Playmobil figures, which featured simple smiling faces; movable arms, legs, waists, and hands; and interchangeable accessories intended to stimulate imaginative play in children aged four and up. By 2009 Playmobil was Germany's largest toy manufacturer, with some 2.2 billion toys sold in more than 70 countries and at amusement parks in several countries. Beck retired in 1998.

So I've been researching products recently for my next book and it got me nostalgic for the old products from my youth. Get women talking together about this stuff and everyone has LOTS to say and the melancholy becomes almost tangible.
I think the number one thing people flip out over and wish they could find again is Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific shampoo. They have it at Vermont Country Store online now, and it smells, well, terrific, but I dont' know if it's made by Jergens, who made it originally.
It should still be on the shelves of Target, Wal-Mart, etc. Why would the company stop mass producing something so universally loved?
But there's my recommendation today: get Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific from Vermont Country Store. You'll pay 100 times what you did originally but you'll be glad you did. And if you're too young to remember this blissful stuff, do yourself a favor and try it out. The flowery/spicy smell is fabulous!
Now, if only I could find someone manufacturing pink bottles of Tickle anti-perspirant....
Current Mood: melancholy
Current Music: My Sharona

Great place on a great location. From Nostrand AV subway in Manhattan within 20 minutes. Friendly neighborhood. The apartment was clean and well organized. Some neighbor noises but never till late. We liked it a lot.
Nice appartment in Brooklyn. Restaurants, laundry and subway nearby.
We had a great stay in a well-furnished apartment, close to public transport and within easy reach of supermarkets and delis, in a safe neighborhood. If you want to get to know everyday life and not feel like a tourist all the time, this is the place for you. Coretta was a wonderful host, everything was in perfect order and water and juice were waiting for us after a long trip. JFK can be reached by direct train, just like Manhattan. Anyone interested in more than just buying up Broadway will find this a very convenient location with a host who can reply to any questions asked and who is very helpful.
During our stay at Corettas' place everything went perfect and was just as expected. Coretta was very helpfull during our stay and made our visit even more comfortable. The appartment is just like described - everything was clean and neat.
The Location was perfect for us, grocery shops and coffee shops are all in walking distance. The Metro connection was fast and easy to Manhatten. The Station is about 2min walking distance away.
Spacious apartment in very quiet neighborhood, with garden, a good bed and well equipped kitchen. Nice to be welcomed with water, coke and juice. 4 minute walk to supermarket, 6-7 minute walk to subway: express train to Manhattan, and direct line to JFK. The house is a bit noisy inside due to the wooden floors: you can hear other people walk, not talk. We had a great stay in Brooklyn, NYC.
A very pleasant stay at Corettas in Brooklyn. Price vs quality was very good and everything was nice, clean and tidy. You can really feel at home her, making your own breakfast and also dinner if you want.
The concept of living in Brooklyn as a home-base was excellent!
Coming back from Manhattan to Bed-Stuy in the evening was really nice.
Going with the Metro late nights was no problem, feeling secure the whole way.
A quiet place with a bunch of friendly and helping people.
Small restaurants nearby and several stores to by food and others.
Next time we'll go to New York - this is the place to book!
Thanks Coretta and thanks Wimdu for good services and a reliable concept.
It was superb!
Det var kanonbra!
Das war wunderbar!
Erik & Camilla
We really enjoy our stay in New York.
The apartment is particularly well situated, near the subway. It is also spacious. The neighborhood is so quiet.
Coretta was present when we arrived. She gave to us information we needed (shops, subway, ...).
When we had a problem with the hairdryer, Coretta solved it very quickly.
Our stay at Coretta's place was great. Thanx a lot ,Coretta! We enjoyed it and would always return.
Nice and big apartment. Wooden floor and high ceilings. Everything you need during your stay you'll find there.The A-train is in walking distance and you will be in the city after 20mins.
Looking forward to return!
We had a great time in the apartment. Coretta was very nice, safe neighborhood.
Manhattan was easy to reach by train. We would do it again..:-)
We stayed a familiy of 5 in Coretta's apartment which were great! The apartment is as the pictures show, if not better. There is thing you need :) Very close to the supermarket(3 min) and the subway line A/C which takes you directly to all the spots you wanna see in NYC! So easy to get around.
I'll definitly recommend this apartment!
There was no problems during the week. Corretta and her husband were perfect host!

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Two wildfires northeast of Los Angeles are fouling the air breathed by millions of Southern Californians.
The air is considered unhealthy in many areas, and officials are urging people to avoid strenuous activities, indoor and out. Also, schools have been advised to suspend physical education and sports.
A 2.6-square mile blaze in Angeles National Forest has produced a pungent white haze that has spread through the Los Angeles Basin and east into San Bernardino County. Another fire is burning several miles to the west above the city of La Canada Flintridge.
At least 20 acres have burned.
Fortunately, the flames from both fires are burning away from homes and none have been lost.
The fires have been stoked by the arrival of high temperatures and extremely dry air after weeks of unusually mild summer weather.

Criminals who commit violent felonies with firearms, should lose their RKBA permanently.
Just because they've "done their time", does NOT mean they're reformed.
A lot of guys come out of prison as even worse criminals than when they went in.
According to crime statistics I've seen, about half of all felonies are committed by people with previous criminal convictions.

Key: Opp. PPG = Points per game allowed to opponents. Opp. FGP = Field goal percentage allowed to opponents. RPG Diff. = The difference between a team's rebounds per game and its opponents' rebounds per game.

Start 'em, sit 'em
Zydrunas Ilgauskas returned to action Friday night after missing three games with a sprained ankle. He scored 23 points and snared six rebounds, so be sure to get him back in your lineup, although I've had a sinking feeling over the past couple of seasons that Ilgauskas' lack of serious injuries since the early part of his career seems too good to be true and, one of these seasons, he's going to fall apart. The ankle isn't too serious, although in the leagues in which I own Ilgauskas, it's starting to feel like I'm playing with borrowed time. There are two statistically lopsided matchups Sunday, first between the Knicks and the Celtics, then the Cavs and the Thunder. The Knicks are allowing 107.3 points per game and are outrebounded like crazy, but their fast pace and high number of possessions per game makes it a good thing for both teams anytime you see New York on the schedule. Josh Howard is still rounding back into form but is a must-play when healthy; it's key to get him back in your lineup if he isn't already, especially against the Wizards, who allow an insane 48.1 opponent field goal percentage. Richard Hamilton and Allen Iverson combined for 68 points overall and 17-for-17 shooting from the stripe Friday night against the Jazz. AI is a no-brainer, but in 13 percent of ESPN leagues, Hamilton is unowned. If yours is one of them, snatch him immediately and feel confident starting him regularly, as his December stats (21 points per game, 1.5 3s per game, 55.5 percent shooting from the floor, 89.6 percent shooting from the stripe) are closer to what you should expect from him than his 16 points per game in November. Rodney Stuckey getting the starting nod and shifting the rest of the lineup up has had positive fantasy value for several players, and Rip is one of them, now that he's playing small forward.
Waiver-wire pickups
Kendrick Perkins scored a career-high 25 points on 12-for-15 shooting with eight rebounds Friday night, and his six double-digit scoring games so far in December are more than he's had the rest of the season combined. The combination of the momentum from Friday's huge night and playing the Knicks should equal an above-average performance from Perkins on Sunday. Flip Murray scored 20 points with three 3s in 22 minutes in Friday's contest and is always a risky play who can earn you a big scoring night. With Sunday's light schedule, you can afford to spot-start him if you've got him, although on a night with more games and more options, he's bench/waiver material. If you have rotating roster spots, the strategy of utilizing them on light days is key. The Thunder are riding the high of their third win of the season and signing Nenad Krstic (who will have fantasy impact almost immediately), and Desmond Mason has been playing his best basketball of the season. He started Friday night in place of Damien Wilkins, and scored seven points with 10 rebounds and a steal. He doesn't shoot 3s and is an option only in very deep leagues, although if he continues to start, he'll etch out minimal value in points, rebounds and steals. It looks like Antonio McDyess will earn about 25 minutes per game, enough to give him value in deep leagues. He averaged 8.5 rebounds, 0.7 blocks and 0.8 steals with 48.8 percent shooting in 29 minutes per game last season, so expecting slightly less from him is a fair bet.

Poem Title:
"Only a pound," said the auctioneer, "Only a pound; and I'm standing here Selling this animal, gain or loss -- Only a pound for the drover's horse? One of the sort that was ne'er afraid, One of the boys of the Old Brigade; Thoroughly honest and game, I'll swear, Only a little the worse for wear; Plenty as bad to be seen in town, Give me a bid and I'll knock him down; Sold as he stands, and without recourse, Give me a bid for the drover's horse." Loitering there in an aimless way Somehow I noticed the poor old grey, Weary and battered and screwed, of course; Yet when I noticed the old grey horse, The rough bush saddle, and single rein Of the bridle laid on his tangled mane, Straighway the crowd and the auctioneer Seemed on a sudden to disappear, Melted away in a kind if haze -- For my heart went back to the droving days. Back to the road, and I crossed again Over the miles of the saltbush plain -- The shining plain that is said to be The dried-up bed of an inland sea. Where the air so dry and so clear and bright Refracts the sun with a wondrous light, And out in the dim horizon makes The deep blue gleam of the phantom lakes. At dawn of day we could feel the breeze That stirred the boughs of the sleeping trees, And brought a breath of the fragrance rare That comes and goes in that scented air; For the trees and grass and the shrubs contain A dry sweet scent on the saltbush plain. for those that love it and understand The saltbush plain is a wonderland, A wondrous country, were Nature's ways Were revealed to me in the droving days. We saw the fleet wild horses pass, And kangaroos through the Mitchell grass; The emu ran with her frightened brood All unmolested and unpursued. But there rose a shout and a wild hubbub When the dingo raced for his native scrub, And he paid right dear for his stolen meals With the drovers' dogs at his wretched heels. For we ran him down at a rattling pace, While the pack-horse joined in the stirring chase. And a wild halloo at the kill we'd raise -- We were light of heart in the droving days. 'Twas a drover's horse, and my hand again Made a move to close on a fancied rein. For I felt a swing and the easy stride Of the grand old horse that I used to ride. In drought or plenty, in good or ill, The same old steed was my comrade still; The old grey horse with his honest ways Was a mate to me in the droving days. When we kept our watch in the cold and damp, If the cattle broke from the sleeping camp, Over the flats and across the plain, With my head bent down on his waving mane, Through the boughs above and the stumps below, On the darkest night I could let him go At a racing speed; he would choose his course, And my life was safe with the old grey horse. But man and horse had a favourite job, When an outlaw broke from the station mob; With a right good will was the stockwhip plied, As the old horse raced at the straggler's side, And the greenhide whip such a weal would raise -- We could use the whip in the droving days. ----------------- "Only a pound!" and was this the end -- Only a pound for the drover's friend. The drover's friend that has seen his day, And now was worthless and cast away With a broken knee and a broken heart To be flogged and starved in a hawker's cart. Well, I made a bid for a sense of shame And the memories of the good old game. "Thank you? Guinea! and cheap at that! Against you there in the curly hat! Only a guinea, and one more chance, Down he goes if there's no advance, Third, and last time, one! two! three!" And the old grey horse was knocked down to me. And now he's wandering, fat and sleek, On the lucerne flats by the Homestead Creek; I dare not ride him for fear he's fall, But he does a journey to beat them all, For though he scarcely a trot can raise, He can take me back to the droving days.

Hi there,
One of my WordPress installs was working fine until I tried to upgrade to 2.7 and I persistently got a white screen when trying to do anything in the admin panel. I tried all of the solutions I could find, and none helped. I created an xml export file of all posts and have the template file I want to use.
However, since I reverted to an earlier version (2.6.5) I've only been able to see half of my dashboard (see here - there is no footer appearing), and have no options in the import menu (see here). I'm really not sure what could be causing this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- The chief designer of the new, $6.4 billion eastern span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge says more than 2,000 bolts and rods on the span do not need to be replaced.
The bolts and rods were called into question after 32 other bolts cracked when they were tightened last year.
But bridge designer Marwan Nader told bridge oversight officials at a meeting on Thursday that the other 2,200 bolts and rods on the span are likely to be more corrosion-resistant than the 32 that failed.
Although they will need extra protection against corrosion, Nader said they can remain in place.
A final decision about replacing at least some of the remaining bolts is still pending. But according to the San Francisco Chronicle (http://bit.ly/1o02lDa), Steve Heminger, chairman of the bridge oversight panel, said he was encouraged by Nader's assessment.
