Want to Review a Different Internship?
4.3 of 5 stars
Kansas City, KS
I really enjoyed working with actual engineers and being treated as though I was a full member of the team rather than just an intern.
I felt as though the job I was given to complete over the summer was not enough work. I would work for about half the day and then I wouldn't know what to do with the other half because I wasn't given enough little projects to fill all my days.
I would suggest taking advantage of all the intern events that Garmin offers.
I was asked what I knew about the company and then I was asked about applications of simple data structures, like queues and stacks.
I found this review helpful (0)

i love the fact that i can, and have designed things that have been implemented on a global scale.
i don't like how a lot of the ambitious designs get modified to be very "basic" and behind current design standards or outdated.
Garmin is an awesome place to work especially as an intern, the projects are very rewarding with the real life products that you are placed on.
I'm not really sure what management could do, everything seems very good to me.
What are some projects you have worked on at CAPS?Why do you think you would be good at UX?What were some challenges on any current design projects?
4.4 of 5 stars
Great pay, benefits, and atmosphere.
Enough money in the budget to hire hundreds of intern but not enough to hire many of them full time.
Work hard and network while your there.
The work I am doing I consider to be very interesting. The team I am working with is great, and the pay is not bad either.
The required intern presentations near the end of the usual internship.
It is a corporate environment, but one of the best I have seen and worked in. Go in expecting to meaningfully contribute to a project that will be released.
While the compensation is perfectly reasonable, I do not know any one that would turn down more pay.
4.6 of 5 stars
Having a great team and being able to make a lot of new friends. Additionally, I learned a lot that I would not have otherwise picked up in my classes.
Some of the intern-specific tasks are not as enjoyable as I wished they would be. Also, I have a hard time keeping up with all of the aviation terms.
It is almost better to know nothing about how to do your job coming in, it is meant to be a learning experience, and you want to make sure that you get something out of it that you could not have gotten elsewhere.
Doing real work on real projects that span multiple teams and disciplines. Friendly and helpful coworkers, great benefits, fun times.
Depending on what you work on, certain tasks may get monotonous.
Garmin has a great culture, relaxed, good work-life balance. The location is nice, too.
Software Development, C language, relaxed culture, Kansas City area, free housing
There were no cons for me
The people at Garmin are all very knowledgeable and nice
The whole office culture was excellent.
The verification work did seem to drag out a little bit, but when you're rushing up against deadlines, it's expected.
It's a great place to work. Relax, be yourself, and have fun. They treat everyone well and give people a place to fit in.
An additional progress report or feedback on work effort might be helpful during the summer.
Pros:1. Real-world projects: If I had not been doing that work, a full-time employee would have been. 2. Company culture: My team was really open to including me in walks, lunches, etc., and they were always willing to answer my questions and help expose me to new things (tour of the hanger, sitting in on design reviews, team meetings…).3. Financial benefits: Not only was I making $22/hour, but I also did not have to pay for housing (nor did I have to find a place to live in an unfamiliar city). On top of that, I also received paid time off and discounts on products. 4. Involvement opportunities: Garmin put on multiple events just for interns, and there was also a social committee and a community service committee made entirely of interns.
1. I wish I could have received my biggest project earlier in the summer so I would have been able to complete it before going back to school, but we were waiting on parts, which was out of our control. 2. I did not know much at all about the design process when I started my internship, so it would have been helpful to have opportunities to be exposed to design in a more structured teaching setting. That is, I would have appreciated having my mentor or manager provide more guidance during the initial phases of my design so I had some direction when first starting out.
If you're looking for a summer internship that provides valuable real-world experience, great financial incentives, opportunities to become friends with other interns, and a whole lot of fun, Garmin is the place to work.
I had a lot of freedom with my project and got to spend a lot of time doing "real" work.
Sometimes project slowed down as we dealt with the complications that come with working at a larger company.
Garmin is a great place to work, especially those in the engineering fields.

Thomas de Critz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas De Critz or Decritz (1 July 1607 – 22 October 1653) was an English painter.
He was born in London, the son of the Flemish-born painter John de Critz. He worked for the English court and was entrusted with the restoration and cleaning of Charles I's paintings. Decritz also painted the coffered ceiling of the 1653 Double Cube Room at Wilton House, showing the story of Perseus.
Thomas de Critz died in London.

Skip to comments.Obama's Eligibility Diversion
Posted on 02/14/2012 3:17:10 AM PST by Flotsam_Jetsome
Having followed the Obama "natural born" citizenship quandary since its inception, I had always viewed the controversy over Obama's birthplace and other records as a diversion from the real issue: Obama's dual citizenship precluded his constitutional eligibility. My position was also influenced by my desire to elevate discussion on the inextricably related issue of birthright citizenship as a key component in effective immigration reform. Birthright citizenship is the practice of conferring U.S. citizenship to every baby born on U.S. soil, regardless of the nationality, domicile, or legal status of its parents. The practice, seen by many as an illegal immigration magnet, also often results in the dilemma of double allegiance, a "supra-citizen" status held by millions of Americans. Although the State Department rarely enforces its policies discouraging dual citizenship, it does recognize its security clearance implications. And the department confirmed that Obama was born a dual citizen.

It must be really exhausting running around trying to hide the truth and keep up with all the lies about this man. I can't imagine how many people it takes.
In the society we live in, where we want to know every little detail about famous and infamous people, the people covering for him must feel like they are playing with that toy slime. You have two cups of slime and you're trying to contain it in a single cup. It just keeps spilling over and down the sides. As soon as you rake it up one side, it slimes down another.
Americans have a right to know any and everything about whoever is in the WH making the decisions that affect us and our descendants.
Delighted even Americanthinker publishes on this issue.
Until the lamestream wakes up and does the job, obozo will get away with it, or we vote out the usurper then prosecute him!
During the period 2003 - 2008 there we're 8 Congressional attempts to remove the Aricle 2, Secion 1, Clause 5 requirement for a Presidential candidate to be a Natural Born citizen of the US. These attempts were mostly by Democrats, Vic Snyder of Arkansas, John Conyers of Michigan, and Claire McCaskill of Oklahoma. These were in the forms of resolutions to be developed into Constitutional amendments. They all were worded in various forms that the candidate only needed to be a US citizen for periods of 14 years, 20 years or 35 years. The question is why was all this activity initiated during the rise to power of Barack Obama?
Good article. Each week, month, year that has passed . . . still amazes AND saddens me. What is wrong with our Congress, judges, and the media? Are they really that afraid of a race war or riots? I hope the truth comes out one of these days before I die.
Is Obama eligible?" is a legitimate question. But so is "Who is Obama?" And further, "Who is backing him?"
Is Obama eligible?, is the threshold legal question and should be the center of focus. The other two questions are primarily political in nature and become nonissues in the event the former is answered in the negative (except as they may lead to a formal criminal investigation).
The threshold question includes at once both birthplace and the foreign father element. The former most likely will be resolved when a state finds the political courage to ask for certified birth documents delivered from HI. Failing that, we may be left hoping the 2013 Joint Session of Congress will do the job the 2009 Joint Session refused to do.
The second of the two inseparable elements, the foreign father, is not difficult to understand but, unfortunately,also depends on a Congress willing to honor its oath of office, or a rational decision from a politically split USSC.
As Andrew Breitbart recently stated, this is not your mother's democratic party. Libs living a lie, and supporting one to the detriment of liberty and prosperity...
Occidental is not that big a college and it seems very strange that no one seems to remember him. Certainly other foreign students would have known his status and even other classmates would have had some knowledge of who he was. The only evidence of his time at Occidental were those photos of a cocky and arrogant looking young man in a Panama hat with a cigarette dangling from his lips. His time at Columbia and Harvard are also phantom like with again no one seeming to remember him. Obama seems to have a past that is largely a fabrication.
The only people who don't want to disclose the truth are people with something to hide. Barry Dunham
Wild Bill for America -
Secret Service Secrets
What the Secret Service agents say about past and present Presidents.
The US State Dept. can _only_ "confirm" alleged US citizenship, _not_ UK citizenship.
Did the US State Dept. contact the UK Foreign Office and request confirmation that Barry was documented to be a UK subject at birth? There is no evidence of that.
Only the UK could "confirm" that Barry was born a UK subject. However, under the 1948 BNA, UK citizenship passes _only_ to the legitimate children of UK subjects, and children of bigamous marriages are _not_ legitimate and would _not_ be UK subjects at birth.
The State Dept. need only look in the INS files on BHO Sr. to find that Sr. was deported specifically _because_ his marriage to SADO was assumed to be a sham, given the documentation in the INS files that Sr. had a wife and children in Kenya.
Now these facts (INS docs on Sr. and bigamous marriage as the cause of deportation) have been entered into the court record as evidence in the GA eligibility case. This evidence of probable bigamy undermines the claim that Barry was born a UK subject at birth.
How many times does the "Pakistan Travel Ban" need to be debunked?
Oh, but nevermind THAT! Let us go with that bit of invented history and taken that as a given - assume he had a foreign passport - and then require evidence of a U.S. passport - all based upon a bogus claim from years ago that only the absolutely uninformed or ill-informed are still clinging too.
I state as fact that there was no requirement for him to have a passport OTHER THAN a U.S. passport to travel to Pakistan - because the supposed travel ban is an invention.
An invention that YEARS LATER - people still believe.
Why do they still believe that invention? Because they don't want to know the truth? Because speaking the truth gets rabid birther dogs sicked on them? Because birthers would rather hold onto an attractive lie than be confronted with the truth?
Why do birthers still believe in a Pakistan travel ban?
Because they are stupid?
Because they are uninformed?
Because birther sources lie to them?
What is the answer?
Attacking me isn't the answer.
To Mark Steyn: Citizenship, its rights and responsibilities, and presidential eligibility are more than merely "rinky-dink" technicalities.
As are voter id laws...
All is Well. Remain Calm
I can't help but channel Kevin Bacon from Animal House while reading the news that 1.8 million dead people are registered to vote.
Remember: We don't need Voter ID laws because our system is sound as...well, a dollar...
I guess this is the progressive's strategy in getting a failed radical POTUS re-elected.
1. In 2008, Obama's campaign web site confirmed that his status at birth was governed by British law.
2. INS makes distinction between a native-born and a natural-born citizen.
How do you explain that?
How do you know that Obama had US passport in 1981? Where is the evidence? There is none. It is your speculation that he travelled using US passport.
School records from Indonesia list Barry as Indonesian citizen. We also know that his name was erased from his mother's US passport. How do you know that he did not use Indonesian passport?
I don't think the bigamy changes anything. IF BO Senior was his biological father, it doesn't matter whether they were married or not . . . whether he was a bastard . . . or illegitimate or whatever they called them back in the 1960's. It just says two parents who are citizens, doesn't matter their marital status. BHO Senior was still not an American citizen.
Wrong. At the time, Pakistan was allied with the US (and India was regarded as Soviet-leaning). Pakistan was safer for Americans then than it is now.
Occidental is not that big a college and it seems very strange that no one seems to remember him.
Obama seems to have a past that is largely a fabrication.
His commie background is more covered up than fabricated. The MSM refuses investigate it diligently, because they know its proper exposure would sink him. It will be interesting to see what Andrew Breitbart has.
How about You? Here is some truth.
"Because birthers would rather hold onto an attractive lie than be confronted with the truth?"
That one gets my vote.
This picture should be on billboards with the Heading "Are you a taxpayer?"
In 04 my Mom called me, she lives in South Florida with all other retired Mom's, and asked me about the upcoming election. She is a died in the wool democrat. I said "Mom, Bush is left of JFK." And went down the list....needless to say she is now a registered republican.
There is a picture of Zippo at Occi floating around somewhere. There is also a 999 social security number attached to him out there as well. Those were given to foriegn students receiving FA.
At this point, I don't feel ANY revelations about Baraq would really affect his 2012 campaign.
This election will be about givers vs. takers. Can't see the takers caring one whit if Baraq was a registered Communist and was on the payroll of the USSR in the 80s, or anything similar.
Using the "original intent" of the founders, IMO was to prevent a dual citizen from becoming CIC. If Barry is not a dual citizen under the BNA of 1948 which would explicitly exclude him from being a UK subject if he was illegitimate, then there would be no dual citizenship and no conflict with the founders intent.
Using "strict construction" of the Minor case NBC definition of "parents who are citizens" it could be inferred that SCOTUS could rule against Barry for having a non-US citizen sperm donor not legally married to his mother. But I would expect SCOTUS to go with original intent and not strict construction.
IMO, there is no on-point SCOTUS case matching the fact pattern of Barry's alleged birth circumstances and nationality of parents, especially since mothers were allowed to retain their own citizenship beginning in 1922 if they legally married an alien, which was not the case when MvH or WKA were decided.
The entire US legal and congressional establishment chose to nullify any insinuation that Barry was not NBC provided he was born in HI by virtue of his US citizen mother, analogous to a jury nullification of a law that the jury doesn't agree should be applied on a particular case. IMO, all federal courts, including SCOTUS would give Barry a Mulligan and declare him NBC...provided he was born on US soil.
Back to the thread.
. . . . Check out # 31 .
Thank you for the reply. I think I like the "strict construction" sperm donor scenario and rule against him the best. What a mess.
"2. INS makes distinction between a native-born and a natural-born citizen. How do you explain that?"
Barry and his campaign lie all day every day! Back in 2008, Barry was running on the narrative of "the improbable love" between his two parents made possible by the civil rights movement and Selma and other lies. It was crucial for his parents to actually BE married for this romantic narrative to resonate with the black community and liberals, despite the Ayers facilitated admission by Barry in Dreams that he wasn't sure his parents, actually were married.
IMO Barry's campaign decided that it was more valuable for his parents to be married and in love than it was risky for Barry to expose himself to charges that he was not NBC. So far this strategy has worked perfectly.
Yes, INS does make a distinction between native-born and NBC and nothing I have written contradicts that, or shouldn't.
Unfortunately for Barry, his behavior betrays consciousness of guilt that he was NOT born in the USA, and Sheriff Joe Arpaio could yet Barry removed from office if it can be proved that Barry knew he was not born in the USA and hid it.
Just posted a similar thought...
I for one, am truly shocked...
Attacking me isn't the answer.
I did not say even once that 0bama had a U.S. passport. I pointed out that the birther's concocted reason for him needing an OTHER THAN U.S. passport is an easily debunked LIE.
Now why do birthers, three years after the fact, still go around believing easily debunked LIES!?!?!!?
Because rabid birther attack dogs are scicked on anyone who dares to mention the truth?
Because birthers are stupid?
Because they are uninformed?
Because birther sources lie to them?
Because they would rather believe an easily debunked lie than be confronted with the truth?
Attacking me isn't the answer.
Apparently other than that, you don't have an answer.
Are you incurious why obvious and blatant lies are still passed around like baseball cards among birhters?
I am curious.
I find it quite curious.
Are they just stupid, or attempting to discredit the movement by pretending to be stupid?
Seeings as how the most ludicrous racist and untruthful statements of anyone purporting to be a birthers are all held sacrosanct and the wagons circled around them by birthers - I would say that birthers are particularly vulnerable to such false flag operations.
"Did the US State Dept. contact the UK Foreign Office and request confirmation that Barry was documented to be a UK subject at birth? There is no evidence of that.
Only the UK could confirm that Barry was born a UK subject. However, under the 1948 BNA, UK citizenship passes _only_ to the legitimate children of UK subjects, and children of bigamous marriages are _not_ legitimate and would _not_ be UK subjects at birth."
I did a UK FoIA request. But the UK government professed to know nothing.
In due time, the will pay for that lie.
Moreover I don't need to say that he had or has a U.S. Passport in order to point out that the "Pakistan Travel Ban" is an ignorant lie.
Why so much animosity when I point out the truth?
Attacking me isn't the answer?
Now why do birthers believe something obviously untrue about a Pakistan Travel ban?
Because if anyone dares to mention the truth they will get attacked by irrational idiots who lie about what they said?
Sure seems to be my experience!
"Barack was also worried about what his father would think because I was so young, but he gave us his approval. He sent my mother and father 14 cows for my dowry. "Barack's father was only a cook so it was a big sacrifice. Very soon after, we were married.
" That was January 1957. Kezia and Barack Snr set up home in Jericho, a section of Nairobi created for government employees, and began a family. First son Roy was born in March 1958. Kezia insisted:"Barack was a good husband.
" By the summer of 1959, he was bound for Hawaii, leaving Kezia three months pregnant with Auma. Kezia said: "I went with him to the airport. He gave me a cuddle and I was crying.
"He said, 'Bye bye, see you later when I come back.'
" Instead, Barack Sr met Barack Jr's mother, Ann, in Honolulu. She was an 18-year-old fellow student from Kansas and within months they were united in what appears to have been a bigamist marriage.
end quote
In the INS files, IIRC a U of HI administrator complains to INS that BHO Sr. is jumping co-eds even though he is known to be married back in Kenya and when questioned, he told the administrator that yes he was married, but he had used the expedient of a Muslim divorce by telling his wife three times "I divorce you."
There is no proof that BHO Sr. was a practicing Muslin and there is lots of evidence that he was a hard-drinking atheist. There is no evidence that his marriage to Kezia was Muslim (she reports it was tribal) and neither of his two children with Kezia were raised Muslim (Roy converted to Islam as an adult.
IMO, BHO Sr. was lying both about bein Muslim and about there being any divorce when he tried to justify jumping co-eds in HI. There is no evidence that BHO Srs. marriage to SADO was a Muslim plural marriage and it would have been illegal in HI if it was...and also an HI plural Muslim marriage (which it wasn't, IMO) would have been illegal back in Kenya because UK law doesn't recognize foreign marriages that are illegal where performed.
Further evidence of proof of the continuing marriage to Kezia is the letter in the Stanford archive written after the alleged marriage to SADO (1964?) in which BHO Sr. asked Tom Mboya to provide support his wife in Kenya.
The INS files show that INS and Harvard administrators believed so strongly that BHO Sr. was a predatory bigamist that this belief formed the basis for BHO Sr. being deported BEFORE he could complete his degree. The INS files also show BHO Sr. acknowledged Roy as his son, but NOT Barry, on one form (1964?).
All of this is strong circumstantial evidence that Kezia and BHO Sr. had a tribal marriage and there was never a divorce prior to his "marriages" to SADO or Ruth N.
I was going to warn you that if you didnt cease this Obottery of asking rational questions, I would be forced to post a derogatory picture.
But it looks like I have been beaten to the punch.
In 1961, Kenyatta was released from prison right before Barry was allegedly born (in Kenya?) and independence was a forgone conclusion.
Did you find out (or does anyone else know...) whether copies of birth records from Kenya Colony and Protectorate were routinely sent back to the UK, or were they simply retained in the colony?
On the off chance that Barry was born in HI (Ha!) and BHO Sr. acted to get him recognized as a Kenyan UK subject, would the records of that recognition be in both the UK and Kenya, or just in Kenya?
I am wondering whether the mystery trip of BNO Sr. to HI in 1971 involved getting Barry recognized as a Kenyan citizen...a citizen of the newly independent Kenya and NOT a UK colony.

Okay, I just installed 2.1 and already I'm having a hard time with formatting posts right. My method of writing posts has always been to open up the HTML quickly, plunk in an image using some parameters I have set-up in my CSS, then going purely with the Rich Text editing. Now it seems like it's all been supplanted by an HTML box and a pressed return no longer makes a paragraph, but now just a standard break.
Also, when I plunk in a link, I'm no longer given the option to have it open in another window.
Is there a way to get this functionality again, is it hidden somewhere in there without my knowing?
UPDATE: the paragraph thing is a non-issue, apparently 2.1 converts two carriage returns to a paragraph separation once the entry is posted, but the others remain!

Cardio on the bellicon
The bellicon guide to a healthy cardio relationship
Every major health organization, government health agency, and private physician will tell you the same thing: "The best thing for your heart is exercise."
We all know this, but few of us put it into practice either because we can't find the time, or we think it would be too difficult (or boring), or we think we're too out of shape to get started. If any of this sounds familiar, we've got a solution for you.
The bellicon rebounder is not only the best and most convenient way to exercise your heart, it's also fun.
While giving your cardiovascular system the blood flow and oxygen it needs to be strong, you will also be strengthening your muscles, lubricating your joints, improving your balance, stimulating your lymphatic system, and hardening your bones. Instead of avoiding the issue, you'll be able to enjoy the process…along with the benefits of a healthier heart and a more energetic life.
Your Heart is going to Love this
The American Heart Association says that, "the simplest, most positive thing you can do to improve your heart health is to begin doing aerobic (i.e. cardiovascular) exercise."
In a U.S. News and World Report special feature on fitness, developed with Duke University School of Medicine, they repeat the AHA's recommendation for cardio exercise, and added: "There are three primary categories of exercise:
Activities that promote cardiovascular health (aerobic)
Activities that build strength
Activities that increase flexibility and balance"
You'll get the benefit of all three of these with every bellicon workout. (We'd like to see a treadmill or stair-climber do that for you!)
Why is the bellicon so effective?
Our mini-trampoline is able to offer so many benefits because of the way the human body reacts to jumping on the bellicon's uniquely designed suspension system.
Every bounce engages and strengthens all of the 638 muscles in your body, along with your heart, lungs, bones and lymphatic system. The up and down motion, ranging from as much as 4 Gs of force as the bottom of the bounce to zero Gs at the top, allows the cells in your body to be flushed of impurities and soak up nutrients. It also accelerates your lymphatic system's removal of toxins, bacteria and dead cells, cleansing you at the molecular level. A bellicon workout also improves your digestion and even (studies show) improves your mental capacity.
It's almost impossible to find another exercise that is as comprehensive and beneficial as a workout on a bellicon rebounder.
How Much Exercise Do I Need?
The Mayo Clinic and the National Institute for Health suggest that you engage in aerobic activity for 30 minutes, five times per week, although you can achieve some of the benefits of cardio conditioning with lesser amounts of time.
They also mention that breaking up that time throughout the day into 10 minute sessions will achieve the same results, which is perfect for the bellicon. We encourage bellicon owners to leave their rebounders out where they can see them, so that they are more likely to take short "belli-breaks" of 10 minutes or so throughout the day. These mini-workouts are not only energizing and invigorating, but they add up to wonderful long-term health and fitness gains, including a more efficient cardiovascular system.
Of course, the amount of exercise that's right for you depends on your health and physical condition. Make sure that you consult with your doctor before beginning any exercise program, particularly if you have a heart condition.
Make The Leap
...Your Heart Will Love You For It
The Center for Disease Control says that 1 in 3 American adults have high blood pressure and that almost another third have prehypertension. Not only that, but "69% of people who have a first heart attack, 77% of people who have a first stroke, and 74% of people with chronic heart failure have high blood pressure."
These statistics are frightening, but fortunately there are many things we can do to prevent high blood pressure. Along with a better diet and maintaining a healthy weight, the CDC says, "Be physically active. Physical activity can help lower blood pressure…control your weight, (and) reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease." "Regular physical activity is one of the most important things you can do for your health."
TAKE HEART! Your health and fitness can improve with gentle, moderate-level exercise regardless of your age, weight, or present physical condition. When beginning a new workout routine, remember to start slowly: even a few minutes a day of cardiovascular exercise can make a world of difference to your overall health and well-being.
"Studies show that people who stay physically active enjoy a higher quality of life overall than those with sedentary lifestyles and reap numerous benefits that include: Improved overall cardiovascular health due to increased strength and resiliency in the heart muscle, arteries, and blood vessels."

The bellicon is a dream to jump on
It raises my heart rate to an aerobic state (which is my main concern). I wear a heart rate monitor to ensure my session reaches the cardio state.

SEOUL, Oct. 24 (Yonhap) -- South Korea criticized Japan Thursday for its latest ruling against South Koreans who called for the removal of their relatives' names from those listed at a controversial war shrine in Tokyo.
A day earlier, the Tokyo High Court dismissed the appeal of a group of 10 South Koreans -- nine relatives of deceased servicemen and civilian employees who served imperial Japanese forces during its 1910-45 colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula, and a former civilian employee, 88, who is alive but whose name is enshrined at the Yasukuni Shrine.
"Japan has made incomprehensible rulings and decisions. The enshrinement that glorifies its imperialistic history seriously damages the personality of the people," said Cho Tai-young, the spokesman of the South Korean foreign ministry, in a briefing.
Expressing "deep regret over the thoughtless decision against humanity," he stressed that the South Korean government bears high interests in the issue and vowed continued support for the plaintiffs.
Yasukuni arbitrarily lists the names of about 21,000 Koreans who were forced into military service and killed during World War II.
Back in 1959, the 10 Koreans were listed at the shrine, which honors many convicted Class A war criminals along with millions of Japanese war dead and is viewed here as symbolizing Japan's imperial past.
Upholding the ruling by the Tokyo District Court in July 2011, the high court said the plaintiffs argue their feelings have been hurt but they need to "show tolerance of others' freedom of religion."
Japan's unrepentant attitude over its 20th-century wartime atrocities in Asia has been a cause of strained relations between the two neighbors.

Tom Daley and Oldham divers protest over lack of diving plans
- 16 April 2013
- From the section Manchester
Divers in Oldham have said council plans to close the area's only diving pool are "harsh".
Oldham Council plans to close four sports centres and build two new ones, neither with a pool for board or underwater diving.
Oldham Sub-Aqua Club has collected 3,000 signatures, including that of Olympic bronze medal diver Tom Daley, in protest against the lack of a pool.
Oldham Council's Hugh McDonald said he would "work to find a solution".
The plans, which go before the council's cabinet on 22 April, will see Royton and Oldham sports centres closed and replaced by new centres in the towns. Glodwick and Crompton pools will also be closed.
The closure of the facilities at Oldham will mean both board and underwater divers will have to travel to Manchester Aquatics Centre or Bury's Castle Leisure Centre to use a suitable pool, which Oldham Sub-Aqua Club's Dave Hackman said needs to be 4m (13ft) in depth.
'Best value for money'
Mr Hackman said the current pool was used "extensively" by sub-aqua and diving clubs.
"It's a facility that we have had for 30 years and it seems harsh to lose it," he said.
"What we've asked for all along is just a deeper end to the normal pool - we don't want anything too fancy.
"We realise in the current climate that they can't afford a separate pool."
A council spokesman said other options had been considered, such as a learner pool with a moveable floor which could have doubled as a diving pool.
Both the new Oldham and Royton centres will have 25m (82ft) pools and learner pools, with Oldham also having facilities including a sports hall and indoor bowls hall.
Mr McDonald, cabinet member for education and safeguarding, said the council had "asked for other options to be fully investigated on the basis of costs, benefits and demand - [they] were not agreed for a range of reasons".
He added that "alternative facilities were available in Manchester and Bury" and the plans offered "the very best value for money at a time when we have to find additional budget savings of £7.5m".

LETTER: Girls' behavior ruined son's graduation
Published: Sunday, June 3, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 1, 2012 at 8:06 p.m.
Dear Editor: Not everyone will know of this incident, but anyone who attended the 9 a.m. commencement at the University of Alabama May 5 will completely understand. My husband and I had come to watch our son graduate, as well as watch our friends' children.
We were surrounded by the sisters of Delta Sigma Theta. Anytime one of the DST sisters was announced, these girls stood, screamed, yelled, held their hands out in a Delta symbol. One of these young ladies was in line just before our son to walk across the stage. As her name was called, the whole group again stood, making so much noise that we did not hear our son's name called nor were we able to see him walk across the stage because of all the girls standing. I began to cry and told the girls I had not heard our son's name called, and one of the girls said, "Well you could have moved," and the other girls began to laugh.
While I can understand the pride in your sorority sisters graduating, this was not a football game. The behavior of these women told everyone that they did not have any consideration for anyone but themselves. Their rudeness gave Delta Sigma Theta a very, very poor image that Saturday. They took a day that should have been filled with happiness and pride and turned it into a very sad memory.

Oral health is an important component of overall health and well-being. Most dental problems are preventable. Preventive care, including regular check-ups and cleanings, is the key to maintaining good oral health. Problems can be diagnosed early and treated without extensive testing or elaborate and expensive procedures. Additionally, regular dental check-ups may surface other health issues. Macalester offers two dental insurance plan options through Delta Dental.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is eligible to be covered under Macalester's dental plans?
Any regular Macalester employee scheduled to work 1007.50+ hours (0.50 full time equivalent (FTE) or higher) is eligible for coverage.
Who can I add to my dental plan?
- Spouse
- Registered domestic partner (see Declaration of Domestic Partnership form)
- Dependent children (up to age 26; see IRS guidelines)
- Other legal dependents (see IRS guidelines)
What is the difference between "PPO", "Delta Premier" and "out of network" providers/doctors?
"PPO" and "Delta Premier" are networks of providers with Delta Dental. A provider in one of these networks will provide coverage typically provides the full benefit allowed under the plan.
"Out of network" coverage allows you to see any provider/doctor of your choosing, however at a lower benefit level (higher cost to you).
Can I choose my own dentist?
Yes. Similar to the medical plans, you can choose any dentist you would like. However under the dental plans, benefit levels are determined whether your dentist is a Delta Dental PPO, Delta Dental Premiere or Out-of-Network participating dentist. To review your dentist's participation level with Delta Dental Go to Delta Dental of Minnesota - Dentist Search.
Can I elect Preventive Dental for myself and Comprehensive Dental for my dependents?
No. All participants must be covered by the same dental insurance.
Can I participate in a health plan and not elect to participate in dental through Delta Dental?
Yes. Employees participating in a health plan can elect to have no dental insurance coverage. All dental coverage is separate from the health plan and is through Delta Dental.
Will I receive a new dental insurance card?
Participants who change their dental insurance election will receive new dental insurance cards from Delta Dental.
What if I would like access to complete dental services such as filings, restorative services, orthodontic services, etc.?
If you would like access to comprehensive dental services, you can elect the Delta Dental "Comprehensive Dental" coverage option.

There are a few questions about win 8 laptops having sleep problems. Mine is a desktop (so power options with batteries and such don't apply) and also my issue might be different.
My system is only about 6 months old. Pretty much every day now, whether I told the computer to go to sleep myself or just let it fall asleep from idling, I come back hours later and it's completely unresponsive. Sometimes the monitor is blank, but usually it's on, with a frozen image of the lock screen on it. It's weird because the screen will go blank when I put it to sleep, then suddenly come back on again when the system freezes up. I have to hard reboot to get it out of this state.
My motherboard is an ASRock Z77, if that helps. Video card is a GTX 570 - I tried looking for newer drivers but didn't find anything. I've kept up to date on Win 8 patches too.

Hi, do you have a section of the dashboard named, "Custom CSS" or "Edit CSS"?
nope, unable to find such option
Install this Custom CSS Manager plugin and use its section of the dashboard to hold this code:
.blog .hentry a .attachment-post-thumbnail {
-webkit-filter: none;
-moz-filter: none;
-o-filter: none;
-ms-filter: none;
opacity: 1;
-webkit-opacity: 1;
-moz-opacity: 1;
Hi, I'm trying to remove the greyscale from the cirlces specifically. I have already copied the stylesheet into the plugin and changed all the opacities to 1. I have also changed all the filters to none, as suggeted. This method has been sucessful in changing everything else. However, the circles are still showing up faded before I scroll over them.
Nevermind! I fixed the problem by changing the background color.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this too. I would like to get rid of the grayscale of the images. I have the Custom CSS Manager plugin and I have added the code you suggested on top but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there any other way of getting rid of this.
My url is http://www.sharongolod.com
To fixed it I pretty much copied in the whole style sheet and then I changed all the opacities to 1 and set all the filters to 1. That took the hover off of everything, but the circles. To fix that, I changed most of the colors to #000.
I'm pretty sure this will fix it:
.hentry.no-thumbnail {
background: #000;
border-radius: 180px;
overflow: hidden;
transition: background .4s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: background .4s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: background .4s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: background .4s ease-in-out;
word-wrap: break-word;
width: 180px;
max-width: 180px;
height: 180px;
max-height: 180px;
I can't get it to work :( I don't understand why but I've changed the values to what you told me and still nothing.

Publisher's Description
In A Work of Heart, bestselling author and missional expert Reggie McNeal helps leaders reflect on the ways in which God is shaping them by letting us see God at work in the lives of four quintessential biblical leaders: Moses, David, Jesus, and Paul. McNeal identifies the formative influences upon these leaders, which he sees as God's ways of working in their lives: the same influences at work today forming leaders for ministry in our times. He explores the shaping influence of culture, call, community, conflict, and the commonplace.
- Offers guidance for church leaders to let God shape their hearts from the inside out
- Reggie McNeal is the author of the bestselling book Missional Renaissance
- Gives reassurance for maintaining perspective while doing the demanding work of ministry

Ministry Design CoachGreenville, SCAge: 45-54Gender: male4 Stars Out Of 5Book Review: A Work of Heart by Reggie McNealNovember 10, 2011Ministry Design CoachGreenville, SCAge: 45-54Gender: maleQuality: 4Value: 4Meets Expectations: 4This review was written for A Work of Heart: Understanding How God Shapes Spiritual Leaders.A Work of Heart: Understanding How God Shapes Spiritual Leaders (Updated Version) by Reggie McNeal
Spiritual leadership is a work of heart. That is the focus of this book as it takes us on a journey through the spiritual development of four biblical characters, two from the Old Testament (Moses and David) and two from the New Testament (Jesus and Paul) then part two discusses the six areas of a leader's life that are used to develop him spiritually to lead others. These "arenas" are culture, call, community, communion, conflict, and the commonplace. Through the stories of the biblical characters and the "arenas" the writer leads us to marvel at God's design and handiwork in our own life to make us a great person and not just a great leader.
For those of us that have been focusing on the functions of a leader this is a strong reminder to refocus our attention to our own spiritual development so we can properly lead others to develop in their relationship with God. The flip side of that coin is the warning that is given in the book to those to neglect their heart development will reap the rewards of that inattention. He lists the fruit of our neglect as ranging from "spiritual powerlessness to lackluster leadership to spiritual bankruptcy. The lesson is if we pay attention to our spiritual development through our personal relationship with Christ and partner with Him in our own "heart-shaping" we avoid many of the pitfalls and reap many of the blessings. Make certain we intentionally look after our own hearts while dealing with the hearts of others.
The book is well written and challenges the reader page to page and paragraph to paragraph. I believe you will find this volume an added help to your leadership efforts as you serve Christ in an ever changing world.

I normally subscribe to the principle that the person making the claim supplies the evidence, and God knows, Sandie is not a reliable source. At best he's delusional, at worst a compulsive liar.I did do a cursory search, because I thought maybe there was the chance of an interesting bit of United history I'd missed out on.Sod all. He's lying or deluded. As usual. It would just be interesting to get a confirmation as to which.

I am hoping someone lovely may be able to help me.
Ive looked through previous resolved posts on this issue and tried all fixes but none have worked for our website.
We have product variations for our products (those which are short dated food items are at a reduced price to long dated) but although the selection appears correctly, the "Add to Cart" button has not appeared.
This is on FIREFOX and SAFARI ONLY.
All works OK on Internet Explorer.
This seems to have happened since an update (although im not sure which) as it was previously working with no problems on all browsers.
We are running the Artificer theme on WP 3.8.
Currently I have tried the following:
- Amended the add-to-cart-variation.min.js file code:
if ( !all_variations )
all_variations = window["product_variations_" + product_id];
- Copied the add-to-cart-variation.min.js file to match the add-to-cart-variation.js file.
- deactivated all plugins one by one
- changed the name of the files jquery.cookie.js and jquery.cookie.min.js to jquery-cookie.js and jquery-cookie.min.js and added code to Functions.php file:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_frontend_scripts' );
function custom_frontend_scripts() {
global $post, $woocommerce;
$suffix = defined( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG' ) && SCRIPT_DEBUG ? '' : '.min';
wp_deregister_script( 'jquery-cookie' );
wp_register_script( 'jquery-cookie', $woocommerce->plugin_url() . '/assets/js/jquery-cookie/jquery_cookie' . $suffix . '.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.3.1', true );
- Added this code to functions.php:
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', 'register_woo_radio_button_scripts' );
- Added this code to functions.php:
function register_woo_radio_button_scripts () {
wp_register_script( 'add-to-cart-variation', plugins_url( get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'woocommerce/assests/js/frontend/add-to-cart-variation.min.js', __FILE__ ), array( 'jquery'), false, true );
- Tried another Theme (Still did not work)
Nothing has worked and Im not stumped as to how to fix this.
Please can someone help? :(

News Picks : Binaries bend planetary disks
05 August 2014
Ars Technica: As giant molecular clouds collapse and shrink, they form stars. In the process, the clouds have to shed angular momentum. More often than not, they do so by breaking up to form two stars that orbit their mutual center of mass. And if either of those stars goes on to form a planetary system, the planets' orbital planes will tend to align with that of the two stars. Rachel Akeson of Caltech and Eric Jensen of Swarthmore College have found that one binary system, HK Tauri, does not fit the alignment paradigm. Both stars in the system have protoplanetary disks. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array to observe the stars in the far-IR, Akeson and Jensen have determined that the two disks are tilted by 60° to 68° with respect to each other. Although their measurement is relative, not absolute, the astronomers can nevertheless conclude that at least one of the protoplanetary disks is misaligned with respect to the binary system's orbital plane. The discovery suggests that planetary orbits can be modified while the planetary system is forming.

ATLANTA (AP) - Greg Maddux finally walked a batter Sunday, but that was the least of his concerns.
Maddux's streak without a walk ended at 72 1-3 innings, and he was pounded for 12 hits in six innings as the slumping Atlanta Braves were routed 9-1 by the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Arizona outscored the Braves 19-2 in the three game series to retake the NL West lead.
Maddux (15-7) fell short of the major league control record, though it was a matter of strategy rather than wildness. Having already allowed three runs in the third inning, the right-hander intentionally walked lefty Steve Finley with first base open.
Giants 7, Cubs 6
CHICAGO (AP) - Rich Aurilia hit a three-run homer off Kevin Tapani (8-9) right after a costly Chicago error and San Francisco won for the 15th time in 17 games.
One day after hitting his 50th homer, Barry Bonds went 1-for-4 with a double off the top of the left-center field fence.
Cardinals 4, Mets 1
NEW YORK (AP) - Mark McGwire hit his 575th career home run, his 11th straight hit to clear the fence, and St. Louis completed a three-game sweep.
McGwire's two-run homer off Bruce Chen (5-6) highlighted a three-run first inning. His 21st home run was his second in two days.
Phillies 3, Dodgers 2
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Rookie Brandon Duckworth (2-0) pitched seven impressive innings and Scott Rolen hit a go-ahead homer as the Philadelphia swept the three-game series and moved back into first place in the NL East.
The Phillies lead the division by themselves for the first time since July 16. They moved one game ahead of Atlanta.
Astros 10, Marlins 5
MIAMI (AP) - Houston made pitcher-friendly Pro Player Stadium look like cozy Enron Field, hitting four home runs to beat Florida.
Lance Berkman, Jeff Bagwell, Daryle Ward and Vinny Castilla all homered as the Astros handed Florida its second series loss at home and first since the season opener against Philadelphia.
The Marlins had won or split their last 17 home series.
Dave Mlicki (3-0) remained undefeated since being traded to Houston from Detroi .
Rockies 7, Reds 6
CINCINNATI (AP) - Juan Pierre's two-out, two run single tied it in the ninth and Juan Uribe singled home the go-ahead run off Danny Graves (5-4) as Colorado rallied against Cincinnati.
The Rockies sent 10 batters to the plate in the five-run ninth to overcome a 6-2 deficit.
Expos 5, Brewers 0
MONTREAL (AP) - Javier Vazquez tied his career high with 11 strikeouts in seven scoreless innings to lead Montreal over Milwaukee.
Vazquez (11-11) allowed four hits and didn't issue a walk as he reached double digits in strikeouts for the second straight game.
Pirates 7, Padres 6
PITTSBURGH (AP) - Aramis Ramirez hit his 25th home run with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning to give Pittsburgh the win over San Diego.

Matt Birk refused White House trip because President Obama is pro-choice
Birk is Catholic and believes abortion is tantamount to "ending lives."
Yesterday, the Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens took the standard trip to the White House to meet, greet, and pose for a photo with President Obama.
SEE ALSO: Jesse Ventura says Obama is basically the black George W. Bush
But the starting center on that team -- St. Paul native and longtime Viking Matt Birk, who announced his retirement after the season -- refused to attend. The reason? A comment Obama made in support of Planned Parenthood during an April speech.
Here's what Obama said:
"As long as we've got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we've got to fight to protect a woman's right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you've also got a president who's going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way. Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you."
During an appearance on KFAN this morning, Birk said he has "great respect for the office of the presidency but about five or six weeks ago, our president made a comment in a speech and he said, 'God bless Planned Parenthood.'" (As Sean Olsen notes in this comment, some think Birk is actually misinterpreting Obama.)
"Planned Parenthood performs about 330,000 abortions a year," Birk continued. "I am Catholic, I am active in the pro-life movement, and I just felt like I couldn't deal with that. I couldn't endorse that in any way."
"For God to bless a place where they're ending 330,000 lives a year? I just chose not to attend," he said.
Birk, of course, also generated ripples last fall when he emerged as the anti-Chris Kluwe and said, "Not all NFL players think redefining marriage is a good thing."
It gets us thinking -- the MNGOP could sure use a fresh face to run against Al Franken or Mark Dayton next year, and as a Harvard graduate with lots of name recognition and deep local roots, Birk sure seems like a promising political prospect, doesn't he?

Auxilliary Power Socket
Hi I drive a 2006 Focus Duratec 1.4. The Auxilliary Power Socket under the dashboard is not working. Is there a fuse or relay I need to change?
Yes it is fused, the fuse is in the fusebox under the glovebox. Can't remember the number though but it should be written in the owners manual. If you haven't got the manual, drop the fusebox down and look at the fuses. Depending of the build date it'll be either a 10 or 20 amp fuse.

No question, stock it.
True to form, everyone in this fine vid gets fucked to oblivion. Yes, the between-scene techno soundtrack is a drag, but with anal plunder aplenty.
There's some regulars that you won't mind seeing again: Melanie Jagger, with her gorgeous tits and deep, deep throat, takes on Talon in a heated scene that leaves all parties juicy; and Ashley Blue, that filthy little cutie, takes on two studs in a wanton display of slutitude. She swallows their cocks all sloppy and beautiful then enjoys a leisurely d.p.
We could go on about how hot this video is. The threesome with newcummer Hollie Stevens and Brooke Balentyne, with plenty of ass-to-mouth raunchy fun (and a cummy lesbian make-out finale) is exceptionally satisfying. The whole video is well-shot and hot.

Halle Berry Picks Up Her Pajama-Clad Daughter From School (Photos)Joanna Mazewski
While the rest of the country is busy voting for the Presidential election, Halle Berry first made sure to go pick up her daughter from school before casting her ballot. Hey, it might be one of the most exciting days of the year but a mother's got to do what a mother's got to do!
Halle was spotted picking up her adorable 4-year-old daughter Nahla from her pre-school and from the looks of these pictures, it was probably pajama day. While in most parts of the country, kids were off from school it looks like Nahla's classes were still in session.
Check out our photos below and let us know what you think!

I'm evaluating/testing a browser based application presumably written in common lisp. Apart from the browser based interface, the software provides a 'Listener' window with a 'CL-User >' REPL prompt.
I wish to examine the list of functions, symbols, and packages from the REPL prompt. So that I could co-relate the frontend functionality with what is exposed via the REPL.
Google search is futile for me as it leads to tutorials and resources that teaches lisp step-by-step.
Any hints, pointers on examining the state via REPL will be much appreciated.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
The 84th Texas Legislature convened in mid-January, and change has come in the wake of the 2014 elections – but not fast enough to satisfy Tea Party adherents who elected more of their eager partisans to the House and Senate. They also elevated one of their own – Sen. Dan Patrick – to the pivotal job of lieutenant governor.
At approximately 9:10 a.m., Beaumont Fire Rescue units responded to a reported apartment fire at 5080 Helbig Rd. There were multiple calls reporting the fire, and when firefighters arrived, they found the living room on fire in one apartment and it was quickly extinguished.
Beaumont firefighters battled a blaze on Helbig that injured a child and destroyed an apartment at the complex on Feb. 11, reports Beaumont Fire Rescue.
A burst water line at Mauriceville schools of Little Cypress-Mauriceville CISD was repaired but resulted in a boil water notice and left the campuses to seek other means of providing students with water until lab tests are complete.
The Lamar University Police Department is still searching for the suspect in the theft of a cell phone forcibly taken from a student on campus on Feb. 9.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event.

If the act of solving a problem was a map, many people would think it looks like this:
If you have a problem, then you just need to be smart and/or creative to solve it, right?
I think it looks more like this:
Solving a problem isn't just one thing. It certainly isn't a straight path. There are wrong turns, monsters, dead ends, and cliffs that lead to jagged rocks strewn with skeletons at the bottom.
I started these daily dev logs with the idea of documenting what I do every day. But that turned out to be, well, boring and impossible. I spend days/weeks/months navigating this path, so it's not very interesting to post an update that says "I spent the last 2 weeks googling and reading documentation, not sure if I'm any further than I was at the beginning". So these updates end up being much further apart than I'd like, but I guess that's the nature of the journey.
Another frustrating thing is this- see how close the solution looks like it is to the problem? After all of that travelling, it never seems like you got very far, especially to people who don't see the whole map. "It took you a month to do those things?" Well yeah but you should see all the other stuff I had to do just know that those things existed!
Specifically, I spent the last month or so implementing proper html stripping and parsing. This is pretty basic, and it's a little bit embarrassing that it took me this long to do it, but it's done! Most importantly: now that it's done, I know how to do it.
That's the one nice thing about the treacherous problem solving map. When you start out with a problem, there's often a locked door hiding a shortcut to the solution- in video games, it's the type of door that can only be opened from the other side, after you get further in the game. But once you get to the solution, you can unlock that door so next time you can avoid all of that extra travel.
I think this is a lot of what programming is. Travelling down the path, hitting all those dead-ends, slaying all those monsters- and eventually opening up the shortcut for next time.
After a while, the map starts to look like this:
Maybe this is why it bothers me so much when people say things like "I could never be a programmer, I'm just not smart enough!" or "I'm just not creative enough!" - because neither am I. I spend most of my time lost in the problem solving maze. Most of the time it looks like I'm not making any progress, and that can be really, really, really frustrating. The trick is to just keep hacking away at the monsters until there aren't any left.
In other news, I've also been working on the Static Void Games YouTube channel. This has been really fun and scary, and I'm hoping to turn this into a bit of an online classroom. Since last update, I made two more videos:
I'm still figuring out exactly what works and doesn't work. I'd love to hear feedback on the videos, especially from people who don't know anything about programming. Making these videos takes me through the same kind of problem solving map, so although it might not look like much, you should see all the stuff I had to do just to get here!
See you at the next Solution Castle.

"POREC - PARENZO" Top 5 Page for this destination Porec by croisbeauty
Porec Travel Guide: 333 reviews and 783 photos
Porec is a prestigious destination of Croatian tourism, located on the gentle western Istrian coast. It stands out with the strength of its natural and historical values, which irrestistibly attract torrents of pilgrims. Porec's riviera offers numerous sporting activities and pleasures; e.g. there are over 180 tennis courts there. The sea and the beaches meet high ecological standards, and Porec is the recipient of several Blue-flags, sign of international recognition of the quality of the seawater and the tidines of the beaches. Unfortunatelly when I have visited Porec it was a rainy day, 1st of October, therefore the town looks much more different and less beautiful. Since I am visiting it regularly, the next photo shoting I'll make on a bright and sunny day.
under construction
Euphrasian Basilica is the most valuable cultural monument in Porec, dating from 6th century.
Very pitoresque Decumanus street is the main street of the old core of the town. Here you'll find a lot of small shops, cafe-bars, shelter against the burning sun in the summer or strong wind in the winter time.

An automatic method of inspecting the scaling accuracy of needle-type instrument gauges using a two-stage Hough transform technique is described. The system measures and verifies the relative accuracy of a gauge's response to a specified set of analog input signals. The method does not require that the gauge's position, orientation, or size be known a priori and the algorithm is very suitable for high-speed hardware implementation.
