We'll be staying in Beverly Hills. Apart from Bazaar - a must try - sounds like fun no matter what we think of the food - anything new under the sun in Beverly Hills or nearby (5 or so miles) in terms of higher end dining? Our last dining experiences in Beverly Hills ranged from mediocre (Spago) to dismal (Reign - since closed). Bastide seems to open and close every other week. And a place like Sona seems to have garnered not so great reviews from local critics considering the hype it's gotten in the "foodie press". We are not big into steak (and if I want one - I can buy buy really good ones and grill them at home - so a place like Cut probably wouldn't be our cup of tea - except perhaps in terms of decor). So any and all suggestions would be appreciated. I'd rather have a great salami and eggs pancake style than a lousy high end dinner.
The Four Seasons - where we'll be staying - will have a new restaurant opening end of June. We'll try it at least once and report back. Robyn

Think of them as a company's ambassador. A human resources assistant may be the first person a potential employee meets when he contacts a business in person or by telephone. A warm, outgoing assistant can make a great impression on job seekers and be a comfort to current employees seeking help with benefits questions. If you have strong clerical skills and enjoy customer service, you could have a future as a human resource assistant.
Prehiring tasks
A human resource, or HR, assistant places job advertisements and take phone calls from potential applicants with questions about a position. The assistant may call references listed by a job applicant to verify the potential employee's work habits and personality. She may also administer any screening tests the company uses to evaluate job applicants.
After the company extends a job offer to an applicant, the assistant may mail out a welcome packet, benefits information and instructions for his first day on the job.
Bringing Employees on Board
When a new employee reports for work, the HR assistant completes several tasks to help her get started in her new position. The assistant may work with the employee to complete her I-9 forms (government forms that verify her identity and eligibility to work in the United States) and provide an orientation to the company, including its benefits and policies. The assistant may also help the employee complete her insurance enrollment paperwork, emergency contact information form and other documents.
Helping Existing Employees
When an employee has a question or problem, the HR assistant may be expected to help. For example, if an employee gets married or divorced, gives birth to or adopts a baby, or experiences other major life changes, the assistant may help her evaluate how these situations affect her insurance coverage. If an employee expresses a need to take an extended medical leave, the assistant can discuss the employee's options with him.
If a worker has an address change, the assistant updates the company's records with the new contact information.
Clerical Duties and Recordkeeping
Filing, sending faxes, making photocopies and filtering the department's incoming mail are some of the administrative duties that the HR assistant may complete.
The assistant may schedule meetings or interviews for her manager and prepare letters and other documents for her boss.
As employees are hired or fired, the assistant updates the company's database. Assistants may also track employees' use of vacation time and sick leave, as well as changes in compensation. The assistant may be expected to use the database to output various reports.
Education and experience
Employers expect a human resource assistant to have strong computer skills and the ability to communicate well orally and verbally. Experience with Microsoft Office software is a common job requirement. Employers may require a bachelor's degree in human resource, experience in the field or a combination of the two.
Personal Traits
A human resource manager expects her assistant to be organized and detail-oriented. The manager looks for someone who can meet deadlines regularly and keep tabs on several assignments at the same time. Because the human resource department deals with a lot of private information, managers want an assistant who fully adheres to the company's confidentiality policies.

Each year, travelers from all over the world visit the beautiful Caribbean island of Cuba. With a little planning, you can travel to Cuba with ease.
Visa Requirements
Most nationalities do not require a visa to enter Cuba. You do, however, need a tourist card to enter Cuba. Tourist cards are valid for a minimum of 30 days. Tour operators and most airlines will provide you with your tourist card, sometimes at an extra cost. You can also apply for a tourist card through the Cuban consulate. Check your local consulate for requirements. At minimum, you will have to show a return or onward ticket and hotel reservations.
U.S. citizens cannot obtain tourist cards in the United States or at any American consulate abroad. In order to visit Cuba as a tourist, U.S. citizens must leave the United States and obtain their tourist card in another country before traveling to Cuba. The tourist card should be issued by the airline you take to fly to Cuba.
Package Tours
There are numerous international tour operators who offer package tours to Cuba. Some include flights, while others are for hotel and local transport only. Most of the tour operators will arrange for your tourist card for entry into Cuba. Some popular tour package providers include Cuba-based Cubalinda, Floridita and Thomas Cook in the United Kingdom, and Signature Travel and Tripcentral in Canada.
By Air
There are direct flights to Cuba from the United States. However, to take one of these flights you must be a Cuban American traveling to Cuba to visit family, or have an official license to travel to Cuba. People who might qualify to receive an official license to visit Cuba include researchers, journalists, members of a religious organization and government officials. To view a complete list of categories for official Cuba licenses, refer to the U.S. State Department's Cuba page.
If you're a US citizen traveling to Cuba as a tourist, you must fly to Cuba via another country. Some popular routes to Cuba are via Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, and the Bahamas, on commercial or charter airlines. You should be able to pick up your tourist card for entry into Cuba from the airline counter outside the United States.
If you are based in Europe, popular departure points to Cuba include London and Madrid. Check with your airline to see if they will obtain your tourist card or if you have to apply for one in advance through your local Cuban consulate.
By Sea
There are a small number of cruises that visit Cuba. Most of these cruises originate in the United Kingdom, Canada and Barbados.

Are you a global reader? How many countries have you "visited" in your reading? What are your favorite places or cultures to read about? Can you recommend particularly good books about certain regions, countries or continents? How do you find out about books from other countries? What countries would you like to read that you haven't yet?
This week's Weekly Geeks question was posed by Terri:
– via books, of course, whether written about a country or by a native or resident of the country!
Although many authors write about their native countries, I don't always know that bit of biography when I choose a book to read, so I considered where a book takes place rather than where its writer came from in answering this question. I'm not surprised to see this, but I am mildly embarrassed to report it – I'm not particularly well-traveled. I checked off only 48 countries on the list used to produce this map:
Some of my favorite places to visit in books aren't reflected on the map, though, because they're not quite real. Harry Potter's United Kingdom isn't the everyday version, for example. I tend to prefer fantasy that takes place somewhere that's not completely unfamiliar.
As for the real world, it's really not that I'm not interested in other countries and cultures! However, I tend to be drawn to stories that I think I'll be able to relate to, and it seems that many of those stories are by English-speaking authors and take place in the US, Canada, or western Europe. I feel like such a politically-incorrect elitist now that I'm confronted with the evidence, but at this point in my reading life, it looks like I'm a mostly- (not quite all-)American girl. And in my real-life travels, it's much the same; I've been to quite a few of the fifty states, but my only trips outside my home country have been to Canada and the eastern Caribbean (including the U.S. Virgin Islands, which I'm not sure about counting separately).
Having said that, though, I enjoy reading travel memoirs set almost anywhere – again, as long as the story grabs me. As for fiction, I have long been intrigued by novels set in pre-Communist China and modern Europe – but don't forget, there's certainly enough variety of regions and cultures in the good ol' U.S. of A. to keep a reader exploring on the home front for years.
Where in the world have you been – and where would you like to go?

Hasbro Vs. Mattel = Transformers 3 Vs. Toy Story 3
Goldman initiated coverage of toy maker Hasbro with a "conviction buy" rating, saying the stock could go to $56 a share, from around $40, where it currently trades. Goldman's call on the toymaker follows UBS's Monday boost of its price target for Hasbro, which helped drive the shares up 4.6%.
At that price Hasbro is trading at around 11 times Goldman's estimate for 2011 earnings of $3.60 a share, which is above consensus. Why is Goldman more optimistic than the street? Goldman's Michael Kelter writes:
(1) The third Transformers movie should drive strong operating results.
(2) Sales from the recently won Sesame Street toy license commence.
(3) The TV joint venture with Discovery Kids will likely turn accretive.
(4) A leveraged buyback would meaningfully reduce share count.
Hasbro has handily outperformed the broader market so far in 2010. Before Tuesday's open the toymaker was up nearly 24% versus about 7% for the S&P 500. Rival Mattel is also doing better than the market as a whole, up about 18% so far this year. While it also views Mattel as "attractively valued" Goldman put a "neutral" call on Mattel, citing "stretched sales expectations and the potential for commodity inflation to negatively impact profitability."
UBS sees it the other way around, preferring …

(i) If imported goods are sold to a buyer in India by transfer of documents of title of goods, before the goods have crossed the customs frontier of India, it will be treated as Sale or purchase in the course of import.
(ii) Where transfer of documents of title effects sale, such transfer should take place before the goods are moved out or customs station.
(iii) If the above mentioned conditions are satisfied in any sale transaction, then there will be no CST or VAT.
Sec. 5(2) of the CST Act prescribes two conditions for a sale or purchase of goods to be deemed to have taken place in the course of import of the goods into the territory of India if the sale or purchase either occasions such import or is effected by transfer of documents to the title of goods.
Thus there are two limbs to the said section. For a transaction to fall under the first limb it is essential that there must be an inextricable link or a back to back transaction in the sale or purchase occasioning such import. And as per second limb of the sec 5(2) the sale can be effected by transfer of documents to the title of goods on arrival of the subject- matter of the transaction. Endorsement of negotiable instrument is necessary before the goods cross the custom frontier of India.

Bendigo: Kristi Harrower made an emotional farewell to basketball on Sunday.
The 39-year-old, who is 16 weeks pregnant, played her final game for her beloved Bendigo Spirit in their 75-64 win over the Adelaide Lightning in front of a packed crowd at Bendigo Stadium.
Harrower wiped away tears when she was introduced to a raucous crowd pre-match and again during the national anthem.
Harrower sat on the bench until the dying minutes, but with 2 minutes 18 seconds to play and the Spirit leading 73-60, she made her entrance to the court to a standing ovation from Spirit fans.
To the Adelaide Lightning's credit they deliberately fouled Harrower to send her to the free throw line.
Renowned for being one of the best free throw shooters of her generation, Harrower nervously missed the first attempt.
The second attempt found nothing but the bottom of the net and the Spirit crowd roared their approval.
With 33 seconds to play, Spirit coach Bernie Harrower substituted his daughter out of the game.
With the crowd on their feet again, Bernie and Kristi embraced and shed more tears.
After the final buzzer, Kristi's long-time Spirit teammates Gabe Richards and Chelsea Aubry lifted her on their shoulders and Kristi clapped and waved to her Bendigo fans.
"I'm going to miss playing with these girls and this [retiring] is something I've been dreading for the past two years," Harrower said after signing autographs for Spirit fans.
"It's been a special week. I can't thank people enough for the support this week.
"I always said that I wanted a pregnancy to help me make my decision because I couldn't make it myself.
"This is a great way to go out, it's special, now I've got some pretty important things to look forward to."
Harrower said it was tough to keep her emotions in check when she was substituted into the game.
"I've never been that nervous shooting a free throw before," Harrower said.
"I haven't been training, so I'm a bit out of touch … it would have been embarrassing if I had have missed both.
"It was nice to make a free throw and get a point in my final game.
"That ovation when I walked off the court was special. The support Bendigo people have given me over the years has been amazing."
Bernie Harrower said the emotions of the week had taken its toll on him.
"I'm glad this week is over, but I'm not glad Kristi's career is over," Bernie said.
"I always knew it was going to be a tough time when she retired … it's been an emotional week.
"Her amazing career is over. For someone of her stature to have the career she has has been outstanding.
"The exciting thing is she now gets to go into another phase of her life and become a mum."
Adelaide Lightning coach Jeremi Moule, who spent four years as chairman of the Spirit before heading across the border, said Kristi Harrower's influence on the club was unrivalled.
"From what she's achieved as a player speaks for itself," Moule said.
"The point I would like to make is that every team she's ever played on, including the Spirit, she's made the team better.
"She does whatever it takes to make the team better.
"That might mean making the big shots if that's what she's required to do, or playing defence on Jenna O'Hea because no one else can.
"She makes the game for her teammates so much easier.
"There could be no better high-profile player for the Spirit to get on board.
"For the profile and the importance of having a player from Bendigo be that type of leader is really what's helped get the club to where it is today."
Moule's Lightning were blown away by the Spirit early in Sunday's game.
Led by Belinda Snell and Kelsey Griffin, the Spirit led by 11 at quarter-time and had the game all but sewn up at half-time when they led by 17.
The Lightning produced a much better offensive performance in the second half but the damage had been done.
Snell was all class, scoring 17 points, including four three-point bombs.
Gabe Richards added 15 points, while Griffin dominated at both ends of the court.
The US import had 14 points, nine rebounds, three blocks, two steals and one assist.
Laura Hodges, a long-time Opals teammate of Kristi Harrower, was superb for Adelaide, scoring 20 points on 9-13 shooting.
Bendigo's win coupled with Townsville's loss to Dandenong opens the door for the Spirit to challenge for top spot.
The second-placed Spirit (11-4) plays the in-form Rangers (9-7) at Dandenong next weekend.

Trend Spotting: Celebs Brighten Up Red Carpet With Neon! (PHOTOS)
Last year, bright colors were popping up all over the runway in many designers' Spring/Summer and Resort collections. Now that the trend has finally caught on, it has progressed to be one of the most prominent of the upcoming year.
Every big-name designer from Chanel to Valentino to Prada has included neon pieces in their recent collections. And this past September, there were even some collections that featured a majority of neon looks like Nanette Lepore and Christian Siriano.
Of course, fashion divas like Nicki Minaj have always rocked neons, but recently, other stars like Kristin Cavallari, Blake Lively, Kourtney Kardashian, and Gwyneth Paltrow have been spotted in short, bright dresses at VIP events.
Screen sirens Natalie Portman and Kirsten Dunst were seen wearing neon blue to different award shows and celebs Julianne Moore, Jennifer Lawrence, Diane Kruger, and Brooklyn Decker have all popped in long pink gowns on the red carpet. Even if red carpeting doesn't exactly coordinate with neon pink, that didn't stop these stars from successfully trying the trend.
The neon trend not only applies to fashion, but to beauty as well. Try a hot pink or coral lip like Emma Stone, Emily Blunt, and Kelly Osbourne to instantly kick your look up to the next level. To really make a statement, go for neon hair like Katy Perry and Lady Gaga do so "naturally".
Even as the weather is starting to change, neons will continue to be popular throughout the winter for those who are not afraid to stand out in a crowd. Are you brave enough for this trend? Is it too crazy for you? Play fashion critic in the comments!

A Bug's Life
Thorny is a short, grumpy ant who is a member of the Council of Ants. He usually carries an abacus to calculate the number of seeds that have been harvested so far. He often stands watch to see if Hopper and his gang are coming. Thorny greatly dislikes Flik because of his clumsiness and bothersome inventions. However, by the end of the movie, Thorny comes around to Flik and realizes he has misjudged him. He even uses Flik's grass seed harvester, as do the rest of the colony.

Dorwest Herbs Kelp Seaweed Tablets is a herbal medicine to encourage coat growth and pigmentation, as an aid in the treatment of obesity and to relieve rheumatic pain in cats and dogs.
Kelp Seaweed can be used as an aid in the treatment of obesity as it contains Fucus Vesiculosus (a brown seaweed), which contains fucoxanthin, a pigment that has an influence on the glucose metabolism.
Fucus vesiculosis is the species of Kelp in our tablets as it has the highest content of minerals and trace elements and is therefore an essential addition to the diet to ensure all minerals are being provided.
The tablets are sugar coated for easy administration and can be given directly into the mouth or added to the daily feed.
Can be given from 8 weeks of age.
Dosage: 1 tablet per 5kg bodyweight daily
Caution:Cats and dogs that are prone to skin problems associated with overheating should be given Kelp sparingly during hot weather. Also due to its high iodine content it is not recommended for animals below 5kgs in bodyweight or those with a thyroid condition, except on veterinary advice.

A heavy rainstorm in Toronto caused power outages and transit chaos across Canada's largest city on Monday, with flooding shutting down parts of its subway and major roads, according to news reports.
"Toronto Hydro, the main electrical utility, said some 300,000 customers lost power after the sudden storm, which dumped more than 90 millimeters (3.5 inches) of water on parts of the city.
The rain also flooded subway stations, closing down large parts of three subway lines, the city's public transit operator said. Many streetcars and buses in the downtown area were forced to stop or divert."
People are posting photos on social media of the flooding which pretty much explain the situation in Toronto right now. Have a look:

By Kirkland Crawford, Detroit Free Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio The Red Wings fell to the Blue Jackets, 3-2, in a shootout Friday night in Columbus, Ohio, but lost their starting goaltender and crease-clogger in the process.
Goalie Jimmy Howard left the game in the first period with a bruised knee and did not return. Howard was injured while covering the right post on a Derick Brassard shot. Joey MacDonald, who's on the team because of Chris Osgood's sports hernia surgery, came on in relief of Howard.
In the third period, forward Tomas Holmstrom suffered a broken hand and will be out for at least a month.
GAME REPORT: Blue Jackets 3, Red Wings 2 (SO)
The Wings came into the game without standouts Pavel Datsyuk, Mike Modano, Dan Cleary, Brad Stuart and Osgood.
"That's just the way it goes sometimes," coach Mike Babcock said. "You get injuries and you just have to fight through them. (Holmstrom will) see the hand specialist tomorrow. It's at least four weeks, for sure."
A team spokesman said Howard had X-rays at Nationwide Arena and they came back negative. These two teams play again Saturday at Joe Louis Arena.
"He's not available so he won't be able to go tomorrow," said Babcock, who indicated the team might need to call up a goalie from the minors as an emergency backup.
MacDonald had 21 saves in regulation and overtime and stopped the first three shots he saw in the shootout. Howard stopped nine shots. Steve Mason made 26 saves for Columbus.
In the fourth round of the shootout, the Blue Jackets' Antoine Vermette slipped the puck under MacDonald's leg and into the net. Johan Franzen's attempt against Steve Mason came up empty, ending the game.
"(Vermette) just came down slow, kind of went across the ice and when they're coming slow like that you've got to stay out (on) them," MacDonald said. "He just pulled it over and stuck it through."
He added, "Hey, when it gets to a shootout, you never know who's going to win it."
The Blue Jackets went first in the shootout, and Rick Nash (lost puck on deke), Kyle Wilson (hit left post) and Kristian Huselius all came up empty. However, Jiri Hudler's snap shot missed, Todd Bertuzzi's backhander missed the net and Henrik Zetterberg's wrist shot sailed high.
Columbus jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period against Howard on goals by Jakub Voracek (4:05) and Grant Clitsome (11:51, power play). But the Wings answered with two in the second period. Drew Miller scored on a wrist shot during a penalty kill on an assist from Justin Abdelkader at 5:14. Hudler tied the game with a goal off a rebounded shot by Valtteri Filppula at 8:05.
The Jackets began the season 14-6 before they were swept in a home-and-home series against the Wings in November. They have gone 6-14-3 in their last 23 games.

Fed Delay Presenting Opportunity for Emerging Markets?
There is suddenly a very intense conversation that is taking place within the ranks of the emerging markets. The Fed decision to delay the tapering process has been seen as something of a reprieve and now the question is what these nations can do with this break. The crux of the situation is relatively simply stated—the loose monetary policy of the U.S. was created by historically low interest rates and a series of extraordinary moves designed to bolster the economy by holding long-term rates as low as possible. This same tactic has been employed in Europe and in its most drastic form in Japan. The investor reacted to all this predictably. There was no real opportunity to make much of a return in the U.S. or European market so money took off for greener pastures and those were to be found in the emerging markets. To make matters that much more complex, there are restrictions on investment in some of these states, most notably China. The "hot money" in search of decent returns was essentially channeled into states such as Brazil, India, Turkey and others that soon became the darlings of the investment community. For the most part this influx of cash was welcome and it contributed to the rapid growth these nations were experiencing. Remember a few years ago when the BRICs were all the rage? At the time there was concern about the impact all this cash was having on inflation and the reaction of the central banks actually made things a little worse. The response to inflation was to raise interest rates and that just made these economies all the more appealing.
Then the Fed started to talk about reducing all this economic assistance and the investor's mood changed quickly. Now there is the promise of higher rates, and in markets that were considered more secure and reliable. The flood of cash out of the emerging markets threatened to be even more drastic than the flood in. That was until the Fed seemed to reverse course. The investors are now stuck in a kind of self-imposed limbo as they try to figure out the next move. For the time being the emerging markets are not seeing the exodus that was starting to occur. The question is what they should do now. The money that was finding its way into these economies has remained for the time being, but nobody expects this to last. The Fed will eventually taper and the hot money will flee in search of better rates and more security in the U.S. and Europe. This is going to happen, although it is not altogether clear when. How do the emerging market states prepare now that they have been given a short breather?
Analysis: There are not all that many options and they will be hard to put into effect in the short time that may be available. It comes down to two broad strategies. The first is to figure out a way to keep attracting that foreign investment despite the higher rates that may be developing in the U.S. and Europe. The second is to more dramatically expand the growth of the domestic economy—both in terms of consumer activity and domestic investment. The discussions right now revolve around what the foreign investor wants to see in these nations. It starts with a decent return and that has many central banks considering further rate increases as this makes putting money in these countries more appealing. The problem with that strategy is that higher interest rates will slow the development of domestic growth, as loans will be more expensive. If the plan is to bolster the growth of the private sector, it would make more sense to lower the interest rates, but that chases away the investor seeking higher returns. The country then has to make a choice. The fastest way to fend off decline is to concentrate on attracting the attention of the investor, but that just extends the vulnerability to that outside funding.

the active production of useful plants or animals in ecosystems that have been created by people. Agriculture has often been conceptualized narrowly, in terms of specific combinations of activities and organisms—wet-rice production in Asia, wheat farming in Europe, cattle ranching in the Americas, and the like—but a more holistic perspective holds that humans are environmental engineers who disrupt terrestrial habitats in specific ways. Anthropogenic disruptions such as clearing vegetation or tilling the soil cause a variety of localized changes; common effects include an increase in the amount of light reaching ground level and a reduction in the competition among organisms. As a result, an area may produce more of the plants or animals that people desire for food, technology, medicine, and other uses. Over time, some plants and animals have become domesticated, or dependent on these and other human interventions for their long-term propagation or survival. Domestication is a...

Staff recognized for outstanding service and excellence
July 2nd, 2015 | SMWC
On Staff Appreciation Day, Wednesday, April 22, 2015, the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC) community recognized the work of the staff and their accomplishments throughout the past year. President Dottie King, Ph.D., presented two staff members with awards at the ceremony:
Outstanding Staff Award
The Outstanding Staff Award is presented twice each year, to recognize a full- or part-time staff employee for going above and beyond normal responsibilities and dedication to their profession. The recipient of the Spring 2015 Outstanding Staff Award received a $50 check, two personal days, a parking spot of their choice for six months, a $50 gift card and a framed certificate.
Maggie Freeman, administrative assistant for graduate studies, was presented the Spring 2015 Outstanding Staff Award for her consistently good attitude and commitment to The Woods. She is respected as a problem-solver and a doer who is self-motivated and pro-active. Freeman is known for taking extra time and care to investigate a situation and provide solutions and assistance. With her prompt and professional communications with the applicants and eventual students of the College, Freeman is a valuable contributor to the team effort that has resulted in increased graduate enrollment.
Freeman is managing her workload while pursuing her undergraduate degree. She also volunteers for many events, including Lemonade Day, requiring evening and weekend work. She has actively participated as a team mom for the Vigo County Youth Football Association and is now providing oversight and strategic direction for the organization as a whole, as a board member. She participates in many campus activities and attends student-centered events such as art shows, Ring Day and Commencement. Freeman adds considerable value to SMWC.
Carolyn J. Mock Staff Excellence Award
Named after former staff member who served the College from 1986 until her death from cancer in 1998, the Carolyn J. Mock Staff Excellence is presented annually, to a full- or part-time staff member in recognition for going above and beyond normal responsibilities, dedication to their profession and participation in college and community organizations. The recipient of the Carolyn J. Mock Award received a $50 check, five personal days, a parking spot of their choice for a year and an engraved plaque.
LuAnn Malone, assistant registrar for academic records, was presented the 2015 Carolyn J. Mock Staff Excellence Award for her excellent customer service and her respect and enthusiasm for her work. Whether it is a student, staff or faculty member needing assistance, she always finds an answer or solves the problem with care, joy, professionalism and expertise. Malone has served on various staff committees and is a current member of Staff Assembly.
After the campus went through the installation of a new student information system(SIS), one of her nominators wrote, "Obviously the registrar's office, as well as other areas, have had to deal with massive changes lately. Luann, with all of her help, support and ideas, has helped us all weather these changes. She has truly helped us face these challenges. She deals with the constant changes and updates to our programs and course schedules. She often stays after 5 p.m. to respond to phone calls, and has emailed about courses as late as 7:00 and 7:30 p.m. Her diligence and professionalism and her support of faculty and students are the best."
After the awards were presented, staff members who received other awards, promotions, or educational advances were recognized. Those in attendance were then given time to give appreciation "shout-outs" to staff members who impact SMWC and their daily work.

by Brandon Turbeville, Activist Post:
The American airstrikes on Syrian forces in Deir al-Zour on Saturday have produced a chain reaction throughout the diplomatic world, with Russia calling an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council regarding the attacks and causing a war of words between Russian and American ambassadors.
After Russia responded to the U.S. bombing by calling for an urgent meeting of the UNSC, the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. and notorious humanitarian bomber Samantha Power ranted and raved about the "embarrassment" that Russia was bringing on itself by daring to question the U.S. prerogative to bomb any and everywhere it wants.
"Why are we having this meeting tonight? It is a diversion from what is happening on the ground. If you don't like what is happening on the ground then you distract. It is a magician's trick… we encourage the Russian Federation to have emergency meetings with the Assad regime and deliver them to this deal," Power said.
"What Russia is alleging tonight is that somehow the United States is undermining the fighting against ISIL. The Russian spokesperson even said that the United States might be complicit in this attack… This is not a game," she exclaimed.
"The Syrian regime that bills itself as the fighter against ISIL let the group grow and grow. ISIL took root and prospered right next to the Assad regime," Power said. "The best way to fight ISIL and al-Nusra Front is to stop bombing civilians and deliver the Assad regime. Assad's tactics have been a gift to terrorists. There is a better way forward, but Russia really needs to stop the cheap point scoring and grandstanding and focus on what matters. The implementation of something that we have negotiated in good faith with them."
"We regret the loss of life, but since 2011 Assad's regime have been striking Syrian civilians relentlessly," she added.
"Even by Russia's standards, tonight's stunt, a stunt replete with moralism and grandstanding is uniquely cynical and hypocritical," Power ranted. "And that spokesperson who suggested complicity [with ISIS on the part of the U.S.] really should be embarrassed."
To anyone even somewhat familiar with the situation on the ground in Syria and to most of the world, Samantha Power came across looking like the absolute monster that she is. Only within the borders of the United States and Western Europe would Power have any credibility whatsoever. To the rest of the world, however, her aggressive speech was nothing more than the rantings of either a liar or an individual suffering under a great delusion who was unfortunately allowed in front of a microphone at a world event. Power's feeble attempts at mimicking the speech and mannerisms of Barack Obama were stunted by reality and by the fact that well over 90% of her speech could be disproven within seconds of typing on a keyboard.
But while Power threw her fit and humiliated herself and the United States even further, she did at least succeed in disrupting the meeting itself. Russian Ambassador to the U.N. Vitaly Churkin stormed out of the meeting claiming he had "never seen such American heavy-handedness."
Churkin did add that Russia still had many questions about the American attacks and that he viewed the timing of the attacks as very suspicious.
"That spokesman" Maria Zakharova, shot back on social media after Power's ridiculous statement. She wrote,
Dear Samantha Power, in order to know the meaning of the word "embarrassed," I highly encourage you to travel to Syria and talk to the people there for yourself. And by that I do not mean the Al-Nusra Front militants, nor the moderate opposition, whose humanitarian situation Washington seems to be so worried about. I likewise am not referring to the Western warriors for justice for Syria. I'm referring to the actual people that continue to live there in spite of the bloody experiment that has been waged on their homeland for over six years, with active participation by Washington.
Do say yes. Don't be frightened. Nobody will lay a finger on you in my presence. Unless, of course, your guys don't again 'mistakenly' strike the wrong target. You'll make lots of new memories. And find out what 'embarrassed' means in the process.

Man jailed over fatal Halls Head stabbing
A 28-year-old man has been sentenced to six years jail for fatally stabbing a teenage boy during an altercation in Halls Head, south of Perth.
Scott Daniel Sievers was found guilty of unlawfully killing 17-year-old Rowan Davis in January last year.
Sievers had armed himself with two knives after a group of youths had thrown a rock at his mother's car and abused her.
During a confrontation with the teenager, Sievers stabbed Mr Davis in the heart and he died at the scene.
Supreme Court Commissioner, Kevin Sleight, said, while the behaviour of the youths was aggressive and unacceptable, Sievers' response was unreasonable.
He sentenced Sievers to six years jail and made him eligible for parole.
With time already served, he could be released in under three years.
Rowan Davis's cousin, Phil Walley Stack, says the family believes the sentence is not long enough.
"We wasn't asking for the world, not asking for the death penalty, we wasn't asking for 50 years, we wasn't asking for 20 years," Mr Stack said.
"We were just asking for something reasonable, just something for a bit of closure."
"A lot of people always say when someone passes away they was an angel, they was this, they was that, they were special," Mr Stack said.
"But this is one boy you could truly say that about, you know. He was special. He still is an angel."
Mr Davis was a talented footballer and cousin of former Collingwood player, Leon Davis.

The Beatitudes Explained
The beatitudes can very often go unnoticed but they are very important for those who have made the decision to follow Christ. They should guide us, point us in the right direction, teach us, and show us the values that Jesus cares about. As we read them we should be looking at whether or not we are trying to follow them.

|New Byzantium Publications - Books
|We are in the process of compiling the texts and hymns of our website into PDF books. Click on the thumbnails below to view each PDF book, or right-click on each thumbnail to download the book to your computer. For a hard copy of the books, put the PDF files on a USB flash drive or an SD card and take them to your local Kinko's, Office Max, or other copy center, and they will make the books. Make sure you ask for 2-sided images. We suggest you use a spiral binding with a clear plastic cover. We will add more books periodically.
|The five books below contain essentially all of the hymns a Greek Orthodox church choir or chanters will have to chant for the Divine Liturgy every Sunday of the year and every major feast of the Church. They are all in side-by-side Greek and English, and all in the official musical system of the Church. Traditional modes and melodies are always used, and the English is always flowing, metered, easy to understand, and conveys the poetry of the ancient Greek texts.
|The Fifth Edition of the Divine Liturgy book, contains a complete major (Plagal Fourth) and minor (Plagal First) liturgy including four different Cherubic hymns, substiitutions for the Trisagion hymn, and hymns for hierarchical liturgies. It includes the Memorial and Artoklasia services. With extensive annotations and instructions. (126 pages)
|Volumes 1 and 2 of the Menaion have all of the hymns needed for the liturgy for every day of the year when it falls on a Sunday, and for the major feasts of the Church. These include antiphons and antiphon verses, entrance hymns, apolytikia, church hymns, small entrance hymns, kontakia, megalynaria, and Communion hymns. Both volumes contain a Typikon table with every date of the year and its order of hymns. (Vol. 1 - 216 pages and Vol. 2 - 226 pages)
|Like the Menaion volumes, the Triodion and Pentecostarion contain all of the hymns needed for Sunday Divine Liturgies during the period of the moveable feasts--Pre-Lent, Lent, Lazarus Saturday, Palm Sunday, Pascha, the Paschal Sundays, Ascension, Pentecost, and All Saints Sunday. There is also a Typikon table in this book as well. (108 pages.)
|This selection of hymns includes most of the well-known hymns a Greek Orthodox Church choir might chant during Holy Week, including the apolytikia and exapostelarion of the Bridegroom services, the Troparion of Kassiani, the 15th Antiphon of Great Friday Orthros (Simeron Kremate), the Canon of Holy Saturday Orthros, the Lamentations, the Saturday Divine Liturgy, and the Katavasias of Pascha. (68 pages).

Hey there, time traveller!

Nixon's poor image deserved
Re: Nixon legacy not all bad (Letters, Aug. 12). In attempting to improve the image of ex-president Richard Nixon, letter-writer Larry Wiebe forgot to mention the terror campaign Nixon, with his political adviser Henry Kissinger, imposed in order to destroy the government of the democratically elected president of Chile, Salvador Allende, in 1973.
The result included many thousands dead or disappeared and half a million in exile after the brutal dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet took over. More than 15,000 Chileans came to Canada as political refugees.
How can all of this be overlooked in an effort to rescue a tarnished reputation?

Leave Portage and Main alone
Brian Bowman should leave Portage and Main alone (A vow to open marquee corner, Aug. 12).
Traffic is bad enough in this city already, what with the un-timed traffic lights.
Nobody in Winnipeg or anywhere else wants to walk across Canada's windiest intersection in the dead of winter, day or night.
Bowman is bright -- he should find some relevant issue to campaign on. There are plenty to choose from.
Chuck Lange
With his commitment to reopening Portage and Main to pedestrians, Brian Bowman has shot himself in the foot.
What fool would stand outside shivering from the cold waiting for the traffic signal to change so they can cross the street when they have the option of going a few steps further into a warm, heated underground crossing?
Whoever advised him to make hay on this should be made to stand at that intersection in January.

Divide on downtown dangers
Re: My wife is not racist: Steeves (Aug. 13). There is a huge problem with Gord Steeves' response.
He says his wife was afraid in 2010 when she wrote "(I am) tired of getting harrassed (sic) by the drunken native guys... " and "they can go make their own damn money instead of hanging out and harrassing (sic) the honest people..."
The Facebook post doesn't express even a hint of fear, just anger and frustration. Where's the fear?
David Letkemann
I'm so sick of hearing about the comments made by Lorrie Steeves four years ago regarding the panhandlers and drunks in downtown Winnipeg.
Anyone who has worked downtown and tried to go for a walk during a lunch break understands her comments and the frustration of being approached every day by panhandlers and drunks.
I worked downtown for many years and was approached almost daily -- you bet it was frustrating. Since retiring, I don't go downtown to shop or visit local attractions. It is simply not safe and hasn't been for years.
This should not make or break Gord Steeves' run for mayor. Winnipeggers have a lot more to be worried about.
My answer is to not go downtown until the problem is solved.
Ruth Brown
I live downtown and have never had any problems with panhandlers. If you mind your business and politely say no to them, they will leave you alone.
We must all learn to live together.

Clarifying cottage rent
Bill Redekop's article Clear Lake cottage country with a twist (Aug. 11) disputes information provided by Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship about the amount lakefront cottagers pay at Clear Lake in Riding Mountain National Park, claiming no cottager pays $4,500 in rent.
All the information regarding Clear Lake cottage properties, including the example of the $300,000 assessed cottage that paid $4,500 per year in rent, was based solely on written information provided by a federal government official.

CFL penalties painful
Re: Big Blue beatdown in T.O. (Aug. 13). The average number of penalties per game in the CFL is alarming. In fact, the total is starting to encroach on the average number of fouls in NBA basketball games -- approximately 40.
Each penalty in football has a greater impact on the eventual outcome of the game than an individual foul in basketball.
It's time for CFL officials to use more and better judgment before deciding whether or not to throw their flags.
