If you arrive in North Korea without both a valid passport and a valid DPRK visa, you may be denied entry, fined, detained, arrested or imprisoned.
If you arrive in North Korea without multiple Chinese visas or if your Chinese visas expire before you depart North Korea, you may not be able to exit North Korea.
The U.S. Department of State is unaware of any HIV/AIDS entry restrtictions for visitors to or foreign residents of North Korea.
During your Stay:
Even with proper documentation, you are on your own when you enter North Korea. You could be arrested and imprisoned for actions that would not be cause for arrest in the United States or other countries.
Safety and Security
Please see the sections on "Local Laws and Special Circumstances" and "Criminal Penalties."
Crime: North Korea does not release crime statistics. Petty thefts have been reported at the airport in Pyongyang.
Do not buy counterfeit and/or pirated goods, even if they are widely available. The purchase of counterfeit and pirated goods is illegal in the United States and may be illegal in North Korea.
See the Department of State and the FBI pages for information on scams.
Victims of Crime:If you or someone you know becomes the victim of a crime while in North Korea, you should report the crime to your local host/liaison and contact the Embassy of Sweden for assistance. Your local host/liaison should contact the local authorities on your behalf.
Lost or Stolen Passports: If your passport is lost or stolen in North Korea, you must apply for a new passport at a U.S. Embassy or consulate in China. Contact the Embassy of Sweden for assistance. You will also need a new visa for China.
Please see our information for victims of crime, including possible victim compensation programs in the United States.

Local Laws & Special Circumstances
While in North Korea, you are subject to North Korea law. If you violate North Korea laws, even unwittingly, you may be held without charges, or arrested, tried, convicted, sentenced, and imprisoned for unspecified periods of time.
Arrest Notification: If you are arrested or detained, ask police or prison officials to notify the Embassy of Sweden immediately. See our webpage for further information
Some laws are also prosecutable in the United States, regardless of local law. For examples, see our website on crimes against minors abroad and the Department of Justice website.
North Korea Legal System: The North Korea legal system is an instrument of state power and not an independent branch of the government. Protections guaranteed under the U.S. legal system do not apply, and your U.S. passport does not confer special status.
Bills: The DPRK says U.S. citizens are accountable for costs associated with detention or incarceration in North Korea such as lodging, food, telephone calls, and medical assistance (hospital bills).
Educate yourself about North Korean law. Your local host/liaison may be able to provide useful guidance. However, do not assume your host or tour operator will provide assistance to you if you are arrested, or that any information you shared with them will not be turned over to North Korean authorities.
- It is considered a criminal act or even espionage in North Korea to show disrespect for the country's current and former leaders Kim Jong Un, Kim Jong Il, and Kim Il Sung or to possess information, electronic or otherwise, critical of the regime. A near religious cult surrounds treatment of these individuals and acts that would be deemed unexceptional elsewhere in the world, i.e. placing a newspaper bearing the leader's image in the garbage or taking down a banner bearing the leader's name in Korean, are criminal in North Korea.
- It is also considered a criminal act and possibly espionage to proselytize.
It is illegal in North Korea to:
- Take unauthorized photographs: North Korean government authorities may view taking unauthorized pictures as espionage, confiscate cameras and memory cards, demand that specific pictures be deleted, and/or detain the photographer.
- Interact with the local population
- Take unauthorized trips
- Exchange currency with an unauthorized vendor
- Shop at stores not designated for foreigners
- Engage in unsanctioned political activities
Customs Regulations: North Korean authorities may put you in jail or seize documents, literature, audio and video files, computer equipment, DVDs, USB drives and other digital media, and letters that could be used in proselytizing.
Electronic Communication: North Korea tightly restricts the circumstances under which foreigners may enter the country and interact with local citizens.
Information Critical of North Korea: North Korean government security personnel closely monitor the activities and conversations of foreigners in North Korea. Never bring or handle any material, printed or digital (including popular literature on e-book readers), that could be interpreted as critical of, or hostile to, the country or its leadership. Hotel rooms, telephones, and fax machines may be monitored.
Personal possessions in hotel rooms may be searched.
Pornography: Engaging in sexual conduct with minors or using or disseminating child pornography in a foreign country is a crime, prosecutable in the United States and may be prosecutable in North Korea. Please see additional information on Criminal Penalties.
Press: North Korea has granted press visas for cultural or sporting events or visits of foreign leaders, but officials watch journalists closely to prevent them from unauthorized conversations with North Koreans or questioning the policies, actions, or public statements of North Korea's leadership. North Korea has confiscated objectionable material from foreign journalists. Journalists who engaged in activities that challenged the regime have been deported, arrested, or detained to face criminal charges. For additional information on the lack of freedom of information in North Korea, see the Department of State's Human Rights Report for North Korea.
Humanitarian Relief and Sanctions: North Korea has experienced famine, flooding, fuel and electricity shortages, and outbreaks of disease. Many countries, including the United States, have contributed to international relief efforts to assist the people of North Korea. North Korea is subject to multilateral restrictions and sanctions, including those contained in United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1718, 1874, 2087, 2094, 2270, and 2321 . In addition, the United States and other countries have adopted national sanctions or other measures designed to curb North Korea's unlawful and destabilizing actions and policies, including its nuclear, ballistic missile, and proliferation activities.
Tourism: Do not assume that joining a tour group will keep you safe in North Korea. Do assume that all of your activities will be closely monitored and reported to DPRK authorities. Do assume that the revenue generated by your tour group will help finance the DPRK's nuclear program.
Consular Access: Although North Korea is a party to the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (VCCR), it routinely delays or denies Sweden's access to U.S. citizen detainees.
Emergency Services: If you require emergency services, ask your North Korean escorts to inform the Embassy of Sweden.
Dual Nationality: North Korea does not recognize dual nationality. If you are of Korean heritage – even if you are a U.S. citizen – you could be subject to ten years of military service in North Korea and taxes on foreign source income. Please see our information on dual nationality.
U.S. Government Economic Sanctions Against North Korea: The U.S. government maintains comprehensive sanctions against North Korea due to its human rights record, nuclear weapons programs, weapons proliferation activities, and other provocative actions. The importation and exportation of goods, services, and technology from or to North Korea are generally prohibited unless authorized by the Office of Foreign Assets Control and, for exports or goods, the Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security.
The government of North Korea and the Workers' Party of Korea are blocked persons, and U.S. citizens may generally not engage in transactions with them or with their property. Most exports to North Korea are subject to licensing by the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security.
Multilateral Sanctions: The United States abides by multilateral restrictions and sanctions with respect to North Korea, including those contained in United Nations Security Council resolutions 1718, 1874, 2087, 2094, 2270, and 2312, which were adopted in response to North Korea's nuclear tests and rocket launches. For additional information, see the websites of the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control and the Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security..
Customs Regulations: North Korean authorities may seize documents, literature, audio and video files, computer equipment, DVDs, USB drives and other digital media, and letters deemed by North Korean officials to be pornographic or intended for religious proselytizing or subversive activities. If you carry pornographic or religious materials into North Korea, you could be detained, fined, imprisoned, or expelled. It is advisable to contact the DPRK Mission to the United Nations or a DPRK embassy or consulate in a third country for specific information regarding customs requirements. Foreign cell phones will not work in DPRK. Please see our information on customs regulations.
Faith-Based Travelers: See the Department of State's International Religious Freedom Report.
LGBTI Travelers: There are no legal restrictions on same-sex sexual relations because same-sex sexual relations are considered a foreign phenomenon. DPRK claims that there are no LGBTI in the country. It would therefore not be possible to organize an LGBTI event here.
Additionally, any open demonstration of affection is frowned upon, also between opposite sex couples.
See our LGBTI Travel Information page and section 6 of the Department of State's Human Rights report for further details.
Persons with Mobility Issues. Hotels and medical facilities are generally accessible. Pavements/curbs are high, however.
Students: See our Students Abroad page and FBI travel tips.
Women Travelers: See our travel tips for Women Travelers.
We advise persons with medical problems against traveling to North Korea. Medical facilities in the DPRK lack resources and electricity. Medical personnel have inadequate or outdated skills. Hospitals in Pyongyang can perform basic examinations and lifesaving measures, but functioning x-ray facilities are not generally available. Avoid surgery. If you have an accident outside Pyongyang, transport back to the capital can be lengthy and without medical assistance.
Carry your regular medication with you along with the doctor's prescription. DPRK Customs says that most prescription medication may be brought into the country with no restrictions. Hospitals will expect immediate U.S. dollar cash payment for medical treatment. You cannot use credit cards or checks in the DPRK.
Medical Evacuations: Local DPRK hosts are often not aware of options available for medical evacuations and might claim that no such options exist. Insist on contacting the Embassy of Sweden, which will attempt to arrange flight clearances for air ambulances performing emergency medical evacuations. Costs for medical air evacuation vary, but according to SOS International, an evacuation from Pyongyang to Beijing averages approximately USD 40,000 including medical personnel (1 doctor and 1 nurse), the aircraft, and clearance costs.
The General Bureau of the Koryo Civil Aviation of the DPRK says that it provides around-the-clock service and that requests for air clearance will be granted within 24 hours. If a U.S. citizen with a medical emergency is in Pyongyang, the Embassy of Sweden can usually arrange a medical evacuation to Beijing in one day. If the patient is located outside Pyongyang, it will take longer.
Medical evacuation by regularly scheduled airlines can be arranged, but very few flights operate from Pyongyang to Beijing (Air Koryo and Air China), Shenyang (Air Koryo), or Vladivostok (Air Koryo). Air Koryo flights go to Shanghai only on a charter basis in the tourist season (April-October). In order to transit China, Chinese visas for injured foreigners and any escorts must be obtained prior to the evacuation from North Korea. Even in the case of a medical emergency, transit visas may take several days to arrange.
Evacuation across the DMZ to South Korea is not allowed.
Vaccinations: Information on vaccinations and other health precautions, such as safe food and water precautions and insect bite protection are located at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's hotline for international travelers at 1-877-FYI-TRIP (1-877-394-8747) or via the CDC Internet site.

Travel & Transportation
TRAFFIC SAFETY AND ROAD CONDITIONS: Road conditions and driving habits in a foreign country can differ significantly from those in the United States. The information below concerning North Korea is provided for general reference only. You are not allowed to drive in North Korea unless you hold a valid DPRK driver's license. Bicycles are unavailable for rental or purchase. Please refer to our Road Safety information.
AVIATION SAFETY OVERSIGHT: As there is no direct commercial air service between the United States and North Korea, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not assessed North Korea's Civil Aviation Authority for compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) aviation safety standards. Further information may be found on the FAA's safety assessment page.
As a result of concerns arising from unannounced missile launch activities and GPS navigation systems interference and/or disruption, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a Prohibition and Advisory notice to U.S. airmen and operators. The FAA has issued Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) 79 which prohibits U.S. civil aviation from flying in the Pyongyang Flight Information Region (FIR) west of 132 degrees east longitude, and the FAA has advised those flying in and around the Pyongyang (FIR) east of 132 degrees east longitude to be aware of possible GPS interruptions. For more information, U.S. citizens should consult the Federal Aviation Administration's Prohibitions, Restrictions, and Notices.

Seigetsu Ren: Hi, I'm back. This time it took less than a year, for which I'm glad. For those who read my other stories, I'm currently revising A Different Journey (Inuyasha) and Another Promise (Love Hina), so if anybody is interested in helping with the beta-reading, please tell me through reviews or PM or email. I'm also thinking of deleting some of my older fanfictions, so if you want them to remain, please tell me in the poll I've set up on my profile page. That's all for now. Anyways, so that I won't waste anymore time on this, please let me thank my reviewers: Mistress-of-eternal-Darkness, Miyoshi Murasaki, iijie, Princesa de la Luna, GreenRainbow10, Montastic, Taz, and StreetRacerSakura. Thanks for reading and reviewing; I really appreciate it.
Disclaimer: I may come to own a manga if I can drag my lazy hand over my tablet, but unfortunately, that's not the case.
"What if I refuse?"
"Well, since when has this become a choice?" Naraku questioned in return, lowering his gaze into a sharp, piercing stare, "But for your sake, I'll remake Sesshoumaru once I absorb his powers. Do not worry, by then, he would be completely tame, just like your pet. You probably realize by now that this is the only way you can ever possess him, right?"
As much as Kagura wanted to argue, no words came out her open mouth. For once, the villain was not lying. The current Sesshoumaru would not hesitate to cut her in half to save that miko, and she couldn't say she liked it…at all.
Fukai Mori
Chapter 21 – The Lord's Shield
She rode the wind in the deep night, eyes gazing at the silver moon crowning the pitch black skies overhead. Whirls of clouds shifted lazily across the heavenly velvet, covering and uncovering the crescent of light, making ominous shadows that devoured the silent forests. But Kagura liked it like this, so calm and peaceful, devoid of metal ringing in battle, blood spraying like crimson paint across the field. Though the moon shone like a pond of rippling water, the dancer thanked its inability to cast her reflection. Her eyes were the colour she hated the most, the colour that was her destiny; she would draw blood or shed it, those were her only choices.
Absentmindedly, she touched her hand to her left chest. There was no movement, no sound against her flesh. She smiled as though imagining something there, something beating warmth through her cold, rigid body. Only then would she be able to move as she liked, skipping over blades of grass, sprinting in the autumn breeze.
"I will be free," she muttered, wrapping her fingers around an invisible object in her palm and holding it tightly to her chest, guarding it like her most precious treasure. The last word rolled off her tongue and into the distance, its sound fading ever so quickly that it seemed as though it had never existed. She laughed at the silence, at the lack of an echo. It didn't matter that others didn't believe; she did. She would make it come true – her freedom.
Kagome kneeled on the battlefield, unable to move, just staring at the two youkai brothers fighting each other to the death. She had cried with all her might in hopes of reaching Inuyasha, but nothing changed; the transformed hanyou, eyes bloodshot and narrowed, face scarred with two violet stripes, kept hammering his sword down Sesshoumaru's. The Lord of the West backed in his steps. However gracefully he was waltzing away, it was still evident that he was retreating. He was not returning a single blow, only hopelessly deflecting the attacks rained upon him by the larger, stronger sword forged from his father's fang.
"Kagome-chan, watch out!" Sango called as a stray rock flew in her direction. The taijiya dashed towards the girl in the last second and managed to shove the two of them out of the projectile's way.
The impact with Sango's body sent Kagome flying into the dirt. The two women rolled a short distance before they could come to a halt at the bottom of the rocky slope where Kikyou was seated, clutching the wound on her shoulder. Sango struggled to sit up so that she could monitor the duels nearby. The white-haired boy named Hakudoushi seemed to be playing with the two men who took turns attacking him, his flaming horse dashing to and fro at a speed far greater than his opponents. With a strike of his naginata upon the ground, a flash of lightning shot towards the monk along with a shower of boulders the size of human heads. Miroku managed to open his wind tunnel to vacuum the debris so that they didn't strike him square in the face, but while doing that, Hakudoushi rounded to his back and was about to strike him, only to be intercepted by Kouga.
"I owe you one, Kouga-kun," Miroku muttered with gritted teeth.
"Snap it off, Monk. It wasn't for your sake," the wolf demon replied. "Be careful not to suck in this white kid. He has Saimyoushou on him."
Hakudoushi grinned in response, "You spoiled the story, Wolf. I was going to trick him into sucking the Saimyoushou hive. Now, you leave no option but for me to kill you first."
The demon horse, Entei, released a ball of fire, nearly scorching Kouga. The wolf demon leapt back, only to come into the range of Hakudoushi's naginata. Miroku rushed forth and blocked the crescent blade with his staff; the two weapons repulsed in a loud ring.
"Houshi-sama!" Sango called, her screaming voice screeching at such a high pitch that the trailing syllable became lost. Kagome could see the overwhelming concern written on the taijiya's face, her desperate wish to come to the monk's aid yet her obligation to protect the two girls by her side. Kagome grit her teeth, staring at Kikyou whose eyes remain closed while pain etched itself on her face, then back to Sango who gulped down her tears so that they would not overflow.
She squeezed the taijiya's hand, causing the older girl to turn in her direction.
"Sango, I'll take care of Kikyou…and myself. I promise." Kagome asserted, the flickering lights from within Midoriko's cave playing across her countenance to be reflected off her hard, determined orbs. Sango hesitated, but returned her grip on the modern girl's hand.
"Please be careful. I'll come back as soon as possible."
With that, Sango ran up the slope to aid Miroku and Kouga in battle. Kagome let her eyes glance one last time at her vanishing figure before turning towards Kikyou.
"Are you really fine with this, Kagome?" the elder miko said in a barely audible voice. Despite the fading quality of her tone, her words still sounded dignified, as though commanding the younger girl to listen and answer thoughtfully.
"What do you mean? There is no way I can monopolize Sango when Miroku and Kouga are fighting for their lives. Here, give me your hand. We should get out of here too before another rock comes flying in our faces."
Kikyou did not take Kagome's offering hand. She just narrowly opened her eyes, focusing them on her reflection in hopes of reaching deep into her reincarnation's mind, "What I meant was…are you really fine with staying by my side, protecting me? You have no obligation to do so, so please think carefully about such a risky decision. No one would blame you if you were to run away. I can hardly take a single step in my current state, so I will only be a burden."
...and do you not feel hatred towards me, Kagome?
The younger girl felt that this was the true question the miko was asking her. She wanted to say, "no, I don't hate you", but she couldn't say it. She didn't want to lie, most of all, didn't want to lie to herself. In truth, when she thought deeply about it, she pondered – would everything be better if Kikyou stayed dead? Such a thought caused her to turn towards where Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru were battling. The way the hanyou lunged despite the scars his elder brother carved on his body, the way he clenched his fist so tight that they bled; all his involuntary motions made her heart ache. If not for Kikyou, Inuyasha would never have walked into this trap. If she didn't exist, perhaps everything would be okay.
"I…" Kagome began, trying to find the right words, but failing. She took a deep breath and tried again, "I have wondered if it would be better for you to die."
Kikyou smiled knowingly, "And you should. I have wondered the same."
For a second, Kagome thought that she would say, "But Inuyasha would blame me if you died". However, those words didn't come, because in the end, she figured that was not the reason she was here.
She would stay here, beside Kikyou, keeping the miko alive even at the cost of her life. She had finally decided that.
"But thinking more about it, I think it's better that you live."
"Because of Inuyasha?"
"That's a minor issue. Yes, Inuyasha would probably be happy if you lived, since you've made him the person he now is, not a despised hanyou, but a compassionate person who is loved by his companions. But that's something important to Inuyasha, not me."
"Then, I suppose you want to save me on your own accord?"
"Yes, because I respect you. To live your entire life saving people…that's something I can't do. Even now, you're still giving it your all to kill Naraku. It's not just hatred that's propelling you, right?"
Kikyou widened her eyes, "Why do you suppose that is the case? It is true that I hate Naraku."
"I wasn't sure before, but now I'm certain. Before, you had nothing to lose. You were thinking of returning to the dead, taking Naraku with you, right? But seeing you this time, I feel that you've found a meaning in this new life. You don't want to die anymore, but you're still pursuing Naraku – aren't you trying to reach a world without his evil?"
"Good and evil are eternally mixed. Even without Naraku, evil will still exist," the miko said with a light chuckle, "But you are right. I suppose I have reclaimed hope. No matter how slight the chances are, I wish to believe that if I can just erase a little bit of evil from this world, something more beautiful will await us in the future."
"That's why you confronted Naraku? That's why you didn't run away?"
"Yes. That must be your reason too, am I right, Kagome?"
The younger girl laughed a little while pulling Kikyou's arms over her shoulders so that she could carry the miko to a place of safety, "At first, I was just doing this because I thought it was my fault the jewel was broken. I guess even now, it's still a factor, but I think there are more important things to consider than that."
"Even though this was not your time, there was nothing here important to you, you have changed."
"Yeah. Inuyasha…and everybody else…I want to live with them, in a world where we don't have to fight anymore. And whatever era that world exists in will become 'my time'."
Kikyou glanced to Sesshoumaru whose keen eyes were focused on his half-brother, brows knitted while he concentrated on trying to save himself without killing his opponent. She certainly hoped for the same era Kagome was dreaming of, an era in which she could live with those who were important to her.
Kagura arrived in the midst of violet light rippling across the plain in front of Midoriko's cave. In the waves of luminenscence, Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru's battle raged on, with the hanyou in the offence, slashing the darkened Tessaiga towards the taiyoukai. The enormous fang crashed onto the ground beside where Sesshoumaru stood just a moment ago, shattering the rocky soil in a violent flash of yellow. The Kaze no Kizu ripped in the taiyoukai's direction, but he leapt away, narrowly parrying the blow. Kagura noticed that he was a lot slower than he usually was, barely skipping out of the way, and his prized Tokijin was chipped so badly that it didn't seem capable of taking one more hit.
If she had a heart, it would've been jumping out her rib cage. For once, she was thankful for its absence; at least she could just take a deep breath and turn away from the scene. Nonetheless, Kagura knew that time was crucial. She had none to spare. Walking away from the shelter of the forest, she made her figure visible, causing Kagome to gasp from where she was sitting with Kikyou.
"Ka…gura?" she muttered, pulling out her bow. The dancer stepped up to the girl in the blink of an eye and placed her hand on the red wood.
"Trust me, it'd be faster for a youkai as me to break this than for you to release an arrow. If you value your life, step aside."
Kagome gritted her teeth, not wishing to back down, but she heard ruffling sounds from behind her. Kikyou was struggling to stand up, using a fallen tree branch as her cane. The miko walked in front of her reincarnation to confront the newcomer.
"It would be easy for you to kill me in this state, Kagura, why are you hesitating?"
The dancer gave a bitter laugh, opening her fan to hide her contorted countenance, "Yes, it would be easy…but meaningless."
"So you figured?" Kikyou asked.
So you figured that Naraku would kill you either way?
"It is my destiny, and I've come to accept it. This has been a shitty life, but for a life working under Naraku, there has been some good moments. This will be my last one, so let me prove my worth."
Kagura said this to Kikyou in a low voice, almost smiling at everything she was saying. She touched the white feathers on her hair and removed both of them in a swift motion, causing her raven strands to cascade down her back.
"Please kill Naraku…" she muttered, placing the feathers in Kikyou's palms. They were light, but they were warm, glowing radiantly in the night.
"Aramitama, the Soul of Courage?" Kikyou whispered, shocked. By then, Kagura was already headed for battle. Only the side of her visage was slightly visible.
And please purify my soul, so I can finally be free.
How nice would it be, to live like Kikyou? Kagura thought this in her mind as she walked towards the light of the duelling brothers. It was almost beautiful to see the streaks of red and white dance, golden eyes glaring while the power of their youki clashed. This would be where she rested. It was not bad, she mused, but if only she could be gazed at by the taiyoukai like the way he looked at the undead miko, even if just a single moment, it would be enough.
Unfortunately, she knew it could not happen.
But that was perhaps how she liked Sesshoumaru to be, the cold, honourable youkai who lived only by his own will. If he would so easily bend by her wishes, then he wouldn't be the Sesshoumaru she loved. The Sesshoumaru who was as free as she had ever wanted to be.
Even though he didn't belong to her, it was okay.
He was still a dream she could see for the remainder of eternity.
"Naraku, aren't you going to return my heart now? Return it so I can die?" Kagura chided, knowing that her cowardly master was watching everything she was doing. This must've been her happiest moment; to defy all the things she hated, to embrace everything she loved.
Even if she were to die, she would be free. She would make it happen.
When Sesshoumaru was finally pushed to a corner, forced to use his Tokijin, Kagura was by his side.
Inuyasha roared, Tessaiga pounding on the inferior fang. The Tokijin bent and snapped.
Like butter, Inuyasha sliced his opponent.
The last time he called her name, like all the other rare instances, was melody to her ears.
While she took the blow as her lord's shield, Kagura smiled, and fell.
New AN (2016-07-13): This story is not being updated currently, as I am revising all the chapters. The earliest estimate for updates to resume is in the fall of 2016. Thanks.

Encouraging the Conversation
Have you ever found yourself in conversation with someone whose area of expertise totally stumps you? Here are some suggestions on what to do to make the most of the networking opportunity.
First, don't try to wing it, because you'll make mistakes and look foolish. Why would you want to fake it anyway? There's no shame in not knowing about a topic you've never studied. When referring to something that's not too difficult, you may have used the expression, "It's not brain surgery", but did you ever stop to think that to a brain surgeon it might be just as appropriate to say, "It's not accounting" or "It's not desktop publishing" or even "It's not rock music"? Will Rogers once said, "We're all ignorant - just in different subjects". Personally, I believe the only reason I can't perform brain surgery is that I've never studied it, but that doesn't mean I am less intelligent or worthy than a brain surgeon, does it?
If we're not embarrassed to admit we don't know about brain surgery, or rocket science, why should we be concerned about admitting ignorance of any topic? Perhaps there's a clue right there in the word I used. "Ignorance" is a loaded term, isn't it? But the Oxford Dictionary defines it simply as "lacking in knowledge", with no connotation of shame. In fact, I'd suggest that admission of ignorance is the first step towards learning-and often to a truly interesting conversation.
To take advantage of this idea, try some of these conversation encouragers:
I haven't had any exposure to the world of professional music. Is it really as exciting as it looks from the outside?
By using this wording, you are granting the other person the status of insider. Since we all enjoy talking about our special knowledge, that will usually encourage him or her to give you all sorts of information.
Your enthusiasm about this subject is infectious. What is it about it that so fascinates you?
You have subtly complimented the speaker, who will subconsciously want to convey the same fascination to you.
I'm afraid I don't know anything about the publishing business. Would you explain what that expression means?
When you have admitted ignorance of a subject, there is no such thing as a stupid question, so go ahead and ask away!
(By the way, this last question is also very useful when purchasing services. Have you ever received an order back from the printer, only to find it was not what you had envisioned? You could probably have saved time and money by admitting your lack of knowledge right up front and letting the specialist help you order exactly what you wanted.)
Did you notice the common element in all three examples? Yes, I am inviting the person to tell me more. There's no more effective conversation technique than asking people about themselves and their interests - and then genuinely listening to their answers. During my networking workshops, people often tell me they are nervous about meeting new people because they don't know what to say. If that's your challenge, why not turn this around, and consider what to ask?

If you're a car guy who's anywhere south of 100, or anywhere north of 30, chances are you know exactly where "east bound and down" came from. If you know where "east bound and down" came from, it's a good possibility you're very familiar with this 1977 Pontiac Trans Am Special Edition. And if you have fond memories of this Trans Am SE, I'm certain you know the meaning of both 'numbers-matching' and 'investment grade'. What's my point? If you're one of the growing number of enthusiasts rediscovering just how cool F2 Trans Ams are, but aren't quite sure you want to regress that far into youth, here's your chance to throw a little sophistication into the mix. Fully restored and ready to roll, this brassy black and gold 'bird isn't just a bold throwback to simpler times and cooler cars, it's a blue chip commentary on a smart investment for the future. So, if you're into big block American muscle and giant Screamin' Chicken decals, order up some flutes of Coors, throw on the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra's Down on the Farm and toast your next classic!
Before we jump head-first into this tin indian's detailed description, I'll go ahead and break down both its VIN and cowl tag:
- 2: Pontiac Motor Division
- W: Trans Am
- 87: Sports coupe
- Z: 400 cubic inch V8
- 7: 1977 model year
- N: Assembled in Norwood, Ohio

- 05A – Assembled during the first week (A) of May (05), 1977
- WS4 – Trans Am
- BLK – Secondary interior color: Black
- 750293 – Fisher Body time and date code.
Assembled at GM's famous Norwood manufacturing facility, this pristine Trans Am began a long, accident-free tour of America's backroads in May of 1977. In December of 2013, the car, a solid, all-original survivor, was freshened to road-ready condition. And today, logging virtually no miles since that thorough dust off, it reflects fresh Starlight Black two-stage under Special Edition outlining stripes and an iconic Special Edition hood decal.
Despite their minimalist brightwork, second generation Trans Ams were highly decorated cars that brought new meaning to the word 'details'. At the front of this 'bird, straight and glossy urethane hangs Special Edition headlight buckets and a small "PONTIAC" script between a correct "TRANS AM" call-out and traditional red arrowhead. Behind that urethane, a great looking "T/A-6.6" branded hood anchors like-new glass beneath painted stainless trim and exclusive Hurst T-tops. At the sides of that hood, correct "TRANS AM" call-outs and Special Edition B-pillar birds complement traditional fender vents, black-accented door handles and correct wheel spoilers. And at the back of the car, a rounded D80 trunk wing aligns a correct "TRANS AM" call-out above factory-fresh tail lights, a small "PONTIAC" script and familiar side splitter exhaust tips.
Pop this Poncho's dramatic hood and you'll find a stout, 400 cubic inch Pontiac V8. Thanks to government-mandated emissions standards, performance had almost been legislated out of existence; and that left the Trans Am suffering a bit of an identity crisis. This 'bird's chrome-trimmed big block combined the largest muscle car engine you could buy with Pontiac's proven "6X" head design to create one of the fastest pony cars on the market. At the top of the smooth mill, a big Rochester carburetor, a modern HEI distributor and thick Belden spark plug wires ride under a familiar Trans Am shaker. Below those components, warm GM Corporate Blue paint coats the entire block, while correct cast iron manifolds funnel spent gases into factory-fresh exhaust pipes. All the hard parts around the motor, from the fresh brake booster and rebuilt alternator to the big radiator and fender plenum air tube, appear to be functional and reliable. The car's clean hood and engine bay are covered in a nice coat of GM Satin Black paint. And, as expected, there's pliable belts, clean hoses and a strong battery.
At the bottom of this fully sorted F2, original, Red Oxide floorpans ride a garage-fresh, Satin Black chassis. In the middle of that chassis, a date-correct Borg Warner 4-speed sends power to a familiar GM 10-bolt and mild, highway-friendly gears. Below that stellar drivetrain, a rebuilt WS4 suspension, which includes power steering, thicker sway bars, better shocks and stiffer springs, combines with standard issue power front disc and rear drum brakes to provide quick stops and great handling. At the center of that suspension, a modern exhaust system barks a deep, vintage roar through an X-shaped crossover and a correct, transversely-mounted muffler. At the corners of that exhaust, striking snowflakes spin gold, Special Edition paint between 'red bird' center caps and modern 225/70 BF Goodrich Radial T/As. And all the car's hardware and bushings, from its leak-free fuel tank to its correctly installed emergency brake cable, appear to be lucid and in good shape.
Open this Pontiac's massive black doors and you'll find a deluxe vinyl interior that wraps gold, Special Edition trim in a whole lot of old school style! The airy cockpit begins with thick seats that are plush, crisp and look every bit as nice as their rich theme implies. Below those seats, like-new carpet centers a molded console on a familiar Hurst shifter. At the sides of that carpet, hard to find door panels feature bright chrome hardware. Above those panels, a stain-free headliner stretches tightly around the aforementioned T-tops. In front of the driver, an optional tilt steering column spins a gold Formula steering wheel around a gold, engine-turned instrument panel. And behind the passengers, a Space Saver spare hides in a fully restored trunk.
Professionally freshened, from its factory Hurst T-tops all the way to its slick gold snowflakes, this fully sorted Trans Am is the perfect investment for any Bandit enthusiast! This is the kind of car you show at the nationals on Saturday, then drive to work on a sunny Monday morning. Are you in the market for a clean, late model F2? NOW is the time to buy a correct, low-mileage showpiece to enjoy for years to come!

About Me~IMPORTANT~
Before booking any shoots, I want to meet with you at least once for coffee/lunch/etc. to get an initial introduction, see if our personalities work well together, rule out any potential creepiness, and discuss our concepts.
I am a full-time college student, so that leaves me with little time/money to travel for shoots, so at the time being, I can only do shoots in the Twin Cities & surrounding areas. I don't have a car, so our shoot location has to be accessible by bus/light rail, unless we set something else up.
I am very interested in fashion, alternative, & lifestyle modeling. I tend to look at things a little differently and like to do things that aren't always seen in the mainstream.
I'm mostly looking to do high fashion/street fashion/lifestyle shoots. I am signed to a small, new local agency (Rogue Models), but I am mostly looking to do freelance to build a great portfolio.
I have runway experience and absolutely love and prefer walking shows, so I am always willing to walk for designers!

Bayless brings message of local food to Extension audience
For Chicago-based chef Rick Bayless, well-known for his commitment to using local ingredients in his dishes, one incident stands out in his memory for why he became passionate about supporting small, family farmers.
Community Thanksgiving Dinner back for 41st year
URBANA — Urbana High School is hosting its 41st annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner for community members.
The meal is scheduled from 5 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 22, 2012, in the high school's Commons and will feature turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, vegetables, cranberry sauce and pie.
No reservations are required.
Indoor market starts Saturday at Lincoln Square Village
URBANA — The indoor Holiday Market at Lincoln Square Village will begin Saturday and continue for five more Saturday mornings through Dec. 15.
All items sold at the market — which runs from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. — are to be home-grown, baked or crafted within Illinois, said Shannon Beck, events coordinator for the Urbana Business Association.
Business roundup: Manager chosen for Stone Creek course
URBANA — Northbrook-based KemperSports has been chosen by The Atkins Group to manage Stone Creek Golf Club in Urbana.
KemperSports operates golf facilities as well as athletic clubs, lodging venues and major sporting events.
Star of live cooking show has put focus on childhood obesity
CHAMPAIGN — Tickets are still available for a day of healthy eating events with British comic cook Jon Ashton.
The Liverpool-raised chef will perform a live cooking show from 1 to 3 p.m. Oct. 14 as part of his Dash Around The Table Tour.
He is also talking about childhood obesity.
Weinermobile schedules Champaign stop
CHAMPAIGN — The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will visit Champaign on Thursday, stopping at the County Market store at 2901 W. Kirby Ave., C, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Oscar Mayer has been using the giant hot dog on wheels as a promotional attraction since 1936.
The Wienermobile has gone through many redesigns — and even a retirement — since then.
Paxton weighs loan to help eatery expand
PAXTON — Ever since Silvia Rodriguez and her husband, Nahum, bought Paxton's longest-operating restaurant several years ago, the need for more space in the small downtown cafe was apparent.
Tequila bar set for Carmon's old space
CHAMPAIGN — Victor and Ezequiel "Sammy" Fuentes plan to open a tequila bar and grill in the former Carmon's building in downtown Champaign.
"If everything goes well, it will open in about six weeks," Victor Fuentes said, adding he hopes to close on the purchase of the building at 415 N. Neil St., C, this week.
Waffles no longer available on street
CHAMPAIGN — It was a good run, said Crave Truck owner Zach Ware, but his notoriously red "street waffle" food truck will be making only one more appearance before it's permanently garaged.
Group leasing lot for community garden
URBANA — Apartment living hasn't stopped Robin Arbiter and many of her neighbors lacking a yard from growing vegetables, flowers and herbs in the tiny spaces outside their windows.
"The impulse to grow gardens and flowers is very visible in the neighborhood," she says.

Linked: White House and 'urban terrorism' | Book documents president's dedication to organization set on collapsing America
Barack Obama's favorite advocacy organization, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), is part political group, part crime syndicate and part urban terrorist organization, according to a stunning new book, "Subversion Inc.," by award-winning investigative journalist Matthew Vadum.
Vadum, senior editor at Capital Research Center, a think tank that studies left-wing advocacy groups and their funders, has assembled the information from nearly three years of research and hundreds of interviews, in the project.
He documents how ACORN's sinister motives, however, never stopped Obama from supporting the organization. Obama organized its voter drives, represented it in court, trained its activists, and mentored its leaders. In fact, ACORN was so important to Obama that during the 2008 presidential campaign he felt compelled to reassure ACORN officials that he was still a steadfast ally.
"I've been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drives in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work" – Barack Hussein Obama
The book reveals that much of the time ACORN operates outside the legitimate political process, waging war against America's free institutions. The book explains that as ACORN is in the business of subverting the American system, what Americans saw on the celebrated undercover "pimp and pro" videos released in 2009, in which various ACORN operatives apparently aligned themselves with a purported pimp looking to set up a prostitution ring of underage girls, was just another day at the office at the nation's most infamous pressure group.

BBW dating: Super slimmer lost admirers as well as 19 stonePosted on: September 14, 2011 16:54:12
BBW singles looking for large love using online dating sites may look to super slimmer Pauline Allen, who lost her male admirers after dropping 19 stone in weight.
The dieter told the Sun that men used to find her 32-stone, 52DD body attractive, but now that she's lost the weight, she is finding it harder to find love interests.
Pauline, of Porthcawl, south Wales, said when she was big she particularly attracted men who loved to "feed" her.
She added: "One guy who asked me out insisted on dinner instead of drinks and said, 'I just want to watch you eat'."
Another hot date insisted that she get the largest portion of fish and chips for her meal.
But Pauline is not giving up hope of finding her dream dating partner, as she has now realised that maybe men prefer love handles after all.
A study by researchers in Georgia, USA found that curvy women have the same effect on men as alcohol or drugs.

First time to Jamaica.
We traveled with a few other couples and to sum this resort up...it's nice for the money.
I have traveled extensively, my last several vacations to some very high end resorts so this one although nice & clean, was not exactly my cup of tea. Don't get me wrong, it was not the worst place I have ever stayed, just not the best.
We arrived to a packed house at the airport, but customs still went smoothly...YEA ! Ride to the resort from the airport was approx 35 - 40 minutes. It went by fast as we marveled at "driving on the left side" of the road. I would have trouble with that...LOL
We were greeted with the usual "welcome cocktail" this one being Rum Punch....it was tasty & hit the spot after a long day of travel. Check in was super easy and we were pleased to find out our rooms were basically all together and we were in the building I had requested ahead of time...bonus. Rooms are nice, very spacious & clean. Our cleaning person, Patricia did an EXCELLENT job as well as being a sweetheart. We made sure to leave her money each day as she totally deserved it. They clean rooms once a day...no turn down service, but that was fine. Bed is not as bad as people say but....I was so tired each night, it didn't matter, I have slept on some "dreamy" beds though & this one was just so-so. Pillows are as people said..flat & small. Yes, they did have a pillow menu for an additional charge which after waking up several days with a sore neck, I decided to try. We called the front desk and arranged for two pillows from the menu, while she was writing up the receipt my husband mentioned my sore neck and she immediately crossed off the $12 and said no charge. Ok, we did only have two nights left, but that was still very nice. :-)
The pool is HUGE and I mean huge. No problems getting a chair. The pool & Infinity Bar in my opinion, are the highlight of this resort. I also like that there is a wall between the shallow pool area and the deeper end, it keeps the kiddies to a minimum at the swim-up bar :-)
Water was a bit cool, but felt good after sitting in the sun, we did not have the best weather our week, but it was much better than the snow & cold we left behind so it was all good.
Restaurants were all decent, nothing spectacular, nothing horrible. Our least favorite being the Mexican....we LOVE Mexico so are spoiled. This was not really Mexican. Our fav place to eat being the steak house, second the Caribbean(try the pork chop & the coconut shrimp..YUM) We also liked the Jerk Chicken hut by the beach, worth the walk over.
Did not do any of the shows, but did see the band at the Infinity bar each night. That bar is just stunning, we watched the sunset one night from up there...so nice. They also had great bartenders, they made a great effort to make our fav cocktail....dirty martini's :-)
Also right by the Infinity bar is Miss Lou's...Joy makes the most delicious cappuccino. That was our afternoon treat. We'd leave the pool and go see Joy before heading to get ready for dinner.
We did a catamaran cruise with Dreamer Catamarans...that was allot of fun...watch out for that rum punch...ouch !! Also did Mayfield Falls...so much more intimate than Dunn's River and allot closer. Also did Rick's Cafe....a very fun, pretty place. My hubby did the famous "jump" and said it was exciting. Not for me it wasn't...LOL
We had a really nice time but....I think I would have liked to be a bit closer to town. A ride into either Negril or Montego Bay was $100 ....YIKES ! We had planned on doing dinner in Negril one night, but that $100 kept us at the resort, next time we stay closer to town. People were generally very friendly..only once were we asked if we "smoked" & I said no, never have, never will.... and that was it.
I will return to Jamaica some day but .... Mexico is our first love.

Woke up this morning to an explosion of e-mails about the potential trade I reported the Cavs were thinking about last night. It is important to point out that the Cavs and many NBA teams have discussions about big trades all the time. Obviously they intensify around the deadline as teams get serious about shaking up their roster. The Cavs are no different. The rumors that I have heard may only represent 10 percent of what the Cavs are thinking/talking about. I talk to various people from various teams across the league, I don't have sources in every organization and the information I bring to you is the best and most credible I can find. The overall chances of a "blockbuster deal" -- and boy has that term been devalued a little in the NBA over the last couple weeks -- are still less than 50/50 in my opinion.
As a Cavs fan what you need to know is that the front office is honestly looking at trying to make a deal to improve the team. That is the real reason why I decided to write the story about them considering a major deal. They are not simply standing pat as I hear them often being accused of. And not just for the top available players in the Jason Kidd/Mike Bibby class. They are trying to get creative and trying to balance out the short term and long-term benefits. Let me also add something else, I think the Cavs do like the team they have now. And that comes from players, from coaches and from the front office. If there is nothing done the Cavs still feel like they have a shot to beat anyone if they can get fully get healthy. LeBron James of course would like to get better and that is not original thinking, who wouldn't? But he's also made it clear he likes his teammates, so remember that if nothing happens by 3 p.m.
One more thing just to calm some of the waters. I have not once heard Zydrunas Ilgauskas' name come up in a trade rumor this season. That doesn't mean it hasn't come up in trade talks, but he is not part of the potential deal I was talking about. However, Z and the Cavs do have a little issue going on behind the scenes about him playing for the Lithuanian national team.

A total of 11 Bos primigenius and Bos taurus bones from archaeological sites between 500 and 12000 years old were examined for the presence of DNA. It was possible to amplify and sequence mitochondrial control region DNA extracted from seven of the 11 samples, including two Pleistocene B. primigenius samples. We compared the results with published data by constructing phylogenetic networks. The two B. primigenius samples clustered with the extant B. taurus samples in the networks. The similarity between B. primigenius and modern taurine cattle confirms that these should be considered members of a single species. The sequences obtained from the B. taurus specimens were either identical to the reference sequence for modern European cattle or closely related to it. They included two sequences not previously documented. The network analysis of the ancient data highlights the intermediary nature of the B. primigenius sequences between modern European and African B. taurus and the proximity of the ancient DNA B. taurus sequences to modern European B. taurus. Further analysis of the extant data in the light of the ancient DNA results suggests that a degree of Pleistocene diversity survives in the extant European Bos population that is mainly derived from a more recent population expansion.

Student Advocates for Diversity and Inclusion
Our Mission
Our primary mission as Student Advocates for Diversity and Inclusion is to improve how our department handles academic and social diversity issues. We hope to increase the retention number of HUGs (historically underrepresented groups) in upper level computer science classes, as well as increase the number of students concentrating in computer science. We also hope to raise awareness of the issues that are ongoing in our department such as the lack of diversity among our TA program, which is the main source of instruction for our introductory classes. We hope that our initiative creates a more inclusive environment that allows students to thrive academically while also creating a diverse social atmosphere that is welcoming to all.
When students are in their roles as student advocates they are not required to share any information disclosed. They will not answer questions about people with whom they may have spoken, or disclose an individual's name or specific issue unless during the course of the discussion, the student advocate is given explicit permission by the individual to do so. The only exception to this is if the student advocate determines that there is an imminent risk of serious harm. Student advocates will, however, keep statistical information for analyzing and reporting trends of issues, and provide recommendations to the diversity committee.

Althira was an Ashalan Priestess and sahir. He was possibly a member of the Council of Twelve.
Ashalan Edit
Althira was one of the ruling body of the Ashalan. [1]
Insane Shilah Edit
Althira believed Shilah, Lady Sun, was insane the Day of Wrath and the Ashalan had to awake Lord Moon. Only in this way the balance would be restored. [2]
Midnight Edit
A member of the Council of Four, Midnight, was returning with important information. He was chased a jinn of the Kaleel's Legion. During the chase Midnight took a human with him, Hakim Yamen, of the Houses of Dahab, who was used as vessel of Midnight's soul after he was defeated by the jinn. [1]
Hakim Yamen Edit
Hakim was ensouled, and would be accepted as part of the Council upon he passed the Test of the Ebon Stone. Hakim, who had all of Midnight's memories, told Kaleel would return during the Awakening. [1]

Mental Health Team Program on Eating Disorders
Sunday, March 26, 2017 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Location: Main Sanctuary, Meeting Room
Through Thick and Thin: Exploring Body Image and Eating Disorders
Many of us have a loved one, or know someone, who has struggled with negative body image or an eating disorder. Many of us have struggled with these issues ourselves. In this informative and honest session, we'll explore body image—how a person perceives his or her physical self and the resulting thoughts and feelings, positive, negative, or both. We'll also delve into the complex and pervasive issue of eating disorders—serious, life-threatening illnesses that impact millions of people of all ages and genders. This session is designed to help you:
- reflect on personal and cultural relationships with food and body
- understand the different types of eating disorders
- increase your awareness of the signs and symptoms of these complex diseases
The Temple Isaiah Mental Health Initiative hopes that this understanding can lead to prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment and decrease the stigma often associated with these mental health conditions.
Our program will begin with a D'var by Rabbi Jill Perlman. Our moderator will be Cynthia Piltch, Ph.D, Health Educator and Chair of the Temple Isaiah Mental Health Team. Our keynote speaker will be clinical psychologist and Temple member Jodi Galin, Ph.D. We also will hear from long-time Temple Isaiah members Jamie and Leslie Goldberg and Karen Funkenstein. Jamie will talk about her battle with an eating disorder, and Leslie will speak from the perspective of a parent helping her child through this crisis; Karen will share her failures and successes with an eating disorder that was realized at age 37. Our speakers in recovery will highlight warning signs, issues in their struggles, and the hope that led to their recovery. Whether you've encountered eating disorders in your own life, or are concerned about helping your children develop positive body image, you will gain a lot from this program.
Jodi Galin, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist who has specialized in treating people with eating disorders for twenty years. She is passionate both about prevention and treatment and honored to have shared in the journey to full recovery for many teens and adults. She earned her BA degree in psychology from Swarthmore College and her Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Yeshiva University. She completed her clinical internship and post-doctoral training at New York Hospital/Cornell Medical Center in White Plains, NY. Over the years, Jodi has worked in inpatient, day hospital, intensive outpatient, and outpatient levels of care.
