Divorce can be stressful, emotionally trying and expensive. But just how difficult your divorce will be depends on a number of different circumstances. If you are fortunate enough to be able to seek an uncontested divorce, one where you and your spouse can come to an agreement about things like dividing your property and child custody (if you have children), then your divorce can be straightforward and relatively easy. You may even be able to complete your divorce without a lawyer. In this case, you simply need to find the required divorce papers for Massachusetts, fill them out correctly and present them to your local county clerk.
If you are a situation where you cannot come to an agreement with your spouse one option is to seek divorce mediation and for more complicated situations it may be advisable to seek a legal professional.
The following information will help you understand the basic divorce process in Massachusetts, and how you can move forward with your own divorce.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the divorce rate in Massachusetts in 2011 was 2.7 out of every 1,000 residents. The divorce rate in Massachusetts is lower than many other states in the country, and has been relatively low over the past 20 years.
Massachusetts requires that either your or your spouse have lived in the state for one year before you can begin the divorce process. The state allows both fault-based and no-fault divorces. In a fault-based divorce, you must present grounds for divorce, some of which include adultery and abandonment. In a no-fault divorce, you only need to state that the marriage is broken beyond repair. Many residents choose to seek a no-fault divorce as it is typically a shorter and less-costly process.
Massachusetts has several different divorce options, each requires specific divorce papers and documentation. The first option is a "1A" divorce, where you and your spouse file a joint petition to seek a no-fault divorce. The second is a "1B" divorce, where you file a complain on your own, still seeking a no-fault divorce. The third option is an individual complaint where you seek a fault-based divorce.
The Massachusetts Court System's website explains divorce in the state. If you are going to divorce it is advisable that you review all of the information available. The more you understand about how the state handles divorce, the better off you will be. The resource also has a section where you can download and print Massachusetts' divorce papers. However, there are many of options here, so it is worthwhile to take your time and read carefully before you start completing your divorce papers.
Many people find that it is easiest to get their Massachusetts divorce papers online from CompleteCase.com. Our divorce form preparation service helps to identify the correct documents for your individual needs, and guides you through the process of filing them out accurately. When you want to avoid delays or complications in your divorce, this kind of assistance can prove invaluable.
Once you have completed your Massachusetts divorce papers, you will want to print and file them with the county clerk where you or your spouse resides. The Massachusetts Court System website has a Court Locator, where you can find the appropriate court to file.
Before you go to the county court, we recommend that you to call ahead to verify that you are bringing everything the clerk will need in order to file your divorce. You will need to bring a payment for the state fee in a form that the court accepts – usually cash or certified check. In addition to the original forms you file with the court, you should make several copies of your divorce papers, including one to keep for your records and one to serve to your spouse.
You will also need to submit a certified copy of your marriage certificate when you file. Certified copies of marriage certificates are available from the Massachusetts secretary of state and from the city clerk where you were married.
The final filing requirement in Massachusetts is to serve the divorce papers to your spouse. If you and your spouse filed jointly (a 1A divorce), there is no need to serve the divorce papers. But with the other types of divorces, you will need to make sure your spouse gets copies of the divorce forms.
There are several options to serve your spouse in Massachusetts, including hiring a sheriff in the county where your spouse lives, or using a private constable. Note that these services come with a fee. Once served, you will need to submit proof to the court that your spouse was served in order to complete the filing process.
If you filed a 1A divorce, there is a 30 day waiting period before the court will make a judgment. It becomes final 90 days after entry. With a 1B divorce or a fault-based divorce, you will have to wait at least 6 months for the court to review the divorce. If you and your spouse are unable to come to an agreement, the case will go to trial, which can take a year or more, depending on the situation.

By Deborah Sharp, USA TODAY
Couples can find a mate, fill out a bridal registry and plan a honeymoon on the computer. Now they can also divorce online.
A Web site started last year by a Seattle attorney gives the unhappily wed in Washington, California, Florida and New York the option of dissolving their marriages online. Texas is next, and several other states are being considered.
The site is the latest twist in a do-it-yourself trend. Changing trends in the USA Average age of first marriage Divorce year male female Divorced Americans Divorces granted 1970 23.2 20.8 4.3 million 0.7 million 2000 26.8 25.1 19.9 million 1.2 million Sources: U.S. Census; National Center for Health Statistics
No national figures exist on self-representation. But some experts estimate that as many as half of 1.2 million couples divorcing annually in the USA do so without a lawyer representing at least one of the parties.
The Web site, www.completecase.com, differs from the many self-help sites offering advice, referrals or downloads of documents needed to file for divorce in a particular state.
For $249, the Web site prompts couples with questions on everything from dividing financial assets to deciding where the kids celebrate birthdays. The software then uses their answers to fill out the documents that a couple can download and submit to a court.
Requirements vary by locale as to whether a couple must show up in court or can mail in or fax their divorce filing. But in all cases, a judge must still sign the order ending a marriage.
Randy Finney, a family law attorney for 11 years and the founder of the Web site, says it was designed for uncontested divorces. It's not for couples with convoluted finances or for those fighting over child custody and who gets the dog.
"The decision to get a divorce comes way before the decision about how to get a divorce," says Finney, 35, who is happily married. "I don't think anyone takes their wedding vows so frivolously that they're going to get a divorce just because they can do it for $249."
Not everyone is thrilled with the notion of cyber-divorce.
Judges and lawyers fret that couples who use the Web site may believe they've had legal counsel when they haven't. And leaders in the movement to save marriages complain that point-and-click divorce further undermines the institution's supposed sanctity.
"I can only think of one use of the Internet that's worse and that's pornography," says Dennis Rainey, executive director of FamilyLife, a religious group based in Little Rock. "We're trying to do all we can to call people to keep their wedding vows."
FamilyLife has joined with 30 other organizations since 1999 in drawing 175,000 spouses nationwide to "I Still Do" ceremonies that affirm marriage.
Despite the marriage celebrations, about one-fifth of American men and women have been divorced at least once.
A study released last month by the U.S. Census shows about 90% of Americans will marry at some point. For men, 54% married just once. For women, 60%. Serial marriage is rare: Only 3% of Americans have married three times or more; 13% have married twice.
Finney estimates his Web site has helped 1,000 couples unhitch. Stacey Kiss of Seattle is among those who traveled to virtual Splitsville. The self-described "Internet junkie" says it took her and her husband of seven years about three hours one night to click through the Web site's detailed questions.
"We never got along on anything through our entire marriage, but we still managed to come to an agreement," says Kiss, 36, a hospital business-services manager. "Why drag it out and make it complicated?"
She says the online split was cheaper and easier than her first, traditional divorce. Now single, Kiss says she's comfortable with dot-com divorce, but she draws the line at cyber-dating.
"I like surfing the Web," she says, "but not for men."
Ernesto Gomez and his wife Blanca had been planning to get a divorce for three years. They had already separated and worked out custody and child support for their two kids. But they had stalled on filing because they didn't want to deal with the hassle and expense. Hiring a lawyer, they were told, would cost at least $1,500. Using a free service offered by the court would involve numerous meetings spread out over several weeks.
So when Gomez heard an ad on the radio for a service called completecase.com that would let him fill out the paperwork online for just $249, he decided to give it a try. Four days after he logged onto the site, he had the papers completed and filed in court. "CompleteCase gives you step-by-step instructions. You can't miss anything," says Gomez, a distribution-center manager in Miami.
Gomez is not the only one turning to the Internet to simplify the process. Other services, like divorcewizards. com and divorcesyourself.com also offer quickie online divorce kits, usually for $300 or less. No lawyer is involved unless a client chooses to pay extra for a consultation by phone or e-mail.
Brian Lee, president of legalzoom.com says his site has handled more than 30,000 divorces since its launch in 2001. Though people still have to convey their forms to the court, the process of filling out the paperwork can take less than an hour, thanks to simple online questionnaires that hand-hold customers through the process.
Online divorce is not an option if the couple can't agree on the terms. Even when they can, not everyone thinks it's a good idea. "Instant divorce is the last thing we need," says Mike McManus, president of the marriage advocacy group Marriage Savers. Instead of a divorce, McManus says, couples often just need time to cool off before working out their differences.
Still, such services are spreading. Utah and California offer do-it-yourself sites that let you fill the forms out online (for $20 at utcourts.gov/how to; free at www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp) Traffic on the California site rose from 6,800 page views in May 2002 to nearly 17,000 in May 2003. --By Anita Hamilton

Abstract: Californians can legally split from their spouses over the Web site http://www.completecase.com and never have to set foot in a courthouse or lawyer's office. Legal papers can be completed within anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours, depending on the complexity of the split, according to Randolph Finney, a Seattle-based family law attorney who founded the site.
For Californians, once the judge signs the documents, they are "legally binding and enforceable," says Finney, but per state law the divorce doesn't become finalized for six months.

The circle of online life is now complete. You can date online; you can marry online; and now you can divorce online.
Californians can legally split from their spouses over the Web site http://www.completecase.com and never have to set foot in a courthouse or lawyer's office. Legal papers can be completed within anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours, depending on the complexity of the split, according to Randolph Finney, a Seattle-based family law attorney who founded the site.
For a flat fee of $249, the site walks divorcing couples step-by- step through such issues as community property and calculating child support payments. When the online form is completed, the applicant simply signs the papers and mails them to the courthouse.
But it's not for everyone. It works only for those couples who are parting amicably and filing for an uncontested divorce. "If you can't agree on who gets the kids, our site is not for you," says Finney, a married 35-year-old.
The site debuted earlier this year, but only to residents of Washington state. Last month, California was added, and soon Florida, New York and Oregon are expected to be added. So far, the site has helped process hundreds of divorces, says Finney.
The site has drawn critics who denounce the online divorce as yet another blow to society's bedrock institutions. The very ease of the process, some contend, makes family and marriage as disposable as an old appliance. Indeed, a similar site in England was recently condemned by the pope as immoral because it made divorce too easy.
Naturally, Finney disagrees. "I think our Web site has the opposite effect," he said. "If you're going to get divorced, let's do it in a civil manner. I really don't believe having something available that makes it easier and costs less money is going to encourage divorce."
The inspiration for the project came from his law practice, where he primarily handles divorces. It took about a year to get the site up and running. "On almost a daily basis, I would get clients who said they needed a divorce but didn't have the money or the patience with the legal process to pursue it," he said. "These people are really stuck between a rock and a hard place."
For Californians, once the judge signs the documents, they are "legally binding and enforceable," says Finney, but per state law the divorce doesn't become finalized for six months. "It isn't quite as fast as a Las Vegas divorce," he says.

Ronald Coase, who died this month at the age of 102, was a remarkable thinker.
Born in 1910, he came of age just as big business (or more precisely, big corporations) were coming into their prime. These organizational structures were ideally adapted to the technological, economic and cultural environments of the "late industrial age." And his seminal paper "The Nature of the Firm," published in 1937, explained why. While Frederick Taylor and Alfred Sloan designed frameworks (and spawned new industries of business education and consulting) for managing the modern mega-corporation, Coase helped us understand their evolutionary success in the context of the environment in which they operated: an environment characterized by high growth, (mostly) abundant resources, standardization and perhaps most importantly, information scarcity and (relatively) high transaction costs.
His key insight that companies existed to reduce informational and transaction costs - created a robust intellectual foundation validating and encouraging the pursuit of ever larger - and thus transactionally efficient corporations. The M&A bankers of the late 20th century owe him an enormous debt of gratitude.
In the 20th century, banks and other financial institutions, when not constrained by regulation, took full advantage of these conditions, with the leading players in almost every country growing into massive, vertically integrated firms and enjoying, for the most part, tremendous success. Essentially firms that deal in data and information (money just being a specific form of same), banks enjoyed particularly strong Coasean advantages for most of the 20th century as the larger they grew, the more transactions they processed or mediated, the bigger their informational advantages. True efficiencies of scale.
Further, especially in the latter half of the century (and continuing today), the systemic and regulatory context favored continued growth: the too-big-to-fail phenomenon which we are so familiar with today. These advantages, as predicted by Coase's theory, were further buttressed by the spread of "first generation" information networks railways, airlines and telephony as integrated banks were able to take full advantage of these to lower internal transaction and management costs and expand geographically and in the scope of their activities. The global megabanks we know today were a predictable, perhaps inevitable, outcome arising from Coase's theories given the underlying market environment.
Then, starting in around 1971 (with Intel's launch of the 4004, the first microprocessor on a chip), our fundamental technological and economic paradigm began shifting.
This happened slowly at first, and accelerated through the nineties and 2000s as the continuous exponential progress of the technology of the Information Age began to be assimilated by our societies (cf. Moore's Law, Metcalfe's Law, etc.). This shift has profound consequences for businesses, some of which I believe can also be predicted through application of Coase's thinking. And as banks and other financial institutions inexorably become increasingly "digital" businesses, I believe these consequences will manifest themselves ever more acutely.
The highly regulated nature of banking affords the industry some temporal respite from these fundamental and emergent systemic forces driving optimal organizational structure acting as a brake or dampener with respect to the speed of change but is unlikely to provide a sustainable safe harbor from the "natural" underlying forces driving our economy and society.
While Coase postulated that the ability to profit from reduced transaction costs favors the growth of firms, he also suggested that there was a countervailing force the increased costs of managing complexity that would ultimately slow and finally limit growth. In other words, in any given environment there was an optimal, maximum size of the firm.
The global financial crisis of 2008 violently exposed these "complexity" costs and, TBTF aside, highlighted that perhaps we were close to, if not past, the Coase optima for the largest banks. Applying "Industrial Age" management structures and theories, even when amplified by the deployment of early "Information Age" technologies, is no longer sufficient to overcome exponential increases in complexity that naturally emerges both within the firm and in the system. Further, as transaction and information costs continue to decline exponentially, the relative advantage of the firm (versus the marketplace) in Coase's framework declines almost to zero.
I believe that these two forces increased complexity costs and decreased transaction cost advantages will inevitably lead to a fundamental redefinition of the "optimal" corporate structure and size in banking. They will favor banks that disassemble their vertically integrated model into more flexible, adaptable and resilient networks of businesses and operations some enjoying and focused on harvesting ever larger economies of scale and others more nimble and profiting from their ability to adapt to market conditions and customer expectations at speed.
Ronald Coase gave us some wonderful tools to understand the world in which we live. He will be missed. But his work lives on. For anyone in a position of leadership in banking and finance, his "Nature of the Firm" should be required reading. And in the Information Age, it's just a click away.
Sean Park is the founder of Anthemis Group, an investment and advisory firm focused on reinventing financial services for the information age.

A coup attempt has been launched in Burundi to try to overthrow President Pierre Nkurunziza, amid unrest over his bid to be re-elected to a third term, BBC reports. Thousands of people in the capital, Bujumbura, celebrated the announcement by Major General Godefroid Niyombare. But the coup outcome is far from clear. The presidency says the coup has been foiled and the perpetrators will be brought to justice. Mr Nkurunziza has now left a summit in Tanzania and is reportedly trying to return to Burundi.
Gen Niyombare said in a radio address he had ordered "the closure of the airport and border, and I ask every citizen and law enforcement down to the airport to protect it". Mr Nkurunziza had been meeting other East African leaders to discuss the crisis. Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete said the summit condemned the coup. A statement from the Burundi presidency said: "It is with regret that we have learned that a group from the armed forces mutinied this morning and declared an imaginary coup.
"This coup attempt has been foiled and that these people, who read the coup announcement on the radio, are being hunted by defence and security forces so that they can be brought to justice." A presidential spokesman said Mr Nkurunziza would address the nation on his return and was not afraid. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged all parties to exercise restraint.
Prison raid
The BBC's Maud Jullien in Bujumbura says thousands of protesters marched to the city centre alongside soldiers and two tanks after the coup was announced. Police shot at the soldiers and the crowd. At least two protesters were killed. The protesters continued to march, one telling the BBC this was a victory after weeks of protests. They reached the offices of the state broadcaster which was still in the control of soldiers loyal to the president.
Some reports say the loyalists and those supporting the coup are now in negotiations but this was denied by the presidency. BBC reporters in the capital say that protesters have broken into the national jail and have released detained demonstrators, before burning down the building. All international flights into and out of Bujumbura are currently cancelled.
Electoral process
Announcing the coup in a statement read to reporters in a military base, Gen Niyombare said he did not recognise the leadership because the president's bid for a third term violated the constitution. In a radio broadcast on a private station, Gen Niyombare said: "The masses have decided to take into their own hands the destiny of the nation to remedy this unconstitutional environment into which Burundi has been plunged.
The masses vigorously and tenaciously reject President Nkurunziza's third-term mandate… President Pierre Nkurunziza has been relieved of his duties. The government is overthrown." He said the mission of the salvation committee was the "restoration of national unity… and the resumption of the electoral process in a peaceful and fair environment". The unrest began on 26 April and has led to the deaths of more than 20 people. Tens of thousands of Burundians have fled to neighbouring states in recent weeks.
President Nkurunziza has rejected calls to postpone next month's election. However, the summit in Tanzania urged him to do so. The 51-year-old former rebel leader argues that he is entitled to run for a third term because he was first appointed to the role by parliament in 2005. The constitution states a president should govern only for two terms, but earlier this month a court upheld Mr Nkurunziza's interpretation.
Coup bid leader: Gen Godefroid Niyombare, 46
- Former rebel CNDD-FDD commander and ally of President Nkurunziza
- First ethnic Hutu army chief – a significant step in reconciliation efforts
- A negotiator in peace talks with last rebel group FNL
- Oversaw Burundi's deployment to Somalia as part of African force
- Served as ambassador to Kenya
- Dismissed as intelligence chief in February three months after his appointment
- Dismissal came days after he recommended against the third-term bid

Finding the Best Renters for Your Property
Finding the best tenants can become a major challenge for anyone. We understand how hard it is to find tenants, and keep the good ones! Tenant challenges helped us create a comprehensive tenant screening process that allows us to identify the best tenants. Our job is to weed out any potential red flags that could translate to trouble with tenants down the road. We understand that the only way for your property to make money is to keep tenants inside. We have created our process to find tenants that not only pay on time, but ones that will respect your property as if it were their own. Choose Keyrenter Austin for your property management needs and let us help you find the right renters for you!
We Start with Informative Marketing Efforts
How do we bring the best tenants to your property? We begin by using an aggressive marketing program that helps us identify local renters looking for places to rent in Austin and surrounding areas. We then advertise the vacancies online in local classifieds and other areas where potential renters commonly search for vacancies. Once we have an individual contact our office about the property, we place them into our screening process and schedule an apartment showing along with answering any questions they may have about the property. Our real estate listings and process are designed to help a potential renter fall in love with the property and have all the information they need before calling our office. Informative marketing helps to weed out the good renters from the ones that may not be best suited for your property.
Our Careful Screening Process
Keyrenter Austin understands that the only way your property will make money is by keeping the property filled. We focus on placing the best tenants in your property. Our careful screening process is designed to look over all the information submitted by would-be renters and review and verify every detail. From credit history to criminal background checks and employment verification, we make sure the tenants we bring to your property are going to be trustworthy individuals that pay on time and abide by your property rules. Our program is the easiest way to find the right tenants and make sure you're protected.
Lease Signings? We're Here to Help
Do you struggle to keep good tenants? Do you have a solid lease agreement that clearly lays out the expectations to your renters? Keyrenter Austin has a foolproof lease agreement that will prevent a number of problems. We collect the security deposit and will perform a move-in inspection and make notes of any issues or problems we feel could arise with the property. We can assist your new tenant with any questions they have, and we are here to help them understand how to care for their property and remain in good standing as a tenant. We have a low eviction rate as we have chosen the best renters for our client's needs!
Jonathan has been very easy to work with. He's quick to respond and accommodating as we made the transition to a new home. I'd definitely recommend him!
Kristen S., Satisfied Client
Since the beginning it has been a pleasure working with Jonathan. He has always been very quick to respond to emails which is essential when it comes to property management.
Tyler M., Satisfied Client
Keyrenter was great to work with. I was hesitant to get a property manager at first, but after reading the wonderful reviews on Yelp for keyrenter specifically, I decided to go for it. Jonathan had helped me secure two tenants within a few months. Everything is very transparent and he has always been quick to emails and inquiries I've had
Charles L., Satisfied Client
Just hired Jonathan and Keyrenter to manage my home. This was a transitioning period for me, leaving my old property manager and working with him, and he made it seem so easy! He genuinely cares about your home and concerns. Found me a renter and dealt with the former property manager with ease. Couldn't be happier, looking forward to working with his company for months to come!

This morning, the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSEARCA:GLD), and the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSEARCA:GDX) are both rallying higher after a disappointing job report. The U.S. Dollar Index futures (DX Z3) are also weaker today trading lower by 0.40 cents to $79.34 per contract. Usually, a weaker U.S. Dollar will help to lift gold and the gold related markets.
Traders should expect the GLD to trade into the $133.00 level on the daily chart. There is a lot of resistance around this area for the GLD as it was a failed breakout in August. The former buyers at that level will most likely be sellers again.
The GDX will have near term daily chart resistance around the $27.75 level. This level was also a failed breakout point from September 18, 2013. So traders should expect the GDX to stall out around this area. After these levels are reached it will be all about the patterns on the charts to see gold's next move.

I love the story behind the stockings--my second daughter, 16, is asking for stockings this year--I have NEVER done them- am I a bad mom or what?
(It's because we never did Santa.)
I think I will quick-sew some from some matelasse I have leftover from sewing my slipcovers...

DC from a Distance – Washington DC, USA
My first memorable visit to our nation's capital – commonly known as Washington, DC, "the District," or just "DC" – was some years ago with my mother. Mom and I stopped by on a road trip to Delaware, where my sister was going to college. At that time, my high school years were far ahead of me. But as we walked on the National Mall on a cloudless day, past a group of students reading at the base of the Washington Monument, I knew I wanted to live here.
I was fooled by the mirage.
Twelve years later, I've yet to read as much as a newspaper near the Washington Monument – too many tourists. I am proud to say that I have been to the top of the obelisk, once, when I sneaked in line with a tour group several springs before September 11.
Truth be told, my friends and I rarely visit the Washington that the rest of the world knows. We spend our weekends hiking around Rock Creek Park, sipping coffee in Dupont Circle, shopping in Georgetown, or drinking our cares away at bars in Adams-Morgan, on U Street, or on the "Hill." To me, Capitol Hill is not where a bill becomes a law, but where I can find one of the best jukeboxes in the city (Capitol Lounge), not to mention the best farmer's market (Eastern Market).
Living in DC certainly has some advantages. For instance, admission to any of the Smithsonian Museums is free. You can still smoke in bars (though I don't). And, tickets to non-Redskins-related sporting events are easy to get, as fans here are lukewarm and the teams have no heart.
The presidential motorcade is a very common sight and sound in Washington. The excited wail of sirens and amplified honking always precede the flash of black, tinted-window sedans. Three or four of these cars travel in a row in order to fool you, but it's okay to give the finger to all of them when they prevent you from making that light.
Traffic jams are notorious in DC, but it's hard to feel sorry for the suckers who are stuck on Connecticut Avenue or on the 14th Street Bridge when you're listening to the rush hour report on your way to the Metro. Neither as gritty nor as glamorized as New York City's subway system, the Metro is as bland as a Hill staffer's khakis and loafers, but it can usually get you where you want to go. And it doesn't hurt that the stations are air-conditioned – a must for the sweltering heat of DC summers.
The approximately 600,000 residents of the District of Columbia come from all over the country and the world, making this one of the most diverse small cities anywhere, especially when it comes to food. We have excellent Thai, Ethiopian, Pakistani, Lebanese, and French eateries. But, you can forget about getting a nice, cheap slice of pizza here. New Yorkers tell me that DC water is too hard to make good dough. I'd go down to Little Italy if I could, but it was bulldozed some years ago to make way for I-395. All that remains of that neighborhood are a wonderful, retro, red-sauce dive called "AV" and the handsome Holy Rosary Church. A bureau of the FBI is across from the latter.
Indeed, Philly has its cheese steak. Chicago, its dogs. But, if I were to ask you what DC's contribution to the nation's gullet is, you'd probably stare at me blankly. Senate Bean Soup is often cited as DC's "hometown" food, but I know of nowhere in the city – other than in the Senate cafeteria – where the stuff is on the menu.
Foreign languages can be heard almost everywhere you go in DC, from the local dry cleaner to the cab, at the bar and in line for the ATM. When the weather is warm enough for a jog, it's fun to pass down the side streets near Massachusetts Avenue and guess which nation's embassy lies behind which flag. Some of the smallest, most down-on-their-luck countries, such as Albania or Papua New Guinea, occupy some of the most prime real estate in the city. I often wonder if some countries' buildings are worth more than their GDP.
The embassy game can also be played using diplomatic license plates, which are marked by a "D" and then a random alphabetic code. For instance, "FY" is the country code for South Africa. Of course, this is a fun game as long as you are not looking for parking near Embassy Row.
Approximately 85% of DC's population works for the U.S. Government, an NGO, a nonprofit, or a lobbying agency. Many of my friends enjoy seemingly powerful jobs working for the senators of Massachusetts, California, or Missouri. Some have helped write the speeches that are delivered in prime time or on the Sunday morning talk shows. I even have a friend who once worked at the White House replying to children who had written to the president's pet. I kid you not – he used a paw print rubber stamp all day. But, ironically, those friends of mine who live within the DC city limits, who champion the cause of democracy each day, have no vote in Congress.
At 10%, DC has the highest tax rate in the nation, but somehow, our votes count for nothing. My friends who have relocated here from Boston are particularly perturbed by our "taxation without representation" status. On the one hand, we have free museums, good public transport, and the right to flash a juvenile gesture or two at the Commander-in-Chief's convoy. On the other, our residents have the same voting privileges as citizens of Puerto Rico or Guam – none. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if we also had perpetual sunshine, island breezes, and sugary beaches. I'd complain, if only I had a representative to call.
Besides a lack of voting rights, there is plenty wrong with Washington: potholes; a rat problem; an ineffective mayor/city council; under-performing schools; crime; a lack of fashion sense; an inane taxi fare system; steep rents; highly oppressive security; hoards of tourists; and never-ending construction.
So why live here? Or, more importantly, why visit?
Recently I returned from a trip south to visit my family, arriving by air to National Airport. As we began our approach below the clouds, the White House, the Washington Monument, the Capitol Building, the mercurial Potomac River – that old mirage – came into view. At ground level, Washington may be quite maddening. But, from a distance, it shines like few other capitals can.

Does the world need more chromite?
The mineral sands industry is an important component to both local and national economies. Reliable supplies of mineral sands play a critical role in meeting the economic and national security needs of the U.S. The U.S. currently has no domestic chromite production.
Will having a local supply of chromite benefit Pacific Northwest foundry's?
Yes. Currently U.S. foundries are facing strong competition from overseas foundries. ORC will offer a quality product at a competitive price due to lower transportation costs.
Is this a large mining operation?
No. Compared to major world mineral sands deposits, the known deposits in southwestern Oregon are relatively small. However, the suite of minerals of chromite, garnet and zircon are significant and unique in their high concentration. For example, other mineral sands mined in the U.S. (Florida, Georgia and Virginia) average 3 to 10 percent minerals. The mineral sands found in southwestern Oregon contain 30 to 60 percent mineral saturation. This allows the Company to impact a smaller area, construct a smaller plant and still remain economically viable.
Who regulates your industry?
Our operations will be closely regulated by County, State and Federal agencies, including the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF), Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL), United States Army Corps of Engineers, Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) and the Mining Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). This list is not intended to be exhaustive, but to provide a broad overview of the extensive regulations governing ORC.
Are any of the minerals harmful?
No. These minerals are naturally occurring and have been present for hundreds of thousands of years without ill effect to the environment or the community.
What is the difference between Chromite and Chromium?
Chromite is a naturally occurring brown to black colored mineral of the spinel group (Fe, Mg)(Cr,Al)2O4. It occurs in octahedral crystals as an accessory mineral in basic and ultrabasic igneous rock (such as those in the Klamath Mountains). Because chromite is resistant to chemical and mechanical weathering, it will find its way into concentrations in stream channels and ocean beaches, where wave actions segregate minerals according to density.
Chromium is a naturally occurring element that helps comprise the mineral chromite (Fe, Mg)(Cr,Al)2O4. Chromium is used in the hardening of steel alloys and in the production of stainless steels. It is also used in decorative plating and as a pigment in glass.
How will ORC have a positive impact on the local economy?
The Company is committed to strengthening economic growth and employment in Coos County. Examples are:
- $3.5M in annual payroll.
- $4M in annual expenses in goods and services.
- $75M in capital expenditures.
- 130,000 tons of product shipped annually by water, rail and truck.
- Utilization of the natural gas line.
- Construction contracts for the plant and plant site.
- Property and business taxes.
- Partnerships with Southwestern Oregon Community College.
- Support of local non-profits.
Will you hire from the local communities?
There will be employment opportunities for both technical and non-technical personnel. Many of the skills required are similar to those required by the forestry industry and we believe that the local citizen has transferable skills for many of the positions that will be available.
Please outline your trucking route from the mine site.
Click here to view map of the trucking route.
The mine sites are located adjacent to West Beaver Hill Road. Accessing the mine sites will be by logging roads that intersect West Beaver Hill Road. Our trucks will travel on West Beaver Hill Road to US 101 to our processing plant in Coos Bay. The processing plant is located off Mullen Road in the Bunker Hill area of Coos Bay.
At this time, we anticipate approximately 86 round trips per 24 hour day, 340 days per year.
The safety of all Coos County residents and visitors alike is of top priority to ORC. The company intends to partner with a trucking company that will develop (with ORC) a "Good Neighbor Policy." More information will be posted as it becomes available.
Will ORC's mining contaminate or disturb local water supplies?
Extensive research on the part of ORC has shown that our mining will not have any ill effect on local water tables. There are three main reasons:
1.ORC's operation does not require accessing groundwater via wells or other methods and thus will not reduce water supply to the community.
2.Our extensive exploratory drilling on the sites revealed no saturation zones that would identify regionally important groundwater aquifers.
3.The mine sites are separated from existing wells by deeply incised drainages. These drainages result in hydrologic isolation of groundwater aquifers located on opposite sides of the drainage, in effect, isolating the mine sites from any existing water wells.
Does the processing plant use any environmentally harmful chemicals?
No. One chemical used will be flocculants to settle out solids from processing water in the plant so it can be recycled into the system. The flocculants used are the same used by municipalities to provide potable water to communities.
Will there be any drill and blast methods used to mine the sites?
No. Excavation of the sites will consist of track mounted excavators and rubber tired loaders.
What are the Company's dust suppression, fire suppresion and gorse control plans?

What is ORC's Reclamation Plan?
Restoration of the mine sites is designed to be part of the on-going operation. The non-mineralized sands will be returned to the site and along with overlying terrace sands will be continuously moved to backfill excavated areas. The site will be contoured to a natural setting before reforestation. Sites can be reclaimed to timber lands, cranberry bogs, grazing lands, wet lands, or housing blocks, depending on zoning and practical desired use.

London: Web addresses are likely to run out as soon as November and to raise public awareness Google and Facebook have decided to switch their websites to a new system for one day in June.
On June 8, a whole bunch of web giants, including Google, Facebook, Yahoo, will turn on a new way of running web addresses, reports the Telegraph.
The system, called IPv6, has been designed to stop the world running out of the web addresses that underlie the locating of websites and devices.
As of now, only 0.2 percent of web users have access to the new protocol, however. ``World IPv6`` Day is designed to encourage its adoption.
Vint Cerf, one of the web`s founding fathers, is leading a global campaign to encourage web service providers and IT managers to switch from the current system, IPv4, to IPv6.
The new standard offers many trillions of new web addresses, but cannot be accessed from modems and routers that only use IPv4.
It is likely, however, that most of the changes needed will take place without consumers losing access to any part of the web because they will be part of the standard software and hardware upgrade cycle.
The availability of new web addresses will, it is hoped, allow more connected devices, such as tablet computers, as well as permitting more mundane devices to gain web addresses.
Writing on the Google Blog, Network Engineer Lorenzo Colitti said, "Google has been supporting IPv6 since early 2008, when we first began offering search over IPv6. Since then we`ve brought IPv6 support to YouTube and have been helping ISPs enable Google over IPv6 by default for their users. On World IPv6 Day, we`ll be taking the next big step. Together with major web companies such as Facebook and Yahoo!, we will enable IPv6 on our main websites for 24 hours."
He added, however that "Our current measurements suggest that the vast majority of users will be unaffected. However, in rare cases, users may experience connectivity problems, often due to misconfigured or misbehaving home network devices."

Periods are normal, but periods that stop you doing stuff are not normal.
The good news is, you've come to the right place to work out what to do next. There are a few reasons why you may experience pelvic pain, but one of the most common reasons is period pain. Bad period pain could mean endometriosis but read a bit more below to find out about it.
Endometriosis is a very common condition that affects 1-in-10 girls and women around the world, and 600,000 Australians.
It can be tricky knowing what to do next if this sounds like you but there is lots of information on this website. Perhaps the best thing to do is read this FREE pelvic pain booklet. You can even save it to your phone or tablet and read it in private.
But what is endometriosis?! And what are the symptoms?
Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is found in places outside the uterus where it shouldn't be. It can affect girls and women from the onset of puberty, meaning you may experience symptoms as a teenager.
You can read more about endometriosis here.
Extra help
There are lots of places you can get further information and support, including on this website. The best thing to do is talk to someone you can trust about your symptoms. A GP or health nurse can be a really good place to start. Plus, a GP can help you get these symptoms under control.
There are lots of GP's out there who will help, you just have to find the right one.
We also have a book called "Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain" which you can buy here [insert link]. You can get it in both hard cover or digital format which you can save to your devices. Check with your school library and health nurse first though, as they may already have a copy you can borrow.
Your health nurse may also have one of our cute period trackers, which can also be really helpful if you want to keep a track of your symptoms or things that worry you.
Plus, give us a like on Facebook [insert link] to keep up to date, and subscribe to our newsletter [insert sign-up form link].
These FAQ's have been borrowed from our New Zealand partner: Endometriosis New Zealand. They have some more great FAQ's which you may like – just click here to see them.
Can teenagers get endometriosis?
The answer is ABSOLUTELY YES. It's really common for symptoms to start in the teen years, sometimes from the very first period. This is particularly so if there's a family history of endometriosis or menstrual pain and troublesome symptoms. It's really important not to delay seeking help as early intervention is vital to improve quality of life, relieve suffering and avoid the possibility of fertility being compromised down the track.
Paracetamol is not helping my pain. What else can I take to help give me some relief?
Paracetamol belongs to a group of medicines called simple analgesics and helps alleviate mild-moderate pain. Taking an anti-inflammatory either in combination or instead of is sometimes recommended. Codeine is a stronger pain reliever and blocks pain signals from nerves in your body. It can be used alone or in combination with Paracetamol and anti-inflammatories. ALWAYS seek professional advice
I have been told that if I go on to the 'pill' it can help relieve some of my endometriosis symptoms. How can a pill used as a contraceptive do this?
The contraceptive pill is often used as a first line treatment to regulate periods and reduce symptoms. There are many different types of 'pills' and some are much better suited to help with period pain and endometriosis. Taking the pill continuously decreases the number of periods per year however it can also mask symptoms and the progression of endometriosis. For this reason, recent thoughts are that prescribing pills 'back to back' may not be wise if there is no diagnosis. The pill is not suitable for everyone for many reasons (age, cultural, health, choice etc).
One Teen's Story of Pelvic Pain
My name is Georgia, I'm 14 years old and I suffer with endometriosis. It started with just cramps everyday, back pain, nausea, heavy periods, headaches and dizziness. It started getting a lot worse, so we went to doctors, and a gynaecologist. This went on for about a year, in and out of hospitals, and the pain kept getting me more depressed everyday because I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere with getting a diagnosis. I started to think all this pain was in my head.
My anxiety was getting worse because I stayed in my room pretty much all day. I missed so much of my last year of Primary School and didn't want to go anywhere. I didn't see my friends much either.
A doctor then referred me to a new gynaecologist – one who understood about pelvic pain. When I walked out of my first appointment with her, it was like a breath of fresh air, even for my mum. We finally got a plan in place and I had my first laparoscopy, I got a mirena in as well. I was really glad that I had a diagnosis, because living with chronic pain everyday and not being diagnosed really gets you down. People think 'she doesn't look sick. Why isn't she at school?'
At first that really go to me because I cared so much what people thought of me but now it doesn't even cross my mind, because I know that I'm in pain, it's just invisible. Because of this experience, I feel like I've matured a lot, I am finally getting my anxiety handled and I feel like I am getting my life back on track and that is all thanks to my doctor and my mum.
I just hope that other teenagers out there that have symptoms like mine get some help because it really does get you down and there is help and support. Don't live a life in pain, being a teenager is hard enough!
These drawings show me and my pain. The first one is me as I was, tied up by my pain and anxiety. The second one is me now. I still have some pain, but when it's only this big, I can handle it.

Last month, the adventurous London dance-pop trio Saint Etienne returned with "Tonight," their first new single in a very long time. And now they've made a video for the track, which is mostly about how fun it is to go out at night in London. They would know! The band themselves mostly serve as a backdrop; this one's for the kids. Watch it below.
Saint Etienne are planning to release their first new album since 2005 later this year.

MATTHEWS: Rudy Giuliani got the biggest giggle out of that. And then, of course, Sarah, Sarah Palin did. They're giggling over the community organizer role as if it's, has, it carries more freight than just a job you once had. Is this the new "welfare queen?" Is this a new symbol, that we're talking about here?...Do you it has an ethnic piece, an urban piece even?
CHRIS MATTHEWS: You believe he was referring to Sarah Palin?
JOHN FEEHRY, REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST: Well I think, I don't know
JENNY BACKUS: I, I just don't-
MATTHEWS: No, just a minute let's get, because if it's not. Just a minute, okay. [To Backus] I'm doing your job for a second here, just then you can take over. I'm just trying to get straight what we're talking about here because if John McCain isn't accusing his rival of calling his running mate a pig, then we shouldn't be talking about this. If he didn't, if he didn't call her but we're seeing a commercial that says, "Barack Obama on Sarah Palin," put out with the money of John McCain's campaign. So he's not endorsing his campaign ad. Yes or no? Is he endorsing that message or not?
FEEHRY: I have no idea I mean.
MATTHEWS: Well he is, we just saw it. He paid for it.
FEEHRY: Well, paid for it, listen.
MATTHEWS: Okay well then John McCain is saying that his opponent, Barack Obama, has called, in fact, his running mate a pig!
FEEHRY: No I think, I think that what-
The church where Sarah Palin grew up and was baptized preaches some of the most extreme religious views in the nation.
Walton argues that black theology is not as radical as it has been made out to be and that Martin Luther King Jr. was actually more controversial than Wright.
When Palin worships in Juneau, she attends an Assembly of God church there. Sarah Palin may not call herself a Pentecostal, but she has deep and long experience in Pentecostal churches. And as the race wears on, this biographical fact will likely become another religious Rorschach test--pleasing to some, discomfiting to others.

Kidney function robustly declines with age in humans and many animals. Dr. Kasinath's research investigates the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying structural and functional changes in the kidney with age. A second interest of the laboratory is determining how aging interacts with diseases such as diabetes -- the number one cause of kidney failure in the United States -- to accelerate the deterioration of kidney function. The laboratory employs both in vitro and in vivo models in its research.

Dr Clare Gerada, who takes over at the College today, said GPs are likely to face questions over their level of pay from patients infuriated by the Government's reforms.
Doctors could also be held responsible by patients who have been denied access to life-extending drugs or surgery, because they are to be given control of £80 billion a year of health care spending.
Under the Government shake-up, a number of NHS bodies will be axed, hospitals will be forced into increased competition with each other and GPs will commission hospital services.
Dr Gerada attacked the move to give doctors power over managing access to treatment – formerly held by the National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) and primary care trusts – from 2013.
She told The Guardian: "At worst, the negative impact for GPs could be patients lobbying outside their front door saying, 'You've got a nice BMW car but you will not allow me to have this cytotoxic drug that will give me three more months of life'."
Giving doctors the responsibility of rationing NHS treatment could sever the bonds between doctors and patients, compromise the "sacredness of the consultation" and encourage customers to visit several different doctors looking for who will offer them the most treatment, she added.
There is also the risk that patients could wrongly think doctors are lining their own pockets by denying expensive care to patients, she added.
Describing the impact of the reforms as "the end of the NHS as we know it", Dr Gerada said private health care companies would become more prominent.
Her remarks represent the most in-depth attack yet by a senior medical figure on the government's proposals.
John Healey, shadow health secretary, said: "These criticisms from an influential GP again reveal how Andrew Lansley is failing to listen to the warnings of doctors, nurses and health experts to slow down on his high-cost, high-risk plans."
A spokeswoman for the Department of Health said: "Our reforms will indeed mark a new era for the NHS – one where patients and clinicians are at the heart of the service.
"Our reforms aren't an option, they are a necessity in order to sustain and improve our NHS."

Home Inspection Basics
Share on
Home buyers are constantly told that they need to get a home inspection before they make the big purchase.? But why the concern, what can a home inspection tell you that you don't already know or that the home seller hasn't told you?
Home inspectors have a checklist of items they'll be checking for. It's a good idea to follow them on their walk through. If possible see if they have an additional checklist for you to make notes on.? Expect to examine the structural elements, the exterior, the roof and attic, plumbing, electrical, systems and components, appliances, and the garage.
If you're concerned about a specific issue such as asbestos, mold, radon, insects and rodents and lead you'll need to find an inspector who is licensed in these areas. General home inspectors are not required to check for these hazards.
Your final home inspection will not have a condition list for every item inspected, just the segments that appear to in poor condition or in need of repair. Your home inspector in most cases will not give you estimates on the repairs, this is a task you'll have to research yourself.
Each state has different rules regarding home inspectors and the inspection and there are several professional organizations to which home inspectors can belong. Look for referrals from other home owners and realtors as well as professional accreditation.

Team Hawkes welcome their stable star Chautauqua back to the races under the lights at Moonee Valley on Friday night with the champion sprinter one of 11 nominations taken for the Moir Stakes.
Rounding out elite level racing for the month, this season's $500,000 Group 1 City Jeep Moir Stakes (1000m) is shaping up as a star-studded edition of the weight-for-age sprint.
Last seen winning the Group 1 Chairman's Sprint (1200m) at Sha Tin in Hong Kong, Encosta De Lago six-year-old Chautauqua is one of the big name short-distance specialists in the mix.
He is a five-time Group 1 winner after the successful international raid in May, which followed his historical title defence in Sydney's Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes (1200m) during 'The Championships'.
Chautauqua has already amassed over $6.5 million in career prize money that he'll be out to add to on Friday evening at a track he is yet to taste defeat at.
From two runs at the tight Moonee Valley circuit the horse boasts two wins including the Group 1 Manikato Stakes (1200m) last Cox Plate eve, a race he will run second-up in this spring before heading to Flemington for the $1 million Group 1 Darley Classic (1200m) on November 5.
He is also undefeated over 1000m and is five-from-six first-up ahead of his weekend return, which owner Rupert Legh cannot wait for.
"John Hawkes always said that the spring of 2016 and the autumn beyond it would be when we see him at his peak, and the horse really does seem to have reached peak maturity," Legh told The Herald Sun.
"John says the horse has never been better."
Last year's Moir Stakes was won by the Robert Heathcote-trained Buffering who also stole the prize in 2014 and in 2012 when the race only held Group 2 status, and is back for a shot at a record fourth win on Friday night.
A veteran son of Mossman, Buffering is out to join Bomber Bill (2004) as the nine-year-old Moir Stakes winners in the past three decades.
Another star fresh performer with nine wins, a second and a third from his 12 first-up runs to date, the galloper meets his last start conqueror having run dead last when 14th to Chautauqua overseas.
That was an uncharacteristic run from the seven-time Group 1 winner who has an outstanding record at the Valley of five wins, a second and a third from 11 starts.
Runner-up to Buffering in the Moir Stakes last Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, the Joe Pride-trained Ball Of Muscle is back for another crack 12 months on.
The Dubawi six-year-old is second-up for the season on the back of a close first-up second to Takedown at Randwick in the Group 2 The Shorts (1100m).
He was only a half-length off 'The Buff' in the Moir Stakes quinella last year, and his Sydney-based trainer Pride is thrilled with the horse's condition ahead of the rematch this weekend.
"He's going super, I wanted him nice and fit for this race and he's coming off a career best first-up run," Pride said.
"And he always improves once he gets into this prep so I'm happy with him."
The other stand-out Moir Stakes nominees include Mick Price's Blue Diamond Stakes winner Extreme Choice chasing the first win by a three-year-old in the race since the filly Virage De Fortune (2005) and Mark Kavanagh's in-form McEwen Stakes winning mare Wild Rain.
The 2016 A.J. Moir Stakes final acceptances close at 9:00am (AEST) on Wednesday morning.

The red meat industry is working overtime to retain its hold in the marketplace against other protein sources, namely chicken, fish and seafood. So hot is the battle that the beef people have been forced to 1.) admit the existence of light meat competition and 2.) realize consumers no longer are clamoring for high fat, high cholesterol products.
The Beef Industry Council thus has produced the Meat Case Calculator, a slide-rule-type device to compare different cuts of beef, pork, chicken and seafood in regard to calories, protein, fat, cholesterol, saturated fat, iron, zinc and sodium. For instance, 3 ounces of broiled sirloin has 177 calories, 26 grams of protein, 7.4 grams of fat and 76 milligrams of cholesterol while 3 ounces of fried chicken with skin has 246 calories, 19 grams of protein, 14.8 grams of fat and 74 milligrams of cholesterol.
