That's so lovely! I really like the way you created continuity with the different papers by embossing them! And it's great to see the pretty background because I just bought that embossing folder yesterday. Do you really need a sentiment? I think it's perfect just the way it is, and right now it works for any occasion.ReplyDelete
Thanks, JoAnn, for your recommendation!ReplyDelete
Hi Seongsook! Beautiful card! I agree with JoAnn completely, especially since I love irises so much. I think your card looks lovely just as it is.ReplyDelete

Major News and Events of 17 July 2013
What Happened on 17 July 2013
Pirates hijack ship off the coast of West Africa, 20 Indian crew members
Supreme Court warns CBI about sharing information related to Coalgate with the government
Revenue target to be achieved in 2013-14: Chidambaram
Delhi Police try to link spot fixing to Dawood Ibrahim
Statue of Rajesh Khanna to be unveiled
GSM operators get 3.57 million subscribers in June
Today two more children died taking the toll of deaths due to consumption of mid-day meal in Bihar to 22. The incident had happened in Saran district at a distance of 60 km from Patna. 25 children are being treated at Patna Medical College and Hospital. There were violent protests in Chhapra where people put on fire the buses and destructed public property. Opposition party, BJP had called for a shutdown. The CM Nitish Kumar announced Rs 2 lakh as a compensation to the family of the children who died which invited strong remarks from the Opposition who stated the CM was being insensitive to the issue. Earlier too many incidents have occurred in Bihar which point out to glaring negligence in the mid-day meals. In the food frogs, insects, rat and even dead frog were found.
Pirates are believed to hijack a chemical tanker belonging to Turkey which had on board 20 Indian crew members off the Port-Gentil coast, Gabon in West Africa. The tanker MV Cotton may have been hijacked on Sunday as the owners lost the link with it on that day. It is said that the region is infested by the pirates. It is still not known whether there has been a demand for ransom.
The apex court has strictly warned the CBI to indulge in any sharing of information regarding its findings of irregularities in coal block allocation with the government. The court stated that if they faced any stumbling block they can come to the court rather than divulging details to the government. It also specified that the organization's credibility was at stake and it should be careful in maintaining its image. Some time back CBI had asked for permission to get in touch with the government over some issues like questioning a government officer. In May 2013 the Supreme Court had named the CBI a caged parrot. CBI had stated that with the anomalies the private players were to benefit.
The Finance minister has stated that the government will reach the budgeted revenue target for the current fiscal. He said in 2012-13, 21% increase was achieved compared to the previous financial year. He was confident that the economy will show growth of more than 5% and if it hovers around 6% then 19% revenue collection will be achieved. There are plans to collect direct taxes worth Rs.13,300 crore and Rs.4,700 crore as indirect taxes this year. Also the 12 lakh service tax assessees who discontinued filing returns will be looked into. The government's target is to collect Rs.1.8 lakh crore through service tax this financial year.
Delhi police has got hold of phone intercepts which they state allegedly prove there was a nexus between underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and the bookies in the spot fixing scandal in the IPL The phone calls are allegedly between Dawood and Jawed Chotani who was the point of contact with the bookies here and Dawood. The Delhi Police is looking into an underworld connection in IPL spot fixing and is no way in favor of the seven people getting bail as there were lack of evidences to prove charges under MCOCA.On the other hand the Rajasthan Royals captain whose three players were booked under spot fixing charges, Rahul Dravid gave his statement to the Delhi Police.
Late Rajesh Khanna's statue will be unveiled in Mumbai on his 1st death anniversary. UTV Stars Channel stated that this would be done at the at Bandstand Promenade at Bandra. It was also stated that his charming smile and style would be commemorated in a brass statue which will be in one of his well-known poses. The statue will be life size. The actor's family will be asked to unveil the statue. The statue will be installed in the beginning of the next month and will be positioned along with other eminent Bollywood personalities like Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand and Yash Chopra.

The latest news is that I shipped my first shipment of fabric to the die cutter and will very soon be a sewing maniac to finally post all my latest designs. The fabrics are BEAUTIFUL! Thanks to all the talented fabric designers out there who make sewing such a joy! Here is a little preview...

[ suggestions snipped ] I have an even simpler suggestion - don't register the namespace prefixes in cocoon.properties, register the namespaces themselves. Then you can do processing runs over documents that look like this: <page> <xsp:page language="java" xmlns:xsp="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Core" xmlns:cookie="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Cookie" xmlns:sql="http://www.apache.org/2000/SQL" xmlns:cookie2="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Cookie" > ... </xsp:page> </page> But perhaps I misunderstand something? Anyway, your suggestion for specifying XSP taglibs via PIs is possibly good, but should be optional, IMHO. Much easier for the site admin to add them once in cocoon.properties. - donald

Conferences – a growth market
24,000 international
associations worldwide with regular conferences and 700 new
organisations founded each year: the conference industry is constantly growing, including in
Austria, where the number of events and conferences rose by 9.7
% in 2014 (source: mira).
According to the statistics published by the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA), a total of 173,000 events including 18,920 congresses have taken place in 6,700 host cities since records began in 1873. Europe is still the uncontested number one de stination for conferences, with Vienna, Paris, Madrid, Berlin and Barcelona leading the international popularity rankings for many years.
Increased investment driven by higher induced economic impact Thanks to the sheer volume of indirect economic impact, large - scale international conferences and meetings add significant value for national and local economies, which is why European cities are investing heavily in new and upgraded facilities. Barcelona, Berlin, Milan, Frankfurt and Istanbul are all due to o pen new conference centres soon, with Paris and Budapest set to follow suit with major new event venues. In total, over EUR 760 million has been set aside for these projects. London, Copenhagen and Glasgow are likewise investing in major new venues and exp anding capacity, and there are plans for similar projects in Lisbon, Prague, Amsterdam and Hamburg.
Austria Center Vienna: investing in the future With a capacity of 20,000, the Austria Center Vienna makes a major contribution to the attractiveness of the nation's capital as a conference destination (ranked second by ICCA in 2014 behind Paris) .
Susanne Baumann-Söllner and her team initiated a raft of major investments in 2014 to help the venue defend its top standing on the international circuit. To facilitate networking between participants, work began on the construction of a new Business Lounge with adjacent Viennese coffeehouse with the support of new caterer Motto Catering.
Following a Europe
- wide tendering process, new furniture was also proc ured for the venue, including thousands of new chairs and replacement banqueting and conference tables.
The winner of the 2014 German lighting designer of the year award was brought on board to come up with a new concept to create the ideal lighting in the main hall for conferences and stylish gala events. Spread throughout the main building and halls, a new digital screen system opens the door to new branding options and can be used for live streams and social media walls. Thanks to a 3D space planning to ol, prospective event organisers are now in a position to visualise the events beforehand, making event and conference planning even more straightforward
Stable year for conferences in 2014
In 2014 the Austria Center Vienna hosted 148 events for a to tal of 152,788 guests, 57,784 of whom came from abroad.
Total revenue for the year amounted to EUR 16,563 thousand , just short of the previou s year's total of EUR 16,578 thousand . Higher maintenance costs led to a loss after tax of EUR 7,345 thousand , up on the loss of EUR 6,859 thousand recorded in 2013. Total revenue from events, however, rose by EUR 0.29m or 3.5 percent.
"These investments send out a clear signal to the rest of the industry that our venue will continue to be an attractive location for years to come," explained Baumann-Söllner. The fact that the Austria Center Vienna is hosting nine large-scale conferences in 2015 clearly demonstrates that this strategy is bearing fruit. From 2016 - 2018 the venue expects to host 10 such events each year.
"In line with our slogan of 'Rooms to grow ideas', we offer our customers 24 halls and 180 meeting rooms to support a full range of meeting formats, inspirational digital networking opportunities and an extended portfolio of additional services. By working closely with our trusted partner enterprises we really do create room for big ideas to flourish. We will continue along this successful path, with various building upgrades and ongoing investment in furnishing and services planned for the future," she concluded.
Austria Center Vienna charts its course for the coming years

Dalene was a treat to share a conversation with and it's one that will surely inspire others to get out there and see the world.

I have a wedding coming up in my family and I am so excited. My son is getting married in July so I decided to give my future daughter-in-law a bridal shower at my home. As a young girl, Makenzie always had a dream to have a barn wedding, and in July her dream is going to come true. So when I was planning out the Bridal Shower I wanted to come up with the same kind of theme to go along with all the festivities ahead of us.

As reactions continue to greet the creation of Ministry of Happiness and Fulfillment by Governor Rochas Okorocha and the subsequent appointment of his sister, Mrs. Ogechi Ololo as the head, prominent indigenes of Imo State have come hard on the governor for his 'strange decision.'
Reacting to the development while speaking with newsmen in Abuja on Wednesday, the immediate past Governor of the State, Chief Ikedi Ohakim, described the creation as an "abomination."
His words, "This is a sort of abomination. How can this man continue to insult the sensibilities of Imo citizens? Whose happiness are they looking for when salaries and pensions are not paid? Are we looking for the happiness of the Okorocha family and friends?
"I have not heard about such a ministry anywhere in the world, before. It is not in Britain that gave us independence. It is not in the United States of America, whose democratic system we copied. It is not in Canada. It is nowhere in West Africa.
"I have searched through the internet and I am still searching to see where it was practised and couldn't find any. Honestly, this is a bizarre creation and I won't be surprised to see the Governor's aides struggling to defend this indefensible act.
"Deliverance is what Okorocha needs for his rescue mission. Someone somewhere is mentally challenged. We pray for help before more than one runs amok."
Also reacting, a former Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives, Chief Emeka Ihedioha, in a terse statement said he was completely tired of talking about Governor Okorocha.
"Honestly, I am completely tired of talking about this man and his style of administration. You can be sure that before we finish talking about the creation of Ministry of Happiness, he will come with a more bizarre thing", Ihedioha said.

Students completing the 2017-2018 FAFSA will need to provide 2015 tax information. Students completing the 2018-2019 FAFSA will need to provide 2016 federal income tax information. Please review the chart below if you are not sure which FAFSA you need to complete.
|Enrollment Period
|Required FAFSA
|Required Tax Information
|May 15, 2017 - May 12, 2018
|2015 Federal Income Tax Information
|May 14, 2018 - May 11, 2019
|2016 Federal Income Tax Information
It is highly recommended that the IRS Data Retrieval Tool (DRT) link on the 2018-2019 FAFSA be used, if possible, to provide the required tax information.
(PLEASE NOTE: The DRT is not available on the 2017-2018 FAFSA. More information regarding the Tax Return Transcript process for the 2017-2018 aid year is listed below.)
The DRT process electronically imports needed tax information directly from the IRS to the FAFSA. It is the fastest and most accurate way to input tax information into the FAFSA form.
If the DRT option is used successfully, submission of a tax transcript will not be needed if your FAFSA is chose for verification.
Log into fafsa.gov. Click "Start a New FAFSA" (or click "Make Corrections" if you have already submitted a FAFSA and need to correct the previously reported data).
Under the "Financial Information" tab, choose the IRS Data Retrieval Tool option or "Link to IRS." This will take you to an information page with the IRS.
Authorize the transfer of information from the IRS and click "Transfer Now" to transfer the tax information. You will then be directed back to the FAFSA page.
Additional security protections have been added for the 2018-2019 FAFSA to better protect your privacy.
Joint return filers will need to manually enter the appropriate income earned from work for each filer on the FAFSA. Filers with rollovers will be required to answer screening questions to determine how the rollover amount should be populated.
Once all required FAFSA information is completed, proceed to the "Sign and Submit" section of the FAFSA to submit the information to the federal processor.
If your 2018-2019 FAFSA is chosen for verification and a 2016 tax return transcript is required, you and/or your parent(s) may make corrections on the FAFSA and use the DRT to transfer the information to our office electronically.
If you and/or your parent(s) are not eligible (or choose not) to use the DRT, you will be required to secure a copy of the 2016 Tax Return Transcript(s) directly from the IRS for submission to the UTA Office of Financial Aid. Please include your UTA ID number on the transcript for identification purposes.
To request a free copy of the IRS Tax Return Transcript:
If your 2017-2018 FAFSA is chosen for verification and a 2015 Tax Return Transcript is required for you and/or your parent(s), you will need to secure a copy directly from the IRS for submission to the UTA Office of Financial Aid (the IRS DRT is not available on the 2017-2018 FAFSA). Please include your UTA ID number on the transcript for identification purposes.
To request your free copy of the IRS Tax Return Transcript:
If you and/or your parent(s) are unable to secure a copy of the 2015 Tax Return Transcript for the 2017-2018 FAFSA, a signed paper copy of the filed tax return may be substituted.
The U.S. Department of Education (DOE) announced that effective on April 24, 2017, financial aid offices may consider a signed paper copy of the 2015 IRS tax return that was used by the tax filer for submission to the IRS as acceptable documentation to verify 2017-2018 FAFSA tax return information (this option is not available for verifying the 2018-2019 FAFSA).

Got Somewhere to Be? Choose a Charter Bus Rental
If you're looking for an environmentally friendly, cost effective way to transport multiple people, you should look at charter bus rentals. For organizations who routinely take trips, such as schools, clubs, nursing homes, or businesses, charter bus rentals can provide easy travel, reliable transportation, and a way to keep everyone together, instead of splitting up into different cars. Setting up meeting points is easy — just head back to the bus at one time! And you won't have to worry about finding multiple parking places either. Whether you need to use a chart

Progress Unveils Bold New Creative Identity to Re-energize Its Brand
Progress Software has introduced a fresh new corporate brand identity, including an iconic new logo, emphasizing the spark of business ideas its software provides to customers and partners and its
more than 30-year heritage of innovation. The new corporate brand coincides with Progress' launch of a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) that enables powerful business applications to be easily created by anyone using a web browser.
Working with North Carolina brand strategy agency New Kind, Progress set out to establish a brand identity that is bold and recognizable but that is also true to the company's strong values. The idea was to create a modern look that would help position Progress alongside major players in the cloud markets like Amazon, Google, Salesforce.com and others. The new branding is based on the concept that every new business reality begins as an idea, a simple spark. The color orange, which has always been a core element of the Progress brand, is richer and deeper in the new identity and symbolizes
the energy and excitement of the company entering a new era. To develop this new brand identity, Progress engaged a passionate community of advocates both inside and outside the company, including employees, partners, and customers. Their collective ideas served as the inspiration for the final creative direction that was unveiled at Progress Exchange 2013, its annual worldwide conference for customers and partners last week in Boston.

text: Hello, my name is Monique and I am a wife and mother to 4 amazing children who range in age from 9 to 24. I have always enjoyed doing all kinds of crafts, anything from ( simple!) knitting to scrapbooking to cardmaking, but when I discovered quilting 16 years ago, it changed everything! I fell head over heels in love with the entire craft and have never looked back. I own many, many quilt books ( and continue to find more), and have way more fabric than is good for me. When I started this blog last year my goal was to not buy any new fabric in 2016. Even though I didn't quite make my goal, I was pretty proud of my self-restraint! In 2017 my goal is to make quilts and projects out of the many books I own, RATHER than buying yet another new book. It will be hard because I have already eyed some new books that are begging to come and live on my shelves, but hey, it can't possibly be as hard as NOT buying new fabric, can it?! I hope you will follow me in my journey!

"When you're able to target a segment based on their unique interests through integrated data, you can increase your sales and marketing success rates tenfold."
—Felix Serna, CEO at Empathy Logic
Failing to properly extract, cleanse, prepare, and move data from legacy solutions to current infrastructure can significantly compromise a system's key features. Companies that take the time and make the effort to invest in a next-generation data integration solution often find it reaps big rewards.
It's a challenge that Felix Serna, CEO at Empathy Logic, a customer data integration and marketing automation SaaS (software as a service) provider, tackles every day. "The fragmentation and the distributed nature of customer and prospect data is a major issue for sales and marketing leaders," says Serna.
Serna points to a recent client that was struggling to integrate marketing automation and ERP (enterprise resource planning) systems. In response, Empathy Logic helped the company roll out an integrated system that enabled the retailer to use automation to target customers and prospects on a weekly basis. After integrating two distinct data sources, the company was able to more effectively communicate highly relevant offers to customers, which rapidly increased repeat business from its existing customer base. This doubled the company's corporate web revenue in just two months.
"If you're able to generate empathy with your customers and prospects by knowing exactly what they told you about themselves previously, and where they are in the purchasing cycle, a marketing team can significantly increase its chances of retaining and growing that customer," says Serna.
Serna recommends three strategies to take full advantage of the information locked in your sales and marketing applications:

If you don't have the right CRM strategy in place, you're not just losing sales. You're losing the ability to plan and market effectively.

One of the hardest things for me as a writer is to hear critique on my writing. I know it's
important, I know it needs to be given and received, I know how invaluable it is to hear to good, the bad, and the ugly of what I've written. How else am I to learn and grow? I can only do so much in editing my own work; there comes a point where I need to let go, and let someone else take a look. And not just a peek, but an in-depth study.
Whew! Just writing that made my breathing kick up a few notches!
Can any of you writers out there relate to this? How many of you employ the services of an editor?
Let's take a look at some of the reasons why having an editor is so important.
We all have pet phrases.
When I wrote Violet's Daybreak, I created a heroine with debilitating shyness. Barely able to form a coherent sentence around strangers kind of shy. I've been there, and I wanted a character that could grow past it, as I (sometimes) have. But I over-used "blushed"…so much so that I'm sure my editor was pulling out hair during the reading of it. This was something that I hadn't noticed I did, and certainly didn't mean to do! And I'd never have caught it on my own. Instead, all my readers would be reading about an infuriating amount of blushing, flushing, flaming faces.
In working through it with my editor, I learned to think about more physical manifestations of shyness than just blushing: shortness of breath, trembling hands, inability to make eye contact, nervous fidgets, and I could go on! After making those changes, I saved the blushing for the really big stuff!
Sometimes, our brain sees what it wants to see.
Have you ever written something, even gone back through to self-edit it, and then left it for several weeks, months, or even years…only to return and find that it didn't say what you thought it did? I'm sure many writers have experienced this, myself included. What was I thinking? The problem is that, as we write, and have an idea in our heads, sometimes that idea becomes stronger than our vision. We know what we mean, and even if the words don't express that clearly, we still see what we mean. Example, you ask? Well, do I have one for you!
In my WIP (WIP stands for Work In Progress), a novel centering on a student of Dr. Martin Luther's in Wittenberg, 1517. About halfway through a paragraph describing the student writing frantically during one of Luther's lectures, I switch to the character thinking about the 95 Theses (Statements that Luther wanted to discuss in the theological/intellectual community of the time). While I want to include mention of it in the book, such an inorganic introduction will make it feel more like propaganda than a novel describing how the teaching of salvation by grace through faith touches and transforms the lives of those who hear it. I'm sure that at some point, I had an idea in my head of how to transition my character's thought process more gently, but I can't think of what it was now! In short, I don't know what I was thinking. I'm just glad I was able to pick that out later.
An editor's eyes are not our eyes.
If you are writing for yourself alone, you can ignore this post, as well as the need for an editor. However, if you want to write so that other people read your writing, remember that they do not have your eyes. They do not have your thoughts guiding their reading. This is where an editor can be really useful, because editors don't have your eyes, either!
When I've finished a first draft, and done what I can on my own to perfect my writing, I do two things. First, I send it to my editor. Second, I send it to test readers. The feedback I receive helps me perfect my writing further and gives me a view on how others read what I've written. Oh, you think that character doesn't seem very genuine? I can fix that! This scene doesn't have enough detail? I can fix that! The opening has too much description and not enough action? I can fix that, too!
What other reasons can you think of to work with an editor?
If you are interested in learning whether I would be a good editor to work with on your writing, please go and check out my page, Editing. Whether you decide to go with me or not, I hope you will consider this important aspect of the process. Happy writing!

Alden Biesen castle absolutely had the wow factor this weekend, full to the brim with amazing installations by designers from all across the world for Fleuramour 2016, Belgium's flower festival organised by the makers of Fleur Creatif magazine.
Even walking into the courtyard was awe-inpiring as you're immediately faced with a huge two-story structure suspended mobile-like from a metal ring in the centre of the square dripping with thousands of flowers arranged by Max Van de Sluis and Hanneke Frankema. Wow was a theme throughout the whole exhibition as magical hanging flowers, delicately balanced geometric structures and meticulously woven shapes were featured in spades thoughout the castle. Each installation was imaginative and different from the next. In some, entire rooms were filled with a single flower, like Frank Timmerman, Peter Boeijkens and Jan Aartsen's sunflower design, whilst others use all kinds of materials like Frédéric Dupré's standing mixed media installations.
It spanned over 4 floors, packed to the rafters with flowers of all shapes and sizes and in all kinds of designs. Taking inspiration from the four elements, flowers were arranged into waves and flames, light sweeping airy designs, and earthy styles giving a nod to floral agriculture. Alongside these, heartfelt tributes to designer Stijn Simaeys were seen all over the castle, you can read all about them here.
Find out what else we saw at the huge festival of flowers in our full report.

Hi this is going to be quite long so bear with me. I have been in a relationship for 15 yrs with a man who is emotionally abusive. I have been trying to get out of it for the last 5 yrs or so. We have an 8yr old daughter so it's always left easier to stay but it's getting to the point I can't bear it no more. He hates my friends, hates me going to work cos he knows I enjoy it even though it's all females. He calls my family a lot and just need to get my life back. He must know how I feel cos he said he would never move out. It would have to be me even though it's my house. He has severe depression and a bit unstable and I'm really scared about how he would react. I don't want to get my family involved as my partner would turn on them if they stuck up for me. I also have two older children from a different relationship who are 16 & 19. They don't like him much either but I can't just get up and leave.
I only realised that I was in an emotionally abusive relationship about 2 yrs ago so this is all quite new to me and not sure where to go from here.
Also I have another problem. About a yr ago my partner found a new friend, who's married with a daughter who's 11. When I met them they seemed blissfully happy. Anyway, as time went on we got to know them more and done things with the children. About 8 months ago I just looked at our friend ( let's call him dave ) one day and realised I found him really attractive. It hit me really hard as I have never cheated on my partner or even looked at another man. About the same time I noticed dave looked at more a bit more than everyone else. There was a lot of eye contact and smiles. He's always teasing me and we get on so well. I seem to have a lot in common. At the time I just tried to brush it off as friendly flirting but over time it's just got worse, we always end up standing close to each other, there's been some accidental touching and we mirror each other. We have never spoke about this but he gets quite flirty and I do too if he phones and my partners not around. I don't even know if he feels the same and would ever cheat or leave his wife. But he doesn't flirt when she's there so I'm not sure and very confused.
I don't intend to cheat on my partner or don't want to be a home wreaker but what if I am missing out on a really special relationship with dave?? We don't get the chance to talk about what's going on as dave never comes to my house unless my partners in. I don't know if he's struggling with his feelings for me just as I am or hes just a flirty guy but if that was the case he would do it infront of his wife because she would be used to him. He's never cheated either so this is all new to him too.
I know I need to sort out my relationship first before thinking about another but you can't help where your heart is taking you. I just want to hear from anyone that's had a similar problem. Thanks to anyone who's read this right through and to all who replies

U.S. political fundraiser gets 12 years for bank fraud
Hassan Nemazee, an Iranian-American businessman who raised money for the political campaigns of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for defrauding Bank of America Corp, Citigroup Inc and HSBC Holdings Plc out of $292 million.
U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein imposed the sentence on Thursday following Nemazee's March 18 guilty plea in Manhattan federal court to charges of bank fraud and wire fraud over loan transactions with the three major banks.
Nemazee said he needed the money to pay debts arising from his dealings in hedge funds and properties.
You know exactly what you have done, Stein told Nemazee during the sentencing proceeding. I don't think there is any fooling yourself by yourself. You have done a great deal of good in your life and yet Stein said, this crime is breathtaking in its brazenness and its scope.
Nemazee was one of the top bundlers of contributions to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics' OpenSecrets.org. He typically donated more than $100,000 annually to Democrats including Clinton, now U.S. secretary of state.
The judge allowed Nemazee, 60, to remain free on bail under strict conditions of home confinement until he reports to a prison on August 27. In addition to 12 years imprisonment and three years of supervised release, Stein ordered Nemazee to make $292.3 million in restitution to the banks.
I am guilty of these frauds. I am also guilty of hypocrisy, said Nemazee, a U.S. citizen whose family left Iran after the 1979 revolution.
The businessman, who once also ran a private equity firm, Nemazee Capital Corp, said he had violated the moral standards he had taught his children and others to abide by.
Nemazee's sentence of 12 years was less than the term of between 15-1/2 years and 19-1/2 years sought by U.S. prosecutors.
In attempt to explain to the court why he deceived his family and friends, the gray-haired, dapper Nemazee said, I spent countless hours trying to understand why and how I came to cross the line.
Pride, ego, self-image, self-importance are among the reasons I traveled down this destructive path.
Nemazee admitted to obtaining hundreds of millions of dollars in loans from the banks by using fake documents to show supposed ownership of collateral.
His brother-in-law, Shahin Kashanchi, of Telluride, Colorado, has been charged in the case with regularly manufacturing statements for the nonexistent collateral accounts. Kashanchi, who owned a business that installed home electronic equipment, has pleaded not guilty to a charge of bank fraud. His case is pending but no trial date has been set.
Nemazee was a former member of the board of the Iranian American Political Action Committee, whose website says it contributes to candidates for public office in the United States regardless of party affiliation. It works to support Iranian American candidates and issues important to that community such as immigration reform, combating discrimination and support for the community's small businesses.
The case is U.S. v Nemazee, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 09-00902.

Bits From the Branches
A Tale of Two Joshuas
Josh Sofaer had a few weeks to work on Campaign follow-up in New York City before he and his wife, Annette, moved to our Los Angeles branch. Joshua says, After the Campaign it is always a challenge to meet who is hot, and prepare for who is not. Probably the most amazing follow-up conversation I had was with a young man [also] named Joshua. He had called the office requesting information about messianic prophecies. He is only 16, so when I called, I explained that I needed to speak with his mother. His family is Hasidic (ultra Orthodox sect of Judaism), so you can imagine the reaction." The entire family was on the speakerphone. In between their shouting at our Joshua, he was able to ask some thought-provoking questions. The entire time, the other Joshua could be heard in the background, pleading with his family to let him speak. We cannot follow-up on Joshua at this time, due to his age and lack of parental consent. Please pray for him, that God will continue speaking to him and that he will continue to seek the truth about Yeshua.
Ultra Orthodox Jew Challenged by Poster
Also in New York, missionary Lev Leigh met Jacob, a Hasid who says that for a long time, he has not been able to identify with the Hasidic lifestyle. One day Jacob was walking through the subways feeling disillusioned, and he saw a "Jews for Jesus: Why Not?" poster (which was part of our Summer Campaign outreach). Jacob thought to himself "Maybe this is it …" He called our special hot-line, Lev returned his call and they visited. Lev believes that Jacob is open to Jesus being the Messiah. Please pray that Jacob will pray to receive the Lord and that God will give him grace to deal with all that would imply, for he would be a total outcast and would have to leave his community.
A Very "Practical" Joke
From Moscow, volunteer Irina says, "Dear brothers and sisters! I want to tell you how the Lord kept me from being arrested while I was broadsiding." It seems a policeman tried to drive Irina away from the street corner, and when she protested that she was doing nothing wrong, he demanded that she come with him to the police station. At that moment a middle-aged woman and her daughter approached the policeman, laughing, as the woman said: "I say young man, where could I get such handcuffs? I'd like to give a pair to my daughter as a birthday present." Irina looked on with amusement, but while the policeman was answering, she realized that she could get safely away from him— which she did!
Some time later the mother and daughter overtook Irina. The mother put her arm around Irina's waist and asked sympathetically why the policeman had been threatening her. Irina says, "Then I understood that they had played a joke on the policeman in order to help me. I laughed and thanked them—and then I thanked my Lord for delivering me."
Why We Keep Handing Out Tracts
In Washington, D.C., Chief of Station Bob Mendelsohn was handing out tracts when he met a thirty-something Reform (liberal) Jew named Martin. He seemed open yet would only give his work number. A few days later Bob called Martin's office and invited him to meet that very night. Sure enough, Martin came by the office and, praise the Lord, he gave his life to Jesus! He has many fears about his family's reaction—which is why he gave his work number—so please pray for grace and strength for Martin.
From Blasphemy to Beauty
In London, a Jewish man named Daniel came into our shop and admitted that he had driven past our brightly painted Jews for Jesus sign many times, thinking, "What blasphemy." Now, he sees it and thinks, "How beautiful!" What made the difference? Daniel began reading the Bible, and at the same time, a Christian friend began sharing her faith with him. Daniel began to realize that Jesus was the Messiah and came to us with some questions. After Chief of Station Richard Harvey answered his questions and explained how to know God personally, Daniel prayed to give his heart to Yeshua. Do remember Daniel in prayer as he shares his new faith with friends and family.
Wandering Jews for Jesus
In Toronto missionaries Marcello Araujo and Stan Meyer (acting Chief of Station while Karol Joseph was on study leave in Pasadena) broadsided "free day" at the Canadian National Exhibition. There were rivers of people, and they distributed 4,500 tracts within two hours but had no contacts! (Contacts, meaning people who are willing to give their names, addresses and phone numbers, receive further information.) So, they took advantage of the free day to wander through the CNE. As they wandered, people took note of the Jews for Jesus T-shirts, and Marcello and Stan got seven contacts. God is faithful!

- Krugman, Venables and Fujita. The Spatial Economy: It a great book, so people say. Unfortunately I can not understand it. File under "books that I pretend to have read".
- Fujita and Thisse. Economics of Agglomeration: Easier than Spatial Economy, but still too technical for my limited mathematical skills. Also, it is not really comprehensive and it doesn't cover the NEG empirical issues.
- Baldwin et al. Economic Geography and Public Policy: Impressive book. They simplify New Economic Geography models, making them tractable and able to shed lights on public policy issues.
- Brakman et al. An Introduction to Geographical Economics: Perfect. Not too demanding, not too simple. Comprehensive, it elegantly covers theory and empirics of NEG. It should be the first step to anyone interested in New Economic Geography. Highly recommended.

A year ago, 49 people were killed at an Orlando nightclub in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. During this half hour of River to River, host Ben Kieffer talks with Daniel Hoffman-Zinnel, executive director of One Iowa and Brian Bruening, who joined us to talk about the shootings last year after penning an editorial in the Des Moines Register titled "I'm gay and married to a Muslim and today I am not ok."
Hoffman-Zinnel says that given the anniversary of the shooting, he's troubled that President Trump has not issued a proclamation regarding pride month.
"June is LGBT pride month, and over the last eight years, the White House has sent a note of a proclamation of pride month. This year, we haven't had that yet," he says. "That proclamation set a tone, sent a message to the community."
