The leaders of the G20 group of major world economies are gathering in Cannes amid a global financial crisis and fears of a recession.
And it's not for the first time.
After the 2008 financial crisis, the G20 came into its own as leaders from China and India worked alongside those of the West to head off a global financial meltdown.
But in more recent years, leaders have found it much harder to find common ground over economic and trade adjustments.
So what are the key issues this time round?
The eurozone. And the global economy.
Prime Minister George Papandreou dropped a bombshell on Monday night by saying the latest eurozone bailout deal should be put to a national referendum.
But the Greek public is very angry at the spending cuts demanded by Greece's lenders, and are minded to vote no. So it's a big gamble.
That has got the markets in a tizz.
Meanwhile, according to the International Monetary Fund among others, the global economy is precariously teetering on the edge of another recession.
Greece is a small country. Why should the G20 care?
What happens in Greece raises big questions about the eurozone as a whole.
After crisis talks on Wednesday, the Greek, German and French leaders all agreed that the referendum will effectively decide whether Greece stays in the euro.
But many economists have warned that if Greece returns to the drachma, it would set a dreadful precedent, and could spark bank runs in other troubled eurozone governments as people fear their own government will follow suit.
Lenders are already very nervous about Italy, which also has a lot of debt, but is a lot bigger than Greece.
If Italy found it impossible to borrow, it would also find it impossible to repay its existing debts.
European banks have lent a lot of money to Italy and other troubled eurozone governments. And other banks throughout the world have lent a lot of money to Europe's banks.
So the debt crisis in Europe threatens a possible chain reaction of government and bank failures similar to what happened in 2008.
Doesn't Europe already have a bailout arrangement for Italy and the banks?
European governments agreed to increase their bailout fund from 440bn euros to about 1tn euros. And they want their banks to increase their capital - their buffer against losses - by a further 106bn euros.
But there are several problems.
First, they want countries like China to contribute money towards the bailout fund.
Second, besides Greece, the agreement also needs to be ratified by 16 other eurozone parliaments.
Third, even before Greece's referendum announcement, markets seemed to have lost confidence in the bailout deal, and in Italian debt in particular.
Why would China and the others agree to help Europe out?
There is an element of self-interest. If the eurozone unravels - for example if Italy went bust - it could result in another global financial crisis and recession, which is no good for anyone.
But China may attach strings to any loans, such as being given more access to European markets or getting political support in its disputes with Taiwan or the US.
It is also possible that China would demand guarantees from Germany and other stronger eurozone countries for any money they lend to Italy, which rather defeats the point of asking for their money.
Some economists say that China also has an interest in buying the euros it would need to make the loans, as this would tend to push up the euro's value, giving Chinese exports a competitive advantage.
What if the eurozone bailout deal fails?
If Greece reneges, or another country does, there could be a major global financial crisis.
Indeed, the crisis may be coming anyway, as many economists warn that the latest bailout deal is inadequate to rescue Italy.
So a big item in leaders' minds will be contingency planning - how to insulate their own banks and their own economy from another financial panic.
There is likely to be pressure from other countries for the Europeans to do more, for instance by increasing the size of the bailout fund to 2tn-3tn euros, or by making the banks raise even more capital.
Many economists, particularly in the US, say that the only real solution to the crisis is to get the European Central Bank to cut interest rates and to print the money needed - something it has steadfastly resisted until now.
What about the rest of the world economy?
The US and UK economies have slowed sharply in recent months, and there are fears of a recession irrespective of what happens in the eurozone.
China meanwhile is having to deal with the dilemma of high inflation coupled with a stagnant manufacturing sector.
There has been a lot of talk of a possible "hard landing" for the Chinese economy, which has relied increasingly on debt-fuelled investment in infrastructure and construction to continue its rapid growth during the last few years.
Another financial crisis and global recession could expose large bad debts in China, tipping its economy over the edge and risking social unrest.
The eurozone crisis is already pushing the West towards recession by preventing the banks from lending, and by undermining business and consumer confidence.
What can they do to head off a recession?
Last time the world faced crisis and recession in 2008-09, the G20 came together to agree big spending increases by governments and interest rate cuts by central banks.
However, both policies are much harder this time round.
Many governments either cannot spend more (Italy), are afraid to do so (the UK), are already spending flat-out (China), are sceptical of the merits of government spending (Germany) or face major political obstacles at home (the US).
Meanwhile, it is much harder for central banks in the UK and US to help their economies, because interest rates are already practically zero and cannot be cut any further.
They can print more money - through "quantitative easing" - but if it is not coupled with more government spending, the effectiveness of this policy may be limited.
The European Central Bank has the most scope to stimulate its economy. It could cut its interest rate from the current 1.5% to zero. And it could print money and buy up the debts of Italy and other countries.
But the man of the hour - Mario Draghi - has only just been installed as the ECB's new president, and nobody is entirely sure what he thinks or whether he could convince others at the bank to change course even if he tried.
Will they reach agreement?
That probably depends on how heightened the sense of crisis - and therefore for the need of collective self-preservation - is.
Consensus was built in 2009 on fears of a rerun of the 1930s. It broke down as the world economy began to recover, with developing countries doing much better than the West.
The most divisive issue on the table is trade.
The US and Europe want countries like China and Japan to buy more of their goods.
But the big Asian exporter countries have built their economies on selling goods to Western consumers.
They are both intervening in the markets to stop their currencies from strengthening, so that they can keep their exports competitive.
If governments are unable to spend their way to recovery, there is a risk that they may instead resort to a ruinous trade war - just like happened in the Great Depression.

Time to Kick Your Fundraising into High Gear?
Put This New Resource into Your Fundraising Toolbox
Kick Your Fundraising into High Gear!
Put This New Tool into Your Fundraising Toolbox
"The DPD is a blessing for someone who's raised money before, as it's taught this old dog a few new tricks! It's a very helpful resource for the rookie missionary and has great reminders for the veteran." — Franz M, Missionary to Europe
Vaporize Your Fear of Donor Development
Most Mission Organizations expect you to raise your own support to work with them. And most won't let you go to the field unless you have 100% of your support in hand before you go.
That's a fearful reality for most who consider a mission career.
Did you know that only 2% of those who consider a mission career actually make it happen! Fear of fundraising keeps the 98% off the field.
They are FEARFUL to step up on the fundraising treadmill, so they don't go.
They FEAR they'll alienate friends and family if they ask for funds.
They FEAR the hard work that comes with fundraising.
The FEAR rejection if they ask for money.
They FEAR they won't get all their money, so why start?
They FEAR they are not worthy enough to have people give to them!
FEAR creates paralysis — so they never get to the field.
Now You Can Take the Fear Out of Fundraising
©The Dynamic Partnership Development training program (DPD) helps develop faith in your heart so you overcome the fear of fundraising and march on to gain full funding.
I've been there and done that. For the past 45 years my wife, Sheri and I, worked in global missions and had an Anchor Funding team go with us every step of the way . . . for 45 years! (See more about us in 'About.')
I'm here to say, it can be done, and I'm here to give you help in that process.
I know what it means if missionaries never get to the field. By missing out, they leave a 'black hole of Kingdom impact' out there somewhere that never gets filled.
YOU are needed somewhere in the world, to do an important task in God's Kingdom, and you need funds to do it.
So let me help you.
"As we started out in our mission career, the Dynamic Partnership Development was informative and explained well what Partnership Development is all about and how important it is to care for our Partners. The modules really help grasp the beginning stages and set the tone for the rest of the training. It is great to have a guide to help us as we work on partnership development without much prior experience." — Jonathon and Candice R, Missionaries to Costa Rica
The DPD is the New 21st Century Fundraising Tool
I've written the ©Dynamic Partnership Development coaching resource after 45 years of fundraising experience adapted to the 21st technological century, to help you overcome your fear and move courageously and effectively down the track to full funding.
Here's How the DPD Can Help You:
The DPD Helps You Raise Money
Smarter not Harder
Fundraising takes a lot of effort. Funds don't drop into your ministry account like a waterfall. Rather you have to prime the hand pump to get things started, and then the water starts to flow.
We Americans have become the 'Microwave' generation.
We want things done FAST.
We want things done EASILY.
We want things done NOW.
Unfortunately when we apply this to mission fundraising, it simply doesn't work.
Rather than gaining some training in how to do this, or putting into place a solid administrative foundation, we 'wing' the process. Learning lessons as we go costs us time, money, energy, and precious contacts.
Are you going back to ask a friend for money again, after you messed up a fundraising presentation due to inadequate preparation and they said 'No?'
There is a better way:
- Know your "Why" clearly before you start!
- Learn the fundraising basics before you start!
- Lay your administrative foundation before you start!
- Harness the power of the Internet before you start!
- Prepare yourself before you start!
Then when you start contacting friends and family to ask for money, you are on top of the fundraising process.
You then have courage, perspective, and insight. You drive the process instead of the process driving you. You know what steps to take confidently. You're on a mission and you know how to succeed!
The DPD helps you understand the fundraising process; lay that administrative foundation; gain the altitude and perspective; and work smarter from the get-go.
"Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way." — Proverbs 19:2 (ESV)
The DPD Puts the Joy Back into Fundraising
Is Fundraising a grind to you?
Are you demotivated to make those calls and meet people for presentations?
Does the phone freak you out?
Are you spending more time watching videos on your phone, than digging in and hitting your fundraising?
Are you procrastinating because you're out of motivation?
You need to put the joy back into your fundraising. The DPD can help you do that.
It gives you a long-range perspective on fundraising and spells out the implications of a less-than-100% funded life.
And when you see more people joining your Anchor Team because you now work more effectively, the joy will return. Your spouse's joy as well!
"The DPD is enhancing my confidence levels to raise money at a point In our calling where we are convinced we must do this pastoral care work.
Previously, it was hard for me to make personal appeals for money for a couple reasons: First, because I didn't have a good path to follow in fundraising; and secondly, because of the Zambian cultural view that only someone who 'preached' was worthy of being paid.
The DPD has given me the knowledge, faith, courage and the practical tools to succeed against my fears and cultural traditions. It is a powerful Resource!" — Justin M, Care Minister in Zambia
The DPD Turns Your Social Media Time
into Money
You most likely spend time on social media every day, or at least a couple times a week, right? Maybe you do it to relax or connect with friends and family.
But consider: You could leverage that social media time to gain more donors and ministry funding if you knew how. Then you're leveraging your social media time to also create dollars, euros, pounds and pesos.
The DPD helps you increase your social media reach so you can recruit new people from across the globe to follow you and donate to your ministry.
A few tweaks here and there in your social media time and you can increase your tribe of followers, and your bottom line.
And an additional benefit: You'll never run out of potential donors again and you'll know the next right person to call.
The DPD Launches You into Ministry More Quickly
Most of us wish we could put the fundraising aside, and jump in the ministry saddle immediately, right?
Our hearts, minds, and energy are straining to minister. Therefore, do you want to get your funding in as soon as possible and launch into ministry?
The DPD will help you get to that point more quickly.
If you are NEW to Fundraising, the DPD can be used as a step-by-step guide, taking your systemmatically through the fundraising process.
If you are a VETERAN in fundraising, the DPD can re-ignite your efforts, give you new ideas, and challenge you to reach your goal. The DPD Index let's you choose the resources you need, pop into them with a click, and start learning.
So get on the airplane faster through the DPD!
The DPD Keeps You In Ministry With
Less Energy and Less Worry Put into Fundraising
One issue we don't think about on the front-end, is the back end. We get exhilarated when our budget is fully funded, and we finally make it to the plane.
However, over time the reality of 'donor attrition' hits us. We see our bank account numbers dwindling month-by-month. The worry sets in, and soon we are putting in a lot of energy again to crank up our fundraising.
That doesn't have to be!
The DPD creates a fundraising system you can maintain with a small amount of time each month. And your tribe of followers increases, providing many potential donors down the road.
If your system is in place, and you put in weekly maintenance time, you won't have to stress or worry about your on-going fundraising.
"I have enjoyed the DPD material and its ability to mesh the old with the new. For us in the Baby Boomer generation we have a lot to learn on how to communicate to the Millennials and the x-'ers. But relationship is relationship. Us boomers have an edge on face-to-face communication and its impact. I appreciate that you pulled together the insights on how to blend the generations and technology to accomplish our mission. Still chewing on all the data" — Kevin M., Missionary Leader and Trainer
What Do You Receive in the DPD?
I've written the DPD as a 21st Century Fundraising Resource for you. It provides 500 pages of research, tips, methods, concepts, motivations, and plans at an exceptional price.
It helps you develop a long-term donor system you build on for the length of your career.
The 500 pages are broken down into 3 Units of 31 Modules into 66 content Coaching Sessions. Each Session takes you about 45 minutes to read and consider.
Application of some lessons will take a little longer since tool development is involved.
But you can work at your own pace. Do one lesson a day, or three and jump around to the 'hot button' content most relevant to you at the time.
Because of the intensity and extent of the content, the digital DPD fills in the blanks from other written resources you may have on your bookshelf. And the linked index moves you quickly from one lesson to another.
For example, if you have a good donor management system already in place, but need stimulation and ideas in fundraising, you can jump to another lesson which focuses on that topic.
Here's a Quick Overview of the DPD Content
Unit One — Find Partners Through Basic Tools.
Having your own donor development system in place and functioning moves you effortlessly forward in fundraising. This is your foundation, so the DPD covers that first.
By the end of Unit 1, you'll . . .
- Have your email and snail mail manager in place
- Know how much money you must actually raise
- Have a list of potential donors in hand
- Have a friend praying for you and helping you in this process
- Know how to identify friends more eager to give to you
- Gain training in traditional fundraising methods — the bread and butter of initial fundraising
- Develop your promotional pieces and know how to use them
- Have a donor management system in place
- Deal with your fears in fundraising
- Start seeing money flow into your ministry account
Unit Two – Grow Your Tribe of Partners
Once your partnership foundation is laid you are ready to enlist a tribe of partners. There's skill in this process as well. Don't waste time and effort.
By the end of Unit Two, you'll . . .
- Have a prayer team interceding for your fundraising efforts
- Present your Calling, Vision, and Mission clearly
- Know how to use your website to attract more followers
- Understand the essential role of newsletters and effective use
- Be able to create Magnets that draw people to you and your ministry
- Utilize strategies to expand your email list
- Better understand how your donors and potential donors think
- Use a 'Welcome Kit' you've designed
- Understand the negative impact of donor attrition and how to reverse that into donor retention
Unit Three – Expand Your Number of Partners Through Social Media Reach
Once people join your ministry tribe, you must not only keep them with you by developing their loyalty, but you need to enlist new people to become future donors.
Social Media helps with both of those tasks. But again, you need to use them effectively or you'll suck a lot of time into a social media black hole!
By the end of Unit Three, you'll . . .
- Know how to harness the power and reach of social media
- Be using Facebook strategies to attract new followers
- Be gaining funds from internet promoted ministry projects
- Have several internet funding strategies at your disposal
- Be fully funded, or close to it, and on your way!
Unit Four– Enlist Partners Through Personal, Direct, Face-to-Face Presentations.
In the DPD Unit 1, Module 3, I recommend training in Face-to-Face, Traditional fundraising skills. Since there are excellent programs already existing for this, I point DPD students toward those, instead of reinventing the wheel in the DPD.
However some Internationals do not have the funds for these programs as Americans or Europeans might. So I wrote DPD Unit 4 especially for them.
If you are a DPD student and want this traditional face-to-face training, (Unit 4) please let me know after you purchase the DPD and are started, and I'll send it to you. email@example.com
As a result of Unit 4, you'll . . .
- Understand the value & necessity of face-to-face presentations
- Have tools developed for these presentations
- Know how to effectively make a face-to-face presentation
- Be able to use Skype for international donor presentations
- Pioneer this methodology in your own culture
- Be enlisting new anchor donors and expanding your donor team

Tasks are the electronic equivalent of those to-do notes scattered all over your desk. Tasks are an excellent candidate for electronic organization because, like Outlook's other components, they can be edited, sorted, organized, categorized, and quickly shuffled for priority when all your best laid plans take a turn for the worse.
The real power of Tasks, however, lies in their ability to leverage Outlook's other components to delegate a task to another person. This assignment feature uses email to send a task to someone on your contact list. The task can then be accepted or rejected by the recipient, and on acceptance, automatically tracked until complete.

clueless comments x 3
On Friday afternoon I did something completely out of the ordinary: I made an effort.
This translated to me putting in my contacts and wearing something other than black. I also changed my earrings, broke out the straightening iron, and even contemplated make up!
(Didn't follow through with that one but I believe contemplation deserves recognition.)
I did all of this because I figured that instead of defrosting Trader Joe's Turkey Meatballs or ordering takeout, we might actually go out for dinner. On a Friday night no less!
So after taking Maya to the doctor and Target, after a dropping off books at the library and then picking up milk, Maya and I returned home, excited about the endless possibilities for a dinner beyond my sad repertoire of pasta and omelets.
But then, this:
Ali – Clueless Comment #1: "Your hair looks really dry."
Me, in my head: How does one respond to this?
Ali – Clueless Comment #2: "It looks like it might break any second."
Me, in my head: Why thank you Ali. Nothing like a compliment to kick off my Friday evening.
Ali – Clueless Comment #3: "I think you need a better conditioner or something."
To be honest, I wasn't really offended as I know this is Ali trying to be "helpful." Still, I put my glasses back on, took my diamond hoops off, and thanked my lucky stars I wasn't dumb enough to put on makeup hours earlier. And then I said: "So are you picking up CPK or Cheesecake Factory for dinner tonight?"
And then immediately after that? I made the soonest Japanese straightening appointment I could get.
May 8, 2013 12:47 am
Awww, you make such an adorable family Ameena.
Iam blessed with the messy sort of hair too. My straightening is 'coming-off' and I have already been asked in the past week, if I was having a bad hair day?
So–I can totally relate! 🙂
May 8, 2013 5:23 am
Wait, wait why couldn't you go out with your allegedly dry hair? Or did you not really want to go out? It was the straightening that made my hair almost fall out/off.

There is a fine line between trying to be helpful and being inadvertently unkind, and these comments get close to it! Ali's lucky that yuu are patient and understanding. 🙂
Lydia permalinkMay 8, 2013 7:15 am
What was Ali talking about? Your hair *always* looks fabulous. He needs glasses!
May 8, 2013 8:39 am
Ali pays attention to your hair! My husband is completely oblivious to what I do to to my hair. Once I did a total makeover and chopped almost a foot of my hair…a foot….and he still did not notice.
PS: You have gorgeous hair and all your facebook pics are a testimony to that fact.
May 8, 2013 8:47 am
Don't listen to Ali! Your hair always looks great to me. Thick and healthy. Ha! I do notice that you wear a lot of black! I think it's great to incorporate some brights. I realized I have mostly neutrals in my closet and I'm trying to mix things up with every new purchase.
May 8, 2013 10:43 am
he sure knows how to kill that date night spirit lol! i use this leave in conditioner: http://www.beautybar.com/p/phyto-phytomist-conditioner-76612?site=CA&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc_BB&utm_term=PHY-013&utm_campaign=Google&CAWELAID=1337582375&utm_content=pla&ci_sku=PHY-013&ci_gpa=pla&ci_kw={keyword}

Thank goodness you didn't put on makeup!!!! Seriously, at the end of the night when I realize I don't have to wash my face because I am not wearing makeup, elation overcomes me.
I for one think that's the sweetest picture, I love it!
Also we do sometimes forget about ourselves. I've been trying to take better care of myself so I booked myself a massage on Friday and just earlier today I scheduled a hair appt. 🙂
May 8, 2013 11:07 am
Un-clueless comment X1: Boys are dumb.
May 8, 2013 1:14 pm
I like that he just kept going as if you didn't truly understand the first comment. You gotta appreciate his resilience 🙂 Oh, and for the record, I think you have gorgeous hair!
Med permalinkMay 8, 2013 1:50 pm
Lol! Once years ago Anthony told me I "look tired." Like Ali, he probably thought he was coming from a helpful place, but the reaction (or major over-reaction) I gave him that day has resulted in an end to clueless comments about appearance from then on 😉
May 8, 2013 7:50 pm
That's clueless, but he's kinda funny. I bet you laughed a little when he said that. 🙂 Such a beautiful family photo. I love CPK – the Mexican Pizza is the best.
May 9, 2013 2:56 am
Ahhh straight hair dilemmas- have the same issue. Gorgeous family pic!
By the way, what is CPK? I thought it was a typo for KFC
May 9, 2013 5:15 pm
The only time my hair looks good is coming from my hair gal. Other than that it's a wavy mess. I even go out in public like that b/c I can't take the time to blow it out. Others just have to live with that!
May 9, 2013 10:10 pm
Haha guys have no tact AT ALL! But hey if you're going to have to hear these comments, better it comes from your hubby than an outsider right! I bet your hair is looking great after your appt…nothing like a trip to the hair salon to make me feel infinitely better (even when the rest of my appearance is not up to mark)!

Clark Weber is probably right. If it had to happen, the sale of talk radio station WIND (AM 560) to a company that will turn it into a Spanish-language station couldn`t have come at a better time.
``There looks like there will be a lot of new opportunities in the market,`` says Weber, morning drive host and local radio veteran. ``The big AM stations--WGN, WMAQ and WLS--are all due for some shaking up.``

I rly do not have any complaints or issues w/this store I am happy w/the usual items required. I often shop here comparatively & mostly I am satisfied w/this store. Some brands suck worse then others but you learn. (Can peaches are not ripe or/and overly ripe, rid the shelves w/ them!) Skinny chicken, are they farm fresh? Somewhat afraid of em…. however w/the rest of the story, alimentally I'm content. Comparatively save allot has the best prices, I'm not hard to please rly & this store makes this easy for me w/out all the hardships of avoiding things I need because of high prices. So who can complain? I am the average intrinsic shopper, I think like most other people, I am not associated w/the people/store so I neither gain nor lose from posting my thoughts or the facts. I simply want folks to_ "SAVE A L0T_ is all seriOUsly~
Thx for caring S.A.L~
Store was pretty clean and neat. There were not too many name brand selections that were much cheaper than regular stores. The real downfall was that some of the meat selections that we looked...
If you want to feed your entire family without spending an entire paycheck, then you make the short trip to Save-a-lot in Pennsville.I do recommend making a trip to acme or iga once a month for fresh…

Yes, it's my brother John's birthday today! He's done really well since his stroke in November (very scary watching that I can tell you!!!).
His Rheumatoid Arthritis is holding him back, but his memory isn't all that so he forgets things. I know my memory isn't all that brilliant but I can remember more than him sometimes :-)))
I had to do some moving around as now I've moved to the new Dialysis Centre, it means my appointments are all at the wrong time at the hospital!!! So I've had to arrange to see if there is a free slot there after my appointment and then rearrange the transport just for one day to go to Carshalton rather than Byfleet.
It was weird going back there. I knew I'd have a wait after the scan of an hour, but it was finished early and I had to wait over two hours instead. Very boring as there is nothing but a blank waiting room to sit it. No cafe near either just a drinks machine in the cold outside.
Anyway it was good to see some of the old faces and they all wanted to know what I was doing back there.
When I was told a machine was free, I went it an saw the Nurses again. It's lovely to catch up!!! I was asked how I felt on dialysis in the new place, and had to admit that I've been feeling rough.
They said I shouldn't be all the time. You might get the odd day here and there but not all the time. I'm getting 9 days out of 10 feeling rough. They put me on at 2000 units and 4 hours compared to 1500 and 4.5 hours. I'll see how it goes and how I feel over the next couple of days and then check with where I am if it's different.
As usual I came off the machine and had cramp in both ankles, that's normal for me so I've found out. Better to be after I'm off the machine than when plugged in and cannot move to help it. At least by walking to the Ladies it eases off a bit.
I had some presents of big tins of chocolates for the Nurses and the Transport Drivers too along with my handmade cards. I like to show I appreciate what they have done.
Well without them, I wouldn't be alive would I...quite a sobering thought!!!!
Yes, I'm at the Dentist! My only day free from dialysis and I'm back in a Dentist chair! Good job I don't mind now.
I used to hate the Dentist, but have found a great one who really looks after me and puts me at ease. I feel totally relaxed in the dentist chair now.
Shame they can't measure my Blood Pressure here instead! My BP has gone really low, really really really low for me! They kept asking me if I was feeling OK and did I feel odd at all. Nope, not me, felt the same as normal.
Mind you it's quite worrying it is that low!!! I'm going to keep a log of the results for a while so that my Doctor can see at the end of the month. They've already reduced some of the drugs so that's a good thing. It can only help can't it.
Hopefully this is now more up to date I'll be able to keep it going now. As I said I won't bore you each time, but it will be regularly updated again.
Thanks for staying with me throught this...!!! :-)))
They used my Fistula today and boy does it hurt!!! My arm is all swollen and I've got a huge bruise on it. I've been told to keep an ice pack on for twenty four hours. That's annoying in bed!!!!
Well it's annoying all the time but it's got to be done.
Not the best looking arm, but it's the best looking one I've had for a while. It's been so badly bruised they can't use it at dialysis, so it's a good job I've still got the neck lines in and they work.

The Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is offering a new experience for leadership and team-building groups.
The 57-acre property, which overlooks the Rio Grande River Valley at the base of the Sangre de Cristo and Jemez mountains, is now home to five horses and a donkey. Guests can participate in the Equus Experience, a new program that uses equines to help human participants work on confidence building, trust, and self-discovery. The program is led by equine learning facilitators Kelly Wendorf and Scott Strachan and their team, and sessions can range from three hours to a multi-day course. Groups of up to 40 attendees can work with the horses on customized exercises that help participants establish connections, learn to trust, and practice leadership and listening with unspoken communication.
The program opened in late February and so far has been popular with corporate groups staying in the 65-room resort. Peter Falke, director of sales and marketing, says, "What I have found planners to be intrigued by is having a productive program and giving people the opportunity to advance productivity for their group but also for self improvement. There is an appetite and thirst from the meetings community to do something different in terms of leadership, self discovery, and team building."
The Equus program is based in what was formerly known as "the Goodnight House," the former residence of a local artist and also the resort's founder, Betty Egan. Falke suggests the program has become popular so quickly because meeting planners are looking for ways to accomplish team building and implement leadership programs without forcing attendees to sit in a classroom for three days. For groups who would like to do both, Rancho Encantado has a 700-square-foot boardroom and the 2,500-square-foot Aspen ballroom, as well as four indoor-outdoor patio or terrace function rooms for intimate meetings or large seminars. Another unusual feature available for groups at the resort is a teepee that can accommodate 20 for yoga or meditation sessions.

1. QUALITY FAMILY TIME. And boy we needed it. Before the football field and back to school beckons us, we ventured out to Camelbeach Mountain Waterpark in Tannersville, PA for an action-packed weekend in the heart of the Pocono Mountains. There simply isn't a price tag you can place on the together time, and we had one fantastic weekend with friends. Just be careful of the side-effects… big people may turn into little ones.
2. ACTION PACKED FUN! Some of our waterpark favorites: FlowRider, a fast moving, boogie-boarding skills challenge and fun for all ages. All my "boys" loved this one. The Checkered Flag Challenge let us all race side by side down a steep but thrilling multi-lane slide. Other fun spots for us included the lazy river, wave pool and Pharaoh's Phortress, a massive 4-story interactive water play structure with 8 water slides, fountains, spray guns and tipping buckets. We could literally stay here all day – or move in permanently. Whatever.
3. CONVENIENCES ABOUND. We've experienced our fair share of theme and water parks, and we found several reasons to truly love Camelbeach. For one, its really clean, and that's important when you're considering little bladders and water all around. And family conveniences are everywhere, like tons of lockers for keeping necessities safe, life-jacket and baby changing stations, lounge chairs under large umbrellas, safety signage, attentive staff literally everywhere, and Speedpass options – all serving to optimize your experience so you can focus on the fun. And what fun we had!
4. A HEAVENLY HOMEBASE. Having a shady cabana with lounge chairs and lunch service was an extra delicious way to spend the day. Cabanas are located throughout the park and offered a cozy space for storing towels and belongings, enjoying refreshments, lunch, and checking for cracks in our eyelids. High-fives to Tiffany, our server for the day who rocked a busy day of hungry/thirsty park go'ers with speed, patience and a constant smile.
5. YOU CAN MAKE IT AFFORDABLE. Of course there are kiosks all around where families can indulge in shakes, waffles, seafood, snacks and souvenirs – but for the budget-minded {raises hand}, you can plan the day wisely. Stock a cooler with lunch/snacks/refreshments and purchase a $15 picnic table for the day located in an accessible, tented area just next to all of the activity. Then stick to the plan, Stan, but do overindulge in the fun.
6. AMPED UP ADVENTURE. An extension to the water park, Camelback Mountain Adventures stepped up the action and immersed us in adventure and an appreciation of the breath-taking scenic and natural landscape of the Pocono Mountains. Take your pick of a 1,000 ft zip line or 4,000 ft tandem zip line – the largest in North America. (That's me below and thankfully – no audio.) The Mountain Coaster, tucked neatly between ski runs was a favorite. It allowed my little guy to fully experience the height and beauty of the mountain while the big boys were busy on their Tree Tops Adventure Course, a half or full day of zipping and climbing obstacles like swaying bridges, cargo nets and high wires perched at tree top height. We capped off our fun in the Adventure Zone with rock climbing, euro-bungee and free falling – perfect for anyone looking for a dose of excitement.
7. SOAK UP THE SUMMER AND SAVE $. Take advantage of these great savings with several weeks left for summer fun. Four4Fun discount tickets are now available at $119.99 for admission for 4 people. Sign up for social coupons for additional savings and don't forget to Hashtag Hangout! You could win tickets and season passes! Camelbeach partners with local businesses to make your experience easy and enjoyable. We stayed at the Chateau Resort and Conference Center located just at the base of the mountain with sweeping mountain views and total convenience for park visitors. We dined at Desaki, and enjoyed a world-class Hibachi menu with a family-friendly focus. (To be reviewed separately.)
8. GET READY FOR MORE! Camelback Lodge & Indoor Waterpark is coming in Spring 2015 and will feature the largest indoor family entertainment center and indoor water park in the Northeast. I cannot wait to come back and experience this. There will be 453 guest suites, conference and entertainment space, spa and dining options, and of course the indoor waterpark called Aquatopia, that appears to break the mold for dream family vacations with 2 levels, 7 pools, 13 water slides, swim-up bar and private cabanas with wait service. Learn more here:
Don't let summer slip away. Get yourself to Camelbeach Mountain Waterpark and Camelback Mountain Adventures.
Disclosure: We were hosted as guests for the weekend by Camelbeach, including entrance passes to Camelbeach Mountain Waterpark, cabana and lunch. Overnight accomodations provided by the Chateau Resort and Conference Center. Dinner provided by Desaki. Opinions expressed are strictly our own.

Security Profiles
This chapter describes new security profile features added to FortiOS 5.4.
FortiClient Profile changes (356205)
Features involving general settings have been removed from the FortiClient profile GUI in 5.4.1. Features emphasizing compliance of the endpoint devices have been added. These enhancements facilitate integration with the Cooperative Security Fabric.
|When FortiClient endpoint compliance is enabled and FortiClient endpoints are registered to FortiGate, you must upgrade registered FortiClient endpoints. Be sure to upgrade registered endpoints to FortiClient 5.4.1 before upgrading your FortiGate to FortiOS 5.4.1.
FortiClient endpoint compliance enforcement has three actions. When the action is set to Block or Warning, it is up to you to provision endpoints either via the Enterprise Management Server (EMS) or manually. When the action is set to Auto-update, the FortiGate will provision the endpoint.
|If the endpoint does not match compliance rules in the FortiClient Security Profile, then it will be blocked.
|If the endpoint does not match compliance rules in the FortiClient Security Profile, then it will show on the Monitor > FortiClient Monitor as not-compliant. Traffic will not be blocked.
|If the endpoint is not-compliant, the FortiGate will push a limited profile to the endpoint and attempt to get it to be compliant.
CLI syntax
A third value called compliant and new attributes have been added to existing CLI.
config endpoint-control profile
edit <profile name>
config forticlient-winmac-settings
set compliance-action {block | warning | auto-update}
set os-av-software-installed {enable | disable}
set forticlient-log-upload-level {traffic | vulnerability | event}

set forticlient-minimum-software-version {enable | disable}
set forticlient-vuln-scan-enforce {enable | disable}

Virus scanning of MS Outlook email (308797)
FortiOS 5.4.1 allows users to enable or disable inspection of MAPI-over-HTTP (MAPI/HTTP) protocol. This protocol was first delivered with Outlook 2013 SP1 and Exchange 2013 SP1. Enabling inspection ensures that the FortiGate can scan Outlook email for viruses.
CLI commands
config firewall ssl-ssh-profile
edit deep-inspection
set mapi-over-https {enable|disable}
Improved Visibility of Botnet and Command & Control (C&C) protection (308104)
Mobile & Botnet C&C license information is now displayed in the License Information widget in the Dashboard. Additionally, you can view the list of Botnet C&C packages in the IP Reputation Database (IRDB) and the Botnet Domain Database (BDDB) from the License Information widget.
A button has been added to the GUI on the DNS filter page allowing you to block DNS requests known to FortiGuard. When you enable this feature, you can open a definitions window by clicking on "botnet package."
Access to the IRDB is available to users through FortiCare support contracts purchased or renewed before October 1, 2016. After that date, users will have to subscribe to the IRDB either through the FortiGuard Mobility Security Service (FMSS) or the FortiGuard Enterprise Bundle.
DLP changes (297960)
Some DLP features removed. DLP fingerprinting removed from the GUI.
FortiClient Endpoint Profile improvements and new features (285443 275781 287137)
- 275781: New options available in FortiClient Profiles.
- 285446: VPN can be configured on the GUI either on IPsec VPN or SSL-VPN and changes can be preserved.
- 287137: In the Mobile tab, .mobileconfig files can be configured and Client VPN Provisioning can be enabled.
Features involving general settings have been removed from the FortiClient profile GUI in 5.4.1. Features emphasizing compliance of the endpoint devices have been added. Read
FortiClient Enforcement added to Interfaces (253933)
FortiClient enforcement has been moved from the Policy page to Network > Interfaces to enforce FortiClient registration on a desired LAN interface rather than a policy.
To enforce FortiClient endpoint registration - GUI:
- Go to System > Feature Select and enable Endpoint Control.
- Go to Network > Interfaces and select the internal interface.
- Under Restrict Access, enable FortiTelemetry.
- Under Admission Control, enable Enforce FortiTelemetry for all FortiClients.
FortiClient exempt list improvements (268357 293191)
- 268357: Before you could only configure captive portal policy addresses in the CLI, but it can now be performed in the GUI.
- 293191: Exempt List has been replaced with Exempt Sources, and Exempt Destinations/Services has been added (once an interface has been set to captive portal). Before it was only possible to configure the FortiGate interface port to captive portal through the CLI, but it can now also be performed in the GUI.
FortiClient endpoint profile page updates (283968)
The Security Profiles > FortiClient Profiles page has been redesigned to better present the information available, and so the user can easily locate particular settings of interest.
Pre-existing GUI options under User & Device > FortiClient Profiles have been moved to the Security Profiles menu, and have been reorganized into separate tabs: Security, VPN, Advanced, and Mobile. Profiles can be created and options can be enabled within these tabs.
|The VPN, Advanced, and Mobile tabs do not appear in the GUI in FortiOS5.4.1. See FortiClient Profile changes (356205).
Note that Client-based Logging when On-Net has been renamed to Allow Access to Logs from FortiClient Console.
In addition, the following features were added:
- Support for FortiSandbox integration
- Option for C&C destination scanning and blocking
- Certificate deployment as part of endpoint profile
- FortiClientRTP Option updates
- Option to monitor all unknown applications
Configure the ability to store FortiClient configuration files (171380)
- Enable the advanced FortiClient configuration option in the endpoint profile:
config endpoint-control profile
edit "default"
set forticlient-config-deployment enable
set fct-advanced-cfg enable
set fct-advanced-cfg-buffer "hello"
set forticlient-license-timeout 1
set netscan-discover-hosts enable
- Export the configuration from FortiClient (xml format).
- Copy the contents of the configuration file and try to paste in the advanced FortiClient configuration box.
If the configuration file is greater than 32k, you need to use the following CLI:
config endpoint-control profile
edit <profile>
config forticlient-winmac-settings
config extra-buffer-entries
edit <entry_id>
set buffer xxxxxx
FortiOS 5.4 no longer supports FortiClient 5.0 or earlier (289455)
FortiOS 5.2 would support FortiClient 5.0 (only if the FortiGate upgraded to FortiOS 5.2), however FortiOS 5.4 will no longer support FortiClient 5.0. Customers need to purchase a FortiClient 5.4 subscription-based FortiClient license.
Session timers for IPS sessions (174696 163930)
The standard FortiOS session time-to-live (session TTL) timer for IPS sessions has been introduced to reduce synchronization problems between the FortiOS Kernel and IPS. This has been added so that FortiGate hard-coded timeout values can be customized, and IPS was using too much overall memory.
Botnet protection with DNS Filter (293259)
The new botnet list from FortiGuard can be used to block DNS requests to known botnet C&C IP addresses within a new DNS filter profile.
You can view the botnet list by going to System > FortiGuard > Botnet Definitions.
Secure white list database (288365)
Secure white list exemption for SSL deep inspection. To enable, go to Security Profiles > SSL/SSH Inspection and enable Exempt from SSL Inspection and enable Reputable Websites.

Options not supported by the new quick mode flow-based virus scanning (288317)
Files cannot be sent to FortiSandbox for inspection while in quick mode flow-based virus scanning, and so the GUI option for it has been removed. No option to switch between quick mode and full mode, as choice between Proxy and Flow based inspection has been removed.
Add mobile malware to FortiGuard licenses page and include more version information (290049)
An entry and version information for Mobile Malware Definitions has been added in the License Information table under System > FortiGuard. Also, main items have been bolded and sub-items have been indented for clarification.
Secure white-list DB for flow based UTM features (287343)
A new feature that gathers a list of reputable domain names that can be excluded from SSL deep inspection. This list is periodically updated and downloaded to FortiGate units through FortiGuard.
config firewall ssl-ssh-profile
edit deep-inspection
set whitelist enable
New customizable replacement message that appears when an IPS sensor blocks traffic (240081)
A new replacement message will appear specifically for IPS sensor blocked Internet access, to differentiate between IPS sensor blocking and application control blocking.
Low-end models don't support flow AV quick mode and don't support the IPS block-malicious-url option (288318)
AV quick mode and the IPS block-malicious-url option have been disabled on low-end FortiGate models, however these features can be enabled if the FortiGate unit has a hard disk. Low-end models will only supportFullscan mode (the option is left in the GUI to show which mode is active for the user).
New quick mode flow-based virus scanning (281291)
When configuring flow-based virus scanning you can now choose between quick and full mode. Full mode is the same as flow-based scanning in FortiOS 5.2. Quick mode uses a compact antivirus database and advanced techniques to improve performance. Use the following command to enable quick mode in an antivirus profile:
config antivirus profile
edit <profile-name>
set scan-mode {quick | full}
CVE-IDs now appear in the FortiOS IPS signature list (272251)
The signature list can be found at Security Profiles > Intrusion Protection > View IPS Signatures.
Botnet protection added (254959)
The latest Botnet database is available from FortiGuard. You can see the version of the database and display its contents from the System > FortiGuard GUI page. You can also block, monitor or allow outgoing connections to Botnet sites for each FortiGate interface.
FortiSandbox URL database added
You can see the version of the database and display its contents from the System > FortiSandbox GUI page.
New Web Filter profile whitelist setting and changes to blacklist setting (283855, 285216)
Domain reputation can now be determined by "common sense", for sites such as Google, Apple, and even sites that may contain sensitive material that would otherwise be trusted (i.e. there is no risk of receiving botnets or malicious attacks). You can tag URL groups with flags that exempt them from further sandboxing or AV analyzing.
You can identify reputable sites and enable certain bypasses under Security Profiles > Web Filter.
Similarly, you can exempt the identified reputable sites from SSL inspection.
CLI Syntax
config firewall ssl-ssh-profile
edit <profile-name>
set whitelist [enable | disable]
config webfilter profile
edit <profile-name>
config web
set whitelist exempt-av exempt-webcontent exempt-activex-java-cookie exempt-dlp exempt-rangeblock extended-log-others
Support security profile scanning of RPC over HTTP traffic (287508)
This protocol is used by Microsoft Exchange Server so this feature supports security profile features such as virus scanning of Microsoft Exchange Server email that uses RPC over HTTP.
Users now allowed to override blocked categories using simple, wildcard, and regex expressions to identify the URLs that are blocked (270165)
This feature is also called per-user BWL. To be able to configure this feature from the GUI enter the following command:
config system global
set per-user-bwl enable
Then go to Security Profiles > Web Filtering, edit a web filtering profile and select Allow users to override blocked categories.
Use the following command to configure this feature from the CLI:
config webfilter profile
edit <profile-name>
set options per-user-bwl
Set flow or proxy mode for your FortiGate (or per VDOM) (266028)
You can configure your FortiGate or a VDOM to apply security profile features in proxy or flow mode. Change between modes from the System Information dashboard widget. Proxy mode offers the most accurate results and the greatest depth of functionality. Flow mode provides enhanced performance. IPS and application control always operates in flow mode and so is not affected by changing this mode.
Security Profiles > Web Application Firewall
Signatures can now be filtered based on risk level.
The options to reset action and apply traffic shaping is now only available in the CLI.
The All Other Known Applications option has been removed, while the option for All Other Unknown Applications has been renamed Unknown Applications.
Block all Windows executable files (.exe) in email attachments (269781)
A new option has been added to AntiVirus profiles to block all Windows executable files (.exe) in email attachments.
CLI Syntax

edit "default"
config imap
set executables {default | virus}
config pop3
set executables {default | virus}
config smtp
set executables {default | virus}
config mapi
set executables {default | virus}
Cookies can now be used to authenticate users when a web filter override is used (275273)
Cookies can be used to authenticate users when a web filter override is used. This feature is available in CLI only.
CLI Syntax
config webfilter cookie-ovrd
set redir-host <name or IP>
set redir-port <port>
config webfilter profile
edit <name>
config override
set ovrd-cookie {allow | deny}
set ovrd-scope {user | user-group | ip | ask}
set profile-type {list | radius}
set ovrd-dur-mode {constant | ask}
set ovrd-dur <duration>
set ovrd-user-group <name>
set profile <name>
Blocking malicious URLs (277363)
A local malicious URL database dowloaded from FortiGuard has been added to assist IPS detection for live exploits, such as drive-by attacks. You enable blocking malicious URLs in an IPS profile from the CLI using the following command:
CLI Syntax
config ips sensor
edit default
set block-malicious-url {enable | disable}
The FortiGuard IPS/AV update schedule can be set by time intervals (278772)
This feature allows updates to occur more frequently (syntax below shown for updates randomly every 2-3 hours).
CLI Syntax
config system autoupdate schedule
set frequency every
set time 02:60
Application Control signatures belonging to industrial category/group are excluded by default (277668)
Use the following command to be able to add industrial signatures to an application control sensor:
config ips global
set exclude-signatures {none | industrial}
The Industrial category now appears on the Application Control sensor GUI.
An SSL server table can now be used for SSL offloading (275273)

edit <name>
set use-ssl-server {enable | disable}
MAPI RPC over HTTP/HTTPS traffic is now supported for security scanning (278012)
CLI Syntax
config firewall profile-protocol-options
edit "default"
set comment "All default services."
config http
set ports 80 3128
set options rpc-over-http
New Dynamic DNS FortiGuard web filtering sub-category (276495)
A new FortiGuard web filtering sub-category, Dynamic DNS, has been added and can be found in the Security Risk Category. Also, the sub-category Shopping and Auction has been separated into two sub-categories: Auction and Shopping.
New Filter Overrides in the Application Sensor GUI (260901)
The overrides allow you to select groups of applications and override the application signature settings for them.
FortiGate CA certificates installed on managed FortiClients (260902)
This feature allows you to enable or disable CA certificate installation on managed FortiClients in a FortiClient Profile.
config endpoint-control profile
edit <profile>
config forticlient-winmac-settings
set install-ca-certificate [enable | disable]
More exemptions to SSL deep inspection (267241)
Some common sense exemptions have been added to the default SSL deep inspection profile, such as Fortinet, Android, Apple, Skype, and many more.
Exempting URLs for flow-based web filtering (252010)
You can once again exempt URLs for flow-based web filtering.
Filter overrides in Application Sensors (246546)
In the Application Sensor page, a new section named Filter Overrides has been introduced. From this section, clicking Add Filter/Edit Filter will launch a dialog to pick/edit the advanced filter and save it back to the list.
New keyword byte_extract for custom IPS and Application Control signatures (179116)
The new
byte_extract custom IPS signature key has been added that supports snort-like byte extraction actions. It is used for writing rules against length-encoded protocols. The keyword reads some of the bytes from the packet payload and saves it to a variable. You can use the
-quiet option to suppress the reporting of signatures.
IPS logging changes (254954)
IPS operations severely affected by disk logging are moved out of the quick scanning path, including logging, SNMP trap generation, quarantine, etc.
Scanning processes are dedicated to nothing but scanning, which results in more evenly distributed CPU usage. Slow (IPS) operations are taken care of in a dedicated process, which usually stays idle.
New FortiGuard web filtering category: Dynamic DNS (265680)
A new FortiGuard web filtering category has been added for Dynamic DNS under the Security Risk heading, to account for nearly half a million URLs of "Information Technology" rated by BlueCoat as "Dynamic DNS Host".
config webfilter profile
edit <profile>
config ftgd-wf
config filters
edit <id>
set category 88<--- New category, Dynamic DNS; number 88
Access Control Lists in DoS Policies (293399)
You can go to Policy & Objects > IPv4 Access Control List or Policy & Objects > IPv6 Access Control List and select an incoming interface and add a list of Firewall source and destination addresses and services and drop traffic that matches.
You can use the following CLI command to add an ACL:
config firewall acl
edit 1
set interface "port1"
set srcaddr "google-drive"
set dstaddr "all"
set service "ALL"
Websense web filtering through WISP (287757)
WISP is a Websense protocol that is similar in functionality to ICAP, it allows for URLs to be extracted by a firewall and submitted to Websense systems for rating and approval checking.
This feature provides a solution for customers who have large, existing, deployed implementations of Websense security products to replace their legacy firewalls with a Fortigate family, such that they are not forced to make a change to their web filtering infrastructure at the same time.
In order to use Websense's web filtering service, a WISP server per VDOM needs to be defined and enabled first. A Web filtering profile is then defined that enables WISP, which in turn is applied to a firewall policy.
When WISP is enabled, the FortiGate will maintain a pool of TCP connections to the WISP server. The TCP connections will be used to forward HTTP request information and log information to the WISP server and receive policy decisions.
config web-proxy wisp
set status enable
set server-ip 184.108.40.206
set max-connection 128
config webfilter profile
edit "wisp_only"
set wisp enable

- ISNIFF can now dump all HTML files if the dump-all-html CLI command is used (277793)
- Sender and recipient fields have been added to flow-based SMTP spam logs (269063)
- Browser Signature Detection added to Application Control profiles (279934)

It's an exciting time to shop for gems and jewelry in Thailand. As the gem cutting center of the world, Thailand is ideally placed to offer both the latest in high-quality fashion gems along along with the ever-popular classics. Recent advances in stone cutting techniques have created a global market for local designs. Thailand's talented jewelry crafters are cutting gemstones into unusual shapes.
Bangkok is the coloured gemstone capital of the world. The local stones are rubies, red and blue spinels, yellow and blue sapphires.
Gems markets operate around Chanthaburi, Kanchaburi, Mae Sai, and in Mae Sot on the Burmese borders where germs are cheaper than in Bangkok. However you'll need an expert eye to pick out the bargains and should be wary of illegally smugled gems.
In Phuket's Pearl Centre close to Phuket town there are numerous high quality pearls for sale. Ask your hotel for a trip around the Phuket island which ends at the Pearl Centre.
You are adviced to buy gems from a reputable gems shop. It is possible to have stones authenticated and graded (but not valued) at the Asian Institute of Gemological Sciences.

ICC wearing running thin with DRCFrom JEAN KASSONGO in Kinshasa, DRC
KINSHASA, (CAJ News) – THE Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Fatou Bensouda, has warned perpetrators of the deadly violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo they face trial from the court.
She said the critical situation in the Central African country had left her "deeply concerned" for a number of weeks now her patience could not be tested any longer.
Bensouda has subsequently deployed a delegation from her office to the DRC.
Amongst those the delegation will meet during its mission that ends tomorrow (Thursday) will be official representatives of the DRC, members of political parties, civil society and the press.
The goal of the mission is to reiterate Bensouda's call to all parties potentially involved irrespective of their official status or political affiliation to show restraint and ensure their supporters, sympathisers and agents refrained from committing violence.
Bensouda reiterated person who committed, ordered, incited, encouraged or contributed in any other way to the commission of crimes under the jurisdiction of the ICC is liable to prosecution.
"I will not hesitate to take all appropriate steps to prosecute those responsible in accordance with the principle of complementarity," she said.
Protests have characterized the failure to hold general elections initially set for May but postponed to April 2018.
Last month security forces and police shot dead 49 protesters in two days but government blamed opposition forces and banned all protests.
