|Debate No:
- "...an estimated 164 million people—more than half of the total US population—receive unneeded medical treatment over the course of a decade."
- "Allopathy is the leading cause of death, 783,936 1 every year in the USA alone."
- "New England Journal of Medicine study, an alarming one in four patients suffered observable side effects from the more than 3.34 billion prescription drugs filled in 2002."
Walter Last has a very interesting question-
He says- "The total number of iatrogenic deaths in the USA for 2001 is estimated to be 783,936. These were due to fatal drug reactions, medical error and unnecessary medical and surgical procedures. With this, the medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the United States. In comparison the 2001 heart disease death rate was 699,697 and the annual cancer death rate 553,251 (1).
-"Children who received broad-spectrum antibiotics were about 9 times more likely to suffer from asthma. A recent research paper confirmed dysbiosis as a main cause of asthma"
A newly published book "Modern Medicine is Killing You: Start Your Healthcare Revolution Now!" by Niraj Nijhawan, Kristyn Kalnes (Illustrator), may prove me unfortunately I still don't have the book.
there are a lot of examples when the drugs are banned but till then it harms up to thousands people
On the other hand homoeopathy is safer then allopathy even in case of prolonged treatment.
1- The homoeopathic medicines are tested on healthy human beings (no animal testing).
2- Homoeopathy has a definite law of nature, while allopathy don't have any fixed law.
3- On the rise of a disease allopathy need research than new medicines for newly arrived/evolved micro-organism. Homoeopathy is in always ready position.
4- Each of the modern medicine have side effects, so many times some dangerous side effects reveals after a prolonged exposure of drug, till then the drug is consumed by millions of people.
As such, his burden of proof is to show that modern medicine is irrevocably flawed and/or dangerous. Giving plenty of examples of where side-effects have been unexpected, or people have died of illnesses brought on by medical treatment, does not match this burden. It merely shows that we need to extremely careful about which medicines we allow to be used in hospitals.
My burden of proof, in addition to disproving any argument that my opponent provides in relation to the above, is to show that at best, homeopathy should be used in addition to modern medicine. As seen in my previous debate, I believe that when used exclusively, homeopathy is dangerous and life-threatening - but when used to complement modern medicine, it can be extremely useful, providing a level of pastoral care and placebo all too often not found in modern medicine. The main reason that I argued it should be banned was because often people take the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment in isolation to the effectiveness of modern medicine, and stop using the modern medicine - this is when danger creeps in. So long as we can all make the distinction and use them in tandem, there is no problem.
I shall briefly deal with the four points that my opponent raised in favour of exclusive homeopathy, in the order he presented them:
1- Modern medicine is also tested on healthy human beings, and animal testing is (thank God) being reduced significantly, hopefully soon to the point of not being used at all.
2- Modern medicine does have a "definite law of nature": what can be proven to work in curing disease/treating illness and injury/etc., should be used in treatment.
3- An excellent reason to use homeopathy to complement modern medicine. If there are specific moments - which are few and very far between, if indeed they exist at all - that modern medicine somehow "can't catch up", that would be the time to use homeopathy as a stopgap until modern medicine can be used once again.
4- Homeopathy also often has the side-effect of simply not working.
I await my opponent's response.
J_a_y forfeited this round.
For reasons why I believe homeopathy to be dangerous when used on its own, to the exclusion of modern medicine, feel free to read my previous debate on homeopathy: http://www.debate.org..., which also had this principle as a key issue.
Of course you are the choice as my opponent because of that debate but my thought is older.
I know the burden of proof of dangerous of modern medicine is mine and that I've done in my previous post, very interestingly you says "...does not match this burden." Without any reason or logic, just because you think, they don't match!
My opponent suggesting to the people "we need to extremely careful about which medicines we allow to be used in hospitals." The simplest conclusion of this suggestion is- Everyone should have to go for a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery along with Bachelor of pharmacy, before going to be a patient.
My opponent is just arguing with me rattle-headed he nothing knows about homoeopathy he wrote "homoeopathy is dangerous and life threatening" but again he don't have any proof or even a firm logic. He is presenting his thoughts and only thoughts.
Here is once more his imagination "...pastoral care and placebo all too often not found in modern medicine" there is no proof or any logic in support of his orgument.
My opponent want to say that (without any logic or proof) the danger of homoeopathy is only one - it doesn't work. While I'm presenting the lethal hazards of modern medicine with logics and proof, than why it should be replaced with homoeopathy which is safer?
Let's see the points upon which Logician stressing -
1 - He is thanking God for reducing animal testing it's OK But now scientist and drug companies are making us guinea pig for that we must pray 'Oh God please save us'. because now we are at more risk.
2- Then why they are so reluctant to homoeopathy?
3- Whole writing including this point shows that the Logician is a clod of homoeopathy.
In 1918 Spanish Flu the sucess rate of homoeopathy is 98%.
"Dean W. A. Pearson of Philadelphia collected 26,795 cases of influenza treated by homeopathic physicians with a mortality of 1.05%, while the average old school mortality is 30%." (http://www.nesh.com...)
24,000 cases of flu treated allopathically had a mortality rate of 28.2%
26,000 cases of flu treated homeopathically had a mortality rate of 1.05%.
The condition is still unchanged and will remains same, because the virus evolution is faster and unknown direction till the scientist discover a new drug for newly evolve virus a lot of people died.
the chase and run will never be stopped while homoeopathy has the treatment always ready.
4- I've been presented a lot of examples the Modern Medicine is dangerous/fatal each medicine has it's own definite side-effects while homoeopathy doesn't have any side-effect. In Logician's word - Homeopathy also often has the side-effect of simply not working.
My friend how will you justify the above example?
Remember one thing if The Newton wasn't born that doesn't mean the apple will not fall on the earth.
The reason that I didn't go into much depth in my previous round was that I presumed it obvious that the burden as presented (and accepted by my opponent) didn't match with the arguments that he provided.
Apparently, that clarity was not there - so allow me to make it clearer. My opponent is proposing the outright abolition of modern medicine as a method of treatment. Not merely that we should reduce its use, or take homeopathy seriously, but actually abolish any method apart from homeopathy.
Providing lots of scare stories about modern medicine does not match this burden, for the simple reason that it is equally possible to provide lots of scare stories about homeopathy - people who put their trust in homeopathic treatment, and for whom it didn't work. Take this example, which I quoted in my "ban homeopathy" debate:
"a woman had relied on homeopathy during a trip to Togo in West Africa, which resulted in a serious bout of malaria. This meant she had to endure two months of intensive care for multiple organ system failure. In this case, the placebo effect offered no protection. That's the harm." http://www.1023.org.uk...
In other words, my opponent has provided instances of modern medicine having bad side-effects, but I have provided instances of homeopathy doing the same. Playing "example tennis" (e.g. talking about homeopathy during the Spanish flu as if one examples proves a rule) does not constitute proof for this very reason.
Furthermore, my opponent took the position that even if homeopathy didn't work, that somehow makes it better than modern medicine. Notice that even my opponent's criticism focuses on how modern medicine has bad side-effects - in other words, the treatment works, but has unfortunate (and occasionally unpredictable) extra effects that downplay the effectiveness of the treatment. Nonetheless, the treatment works on a more rigorous scale - which is more than can be said for homeopathy.
Notice further that, despite making a grandiose claim in the first round that homeopathic treatment has a "definite law of nature", he did not bother to elaborate further on this assertion in his final round.
=== Defence of my previous arguments ===
It is a shame that, rather than use logic and reasoning, my opponent instead resorts to calling me a clod and "rattle-headed". I presumed that, given that he's clearly read my previous round on banning homeopathy, he would know precisely why I believe homeopathy to be dangerous. I did not elaborate further precisely because it was a throw-away comment not directly related to this debate. Rather than waste space on points not directly relevant to this debate, I will instead point readers to my previous debate here: http://www.debate.org....
But remember: showing homeopathy to be dangerous is not my burden here; it is merely to show that modern medicine need not be abolished, which I have already done. As I said in the previous round, the downsides of modern medicine means only that "we need to extremely careful about which medicines we allow to be used in hospitals." My opponent's suggestion that this entails that everyone should become a heavily-trained physician is facetious, and unnecessarily so. It only requires that medical licensing bodies take extreme care as to which medicines are allowed at hospital, not that every individual take such extreme caution.
My opponent's claims regarding the effectiveness of homeopathy, from his quoting of the Spanish flu and use of the Times of India article, show that homeopathy needs to be taken seriously. Congratulations to him on that. But in this debate, such sources are worthless - he argued that modern medicine should be replaced by homeopathy, which requires sufficient attack on the fundamentals of modern medicine, rather than simply quoting specific cases where it has failed.
For these reasons, he has not matched his burden, whereas I have done. Vote CON.

Doctors have many challenges to face as they are perennially surrounded by patients, diseases, hospital duties and over-extended or odd shift timings. Universally, doctor is considered to be a noble profession and respectable one at that, but a doctor also has to work under immense pressures, emotional strains and other physical challenges.
A regular physician like most of us at some point face will have to deal with personal situations such as important family affairs, family holidays, sickness or pregnancy that may force them to abandon medical duties. At the same time, a hospital or a healthcare facility is also constantly faced with emergency situations that demand all hands on deck round-the-clock. Therefore, every hospital, clinic or nursing home is compelled to hire locum tenens or substitute doctor in order to keep the staffing under control at all times.
In fact, locum doctors are the most valuable asset for the medical community because they provide quality medical care and act as a helping-hand in emergency situations when the medical facilities need them the most.
Unlike regular or permanent doctors, locum doctor jobs are also ideal career options for medical interns and graduates because they offer a wide array of medical exposure in varied medical specialties, work cultures and healthcare systems. Locum jobs are challenging and flexible, thus an increasing number of medical professionals have benefitted from these jobs, so whether one is looking for a family physicians position or in a hospital or in a clinic, locum jobs for doctors are available at all levels and in different healthcare systems.
In addition, being a locum doctor gives a medical professional the control over their working hours, location of work and choice of area of specialisation. Technically, locum positions are not restricted to general physicians but they are also extended to other fields of medical specialisations such as cardiology, neurology and many more.
Travelling can be an integral part of locum jobs, and these distinctive features are a boon for many dedicated medical professionals who are eager to expand their medical careers with loads of multi-cultural medical experiences. The fact that locum agencies in the UK recruit tens of thousands of locums from across the globe in various NHS hospitals, private clinics, nursing homes and other public hospitals speaks volume of the popularity of locum jobs.
Locating or getting a locum tenens job is a simple task as long as you are registered with one of the many reputable locum agencies. These agencies act as the middle man between locum tenens and medical facilities, and they also look after all the details pertaining to travel for locum tenens, accommodation and the nature of locum work.
Thus, maintaining a healthy locum doctor-agency relationship benefits both the parties, and it also increases the probability of getting recommendable employment opportunities and businesses or vice-versa.

The displayed trail starts at Boone's run, and is about a 3 mile hike in before hitting the loop. There is a campsite right at the intersection of the trails, as well as an AT shelter about 2 miles in. The trail is VERY wet and involves a lot of stream crossings, and overgrown trails. The trail has many variations, one being the AT, another being a light blue blaze that will take you up to Massanutten Ridge. I would recommended starting this hike from
a little further down Cub Run road, where there is an access trail that is only a mile and will take you to the same campsite.

Amazon has been known for redirecting the online shopping to the new dimensions of growth and integration. It is not just because of brand but number of products, quality, delivery and customer support which makes Amazon India as a pioneer in Indian ecommerce space. However there has been an inadvertent step which has been taken by company without any prior notice which has left all of the customers in shock. The delivery part of this brilliantly managed company has been altered and the company is now charging a few more bucks over the traditional zero delivery system. Hence there would not be further Free Delivery on products purchased via Amazon.
Here is the list of changes which company has decided to make :
Guaranteed delivery system has also been announced to be available for the eligible items listed on product pages. Have a look:
The step is very bold and brave indeed. But despite of knowing about the heavy competition from Flipkart and Snapdeal, why did Amazon took this step?
The answer is Forecasting. Amazon has forecasted one thing that it would not be possible to keep giving free delivery on the products less than Rs.499 for a longer run. So in order to avoid heavy loss of costumer base and money in future, Amazon took this step now for the long run. This would save the money on delivery and we can probably see more discounts on the products.
Anyways best of luck Amazon. For more details you can visit here.

Applications of the SWAT model typically involve delineation of a watershed into subwatersheds/subbasins that are then further subdivided into hydrologic response units (HRUs) which are homogeneous areas of aggregated soil, landuse, and slope and are the smallest modeling units used within the tool. In a standard SWAT application, multiple potential HRUs (farm fields) in a subbasin are usually aggregated into a single HRU feature. In other words, the standard version of the model combines multiple potential HRUs (farm fields) with the same landuse/landcover (LULC), soil, and slope, but located in different places within a subbasin (spatially non-unique), and considers them as one HRU. In this study, ArcGIS pre-processing procedures were developed to spatially define a one-to-one match between farm fields and HRUs (spatially unique HRUs) within a subbasin prior to SWAT simulations to facilitate input processing, input/output mapping, and further analysis at the individual farm field level. Model input data such as LULC, soil, crop rotation and other management data were processed through these HRUs. The SWAT model was then calibrated/validated for the Raccoon River watershed in Iowa for 2002 to 2010 and the Big Creek River watershed in Illinois for 2000 to 2003. SWAT was able to replicate annual, monthly and daily streamflow, as well as sediment, nitrate and mineral phosphorous within recommended accuracy in most cases. The one-to-one match between farm fields and HRUs created and used in this study is a first step in performing LULC change, climate change impact, and other analyses in a more spatially explicit manner. The calibrated and validated SWAT model was then used to assess agricultural scenario and climate change impacts on watershed water quantity, quality, and crop yields. Modeling impacts of agricultural scenarios and climate change on surface water quantity and quality provides useful information for planning effective water, environmental, and land use policies. Despite the significant impacts of agriculture on water quantity and quality, limited literature exists modeling the combined impacts of agricultural scenarios and climate change on crop yields and watershed hydrology. Here, SWAT, was used to model the combined impacts of five agricultural scenarios and three climate scenarios downscaled using eight climate models. These scenarios were implemented in a well calibrated SWAT model for the Raccoon River watershed (RRW), IA. We run the scenarios for the historical baseline, early-century, mid-century, and late-century periods. Results indicate that historical and more corn intensive agricultural scenarios with higher CO2 emissions consistently result in more water in the streams and greater water quality problems, especially late in the 21st century. Planting more switchgrass, on the other hand, results in less water in the streams and water quality improvements relative to the baseline. For all given agricultural landscapes simulated, all flow, sediment and nutrient outputs increase from early-to-late century periods for the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 climate scenarios. We also find that corn and switchgrass yields are negatively impacted under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios in the mid and late 21st century. Finally, various agricultural best management practice (BMP) scenarios were evaluated for their efficiency in alleviating watershed water quality problems. The vast majority of the literature on efficiency assessment of BMPs in alleviating water quality problems base their scenarios analysis on identifying subbasin level simulation results. In the this study, we used spatially explicit HRUs, defined using ArcGIS-based pre-processing methodology, to identify Nitrate (NO3) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) hotspots at the HRU/field level, and evaluate the efficiency of selected BMPs in a large watershed, RRW, using the SWAT model. Accordingly, analysis of fourteen management scenarios were performed based on systematic combinations of five agricultural BMPs (fertilizer/manure management, changing cropland to perennial grass, vegetative filter strips, cover crops and shallower tile drainage systems) aimed to reduce NO3 and TSS yields from targeted hotspot areas in the watershed at field level. Moreover, implications of climate change on management practices, and impacts of management practices on water availability and crop yield and total production were assessed. Results indicated that either implementation of multiple BMPs or conversion of an extensive area into perennial grass may be required to sufficiently reduce nitrate loads to meet the drinking water standard. Moreover, climate change may undermine the effectiveness of management practices, especially late in the 21st century. The targeted approach used in this study resulted in slight decreases in watershed average crop yields, hence the reduction in total crop production is mainly due to conversion of croplands to perennial grass.

It almost feels like I'm flying, my hair whipping around my face, and the exhilarating rush of the scenery whipping past in a kaleidoscope of colours as if I'm in a dream. I'm riding a feisty Appaloosa horse named Root Beer, cantering across a meadow that is springing back to life after being covered in snow all winter. I pull back on the reins, bring the horse to a halt, and take in a deep breath of the crisp, fresh, country air. I look up at the mountains, blanketed in green hemlock and fir trees, with a cap of snow clinging to the peak, and a cold April breeze hits me. I wish I'd thought to pack a warmer coat and shiver on top of Root Beer as my husband and I follow our guide through the trails near Big Bar Guest Ranch, about a 45 minute drive from Merritt, B.C.
Our guide leads us to a place that he calls devil's graveyard, a section where the trees grow close together and he doesn't normally bring riders to this part of the trail. My husband and I have owned horses for years and we ride confidently through this tangle of closely growing trees, taking care our legs don't smack into the trunks. We emerge from the woods and spot an old school bus parked in an enormous meadow and wonder how it got here. This reminds me of a scene out of Jon Krakauer's book Into the Wild where a young man lived his last days in a school bus abandoned in the Alaskan wilderness. Our guide tells us that the old bus is used in the winter months by snowmobilers as a place to rest and warm up. All too soon the ride is over and we return to the ranch, light a fire in the woodstove in our cabin, and warm up with hot chocolates. Later on we'll enjoy a ranch-style dinner in the main house, and afterwards we'll bundle up on the porch to admire the twinkling stars in the pitch black sky and watch the full moon cast its beams across the lake.
If you're looking to get out of the city for a few days, how about heading into British Columbia's cowboy country to relax at a guest ranch, often referred to as a dude ranch? Escape to the country to breathe in fresh air, admire how brilliant the stars are when they're not in competition with city lights, and enjoy a peaceful commune with nature – trees, pastures, meadow flowers, and wildlife. The highlight for many guests is the chance to try riding a horse, but ranches offer many other activities: wagon rides, rowing, canoeing, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, campfires, soaking in a hot tub, and just enjoying nature. Many dude ranches are located in the southern Interior and Cariboo regions of British Columbia, a few hours' drive from the Greater Vancouver Area.
Staying at a guest ranch can be an experience in itself with many types of accommodation to choose from: a rustic cabin, an Indian teepee, a hotel room, or lodging inside the main ranch house. Some ranches offer self-contained units with kitchens where guests prepare their own meals, and other ranches sell a meal plan package or provide dining room with a full service menu. Pack in your own food if doing your own cooking because most ranches are miles away from the nearest grocery store.
If you're traveling with family or a group of people, you'll need to research several ranches to find one that offers different activities that everyone can enjoy. If the intention is to ride a horse, avoid disappointment and check with the ranch about their policies regarding minimum age and maximum weight for riders, which may vary from ranch to ranch. Guest ranches must follow the conditions laid out by their insurance carrier and all riders have to sign a liability waiver.
Most guest ranches are open year round and cater to guests who enjoy sleigh rides, cross country skiing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, snow shoeing, and other winter activities.

Guwahati/13th June (Prag News Desk): Rs 300 crore scam for acquiring land for the development of the 40.75 km four lane highway under the NHAI from Janji to Demow has come under the scanner as Sivasagar Deputy Commissioner Narayan Konwar ordered an investigation.
The State government had release Rs 900 crores in two installments following a survey in 2011 and here, the scam is about the misappropriation of these funds. Many those to whom the remuneration had to be dispersed, the names were not even registered.
Incidentally, the NHAI had handed over charge to the state PWD (Highways) in January 2014. The decision to this effect was taken by the ministry of roads and transport, under which the project was implemented in November 2013.

Day 52 – Cowboy Poetry
The National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko is a week-long event, organized convention-style with performances and exhibits running simultaneously at 4 different locations. So, no matter how hard you tried, you would never be able to see everything, even if you stayed all week.
It is not limited to just poetry, though that is its namesake and mainstay. It includes anything that could be considered cowboy art. That means music, theater, film, still art, dancing, roping, cooking, and knot-tying.
Where else in the world can you recite open-mic cowboy poetry, take a 4-day rawhide-braiding workshop, and listen to a saloon piano player, all while blending perfectly into the crowd despite your handlebar mustache?
The workshops and a few of the bigger performances require admission tickets, which are often sold out long before the week begins. Admission to the vast majority of performances requires only a day pass—or basic sales skills. My first day in Elko, I attended 3 sessions without even realizing that a day pass was required. Ignorance may be bliss, but it is also confidence, and no one questioned whether I should be allowed to go in because I thought it was perfectly OK to attend a "free" performance. The next morning, after I found out about the requirement, I had to talk my way in to one musical performance. I was late, and did not have time to travel to the convention center, where the day passes were sold. The security guards, who were female and looked to be about 15 years old, let me through the door when I promised to buy a day pass immediately after the show—which I did.
The show that I talked my way into was one I definitely did not want to miss: a performance by The Gimbles. The Gimbles are a western swing band consisting of 3 generations of the Gimble family, including the patriarch Johnny Gimble. I had not heard of The Gimbles as a band, but definitely knew of Johnny Gimble from his time with Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys.
Like most 20-something urban dwellers, I am a big fan of depression-era western swing music. Groups like the Texas Playboys were essentially jazz bands, from the big band era, who played dance music using fiddles, steel guitars, rhythm pianos, and mandolins. They played live shows every day and made recordings almost as an afterthought. Making a record, after all, meant that the song would be played over and over exactly the same way, and these bands played mostly improvisations. As one of The Gimbles stated, they had been playing one song for decades and had "never played it the same way twice"—to which Johnny replied, "heck, we've never played it the same way once." One of my favorite examples of this kind of improv is the Leon McAuliffe song "What the Hell", an instrumental in which the band leader, halfway through the song, mutters "what the hell are we playing?"
Though fun to listen to, these bands are even more fun to watch. Mostly, this is because they are obviously having so much fun performing. You might think that 60 years of playing the same songs—improvised or not—might get old after a while. But Johnny Gimble, at 79, still seemed to be having a blast on stage, laughing and even attempting to dance a little jig. Last I heard, the surviving members of the Texas Playboys still get together to play concerts once in a while. During their down time at such events, band members will often gather outside their RVs and pass the time in jam sessions—because playing music is just what they love to do.
One might wonder whether each person has something they were born to do—something they are hard-wired to be good at and enjoy doing. For Johnny Gimble and friends, it is clear that they were born to be musicians. And if someone does what they were born to do, it never gets old for them, and they never willingly retire. Why would they, when they are having so much fun?
Some of you may be wondering, what is cowboy poetry?
It is not necessarily poetry written by cowboys, because a cowboy could conceivably write a poem that was not cowboy poetry, just as a non-cowboy could write a cowboy poem.
Basically, cowboy poetry is any poem that deals with cowboy life. It is usually traditional poetry, with rhythm and rhyme: if Robert Frost had lived in Nevada instead of the Northeast, he probably would have been a cowboy poet.
As far as what constitutes "cowboy life", the poetry session titles give a good indication of the topics: The Animal Kingdom, Reverence for the Land, Reflections on the Ranch, Tearjerkers, Women on the Ranch, Rodeo Wranglers, Horses in the Blood, and Cowboy Humor are all typical listings in the poetry gathering schedule.
There are some themes that I have noticed are common in cowboy poetry, including:
Besides the standard cowboy poetry, I also attended one session on Australian poetry—which was extremely similar, except it talked more about sheep and did so in a funny accent. And at one open mic session, a couple of commercial fisherwomen sang sea shanties and talked about how the cowboy poetry gathering had inspired a fledgling fisherman poetry gathering somewhere along the coast. Which, I suppose, makes sense. There would be some basic similarities between those who make their living off the land and those who make their living off the ocean.
Pam and her family made sure I was fed very well while in Elko, and insisted that I not pay for it. I argued a little bit against them paying for everything, but was unsuccessful. If I am honest with myself, that was probably my goal—to be unsuccessful in the argument.
On Friday evening, they took me to The Star, a steakhouse and one of the Basque restaurants. Pam described its location as being "between the courthouse and the whorehouses"—and that is, quite literally, where it is located. The food there was very good and very, very plentiful. Many restaurants will bring out communal bread or salad while you wait for your food. The Star brings out bread, salad, soup, spaghetti, and French fries, before you get your giant steak. It has now become one of my favorite restaurants.
It is the favorite for a lot of visitors. With the town's population swollen by the poetry gathering, we got there early to avoid a long wait for a table. Because we got there early, the wait was only 2 1/2 hours.
We also visited the Western Folklife Center's small museum. One of the exhibits showed the different equipment used by cattlemen in the far west. As I learned from one of the film screenings at the gathering, there is a dividing line in the desert that separates two different styles of ranching. East of the line, we have the familiar "cowboys" who carry grass ropes sometimes called "lassos". West of the line, ranch hands are referred to "buckaroos", and they use thin braided rawhide ropes called "riatas". I was surprised that I had never heard of this difference in gear and terminology before.
Another exhibit featured the different style of French cowboys, who were special guests at this year's gathering. The French forgo ropes entirely and use long, metal-tipped sticks called "tridents" to trip up cattle. Going to a cowboy convention, telling everyone that you are French and use a trident to rope cattle? Not cool.
Back at The Star, we mingled through the crowded bar area while still waiting on a table. I spotted a man sitting in a corner who looked very familiar. He looked like one of the cowboy poets I had seen on stage. I was not completely sure if he was one of the performers, or if he just looked the part: besides his outfit, he sported the prototypical grey bushy mustache. Facial hair is very common among cowboy poets. It is not universal, but that is mostly because not all of the poets are men. Two of the more interesting performers I watched were a 15-year-old boy (in his 5th year performing at the event) and poet widow in her eighties. Still, this mustachioed man looked very much like someone I had seen on the main stage earlier that afternoon.
I walked over to where he sat waiting.
"Howdy," I said. "Are you one of the performers here for the poetry gathering?"
"Yes. Joel Nelson," he introduced.
"Kevin McConaghy. I thought I had seen you on stage."
According to his bio in the poetry gathering program, Joel Nelson is a Vietnam veteran, Forestry and Range Management graduate, custom saddle builder, and working cowboy, besides being a grammy-nominated poet. Sort of a range renaissance man, and it showed in our conversation: he talked about the importance of my hometown Flint Hills to the study of range management practices, and knew some ag and forestry professors from my alma mater Oklahoma State. Joel himself was from Alpine, Texas, "200 miles southeast of El Paso", in the Big Bend area. It was a part of the state I had never been to.
"You would like it there," Joel assured. "It's high country. Real pretty. Great cow country."
I asked Joel the question that I really wanted answered: how does a working cowboy become a poet?
"It's interested me since I was a kid," he said. "My mom would sing around the ranch and read poetry, and I was just always fascinated by words."
Perhaps what he was saying was that it was something he was born to do.

LIBA is nothing short of an experience of a lifetime. Students generally have a great time during their stay - balancing academics and learning to have fun while at it.

Table tennis, or ping pong as it's fondly called is loved by kids and adults alike. It's an easy to play, low impact sport that has multiple benefits for its participants. Table Tennis has been an Olympic sport since 1988. It is the second largest played sport in the world and is also referred to as the life-time sport, because it can be played your entire life!! Para Table Tennis has been part of the Paralympics since its inception in 1960. Here are 6 reasons why your child should play table tennis.
1. Early social bonding
Whether it's played in schools, community centers or at home, table tennis is a great tool for bonding amongst friends and family members. Communication and social skills are improved as children play games and learn to play the sport. From my experience as a coach, I have noticed that as children are exposed to the world of table tennis and sharing the same interest they become more open to socializing. Playing with the family is always fun and can bring members closer as more quality time can be spent on the table.
2. Physical development
Playing table tennis frequently is a great way to stay in shape and improve hand eye coordination. Studies done in different parts of the world have shown that table tennis aids in the strengthening of bones and muscle development. The repetitive and multidirectional movements promote your child's agility and flexibility.
Schools around the world implement this low impact, indoor sport into their Physical Education programs because of its many benefits to children.
3. Good for the brain
According to Dr. Wendy Suzuki, professor of neuroscience and psychology at New York University, "In ping pong, we have enhanced motor functions, enhanced strategy functions and enhanced long-term memory functions."
Table tennis works parts of the brain that are responsible for movement, fine motor skills and strategy – areas that could be growing stronger with each match. This makes table tennis ideal for your child's young and developing brain.
4. It's inexpensive
Compared to other sports, table tennis is a relatively cheap sport. The equipment needed to start is fairly inexpensive and can last a very long time. Apparel consist of tees, shorts and sneakers. Although, students seeking to play at a professional level will see a substantial price increase for equipment and playing gear.
5. Easy to play
Table tennis can be played by anyone no matter size, age, or gender. Its simple rules makes its easy to learn. A favorite amongst seniors and paraplegic players, table tennis is the most popular racket sport in the world. Its ability to stimilate mental alertness makes it a plus for all ages.
6. It's fun
Whether played recreationally or professionally, it's easy to learn but difficult to master – the game offers a fun factor unrivaled by no other. Ping pong, the recreational game is enjoyed by over 20 million Americans who play mostly in garages and basements. Table Tennis, the Olympic sport has over 300 million active members in national associations worldwide.

In Russian history many undertakings, which later on turned into geopolitical, economic, scien-tific achievements of world significance, were made by fanatic-enthusiasts, very often with absolute indifference of our state and in the best case with passive support.
In connection with this in mind comes one real episode from life of our remarkable compatriot, outstanding polar researcher, whose 100anniversary was celebrated by the whole scientific Arctic and Antarctic society (on our initiative). In far 30ties in connection with USA pretension to occupy Wrangle Island there appeared necessity in colonization of this island. In 1925 Georgiy Alekseevich appealed to state official with the following suggestion:
«...Dear Sir!
In early June of this year I appealed to you by telegraph with request to send me to work on Kamchatka. In late October on my arrival to Khabarovsk orally I repeated my request about sending me to the North. The question was left without answer. It seems to me that my re-quest left an impression of action, made carelessly, fed by child's romanticism. I want to prove you that my decision is deeply considered.
I have decided to devote my life to research of far Northeast long ago. Now the question about Wrangle Earth colonization is being solved. The aim of colonization is not so much of economic inter-est, but politic. And there also exists necessity of natural—geographic researches in this district. These tasks can be carried out by director of island, who should not only possess definite moral quali-ties, but also should understand social and political questions and also be ready for scientific research work.
It is hardly possible to send there famous scientist, taking into account office character of such people and also all difficulties of forthcoming long trip...
Territories of our North and Northeast are beyond only Wrangle's Earth. The region will demand much time and efforts, therefore it is reasonably to send there a person, who has the whole life be-fore him, and who is able to cope with not one Wrangle's Earth. All above mentioned makes me (again reminding that my decision is well-considered and predetermines the plan of my life) once again appeal to you with request about nomination me as a candidate for work on Wrangle's Earth...(From letter of G.A.Ushakov to representative of Russia's Trade Commissariat of Far East, Andrianov, December of 1925)»
That is how only enthusiasm of unknown in that time person, responsibility, which Ushakov was not afraid of and intuition of officials led to tremendous success of Russia in the Arctic pioneering. Certainly we couldn't leave regardless such an unique person in the Arctic pioneering history as G. A. Ushakov, In February of 2001 there was the centenary of honored polar explorer, doctor of geo-graphical sciences, first governor and explorer of Wrangle's Island, pioneer and explorer of the Northern Earth - the latest largest geographic discovery of the 20th century. Together with the family of the outstanding polar explorer we took the initiative of anniversary celebration. Already in 2000 the organizing committee began first measures on celebrations. Program of 2000-2001 included several expeditions to the Northern Earth, Ushakov' Island, Wrangle's Island, Chukotka, Ushakov's mother-land, readings and conferences, archives exhibitions, shooting of documentary film, reissue of books, issue of anniversary stamps, envelopes, etc.
It is pleasant to realize that our initiative was not left without attention of the President's Ad-ministration and Russia's government. Academic part of the program was held in Russian Geographic Society and Academy of Sciences. Very different ministries and departments, which deal with the Arc-tic in their work, supported and took part within their powers in program suggested by us.
