Candidate gets sound cut off for calls not to vote early
On 5 September the addresses of candidates for deputies in Vitsebsk Chyhunachny constituency # were televised by Vitsebsk regional TV on Lad channel.
The address of the regime's henchman Siarhei Siamashka went without problems. The second to appear was an oppositional candidate Andrei Levinau. But during his speech the sound disappeared 'suddenly'. It is hard to believe that it was an accident. Moreover, the address of the next candidate in this constituency, Ihar Kanyhin, was broadcast without any problems, the campaign Human Rights activists for free elections infroms.
What words of the former police captain Levinau were prevented from being broadcasted? The answer is simple: the sound disappeared nit e moment when the candidate addressed voters with a request not to take part in early vote. The candidate said: 'I urge you not to take part in the early vote. The procedure of early vote does not guarantee the principle of transparency: for the entire 5 days the ballot box is not under control of the district elections commission, observers and mass media since 5 pm each day'.

Dr. Ashita Tolwani is a name well known amongst residents, students, and faculty at UAB; she's the attending you want around when a patient is in need of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).
Dr. Tolwani was recently featured in the December 27, 2012 edition of the NEJM as the author of the Clinical Therapeutics Review article, "Continuous Renal- Replacement for Acute Kidney Injury". She is a life-long UAB supporter having completed medical school, residency in Internal Medicine, and fellowship in combined Nephrology and Critical Care training all at UAB.
She has been on faculty here since 1999. She completed an 8 year stint as the Nephrology Fellowship director and is currently the Associate Director for ICU Nephrology. Along with her numerous teaching commitments she continues to be an avid researcher in the clinical uses of CRRT as it relates to acute kidney injury and has made UAB a pioneering institution in the use of citrate anticoagulation for CRRT. If you don't find her rounding with the Nephrology consult service or giving lectures throughout the world you may be able to find her in her office developing routines for the numerous Zumba classes she teaches throughout the community.
Where did you find your interest in combining Nephrology and Critical Care medicine?
Initially I just wanted to do Critical Care but Dr. (David) Warnock felt I would be well suited as a Nephrologist. I asked if I could do a combined Nephrology and Critical Care fellowship, which had not been done before. Doing a combined fellowship allowed me the opportunity to handle a little bit of everything in internal medicine and still be able to do many procedures that attracted me to critical care in the first place. With this I have been able to find my academic niche in ICU Nephrology that has allowed for many new career opportunities.
What are your current areas of research?
My research focus is on the clinical aspects of CRRT in the treatment of acute kidney injury in the ICU and more specifically with the use of citrate anticoagulation. UAB has been a pioneering research institution in CRRT and we currently have 25 CRRT machines providing over 5,000 patient days of treatment a year. There is even a group in Australia that has named their anticoagulation protocol, "The Modified Alabama Protocol" based on protocol that was developed at UAB.
When you are not working what do you like to do as a hobby?
My first passion is dance. I completed my honors thesis in college on classical Indian dance and have even danced professionally. Right now I am currently teaching Zumba at a couple of places around Birmingham. There are many days when I close my office door and work on my Zumba routines after hours.
What is the best part about working at UAB?
The ability to be innovative at UAB is unprecedented and it is something that does not occur anywhere else. There is also an amazing feeling of collaboration here as well. Everything that I have done here has been a group effort. At UAB if there is something that you are willing to do there is a way to get it done.
Who were the people that most influenced you during your training at UAB?
Dr. Edwin Rutsky is someone that comes to mind who was a big inspiration to me. Not only was he a great clinician but tolerated nothing but the highest level of care for patients. Dr. Cecil Coghlan, in cardiology, taught me how to really focus on the patient and improved my clinical exam skills. Dr. Kirk Avent, Dr. Michael Saag, and Dr. Pete Pappas taught me critical thinking skills, as well as many other attendings in the Infectious Disease Department. Dr. Mike Waldrum (now CEO of the University of Arizona Health Network), who developed the 5 levels of DNR care in the ICU at UAB, was also very influential to me during my critical care training and taught me how to tell a patient or family member bad news in a very direct but professional manner All of these physicians were great role models and taught me compassion, patience, and humility, and the importance of continuous self-examination and self-improvement. They also taught me to be strong, vocal and proactive in patient care.
What is one story from residency that you do not mind sharing?
Housestaff still talk about a "rumor" of an intern getting stuck with a needle from an HIV patient at Cooper Green Hospital years ago. It wasn't a rumor but a true story; and the person who "got" stuck, was me. It was Christmas Day of my intern year, and after admitting a patient with HIV, I stuck my finger with an infected needle while obtaining an arterial blood gas. I tried to re-cap the needle after I obtained the blood, and the needle went through the cap into my gloved finger. My upper level resident immediately placed my bleeding finger under running water and called Dr. Saag that very minute, who spoke to me on the phone and calmed me down. I was started on AZT, which I had a hard time tolerating due to significant side effects. Fortunately, I was not infected. It was the most frightening time of my life. However, it made me stronger as a person, and I felt equipped to handle anything after that! I have very many bitter-sweet memories of Cooper Green and felt that Cooper Green really enhanced my clinical skills and provided a great learning experience.
On a lighter note, I was also in the last group that was able to experience an overnight residents' retreat at Camp Dismukes where I honed my golf cart driving skills, but I will leave it at that!

It was only a matter of time before a film that depicts the operation that resulted in the death of Osama Bin Laden would hit the silver screen. However when production started on a Mark Boal and Kathryn Bigelow Bin Laden film, one that was scheduled for release just before this week's election, political waves were made. That film, Zero Dark Thirty, has been since moved to a January 2013 release date.
So in comes The Weinsten Company and National Geographic with their own film about the events that occurred on May 2, 2011.
Their film, Seal Team Six, will debut on the National Geographic Channel tonight at 8 PM, two days before the Presidential Election.
I attended a premiere screening of the film at the Newseum where I met director John Stockwell who assured me that politics did not play in the making of this film.
"Honestly nobody was thinking about the politics," Stockwell told me on the red carpet, "[Producer Nicolas Chartier] is French- he doesn't vote, doesn't care- just wanted to make a kick-ass action movie… our screenwriter is a registered Republican.. the political fallout has all been unexpected."

Every season in American idol, sports books take the chance that they may have to pay out big when the competition is over. Odds makers create lines when the live shows start, but by the end, it is usually one of the contestants that started with long odds that wins the competition.
Several years ago, Kris Allen came from being a 60/1 long shot to the new American Idol. For those who jumped on the bandwagon early enough, a large pay day was awaiting at the end. The same thing occurred when Lee DeWyze won last year.
This season, it is James Durbin that is picking up steam as the competition heads for home. Durbin was not a favorite when the odds were released, holding odds of 17/1. Those odds have now shrunk to 2.5/1, and some analysts believe Durbin may be the favorite in coming weeks.
"If he continues to impress the judges with his performances, and America continues to keep him out of the bottom three, James will likely be the favorite heading into the final couple of shows," said Analyst Brad Dawkins. "It will be an interesting stretch run."
Scotty McCreery is currently the betting favorite, with even money odds. McCreery has used his country rasp to accumulate millions of fans across the US. McCreery started out the competition as a 10/1 choice.
Lauren Alaina, one of only two women left in the competition, is the third choice at sports books. Alaina currently has odds of 3/1. Alaina has gotten much of her support from the youth of America, with adults leaning towards Jacob Lusk, a 14/1 choice.
Casey Abrams, saved by the judges in an earlier show, has been strong since America voted him off and the judges let him back in the competition. Abrams is a 12/1 choice, and Haley Reinhart is the long shot of the final six, with odds of 15/1.

WESTERN HILLS (FOX19) - Police say shots were fired outside of Western Hills High School on Friday night.
A report of gunfire was made around 9:15 p.m.
Western Hills was playing a sold out basketball game against Withrow High School on Friday evening. Heavy police enforcement was already at the school, due to a sold out game.
Police say the suspect was not inside the school, but rather walked onto school grounds and fired shots outside.
Several people were already standing outside at the time, and game attendees were also exiting the gym as the game ended.
According to authorities, the sound of gunfire caused a lot of confusion and panic for the people leaving the game, considering the events on Friday morning in Connecticut.
Police confirmed that no one was injured in the incident.
First responders chased the suspect, but lost him near Glenway Avenue heading towards the McDonald's.
Officers say the suspect was wearing black clothing and is still at large.

'First, do no harm.' This guiding principle of medical care should become a guiding principle for our elected officials as well. And there is no better place to apply this principle than energy legislation now being cobbled together for consideration by the Senate.
Unfortunately, the guiding principle behind many of the proposals by Senate Democrats up to now seems to be 'let's do something.' What senators need to keep in mind is that doing the wrong thing is worse than doing nothing at all.
Senators need to reject environmental extremists who seem to find something wrong with every existing form of energy. In their zeal to reach the energy age of the Jetsons, some seem determined to throw us back to the age of the Flintstones.
While restrictions on carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions may sound like a good idea at first glance, in reality they would strike a devastating blow against the American people. Carbon restrictions would slap billions of dollars in hidden taxes on every American family and business, wipe out millions of jobs, raise the costs of gasoline and other forms of energy, and accelerate the exodus of businesses and jobs abroad.
A cap and trade system like the one passed by the House and supported by some Democrats in the Senate is based on a complex and confusing scheme to pick the pockets of families and job creating businesses. The scheme would enable Wall Street speculators to make fortunes trading emissions permits in a giant casino, and raise the cost of many types of energy and the products produced with that energy.
If Rube Goldberg were alive today and was asked to design an energy tax, he'd be hard pressed to outdo the supporters of the Kerry-Lieberman bill that fell flat in the Senate and the Waxman-Markey bill that passed in the House.
A poll conducted earlier this month of 6000 registered voters in 10 states by Harris Interactive for the American Petroleum Institute found that 64% opposed higher taxes on the US oil and natural gas industry. There was no leading question designed to get any preconceived result. The poll simply asked, 'do you support or oppose raising taxes on the oil and gas industry?'
Voters in the poll said the two most important issues the federal government should deal with are the economy and creating jobs, a finding consistent with other recent national polls. These two issues should be paramount in any legislation taken up by the Senate.
The Kerry-Lieberman bill was abandoned, for now at least, by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid because senators understood that with an election less than four months away, voting for massive new energy taxes, no matter how well disguised, would be hazardous to their political health.
Carbon restrictions would result in all pain and no gain. That's because if global issues like carbon emissions are to be addressed, the only effective way to do so is to address them globally.
No matter what unilateral actions the US takes, carbon emissions will grow from India, China and other rapidly modernising nations. Since everyone on Earth shares the same common atmosphere, the carbon emitted abroad has the same impact as carbon emitted at home.
There are many steps the Senate can consider to encourage energy conservation, improve energy efficiency, and increase research on new energy sources.
My industry favours the use of alternative sources of fuels and materials that are new being developed, once they become commercially viable. However, we oppose special subsidies for non-competitive energy sources that are costing American tax payers billions of dollars today and could cost far more tomorrow. Uncle Sam's bank account is already overdrawn.
We favour an even playing field, with the American people choosing by their purchasing decisions which forms of energy and which products best meet their needs at an affordable rate.
While it's important for Congress and the administration to focus on America's energy policy for tomorrow, they shouldn't ignore the energy needs and realities of today.

GLEN ELLYN – After months of survey and study, the Glen Ellyn Aquatic Initiative believes it has the numbers to show a new indoor pool in the village would be a beneficial – and profitable – undertaking.
The volunteer organization hired consultant Isaac Sports Group to assess the feasibility of creating the indoor complex after raising more than $20,000 in donations to fund the study in July 2013.
Group President Stu Isaac presented the findings Wednesday to a crowd of more than 50 members of the public at the Main Street Recreation Center, and said the complex could serve as a beacon for Glen Ellyn.
Consultants showed three plans, all of which include an addition to the north side of Ackerman Sports and Fitness Center and are projected to cost several million dollars.
Isaac said an August 2012 survey showed households viewed adult fitness programs, swimming opportunities and learn-to-swim programs as top community parks and recreation needs.
Currently, the only Glen Ellyn Park District swimming facility is outdoor Sunset Pool, which is open during the summer months. Indoor swim options in Glen Ellyn, such as HealthTrack Sports Wellness and the B.R. Ryall YMCA, require memberships for general use.
By adding to Ackerman, he said, the district could offer a more well-rounded experience for patrons and provide space for the Glenbard swimming co-op, as well as the Gator swim team.
"If this is able to be done, you're going to get one chance in this generation, in this lifetime," Isaac said. "You've got to look ahead – what are you going to need in 30 years?"
Each plan includes two pools, one for activities such as swim team practices and scuba lessons and a smaller warm fitness and therapy pool.
The first of these would comprise a single-story facility that would add 22,551 square feet, as well as a classroom, offices and locker rooms. This plan could accomodate limited classes and swim meets.
The second would be a two-story, 36,459-square-foot addition, with seating for 400 spectators, a bulkhead to allow for flexibility and a concession area.
The third would total 53,472 square feet and offer facilities such as a rock wall, which could attract swimmers and bring economic activity to the village.
Estimates from Isaac indicate the complex could generate up to $1 million per year for the village if the district selected the second option and $4.5 million if it chose the third.
Issac's investment projections for the three plans were $7.3 million, $11.4 million and $16.1 million, respectively.
The complex would likely need to be funded at least partially by donations or a borrowing program, said district President Jay Kinzler.
"We don't have that kind of money sitting around in the bank," said Vice President Gary Mayo.
However, Isaac said a well-run aquatic center could be profitable.
He said cost estimates likely err high and include top-of-the-line filtration systems, staffing, maintenance and marketing.
Both the two larger options would be profitable, he said, with a projected surplus of $35,682 for the second option and $142,504 for the third. The first would also be in the black if the typical membership sales spike after such a project was taken into account.
"A lot of people have this perception that aquatic centers – pools – always run a deficit," Isaac said. "Well, poorly designed, poorly programmed, poorly managed pools run deficits."
Initiative President Rob Piper stressed none of the plans are final.
The district board will vote on accepting them in its overall strategic plan April 15.

THE rural life imagined by Martin Ritt, in films like ''Norma Rae'' and ''Conrack'' and ''Sounder'' and now ''Cross Creek,'' doesn't have much to do with rural life as anyone else knows it. But it has its own sort of power and integrity, Hollywood-style. In their simple log cabins decorated with carefully selected antiques, living in remote swamps that somehow produce florist-caliber house plants, Mr. Ritt's characters live out bucolic fantasies that might, in the hands of any less dedicated director, seem pure hokum. Somehow, Mr. Ritt manages to use this very artificiality in the service of an optimism that is very much his own.
Mr. Ritt may not bring anything like realism to these tales - even when, as in the case of ''Cross Creek,'' they are indeed based on real events. But he does endow them with passion and sincerity. ''Cross Creek'' may be set in a remote Florida bayou, but it's so full of familiar faces that you may begin suspecting that even the fawn in the cast has appeared in a road-show production of ''Bambi.'' Nevertheless, these ingredients all work on their own terms. And the film's central performance has a strength and sweetness that transcends any artificiality there may be to its setting.
Mary Steenburgen plays Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, author of ''The Yearling,'' in this adaptation of the author's memoir. The film is set in 1928, and it begins with Marjorie's abrupt decision to leave her husband and move to an extremely remote orange grove, where she expects to live in utter isolation while concentrating on her writing. Though the peculiarities of this decision are left unexplained - it's not clear why she has chosen this spot, or what her former life was like, or how she is supporting herself - the strangeness of Marjorie's ambition is compelling enough to carry the first section of the film. Miss Steenburgen is almost entirely taciturn at first, but the mere spectacle of her setting up shop in this extremely forbidding locale holds its own fascination.
The house she has bought, which at first is seen to be a ramshackle hut with a foot-deep coating of cobwebs, is quickly refurbished; in fact, Marjorie apparently paints, cleans and patches the place all on her own, pausing only to listen sleeplessly to the weird noises of the swamp every evening. There's an obvious satisfaction in watching the graceful, fine-boned Miss Steenburgen hard at work at these somewhat improbable chores.
And then, in almost no time, the seemingly uninhabited swamp brings forth a devoted servant (Alfre Woodard), several farm workers to help with the oranges, and a family of neighbors. These simple, backwoods folk include Rip Torn as the hard-drinking Pa, Cary Guffey (''Close Encounters of the Third Kind'') as a little, harmonica-playing boy in overalls, and Dana Hill (''Shoot The Moon'') as the young girl whose pet fawn, Flag, will go on to ''Yearling'' fame.Continue reading the main story
A local hotel operator is played by Peter Coyote, who appeared as the mysterious fellow with the keys in ''E.T.'' When Marjorie settles down to her writing and is visited by her editor, Max Perkins, it's by no means inconsistent to find him played by Malcolm McDowell, Miss Steenburgen's real-life husband, whose American accent is no less plausible than most of the others' Southern drawls. The casting is no less anomalous than anything else about the movie.
The individual elements of ''Cross Creek'' may seem absurd at times - like the impoverished young mother who has no water for bathing and wears a dress made from potato sacks though she still appears to have a tidy manicure - but the essential romanticism that unites them is not. Unlike so many films about writers at work, this one doesn't aspire to anything gritty. If Miss Rawlings, instead of pacing and fretting and chain-smoking, is shown sitting all day and all night typing eagerly, looking beautiful in a bare nightgown with her hair streaming down her back, the image is no less memorable for its loveliness. ''Cross Creek'' means only to offer an utterly idealistic portrait of a woman who knows what she wants, sets out to accomplish it and overcomes every obstacle. Her triumphs, however contrived or sentimentalized, really do feel like triumphs here.
Much of the credit for that is attributable to Miss Steenburgen, who manages to seem more authentically of the place and of the period than anything or anyone else here. Severely beautiful in the early scenes that establish the character's sternness and reserve, she later radiates a pride and diligence that sometimes give way to delightful mischief.
Miss Steenburgen eloquently embodies the self-sufficiency and determination that ''Cross Creek'' means to eulogize, but she does more idiosyncratic things, too. It's a measure of the performance's appeal, and the movie's singular notion of folksiness, that some of Miss Steenburgen's most entertaining moments come in a scene in which she admits to having shot a neighbor's pig. However little authentic light this scene casts on country living, it does say a lot about the film's farfetched but unmistakable charm.
''Cross Creek'' is rated PG (''Parental Guidance Suggested''). It contains occasional harsh language.

MASCOUTAH, Ill. (AP) — The U.S. Department of Defense says one of four Air Force members killed in a weekend plane crash in Afghanistan was a pilot who had been stationed at Scott Air Force Base in southwestern Illinois.
The department says 28-year-old Capt. Brandon Cyr of Woodbridge, Va., died in Saturday's crash of an Air Force MC-12 aircraft.
The cause of the crash is under investigation. The Pentagon says there were no reports of enemy activity in the area at the time of the crash.
Cyr was an instructor pilot and member of the 906th Air Refueling Squadron within the 375th Air Mobility Wing based at Scott. The base also says Cyr flew with members of the Illinois Air National Guard's 126th Air Refueling Wing.

This week I wish to draw attention to the notion of gratitude. For years I have taught what has become referred to as the four-corner philosophy for self-fulfillment. Those four corners include forgiveness, gratitude, self-responsibility, and service; but today I wish to focus on gratitude. Specifically, what is the purpose of having a gratitude attitude?
Gratitude is something that typically is the topic of pastors and counselors. However, there is a growing body of science that is beginning to show the many benefits available as a result of a gratitude attitude.
Gratitude is an emotion that reduces anxiety and ameliorates stress. Gratitude can enable the optimal operation of your endocrine and immune system. Studies have shown that grateful people are less materialistic and therefore less disturbed by what is called, "Keeping up with the Joneses." There is less enmity and envy in the life of a grateful person when compared to similar people who do not practice gratitude as a part of their lives.
Gratitude can be as simple as counting blessings instead of burdens and this leads to a stronger subjective sense of well-being. Gratitude has also been shown to have a positive correlation with wellness, to say nothing of the improvement in everything from relationships to finances. The simple truth is that from a purely pragmatic perspective, a gratitude attitude leads to a happier life.
That said, there are also some moral implications derived from gratitude, as most religious and spiritual leaders suggest. I mean, in a broader sense, is it immoral to be ungrateful?
Now admittedly gratitude is often used as a moral motive to encourage pro-social behavior. For example, failing to recognize or appreciate a gift is deemed more than just unacceptably rude—it's often viewed as immoral.
Studies have shown that people are much more likely to express gratitude when their feelings are public. So gratitude takes on all sorts of social implications. Does that mean that it's ethical for a culture to expect gratitude in order for one to maintain a social standing in a society?
We are all enculturated in ways that demand reciprocity in one way or another. I suppose the question of the ethical merits to any system that so imposes rights and duties on each of us that have nothing to do with lawfulness, is another subject. For now, the benefits to both the individual and society at large have been shown to demonstrate the purely practical side inherent in cultivating gratitude. As such, I choose to be a bit of a Pollyanna. To that end, I begin each day with a "Thank you, thank you, thank you." Then I smile—a big good old smile, because I know that my brain doesn't know that I might be faking that smile. No—the brain simply responds to the facial expression and releases endorphins, the bodies own natural opiates, and guess what—I feel better right away. In my mind, that's the real meaning of the phrase, "Fake it 'till you make it."
As always, thanks for the read and I'd love your thoughts on this one.

UN, Iraq agree on plan to move Iranian exiles from Camp Ashraf
BAGHDAD (AP) ' The United Nations and the Iraqi government have signed an agreement to relocate several thousand Iranian exiles living in a camp in northeastern Iraq, the U.N.'s office in Baghdad announced Sunday.
But it's not clear yet whether the camp's residents have signed off on the deal.
In a statement late Sunday, the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq said the agreement establishes a process to move the residents of Camp Ashraf to a temporary location. It did not give a timeline for the move or specify the new location.
But U.S. and Iraqi officials have previously identified a former American military base in Baghdad as the location being considered to house the exiles.
From there, the U.N.'s refugee agency will process their asylum claims with the idea that they would eventually be resettled in other countries.
The People's Mujahedeen Organization of Iran first moved to Camp Ashraf during the regime of Saddam Hussein, who saw the group as a convenient ally against Tehran. The group is committed to the overthrow of the Iranian regime, and sided with Iraq in the war against Iran in the 1980s.
The group carried out a series of bombings and assassinations against Iran's clerical regime in the 1980s and fought alongside Saddam's forces in the Iran-Iraq war. But the group says it renounced violence in 2001. U.S. soldiers disarmed them during the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has been determined to close down the camp, located in barren terrain northeast of Baghdad about 50 miles (80 kilometers) from the Iranian border, by the end of December. His government considers the camp as an affront to Iraq's sovereignty.
Last week, an Iraqi government spokesman said the government was working out a solution to the situation at Camp Ashraf with the U.N. and would allow the camp to stay open into January as residents are being relocated. At the time, representatives of the residents suggested they would be willing to move, as long as their security was provided for.
Under the agreement outlined by the U.N., the international organization will monitor the relocation process and then a team from the U.N.'s refugee agency will be deployed at the new location to process the refugee claims.
The Iraqi government will be responsible for the exiles' safety during that time, and will have a liaison officer from the Ministry of Human Rights involved in the relocation, the U.N. said.
"I would like to highlight that the government is exclusively responsible for the safety and security of the residents both during their transfer and in the new location until they leave the country," said Martin Kobler, Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary General for Iraq.
The Iraqi government's vow to close Camp Ashraf had raised concerns that forcibly removing its 3,400 residents would result in violence. The U.N. has said that at least 34 people were killed in a raid on the camp by Iraqi security forces last April.
Representatives of the camp could not be reached Sunday evening. They sent out a press release Sunday evening saying that rockets had been fired on their camp. No casualties were reported. There was no way to immediately verify the claims.
The People's Mujahedeen has been branded a foreign terrorist organization by the United States, a designation now under review by the State Department. It has been removed from similar blacklists in Europe.

I have shared tea with the Touaregs in Attar, Mauritania.
Custom dictates that one always serves three teas for the following reasons:
- the first is bitter like death,
- the second pleasant like life,
- the third is sweet like love.
A Touareg proverb says: A tea without mousse is a Touareg without his scarf .
In Tanzania and Kenya, I wore the sparkling colored jewellery of the Massai.
I was contemplative before their proud presence, dressed in a red tunic, spear in hand, hair braided, gleaming and tinted red.
I have hunted with the Vezous, fished with a spear in the region of Moromba Madagascar.
My eyes have been dazzled by the aquatic world, a multicolored bouquet of plants, fish and shellfish.
I have drunken rum with the last surviving Caribbean Armeridians of Dominica.
There are no more than 3000 living in a territory, which belongs to them and in which they practice their own ways and customs.
The valleys and hills are covered with an extraordinary, luxuriant tropical vegetation.
All these voyages have allowed me to make relevant my daily life.
All these different people have brought me happiness, color, and given me their smile despite all their difficulties for survival.
Since this time, I am always telling myself that I dont have the right to complain.
For several years my friends have asked me what I was searching for, and I didnt have a response
One day, I received a call, at last a response to my quest.
The message said:
Take your liberty,
Free yourself of all negative thoughts (*spirits),
See only happiness each day without thinking about tomorrow,
Share you feelings (*sentiments), your colors, your sensitivities.
All that I have stored in the depths of me, these voyages, these encounters, these moments of contemplation, I transmit them to each individual.
I counsel (*advise) my private clients on spirit, on interior decoration, on well-being in teir lives, on listening to their hearts, their sensibilities, I help to liberate them.
I bring a sunset in the form of a net curtain, double curtains, in parting numerous nuances of orange and fuchsia, greatly appreciated for their softness and naturalness.
I invite rest and tranquillity in bringing green, the symbol of nature, of freshness, and of health.
With yellow, the color of light and warmth, the symbol of wealth and prosperity which draws ones regard, the sun enters the home moving one away from the sadness of the long gray days of winter...
I love travelling the world for the diversity of people, of beliefs, of cultures, of religions, and in collecting the most unusual objects.
For all these years, after having studied Art History, the history of furniture, and art and style, I worked in very diverse houses of fashion (Weston, Orcade, Minelli, Kookai...) which has permitted me to observe different styles.
Kookai was the most enriching experience because it opened a world where I had to listen, advise, and guide clients from different cultures.
My daily life was based on taking risks, where regent war (Israel), terrorism (Algeria), political instability...
All these experiences of sharing, of listening, of exchange, have pushed me towards advising in interior decoration
Interior decoration, much like the world, has no boundaries, it allows us to be fraternal.

After the circulation of the controversial nude pictures of Prince Harry on the Internet, in which he was found naked with another naked girl, Katrina Darling says that he should not be condemned for his naked acts. Darling is the stripper cousin of the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton.
Only last year it was discovered ahead of the Royal Wedding that Darling was related to Middletons. The stripper cousin has come out in support of Harry saying that his behaviour was neither wrong nor sordid.
Darling said, 'After seeing the images of Prince Harry naked online I was shocked that the public were surprised that there is a young man having fun, partying and being comfortable with his body'. The 22 year old is the second cousin of Kate and the fact was only revealed to her y the reporters weeks before Kate and Price William got married.
Darling works as a burlesque dancer for years and when she discovered her Royal ties then she went on to create a new song and dance routines to mark the Jubilee called God Save The Queen. The strip dancer has also earned a six figure sum for posing on the cover of the adult magazine Playboy. Katrina says that she is comfortable with her nudity and added that Harry does not have to be ashamed of what he did.

Implanted Telescope Used to Help Improve Vision
LAKELAND | A tiny telescope inside his right eye has given John Reinhold some of the sight he lost to age-related macular degeneration.
It lets him read books again and watch television after having been legally blind.
Macular degeneration wipes out the eye's central vision by damaging the macula, that small part of the eye that's needed for central vision. People retain some peripheral vision in the eye.
"I'd see people in church," the retired developer said by telephone in an interview from his home in Cincinnati, Ohio.
"They'd come up and I couldn't recognize them until they got on top of me."
That changed after surgery last October, done by Dr. Marc H. Levy of Sarasota Retina Institute. A neuro-ophthalmologist, Levy was the first in Florida who did surgery to implant the intraocular telescope.
He did five in the study that got the procedure approved and has done about one every other month since February 2013.
He puts the telescope into the better of the two eyes that are legally blind. It replaces the patient's lens in that eye.
"This disease robs you of a lot of different things," said Levy, a retinal specialist.
"It robs you not only of your sight but of your social interaction."
The procedure isn't being done in Polk County yet, according to VisionCare Ophthalmic Technologies, creator of the CentraSight procedure. In addition to Sarasota, teams have done it in Orlando, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, Miami, Panama City, Pensacola and West Palm Beach.
Another location — the University of South Florida in Tampa — has just begun, VisionCare said.
Reinhold's vision isn't perfect, but the difference has been profound.
"I enjoyed reading and that was taken away," said Reinhold, 78. "Now I sit down in front of Kindle." As for watching television, he said, he can sit 5 or 6 feet from the screen because the telescope magnifies the picture 2.7 times.
He isn't able to read newspapers because of the size of the type.
There are other procedures available to treat wet or advanced neovascular macular degeneration. They include injections into the eye, laser treatment of parts of the eye and laser surgery, according to the National Eye Institute.
Reinhold's options were limited because he has end-stage dry macular degeneration rather than the wet type. The other procedures wouldn't have worked for him.
Nine in 10 of more than 10 million people with macular degeneration have the dry type, the Foundation Fighting Blindness estimates.
Reinhold remembers his excitement when a son, living in the Tampa Bay area, called and said, "Dad, I just saw something on the Internet. The (Food and Drug Administration) approved a procedure for dry macular degeneration." Levy, too, was excited when FDA approval came after years of study. "This was the first time a telescopic device was being put in the eye," he said.
FDA gave approval in 2010 for a limited category of people with end-stage dry macular degeneration. It took awhile after that for Medicare to start paying for the treatment, which Levy said costs about $19,000, most of it being the cost of the implanted device. The guidelines include: Being 75 or older.
Not having had cataract surgery in the eye where the lens will be placed.
Not having narrow-angle glaucoma.
Having a healthy cornea.
People can have astigmatism, nearsightedness or farsightedness if it's not too extreme, Levy said. It's also crucial to have someone able to transport the eye patient to and from rehabilitation needed after surgery.
"This is like getting a new knee or hip," Levy said. "You have to learn how to see again."
A full CentraSight team involves a retina specialist, a low-vision optometrist, a low-vision occupational therapist and a cornea specialist/surgeon. More information is at www.CentraSight.com.
The cornea specialist normally is the one who does the surgery. Levy is "grandfathered" in to do the surgery because he did it in the study. Levy's team has Dr. Lissa Rivero, optometrist with Sarasota Retina Institute, and Yolanda Cate, occupational therapist with Low Vision Rehab Solutions.
Dr. Edgar Espana, Dr. Bruce Madow and Dr. Peter Pavan are the USF ophthalmologists. Dr. Bruce Anderson is its optometrist, with occupational therapists from Tampa General Hospital Outpatient Rehabilitation Services.
In Orlando, the team is Dr. William Dunn of Florida Retina Institute, Dr. Miguel Lugo of Lugo Eye, optometrist Dr. Chris Choat, Lighthouse of Central Florida, and occupational therapist Bonnie Smith of Low Vision Rehabilitation of Central Florida.
Before being approved to get the device, eye patients need to go through a couple months of testing. The low-vision optometrist works with the patient, using different powers of lenses in external telescope simulators, to see whether magnification would help.
The brain would need to get used to merging differing visions from two eyes, one magnified by the telescope and another having peripheral vision, into workable images.
Reinhold went through several meetings with the low-vision optometrist as his eyes adjusted post surgery. He said he had two sets of glasses, one for reading and the other for distance, with prescriptions that changed three times in less than six months.
"It is not a panacea," Levy cautioned. "I don't want to make it sound like it solves everything." Yet he's enthused about the potential of the device and expects it will be approved for younger patients. "Science fiction has become reality," Levy said. "We are putting a mini-telescope in the eye where the human lens used to be."

text: Digital Marc Maron is a Profoundly Funny Man By Tina Dupuy|September 19, 2010Share By Tina Dupuy|September 19, 2010Share Marc Maron's podcast has blown up recently and it's given the comedian new notoriety in the last year. And it's well deserved – he's brilliant. Case in point: Sunday on a regular flight from New York to LA flying business class Maron finds himself sitting next to Ken Mehlman. Mehlman served as RNC Chairman and Bush Campaign Chief and was an architect of the "homos will destroy marriage therefore vote Republican" 2004 campaign. Then late last month, Mehlman admitted what most of Washington already knew – he's gay. So Mehlman is out and laying low and then sits next to tweeter Maron on a flight. We believe this is the first brush with the media – the first interview with anyone publishing anything since he came out as a back-stabber to his kind a few weeks ago. Maron tweeted that Mehlman said if Sarah Palin got nominated "it wouldn't be good." And the former Chairman called Palin pal Delaware senate candidate Christine O'Donnell "kooky." Are there ethical implications here for Maron? Did he need to tell Mehlman he was on the record? Do comics have to warn you not to do something stupid in front of them so they won't do a joke about you? Should we all just assume what we say in public is – public? Inquire with Maron's nipple…it clearly was there. We asked Maron, while he was still on the flight if he exchanged numbers with Mehlman since they are both going to be in LA. "Not yet," Maron relayed to FBLA. "He's watching Curb Your Enthusiasm at the moment." Below: another pic and some choice tweets. Check out Marc's Twitter here and check out his podcast here.

Jersey abuse inquiry has first meeting
A public inquiry into child abuse in Jersey's care system will hold a preliminary hearing in St Helier.
The Independent Jersey Care Inquiry, led by Frances Oldham QC, is examining allegations of abuse dating back to the 1960s.
Following a three-year police investigation which ended in 2011, seven people were convicted for a range of crimes spanning decades.
Many of those related to the now-closed Haut de La Garenne home in St Martin.
Proceedings were delayed last year when the original chairwoman, Sally Bradley, had a stroke.
Thursday's hearing will set terms of reference for the inquiry, which is expected to get fully under way in the summer and report in a year's time.
The precise timescale under investigation will depend on how many witnesses come forward and there is, as yet, no deadline for submissions.
The inquiry still wants to hear from anyone who was in care in Jersey since the 1960s and from those who have provided or monitored care services.
Frances Oldham, a senior UK judge with 36 years experience in family and criminal law, said: "The inquiry aims to understand what happened, why it was allowed to happen and what lessons can be learned.
"We will put witnesses at the heart of this process and do all we can to ensure that they are encouraged to trust us with their stories and experiences."

NEW YORK: Brands are using the back-to-school shopping period to target teachers and schools in an attempt to win a greater share of a $26bn retail bonanza.
With this level of spending expected by the National Retail Federation, the back-to-school season ranks as the largest shopping spike in the US after the year-end holiday.
Relevant brands have been using a variety of methods to increase sales to both schools and parents, ranging from the sponsorship of websites to generation of project ideas using their own products.
Kleenex, for example, is one of the brands sponsoring TeacherLists.com, a website that posts more than 300,000 back-to-school lists from around the country. When teachers using the site put together their school supplies lists for parents, they are encouraged to specify Kleenex tissues rather than generic tissues.
TeacherLists founder Tim Sullivan told the Wall Street Journal that tissues were the most commonly requested item from schools this year.
Procter & Gamble, which makes Puffs facial tissues and Bounty paper towels, has sponsored TeachersLists in the past but, arguing that most parents get their lists directly from teachers and schools, they are instead focusing on coupons, online sweepstakes and back-to-school packaging to get parents to buy their products.
Brands with a particular purpose also look at developing relationships with teachers. Elmer's glue, for example, has created an online teachers club that offers project ideas and lesson plans as well as the chance to win supplies. And Crayola, the crayon maker, attends education conferences to showcase its products to the teaching community.
With up to 40% of annual sales of products such as writing implements taking place in this period, it is important for marketers to establish brand preference and loyalty. with a presence on teachers' lists seen as vital.
In the case of products such as disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizers, brands also have one eye on a knock-on effect for the winter cold-and-flu season when parents are more likely to buy the same items for the home.

Typically, anyone who appears in a photograph will be asked to sign a photo release form by the professional photographer. It can be a general release form that allows unlimited use of the photo, or a restricted release form that specifies how the photo can be used.
A photo release form is sometimes referred to as a personal release form or model release form, where the model is any person in the photo. The general form of the release is called a blanket release. This form is often used by stock photographers who sell unlimited quantities of their photos. Limited releases are commonly used by models and celebrities who want to restrict the use of their image. When children are photographed, they and their parents will generally sign a release written for children.

Go-ahead for green energy cable
July 12, 2014 by Jeff
Filed under Green Energy News
The project by SSE aims to deliver 1.2 gigawatts of renewable electricity generation through the link between Caithness and Moray in Scotland.
The scheme, which is due to be completed in 2018, represents the largest investment in the region's electricity network since the hydro era of the 1950s.
Ofgem said although it has approved the project, it is studying the financial details of the scheme. If it finds the project can be built for less, it will lower the amount of funding allowed to complete the link.
SSE unit Scottish Hydro Electricity Transmission is working on the scheme, which will connect planned wind farm projects in the area to the country's energy grid.
The regulator said it will consult on the project's funding proposals in the autumn.
Ofgem senior partner for transmission Martin Crouch said: "This is a major step forward for an essential upgrade to the high voltage grid so that more renewable energy can connect to the networks.
"We have already started on the next phase of checking SHE's spending plans and we will ensure it completes the work as efficiently as possible so that consumers pay a fair price for this."
The regulator also moved today to cut charges for green energy generators. Ofgem said that from April 1 2016 charges to these suppliers from the transmission operator, National Grid, will more closely reflect their use of the network.
The watchdog said this will benefit suppliers of wind or solar energy who do not constantly use the grid.
Transmission charges account for around 4% of the average household energy bill.
Mr Crouch said: "The changes to transmission charging are the result of an extensive consultation process and detailed analysis. The new arrangements more accurately reflect the costs of Britain's diverse energy generation and will lead to lower costs overall for consumers."
Work on the new subsea cable is expected to begin in the next few months, with more than 600 jobs being created, acc ording to Scottish Hydro Electricity Transmission.
Mark Mathieson, managing director of networks at the energy company, said: "As a responsible developer, we have worked with communities and other stakeholders to make sure that we have the best solution for connecting renewable energy to the transmission system.
"I am very pleased that it has been given the green light and we will now work with Ofgem on the remaining details and focus on ensuring that the new link is constructed in a safe and responsible way so that the benefits it will bring in unlocking renewable sources of energy for decades to come are realised."
M ichael Rieley, senior policy manager at the industry body Scottish Renewables, said the subsea link would " significantly reduce bottlenecks on the system, and could unleash over 1.2GW of renewable energy projects in the north of Scotland which is enough energy to power the equivalent of 637,575 homes".
Mr Rieley added changes to the transmission charging regime were "a long-awaited, and much welcomed, recognition of the value of the Scottish renewable energy sector".
He said: " The changes will help create a more level playing field between generators on the Scottish mainland and those further south, which is crucial if we are to make the transition to a low-carbon energy system while also providing value for consumers.
"Despite our disappointment that the new charging regime won't be implemented until 2016, four years later than originally estimated, this announcement from Ofgem is undoubtedly good news for the sector."
Lang Banks, director of environmental body WWF Scotland, said: " Given the urgent need to clean up the UK's power sector, cut climate emissions and keep the lights on, it's bizarre we've had a system in place that has effectively penalised some of the nation's best locations for generating renewable energy.
"While it's a pity that the scheme won't now start until 2016, we very much welcome the news that an agreement has been reached to improve the electricity charging regime. This decision should help to unlock much more of Scotland's massive renewable energy potential.
"Scotland already generates about a third of the UK's entire renewable electricity needs and has the potential to contribute more in the future now that this agreement is in place."

I don't seem to have any problems with games and windows always says I'm connected but this problem makes browsing the web very frustrating and time consuming.
I have Zone Alarm Firewall running in the background and I'm running Windows XP Home SP3. I've also done multiple spyware and virus scans (AVG, Spybot-SD, Malwarebytes) and they all come back squeaky clean so I'm confident it's not a malware problem, but it's probable that I'm wrong...
Now the interesting thing i found was that when i tried to view my router, a Linksys BEFSR81 , settings the page would load once and after that, the page would always time out.
Any help would be very much appreciated.


text: I don't know what it is with the Germans and their desire to make music out of banging on things that originally were not designed as musical instruments. When I discovered AutoAuto!, of course, I had to think of everybody's favourite unpronouncable Einstürzende Neubauten (which one of the AutoAuto! people claims to have played with in the past). No offense to the AutoAuto! crowd, but I think I personally prefer the real thing (here even with 100 members of the audience contributing), even though the bass player (who also bangs on the big blue can on the ground) reminds me of another one of my favourite pop culture characters (no, it's not Buddy Rich).

The HTC One Max has leaked in a couple of images prominently revealing the rumored fingerprint scanner at the back. We can see the smartphone posing in between two units of the HTC One, revealing the size difference between the smartphones. The fingerprint sensor/scanner is reminiscent of the Apple iPhone 5s which broke cover recently, and might have similar functions. However, we won't be surprised if the idea gets scrapped entirely in its final implementation. Earlier today, we saw the branding image of the One Max leaking on Twitter.
The smartphone is rumored to pack a 5.9 inch 1080p Super LCD 3 panel, a 2.3 GHz Snapdragon 800 chipset, an Ultrapixel camera of unknown resolution, 2GB of RAM and Android 4.3 with the latest version of Sense 5. It will be very interesting to check out this rumored fingerprint scanner, if real. Apple's implementation is fairly limited in its approach, in a way that only a limited number of native applications can make use of it. But with Android, we can expect almost any app take advantage of this nifty feature.
