The UN Security Council has been urged by B'Tselem, an Israeli human rights group, to take decisive action now to end the country's occupation of Palestinian territory.
Hagai El-Ad, executive director, told an informal council meeting Friday on "Illegal Israeli Settlements: Obstacles to Peace and the Two-State Solution" that Israel has controlled Palestinian lives in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem for the past 49 years "and counting".
With the 50th anniversary of the occupation approaching next year, El-Ad said: "The rights of Palestinians must be realised, the occupation must end, the UN Security Council must act, and the time is now." He stressed that the council "has more than just power: you have a moral responsibility and a real opportunity to act with a sense of urgency before we reach the symbolic date of June 2017 and the second half of that first century begins."
Americans for Peace Now, a sister organisation of another Israeli rights group, Peace Now is also campaigning for an end to Israeli occupation. Lara Friedman, the group's director of policy and government relations said that when Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organisation signed the Oslo peace accords 23 years ago, the settler population in the West Bank was 116,000, At the end of 2015, it was almost 390,000.
"I urge you here today to finally take action in the Security Council to send a clear message to Israel that the international community stands by the two-state solution and unambiguously rejects policies that undermine it – including Israeli settlement policies," Ms Friedman said.
US deputy ambassador David Pressman told the meeting that "the United States remains firmly committed to advancing a two-state solution … [and] we are deeply concerned about continued settlement activity". He recalled that last week the United States condemned new Israeli settlements and said that since 1 July more than 2,400 settlement units have been advanced in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. This makes "a viable Palestinian state more remote", he said: "In short, we need to start implementing the two-state solution on the ground right now".
Earlier this week, at a joint briefing with Netanyahu in Washington, US President Donald Trump asked the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to hold off on building new Jewish settlements on land claimed by Palestinians..
Trump promised to strike a deal that would bring an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: "I'm looking at two-state and one-state… I can live with either one. The United States will encourage a peace and really a great peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians, but they have to negotiate it themselves".

Garmin Forerunner Power Save/ Low Battery Notifications
Do you have a Garmin Forerunner 610/620 and noticed that pesky Power Save notification to keep popping up? If this happens to you, don't worry, it's very common. The Power Save notification is known to pop up when a user acquires satellites prior to a run or race and is waiting for the start for a long period of time. For most units, this pop up will appear after 5 minutes if the timer was not started. Getting rid of the pop up and correcting the problem is as easy as tapping the screen of the Forerunner 610/620, or hitting any button on the unit. Both the Forerunner 220 and Forerunner 620 have an extended timeout that can be turned on to extend the power save to 25 minutes. To set this up, simply go to:
Settings-> Activity Settings-> Timeout
The same holds true for the Low Battery notification that pops up when battery power is between 5-10%. When the Low Battery notification pop ups, you can simply tap the screen on the Forerunner unit or hit a button to get rid of the message and proceed as planned. Most Garmin watches do have an OK option or point to the correct button to dismiss the notification, but if you're unit is touch screen, pressing anywhere will get the job done.


text: I have just set up a new site to lock content using CPA L#$d, but no matter how I test it, the content NEVER unlocks. I have actually completed an offer, including entering information and it was accepted. Then I completed 5-6 different surveys, all accepted. All that happens it just keeps going to another survey or offer. I must have spent a good 30 minutes doing them, the content is NEVER unlocked on my site. It just keeps cycling through - checking... Not Completed Yet. I am thinking perhaps I am doing something wrong - or is this a normal experience with this company. This is my first time trying it out, but it seems like a complete waste of time because no user would ever spend that amount of time I did - and it was for nothing as the stuff never unlocked. Is there some setting that needs to be done in order to get the widget to work correctly? If needed I can PM you the name of my site, I do not want to publish it here. Site is php based, I have the widget in the <head> section of the index.php file. It opens after about 15 seconds on site, totally fine. It just never unlocks. Thanks for any advice

Savannah Fashion week is a wrap, and turning to your closet you assess the number of happy shopping bags filled with the latest styles.
But glancing down those rows of racks you know what you face - spring cleaning.
Not only should you approach this year to year to keep your closet clean, but also really it is to keep your style fresh. Let go of all those torn and harried items. Sweep away those things that never match. Clear out the old to work in the new, which for some can be a hard task. Remember that this is once again painting a new you. Here are some tough rules to get you started.
The Rules
1. Never outgrow your closet
Chances are that you have already established your closet area. Keep in mind that the line between amassing a master collection and hoarding can become easily blurred. So I say if you upgrade to a mansion with a walk-in closet then you probably can afford to advance your level of designer collections. Until then, work with the space you have.
2. Do the math
Start off with the facts, they never lie. Just how many black dresses do you own? How many white shirts? How many unmatched socks? If it helps to assign seasons to each section then create a matrix - three winter sweaters, three spring sweaters, three fall sweaters, etc. Just count them, leave the emotions behind, and use this inventory later.
3. Make first cuts
This is the clear draft pick. What do you wear, and what do you never wear? Things that were a passing trend that you haven't looked at in six months are easy targets. Things you love to wear, things you rely on, these can stay. Just make sure you start at casual and go all the way through cocktail, beach and work attire. Visit with those old T-shirts and find new criteria to retire a few. Use your inventory to inform you. If you bought a new white shirt, encourage yourself to retire an old one.
4. Enlist the critics
No good closet cleaning is complete without honesty. Identify the best style friend who is honest and true. Enlist him or her for a few hours of fashion fun. First, fill them in on all your latest fashion finds. Next, talk through the tough work you have already done with your inventory and how you are evening out the numbers and necessities. Then proudly display your pile of first cuts.
Next is the tough part, but stay true! Ask your style friend to do a walk through to make a second round of cuts. This may get personal, for those of us who are attached to our items.
But here are some great questions to work through in the discussion. By section of your closet or drawer, go through what you are keeping and invite your friend to select items and question why they need to stay. Be careful not to become the defense attorney for each ensemble. If she asks you if you ever wear something, then tell her true.
Sometimes we learn more new ways to see our style from this discussion. I often identify a piece that I love but is hard to pair, and my style buddy can come up with a new option, right from my own closet. For those closest to our style buddies, sometimes swapping items can make this even more fun. Reward yourselves with cocktails or a pedicure after the tough talking is done.
5. Pack it up and move it out
You have your list and your moving out pile, now you just need to sort it one more time. If you plan for this step in the beginning you can prepare early. Your clean-out items are either wearable or not. Your items are either designer or basics. Go through your items and prepare lightly loved designer items for your favorite consignment shops - consider Cherry Picked or Designer Consigner if you haven't donated in a while.
Next, take the remainder of non-damaged non-designer items, and the well-loved designer ones, and bag them up for Goodwill or the Salvation Army. If you are even thinking of sneaking some of those pieces back into your closet - STOP. Unhand that piece and imagine the new style sensation it will bring to the lucky shopper who will discover it.
6. Move in the new kids
Returning to your clean closet will bring nothing but joy. You now have space for everything and even room for more. No matter what you think now, you will not have terrible dreams about that missing donated skirt, or the shoes you never wore. So take a deep breath and appreciate your personal style evolution.

Please watch the film first:
El moshkela akid mesh fel nas, el moshkela akid fik (the problem is not with the people, the problem has got to be with me). If you believe that then you better kill your self and get done with it!
I was watching an independent film at a culture center when those words were said. The film was called "Unclaimed" or (lam yostadal 3la 3enwan). It's about a lonely middle aged man who had no friends and lived alone. He worked in a government office where had no friendly colleagues either and even people doing their affairs in the office he worked in didn't go to his desk but headed to his colleagues. Nobody asked about him, cared how he was doing, called him, or even wrote to him. He felt depressed and started wondering for the reason.
He even started writing him self letters and mailing them to his address. The letters were returned to his work as Unclaimed. The more the letters the more the Unclaimed the more the depression. He decided to call himself and leave a message on the answering machine that always told him that he had no new messages but the number was out of service! He headed to his own street and building asking the people around for himself, but "nobody lives here with this name" or "never heard of him" came the answers.
That's when he thought "the problem is not with the people, the problem had to be me" you might as well throw your self off the balcony! I always believed that there's a critical point of return where a person shouldn't let him self reach. Just before that point one should have a pause, a moment of silence then a blast for something crazy, something new, something cheerful that would make me feel there's still hope. i should be myself, normal, my own normal, the normal that's normal for me, away from stereotypes and standardizm. Hell no!
The problem is not with me. I cope with people the way they are and they should accept me the way i am and have the tolerance to live with me as i with them. But if you reach the point where you despise yourself and your life you will try to change, then you will try to change. The uncomfortable zone! You can't live as other people just because the majority are like that. It's not comfortable. You were not brought up like that, and you can't change in days what was planted for years. You can't go back either, because once you leave it in despise it despises you too. Rejects you when ever you come near it, and that's where you feel lost in between.
The search for the soul.
Sit with yourself. Talk to her. Respect her, she deserves that, and she will respect you in return.
Know where you are. You can even write a list of demands. Give yourself time to find itself.
Now go out and start shopping. Shop for you list. Search for what you want and don't let go till you find it. Go to new places where nobody "normal" would go that's where you will find your match.

EA Founder Predicts Consoles Coming To a Close
It's hard not to admit that a heated battle currently exists behind the walls of the gaming industry among the hardware giants. We've all witnessed the tug-of-war shared between the big three – Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony – as they fight over our wallets to claim the bigger slice of the pie chart in sales. One of the tactics used to entice gamers towards brand dedication is through the marketing of console exclusives. Microsoft flexed their guns with Halo, and Sony answered back with the Killzone franchise and many others. As entertaining as it is to see the competition, one significant industry figure believes that this console war will come to an end.
Trip Hawkins, one of the founding fathers of Electronic Arts, shared his thoughts about the future of console gaming with an online episode of Game Theory. He said that developers will need to build games for multiple platforms to sustain themselves within the evolving industry. Such a direction will bring an end to console dominance and exclusives as well. Instead of consoles, gaming will be performed via a Cloud network on multiple devices.
"For much of the history of the industry, it was a winner takes all, single platform model. Clearly it's never going to be that way again.
"In the future, any kind of game company will have to have a technology approach that gives them agility across platform boundaries. That's going to play into where gaming needs to go, which is to become like SAS – or Software as A Service – where customers are going to the Cloud, where they have an account and where they have virtual items and they can play.
"But they might come in from a variety of different devices. It's going to be about simplicity and convenience and making that model work."
Hawkins words may seem novel, but he isn't the only person that shares the same opinion. A few months ago, well-renowned game developer, Hideo Kojima, had voiced the same belief. Although when Kojima had shared his remarks, not many shared enthusiasm for his outlook. However, a quick peek into the entertainment biz already shows that more content is becoming available to people's homes via digital streaming (i.e. movies and music). Perhaps, this is the direction that Hawkins and Kojima are seeing within the evolution of gaming. Now that two major players of the business have come forward with similar ideas, perhaps this means this change in the industry may come sooner than we expect.


text: THIS is the time of year when nations, no less than individuals, should take stock of accomplishments and failures and set their sights to the future. What most troubles Americans today is the sorry state of the United States economy. In an increasingly interdependent world, that is reason enough to be concerned about how we manage our global economic affairs.Here are 10 ways that we can do better in 1992. 1. Stop blaming others for our problems. Japan did not cause our recession. We should press Japan to open its markets, but mainly we have to get tough with ourselves. 2. Even better, stop thinking in terms of "them and us." Smart strategies of bargaining and cooperation - not confrontation - work best in promoting economic interests. A prosperous Europe and Japan mean more markets for US products and more jobs for American workers. 3. Stop dithering and get on with basic economic reforms. Shrinking our budget deficit may be difficult, but eventually it is the only way to shrink our trade deficit. We also need to spend more to increase our international competitiveness - by rebuilding our schools, rehabilitating our deteriorated physical infrastructure, and improving our health-care delivery. That means more taxes, not less. 4. Don't get hung up on ideology. The free market is usually the most efficient way to allocate resources and produce goods, but markets are not good at educating the young, caring for the old, building roads, keeping the environment clean, or preventing S&L disasters. Those tasks must fall to governments. 5. Recognize that economics is now the driving force of US foreign policy. Economic strength has become more important than military force. The value of American exports counts more than the throw-weight of our missiles. In the post-cold-war era, the Departments of Commerce and Treasury should often have more to say about international negotiations than State and Defense. 6. Push hard for agreements to liberalize trade. Next year will be decisive for two crucial sets of negotiations: the Uruguay Round of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (GATT), which governs most global commerce, and the North American free-trade agreement (NAFTA), which will ease trade barriers among Canada, Mexico, and the US. Failure to satisfactorily conclude the GATT talks could set the world on a downward spiral of market closing and trade conflicts that would cost every country dearly. Po stponing action on NAFTA endangers our best chance to build a constructive partnership with Mexico and, indeed, with the entire hemisphere. 7. Stop nickel and diming the international financial institutions. These institutions are crucial in mobilizing resources and talent to deal with the world's pressing economic issues. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) needs more money to address debt problems and support economic reform in Eastern Europe, Africa, and Latin America, but the US Congress neglected to appropriate the US contribution in 1991. 8. Get engaged in the struggle for democracy and economic revival in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. The US has an enormous stake in that region's rapid progress toward viable market economies and genuine democratic governments. This may be more important to world peace and security in the 21st century than was NATO and the US nuclear arsenal in the 20th. 9. Stop shirking our responsibilities for the global environment. The most ambitious international meeting on the environment ever will take place in Brazil this June. The meeting, however, may well turn out to be a bust unless the US stops being obstructionist and takes some leadership in developing international accords on climate change and other environmental threats. Washington should also expand its support for family planning and population activities worldwide. 10. Face up to the tragedy of poverty and inequality, both at home and abroad. Middle-class tax cuts may be good politics in this recession-blighted election year - but they threaten to exacerbate the already "savage inequalities" that are undermining this nation's social fabric. Failure to shift US foreign aid from cold-war clients toward the world's neediest populations would be a moral outrage. Sticking with these resolutions will not be easy - particularly as the presidential campaign heats up. None of them is a panacea. But taken together, they would strengthen the American economy, along with that of the rest of the world. They would also infuse US international economic policy with a firmer sense of purpose - and even a small measure of generosity.

Libertyville library to honor donor posthumously
A lifelong Libertyville resident, Margaret Earnshaw was a proud patron of the Cook Memorial Public Library District.
"I saw her there many times," Libertyville Mayor Terry Weppler said.
When Earnshaw died in February 2011, the 70-year-old retired state worker left the library a significant sum of money as part of a trust. The exact sum hasn't been determined yet, but it's expected to be more than $100,000, said Weppler, who Earnshaw had hired to oversee the trust.
"She wanted to give back to the community," he said.
It's the second-largest financial donation the library district has ever received, officials said. In 2003, a family donated $150,000 in cash and stock so the district could purchase a new bookmobile.
"Ms. Earnshaw certainly recognized the many years of fine service she received from (the) library staff and appreciated having a local institution such as the public library to contribute to the quality of her life and the whole community," Cook Memorial Director Stephen Kershner said in an email.
Library board President Bonnie Quirke said she was pleasantly shocked by the gift.
"I think it's absolutely wonderful that someone is so culturally minded that they would remember a library with a bequest," Quirke said. "It's unique in this day and age."
To honor Earnshaw, library district officials will unveil a painted portrait of her Monday at the Cook Park Library, 413 N. Milwaukee Ave., Libertyville. The portrait presentation is planned for 6 p.m. in the lobby.
The oil painting was commissioned as part of Earnshaw's trust and was a stipulation of the gift, Weppler said. Painted from photographs by Grayslake artist Leisa Shannon Corbett, the portrait depicts Earnshaw with her four beloved dogs.
"She called them her girls," said Weppler, who met Earnshaw while they were walking their dogs.
As a stipulation of the trust, the money must be spent at the Cook Park Library. The district has a second library on Aspen Drive in Vernon Hills.
Earnshaw didn't have any children and her siblings are dead, too. She saw the gift to the library as a way people could remember the Earnshaw family, Weppler said.
"I think Marge would be very happy with it," Weppler said. "This is what she wanted."
Library trustees will discuss possible uses for the donation at their meeting Monday. That's scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at the Cook Park Library.

Cris & Bob have 3 kids and 5 grandchildren that all live in the area.

I do believe a strike is the right approach to a country's educational problems simply because It wouldn't cause permanent damage, or teach kids invalid things.
At the same time It would alert those in charge, and make them worry; So changes could in fact be pushed for and occur.
Having a strike sounds like a counterproductive way to get better education.What we need is a voting system, petitions, and get close to someone who will listen and be able to speak on others behalf. The education system does need to be increased though, some states alone are way behind others.

Slam the door, and let's tear down the walls
For those not paying attention, pathetic shell of a human Jose Canseco has been all over TV like a cheap suit, promoting his new book "Juiced." In it, he gives a truckload of sordid details about how he abused steroids in his baseball career, and he names dozens of other players who were in on it as well.
Is there anyone left out there who wasn't aware that some pro atheletes cheat? Didn't think so. Now, Mr. Canseco's allegations might be interesting if he wasn't selling them for $26 a pop. In fact, there's an overwhelming sense of public apathy about the "revelations" in this new overpriced paperweight. That's not to say that a select few interest groups aren't concerned about the lasting effects.
During an appearance at a Tacoma, Washington bookstore, Canseco was greeted by a small group of protesters. The leader of the group, local resident Courtney Love, issued this brief statement to the press:
"Mr Canseco's rampant media whoring during promotion of his book is creating a negative public image of actual whores like myself."
Just kidding folks... Courtney Love didn't say that at all. There's no way she knows big words like "rampant" or "negative." Ha! Two birds with one stone, baby.
Seriously, though... they're both total whores.

I was going to do a Very Hungry Caterpillar nursery until my husband convinced me to find out what we're having this time. It was one of my favorite books as a little kid and my older kids love it too. The Eric Carle museum has fabrics and I was going to make the crib bedding and everything myself.A jungle theme is also nice for a gender neutral nursery.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney just can't get enough of each other. The actors who have worked together on the OCEAN'S films (version THIRTEEN coming this summer) will reteam for the upcoming Coen brothers' flick BURN AFTER READING. Clooney had been set to star in the adaptation of the novel of the same name by Admiral Stansfield Turner. While Variety says the screenplay is shrouded in secrecy, your buds here at JoBlo.com are here to shed some light on the dark comedy with some exclusive details. Clooney will star as Osbourne Cox, a former CIA agent shopping his memoirs. A data CD with a draft of his writings is accidentally leaked after his ex-wife's divorce attorney (who has stolen the files as ammunition) leaves them at the gym. The disc is found by gym employees Linda Litzke and Chad Feldheimer who decide to sell what they think is the confidential information to the highest bidder in order to pay for a series of expensive plastic surgeries. Frances McDormand would star as Litzke and while I can't confirm it, I'm guessing Pitt will play Feldheimer (he could also be playing Harry, a former colleague of Cox's). All sounds very Coen and pretty damn funny. Filming on BURN is expected to begin this August.

We are Lancashire Mind; our vision is Mental Wellbeing for All
We revolutionise attitudes, challenge perceptions and alter provision
We work in partnership with others to provide training and support, and campaign locally to make your mental wellbeing a priority. Mental health conditions are not barriers to playing an active role in society and negative perceptions should be challenged. We believe that prevention is the solution, that everyone can achieve Mental Wellbeing and resilience is the key to sustaining it. Our work helps people in Lancashire to value and take care of their mental health.
Building Resilient Communities
With 50% of mental health conditions developing before the age of 14 building resilience from an early age is central to the work we do.
We support people to develop resilience through workplace training and our schools programme 'Bounce Forward', working with communities to embed resilience in all that they do.
All of us can build up our resilience by expanding our social networks and learning the skills to nurture our wellbeing and develop a positive outlook. Our ability to cope with tough times, to bounce forward, is not set in stone. By 'weather-proofing' our mental wellbeing we can build our resilience, so we are better able to cope with life's challenges
Overcoming Barriers
Mental wellbeing is more than the absence of a mental health condition, it's universal and about our ability to feel good and function well.
We work with people to manage and improve their mental wellbeing through our Tenancy Support and Wellbeing Coach services, adopting a joined up approach with other care services.
There are simple things we can all do to improve our own mental wellbeing, as well as support people living with a mental health condition. As a high level of mental wellbeing will help someone to better manage a mental health condition it also enables us to be self motivated and look after and value our health and happiness.

Age Without Limits – Chair Yoga
Lessons from Mother Nature
This magnificent Great Egret stood in the front yard of Sunrise Scottsdale Assisted Living as I drove up to teach my Wednesday chair yoga class. I was a few minutes early and was able to sit there an enjoy the bird as it stood still, walked, and looked around. The street traffic and a couple in a nearby bench did not distress this bird as it basked the beautiful spring weather.
At the beginning of the class I asked the students, whose faces lit-up as I showed them the bird's picture, how they would describe this bird.
- Majestic
- Dignified
- Graceful
- Stately
- Confident
- Tall
- Classy
- Proud
- Elegant
Then I asked my chair yoga students to sit in mountain pose showing the same qualities as this bird. They responded and showed a new admiration for themselves. The same command was given throughout the class. After class I again asked them to leave and walk into the lunch room with all the above characteristics. When you are over 70, have some cognitive impairment and, maybe, don't think too highly of yourself, these elements are critical.
May you stand in mountain pose with majesty, dignity, grace, stateliness, confidence, height, class, pride and elegance.
Age is NOT a Four-Letter Word!
Nadine Kelly, M.D., Janet Rae Humphrey, Amy Kraft, Vanessa Earnst, Susan Schirm – All are Registered Yoga Teachers
Age Without Limits was one of two textbooks for The Art and Science of Teaching Chair Yoga – Age to Wellness.
Last October, I attended a yoga workshop entitled, "The Art and Science of Chair Yoga – Age to Wellness" tailored for teaching yoga to adults ages 50 – 100. I met two vibrant and inspirational women, (Janet Rae Humphrey, E-RYT and Amy Kraft, E-RYT) passionate about giving senior students wellness through yoga. I had the opportunity to observe them both teaching women and men in their sixties through nineties.
One class in particular was a revelation; the ladies began the class in chairs, but progressed to powerful flowing standing poses. Their stamina was revelatory. Their joy was palpable. There was a sense of camaraderie and playfulness, manifested by joking and easy laughter. Teacher and students moved with graceful precision and focus. Each glowing face was more proud and beautiful than the next.
After class, the students shared how long they had been doing yoga and how it helped them. They reported improved balance, flexibility, and strength. They found pain relief for various chronic conditions such as arthritis. They also talked about coming to class to be with friends to have fun. Finally, each person thanked the teacher for her respectful guidance and compassion.
I was profoundly moved and inspired by teacher and students. As a yogini dedicated to teaching baby boomers and beyond, the workshop further reinforced for me the numerous benefits of yoga to our growing aging population. Yoga is a safe way to stay healthy because the practice can be adapted to meet the physical demands of aging. Yoga also alleviates mental and emotional stress; the yoga practitioner is more capable of coping with change, such as loss and loneliness, more commonplace as the years progress. Yoga teachers can offer gentle adjustments in class to offer both physical support in poses and emotional support through touch to connect to the student.
But most of all, I witnessed determined women who are comfortable in their bodies. They embody wisdom and prove that growing older can be approached with acceptance and dignity. One student, who had never been physical and as just started yoga, proved it is never too late to start practicing to choose health. A young friend once told me he saw death when he was around seniors; I see life.

Amazon Reviews Prove Age Without Limits is for Everyone
Chapter 9 – Arms and Shoulders
Prom Gloves – Page 108
Six five-star reviews have been posted on Amazon.com. How thrilling it is to see Age Without Limits benefit a variety of individuals. It is time for you to feel better too. Get you copy today.
I'm 65 years old. In October of 2015 I took up spey fly casting. Since then I've tried to practice daily. I began to have shoulder pain such that I curtailed practice, even when taking ibuprofen, and needed to give up certain casting forms. About a month ago I came across Age Without Limits, started doing the shoulder poses, and found instant relief. Within two weeks I was back to full practice sessions and no ibuprofen. I waited a month to write a review to make sure the improvement persisted. It not only has, it continues to get better. I experience very little discomfort now, have a much wider range of motion than I've had in years (decades?), and hope soon to return to all the casting forms. Thank you Janet Rae!

Age Without Limits is the consummate chair yoga book– Plus there are exercises for standing by a chair, using the wall, as well as suggestions for various health issues and more… As a therapeutic fitness and yoga specialist, I recommend this book to healthcare professionals, educators, bodyworkers, caregivers, younger family members, and of course older adults!!! Actually, everyone can discover specific exercises illustrated with instructions to support and enhance their quality of life!
Amy Kraft, BoomerPlusyoga.com
Janet has put together a comprehensive book that includes background information on the health benefits of yoga for older adults. Her pictures of the poses are very clear and easy to follow. The testimonials of her students are inspiring. I will be working with my husband to use the poses as part of his rehabilitation after his total knee replacement. This should be fun to do together.
Lynn Locher, RN
This book is wonderful! As a yoga instructor, I reference this book often for teaching classes and feel that the instructions are easy to follow. I use it on a daily basis.

As a yoga teacher, many of my students are approaching or past the age of 70. This book promises to be a good resource of ideas to work with a population of students often overlooked in the 'yoga culture'. It will also offer thoughts about posture and pose possibilities for my younger students. Glad I bought it.

And best of all, it is gifted to us by Janet Rae Humphrey who has lived this truth in her own life by healing her own body through her yoga practice.

Janet draws upon 20 years of experience working in medical research and patient care, plus peer-reviewed medical and scientific studies, to support her work and quotes them directly in this book.
But perhaps the most inspiring aspects of Age Without Limits are the photographs and testimonials from those who have benefitted directly from Janet's passion and excellence as a teacher. You will be moved by the joy and vitality that shines through in each of her students ranging in age from their 60s to their 90s.
Age Without Limits contains over 200 alignment-based chair and standing yoga poses designed to improve posture, strength, flexibility, balance, stamina, range of motion and well-being. With consistent practice, pain and physical limitations can be reduced and you can join the men and women highlighted in this book in aging successfully.

How many people can you fit in a car? More than you think
It's surprising how many people you can fit in a car if everyone just budges over.
A video from Kuwait illustrated this point perfectly when an extraordinary number of occupants apparently climbed out of a vehicle.
One by one the men exited the white off-road car and at one point it seemed like the stream would never end.
It did eventually come to a stop though, with the final count of occupants at 19.
The last man to leave confidently shut the boot he was sitting in and walked off – as nonchalant as you like.
But is it real, or just an elaborate fake? You decide.

The Hypocrisy That Is Roger Goodell and the NFL Player Conduct PolicyJune 21, 2010
Since being appointed NFL Commissioner on August 8, 2006, Roger Goodell has developed a reputation as a strict disciplinarian with regards to player behavior, a reputation fueled by the media that appears undeserved.
Goodell made it clear very early on that one of his major initiatives would be to address NFL off-the-field issues head on. Keeping his word, it took Goodell a mere seven months in office to introduce an all new Conduct Policy.
The Conduct Policy is separate from the league's substance abuse policy, where players are investigated for drug and alcohol abuse and performance enhancing drug use. The PCP specifically targets players' personal lives, how they conduct themselves, and how they represent the NFL image in the public. All players suspended under the PCP must apply for reinstatement.
It is important to note that the PCP is a Policy. A Policy, by definition is a set of principles and/or rules that drive decision making to achieve desired outcomes. As a framework only, Policies depend upon protocols or procedures to achieve the desired outcomes.
Roger Goodell and the NFL have been very public in outlining the details of the Player Conduct Policy. What is missing from the PCP is a set of identified protocols and procedures by which the Policy is enforced.
The enforcement of the PCP has been achieved on a "case by case" basis, with each case appearing to have been evaluated in a vacuum without consideration of precedence. Secondarily, the basic rights and procedures that exist within our own US legal system are by and large noticeably absent from PCP process. Accusations and charges are enough to trigger penalty. Convictions are irrelevant. Finally, while covered, team officials and coaches to date have been exempt from the policy.
According to the Policy, all people associated with the NFL are covered under the Policy: "The following persons ("Covered Persons") shall be considered subject to this Policy: (i) all players under contract; (ii) all full-time employees of the National Football League, its Member Clubs and related entities; (iii) all rookie players once they are selected in the NFL college draft; and (iv) all undrafted rookie players, unsigned veterans and other prospective employees once they commence negotiations with a Club concerning employment." This is blanket coverage - all players, NFL employees, and even "prospective" employees who are in the process of negotiating terms of employment with the NFL.
But is it applied to all NFL players in reality?
The Policy Isn't Universally Applied
Consider the following points:
- Since August 8, 2006, there have been 228 Arrests/Citations for NFL players. 16 players have been suspended under the PCP - 7%
- 49 players have suffered two or more arrests during this time frame
- Only 33% of repeat offenders suffered PCP punishment
Note that the statistics above do not include accusations, nor does it include the cross-pollinated population of players who've violated the Substance Abuse Policy and have been arrested (aka, Shawne Merriman). These numbers could be much higher.
Clearly, if Roger Goodell and the NFL were enforcing the PCP universally, we'd have seen far more NFL players face suspension under the PCP. Remember, the Policy can apply to either first time or repeat offenders. "Any Covered Person convicted of or admitting to a criminal violation (including a plea to a lesser included offense; a plea of nolo contendere or no contest; or the acceptance of a diversionary program, deferred adjudication, disposition of supervision, or similar arrangement) will be subject to discipline as determined by the Commissioner. Such discipline may include a fine, suspension without pay and/or banishment from the League. Any Covered Person convicted of or admitting to a second criminal violation will be suspended without pay or banished for a period of time to be determined by the Commissioner."
Because the Policy is missing any set of identified,reasonable procedures to enforce its application, it is not applied based upon practice, but instead it is based upon need or reaction. Thus the large majority of violators go unpunished because rules don't exist mandating the application of the PCP to their cases.
The Untouchables - the Players
Despite the Policy's claim that all 2nd time offenders "will" be punished under the Policy, 67% of repeat offenders have never faced a PCP penalty of any form. The list includes:
- Santonio Holmes (4 incidents) - has been arrested for Domestic Abuse (2 counts), Disorderly Conduct, Charged with Marijuana Possession, and most recently accused of Assault on a woman in a nightclub
- Randy Starks (2 incidents) - Arrested and charged with Domestic Assault; Arrested and Charged with Battery on a Police officer
- Steve McNair (2 incidents) - Arrested for DUI; Arrested for an illegal weapons charge
- Vincent Jackson (3 incidents) - Arrested for DUI twice; Arrested for driving on a suspended license/expired registration
- Willie Andrews (3 incidents) - misdemeanor gun charge; marijuana possession with intent to distribute; assault with a deadly weapon
- Steve Foley (4 incidents) - 2 counts of DUI, resisting arrest and assault on a police officer; domestic violence; disturbing the peace
- Shaun Phillips (2 incidents) - misdemeanor battery on a security guard; arrested for resisting/obstructing a police officer
- Dwight Smith (4 incidents) - arrested indecent conduct; charged with brandishing a handgun; misdemeanor marijuana position; arrested for pulling a "fake" gun on fans
- Gerald Sensabaugh (3 incidents) - arrested speeding and carrying a loaded weapon; arrested reckless driving; arrested, driving without a license and 3 guns in his vehicle
- Jared Allen (2 incidents) - arrested twice in the same year for DUI
- Other players with repeat offenses were not or have not been suspended: A.J. Nicholson, Admad Carroll, Albert Haynesworth, B.J. Sams, Bobby McCray, Cato June, Cedric Benson, Cedric Grffin, Claude Terrell, Darrell Reid, David Boston, Dominic Rhodes, Dominque Byrd, Donte Whitner, Jeff Reed, Jeramy Stevens, Jeremy Bridges, Joey Porter, Jonathan Babineaux, Kenny Wright, Kalif Barnes, Koren Robinson, Leroy Hill, Marcus Coleman, Matt Jones, Najeh Davenport, Plaxico Burress, Sam Brandon, and Terrence Kiel
The Untouchables - The Coaches and GMs
Just as bizarre as the scant few players who've received punishment under the PCP is that no coaches, GMs, or other team officials have been targeted under the policy. Keep in mind that the PCP explicitly lists Coaches, GMs and team personnel as personnel coverd by the PCP. There have been opportunities to enforce the Policy at this level.
The most notable - Oakland Raider head coach Tom Cable, a repeat offender himself.
In August 2009 assistant coach Randy Hanson claims that Tom Cable broke his jaw in an altercation at the team's facilities - during a coaches meeting of all things. "A two-month investigation into the incident by the Napa Police Department turned up substantial evidence of assault and bodily injury sustained by Hanson (including medical records proving serious injury), plus corroborating witness statements from other coaches present during the altercation."
In addition, several women have since come forward claiming Cable's been historically abusive to them - Sandy Cable (former wife), Marie Lutz, and Glenda Cable (2nd wife of 17 years) all have stepped forward and claimed cases of physical and verbal abuse by Cable ranging from 1986 through 2008. Please note evidence of Cable's abuse towards Glenda comes from their divorce documents in which it was stated "in the past he has been physically and verbally abusive to me."
Tom Cable is a repeat offender. There is a trail of verifiable evidence against him from four identified witnesses. Yet the NFL chose to turn a blind eye to the situation after doing what appears to be a paltry investigation.
There have been other cases, the most notable of which is the currently outstanding New Orleans Saints Vicodin case involving Sean Payton and other New Orleans Saints staff. This situation could be a very damaging one for the NFL and do more damage to "The Shield" than any individual player could have done.
While the case hasn't been resolved, it has disappeared from the landscape of public media consumption. New Orleans Saints NFL attorneys chose to invoke an arbitration clause in Santini's (the accuser and former security director) employment contract. This removed the case from civil court and the media spotlight, forbidding either side from discussing the case in public.
The decision to move the case to arbitration blocked the release of video and audio recordings related to the Vicodin theft claims. These included video showing assistant coaches in the act of stealing the pills and audio discussions between team trainers implicating GM Mickey Loomis on how to forge entries in the drug logs as a cover up.
If you remember, during Spygate the NFL sent officials to Foxboro to destroy tapes and evidence. The NFL appears to be working just as hard to make this case go away as well.
The NFL mysteriously at times invests significant amounts of league resources into investigating (on its own) player misconduct. Yet, in the case of Cable and now the Super Bowl Champion Saints, the NFL appears to be content not to invoke the PCP nor dig for the truth.
The Misapplication of Justice
To date, punishment delivered under the PCP follows no precedent. Its application is scant, and when it is applied, the penalties given are erratic. When cases are compared one to another, it is difficult to understand suspensions handed down. Consider the 16 players suspended under the PCP and their associated arrests/citations:
1 Game Suspension - Rocky Bernard (one arrest)
- Arrest - Assault; punched his ex-girlfriend, mother of one of his children, in the forehead with a closed fist, causing her head to strike a glass divider.

2 Game Suspension - Fred Evans (two arrests)
- Arrested - Marijuana possession

2 Game Suspension - Michael Vick (two arrests)
- Arrested - misdemeanor trespassing

3 Game Suspension - Marshawn Lynch (two arrests)

- Arrested - felony gun charge; police found a loaded gun in his vehicle in CA
4 Game Suspension - Bryant McKinnie (four offenses)
- Charged with obstructing a police officer
- Charged with disorderly conduct

- Arrested - aggravated battery, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest
6 Game Suspension - Ben Roethlisberger (no arrests or citations)
- Faces a civil suit for alleged rape by a Las Vegas woman
- Accused of sexual assault in Georgia; no charges filed by defendant or the District Attorney
8 Game Suspension - Tank Johnson (four arrests)
- Arrested - illegal gun possession
- Arrested - speeding/DUI
- Arrested - felony gun charge possession
- Arrested - misdemeanor aggravated assault and resisting arrest
8 Game Suspension - Chris Henry (6 offenses)
- Cited - three traffic charges, driving with a suspended license
- Arrested - marijuana possession
- Arrested - concealed weapons charges
- Arrested - DUI
- Arrested - providing alcohol to minors
- Arrested - assault and disorderly conduct
16 Game Suspension - Rob Reynolds (2 offenses)
- Arrested - domestic violence, assault and criminal damaging
- Violated league's substance abuse policy
16 Game Suspension - Donte Stallworth (one arrest)
- Arrested - charged with DUI and vehicular manslaughter
22 Game Suspension - Pacman Jones (6 offenses)
- Arrest - Felony Assault and vandalism
- Arrest - marijuana possession, obstruction of justice
- Search Warrant after traffic stop - marijuana
- Arrest - disorderly conduct and public intoxication
- Arrest - misdemeanor assault
- Arrest - Felony coercion (result of nightclub melee & shooting)
It only takes a casual look at the list to see that there is no pattern in discipline handed down by the league office. One case clearly does not serve as precedent for another when determining penalties.
Consider if you will Brandon Marshall vs. Chris Henry. Chris Henry was arrested four times, and cited two other times (DUI, Marijuana, Concealed Weapons, Assault, and Providing Alcohol to minors). Brandon Marshall was arrested 4 times (DUI and Domestic Assault 3 times), charged two other times, involved in 7 additional Domestic Abuse calls, and police were summoned after Marshall fired a gun- at his own father. How does the NFL justify suspending Chris Henry 8 games while giving Marshall only a single game? Is it not evident that Marshall's list of transgressions was not only twice as long as Henry's, but likely more nefarious?
As a separate comparison, you could make an argument that Marshall's rap sheet is worse than Adam Pacman Jones'. Pacman was arrested 5 times, charged once, and involved in a club incident that led to a man being paralyzed after a shooting. Marshall was arrested four times, charged twice and involved in a nightclub argument that lead to a teammate's death. Add to this his 8 other incidents, and Marshall's list of transgressions appears to outweigh Pacman's.
What happens when you compare Brandon Marshall vs. Michael Boley or Rocky Bernard or Fabian Washington? The latter three were all involved in single domestic assault incidents against their spouses/girlfriends. Each was suspended a game for their solo offense. Yet Brandon Marshall's 14 incidents only merited a one game suspension?
Next would be the case of Ben Roethlisberger, who was never charged nor arrested, yet suspended 6 games by the NFL. Roger Goodell and the NFL actually re-wrote the PCP (modified it) so they could apply it to a case like Roethlisberger's. If one were to make a comparison of Roethlisberger's case to the other 15 players suspended under the PCP, the closest cases in comparison would be those involving domestic abuse. Once again, consider Brandon Marshall. Police (on 11 domestic abuse calls) noted such different injuries as facial lacerations, facial bruising, cuts to her legs that required stitches, and red marks. Despite a lack of DNA, physical evidence, or even the D.A.'s office having enough information with which to pursue legal action, the NFL saw fit to levy a 6 game suspension on Roethlisberger as compared to Marshall's solo game.
Marshall isn't the only case that seems mishandled. Tank Johnson receiving a suspension of 8 games as compared to 3 games for Marshawn Lynch doesn't add up (one of Marshawn's incidents involved a hit and run with his vehicle which injured and could have killed another person). Ricky Manning receiving a one game suspension after a felony assault charge while Larry Johnson received an identical one game suspension for four assault charges makes little sense.
It is difficult to make comparisons between these cases, because for the vast majority - there is none.
The PCP is in Effect a PR Tool
The Player Conduct Policy appears to have been designed this way intentionally - because it is not a true "Policy." Instead, it is a Public Relations tool. Just as a person pulls out insect repellent to ward off swarms of insects, the NFL pulls out the Player Conduct Policy when the media begins to feed on its "bad boy" players.
The ability to wield the NFL Conduct Policy at his whim has given Roger the perception of a disciplinarian. Frankly, this label couldn't be further from the truth. A disciplinarian would wield the policy more often, more publicly and with universal application. Goodell has instead been more like a sniper, targeting victims for punishment with the policy.
Consider the following quote from The Washington Post: "The problem with the NFL's conduct policy is that it was designed not to halt off-field troubles as much as to squelch a looming public relations disaster that came after players like Tank Johnson and Pacman Jones were arrested two years ago. The policy was not an iron-clad set of rules and consequences but rather a fluid concept in which Commissioner Roger Goodell hands out punishment on a case-by-case basis."
If the NFL wants to create a true Policy, it needs to institute a penalty system (rules) that applies to all who break the tenets of the Policy. The system should include a pre-identified list of punishments that apply to known criminal activities. For instance, the league could institute a mandatory punishment of a 1 game suspension for a DUI conviction. Period. If you are convicted, you are suspended for a game. Or for a Domestic Assault or Battery charge, said player upon conviction will suffer a 4 game mandatory suspension. The NFL could then create a tiered system for repeat offenders, and perhaps include a "Three Strikes You're Out" rule as well.
As a public relations tool, the PCP is obviously aimed at protecting the NFL and it's revenue. And this is why, for the most part, we see PCP penalty levied in those cases that get the most coverage by the media and/or those cases that "potentially" could do the most damage to the shield.
Recently Goodell issued a memo to all teams, coaches, and GMS that read: "The Policy makes clear that NFL and club personnel must do more than simply avoid criminal behavior. We must conduct ourselves in a way that 'is responsible, that promotes the values upon which the league is based, and is lawful.' This standard reflects the recognition that the conduct and behavior of our players and other league and team employees is critically important. Whether it involves your team or another, these incidents affect us all -- every investigation, arrest, or other allegation of improper conduct undermines the respect for our league by our fans, lessens the confidence of our business partners and threatens the continued success of our brand."
I agree Roger, you must do more. As the Commissioner of the NFL, I encourage you to heed your own edicts. There are at least 200 unaddressed cases of arrests and citations you've conveniently overlooked.
To date, you've simply not done enough. Perhaps you should lead by example.

I keep bouncing between 148 and 154 apps. It's annoying, but hopefully it's going to go away. I'm assuming this has something to do with Google Play and ICS compatibility. Thanks

Trustees' Handbook For Managers
Alcohol Policy Faculty/Managers/Staff On-Campus
I. Introduction
This policy recognized the College's traditional commitment to its constituents' social autonomy, but clearly delineates the consequences of failing to recognize one's social responsibilities in exercising that autonomy. The policy neither condemns nor condones the legal, appropriate consumption of alcoholic beverages in any campus social context. It does however, recognize the College's responsibility to support and encourage persons in its community who seek to maintain a dynamic social climate in which alcohol use is not a primary focus.
The policy also recognized the responsibility and liability placed on individuals and organizations by Pennsylvania Act 31 (July 1988). Along with reiterating the parameters of legal consumption of alcohol established by prior legislation, Act 31 calls attention to the responsibility and liability of social hosts (individuals and organizations). It introduces a new term, pertinent to making alcohol beverages available. This term, "furnish," has been legally defined in the following manner: "to supply, give or provide to, or allow a minor to possess on premises or property owned or controlled by the person charged."
The legislation goes beyond the issue of underage drinking, dealing more with the area of responsibility and liability for those individuals and groups hosting functions at which alcohol is available. Such functions include but are not limited to Faculty Club events, departmental socials, development receptions, faculty/staff dinners and parties.
It should be noted that members of the College community who host outside group/personal events on campus are to follow the alcohol policy for "off-campus groups using Muhlenberg's facilities." Copies of this document are available through offices of the President's Senior Staff Members.
The following principles and regulations reflect these issues.
II. Principles and Procedures
- 1. Members of the College community must view the use of alcohol as a social convention which as a known potential for abuse. As a matter of policy, neither the College, as an institution, nor the constituent members of its community should tolerate or encourage any disorderly or unruly behavior that is alcohol induced.
- 2. Members of the College community must be alert to the propensity of alcohol to induce dependency, particularly in circumstances of repeated abuse. In recognition of the serious nature of alcohol abuse, and of the social disruption which it tends to cause, the College pledges itself to provide and to promote alcohol counseling and education programs.
- 3. Persons are no less accountable for personal behavior which is alcohol induced than they are when acting without the influence of alcohol. Any behavior resulting in the infringement of freedom, privacy, or property rights of others will be met with appropriate sanctions.
- 4. The campus should not be viewed as a sanctuary where members of the College community are protected from law enforcement activities. Wherever they are, on or off campus, individuals who violate the laws of the City of Allentown, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and of the United States risk action by appropriate city, state and federal authorities.
- 5. In engaging in the use of alcoholic beverages, one must acknowledge his/her responsibilities, not only on campus, but also beyond campus. The responsible use of alcohol requires knowledge of and compliance with current Pennsylvania and federal statutes regulation such use. A brief summary of some of the present laws are appended to this document.
III. Regulations
Members of the College community are responsible for compliance with the provisions of all city, Commonwealth and federal laws concerning consumption, purchase, and possession of alcohol. The College has established the following regulations governing the use of alcoholic beverages.
- 1. Members of the College community are welcome to bring social guests onto campus. Each person who does so, however, is responsible for the conduct of those guests, and for informing him/her of the College's Alcohol Policy and of the appropriate city, Commonwealth and federal laws governing alcohol use.
- 2. All social functions at the College at which alcoholic beverages are to be provided or distributed, must be approved in advance in writing by the vice president or dean responsible for the sponsoring group.
- 3. A member of the sponsoring group must be designated at the function's representative. This person will be the liaison with the appropriate vice president's or dean's office and will be the contact person during the actual function.
- 4. The following require special consideration by the vice president, dean, or designee who is responsible for the sponsoring group:
- a. devices containing five or more gallons of beer;
- b. a closing time beyond 2:00 a.m.;
- c. an outdoor location, including tailgating activities.
- 5. In accordance with the laws of the City of Allentown, no open containers of alcohol are allowed in open public areas.
- 6. No one shall be permitted to sell alcoholic beverages or tickets for alcoholic beverages or raffle alcoholic beverages as prizes, or to engage in any activities including but not limited to the sale of admission tickets, which may reasonably be construed as a sale or an indirect sale of such beverages.
- 7. No social function involving alcohol use shall be permitted unless suitable non-alcoholic alternatives and food, in adequate amounts, are also provided.
- 8. All functions must comply with occupancy regulations.
- 9. The consumption of alcoholic beverages at College athletic events is prohibited.
- 10. If the participants at a particular social function include individuals under the age of 21 years, the following steps must be taken:
- a. A certified trained server must be in charge of dispensing alcoholic beverages inaccordance to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the policies and regulations of Muhlenberg College. A list of such individuals will be available in the Office of the Dean of Students. The cost of these services will be the responsibility of the function's sponsor.
- a.i. Certified trained servers who violate the alcohol policy will be may also lead to suspension subject to the College's social judicial process. Conviction of such violations of the serving certification.
- b. A member of the College's Safety and Security staff must also be present. This individual will assist the sponsoring group with the monitoring of activities to assure their compliance with Commonwealth and federal law and College policy and regulation. The cost of these services will be the responsibility of the function's sponsor.
IV. General Notes
These regulations and procedural responsibilities are in force throughout the calendar year.
Noncompliance with any of these regulations during an actual event will result in the cessation of the function.
An Advisory Committee, comprised of student, faculty and staff representatives, will meet periodically to evaluate the effectiveness of the Alcohol Policy and consider appropriate modifications to it, as internal experience and external legislation dictate.
Students are governed by the College Student Alcohol Policy found in the student handbook.

Press Releases
Rogers Praises Senate Passage of Bill Calling on the Obama Administration to Designate the Haqqani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization
Rogers Praises Senate Passage of Bill Calling on the Obama Administration to Designate
Chairman Rogers today praised Senate passage of the Haqqani Network Terrorist Designation Act, a bill originally proposed by U.S. Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) and amended by the House two weeks ago. The Senate passed the amended House version by unanimous consent. The bill, now on its way to the President, expresses the view of Congress that the Haqqani network should be designated as a terrorist organization.
"This is a significant development, the House and the Senate have now spoken unanimously that the President should designate the Haqqani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. The Haqqanis are engaged in a reign of terror in Afghanistan and the network poses the single largest threat for IED's our soldiers face in that country. They actively plot and kill U.S. and allied soldiers and routinely harm innocent Afghan civilian men, women and children in their path. To better protect the lives of US soldiers, now is the time for action, not simply paperwork and talk. I applaud the Senate passage of this important bill, and I urge the President to sign in quickly into law," Rogers said.
Chairman Rogers has been at the forefront of Congressional efforts to designate the Haqqani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. The Haqqani Network is responsible for killing and injuring hundreds of U.S. servicemen and women in Afghanistan.
On May 11, 2012, Chairman Mike Rogers, Ranking Member C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger and their Senate counterparts, Chairman Dianne Feinstein and Vice Chairman Saxby Chambliss, called on the Obama Administration to designate the Haqqani Network as an FTO. And on June 27th, Chairman Rogers, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, and House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon introduced legislation to express the sense of Congress that the Haqqani Network be designated. Language from the Rogers/Ros-Lehtinen/McKeon bill was included in the bill that passed the House on July 17, 2012.
An official FTO designation is a critical step allowing the United States to more aggressively undermine the network's support. Specifically, an FTO designation permits the United States to freeze the Network's assets, keep those affiliated with the group from coming to the United States, and prosecute those individuals aiding or assisting the Network with the crime of providing material support to terrorism.

text: I've read that allowing comments on your blog can actually be beneficial for SEO purposes (not exactly sure on this). If so, wouldnt it then be beneficial to comment on your own blog with other relevant keywords in your text? Obviously using different IPs, but if comments are beneficial for SEO then Im assuming this would be also. Not sure how much it would be worth it though. Thoughts?

Some common tools used for windshield wiper repair include adjustable wrenches and screwdrivers, as well as leak sealant for patching cracks in the washer fluid tank. However, some of the most common windshield wiper repairs can be done without the use of any special tools.
Cleaning and replacing windshield wiper blades are two wiper repairs that can be done without the use of tools. To clean the blades, pull the wipers out from the windshield, and wipe the blades down with hot soapy water. To replaced worn blades, find the release tab on the underside of the wiper, and slide the blade off. Put the new blade on by sliding it down the length of the wiper.

Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, a visual response
Artist's Book, Prints and Travelling Exhibition.
This ongoing "work in progress" project by Des Kilfeather currently comprises the evolution of 30 images of scanned or photographed watercolour marks made on pages of a found, 1966 copy of Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. The work includes the original source book, with pencilled comments by a previous unknown reader.
James Joyces Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, a Visual Response, represents a continuation of Kilfeathers philosophical exploration of ethics and time. Referring to Aristotle and Joyce and drawing on his own personal experience of Irish Catholic culture, the work was, apparently contradicting his previous processes in that it was Kilfeathers emotional and reactionary response to his first reading of the book. Kilfeather absorbed the texts, made abstract watercolour marks onto pages of the book, plein air, high resolution photographed these then applied a process of semi-destruction of the book in the sea.
To resolve this phase, Kilfeather scanned pages containing anonymous handwritten comments, prepared digital files and published Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, a Visual Response, as an eBook. Materials and processes establish the connection between Joyces early 20th Century, Kilfeathers critical 1966 and contemporary culture.
The evolutionary objective is to further establish these connections using contemporary photogravure plate making with intaglio and mixed media digital printing with silk screen to create a series of original limited edition prints, the first of which, Page 221, has been completed and selected for the National Open Art Exhibitions 2013. Page 221 the intaglio print is being exhibited as part of NOA13 at the Royal College of Art London and Minerva Theatre Chichester in October and November 2013, click on About DP Kilfeather for dates.
Page 221 was editioned (7) in collaboration with master printmaker David Borrington of Dekkle Studios.
A sample from the collection of 30 digital prints is provided below; best viewed by clicking on the slideshow button.

Activision unveils plans for Marvel's anti-hero outing.
Darkly comical anti-hero Deadpool will see his videogame outing hit home consoles in the States on June 25th, with a European release to follow a few days later on the 28th.
Publisher Activision has promised that North American gamers who pre-order the game from Amazon will be gifted with a $5 Marvel comics voucher (via Digital Spy).
The game, developed by High Moon Studios, has billed itself as an action-brawler and squarly puts an emphasis on the self-mocking humour that series comic book is known for.
Check out the game's trailer below:
"We weren't actually planning on making a Deadpool game," said Peter Della Penna, boss of High Moon Studios in a statement.
"But, Deadpool came by the studio one day, said he was taking over, and that if I didn't hire Marvel writer Daniel Way pronto and make the most amazing Deadpool video game, he'd break both of our arms and beat us to death with them. I have kids, so we're making the game."
