On World Refugee Day, UNHCR Reports Highest Number of Refugees Worldwide in Fifteen Years
(HN, June 20, 2011) - June 20th is always the United Nations globally recognized `World Refugee Day'. But this year the day holds significance for more people on the planet than in the last 15 years.
That's because the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) says that as of last year, 43.7 million people around the world have been displaced from their countries by war, conflict or persecution.
Adding insult to injury, eighty percent of those refugees fleeing the safety of their own homes are being kept safe with food, shelter and water by some of the world's poorest nations, and UNHCR is warning that these countries cannot continue to afford this cost alone.
This past weekend António Guterres, the United Nations high commissioner for refugees, spent time with the actress Angelina Jolie meeting with some of the refugees who most recently fled Libya, Tunisia, Bahrain and other Middle East nations currently experiencing internal turmoil which has forced thousands to stream across their nations borders for other countries such as Turkey and Malta.
In a statement reflecting `World Refugee Day', Guterres says, "Fears about supposed floods of refugees in industrialized countries are being vastly overblown or mistakenly conflated with issues of migration. It's poorer countries that are left having to pick up the burden."
UNHCR's 2010 Global Trends report, flags Pakistan, Iran and Syria as the world's biggest hosts of refugees by amount of people who have fled there – totaling three million collectively that the countries have taken in; 1.9 million refugees are being housed in Pakistan alone.
And the world's refugee populations are only expected to grow as predicted by UNHCR, next year and beyond. In 2010, the refugee agency projected that 747,000 locations places were needed to resettle the global flow of refugees, and the 22 countries that accept such displaced people, led by the United States, Canada, Australia, Sweden and Norway, took in only 98,000 people. In 2011, UNHCR estimates that 805,000 locations for refugees to be resettled will be needed.
The developed nation housing the largest refugee population is Germany, hosting 594,000 people. Guterres urged industrialized nations to increase the number of people they accept who are seeking asylum, lessening the burden on already poor and overwhelmed countries, some whom, like Syria, are going through their own internal strife and seeing its own people flee to Turkey.
Civilians fleeing the fighting in north-west Syria has picked up significantly in the last two weeks with more than 9,600 people now living in four camps managed by Turkey and the Turkish Red Crescent.
Not only are there more refugees in the world today but more people are staying in a `refugee state' much longer than ever before. Some like those in the Palestinian territories and elsewhere spend their whole life in refugee camps.
In 2010 for instance, 7.2 million people, the highest number in ten years, had been exiled from their home countries for five years or more; mostly due to the length of the conflict they were fleeing from, which prevented people from returning to their homes. Only 197,600 refugees, were able to return to their homes in 2010, the lowest number since 1990.
UNHCR puts the official number of refugees who registered with it last year, along with the agency for Palestinian refugees at 15.4 million in 2010; with another 27.5 million people – the highest level in ten years - having been displaced by conflict within their own home countries' borders.

Inquiry Question
The lesson is based on the National Register of Historic Places registration file, "Thurmond Historic District" (with photographs), National Park Service documents, and other source materials about railroading in the New River Gorge. Cynthia Doktorski, former Supervisory Park Ranger at New River Gorge National River, wrote the lesson. Fay Metcalf, education consultant, and the Teaching with Historic Places staff edited it. TwHP is sponsored, in part, by the Cultural Resources Training Initiative and Parks as Classrooms programs of the National Park Service. This lesson is one in a series that brings the important stories of historic places into the classrooms across the country.

Blackest Bootlegs is the new offshoot label from Blackest Rainbow releasing limited edition live recordings by a host of artists on a irregular basis. Debut release by Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno is scheduled for release in Septemeber 2011.
SWAN-HUNTER - Live Sheffield 3rd July 2012
Blackest Bootlegs - £4.00
Limited edition CDR, the third release on Blackest Bootlegs. 12 minutes of double guitar worship, static doom effects, and insane vocal through two trashed mobile phones. Swan-Hunter is the solo project of Adam Denton, frequent collaborator of Cameron Deas (in Deas & Denton) and one half of Trans Human. Recorded live on July 3rd in Sheffield.
ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE & THE COSMIC INFERNO - Shakespeare From The Cosmic Inferno 2008 2xLP
Debut release on our new Blackest Bootleg labels releasing live recordings. The bootleg was recorded back in August 2008 at The Shakespeare in Sheffield, a great venue that played host to Acid Mothers first show in Sheffield, and it was so packed, the floor was literally moving underneath the crowd, the room was like a sauna, every single person dripping with sweat, it was one of the busiest shows I'd been too in Sheffield in a long time. I remember there being some total hippies down the front going so nuts, it was like their dream come true to see Acid Mothers. And, of course, it was INSANELY loud. This release captures that, the sheer volume AMT were playing at for the size of the room was crazy. I remember several months after, a guy I know said he'd heard there was a recording of it, and then a few months from then he said he'd managed to get a hold of it and he'd got a copy for me. After months I managed to get it, it was on DVD as it was too long to fit on a CD, so the guy had said he'd literally said he'd sat in front of the TV and listened to the 80+ minutes staring at a blank screen. That must've been a hell of an experience. I managed to get a hold of it in the end, and edit to a perfect 79 minute release just cutting of a few minutes of the encore. This double LP collects those 79 minutes of the recording, 6 tracks including two awesome versions of Pink Lady Lemonade, and other classics like Heart of Earth and Space Disco. The line up for the show was Pika (Afrirampo), Tabata Mitsuru, Hugashi Hiroshi, Shimura Koji, and Kawabata Makoto. Both Pika and Shimura played drums, so the set was seriously heavy as you will find out when you get this spinning... Be warned there are a couple of points in this where the sound goes a little crackly and distorted, but only very, very briefly, and it does get pretty loud at a few points. Just like a true bootleg should be! Edition of 250 copies on printed card sleeves featuring cover shot of the band. Pressed on 140gram virgin vinyl.
NATURAL SNOW BUILDINGS - Live Sheffield London 2012
Live boots from Natural Snow Buildings March 2012 UK tour. Sets from Sheffield and London, recorded and mixed by Ben Nash. Minimal information bootleg style sleeves with live photo of the band on the cover. Edition of 250 hand numbered copies. STREAM HERE

CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) Devon Collier had 16 points and Oregon State held off a second-half run by Washington for a 74-66 win on Wednesday night.
Eric Moreland added 12 points and 10 rebounds off the bench for the Beavers (11-8, 1-5 Pac-12), who saw a 20-point first-half advantage shrink to one but never gave up the lead.
C.J. Wilcox had 23 points and seven rebounds and Aziz N'Diaye added 10 points and 10 rebounds for Washington (12-7, 4-2).
Washington chipped away at a 10-point halftime deficit early in the second half.
The Huskies closed within 41-35 as Wilcox closed out a 6-0 run with a shot from outside.
A Wilcox 3-pointer later made it 49-45 Oregon State. Wilcox hit another from 3-point range with 12:16 left that got Washington within 53-52.

Oregon State later scored five straight points, with Ahmad Starks' 3-pointer and Collier's two free throws making it 66-57 with 5:11 remaining.
Washington got no closer than six from there, and the Beavers led by as many as 10 in the closing minutes.
Oregon State shot 26 of 59 overall from the field, while Washington was 25 of 53.
Oregon State jumped to an 11-1 run behind five points from Starks.
The Beavers, on their way to their most first-half points in a Pac-12 game this season, kept the pressure on, going ahead 20-9 on Olaf Schaftenaar's 3-pointer.
Oregon State took its biggest lead of the half at 34-14 on Collier's dunk off a steal with 5:28 before intermission.

Being Stopped or Arrested
Being stopped, questioned or arrested by the police
The police have powers to stop, question and search you – depending on the situation. If necessary, they can arrest you if they believe you have committed a crime. Find out when you can be stopped by the police, what happens if you're searched or arrested and your rights.
Being stopped and questioned by the police
A police officer or a police community support officer (PCSO) has the right to ask you:
- what you're doing
- why you're in an area and/or where you're going
The officer may record your ethnicity and you may be given a record showing the:
- date and time you are stopped
- officer's name and police station
A police officer does not have to be in uniform (but must show you their identity card). A PCSO must be in uniform.
Being stopped and searched by the police
You can be stopped and searched when a police officer has 'reasonable grounds' to suspect that you're carrying:
- illegal drugs
- a weapon – for example, a knife
- stolen property
- something which could be used to commit a crime – for example, a crowbar
Being searched doesn't mean you are being arrested.
'Reasonable grounds' for stop and search – an example
You are seen late at night close to where a burglary has taken place. The police see you're trying to hide something that seems to be the same size and description of the item stolen in the burglary.
You could be stopped and searched in this situation.
Being stopped and searched without any reasonable grounds
You can be stopped and searched without any reasonable grounds if a police officer thinks that:
- serious violence could take place
- you're carrying a weapon or have used one
Before you're searched
Before you're searched the police officer must tell you:
- their name and police station
- what they expect to find – for example, drugs
- the reason they want to search you – for example, it looks like you're hiding something
- why they are legally allowed to search you
- that you can have a record of the search – if not possible at the time, how you can get a copy
How the search is carried out
An officer can ask you to take off more than your jacket or gloves, and anything worn for religious reasons – like a veil or turban. If they do, they must take you somewhere out of public view.
If the officer wants to remove more than jacket and gloves they must be the same sex as you. This may happen at a police station (even if you're not arrested).
What happens if you're charged with a crime?
If you're charged with a crime, it means the police suspect you are involved in the crime you were arrested for. Find out what happens if you have to stay in custody or are released on bail before going to a magistrates' court.
If you're charged with a crime
The custody officer at the police station tells you that you're being charged. You are given a 'charge sheet' which sets out the details of your suspected crime.
The police decide whether you:
- can go home until the court hearing – but may have to follow certain rules, known as 'bail'
- are kept in police custody until the court hearing, known as 'remand'
All criminal cases start in a magistrates' court.
Bail – what it is
Bail means you are allowed to leave police custody while your crime is investigated further, or while you wait for your court hearing.
There are two different types of bail:
- police bail – this is given at the police station after you're charged
- court bail – this is given at your hearing at a magistrates' court

Patrick J. Mongeon, a retired construction superintendent and Vietnam veteran, died Oct. 20 from kidney failure at Anne Arundel Medical Center in Annapolis. He was 60.
Mr. Mongeon was born in Baltimore and raised on Marshall Street. After graduating in 1970 from Mount St. Joseph High School in Irvington, he enlisted in the Air Force.
"He served several tours of duty but never talked about it. He suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome," said his daughter, Rebecca Mongeon of Elkton.
After being discharged from the Air Force, Mr. Mongeon returned to Baltimore, where he worked for several construction companies as a superintendent.
Mr. Mongeon's career came to an end three years ago, when he was sitting in his car at a traffic light near the Veterans Administration Hospital in downtown Baltimore.
"He was hit from behind by a negligent driver and was run over," his daughter said.
"We were told by many doctors that he would not survive. He did though, but had multiple horrific injuries including crushed kidneys, which resulted in him needing dialysis for the rest of his life, and a crushed pelvis that resulted in him being in a wheelchair," said Ms. Mongeon.
Mr. Mongeon spent five months recuperating at Johns Hopkins Hospital, before being released.
He was divorced in 2001 from the former Christine Currotto, whom he married in 1989.
"He needed 24-hour care, and my mother came back from Dallas to care for him. They moved in together and she began taking care of him," said his daughter. "They had remained best friends and had talked about getting remarried.
"He suffered a lot of illnesses over the last three years that resulted from the accident," said Ms. Mongeon. "In June, he was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. He basically died of multisystem organ failure, stage four cancer and bilateral pneumonia."
The Hanover, Anne Arundel County, resident had been an avid fisherman and enjoyed riding motorcycles and restoring a vintage Ford Falcon.
At his request, no services will be held and his cremated remains will be buried at sea, his daughter said.
In addition to his former wife and daughter, Mr. Mongeon is also survived by a son, Sean Mongeon of Arlington, Texas; his mother, Catherine Mongeon of Glen Burnie; a brother, Michael Mongeon of Glen Burnie; a sister, Joanne Weingert of Brooklyn; and four grandchildren.

Fun in Moscow with an FF
The final day of Kamui Kobayashi's trip to Moscow got underway with a visit to the Ferrari showroom, where the Japanese driver met some of the best Prancing Horse customers.
There's growing interest in the marque in Moscow and indeed in all of Russia and the Tretyakovskiy proyezd showroom is something of a centre of attention for all its fans. Events such as Moscow City Racing contribute to bringing the public closer to Ferrari. Next year that interest will grow still more with the first ever staging of a Formula 1 World Championship event at Sochi. In the meantime, the FF, Ferrari's first four wheel drive car, is enjoying great success on the Russian market and even Kamui was keen to give it a run in the Muscovite traffic.

Antidiarrheal medicines, such as atropine and diphenoxylate
(such as Lomotil) and loperamide (such as Imodium), slow intestinal movements.
This allows stool to stay in the intestine longer, allowing more water to be
absorbed, which makes the stool formed rather than watery when it is
passed. Antidiarrheals can help with diarrhea in IBS.1
Atropine and diphenoxylate may cause dry skin, itching, dizziness, drowsiness,
nausea, or vomiting. Psychological dependence may occur in high doses.
Loperamide may cause abdominal (belly) pain, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, or
dizziness. These side effects are usually minor and do not last long. This
medicine may not help people who have alternating periods of diarrhea and
constipation, because it may make the constipation worse.
These medicines may be dangerous if they are used by people who
have certain types of intestinal infections or who have
inflammatory bowel disease. You should not use these
medicines if you have a fever or if you have blood in your stool.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference
is not available in all systems.)

text: I recently received a pattern from my September secret pal to make a bow tuck tote. After reading the instructions I think I've scared myself. I'm new to the world of quilting and sewing and I'm just wondering are bow tucks really hard to make? Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I know a bunch of you have made them and they've turned out beautiful.

Harvard opens play at the San Diego Classic II Friday against Colorado State (Photo: Mike Slade)
The Particulars
The Harvard softball team hits the road for its annual spring break trip March 15-20 in San Diego, Calif. The Crimson will take part in the San Diego Classic II tournament and will also take on Loyola Marymount in a doubleheader.
About The Crimson
Harvard wings west with a 3-6 record on the year, having competed in tournaments in Florida and South Carolina already this year. A trio of sophomores have sparked the Crimson offense this season, as it ranks within the team's top four in hits. Outfielder Andrea Del Conte has been a major factor for Harvard, leading the team with 10 hits, a .400 batting average and .423 on-base percentage. She is also a perfect 6 for 6 in steals and is second on the team with five runs scored.
Classmates Emily Gusse and Katherine Lantz have seven hits apiece, with Lantz scoring a team-best seven runs in nine games. Gusse also ranks second on the squad with six RBI. Junior slugger Kasey Lange is providing the pop once again for Harvard, bashing a pair of home runs in last weekend's Winthrop Invitational and driving in a team-high seven runs this season.
Harvard has adopted a pitching-by-committee approach in the early going with rookies Morgan Groom and Jamie Halula and sophomore Gabrielle Ruiz seeing nearly equal time in the circle. Groom has been solid in her first collegiate season, hurling 17 innings and posting a 2.47 earned-run average to go along with 17 strikeouts. Each pitcher has a win to their credit, while Halula has the slight edge in strikeouts with 21 in 22 innings pitched.
Last Time Out
The Crimson put together a 1-3 record in a two-day stay at the Winthrop Adidas Invitational last weekend. While the Crimson opened the tournament with a 5-4 loss to Delaware State, it quickly rebounded with a decisive 5-1 win over North Carolina A&T. Groom surrendered back-to-back doubles in the second which resulted in North Carolina A&T taking a 1-0 lead, but it was smooth sailing from that point on. She would surrender just one hit in the final five innings and register eight strikeouts in the complete-game victory. Lange ripped a three-run homer to center in the bottom of the third and drove in her fourth run of the day on an RBI groundout.
On Day 2 of the tournament, Harvard dropped a 9-1 decision to Western Illinois in the first game and narrowly fell to host Winthrop, 5-4, in the event finale. Del Conte and Katherine Appelbe recorded two hits apiece in the loss to the Eagles.
About The San Diego Classic II
Harvard's spring break tournament destination features a large field and some of the top talent in the country. One of 16 teams competing, Harvard opens play Friday against Colorado State and will go on to play San Jose State, Long Beach State, Miami (Ohio) and San Diego. At the 2012 San Diego Classic II, the Crimson went 2-1 before having its final day of competition rained out.
After The Tournament
Following its stay in San Diego, the Crimson will return to the Northeast to take on Syracuse in a pair of games March 23-24. The showdown between the Crimson and Orange is being billed as the "Duel in the Dome," as the games will be played in the Carrier Dome.

Triple A is A-OK
Like a kazillion other Colorado drivers, the current deep freeze caused my car battery to go dead. Which was mildly surprising, because I drive a Saab and they seem to thrive in winter weather.
I had Christmas money burning a hole in my pocket and when a patch of sunshine appeared on Saturday I decided to stimulate the economy at the Cherry Creek Shopping Center. But the car wouldn't start.
So I called AAA, only to have a recording tell me that the service was experiencing heavier than usual traffic and that unless my situation was urgent to please call again later.
The recorded voice also said that service requests could be placed online, at the AAA website (AAAcolorado.com).
Since it was around 3 in the afternoon, I figured that by the time the driver would arrive it would be too late to head to the mall. So when I filled out the online form, I asked if a battery charger guy could come on Sunday, before 1 p.m. Hey, why not?
Shortly after 8 a.m. Sunday, my telephone rang. It was Kelly from AAA, saying my request had been received and that someone from Battery Express would be there within the hour. Sure enough, he was.
Unfortunately, the battery in my Saab was deader than dead and needed replacing. A bunch of other stuff having to do with the alternator and the starter and some other thing also had gone on the fritz, but instead of telling me to get back in touch with AAA and start the process again, the guy in the van from Battery Express called AAA himself and requested a tow.
Within minutes, Kelly, who'd called that morning, was back on the line, saying a tow truck was en route. Ten minutes later, the tow truck arrived and the driver had my Saab loaded up for a ride to Mike Shaw.
The point of this post is to commend AAA for speedy, professional and courteous service. I'd expected to wait days because of the inclement weather; come to think of it, I've waited much, much longer for a jump-start or tire change in "regular" weather.
I've been a AAA member since 1968. I got my money's worth on Sunday.

Logan Henderson of Big Time Rush Crashes Motorcycle
Yikes! Logan Henderson of Big Time Rush had a scary motorcycle crash last week. Thankfully, something special saved him.
Henderson credits his lucky Marc Jacobs jacket for saving his life. The Nickelodeon star was cruising along the Hollywood and Vine intersection in Los Angeles on his way to the studio when a car suddenly turned right in front of him. Henderson swerved hard to avoid a collision, and he was thrown from his own bike. So scary!
Though he got a fair amount of scrapes and bruises from sliding along the asphalt, Henderson's back was spared because of his jacket's protection. TMZ reports that Henderson was walking, standing and otherwise fine, but his bike will be in the repair shop for a while following the incident. We're glad he's OK!
After his band was dissed by the American Music Awards, we bet he's actually feeling pretty lucky today.
