"I don't know about any restrictions. On the contrary, we know that traffic through the Kerch Strait continues normally."While Russian shipping seems unaffected, Ukraine reports that ships bound for its Sea of Azov ports are still being denied access through the Kerch Strait.
"Sanctions conform to international law. In this case, we don't recognize those unilateral restrictions as legitimate sanctions because we deem them to be illegal. So it will probably be more correct to say 'limitations' or 'restrictions,' but not sanctions."Moscow has challenged the legitimacy of the term "sanctions" regarding Western measures to counteract Russian actions in Ukraine and beyond, calling them illegal. But when it comes to being an actor on the international stage, the law is something that Moscow appeals to selectively.
"We love and are proud of President Vladimir Putin, because he is a friend of Palestine and not only Palestine, but all the people who are seeking freedom. President Putin succeeded in restoring Russia's authority in the international arena and forced all to respect Russia."FalseDue to President Vladimir Putin's foreign policy, Russia has suffered significant losses in its global standingIndependent polls show trust and respect for Russia and its president has significantly decreased globally. Under Vladimir Putin's leadership, Russia has suppressed insurgencies in Chechnya and in Syria. Moscow has lost its membership or voting privileges in multiple international organizations.
"The U.S. president's National Security Adviser John Bolton stated on Wednesday at a press conference in Baku that the United States currently has no plans to impose additional sanctions against Russia."Despite what Russian media reported, John Bolton said the U.S. is still considering what it may be obliged to do in terms of additional sanctions under a statute related to chemical weapons attacks.
"In terms of volume, the Chinese economy has already become larger than the U.S. economy."While it is true that China has seen its healthiest year-on-year GDP growth, the country still has the second largest economy in the world, according to the International Monetary Fund.
"Miller emphasized that Gazprom is discussing with China an increase in [gas] deliveries via the Power of Siberia [pipeline] using only its own capacities. 'We can ourselves can [do it]. This is Gazprom's production capacity," he said… 'In the future, after [we succeed in supplying] the 30 billion [cubic meters a year], we can talk about an increase, but at this moment we are talking about 30 billion cubic meters'."MisleadingMiller's comments come amid major expenditures for construction of a gas pipeline that cannot meet the promised supply volumes.The construction of the Power of Siberia pipeline is in its final phase, but Gazprom will not be ready to deliver the promised volume by the set deadline because two oil and gas condensate fields needed for this have not yet been developed.
Would Visiting the U.S. Help Vladimir Putin 'Humanize' His Adversary? Fact: Putin Visited Nine Times
"Indeed it is arguable that without his prolonged visit to the U.S. in 1959, Khrushchev may not have been so willing to accommodate JFK during the Cuban Missile Crisis three years later in 1962 – the reason being that only in visiting the country or countries of his adversaries is a leader able to humanize it beyond the realm of geopolitical differences. In 2018, due to the unbounded anti-Russia fever that has Washington in its grip, it is highly unlikely that any such visit to the U.S. by Russian President Vladimir Putin will be taking place anytime soon, nor to Russia by his U.S. counterpart, President Trump. In this respect at least, the hard lessons of the twentieth century have been lost."Russian President Vladimir Putin has much more experience "visiting the country of his adversaries," with his nine publicly known visits to the U.S., than did Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, who only visited America once. Thus, the author's argument is baseless.
"The step (reducing U.S. Treasury Securities) is being considered a prudent approach directed towards insulating the country from the US attempt to weaponize the dollar."India has joined a number of other countries in reducing their holdings of U.S. Treasury securities recently. This is largely due to market factors, not "weaponization of the dollar."
"In our country, the average salary of women is 74% of the average salary of men. However, you can console yourself with the fact that in 2005 this figure was only 60%. It seems that there have been changes for the better. But the gap still persists, and it is large."TrueAccording to international statistics, there are only a few countries where the gap is greater than in Russia.If we proceed from Rosstat's estimates, the gap between the salaries of men and women in Russia is 28.3%. After shrinking to its lowest level in 2013 (25.8%), it has since increased.
When Putin Visited Depressing Siberian City, Russian TV Showed Footage of Moscow to Beautify its Report
"The city has changed dramatically in recent years; bicycle paths have appeared, the historical center has been restored. Now there's greenery everywhere. Omsk is becoming an eco-friendly, modern city."Not all the footage Vesti used in its report about Vladimir Putin's visit to Omsk was of Omsk. Russia's biggest TV channel showed footage of Moscow but said it was Omsk -- rated number four in Russia's ten most depressive cities
"On July 4, 2016, the Polish side temporarily suspended the Agreement on Local Border Traffic under the pretext of holding the NATO Summit in Warsaw and the World Youth Day in Krakow... The events that triggered the above actions by Warsaw have long passed. But the Polish side is not eager to end the impasse, which is very surprising…As of today, Poland does not show interest in resuming the LBT. As a result, people's interests on both sides of the border are affected."Partially TrueUnrestricted border crossing boosted local economies but Russia ruined it with its hostilities in UkraineOpen border policy and free movement of goods and people is one of the founding principles of the European Union. However, Russia's annexation of Crimea, armed conflict in Ukraine and buildup of troops inside Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova, abused the EU's willingness to open its borders to Russia.
"The proposed changes in the pension system will not only preserve the income levels of pensioners, but, most importantly, will ensure their sustainable, advancing growth."Likely falseEconomists say the reform is not comprehensive and cannot ensure sustainable retirementPutin's pension reform comments, experts say, were "full of inaccuracies and propaganda." The things that Putin did not say are the most essential for the sustainability of Russia's economy and ensured income for older generations.

At the age of 73, New York Times best-selling author Sylvia Browne is ready to tell the whole story of her extraordinary life. In Psychic, we meet the woman behind the public figure: from the child receiving her first visits from the spirit world to the teenager doubting her own sanity; from the new mother living through staggering highs and lows to the burgeoning celebrity, and, ultimately, the successful, happily married woman she is today. Filled with never-before-told stories and otherworldly encounters, Psychic is a riveting account of how Sylvia Shoemaker, a traditional girl from Missouri, became world-famous psychic Sylvia Browne.
Nothing is off-limits. Sylvia tells the little-known truths behind her three failed marriages, including physical abuse, bankruptcy, and legal troubles, and the financial and emotional damage they wreaked. She revisits her personal demons and describes her physical challenges, including her relatively recent discovery that she'd suddenly gone blind in one eye. And then there is the greatest surprise of all: Sylvia tells how, once she had reached her 70s, and believed her romantic life was over, the real Mr. Right finally - impossibly - showed up.
While the press has freely, often bitterly, weighed in on Sylvia's most painful stories, she has remained quiet...until now. Unlike any other book Sylvia has written, Psychic reaches deep beneath the surface of her life, including professional and personal experiences that she is sharing publicly for the first time. With candor, warmth, and a great deal of humor, Sylvia Browne has written the singularly captivating tale of a life lived in two worlds, filled equally with harsh earthly realities and mesmerizing spiritual insights.

Great author, fascinating story, terrific narrator
I have either read or listened to a few of Sylvia's books, and this is definitely my new favorite! I have a brand-new level of respect and love for Sylvia - all that she has been through, and she is still looking out for other people, caring for them, loving them, forgiving those who need it (even the former husband who forced her into bankruptcy and caused her public humiliation!)
I don't know that I could be as gracious - but then, after reading her book, I doubt I could live up to most of her humanitarian work and loving people. From the love and care given to the little girl who's mother basically abandoned her, leaving her in Sylvia's care - and Sylvia took her in and loved her and raised her as her own, to her strength in dealing with (and leaving) an abusive husband as soon as she saw even an inkling of a hint that he might start abusing their children, Sylvia has endured more hardships than many ever will, and come through it all with a shining, loving spirit, and a heart that loves God and desires to help her fellow man reach their full potential. I never knew she was a school teacher and found that really interesting - and I bet she was a great one!
The book is beautifully written, with humor, style, and grace; the story completely engrossing (I listened to the entire 8-hour book in 2 days). And although I really do like to listen to Sylvia read her own books (I love her low, gravelly voice that sounds much like my own - only better! LOL!), the narrator did a fantastic job, reading with great expression and very much in the same style that Sylvia would have read it herself - sometimes I would forget that I wasn't actually listening to Sylvia herself! Hillary Huber was really a perfect choice for narrator, if we must listen to someone other than Sylvia herself.
I know I'll be listening to this one again, and it has become an instant top-of-the-list favorite in my Audible collection!

very disappointed
What disappointed you about Psychic?
I expected a great deal more about her work with the police and actual stories of her work.and interesting readings
What was most disappointing about Sylvia Browne's story?
more about her and less about her craft...really not happy I had always loved seeing her on tv and this really disappointed me
Would you be willing to try another one of Hillary Huber's performances?
its not about the narration
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Psychic?
all of it
Any additional comments?
if you are expecting to get insight into her craft and how she came to use it and stories about her work law enforcement and people she read.....its not here

Not my cup of tea
I found this to be dull and lacking in information on the paranormal. Seems to be mostly about her failed marriages and legal issues.

really believed everything but the slime part.
Would you consider the audio edition of Psychic to be better than the print version?
I do I love listening to books I wish I could here some of her recordings while she under hypnosis.
What other book might you compare Psychic to and why?
Us IT reminds me f MY other book I bought about Pyschics very similar the way they started finding out they had this gift.
What about Hillary Huber's performance did you like?
Yes I imagined it was Sylvia reading she kind of sounds like Sylivia in fact I thought it was until I read this question
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes and I did all night and had to reread some just incase I fell asleep and missed any I will read again I'm positive.
Any additional comments?
I love how she introduced her family and friends and her how she too had hardships like everyone else.she very honest I can tell and even with all this media about how she is fake it all is cheap she said herself I'm not always right I m not perfect some how I think she got it mixed up the MOM dying first before her daughter was found I think her mother helped her daughter figure out how to escape after she died . I saw this happen on real housewives of Beverley hills she was so sue one lady s husband was cheating on her wife at a dinner party later finding out it wasn't her husband it was the hostess of the dinner party who ended up divorced. It sounds a little the same a death only it was the mother
.does that make any sense .no one is perfect except GOD. .IT JUST MADE ME MAD WHEN I SAW ALL THE MEDIA HYPE OVER A SIMPLE MIX UP .COME ON NOW.DON'T DISCREDIT SOMEONE WHO HAS HELPED MORE THAN THE FEW MISTAKES ALL HUMANS MAKE.

My NEW favorate audiobook...
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
YES, I love all the stuff she writes about, Angels, Ghosts, Spirits and my favorate Past Lives.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Sylvia Browne and her Grandma Ada.
What about Hillary Huber's performance did you like?
Yes she was wonderful, very clear. Very enjoyable. :)
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
All of it, i listened to it twice already, as soon as book finished I start at the begining straight away.
Any additional comments?
This is the first book by Sylvia Browne that i have read or listened to. It is now the first of many by Sylvia Browne. I am now going to buy another. :)

Entertaining, but I feel cheated
This is definitely Browne's most entertaining and well-written book thus far. Bravo!
However, I was hoping that she would have written more about the situation with her ex-husband Dal Brown ripping off all that money in a scandal which created a criminal problem for both him and the author.
After reading the book, I did some research, and it is clear she really downplays the entire incident in her recent book. It would have been nice to hear more from her side of the story regarding the incident. She should have used this book to face the issue head on so that there would be no doubt in the reader's mind that she had absolutely no knowledge of what her then-husband was doing in her name!

Amy needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 158 designs submitted by 39 freelance designers.
I'm in need of a logo to use on my personal business card and website.
I am looking for a logo that I can use as the centerpiece for my personal business card, stationary, and website needs. The logo needs to be professional, "quasi-conservative", but with a bit of an edge. How's that for bi-polar? I prefer a crisp, clean look, but do not want to exclude a contemporary/modern design or 2.0 flavor.
- The logo should be focused on font and color, with possibly some abstract graphic.
- I would like to have the "A" in Amy distinct enough in some way so that
I can just use the "A" for logo purposes at time, possibly
incorporating the circle of an @-sign with a capital A.
- I do prefer the "A" being capitalized.
- My tagline is "It's All About The A", but it doesn't have to be included in the logo.
- I would like the colors to be blues, greys, whites or silvers.
- Definitely no red, green or brown
- Don't want it cartoonish.

Who is one cartoon character that almost everybody knows of and loves? I'm talking about a grey rabbit that loves haunting his foes with a smirk, a phrase, and a carrot. Yes of course I'm talking about Bugs Bunny, but instead of doing another tutorial on this furry critter that lives in borrows under the ground, I wanted to give this lesson a different name. So today I will be showing you ""how to draw a Looney Toon", step by step. Now the correct way to spelling the words Looney Toon is in fact "Looney Tune". Don't ask me why this is so, it just is. Bugs is one of those characters that you fall in love with and stay a loyal fan of for ages. I have never once said to myself that he is old, outdated, or boring. The reason why I never made statements such as this is because none of them are true. The fact is Bugs Bunny is a cartoon character that is funny, loud, always new, and never boring. His personality is cocky, quirky, silly, and even series, which means Bugs is far from being ordinary, or plain. He is just straight out crazy and that is why I love him even in my young adult years. Anyways, this lesson is going to be based on Bugs, but I will be calling it "how to draw a Looney Toon" seeing how I have a few tutorials on Bugs Bunny already. Have fun people, and remember to embrace the craziness that he has to offer his ongoing growing audience. Peace!

Great Divide Brewing got unanimous approval from Denver City Council on Monday for a zoning change of three properties on Brighton Boulevard it hopes will be the future home to a new Great Divide brewery and tap room.
But the property now has three billboards owned by CBS, two of which still have years left on their leases and are in the way of the development. Great Divide owner and founder Brian Dunn said he is in negotiations with CBS to remove the billboards but may have to work around them.
"Our goal is to get rid of them," he said. "Currently, both signs are in the way of the building."
As the leases on the signs run out, the brewery can move them to areas of the 5.1 acre property that aren't in the way of $38 million development. One of the leases is a three-year term. The brewery hopes to open by 2015.

a map with you wherever you go with Microsoft Pocket Streets for Smartphone,
the street-level mapping guide for your Windows Mobile-based Smartphone.
Pocket Streets for Smartphone offers great map guide functionality right on your
Smartphone. Locate addresses, intersections and points of interest or customize
locations by inserting your own pushpins. Download maps of cities in the US,
Canada and Western Europe from the Pocket Streets web site, or create your own
maps using Microsoft desktop applications MapPoint, Streets & Trips or
AutoRoute. Once your maps have been synced to your Smartphone you can access
them when you need them most, when you are on the go.
Once you have copied a map to your Smartphone, search the map quickly by
using the Find Address or Find Place functions. If you don't know the entire
address, Pocket Streets accepts a partial address or company name and returns a
list of possible options. You can also visually roam around the map and look for
the "Points of Interest" icons. Pocket Streets maps contain many types of points
of interest including ATMs, restaurants, hotels, tourist attractions, even
shopping centers and auto service centers, that can be located visually or by
using the Find Place feature.
If you're having trouble deciding where to eat,
select Menu -> Find Place and type in whatever you're craving. Entering
"Italian" will return a list of restaurants with "Italian" in their name, and
entering "pizza" will return a list of pizza places in the neighborhood.
Pocket Streets for Smartphone is commercially available from Handango for US$
24.95 but unfortunately there no trial version available. However, if you
already used Pocket Streets with your Pocket PC before, you know what you will
get; if not it's worth to buy - as long as you already own MapPoint, Streets &
Trips or AutoRoute.

|From celebrities telling you not to vaccinate your kids to science fiction authors disputing global warming science -- it seems like everyone is an expert these days. With technology placing endless information at our fingertips, has 'expertise' changed its meaning? And how can ordinary people evaluate the competence of 'experts?' In this segment, we'll talk about whether there's been a decline in true expertise, and whether leveling the information playing field between 'experts' and 'non-experts' is necessarily a good thing.

I hope to know the classification of real forms of complex simple Lie algebras of types $A$, $D$, $E$ up to inner automorphisms.
Let $\mathfrak{g}_1$ and $\mathfrak{g}_2$ be real forms of a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We say that they are equivalent if there is an isomorphism $\mathfrak{g}_1 \to \mathfrak{g}_2$ which extends to an inner automorphism of $\mathfrak{g}$. However, there may be real forms which are isomorphic but not equivalent.
Where can we find the classification of such equivalence classes of real forms?

Since we didn't work with any other agencies, I don't feel qualified to recommend any of them. As with all countries, you hear horror stories from some agencies. You hear how some are completing adoptions unethically. You hear of children coming home whose stories just don't match up with what their agency told them. I've even heard of people given referrals for babies who haven't even been born yet! As we all know, pregnant moms in third world countries typically wouldn't make an "adoption plan" for their unborn child unless they were approached and that is just out and out illegal. And there are some agencies that are doing great work and are also committed to helping the children left behind in Congo. So my best advice is to do an insane amount of research before you choose and agency. Check out the reviews online. Talk to other parents who have used that agency- and I'm not talking about the parents that the agency tells you to talk to. Use the powers of the Internet to find them on your own and ask the hard questions. Not just the "how long did it take" questions, but the ones that make people uncomfortable. The "did you see anything that made you feel uncomfortable about the way the adoption was completed" and the "did you feel like officials in Congo were paid the appropriate amounts of money for the services they did" kinds of questions.
I think that those of us close to the program fear corruption in the system above all else. I know that one of the taboo topics in adoption is money. I think that it is because to the outside world it seems like we are talking about how much our children "cost". But to those in the process, it is vital to talk about costs because it is one of the fastest ways to spot corruption. For that reason, I'm posting today about the cost of our Congolese adoption in hopes that parents completing adoptions have a frame of reference to know if something is amiss. I'm hearing reports of adoptions from Congo costing about twice as much money as they should and it grieves me that so many are profiting on the misfortune of orphans along the way. As with all things, costs vary quite a bit- especially over time, so this is intended to be a guide and not a definitive declaration. I'll denote things that could vary with a star and explain them at the bottom.
Congolese Adoption Costs- Completed Feb. 2010
Agency Application $200
Homestudy $1500 *
USCIS filing fee/fingerprints/background checks $910
Congolese Attorney and Congo Court Costs/ translations $5500
Flight for one adult/one lap child $2550 **
Taxi and Daily Escort in DRC $725
US Embassy Appointment $400
Accomodations and meals for one adult/one child for 1 week $1000
Foster Care for one month/child medical care $250
Adult Vaccines and Visa Entry $900
Passport for One Child $375
Stipend to Orphanage $3500 ***
Travel Insurance/Western Union wiring fees $350
DGM fee to get exit clearance $50 ****
Total costs to adopt one child from DRC $18,210
A few notes:
* Homestudy fees vary greatly from state to state. We decided that every agency would eventually give us the report that we needed so we used the one in our state that was the cheapest.
** Flights now are way more expensive than they were in 2010. In many instances, you can expect to pay about twice as much for an international flight.
*** Orphanage Stipend. Typically, I'm not pro-orphanage stipend. I think that if orphanages expect to get stipends it can sometimes cause them to "find" babies to fulfill a "need". However, because we knew that the particular orphanage that our son was from and were comfortable with the transparency they showed in accounting and proving the parentage and orphan status of children that were being adopted, we felt 100% confident that supporting our son's orphanage was the right thing to do. His orphanage is under the control of the church denomination that we attend and we know the volunteers that travel there regularly and knew without hesitation that the orphanage stipend was not used in a corruptible manner.
**** DGM fee. I highlighted this bit of information particularly because this is the posted amount that DGM requires to issue an exit clearance for your adopted child to leave the country. Often it takes a long time (sometimes several weeks) to be issued this clearance. If your agency is expecting you to pay more than the posted amount for this exit clearance, you need to think long and hard about weather or not someone was bribed to expedite clearances.
A few words about "agency fees". You will notice that we didn't pay anything except the application fee to our organization to assist with our adoption. They are all volunteer and do not require to be paid for their services. I get that this is a rarity in the adoption world. I do think that agency directors and people on the ground working to help get your children home do deserve to be paid. They absolutely deserve to be compensated for their time and expertise. Just make sure that you know up front what these costs will be and ask that they be itemized so that you can be rest assured that the fees are not exorbitant. While I do believe that people working in the adoption industry deserve to make a living, I do not feel that it is ethical to profit from the plight of the fatherless in the world. Only you can determine if agency fees are fair and ethical.
I hope that this information helps families that are walking this journey to have a jumping off point. It is often complicated and overwhelming. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments section and I'll do my best to put together a Congo adoption FAQ post next week.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Oklahoma Labor Commissioner Mark Costello says a proposed U.S. Department of Labor rule that would govern child farm workers is an attack on the rural family farm and ranch.
The federal agency is proposing that family farms or ranches that are legal partnerships or corporations not be allowed to employ children 16 years of age or younger in farm work that is deemed hazardous.
Costello says that would bar young teens from riding on a tractor and herding and branding cattle. He also says grandparents would be prohibited from having their grandchildren work on the family farm.
Costello says the proposal could damage agricultural jobs, hurt American agricultural competitiveness and damage the cultural integrity of the rural family. He also says the idea threatens to criminalize traditional family farm life.

Maniac818 and @
Kromindor played very well throughout the day. They won a prize of two $20 PlayStation Store gift card codes, one each.
The first map of the finals was Naboo. "Coming Soon" took the first round on this map but TDW was able to come back for three rounds in a row, winning 3-1. The second map was Jabba's Palace. TDW were able to win on Villains 3-0. TDW closed out the tournament on Heroes on Bespin, with a score of 3-1.
Naboo - TDW win 3-1
Jabba's Palace - TDW win 3-0
Administrator's Palace - TDW win 3-1
Great effort by both teams to make it to the finals, and again congratulations to Tidal Waves, the Hero Showdown champions!
Lastly, thank you to all the members of all 10 teams that signed up for this tournament. I hope you all enjoyed competing. Most of the team leaders were on top of telling me map scores and we were able to finish the whole tournament in one day. This tournament went much better than I expected for a queue snipe test tournament. I even think we could have been a bit faster if we did some small things differently.
We couldn't stream / commentate any matches because this game doens't have a spectator mode, but some players recorded their own perspectives. The finals can be seen at this link:

BGTG 67 - Jan 1, 2007 - Pretty, Wooden Abstracts
I've surprised myself by becoming more and more interested in abstract games over the years. However, as I discuss in this show, that's due to discovering a wide range of abstracts that don't make my head hurt. You see, I've never been a fan of chess, go, logic puzzles, or anything else that requires such hard thinking. It's just not fun for me. Even then, it's not the analysis that I find as bothersome as the need to look multiple moves ahead. In this podcast, I talk about some abstracts that are considerably lighter than those, either through a smaller strategic "game space," imperfect information, or multiple players.
