Greece has managed to achieve a strong economy that is growing fast after the implementation of stabilization policies in recent years. Greece remains a net importer of industrial and capital goods, foodstuffs, and petroleum. Leading exports are manufactured goods, food and beverages, petroleum products, cement, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The people of Greece enjoy a high standard of living, reflected by the country's high Human Development Index and Quality-of-life index.
Greece realigned its economy as part of EU membership that began in 1981. Greek businesses are adjusting to competition from EU firms and successive governments have had to liberalize their economic and commercial regulations and practices. However, Greece had been granted waivers from certain aspects of the EU's 1992 single market program.
Historically, Greece has been a net beneficiary of the EU budget. Net payments to Greece totaled $4.9 billion in 1998, representing 4.2% of GDP. Net inflows were estimated at about $5 billion in 1998. Greece received substantial support from the EU through the Delors II package. In July 1994, the Greek government and the EU agreed on a final plan which provided Greece 16.6 billion ECU for the period, of which 14 billion ECU was from the Community Support Framework and 2.6 billion ECU was from the Cohesion Fund. That level of assistance continued in 1999 financing major public works and economic development projects, competitiveness and human resources programs, the improvement of living conditions and also addressed disparities between poorer and more developed regions of the country. Greece is set to receive 20.1 billion euros of funds from the EU's budget, or approximately 1,8% of GDP.

My life is utter chaos.
Can anyone relate? We're in the process of moving my daughter into her own room, which means the upstairs of my house is topsy-turvy as I reorganize and consolidate. It'll be well worth it if I'm ever done, but right now I could really use about twenty more organizer totes.
And that's a good thing, too, since I went to a spa/pedicure party tonight with friends from church. I so needed the chance to relax, act crazy, and just be with girlfriends. People who just give my funny looks when I get a bit too hyped on lack of sleep and caffeine.
So what does this have to do with totes you ask? Excellent question, I say.
The emails about the spa night made it clear that I needed to bring a tub to soak my feet in. No problem me thinks until I realize I don't have one. And of course at this point I'm on my way to a board meeting which I will leave to get to the spa thingy. This, too, is no problem since there is a grocery store on the way. I'll run in, grab any last minute things my wonderful hostess needs and grab a tub. No can do. I walk the aisles of the grocery store three times. Surely there must be a tub somewhere in the twenty aisles. Nada. Zilch. Nothing.
Becoming a touch frazzled -- what a great word -- I check out with my four apples and head back to the car. Fortunately there's a drug store across the parking lot. Certainly that store will have organizers that will work for soaking my tootsies. After two laps I finally asked an employee. Yep, they had em if I wanted ten gallon tubs -- a bit much think I.
Oh, by the way, we have these five packs of shoe totes. Perfect! I check out, dodge raindrops and drive to the spa night.
Now picture the sight with me. I'm walking through stores, looking for totes, keeping an eye on my watch as I quickly run out of time, and talk to my sister about one of my manuscripts that she just read. Frazzled hardly began to describe me by the time I reached my friend's. But God is good. There was the perfect mix of people there, so I could relax and be goofy. Okay, so I went a touch over the edge a couple times. But I relaxed -- with each foot soaking in its own plastic tote box.

|Central Coffee Roasters is a family run
business located in the Blue Ridge Mountains
in Rappahannock County, Virginia. Our select
green coffee beans arrive from plantations and
co-operatives throughout the mountains and rain
forests in the coffee growing belt of the world.
Because we are a micro roaster, we value the earnest hardworking farmers from whom we buy our raw product. We believe that their dedicated stewardship produces the highest quality beans for our roasts. We know they grow with a conscience for the world we live in. We also believe we are, in our small way, doing our part to help improve their living and working conditions. We share knowledge with our coffee customers about the growing and cleaning methods used by the farmers and small co-operative processing facilities. We are a little part of a big picture, as are our farming partners, our coffee brokers and resourcers. We know that our coffee is grown well and roasted with care and thought, and that you, the consumer will reap those benefits in every bag of coffee that you buy and use.
Coffee is an extraordinary beverage to be had all over the world. Many times it represents hospitality and a sense of welcoming. Coffee has a rich history behind its changes through cultures and styles. In its early days of Ethiopia and Yemen, the seeds were used as food and the cherries were used for a drink, qishr. Turkish coffee requires the coffee to be ground into a fine powder and brought to a boil several times in a long small copper pot, or ibrik, making a thick syrupy drink. While Italians drink coffee, or espresso, all throughout the day, France had coffee houses all over with over 3000 in Paris by 1800. Germany, Austria and Cuba all share sweetened versions with condensed milk or whipped cream. Other areas add spices such as cinnamon, cardamom or cloves.

Most ferrets get along reasonably well with cats and dogs, though you need to watch closely. Likewise, small children and ferrets, both of which are very excitable, can sometimes be a dangerous combination.
It is best to purchase a ferret which has already been fixed and descented. Breeding is best left to experts. Females which are not fixed can develop a fatal bleeding problem if they go into heat and are not bred.
Because of the high protein requirement, ferrets up to three or four years should be fed kitten food or a "growth" food. After that, switch to a regular cat version.
Ferrets are very prone to dental disease, so dry food is best. Unless your pet is overweight, you can keep the bowl full and let him nibble at his leisure.

Nessel does not have a cookie-cutter approach to our renovations. Each deal has a different situation in terms of age/style, rehab budget, floorplan sizes/layout, existing amenities, property layout/size, and target renter. We take all of these into account in coming up with our plan. We then go through our considerable list of already tested renovation ideas, as well as our files of photos of rehab ideas (from hotels to retail to high-rises) to come up with the look we are shooting for. The final product demonstrates great care and thoughtfulness, as well as cost consciousness. Nessel focuses particularly on under-utilized property spaces, which can be used for business centers, kids clubs, playgrounds, exercise rooms, clubrooms & apartments. Our signature amenities include dog parks, life-size chess sets, tanning beds, billiards rooms, business centers, exercise facilities, fire pits, vegetable gardens and common area Wi-Fi. For ambiance, we like to strategically place statues, water fountains, color LED lights, barbeques, hammocks and wind chimes through our properties.
A key ingredient to our success has been a la carte pricing for upgrades. For instance, our base rate for a one bedroom may start at only $500/mo. However, we will charge a premium of $35 for stained concrete flooring, $40 for stainless appliances, $30 for a washer-dryer and $30 for a yard. Soon, a unit that was renting for $0.75/SF is renting for $0.90/SF+. This enables us to attract a wider swath of people who have different cost parameter and allows us to take a somewhat stable property and push rents without pushing out old residents. Further, these add-ons frequently have a payback of 12 months or less.

Will peace prevail at US-Russia summit?
The winds of change or just a light breeze — what will we witness in the US-Russia bilateral relationship in the coming weeks? A few days ago, the idea of holding a meeting between American and Russian officials had been a mirage, full of fake news and political jokes, but now this has turned into reality and preparations have already started for a Donald Trump-Vladimir Putin Summit on July 16 in Helsinki in neutral Finland.
The announcement came on the heels of US National Security Adviser John Bolton's visit to Moscow last week. The Kremlin considers Bolton to be a personal envoy of Trump and perfectly understands his importance in the White House. "Your visit to Moscow gives us hope that we can at least take the first step to reviving full-blown ties between our states," Putin told Bolton, sending the message to Washington that Russia is ready for talks. Bolton replied that the US is also ready.
During his visit, Bolton held talks with Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Syria, Ukraine and "the sorrowful state of our bilateral relations," as described by Putin's spokesperson Dmitry Peskov. Despite his hawkish reputation, Bolton became the first US peace dove to come to Moscow.
The US-Russia bilateral agenda is overloaded with problematic issues and mistrust, though at the same time the two countries have mutual interests that might serve as a bridge to improved ties.
Maria Dubovikova
Since the start of the escalation between the two countries, the channels of communication and coordination have been significantly reduced, practically to zero, with only talks on Syria, Ukraine and other issues of significant importance going ahead. In the current circumstances, to talk with no result is much better than to keep silent. The US-Russia bilateral agenda is overloaded with problematic issues and mistrust, though at the same time the two countries have mutual interests that might serve as a bridge to improved ties.
However, Russia has no illusions regarding the prospects of a thawing of the bilateral relationship. Trump is playing his own games, manipulating other countries, and introducing business models of management and "cooperation" into the sphere of international relations. Being in the White House, he is doing what he knows and does best — business and bargains, seeking the maximum profit. The promises and guarantees given by the US administration are not reliable and not trusted globally. However, in the current circumstances the international community has no other choice but to find ways to talk with Trump.
Meanwhile, the "Russiagate" scandal — the claim that Trump's victory in the 2016 presidential election was based on Russian interference — might have a new boost in case of any positive outcome of the Trump-Putin summit. But such predictions are nothing but speculation.
Russia and the US have to pay particular attention to their relationship in the sphere of security, disarmament and missile programs. The deterioration of ties between the two major nuclear states is threatening the world's stability and security. Several treaties between the US and Russia are keeping the world relatively safe, but the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty and the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty have to be discussed and updated. The US withdrawal from the important Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty in 2002 has already led to the start of an arms race.
Russia has recently demonstrated its newest missile systems, having stressed that they are a response to the US withdrawal from the ABM. An intensification of the arms race is not in the interest of either country, but both are ready to go ahead. Trump's proposal last month of launching a space force is another step toward escalation. But the US not only has its fist against Russia's face; this is a message to China as well. The issue is that this triggers reciprocal programs in Russia and China, meaning the race is already becoming trilateral. It is high time to renegotiate the ABM treaty before it is too late.
Though the main focus will likely be on geopolitical issues, the topic of Syria sparks concerns in Damascus and Tehran, as they fear Russia might trade Syria for other major benefits. However, these concerns are invalid as Russia has not changed its position on the Syria conflict and it will not change it now, as it is a matter of honor. Though Russia might agree to some compromises regarding the presence of Iranian troops in the areas of concern to the US and Israel, Moscow will proceed with further mediation between Washington and Tehran.
The scheduling of the Russia-US summit is crucial as Trump will meet Putin after the NATO summit. Trump has slammed NATO for leeching off the US and its members for not paying their fair share. The NATO summit is therefore expected to be like that of the G-7, creating a rather odd framework for the Putin-Trump meeting and giving a green light to speculation and conspiracy theories.
Whatever the outcome of the summit, it is already a great victory for peace that it will even take place. If the light breeze of change is harnessed properly, both countries and the world as a whole will reap the benefits of this meeting.

List the tribes you belong to: cultural, personal, literary, etc .
When I was younger, I read an article in Mothering Magazine about cultivating my own tribe. I took this article to heart and set about forming one with other young mothers sharing my values. The idea was that we would clean our houses together, cook meals, and tackle the mundane while our children played happily. I learned how to bake wholemeal bread, with fresh yeast, from a mom I met at Le Leche League. We exchanged recipes for making baby food- no way would we use jars! Everything was new, and we were determined to do it right.
It seemed important to me, back then, to be validated. I needed to seek the company of like minded people who understood my decisions to have water births at home, to breastfeed my babies beyond their first year, to use cloth diapers. I grew long dreadlocks, wore flowing skirts I bought at French and English markets during my European travels. I went through a phase of piercing ears, belly, nose. I volunteered on organic farms in Ireland, which is how I first landed in my husband's hometown.
My travels brought me into contact with other seekers, artists, and people wanting to live a life less ordinary. Today many of them are still part of my tribe.
I was only 22 years old during my first pregnancy, very much a baby myself. Entering the tribe of motherhood was profound. Some of my strongest bonds are within this community. I have come to love my friends' children, and experience such joy watching them grow beside my own.
The demands of mothering have eased now that my children are older. Sleepless nights are a distant memory of the past. Now I have energy to pursue other interests. I've recovered my love of dance, my love of writing.
I continued to read voraciously through every move across the Atlantic, each birth, and even while my marriage broke down. I have always belonged to the tribe of books.
Lately, I feel the pull of this literary tribe more strongly than ever. The writers I've met through workshops, blogs and other social media have inspired me; in their company I feel understood. Last summer a friend and fellow writer shared an insight. She was attending a workshop on writing novels, and the facilitator pointed out that most writers grew up feeling like they didn't belong. Really?
It makes sense. Writers have an uncanny ability to step outside a situation- even when they are inside of it. The skill of observation is ever present. Writers often intuit what others are thinking and feeling, possessing the ability to "read" people like books. Being in a room full of writers is terribly disconcerting for me! I have discovered myself being observed, while I observe others... There's no way to hide in a situation like that!
I love this tribe though: the tribe of dreamers, visionaries, and those brave enough to walk off beat. I imagine the great Dr. Martin Luther King in this group, with his radical ideas about a world where we could all be equal, no matter what our connections, beliefs, or physical appearance might be.
I imagine Jane Austen in this group too; a woman whose satire and wit still make people laugh two hundred years later. Her social commentary and literary achievements are nothing to scoff at. I often wonder how I would have fit into her society, had I been a woman living during that period.
The tribe of free thinkers has never found life easy. But I couldn't live life any other way.

text: I have just read in a news article that Persian is one of the most commonly used one on the internet. I kind of doubt that. It might be possible that there is a quite large persian speaking population in the world, but i don't think Persian makes it to the top 5 on the internet... Edit: Damn, I should have looked it up first, if Arabic and Persian are the same it is only #7 and the number of users are pretty close to Portugese... http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats7.htm

Benefits of Meditation that will shock, Startle, and Surprise You
Meditation is a magical and mysterious way to find calm in the midst of chaos. You don't have to light candles or chant "om" (all you need is a comfortable seat). Discover how meditation can improve your mood and mental strength in ten minutes or less.
1. Smile
Meditation makes you happy.Appreciate stillness. You will learn to feel at peace no matter where you are and who you are accompanied by (OMG did I end a sentence with a preposition? – they will crucify me in the reviews!). Meditation teaches you the skill of detachment: letting go of your expectations so you can appreciate the process of achieving your goals (no matter how hard or frustrating it might seem to be sometimes)
2. Calm Down
Easy Ways To Overcome Laziness
Meditation prevents stress. The thoughts and feelings that trouble you will lose their power. Imagine something stressful, like being late for work. You might worry about how your boss will fire you during the drive. That isn't real. It's a story you made up inside your head! With practice, you'll be able to tell when you are kidding yourself (you'll also learn how to deal with whatever disastrous thing the Universe decides to throw at you during the worst time possible because isn't that how it always happens?).
3. Pay Attention
Meditation skyrockets your productivity. Being busy doesn't guarantee you are accomplishing anything that matters. You could check your inbox obsessively, but that would make a big dent in your efficiency. Research says it takes almost thirty minutes to refocus on the original task after every interruption. Makes you wonder why so many businesses insist on open office floor plans, doesn't it?
4. Hurt Less
Meditation heals nagging aches and pains. Perception is reality: the more you think about how much you hurt, the more you will hurt. Please note sickness and injury should always be treated by a medical professional as soon as possible. Meditation is a great supplemental treatment that you can do at home on top of the doctor's orders (hint: it is especially effective for people who suffer with chronic pain that doesn't have a distinct cause).
5. Find Purpose
How to Set Smart Goals in Life
Meditation gives you a reason to wake up in the morning. Purpose is a fuzzy concept, but most people describe it as a life mission or ambition. It can be hard to make such an important decision when you have a million other things to do. Meditation gives you an opportunity to take a step back and view things from a different perspective. For bonus points, keep a diary or journal. Share observations about what you learned today or maybe even write short stories based on interactions with bosses, co-workers and customers that tickled you.
6. Practice Compassion
Meditation turns you into a more kind and caring person. It's easy to get so consumed in your own life that you forget about the needs of others. Don't feel guilty. This is part of the human experience. We all have struggles. Only the specifics differ. To love others, you must first love yourself. People judge their feelings as "good" or "bad." I used to do that too. Whew! How exhausting. Never again. Meditation taught me how to feel my thoughts without judging them one way or another. They come and go like clouds breezing by in the sky. No big whoop. ?
7. Improve Self-control
Meditation minimizes strange impulses and compulsions. Don't fidget. Resist the urge to scratch an itch. Ride every breath with the concentration of a surfer. Don't get irritated when your mind wanders: shift your attention back to the breath.
8. Make Better Decisions
Meditation prevents regret and the suffering it brings to your life. The ego is strong. It's hard to admit when you're wrong. If you stay humble and meditate every day, you'll learn to let go of limiting cognitive biases.
9. Recover from Addiction
Addictions Apart From Smoking And Alcohol
Meditation is a great addition to an addiction recovery plan for some. Cravings suck. It is tough to think about anything else. No wonder so many addicts relapse. It's never easy to say, "No," but meditation helps. Temptation is easier to manage when you're ready for it.
10. Develop Mental Strength
Meditation transforms you into a highly confident and resourceful person. It's nice to "think positive" and "hope for the best," but let's not kid ourselves. If you want to be successful, you need to be the most mentally strong person in the room. Mental strength is an ability to persevere through a struggle or difficult and unusual situation that makes you feel tense and uncomfortable. Meditation will probably feel that way at first. Your thoughts will go in every direction. You won't be able to sit still. Does that sound horrible? Yes. Here's the good news. Stick with it and you will learn to love meditation as you practice (I promise).

Two of my stories have been recently published in an online magazine Mad Hatters' Review, in their special section "Back From the USSR." My stories are two humor pieces "How to Tell if a Student in Your Beginning Poetry Class is a Russian Spy" and "Sweet Dreams." I am very excited that in this publication my name is featured next to others whom I respect and admire, in particular a poet Vladimir Gandelsman and a quirky prose writer Linor Goralik.
Another publication I'm very proud of is my essay about Clark Coolidge's book of poetry, "This Time We Are Both," written in 1991 and published last year by Ugly Duckling Presse. This review appears on HTMLGiant, a great blog about all things lit (esp. avant-garde lit).
My friend Genine Lentine has published an essay on her project "Listening Booth" -- I have participated in this project about a year and a half ago, and Genine interviewed me about it. Part of this interview accompanies the essay. The other part Genine has graciously emailed me so that I can remember how cool this project was and continue to wonder why it has resonated so much with me and how I can use the ideas I had generated thinking about it in my work. Genine's own thoughts about the projects are expressed with power and clarity in her essay. Genine also blogs here.

Twenty-five years ago this week, Hurricane Bob swept through New England, leaving six dead in Connecticut and causing $680 million in damage in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island were hit hardest by the Category 2 storm, said the National Weather Service office in Taunton. At times, sustained winds of 100 miles per hour were recorded, as well as gusts up to 125 miles per hour. Houses, boats, and beaches saw severe and, at times, irreparable damage in a marginal area of Buzzards Bay and parts of the Cape.
Two men watch the boats in the harbor as some come off their mooring and crash into the pier at Mattapoisett during Hurricane Bob.

This movie scored an impressive 91% on the Tomatometer, and is ranked #48 on IMDB's Top 250 List. So you'd think I'd like it a little better.
It's the story of the last few days of Hitler and Nazi Germany; it follows the stories of a small number of people, most in Hitler's inner circle. And if you've read even a smattering of the era's history, you probably know it's going to be a nightmarish tale of unremitting darkness, full of decadence, delusion, madness, murder, suicide, and gore. The only bright spot is in our knowing that it's the end to one long, evil, story.
The filmmakers obviously took pains to get things right; most of the actors bear uncanny physical resemblances to the actual people they're playing. And much of the dialog is based on memoirs (although, apparently, some of Hitler's lines were actually said in earlier times.) Filmviewers are getting pretty much the real deal here. (Although Wikipedia differs on the details of the deaths of the Goebbels family.)
But it's pretty much just that; if you're looking for inspiration or insight through all the nightmare, you'll be disappointed.
By coincidence, I happened upon this quote at Phi Beta Cons (in response to a more modern nightmare):
Evil is nothingness, evil is a mystery, evil is incomprehensible. One can note the word "diabolical" also: it means "tear apart." Evil fragments meaning and community. God and the good are "symbolic," in the sense that they bind communities together with meaning.The movie's heavy on the diabolism, and symbolism is absent.

Theme park expo offers preview of what's new for 2018
By TERRANCE HARRIS
Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla.
This year's theme park expo in Orlando, Fla., features the latest products, technology and trends in rides and the next big food items, all of which could be coming to an amusement park near you as early as the summer of 2018.
A record 37,000 attendees got a chance to look at what 1,000 vendors representing more than 100 countries have to offer for the upcoming year. The expo was sponsored by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA).
Here are some of the exciting things to look forward to in 2018 and beyond:
If you are into dizzying thrills, then the Time Traveler ride, which is debuting next summer at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Mo., is for you.
Time Traveler drops you at a 90-degree vertical angle right out of the gate and it only becomes more intense from there with three inversions at speeds up to around 50 mph, all while spinning. It's being billed as the fastest, steepest and tallest spinning roller coaster.
A ride manufacturer called Skyline Attractions has been shopping its compact double-car roller coaster, Skywarp, for the past two years, and the company finally has a buyer.
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, Calif., will debut Skywarp in the summer of 2018. The 30-foot tall, 290-feet long coaster features two cars speeding around each other on double loops.
The first-generation of rafting rides spun riders around while taking them over rapid waters. Well Infinity Falls, set to debut at SeaWorld in Orlando next summer, has that and then some.
The twisting raft ride by Intamin begins with an elevator lift that launches eight passengers in a river and eventually sends them to a 40-feet drop. And from there a wild and rough adventure begins.
Perhaps the most innovative ride on display at the expo this week is still in the concept phase, but once it hits the market it will be a must ride. It's called Aquaticar, which will be the first underwater driving experience.
Passengers will be able to steer their way through a marine life experience while being submerged underwater with an oxygen-filled canopy covering their heads. The two-passenger car, designed by Sub Sea Systems, moves at a rate of 130 feet per minute, or about the speed of a casual walk.
There are plenty of new food items on the horizon, but the one that may draw the most interest is an all-time favorite with a twist.
A New Jersey-based company is shopping a pizza in a cone concept that will definitely be a winner with kids. Pizza sauce, cheese and choice of toppings are stuffed into a cone-shaped crust and then baked.

Most of these things cost no money – they just require a little time and love.
I hope you will make my Christmas wish list come true.
May I please have:
12 sticks to chew on

I got my new iPod Touch for christmas 2007 and I love it, I take it with me everywhere, it never leaves my sight. Whether it be in the kitchen, on the plane or even at work.
You see I had an iPod 4G 20GB but after a week it was scratched to hell, I tried rubbing it with silver polish but it never quite looked the same so now I have my new iPod Touch I thought it was high time I get a protective case for it. No more scratches for me. But the question came, which iPod Touch case should I get?
One made of gold with encrusted diamonds?
One made of leather?
A silicon skin one perhaps?
Or maybe even one made of hemp?
It was a tough decision and one that would have been a whole lot easier if I had a guide so I decided to write one.

Sounds of the golden accordion
Sights of the golden river
Jukka Huhtamella
He started to play accordion at the age of eight, when he got his first instrument. In the beginning, he learned to play accordion from his father Reino Huhtamella, who gave accordion lessons in the community college of Inari. During summer, they used to spend one week at the Särkät Soi Festival in Kalajoki, dedicated to accordion music and highly renowned for its top-class accordion lessons given by both Finnish and international instructors.
In the autumn of 1986, Jukka started to study music in Rovaniemi under the guidance of Seppo Leino, the accordion maestro himself. This marked the beginning of a busy period in Jukka's life, coming in second in the North Calotte entertainment accordion competition in 1987 and winning the Golden Accordion competition in 1988, the Finnish Championship of entertainment accordion music.
To unwind after duties related to work and music, Jukka does a lot of outdoor activities, including snowmobiling, riverboating, hunting and fishing. The municipality of Inari provides a perfect setting for recharging batteries.
Ever since those early days, Jukka has performed on numerous occasions, sharing the stage with frontline Finnish artists such as Kai Hyttinen, Pave Maijanen, Jamppa Tuominen, Berit, Merja Larivaara, Taito Vainio, Eero Sinikannel and Reijo Salminen. Besides the Nordic countries, Huhtamella has many performances behind him also in Japan and the United States.
In 2008-2014 he acted as the chairman of the Ivalo Folk Musicians Association. During this time, the association wrote their history, produced a concert DVD, and celebrated the anniversary of their 40-year journey together.
In 2010 Huhtamella released his first full-length solo album entitled "Accordion Solos".
Boating season 2018 has begun

City-ordered audit: shows that most BPS schools mismanaged their student activity funding [1]
September 6, 2018
Nearly all Boston public schools used student activity funds for unrelated costs and lost account records related to spending, the mayor's office said in a statement last Friday.
After the Internal Revenue Service raised concerns last year following a review of student activity accounts at 16 randomly chosen schools in Boston, the city ordered an audit of the accounts, conducted by Ernst & Young. The firm found that the funds, which are designated for student activities such as student clubs, field trips, proms and other special events, were mismanaged or not properly recorded over the past five years at close to 118 schools in the district. Charter schools in the district were not reviewed.
The school system says it plans to make a number of procedural changes, including ordering the schools to use the city's internal financial system for the accounts, pending approval from the Boston School Committee at a Sept. 12 meeting.
"Trust, transparency, and being fiscally responsible for the residents of Boston is what drives our priorities, and this in-depth review has allowed for the creation of substantial and comprehensive new policies and procedures," Mayor Marty Walsh said in the statement. He noted that the audit is the first-ever review of the accounts, which were created in the early 1990s.

Reports indicate latest effort to legalize fantasy sports in Texas a dead end
May 31, 2017 9:35 AM
by Robert Mann
Reports from Texas indicate the latest effort to legalize for-profit fantasy sports leagues statewide appears to have reached a dead end.
State Rep. Richard Peña Raymond had proposed legislation designating fantasy sports as legal, skill-based games, in direct contradiction to an opinion handed down by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton last year judging fantasy sports to be illegal gambling.
With his own fantasy sports bills unable to gain traction, Raymond succeeded in getting a conference committee dealing with state licensing issues, to include language from his fantasy sports legislation.
However, the fantasy sports legalization language ultimately failed to be part of the final licensing bill.

Title: Chasing Power
Author: Sarah Beth Durst
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Publication Date: October 14, 2014
Summary: Sixteen-year-old Kayla was born with the ability to move things with her mind-things like credit cards and buttons on cash registers-and she has become a master shoplifter. She steals to build up enough money for her and her mom to be able to flee if her dad finds them again . . . which would mean grave danger for them both.
When she's caught stealing by a boy named Daniel-a boy with the ability to teleport-he needs her help and is willing to blackmail her to get it. Together, they embark on a quest to find and steal an ancient incantation, written on three indestructible stones and hidden millennia ago, all to rescue Daniel's kidnapped mother. But Kayla has no idea that this rescue mission will lead back to her own family-and to betrayals that she may not be able to forgive . . . or survive.
This book had a few things with really cool potential, but ultimately fell flat. We have a girl who can move things with her mind and a boy who can teleport anywhere as long as he has seen it in a picture; how could that possibly be boring? Well, let me tell you.
To start off with, Kayla was one of the the most uninteresting heroines of all time. She just didn't really have anything about her that made her stand out and her personality was flat at best. She jumped between being very calm and collected, to being dramatic and kind of stupid. The thing I really did like though was that her powers were very interesting. She can move things with her mind, but only small things, so it requires her to get creative sometimes and I really liked that. For example, at one point, someone is underwater so she sends bubbles of air down so they can breathe. Or she changes the course of bullets instead of ripping the gun out of someones hands. Because she had to be creative, it made it much more interesting when she had to use her powers to steal things or help in fights.
As for the love interest Daniel, he just made me really mad. I'm getting really frustrated with every boy in YA books being so ridiculously attractive, then having it brought up like every ten pages. It makes me angry that apparently for a boy to be brave or snarky or have superpowers, he's also required to look like a super model. Or maybe there are so many hot guys in YA books so all the girls reading drown in jealousy because obviously the heroine must be so much prettier and cooler than us to score such a hottie. In which case, I'm even angrier.
Ranting aside, Daniel seemed like an interesting character and his power is awesome, but we never really get any depth. Mostly Kayla just jumps between hating him, admiring how hot he is, then hating him so more. He was kind of annoying at first because he was impulsive and idiotic and didn't listen to anyone, but it was also kind of sweet to see how determined he was. Unfortunately, just like Kayla though, he suffered from having little to no personality.
Their relationship isn't even really worth talking about but I'm going to waste my time explaining why it was awful anyways. This whole book is so fast paced and all over the place that I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure the whole thing happened in just a few days. So if Kayla and Daniel are literally confessing their undying love to each other within this period of time, I'm going to have a little problem. Not to mention that through the whole book, Kayla is hating him and thinking about what an idiot he is. Then they are randomly kissing a bunch and in love? Are you kidding me?
As far as the plot goes, this should have been a really interesting book. Kayla and Daniel travel around to try and find some ancient stones, jumping from place to place, racing against bad guys and whatnot. But basically, they did nothing to work together, constantly got screwed over, and mostly bored me to death.The story behind the stones was kind of interesting, but that was only briefly touched upon. Then the clues they were left to hunting down the stones were solved in like five seconds, so there wasn't even much of a mystery, it was more like just waiting for them to actually get to the place.
And oh my god you guys, the best part of this whole book was how much of it that Daniel spent unconscious. Being able to teleport is kind of an unfair ability in a fight and if Kayla and Daniel could just jump away every time the bad guys showed up, how would the bad guys ever be able to say some cryptic stuff and try to steal the stones? So the author's solution? Knock Daniel out every five seconds. Seriously. He either teleports too much, overexerting himself and falling unconscious like an idiot so they are stranded in some dangerous place, or the bad guys knock him out in some way. It would have almost been funny if it wasn't so annoying.
All of the secondary characters were just as boring as Kayla and Daniel and you don't end up caring about any of them. Kayla's best friend, her mother, who she calls Moonbeam (yeah, I have no idea), Daniel's mother, they were all just one dimensional. They all felt awkward and fake, and anything "interesting" about them felt so forced. Even the villains were predictable and their reasons behind being evil weren't interesting at all.
Ultimately, with the combination of an uninteresting cast of characters and a plot that almost had me snoring, I was amazed that I made it to the end. A few of the concepts were intriguing and the author had a unique take on Kayla's telekinesis powers, but even that wasn't enough to keep me focused.

Question: Cardinal Robert Sarah, the Vatican's prefect for the Congregation of Divine Worship, at a conference in England has asked priests to begin celebrating Mass ad orientem, that is, facing east rather than towards the congregation, beginning in Advent. This request/directive builds on Pope Benedict XVI's emphasis on "turning together toward the Lord"—that is, the priest and congregation facing east for prayer. Did liturgical renewal go in the wrong direction on this? Should we push all our free-standing altars up against the wall?
Answer: There's no doubt that early Christians (I don't know how early) faced toward the east for prayer, just as Jews faced toward Jerusalem and Muslims later on faced toward Mecca. The reason for the eastward "orientation" (ad orientem = "toward east") was that Christ was hailed as the "new orient"—the rising sun of righteousness. This reinforced the eschatological consciousness of the early Christians.
This had nothing to do with where the table or altar was placed. Early Christian Eucharists weren't celebrated in church buildings but in house churches and cemeteries. The standard arrangement for a Greco-Roman banquet was the triclinum—three couches for reclining guests with a central table. The space "behind" the table was open so that servants could place food on it. Additional couches could be added as needed. If Christians stood for prayer they might have faced east, but not necessarily toward the table. If the Eucharist was celebrated in the cemetery at night on the grave of a martyr, saint, or faithful departed Christian, the mensa (table top) of the tomb served as the table for the Eucharist and the participants gathered around it.
When Christians moved into basilicas (public halls) in the 4th century, the bishop and presbyters took seats in the apse where magistrates usually sat when they held court. The altar-table was between the apse and the nave where the people assembled. In terms of maintaining the eastward direction for prayer, it was found convenient to have the apse in the east end of the hall. The Syrian Apostolic Constitutions (ca. 380) gave this as a rule when building churches. Then for the Eucharist the celebrant would stand on the west side of the altar with his back toward most of the people. Priest and people together faced the east for prayer.
But not every church had an east-end apse. The first Roman basilicas turned over to the Church for worship had the entrance on the east. Most famously, St. Peter's Basilica on the Vatican hill had a west-end apse with the free standing altar over the tomb of St. Peter. So the pope would have presided facing the congregation across the altar and the congregation would have had to turn their backs to the altar and the bishop. It's not likely that they did since we find no directions about that. Moreover, Pope Leo the Great had issues with people standing on raised platforms facing east in Rome doing sun salutes because of the lingering cult of the sun (Sol invictus) in this conservative city where old pagan practices lingered on. In a Christmas sermon, when the Christian celebration of the nativity of Christ competed with the pagan Roman celebration of the nativity of the Invincible Sun, he castigated ignorant Christians who continued this pagan piety even on the steps of St. Peter's Basilica: "When they have mounted the steps which lead to the raised platform, they turn around and bow themselves toward the rising sun and with bent neck do homage to its brilliant orb" (see Thomas Talley, Origins of the Liturgical Year, 101). This pope was not in favor of ad orientem.
In any event, the issue is orientation, not where the altar is placed. An eastward altar was a matter of logistical convenience so that everyone would be facing in the same direction. This means, if this principle is to be scrupulously followed, that in church buildings in which the altar is not on the geographical east end of the worship space no one should face the altar for prayer. If orientation is to be scrupulously observed, Christians should face east for prayer no matter where the altar is. A free standing square altar table would enable the presiding minister to stand on whatever side of the altar that would enable him or her to face east for the Great Thanksgiving while also being able to handle the Eucharistic vessels. (Note that within the apses of Eastern rite churches the square altar table is free standing so that the bishop or priest is able to move all around it, for example, when incensing.)
My guess is that if Cardinal Sarah's request (it is not a directive) is implemented, many parishes will not practice a literal but a symbolic ad orientem because their altars are not at the geographical east end of the worship space. The real issue seems to be getting the priest's back to the people, as it was before Vatican II liturgical reforms, suggesting a return to a hierarchical arrangement, and this will become the divisive issue. If the altar is in the center of the worship space with people assembled on all sides, the request can be implemented with little change. And the celebrant is still presiding in the midst of the people.
As concerns Protestants, 16th century reformers favored a free standing altar. Luther wrote in his German Mass (1526), "In the true mass…of real Christians, the altar should not remain where it is, and the priest should always face the people as Christ doubtlessly did in the Last Supper. But let that await its own time" (Luther's Works, American Edition, Vol. 53, 69). Its "own time" was a long time coming in most places, although in south Germany altars were placed in the midst of the chancel (but often with a triptych on its back side). The main altar of the Ulm Minster in south Germany is free standing, but the reredos and triptych make presiding toward the people impossible.
Most Lutheran churches in Europe still have east wall altars. If altars are free standing, it is accomplished by moving the altar out from the wall to enable ministers to stand behind it, not to by placing a communion table in front of an otherwise impressive altar. The main altar in the Uppsala Cathedral is free standing and ministers may preside across the mensa toward the nave.
In the Reformed tradition the Lord's table was placed at the head of the nave and the ministers stood and sat behind it. In the Anglican Reformation, the Ordinance of 1550 which abolished the high altars on which the sacrifice of the mass had been offered ordered a wooden table placed lengthwise in the chancel between the choir stalls and the priest presided on the north end of the table facing the communicants across the table in the south side stalls. Only with great controversy did Anglicans get back to an eastward altar during the Anglo-Catholic revival of the 19th century. Of course, the late 19th century neo-gothic revival in church architecture encouraged east wall altars along with divided chancels.
What to do (if anything)? Orientation is an interesting, if not always a practical, idea. Maybe during the eschatological Advent season try having everyone face east for the prayers, wherever east actually is (the direction of the rising sun). Introduce the idea by singing "People, look east. The time is near of the crowning of the year," with its refrains, "Love, the Guest/the Rose/the Star/the Lord is on the way." Use this orientation for the prayer of the day, the intercessions, the Lord's Prayer, and the prayer after communion. But for the Great Thanksgiving everyone should face toward the altar where Christ actually comes to us and is present in the sacrament of bread and wine. Since the Eucharistic prayer, which includes the Words of Institution, is proclamation as well as prayer, some Lutheran pastors have emphasized this by turning toward the people during the Words of Institution even if presiding at an eastward altar and holding the bread as the words of Christ are recited over the bread and then holding the cup as the words of Christ are recited over the cup. The other option, of course, if the pastor doesn't turn around to face the people is a grand elevation of each element (obviously not with a stack of pre-filled communion glasses).
"Ad orientem" for all prayer may not be what Cardinal Sarah or the Tridentistas have in mind. They have their agenda that goes by the motto "reform of the reform", but it's not one that the rest of us, especially heirs of the Reformation who have experienced the blessings of liturgical renewal, need to follow. Apparently, Roman Catholic priests are not obligated to follow Cardinal Sarah's request either because celebrating the Mass facing the people is encouraged in the General Instruction on the Roman Mass (GIRM) and the prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship has no authority to change GIRM on his own. In my opinion, I do not think liturgical renewal went in a wrong direction on this. But liturgical renewal's emphasis on the character of the liturgy as "the people's work", enacted in the practice of people and priest gathering around the table of the Lord, is not shared by everyone in the Catholic Church—or in Protestant Churches.
Pastor Frank Senn
St. Mary of the Angels Catholic Church in Singapore. Spaces in the center of the worship hall provide for a baptismal font and pool, a free-standing altar, and a place for the word, with the congregation gathered on three sides. A number of post-Vatican II Catholic church buildings have no space for an altar against the east wall, as in the image above this article.

Classical Education
is based on three stages of learning (Grammar, Logic and Rhetoric) that follow a child's natural ability to learn as he or she grows and develops.
The School of Grammar (grades K4-6) - Because young children have a natural ability to memorize large pieces of information, memorization is a key component of the learning process during the Grammar Stage.
The School of Logic (grades 7-8) - Children at this age tend to ask "why?" and argue. During the Logic Stage, the student is taught to build upon the memorized facts and develop logical arguments.
The School of Rhetoric (grades 9-12) - After facts are memorized and logical arguments are developed, the final stage of learning is the Rhetoric Stage. During this stage, the student is taught to articulate a worldview with wisdom and excellence.

From this point I am going to focus on experimental part. Recently I have found one website that seems especially inspirational to me. The image below is the screenshot of it. Basically, what I like is the sense of mystery. All images are positioned in the dark place but when a user is navigating the mouse on one of them, it is lightening up. It feels like with this lighting the secret of the image is expected to be revealed. In terms of my website, I sense this play with lighting can be relevant because I want users to feel that the mystery behind the selected type will be explained within the project. Such aesthetics underlines that there is some magic behind each typeface. Moreover, it will create some intrigue, which results in more engagement.
Then, I have found the images, created by famous graphic designers, with the fonts I need to cover. In fact, I adjusted the darkness to add a kind of mysterious effect, the importance of which I discussed in the first paragraph. Then, I located these images on the one page to see how they would work visually all together (due to their colour palette as well as similar design aesthetics I feel they work nicely). In line with this, I started experimenting with animation. Actually, I am not sure how to make the design be responsive, therefore I have created a gif to observe if it is a proper replacement. Unfortunately, it hasn't work here mainly because if the images become lighter without users' navigation the sense of connection between the website and a person is lost. In its turn, my aim is to produce a feeling that a website is going to tell a secret to you. However without responsive design that seems problematic. Therefore, the next step I am going to do is to find more research on how to make it happen.
Initially I was thinking to add the name of the font on the image but then I realised that it could spoilt the overall design. Moreover, it is not really necessary here because the name, although given in small size, is quite visible. Besides, behind the image I added the text ("discover"). The trick is that this text does not give the direct information about the things that are going to be discovered so it will create a feeling that some secret is going to be revealed.

|Frigate Bird Colony on Barbuda
March 20th. Meet Goldilocks. He was our local guide to the Frigate bird colony on Barbuda.
|Goldilocks himself
|Channel markers off Tom's shoulder and bow of the boat
|Yes, we were that close to land going FAST
|Goldilocks tossing dead branches to provoke an aerial fight
|Bird taking the branch back to it's mate.....if it makes it....the other birds have other ideas
|So many birds
|chicks, nests and adults mixed everywhere
|Chick and then two non-attached males - puffed out and looking for love
The water near the frigate colony was full of thousands of jelly fish of all sizes. Goldilocks said they were harmless and showed us by scooping one up. Tom scooped several up. They were not pretty like some jellyfish but really rather ugly and gross.
|Jelly fish - thousands
|small, weird, ugly jelly fish
It was all very interesting. If you go, we would recommend Goldilocks. You can reach him by calling on VHF radio to the Coco Point Hotel and telling them you want to book Goldilocks. Or he has a cell - 722-54-74. His VHF broke.

It's GB United: We WILL have a football team at 2012 Olympics - and Fergie's lined up as boss
Great Britain will field a football team in the London 2012 Olympics - no matter how complex the politics or stubborn the opposition of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Lord Moynihan, chairman of the British Olympic Association, gave that categoric pledge yesterday, along with his powerful endorsement of Games chief Lord Coe's proposal that Sir Alex Ferguson should manage the team.
Scroll down for more
Wales, Scotland and England: Ryan Giggs, Darren Fletcher and Wayne Rooney train during Manchester United's tour of South Africa
The vital importance of football to the London Olympics was spelled out by Colin Moynihan when he said: 'The impact of a British team on the public and their support of the Games will be enormous.
'We would also expect that team to be a strong medal contender and thereby generate tremendous excitement throughout the country. We must have a team in these Games and we will have a team.'
The Scots have led the Welsh and Irish in refusing to co-operate, fearful that the four UK bodies will be stripped of their individual voting power by FIFA and consequently reduced to entering one combined GB team in World Cups.
Now the clear implication from Moynihan is that, if the other home Football Associations prevent their players taking part, 11 Englishmen will represent Britain at theLondon Games in 2012. Given the defiance in Glasgow - as well as Cardiff and Belfast - there is a strong likelihood that a lone Scot would pick that team of Anglos.
Ferguson was asked informally by Seb Coe if he would consider the post as manager and Moynihan has followed that up with an approach of his own. Moynihan said: 'We would want the most highly-qualified man for that job so obviously I would support Fergie as well as considering, of course, any English manager the FA might put forward who had comparable credentials.'
Given that England keep looking abroad for their manager - first Sven Goran Eriksson, now Fabio Capello - that is not likely to be the longest of queues.
Scroll down for more
So, with Sir Alex indicating he will be receptive when he finally steps down at Manchester United - four years from now he will be 70 - the timing appears perfect.
That raises the mischievous prospect of Ferguson, so often accused of withholding his stars from England squads, demanding Wayne Rooney's release from Old Trafford to play for Britain as one of his three permitted players aged over 23 in London 2012.
Nor would it be easy for his countrymen-in-office to deny Sir Alex access to a Scottish prodigy, should one emerge in the next two or three years.
Any GB team - now or four years hence - would be built on a preponderance of English footballers but the progress made by at least one Scottish girl makes Moynihan especially miffed that, like the men, no British women's football team will be competing in Beijing next month.
He is determined to enter teams of both sexes in London and says: 'The England ladies are strong at the moment and, given the odd Scot coming through, I am sure they would have been strong medal contenders in Beijing. We will have both teams come 2012.'
It is the men's team who have the history and the power to capture the imagination of the nation four years hence.
Britain won the football gold in Paris 1900, London 1908 and Stockholm 1912. They last entered the Olympics in 1972, still adhering to the-then principle of an amateur team even though almost every other nation responded to the rule change admitting young professionals. As a consequence, they were knocked out by Bulgaria in the qualifying rounds and have not taken part since.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter maintains that the fear of the Scots, Welsh and Irish losing their identities if they unite under the British Olympic flag are groundless, at least while he remains in office. Now he is urging the BOA to pick an all- English team for 2012, if that is the only solution.
Moynihan will go down that route if he must, albeit reluctantly.
Meanwhile, he is turning on the other home FAs all the powers of persuasion he brought to bear in the High Court to defeat the attempt by drugs cheat sprinter Dwain Chambers to overturn his lifetime Olympic ban. Reinforced by that verdict, Moynihan is urging other countries and the IOC to adopt the BOA's controversial by-law.
Speaking at a Sports Journalists Association lunch in the shadow of the Law Courts, he also continued his campaign for the wider use of blood testing rather than urine sampling to catch substance abusers.
He said: 'We still have a long way to go, but I want to see competition between athletes, not between chemical laboratories.'
He fears Beijing may be blighted by drugs scandals. Barclays Premier League players will shortly be required to notify the authorities of their daily whereabouts in case they are chosen for random drugs testing - just like Olympic athletes.

With the new, more fraud-resistant Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) chip in many credit cards, scammers are working a new angle to steal from consumers.
As consumers are anticipating the delivery of new debit and credit cards with the EMV chip, they are being targeted by scammers via emails that look like they are coming from their bank asking for updated personal financial information.
Bonnie Smyre, an Internet security expert explains, "These types of phishing emails have been around for a long time. You might remember the, 'Hey I'm your long lost relative from a distant country and I left all of my money to you. I just need your banking account info'. Most people read those but said this looks fishy."
Scammers saw an opportunity to freshen up this scam by contacting consumers about their new EMV chip credit card.
So now scammers are sending much more legitimate emails. It's hard to tell that they're fake. They often fake an email address so it looks like it's from your bank. They use graphics from your bank. It looks very legit then they say, "You need to update your information. Your card is on the way, but before it can take effect – we need your personal and banking information to be updated," added Ms. Smyre.
Don't bite. Don't reply to the email. Don't click any links. It's a new twist on an old scam meant to draw consumers in. If you get something like that and have questions about whether your bank or credit union is really trying to contact you, call the number on the back of your credit card or on your bank statement. If you have any questions about your First Financial accounts – please call 866.750.0100 or email email@example.com.
Be sure to enroll in our newest, upgraded Identity Theft Protection Program from Sherpa – don't wait until it's too late! The best part? You can enroll right online, 24/7.

Troubled UK bank sees rush to take out savings1 min read . Updated: 18 Sep 2007, 01:33 AM IST
Troubled UK bank sees rush to take out savings
Troubled UK bank sees rush to take out savings
London: Northern Rock Plc.'s credit-default swaps rose as customers queued to withdraw savings from the UK mortgage lender, which was bailed out by the Bank of England last week.
Contracts on the Newcastle-based company increased 15 basis points to 170 basis points, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co. The cost of the credit-default swaps, which traded as high as 210 basis points on Friday, increases as creditworthiness deteriorates.
Lines formed outside Northern Rock branches before dawn as customers ignored assurances their deposits were secure. Savers removed at least £2 billion (Rs16,200 crore), or about 8% of Northern Rock's total, since 14 September, the British Broadcasting Corp. reported without saying where it got the information from.
"The withdrawal of £2 billion of deposits doesn't help their situation," said Franz Rudolf, a credit analyst at UniCredit SpA in Munich. "A lot of uncertainty remains."
The lender required the biggest rescue by the central bank in 30 years after investors curtailed loans to all but the safest borrowers on concern losses from subprime mortgage defaults in the US are spreading.
Northern Rock, the UK's third-largest mortgage provider, relies on short-term financing from the money markets for 73% of its funds, according to Dresdner Kleinwort, an investment bank.

You can use vinegar to restore your carpet's natural look. Scrub it with a solution of 1 cup white distilled vinegar for every gallon of water. Remember, when cleaning your carpets, always test your cleaning solution on a hidden area, making sure it works and doesn't damage the carpet.
You can also clean your grouts, tub and shower with white distilled vinegar. Just spray it and wait for about 15 minutes. Then, take a tooth brush and start scrubbing it. You could also spray the vinegar around the bathroom and clean it with a damp cloth, as it helps killing germs and bacteria, accumulated around the bathroom. If this sounds too difficult, you can always call us at Carpet Cleaning Universal City TX.
