[JURIST] A Sudanese man charged with aiding an International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] investigation of a Darfur [JURIST news archive] war crimes suspect appeared in court Monday. Mohamed Alsary Ibrahim is charged [Reuters report] with working to overthrow the constitutional government, waging war against the state, dealing with an enemy country, spying, and passing on confidential military documents in connection with the ICC's investigation of Sudan's state minister for humanitarian affairs Ahmed Haroun [JURIST report]. Ibrahim is the first person to be charged in Sudan for assisting an ICC investigation and could face a death sentence if convicted.
In August, ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo [official website] said Sudan is merely going through the motions with its planned probe [JURIST reports] into Darfur human rights violations. He said that Sudan does not have the political will to bring human rights offenders to justice, noting that an earlier Sudanese investigation into genocide claims was led by Haroun, who is wanted by the ICC. The ICC issued a warrant for Haroun's arrest last year, but Sudan has refused to turn him over. In July, Moreno-Ocampo applied [JURIST report] for an arrest warrant [application, PDF; ICC press release] for Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir [BBC profile, JURIST news archive] on charges of genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes for atrocities committed in the country's Darfur region. No warrant has been issued, but earlier this month, Moreno-Ocampo urged states to prepare [JURIST report] for the ICC's imminent ruling.

LOS ANGELES - A stray gray whale has left a shallow marina near Los Angeles after spending more than three weeks there.
Marine biologist Peter Wallerstein said Sunday that he and a county Baywatch crew watched the 25-foot animal yearling head northwest out of Marina Del Rey. He says it was accompanied by about 50 bottlenose dolphins.
Wallerstein says the group lost track of the whale as it swam into the ocean Friday night.
The whale appeared in the shallow manmade marina on June 2 in a detour from its migration from Baja California to Alaska.
The National Marine Fisheries Service appointed a baby sitter last week to watch the whale and protect it from curious onlookers and to see if it would require human intervention.

I bought myself this heart necklace for myself as a Mother's Day gift last year. When it arrived I was overwhelmed with joy because it was more beautiful than I expected. To my disappointment the first Jem fill out within the first three months and then several months later I second fell out. I bought the necklace in May and unfortunately by the time Thanksgiving came I was unable to wear it Due to it missing two of the birthstones. First appearances can be very deceiving .

Thank you. Our Mother loves the necklace and raves about the design.
Love it!

Hurricanes Reassign Brett Carson to Albanyby Terrell Williams / Carolina Hurricanes
RALEIGH, NC—Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager for the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has reassigned defenseman Brett Carson to Albany of the American Hockey League.

It marked the first NHL recall for the Regina, Sask., native, who ranks second among all River Rats defensemen with 11 points (1g, 10a) this season, while playing in 23 of the team's 28 games. Carson (6'4", 220 lbs.) has earned 53 points (5g, 48a) in 163 career regular-season AHL games with Albany since turning professional in 2006-07. The Hurricanes drafted Carson in the fourth round, 109th overall, in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft.

Saludos Compay[CD]
~ Ecos de Siboney
Product Notes
Compay Segundo, born November 18, 1907 (1907-11-18), deceased July 13, 2003 (aged 95), was a Cuban musician and songwriter. Born Máximo Francisco Repilado Muñoz in the town of Siboney, in the East of Cuba, he moved to the city of Santiago de Cuba at age 9. In his early years he played the guitar, the clarinet, the bongos, and the congas. He became a songwriter and performer, well-known to fans of Cuban music as the second voice and tres player for Los Compadres, a group he formed in 1948 with Lorenzo Hierrezuelo.[1] (Compadre, or compay for short, in Spanish indicates the relationship between a godparent and the parents of the godchild; thus someone's 'compadre' is the godfather of his or her offspring, of the father of his or her godchild; as a colloquialism the term designates a good friend). Los Compadres were one of the most successful Cuban bands of their time. Their music still enjoys considerable popularity in the Spanish speaking Caribbean. Greater international fame came first in 1994, when he went to Spain, then later in 1997, with the release of the Buena Vista Social Club album, a hugely successful recording which won several Grammy awards. Compay Segundo appeared in the film of the same title, made subsequently by Wim Wenders. Segundo's most famous composition is 'Chan Chan', the opening track on the Buena Vista Social Club album, whose four opening chords are instantly recognizable all over the world. 'Chan Chan' was recorded by Segundo himself various times as well as by countless other Latin artists. He used to take his pulse and joked about his vitality despite his 90-plus years. 'Who could have imagined that?' he asked when he found himself at the Vatican City, performing 'Chan Chan' before Pope John Paul II. He explained his longevity simply: mutton consommé and a drink of rum. He predicted that he would live to be 115, but died of kidney failure in Havana, twenty years short of his ambition. Compay Segundo was also the inventor of the armónico, a seven-stringed guitar-like instrument, created to eliminate a harmonic jump in the Spanish guitar and the tres. Ecos de Siboney The members of this band are my grandchildren. I have taught them to play traditional music and will carry on teaching them. They have learned well, and without sounding presumptuous I think they can walk in my footsteps. They will duly and adequately represent Compay Segundo. Francisco Repilado (Compay Segundo)

Kennebec County Sheriff Randall Liberty encouraged people with pools to keep them secure, following an accident Thursday morning in which a 2-year-old boy nearly died in his family pool.
Cody Campbell is on life support at Maine Medical Center in Portland, according to Liberty.
He was taken by a LifeFlight helicopter from MaineGeneral Medical Center in Augusta to Portland, where there were indications of a pulse but no brain activity, according to a news release from the Kennebec County Sheriff's Office.
The boy's mother, Karla Campbell, 31, found her son floating facedown in their above-ground swimming pool at their Northern Avenue residence, while she was home with her three children and two of their friends, according to the release.
The sheriff's office received a report of a drowning victim about 7:45 a.m.
Paramedics from Gardiner Rescue were attempting to resuscitate the boy when the deputies arrived, Liberty said.
The boy's father, Vernon Campbell, 34, had left for work at about 7 a.m., according to the release.
Liberty said pools should be secured with fences and locks so children won't have access.
He said it's important not only for pool owners who have children to secure their pools, but anyone with a pool, since they are inviting to children.
"Without parental supervision, it's obviously a dangerous environment," Liberty said.

They say they're not designing buildings any more.
They are designing information: flows of money, materials, people, objects, water, air and electrons.
They are designing processes.
Being a librarian is managing flows of money, objects, information, knowledge, people.
But they are managing flows designed in another era. Can they design the flows of tomorrow?
Who designs the library for the electronic age? And how it'll look like?

the library's future is held hostage by its past
Libraries are the next big industry needing to cope with disruption and (creative?) destruction.
Is it possible to transform current institutions and structures into something radically different?
More than seven years ago Aaron Swartz, who spared no risk in standing up for what we here urge you to stand up for too, wrote: "We need to take information, wherever it is stored, make our copies and share them with the world. We need to take stuff that's out of copyright and add it to the archive. We need to buy secret databases and put them on the Web. We need to download scientific journals and upload them to file sharing networks. We need to fight for Guerilla Open Access. With enough of us, around the world, we'll not just send a strong message opposing the privatization of knowledge — we'll make it a thing of the past. Will you join us?"9
We find ourselves at a decisive moment. This is the time to recognize that the very existence of our massive knowledge commons is an act of collective civil disobedience. It is the time to emerge from hiding and put our names behind this act of resistance. You may feel isolated, but there are many of us. The anger, desperation and fear of losing our library infrastructures, voiced across the internet, tell us that. This is the time for us custodians, being dogs, humans or cyborgs, with our names, nicknames and pseudonyms, to raise our voices.
Is it possible to erase the distinction between librarian and library patron?
Are libraries and librarians willing to part with (share) some of their privilege and power?
what is the library if it is not on top of a knowledge hierarchy, but it is just one, and not even the strongest node in a network?
what role libraries will play in this slow-motion revolution?
there are no innocent bystanders.
can libraries join the resistance?

This is my wish for you:
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,

Friendships to brighten your being,
Faith so that you can believe,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Love to complete your life.

Not since 1916 has a candidate lost his home state and won the White House. If Romney loses Michigan or Massachusetts and wins the White House, he will be the first candidate since Woodrow Wilson to lose his home state and yet win the election.
The list of candidates who lost their home state and lost the election is long, and it includes Al Gore, George H W Bush (1992), Hubert Humphrey (1968), George McGovern (1972), and Adlai Stevenson (1952 and 1956- double play).
Right now, Romney isn't just losing one home state (since he has two to pick from, the chances of him winning one of them would seem to increase), he's losing them both.
And down the ticket? His Vice Presidential nominee, Paul Ryan, is also losing his home state of Wisconsin.
Here's the break down via polls right now:
In Paul Ryan's home state of Wisconsin, Obama leads by 7 points.
In Massachusetts where Mitt Romney was governor, Obama is up in three different polls by 28 points, 22 points and 18 points.
And in Michigan where Mitt Romney's father was governor and Romney grew up, Obama holds an 8 point lead over Romney.
In Michigan, Mitt Romney had the advantage of being the son of the beloved former Governor George Romney. But Mitt Romney stabbed Michigan (and his father, a former auto exec who managed a turn around in very challenging circumstances) in its heart when he wrote, "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt". Michigan knows that Mitt Romney doesn't care about jobs in America or American manufacturing. They also know that he's two faced, because after Obama rescued the auto industry, Romney tried to take credit for it. That doesn't go over well in the heartland, where they tell you to your face if they don't like you.
In Massachusetts, Romney started off well but after his party lost the midterms, he was accused of basically pulling a Palin. Romney was never around for the last two years of his governorship. A March 2005 poll found that only 32 percent felt Romney should be re-elected if he ran for a second term as governor. It got worse. In 2006, Romney spent 212 days out of state, campaigning.
In 2006, his disapproval ratings hit a new low with 65 percent of residents disapproving of his job performance, as residents grumbled that he was never around.
"He was basically never here," says Kilduff, a Republican who says she was annoyed when Romney poked fun at Massachusetts and also when he swooped in to take over the Big Dig project after a woman was killed in a tunnel accident.
"I don't think anyone should be micromanaging when they're not here."
As he left office, he managed to bounce up to 59 percent unfavorable for his job performance, if you can call near 60 percent unfavorable an "up".
When familiarity breeds contempt, it doesn't bode well. Those states have stories to tell, and when those stories are about exceptionally disappointing job performance numbers and a betrayal of honesty and basic American values, the nation tends to listen.

etour | My OHIO Portal
ATHENS, Ohio (May 23, 2005) -- Three Ohio University students have won David L. Boren/National Security Education Program (NSEP) scholarships this year. Teresa Reimers, Giorgina Ramirez and Jess Wilhelm received awards up to $20,000 to study abroad in countries outside of Western Europe.
"I'm very excited once again because Ohio University has an outstanding record in regards to the Boren/NSEP scholarship," said Connie Perdreau, coordinator of Ohio University's program. "It really shows how globally minded Ohio University students are."
Reimers, a master's student in communication and development studies, received an NSEP graduate scholarship to study in Indonesia.
Ramirez is a junior majoring in international studies with a focus on Asia as well as a Japanese minor. Ramirez will pursue her Boren Scholarship at the Ohio University program in Chubu, Japan.
Wilhelm is a sophomore in the Honors Tutorial College majoring in astrophysics, with a certificate in Asian studies and minors in mathematics and French. He will pursue his scholarship in Beijing, China, next year. Wilhelm also received the Goldwater Scholarship this year and will be conducting research this summer in Heidelberg, Germany.
The Boren/NSEP goals are to increase international understanding, enhance international cooperation and security, and to strengthen the U.S. economic competitiveness. Students are funded for the cost of their travel and program, education and living expenses.
"The Boren/NSEP funds students to go to countries outside Western Europe," said Perdreau. "It promotes diversity and emphasizes the importance of the less commonly taught languages such as Russian, Arabic, Chinese and Korean."
The Boren/NSEP Scholarship program began in 1994 and since then Ohio University has had 20 students receive more than $250,000 in scholarship money. In the past, Ohio University students have traveled to Paraguay, Thailand, Vietnam, Chile and Egypt to name a few. The scholarship is unique in that it awards both graduate and undergraduate students to study in countries that are less traveled but strategically important for the global education of American students.

Kevin Kwan, best-selling author of Crazy Rich Asians, is back with a wickedly funny new novel of social climbing, secret e-mails, art-world scandal, lovesick billionaires and the outrageous story of what happens when Rachel Chu, engaged to marry Asia's most eligible bachelor, discovers her birth father.
On the eve of her wedding to Nicholas Young, heir to one of the greatest fortunes in Asia, Rachel should be over the moon. She has a flawless Asscher-cut diamond from JAR, a wedding dress she loves more than anything found in the salons of Paris, and a fiancé willing to sacrifice his entire inheritance in order to marry her. But Rachel still mourns the fact that her birth father, a man she never knew, won't be able to walk her down the aisle.
Until: a shocking revelation draws Rachel into a world of Shanghai splendor beyond anything she has ever imagined. Here we meet Carlton, a Ferrari-crashing bad boy known for Prince Harry-like antics; Colette, a celebrity girlfriend chased by fevered paparazzi; and the man Rachel has spent her entire life waiting to meet: her father.
Meanwhile, Singapore's It Girl, Astrid Leong, is shocked to discover that there is a downside to having a newly minted tech billionaire husband. A romp through Asia's most exclusive clubs, auction houses and estates, China Rich Girlfriend brings us into the elite circles of Mainland China, introducing a captivating cast of characters and offering an inside glimpse at what it's like to be gloriously, crazily China-rich.
©2015 Kevin Kwan (P)2016 Audible, Ltd
"Story as good as the first - Audio edited poorly."
Kevin Kwan provides a sequel to CRAZY RICH ASIANS which matches in excitement, lavishment and so much spendor you find yourself taking notes!
My only negativity about this Audiobook, and the reason why I didn't give it a 5-Star review, is that the editing of the voice-actor is not up to scratch. The actor provides a faultless performance. However there were many distracting mid-sentence or mid-phrase pauses which obviously made by the voice-actor as tools when reading for an eloquent recording, as is the norm when recording Audiobooks, but the editor/engineer should have removed these prior to publishing to provide a seemless listening experience.
"More Style, Less Substance"
More plot!
I'm not going to pretend Crazy Rich Asians was something deep and meaningful, but while it was a fun beach read it had some sense of structure and story. China Rich Girlfriend seems to tie off the handful of loose ends from the last book and pad it out with too much label dropping and luxury scene setting.
Definitely see it being made into a movie. Hopefully it won't be white washed, whoever plays the characters.

Our Mission
To enhance our members' profitability by providing innovative, high quality, least-cost products, programs and services through a well operated, profitable, customer-sensitive agricultural cooperative.
Our History
Since Producers Cooperative Association was formed in 1943, it has become one of the largest member-owned local agricultural supply cooperatives in the nation. Visionary leaders, loyal members and dedicated employees have worked together to build a sustainable cooperative.
1940s... Brazos County Producers Cooperative Association chartered at least 17 members who loaded grain from boxcars to feed primarily turkeys and chickens. The first year of business yielded $4,355 in savings. As local dairy business gained momentum, Producers began to meet their feed needs. A locker division also provided members with custom slaughtering and processing for all types of livestock.
1950s... As upland cotton production declined, members began to improve pastures with grasses such as Coastal and Alicia. Producers became a manufactured feed hub for local ranchers.
1960s... In 1962, Producers took on its current name and moved from downtown Bryan to the present location. A feed mill, warehouse and store were built. As members became more concerned about herd health, Producers expanded its animal health products and farm/ranch equipment lines.
1970s... A fertilizer division was formed in 1973 and in the following year, Producers began delivering fuel.
1980s... In 1982, Producers built the first automated fueling facility in the area. The first "million-dollar year" was in 1984 as the cooperative had a savings of $1,073,371 (up $328,528 from the previous year). The locker division was discontinued in 1988 and in 1989, a full-line Garden Center was established.
1990s... An addition to the supply store was built in 1994. Other building projects included the fuel center, petroleum building and fertilizer additions.
21st Century... Producers Cooperative Association has continued to grow while remaining customer-sensitive. With loyal members and an independent philosophy, Producers Cooperative will continue to enhance our members' profitability for years to come.

Online platforms partner with EU to remove unsafe products
(BRUSSELS) - The Commission is stepping up cooperation with Amazon, Ebay and Alibaba to more actively tackle potentially unsafe products from websites which sell to consumers in the EU, it announced Thursday.
The EU executive, which was presenting its latest report on the Rapid Alert System for dangerous products, said that in 2016, the system was more actively used by national authorities, who removed more dangerous products from stores. However, more and more of the dangerous products notified in the Rapid Alert System are now sold on online platforms, and protection must apply both online and offline, it said.
"I am pleased that we could agree with Amazon, Ebay and Alibaba to join efforts to remove products notified through the Rapid Alert System from their websites, and I call on others to follow suit," said Consumer Commissioner Vera Jourova.
Ms Jourova said progress had been achieved with China - a persistent offender in the past - and that the numbers of dangerous goods imported from China were on the decrease this year. "This shows that our cooperation with China and our persistence to demand high standards is paying off," she said.
In 2016 there were 2,044 alerts on dangerous products circulated among national authorities through the Rapid Alert System. These alerts prompted 3,824 follow-up actions, such as product recalls. The number of reactions was more than twice as high as the previous years. This shows that national authorities are following up more closely on alerts and taking all necessary measures to make the market a safer place for consumers.
The Commission says it has also worked with national authorities to make the system even more user-friendly and the public website has been modernised to encourage its use by companies and consumers.
Many of the dangerous products notified in the Rapid Alert System are also sold on online platforms or marketplaces, as consumers buy more and more online. In 2016, this was the case for 244 notifications. Several EU Member States have set up specialised teams to monitor webpages and trace dangerous products that are sold online. In addition, Amazon, eBay and Alibaba have agreed to step up their efforts to remove such products once identified by the EU regulatory authorities. For this purpose, the online market places have set up a single point of contact for the authorities.

Differentiated learning
These modules can be adapted for use from ECE to tertiary settings.
If there's one thing that educators learn very, very quickly it is that one size certainly doesn't fit all!
We all expect to be treated as individuals, and our students are no different.
W.E. can help you to
- assess your students' needs in different curriculum areas
- group your students effectively and manage those groupings, working smarter rather than harder
- differentiate by outcome or task to suit specific circumstances
- use your students' learning styles to offer them the best chance at success
- build formative assessment opportunities into your daily routines to optimise student learning at any level.
