Glacially-paced negotiation leaves 18 Irish religious orders with €400 million yet to raise to complete their target redress amount for child abuse victims, the Irish Examiner reported.
Of the 18 orders in question, only one has cooperated with the government idea that the religious orders where abuse took place pay half of the necessary redress to victims, with the Irish taxpayer shouldering the other half, according to the Examiner.
On Friday, Education Minister Ruairi Quinn shepherded a bill through Oireachtas — to be signed by President Michael D Higgins this week — which is to set up a trust fund to which the orders can contribute cash.
Quinn said that the orders' progress thus far have been "unsatisfactory," the Examiner reported.
The total amount owed to victims, according to the government, is €1.36 billion.
To be guaranteed indemnity from civil prosecution, the orders agreed in 2002 to contribute €128m in property and cash to the fund; ten years later, only €105m has been transferred to the state, with orders retaining a fifth of the properties they promised to transfer, RTÉ reported.
At the time of the 2002 deal, the estimated cost of redress was €500m. The 2009 Ryan report on institutional abuse more than doubled the estimated cost, to its current €1.36 billion.
Three years ago, the orders agreed to increase their target transfer amount by €350m, in accordance with the new abuse findings in the Ryan report, but the government called that additional amount insufficient, according to RTÉ.
The orders offered to transfer what they said amounted to €235.5m in property, but only 12 of the offered properties were deemed suitable, the Examiner reported.
"The value of these 12 properties, based on the congregation's own valuations, is approximately €60m," Quinn said.
One of the orders, the Religious Sisters of Charity, has offered €5m if they are able to raise funds from the development of six valuable properties, contingent on the approval of Dublin City Council.
Over the past half-year, only one property has been transferred to the state; 20 properties which were promised a decade ago have still not been signed over, according to the Examiner.
Quinn has said in the past that "nobody wants to bankrupt the orders," IrishCentral previously reported.

Hear a live concert every Friday at 12noon ET from WXPN and NPR Music
Broadcast live from the stage at World Cafe Live
Listen to the Concert Live Friday on the Radio and Online at XPN.org/listen.
During this Friday's free at noon concert, we are taking a course through some of the most exciting soulful blues, funk, gospel and steel pedal music around.
With their vibrant combination of styles, Robert Randolph and The Family Band have marked themselves as one of the most revelatory groups to stem from the church tradition. Growing up in the House of God church, where the pedal steel was a common staple, Randolph was surrounded by a slew of incredible pedal steel players and decided to pick up the instrument at fifteen. Towards the end of his teenage years, the young Randolph was introduced to guitarist Stevie Ray, who opened a whole new way of thinking about steel pedal playing and paved an entirely new approach to Randolph's playing. Breaking away from tradition, Randolph completely restyled the steel pedal approach to mimic certain guitar techniques and sounds and is now considered as one of the top guitarists of all time by Rolling Stone. As his style became an immediate aweing sensation, he started incorporating it into newly written pieces that were performed throughout the New York and later to Philly and Boston. Eventually getting picked up by Warner Brothers, Randolph and his family band were stealing the attention of some of the greatest known musicians- including BB King and Eric Clapton- and subsequently picked up their bags and began touring with groups like The Roots, Pharell and John Mayer.
Their first studio album "Unclassified" was released back in 2003, which was followed by the celebrated sophomore release "Colorblind" three years later. Taking another four years to release their latest effort "We Walked This Road," Randolph and the band are clearly not afraid to take the extra time needed to put together a solid set. Released with the help of T Bone Burnett, the band ambitiously set out to honor the last one hundrend years of African-American music through blues, rock and gospel. Linking together the past and present with recreations of old material and original creations, "We Walked This Road" is a musical journey down the path of musical history. And as someone who spent his childhood centered on styles pre 1970, Randolph cites this album as not only a celebration of the old and new, but as a very personal reflection of his own musical discoveries.

Cawood Castle Garth Project
EventsOur Next event is the launch of our Interpretation Boards. this will be at 11:00am on Friday 2nd April 2010 at the Castle entrance to the Garth.
We are also planning a Newt Night on Sat 17 April 2010 - from 8:00 pm at the Garth Pond. Dress warmly and bring a torch.
Our last event was a test pit dig Tuesday 7 July 09 through to Sunday 12 July. We didn't have a separate finds day this year but we had a conference group visit us.
For the test pits we worked on last year we had some interesting results and lots of help from volunteers from local groups. if you would be interested in joining us for the test pits this year please do.
We have put videos of our previous events up on the web - thanks to Edward Croot who has been filming our work over the lifetime of our LHI grant.

and summaries of our earlier work
Cawood Finds DayVenue: Cawood. 10 June 2006
Even though we clashed with the first England match in the world cup series, we had a good turn out for the finds day. We were really pleased with the response from the village and we found a range of items from several centuries. This included some second century roman pottery and a 13th century lead seal.
A spreadsheet listing the finds can be downloaded via the link below:
Molehill finds dayVenue: Cawood School. 18 October 2005
School children helped our experts wash and examine the finds they had seen on the Sept 04 Mole hill sift day. The children also learnt about the types of evidence people living at different types in history would have left as clues to the way they lived.
Earth works survey weekendVenue: Cawood. 9 October 2005
Fans of Channel 4's Time Team will know the value of the work of 'Landscape Detective' Stewart Ainsworth, whether the site under investigation is a prehistoric camp, a medieval abbey or a downed Second World War bomber. Over the weekend of 8th-9th October, three of Stewart's English Heritage colleagues led a weekend of training in field survey for our Group. They opened our eyes to recognise and interpret archaeological evidence visible with the naked eye, and sometimes staring us in the face. And they showed us how to record what we saw, using a range of techniques from high-tech satellite mapping to simple, old-fashioned taped survey.

New technology improves barcode reader performance
Cognex has expanded its range of code reading tools with the introduction of 1DMax, which it describes as a totally new 1D code reading algorithm, capable of providing an accurate read of virtually every type of code, regardless of the size, quality, printing method, or surface.
"Fast, reliable reading of codes is a high priority for manufacturers," says Carl Gerst, business unit manager for industrial ID at Cognex. "If a barcode reader doesn't have the right technology to keep up with the variety of different codes found in real-world scenarios—everything from uneven lighting, poor print quality, noisy backgrounds, to scratched codes—it can mean time, cost, and frustration for any manufacturer. That is why higher technology image-based readers are rapidly replacing laser-based readers in a wide range of manufacturing and logistics applications."
40 Under 40 – Control Engineering: Know someone working in automation under age 40 in need of some recognition? See the 40 Under 40 awards.
Cognex says that the system's abilities are based on a critical combination of hardware and software. For 1D barcodes, 1DMax is optimized for omnidirectional reading and can handle extreme variations in code quality at high read rates. For 2D codes, Cognex suggests its 2DMax technology for its ability to handle hard-to-read direct part marking and high-speed printed applications.
Cognex image-based readers also feature Ethernet communications, autofocus capabilities, multiple code reading in a single image, image archiving, and more.

PORTSMOUTH — "In cases where the body of the murder victim is not available the prosecution has the burden to prove that the death occurred," Charles Putnam, codirector of the Justice Works program at UNH, said, though admitting it doesn't mean a conviction is impossible.
As the search for Lizzi Marriott, the 19-year-old University of New Hampshire student believed to be slain, enters day 12, the importance of finding the woman's body remains a priority for search officials despite her the killing already being charged with her death and prosecutors moving forward with the case.
According to Putnam, in a case such as this, death of another person is always an element the prosecution would have the burden of proving beyond a reasonable doubt. He also said the examinations normally performed on a person's remains by the state's chief medical examiner and pathologist would provide incredibly valuable information into the cause of the individual's death.
Though he says in cases such as these the prosecution would have the burden to prove death, Putnam could not comment on this case directly and spoke only in general terms. He said not having the remains does not necessarily mean a conviction is impossible.
Seth Mazzaglia, 29, of Dover, is charged with second-degree murder in Marriott's death and officials say there is "credible evidence" that leads them to believe she is not alive. A search for Marriott has been ongoing in the Peirce Island area of Portsmouth since Oct. 12, three days after Marriott was last heard from.
"I'm aware of cases here in New Hampshire where the AG's office has gone forward without the remains of the murder victim," he said.
Whether Mazzaglia would be able to plea down to a lesser charge than second-degree murder should the remains go undiscovered is impossible to say, Putnam said.
Having worked at the AG's office for 15 years, Putnam said he's confident, based on his own observations of that office, that officials there are moving forward with the charge because they believe they have evidence to sustain it.
He explained there may be another person involved who saw Marriott following her death, and that even if a statement was provided by Mazzaglia, the office is ethically bound not to disclose whether any statement was given.
Putnam emphasized the human component of the search as well saying law enforcement officials would, of course, be attentive to that element.
"It can be very distressing for a family not to have the remains of a loved one to mourn over," he said.
With crime scene investigation shows, both reality and scripted, taking over many prime time television slots, Putnam said it's also become normal for Americans to believe crimes like this are solved immediately, but that's often not the case.
Having held the position of chief of the AG's homicide unit for many years, Putnam, while not commenting specifically on the search near Peirce Island for Marriott, said the peculiar characteristics of Great Bay used to both help and hurt cases he'd oversee.
"Evidence washed up that was helpful and evidence that we hoped to get was not recovered because of the current there," he said.
He said challenges like those are exactly the type professionals in the field, including prosecutors who hold the responsibility of proving death beyond a reasonable doubt, deal with.
"Good prosecutors work very hard to meet that burden and they don't take it for granted," he said.
Former chief of AG explains prosecution without finding Lizzi Marriott's body in Portsmouth

The Grand Island Board of Education began its meeting rotation through various district buildings last Monday at Eco Island nature center on Staley Road.
Trustees and administrators toured the facility with Eco Island's coordinator and program originator, Diane Tiede. Tiede retired from her position as a Grand Island elementary school teacher, but remains the driving force behind the facility's use as an offsite classroom.
At the meeting, Tiede told board members that 1,756 students used Eco Island in 2011-12, and she also spoke about the proposed move of exhibits and equipment from their current Staley Road location to the larger adjacent maintenance building.
"(Superintendent Robert) Christmann and I met a month ago," Tiede told the board, "and the other building is going to be a clean slate. ... The spaces are going to have to be different than they are right now." After the meeting, Tiede said that moving materials was not so much of a concern but that the many items hand-painted on the walls of the current facility will be difficult to replace. The Board of Education has decided to place the "white option" for the new bus garage for public vote on Dec. 18. That plan includes moving building and grounds from Eco Island to the existing bus garage behind Charlotte Sidway School. Tiede would then use the building and maintenance facility at Eco Island for classroom and exhibit space.
Regarding that "white option," Director of Business and Finance Joe Giarrizzo said that the district will have to draw $230,000 more than the original $850,000 from capital reserve to keep the transportation center project "tax neutral," and that it is important to "put together the information that we are going to share with the community" regarding costs and construction timelines.
He explained that the $52 million-plus capital project will involve major construction and renovations in all five district buildings. Administrators, architects and project managers are back into "focus groups" at Grand Island High School to get input from guidance, science and technology staff. Their biggest change to that school will be the new technology wing.
"This is a massive project that we will be doing. ... It will affect just about every square foot of that building, "Giarizzo said. "We are looking at what is going to happen with the electrical redo ... wiring, lights, sensors, data drops, SMART Boards. ... Dust collectors will be very important." Giarizzo said the auditorium renovation will involve seating, flooring, stage reconstruction, new lighting, storage, acoustics and the Viking statue.
He elaborated that major timelines will made available. Work on steel framing will be done sequentially, school by school, starting with the high school wing and then the addition at Kaegebein. He indicated that there is "not a lot of swing space" or places to put materials, students, etc., when work begins.
In other news, Director of Curriculum and Instruction Karen Cuddy-Miller spoke about the Board of Education "going green," i.e. using iPads for their paperwork and communications. She said that Wi-Fi access in the Middle School Little Theater is "intermittent" and that using 3G may be preferable with a cost of $160 per month for 10 users. She also talked about Edoctrina software for teachers, which will help them prioritize state standards, use bubble sheets for scoring and assist with teacher observations.
In his Superintendent's Report, Christmann told trustees that the district contribution to the Teacher Retirement System will increase from its current 11.7 percent to 15 or 15.5 percent "a couple of years down the road." He said that increase would take over $1 million from the local budget. District contribution to the Employee Retirement System is now 21 percent. Christmann said that many districts "are on the edge" financially and that soon 15 to 20 percent of them will be insolvent, with cash reserves used up. "The worst area is the north country," Christmann said.
Christmann also asked Sandra Anzalone, principal of Grand Island High School, to speak about the school's dress code. At the last school board meeting, Trustee Paul Krull had indicated that many of the calls he receives from the public are complaints about how high schoolers dress.
Anzalone reviewed the school's current dress code (which may be viewed on line at www.k12.ginet.org), indicating that enforcement can be a problem. Young male staff members seem reluctant to report problems. Many reports do not come in until lunch hours. Students are not allowed to return to class until they change into more appropriate attire. She also said that Homecoming and Halloween always present problems.
In other items, the board unanimously approved use of the Warner Center at the University of Rochester to assist in the search for a new superintendent. Trustees also agreed to revisit how the Distinguished Alumnae luncheon is funded each year. Currently, it is paid out of the district budget.

Tepid economic data and a looming battle royal on Capitol Hill are hitting confidence across American c-suites, according to a new survey Wednesday.
Continue Reading Below
The Business Roundtable's gauge of CEO economic expectations over the next six months dipped to 79.1 in the third quarter from 84.3 the three months prior. Business leaders see the world's biggest economy expanding at an annual pace of 2.2% this year, slightly weaker than the 2.8% growth pace logged in 2012.
"While U.S. business performance remains strong, as evidenced by robust recovery in the automotive sector, business leaders still see headwinds preventing a more sustained, robust recovery," Jim McNerney, Boeing (NYSE:BA) CEO and Business Roundtable chair, said in the report.
Fiscal Woes Pervade C-Suites
Half of CEOs surveyed said they were worried that the fights in Washington, D.C. over raising the U.S. debt ceiling and crafting stop-gap legislation to keep the government running will hinder hiring over the next half-a-year. In the past, such battles have brought America to the brink of what could have been a catastrophic default on U.S. debt, and sparked a downgrade of America's credit rating by Standard & Poor's.
President Barack Obama addressed the Business Roundtable in a speech Wednesday, saying his administration wanted to do more to help U.S. businesses, but couldn't because Washington was "locked up" in a political stalemate. He told the business leaders entitlement and health-care spending represent major economic roadblocks.
The president also called on chief executives to wield their influence to push lawmakers to pass budget and debt-ceiling legislation.
"It's important that you're using your influence in any way you can to get back to regular order around here," he said, asking the leaders to prod Congress to "not threaten the apocalypse every three months."
CEOs Eye Rising Sales, Tepid Hiring
Overall, 32% of chief executives expect to increase payrolls over the next six months, 24% plan on reducing staff, while 44% don't anticipate making any changes. These tepid payroll plans highlight the struggle the federal government and Federal Reserve have faced in boosting employment in the private sector. Indeed, the economy added just 169,000 jobs in August, according to the Labor Department.
Still, CEOs remained optimistic on how well their businesses will perform over the next six months. The survey said 71% of chief executives see sales increasing, 21% expect no change and only 8% are forecasting a decrease. In a bid to keep a lid on costs, 62% of CEOs expect to hold capital plans steady, 27% are looking to increase spending, while 11% are expecting to reduce it.
The Business Roundtable survey includes CEOs from many of the nation's most prominent firms, including ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM), J.P. Morgan Chase (NYSE:JPM), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), and Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO).

It started when i found some sites that focused on car mods for GTA 3. People could then download real vehicles models and scrips for free. So i found some favorit cars wich i downloaded and started learning have to replase them whit the original ones and that ended up be so mutch more fun that i started making a total replasement of all vehicles in the game and following titles. So here i'am, making Real Cars for Gta San Andreas so you don't have to spend all those countles houers and headakes trying to learn the game codes and bug fixing. I whant to finishing of with thanking all model makers for making all this possible.
This mod is the best I've ever had in my life! I can't believe how much better SA became with this mod! Only a few issues with it, but I don't care much about those when the game gets enhanced with better cars, textures and guns. This and some ultra-HD mod makes SA look better than GTA V, hands down.

Dear Liz,
I caught a part of a story about teen depression screening on the Today Show and was curious what you thought about early screening?
Mom of 11 year old twins
Dear "Mom,"
That was great news from the American Academy of Pediatrics (or AAP) and the American Psychological Association. (APA)
NBC News called it a necessary "all hands on deck" approach, with pediatricians and family practice doctors being the first line of defense. In light of the call for action following the recent tragic school shooting in Florida, all doctors will do a routine depression screening for all patients starting at age 12. And continuing assessments from that point on. One out of five teens in the US will have a at least one bout of depression ranging from mild to severe. (American Academy of Pediatrics) The tough news is that 2 out of 3 go undiagnosed and therefore not treated. My hope for parents is that they will work to remove the stigma for seeking help - starting with themselves. Experts urged parents to watch more closely, to talk and listen to their children, to encourage balance in activities and to seek support from professionals. I emphasize follow through on all treatments plans. Parents follow through (and consistency) can be the difference between health and a tragedy. Lastly experts urged parents to remove lethal means (weapons, etc) from access and for more training for pediatricians. Great question.
Safely plan for depression. Parents remove access to lethal means of acting out like weapons. And for pediatricians to have updated training on this critical assessment process. Great question. And prayers for you entering the world of teenagers times two.
If something bad happened to me as a child, but I am fine now-happy and healthy in my life, do I really have to tell? I'm 38 now.
Curious, concerned
Dear "Curious, concerned,"
Important question. And how wonderful that you have managed to overcome the issue enough to have a meaningful fulfilling life. People who have other stability in life be it family, faith, good friends and activities have more resilience and therefore can have no lasting negative effects. In the case of child abuse, if an abuser still has access to children, it is critical for other children to be protected. Abuse, especially sexual abuse, can cross generations because people don't speak up appropriately. Many times it is out of fear or need to protect the abuser. There is a good saying, "families are as sick as their secrets." I always recommend professional guidance on how (and who) for adults to report so it is safe and properly accepted and proper action taken. Children need age appropriate information about personal safety as well (such as understanding private parts boundaries and the difference between good touch, bad touch and confusing touch - and who to tell.) For internal mental health, the test is: if intruding thoughts, memories, dreams or flashbacks contaminate your life, you are not done with the issue and need loving appropriate treatment by a licensed professional.

Actor Matthew Perry has bought a newly built custom house in the Sunset Strip area for $8.65 million. That might explain why he put his West Hollywood condo up for sale last month at $2,995,000.
At his new home, walls of glass in the main living area and master bedroom open to an outdoor dining room, alfresco living room, a synthetic lawn and swimming pool. Steps lead from the infinity pool down to a theater, which has velvet seating for nine, a $12,000 projector and 2-inch-thick underwater pool windows.
The 4,000-square-foot home also has a sleek kitchen centered on a lime green island, plus three bedrooms and four bathrooms. A clean-burning fireplace runs on ethanol, wall panels provide hidden storage, and views run from downtown to the ocean.
Perry's recently listed Sierra Towers condo, which he purchased from Elton John in 2005 for $3.2 million, is on the 22nd floor. The modern unit sits on the southeast corner of the high-rise with walls of glass and a balcony offering skyline views. It has two bedrooms and 21/2 bathrooms in 1,672 square feet.
Sierra Towers has become a celebrity outpost over the years, attracting the likes of Cher, Joan Collins and Lindsay Lohan, according to Times reports.
Perry, 41, starred in the decade-long sitcom "Friends" starting in 1994. Since his days as Chandler Bing, he starred in "17, Again" (2009) and the comedy series "Mr. Sunshine" (2011).
Ben Bacal and Dena Luciano of Keller Williams, Hollywood Hills, were the listing agents on the house Perry bought, while Greg Holcomb of Partners Trust, Beverly Hills, represented him, the Multiple Listing Service shows. Holcomb and Mark Rutstein, also of Partners Trust, Beverly Hills, are the listing agents for his condo.
The Midas touch in Holmby Hills
Jon Feltheimer, chief executive of the Santa Monica film and television studio Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., has sold a Holmby Hills estate for $14.4 million — less than two years after he bought it for $9,812,500.
The 1.3-acre flat property overlooks a fairway at the private Los Angeles Country Club. The 6,400-square-foot house, built in 1927, has five bedrooms and 51/2 bathrooms.
When Feltheimer, 59, bought the property in late 2009, it had been owned by the same family for six decades.
David Offer of Prudential California, Brentwood, was the listing agent, according to the MLS. Christophe Choo of Coldwell Banker's Beverly Hills North office represented the buyer.
Encino home retains that TV vibe
Emmy-winning TV producer Jonathan Littman has bought the "Entourage" house in Encino for $4.2 million.
The setting of the HBO show's Season 7 last year, the gated Tuscan-style villa has 9,010 square feet of living space with a media room, study, seven bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. Features include 22-foot-high beamed ceilings and seven fireplaces. The master suite has an exercise room and French doors leading to a private patio with a spa.
The lot, more than three-quarters of an acre, includes a mosaic-tiled pool, spa and waterfall. An additional 1,975-square-foot outdoor living space has a kitchen, a barbecue, a bar and a fireplace.
Littman, an executive at Jerry Bruckheimer Television, has been a producer for shows including "Chase" (2010-11), "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (2000-present) and "The Amazing Race" (2001-present), for which he shares seven Emmys.
Bob Hurwitz of Hurwitz James Co., Beverly Hills, had the listing, the MLS shows. Jill Krutchik of Rodeo Realty represented Littman.
Lugosi castle gets a bite
Update: A Hollywood Hills home once owned by actor Bela Lugosi, known for his role as Count Dracula on stage and screen, has sold for $2.25 million.
Castle La Paloma, a Tudor built in 1926, features interior arches, vaulted beamed ceilings and bay windows. Its 5,000 square feet include an oversized living room, a breakfast room, a butler's pantry, five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a service wing. The more than a quarter-acre terraced site is in the Beachwood Canyon area.
Lugosi, who died in 1956 at 73, played other villains in addition to vampires. He starred in "White Zombie" (1932), "Bride of the Monster" (1955) and the posthumously released "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959).
The property came on the market in April at $2,367,000.
Konstantine Valissarakos of Sotheby's International Realty, Los Feliz, was the listing agent. Hugh Evans of Partners Trust, Brentwood, represented the buyer.
A news flash from Brentwood
Former local newscaster Paul Moyer has listed his Brentwood home for sale at $9,495,000.
The 1.4-acre estate, zoned for horses, includes a 7,200-square-foot main house, a two-story guesthouse and a swimming pool with spa. The master bedroom suite has a fireplace, dual baths, dual walk-in closets with dressing area and a library with fireplace. Three more bedrooms each have a bathroom for a total of four bedrooms and five bathrooms.
Moyer, 70, retired from KNBC-TV's Channel 4 news in 2009 after working in the L.A. market for 37 years. He co-anchored the 5 and 11 p.m. newscasts with Colleen Williams.
Scott Gibson and Deirdre Daniels of Gibson International, Los Angeles, are the listing agents.
Way nicer than Mockingbird Lane
Update: A Studio City compound owned by actress Yvonne de Carlo from 1950 to 1975 has sold for $6.25 million.
An 8,000-square-foot main house built in 1999, a 1920s guesthouse, a swimming pool, a pool house and a barn occupy the gated 7.6-acre site, which is zoned for equestrian use. The Mediterranean-style main residence contains a 3,400-square-foot master bedroom suite, a great room with a 14-foot ceiling and a screening room. There are four bedrooms and six bathrooms.
De Carlo, who died in 2007 at 84, was known to '60s television audiences as Lily Munster in "The Munsters" (1964-66). Her six-decade acting career included roles in "The Ten Commandments" (1956) and "McLintock!" (1963).
The property came on the market at the end of January at $6,695,000.
Coldwell Banker's Choo handled both sides of the transaction.
Actor Matthew Perry has bought a newly built custom house in the Sunset Strip area for $8.65 million. That might explain why he put his West Hollywood condo up for sale last month at $2,995,000.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me information about how obtaining a work visa in Costa Rica? I checked out the website for Ingles Empresarial and they mentioned working illegally and "crossing the border" every three months? Another option would be to pay a penalty fee if you didn't want to cross the border every three months. Can someone be a little more specific as to what they mean? Cross the border? Where? Will I have problems when I come back to the states? Will I have problems in Costa Rica working illegally? How do people find housing down there? Has anyone lived with a family? How did that work out? Back to top Guy CourchesneJoined: 10 Mar 2003Posts: 9650Location: Guadalajara Posted: Tue Dec 14, 2004 3:02 am Post subject: difficult It is very, very difficult to get a work visa in Costa Rica. I've yet to see a school offer one, or a teacher obtain one. Apparently, the goverment would prefer retirees over teachers. Empresarial, as well as other schools, will recommend that you make a 'run for the border', basically, leaving when your visa expires to visit Panama, getting a new visa, and coming back. Or, like they say, pay a small fine by letting your visa expire and flying home. The fine is not much...around $75 us...which may be cheaper than a border run. This is such common practice that it shouldn't cause you trouble. If you mess around in other things, local politics, narcotics, anything criminal, then yes, you would have trouble including deportation, more fines, and being barred from re-entering CR.

I want to find out if a boarder run is actually worth it. My visa will expire in a few weeks, and Im looking at my options. Im thinking Ill just stay on an expired visa, but what are my chances of bieng cought, and deported??? And if I was deported, could I just come right back, or would I be barred? Has anybody heard of someone being deported? Or if I do decide to go for a border run, where are some good, safe, cheap places to go? -Cheza Back to top Guy CourchesneJoined: 10 Mar 2003Posts: 9650Location: Guadalajara Posted: Thu Dec 16, 2004 1:42 am Post subject: never seen it I have never heard of anyone getting deported as a teacher. If you are working there, talk to your DOS about this and see what experience they have. Otherwise, you can a) let the visa expire and pay the fine at the airport immigration or b) make a run to Panama or Nicaragua on the Tica Bus. Stay two or three days, then go back. Back to top ChezaJoined: 20 Jul 2004Posts: 26Location: San Carlos, Costa Rica Posted: Sun Dec 19, 2004 12:58 am Post subject: Heres what im probably going to do. I have a friend here, who I trust, and he said that his cousin works as the boss at the border crossing with Nicaragua. My friend told me that I could send my passport, and the required exit and enrtry taxes to his cousin, who would then put the stamps in my passport that say that I left and came back in after three days. So that my visa could stay current wothout leaving the country. I know that this is illegal, but what do you think about this, how safe does it sound? Back to top Guy CourchesneJoined: 10 Mar 2003Posts: 9650Location: Guadalajara Posted: Sun Dec 19, 2004 1:02 am Post subject: hmmm Sounds risky. Anytime your passport leaves your hands for someone else's, you run a risk. But, what you describe I have heard of before. I suppose that if you trust your friend...

I am presently working in Costa Rica at a university and they have now decided that we all will become ´´legal´´ or start the process, or we will not work or get paid. The university is footing the bill but we do have to go thru the process of having our certificates authenticated and then we are fingerprinted and criminal record searched. This will probably take a while, But in the mean time, as long as the paperwork is started, we don´t have to do the 90 day visa runs. i personally have enjoyed leaving the country and seeing Panama and Columbia but i do think that it can get a little pricey. this being compared to what you make in salary here. Buses are cheap enough but food and accomodation add up over 72 hours and then i usually have to take 2 days off work, so there´s loss of revenue. The government is clamping down on illegal workers and this profession seems to be one it wants to legalize and collect taxes from , from what i´m told from my employers. However, this is Costa Rica and things do take their sweet time here. Leaving the country by plane and re entering has given me no problems, but i have heard that other people have been asked to show their ticket as proof that they will be leaving CR, at border crossings when re entering by bus. I would never under any circumstances send my passport to someone to ´stamp´, or for any reason. I am in Heredia and loving it, Hope this information helps out .... best of luck with your travels. D.

Since it sounds like one might need a work visa down there, is there any way to get the process started in the U.S? If not, how much does it cost, and what initial steps are needed to get the process started? Back to top doreenpJoined: 13 Oct 2003Posts: 147 Posted: Tue Dec 28, 2004 6:21 pm Post subject: work visas? At the present time, you do not need a work visa to get a job here. I work at a university and have friends who work in language schools and no one at this point has a work visa that i´m familiar with. However, as i said before , things are starting to change. As far as i know you can not start the procedure for a work visa from the states, your employer is the one who applies for a work visa for you. You can get your documents ápostilled or authenticated in the States which is needed. If you read the Mexico forum there is information there on how this is done. hope this helps, pm me if you want more information about getting work in CR. Good luck D.

text: Hello, I don't know if this is the right place to post this so please move it or delete it as you see fit. I am new to ISPConfig. This latest v3 release is my first contact with it. I don't quite understand what is going on with the UI in general. It doesn't give the user feedback about ongoing things. Say for instance I click on a tab. AJAX is awesome but you should at least $("#loading").fadeIn('fast'); and then .fadeOut('fast'); when the AJAX request completes. Right now you click on a tab, don't get any feedback so you click it again, and then no feedback again and you click another tab and another and finally it catches up with your clicks and you get a succession of tab changes... I was instructed to change my password on first login and so I did. I have no idea if it worked or not because I don't see anything. No confirmation, no error. So I log out, log back in and that's how I know the password was changed. I don't mean to sound like a complainer but the software needs some help in the UI department. Including the look... So. What can I do to help out? I won't be able to dedicate a ton of time, but I would sure like to try and improve on the current UI. I don't have any experience with github or svn or whatever versioning system you use, but I'm a fast learner.

Kylie: I did sing live at Logies
Kylie Minogue's management has defended the singer's performance at the Logie Awards.
The pop princess' highly anticipated return to the Australian TV awards ceremony was soured by claims that she mimed throughout the world premiere of her new single, I Was Gonna Cancel.
The 45-year-old's management hit back at the allegations, telling Ninemsn.com that "the performance was live".
They added: "Kylie has backing vocal fillers during the chorus and the two backing vocalists to the side of stage."
A Channel Nine spokesperson also insisted that Kylie's performance was live.
They said: "(Kylie's) live performance of her new single was a great moment in the room and on the broadcast. We were privileged to have her with us and have the world premiere of her new release. It was a highlight of the event this year."
Kylie attended the ceremony in Melbourne, alongside her younger sister Dannii.

Eagle Mountain
From South Africa Rock Climbing Routes Wiki
The striking profile of this mountain leaves no doubt as to the origin of its name. To get there, from reception drive west, keeping on the main track all the way, after about 1.7 kms a 2nd small pond is seen on right. From here the road is bricked and winds up steeply toward the mountain for a few hundred metres until you arrive at the large Arendskop Chalet (a wonderful place to stay!). Park off the road at least 100m before the Chalet to avoid intruding on the privacy of the occupants.

On a lighter note, here's something else I found in my diary from 2009. I think I'd just broken up with my ex and had a series of bad dates.
The entry is titled "Upon reflection of recent disasters, here is what I am looking for..is it too much to ask for?!:"
1. NOT insane (insanity covering: strange mood swings, long periods of not talking, playing mind games, asking strange questions, self harming, depression, self obsession, clingy behaviour, paranoia, inability to commit)
2. Funny
3. Fairy attractive and a good dresser
4. Smart but not too 'i think i know everything and i love to talk about boring shit' smart
5. Book lover
6. Likes to travel
7. Likes to have a laugh and not pretend to be someone they're not
8. Good cook
9. Has some sort of ambition
10. Actually likes me and finds me attractive but doesnt obsess. Likes me just the right amount.
11. Likes cats
That's all I can think of just now.
Haha. Man, almost 2 years on and I am STILL single and STILL having terrible terrible dates. Maybe I have to shorten my list and settle for a fat slob who can at least cook and has a cat?
