Brasilia -- Brazil said Monday it considered claims the US spied on President Dilma Rousseff to be "very serious," and, if proved, were "an inadmissible and unacceptable violation of sovereignty."
Justice Minister Jose Eduardo Cardozo and Foreign Minister Luiz Alberto Figueiredo told a press conference after an emergency meeting with Rousseff they expected a formal written response from the US government.
According to the two ministers, the Brazilian government had demanded a prompt official explanation from US authorities because previous explanations were insufficient and unsatisfactory. The ministers said they had met US ambassador Thomas Shannon and set Friday as a deadline.
Figueiredo said Brazil's next steps would depend on the answers the US provided. Cardozo said US spying on a Brazilian head of state went against ties between two nations bound by a strategic alliance.
The ministers said Brazil was determined to take the matter to various international forums.
"We will be talking with our partners, both developed nations and emerging ones, such as those in BRICS, because we believe this involves all of us, affects all of us," Figueiredo said.
Asked whether Rousseff would go ahead with her scheduled trip to Washington next month, Figueiredo declined to reply. But local press reported the trip could be postponed or even cancelled.
Figueiredo said Brazil would promote a debate on establishing international regulations that prevent spying on private and government communications.
"We want an agreement to regulate Internet use, not to curtail rights, but to protect rights. We want there to be real freedom, so companies, citizens and governments won't be a target of these types of violations," Figueiredo said.
Rousseff has made no formal statements so far, but called the emergency meeting early Monday with several ministers to discuss the scandal.
The moves come after a Brazilian TV program claimed last Sunday US spying activities previously revealed by former US intelligence contractor Edward Snowden had reached as high as the Brazilian presidency. The report was based on documents Snowden had given Guardian reporter Glenn Greenwald, who lives in Rio and contributed to the Globo report. The program said the US National Security Agency intercepted the Brazilian president's phone calls and emails to aides.
In July, after news of US spying on Brazilian government agencies, companies and individuals first surfaced, Globo claimed Brazil was the NSA's largest target.
Both the frequency and content of communications were reportedly monitored, angering officials, who have condemned what they consider to be grave violations of Brazil's sovereignty and basic human rights.
Last week, Cardozo traveled to Washington, where he discussed the earlier spying revelations with US Vice President Joe Biden.
According to Sunday's Globo report, Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto was also a target, with his emails being read before his election. The report also indicated Pena Nieto's voicemails were intercepted, including discussions on potential cabinet members ahead of his 2012 victory.
The Mexican Foreign Ministry said it had asked for an "exhaustive investigation" into the snooping and an official explanation from the US government, adding, if the claims were true, the US would have contravened international rights.

Testimony of Dean Baker
Co-Director, Center for Economic and Policy Research
Before the U.S. House Committee on Small Business
Subcommittee on Contracting and Workforce
At the hearing on
Obamacare and the Self-Employed: What About Us?
March 6, 2014
Thank you, Chairman Hanna and Ranking Member Meng, for inviting me to address the Subcommittee on the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on self-employment. I will make three points in my testimony.
- There is considerable research showing that the fear of losing health insurance coverage discourages workers from leaving a job that provides insurance to start their own business. By allowing workers to get affordable insurance through the individual market the ACA will substantially increase the rate of small business formation.
- There is also evidence that workers leave jobs that do not provide insurance to get jobs that do provide insurance. Since many small businesses have found it difficult to provide insurance for their workers, their ability to get insurance through the individual market should make it easier for small businesses to retain workers.
- The rate of health care cost growth has slowed sharply over the last six years. While the exact reasons for this slowdown are disputed, it is almost certain that the ACA played some role. This slowdown in health care cost growth has reduced the burden for many small businesses that provide insurance.
For these reasons, the ACA is likely to prove to be a strong net positive for small businesses, leading more to be started and making it easier for the existing businesses to prosper.
The Impact of Employer-Provided Insurance on Self-Employment
There is an extensive literature examining the impact of employer-provided health insurance (EPHI) on self-employment. The basic issue is whether workers fear the prospect of being uninsured and therefore are less likely to leave a job that offers health insurance to start their own business than would be the case if they were not dependent on their job for insurance. While studies using data from the 1980s were inconclusive on this issue, several recent studies found strong evidence showing that EPHI discouraged workers from starting their own businesses.
For example, a recent study pooled eleven years of data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Current Population Survey (CPS) (1996-2006) to determine whether workers with EPHI were more likely to experiment with self-employment if they were able to get insurance through their spouse than if they had no alternative source of health insurance.[1] As a result of pooling so many years of data from the CPS, the study was able to get a very large sample, with 81,214 employed men and 75,317 employed women between the ages of 25-64. In statistical tests that controlled for a variety of personal characteristics (e.g. education, age, industry), the analysis found sharply lower rates of transitions to self-employment among workers with EPHI who could not get insurance through their spouse. This result held up across a number of different specifications, which indicates that it was not driven by a statistical fluke.
The study then examined the rate at which workers started new businesses as they turned age 65 and became eligible for Medicare coverage. The study found a sharp increase in the rate of self-employment as workers reached the age of Medicare eligibility. There was no comparable upturn in self-employment around other landmark birthdays, such as age 55 or 75, suggesting that hitting the age of Medicare eligibility was the key factor. Once workers were no longer dependent on their job for insurance, they were more willing to try their chances with starting a new business.
Another recent study examined whether the creation of Individual Health Coverage Plan in New Jersey in 1993 led to an increase in self-employment compared with neighboring states and the rest of the country.[2] This study used the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) for the years 1991 to 1996 to determine if there was a difference in the rate of self-employment in New Jersey in these years compared with those in surrounding states and the rest of the country. The study looked at individuals between the ages of 25-59. This gave a sample size of 18,409 for the Pennsylvania comparison, 40,880 for the Mid-Atlantic states, 66,893 for the Northeast region, and 382,670 for the comparison with the country as a whole.
The analysis found solid support in each case for an increase in self-employment in New Jersey relative to the comparison group. The implied increase in self-employment from the insurance reform was between 16-20 percent.
Finally, a recent study examined whether the ACA's requirement that children up to the age of 26 could remain on their parents' insurance policy increased the rate of self-employment among workers between the ages of 19-25.[3] The study used the Census Bureau's American Community Survey to compare the change in rates of self-employment among this age group in the period just after the provision just took effect, with changes in self-employment rates among workers a little younger or older (ages 17-19 and 27-33) who would not be affected by the provision. This gave them a sample of 2,637,376.
The study consistently found evidence of an increase in self-employment among the affected age group in a variety of specifications. The implied increase in self-employment was 13-24 percent. This result is especially striking since this is an age group in which we would not expect health care insurance to be an especially important consideration.
These three studies examined the impact of EPHI on self-employment using very different tests and completely different data sources. In all three cases the sample sizes were quite large. (By comparison, some of the earlier studies had samples with around 1000 workers.) Based on the findings of these and other studies, it is reasonable to conclude that the ACA will increase self-employment by between 15-25 percent when its effects are fully felt in the next few years.
The Impact of the ACA on Job Retention at Small Businesses
The overwhelming majority of large businesses provide insurance to their workers. Many small businesses find it difficult or impossible to provide insurance to their employees. This is partly due to the fact that a smaller pool of workers is likely to face higher costs and also simply a result of the fact that arranging insurance can involve a substantial commitment of a business owner's time. However, not providing insurance can leave small businesses at a serious disadvantage in hiring and retaining workers compared with larger competitors.
Several studies have examined a "job push" pattern, where workers leave jobs with which they were otherwise satisfied in order to find a job that provides health insurance. This pattern was most closely examined in a 1997 study that used the National Longitudinal Youth Survey.[4] This study examined job changes among men between the ages of 20-27 in 1989. The sample had 5,305 job spells.
This study found that married men working at jobs without EPHI were substantially more likely to quit their jobs when their spouse became pregnant. This would seem to imply that workers became more concerned about finding insurance through an employer when they suddenly faced a greater need for in insurance. While most of the research on this topic has focused on the extent to which EPHI discourages workers from leaving a job where they have insurance, this study and others provide evidence that the need to get insurance is also an important factor leading workers to leave jobs that do not offer insurance.
For this reason, the ACA should be an important factor in leveling the playing field for many small businesses. Since workers will now be able to buy affordable insurance in the individual market, they will not feel the need to leave jobs that don't provide insurance in order to make their families secure.
The Impact of the ACA on Health Care Costs
There has been a lot of attention given to the ways in which the ACA may lead to higher insurance costs. Specifically, by setting minimum standards for acceptable policies, there will be cases where individuals or employers have to pay more than they did when they held policies that did not meet these standards. While there are cases where the ACA has caused some policies to cost more, it is important to note that this is against a backdrop of sharp slowdown in health care costs. Health care costs have consistently risen as share of GDP for more than sixty years. Their share of GDP has been virtually flat in the last four years and actually fell slightly in 2013.
To get an idea of how important this slowdown in health care costs has been, in 2008 the Congressional Budget Office projected that the country would spend $671 billion Medicare in 2014.[5] The most recent projections show that the government will spend just $603 billion in 2014, a savings of 10.1 percent.[6] Most other areas of health care spending have seen a comparable slowing of costs. This means that most health insurance policies will cost less in 2014, even with the requirements imposed by the ACA, than if health care costs had continued on their previous trajectory and the ACA had not been passed. If this slower growth persists then the savings will be even larger through time.
At this point the causes of the slowdown in health care cost growth are not clear. While the economic downturn in 2008 was undoubtedly a factor in the slowdown, the recession can't explain why cost growth has remained slow even as the economy has recovered in the last few years. It will take longer to determine the extent to which cost containment provisions in the ACA have been responsible for slowing the growth in health care costs, but they almost certainly played some role in this dramatic reduction in the pace of health care inflation.
This is certainly good news for employers who provide health insurance coverage. Most immediately this has lessened an important source of cost pressure on businesses. In principle, this slower pace of cost growth should allow workers to earn higher wages in the years ahead.
The main motivation for the ACA was to extend insurance coverage to people who did not have it; however the law will also have important implications for the labor market. A substantial body of research implies that workers who previously felt tied to their jobs because of the need to get insurance from their employers will now more readily change jobs. Many more workers will also be willing to experiment with starting their own businesses.
In addition, many workers had previously left jobs that did not offer insurance in order to find a job that did. Now that workers are able to get insurance in the individual market, more workers will remain employed at small businesses that are not able to offer insurance.
Finally, there has been a sharp slowdown in health care cost growth over the last six years. The ACA was one of the factors behind this slowing of health care inflation. This has substantially reduced the cost of most insurance policies compared with their prior path. This will lead to large savings for businesses that provide insurance.
For these three reasons, the ACA has been a substantial benefit for small businesses. This will become more apparent as the impact of the law is increasingly felt over the next few years.

A recent GAO report said that the Securities and Exchange Commission needs to strengthen its information security and better control access to one of its financial systems, according to FCW.
The agency's financial data became vulnerable during a migration to a new production environment. SEC did not appropriately monitor the company who did the transfer, FCW reported.
The new, faulty system has since been shut down, and the agency has reverted back to the older system, FCW said. Be on the lookout for a possible RFI in the future.

Your website loading slow means you know what, you are losing more than half of visitor promptly.
And if visitor leave your website without reading means your bonce rate increase so Google also not happy with your website and your ranking get down.
Your website rank down means you are losing business.
I can conclude in simple way, if your website loading time increase means you might lose business.
So that's why here we are listing you all top and common cause of slow wordpress website and what ways we can apply to load fast.
Before read all cause I recommend to firstly check your website loading speed on pingdom.com and other below tools.
Common Causes of a Slow wordpress Website
1. Unoptimized Images
You must have uploaded high mb images in your website so it is taking time in loading web pages. And most of time image found as culprit in slowing websites.
Some time people also upload full size image on their web page then resize to get suitable size but even after resizing your image, it takes same space it was taking previously as full image.
Please upload images resolution as per required and also change format of your image into jpg so it take less space in memory.
You can use tinypng, jpegmini and other tools to optimize image before uploading and if you have already uploaded then you can use ewww image optimizer plugin to compress all media images.
2. Too Many plugins
Some time too many plugin also cause for slowing website. Also if your using plugin which is not coded properly also the one of the main reason for slow website.
Actually if we talk about maximum plugin one should keep then there is no such criteria but try to keep less and useful only.
Please use those plugin which are essential for your website and remove all others. You can also remove those plugin which is useful once in a month like image optimization plugin or delete revision post plugin which you can install again when needed.
Please check number of installation, rating and user comment before install any plugin. You can check our guide of best wordpress plugins.
3. Slow web hosting or Cheap/Shared Hosting
Some time your website hosting server also responsible for slowing website as most of hosting company provide sharing server space for your blog or website.
Please check up time, Performance, disc space, customer support, Upgrade Options and security before choosing any hosting service.
Initially you can use share hosting but once you start getting enough number of visitor then you can upgrade your hosting to Dedicated or cloud based.
4. Useful plugin not available
When multiple people visiting your site at once and check single page then for each use wordPress involve a set of steps to find page so it can really slow down your website.
In this case we recommend to install caching plugin, which can make your WordPress site 2x to 5x faster. There are many cache plugin available but I always recommend to use yoast plugin.
5. Complex or bulky Code
Sometime your website get slow due to bulky code or add something which take time to figure out what to show. So by using proper CSS, HTML, and Java script you can get rid of slowing website.
If you are using WordPress then please check theme carefully then only use as most of time themes makes your website slow.
Please read about theme properly and test on your local machine first then use for your site. Once your site load properly then you can use same for your online site.
6. Uploaded Videos Directly to WordPress
If you have uploaded any video directly on your WordPress site then it will take more time to load and if your server is sow then it may take several second in loading.
It's better to choose other free video uploading platform like YouTube , vimeo and dailymotion.
7. Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN)
8. Split Comments into Pages
Hope you like this post and by applying this all tips I am sure you website speed will increase.

Hi from my couch, where I'm sipping lemon-ginger tea and trying to ignore the ache in my throat. At least I'm not alone. This winter will go down as the one that got us all, even the ones who love to say, annoyingly, "I never get sick!" (Guilty as charged). Luckily, I'm prepared. I have a glass of Emergen-C next to me, Cruel Intentions queued up on the screen, and a brothy bean stew in my future, all inspired by this guide. It's a master plan for handling any bug that knocks you down. Vitamin-C-packed salad? Check. Our grandparents best advice? Obviously. Fourteen Emergen-C flavors, ranked? Why not?! If you're feeling sniffly, or worse, this guide is here for you. We may not be doctors—I mean, we're definitely not doctors—but we think you've already turned a corner. That's what I'm telling myself, anyway.

A few weeks ago I linked to an open letter by Tim Maly politely asking that we all unlink our feeds, i.e. stop automatically syncing our blog/Facebook/Twitter/Foursquare/etc. accounts. Here's an excerpt, but read the whole thing:
I noticed that you've started automatically importing your feed from that other service. I can certainly understand why you'd want to do that. Heaven forbid that anyone miss any of your incredibly insightful commentary and linking, just because they don't use that other service. But it creates a problem for me.
You see, I already follow you on that other service. This means that I see everything you post twice/thrice/quarce.
This puts me in something of a bind. I don't want to stop following you on this service or that service. For one thing, sometimes you post things to this service that don't appear in that service. For another, I'd miss out on the unique constellation of contacts and conversation that each service provides. But neither do I want to keep filtering redundant updates in each service.
There's a lot I agree with in that letter and in the past few weeks I've had several conversations with friends about when and when not to link one's feeds. Despite my general agreement with what's written above, I actually do link some of my feeds. This blog's RSS and my Twitter feed both export into Facebook. However I don't link my blog to Twitter and I don't link Foursquare to anything. Perhaps I'm just rationalizing my own behavior but I think this is a defensible setup. And if I'm wrong, I hope you'll tell me; I'd like to not be annoying on the internet.
Reasons to link your feeds to Facebook: The main reason I link my feeds to Facebook is that Facebook is really, really huge. Facebook has made the leap from niche social networking site to essential fabric of the web. According to its statistics for the press the site has more than 400 million active users; by at least one metric, it receives roughly as much traffic as Google. Exact numbers are hard to come by, but RSS readers and Twitter have a much more specialized user base (see "RSS reader market in disarray, continues to decline" and "18 million Twitter users by end of 2009;" I wish I had better numbers for RSS). Therefore if content is not exported into Facebook, many users who would presumably be happy to read it will miss it simply because they don't use RSS or Twitter.
One complaint about exporting one's Twitter updates into Facebook is that the formatting is so different. Fortunately @replies are now automatically filtered from Facebook so this is less of a problem than it used to be. Hashtags still get through which are less useful on Facebook than on Twitter where they can be searched, but their meaning can be deciphered. And hashtags are often used more as humorous commentary than as actual tags to be searched, and that meaning translates to either service.
The vast majority of my tweets that are automatically exported into Facebook are updates I would post separately there anyway, so exporting them is efficient, especially when I'm typing on a mobile device. The integration also prevents me from taking part in some Twitter memes, which is probably a good thing. The only significant downside is that people who use both services see updates twice. But are there many of these people? I use Twitter primarily and only check Facebook when I'm bored, and I assume that many of the people I'm friends with on each service also prefer one to the other. Empirically I know that people leave replies or click on links in each service, so I think the gains outweigh the costs here.
How about importing blog posts? To be honest, I'd rather not import my RSS feed into Facebook. I would much prefer that people subscribe via RSS to get notified of posts more reliably or read my site directly, generating ad revenue for me instead of Mark Zuckerberg. But as mentioned above, Facebook is huge, and many of its users aren't using separate RSS readers. Nor is my site compelling enough that I expect them to make a point of visiting regularly. For these users blog posts are perfectly welcome as imported notes. And for users with RSS readers, these notes are fairly unobtrusive on Facebook. Since I'm more interested in being read than in maximizing ad revenue, I think the gains once again outweigh the costs.
(Incidentally, I've toyed with the idea of sending only a partial RSS feed to Facebook to encourage traffic to the site, but this would be inconsistent with my goal of not being annoying.)
Reasons not to link your blog into Twitter: Many bloggers link to every one of their posts on Twitter, either automatically or by hand. This lets users know that a blog has been updated without having to manually check the site. However this problem was solved more than a decade ago by RSS and RSS readers handle blogs far better than Twitter does. Twitter can present at best an excerpt of a little over 100 characters plus a link, so reading a post requires visiting a new page. This is less than ideal on a computer and potentially worthless on a mobile device.
It's true that there may be some people who follow you on Twitter and don't subscribe to your RSS feed. However this isn't Facebook; Twitter is populated by more tech-savvy people who will use RSS if they want to. If they're already subscribed to your blog, these automated Twitter links are needless duplication. If they aren't subscribed, then there's a good chance they just don't find your blog that interesting. Either way you're not doing them any favors by tweeting about every post.
I do link to individual posts occasionally, but only if I think they're particularly worth highlighting. This can be an effective way to introduce followers to your blog and to drive traffic to specific posts. Hopefully some of these visitors will become regular readers. But if they don't, one needn't force the issue by trying to turn Twitter into an RSS aggregator. Let Twitter be its own thing.
In fairness, I'll note that views on this topic are divided. According to Technorati's 2009 State of the Blogosphere survey, 52% of responding bloggers who use Twitter syndicate their feeds to their accounts; Twitter has become a substitute for RSS readers for some users. Linking blog posts and Twitter is widely practiced and I may be hopelessly conservative in wishing it would stop. (As a producer of content I should like Twitter replacing RSS; please, click over to my site instead of viewing it in Google Reader! As a consumer of content I love full RSS feeds.)
Why not to link Foursquare with anything else: I enjoy Foursquare, but broadcasting one's location on Foursquare is unlikely to be useful to anyone outside of one's own city. Foursquare updates are essentially spam to friends on Facebook or Twitter who are in other locations.
Linking anything else to Twitter: There's a growing tendency to transmit all of one's online activity to Twitter. Before doing so, ask yourself if it would really create value for a significant number of your followers, or if it would be best left to friends on that specific service.
Disclaimer: This advice isn't intended to be universal and you might have good reasons to adopt other practices. Maybe every one of your blog posts really is too insightful to miss, or perhaps you update your blog so rarely that every post is an event. Or maybe I'm totally failing at not being annoying online, in which case feel free to let me know in the comments.

Dear ASAP Supporter
July 2015
We want to let you know how your donation has made a difference to the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children in the Eastern Cape, South Africa.
Thanks to you, we have been able to expand the reach of the ASAP 6-year model and start new drop-in centres with organic gardens, in the most underdeveloped areas of the country. Many more children have access to nutrition, school fees, learning materials, school uniforms, shoes and fees for computer classes. For the caregivers, on-going training programmes have focused on grant-writing, accounting and computer skills, as well as nutrition and permaculture training, so that the women are empowered with the tools they need to establish sustainable organizations and provide holistic care to children.
3.7 million children have been orphaned due to AIDS in South Africa, the world's hardest-hit country, where some 6.4 million people are HIV+. In South Africa, HIV affects men, women and children. Young women bear the greatest burden and their infection rate is more than three times that of young men. Our Youth programmes have focused on adolescent girls to minimize their vulnerability. Giving a young woman an education often means she marries later and reduces her chances of contracting HIV.
While there will never be one single solution for supporting children affected by the AIDS crisis, the ethos of ASAP's intervention is that the proposed change must stand in some organic relationship with what they are already doing. Our ASAP model is proving to be effective in a sustainable manner.
It has been a privilege to lead ASAP from its small beginnings to the established operation it is today and I will continue to have a role, where needed.
We have been searching for a new Executive Director of ASAP for some time and I am now delighted to introduce you to Serai Herbst, who took over my role on 1st July. We welcome her passion and exper tise to the organisation.
I am so grateful for your continued support. Yours sincerely,

Yeah, it's totally going to pop this time.
I can't wear light-colored shirts anymore, because the glimpse of my cavernous navel visible through the fabric is entirely too disconcerting to inflict upon the general public. Luckily, Mia is into band-aids, so once this sucker pops I figure I'll just have her hook me up every morning.
23 weeks, for those playing along at home, and this belly is starting to get in the way.

Ask Lisa D'Amato, winner of America's Next Top Model why she chose Dermefface FX7 over other products: she likes Dermefface FX7 because it's gentle, non-greasy and fades scars quickly.
Tags: how to reduce scars, scar reduction therapy, how to fade scar, scar fading cream, serum to heal facial scars, how to fade deep scars
When will I see results?
That depends on several factors, including the size of the wound and whether it's an older scar.
As a general rule, you'll see results in less than a month. Give Dermefface FX7 three to four months for light or small scars, and at least six months for deep scars and those from injury or surgery.

Oh boy did I have fun walking around that day. I can tell you!. This clip has LOADS of CLOSE UP footage of my ass, just barely covered in SKIN TIGHT black leggings that are shamefully translucent. I loved walking along knowing that my round ass was being filmed for your pleasure. There were loads of people about as well, just out of shot, and you can see the cars go past in the background as I walk along with my ass on show. Towards the end of the clip I turn round and you get to see just how tight my pants are as my CAMEL TOE is there for all to see.I also can't resist and I start touching myself…..And I TOUCH myself a lot. I feel my barely covered ass loving the tightness of the material against my skin. Mmmmmmmm this clip is SO RUDE…..

Gone Fishin'
It's pretty easy for three weeks to pass without my posting here, but I just thought I'd let you all know ... I'm going overseas for three weeks. New York and Los Angeles to be exact. I'll definitely be meeting some of the people that have read this blog for the very first time and I hope to meet a few others too. Like these guys.
Have fun, all. Don't break the place while I'm gone.

About Me
By the time I would have graduated high school, I dropped out, earned my GED and graduated from beauty school to become a licensed hairstylist.
Looking back, I guess you could say I had the early drive of an entrepreneur!
Growing up in a small farming community in Southern Oregon, the conservative, small town culture never served me while I was growing up. Thankfully, I was able to channel my rebellious nature into an outlet of business that allowed me to express myself creatively, and learn how to serve people kindly. In doing so, I began to step into my own power.
Determined to become the best stylist ever, I worked for about 8 years in salons that were… just okay.
But I knew there was more waiting for me, and began to feel like I wasn't living up to my potential.
In my personal life, I had married young and had my two children by 23. While I worked hard to serve women and become the best stylist that I could be, the small town environments in which I lived felt suffocating for my spirit. I felt more and more isolated in my town, my work and my marriage.
As the years passed, a miracle occurred: I discovered other stylists like me who were "small town" women yearning for a bigger stage.
They carried a larger world view, fiercer and more loving than anything around me. Their energy, passion and determination was completely disruptive to any of the small town norms that were expected of them -- expected of us.
I realized that I was one of them.
That this was my tribe.
And I was determined to make real change happen with them by my side.
We started a salon together. I started to learn how to be a smart businesswoman, not only a great stylist. We broke a lot of rules and turned vision into reality by just doing it -- without permission, and no fear to stop us.
From over-the-top customer service, cultivating a beautiful business atmosphere, and invigorating fresh young styles in our work, we made waves.
I was printed nationally for my work. I began educating and mentoring talented upcoming stylists across the country from basics of brilliant hair coloring to how to build a business that really rocked. I was always sought out by newbies to the biz, and I loved assuming the role of coach and mentor.
I took business classes, stretched myself beyond my boundaries and used trial and error to learn and grow.
My kids were growing up and my business was growing too. But I still needed to take another leap of faith. It's not easy to choose to be reborn, all over again… but when several life events shook me to my core. I lost a beloved through death, and had a near death experience with my granddaughter. Looking death in the face changed me. It was a spiritual awakening in a sense.
Even 12 years after my divorce, I knew I needed another major evolution.
My eyes became open to my life. I still loved parts of what I was doing professionally, yet the outside trappings of success did not feed my soul. Even more heartbreaking to me was the realization that many of my relationships didn't either.
I had become too focused on my image and all those trappings (as nice as they were!) and that my life was no longer in alignment with who I was on the inside now.
When I was at my darkest hour, I had to really look hard at what I had created in my life. It was time to get honest with myself and live my life in a way that had real meaning for me again.
I knew I needed to make big changes and lay the complete foundation for my life to finally take course as I demanded. And, I was terrified.
I dropped into a very deep place of listening and only did that which was right for me... Knowing that the quiet still voice of mine was true for me. I began to follow a path of really deeply listening to myself, not only to my thoughts, but to my body, my heart and my dreams -- lucid and not.
As I stripped away from me that which did not serve me any longer I started to add what made my soul and heart sing.
Slowly with each step I gained confidence and was surprised at what my heart was yearning for and what I really wanted.
It was difficult, yes, but oh so necessary. I did not know where this was taking me but I did know it was taking me and I was on the correct path. I cried an ocean of tears that year. I think I had been saving all of my unshed tears over my lifetime to finally be released here.
Not one single day passed that I did not cry.
Until I finally didn't cry any more.
There was a crack somewhere and I was able to see the beauty of our world again. Slowly and surely, I kept walking towards my future -- one that I truly held dear and continue to today.
I was mindful of my life and I arranged my world into one that now reflected the true me – the deep beautiful joyful me that was fully in alignment of body, mind, spirit and soul.
From what society or religion says they "should" be, and even what their own egos tell them they "have to" be.
My heart breaks that they are held captive by these things, and don't even see their own incredibly beautiful souls. It saddens me the lies that so many women tell themselves in order to stop themselves from changing.
I am here today to remind you of what you came here to create.
Of the impact of what your true, innate gifts could -- and will -- have on the world.
Do you dream of creating a business that invites like-minded souls into a successful, collaborative environment?
Are you ready to create a business where life-work balance is honored -- knowing that a service-driven practice can be draining at times for the providers?
Are you ready to say yes to a culture where everyone works as a team (even if they are independent contractors) and create a truly supportive, win-win culture with very little drama?
If so, I'm here to help you achieve these dreams. They're possible.
And I'm a living example of it.
I want to help you create a place of business where your peers, co-workers or employees can be professional and yet it not feel they're living the grind.
Just imagine nurturing a culture where the service flows organically and from love -- where there is little or no separation between life and livelihood.
But, where do you begin?
There's the practical side of justifiable worries and fears from money to time.
With financial risks, should you start small, and expand later? Or really just go for it? There's the fear of not having enough time for starting something new, let alone managing it all by yourself.
But, sometimes worse, is how your relationships may be affected by pursuing your dreams.
Even well-meaning family and friends might not understand the dynamics of your business -- they bombard you with advice that is not applicable, and it sends your into anxiety and self-doubt.
I know this feeling -- the secret, quiet terror that when you finally commit to making big changes in your life and business that your whole world may flip upside down and never recover.
But the truth may be that you already feel this world-flip coming, whether or not you decide to choose it.
This is not a time to wait for life to turn your world upside down.
It's a time to be brave. Strong. And smart.
It's time to feel clear and solid in your choices. Like you can do it!
You want to feel free, yet remain present and mindful of how you are creating a business -- and co-creating relationships and that feel "right " to you. Yes, it's possible to sustain a small business and that maybe it may even feel… effortless.
Like magic.
When I work with women, we take a smart approach that's full of soul-centered decisionmaking and heart-focused integrity. We step into bravery, strength and smarts and create a surefooted path to help you achieve your dreams.
When we work together, we will:
Come up with a vision statement and a mission statement (or we revisit them). Connect to your "why" and "how" of what you are doing, and serves as a continual reminder if you ever veer off the path.
Identify specific goals and a timeline around achieving them
Identify where in the natural life cycle of business your business is currently, to brainstorm the proper strategies for moving forward
Identify your leadership style to really lean into your innate way of serving, while exploring other styles that can help expand your leadership skills and inspire greater business impact
Explore what inner assets and what outer assets are always available to you
Partner on ways to leverage those inner- and outer-assets to the fullest extent you can
Identify your fall-back operating system when you are in conflict -- this helps you expand your toolbox for dealing with problem situations, and expands your ability to react to workplace conflicts
Begin to put it all into action, feeling accountable to yourself and your dreams for finally "doing it" -- with my support to help you along the way.
Your peers and employees can be professional, cutting-edge and amazing at what they do -- and yet not feel like stuck in ratrace, or worried about their futures.
When you start living the life you are meant to live, there is a spiritual pull that compels you to do just one thing -- that one thing that finally allows the Universe to open doors that you didn't even know were there.
When you surrender and step through one of the portal doors your life is one of love, joy, magic, ease, wonder and fulfillment.
That's why I'm here.
Quit hiding your gifts. Finally accept them, and even embrace, them. No matter how quirky they may be!
Intersect your gifts with your wisdom. Unleash your strategizing mind and to take action to finally feel solid on your path.
Discover the intersection of mind, body, and spirit. Because that's where true, lasting transformation resides.
When these things begin to loosen up in our coaching, I know that you will discover the wealth of innate courage to follow your true nature, instead of your doubt.
Your love is meant to lead you, because love is what always triumphs.
I will help you harness your own power and positively change your world, so you can continue to repeat the process of giving, serving and helping others, over and over.
If you're determined to step into your dreams, reach out by emailing me today at email@example.com
I'm the thought-partner and coach who can help you realize them, and I cannot wait to meet you, learn about you, and discuss your goals.
Here's to you and your magic,
- Joyfully Rebecca PCC CPCC

We are pleased to announce that aggravated assault charges have been dismissed against one of our clients. The charges were pending in Madison County, Mississippi.
Our client, DV, was charged with aggravated assault in Madison County, which occurred in Ridgeland, Mississippi. She was accused of stabbing the alleged victim. DV hired me as her lawyer immediately after she was arrested.
Bond was initially set so high that DV could not get out of jail. The first order of business was to get a bond reduction. Within one (1) week of hiring me, I got her bond reduced by 80%, and she bonded out of jail and went home to her family.
As soon as DV made bail, we went to work on the defense investigation of the case. DV said she acted in self-defense. We located a witness who saw everything that happened. This witness was never interviewed by the police. We convinced the witness to give us a recorded statement. The statement backed up DV's claim of self-defense.
As a lawyer who handles aggravated assault cases in Mississippi, I knew that self-defense would be a defense to this charge, so we next began to look into the character and background of the victim. Our investigation revealed that the victim had criminal convictions for false pretenses in Hinds County, and was currently on probation. We also discovered that the victim had an active warrant for her arrest. This information was very relevant to the victim's credibility as a witness. This information was disclosed to the prosecutor as required by Mississippi criminal discovery rules.
Trial was set to begin on Tuesday of last week. The day before trial, the prosecutor notified me that the State had agreed to dismiss the aggravated assault charges against DV. This was certainly the best result possible, and the prosecutor should be commended for disposing of this case prior to trial.
As a criminal defense attorney, the most rewarding part of my job is to call a client and tell them that criminal charges have been dismissed. It was even more rewarding in this case because there was never a doubt in my mind that the client was innocent of these charges. I also had no doubt that the "victim" would have killed the client had she not defended herself. It was a clear case of self-defense under Mississippi aggravated assault law, and it was our privilege to protect DV and keep her out of prison. And now that the charges have been dismissed, we can even get the charge expunged from her record.
This aggravated assault case shows some things you need to know if you are charged with assault in Mississippi:
(1) Just because you get arrested, charged or indicted for assault, it does not always mean you will be convicted;
(2) If you get charged with assault in Mississippi and think it was self-defense, it probably was;
(3) If you are charged with assault in Mississippi you need a criminal lawyer who handles assault cases–and has the knowledge and experience to protect your rights and keep you out of prison;
(4) If you get charged with assault in Mississippi, you need a lawyer who knows how to investigate and prepare assault cases before trial.

As a treat for The Scot's office (and because I like a good holiday themed baking project) I made these little Peepcakes. I really wanted to get 4 colors of Peeps, but as they were packaged in sets of 15 and we're not huge eaters of Peeps (and I was only making 24 cupcakes), I held off on the blue and purple. For this year, anyhow.
The cake itself is one of my favorites. I call it Bunny Cake as it's a recipe I first learned years ago for a rabbit-shaped cake but nowadays make when I want something simple, but not plain. I'll share it someday for Eat Something Sunday. Basically, it's a dense buttery cake that tastes of awesome. The cupcakes were topped with the fluffiest vanilla buttercream I've ever made and dipped into shredded coconut (both tinted green, of course) before each little Peep got a home on top. Super simple, but super fun. I quite like how the stripey cupcake liners add to the Easter basket effect.
May your Easter be full of joy and celebration and may your Easter baskets be full of treats!

Dark Chocolate Banana Nut Pops
- Line a baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the almond butter onto each of the eight banana slices. Place half of the almond butter-topped banana slices on the remaining half of the almond butter-topped slices to make four stacks of two banana slices with almond butter between and almond butter on top. Place one of the remaining banana slices on top of each stack. Push a lollipop stick or wooden skewer all the way through the center of each banana stack.
- Place melted chocolate in a shallow dish. Place finely chopped almonds in another shallow dish. Roll each banana stack in the melted chocolate. Use a thin metal spatula to spread the chocolate into a thin, even layer over the stacks. Immediately roll in finely chopped almonds. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- Freeze banana pops about 30 minutes or until firm. Serve straight from the freezer.

Abeego: A Reusable Cotton/Hemp Plastic Wrap Alternative
Here's a great alternative to plastic wrap and zip-lock bags. Abeego products are made out of an organic cotton/hemp fabric treated with beeswax and plant extracts, and they're all fluid-resistant and washable in cold soapy water.
The Abeego product line is handmade in Victoria BC. The line is made with organic cotton/hemp fabric treated with a beeswax and plant extract treatment developed after months of experimentation by owner Toni Desrosiers. The line consists of three styles of food packaging: the "Wrap" for sandwiches, the "Snack" that holds about ¾ cup of nuts, seeds, fruit, granola, etc., and "Flats," a plastic-wrap alternative. The products feature a simple design of natural unbleached fabric and your choice of a simple colorful embellishment.
The flats work by being pressed in place. The beeswax treatment is slightly sticky so they hold their shape and form a seal around the bowl or container you are storing food in. They work best when slightly warm, but do not heat them since the wax is likely to melt away. Reusing them is easy, as they can be hand-washed in a mild cold water soap wash.
Abeego products are a fantastic replacement for disposable food packaging. They are well-designed and easy-to-use. You can buy them at various retailers across North America or online through abeego.ca.

Recreational Water
Recreational water is the water we fish, boat, play, swim or wade in. There are two types of recreational waters, treated and untreated.
Treated recreational waters are those that undergo some type of water filtration and disinfection; such as in swimming pools, hot tubs, amusement or water parks, splash pads and interactive fountains. It is estimated that there are more and 300 million visits to treated aquatic venues annually.
Swimming is an excellent way to stay in shape and play during all kinds of weather. Tennessee has an array of indoor and outdoor aquatic venues. Public swimming facilities (including public hot tubs and water parks) are regulated by the Tennessee Department of Health, Division of Environmental Health and by the six contract health departments of Memphis/Shelby, Jackson/Madison, Nashville/Davidson, Chattanooga/Hamilton, Knoxville/Knox and Sullivan Counties.
Cleanliness, maintenance, and chemical balance within these treated recreational water venues are essential in preventing water related illnesses. Filtration and disinfection with chlorine or chlorinated compounds is effective in killing most pathogens. However, the appropriate contact time and dose must be administered commiserate with the contamination load of the water. Some parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium are resistant to chlorine and require additional contact time and concentrations to be rendered inactive. Care must be exercised to ensure that over chlorination does not result in chemical burns.
We encourage swimmers to use pool test strips to check disinfection and pH levels before swimming. Staying informed and knowing the disinfection level of your favorite venue helps prevent waterborne illness from pathogens and chemical exposures. Free pool test strips may be available from Healthy Pools.Org or they can be purchased in most department stores where pool supplies are sold.
Local environmental health specialists inspect public swimming pools at least monthly. Inspection scores are posted at the aquatic venue and are available at the local health department. If you would like to have more information about your favorite Tennessee aquatic venue, please call your local health department .
Untreated recreational waters include springs, streams, ponds, lakes, rivers, or oceans. Tennessee is a geographically diverse state consisting of large Mississippian flood plains in the west and the Appalachian Mountains in the east. We are proud of our water resources and boast over 926 square miles of surface water and over 60,000 linear miles of streams hosting diverse fisheries and enticing people to come out and play. These water bodies naturally contain bacteria, viruses and parasites from the environment. This water may be further contaminated with nitrates and chemicals from land use practices in the surrounding watershed. Before fishing, boating, swimming, or wading in streams and rivers it is a good idea to check for fish consumption or water contact advisories from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) or the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC).
TDEC and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintain a water quality report for surface streams, which includes a list of impaired streams. An impaired stream or water body is one that is not meeting the water quality criteria for its designated use due to a pollutant or significant physical alteration to the water body. These streams are listed by watershed and may be found on the impaired streams list or on this interactive map.
Accidental ingestion of both types of recreational water can lead to illness from exposure to pathogen or chemical contaminants.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends six steps for healthy swimming in public swimming areas.
Investigation & Risk Factor Survey of Splash Pads:
In 2014, we investigated an uncommon waterborne salmonellosis outbreak. There was one risk factor in common to many of the cases -- having enjoyed water recreation at a splash pad. The investigation lead to a state survey of water quality and patron behaviors at splash pads. Read about our Waterborne Outbreak of Salmonellosis Investigation & Risk Factor Survey of Splash Pads shared by the Journal of Environmental Health from their June 2017 issue.

Swiss Army Watches (Victorinox,Wenger) Full Guide-Review
Wenger and Victorinox
Swiss Army watches form a separate department of a company that unites Victorinox and Wenger brands under one roof (only Victorinox carries the additional label "Swiss Army," while Wenger, being a sister company, opts for "Swiss Military" or simply "Wenger"). One of the most popular products Swiss Army offer must undoubtedly be the knives – a selection of several hundred models of them, from basic single blade to highly elaborate and specialized variations.
The way in which both Victorinox and Wenger design and make their watches derives from their attitude to pocket knife development: attention to detail, precision, stress on function, and affordability. It's interesting that the headquarters of the manufactures are located in both French and German speaking parts of Switzerland; two different world views having impact on a whole that becomes more than the sum of its parts.
Swiss Army has a century long history that involves the second world war, American GIs, and a lesson in monopoly abuse prevention that foreshadows Microsoft's troubles. We would like to focus on two particular facts that relate to watches.
First, the source of the name Victorinox: it's an acronym of "Victoria", the founder mother's forename (the other part involves a chemistry term). The word "Ebel", the trade name of another successful watch brand, too consists of the names of its founders. Second, Swiss Army made surgical instruments – similar to Tiffany & Co., which, however, went on to pursue the direction of jewelry design (though they do design watches).
Swiss Army rarely break into new territory in their watch design. Instead, they compound the basic principles of clarity, utility, and Swiss precision to produce consistently reliable collections of timepieces. Wenger Aerograph Cockpit is a notable exception, featuring a unique "lunch box" case (though it too resembles Bell&Ross).
Several additional features stand out more than the rest, giving the watches a characteristic appearance: the cross logo, usually red or white, that hovers above the dials as a sort of modern amulet is one; another is the preference for dark (black, brown, gray, blue) and often matted faces. Swiss Army indeed offer white watches, but the overall brand spirit seems to harmonize better with the darker ones – the only exception being ladies models.
Swiss Army make both quartz and automatic (mechanical watches) – often the same watch model comes in both versions – that include several complications: day and date spread in various configurations on the dial, alarm, dual time and chronograph. Additional utilities include water resistance, lume on the hands and indexes, and more.
Despite being united under the aegis of Swiss Army brand, Victorinox and Wenger make separate collections of watches. This guide accordingly reviews the most established and popular lines by each brand. Click on the links to read in-depth dedicated reviews:
Victorinox Watches
Active Convoy, Excursion, and Summit XLT consist of robust cases, outlined by a unidirectional rotating bezel in the latter model, that feature a dial with powerful color contrasts. Prominent white numerals stand out on a black backdrop – sometimes the colors are reversed – and in nighttime receive a chemical luminous enhancement. The function of legibility is given a foremost treatment in these outdoors&sports timers.
Classic Alliance and Ambassador watches present a dressy front where confidently organized dials blend seamlessly with the bracelets or the straps. Alliance is a rare Swiss Army collection that offers white faces which go well with the overall design; both lines feature a dark sunburst face as well. Also available are two-tone and rectangular pieces. Functions include day, date, and chronograph.
Officer's and Infantry watches simplify the design as much as possible: thinner bezels result in larger and more visible dials; fat Arabic numerals further improve legibility. Green and black colors dominate these lines, though an occasional white slips in. Lugs, the most vulnerable joints in any watch, were given extra weight.
Maverick watches introduce more creativity and versatility to Victorinox inventory of casual timepieces. Maverick stands out as entry level diving watch – water resistant, luminous, and equipped with a unidirectional bezel (and a chrono function in some models); Cavalry leaves a mark with distinctive lugs and case shape. Swiss quartz movements.
Ladies Vivante and Diamonds watches expand Victorinox selection into the jewelry and fashion spheres. Smaller rectangular and round pieces contain diamonds, mother-of-pearl, and two-tone bracelet configurations. Some visual references to Ebel Brasilia.
Professional Dive Master and Professional Alpnach watches encase and display a range of pro oriented diving and sports functions: water resistance up to 500 meters, bright orange colors visible in dark underwater conditions, luminous bezel indexes, and a chronograph complication. Among Victorinox's best outfitted (but also costliest) timepieces.
Chronograph, Titanium Chrono: chronograph function spreads across the entire range of Swiss Army collections, receiving a special mention in the Titanium subdivision. There it emerges as a decorative element of the main actor – the titanium made case and bracelet – and appears in a fresh, different light.
Mechanical and Vintage watches comprise the engineering and historical aspects of Victorinox watchmaking. Most major collections, including Pro Diver's, Officer's, Ambassador, and others, encase a mechanical automatic (self-winding) variation.
Aerograph is a master collection consisting of four lines: Cockpit, Countdown Chrono, Day-Date, and Vintage. Without a doubt, the Cockpit variation demonstrates the most original design – the lugs merge with the case to create a unique square outline, from which the round dial protrudes.
Aquagraph offers an alternative to Victorinox Professional Diver. Wenger watches in general opt for less busy dials, dispensing with numerals and markers where possible – this quality is evident in the Aquagraph too. Deep green and red bezel will facilitate legibility in murky aquatic environment.
Terragraph is a solid casual quartz watch featuring stainless steel case, 100 meters water resistance, and surprisingly assured, both business-like and simple, dial design. Complication include date, day, alarm, power reserve, and dual time.
Battalion watches further expand Wenger's reach into sports and outdoors activities, particularly racing and diving. In one model, a tachymeter scale combines with a chronograph and a red-black-white grid to produce an aggressive, muscular timer; in another, oversized indexes and a unidirectional bezel render the piece an effective diver's instrument.
Commando watches stress camouflage qualities by featuring matted or dark dials and bracelets (straps in most models), and bright lume. Besides disguise, this line stands out as highly versatile in terms of complications&functionality.
Field Classic gives a casual alternative to the function loaded Battalion Field: instead of complications it focuses on powerful contours and robust design. The angles in Field timepieces generate a sense of urgency and gravity that's characteristic of many Wenger, and indeed many Swiss Army watches.
I have what appears to be an early version Swiss Army watch but cannot find it on any of the watch sites. Watch is black face stainless steel waterproof showing only the Swiss Army on the face of it. Has both time military and standard numbers. Strap is black leather/canvas combo with the world Dakota stamped on it. Can anyone identify this watch?
Definitely a very well-laid out hub here. I enjoyed the article and am now following you on HubPages! =)
Not only a very comprehensive review but great presentation and layout of this hub.

Current Mood: more than good 🙂
Yesterday was a really fun day. At morning, mamo and mami visited us as they are going to offer Umrah again MashaAllah for the 5th time. We recall khala's wording: "Why do you commit so many sins that you have to go for Umrah as compensation". They stayed more than two hours after a very long time. All of us talked alot, discussed almost every thing and enjoyed alot. After thinking many times, i finally asked mami to bring a scarf cap (bonnet cao) for me. I was not confirm should i ask her or not. But she was more than delighted and aksed me what type of scarf i use to wear? 😀 it means she will bring some scarf along with cap yupeee…….They are leaving at 23rd and will inshaAllah come back after 37 days trip. THey will also visit Jordan and Syria……..wow………mami was so excited and i am more to think about my scarf. They did not leave yet but i have started waiting for their return.
At noon, my laundry period started which ended at 4pm. THen i cooked delcious chicken karhai. I liked it alot but A was considering it as a sweet dish dont know why. He remain complaining whatever i cook.
At 6:30, we left for phups's home as muneeb (phupo's grand son) truned 1. Every one was so much excited to have me (dont know why). After pointing out others, i realized that yes it is true that i have been visiting a pure family function after a very long time 😮 it was fun out there. Although no one of my fellows was there (as everyone got married and settled in others cities) but still i enjoyed the function.
We returned at 10:30 at night. I got deadly tired and rushed to the bed after doing some remaining things.
Weekend ended with fun 🙂 and em ready for the tiring week now.

Phelps R. Hope, CMP, is senior vice president of meetings and expositions for Kellen Company, an association management company with offices and representation in the United States, Europe, China, the Middle East, India and Southeast Asia. He can be reached at email@example.com or 678-303-2962.
Many of the world's hidden gems are debuting on the national stage at a time when the meetings industry itself is bustling. It's worth exploring these emerging global destinations to find the best deals and to ensure that association members and meeting attendees are satisfied.
First, we should qualify "emerging" as it relates to this topic.
Here are a few exciting emerging global destinations to watch, categorized by global region.
Poland is gaining steam as a key meeting destination, with a strengthening economy and competitive prices. The country is investing in multiple meeting hubs, the largest ones being Warsaw and Krakow where the new International Conferences & Entertainment (ICE) Congress Center opened this year. Both cities expanded their hotel offerings in recent years with all major international hotel chains joining in for a piece of this expanding market. Notably, Poland's meetings industry currently accounts for two percent of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), with great potential for growth.
Portugal continues to be among the more affordable meeting destinations, despite its increasing popularity. In 2013 alone, Lisbon hosted no fewer than 125 association gatherings and after hosting the Professional Convention Management Association (PCMA) Global Professionals Conference in the summer of 2014, I expect 2015 to be an especially good year for the country.
Azerbaijan is regarded as an industry innovator, with a meetings and tourism industry that is strongly backed by the government. The country has a rich historical culture that it is eager to showcase, and its favorable location, straddling Eastern Europe and Western Asia, makes it not only an accessible destination, but also a desirable one. In recent years Baku, Azerbaijan's capital has seen a tremendous amount of infrastructure growth. Since 2011 luxury hotels have been opening all over the city. Hilton, Marriott and Fairmont all have a presence in this market with the latest development coming from The Trump Organization, which in December 2014 announced plans for a new hotel to open in June 2015.
Oman is a relatively new addition to the meetings world and is strategically located in the heart of the Middle East. The country's landscape, climate and rich history are being showcased to the world due to large government initiatives that have taken place in recent years. There has been substantial improvement in the infrastructure, including upgrades to roads and airports, and let's not forget the development of the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre, which is set to open in 2016. To show its commitment to the development of the convention industry, the Oman Tourism Development Corporation has partnered with PCMA to provide training and education to Omani associations, increase international awareness and assist with the opening of the convention center. With a surge of interest from the international community, Oman is pumping resources into becoming an attractive meeting destination. Already, it has the advantage of location.
Seoul, South Korea is in the midst of a sweeping master plan specifically targeting international meetings. Not only is the South Korean capital safe, easily accessible (12 American cities offer non-stop flights to Seoul) and boasting modern transport infrastructure, but it also is a place where English services are commonplace. With multiple convention developments underway (one of them being Seoul's largest meeting complex yet), Seoul plans to expand its meetings infrastructure by three times by 2020.
Shenzhen, China is a booming port city and a major financial center where numerous high-tech companies are headquartered. With an impressive, centrally located Convention & Exhibition Center, more than 100 start-level hotels, beautiful coastline and various theme parks, Shenzhen has a lot to offer. This city certainly qualifies for this list as it aggressively courts meetings business to this economically evolving part of the world.
Cartagena, Colombia is rich in natural beauty and culture, and it is quickly emerging as a premium meeting destination. The city has increased efforts to show the world that it is a politically stable region with world-class tourist attractions — both natural and cultural. The industry has ramped up its hotel infrastructure as well as its convention facilities (there are two convention centers in Cartagena). Other features that increase the city's appeal as an international meeting destination are its favorable climate, and easy access to the United States, Latin American and Europe.
Not many of us know this, but Panama is the world's second largest Free Trade Zone (which means the country's official currency is the U.S. dollar). On top of this, Panama offers an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax exemption, which allows U.S. companies to deduct expenses for meetings held there. Panama City, Panama is on the cusp of opening the impressive Amador Convention Center with modern amenities and an international draw. It's a beautiful region that until recently has been untapped from a meetings perspective.
Melbourne, Australia, the continent's second-largest city, is no stranger to the international scene. The world's friendliest and most livable city is making a name for itself on the international meetings scene with its world-class convention facilities (Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Center — the largest in the Southern Hemisphere), and growing hotel infrastructure (in 2011 the city had a total of 26,555 hotel rooms available). Melbourne is a globally connected city. Its time zone overlaps that of most Asia-Pacific nations, and Melbourne also is the midpoint between Europe and the United States.
Brisbane, Australia recently enjoyed attention on the international scale when the city hosted the G20 Summit this year in November. However, there is more to this city than that. Brisbane has no less than 230 hotels with more than 12,700 rooms, an award-winning convention center, beautiful year-round weather, an international airport 20 minutes from downtown and unique natural attractions.
