Mike Horgen is a great example of how hard work, perseverance, and a solid education can take the dream of public service and put it into action.
He set out to achieve his goal of a career in government through a Master of Public Administration (MPA) from Capella University. His hard work was recognized when he was selected as a Presidential Management Fellow. Keeping his passion for public service alive, Horgen is now pursuing his dream in Washington, D.C., where he works full-time in the U.S. Department of Treasury.
He shares the story of his path to success.
Q. What was your first job in public administration?
A. I worked for four and a half years within the Federal Veterans Affairs offices in St. Paul, MN, on veterans' disability claims. As a disabled veteran myself, I enjoyed helping vets find and use VA benefits.
Q. What prompted you to explore a career in public administration?
A. I have always felt the desire to work toward meaningful outcomes for the greater good of my fellow Americans. I feel that there is too much divisiveness and not enough effort to help make our society and the world a better place to live. My chosen career in government administration is my way of giving back.
Q. Why did you decide to pursue an MPA through Capella?
A. Education has always been highly respected and admired in my family. My father has a PhD and is a retired superintendent of schools and now a professor at Capella. My mother earned her master's in social work, and my brother has a master's in psychology. It was natural for me to work hard at learning more to allow me to give back more!
Q. What did you find was most valuable during your MPA program?
A. Student interaction and follow-up discussions with people outside my area (regional viewpoints) were extremely valuable in my learning. It made me think about how others approach solutions to problems. The diversity of the student body is definitely a benefit!
Q. Can you tell us a little about your Presidential Management Fellowship? How did your MPA help in this journey?
A. The Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program is a program developed by the federal government as a way to prepare future executives to run and manage government programs. PMF is a 2-year training program and provides robust classroom learning along with mentoring from senior government leaders. The goal is that a PMF will be prepared to enter into a senior leadership role upon completion of his or her training.
The expectation in the program is that you can handle people well and lead them in many different roles within government. One week there is a 2-day program at the White House, the next week we have training at Office of Personnel Management (OPM), and so on. I've been present in small groups of invited governmental professionals listening to the Secretary of Defense at the 9/11 remembrance ceremony, senior brass at the Pentagon, CFO at OPM, etc. They all want you to succeed, help the government do well, and make life better for people, which is what my end goal is, too.
A candidate must have a graduate degree at a minimum to apply for the PMF. Capella's MPA program allowed me to work, raise my kids, and study on nights and weekends so that I could prepare myself to enter the PMF program.
The MPA was a great experience and equipped me with critical thinking methods, quality research tactics, and familiarity with the APA writing style.
Q. What resources do you tap frequently in order to stay updated and relevant in your field?
A. PMF leadership training is continual and set up by different agencies government-wide, so it's essential to keep up on relevant information that can be used across many government divisions. I frequent GovLoop.com and the Washington, D.C. newspapers for information. I also engage other agencies on similar goals so that I don't have to reinvent the wheel each time I think of a possible solution to a current problem.
Q. When you think about the future, what do you image your next steps to be? What is your dream?
A. Ideally, I'd like to drive policy and make things happen for the greater good of my country. If this ends up being within the CIA, Treasury, or Department of Veterans Affairs, I'm fine with any of these options as long as I have a meaningful impact.
Q. What advice would you give to people thinking about getting an MPA?
A. I feel that it's all about taking the first step, saying to yourself, "I really want this." Then, you realize the only way to get from point A to point B is to develop new ideas and skills you can offer future employers. Today, I feel you need the credibility of a master's or doctorate to open the doors to senior or management positions within government.
I hope anyone willing to make the effort to become knowledgeable in his or her field and who has a fire in their belly to make things better takes the next step towards a graduate degree at Capella. They'll be glad they did!
The prestigious Presidential Management Fellows Program seeks eligible graduate students every year who want to make a difference through public service. Five Capella students were selected as finalists for the PMF class of 2015 (300 semi-finalists were chosen from a nationwide applicant pool of 17,000). Finalists are hired by federal agencies to solve domestic or international issues in areas including public administration, engineering, and health.

International Telecommunication Union
Spectrum planning is a multi-faceted activity drawing on the disciplines of engineering, economics and social science. Planning is conducted within an overarching international framework. In most countries, including Pakistan, planning starts at the international level through participation in the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The ITU is a technical arm of the United Nations and maintains the international Radio Regulations, which sets out the allocations of various bands to various types of services.
Pakistan, like many other countries, is a signatory to the ITU Convention. This means that Pakistan has obligations under international law regarding compliance with the Radio Regulations. In essence, Pakistan must not cause interference to the services of other countries where those services operate in accordance with the Regulations conversely, Pakistan services are entitled to protection against interference from other countries only when our services operate in accordance with the Radio Regulations.

This is one of two trip reports that I did not get round to publishing from my time training in Finland. In May 2015, we spent a week on Jungfruskär Island, which is situated in the archipelagos to the south west of Finland. We were here to do some conservation work and study the local flora and fauna. The college has a deal with the Forest and Parks service that allows the class to stay on the island and use the facilities in return for doing some conservation work.
Jungfruskär Island
Jungfruskär is nestled in a labyrinthine of over 8400 islands, more than any other archipelago in the world. The national park includes 2000 islands and rocky islets, shaped by the ice sheet during the ice age and the sea.
When viewing the island from the sea, it looks fairly barren. But, this a small rocky outcrop on the cusp of the boreal zone, boasts and abundance of species and lush herb rich forests. There's a special blend of windswept coniferous and low deciduous forest, injected with a rich mix of herbaceous flora, grasses and shrubs, signifying a more fertile soil than the usual acidic soil of most coniferous forests. The island boasts hundreds of species of trees and plants, 132 breeding bird species and 25 species of mammal.
During World War II, cannons and barracks were placed on Jungfruskär as its military importance increased. The Finnish Defence Forces occupied the island up to 1977. Permanent inhabitants left the island in 1983, and at the turn of the century, the island was brought under the control of Metsähallitus (Forestry Commission).
Our Trip
We took numerous ferries to get to Jungfruskär, with the last boat leaving from Korpoström. We braved gale force winds, rain, and turbulent seas, taking one of the most enjoyable boat rides I've ever been on. The boat was crashing violently up and down, carving its path through the choppy seas. Me and a few others braved the deck and were sprayed continuously by a barrage of foaming waves drenching us to the bone. We were screaming like excited school kids, holding onto to side, onto each other, struggling to stay on two feet.
The wet weather only lasted for the crossing, and the rest of the trip was sunny and warm. As mentioned, we were here to study and to do conservation work for the national park. The ranger, Jean-Erik was perhaps the most steely faced man I have ever encountered, even the Finnish guys were aghast at how unemotional he was. Henkke, our tutor, said he had only seen him smile once.
Each morning we did 2 to 4 hours conservation for Jean-Erik. This generally consisted of meadow clearing, 'tidying' up certain areas of forest and some log splitting. This was done to maintain certain habitats that harbour rare flowering plants. It sometimes felt a bit odd intervening with the natural growth cycle by trimming and removing species such as willow, ash, juniper and birch. However, only small pockets of the island that were conserved in this way, and these 'pockets' formed a habitat that harboured a huge range of wild flowers and orchids that would be not be possible otherwise.
Flora and Fauna
After conservation work we spent an hour or two exploring the island, being skilfully guided by our personal walking encyclopaedia – our tutor Henkke. Clutching an assortment of bird and plant books, with binoculars swinging round our necks, and our trousers tucked into our socks (to protect against tics) we certainly weren't winning any awards for style.
Walking through the coniferous and deciduous woodlands we would pause by certain tree and plant species that we needed to study for the upcoming exams. These walks would be interjected with Henkke suddenly stopping and pausing, like a dog that had just found a scent. We would all stop and listen to the bird song he had picked up, or peer through our binoculars trying to find it in the trees or on the seas. This happened many times, but the most notable occasions were hearing a marsh warbler, and seeing a golden eagle.
The marsh warbler imitates over 70 songs, all learnt in its first year of life. This small migratory bird learns half the songs in Europe, in its first summer and half in Africa, in its first winter. We knew we had spent a long time learning about nature when all of us were so excited to hear and find this little bird in our binoculars.
The golden eagle was something else though. We were walking through a grassy meadow carpeted with wood cranesbills, light dappled through the canopy of grey alder and silver birch above, providing shade from the hot morning sun. Suddenly, about 30 m away a gigantic bird with a wingspan of over 2m took off, rising up through the trees and out of site. Although just a short glimpse, the shear size and beauty of the bird was breathtaking, and the fact that a bird like that settles here was a true reminder of just how rich the biodiversity was on these islands.
After the conservation we would spend some time studying and preparing food, doing tic checks and going in small boat trips to nearby islands. Each evening we would watch the sun melt into the sea from the veranda, whilst swallows would majestically perform their aerial acrobatics all around us.
On one particular night, we saw noctilucent clouds. Noctilucent or 'night shining' clouds are only visible in the short summer nights of latitudes of 50 – 65°, after the sun has set. They are the highest clouds in Earth's atmosphere, located in the mesosphere at altitudes of around 76 to 85 kilometres. They are particularly interesting as they are not fully understood, only being recently discovered meteorological phenomenon; there is no record of their observation before 1885. Some theories believing it is linked to pollution and others to the world wars.
Due to the large number of birds and animals, tics ravaged these lands, and each night we had to perform daily tic checks. For some of the guys, this seemed to be the highlight of their trip, as they effortlessly stepped back into their grooming ways of apes and chimps, proudly standing in front of each other completely starkers, meticulously checking every nook and cranny for little blighters, before carefully removing them. The island was teaming with them, and the record for one day was well over 10!

PoorOct 20162.0
It was walking distance to Trinity College, Temple Bar and many of the sites in Dublin.
This place was disgusting! The room was dirty, the bathroom smelled moldy and the carpet was so nasty, we were afraid to walk on it without shoes. Additionally, we almost got stuck in the lift because it was broken, but no one bothered to put up a sign! We were there for 3 days, and it was broken the entire time we stayed there. We never saw any maintenance people even attempting to repair it. This place was not family friendly as indicated!!

Making Mortise Chisel Handles
Copyright © 2001, 2002 by Jim Wilson
(Click images to enlarge)
I turn many of my mortise chisel handles from ash, which is an excellent wood for them. I also make them in walnut, purpleheart, maple, cherry and several other species. See this page for a complete list of available woods.
These stout handles are seven inches overall in length, with 3/4" long shoulders for the ferrules. The ends are turned to a press fit in the ferrules. A stepped hole is bored for the tang, but you could get away with a simple 1/4"-3/8" hole (7/16"-1/2" for the larger 3/4" and 1" chisels).
This is my favorite profile, which I found by trial and error. I tried about a dozen different variations, until one felt just perfect in my hand. It is about 1-3/4" at the thickest point and 1-1/4" at the narrowest. The handle for the 1" mortise chisel I make is even beefier, about 1.9" thick down to 1.5".
The rest of this page outlines my process for creating these handles. I encourage you to try it. They are not hard to make, and it is especially rewarding to use a fine tool when you have had a part in making it.
|Cut 12/4 or 8/4 stock to length, bandsaw it into 16" lathe blanks, and mark centers.
|Rough the blanks to round in the lathe.
|Turn the handle profiles (two to a blank) and sand them smooth.
|Cut the handles to length (a little crosscut sled that the ferrule necks rest on makes this easy).
|Chuck the handle in lathe, turn ferrule necks to size, and bore the tang hole. Turn the necks at the ends of the handle a couple thousandths of an inch larger than the inner diameter of the ferrules. I do this step on a metalworking lathe.
|Cut the ferrule blanks and de-burr. The ferrules are made from alloy 330 brass tube, 0.065" wall thickness, available from the big supply houses, like MSC or McMaster-Carr. Some places call it pipe or tubing instead of tube, and the material might simply be called "yellow brass."
The top ferrule is made from 1-1/2" OD tube; the bottom is 1-1/4". On 1" chisel handles, I use 1-1/2" ferrules top and bottom.
I made some simple expansion chucks of ash to hold the various sizes of tubing. The pin in the foreground is tapered. Tap it into the center hole of the chuck to lock the ferrule blank in place. These expansion chucks are held in a 3-jaw chuck mounted on the lathe. The marks on the chucks match the numbers I have stamped at the jaws of the 3-jaw chuck, so they always get mounted in the correct orientation.
|Chuck the ferrule into the lathe, face the end, and slightly chamfer the outside edge. Cut a shallow taper inside; this helps during assembly.
|Flip the ferrule, face the other end, chamfer inside, bevel outside.
|File smooth and sand for satin finish. I use 3M abrasive pads instead of sandpaper.
The necks on the ends of the handle are just slightly larger than the inner diameter of the ferrules (about 0.001-0.003" oversize). The shallow taper on the inside of the unchamfered end of the ferrule allows it to fit over the end of the handle, so that it may be driven to the shoulder with a mallet.
Insert the handle into the ferrule and, with the ferrule resting on a hardwood block, strike the other end of the handle with the mallet. The top neck may be 1/16" to 1/8" longer than the top ferrule. To fully seat the ferrule, use a hole in the hardwood block, bored a little larger than the ferrule's inner diameter, but smaller than its outer diameter. The ferrule's chamfer will center the work in the hole, and the ferrule may be driven all the way to the shoulder.
I vacuum seal the handles with an oil modified polyurethane designed for hardwood flooring, thinned about 1:1 with oderless mineral spirits. It is resistant to alcohol, water, sunlight and abrasion. To seal the handles, I submerge them in the finish inside an airtight chamber and draw a vacuum, which removes the air and some of the moisture from the wood and replaces it with the finish. This gives a very deep penetrating finish that will withstand a lifetime of heavy use.
Just about any decent finish will do -- shellac or an oil-varnish blend, whatever you like. You don't have to vacuum seal them. Commercially made tool handles are often simply sprayed with a coat or two of clear lacquer.
As is often the case, much of this process arose via trial and error. I owe a special thanks to Jim Thompson for sharing his invaluable experience and sage advice when I first started making these chisel handles, and to Steve Knight for providing the inspiration to begin making them.

There are no reviews so far
Description: Gulfstream GV, which was introduced in 1997, is the successor to GIV and GIV-SP family of business jet introduced by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation in 1985 and 1993 respectively. Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics. Twin-engine Gulfstream V was conceived to serve as an ultra-long-range business jet featuring the most sophisticated technology. In 2000 Gulfstream announced a further version with extended range called GV-SP which entered service in 2003 under G550 designation. G500 aircraft was introduced in 2004 as the follow-on to GV aircraft.
In 2001 Galaxy Aerospace Company was acquired by General Dynamics which added Galaxy Aerospace's Galaxy and Astra SPX business jets to the Gulfstream portfolio. Galaxy was re-designated as G200 and Astra SPX as G100. In 2002 Gulfstream launched G150 business jet to fill the gap between G100 and G200 capabilities. In 2003 Gulfstream announced that it was upgrading G300 and G400 business jets developed under GIV by adding technologies developed for GV and a new cockpit. The upgraded aircraft were re-designated G350 and G450 entering into service during 2005.
As of March 2008, Gulfstream GV family consists of eight models available at the production line with a common high speed performance and differences in terms of cabin and aircraft range. G100 offers mid-cabin; G150 wide-cabin; G200 and G350 large-cabin and mid-range; G450 large-cabin and long-range; G500 and G550 large-cabin and ultra-long-range; and G650 ultra large cabin and ultra long range corporate jet. They can cover routes ranging from 2,700 to more than 7,000 nautical miles, cruising at speeds between 0.75 and 0.9 Mach, and carrying between four and up to 18 passengers.
The Gulfstream G650 ultra-large cabin and ultra long range corporate jet was launched in March 2008 as the fastest member with the most advanced cockpit in the Gulfstream fleet. The new aircraft is expected to perform its maiden flight in the second half of 2009, be awarded FAA and EASA Type Certification in 2011 and enter into service in 2012. The G650 jet is capable of traveling 7,000 nautical miles at 0.85 Mach or 5,000 nautical miles at 0.90 Mach. Powered by two Rolls-Royce BR725 engines each rated at 16,100-lb at takeoff, it has a top speed of 0.925 Mach and a 51,000-ft ceiling to avoid adverse weather and airline-traffic congestion.
The G650 corporate jet will feature an enhanced cabin environment thanks to an spacious cabin allowing up to three to seat across with 16 28x20.5-in cabin windows and providing a cabin altitude of 4,850 feet at FL510 and 2,800 feet at FL410. Two Rolls-Royce BR725 engines along with the G650s advanced aerodynamics provide a maximum speed of Mach 0.925 and a maximum range of 7,000 nautical miles. The G650 is equipped with the advanced PlaneView II cockpit highlighting: four 14-inch LCDs; three PlaneBook computer tablets; and a fully automatic, three-dimensional scanning weather radar with an integral terrain database for efficient ground-clutter elimination.

NN Group received this year's FD Henri Sijthoff Award for best financial reporting in the 'small and mid-cap' category. This was announced by the leading Dutch financial daily 'Het Financieele Dagblad' on 29 October 2015. NN Group has been included in the Euronext AEX Index since 23 March 2015.
The 2014 Annual Report was NN Group's first annual report as a listed company. A 'combined approach' was chosen, consisting of an Annual Review, a Financial Report and a Sustainability Report, tailored to different stakeholder groups. The report provides extensive information on NN Group's strategy, financial performance and sustainability approach.
The FD Henri Sijthoff jury commended the NN Group Annual Report for its clear explanation of trends and risks affecting the company, its fresh integrated approach and inclusion of financial as well as non-financial targets.
Lard Friese, CEO NN Group: 'We are honoured to win this award for our first annual report as a stand-alone company. It motivates us to further develop the quality of our reporting in the areas of transparency, financial and non-financial information. This is what we aim for: to further improve and innovate our businesses - for our customers, shareholders, employees and society at large.'
About the award
The FD Henri Sijthoff Award is an initiative of 'Het Financieele Dagblad', with the objective of contributing to improved financial reporting by the Dutch business community. The award was initiated in 1954 by the newspaper's owner and director at the time, Henri Sijthoff. In 1964, Nationale-Nederlanden won the award for the first time.

Capital City x Kitchen 24.
1st time to Capitol City on Cahuenga for bday party last Friday, and had a blast! I think by day it's a sports bar, but at night its more of a lounge. Yelpers gave it some horrible reviews, but the place seemed pretty cool to me. It probably depends on the night. Afterwards, JP and walked across the street to get some quick eats at Kitchen 24. It's open 24 hrs, hence the name, Kitchen 24.
Really good food, not your typical Denny's food fare. There's a full bar and even a DJ spinning some good music. I was there about 1am, and there was a line out the door. Great place to kick it after a night out.

We have previously discussed why leaving your estate to your children in equal shares isn't always fair. In fact, it could destroy the value of the assets you leave and ruin family relationships. So what solutions do you have to be fair and preserve family harmony?
Gifting to Preserve Family Harmony
Solutions to Common Life Insurance Mistakes
Previously, we talked about common mistakes when naming beneficiaries for your life insurance policy. These mistakes included naming beneficiaries who are minors, incapacitated, receiving government benefits, spendthrifts, or high-risk.
Common Life Insurance Mistakes
Life insurance is one of the largest assets in a person's estate, so who you designate as the beneficiary of the policy is a major decision (especially since this designation controls over what your will or trust say).

-Right in the midst of the Interpromotional Era comes this show- a JWP event with almost every match featuring an AJW invader, capped off by an Ace (vs) Ace bout- Dynamite Kansasi fighting the WWWA Champion, Aja Kong! Also wrestling is Kyoko Inoue against an up & comer, the legendary Chigusa Nagayo (on her JWP run to regather her strength) against Mayumi Ozaki, and an Idol (vs) Idol match- Takako Inoue & Cutie Suzuki! This is thus JWP's biggest show ever up until this point, with major stars all over the place and a great Main Event. Weirdly, there's no commentary at all for this show, giving it an odd feel… provided you notice it (I was 3/4 the way through Takako/Cutie before I realized "Hey, nobody's talking here").
"TL;DR- Why Should I Watch This?": Standard-issue Joshi excellence, in that four matches hit around ****, and some rare "Dream Matches" you'll literally never see again. The stars of yesterday versus the stars of tomorrow is particularly excellent.

Rikers Island inmates helped rescue a female prison guard before she was raped by a convicted sex criminal on Saturday, according to a report by the New York Daily News.
The inmates helped responding correction officers frantically tear away Plexiglas on the outside of the bubble-like watch post inside the Anna M. Kross Center at 8:15 p.m., according to multiple sources.
A skinny inmate slipped inside the so-called "A station" bubble through the small crack and opened the security door. A team of inmates then took down the assailant, Raleek Young, 27, until other officers arrived.
Young pulled down his pants and started choking the guard while he masturbated, court documents said.
The 290 pound inmate is serving a 5-to-10-year sentence for raping a 13-year-old.
Multiple sources told the Daily News that Young entered the watch post after he claimed he needed to get a mattress in another room and had to go through the post to get it.
Correction Officers Benevolent Association President Norman Seabrook confirmed the attack took place and that prisoners helped stop it.
Last week, Rikers was the site of a massive brawl involving 14 inmates. Seven corrections officers were injured breaking up the fight.
Last year, the Department of Justice released a scathing report detailing the "culture of violence" and corruption that teenage inmates at Rikers must endure.

Summer is rapidly approaching for many parts of the world and for some people that means one thing: Time for outdoor nudity! Now that the harsh, frigid winter air is gone and the warmth of the sun is gaining in power, it's much easier to let it all hang out in the great outdoors. However, men need to be aware that sometimes an itchy penis may result from going freestyle. That's why it's important to make penis care a priority when taking a stroll through the woods or on the beach with the privates exposed.
A grand tradition
Nudism - or naturism, as practitioners prefer it to be called - is increasing in popularity. While many people practice nudism on a regular basis, both at home and at organized social events in designated area, many others are more "casual" nudists. The former are likely to spend all their summer weekends at a clothing-optional beach; the latter tend to drop in a couple of times a summer, more for the titillation than for the freedom to express their preferred lifestyle.
But whether a casual or a dedicated nudist, a man letting his tool run free needs to take special care to avoid an itchy penis - or worse. Among the things to remember are:
- Use the sunscreen. Penis skin is more sensitive than skin on other parts of the body; it is particularly sensitive to sunlight after it has been kept hidden snugly behind two layers of clothing for several months. It's always important to use plenty of sunscreen, but especially during the first few times when the manhood is being exposed to sunshine. A sunburned penis is not only a sore and itchy penis, it's a penis that is not going to enjoy any sexual escapades until it has healed.
- Watch the leaves. Everyone knows to avoid poison ivy, as well as its cousins, poison oak and poison sumac. This is especially true of the penis, which reacts very poorly to contact with these plants. However, it's also a good idea to avoid most plant-to-penis contact. Ragweed, pollenated plants and many other forms of vegetation carry substances that, while possibly harmless to normal skin, can raise a rash on the male member. If one does find occasion to romp through tall grasses or to brush one's member against vines, tress and the like, it's a good idea to wash the member as soon as possible.
- Avoid mosquitos. Those pesky mosquitos can be particularly challenging for a male nudist. Most insect repellants have strong ingredients that make them inadvisable for use on the rod. Avoid areas that have likely mosquito populations; an itchy penis is bound to result otherwise.
- Check for ticks. Lack of repellant also makes a nudist a bit more vulnerable to attacks from the tick population. It's essential that a person check all over - including the penis, testicles and anal region - for ticks when going nude. Because ticks are carriers of Lyme disease, removing them promptly is crucial.
- Don't bug the bugs. Being stung by a hornet, wasp or bee is undesirable in the best of circumstances; it is excruciating when one is stung on the male equipment.
Exploring Nature while naked can be an exciting and enjoyable experience. If one does acquire an unfortunately itchy penis as a result, remember to make use of a first-rate penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). In addition to simply maintaining the overall health of the manhood, a good crème will contain potent moisturizing elements, such as Shea butter and vitamin E, and a powerful antioxidant (like alpha lipoic acid) that together can neutralize many itch-inducing substances. Those same moisturizers can also help to heal the skin damaged by too much exposure to the sun. In addition, a crème that contains vitamin B5 can prove invaluable in aiding with penis cell metabolism and the subsequent healthy maintenance of all penile cells - even those that have taken in a little too much Nature at one time.

Polish President Andrzej Duda on Friday presented plans for a non-binding vote on a new constitution to address issues ranging from giving the president greater powers to the supremacy of Polish laws over EU ones. The right-wing head of state had 10 questions for the proposed November 10-11 referendum, including whether a new constitution should replace the current one adopted in 1997 after Poland peacefully shed communism. Other issues include if the supremacy of Polish law over EU law should be enshrined and whether the preamble should refer to Poland's…Read More

UNHCR welcomes EU's deal on Mediterranean migrants' stand-off
The UN High Commissioner for Refugee (UNHCR), Filippo Grandi, has given a cautious welcome to the decision by several EU countries to take in some 450 migrants who have been stranded at Mediterranean Sea for days. The UN refugee agency chief, however, warned that a "ship-by-ship" arrangement was not sustainable, according to the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN. The development came after the Governments of France, Germany, Italy, Malta, Spain and Portugal ended a disembarkation stand-off involving the migrants, who had set out from the Libya coast, by agreeing…Read More
Chris Okotie as God's political missionary
The pastor of the Household of God International Ministries, Reverend Chris Okotie, has asked the 68 political parties, especially the two major ones, to roll over and adopt him as their consensus candidate in next year's presidential election. It is not a joke or a suggestion. It is a divine instruction, which the parties will do well to accept "within the confines of conventional propriety," to quote Okotie. When a man – and not just any man but a reverend gentleman – says God says, you cannot ask for proof.…Read More

A World without walls
everyday life while homeschooling overseas
I admit it, sometimes I let the kids eat in the car. If we're going on long-ish trips, they can eat snacks as long as they throw the trash into trash bags.
The other day, I went out to clean out the trash bags from the car, and I found a ziplock bag with a few plum pits in it. Inside the bag were 2 (ONLY 2) fruit flies. I quickly zipped it closed and thought, "This will make a cool experiment!"
I wrote up this little paper--how fast do fruit flies multiply? and then pinned the bag to the cork board to await the results.
Whoa. It was definitely cooler than any experiment that I've had planned before! Just goes to show that serendipity is by far one of the best teachers! :)
In 2 weeks, we went from the proud owners of 2 fruit flies to well over 200! And watching them grow and multiply was OH SO GROSS! A cool boy experiment. Still makes me shiver. But now, all my kids know exactly what the life cycle of a fruit fly looks like. Sweet.
12/18/2012 02:09:08 am
That is crazy! What an awesome experiment. I would never have thought of that. Bet the kids thought it was awesome. :)

How lucky you had a male and a female fruit fly! : )

Emily's books
by Dan Brown
I like that the plot twists and turns a lot...and it makes you think. However, I don't appreciate Dan Brown's endings in his books. I find the endings incongruent with the rest of his stories--why make it a romance for the last chapter...
I loved this book. I'm a sucker for fairy tales/fantasy. This was so well written! I can't wait to read all the rest of her books!
I'm reading this one again. I liked it the first time I read it. I'm still liking it for the second time around. I like all of Shannon Hales' books. **Still lots of fun the second time around! I do like this book for a comfortable...

How cute. Too bad it's not in english yet.
You were saying?
I just might get this ^_^What difference does each union make? Cosmetic(looks, or a minor variation on a quest), or does it actually affect gameplay notably(drops, shops, enemies). If it's cosmetic, or mostly minor gameplay changes, I'm fine with anything.Anyone notice the Legend of Zelda Triforce related things for the Unions, and their leaders? Link wears Green and has Courage, BRD has Lios who is Green and is for Courage. Ganon/Ganondorf and the DOS leader are both notably Red and are for Power, and WIZ Leader is mostly Pink and is for Wisdom, like Zelda.Either I looking into it too deeply, or this is a LoZ reference. :V if it's a ref, I like it If not, it's kinda funny how it worked out.
But under all the cuteness, there is a really serious story.
But enough of that. Unions don't effect gameplay at all, aside from the fact that Rie Tanaka yells at you when you lose a Union Wars match as a WIZ member.
The story's not that serious unless you're talking about Ivis or such.Also, when you're playing, do not be a dumbass and make shield wofl. As viable as it is, people will push you into rivers and shoot you until you explode just because of how annoying you are for using it.
I'm really against going WIZ considering most of the shit players are in WIZ.
Most of the CB girls are -way- too chesty to be called loli, dude. >_>
Big-breasted lolis.
Die plz.
You two, please shut up and tell me what robots I missed since the Ivis update in the first open beta.Thanks!

The heart is one of the hardest working muscles in the human body. It works 24 hours a day without tiring or stopping. This ensures that all parts of the body constantly get adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients through the blood. If the heart does not work properly, it will have serious health implications. Therefore, maintaining a healthy heart is important, if you want to avoid diseases like heart failure or heart attack. There are some supplements that are considered good for the heart. By taking these supplements regularly, you can improve and maintain the health of your heart.
Coenzyme Q10 is a compound that is important for the cells. It helps the body to get energy, facilitates contraction of muscles and supports production of protein. It is believed that Coenzyme Q10 can be beneficial for the heart and prevent heart ailments, as it helps in production of energy, preventing clotting of blood and working as an antioxidant. Research has proven that people who take this compound as a supplement are less likely to suffer from another heart attack or pain in the chest in future, and their chances of dying due to a heart disease reduces compared to people who do not take the supplement, as per the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Carnitine helps in the conversion of fat into energy. Research has shown that carnitine helps to reduce symptoms of heart failure and also improves the ability to do exercise in people who have heart failure.
Creatine is naturally present in the muscles of the body. This compound is also found in fish and meat. MedlinePlus states that creatine can enhance strength and endurance in people suffering from heart failure. However, there is a risk of arrhythmia when this compound is taken as a heart supplement. Also, those with diabetes or kidney problems should not take creatine, as it could exacerbate their health problem.
Omega 3 essential fatty acids are important for development and working of the brain and overall growth of the body. Fish oil contains EPA and DHA, which are two types of Omega 3 essential fatty acids. As per research these can reduce the chances of heart disease. In addition, research also shows that by taking fish oil supplements regularly, a person with heart problems can reduce the possibility of arrhythmia and heart attack. Other sources of Omega 3 essential fatty acids include walnuts, flaxseed oil and flax seed.
Before taking any supplement to improve your heart health, make sure that you first consult your doctor.

The federal appeals court in Atlanta has dismissed a lawsuit that accused Fulton District Attorney Paul Howard of conspiring against the First Amendment rights of the former head of Atlanta's crime lab.
In June 2013, Donald Mikko was fired as the Atlanta Police Department's crime lab
director after just over a year on the job. Mikko was let go after prosecutors and police learned he'd agreed to testify as a private consultant on behalf of a criminal defendant in a case in Florida.
In his lawsuit, Mikko said his work in the Florida case exposed "malfeasance" by police and prosecutors in the mishandling of evidence.
But Howard had expressed unease with Mikko's arrangement, saying it did not look good for Atlanta police, especially its crime lab director, to testify against the prosecution or against law enforcement, according to the lawsuit's allegations.
Mikko filed a number of claims in his suit against Howard, one of his former top prosecutors and former Chief of Police George Turner. The claim addressed Friday by the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals accused Howard and his former top assistant of unlawfully retaliating against Mikko to prevent him from testifying, in violation of his First Amendment rights. (Atlanta police were not a party in the appeal.)
The court's ruling, written by Chief Judge Ed Carnes, said the prosecutors were immune from suit under the doctrine of qualified immunity. Under this legal principle, government officials may not be held liable if there was no clearly established law at the time that said their conduct violated a constitutional right.
"Mikko has not cited, nor have we found, any binding decision ... that clearly establishes that what the prosecutors did in this case violated the First Amendment," Carnes wrote for a unanimous three-judge panel.

Amid widespread agonizing within the IOC over how to handle its biggest doping scandal Josh Sitton Jersey , the final verdict could come less than 10 days from the Rio opening ceremony on August 5.
The IOC executive decided Tuesday to wait until after a Court of Arbitration in Sport (CAS) ruling expected Thursday before deciding whether a blanket Olympic ban on Russian competitors should be imposed.

The IOC has already banned -Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko and all -other ministry officials from the Rio Games and withdrawn backing for international events in Russia over the doping program revealed by Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren this week.
McLaren, who produced a report for the World Anti-Doping Agency, said there was a "state-dictated failsafe system" of drug cheating. IOC president Thomas Bach called Russia's actions a "shocking and unprecedented attack on the integrity of sport and on the Olympic Games."
WADA has called for Russia to be banned and are believed to have -backing from the United States Albert Wilson Jersey , Canada, -Germany, Japan and other nations.
Russia's Olympic Committee pressed on Wednesday with its preparations for the Rio Olympic Games despite all the uncertainty.
At a meeting in Moscow the executive board approved a 387-strong team - including star names like pole--vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva Frank Gore Jersey , hurdler -Sergei Shubenkov and tennis player Svetlana Kuznetsova - to compete at this -summer's Games.
Committee chief Alexander -Zhukov insisted that Russian sportsmen were still "capable of competing for -medals" at the event in Rio and said they
were training in Russia, Portugal and Brazil.

Domain Names for Sale By Providers – How You Can Save Time and Money
You have just put the finishing touches on the design of your website. You want to publish it as soon as possible but you have one problem. You are wracking your brain over the appropriate domain name to use. Deliberating on the name is not an unwise strategy. Why would you want to rush into making a decision on selecting domain names when you do need to be sure that the domain name you pick is appropriate? For those that have been unable to come up with a proper name for their website, there is an option open. It could be worth the effort to look at those domain names which are offered for sale through reliable and reputable providers.
Among the most obvious benefits to purchasing domains would be the fact you can browse a large selection of available names and pick the one that serves your needs the best. If the name is for sale, it is only available to those willing to purchase it. As such, it can still be considered a "taken" website name. If the name is already registered then you cannot use it unless you purchase it from a provider. This could exclude you from acquiring the perfect website name for your needs. However, if the price is a fair and reasonable one there is no reason why you should not take advantage of its availability and make a purchase.
How much should you be willing to spend on domains for sale? Truthfully, only you can answer that question. When the name of the site is something that you positively must have because it is perfect for your business then there is really no reason why you should not consider paying a premium price for it. There is one thing you can take solace in – you might not have to pay a premium price for it at all.
Certain providers offering domains for sale might even put the domain names up for bidding. This could prove to be a great way to acquire a deal if few people opt to bid on it. Then again, even if a number of bids are provided the possibility of acquiring a domain name at a fair price is possible.
And who is to say the perfect domain name for your needs won't be offered at a "rock bottom" price? You really never know. You might just get very lucky and acquire the perfect domain name for a price far less than you ever thought it would cost you.
No matter what you pay for the domains, you can take solace in the fact you did not need to invest a tremendous amount of time trying to come up with a unique domain name. Better yet, you can also feel positive about the fact you did not have to settle for a less than decent domain name because the one you wanted is taken.
Once you weigh all these attributes, you quickly realize that the availability of domains for sale by providers makes your online ventures much easier.
