"No You Don't Mr. Pope!"
Let's play a little game of "Guess Who Said It"--no Googling.
Tough one, right? It could be any number of politicians or pundits (*cough* Trump *cough*).
OK, it's a trick question.
I did some creative editing and swapped out "Catholic/Catholicism" for "Muslim/Islam." It's actually a line from Paul Blanshard's 1949 best-selling book, American Freedom and Catholic Power.
The book argued, quite simply, that American democracy and Catholicism were fundamentally at odds--the two could not coexist in harmony. Tolerance, smolerance. Blanshard saw in the Catholic hierarchy a political force bent on undoing the founding principles of American democracy.
Blanshard's book was well-received by his intellectual kin, the leading liberal thinkers of the time. None other than John Dewey commended Blanshard's "exemplary scholarship, good judgment, and tact." The book also gained him notice from a group called, Protestants and Other Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. At this point, the phrase "separation of church and state" was shorthand for "no pubic money to Catholics." Anyway, they brought Blanshard on as their "special counsel."
By 1960, Mr. "Positive Thinking" Norman Vincent Peale deployed Blanshardian rhetoric when he thundered, "It is inconceivable that a Roman Catholic President would not be under extreme pressure by the hierarchy of his church to accede to its policies with respect to foreign relations, including representation to the Vatican."
Who was he talking about? John F. Kennedy, of course. He was running for president. And that worried some people.
Kennedy would respond to this brand of criticism in his address to the Ministerial Association in Houston. "I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute," he assured, "where no Catholic prelate would tell the President how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote." To prepare for the speech, Kennedy read Blanshard's book.
But American Freedom and Catholic Power was on its way to irrelevance by this point. Instead, John Courtney Murray's, We Hold These Truths was emerging as the new standard. Published in 1960, the Jesuit proposed that the very idea of American liberty as articulated by Thomas Jefferson and his ilk had distinctly Catholic roots--namely, in the natural law theology of Thomas Aquinas.
So what happened next? JFK won, Vatican II led to a rethinking of democracy, and Catholics like Dorothy Day and Thomas Merton became celebrities.
Catholics, in other words, were more and more integrated into the mainstream, and less and less foreign to American political structures. Skip ahead to today and we find a Catholic occupying the VP slot on both presidential tickets. No one raises an eyebrow.
But if we had a Muslim candidate? Eyebrows would raise.
There is an argument to be made Islam is the new Catholicism. The comparison is imperfect, to be sure. But the rhetorical tactic of discrediting not just acts of violence, but rather, an entire global religious community is a consistent theme.
It is heartening, therefore, to see Pope Francis addressing this issue with his trademark qualities of balance, intelligence, and compassion. "I do not believe that it is true or right that Islam is terrorist," he remarked on a return flight from his trip to Poland. "Terrorism," he elaborated, "grows when there are no other options and when the center of the global economy is the god of money and not the person."
So there you have it. Catholics get it, right?
In the wake of Pope Francis's remarks, one American cardinal--who is no fan of the pope--went in the opposite direction.
"That simply is not objectively the case," he said. Burke, who was once archbishop of St. Louis, stressed that he did not want to be "disrespectful" of Islam or "generate hostility." But he said he worries that many people do not understand that, in his view, "when they (Muslims) become the majority in any country they have the duty to submit the whole population to Shariah," as the Islamic code of law is known.
OK, let's try this: Swap out "Islam" for "Catholic." Sounds familiar, right?
It goes without saying that much has changed since the 1940s. Catholics have mainstreamed to the point where their voices are indistinguishable from any other liberal or conservative voices. What if Joe Biden were a Presbyterian? Or Jeb Bush a Baptist? Would it make a difference? I doubt it.
It makes me wonder about the reality of the "Catholic vote." Is this category truly a controlling factor in Catholic voting patterns? Or do "Catholic" allegiances simply fall in line with whatever political ideology they favor? Is region, income, race, or gender a better indicator of one's political leanings?
I'm sure that someone smarter than me can answer that.
But one thing is for sure: Catholics have changed the face of America. And America has changed Catholicism too, by, among other things, giving some among them a very short memory.

BP to cull 4000
THE continued purge foreseen by the UK's peak industry body has hit with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer, with BP announcing it will cut 4000 jobs globally, including 600 from its North Sea operations.
Feature > Human-resources
Anthony Barich
After BP announced the purge, which will occur over two years, the Aberdeen City Council's Councillor Jenny Laing said her local government was working to help "anchor" the city's oil and gas supply chain.
While Laing called BP's move "disappointing", she was comforted somewhat by BP's voiced renewed commitment to investing long-term in the North Sea, even as Morgan Stanley this week said that a rapid appreciation of the US dollar could send Brent oil to $US20/barrel.
BP's North Sea head count cull amounts to a 20% reduction, with the UK super-major attributed to "toughening market conditions".
"We want to simplify structure and reduce costs without compromising safety," a company spokesman said.
"Globally, we expect the headcount in upstream to be below 20,000 by the end of the year.
The job losses amount to around 5% of BP's total global workforce of 80,000. It currently employs about 3000 in the UK.
Oil & Gas UK CEO Deirdre Michie said only last week that while 2015 production from the UK North Sea recorded its biggest production lift in over 15 years, "we will continue to see job losses as we move into 2016".
"As a council, we are working closely with the UK and Scottish governments, our colleagues in Aberdeenshire Council and the private sector towards securing a City Region Deal for the north-east," Laing said.
"We believe that can help to anchor the oil and gas supply chain here in the Aberdeen area for decades to come while diversifying the local economy into emerging sectors including renewables, tourism, food and drink and life sciences."
The news comes as troubled Brazilian oiler Petrobras announced it would cut investment by $US32 billion - 25% - over the next four years, which will be its third cut in six months.
All this came after some good news, as contractors earlier this week accepted improvements in terms and conditions from the Offshore Contractors Association.
While OCA has not commented publicly, Unite, the UK's biggest offshore trade union, announced this week that it had accepted the improvements but repeated its call for the industry to end its year-long imposition of cuts.
The union said the agreement ended a prolonged dispute which previously saw workers reject efforts by some OCA employers to impose cuts to jobs, terms and conditions without consultation following the slump in oil price.
Unite regional officer Tommy Campbell said the conciliation demonstrated that, "even in times of crisis the most effective way forward is for the industry to work with trade unions through proper consultation channels under a collective agreement".
"What our oil and gas sector urgently requires now is a genuine co-operation between government, industry and the offshore trade unions to respond to this on-going crisis, alleviating the pressure on the industry while protecting employment rights," Campbell added.
"This is the only way we can begin to build a safe and sustained recovery for the UK offshore sector."
The news came after Aberdeenshire politician Dennis Robertson copped criticism after claiming there was "no crisis" in the North Sea's oil jobs scene, saying instead the workforce was "booming".
Oil and Gas UK has estimated that some 65,000 jobs have been lost during the current oil price downturn.
Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale called Robertson's comments "astonishing".
Also last week, Norwegian Energy Company (Noreco) was forced to exit the North Sea's Huntington field after its licence partners E.ON UK E&P and Premier Oil said they would exercise their rights to acquire its participating interest for no consideration.
This came after Noreco was served a default in November after failing to attract a buyer for its 20% stake in the field, located 200km east of Aberdeen.

Despite Thursday's 89-77 loss to arch-rival Bethune-Cookman, the FAMU men's basketball team ended the regular season on a strong note — winning three of its final four games going into this week's MEAC Tournament.
The Rattlers (8-24, 7-9 in MEAC) will take on Howard (10-22, 7-9) at 4 p.m. Tuesday in their first game at the tournament, with an outside shot at the NCAA Tournament on the line.
While it was a roller coaster regular season, leaning more towards the "L" column than the "W," it forced the players to have a roller coaster of emotions to match.
Junior guard Justin Ravenel weighed in on the importance of the South Carolina State win on Monday.
The 76-74 victory helped the Rattlers to separate from a four-way tie in the MEAC. Their win benefitted them in terms of rank within the conference. FAMU's 7-9 finish put in a three-way tie for seventh in the final standings.
"(Monday's) win was very important in terms of seeding. We were in a four-way tie with Morgan State, South Carolina State, Howard and Coppin," said Nick Severado, the junior forward from Savannah, GA.
The team's morale exhibited only positivity when it came to feelings about the remainder of the season.
"I feel really confident moving forward. We've been excited to get out there and fight for wins and that's what you look forward to continue doing. I am very optimistic about the rest of the season," said Ravenel.
Rattler fans shared some of the same optimism about the remainder of the season.
Jakelvis Lockhart, a frequent game-goer, shared his thoughts on the Rattlers' prospects.


In January, The Art Alliance Gallery Downtown held an opening reception for "Escape." The show featured the innovation and design of Gilson Snowboards of New Media, PA; the creative design and outdoor gear by Philipsburg-based Organic Climbing; climbing holds by Lemont maker Jim Bowers; outdoor photography by Helena Kotala and Daniel Gajda; mountain bike designs from Freeze Thaw; and paintings by area artist Jim Klotz. The show was sponsored by Tussey Mountain. Photos courtesy art alliance gallery downtown.

Zayn and emerging singer/songwriter sensation Zhavia Ward have released their new version Oscar and Grammy-winning duet 'A Whole New World.' The song will be featured in the film's end credits and on the Walt Disney Records' Aladdin soundtrack, and out now as a single.
The new updated rendition of the classic song has been produced by Saltwives aka Alex Oriet and David Phelan (Zayn and Charli XCX) and the music video was directed by Philip Andelman (Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran). You can hear the song and watch the video below.
"The selection of artists, producer and tonal direction was critical for the success of updating a classic song like this," said Mitchell Leib, president of Music & Soundtracks for the Walt Disney Studios.
"Zayn's vocals are like no other and his artistic imprint immediately brought a contemporary and diverse presence. Additionally, Zayn could have chosen any artist in the world to collaborate with on the duet, but he personally selected Zhavia Ward for her unique perspective, powerful vocal abilities and to platform a talented new artist, ensuring that the audience could discover this song, again, for the first time."
The timeless 'A Whole New World', featuring Alan Menken's melody and Howard Ashman's lyrics, received an Academy Award, Golden Globe Award and Grammy Award, among other accolades, upon Aladdin's initial release in 1992.
Walt Disney Records will release the official soundtrack album for the live-action remake of Disney's Aladdin on 10 May. Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Enchanted) has also composed the original score for the new film, which also features the songs from the 1992 animated classic written by Menken and featuring lyrics by Howard Ashman & Tim Rice, as well as new songs written by Menken and featuring lyrics by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul (The Greatest Showman, La La Land).
Aladdin is directed by Guy Ritchie and stars Will Smith, Mena Massoud, Naomi Scott, Marwan Kenzari, Navid Negahban, Nasim Pedrad, Billy Magnussen and Numan Acar. The movie will be released in North American theaters on 24 May.

H.R.611 - Sex Trafficking Demand Reduction Act114th Congress (2015-2016)
Rep. Hultgren, Randy [R-IL-14] (Introduced 01/28/2015)
House - Foreign Affairs
House - 02/11/2015 Referred to the Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights and International Organizations. (All Actions)
Sex Trafficking Demand Reduction Act
Amends the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 to declare that, in determining whether a government has made serious and sustained efforts to reduce the demand for commercial sex acts and participation in international sex tourism by its nationals, pursuant to the minimum standards for the elimination of sex trafficking, if such government has the authority to prohibit the purchase of commercial sex acts but fails to do so, it shall be deemed a failure to make serious and sustained efforts to reduce the demand for commercial sex acts, notwithstanding other efforts the government has made to do so.


The Japan Booster Tomica Limited Vintage Damaged Box Holiday Sale starts Friday at 5pm PST, and it is better than ever.
The Holiday/Damaged Box Sale is the ONLY sale Japan Booster does each year, and it starts this Friday at 5pm PST. That means Tomica Limited Vintage, Kyosho, Tomica/Tomica Premium and everything else in the store is on sale at 3%-20% off. That in and of itself is significant.
But it is the Tomica Limited Vintage Damaged Box Sale that you REALLY need to pay attention to. Whenever Japan Booster gets a new shipment of Tomica Limited Vintage in, they put any boxes that are damaged in even the slightest way aside. The models are still mint. For so many buyers, especially in Japan, box condition is just as important as model condition, so Japan Booster separates them. And once a year, they put those damaged box models on sale, for 30%-50% off the standard price.
It can't be emphasized what a good deal this is, for the best 1/64 diecast models there are. You don't have to take my word for it, just ask anyone who has been lucky enough to snag any of these.

Top 3 Hardest Languages to Learn in the World
by Mark Alan September 23, 2021 October 30, 2022 0226
Have you ever think about what are the things which make languages the hardest languages to learn? Words are grouped in grammar to produce sentences that make sense. Getting used to a language with very different grammar is an important part of learning it.
Japanese, unlike the English alphabet, uses three different sets of characters (hiragana, katakana, and Japanese Kanji). Each symbol or picture has its unique meaning and sound.
A native English speaker used to their ABCs ma`y need a bit of time to get used to this! It is also interesting to consider the effects of changing the order of words.
A person used to language with a subject-verb-object structure (for example, I ate an ice cream) will have to adjust to Korean's subject-object-verb structure, for example: (I ice cream ate). Grammatical errors can be frightening for some people.
1 Sound, Tone, and Pronunciation
2 Differences in Culture
3 3 Hardest Languages to Learn
3.1 1. Chinese
3.2 2. Arabic
3.3 3. Japanese
Sound, Tone, and Pronunciation
If you want to use the language, you need to speak it. Developing new sounds, tones, and pronunciation is involved. Learn to speak in sounds that are different from your native language, it's a challenge you will love! It is more challenging to learn a new language when your native language's sounds differ greatly from that of your target language.
A period of adjustment is also included. You must loosen up and embrace errors to achieve this. The way you pronounce a word determines its meaning in Mandarin Chinese.
Those who speak Romance languages may have difficulty with this. A Norwegian trying to understand Scandinavian or Danish may be able to grasp it. However, Norwegian, Danish and Swedish has a similar tone.
Differences in Culture
Culture is defined by its language. You can speak a language appropriately if you understand the culture's language nuances. Depending on the context – such as who you're talking to – you might choose a different word or phrase.
In Asian cultures, politeness is important, so learn Japanese by considering this. Other differences exist as well. Korea's cultural norm is that people don't use sarcasm or make jokes in verbal communication. Instead, they become physically active! So be careful if you usually perform jokes in your native language.
3 Hardest Languages to Learn
1. Chinese
The Chinese language (including its main dialects Cantonese and Mandarin) is the most widely spoken in the world? No Surprise, it's a very useful language. Particularly in business.
However, it isn't easy! There are a lot of characters you have to recognize and know their meanings and pronunciations. It is also important for new speakers to think about the tone in which they use words and phrases because it influences their understanding.
2. Arabic
With a lot of distinct sounding sounds, Arabic is a unique language and the hardest language to learn. Some are getting used to in terms of pronouns, nouns, verbs, and adjectives of singular, dual, and plural forms.
Its written script is also impressive. Words in Arabic are also devoid of vowels. Is this something we're selling? Here is what you need to know. With over 422 million speakers, Arabic is a great language for business communication.
Also, it allows you to talk to people in more than 25 countries! You will learn how to introduce yourself, get around, and use colloquial expressions to communicate.
3. Japanese
It is not only about watching anime with no subtitles and ordering sushi that you should learn Japanese. It is fascinating to learn about Japanese culture.
Therefore, to learn it properly, you need to spend some time listening to native speakers in context, practicing yourself, and memorizing a few Japanese Kanji. It's fun to take on these challenges.

The Best Way to Reform Social Security
Eliminate the payroll tax. Seriously.
The best way to reform Social Security is to eliminate the payroll tax. Seriously.
Social Security is going bankrupt, but official Washington can't agree on how to fix it. Payroll tax receipts are insufficient to pay promised benefits. For decades, the trustees of the Social Security program have annually warned that the trust fund is out of balance and, absent reforms, will go broke. Current projections show the fund will be exhausted by the early 2030s (15 to 20 years from now).
At that point, there will be only enough tax revenue coming in to fund about 75 percent of promised benefits. The options will be unpleasant. Either everyone's monthly Social Security check will have to be reduced by 25 percent, or payroll receipts will have to be increased by 25 percent, or millions of retirees will have to be dropped from the rolls. Realistically, politicians will balk.
Acting sooner makes reform somewhat easier, but there are still only three ways to remedy this problem: a) cut benefits, b) increase receipts or c) both.
Cutting benefits is unpopular, so politicians never embrace benefit cuts, except to the extent they only affect future generations not yet old enough to vote. /1
Increasing taxes is also bad politics, but a bit more politically acceptable, because there's less pain per person: it's spread over a larger population. There are about 59 million retirees, but 144 million workers.
House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Paul Ryan has called Social Security's bankruptcy the 'most predictable' crisis in history. All can see it coming, yet none takes evasive action. Why? Because conservatives and progressives can't agree on the remedy and don't trust each other enough to compromise. And voters don't seem to like any of the proposed remedies. So the default position is to do nothing.
Progressives want to raise the payroll tax. Conservatives are opposed. Conservatives want to reduce benefits. Progressives are opposed. Conservatives want to create personal accounts. Progressives are opposed. Progressives want to increase benefits. Conservatives are opposed.
Progressives probably have the upper hand with their preferred remedy of increasing the payroll tax that currently funds Social Security. But that doesn't make it a good idea. It's a bad idea, because the tax is already too high (15.3 percent of wages, including the employer share), and destroys jobs and hurts workers, especially those with the lowest incomes. Some progressives want to increase the tax only on upper-income earners, who are currently exempted from it on wage income above $118,500 a year. That would help restore balance, but only partly.
Conservatives have a basically sound idea with their proposal to invest some or all of Social Security's receipts in the stock market via personal accounts. Doing so would fetch higher returns than the government can provide. But it's also risky. Crashes happen. Either retirees would lose money or taxpayers would be forced to provide bailouts. At any rate, the idea is going nowhere, because Democrats strongly oppose it, and so, quietly, do many Republicans. President George W. Bush's 2005 personal accounts proposal never came to a vote in either house of Congress, even though Republicans controlled both. Voters love the security part of Social Security, and that means avoiding risk.
The most practical, and in my view, the best way to restore system balance would be to simply supplement the payroll tax from other revenue sources, and in particular from the general fund (i.e., income taxes). That would make the program solvent forever. Presto! No more bankruptcy threat.
Which leads to a further idea: Why not supplant the payroll tax altogether, and as soon as possible? The payroll tax is the biggest tax most Americans pay, and regressive. It falls hardest on low-wage workers. Eliminating it would provide meaningful relief to every American wage-earner, with the greatest relief going to those who need the the help the most. Abolishing it would be economically beneficial and politically popular. To avoid increasing the deficit, we could raise or impose other taxes that are less regressive—although, to be honest, I'm not sure we really need to. If anything, America's less-than-stellar economy could stand a tax cut right now, and what better kind of tax cut than one that reduces burdens on job creation?
The conventional wisdom says we'll eventually meet in the middle by swallowing a mixture of tax hikes, benefit cuts, and a higher retirement age. Don't believe it. No such 'grand bargain' will materialize until demanded by voters. Realistically, that will only happen when the crisis is upon us, by which point, it will be too late. The closer we get to bankruptcy, the less effective, and less politically viable, each of the traditional remedies becomes. It's a game of chicken, and seems destined to end badly, absent some creative thinking.
But wait. Isn't a 'grand bargain' exactly what happened back in 1983, when the trust fund was on the brink of exhaustion and a Democratic Congress and President Ronald Reagan reluctantly came together to enact the Greenspan Commission's proposed compromise of payroll tax hikes and a higher retirement age?
Yes, that did happen. But this is not 1983. The problem is much bigger now, thanks to the baby-boom generation, which began retiring in 2010 and is now joining the rolls at the rate of 10,000 seniors a day. Back in 1983, there were 3.2 workers for every retiree. By 2030, there will be only about 2 workers for every retiree. The Greenspan age hike was phased in slowly, over 40 years. In fact, it's still being phased in. Any large, last-minute age hike would be politically unacceptable to those near-retirees directly affected by it. And while the Greenspan tax hike amounted to a 63 percent increase, that was from a smaller base. It went from 9.35 percent of wages in 1983 to 15.3 percent in 1990 and thereafter. A solvency-restoring tax hike in 2030 would take us from 15.3 percent to at least 19 percent. It's hard to imagine voters going along with that high a rate.
The best time to reform Social Security was four or five decades ago. The next best time is today. But lacking a consensus, we procrastinate. And the more we procrastinate, the more politically impractical our options become—and the further a second Greenspan 'grand bargain' recedes into the mists of fantasy-land.
I can predict with near-100 percent certainty what will actually happen. Barring the miraculous, Congress will bail out the Social Security trust fund from the general fund, supplementing payroll tax receipts with other kinds. It's the path of least resistance, and therefore the path most likely to be taken.
So the real question is not whether to tap the general fund, but when? And if we're going to move away from reliance on the payroll tax, why not eliminate it altogether?
Question: Won't abolishing the payroll tax hurt Social Security politically? Voters view the tax as a contribution for insurance, as funding for a 'pension.' Won't ending the tax make Social Security look like welfare and thus expose it to deficit-reduction efforts?
Response: That won't happen. What actually protects Social Security benefits is their tremendous popularity with voters. And that popularity will not diminish when we change how they're funded, something we will inevitably be forced to do. Believe me, seniors will still cherish and defend their monthly checks, and politicians will still be scared to death of touching them, regardless of the funding source. The fact is, legally speaking, the payroll tax is not a contribution for insurance, it's just another tax. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed this. The benefits and the tax are technically unrelated. They have to be, for the courts to view them as constitutional. In fact, Congress could abolish all Social Security benefits this afternoon, and no court in the land could restore them. Likewise, if Congress were to repeal the tax, the benefits would go on being calculated and paid according to law, as they have since 1935. The payroll tax is ornamental, not essential.
Question: Without the payroll tax, how would we calculate each person's benefit amount?
Response: The same way we do today, by tracking workers' wages.
Question: How would we fund Medicare Part A, which also relies on the tax?
Response: The same way we'd fund Social Security, from general revenue.
Question: Why now? Why not wait till 'the crisis is upon us'? We've got 15 to 20 years, after all.
Response: Actually, we've got fewer than 15 years. Social Security's disability fund, which is separate from its retirement fund, is projected to go bankrupt next year. Most likely, Congress will bail it out by diverting money from the retirement fund, and thus accelerate the latter's exhaustion. If, alternatively, Congress taps the general fund, well, I rest my case. /2
Think of the upsides. With this one simple reform, we'd not only make Social Security permanently solvent, we'd also increase workers' paychecks, make taxes less regressive, and create more jobs. Admittedly, absent other reforms, we'd also increase the deficit. But that's a problem we need to tackle in any case. The benefits of this Social Security reform would outweigh the downsides. And I suspect voters would love it.
The best way to reform Social Security is to eliminate the payroll tax.

1. Congress has on two occasions tried to delegate to the president the unpleasant task of cutting entitlement benefits, in hopes of shielding themselves from political blowback, but in both cases (the Economy Act of 1933 and the IPAB law of 2010) the attempt failed when the politicians got cold feet and reversed themselves.
2. In the autumn of 2015, Congress 'saved' the disability fund from bankruptcy by diverting a share of payroll tax receipts from the retirement fund to the disability fund. That, of course, accelerated the exhaustion date of the retirement fund. As of this writing, in September 2018, the disability fund is projected to run out of money in 2032, the retirement fund in 2034.

From when you're broke to when you've finally made it.
Spend your last summer vacay before entering the ~*real world*~ in Palawan, where you'll gain a better appreciation of the Philippines. See the Underground River; live it up in El Nido; relax in Honda Bay; venture out to Coron; and check out the restaurant scene in Puerto Princesa.
For your first time out of the Philippines, pick a nearby, visa-free destination with a good balance of culture and modernity. You can't go wrong with either Hong Kong or Singapore. With amusement parks, excellent shopping options, clean neighborhoods, cultural attractions, and a public transportation system we really wish we could replicate in Manila, they give us a glimpse of what the Philippines could've been.
There's a good reason why Japan is on everyone's bucket list: The scenery is amazing, the culture is incredible, the people are so kawaii, and the food…we can go on forevs. A trip here can drain your wallet, though, so start saving up for it ASAP!
One of the easiest ways to know if your man's a keeper is if you can go on trips together without wanting to strangle each other. Davao's a great place to make new memories if neither of you has been there before. See the Philippine Eagles up close; try the stinky but tasty durian; and frolic on the pristine shores of Samal Island.
The idea of traveling alone can be daunting, but it's not as lonely as it seems! Cebu is an excellent choice for your first solo trip. It's well connected, so you can totally hop on to Negros or Bohol for more adventures!
Exploring a new country on your own is an empowering, exciting experience every girl shouldn't miss out on. For your first solo trip abroad, Thailand is a great option. See the temples, and go shopping in Bangkok. Make your way down south to Phuket for some fun under the sun. You can also check out Pai and Chiang Mai for a more laid-back adventure. And since it's one of the leading backpacker hotspots in the world, you're bound to meet several other solo travelers (maybe even a hottie!) while you're there!
Every girl (even the most tamad ladies out there) should try climbing a mountain at least once in her life. Yes, it's tiring, and your legs will be killing you for days after your climb, but that sense of pride you'll get upon reaching the summit is irreplaceable. If you can only climb one mountain, make it Mt. Pulag. With several trails for all experience levels plus an amazing summit view, it's a must-visit destination for non-hikers and experienced trekkers alike.
Spending your honeymoon in Paris might not be the most original thing, but come on, it's the City of Love! If you've had your fill of France, you can head to other equally romantic countries like Italy and Greece, or you can explore Hungary, Poland, Croatia, and the other countries in Eastern Europe to veer slightly off the tourist track. Got more cash to burn? Head to the Nordic countries to see the Northern Lights for a trip you'll never forget.
Securing a U.S. visa isn't the easiest thing to do, so to maximize your chances of getting approved, make sure you have a stable job before applying. You'll really need to save up and prepare for it, but the trip will be absolutely worth it.


The prints from the Yorkshire Photographic Union (YPU) are on tour and on Monday 28th January arrived at Wakefield from Scarborough. The normal practice is just to display them for all to see but this year we adopted a different approach. The idea came from David Kershaw and he acted as MC for the evening.
He introduced the event by explaining the differences between the judging methods of the Royal Photographic Society and the PAGB of which the YPU is a part. The RPS have a team of six and may take twenty minutes to assess a panel (or group) of prints. The YPU uses just 3 judges who take a few seconds to look at a single print and then give it a score. It has to be so rapid as they have hundreds to get through. As David pointed out, the scores can vary quite dramatically between judging at different events and, as usual, not everyone agrees with the judges, His idea was to select 3 members of the club who would sit at the front and score each print between 1 and 5 and then this would be compared wit the score given by the YPU judges.
The judging started and it was a light-hearted affair with many, including David, chipping in to providing comments/observations. It was illuminating to see the differences between the YPU score and the one from our own members and to hear some of the reasons given for the score. There was added piquancy when the print belonged to a member of the audience which occurred more than once. After the score was given in "Strictly" style by holding up a number, the print was put up on the stands for later perusal. When the stands were full everyone had a break and could go up close to the prints and check whether they thought the score was appropriate in their eyes. After the break it was on again with the second batch of prints.
It all made for a light but informative evening. The scores generated lots of conversations and debates about what made a good image. Truly it was found that "beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder". Thank you for coming up with the idea David and to the "judges" who attempted the daunting task of assessing a print in less than 10 seconds! Try it yourself sometime and see how hard it can be.

Sustainable Development Manager
http://corporate.marksandspencer.com/stories/blog/why-we-joined-the-call-to-action-on-the-cerrado
Soy is an important raw material for M&S. We sell products like soya milk and use fresh soya beans in our salads and soya lecithin in chocolate. However, like all major retailers, the majority of the soya used in our supply chain is for livestock feed. As part of Plan A, our eco and ethical programme, we've committed to exclude deforestation from our soy supply chain to protect high carbon and species rich ecosystems like the Amazon, the Cerrado and the Gran Chaco, and remain determined to achieve this goal.
We have taken many steps over the last decade to ensure our suppliers only use soy in line with this commitment. We are long standing members of the Amazon Soy Moratorium Customer Group, that ensures our soy is not linked to deforestation in the region. We have supported the implementation of the Brazilian Forest Code which specifies standards that ensure legal compliance and supplemented that by buying credits that support producers certified to the Roundtable on Responsible Soy – the gold standard.
We have invested in two three-year projects to build the capacity of producers in Paraguay and communities in Peru to protect forests in their respective regions, and we work with the industry through our participation in the Retail Soy Group and Co-Chairmanship of the Consumer Goods Forum (CGF) Soy Working Group, harnessing business voice and energy towards our shared deforestation and sustainable production goals.
We believe Brazil has done much to protect its forests. Yet as recently as a month ago we were being told by WWF and Greenpeace that producers in Brazil were unconvinced of market demand for deforestation-free soy.
It was clear that brands and retailers needed to do more.
Sometimes it's all about timing. In the weeks running up to these conversations with WWF and Greenpeace, the landscape changed.
Firstly, a long list of Brazilian civil society organisations released the Cerrado Manifesto that highlighted how critically vulnerable the ecosystem was becoming due to cattle grazing and soy development, and that the Forest Code was not offering enough protection in the region. In many ways Brazil has been a victim of its own success. By protecting the Amazon, it has displaced new soy production to the neighbouring Cerrado.
We were also provided with strong evidence that large areas of land were available for conversion to soy production, land that is perfectly fit for agriculture but not in areas of precious forest or species-rich eco systems. Not only that, it is now possible to map and manage land changes in the Cerrado, something it is much more difficult to do in the area compared to dense tropical forest like the Amazon.
Additionally the Coalition for Forests and Agriculture was formed with a mandate to find solutions to the many obstacles in the way of progress.
The team at the Consumer Goods Forum saw an opportunity to shift the agenda in a more positive direction, to unequivocally state our collective business desire for production that does not destroy native vegetation.
So with help from colleagues in Unilever, Tesco and Ahold-Delhaize, I reached out to major European, International and Brazilian users of soy and cattle to seek support for the Cerrado Manifesto.
The result is that, today, we have published a statement of support – signed by 23 global companies, including M&S, McDonald's, Nando's, Unilever, Tesco and Walmart – for the objectives of the Cerrado Manifesto and a commitment to work with local and international stakeholders to halt deforestation and native vegetation loss in Brazil's Cerrado.
Our clear ask is partnership. We want to work with the Brazilian government, civil society, and producers to develop sustainable and deforestation-free production, not only in the Cerrado, but in other areas like the Gran Chaco. We want to show that economic growth and agricultural development need not be incompatible with conservation of the natural landscapes we depend on for climate mitigation, water stability and species protection. We will work with international investors, climate funds, multi-national institutions to show Brazil and other countries that protecting forests does not make people poorer.
Considerable challenges remain: technical, political, logistical and economic, but unless we work together, with determination and tenacity, on a shared goal of green growth, these will never be overcome.
We look forward to being part of this process and helping our sector towards sustainable growth, and deforestation free soy.

Back in early January, I was in D.C. (technically, 35 minutes outside of the city) for a client business trip in the bean-counting part of my life. After working long hours during the week, my team and I were given the day off on a Sunday, so I decided to go into D.C. with my two friends, Angela and Krystal.
I made on request that we stop at this cupcakery located in D.C.'s neighborhood, Dupont Circle, called Hello Cupcake. What an adorable name!
These were the flavors offered that day. I'm a fan of their cupcake flavor names, especially Prima Donna, Heart of Darkness, and Raspberry Beret.
I went with the Raspberry Beret, mainly because after having raspberry cupcakes from Butter Lane in the East Village, I've come to love raspberry buttercream! The Raspberry Beret is a chocolate cupcake with a sweet little cap of raspberry buttercream frosting and chocolate sprinkles. The buttercream was great--really light and not overly sweet. The cake was a little dry.
Findings: The cupcakes from Hello Cupcake look really cute! The buttercream I had on my Raspberry Beret was delicious, but as I said before, the cupcake part was a bit dry. I would definitely go back and try it again. It was a Sunday afternoon when I went, so maybe it was part of the day's last batch. Nonetheless, it was nice to make a stop at a D.C. cupcakery while away from home!
Price point: $3 for one cupcake.

I'm sorta iffy on this whole cupcake bakery trend. If most of what you sell is cupcakes, they are going to be pricey cupcakes. And really, unless it is the best cupcake I have ever had or I'm stranded at an airport, I don't want a super expensive cupcake. Plus, it's annoying to get something from a bakery that's no better than what I could make with some Duncan Hines.
To be honest, I don't really like cupcakes all that much--I just love ogling at them, haha. What I really am a sucker for are macarons, and for those, I am willing to pay a little more for because of the amount of labor that goes into making a small batch. But you're right. Cupcakes are overpriced. They SHOULD be the best cupcake you've ever had (for me, that's Butter Lane or ChikaLicious)! As you've said before, I think you and Anna should open up that bakery--you guys would make a fortune!

About Heather Phillipson
An internationally exhibiting artist as well as a poet, Heather Phillipson received an Eric Gregory Award in 2008 and has since published three books of poetry: a pamphlet with Faber & Faber in 2009 (part of the Faber New Poets scheme); NOT AN ESSAY (Penned in the Margins, 2012); and Instant-flex 718 (Bloodaxe, 2013), which was shortlisted for the 2013 Fenton Aldeburgh First Collection Prize. In 2014 she was named one of twenty Next Generation Poets by the Poetry Book Society. As an artist, her recent and forthcoming solo shows include the Istanbul Biennial, Performa New York, Schirn Frankfurt and the Whitechapel Gallery, London.
In Phillipson's video, sculpture and audio-works, she frequently employs and remixes live and recorded speech, song and other vocal noises, and the substance this practice can lend the voice – as both a distinct entity and a chorus, containing multitudes, and alert to profuse doublings, slippages and equivocations – is likewise palpable in her poetry. In Phillipson's poems, this is a mind operating as a receptacle for the barrage of voices (verbal and visual) to which we find ourselves subjected, daily – 'Duct tape, crude oils, minerals + multi-vits!' – a reinvigorating of colloquial and 'trash' language which allows our means of meaning-making to be playfully confronted and questioned: 'Who am I trying to kid? Excuse me while I peel my banana', she writes in one poem, or in another, 'I don't know what I need. I need to get out of these wet leggings and into a dry Martini'.
If Phillipson has a talent for the deadpan one-liner (and by the way, she is very witty), her poems are also playing a longer game; their abundance of images, phrases and emotions build towards a sense of cosmic overwhelm, of human consciousness operating at the highest pitch. As Carol Rumens has noted, Phillipson's poetry is 'slangily alive', demonstrating 'a ranging, doubting, self-delighting, word- and idea-packed intelligence'. This energy and dynamism is made apparent not only through content but also visually (as, to use W. N. Herbert's phrase, 'befits a practising artist') – typographically – through her skilful use of punctuation styles not widely used in mainstream poetry, such as caps lock, exclamation points, frequent full stops (or the opposite), and so on, an approach which can lend the poems the frenetic, seductive quality of Pop Art, though this is not to detract from their intellectual rigour.
Chris Emslie in The Edinburgh Review has described Phillipson's work as 'fizzy reportage', remarking that '[her] poetics are manifold, and her poems an amalgam of every material the world throws at her', while Dai George has called her 'generous and humane', quotations which seem to underscore a politics at the heart of Phillipson's work, its spirit of non-hierarchical enquiry which strives to take into account 'the whole planet', occasionally 'wondering if I've really considered EVERYone else's feelings'.

Lol ranger hurt me! Someone call the police! It hurts it hurts!
I cropped out the GA because of the stupid spellchecker.
Oh I see, that is a crazy round none-the-less.
this was all in 1 round of battle?
that's something like what, 7.7m damage in 1 round from 1 minion (Hal)?
It is from his archer, Dog.
I really have no idea how I beat you.
Your AS/GA should easily kill both my familiar and my tank with some HP left to kill my enchanter.
My DM does not even start to touch your ED spells.
So how does hitting you 50 times a round matter? You in fact count on it due to AS/GA.
I even changed to MM to beat your Archer, but MM hits like a dry sponge.
What level MM vs a 44 MgS?
but you are using buckler of mandos.
Your right. I have been switching back and forth for a while now. Testing things.
I have no idea if Rawr is fighting and seeing the damage vs my MgS or BoM.

Ex-Gambian President, Yahya Jammeh
Gambia Approves Life Sentence for 'Aggravated Homosexuality'
byPress Release
Gambia's recent passage of a more stringent anti-gay law will put the already persecuted lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) community in the country at even greater risk of abuse, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said Saturday.
The new crime of "aggravated homosexuality," which carries punishments of up to life in prison, is part of a criminal code President Yahya Jammeh approved on October 9, 2014, documents uncovered in mid-November show.
Among those who could be charged with "aggravated homosexuality" are "serial offenders" and people living with HIV who are deemed to be gay or lesbian.
Exactly what constitutes "homosexuality" or a "homosexual act" is not defined in Gambian law.
"That makes Gambia's criminalization of homosexual activity – which already violates international law – even more likely to be used broadly and arbitrarily," Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said.
"The new law treats consensual, private sexual activity between adults of the same sex – which should not be a crime – in the same way as rape and incest," said Steve Cockburn, deputy regional director for West and Central Africa at Amnesty International.
"The vague and imprecise provisions of this law could be used to arrest and detain anyone who is believed to be gay or lesbian, and contributes to the already severe climate of hostility and fear for LGBTI people in the country."
The rights groups accused the Gambian authorities of failing to acknowledge the enactment of the "aggravated homosexuality" law, despite repeated questioning during a United Nations review of the country's human rights record on October 28.
The statement added, "Legislation in force in the country already criminalizes consensual, private sexual activity between adults of the same sex, in violation of international human rights law.
How Nigeria's debt repayment is taking huge toll on yearly budgets
"Passing the law appears to form part of a broader attack on the LGBTI community in Gambia. At least three women, four men, and a 17-year-old boy were arrested between November 7 and 13 and threatened with torture because of their presumed sexual orientation. Another six women were arrested on November 18 and 19 and remain in detention, a member of the LGBTI community in Gambia reported.
"The detainees said that they were told that if they did not "confess," including by providing the names of others, a device would be forced into their anus or vagina to "test" their sexual orientation. Such treatment would violate international law prohibiting torture and ill-treatment.
"Arresting and torturing people based on their sexual orientation is shameful, and inventing new crimes with even harsher sentences is scandalous," Cockburn said. "Gambia's new law not only flouts African human rights obligations, it violates its own constitution, which says that all people must be equal and free from discrimination before the law."
"President Jammeh should have used his constitutional powers to reject this homophobic bill, which was proposed by the National Assembly on August 25, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said.
"President Jammeh's inflammatory public statements against LGBTI people have been put into practice through this odious law and the witch hunt that followed its secretive passage," said Monica Tabengwa, Africa researcher at Human Rights Watch. "The law and practice are an affront to the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights resolution condemning violence against LGBTI people and calling for those responsible to be brought to justice."

Castlevania II (NES)
Genre: Action, Role-Playing (RPG)
Gameplay: Metroidvania, Platform
Setting: Europe, Fantasy
Published by: Konami
Developed by: Konami Industry Co.
Platform: Nintendo (NES)
Seven years after defeating Dracula, Simon fell under the curse of Dracula, and he was tormented by infernal pains all over his body. The only way to remove the curse is to resurrect Dracula and destroy him again. This will become the goal of the game - to travel through different castles and collect parts of Dracula, collect them together, revive the Earl and defeat him in battle.
The game "Castlevania II: Simon's Quest" is a continuation of the first part, but it changes the genre of the game from the usual platformer to the quest. Now Simon must, traveling to different localities, solve puzzles and different tasks, buy weapons and items.
The currency in the game are hearts that fall out of dead enemies. The game has a mode of changing the day and night, which switches every 5 minutes a night for a day or vice versa. At night, enemies become more aggressive and stronger, and shops in cities are closed. There is no time limit in the game, but the length of the game depends on the end of the game. The main character has 3 lives and 3 continuations. If you die, you appear in the same place where you died.
In the game there is a currency system, these are the hearts. They fall out of dead enemies. If you lose all your lives, you lose all your hearts.
The Belmont whip during the game can be replaced by others:
Studded whip. It is slightly longer than the base, and covered with spines.
Chain whip (very powerful).
Morning Star. Longer and more powerful than the chain whip.
"The whip of fire." The most powerful whip in the game, kills any enemy with one hit. To receive it, you must have the Morning Star in service.
It is noteworthy that the game has 3 different endings. They depend on how much time you spent playing:
Bad. You defeat Dracula, but you still get the poison, and Simon dies at the end of the game. To get this ending, pass the game as slowly as possible. At the end there will be a gray screen with a grave, without Simon.
Standard. You defeat Dracula, bury him, but die from poison later. This is the end of the standard, go through the game at the usual speed. In the end there will be a blue background, Simon stands.
Good. You defeat Dracula and successfully heal. In the end there will be a red background, Simon stands.
The European version does not differ from the American one, but it came out later, and some spelling mistakes were corrected.
In general, the second part of the game was not so enthusiastically received as the first and third, but it is nevertheless a very high-quality product. I will give an example of estimates for individual components taken from the review from the GameFAQs website: history - 8, gameplay - 9, graphics - 7, sound - 10, control - 8, total score - 8 points out of 10 possible.
First Palace
The first thing you do in the city is buying a crystal (right). Move then all the way to the right, and you will find yourself in the palace of Dracula. Here it is necessary to find his bone. You will use it later as a means of protection.
In another city near the palace you will meet a warrior who will exchange your white crystal for blue. After that, head to the right and, taking a blue crystal, bend the knee on the shore of the lake. Your prayers will not be in vain - a passage will appear over the lake.
Second Palace
In the palace on the right you will find the heart of Dracula. After doing this, go back to the starting position and move to the left. When you get to the gate, show the heart to the carrier (but do not give it back!).
Third Palace
In it is the eye of Dracula. The carrier will take you here. He will change the blue crystal for you to red. At Death, take away the gold dagger - you will be able to kill Dracula in the final.
Red Crystal
Continue to the left until you reach the mountain. Standing with a red crystal kneeling in front of the mountain. You will wait for the appearance of a whirlwind, which will take you through the mountain, to the fourth palace. The red crystal will also help you see the lifting platform at the beginning of the Berkley Mansion, not visible without it.
Fourth Palace
In this palace Dracula's nail is kept. Leaving the palace, go left. The peasant you meet is likely to try to kill you. If you have not stinted earlier and bought yourself a star for two hundred hearts, then his insidious plans will not come true.
Fifth Palace
Continuing to the left. You will find yourself in the fifth palace with the signet of Dracula. Here you need to kill the Vampire mask to get the cross. Going down the big stairs. You will be in the cemetery. If you put garlic here, Death will come out and offer the thing you need. The upper bricks of the bridge can be broken using holy water.
Palazzo Castlevania
Go down the stairs and kill the count with a golden dagger from the palace with Dracula's eye. The grave of the king of vampires symbolizes the happy end of the game.
How to find a lift in Berkeley Castle
At the very beginning of Berkeley Castle there is a hidden moving elevator. To make the elevator full, Simon should choose a crystal. If he does not have Crystal in his hands, we will not see the elevator.
More tricks with Crystals!
You will, however, be able to cross Lake Yuba without a blue crystal. When you reach the lake, hold the Blue Crystal and kneel down to discover the secret passage. To overcome Deborah's cliffs, use the Red Crystal. When you reach the Cliffs, hold the Red Crystal and kneel down. The vortex will carry you away. When you reach the last irresistible lake, again select the Red Crystal and kneel down. Will open another secret passage.

Eric CartmanEric Cartman
Eric Cartman
Eric Theodore Cartman, often referred to as just Cartman, is a main character in the animated television series South Park, created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and voiced by Parker. Cartman is one of four central characters in South Park, along with Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, and Kenny McCormick. Cartman first appeared, originally named Kenny, in prototypical form in a 1992 animated short Jesus vs. Frosty, and a 1995 animated short Jesus vs. Santa, and first appeared on television in the pilot episode of South Park, "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", on August 13, 1997. Cartman is an elementary school student who lives with his mother in the fictional town of South Park, Colorado, where he routinely has extraordinary experiences atypical of a small town. Cartman has been portrayed as aggressive, prejudiced, arrogant and narcissistic since his character's inception; Stone and Parker describe the character as "a little Archie Bunker". These traits are significantly augmented in later seasons as his character evolves and he begins to exhibit extremely psychopathic, sociopathic and manipulative behavior and also be depicted as highly intelligent, able to execute morally appalling plans and business ideas with success. Cartman is considered to be the most popular character on South Park. Parker and Stone state that he is their favorite character, and the one with whom they most identify. South Park has received both praise and criticism for Cartman's politically incorrect behavior. Prominent publications and television channels have included Cartman on their lists as one of the most iconic television and cartoon characters of all time.
