Syria Joins Paris Climate Accord, Leaving Only U.S. Opposed

By Lisa Friedman
WASHINGTON — Then there was one.
Syria announced during United Nations climate talks on Tuesday that it would sign the Paris agreement on climate change. The move, which comes on the heels of Nicaragua signing the accord last month, will leave the United States as the only country that has rejected the global pact.
According to several people who were in a plenary session at the climate talks in Bonn, Germany, a Syrian delegate announced that the country was poised to send its ratification of the Paris agreement to the United Nations.
"This is the very last country that actually announced, so everyone has joined and the U.S. is now so isolated," said Safa Al Jayoussi, executive director of IndyAct, an environmental organization based in Lebanon that works with Arab countries on climate change.
A White House spokeswoman, Kelly Love, pointed reporters to a statement the administration made when Nicaragua joined the pact, noting there had been no change in the United States' position.
"As the president previously stated, the United States is withdrawing unless we can re-enter on terms the are more favorable for our country," the statement said.
President Trump announced in a Rose Garden speech this summer that the United States would quit the deal, calling it bad for America's economy.
The Paris agreement, struck in 2015 under former President Barack Obama, calls on nearly 200 countries to voluntarily curb greenhouse gas emissions. At the time, only Nicaragua and Syria did not join, for very different reasons.
Nicaraguan leaders argued that the deal did not go far enough toward keeping carbon emissions at safe levels and helping vulnerable countries protect themselves from the effects of climate change. But last month Daniel Ortega, Nicaragua's president, and Rosario Murillo, his vice president and wife, said in a joint statement that the country would sign anyway. "The Paris agreement, despite not being the ideal agreement, is the only instrument that currently allows this unity of intentions and efforts," they said.
Syria has been mired in a civil war since 2011. And because the Syrian government is subject to European and American sanctions, its leaders had been unable to send representatives abroad to negotiate or sign the pact.
Climate Change Is Complex. We've Got Answers to Your Questions.
We know. Global warming is daunting. So here's a place to start: 17 often-asked questions with some straightforward answers.
Roua Shurbaji, a spokeswoman at the Syrian mission to the United Nations, said the country's decision was part of an effort "to be effective in all international areas including climate change."
Syria has not yet submitted targets for cutting greenhouse gases. Syria produces only a tiny fraction of global emissions, but every country that is party to the accord, including poverty-stricken and war-torn nations and tiny islands, has produced a plan for cutting carbon output.
"We will get there," Ms. Shurbaji said. "We are in the process of becoming part of the agreement. We will have our commitments and targets."
"With Syria's decision, the relentless commitment of the global community to deliver on Paris is more evident than ever," said Paula Caballero, director of the climate change program at the World Resources Institute. "The U.S.'s stark isolation should give Trump reason to reconsider his ill-advised announcement and join the rest of the world in tackling climate change."
Under the rules of the Paris agreement, the United States cannot formally withdraw until late 2020. Until then, administration officials have said, they will continue to negotiate the terms of the deal, but they have not specified what changes would be sufficient for the United States to reconsider quitting. American negotiators are attending the talks underway in Germany.

Geneva by George Bernard Shaw
Staged Reading at Chicago's Ruth Page Theater
By: Nancy Bishop - Sep 21, 2015
A staged reading of Geneva. Photo by Dylan Stuckey.
In Geneva, a little known political drama by George Bernard Shaw, the dictators who start World War II are summoned before the international Court of Justice in The Hague to be tried for crimes against humanity. But before the dictators appear, we enjoy 90 minutes of dialogue about democracy, corruption and humanity, written as only GBS could do.
Shaw Chicago's new production of the 1938 play is another in its concert readings, performed by 12 costumed actors who clearly revel in the richness of Shaw's dialogue and characterizations. Director Robert Scogin takes advantage of the script's humor, political passions and ethnic stereotypes to stage a production that is funny and smart, and loaded with Shaw's diatribes against every form of political organization and chicanery.
The play opens in Geneva, in the office of the International Committee for Intellectual Cooperation, where nothing intellectual ever happens. The committee's secretary, Begonia Brown (Jhenai Mootz) is cheery and helpful to the complainants who file in. A Jew (Will Clinger) complains that his home was destroyed and he can't return to his native Germany. A widow (Kate Young, in a campy melodramatic performance) threatens revenge upon those who assassinated her husband, the president of the Republic of the Earthly Paradise (located somewhere in South America). An English bishop (Skip Lundby) arrives to complain that Communism is being taught in his diocese. And a Russian commissar (Jack Hickey) says that a dangerous organization is at work in Russia to overthrow the Soviet system and install the Church of England. Miss Brown dutifully forwards their complaints to the Court of International Justice, preparing the way for the rest of the story.
Political dialogue and machinations continue for several scenes. In the office of the League of Nations, the League Secretary (Nick Polus) and the British foreign secretary (Richard Marlatt) discuss the complaints. The Judge (smartly played by Gary Alexander) describes the coming trial. It turns out that Begonia Brown, whose political statements have a Sarah-Palinesque quality, is running for a seat in the House of Commons and later is named a Dame of the British Empire.
The final scene is the trial at The Hague. The three dictators arrive one by one to face judicial scrutiny: Bombardonne (Charles Stransky) and Battler (Jonathan Nichols) and finally General Flanco de Fortinbras (Matthew Fahey), who has already "devastated the strongholds of the enemies of my country, and slaughtered their inhabitants," as Francisco Franco did in the Spanish Civil War, which was nearly over by the time of Geneva's production.
Shaw is critical of all politics but really only mildly critical of the politics of these buffoons, whose ideas and militarism will soon bring about a world war. The Judge, who seems to speak in Shaw's voice, says at one point, "None of you seems to have any idea of the sort of world you are living in. Into the void created by this ignorance has been heaped a groundwork of savage superstitions: human sacrifices, vengeance, wars of conquest and religion, falsehoods called history, and a glorification of vulgar erotics called romance which transforms people who are naturally as amiable, as teachable, as companionable as dogs, into the most ferocious and cruel of all the beasts. And this, they say, is human nature!"
The play ends with the ultimate deux ex machina, involving quantum physics and astronomy. There's a slightly hopeful thought at the end.
The 12 actors' performances are generally fine, although a couple of the characters chew up the scenery with their over-the-top characterizations. We are watching a concert reading, but the actors have a strong grip on their roles and references to their scripts are not obvious. Clinger, Young and Alexander are especially strong in the roles of the Jew, the Widow and the Judge. Joe Lehman adds comic relief as the Journalist.
Shaw wrote this play in the late 1930s and its first productions were in Warsaw, Poland, and Malvern, England, in 1938. He tried to keep up with world events by updating the play but finally gave up in the late 1940s. Geneva is considered one of his "plays political" and sometimes is not even listed among his work, which included about 60 plays during his long life.
Shaw Chicago's production of Geneva continues through Sept. 28 with performances at 2pm Saturday and Sunday and 7pm Monday at the Ruth Page Theater, 1016 N. Dearborn St. Tickets are $30 and can be purchased online or by calling 312-587-7390.

St Albans song-writing competition part of folk festival
Published: 12:12 PM August 3, 2020 Updated: 3:11 PM November 1, 2020

After the success of last year's songwriting competition, the organisers of the 2020 St Albans Folk Festival are challenging you to take on a new theme this year.
They're looking for songs based on the theme of St Albans scoundrels: rule breakers, risk takers or mischief makers, whether it be a local historical figure or a story passed down through the generations of families.
This competition aims to celebrate the essence of St Albans and its music. It is open to people of all ages and abilities and entries from young people are being particularly welcome.
There are two age categories - under and over 18.
The songs should be the writers' own original material and explore themes seen in St Albans throughout its history.
The city is steeped in acoustic, folk and traditional music so the songs entered should fit broadly into these genres.
The competition will be judged by four accomplished judges from the music industry and from the local music scene, the duo Hannah Elizabeth and Griff Jameson, Neil King of the website Fatea and Kimpton Folk Festival and BBC afficionado Brian King.
It will be in two stages. The first is application and initial judging of the song recordings. Then the writers of the chosen entries will be asked to send videos of their songs to be played online on the evening of Saturday, September 26, as part of the St Albans Folk Festival.
This year's online festival takes place from September 25-27 .
Usually the annual folk festival is held on the first Wednesday in July. From 1988 to 2019, the popular event took place in St Michael's Street on the first Wednesday evening in July, with dancing in the street and music everywhere. The 2020 event was cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Organisers are keen to reinstate it as soon as it is safe to do so, but said it may be several years before can happen. If it possible to hold it as soon as 2021, it will be on Wednesday, July 7.
Feedback on the song-writing entries will be given after initial judging and those asked to perform their entries on September 26 this year will be given timeslots on the day.
Further details and an entry form can be found at www.stalbansfolkmusic.org.uk
Entry forms should be emailed to songcompetition@stalbansfolkmusic.org.uk and audio files should be sent by WeTransfer.

Die Römerbadruine Badenweiler ist eine Ruine einer römischen Therme in Badenweiler im Landkreis Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald. Sie gehört zu den ältesten Bauwerken Baden-Württembergs und gilt bis heute als eine der am besten erhaltenen Thermen nördlich der Alpen.

Geschichte

Seit 15 v. Chr. gliederten die Römer in mehreren Etappen bis 150 n. Chr. das Gebiet des heutigen Südwestdeutschlands als Teil der Provinz Germania Superior in ihr Weltreich ein. Sie brachten auch ein weit entwickeltes Badewesen mit und aus Thermalquellen, die schon in keltischer Zeit genutzt wurden, entstanden Kur- und Heilbäder. Die Quellgottheiten sollten den Kurerfolg garantieren, im Falle einer Heilung brachte man Opfer dar und errichtete dafür teils eigene Altäre. Das Römerbad in Badenweiler war der Göttin des Schwarzwaldes, Diana Abnoba, geweiht, wie vor Ort gefundene Inschriften bezeugen.

Die Thermen in Badenweiler entstanden in verschiedenen Bauphasen, mindestens sechs sind nachweisbar. Während in der ersten Hälfte des 1. Jahrhunderts n. Chr. ein kleiner Bau mit zwei Badebecken entstanden war, kamen später unter anderem Empfangs- und Umkleideräume, Schwitzräume mit Kaltwasserbecken und steinumfriedete Terrassen hinzu.

Nach dem Abzug der Römer um 260 n. Chr. endete vielerorts die antike Badekultur. Alamannische Funde in Badenweiler belegen jedoch, dass hier die Anlage zumindest noch eine Zeit lang weiterbenutzt wurde. Während einer älteren Ansicht zufolge Germanen das Bad schließlich doch zerstört hätten, wird andererseits vermutet, es könnte erst durch das schwere Basler Erdbeben von 1356 entscheidend in Mitleidenschaft gezogen worden sein.

Forschungsgeschichte

Erst im 18. Jahrhundert interessierte man sich wieder für das Römerbad. Markgraf Karl Friedrich von Baden ließ die Ruine 1784 wieder freilegen und die Funde durch eine Reihe von Maßnahmen schützen. Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts erhielt die Ruine in der Nähe ein neues Bad, das klassizistische Marmorbad im pompejanischen Stil. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten wurde es mehrfach erweitert. Die bereits von den Römern genutzten Thermalquellen, deren wärmste eine Temperatur von 26,4 °C hat, begründeten Badenweilers Ruf als Kurort.

Heutige Nutzung

Die Römerbadruine wurde im Jahr 2001 mit einem Schutzdach aus Stahl und Glas versehen, das seitdem vor Witterungseinflüssen schützt. Sie ist für Besichtigungen geöffnet, allerdings nicht mit Rollstühlen befahrbar. Eine Dauerausstellung bietet ein Bild römischer Badekultur. Die Römerbadruine zählt zu den landeseigenen Monumenten und wird von der Einrichtung Staatliche Schlösser und Gärten Baden-Württemberg betreut.

2011 Detroit Auto Show: Ford In Love With Electric Cars
Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield January 10, 2011 Comment Now!
Ford C-Max Energi, first revealed at the 2011 Detroit Auto Show
Just a few days after unveiling the 2012 Ford Focus Electric at the 2011 Consumer Electrics Show in Las Vegas, Ford has expanded its green fleet for 2012/13 with yet another plug in vehicle: The C-MAX Energi Plug-in Hybrid
From the specifications and the way Ford is talking about its new vehicles, one thing is clear: Ford has both the 2011 Chevrolet Volt and the 2011 Nissan LEAF in its sights.
Revealed to a packed audience earlier at the 2011 Detroit auto show, the five seat multi-activity vehicle is the new generation of an already popular European Ford Vehicle.
With the same integrated MyFord Touch interface found in the 2012 Ford Focus Electric, the 2012 Ford C-MAX Energi will allow owners to plan off-peak charging, remotely heat or cool their car and even unlock the vehicle remotely.
The C-MAX Energi will recharge overnight on a standard 110V Convenience Charging Chord, as well as faster 240V charging using compatible Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment, such as Ford's recently announced Home Charging Station.
Ford claims its C-MAX Energi will have better fuel economy that the 2011 Chevrolet Volt as well as a higher all-electric range. Just like the 2012 Ford Focus Electric announced on Friday, Ford hasn't yet released electric only range-per-charge figures, but has said that it will achieve more than 500 miles of range on a combined tank of gasoline and fully-charged battery.
It has also been engineered to comply with California's AT-PZEV regulations, meaning owners will be eligible to drive the C-MAX Energi in High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) Lanes even if there's only one person on-board.
Alongside conventional gasoline engined C-MAX models, the C-MAX will also be available as a non plug-in hybrid, the C-MAX Hybrid. Ford claims its fuel efficiency will beat that of its current best-selling hybrid, the Ford Fusion Hybrid.
Ford now has four new electrified vehicles scheduled for production: The all-electric 2011 Ford Connect EV commercial vehicle, the 2012 Ford Focus Electric, the 2012 Ford C-MAX Hybrid and the 2012 Ford C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid.

'Frozen Love' Crystallizes Longstanding Buckingham Nicks Partnership
Back in 1988, my mom brought home a coveted copy of the 1973 "Buckingham Nicks" self-titled album. She found the copy at a Detroit area record show and proudly brought it home to me.
As a budding Fleetwood Mac fan, I was awestruck. I had read about this commercially unsuccessful, but critically acclaimed album in Rolling Stone, Creem and other rock magazines as a kid.
For me, it was the crown jewel in my Fleetwood Mac vinyl album collection. I couldn't wait to hear what Lindsey Buckingham's and Stevie Nicks' material sounded like before they joined my favorite band.
The album felt like a preview to Fleetwood Mac's 1975 white album, especially because it features "Crystal." I loved the folky, ethereal groove the album carried throughout its 10 tracks, but there was one track that stayed with me and still does today – "Frozen Love."
The seven-minute track is an iconic part of Fleetwood Mac's history. It was the exact song Mick Fleetwood heard at Sound City from Keith Olsen when he was visiting the studio.
At that moment, Buckingham's exceptional guitar skills caught Fleetwood's attention and laid the groundwork for one of the most famous musical partnerships in history. Several months later, Fleetwood came a-knockin' for Buckingham and Nicks when the late (and great) Bob Welch left the band to form the short-lived Paris.
As a hardcore Fleetwood Mac fan, it was a quintessential moment for me when Fleetwood, Buckingham and Nicks retold the famous tale in Dave Grohl's 2013 "Sound City" documentary. You could hear the joy in their voices as they relived a crucial moment in their musical history. That type of joy reminds me why I love music in the first place.
For me, I love this song because of the events that transpired around the time it was recorded. Fleetwood and the McVies found the missing element – Buckingham and Nicks – they needed to take their music to the next level.
If Fleetwood hadn't visited Sound City that day, then my favorite band might not have ever joined forces to create some of the most memorable and commercially successful material of all time (at least in my opinion).
Despite the events that transpired, "Frozen Love" is one of the best tracks on the entire album. Its lush harmonies and brilliant guitar fingerpicking are a preview of the growing musical style Buckingham and Nicks would transfer to Fleetwood Mac's most commercially successful albums – "Fleetwood Mac," "Rumours" and many others.
The song also features one of my favorite Buckingham guitar solos ever. I love how he transitions from an acoustic to electric guitar solo in the middle of the song, and it's backed by an orchestral-like feel. It's as if the solo is meant to anchor the vocals on either side of it.
The vocals include classic harmonies by Buckingham and Nicks, and it's not hard to sense the growing tension in their relationship:
"You may not be as strong as me/And I may not care to teach you/It may be hard to keep up with me/But I'll always be able to reach you."
More than 40 years later, this theme still carries out personally and professionally for Buckingham and Nicks. There's something about their longstanding relationship that captures my attention. It's as if their relationship and love for one another will always be frozen at that point in time.

There is a point where your post literally repeats itself. "The album felt like a preview to Fleetwood Mac's 1975 white album…" is repeated. But other than that, I LOVE your writing! And I look forward to reading more of your posts. It's nice to see someone discussing real music that they love. It's an inspiring thing. I'm happy for you!
Lori Stratton says:
Thanks for your nice comment. My post was accidentally posted twice, so I've updated it. Looking forward to more of your movie reviews.

CPL has the Vision
UK – The Vision 2016 event in Bristol again turned to Central Presentations Ltd (CPL) to deliver full technical production for this two-day inspirational conference, which was attended by 350 delegates who were motivated and engaged by 25 energising talks from leading creatives and innovators.
Hailed as the most successful Vision to date, the event was staged in the Anson Rooms at Bristol University's Student Union building. CPL was working for production company Bright and has been involved in the event for the last four years. This year project manager Mike Radford ensured that everything ran smoothly on site, integrating elements of the venue's house lighting system where possible into the event design.
In the main room, normally used as a live band stage, they added a laser projector system utilizing a 16 x 9ft screen fed by one Panasonic RZ12k laser projector, with a black draped backdrop behind it.
A Barco PDS switcher was used for control and to add in various sources including laptops running individual speaker presentations together with some event laptops provided by CPL and a MacBook Pro with Playback Pro for playback of video content.
The CPL team made the most of the house lighting rig which included some moving heads and LED fixtures, augmenting this with parcans and CORE battery powered wireless up lighters around the room skimming up the walls. They also assisted generally in the lighting design for the room to ensure it was a fresh and invigorating environment to match the vibe of the event.
A d&b Y series sound system was installed, ground supported on stands, specified for its ability to deal with spoken word, and complete with a Yamaha QL1 mixer and a selection of Shure UHF mics.
In two break-out areas, which each catered for around 70 people, CPL installed similar video and audio systems but at a smaller scale, each with a flown Panasonic PT-VZ570 projector and a screen suspended from the house bars with a black drape behind to finish everything neatly. The PA systems for the breakout areas were d&b E series with Sennheiser G3 mics and Allen & Heath QU16 digital mixers.
In the adjacent exhibition area, a live social media wall was prominent in the space, automatically updated with Twitter and Instagram posts, fed via a blend of two Panasonic RZ 12K projectors beaming onto a 14.1 metre wide by 5.1 metre tall surface. The content was co-ordinated using an EventsTag media hub that looked for anything with the Vision 2016 hashtag, and the system was run into a Barco S3 event controller and displayed as a single live feed.
The media wall surface was graduated black to white from bottom to top, and custom cut to fit the available space in the foyer.
Most of the projected material was above 6ft high, with the projectors located on top of draped racking to conceal them as much as possible. The idea was also that as people moved through it to mingle and network with one another, they would also walk through some of the content as they broke the low angled projector beams, so the resolution was important to ensure the content didn't distort even when the beams were disrupted.
On the wall running down the opposite side of the room was a series of windows with daylight steaming in, but in spite of these, the projectors proved bright and intense enough to cut through with excellent results.
"It was a great event with lots of interaction from the delegates and we all enjoyed collaborating with Bright's crew again," commented Mike.

Political polarization in the United States is not a Washington DC problem, it's an American people problem. But because it's a people problem, the ultimate solution lies with them, with us. This roundtable pulled together folks from left, right and center and came up a range of ideas on how to fix the culture in the long-term, and tactically make progress in DC now. In the end, we did find much common ground and everyone felt more hopeful that America could work as one people once again. You will too.

went straight from the airport to the "High Wire?!" at "The Main Event." See for yourselves!
Wire before I Walk the JDRF Walk! 😬 I'm not gonna lie, it was kinda scary!!
Next to this "high-wire" walk, one of the highlights of my trip was meeting a fellow iHeart Radio colleague. The wonderful Mr. Moe Patterson who was also one of the main sponsors of this event so THANK YOU so much Moe to you and your brother for providing the home where many of my fellow Reality Show Stars stayed.
From there, we went to my favorite thing to do, meet the wonderful people that are making the donations to the JDRF. Here are some images from the 1st of 2 "Meet & Greets," that took place this weekend.
ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET...GOOO!!
Here I am about to partake in the GO Kart race alongside other fellow SURVIVORS and BIG BROTHER contestants!
and on our last day...how about some Miniatura Golf? Yes, please, here I am with my "Miniatura Golf Team" comprised of SURVIVOR contestants and fans of the show! These wonderful fans pay a fee to participate in all of these fun activities with us. All the money gets donated to our JDRF "Reality 4 Diabetes" Team fundraiser which this year raised close to $30K!
Watch and learn peoples! ...ha ha ha, but serisouly, I tied for 1st place!, yay!
On the last day, hours before embarking my flight to return to my home in Fort Lauderdale, we partook in what's apparently becoming a craze, The #EscapeRoom Experience. I had never heard of this, but there's a reason I was chosen to be on Survivor- I'll do pretty much anything-positive, of course. Here I am with another fellow Latino SURVIVOR "Castaway" Billy Garcia as we try to salve a puzzle as we warm up for our "Escape Room" task!
Here we are with the rest of our "Escape Room" Experience Team was made up of SURVIVOR fans. We had a BLAST figuring out the "mystery" hiding place of the Cincinnati Reds baseball tickets- We did it minutes before I had to be whisked away to the airport to cach my return flight!!! Whew!!
Not before giving a HUGE thanks to Tasha Wilkie and ALL the sponsors who made our being able to be there possible including The @CrownePlaza Hotel and a HUGE personal thanks to one of our DEAREST fans formerly known as "Big Mike" whom we're so happy for and proud of, btw, for his losing over 100 lbs, thus avoiding a diagnosis of Diabetes! THANK YOU so much Mike for sponsoring my flight.
Over 100 of us were at the "Pirate Theme" dinner!
MORE imporantly, the reason we were there...the sweet kids of "GIVE KIDS THE WORLD!"
I'm grateful to have fans of ALL ages! Yay!
& here's my most Huggable fan, Jason Rasmussen!


Aside from scenic spots, there are other attractions that are worth visiting in the town of Kikonai in Hokkaido. One of the places that you should visit in Kikonai is Suehiro-an, a popular shop that sells traditional Japanese sweets.
Established in 1934, Suehiro-an is one of the oldest confectionery shops in the town. Having been in the business for more than 80 years, Suehiro-an has become a go-to shop for sweets which are not only popular with locals but even foreigners as well.
Don't forget to try Koukou Mochi when you visit Kikonai!
The shop sells the all-time favorite Koukou mochi, a soy sauce and walnut-flavored rice cake snack that you must try in Kikonai.
Aside from Koukou mochi, they sell other delicacies which are proudly made in Japan. You may even sample some of their sweets! Their traditional sweets are best for souvenirs, so make sure to hoard these unique rice cakes you can only find in Kikonai.
Suehiro-an is one of the stops you'll make when you join the Kikonai Walking Tour. Aside from going to this shop, you'll also be able to try the rare Japanese liquor Misogi-no-Mai and experience purification in Misogi Beach when you join the tour.
Suehiro-an is just a few minutes walk away from Kikonai's Michi-no-eki Misogi-no-sato.


I once spoke with a youth ministry friend whose job was under probation. He clearly was anxious. This evaluation was not due to sin issues, lack of ministry passion, or complaining parents or teenagers. The issue, as explained by his superiors, was this: "Attendance is down in your program, so we're unsure about your leadership capacity. You may have reached the maximum level of your leadership."
This wasn't the healthiest means of leadership evaluation. It failed to truly evaluate my friend or position him for success. He became less focused on his personal development and growth. And he watched his fluctuating attendance like a hospital monitor plugged into his ministry. If attendance ever flat-lined, his job was over.
How do you measure leadership capacity?
Does successful ministry leadership mean attracting bigger crowds? Appearing hip, trendy, and cool? Growing a social media presence? Giving passionate talks? Is it possible to discern a person's maximum level of leadership? That makes it sound like ministry a role-playing game, and we're merely trying to "level up" as leaders.
I believe we can measure leadership capacity, but it's not determined by program attendance. Our analyses should be more qualitative than quantitative. Here are five questions to better evaluate leadership capacity.

What do you think: how do you measure leadership capacity?

Fully laden with explosives, the Mont Blanc was slowly sailing toward the crowded Bedford Basin to wait for the convoy to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Supply ships traveled in convoy for safety – WWI was in full operation.
The Imo was cruising through the same waterway on its way to port in New York City, where it would pick up a cargo of relief supplies destined for Belgium.
As events unfolded over a very short period of time, many watched from windows and hundreds ran to the waterfront, captivated by the excitement of a fiery ship floating in the busy harbour.
With a full cargo of munitions for Allied use in Europe, the Mont Blanc's load contained 200 tons of TNT, 10 tons of gun cotton, 2,300 tons of picric acid (used in explosives), and 35 tons of a highly explosive mixture called benzol. As the ship slowly sailed toward Bedford Basin, another ship, the Imo, was moving fast in the same water lane.
"At the entrance to the narrows, after a series of ill-judged manoeuvres, the Imo struck the Mont Blanc on the bow," said the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. "Although the collision was not severe, fire immediately broke out on the Mont Blanc." Understanding the direct danger, the Mont Blanc crew immediately took to the lifeboats.
The fiery blast was so big that the Mont Blanc was splintered into bits; the barrel of the ship's cannon was launched 3.5 miles away, a portion of the huge, heavy anchor shank became a missile that landed two miles in the opposite direction. The anchor piece weighed over 1,000 lbs. Numerous ships in the bustling area were damaged or destroyed. The shockwaves were felt almost 300 miles away, and windows were broken in a 50-mile radius. The north section of the city of Halifax and part of Dartmouth were demolished, exploded and disintegrated by fire. Everything in its reach was destroyed – churches, schools, businesses and homes.
But most devastating was the injury and loss of life. Rescue efforts began immediately to find the casualties. Almost 4,000 people were injured in the sudden blast, nearly 1,000 people with eye injuries from flying glass. After weeks and months of searching through the rubble, it was determined that almost 2,000 people were dead. Hindering the urgent rescue process was a blizzard the day after the explosion, covering the city in 16 inches of snow.


Why should I hire Eloquence instead of using someone I know?
There's too much at stake and you get what you pay for. The highly sensitive work of translation is a minefield. Your reputation, accuracy and project success are on the line.
You likely hired the person in your office for another job. Pulling them off their regular job just to do translation or interpetation is an unproductive use of manpower.
Eloquence is an asset to your business—we are here to leave you and your staff free to do what your people do best—their own jobs.
Don't embarrass your company by cutting corners. Your reputation–and that of your clients–is irreplaceable. Do the job right. Contact Eloquence first.

Proof of Election Fraud
Late Night Open Thread: Spring
Why I am quitting you, Democrats
By AndyS In Colorado
(noon. – promoted by ek hornbeck)
You are officially the party of the status quo, now. It's time to start recognizing that, and acting like it. And if you want change, then, well, make change. Don't whine about it endlessly, especially if you supported corporatist laws with lies and caveats to begin with. And if you don't want change, stop pretending you do.
The moment of President Obama's election, the Democratic Party became the Party In Power. It ill becomes the Democrats, and their apologists, and supporters, to complain about the very things they helped do and pass, or are, even now, helping do or pass. For example, don't try to sell me on how bad Wall Street has become, if out the back door, you are shoveling money at them as if there's no tomorrow.
Don't like the Tea Partiers? Good. I don't either. So stop talking about them as if they are all powerful bullies, terrorizing you. You're the government now. Grow the fuck up and crush them when and if they become actual domestic terrorists. You supported the means by which to do so. People as supposedly far left as Alan Grayson voted to pass an extension on the Patriot Act .. do you really want me to believe they're so dangerous and you can do nothing? Oh, but you sure can do a lot about actual liberals who do anything but protest like baby kittens.
Let me remind you of a few things, Democrats. It was your conservative corporatist wing that joined with the Republicans and refused to do anything about insane gun laws that have turned the entire 50 state union into some mockery of the Wild Wild West. Yet now, Democrats talk about Tea Partiers having meetings with guns .. this is your fault.
And my anger isn't just limited to old style long time Democrats. Supposedly moderate Republicans abandoned their party and joined the Democrats. Rather than your powerful people, who could have done something, reining in your most wacko elements, used to be moderate Republicans but now apologist Democrats, you instead joined the a different party and continued doing the very things that created the Tea Partiers in the first place.
Moreover, you Bush I style and Gerald Ford style Republicans: You aren't one of my peeps and you never were. If you wear a D after your name now, that doesn't make you one. Back in the day I would have told them to get the hell out of my house. And nothing has changed.
To both of the major American Parties: You are making Americans crazy, fail to educate them, use social issues that should have long since been settled to enrage them, then whine about how crazy some know nothing Americans you helped create are distorting the political process with their rude incivility and actually scaring you, at long last.
Stop them, then stop it.
Start educating the American public sincerely and stop using the educational system as a political football. Stop playing with minority groups and leading them on politically while wrecking their lives over and over again for your political benefit.
That is, if you don't want to be terrorized by ignorant Americans who are foolishly used by you and think that violence will solve problems, instead of simply be bantered about on cable TV. These people could become really dangerous to the extent you coddle them and enable them.
And, by the way, if you want to whine to me about how Tea Partiers bring guns to Obama rallies, it might be a good idea, in addition to not letting them do it, stop treating the lives of entire segments of the population in which I am included several ways, as if their lives are worth little, and using meaningless patronizing terms like "odious" when people want to kill us en-masse.
That might be a good idea, too.
No, I just cannot be a Democrat because I cannot anymore see supporting something, then bitching about that which I myself supported as being non-hypocritical. When you passed a law that was Aetna's and AHIP's wet dream, and threw up a bunch of lies, misrepresentations, and bullshit apologia for how it was the only thing you could do, I said, that's it, I'm done. Because, you see, I cannot possibly argue for this thing, argue against my own sure knowledge that you won't do much to improve it and pretend you will to salve my conscience at the people you left on the road. The people you left on the road not because you had to, not because they deserved it, and not even because it was all that terribly inconvenient to help them. Because it was politically expedient.
Democratic Party, hypocrites, rant

But it's just so appropriate here.

Jesus H. Christ. And you wonder how the gops drive wedge issues. Sheesh.
Got news for you:
The Republicans controlled the Congress for 12 years, the executive branch for eight, and six of those years intersected, during which time they packed the Supreme Court, yet Roe v wade is still law.
Because people want it there.
Same thing with the gun control stupid which leaves only cops and criminals with guns.
If people wanted more gun control, we'd have it.
But they don't, hate to break it to you.
What the fuck do you think cost us the Congress at the beginning of those 12 years I described?
Like the diary title, though. One less idiot gun grabber living in a fantasyland of rainbows and puppies and dragging us down is always a good thing.

for greens this year but never will i vote for a democrat….
and if the dems think O would have been elected without our support they r delusional….
good luck dems and good bye….
something needs to be done to stop the gun smuggling that is going on across our borders. It is creating a havoc there..
TMC on March 26, 2010 at 11:01 pm
about the number of guns an individual can buy without a license. Crack down on sales at gun shows in states that have lax purchasing requirement and allow purchase of multiple weapons. Those are the handguns that end up on the streets where guns laws are tough, like NY.
Also the sale of weapons like AK-47's and other similar assault weapons should be banned for the general public.. The argument that it is a hunting rifle is just hollow, sorry. It is a weapon of war and should not be available for sale to the general public.
I don't want to take guns away from any citizen. We have a right to hunt and protect ourselves, family and property. TE police aren't going to be there until after the crime is committed.
I learned how to hunt from my uncle. I was in the military and I was a police officer. I'm a gun owner and I still have a Federal permit to carry concealed.
theevolutionarysieve on March 26, 2010 at 11:41 pm
I do not suport individuals in their efforts to undermine the dignity of others……
I grew up owning guns…..
hunted most of my life…..
have been considering buying a hunting rifle to do so now….
but when the purpose of a conversation becomes about robbing some one else of their dignity it ends…
righ there….
BobbyK on March 27, 2010 at 1:28 am
about guns and threats in the media is a little bit of theater all around.
The Rhambamabots want to paint the Repugs and Teabaggers as extremists and marginalize their protest over the healthcare 'win'. And the MSM is buying into the narrative because it's makes a sexier story than how sucky the bill actually was.
By making the main story about a bunch of teabagging kooks potentially getting violent, they don't have to pay any attention to the folks who feel betrayed by the Republican Lite actions the Dems have taken.
Personally, I'm pro-gun. Within reason. I'm pro wait list, pro background check etc.
I like to tease my future-in-law's Republican friends and say we should have "Cash for Kalashnikovs" as a stimulus program. I tease them and say "if we would just give everyone a gun, we could save money on police/courts/jail etc."
They don't really understand I'm just kidding. They just look at me kind of confused. It's hilarious.
bigsurtree on March 27, 2010 at 4:41 am
to make sure that ammo could never be in any gun in any public place, kind of making it hard to shoot anyone
jumping into your car at the park. Black Panthers scared Ronnie. Ronnie big tough dude. Big time 2nd Amend. advocate. He and Heston always carry gun in movies and T.V.–
But guns have always been important in U.S. history. Big advantage over the Native Americans. Got us the country on the cheap. Yes, the Cold 45, the gun that won the West.
And what would have Gould and the other Railroad Titans done without the ability to hire armed thugs to break up those union gatherings? But for me, I'm worried about King George III, and that he'll come for my wife and other property. Gotta watch out for that police state. But I'm not so sure how my gun would do against a tank and grenade launcher.
Come to think of it, I want a grenade laucher. How about it Ronnie?
banger on March 27, 2010 at 3:49 pm
I don't have a gun either. Yes, your skills may be more dangerous and helpful. But you have a lot of guns concentrated in certain parts of the country that could, like Afghanistan, virtually secede from the main part of the country right now.

UNFAMILIAR FOLDS OF EXPRESSIONS
Niga Sayyed
Project Statement
The great philosopher, theologian, and Sufi mystic "Rumi" spends his life finding the true meanings of love, hope and happiness, as he knows this is the only way of knowing himself. And once he knows his true identity only than he can establish a connection with the almighty. He says,
"Either give me more wine or leave me alone".
On the surface the meaning seems fairly clear. Granted I have had moments like that in my life, wanting nothing but to be left alone to slosh around in my own self-pity, 'wining' as it were. But when you contemplate the quote further you realize that infects Rumi is in a state of struggle to find who he is. He addresses the world that, intoxicate me with a fine wine if it helps me reach a level where I can find the reality of myself. But if you can't than stay out of my way, as I have nothing to do with you (world) and I am already on my way to find the true identity.
The round lines running in circles around a central point portrays the journey around one's self. Where overall these lines form a thumb impression, which means Identity.

Customer returns are at an all time high: in 2017 around $400 billion in merchandise was returned. The spike in ecommerce is playing a huge role (around 30% of online purchases are sent back), as are increasingly relaxed return policies. The point is, returns are running rampant!
Over the past few years a shift has taken place in how retailers and manufacturers deal with their customer returns. Instead of putting them back on shelves or throwing them away, many are choosing to liquidate them. In fact the amount of customer-returned lots listed across B-Stock's network of liquidation marketplaces (vs. shelf pulls/overstock) has steadily grown over the years.
Given there are more 'customer-returned' lots popping up, and the merchandise is sold as-is, we thought it was important to explain what – as a buyer – you can expect when sourcing this type of inventory.
An auction lot of customer returns means that the items have been previously purchased and potentially handled/used/worn; they may also have been damaged in transit. While some items will appear like new, typically, you can expect signs of use, ranging from light to heavy.
Each of our client marketplaces has a dedicated CONDITIONS section that provides a detailed overview of what you can expect when purchasing customer-returned inventory. The CONDITIONS section is at the bottom of each marketplace page (scroll all the way to the bottom). Additionally, each auction manifest should contain information on the condition of the inventory.
Keep in mind condition codes vary depending on the retailer. For example, the Wayfair Liquidation Auctions marketplace has several Grades for its returned inventory, while Best Buy Liquidation Auctions separates by New Condition, Buyer's Remorse, and Tested Working. Department Store Auctions groups all customer returned merchandise together; the condition and mix of goods will vary in each lot.
Some retailers have begun to separate their customer-returned auction lots based on whether they were purchased online or in-store. Dot Com returns are typically in better condition that in-store returns: often the original packaging is intact or it may be brand new/unopened. There are a few reasons for this including the propensity of a consumer to order two or three styles of the same thing and send back the ones that don't work or the item may have been shipped incorrectly/undelivered. (For more detailed information on all this, please check out our post: Why DOT COM Returns are Worth a Second Look).
Walmart Liquidation Auctions and The Home Depot Liquidation Auctions are two of the marketplaces separating lots into Dot Com versus in-store returns.
Keep in mind, when purchasing customer-returns that have been marked for liquidation there will always be some risk involved. Be sure to familiarize yourself with how each retailer categorizes and groups its customer-returned lots. While each retailer works to provide as detailed an item manifest as possible, it's important to do your due diligence.
