Christian parties at loggerheads over Lebanon cabinet formation
News RSS feed June 1, 2018
Aoun gets to name two cabinet ministers in his capacity as both president and party chief
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea (left) with Lebanese President and FPM chief Michel Aoun.
Damascus: Less than one month after parliamentary elections were held, a simmering crisis is underway within the Christian community of Lebanon, between the Lebanese Forces (LF) of Samir Geagea and the Free Patriotic Movement (FPM) of President Michel Aoun, headed presently by his son-in-law, Foreign Minister Jibran Bassil.
For decades, the president of the republic was entitled to name one minister in any government formation, accepted by all parties as his "share" of the cabinet.
This time, however, Aoun, in his capacity as both president of the country and president of the FPM bloc, gets to name two ministers which would greatly exaggerate his influence over the cabinet at the expense of the Lebanese Forces.
In the current caretaker cabinet, the FPM hold eight portfolios: defence, foreign, environment, justice, presidential affairs, combating corruption, economy and energy.
Geagea supporters have only three: deputy prime minister, information and social affairs.
Although the Lebanese Forces made gains in Lebanon's parliamentary elections held earlier this month grabbing 15 parliamentary seats (up from eight), the FPM still holds 10 more seats than they do.
Foreign Minister Jibran Bassil, who also happens to be Aoun's son-in-law, wants to keep the party's eight portfolios and get one seat from LF as he cannot get seats reserved for Lebanese Prime Minister Sa'ad Hariri's Future Movement.
By tradition and gentleman agreement, the division of power is very delicate in Lebanon, with certain posts traditionally in the hands of certain sects.
The Sunnis have held the premiership since 1943 and several posts affiliated with it, like the Ministry of Interior.
Likewise Shiites get the speakership of parliament, and for nearly 30 years, they have also handled the ministry of finance, making it impossible for the seat to go to anyone else.
For now both Hezbollah and the Future Movement are standing at a distance from the dispute — viewing it as an internal Christian matter that should be settled between the two parties.
Commenting on the issue, Hilal Khashan, a veteran professor of political science at the American University of Beirut, tells Gulf News: "It is actually Jibran Basil who is insisting on getting six seats for the FPM and four seats for Aoun. He appears to be grooming himself to succeed Aoun and his goal is to evict the Lebanese Forces from the political scene and to monopolise the Christian representation."
He went on to explain that the presidential allocation of a cabinet seat happened during Michel Sulaiman's tenure as president from 2008-20014. The decision was taken as a way to assure that the March 8 coalition would have veto power.
This is because, at the time, Shiite parties Hezbollah and Amal held a third of the cabinet seats, and in order to veto they needed one-third plus one cabinet votes.
"Bassil is acting tough because he wants to create a new political reality. This intransigence can only delay the formation of the cabinet given it cannot be formed without accommodating the LF."

Small Meat & Poultry Plant Talks Set
By Dan Flynn on October 22, 2009
Meat and poultry producers from the 27 states that operate their own inspection services for meat and poultry processed by small plants whose sales are strictly intrastate get chances on Oct. 27 and Nov. 5 to advocate for cross-border sales.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to conduct teleconferences from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. on each of those dates on its proposed regulation to allow State-inspected establishments with 25 or fewer employees to be eligible to ship meat and poultry in interstate commerce.
Opening interstate sales of meat and poultry from small state-inspected plants was called for in the 2008 Farm Bill and the change is now a component of USDA's "Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food" campaign to promote local and regional food markets.
"Restoring the link between consumers and local producers will not only open new income opportunities for small farmers and generate wealth that will stay in rural communities, it will also expand access to healthy, fresh, and locally produced food," said USDA Deputy Secretary Kathleen Merrigan. "These meetings will help ensure that the proposed regulations successfully open doors for small meat and poultry establishments to provide safe products to their communities."
Currently, USDA's Food Safety & Inspection Service (FSIS) must inspect domestic meat and poultry before it can enter interstate commerce. Foreign meat and poultry can be sold in the U.S. from countries whose inspection schemes are equivalent or greater than those of FSIS.
USDA has published new regulations in the Federal Register that could make those state-inspected plants eligible to ship meat and poultry in interstate commerce.
Small plants whose products are inspected under state inspection programs that are "at least equal to" those imposed under the Federal meat and poultry inspection acts will be eligible introduce their products into interstate commerce.
For inspection programs that qualify, FSIS will provide up to 50 percent of the state's operating funds and USDA will provide oversight and enforcement. USDA will also provide training and supervision for the state programs. In exchange, the meat and poultry products from these state-inspected small plants will be eligible to carry the USDA mark of inspection to make interstate shipment legal.
State-inspected plants with more than 25 employees and those not selected for the program will continue to be limited to in-state sales only.
States inspect 1,976 facilities, consisting of mostly small, family-owned meat processors. The state-inspected facilities provide services to smaller scale farms and those with niche markets such as grass-fed beef or pasture-raised pork. More than half of the small plants are located in the 11 upper Midwest states.
Pre-registration is required to participate in these meetings. Information about the meetings, including how to register and the agenda will be made available for viewing on the FSIS web site. Call-in information will be provided via e-mail to pre-registered participants.
Comments on this voluntary cooperative program may also be submitted on or before November 16, 2009, using either the Federal eRulemaking Portal, or by mail. Send any mail to Docket Clerk, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service, Room 2-2127 George Washington Carver Center, 5601 Sunnyside Avenue, Beltsville, MD 20705, MAILSTOP 5272. All comments must identify FSIS and the docket number FSIS-2008-0027.
For further information contact Philip Derfler, Assistant Administrator, Office of Policy and Program Development, at (202) 720-2709, or by fax at (202) 720-2025.

As a fellow in CIT's Flexible Learning Spaces Fellowship (2008), Deb Reisinger participated in meetings, mini-workshops, and other fellowship activities centered around the concept of 'flexible learning' – specifically focused on the uses of the technology and space arrangements made possible by Duke's new teaching and learning space, the Link.
Students created wikis to house assignments over the course of the semester. The flexible learning spaces allowed students to work collaboratively on editing these assignments during class breakout sessions.
The classroom space, combined with on-site technology check-out and support, allowed students to receive training in their classroom, rather than in a language lab. Using technology became more fluid and integrated into course pedagogy.
Student presentations were enhanced by easier student access to technology (video, on-site computer), which is often stalled by technological difficulties.
Reisinger used the learning spaces to show video and project images in addition to writing on the whiteboards. Students were able to use projectors to display follow-up to group work from multiple laptops.
Multiple whiteboards made classroom learning more student-centered. Groups were better able to better demonstrate their analysis by mapping out and displaying their work on the whiteboards.
Reisinger discovered that a large benefit of teaching in the Link came from the flexibility offered by the ability to bring technology in and out of the classroom as needs be.

A photograph of two unidentified women sitting on opposite sides by a table, gazing at each other. The woman on the right is clutching a scrolled booklet in her hand. This, at least in my eyes, breaks the harmony of this otherwise so peaceful photograph. It adds tension to the image that makes me wonder if she's angry at the other woman – quite possibly she wasn't, and the impression is merely caused by my lack of skills at recognizing the emotions of others.
The photograph has been taken by Axel Strandberg in Helsinki, Finland, sometime after the year 1900.

"How I Met Your Mother" Star Cobie Smulders Meets Her New Apartment
By Erin Lem

Receive the latest open-house updates in your inbox
Cobie Smulders of How I Met Your Mother fame and her hubby Taran Killam of Saturday Night Live recently snatched up a Manhattan condo unit, according to the New York Observer. The funny duo bought a swanky apartment unit at 2 River Terrace in the Battery Park City, following in the A-lister footsteps of Leonardo DiCaprio and Tyra Banks who also own in the celeb-friendly building.
The unit, which set the couple back $2 million, spans 1,580 square feet and boasts three bedrooms and three baths, which is the perfect amount of space for Smulders, Killam, and their two-year-old daughter, Shaelyn Cado Killam. High-end amenities of this Battery Park City home include a 190-square-foot master suite, a master bath with radiant floor heating, and a soaking tub and separate shower.
Killam and Smulders (she plays Robin Scherbatsky on the hit CBS sitcom) can enjoy luxury living at their new apartment and also know they're doing a bit to help out the environment. The high-end building is eco-friendly, meaning that the building is made of environmentally responsible materials. But just because the building is green doesn't mean that the couple will be missing out on all the luxuries expected when shelling out $2 million. The building includes a yoga studio, 50-foot lap pool, kids playroom, 24-hour concierge service, and free bike storage.
Green living and first-class luxury? We're sold.

Students rarely develop school-prompted interests in science in ways that lead to out-of-school engagement. Existing research has highlighted that positive science identities foster this out-of-school engagement. We have been investigating a form of out-of-school engagement called transformative experiences–a construct that characterizes moments where students engage in free-choice transfer of science concepts to everyday settings in ways they find meaningful. Based on interviews conducted with undergraduate students who had indicated deep out-of-school engagement based on a transformative experience survey, we compare and contrast three cases that illustrate a broader spectrum of factors that may contribute to students' engagement outside of class. While our analysis corroborates previous findings concerning the role that science identity can play, our analysis sheds new light on ways in which topical interest and classroom dynamics can also foster transformative experiences.

Die Antwoord to appear on US chat show
Die Antwoord will perform on the United States television talk show, The Late Show with David Letterman, on Monday night.
The programme will be shown on South African television in the coming weeks, Die Burger newspaper reported on Monday.
The band will share the show with former Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Sarah Michelle Gellar. It will be the group's first appearance on the programme.
The group will introduce its new album Ten$ion on the show.
The group's latest video for the single I Fink U Freeky, directed by award-winning South African photographer Roger Ballen, was recently released.
International appeal
'It's difficult to say why Americans like us so much," said Ninja, the band's frontman and the alter ego of Watkin Tudor Jones.
One of the things that made American audiences so different from local audiences, he said, was that they did not understand Afrikaans swear words. He would say what he wanted on the Letterman show and the viewers wouldn't understand.
According to Die Burger, Die Antwoord fever was running high in the US with Ninja and fellow band member Yo-Landi Vi$$er the faces of fashion designer Alexander Wang's new range. Huge billboards of the two had been erected in New York. — Sapa

The past week has been unseasonably hot for Sweden - around 30 C / 90 F and super sunny. It's fantastic! But it does sap your energy a bit, so I've been trying to slow down and take it easy. Lucky for me, I received a treat in the mail which kept me busy for a while!
I love summer reading! I recently bought a couple of back issues of Embroidery Magazine, published by the Embroiderers' Guild in the UK. I have been thinking a lot about embroidery lately, and I thought some reading could help jump-start my creativity. And this is not your grandma's embroidery either, every page is a work of art!
I especially loved this piece about artist Louise Gardiner, who makes impossibly intricate thread paintings using both hand and machine embroidery. The article totally made me want to dig out the free-motion foot for my own machine and get going!
Along with the magazines I'm spending a lot of time browsing and reading e-books on our tablet. I'm half-way through Countrymen by Bo Lidegaard - a great read if you are a history buff like me - and then I'll be starting on I am Malala which I am reading for my women's rights book club.
My head is shock full of inspiration! What are you reading these days?

It was the high integrity investigative research of J. Marvin Herndon, Ph.D. which confirmed that the very same toxic coal fly ash captured in the smokestacks of coal-fired power plants is used to generate immense chem-cloud cover across the planet. In his landmark, peer-reviewed, scientific research paper recently published at the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health he confirmed that coal fly ash is a primary constituent used in the chemical engineering formulas which are utilized to produce chemtrails.
Animal life is also being greatly harmed by the incessant exposure to atmospheric and waterborne aluminum. Birds, in particular, are now highly vulnerable as they fly through chem-clouds and low-hanging chemtrailed air on a regular basis. Their delicate lungs and upper respiratory systems are being overwhelmed by all of the toxic pollutants being delivered by chemtrails. Likewise, the land-dwelling animals are susceptible to the contaminated water and food supply as the toxicities bio-accumulate up the food chain.


Bryan Hunt said there are some points that must be overcome to improve the business environment, such as competitiveness, corruption and national security.
The 12th US-Africa business summit is scheduled for 18-21 June, with the Mozambican capital, Maputo, hosting the event, which is an opportunity for the Mozambican government to put the country on the African investment map.
"Mozambique is not Africa's largest market, nor is it the most populous nor the fastest growing, so it has to be among the most competitive in order to succeed in transforming the potential that the summit offers in visible results for the Mozambican and American people," said US embassy's business attache, quoted by the Mozambican press.
Therefore, Hunt said, the Mozambican government and the private sector should launch sufficient reforms over the next six months to position themselves as a competitive and emerging investment destination ahead of the June summit.
The US official acknowledged that the progress that Mozambique has made in ending the long-running conflict between Frelimo and Renamo is "impressive," but pointed out that American investors want more.

To adults, a lock-and-key toy may not mean much. However, toddlers will have a big fascination with them. Many kids find them fascinating because of the cause and effect features. It's exciting to use a key and see that it unlocks something else!
Parents can love these toys too, because many teach colors, numbers, and letters. Kids may not even realize it, but when they start being able to distinguish between red and blue and can point out different letters of the alphabet, the light bulb goes off.

Hopes for the Rose Bowl were diminished today for Oregon State.
(CORVALLIS, Ore.) - It was a quack attack. The OSU Beavers were pounded by the Oregon Ducks during the Civil War game today, with a final score of 65-38. The game now represents the most points scored on the Beavers in their history.
This doesn't fit with the Beavers hopes of earning a win that would have advanced them to the Rose Bowl.
Oregon State's defense just couldn't find the right moves to counter the attack from the Ducks, and it meant Oregon State would not see their third consecutive Civil War win.
Little hope was left at the end of the second half; when the Ducks scored 14 points in a short window of time, and suddenly shot up 27 points.
Oregon State's offense experienced problems managing the red zone early and simply did not cash in enough on scoring opportunities when they had them.
The Beavers were trailing by 14 points as they entered the fourth quarter, then they suffered another setback and suddenly they were looking at an unlikely 21-point comeback. It didn't happen.
Oregon remained strong and scored a few more first downs, then came another long touchdown pass and run, followed by an interception return to close out the game.

Check in on your investment.Congratulations, you own a part of Allbirds.
The Guidance Cut Is Balanced By Cheaper Valuation
Now, while it's true that Allbirds has reset expectations in its guidance, the stock's bargain-basement valuation now also compensates for that added risk. At current share prices near $4, Allbirds trades at a market cap of just $645 million. And after we net off the $240 million of cash on the company's most recent balance sheet, Allbirds' resulting enterprise value is actually only $405 million.
Allbirds FY22 outlook
For the current fiscal year FY22, Allbirds has guided to $335-$345 million in revenue, or 23% y/y growth – which represents a substantial cut versus 30% y/y growth in its original FY22 outlook.
Allbirds noted that while sales in the U.S. have held up strongly, COVID conditions have caused a drag on its European and Chinese businesses. Per CEO Joey Zwillinger's prepared remarks on the Q1 earnings call:
As noted above, the company does believe the international headwinds are temporary, though we won't take this at face value until we see international growth rates begin to lift from roughly flat y/y growth this quarter.
Against the $340 million midpoint of Allbirds' latest revenue guidance, the stock trades at just 1.2x EV/FY22 revenue.
In my view, that's plenty enough of a discount to justify buying Allbirds despite the added risk.

Allbirds stock down after reporting Q3 earnings
Allbirds sees its physical stores as an essential counterpart to its digital offerings. Thus far, it has opened 27 bricks-and-mortar locations and plans hundreds more. It is particularly keen to branch further into international locations.
Allbirds have been dubbed the worlds most comfortable shoe, but its now extended its offerings to include t-shirts, leggings, shorts, underwear, and socks. It intends to keep innovating and has more products in the pipeline.
We have many solutions presently in development that will enable our consumers to better connect with nature by empowering them to explore and appreciate the great outdoors.
If Allbirds can keep pace at 27% growth rate, it could enjoy revenue of $300m in the coming year. It reportedly raised $100m in a Series E funding round in 2020, giving it a $1.7bn valuation.
In the cut-throat world of fashion, the Allbirds story is a great one. It could continue to go from strength to strength but its lack of profitability makes this a risky growth stock.

The Bear Case For Allbirds:
It operates in a highly competitive environment with a limited range of products. Its ability to develop its range will be a crucial factor in whether it can grow considerably. Companies with large cash reserves could encroach on its unique selling points with Nike already launching a low carbon footprint range and staying ahead of larger players with new offerings will be an arduous task.
In addition, the company is unprofitable and reported a net loss which almost doubled YoY to $13.8 million in Q3. The company is likely to be unprofitable for some time due to its heavy spending on marketing and research, and development to drive sales and product creation.

What Is The Best Detergent For Washing Allbirds
There is no definitive answer to this question, as it completely depends on the soil level and your preferences. However, some general tips can be useful. When washing Allbirds, it is important to use a gentle detergent that will not damage the material. You may also want to pre-soak the shoes in warm water for a few minutes before washing them.
The Challenges Of Staying Sustainable
Some analysts noted the challenge of keeping that sustainability crown in a highly competitive sneaker and apparel market, especially as the company starts to compete more in the performance space.
"There is a threat from larger incumbent players such as Nike & Adidas investing heavily in similar natural & sustainable materials commercialization capabilities, noting BIRD does not maintain patents on the materials or design, which could impact Allbirds' competitive positioning," Baird analysts wrote.
In 2020, Allbirds and Adidas partnered to create performance running shoes that have no carbon footprint. Approximately 10,000 pairs have been released so far, with a larger release planned for the spring/summer season in 2022.
Allbirds launched its first running shoe, the Tree Dasher, in 2020, and released a running apparel collection this summer.
"Allbirds is making a concerted effort to expand into performance athletic and apparel," Telsey Advisory Group analysts wrote. "The athletic footwear industry is competitive with well-established players Nike and Adidas having a significant share of the market at 39% and 19%, respectively, in 2020. In addition, there are a number of fast-growing brands, including On and Hoka, catering to a similar consumer as Allbirds."
There also comes the challenge of maintaining that commitment to ESG practices.
Stifel also pointed out the reputation risk when it comes to ESG practices.

Allbirds also hopes to grow by appealing to a new generation of consumers concerned about climate change that are shifting their shopping habits.
In Allbirds IPO filing, the company noted that its stores became disrupted by the effects of the pandemic. As of June 2021, the company has 27 stores across the globe. The company expects to grow with the increase of fleet operations
With strong pre-COVID-19 unit economics, our store operations have historically been capital efficient and provided strong investment returns. We are in the early phase of a ramp towards hundreds of potential locations in the future, with strong unit economics.

Based on our stores pre-COVID-19 performance, we believe our new stores will also be highly profitable, have attractive payback periods, serve as good capital investments, and be positioned well to take advantage of physical retails recovery from the pandemic.

Should You Buy Allbirds Stock
Allbirds falls on the super-transparent end of the spectrum as far as consumer goods are concerned. It openly measures the material, transportation, and other factors involved in emitting carbon.
It's backed by big-time celebrities, driving the brand further into the public psyche. And it has the receipts to show it's not all talk.
The company donates all returned shoes to Soles4Soles, which then sends them to provide shoes to people in impoverished countries.

That means banks will be interested in companies like Allbirds – that is, if Allbirds can put its money where its mouth is.

Plastic Bottle Recycling Strong Despite Challenges
Pounds, Rate Largely Remain Steady in 2018
Contact: Steve Alexander (202) 316-3046
Email: steve@plasticsrecycling.org
Contact: Sarah Lindsay (202) 249-6739
Email: sarah_lindsay@americanchemistry.com
WASHINGTON (December 18, 2019)—The domestic collection of plastic bottles for recycling rose 52 million pounds, or 1.8 percent, to reach nearly 2.9 billion pounds in 2018. At the same time, there was little change in the overall recycling rate for plastic bottles, with a slight decline of 0.4 percent from the prior year, according to figures released jointly today by the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) and the American Chemistry Council (ACC).
The 29th annual National Postconsumer Plastic Bottle Recycling Report indicates the overall recycling rate for plastic bottles in 2018 was 28.9 percent, and the five-year compounded annual growth rate for plastic bottle recycling remains relatively steady, falling just 0.4 percent.
The report also shows that the overwhelming majority of plastic bottles collected for recycling is processed domestically, as exports of postconsumer plastic bottles declined. In 2018, 90 percent of total plastic bottles collected for recycling in the United States were processed domestically. Less than 8 percent of PET bottles and less than 14 percent of HDPE bottles collected domestically were processed outside of the country, with less than half of exports leaving North America.
Domestic capacity utilization for both PET and HDPE rose in 2018. PET reclaimer plant capacity utilization rose to 80 percent with HDPE climbing to 73 percent.
"Plastics recycling is a vibrant, resilient industry that continues to remain strong in a challenging environment," said Steve Alexander, president of APR. "Despite the reduction in export markets, demand for quality recycled material remains robust, and many recyclers are investing in updating and expanding our domestic infrastructure to meet that demand."
"Brand owners have made public commitments to use significantly more recycled content in their products and packages in the months ahead," added Steve Russell, vice president of ACC's Plastics Division. "And manufacturers across the value chain are creating more circular business models for using—and reusing—plastics. It is therefore increasingly important to get as much of the right plastics into the recycling bin as possible."
The per capita consumption of plastic bottles has been steady for the past six years. Together, PET and HDPE bottles make up 97.1 percent of the U.S. market for plastic bottles with PP comprising 1.8 percent, LDPE 0.7 percent and PVC 0.3 percent. Together, PET and HDPE comprise 98.9 percent of bottles recycled with PP comprising 1.1 percent.
The 2018 United States National Postconsumer Plastic Bottle Recycling Report is based on a survey of reclaimers conducted by More Recycling, formerly Moore Recycling.
