United Nations Essay Contest (Many Languages, One World) - Sponsored Trip to Boston and New York -- DEADLINE EXTENDED!
The United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) and ELS Educational Services Inc. (ELS) organizes an international essay-writing contest for college and university students on the role of multilingualism in a globalized world.
Under the overall theme of "Many languages — One world", students are asked to write an essay in which they are to discuss and debate the value of multilingualism in the broader context of global citizenship — one of the core principles of the United Nations Academic Impact.
The contest is open to students 18 years or older by contest deadline, and enrolled in a college or university anywhere in the world.
Each submission must be accompanied by a certification from a competent institutional authority (Faculty Member or University Representative) attesting that the conditions of the contest have been met and that the entry is the original, unaided work of the participant.
An original essay discussing global citizenship and cultural understanding and the role that multilingual ability can play in fostering these. The essay should reflect the student's personal, academic, cultural and national context.
You will need to demonstrate both written and verbal competency in the language of the essay.
Essays must be written in an official language of the UN that is not your first language or primary language of instruction during your primary or secondary education. The official UN languages are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.
Essays must be under 2000 words, excluding citations and bibliography, if any.
Essays must present, in a clear and concise form, arguments for — or against — the importance of multilingualism. In today's globalized world, there is growing emphasis on learning multiple languages. The UN, as the world's premier universal organization, promotes the use of six official languages, and issues all official documents simultaneously in these. Students should examine why the emphasis on linguistic diversity contributes — or does not — to creating a more harmonious world.
Students are encouraged to research the topic using web and non-web materials. When quoting directly, original sources must be cited.
Winners will be invited to an all-expense paid trip to Boston and New York to participate in a series of events during the week of July 15-26, 2017. These events will include a Global Youth Forum, at which the students will create action plans addressing selected topics from the Sustainable Development Agenda, and will present their views at United Nations Headquarters in New York City. These international delegates will also have the opportunity to interact with invited international scholars and tour Boston and New York City.
ELS will pay for roundtrip economy class airfares in carriers of its choosing between the airport nearest to the Winners' home city and New York, and be responsible for the Winners' travel, room and meals for the duration of the conference (6-7 days).
Sightseeing and tourism opportunities will be arranged by ELS. No extensions of stay or early arrivals will be possible.
Winners are responsible for all documentation relating to their journey, including passports and visas and the costs related to these, as well as appropriate medical insurance for their journey and temporary stay in the United States. ELS will provide each winning student with a basic travel and accident insurance policy, for which the premium will be paid by ELS.
Write your essay according to the contest rules and eligibility guidelines. Share your essay with the University Faculty Member or Authorized Representative who recommended you so that s/he can attest to the fact that you have followed the contest rules; and have him/her complete and submit the "Faculty Member/University Administrator Reference Form" in support of your participation in the contest. Thereafter, s/he will receive an email from Many Languages, One World requesting confirmation of the reference. Once the "Reference Form" has been received and confirmed by Many Languages, One World, you (the student) will receive an email with further information, and a link where you can complete your Student Entry Form and upload your essay to the contest website.
The essay must be submitted/uploaded in MS WORD format. Please title your essay as follows: LastName_FirstName-LanguageofEssay (ie, Smith_Jane-Arabic). Do not include a cover page with personal information, as the essays will be evaluated anonymously.
Do not wait until the deadline date to submit your essay. Give yourself time to ensure that your essay will be received successfully.
The United Nations (UN) is an intergovernmental organisation created in 1945 to promote international cooperation. A replacement for the ineffective League of Nations, the organisation was created following World War II to prevent another such conflict. At its founding, the UN had 51 member states; there are now 193. The UN Headquarters resides in international territory in New York City, with further main offices in Geneva, Nairobi, and Vienna.

The steel was procured by Sinn from a steel supplier to Emden GmbH, one of Germanys North Sea shipbuilding yards who construct submarines from the very same steel. This special steel is also amagnetic which means that is does not have magnetic properties and cannot itself become magnetized. The watch movement itself is protected from magnetic fields up to 4,800 A/m.
This watch is designed for operation in extreme temperature variations - it operates in temperatures between -20 Celsius to +60 Celsius. The movement is water resistant to 5,000 meters, and the case is pressure tested to a diving depth of 12,000 meters as certified by Germanischer Lloyd in Hamburg.
"A Flieger Watch in Disguise?"
Verified Owner Comments: First comment: when the watch arrives and you take it out of the box, does it cast the same spell over you at that moment as it did when you saw it at the website?
Second comment: A week later, in spare moments, do you still find yourself staring at this beautiful piece of craftsmanship and grinning uncontrollably?
Third comment: After a month, does a glance at this beautiful piece of craftsmanship still bring a smile to your lips? If so, odds are, you purchased a Sinn UX EZM 2 B GSG9 from WatchBuys.
Oh...about the Flieger reference? Flieger watches are my preference, but over the years, I noticed that most seem designed in the black background-light colored numbers style on the rotating bezel. In contrast, similar divers-style watches use the darker numbers on a lighter background approach and to me this keeps the information on the bezel from distracting from the beauty of the dial work. Just personal preference.
Verified Owner Comments: After a visit to Sinn factory in Frankfurt last year, I had to have this watch.
Great for one-up when comparing seck diver watches, but not something I'd dive with. After all, who needs a watch that will work at 5,000 meters anyway?
Verified Owner Comments: Tough solidity, super accuracy, excellent readability and practicality - the main essential features of a good diver's watch.
Sinn UX GSG9 truly delivers or to certain extend exceeding. Not only you get this fine timepiece at a very reasonable price, you will also get superb CS from WatchBuys.
This is hard to beat.
Verified Owner Comments: This is the strongest watch I ever had.
So reliable and so strong, it's amazing,... I have been looking for this type of watch for a long time.
Verified Owner Comments: Although it has a relatively large case compared to many other upscale watches, this watch is not quite as flashy. Yet, its appearance is sophisticated and very well-rounded. Nothing appears to be out of place on this timepiece.
It has a very solid appearance and very high level of build quality. It is the most accurate timekeeping device I know of besides something consistently in sync with a time server/atomic signal.
Verified Owner Comments: Totally in love the EZM series, and the UX GSG9 version is simply a must have.
The next logical step to the EZM2 GSG9 version.
"SINN UX (GSG9) Rubber Strap"
Verified Owner Comments: This is one of the most impressive timepiece i have in my collection so far in terms of technology.
Built quality is first class. Very solid. This is the only quartz movement i have in my collections (2 APRO, 3 APROO, PP, GP, 2 ROLEX GMT, EXP I, EXP II, YMaster, Datejust, 2 DayDate and etc)..
At this price, this is for sure one of the best buy. I highly recommend it!


I know from my own educational experience that teachers differ in quality and that a good teacher improves the life prospects of his or her students, and that, as Becker says, usually it's easy to distinguish good from bad teachers ex ante, that is, before the actual impact of the teachers on their students' lives can be assessed. Everyone knows all this; the question is what to do with this knowledge in order to improve life prospects.
At the risk of sounding retrograde and unimaginative, I suggest that the only worthwhile reforms of teacher compensation are raising teacher wages uniformly, providing recognition and modest bonuses for outstanding teachers, and increasing hiring standards. The first two suggested reforms are essential because without them the third will have little or no effect on teacher quality. Per-pupil costs in American schools are high by international standards, it is true, seemingly without much to show for the high costs; but teacher salaries have to be raised in order to attract more good teachers because American women today have so much better alternative job opportunities than they used to have.
I don't think varying salaries on the basis of measures of teacher quality are a feasible reform. My reasons for this pessimistic judgment are several. First, teaching below the college level tends not to be attractive to competitive people. I happen to have a job, as a federal court of appeals judge, in which everyone is securely tenured and paid the same salary, even though the judges vary in ability, experience, and effort. There are many jobs of that sort, they have their pluses and their minuses, and it would be a mistake to think that all such jobs would be performed better if they were restructured along the Darwinian lines that prevail in business. It's a mistake to think that everyone is a natural risk taker. Tenure, a wage that varies with seniority rather than measured output, and long summer vacations create a compensation package that is attractive to a certain kind of person.
Second, while in a sample of millions, as in the study by Chetty et al. that Becker cites, it may well be inferrable, as the study finds, that teachers vary in the value they add to their students, within an individual school such an inference will be very difficult to draw. The average IQ and home environment of students in different classes may differ significantly, random factors may affect their future success, and there can be spillover effects from other classes. Suppose for example that a mediocre teacher teaches English, and a superb teacher teaches the same students history. Both teachers require essays. The superb teacher improves the students' writing skills, and that in turn improves their performance in their English class, making the English teacher look better than he or she really is.
Third, and related, varying teachers' salaries by some output measure will induce all sorts of wasteful strategizing—office politics—what organization economists call "influence activities," an aspect of agency costs—by teachers hoping to get a good quality rating. They will angle to get the best students assigned to their classes, even when salary is tied to "value added," as discussed by Becker, because smarter students are likely to improve more.
Fourth, although in principle the cost of higher salaries for the better teachers could be offset by reducing the salaries of the worse teachers, that is surely infeasible; so the Darwinian approach would cost more than the existing system, and maybe as much more as raising teacher salaries by a uniform percentage.
Finally, I am not clear what we should think the problem of American education (below the college level) is. Most children of middle-class (say upper quartile of households, income starting at $80,000) Americans are white or Asian and attend good public or private schools, usually predominantly white. The average white IQ is of course 100 and the Asian (like the Jewish) almost one standard deviation higher, that is, 115. The average black IQ is 85, a full standard deviation below the white average, and the average Hispanic IQ has been estimated recently at 89. Black children in particular often come from disordered households, which has a negative effect on ability to learn and perhaps indeed on IQ (which is only partly hereditary) as well. Increasingly, black and Hispanic students find themselves in schools with few white or Asian students. The challenge to American education is to provide a useful education to the large number of Americans who are unlikely to benefit from a college education or from high school courses aimed at preparing students for college. The need is for a different curriculum and for a greater investment in these children's preschool environment. We should recognize that we have different populations with different schooling needs and that curricula and teaching methods should be revised accordingly. This recognition and response should precede tinkering with compensations systems.
As for the "Strike" by the C.T.U., it's was just part and parcel of the Collective Bargaining Process. No big deal here.
Fascinating blog. I think the problem with pre-college education is 70-80% related to the students' home environment, and only 20-30% related to bad teaching, which is why I am skeptical of performance-based payment schemes as an adequate solution.
The challenge for policymakers is how to make success in school something appealing for students, rather than a burden that they must carry in order to succeed later in life. The current system seems to assume that kids with rich and poor backgrounds respond equally well to improvements in teaching, which they certainly do not.
Kids with privileged backgrounds (i.e. high IQs, peaceful neighborhoods, caring parents, etc.) are likely to thrive in a system that rewards the teachers that improve their average standardized test scores, since - as Posner mentions - they are "likely to improve more", and their peers are more likely to have a positive effect on them. Kids with poor backgrounds need some extra motivation to make the best of the school experience, since their environment often offers them alternative (easier) ways to improve their "social status". In the best of cases, they are lured into the arts or sports, in the worst they resort to crime.
Hence, perhaps we should consider giving "merit pay" to students rather than teachers? It may even improve their home environment, and make their parents more interested in their child's education.
Thank you for the thoughtful post, particularly the concerns about gaming any possible rating system.
" . . . teacher salaries have to be raised in order to attract more good teachers because American women today have so much better alternative job opportunities than they used to have. "
I am amazed that so few experts mention this simple, wonderful, important fact.
Welcome back - thoughtful posts, thoughtful comments.
Objectively, probably everyone who reads this blog sat through 12 years of classes led by someone with less intelligence than you have. We are not the most in touch with the problem, as we did not suffer from the need to fix our own formal education.
Basic education is a commodity, perhaps valuable but not in short supply, and available through lots of different vendors, including the delightful Khan Academy. I think the market is well suited to deliver this product efficiently, and while it is important enough that we should collectively pay for those who cannot afford it to still get it, there is no reason teachers should be government employees. Our taxes provide food to people who can't afford to feed themselves, but we have not nationalized the farms where the food is grown, nor the stores whence it gets delivered to welfare recipients.
We want everyone to possess the fact base. I am willing to assume that any 21-year-old with a bachelor's degree has the enough of the fact base to teach a room full of 5-year-olds. However, the ability to impart the fact base into another person is distinct from the mere possession of the fact base, and allegedly consists of some nebulous brew of skill and salesmanship, which makes one teacher "better" than another. The conventional wisdom says that a good teacher can present the material in a compelling way, make learning fun, stimulate students' interest, improve their self-image, make them realize that they actually can learn, set a good example, show them that someone cares about them, and a bunch of other soft benefits, whereas a bad teacher just shows up and goes through the motions.
The crux of this discussion is to what degree good teaching produces good results, or to what degree the other factors can thwart good teaching. The teachers say we're all fantastic at this but the students' home life is so bad it undermines everything we give them; the parents say our children can't learn because we have unskilled slackers presenting the material. I suspect that there are those students who will do well regardless, and there are those who will do poorly regardless, but there is probably a set of students for whom the right teacher will make a difference, however muted by the negative factors, and this net positive will shine through in the data somewhere. We are obviously committed as a society to continuing to look for it. I again suggest that market forces would be perfectly adept at finding it, and at the least cost.
The value system of many teachers is typically against merit pay and there is nothing wrong with that. However, what many people fail to realize is that teachers salaries can vary substantially based on the resources in a local community and the way the salaries are structured in a state. In my state, we pay teachers the most in the communities with the highest income and tax base and the students who are most likely to have a stable home structure and require less work. Starting pay does need to come up but in most areas, the average pay is on par with the average for comparable occupations. The problem is that the union members with the most power also have the most seniority, and so the increases over time are more substantial than they need to be. If we increase starting pay, then we need to lower the annual increases, or allow teachers to reach maximum pay at an earlier point of seniority, and right now we cannot get widespread agreement with those changes.
I am a middle-class parent with two kids in public school, one who learns fairly easily and one who struggles. After my son received poor grades in math for the first half of the year, we hired a tutor at a large expense to work with him one-on-one for the rest of the year. He received an A in the class; however, he then failed the annual assessment. We did everything possible to work to succeed, and these resources are not available to a lot of families.
I will argue that the biggest problem facing public education is the lack of ability to let go of poor performers. There is no shortage of applicants, which is counter to the argument that we need to raise salaries at all. But we put the needs of the adults ahead of the needs of the children when we don't allow, encourage, or require a school to lay off a teacher who isn't performing. Make the evaluation a 360 degree process, and find out who isn't up to the job based on what parents, students, and other teachers think, in addition to the administration. It's not fair to the other teachers to have to make up lost ground for a teacher who didn't make progress with the students, and it's morally unjustifiable to make students suffer in their education with a teacher who shouldn't be there.
1) Students rate their teachers.
2) Weight each student's input by how well the student improves in testing of overall knowledge relative to peers.
When a student has done better, which teacher's are given the credit? A teacher may have motivated a student to do better, improving that student's scores in areas not in that teacher's subject area. Who has had a band director or coach inspire them?
"Peers" needs to include students at the same score start value. This prevents advancing teachers who are only adept at improving already good students. A teacher now has motivation to maximize improvement in any student in any subject matter.
There is less motivation to "teach to the test". Turning your students into automatons that can fill in the right bubbles gets you nowhere - they will be bored to tears and rate you personae non gratae.
Further observe scores over time and match performance back to teachers in the past. Teaching good essay writing in late grade school may not appear on standardized tests, but may show measurable benefit in early college.
The biggest known unknown is how the student ratings underlying this can still be abused or distorted. If we cannot solve that, I'm with Posner.
I'm curious where Posner got his figures on the average Asian IQ. Every study I've read places the IQ of East Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) to be somewhere between 103 and 107. I've never heard of them having an average IQ of 115.
"The average white IQ is of course 100 and the Asian (like the Jewish) almost one standard deviation higher, that is, 115. The average black IQ is 85, a full standard deviation below the white average, and the average Hispanic IQ has been estimated recently at 89. Black children in particular often come from disordered households, which has a negative effect on ability to learn and perhaps indeed on IQ (which is only partly hereditary) as well. Increasingly, black and Hispanic students find themselves in schools with few white or Asian students."
Average Asian IQ has been shown to range from 99 to 105, not 115!
And the problem is not simply of IQ but physical power and aggression. Non-blacks fear blacks because blacks are more muscular and aggressive. So, even the most liberal Jews in blue states generally don't try live where there are lots of blacks.
As for Hispanics, it's a very varied group. Calling everyone from Latin America 'Hispanic' because they speak English is like calling everyone who speaks English in the US an 'Anglo'.

The 'Powertainment' Industry is Crumbling Down
Katy Grimes | Posted on October 16, 2017 |
Hollywood is imploding right before our eyes. The NFL is bleeding fans and advertising dollars. Most daily newspapers have shrunk to the size of a brochure. Evening news has turned into infotainment – less info and news and more 'tainment.'
The harrowing tale of Hollywood executive Harvey Weinstein is all anyone can talk about now, but hundreds, and maybe thousands were sure silent about Weinstein's sexual exploits over the last two decades. Think of it as the worst kept secret in Hollywood and in liberal Democrat circles.
"For more than twenty years, Weinstein has also been trailed by rumors of sexual harassment and assault," Ronan Farrow reportedin The New Yorker. "This has been an open secret to many in Hollywood and beyond, but previous attempts by many publications, including The New Yorker, to investigate and publish the story over the years fell short of the demands of journalistic evidence."
As with most high profile abusers, too many people fear being the one to bring them down while success is being enjoyed.
Weinstein, the serial harasser, assaulter, groper and masterbater, managed to intimidate his victims – as all abusers do – into silence out of fear of retaliation. An executive who worked for Weinstein for many years told Farrow, "This wasn't a one-off. This wasn't a period of time," "This was ongoing predatory behavior towards women—whether they consented or not."
But Harvey Weinstein is not alone. Many celebrities, professional athletes, politicians, and wealthy, successful famous people have also gotten away with serial abuses, not just because of their stardom, but because others facilitated the cover ups for personal gain.
Politicians have always been an untouchable class of sexual abusers… unless the creep is a Republican.
It is astonishing that Bill Clinton ever made it to the White House after his well-documented and well-publisized sexual assaults of Paula Jones Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick. "I was 35 years old when Bill Clinton, Ark. Attorney General raped me and Hillary tried to silence me. I am now 73….it never goes away," Broaddrick Tweeted in 2016 during the presidential campaign. Her Tweet was aimed squarely at Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, who Broaddrick said intimidated Broaddrick into silence. Juanita Broaddrick's claim was supported by not one but five witnesses and a host of circumstantial (though no physical) evidence, National Review reported. And Hillary Clinton has been accused of targeting, threatening, and even smearing the women Bill sexually assaulted or carried out consensual affairs with.
Then Gov. Bill Clinton was also known to send his state troopers out to retrieve women so he could have sex with them. And of course, who could forget the Monica Lewinsky affair? Bill Clinton showed himself to be a true predator when he targeted the 22-year old intern for his Oval Office exploits.
Ted Kennedy, John Edwards, Larry Craig, Gary Condit, Anthony Weiner, Elliott Spitzer, Bob Packwood, Gary Hart, Mel Reynolds, Strom Thurmond, Mark Foley… the list of philandering politicians is much longer than this, but you get my point. During the Clinton exploits, so many of the Republican members of Congress calling for his impeachment for his sexual exploits and lies, were conducting their own illicit affairs.
Republican politicians typically step down when their sexual exploits are discovered, largely because so many run on family values, anti-gay platforms, and Christian principles. Democrats get reelected.
It wasn't that long ago that former child actors Corey Feldman and Elijah Wood revealed rampant pedophilia in the entertainment industry. "While Wood said on Twitter that nothing was ever done to him as a child star, Feldman tells a very different story," ABC News reported in 2016. "The Lost Boys" star, who was one half of "the Coreys" — himself and Corey Haim — said Haim 'had more direct abuse than I did. With me, there were some molestations and it did come from several hands, so to speak, but with Corey, his was direct rape, whereas mine was not actual rape.'" Haim died of a drug overdose in 2010.
On why he hasn't named names, Feldman said, he would love to, "but unfortunately, California conveniently enough has a statute of limitations that prevents that from happening. Because if I were to go and mention anybody's name I would be the one that would be in legal problems and I'm the one that would be sued."
Feldman is correct. In 2013, there was support for SB 131 by Sen. Jim Beall, D-Santa Clara, to overturn the 10-year statute of limitations, but Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed the bill, likely as a nod to the Catholic Church. However, in 2016, Gov. Brown signed SB 813 to end the 10-year statute of limitations on rape and child molestation charges, but only for certain rape and child molestation victims to pursue charges. And, the new law will only apply to sexual abuse crimes committed after Jan. 1, 2017, and is described by opponents as merely expanding the statute of limitations. How's that for a gift to Hollywood?
Hollywood insiders have acknowledged this dirty little secret of pedophilia is an open secret amongst most in show business.
Here's an assignment: Google "crimes committed by professional sports stars," and prepare to be stunned by the headlines:
· Pro Athletes Convicted of Murder
· The 15 Worst Crimes Committed by NFL Players
· Sports Stars Who Committed The Worst Crimes
· List of Athletes Who Are Felons
· Sports, crime and money: Athletes gone wrong
· NBA Crime Library | Complete database of all NBA arrests
Wikipedia has one of the most expansive pages dedicated just to professional sports stars convicted of crimes.
In my own hometown, former NBA superstar and former Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, has for years been accused of sexual abuse by numerous young girls and young women. Mandi Koba met Johnson in Phoenix in 1995, when she was 15 years old, and he was the star point guard for the Phoenix Suns NBA franchise. Deadspin reported that HBO showed devastating footage of a 1996 interview between Koba and a Phoenix police detective in which she detailed one of the alleged incidents, in which she was sexually abused by Johnson.
Two former students of St. HOPE Academy, Johnson's charter school in Sacramento, and volunteers for his youth groups, told of being groped by Johnson nearly a decade ago as 18 year olds.
From OJ Simpson to Rae Carruth to Aaron Hernandez, the NFL has a long list of bad dudes on its roster. NFL players have been arrested 870 times since 2000. That includes 215 DUI charges, 99 drug charges, 96 domestic violence cases and 71 assaults. It even includes two murders. USA Today compiled a listthat shows which NFL teams have the most player arrests. Really. It turns out the Vikings, Bengals and Broncos have the longest rap sheets, but the other teams have nothing to be proud of. Since the year 2000, the Vikings had 49 player arrests, the Bengals 47, and the Broncos had 44. The total = 870 arrests by NFL players since 2000.
Colin Kaepernick taking a knee during the National Anthem seems like child's play compared to domestic assault and battery, sexual assault, gun arrests, animal cruelty, DUI, drugs, and stealing a golf cart.
However, Kaepernick has managed to piss off half of the country, and now many of the other Scholars in the NFL have joined in.
The NFL is so desperate, Roger Goodell finally announced that players will stand for the National Anthem.
The NBA Crime Library reads about the same as the NFL's: Battery, drugs, assault, DUI, domestic violence.
But Google "crimes committed by pro tennis players" or "crimes committed by pro golfers" and nothing pops up.
What is happening is that Harvey Weinstein has opened the doors to the fractured fairy tail the left perpetrates — that they uphold the rights of oppressed women, and defend all of the injustices beset upon liberals and minorities throughout the globe. (I'm going to barf)
Harvey Weinstein mirrors Bill Clinton's disgusting exploits, as well as those of billionaire creep Jeffrey Epstein, owner of the "Lolita Express" private plane charter service, which jetted many sex creeps to his private island for more sexual exploits, including Clinton who dodged his Secret Service detail for many of the flights, according to records obtained by FoxNews.com.
Hollywood's lefties are too closely linked with the Clinton's and their shady Foundation lovingly called a "favor factory" by the leftists who received favors and benefits. And yet, even being in-the-know, these connected leftists took five days of for Hillary Clinton to make a statement about Weinstein, and six days for the oppressed Obamas, whose own daughter Malia interned at the Weinstein Company, to issue a statement about the Weinstein exploits.
It's time to ring the bell on Bill Clinton, Harvey Weinstein, Roman Polanski, OJ, Kevin Johnson, Hollywood, the NFL and all who behave so repugnantly. America needs to tell them we are so over their kind of celebrity.

Review of Old Glory
Old Glory (1939)
This is one of those Looney Tunes cartoons used by Warner Brothers to educate kids in the '30s and '40s about the USA and about their fantastic heritage. It is too bad that it was released in 1939, too early to contain information about how our soldiers and sailors fought and died in Europe to ensure the freedom for those people, so that they could live to post disparaging comments about this cartoon and about our country. The cartoon tells the children how good and brilliant and important the USA is and how many good and brave people died for this great country so that weenies like the reviewer from the Netherlands could survive the Nazi invasion of their country and post ridiculous comments on this and other websites. There is no attempt to be funny, because this cartoon wasn't made to be funny. Everything wasn't funny back in 1939. You had to be there to understand this. In the era that this little film was made, it wasn't unusual to promote the greatness and beauty of the USA or to make the USA-enemies look dumb/stupid, which they were. We see Porky Pig in 'Old Glory' studying and dreaming of the greatness of his country. With Uncle Sam explaining to him (and the patriotic young viewers, like myself) all about how important and loving the USA is, it was a good lesson to little people of the '30s. It is still a good lesson today, but, sad to say, it wouldn't be as well-received as it was when it was released. It should, however, be a good lesson to people who owe the US a great deal of gratitude for kicking the Axis powers out of their countries, the Netherlands for example, and allowing them the freedom to run down the United States and its patriotism, even with the most atrocious use of the English language as I have ever seen. Three cheers for Porky, Uncle Sam, and the greatest nation in the world, the United States of America.

Catalan President asks the Socialists not to run away from self-determination
The parties supporting Catalonia's right to self-determination regret the Catalan Socialist Party (PSC)'s decision to step down from giving active support to this political process. Last week the PSC's leadership decided not to back any initiative in favour of a self-determination vote that has not been agreed in advance with the Spanish Government, which totally rejects the idea and even refuses to talk about it. The President of the Catalan Government and leader of the Centre-Right Catalan Nationalist Coalition (CiU), Artur Mas, asked the PSC "not to get off the train", stressing the party's tradition of defending Catalan language, culture, identity and self-government. The Left-Wing Catalan Independence Party (ERC) and the Catalan Green Socialist and Communist Coalition (ICV-EUiA) consider the PSC is now against a self-determination vote.

Barcelona (ACN).- The parties supporting Catalonia's right to self-determination regret the Catalan Socialist Party (PSC)'s decision to step down from active support of this political process. The PSC's leadership decided last week not to back any initiative in favour of a self-determination vote that has not been agreed in advance with the Spanish Government, which totally rejects the idea and even refuses to talk about it. At the last party congress and last Catalan elections, the PSC was openly backing Catalonia's right to self-determination and was proposing a "legal" vote, "agreed" with Spanish authorities. Catalan political parties are therefore reacting to the PSC leadership's change of mind regarding the right to self-determination and the organisation of a vote on this issue.
The Catalan President asks the PSC "to listen to the people"
The President of the Catalan Government and leader of the Centre-Right Catalan Nationalist Coalition (CiU), Artur Mas, asked the PSC "not to get off the train", stressing the party's tradition of defending Catalan language, culture, identity and self-government. Mas asked them to "listen to the people's voice", "when it asserts its right to decide [on its collective future], when it wants a further degree of freedom, of sovereignty". The Catalan President asked "those who have doubts and get off the train just when things are starting to get important" to reconsider their stance. Continuing with the train metaphor, Mas insisted that "now is not the moment to get off the train"; "now it's time to be on it, everybody with their own contribution, with their nuances, with their own way of seeing things, but it's the time to be on it". "The greater our numbers – irrespective of whether some travel on the first, second or fourth wagon – the greater strength the train will have", he stated.
Parties backing self-determination vote regret the PSC's change
The Left-Wing Catalan Independence Party (ERC) – which is the second largest party in the Catalan Parliament – considers that the PSC no longer holds an "ambivalent" stance and it is now against a self-determination vote. The ERC's Spokesperson, Anna Simó, regretted that for the PSC, "Catalans' right to self-determination starts and ends with the will of the Spanish Government". According to her, the PSC rejects calling a self-determination vote, since it leaves the initiative in the hands of the Spanish Government.
The Catalan Green Socialist and Communist Coalition (ICV-EUiA) also lamented that the PSC had chosen "to defend the Spanish Socialist Party (PSOE)" instead of its own project of building a true federal and pluri-national Spain. "This [project] can only be furthered by a self-determination vote", added the ICV-EUiA's National Coordinator, Dolors Camats. The Eco-Socialist leader considered it "logical" that many PSC members and MPs are "disappointed" in the party leadership's decision.
Spanish nationalist parties ask the PSC for greater moves
Meanwhile, the two parties against Catalonia's right to self-determination, the People's Party (PP) – which runs the Spanish Government – and the anti-Catalan nationalism and populist party Ciutadans (C's) say not to fully trust the PSC's change of mind. The PP leader in Catalonia, Alícia Sánchez-Camacho, asked the Socialists "not to falsely close" the self-determination debate. The Spanish Conservatives also requested the PSC to withdraw from the Catalan Parliament's commission analysing and proposing legal frame-works for calling a self-determination vote. The Spokesperson of the C's, Matías Alonso, stated that the PSC is no longer "a credible party", since it has given "too many blank cheques to secessionists". Alonso stressed the PSC's "lack of coherence and credibility".
The PSC's leadership has changed the party's stance on self-determination
In order to stop tensions with the Spanish Socialist Party (PSOE) – to which the PSC is federated after the two parties merged in 1977 to run together in Catalonia, the Catalan Socialists decided to run away from supporting a self-determination vote. In addition, the PSC is also aiming to stop the loss of votes towards Spanish nationalist Ciutadans. However, the decision contradicts the party's previous stance, as well as its resolution from its last party congress and the promises made during the last Catalan elections, held in November 2012. For this reason, a few PSC MPs disagree with the decision taken by the party's Secretary General, Pere Navarro, and they are seriously considering breaking ranks and even leaving the party.
Critical PSC MPs might break ranks and support Catalonia's self-determination
Last weekend, the PSC organised a 'National Council' – which is its most important decision-making body in between party congresses – in order to fix the new position and end internal criticisms. The party left the meeting with greater division, despite an apparent consensus with Navarro's proposal having been approved by 83.5% of the attendees' votes. Firstly, only 70% of the 430 representatives attended the meeting, which is an unusually low figure (this means Navarro's plan was only explicitly backed by 60% of the National Council). Secondly, Navarro was unable to find a compromise solution to integrate the views of the critical MPs. Thirdly, these rebel MPs are still voicing their criticism and still consider breaking ranks in the next Catalan Parliament vote on self-determination, scheduled on the 4th December.
On this day, MPs will vote on petitioning the Spanish Government to transfer the powers to call a referendum to the Catalan Government, following Article 150.2 of Spain's Constitution. Latest rumours indicate that some rebel MPs could even abandon the PSC parliamentary group days before this vote, since they are convinced that the request based on Article 150.2 totally respects the legal framework and would allow a legal self-determination vote (it is a formula similar to the one used in Scotland's case). If they were to leave, the PSC could drop from being the 3rd largest party in the Catalan Parliament with 21 MPs to being the 4th one, since the People's Party (PP) has 20 MPs.
Many prominent PSC members have already left the party
Internal tensions within the PSC have been constant for the last three years. However, they have never been so intense, nor the risk of an internal split so great. This friction comes at a time when the party's electoral base has decreased considerably, since most of its voters have abandoned it. The most Spanish nationalist of their voters have already left and are now supporting Ciutadans (C's) or the PP. However, the most important withdrawals in terms of numbers come from pro-Catalan-stance voters. They have also been joined by many significant party members who have left the party. The PSC has almost halved its electoral support in the last 3 years, particularly in rural Catalonia and Barcelona city. These areas are where PSC voters traditionally back more pro-Catalan identity stances. In fact, many prominent PSC figures – at municipal and Catalan level – have left the organisation and cancelled their membership since they consider the party leadership no longer respects internal debate and it is a long way from a true defence of Catalonia's self-government and identity. Some of the most significant withdrawals have been by historical leaders, such as former Catalan President (2003-2006) and party leader, Pasqual Maragall, who was also Barcelona Mayor before and during the 1992 Olympics and led the city's urban transformation in the 1980s and early 1990s.

Willie Herrón, one of the founding members of the Chicano Avant-Garde collective, ASCO, criticized the "Los Four" exhibition at L.A. County Museum of Art in 1974, which displayed graffiti infused murals inside the museum. In an interview with Jeffrey Rangel, he recalled how the "Los Four" exhibition set the stage for an ASCO interventionist performance.

Q: How to get data from a ResultSet without explicitly I'm making a very simple application to display the contents of a database table on a webpage and so I'd like to loop through a ResultSet and stick the contents of each cell between <td> tags, etc..
Problem is that the tables can be quite large and I don't want to use the explicit getString(), getInt(),  getXXX() methods.  Instead, it'd be nicer to use the ResultSetMetaData method getColumnType() as a parameter to a more generic ResultSet getData(<columName>, <type>) method, but there doesn't seem to be one.
Is this possible?  Am I going about this the wrong way, or am I way off base?

A: There is a getObject() method, but you're still going to have to cast the resulting object unless they're all strings and ints which need no special formatting.  In which case you just check it for null and call toString() if it's valid.

Gunter History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
The Gunter surname is derived from the Norman personal name Gunter, which came in turn from the Old French Gontier.
Early Origins of the Gunter family
The surname Gunter was first found in Breconshire (Welsh: Sir Frycheiniog), a traditional county in southern Wales, which takes its name from the Welsh kingdom of Brycheiniog (5th-10th centuries), where they held a family seat on the Welsh border. The Celtic resistance north and south along the border of Wales and England was considerably increased after the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The Normans met more resistance from the Welsh than in the rest of England. The Welsh fought from behind their hills and mountains and tenaciously held their ground. Finally, Edward 1st, to placate this founding nation, conferred the principality of Wales upon his eldest son, who became Edward II. This brought Wales into England as an equal while the King was alive, and integral part of the royal title when on the throne. Edward III confirmed and all Princes of Wales were presented to the Welsh people at Caernarvon Castle. The language of the courts was French for the next three centuries and the Norman ambience prevailed. But Welsh surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the 13th century when they held estates in that shire.

Billings Senior High Student Creates Fundraiser For Homeless Peers
Yellowstone Public Radio | By Kay Erickson
Published September 19, 2019 at 8:34 AM MDT
Laps4Life
Laps4Life, an event to raise money for homeless high school students, kicks off September 21 at 4 P.M.
Laps 4 Life
This Saturday, athletes from Billings' three public high schools will work together to raise money and awareness for a group of their fellow students.
It was an article in the student newspaper at Billings Senior High School that gave Jesse Dimich-Louvet his "a-ha moment." At the time, the Billings Senior High student was searching for a topic for his platinum project, an undertaking that benefits the community required of all honors and Advanced Placement students. The two things came together.
"To read that article really kind of opened my mind and said maybe we can do that, we can raise awareness for the cause through the means of sport," Dimich-Louvet said.
So Dimich-Louvet contacted the three high schools and their coaches and invited them to come together for a fun run or walk around the track at Daylis Stadium, a place where Senior, West and Skyview usually compete against each other.
"To all to be walking or running around the track in the same….not wanting to be to beat each other is also kind of fun and will be new. We've never had the three high schools come together and not be competing against each other," Dimich-Louvet mentioned.
And that's Laps4Life, Dimich-Louvet's project to support and raise funds for homeless teens.
High school athletes, club members, other student groups, even alumni, will complete 15-minute heats either running or walking. Each participant pays $10 dollars to enter.
Laps4Life is also a party. Admission of Daylis will be free for Laps4Life event and there will be music, concessions, balloons and prizes.
The fees, as well as sponsorships he's collected, will go to the Billings Education Foundation for use by Sue Runkle, who works with homeless students in the school district.
Runkle says last year there were some 164 homeless students in Billings' three public high schools.
Runkle says it's a challenge for these students to stay in school.
"There are a lot of obstacles," she says. "There's the obstacles of just the transportation. They may not be in the same place every night. And so getting that way to school every morning may be in issue. Maybe working late and being able to get up and get to school. The challenge is that way. Challenges of maybe having to work instead of going to school or having to stay at home and watch siblings that are not in school."
Runkle says the needs of these students vary. She has a grant that she can use to help to provide money for transportation, school supplies or anything that is a barrier to their schooling. But there are things her grant money cannot buy.
"I've bought sleeping bags and air mattresses for kids that are sleeping on a couch which makes it a little easier for them to have a place to stay. Sometimes it's for clothing or food items, whatever the student needs to survive," Runkle says.
Jesse Dimich-Louvet says that nearly five percent of his peers do not have a home to go to at night is not acceptable. High school is hard enough without being homeless.
Laps4Life is from 4 to 6 P.M. on Saturday, September 21, at Daylis Stadium in Billings.

The idea of SweervyWine & The City (or #SweervyWineAndTheCity on Twitter and IG) was born when the local wine merchant Armit Wines have announced a competition to win a trip for two to Rioja, Spain. One had to take a photo of any bottle of wine from the producer La Rioja Alta with a famous landmark and publish it on either Twitter or Instagram with the hashtag #LaRiojaAltaWorld to be in for a chance to win the trip to the winery.
So there I was, with my one year old daughter in tow and a bottle of 2008 Viña Arana Rioja Reserva in the pushchair's storage basket and camera hanging over my neck (looking and feeling very touristy), hitting up London's landmarks hoping to take if not award winning then at least holiday winning photos.
It didn't take long until the competition bug bit my dear husband… We ended up getting a second, different bottle (this time a 2007 Viña Ardanza) to take even more pics for him to enter the competition as well!
No drinking and driving happened here…!
Indulging in some cultural activities & hitting up museums. First stop – Natural History Museum.
Wondering if Albert would like me..?
…who thinks this wine is a stunner!
One exhausted bottle of Rioja taking a short break before heading home to join her friends in the cool wine cabinet!
In the meantime, after letting it rest in the wine cabinet for a few days I popped that bottle of Viña Arana and paired it with homemade lamb cutlets & roast potatoes. I love to drink Rioja with my lamb and this was certainly a fantastic pairing. This however, is such an elegant expression of Rioja (which is typically best enjoyed with food), that it was just as great (if not better!) on its own after dinner!
I marinated the lamb for ca. 2 hours in a mix of garlic, thyme, paprika, couple of threads saffron and a few dashes of olive oil. First seared in a griddle pan then finished off in the oven.
Both wines featured in this series are available at a number of retailers. I purchased my Viña Arana from Waitrose and the Viña Ardanza from Majestic Wine.
Now that SweervyWine & The City has developed into a project of its own I will certainly continue creating new series as I travel, explore and discover beautiful places and wines. Therefore sign up for updates on my blog and follow SweervyWine on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!
Beautiful pics! Did you win the competition??


When people who aren't transportation geeks ask me why transportation policy is a topic worthy of more attention on the national stage, I often start by talking about the public health implications. Not only are tens of thousands of Americans killed and injured in car crashes every year, not only are countless thousands of others killed and sickened by air pollution caused by motor vehicles — on top of that, the link between obesity and automobile dependence is increasingly well-documented. As Elana Schor wrote here a couple of weeks ago, "Transportation reform is health reform."


A lecture by Fr. Andrew Hofer, OP (Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception).
St. Augustine of Hippo has vastly influenced Catholic thinking, and is the most quoted theologian in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. He was a man always surrounded by friends, and came to have deep insight into friendship—especially with God. This talk will consider St. Augustine's insights into the Lord's initiative of friendship with us, and our response to enjoy the Lord.
