Charlie Rangel Says Obama's Critics Come From "Slaveholder States"
The flattened presidential palace and Port-au-Prince's hollowed-out cathedral offered striking symbols of the failure of an international aid effort that never lived up to its promise, despite billions of pledged dollars.
By the ruins of the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption, whose roof and towers collapsed after the 7.0-magnitude quake, Jean Wilbert, a 40-year-old cripple ekes out an existence in a makeshift camp with his mother.
"I've been here for the past two years," Wilbert told AFP, admitting he found it hard emotionally to move on from the disaster. "I cannot detach myself from this place where I lost my two legs," he said.
UN fact sheets highlighted the hundreds of thousands of people relocated from tent cities in 2011 and the 1.1 million children now receiving daily food aid, but the pace of reconstruction has been painfully slow.
That is partly explained by the cataclysmic scale of the January 12, 2010 disaster, which killed, injured or displaced one in six of the Caribbean nation's entire population, razing some 250,000 homes in the capital alone.
But Haiti was also already the economic basket case of the Western Hemisphere, a dysfunctional country often ruled by a corrupt elite while 80 percent of the population lived below the poverty line, most in stinking slums.
More than half-a-million people displaced by the 2010 quake subsist in 800 squalid tent camps around the capital, and the health authorities, propped up by an army of NGOs, are still battling a cholera epidemic that has killed nearly 7,000 people since November 2010.
In this largely Roman Catholic country, places of worship were holding services throughout the day to remember the disaster, throwing open their doors to quake survivors, many still traumatized by the events of that day.
Government officers were shuttered along with schools and businesses.
At 4:53 pm local time (2153 GMT), the moment the earthquake struck, President Michel Martelly was to lay a wreath at the mass grave north of the capital where most of the dead lie entombed, dumped there in lorry-load after lorry-load in the days after the disaster.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon paid tribute to those who died — including more than 100 UN personnel — and called on international donors to keep up their "vital support" for the rebuilding two years after the disaster.
"Despite considerable achievements, including in the areas of rubble removal and the resettlement of displaced persons, many Haitians remain in need of international assistance," Ban said.
UN special envoy to Haiti Michaelle Jean said "murderous negligence" had contributed to the vast toll as she pointed to "an absence of laws and regulations to standardize construction works" that led to building collapses.
"It is irresponsible laissez-faire, generalized disorder set up as a system," she said.
Shocked in the immediate aftermath of one of the deadliest disasters of modern times, the international community promised billions of dollars of aid money to "build back better."
Decentralization — away from the slum-infested, sprawling capital of three million — was the buzzword in a plan to be implemented under the watchful eye of former US president Bill Clinton.
This grandiose vision now appears to have been a pipe-dream.
Less than half the $4.59 billion pledged has been received and disbursed, and the coffers of the aid agencies are also drying up.
More than 50 percent of the quake rubble has now been cleared, but little has been erected in its place.
Most of the hundreds of thousands of people who fled Port-au-Prince after the quake have since returned to the overcrowded capital, desperate for work and food in a country still lacking another effective pole to attract labor.
Martelly, a former carnival entertainer and pop singer, was sworn in as the new president in May, riding a populist wave and promising to bring the change that the country so badly needs.
But faced with a parliament dominated by his political opponents, it took him five months to even get a prime minister appointed.

Our new group of volunteers hve now completed their ten sessions of volunteering and received their certificates at the Irish Bread workshop held on 16th of March.
If you wish to be included in the next round of training, then contact the office on 0151 706 0155 and speak to Lorraine, or send an email.
We had a practical breadmaking day with Ian leading the session.
We all baked one loaf each using different flours, but Ian and Lorraine both baked wholemeal bread which needed more time to rise during proving, which is usual for wholemeal bread as it contains less gluten than white or granary .
Training over for the day! From the left - Joseph, Sarah, Sharon, Frances, Cindy and Lorraine.

Speaking up for the fatherless – Showing God's love to orphans
FIRM Staff
Israeli nonprofit sparks a national movement to show God's love for the orphan.
Ever since the disheartening statistics on abortion in Israel have spread across the believing community, many in the Land were moved to take action.
A bold pro-life movement in Israel has saved numerous innocent lives over the years.
However, in many cases the question remained, what happens to the babies that have been brought into this world and yet their birth parents are unable or indisposed to raise them.
About 300 babies in Israel get abandoned at hospitals each year.
It is estimated that almost 400 thousand children are considered at-risk.
Out of around ten thousand children removed from their homes by the Ministry of Welfare, only 25% are in foster care.
With these disheartening numbers in mind, it is staggering that, on average, only 120 Israeli children are adopted each year. What then is holding the Israelis back and what can be done about it?
These important questions inspired a young and vibrant organization in Jerusalem to expand their work to raise awareness and equip families to meet this challenge.
HaTikva Project serves needy Israelis in the name of Yeshua, fulfilling the commandment to "love your neighbor as yourself."
Out of that a new department was birthed, called HaTikva Families, to encourage believers in Israel to take up the cause of the orphan and vulnerable child.
By promoting and facilitating adoption and foster care in Israel, HaTikva Families is mobilizing the Israeli Body of Messiah to take a leading role in caring for orphans.
This Fall, through HaTikva Families' newest campaign called Orphan Shabbat, numerous communities and congregations in the land hosted events to bring awareness and to inspire believers to take steps towards addressing this crisis.
Apart from inspiring special services and speaking engagements dedicated to God's heart for the orphan, the Orphan Shabbat events also included prayer meetings and volunteer opportunities.
HaTikva Families invests in a wide spectrum of preparatory undertakings, knowing that in order for adoption in Israel to flourish the families need extensive guidance and training paired with financial and relational support.
Partnering with agencies and other nonprofits to fight for the rights of children, HaTikva Project is shining a bright light of hope over the most vulnerable members of our society.

T.Y. Dairy Farmers Association
This association was formed in 1983, through the advice of the Agricultural Extension Officer in the Dairy Sector. Membership covered a wide range of Berea District, including villages like Ha Senekane, Ha Koali, Ha 'Mamathe and Teyeteyaneng Township. In 1989, the association got registered with the Law Office under the name of Berea Dairy Farmers Association. It started with 17 members, 12 males and 5 females. Milk production ranged between 50–100 litres per day due to shortage of dairy cows. The produce was sold to Lesotho Dairy Products (LDP). The association ploughed about 8 acres of lucern at Pukane Ha Koali to minimize forage costs.
To have a sustainable farm in animal husbandry, fodder production and processing; which is also also able to process its own produce.
To keep cows together.
To produce and process fodder.
To use artificial insemination.
T.Y Dairy Farmers Association is located at Khoaba-Lea-Bua, Hamolemane in Teyateyaneng within the Berea Urban Council.
Currently membership is built by people within the T.Y. Township and has dropped to twelve (12) members, all males. Females and youth appeared intermittently due to various reasons, that is, not reaping instantly, most of production activities are physical, therefore, difficult for them to perform, and were disheartened by inconsistency and lack of transparency in their payments by Lesotho Dairy Products (LDP) company where a larger portion of our milk was sold.
Milk production has increased to about 300 litres per day. The average production stands at 15 litres per cow. 70% of the total production is sold at Farm gate, while 30% is sold to LDP Company due to the reason mentioned above.
We always sent milk samples for each cow to Livestock Department to be tested before it could be make available for human consumption.
We currently undergoing a fodder production project piloted on 18 acres land, conducted and financed by Rural Self Help Development Association (RSDA). This exercise has boosted morale for farmers to produce fodder on their own. Quality of hay was produced, milled and mixed for adequate feeding.
Association bought Artificial Insemination Tank. Engaged in new technology and managed the tank. We use semen drawn from Jersey, Holstein and Dairy Swiss cows. Quality heifers were born and milk volumes increased. Insemination service was extended to non -members and we have experienced an increased in finances.
Association got assistance from Small Holder Agricultural Development Project (SADP) to purchase a hammer mill to simplify the fodder mixing process. Association received training from RSDA on fodder production and mixing and animal husbandry.
The Association has acquired land of the following dimensions; N 60, S 49.3, E 112, W 110 at Khoaba-lea-bua Ha Molemane, where we are going to keep our cows together for good management.
There is no umbrella body for dairy associations in our district that caters for all matters concerning dairy farming.
Steps should be taken to form an umbrella body and 'BEREA DAIRY FARMERS ASSOCIATION' in order to address all dairy farmers concerns.
Future Aspects
To establish milk processing company in collaboration with other dairy associations based in the Berea district.
To create a dairy sharing scheme.

EPA's Brownfields Program provides funds to empower states, communities, tribes, and nonprofits to prevent, inventory, assess, clean up, and reuse brownfield sites. EPA provides brownfields funding for three types of grants: Brownfields Assessment Grants, Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) Grants, and Brownfields Cleanup Grants. Under this RFP, EPA is seeking proposals for RLF Grants, only, to provide funds to capitalize a revolving fund and to make loans and provide subgrants to carry out cleanup activities at brownfield sites.

Israel Premier Sports League Number One Goal: Give Back
By David Lasday
Imagine being able to go back in time to the beginnings of the National Basketball Association or National Football League and create a foundation of giving back to the community. This is what the Israel Premier Lacrosse League (IPLL) is doing right now. In its second season, the IPLL, a league composed of Jewish college lacrosse players from North America, foreign players from England, Germany, Turkey, Czech Republic, and Uganda, as well as native Israeli players, fields six teams: Be'er Sheva, Kiryat Gat, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Netanya, and Haifa. While like all Premier League's the outcome on the field matters, the true winning takes place off the field.
It starts from the minute Jewish players from North America arrive at the airport for their Birthright lacrosse trip organized by Amazing Israel. Each player comes with a bag of donated second hand lacrosse equipment that they have collected from their college and community at home. EL AL's sponsorship to the IPLL covers the extra baggage fees for the donated equipment. On arrival this equipment is dispersed to Israeli youth lacrosse players in the periphery.
This season the IPLL is a pilot Masa summer program. Thanks to Masa, players receive Hebrew lessons, travel, and a full Israel experience. The IPLL schedule includes two practices, one conditioning training, and two games each week. Outside of these activities each player is required to volunteer 20+ hours in the community helping grow the game of lacrosse. In conjunction with the local community centers, IPLL players run lacrosse camps as well as visit camps around their city holding introductory lacrosse clinics. According to Shlomi Numa, Head of Education and Community in Beer Sheva, "What a special experience for the kids. Imagine as a kid, Premier sports players coming to your camp and giving you private lessons. The kids are blown away. We have sent players to 40 camps around the city." Commissioner of the IPLL Ted Bergman explains, "This is a win win win. The program gives players the opportunity to learn and connect to the city that they play for, while building a fanbase and the next generation of lacrosse players. At the same time this also provides Israeli youth in the cities that we work in a sports experience they will never forget."
In addition to coaching at camps, each IPLL club has a U15 Academy team. Premier League players coach this team twice a week and take them on away games to play against other clubs. Each week a different city hosts a lacrosse festival where all the Premier and U15 teams come together for a day of games. It's not unfamiliar to see a Premier League player dressed in his equipment coaching a U15 team before his own match. Amir Ben Simchon, Head of Sport in Kiryat Gat explains, "Lacrosse festivals build a feeling of community. It's amazing to see the Premier League players cheer on the U15 Academy and then see the love and passion in the eyes of the youth as they cheer on the Premier Team. As a Director of Sport in a city, there is nothing better." Ashdod U15 goalee Dennis Zasipko says, "My coaches have taught me so much. Watching them play gives me a better understanding of what they are telling me in the huddle."
The IPLL was the first lacrosse league in the world to adopt the Sitcks For Kids program, a project that utilizes the status and influence of players to teach at risk children life skills. As part of Sticks For Kids, each IPLL club runs two lacrosse clinics each week at moadoniote – municipal after-school programs for at risk youth. The clinics focus on teamwork, listening, goal setting, and discipline. Jaffari Ibrahim Makanda, Ashkelon Premier League player from Uganda has treasured his time working with underprivileged youth: "Playing in the IPLL is a dream come true, but what's even more valuable has been the opportunity to give back to the game off the field. I look forward to bringing back what I learned about growing the game, giving back, and building community to Kampala."
Lacrosse will be be televised nationally in Israel for the first time, when Sport ONE carries the Israel Premier Lacrosse League Championship Game live from Wolfson Fields in Tel Aviv on Wednesday at 7:45 PM (local time). The Hebrew-language broadcast will also be streamed live via the Sport ONE website, at one.co.il.
David Lasday serves as the Director of Youth Development for the Israel Lacrosse Association. A social entrepreneur, Lasday also helps direct the growth of Global Game Changers, Sticks For Kids and Hoops For Kids. Lasday can be reached at David@lacrosse.co.il.

Israel's Do-Over Election: Déjà Vu or a Chance for Change?
in: Middle East, World
JERUSALEM — Israelis are voting Tuesday in the second election in five months. The last one ended inconclusively after weeks of negotiations, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, failed to produce a governing coalition with a viable majority for the first time in Israel's history.
Mr. Netanyahu, Israel's longest-serving prime minister, is once again fighting for his political survival. Polls indicate a tight race even though he is facing possible indictment on accusations of bribery, fraud and breach of trust. This could be his last stand.
Didn't Israel just hold an election?
Yes, on April 9. Mr. Netanyahu, leader of the conservative Likud party, had appeared poised for another term based on the assumption that he could forge a coalition with the same right-wing and religious parties of his previous one.
But as the deadline for forming a government approached, an ally-turned-nemesis, Avigdor Lieberman, refused to join in. The leader of a secular, ultranationalist party, he did so ostensibly because of a dispute with ultra-Orthodox parties over a bill allowing more seminary students to be drafted.
That left Mr. Netanyahu and his allies one seat short of a majority in the 120-seat Parliament. Determined to deprive his rivals of a chance to form a government, Mr. Netanyahu orchestrated the swift dissolution of the newly elected Parliament, leading to Tuesday's vote.
What's at stake?
Mr. Lieberman's defection from the right-wing religious axis and his refusal to join a government with ultra-Orthodox parties has thrust Israel's secular-religious divide to the fore.
Under Israel's electoral system of proportional representation, no single party has ever won enough votes for an outright majority in Parliament. Instead, the larger parties must form coalitions, usually by enlisting the support of smaller parties that demand concessions to protect their own narrow and particular interests.
Many Israelis are chafing over the disproportionate power that religious parties have gained over the years through this system.
The Orthodox parties are battling to preserve their values, economic interests and political influence.
In any election, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a perennial issue. This time, the fate of the two-state solution, long accepted internationally as the basis for a resolution, is hanging in the balance after Mr. Netanyahu pledged to annex nearly a third of the occupied West Bank.
The Trump administration has said it will release its long-awaited peace plan after Israel votes.
Campaigning, meanwhile, has focused on the politics of identity and a range of fears.
For some Netanyahu supporters, the Iranian threat is paramount, while his opponents from the center-left worry about the future of Israeli democracy. They accuse Mr. Netanyahu of trying to manipulate the news media and of undermining the judiciary and law enforcement as part of a bid to gain immunity from prosecution, including by calling to curb the powers of the Supreme Court. A hearing in his corruption cases is set for early October.
For many Israelis, this election offers a choice between a continuation of a rightward, religious shift or a return to a more liberal Israel. Some feel it's time for a change.
"People are tired," said Sarit Geyor, 59, the manager of a homeware store in a Tel Aviv suburb who voted for Mr. Netanyahu and Likud in 2015 but has switched to the centrist Blue and White alliance. "I think we need to give a chance to a new leader."
The main challengers
Like last time, the main contest is between Mr. Netanyahu, 69, and Benny Gantz, 60, a soft-spoken, reserved former military chief of staff and leader of the Blue and White party, named for the colors of the Israeli flag.
In Israel's parliamentary democracy, people vote for a party, not a person. Blue and White tied with Likud in April, each winning 35 seats. Once again, they are running neck and neck in the polls, with Blue and White edging ahead in some.
Likud has long been the dominant force on the Israeli right. Many Israelis still see Mr. Netanyahu, who goes by the nickname Bibi, as the most suitable candidate for prime minister. With years of experience and international standing, he has maintained an enthusiastic base.
He is credited with bringing Israel relative stability and growth and with expanding its diplomatic and trade ties in Africa, Latin America and Asia. He is also praised for his close relations with President Trump and President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.
Mr. Netanyahu has focused on the fight against Iran's nuclear ambitions and expanded influence. If he begins annexing West Bank territory, as promised, it would flout international opinion and law, deal a potentially fatal blow to the two-state solution and redraw the map of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Mr. Gantz brings strong security credentials but is a relative political novice. Much of his appeal stems from being the "Not Bibi" candidate.
A voice of moderation, Mr. Gantz is hoping to attract disillusioned soft-right voters and as broad a cross-section of the electorate as possible. Viewed as clean of corruption, he has stuck mainly to issues of consensus and said little about what he would do if elected beyond working to unify Israelis.
"Gantz doesn't stir up strong emotions," said Gayil Talshir, a political scientist at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. "It's hard to get excited about him; it's hard to hate him."
Who votes, and when?
Israel has 5.8 million eligible voters in a population of nine million. Arab citizens are a sixth of Israel's electorate. The voting age is 18.
Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza cannot vote, and as most Palestinian residents of East Jerusalem do not hold Israeli citizenship, they cannot, either.
Most polling stations will open at 7 a.m. and close at 10 p.m., or midafternoon Tuesday in the eastern United States. Results dribble out overnight, with the outcome typically reasonably clear within six hours.
Elections are supposed to occur every four years, but many governments do not last a full term. The April election was the first to have ended without the formation of a government.
Is another deadlock possible?
Israeli elections are complicated and unpredictable, with many small parties competing for votes and the chance to influence a coalition's makeup.
There may be no outright winner on Tuesday. Another deadlock is possible if the parties overcome public apathy and generate a reasonable voter turnout with results similar to those in April. Some Israelis are even predicting a third election.
But several new factors may change the calculus.
The main difference: Mr. Lieberman is no longer giving his automatic support to Mr. Netanyahu and says he will not help him form a narrow, right-wing-religious coalition. Instead Mr. Lieberman says his party will support a candidate willing to form a broad government of national unity.
Both Blue and White and Mr. Lieberman have said they aim to forge a coalition that excludes the ultra-Orthodox parties, ending years of what many Israelis view as political extortion by small and midsize sectorial parties in return for their support.
Blue and White says it wants to form a unity government, which would normally involve joining forces with Likud. But Mr. Gantz has ruled out sitting in one under a prime minister facing possible indictment.
Another wild card may be Ayman Odeh of the Joint List, the predominantly Arab alliance. Traditionally, Arab parties have not actively supported any Jewish candidate for prime minister and have never joined, or been invited to join, a governing coalition.
This time, Mr. Odeh has not ruled out either. The Joint List could also serve as a blocking force, depriving Mr. Netanyahu of a majority in Parliament by supporting a Gantz-led coalition while remaining outside the government.

J.J. Abrams Reveals 'God Particle' Is The Next Film In The 'Cloverfield' Series
J.J. Abrams has a new film coming out called 'God Particle' which we have very idea what it is about quite yet but we've just learned that it will be the latest film tied to 'Cloverfield'. In fact, it seems that Paramount Pictures and Abrams are trying to develop quite a few new films in the shared 'Cloverfield' universe with a new one planned for each year.
What we do know about 'God Particle' is that it will follow a group of astronauts who, after they making a "shocking discovery" which may have destroyed the Earth, appear to be thrown into an altered reality where they must fight for their survival. It is being directed by Julis Onah ('The Girl Is in Trouble') with a script by Oren Uziel and stars David Oyelowo, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Ziyi Zhang, Elizabeth Debicki, Daniel Brühl, and Chris O'Dowd.
It will be hard to tell how tied to giant monsters and an alien invasion they will all be as last years '10 Cloverfield Lane' was much more of a suspense thriller than giant alien invasion film. We'll see if the third installment can find a way to more directly tie the first two together as so far it has been a little vague.
Are you looking forward to checking out 'God Particle' when it debuts early next year? Share your thoughts below!
'God Particle' will open on February 24th, 2017.

"Beyond Horoscopes: How Astrology Can Lead to Interesting Life Insights" by Rowena Winkler
Summary: Many of you may know your zodiac sign, but more recently, astrological concepts such as Mercury in Retrograde, Rising Signs, and Synastry (AKA compatibility) have started coming into the mainstream via online articles and popular apps such as Co-Star and The Pattern. In this presentation, learn from Rowena's experiences getting more involved in the study of astrology, and how this knowledge has impacted several areas of her life — and potentially yours as well.

"If loose lips sink ships, what might her other parts do?: Policing women's talk in wartime" by Rebecca Adelman
Summary: During World War II, the "loose lips" blamed for "sinking ships" frequently belonged to women, and posters reminded amorous GIs not to share sensitive information in an attempt to impress the ladies. Today, OPSEC (Operational Security) materials for military families warn wives to scrub their social media and keep their husbands' deployments secret. While men telling women to be quiet is hardly novel, in these cases, talkative women are portrayed as not just irritating but lethally dangerous. These chatterboxes will be our guides through a history of the U.S. military's approach to the problems of its men liking women, and those women liking to have contact with the outside world.
Bio: Rebecca Adelman is an Associate Professor of Media and Communication Studies at UMBC, where she teaches and writes about things like militarized violence, surveillance, and media theory. Her newest book is Figuring Violence: Affective Investments in Perpetual War, and everyone should buy it. Rebecca is currently 11.8% done with her life ambition to run a marathon in every state + DC.

"Sharks in Your Backyard: Ocean Predators in the Bay, the River, and Other Places You Wouldn't Expect Them" by Chuck Bangley
Summary: Sharks (and their close relatives, the rays) are expected to be creatures of the open ocean, or even the shallow water right off the beach. However, you don't need to live by the sea to find sharks close to home. You'll be introduced to some of the sharks and rays that live inside the Chesapeake Bay, up the Potomac River, and other unexpected places around the world, including some that can spend time outside the water entirely. We'll figure out which species might even be in the waters of DC itself, why it's actually a good thing if they're there, and what you can do to coexist peacefully with the sharks in your backyard.
Bio: Chuck Bangley has been fascinated by sharks and the ocean in general for as long as he can remember. He grew up and developed an appreciation for calamari in Rhode Island, earned his graduate degrees and developed an appreciation for craft beer in North Carolina, and currently works at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center and is developing a borderline addiction to oysters in Maryland. His current research is focused on migratory behavior and habitat use in Atlantic coast sharks and rays. When given a guitar Chuck can play a mean cover of the theme song from "Sharknado 4," among other things.
"I Don't Always Wear A Shirt, but… Actually, I Never Wear A Shirt: The Story of Smokey, the Most Interesting Bear in the World." by Ashley Warriner

"I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just Not You: The Good and Evil of Personality Assessments" by Margarita Rozenfeld
Summary: From OKCupid to Cosmo to Myers Briggs, there are countless contenders for the most winning personality test, but who can actually help you know thyself (and others)? In this social science nerd talk we'll investigate why personality tests are so popular, how valid they are, what's the best way to use them for good vs. evil and dive into one assessment that can actually help you figure out how people tick (but only if you promise to use that information for good!)
Bio: Margarita Rozenfeld is an organization and leadership development consultant who is fascinated by what makes humans tick. She has made it into a career and helps all kinds of organizations, teams and leaders – from non-profit to corporate to government – do good in the world and well by their employees. When she's not doing that, Margarita is likely on some awesome travel (mis)adventure in a remote part of the world (or telling a story about it.)
"Don't Read the Comments: Edgar Allan Poe Spilling Tea and Throwing Shade in a Pre-Internet World" by Colleen Parker
Summary: If Edgar Allan Poe was alive today, he would be the Twitter Troll Diva Supreme. He wrote an extensive amount of essays and reviews for the various newspapers he either worked for or owned. His works included shade posts of his peers, spilling the tea on [alleged] plagiarism, negging female authors, and straight up trolling the literati of Boston. In this presentation, we will explore the best and the worst of Poe's literary criticism, the historical context, and how strikingly similar some of Poe's most scathing reviews are to the internet trolls of today.
Bio: Colleen Parker is a performance artist with Super Art Fight, a costume and prop maker for TBD Immersive, and she makes soap in her free time. Mostly she listens to audiobooks. All day, every day. Like it's her job. Because it is her job. She is the Director of Quality Assurance with a contractor for the Library of Congress's National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. Her greatest achievement in her audiobook career was to say, in all seriousness, it's leviOsa not levioSA.
"Elf Lobbyists, Harald Bluetooth and Stubby the Yule Lad: Contemporary and Ancient Folklore of Iceland" by Jules Coney Revere
Summary: What if the Silver Line woes could be solved by an elf whisperer? Would you give someone new clothes to prevent them from being stolen by a giant black cat? Using elf experts to smooth along construction projects and warding off the Christmas Cat are some of the folkloric traditions held by Iceland. Considering Icelanders lived in almost impossibly harsh conditions, under colonial rule, and next to a volcano that killed almost 6 million people and helped cause the French Revolution, maybe it's not so weird. Come hear some of the tales of Icelandic Hidden Folk, trolls, and how to create a tilberi that'll save you a fortune on milk and butter.
Bio: Jules has been nerding out on folklore and mythology roughly since she could read. Her fascination with Icelandic folklore began in 2012 as she prepared for her first visit and learned about the elves. She obtained her first MA at Concordia in Montreal where her thesis explored the use of dance and movement in organizational development and innovation. She is considering a second MA in Icelandic Studies (or simply moving to Iceland). She currently works at Republic Restoratives Distillery and East City Bookshop where she has probably tried to sell you a book set in Iceland.

Gnoticism and the Body
The second full-length volume from Jenks expands on the blistering lyrics of On the Cave You Live In (Flood Editions), by moving further into equal mixtures of social critique and sonic pattern. Philip Jenks grew up in West Virginia. He completed a Master's degree in creative writing at Boston University, and his ongoing engagement with Appalachian culture and politics led him to the University of Kentucky, where he worked at the Appalachian Center. In 2002, Jenks received his doctorate in Political Science. He currently is an assistant professor at Portland State University.
My First Painting Will Be "The Accuser," by Philip Jenks
My First Painting Will Be "The Accuser"
Philip Jenks
ISBN 0-9761612-0-6 (paper)
5¼ x 8
Visual cue in the title notwithstanding, Jenks's new collection is utterly aural. As he writes in his "poem for U. S. Maple": "jesus said look no further / it's all in the hearing." The rhymes and razor-sharp scaffolding of sound that vertically hold each page together do not, however, make for a page-bound poetry. These poems, baffled by boundaries—sea/land, inside the mind/outside the body—are "voiced" in the Joycean sense, muttered in prayer, proclaimed in anger, recording the experience of "being" at sea: "He falls apart / off his bones in the aisle and is a wander / plus a satyr hs vicious logos…" Through ample use of the prefix "hy" Jenks removes both the "his" and "story" from history and leaves us in animal sensation: "hyster," or womb, the ultimate threshold between land and sea. And thus we have: hydra, hysterated, hysterectomy. This beautiful hermetic work is guided by an exacting craftsman possessed of an ethical mind.
—Jennifer Moxley
Inspired speech recording its own fall into dead letter, the poems of Philip Jenks are strange, original, terrifying. A stuttered apocalypse, they affirm our fellowship with all matter while suffering divinity's perpetual departure from our midst.
—Benjamin Friedlander

Dubai International Program for Writing
program-gallery
Dubai International Program for Writing, launched in October 2013, is one of the most innovative approaches that contributes to enriching the intellectual and literary movement in the UAE and worldwide.
The program aims to empower and encourage young talents who have displayed a flair for writing in various fields of knowledge from science and research to literature, novel and poetry and help them reach the world.
Presently, the program includes four categories for young talents: Writing, Exchange of writers, My Story (Qesaty) Competition, Translation), and there are plans to include more categories.
First Category: Writing
A panel of writing and publishing experts assesses the work and written samples submitted by youngsters interested in joining the program, according to specific criteria based on talent and language skills. Talented writers who pass the evaluation stage join specialized training programs in each field of writing (fiction, literature, short story, children's books, science, research, history, studies and feature articles) under the supervision of the finest Arab and international trainers. After the completion of the required training courses, MBRF will publish the works of the candidates in cooperation with established publishing houses inside and outside the UAE.
Second Category: Exchange of Writers
"Exchange of Writers" is an idea based on partnership agreements between the MBRF and international institutions. It includes a competition between young writers in the UAE and other countries, whereby each team stays in the country of the other team for a whole month to experience a different lifestyle and project it on the reality where they grew up. This would enhance their awareness of diverse cultures and civilizations, as they convey their deeper experiences and insights about their stay to the readers, through their literary works that reflect the reality of these experiences.
This cooperation will lead to the publication of books in Arabic and English and in the language of the participants from other countries, confirming the value of knowledge, cooperation and the unity of humans. Two stages of writers' exchangewere organized with Japan and Germany, and several talents were trained under the supervision of many instructors. Additionally, two stages of book exchange were also organized with Japan and Germany.
Third (Emerging) category: My Story (Qesaty)
The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, has launched the short story contest "Qesaty" to promote Arabic language and arts among prep and secondary school students, as well as faculty members and administrators in the UAE. This aims to draw attention to the building of the folk tale, the dissemination of cultural values among the members of society, the preservation of oral cultural heritage, and the consolidation of the popular heritage in the hearts of the people of the state.
Fourth Category: Translation
Aims to qualify and train a generation of young professionals in the field of translating various books and publications. The workshop seeks to attract young talents who will be selected based on their previous experience in the field of translation and will be placed in a five-month intensive course, delivered by a group of instructors specialized in translating literary works, as well as business and and management books. At the end of the workshop, the Foundation issues a collection of books translated by the participants.
Contributions and Results
Since the launch of the Dubai International Writing Program, a series of specialized training courses have been organized in various fields of writing, novel, translation, children's literature, youth literature, short stories and others.

Steelers Free Agency: Mike Tolbert Thinks Pittsburgh Would Be A Good Fit
By Charlie Wilmoth Mar 12, 2012, 3:34pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Steelers Free Agency: Mike Tolbert Thinks Pittsburgh Would Be A Good Fit
Chargers running back Mike Tolbert thinks that the Steelers would make sense as a potential free-agent fit this offseason.
Tolbert, who is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent late Tuesday, mentioned early on in the interview that that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Pittsburgh Steelers are two teams that will be on his radar. Tolbert did however say later on in the interview that he and his agent have sat down to list several teams where he thought he would be a fit and that list included the New York Giants, Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs, Green Bay Packers and Miami Dolphins also as good fits for him … Tolbert was also asked about the money he would command and admitted he would like to hit the big pay day, but ultimately it will come down to his market value and what he and his agent deem as fair.
Given Rashard Mendenhall's injury and the amount of uncertainty surrounding their running back situation, the Steelers could certainly use Tolbert, who rushed for 490 yards and caught 54 passes for 433 yards last season. But as Steelers Depot points out, Pittsburgh doesn't have a ton of cap space and isn't usually a big player for high-priced free agents. Unless his value unexpectedly drops, don't expect him to wind up in black and gold. This is certainly an interesting idea, however.

Futurelawyer: Wisdom, Courage, Justice And Self-Control - Sound Like Politics To You?
Wisdom, Courage, Justice And Self-Control - Sound Like Politics To You?
Can you be a Stoic and a political activist? by Christopher Gill %u2013 Modern Stoicism.If you voted. If you did what you could. Stoicism teaches that you should have the wisdom to realize that the results of the election were out of your control, and you should have the courage and self-control to accept the results and move on. Regardless of which side of the political spectrum you occupy, be the adult in the room. One of my favorite Stoic politicians, James Stockdale, faced serious difficulties in his life. It is unfortunate that his political foray met with such disdain. But, you would never hear him complain. "Discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality.." he said. Yes, Stoics have been great politicians; but the founding principles of the philosophy, grounded in acceptance, and even love, of fate, require that we accept all outcomes as beyond our control. Yes, you can be a political activist; but, follow the wise precepts of the Stoic philosophers.

BACK IN THE olden days, folks wrote messages on cave walls and scraps of papyrus. Later, in the 15th century, Europeans began expressing gratitude on paper and delivering the notes by hand (or horseback, if they were dashing). This practice was revolutionized in the 1800s, with the advent of post offices. Thank-you notes could be mailed as far as postal services delivered.
See the pattern? Times change—often fueled by new technologies (first papyrus, then paper, then stamps). People were doing the same thing they always had, thanking each other. They were just doing it a little differently.
no! That's too easy." But think about it: Isn't that like criticizing people for mailing thank-you notes instead of delivering them by hand—as they did originally—or for using paper instead of papyrus? Making things harder doesn't make them better. And ignoring technology is silly. Expressing gratitude is the important thing. So, I've changed my mind. Emailed thank-you notes? Why not? Just consider some ground rules for sending thanks electronically.
Make them count. With all the time you're saving—no more hunting for stamps—take a moment to write a really thoughtful email. Typing "Thanks" and pressing "Send" is not a thank-you note.
Make them individual. No mass thanks to everyone who sent a birthday gift. Add handsome colors and artwork to make your emails special.
Make sure. Proofread for spelling and grammar, especially when thanking a prospective employer after a job interview. You want your would-be boss to see you at your best.
Make them like notes. When thanking old-fashioned folks (who might prefer a handwritten note), use websites like PaperlessPost.com to send emails that look like the real thing—with electronic envelopes and everything.

WHEN I GET a handwritten letter, I'm excited to open it. The art of the postage stamp, the feel of the paper, the graphic quirks of a friend's handwriting: There is simply nothing as personal as a handwritten note. In a stack of bills and flyers, it's a treasure in a sealed packet, full of promise and potential. It is a visceral reminder of someone far away.
sends the message that you care enough to invest yourself personally in acknowledging another.
Would I ever send a digital thank-you for a gift I was given? No way. It just isn't enough—not personal enough, not weighty enough. You can't hold digital thanks in your hands the way you can hold a note. When was the last time you printed out an e-card? Right. Email is read and deleted. A mailed note is seen again and again on a desk or counter. Would you rather your thanks be remembered or deleted?
There are two common reasons people don't write thank-you notes. The biggest excuse is not having the materials at hand. Note cards or stationery that reflect your personality, a roll of stamps, pens and an address book—one trip to the store and you're all set.
The second excuse is not having time. A handwritten thanks is often as short as three sentences, just like an email. If you want to talk about your bike trip last summer, do it in a letter. The thank-you note is special; it's to express your appreciation, so keep the focus there. Does it take longer to address and stamp an envelope than to click "send"—yes, but by about one minute. A minute well spent to say thanks well.

Growing a garden is fairly straightforward. Plant the seeds in fertile soil, water them, and let the sun shine down to do the rest. By comparison, growing your HVAC business feels like a mysterious magic trick, but really it comes down to almost the same principles.


Nathan Matson of Twin Valley, Minnesota has felt the sting of the economy and escaped it, for now.
"You think you're going to work with these great people in a great studio and you're going to make money, and all of a sudden you find yourself broke and looking for work, without health benefits, and you have to do your own taxes. I thought I could tough it out," he told me.
So he and his wife, who's studying international business, escaped to the Fargo Moorhead area. "Economically speaking, this was the place to live. You get to a point in life where you know you can live somewhere else for cheaper and get the same out of it, so why not? Maybe it doesn't make much sense to pay $800 a month when I can pay $500 a month," he said.
The region "feels like it hasn't been hit as bad," according to Matson. The cost of living is low, some companies are hiring, and the large number of colleges and universities has insulated many people from the cyclical economy. In Moorhead in particular, education is a business and there's plenty of concern that state cuts to higher education are going to hurt it.
What he's not sure how to do is pay off the accumulating student loan debt. By the time he graduates next year, it'll be $60,000-$70,000.
He wonders if it's been worth it.
"I say, 'Easy for you to say. You're not the one who'll have to cut $700 a month out of the paycheck for 30 years.' And if you don't have a job, you still have to pay these loans. So it starts to eat at you," he said.
