Array-ne This guide manual is an evolving document for The May 18 Memorial Foundation’s international interns on human rights. It was organized by surviving victims of the 1980 Gwangju Democratic Uprising, the victims’ families, and the citizens of Gwangju. Since its establishment, the Foundation has carried out numerous projects in varying fields, including organizing memorial events, establishing scholarships, fostering research, disseminating public information, publishing relevant materials, dispensing charity and welfare benefits, building international solidarity, and awarding the Gwangju Prize for Human Rights. The International Internship Programme The International Internship Programme will strive to contribute to the development of democracy and human rights throughout Asia by recruiting four interns from all over the world, who have been working for human rights and peace organizations in their own countries, and by giving them a chance to learn about and experience the history and process of the development of human rights and democracy in South Korea. Activities of the International Internship Programme 2006The International Internship Program will introduce the interns to Korean history in general and in particular to the movements and struggle for democracy, including the 1980 Gwangju Democratic Uprising. Both theoretical learning and practical experiences such as lectures, seminars, discussions, interviews and fieldtrips to the sites of democratization movements in Korea will be utilized.The International Internship Programme will also require its interns to submit reports concerning the human rights situation in their home countries, as well as on the interns own experiences and work. To receive official permission to enter the Republic of Korea you will need the following documents: (Do not forget to carry all these documents in your hand luggage!) - Your valid international passport, containing your visa (if applicable) - Your Gwangju International Internship Programme invitation letter - Evidence that you intend to leave the Republic of Korea at the end of the program (normally your round air-ticket will suffice) If you did not obtain your visa before your departure from your home country, the immigration officer at the airport may refuse your entry. Before you leave Incheon International Airport for Gwangju, please telephone and inform the May 18 Memorial Foundation of your arrival time and destination in Gwangju. The express bus from Incheon International Airport to Gwangju Bus Terminal is highly recommended for your convenience. In the case that you take a bus to Gwangju from Incheon International Airport, you will need to have on hand approximately 35,000 Korean won (about US5). * For more detailed information on the arrival procedure, please refer to Incheon International Airport website: http://www.airport.or.kr/eng/airport/ You can get information on buses to Gwangju and purchase the bus ticket at the Transportation Information Counter on the arrival floor of the airport passenger terminal. The map of the arrival floor of Incheon International Airport and the bus schedule from Incheon Airport to Gwangju Bus Terminal are below: Domestic Flight. Near the city is a cultural park, home to the Gwangju National Museum with priceless historical and archaeological relics and the Gwangju City Folk Museum, which is the third largest city museum in Korea and is an excellent window into various aspects of Korean culture such as traditional Korean cuisine, time-honored Korean customs, folk games, and shamanistic rituals. For those interested in art, the Gwangju Culture and Art Center, the Gwangju City Art Gallery and the inner-city’s Art Street can be visited. GIC was established by the Gwangju City Government and Gwangju Citizens Solidarity in 1999 as a model of governmental and NGO collaboration. Its mission is to provide foreigners with information and services, promoting an international exchange in the fields of culture and economy and fostering international awareness among Korean youth through active involvement in helping the international community of Gwangju and Jeolla-namdo.

-ne My friend Paris sent me a great article about Grups, which couldn’t have come at a better time since both Paris and I just increased our age by another year and I know I was feeling pretty sorry for myself. I think it’s great that Sternbergh explored Grups in such depth, because I know that over in Europe, being trendy at any age has been the norm for many years - I remember 10 years ago being in London around my Grup friends, feeling completely at ease with them because they felt like peers despite that they were 10-15 years older than me.

Busquei investigar se Ele era real e não consegui.Pois crer não é uma conquista, não é resultado de um esforço.Ninguém pode acreditar na existência de Deus se somente se entregar à leitura de muitos livros, de toda a enciclopédia das religiões e de todas as Escrituras Sagradas.Deus não é conhecimento que se adquire,nem costumes desenvolvidos, nem templo, nem prece, nem veste.Tudo isso é refutável e efêmero, pois podem vir outros conhecimentos, outros costumes, outras preces, outras vestes.A fé em Deus está menos na conquista e mais na experiência.

The large-and-in-charge co-host of The View - looking to tighten up after getting a breast lift (with implants) and losing 150 pounds (with gastric bypass surgery) - asked her manager to set up free private lessons at S Factor gym, where owner Sheila Kelley teaches her charges to use a stripper pole. Despite e-mails that show otherwise, a spokesman for Star said it was Kelley who approached her.OK, I am the first to admit that Star Jones is a grasping, freebie-obsessed, staggeringly unlikable person–but large-and-in-charge? If I was Star Jones I would be beyond pissed that I lost 150 pounds and was still described as large-and-in-charge.

We send in JoAnna to inquire about a table, as she is wearing black shoes and the rest of us are feeling decidedly underdressed in our Chaco sandals. JoAnna and I arrive at breakfast, where Liz & Ryan are finishing off delicious-looking meals of eggs with sizzled tomatoes and whole mushrooms. I am on my third mouthful when I feel a tell-tale dryness of throat, swollen lips, foul taste on the tongue: I have eaten something I shouldn’t have. It may be in my mind, but I can feel the poisoned mouthful spreading through my cheeks and tongue and into my bloodstream. Usually I spit out the offending mouthful, feel sore-stomached and ill-tempered for a few hours, and then back to normal. “We buy the most expensive granola,” he says apologetically, “because it has so many nuts in it!” I am feeling like an idiot, in addition to feeling like puking. As I throw up, I feel something in my mouth, like a long noodle that I can’t quite pull out of my throat. “JoAnna, I say, starting to feel alarmed. My empty stomach feels no more pain, and I sense the invader has been removed, but my throat is not right. “I think we should go to emergency,” JoAnna says. “Your husband has epilepsy, and is having a seizure?” She looks at me, and her expression says, He doesn’t look like he’s having a seizure… JoAnna looks ready to burst, but she is in her domain now. “Lie down here,” JoAnna says, putting me on a table, and pulls the doctor out of his office. I am starting to shiver and feel my heart pound from the epinephrine. I turn weakly to JoAnna and say, “I think maybe you’re right about the epi-pen.” Next: the crusaders come to town…

Marx establishes the connection between agriculture and industry as follows:In the period of the stormy growth of capitalist production, prod­uctivity in industry develops rapidly as compared with agriculture, although its development presupposes that a significant change as between constant and variable capital has already taken place in agriculture, that is, a large number of people have been driven off the land. A landlord class extracted an absolute rent from tenant fanners and consumed rather than invested this surplus-value as capital (Marx, Capital Vol. This barrier to agricultural investment prevented a cheapening of the elements of constant capital (raw materials) and wage goods (food etc) in industry acting as a brake on the expansion of industrial capital.The consequence was a prolonged period of relative economic stag­nation, of small booms punctuated by commercial crises, and accompanied by agricultural labourer’s riots, Chartist demonstrations, overpopulat­ion, pauperism and crime (Hobsbawm, Industry, 56-108).Thus the encumbrance of landed property to the further develop­ment of industrial productivity (relative surplus-value) was expressed politically and ideologically as a class struggle between the landlords and the industrial bourgeoisie. of the British social formation comprising economic, political and ideological levels, were grafted onto pre-capitalist formations, producing a hybrid type of colony.3.2 The Penetration of the Capitalist ModeIt follows that the penetration of the CMP into the Maori social formation occurred at all three levels -economic, political and ideological. 33) shows how free land is a hindrance to capital accumulation of a different sort to landed property, since it prevents the formation of a wage-labour class without its means of subsistence. While it is true that in the period up to 1890, a landed squattocracy controlling large landholdings did exist, this was in the nature of extensive capitalist farming of wool and wheat, and did not constitute a barrier to capital investment in increasing agricultural productivity. Following the classical political economy, this view does not recognise exploitative class relations or the capitalist nature of the state. The finance capitalist provided capital for the land, and the banker backed them both and directed customers to them. They accum­ulated rather than consumed the surplus-value off the land, facilitat­ing the circuit of capital into agricultural production in the form of productive capital, providing money capital for investment in the nascent branches of industrial capital in N.Z., and of course re-circulating money capital into British and other international circuits.While Marx and others have written on the articulation of CMP and Peasant Modes, there is no fully developed theory of what we have call called the PFM in the white-settler states. It seems to us that the potential of this form of articulation has been underestimated in circ­umstances where it is introduced into a semi-colonial setting character­ised by (a) an absence of feudal landed property, (b) the dominance of a capitalist comprador class, and (c) in association with a highly interventionist, modernising local state. Normally under capitalist production relations in agriculture absolute rent is by definition marked up on top of average profit from farming since no capitalist farmer would invest his capital at below average profit and no landlord will let him use the land without paying rent.Now at first glance, there would seem to be little relevance in all this to the N.Z. Our general thesis was that whilst monopoly over landed property (‘modern landed property’) was never established in N.Z., this was replaced by another form of monopoly, that of finance capital, owned by the comprador class. We are referring here to DR1 which Marx defines as the varying yields from land of equal area with equal applications of constant capital, arising out of differences in fertility and location with respect to the market (Capital Vol. The family smallholder ends up with a less than average rate of enterprise profit and turns a monopoly rent over to the merchant comprador in the same way as the English tenants turned over rent to their landlord as the condition of their being permitted to invest capital in his land (Capital Vol. III, 626).In our example, the comprador class, therefore, inserts itself in an intermediary position between the dominant capitalist mode and the depend­ent PFM forcing prices received by the PFM down low enough so that, even after modification by monopoly margins, the market price was still low enough to be competitive.Unequal exchange, as it operates here, is a form of monopoly rent extracted by a comprador class from the surplus value produced in agriculture as a consequence of that class’s control over the movement of capital into that branch of production. The State’s activities may be summarised as intervention in the PFM to sustain extended reproduction by limiting the monopoly control of the comprador class over the movement of capital. The State operates to redirect some of this transfer of surplus value back into the PFM by means of subsidies paid out of general tax revenues.In addition to this conventional form of unequal exchange, we have added another relating to the monopoly ownership of capital by the comprador class. In terms of the interlocking circuit model, the semi-colonial State, therefore, encourages the reproduction of international capital by transferring value in the form of State subsidies into agriculture, hence countering the tendency for agricultural production to stagnate.To conclude our analysis of unequal exchange in agriculture it follows that the transfer of value out of agriculture, made possible by the combination of 1) a modern progressive form of land tenure in the semi-colony, 2) high differential rent and, 3) State intervention, provided a source of capital which could be used to ‘develop’ from the initial limited interlock of British capital with the PFM, through the establishment of branches of domestic manufacturing, to the present complete penetration of industrial capital into all branches of production accounting for 3 to 4 times as much as agriculture in the statistics on national production (Year Book, 1977).What is quite distinctive about this development is that while it followed a sequence of ‘stages’ from the introduction of the PFM, to simple manufacturing, to later advanced production by international capital, it did so at a much more rapid rate than the original capitalist transition because it occurred in the context of the already established CMP and as the result of a highly interventionist local state. This meant that the pre-conditions for capitalist manufacture, namely 1)- capitalist dominated agriculture, 2)- wage-labour, 3)- industrial capital and 4)- a market, were rapidly realised by means of their displacement from the British social formation and their re-location in the semi-colony by the agency of the local state. We saw that the accumulation of capital from the PFM, whether by the comprador class or the peasant bourgeoisie, was suf­ficient to increase agricultural production. It also provided the necessary money capital for investment as productive capital in the industrial cir­cuit as soon as the combination of conditions required for domestic man­ufacturing occurred. This conjunction came about during the Long Depress­ion when the pool of unemployed drove down the value of labour-power to the point where the local cost of production (at low organic composition and high absolute rates of exploitation of men, women and children) together with tariff protection (in 1888) made domestic import sub­stitution of some commodities profitable for the local capitalist class (Sutch, Poverty, 106).Apart from the development of primary processing industries, either cooperatively owned, or owned by capitalists (see (11) above), and their more recent extension into areas such as paper pulp etc., the three main branches of domestic manufacturing established after 1880 were:(1) - Production of Wage-Goods: articles of consumption for the working-class, beginning with clothing, shoes etc., and incorporating a widening range of commodities entering into the value of labour-power E.g. TV’s, domestic appliances, motor cars (see (9) above).(2) - Production of Capital Goods for Agriculture: the local product­ion of previously imported machinery, farm implements, topdressing aircraft etc.(3) - Production of Capital Goods for the Wage-Goods branch: a more recent tendency since as we pointed out in 2.5, the production of capital goods is usually the speciality of the Industrial Circuit in the core capitalist states, e.g. steel for construction, plastics for cons­umer durables etc.Though these domestic branches of production were established and sustained by means of state protection (tariffs and import controls etc) they nonetheless represented a new source of surplus-value product­ion open to international capital. Arising out of the total circuit of capital therefore, it is possible to determine the form in which the social relation, wage-labour and capital, expresses itself in the contemporary N.Z. But while the PWC produces C’ it is only one part of the total proletariat (defined as being dis­possessed of capital) which functions to circulate capital through its various moments of the circuit, all of whom can be defined as reprod­uctive workers. This function is performed by employees of capital, public servants on behalf of private capital (e.g. )(c) Circulation Workers: all those wage and salary earners who are concerned with the circulation of M’ as money capital and its convers­ion into productive capital (exchange for MP and LP) in new productive circuits. State circulation workers are those involved in all forms of administration of the public revenue, that is the transfer of s (taxes) from gross wages and salaries, and profits, into all types of productive consump­tion as capital: first, in the state’s own productive enterprises, and second, all kinds of subsidies to the private sector’s productive branches. etc, together with service workers in the production and realisation divisions.( See Graphic 22)(e) Domestic Workers: This Category of worker is usually ignored by bourgeois economists and placed outside the work1ng-class by Marxists on the grounds that the labour performed is not exchanged for variable capital and is therefore not productive, nor is it exchang­ed for wages or revenue. social formation with the working-class now comprising about 90% of the active working population, and the capitalist class about 10%.(Note: It should be emphasised that the identification of the working-class at the level of production relations deliberately excludes the fashionable concept of the ‘function of capital’ The basic point however, is that the difference between these categories is not one given in the relations of production, those who have some function in supervising labour, are not owners of capital in the sense of controlling both means of production and labour process, so whatever differences exist between the immediate interests of the various categories of wage-labour - productive/unproductive, private sector/state, supervisory/non-supervisory etc. In terms of numbers of individuals, the group is small (about 100) but they can be defined as the ruling class because they control (actually own) the MP and LP that is brought together in capitalist production in the N.Z. But in fact, what was occurring as the result of falling prof­its, was a redistribution of the surplus-value in favour of the manag­erial group within the ruling class, who received an average or above average rate of profit on their capital, since their dividends were augmented by payments disguised in other forms. First, they determine the distribution of surplus-value between the various capitalist and other class fractions within the limits imposed on the reproduction of capitalist social relations due to the contrad­ictions within the CMP (see next section). As a result, capitalist social relations were established in agriculture, and in domestic manufacturing, developing into class struggles between peas­ants and compradors (see 3.4) and between wage-labour and industrial capitalist classes. (Poulantzas, Classes, Intro) .It is clear that the serious challenge to the reproduction of capitalist social relations posed by the rise of union militancy, forced the ruling class to rely much more heavily on the state’s reproductive functions in maintaining social unity and cohesion. In so doing, it was in turn able to finance the rising living standards and social services of the working-class and continue state subsidies to capitalist production by means of the rising productivity of labour-power. Yaffe) assume that state intervention in the economy is a drain on the surplus-value going to the capitalist class thereby lowering the average rate of profit. by creating new surplus-value, and (b) the fact that the state extracts surplus-value from the working class (which would not otherwise have gone to the capitalist) in the form of taxation. Thus over the post-war period increased productivity has created more value, but the state has actively intervened in the class struggle for shares of the newly created value by extracting a portion that would have entered into the historical component of the value of labour-power, and cunningly redistributed it to capital. Wright, Class, Crisis and the State)More recently, however, the costs of maintaining the levels of social welfare spending to sustain the illusion of equal opportunity in education, health and so on, has put a strain on the state’s fiscal resources, leading to the general situation of cuts in state spending, increased taxation, and the redistribution of state revenue from less productive to more productive branches such as export manufacturing. Now that the rate of accumulation has slowed down, the state’s efforts in sustaining accumulation require it to redistribute surplus-value from the working-class to the capitalist class.

It has 35 students enrolled, though last class maybe 25 showed up–on the second day of class. I’ve had migrant worker students who picked onions and strawberries next to their parents, and I know that’s back-breaking work with very little remuneration. Worse, we’re in a class with the desks affixed to the ground, so students can’t effectively work in small groups without someone wrenching her back. I can be an engaging lecturer, but writing my notes and finding images and music takes soooo much prep time and energy that I should be investing in my dissertation, and I’m not sure it always pays off in terms of student learning.So I’m thinking about lecturing on Mondays for 45 minutes or so, following up with an hour of small group work (a fun activity–this past Monday it was analyzing the material culture of offices in the 1890s: chairs, desks, dictaphones, and typewriters based on photos and old advertisements) based on lecture and the reading for that day. And then on Wednesdays I’ll have students do exclusively small-group work based on all the reading and lecturing done to date.

In a 1 hour 10 minute news conference today, David Stern said he was betrayed by a rouge, isolated ciminal. This criminal is referee Tim Donaghy.I feel betrayed by what happened on behalf of the sport, regardless of how protective Ive been. This is not something that is anything other than an act of betrayal of what we know in sports as a sacred trust.” ~ David SternDonaghy is being investigated on terms of betting on NBA games (including some he refed) as well as giving inside information to others. Stern said to the media that refs arent allowed to disclose information about schedules to anyone besides their immediate family.I can tell you that this is the most serious situation and worst situation that I have ever experienced either as a fan of the NBA, a lawyer for the NBA or a commissioner of the NBA. /home/sybex Stern is a 23 year NBA commissionerDonaghy did have a history of incidents. In 2005, he was barred from refing the second round of playoffs after a dispute with his neighbors. He also had nothing on his record that would suggest he was a problem gambler.Nonetheless, Stern has now found himself in the biggest NBA scandel in history. It comes at the same time as two other commissioners find themselves in quandries as well.MLB commissioner Bud Selig is torn on whether or not to be in attendance when Barry Bonds, a suspected steriod user, breaks Hank Aarons all-time home run mark. He cites that Bowie Kuhn was not there when Aaron broke Babe Ruths record, but public outcry as strong fo him to attend.NFL commissioner Roger Goodell finds himself in perhaps the worst situation of the three. Star, black quarterback Michael Vick faces an indictment of dog fighting and Goodell has heard outcry from animal rights activists, fans, and the media alike.But which of these three find themselves in the worst situation?The NBA is trying to grow on an international level and this gambling scandal certainly will effect how people in other countries see the sport. Stern did overcome the Brawl at the Palace, but knowing that referees may not be calling games fairly is a dent that may take a long time to fix.As for the NFL and Michael Vick, Goodell ultimately has control over what the lasting image of this incident is. He has already taken one step in the right direction by ordering him away from Falcons training camp. But if he is convicted, Goodell must take the necessary step of banning Vick from the league for good.Selig created the steriods problem so why shouldnt he have to fix it. Bonds records legitimacy will forever be talked about especially if Bonds is found to have perjured himself when he said he never knowingly took steriods. If Selig can eliminate the performance-enhancers from baseball, he will go down as one of the best commissioners ion baseball history. But, that is very unlikely.As for image, the NBA has it worst, as for human emotion, the NFL has it worse, as for best position to make everything better, the MLB is in the lead. But overall, the damage that the gambling scandal has done to NBA officials integrity is by far the worst incident facing a major sport right now.

From the Exodus from Egypt when they wished that God had not brought them out, to when the Kings of both Israel and Judea did not revere God, to the rejection of Jesus Christ, to now where Atheism is widely accepted as a norm, men has always sought to rebel against God even though He has manifested Himself through His creation and revelation.But the Psalms state upon God’s judgement will come upon those who constantly rebel against Him.

GREAT IDEA! Brought to us by the special land interests of Berkeley, CaliforniaEast Bay ExpressGive Cal Plan the AxRetrofitting Memorial Stadium for a quake will be a futile waste of countless millions.By Chris Thompson Take a half-dozen granola-and-sandals activists, give them surnames like Runningwolf and Butterfly, stick ‘em in a few trees, and sic the University of California on them, and you’ve got the makings of a perfect Berkeley story. And so the national press has waggled after the latest town-gown controversy, in which university officials want to build a 20 million athletic training center to boost their newly bemuscled football program, and crunchy eco-acolytes (and even a curmudgeonly ex-mayor or two) have put their bodies on the line to stop them. Last month, the city successfully snagged an interim injunction against proceeding with the construction, which would have done away with a smallish oak grove and apparently struck at the heart of a key part of what made this town the third most sustainable city, according to the eco-wonks at SustainLane.com. It also would have highlighted UC’s imperial arrogance, made dozens of squirrels homeless, contributed to global warming via the sweat of middle linebackers; you know the drill. But as usual, the most important element of the story — the true folly of the university’s plan — went unnoticed.But where to play? How ’bout the Coliseum?The issue isn’t really the training center, which could be located in any number of different areas in or around campus. It’s the California Memorial Stadium itself, which is the heart of the sports complex university officials want to reinvigorate. The stadium is an 84-year-old seismic deathtrap, built right on top of the Hayward fault, and the western half of it is slowly moving north, ripping at the foundations. Officials need to build the training center so they can move their jocks and coaches out of the stadium before a massive quake hits and buries them beneath a pile of rubble that used to be bleacher seats. Fine and good; since they work there five days a week, getting them out of the complex would surely save their lives. But then Cal administrators want to do something truly stupid: spend a fortune retrofitting the stadium itself.No one truly knows just how much that would cost. UC Berkeley spokeswoman Marie Felde claims that Cal’s engineers haven’t even done the math yet. Theyre not that far into the design process,” she said. “Nobody wants to guess.” But according to Craig Comartin, a structural engineer who has studied the schematics for UC Berkeley, the project would probably cost in the order of “tens of millions.” For Cisco de Vries, a spokesman for Mayor Tom Bates, the universitys very refusal to finish designing the retrofit and related projects is exactly the sort of irresponsible and arrogant planning that prompted the lawsuit in the first place. Until there’s some understanding of what it will take for the stadium to be safe, how can we be making decisions involving hundreds of millions of dollars? he said. That’s a big part of our concern. The mayor says we want them to figure out at the very least what they’re going to do with the stadium first.But this much we know: The universitys stated objective is to save the lives of the approximately 73,000 fans who could be caught attending the Big Game when the Big One hits.Take a closer look at those odds. Seismologists claim that in any given year theres a 1 percent chance of a major quake along the Hayward fault. Cal plays between six and eight games a year at the stadium, and once the training facilities and administrative offices are relocated, these games are the only times a significant number of lives will be at risk. In other words, the university is about to spend tens of millions of dollars to prepare for a disaster that has a one-in-25,000 chance of happening.But where would we play football, you ask? Where would we watch Jeff Tedfords Bears crush Stanfords spirits for a generation? Funny you should ask. University planners dont just want to retrofit the stadium; they want to beef up its concession outlets and slap on some new lights, luxury boxes, and press offices. There just happens to be a facility that already boasts all of these amenities, and its owners — you and me — will be desperate for new tenants very shortly. Its called McAfee Coliseum, and now that the Oakland As are planning to split for Fremont, Saturdays just happen to be free. With one lease agreement — and given Oaklands pathetic history of giving away the store, Cal officials can count on that agreement being very lucrative indeed

The Tigers will now face Texas A&M in San Antonio for the right to play in the Elite Eight.Going into the matchup with Nevada, it was obvious that the big concerns for the Tigers would be Nick Fazekas and Marcelus Kemp. Kemp hit several big shots, made several key plays, and was a handful for Tiger defenders all day long.Today’s game confirmed my opinion on Nick Fazekas - overrated. Kemp will be a better NBA player.Starting out, and throughout the entire game, the Tigers were shaky around the basket. There’s no question that the Tigers should have been up by at least 10 - missed layups, missed 3’s, defensive lapses cost them.All of that could have cost the Tigers dearly. The Tigers had to play the final minutes without him, and may be without him in San Antonio. Robert Dozier was fantastic throughout the game, but he came up huge late - he made play after play, including a sequence where he grabbed two massive rebounds. If Dozier can continue to play like this, the Tigers will be hard to beat.

She is not concerned that my fundal height is two weeks behind my dates since it also has grown consistently.I left with a prescription for Pep.cid because I’ve had a few episodes of waking up to find that (TMI alert) my most recent meal has traveled back up my esophagus and into my throat and nasal passage. I had tried to avoid this by changing my eating patterns such that I have my biggest and most complex meal at lunchtime - e.g., yesterday I had an XL salmon nicoise salad at lunch, then just had cereal and a banana for dinner at the judiciously early hour of 6:30pm, but I still got to meet that light meal again at about 11pm.

US inflation accelerated in January.Consumer prices surged 0.7 percent last month, above Wall Street forecasts for a 0.5 percent increase, as energy costs soared. But the closely watched core Consumer Price Index, which excludes volatile food and energy costs, rose just 0.2 percent, matching expectations…Over the past year, consumer prices have climbed 4 percent, the largest 12-month increase since October 2005 and an acceleration from December’s 3.4 percent increase… On a year-over-year basis, core prices were up 2.1 percent, however, a slowdown from December’s 2.2 percent increase and in-line with Wall Street forecasts…In a separate report, the Labor Department said real average weekly earnings fell 0.2 percent in January, the first decline since September, after a 0.5 percent gain in December. Average weekly earnings have risen 3.6 percent since January 2005, but since inflation has risen even faster, real earnings remain 0.4 percent lower than a year earlier.Markets, however, apparently focused on the core inflation rate.Major U.S. stock indexes rose, with traders focusing on the core CPI and a more than drop in oil prices. Treasury debt prices also rose, while the U.S. dollar pared gains following the report.However, Michael Bryan, posting at the macroblog, looked at the data sliced a number of different ways and they tell a pretty consistent story

Layton proposed tough new rules to stop what he calls an agenda by his political rivals that have put medicare on a precarious path towards privatization.Make no mistake about it, medicare is being sabotaged by people who claim to be protecting it: Paul Martin, Ralph Klein, Stephen Harper, Jean Charest and Gordon Campbell are all on the same wavelength, Layton said.They want to open Canadas health system to the profiteers. Layton described the ruling as one that may have opened the door to private providers to break our single-pay system.He went on to accuse Alberta premier Ralph Klein and Quebec Premier Jean Charest of harbouring wrong-headed plans to take advantage of that ruling. And Canadians need to know that Paul Martin and Stephen Harper would both let them do it.The New Democrat Leader said his party will defend public health care in the next parliament by:-refusing to permit the dismantling of Canada’s single-payer medicare system;

Array Views of the Master of the Nets Garden, SuzhouIf by garden you are thinking grass, trees and flowers, by the way, you need to adjust your image. Couple’s Garden, SuzhouThe contrast between the smaller gardens, such as the Master of Nets Garden and the Couple’s Garden, and the Humble Administrator’s Garden is striking. Having plodded through the old city to get to it (about 5 km from my hostel, plus I had walked a fair bit round and about in the morning), I was quite leg-weary, although with travel and hostels for later in the week sorted out, I was in too good spirits to get too annoyed with the Chinese for walking in front of my camera on each occasion I saw a good photo or for barging me aside when they saw one or even for yelling at each other (for people whose major religions centre around the quest for peace, the Chinese sure do like to pump up the volume).

On the way up the Chacaloochee Bay to the Spanish River and my first rest stop, recorded one mile splits of 10:35, 12:23, 11:55, 11:32, 11:03 and made it to the Pontoon Saloon in 1:05:00 for the 5.62 miles. Along the way, the water was flat to just a flutter of chop, with mullet flying and a couple of gators out cruising across in front of me.I continued north up to the turn on the Mobile River, completing most of the trip against the downriver rain flow. My splits were 12:40 and 4:41 for a total of 1:22:22 over the 7 miles so far. On the way to the high bridge, my mile splits were 9:00, 8:29 and 7:52 for 0.84 mi. My next mile splits were 9:43, 9:06, 8:43 and 7:04 for 0.81 mi. Now I wonder what the next set of passengers did yesterday and whether they got on today or what the new schedule is.My splits going around to Mobile Bay were 8:23 and 3:40 for 0.34 mi. I rested in the shade under the Causeway bridge and then made my last push home with a last split of 10:08 for 0.93 mi. and a grand total of 3:00:10 over the total distance of 17.5 miles.

This is fairly dependent on project location, in some instances project generated power can be sold back to the local power grid.Credit 3 – Additional Commissioning: Receive points for Cx design review (DD and CD), review of select submittals, re-commissioning management manual, post occupancy/end of warranty review (seasonal testing, review of operation and outstanding issues).Credit 4 - Elimination of HCFC’s and Halons: Requires HVAC and fire suppression equipment that does not use HCFC refrigerants or Halons. The Cx Authority can produce the Measurement and Verification Plan.Credit 6 – Green Power: Requires using power generated from renewable sources for a two year period.Water Efficiency-5 pointsCredit 3 – Water Use Reduction: Requires reducing the consumption of potable water by % less than the baseline calculated for the building after meeting the Energy Policy Act of 1992. The Cx process will verify calibration and initial setpoints of the sensors and verify equipment reactions to high levels.Credit 2 – Increased Ventilation Effectiveness: Requires mechanically ventilated buildings to have air change effectiveness rating greater than or equal to 0.9 (requires specialized tracer gas testing), or a design narrative that describes compliance with ASHRAE Fundamentals Chapter 31 – Space Air Diffusion (points are easier to achieve if the design implements this from the get go).

I liked these verses so much today that I used two versions to relay the Word. I pray they touch your life today as well. Peace.Amplified Bible9 Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and He will say, Here I am. If you take away from your midst yokes of oppression [wherever you find them], the finger pointed in scorn [toward the oppressed or the godly], and every form of false, harsh, unjust, and wicked speaking,10 And if you pour out that with which you sustain your own life for the hungry and satisfy the need of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in darkness, and your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday.11 And the Lord shall guide you continually and satisfy you in drought and in dry places and make strong your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not.12 And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of [buildings that have laid waste for] many generations; and you shall be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.The Message A Full Life in the Emptiest of Places (9-12)If you get rid of unfair practices,quit blaming victims,quit gossiping about other peoples sins,If you are generous with the hungryand start giving yourselves to the down-and-out,Your lives will begin to glow in the darkness,your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight.I will always show you where to go.Ill give you a full life in the emptiest of places
