REMEMBER TO SUBSCRIBE! I HAVE PLENTY OF OTHER AGE OF EMPIRES 2 VIDEOS! Don’t understand how to play online: www.youtube.com Essentially this match covers a great deal in an effective economic opening strategy. I demonstrate how to fast castle (hit the Castle Age very fast with a good economy) and how to defend against a crush. I also counter back with an ever stronger and more effective crush than my AI opponent. Looking back on this match I could have reached the castle age much faster if I didnt wait for that last villager to keep making, my population was a bit higher than it needed to be. Also the AI for the first time in a long time, actually caught me off guard. I honestly didn’t expect an attack from Mangudai at 15:00 minutes in. So that changed the course of the game a lot, but in the end, I conquered him. I was playing as the Celts to demonstrate how to play a civ with no significant economic bonuses that would change the fast castle strategy. Besides of course the wood bonus. Thanks for watching, please remember to rate/comment/subscribe to motivate me to keep making more videos. For all of you that subscribed last video helped me get this video out much earlier that I was planning on doing it. In order to fast castle effectively: I recommend you watch the video in the beginning a few more times till you can sort of mimic what happens. Essentially always start by building as many villagers as you can at your town center and immediately take your starting …

The Pelican Brief (1993) — starring Julia Roberts and Denzel Washington
An effort to save a preserve for endangered pelicans and other birds inadvertently causes the murder of Supreme Court justices — or something very close to that.

Give your answer to this question below!

Gun Control: While I believe that guns should be kept out of the hands of dangerous criminals, I support the second amendment. Defend your home, go out and hunt, just be safe. I believe it is unnecessarily to tax guns and ammunition on top of the already existing state sales tax.

Abortion: More pro life than pro choice. I do not believe that it should be outlawed fully, but believe that after the first few weeks, it should be outlawed due to the fact that the fetus is now conscious and feels the pain of the abortion. At this stage, it should be done only to save the life of the mother. Also, abortion should not be a free service, it should be a service you pay for, unless it is a case of rape, incest, or if the mother would die in child birth. This eliminates abortion as birth control and creates revenue for the government.

Affirmative action: Harmful to true equality. Obama is wrong to support it.

Military: Raise the salaries of our heroes and increase funding to troops in Afghanistan. Catching Bin Laden is a top priority. This is something I praise Obama for doing.

Economy/stimulus money: Should be going specifically to education, tax cuts, pay raises for military personal, and public works projects for green energy jobs.

Taxes: Cut them. I do not believe in trickle down economics, I do not believe it works. However, although I don’t believe in taxing the working class, I believe that taxing the wealthy into oblivion is unnecessary. The wealthy should be paying a lower, but existing tax rate, and that combined with cutting wasteful spending can lead to a budget surplus.

Immigration: If they get a visa, work for equal wages in the competitive market, they are welcome in my book. This is the land of opportunity. But, if they hop the fence and take American jobs for half pay, immediate deportation. No amnesty, and increase border patrol funding. An immigrant should not be eligible for workers compensation if they are not legal residents.

I consider myself a moderate, blue dog democrat. A JFK democrat and Teddy Roosevelt progressive. I voted for Obama and generally approve of him, but do think there are some things he has done wrong. I can’t see myself voting against him in 2012. Again, I am a democrat, just not a liberal. I voted for Bill Richardson in the NH primary. Above are the issues where I either partially or fully agree with the republicans. I support the democrats on all other issues, such as Iraq withdrawal, same sex marriage, health care reform, stem cell research, anti-torture, medicaid and medicare, and welfare (as long as it is temporary for laid off workers and not a way of life)
I believe that cutting all the wasteful spending both in and out of the stimulus package would cause the budget to balance.

On March 23rd of this year, I put out a video titled Financial Terrorism in America.” The video reported on a recent news story that was uncovered by the Blaze.com where former SEIU executive Stephen Lerner, and former Green Jobs czar and self-avowed Communist Van Jones were organizing a mass protest against Wall Street, and the banks. Lerner and Van Jones were calling for American citizens to march against the banks in an effort to end capitalism. Now the mainstream media wants us to believe that the Occupy Wall Street protests are merely a grassroots uprising, even though they are exactly what Lerner and Van Jones called for back in March. Teaming up with the liberal organization moveon.org, they are even calling for this movement to create a “new” American Dream.

Indian economist Amartya Sen, winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences, spoke recently with IDRC President David Malone. The conversation took place in Boston, where Sen is Thomas W. Lamont University Professor and Professor of Economics and Philosophy at Harvard University. The dialogue was part of the Speakers of Renown series, held in honour of IDRC’s 40th anniversary. Sen’s collaboration with the Centre goes back to the organization’s earliest days. He observed to Malone, “IDRC has been such a glory of achievement.” In the lively discussion, Sen and Malone addressed a range of topics: the private versus public provision of healthcare services, indicators of national progress (such as the Human Development Index, which Sen helped create) the role of higher education and the revival of India’s ancient Nalanda University, India’s “green revolution,” and the security of fresh water supplies.

On the 12th of September on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks the Polish Institute of International Affairs organized a seminar under the title 9/11 TEN YEARS ON: Past Experiences and Future Challenges Different Perspectives on Countering Terrorism in the 21st Century.
The event was opened by the director of the Polish Institute of International Affairs Dr. Marcin Zaborowski who spoke about the fundamental changes in security policy following September 11 and the new types of threats that the world is facing today. In the keynote speech delivered by His Excellency Lee Feinstein, Ambassador of the United States to Poland the role of international cooperation in the fight against terrorism was addressed with a stress on the tasks and challenges of the American society in this respect.
Guest speakers Ryszard Machnikowski from the University of ?ód?, Marcin Piotrowski Senior Analyst at PISM and Martina Strong Political-Economic Counselor at the United States Embassy in Poland shared their views on the achievements and failures of countering terrorism during the past ten years. Marcin Piotrowski presented the Asian perspective explaining the significant role South-Asia plays in the activity of al-Qaeda. Martina Strong outlined the three dimensions of the American war on terrorism: military, ideological and that of broad international cooperation, pointing also to the lessons of the American experience in the interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan. Presenting the European perspective on the topic Ryszard Machnikowski emphasized the significance of the global character of the fight against terrorism and the implications of technological development on it.
In the last part of the seminar the floor was opened for the audience. During the several rounds of questions addressed to the guest speakers various issues were touched, for instance the financial aspect of anti-terrorism in the shadow of the global economic crisis, the consequences of the Norwegian terrorist attack for the future of global terrorism and Poland as a potential target of terrorist activities during the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship.

Second Day of Building Place Stage at 2011 Michigan Municipal League Convention in Grand Rapids During ArtPrize


Image by Michigan Municipal League (MML)
The theme of the 2011 Michigan Municipal League Convention was Placemaking. Placemaking is about building communities where people want to live work and play. Practicing what it preaches, the League created the Center for 21st Century Communities: www.mml.org/resources/21c3/about.html. This program identifies eight assets that make for vibrant communities: physical design and walkability, green initiatives, cultural and economic development, entrepreneurship, multiculturalism, messaging and technology, transit and education. The League had its Convention in Grand Rapids during ArtPrize this year because the city and ArtPrize show several of these assets at work. To help illustrate the building place them the League staff created a unique stage that evolved over the three day conference. Using miniature construction workers as props the League built the work “Place” over a series of days. These photos show the process of building this “Place” stage. The stage was well received by League members who commented that it was a unique and innovative way to make the point – that place matters. Also during Convention the League officially unveiled its new book about placemaking, called “The Economics of Place: The Value of Building Communities Around People.” Sales of the book have been brisk on Amazon.com and the website, economicsofplace.com and a new shipment of the book has been sent to Amazon. To order a copy go to Amazon.com and type in the name of the book. Also, a press conference took place during Convention about the book and the conference featured Michigan Governor Rick Snyder.

National League for Nursing

New York, NY (PRWEB) January 31, 2012

With the globe shrinking, thanks to the Internet, sophisticated technology, and advanced communications, there are increased opportunities for international experiences in nursing education. Hence, the need for the Faculty Preparation for Global Experiences Toolkit, an initiative of INESA (International Nursing Education, Services, and Accreditation), a joint task force of the National League for Nursing and NLN Accrediting Commission (NLNAC).

Today’s nurse educators engage in international collaboration for many reasons: personal interest; the encouragement of a dean; the creation of a course or curriculum in global service learning or community/public health; promoting the educator’s home institution. And there are many roles a nurse educator can assume in an international setting: teacher, consultant, researcher, clinician. “Moreover,” said NLN president, Dr. Judith Halstead, “research indicates that health outcomes improve with the heightened cultural sensitivity of caregivers. That’s why nurse educators now have greater motivation than ever for gaining exposure to diverse, trans-cultural learning environments.”

The toolkit consists of five sections that facilitate advance planning, provide practical advice for the time abroad, and aid in implementing lessons learned once the nurse educator returns to home base. The toolkit concludes with a bibliography and web-based resources for additional information. Among the many topics covered are:

Selecting a host country

Packing, visas, immunizations

How to embrace unfamiliar customs and surroundings

Special role of faculty abroad

Faculty/student collaborations

Evaluating the experience and designing next steps

“In the interest of increasing access to safe, quality health care worldwide, the NLN considers the advancement of global nursing education a priority. There is always so much to be learned from our colleagues around the world,” noted NLN CEO Beverly Malone, PhD, RN, FAAN.

Members of the committee that developed the toolkit were: Daria U. Amato, MSN, RN, CNE; Joyce Barra, PhD, RN; G. Elaine Patterson, EdD, FNP-C, RNC; Shannon E. Perry, PhD, RN, FAAN; Jane F. Sumner, PhD, RN, PHCNS, BC; and Virginia W. Adams, PhD, RN, consultant to the NLN.

The Faculty Preparation for Global Experiences Toolkit is available on the NLN website here.

For more information about the toolkit, contact Dr. Elaine Tagliareni at 212-812-0333.

Editors and reporters: For interview opportunities, please contact NLN chief communications officer, Karen R. Klestzick at 212-812-0376.

Dedicated to excellence in nursing, the National League for Nursing is the premier organization for nurse faculty and leaders in nursing education. The NLN offers professional development, networking opportunities, testing services, nursing research grants, and public policy initiatives to its 35,000 individual and 1,200 institutional members. NLN members represent nursing education programs across the spectrum of higher education and health care organizations and agencies.
