Nothing to do with Nica, but an insight into human motivation
When I read this article... for some reason it reminded me of the discourse on this site. It's about US politics Red vs Blue states.. .IIt explains why some folks in those states are Red and some are Blue, but the human motivation part is at least applicable to any nation.

Amazing as to how much more we have in common than what we think. Growing up in Nicaragua I spend my time between Managua and Chinandega. Disputes and arguments in Managua were resolved, back then, with a few obscene words and maybe a fistfight, whereas in Chinandega matters could turn deadly pretty quickly. People from the city didn't carry guns or knives on them, unless you were a member of the Police, Guardia Nacional, the infamous Seguridad (sort of a secret police) or a criminal. Out in the country the rancheros loved to wear their guns on plain sight and the lowly campesino had with him, always, his machete, and that hasn't changed much. A misplaced look or misunderstood word can get you in a world of hurt out on el campo. The campesino takes pride and places a high value to his and your words. The palabra de hombre (a man's word) phrase usually is said as he shakes hands with you as a sign of sealing a pact or deal with you. For them city folk have no honor, are cheats and liars and some even go as far as to say one that behaves in such manner is no better than a woman. Sounds terrible but it is true.
yep..good post..
there is a big difference..in the people of waslala..and the people here in mga..if waslala..wasnt so far out in nowhere land..would live there

Last Friday, August 26, we set up shop out on our patio with baskets of pretzels and peanuts, a couple kegs of Widmer beer, and a PA system blasting opera. And these signs:Why? It was our Bikes, Beer, Big Night event! Once a year we like to take advantage of our great real estate -- our patio backs onto the Eastbank Esplanade -- and hand out free beers and snacks to the cyclists, runners, and pedestrians who pass by our doors. We pump up the opera, pull out the patio tables, and enjoy the sunshine!Generally the biggest hurdle is getting people to understand that FREE BEER means … free beer. Totally, no-strings-attached, free. We give out beers because we love you.It was another beautiful day, and we had a great crowd.

With 1947's Desperate, a disturbing, noirish twist on traditional moral values, responsibility, and guilt, director Anthony Mann entered the ranks of class-A directors, though he'd still have to spend a few more years in "B" pictures. In his first important role, Steve Brodie plays newlywed trucker Steve Randall, who finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time during a fur robbery. Kidnapping Steve, the criminals, led by Walt Radak (Raymond Burr), threaten to mutilate Mrs. Randall (Audrey Long) unless Steve confesses to a murder committed by Radak's brother during the theft. Pretending to play along with the villains, Steve manages to escape with his wife in tow. The rest of the film is a prolonged chase, with the Randalls pursued by both the crooks and the cops. A surprise ending caps this film noir mini-classic, which is best appreciated when not seen in its computer-colorized version.

What We Do
UNDP partners with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis, and drive and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. On the ground in more than 170 countries and territories, we offer global perspective and local insight to help empower lives and build resilient nations.
Our Goals
Thailand's emergence as a middle-income country (MIC) altered the country's development context and the nature of Thailand's development engagement with partners. The past country programme initiated a transition from the traditional donor-recipient relationship between Thailand and UNDP to a new relationship of mutually beneficial partnerships. Along with this transition, UNDP in Thailand has shifted its emphasis to policy support, technical assistance, and knowledge management. In this context there is an importance of linking policy with practice, which has been highlighted by UNDP's experience across all programme areas.

LOUISVILLE, Ky (WHAS11) -- The Louisville Tea Party President is stressing the organization has not endorsed a candidate in Kentucky's 2014 U.S. Senate race and that Sarah Durand resigned from her post as Louisville Tea Party president to accept a position with the Matt Bevin campaign.
In a news release Thursday night, Louisville Tea Party President Wendy Caswell takes issue with a story posted Wednesday morning on WHAS11.com which reported that Scott Reed had resigned his Louisville Tea Party post in a show of support for U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell.
In WHAS11.com's original story, Durand was referred to as both the Louisville Tea Party President and as a spokeswoman for Bevin because WHAS11 had not been informed of Durand's resignation.
As of Thursday night after the news release, the Louisville Tea Party website still listed Durand as President with a photo of her.
However, after Durand confirmed the timeline Wednesday, WHAS11.com immediately edited the story to reflect she was the former president.
Caswell disputed that Reed was a "founding" board member of the Louisville Tea Party, as Reed had described himself in an interview with WHAS11.
"Both of those statements are false, and it is important to set the record straight," Caswell said. "Sarah Durand resigned the first of July to pursue other goals. We now know that was to work for Bevin. She did not tell us at the time. Also, Scott Reed was not a founding member and did not join the movement until over a year after it started."
Though WHAS11 never reported that the Louisville Tea Party had endorsed a candidate, Caswell claims otherwise, calling the WHAS11 story "inaccurate."
"I cannot stress this enough - the Louisville Tea Party has NOT endorsed anybody in the senate race at this time. While we are critical of Sen. McConnell on several issues, we are currently weighing all options on both sides of the field. As always, we will continue to extend a warm invitation to all candidates, Republican, Democrat or otherwise affiliated, to come to one of our socials and present their case before our members. And as always, we will allow our members to decide who we support."
Caswell said the McConnell campaign had distributed the WHAS11.com report and she wanted to correct the record "because we know the McConnell campaign strives to maintain the highest levels of integrity."

Analysis: Sequestration postponed? What does that mean?
Wednesday - 1/2/2013, 12:20pm EST
Brian Friel, a federal business intelligence analyst with Bloomberg Government, told The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp today that the new legislation both delayed sequestration and reduced its potential effect.
"We were looking at $109 billion in potential sequestration prior to the passage of this bill," he said. "Now we're looking at $85 billion as the ceiling, because Congress took $24 billion of the original $109 billion and shifted it. So, $12 billion of that cut has now been taken care of through a change in the tax code. The other $12 billion is being dealt with by changes in the budget caps for 2013 and 2014, so kind of pushing out the potential effect of the cuts so that they can be dealt with later. It's basically a 22 percent reduction in the potential threat of sequestration, which will potentially take place in March unless Congress and the White House can agree on further reducing the potential impact of it."
Currently, the government is operating under a 2012 countinuing resolution, which runs out in March.
"The way they structured those cuts is they reduced what they called the discretionary spending caps for non-security and security spending both for 2013 and 2014," Friel said. "So, $8 billion of that $12 billion has been shifted out into 2014 in the form of lower overall caps for that year." That leaves only $4 billion in potential cuts for 2013, split 50-50 between defense and non-defense spending.
New Congress must resolve sequestration
Friel said those cuts would occur in an after-session sequestration, which the new law says will occur on March 27, the day the CR expires.
Brian Friel
If Congress had done nothing and sequestration kicked in, the budget would have gone up in 2013 and 2014. The new cuts, however, flat-line the overall budget by eliminating an expected increase over the next two years.
It will be up to the new Congress, which will be sworn in on Thursday, to figure out how to deal with the remaining 85 percent of sequestration.
"Congress will have to deal with this by March 1 or [the Office of Management and Budget] will have to issue the sequestration order that everyone was expecting to happen today," Friel said. "That basically gives us two months."
What the government was facing before for defense was an overall 9.4 percent cut in fiscal 2013 and for non-defense was an 8.2 percent cut. "We did sort of an initial calculation," Friel said. With $24 billion taken off of sequestration, now we're looking at, if sequestration starts to take place in March, 7.3 percent cut for fiscal 2013 on the defense side and probably in the 6.5 percent range for non-defense."
Debt ceiling faces March deadline too
Complicating matter is the debt ceiling issue will have to be resolved early in March as well. "All this sequestration fight might be wrapped into the debt ceiling increase," Friel said.
Even though the government reached the debt ceiling limit on Christmas Eve, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told Congress he could avoid breaching of the debt ceiling by moving money around through accounting procedures.
"It's things like that that really bothers federal employees every year," Friel said. "They take money allocated in the G Fund, which is sort of the super-safe fund for the Thrift Savings Plan for federal employees, and kind of jostle that around. They always restore that money once an agreement is reached to raise the debt limit, but it certainly causes angst for federal employees while that's happening."
With a final resolution about the sequester delayed until March, many contractors may be left wondering how to weather the uncertainty of the next two months.
Friel likened the current situation to what happened in 2011 when Congress failed to pass a full-year appropriation until mid-April.
"Contractors can think back to two years ago and how they dealt with the uncertainty then and apply the lessons they learned then to now," he said.
Sequester delayed for two months; pay freeze extension still possible

Klinsmann names roster for USA World Cup qualifiers
United States men's national team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann dropped his long-awaited roster for the two final World Cup qualifiers at home against Jamaica on Oct. 11 and away to Panama Oct. 15 on Sunday afternoon. The games are more or less meaningless, since the USA secured qualification with a 2-0 home win against Mexico on Sept. 10.
Which is just as well, because this roster is more notable for the names not on it, or those that barely made it on there, than those players who are fit and playing regularly.
Clint Dempsey continues to battle a persistent hamstring injury that has kept him from getting into a regular rhythm since joining the Seattle Sounders this summer. Michael Bradley still hasn't recovered from the ankle sprain he suffered in pregame warmups before the loss to Costa Rica on Sept. 6.
Image courtesy of Getty
That means the U.S.'s two most important players, the men dictating the pace and rhythm, are absent.
Overall, the goalkeepers constitute the only line that's complete, with Brad Guzan, Tim Howard and Nick Rimando all fit and thriving for their clubs. In defense, however, Steve Cherundolo still isn't over his surgery, Timmy Chandler either remains in the doghouse for refusing call-ups or is still refusing them, and sometime-back Fabian Johnson isn't 100 percent either and wasn't called in.
In midfield, the aforementioned Johnson isn't available on the left. Fellow winger Alejandro Bedoya did make the squad, but missed his last FC Nantes game because of sickness, so his status is questionable. Also unclear is the situation surrounding Jermaine Jones, who may or may not need meniscus surgery and was suspended for his club Schalke recently.
Up front, the group is in pretty decent shape. But Landon Donovan has also had fitness concerns of late. Herculez Gomez, recently back from a niggling knee injury, is back playing for Xolos in Mexico but didn't get called in – Terrence Boyd got the call instead.
It is, in short, a roster littered with question marks.

1. The Pilgrims came to America to avoid the religious rules imposed by England.
The Pilgrims were Calvinist Protestants. They followed the teachings of John Calvin
on how to worship God.
2. The pilgrims had asked the King to allow them to form their own church.
The King denied the pilgrim's request.
3. The Pilgrims decided to move to Holland where religious freedom was practiced,
and where they would be allowed to worship God as they saw fit.
4. They lived in Holland until 1620, when they became dissatisfied with their situation
and the effects that living in Holland was having on their children. In 1620, the Pilgrims
moved back to England and prepared to leave for the New World.
5. The Pilgrims sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to reach North America. They sailed on a
ship named the Mayflower.
On December 11,
1620, the first Pilgrims (or Puritans, as they were first known) landed
at Plymouth Rock.
7. The Wampanoag Indians were the people who taught the Pilgrims how to get the land ready
for planting.
8. By the fall of 1621, only half of the pilgrims, who had sailed on the Mayflower, survived.
The survivors, thankful to be alive, decided to prepare a thanksgiving feast.
9. The Pilgrim leader, Governor William Bradford, had organized the first Thanksgiving feast
in the year 1621, in Masschusettes. The first Thanksgiving feast was held in the presence of
around ninety Wampanoag Indians and the Wampanoag chief, Massasoit, was also invited.
10. The first Thanksgiving celebration lasted three days. The drink that the Puritans brought with
them on the Mayflower was beer.

Hello, Tom.
I am big fan of all your work and wish we could see more of you as the Doctor.
I know that one of the few Doctor Who serials that has never been formally released is Shada, which unfortunately got stopped due to BBC industrial action.
There is talk in fandom that the BBC are trying to release Shada in some form or other in 2011. Also, Doctor Who superfan, Ian Levine is planning to release his own version in August, next year. I believe the latter will feature a professional impersonator (Paul Jones) as the Doctor in scripted parts which were never filmed at the time (due to the strikes).
Will you be involved in either of these projects, as it would be great to see Shada completed?

With more than 1,700 exhibitors and 100,000 attendees from 67 countries all on 2.6 million square feet of showgrounds, World Ag Expo is the largest ag expo of its kind worldwide. In 2008, the show will expand again with the addition of the Dairy Technology Center (DTC) and surrounding outdoor dairy exhibit space.
The Dairy Technology Center, sponsored by Bella Health Systems, will increase the already 500 dairy exhibits to more than 600. Showcased in the DTC will be the Top Five New Dairy Products at World Ag Expo, selected by a panel of industry experts.
Easier To Register
The 2008 Expo will also introduce attendee electronic registration. Due to exhibitor requests, Expo leadership will work with a leading electronic registration company to register show attendees before they enter the grounds. Attendees will provide general demographic and production information and receive a printed badge for Expo entrance. The registration system will also enter attendees into a drawing for a 2008 Dodge truck and will act as admission to the show.
To get a jumpstart on business and browsing, the Expo will open at 8 a.m. in 2008. Attendees are welcome to begin roaming the grounds at 8 every day of the show. With acres of new innovations and technology, visitors will need the extra hour to see everything exhibitors have to offer.
From the showcased products in the New Product Center to informative seminars, Ride and Drive demonstration areas, offsite farm tours, special Expo events and new product roll-outs, the World Ag Expo is a three-day event packed with all of the tools and information that farmers need to improve their operations.
Although the show is undergoing tremendous change and making exciting additions to meet industry needs, the World Ag Expo has a special history in the Central Valley full of tradition and growth.
The show began in 1968 and was held at the Tulare County Fairgrounds in Tulare. The first show attracted 157 exhibitors and 28,000 attendees.
By the second year, the show doubled in both attendees and exhibitors, and has continued to grow.
Support From Volunteers
Originally the 'Tulare Field and Row Crop Equipment Show,' it quickly outgrew its name and location.
In 1982 the Expo opened on a new facility off Highway 99, the Inter-national Agri Center, owned and operated by the 1,200 volunteers of the organization. Finally in 2001, the annual show adopted its current name, World Ag Expo.
The key element to the success of World Ag Expo is the "Orange Jacket Volunteers." These unpaid volunteers are the heart and soul of the largest ag exposition in the world. The show idea was created by volunteers, started by volunteers and has been operated by volunteers since the beginning.
The 2008 World Ag Expo
is scheduled for Feb. 12-14 at the International AgriCenter in Tulare,
Calif. For more information, please visit www.worldagexpo.com

- Sydenham chorea (emotional instability, muscle weakness and quick, uncoordinated jerky movements that mainly affect the face, feet, and hands)
Signs and tests
Your doctor or nurse will examine you. This will include carefully checking your heart sounds, skin, and joints.
Tests may include:
- Blood test for recurrent strep infection (such as an ASO test)
- Complete blood count
- Electrocardiogram
- Sedimentation rate (ESR)
Several major and minor criteria have been developed to help standardize rheumatic fever diagnosis. Meeting these criteria, as well as having evidence of a recent streptococcal infection, can help confirm that you have rheumatic fever.
The major criteria for diagnosis include:
- Arthritis in several large joints (polyarthritis)
- Heart inflammation (carditis)
- Nodules under the skin (subcutaneous skin nodules)
- Rapid, jerky movements (chorea, Sydenham chorea)
- Skin rash (erythema marginatum)
The minor criteria include:
- Fever
- High ESR
- Joint pain
- Abnormal EKG
You'll likely be diagnosed with rheumatic fever if you meet two major criteria, or one major and two minor criteria, and have signs that you've had a previous strep infection.
If you are diagnosed with acute rheumatic fever you will be treated with antibiotics.
Anti-inflammatory medications such as aspirin or corticosteroids reduce inflammation to help manage acute rheumatic fever.
You may have to take low doses of antibiotics (such as penicillin, sulfadiazine, or erythromycin) over the long term to prevent strep throat from returning.
Support Groups
Expectations (prognosis)
If rheumatic fever returns, your doctor may recommend you take low-dose antibiotics continually, especially during the first 3 -5 years after the first episode of the disease. Heart complications may be severe, particularly if the heart valves are involved.
- Arrhythmias
- Damage to heart valves (in particular, mitral stenosis and aortic stenosis)
- Endocarditis
- Heart failure
- Pericarditis
- Sydenham chorea
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of rheumatic fever. Because several other conditions have similar symptoms, you will need careful medical evaluation.
If you have symptoms of strep throat, tell your health care provider. You will need to be evaluated and treated if you do have strep throat, to decrease your risk of developing rheumatic fever.
The most important way to prevent rheumatic fever is by getting quick treatment for strep throat and scarlet fever.

Caterpillar: Buy Now or Wait Until Chinese Macro Fears Subside?
Jason is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Caterpillar's (NYSE: CAT) stock has been a roller coaster ride. It rallied from the low $20's in the depth of the financial crisis to a high of $116. With China slowing, the stock has since retraced back to the $80's and is down 7% year to date. Should investors buy now or wait until the Chinese economy recovers?
Caterpillar manufactures and sells construction and mining equipment. It is most famous for the yellow bulldozers and construction equipment that line many construction sites, but with the acquisition of Bucyrus International two years ago, it is also deeply in the mining business.
Valuation-wise, Caterpillar is a fairly priced stock with shares trading at 11 times earnings and 10 times next year earnings. The company pays its investors an above average dividend of almost 3% and has a payout ratio of only 20%. Caterpillar has steadily raised the dividend over time, and even during the financial crisis of 2008.
Analysts are neutral on the stock. UBS has a price target of $84 while RBC Capital Markets has a higher target of $92. Analysts, on average, expect a five-year annual earnings growth rate of 14%.
Macro fears
The big reason for Caterpillar's recent weakness is China. Because Caterpillar makes excavation and mining equipment, it is highly levered to the building boom in China, which consumes over 45% of the world's steel. Unfortunately, the building boom is slowly losing steam. There are many ghost cities in China, such as Ordos, with many houses but no residents.
Source: GeoEye
The building boom spurred demand for iron ore, coal, and excavation equipment. Caterpillar and its rivals, Joy Global (NYSE: JOY) and Deere & Company (NYSE: DE), all benefited from it. But now that housing construction is slowing down, there is not as much demand. According to Caterpillar, industry-wide sales of construction equipment in China are about half the level of two years ago. As a consequence, despite the hot U.S. housing market, Caterpillar's gross margin is down from 30% to 26% and profit margins are down from 7% to 6.4%.
Hedge fund manger Jim Chanos, who is short the company, estimates that roughly half of Caterpillar's profits come from capital expenditures of mining companies. As there is less demand for iron ore, due to the building bust in China, Caterpillar's profits will take a hit.
Accounting problems
Caterpillar has further stumbled in China with accounting problems. In June 2012, Cat bought Era Mining Machinery for $734 million. Unfortunately, it discovered accounting problems and had to take a non-cash charge of about $580 million. While that may not be much for a market capitalization of over $50 billion, the write-down is a symbol of the missteps that Caterpillar has made in China.
Joy Global is a manufacturer of mining equipment for the extraction of coal and other minerals and ores. Joy Global is more levered to China than Caterpillar because it has a smaller market cap of $5.2 billion versus Caterpillar's $53 billion, and it paid $1.4 billion for International Mining Machinery Holdings in 2011 versus Caterpillar's $734 million acquisition of Era.
With China slowing, the same macro fears that overhang Caterpillar's stock are occurring to Joy Global, thus causing a more than 20% drop in the share price year to date. Even more concerning is that Joy has goodwill and intangible assets that account for over 60% of total equity. One positive for Joy Global is that it is priced at a better valuation than Caterpillar, with shares trading at 8 times next year's earnings.
Deere & Company manufactures and distributes agriculture equipment, construction, and forestry equipment. Between the three companies, Deere & Company is the least dependent on China because its main source of income is agricultural equipment, which should see higher demand as the world population grows. Last year, 81% of Deere's total revenue came from the agricultural segment.
The agricultural segment is growing at 13%, primarily due to higher shipper volumes and improved price realization. Deere is priced around Caterpillar's valuation, with shares trading around 10 times this year's earnings and 9.61 next year's. Analysts are bullish on this company with a price target of $95, or 15% above current levels.
It is very hard to call bottoms. Right now, long-term investors in Caterpillar would do well by sitting on the 3% dividend yield. Short-term investors should not get into the Caterpillar because if Chanos is right, there will be more room to fall. Of the three companies, Deere is the strongest because it has a strong focus on agriculture, which should be a growing field in the future. Joy Global and Caterpillar stock are speculative investments until China turns around.

Best toothpaste!
5 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb
I love the fact is doesn't contain any chemicals, nor SLS. I use it now that I am pregnant and I avoid all nasty chemicals. It is so hard to find a whitening toothpaste that actually works and is not harmful. The amount of product is huge as well, making it a very good deal for the price.

Great, But Not For Those With Sensitive Teeth

Now Foods, Solutions, Xyli•White Toothpaste Gel is mostly great. It really does clean and whiten teeth without fluoride and without drying the mouth. It removes plaque, too, and keeps it from re-forming, which I believe is due to the Xylitol in this product's formula. Soon after I started using this product, I did notice that my teeth were becoming much more sensitive, and after using this product for several months hot and cold beverages were downright painful. Now, I alternate Now Foods, Solutions, Xyli•White Toothpaste Gel with Auromere, Herbal Toothpaste, Fresh Mint, and that's been a great combination for me.

We have the sir, can I have more - memory/space all the time, i too tried making it funny, it didnt work.
I also get, Sir is Mrs X/Mr Y in here, I look under my desk, then reply no, sorry!. Same if they say, have I seen.... or Do you know where Mr/Mrs is... no sorry I dont have a tracking device fitted to them.
Its when you are asked for more user storage/printer credits when in the coridoor.
Or Sir do you have a stapler/sellotape etc when in an ICT Morning/Lunch Homework club, so I empty my pockets then say no, sorry.
I could go on, the usual audio lead unplugged, socket switched off etc happens a lot.
Now that we're using proximity cards for catering/library/access control it's led to some interesting requests.... replacement bus passes, replacement library cards (as in public library in town, nothing to do with school), asking if they can have one turned in to a pay as you go credit card and the one-off (so far) brilliant one... can you print me a new driving license, I've lost the card bit!!!

this week..
Need to get some of that fancy new dry ink.Colour printer in exams office having issues
New ink (compatible) is smelly making page's smelly
New ink is also wet
Wondering about have the printer serviced.
Also the usual pupils coming in saying:
"computer not working"
"in the classroom"
"which classroom?"
"D Block"
"that's a very big classroom can you narrow it down?"
"i dunno"
"who's your teacher?"
"i dunno"
"whats not working?"
"i dunno"
End up trailing half way across school having to drop everything to follow the id... pupil. Only to find they need a replacement mouse or new toner.
I'm seriously considering lo-jacking our NM so when the head phones up and wants to know where he is i can give his lat long and tell her to find him herself!
I overheard a teacher the other day saying this to the class...
"If u put an email address in capitals it will get sent back to you because the internet thinks your shouting at it!!....."
Oh Dear!!! :/

Or if it's to do with their computer and they're fairly new, we might do an initial diagnostic using RM Tutor. We have room plans with computer IDs on to help identify which computer they might be on.
Teacher: I've plugged <ancient> iPod into sound system and turned both up full but its stll too quiet....can you make it louder please...
