Agricultural Export Subsidies and Domestic Support reform under the WTO System:What does it mean for Welfare in West Africa?
This article focuses on analyzing the potential welfare impacts the West African region will experience from reforming agricultural export subsidies and domestic support in developed and developing countries under the Doha Development Agenda. Results indicate that consumers of nearly all of the commodities analyzed will encounter welfare losses, while almost all producers of these commodities will experience welfare gains. However, the gains by producers are insufficient to compensate consumers¡¯ losses, and so all fourteen West African nations analyzed will end up with net welfare losses from these reforms. This finding validates other research results indicating that net food importing countries will become losers of agricultural trade reform, while net food exporters will experience more welfare gains. The implications for the region will be more poverty and heightened food insecurity as three of the countries in the region¡ªNiger, Sierra Leone and Liberia were already listed in the 2008 Global Hunger Index report as nations hardest hit by hunger.

Just after the recent trade between the Chicago Cubs and the Texas Rangers, Matt Garza made his debut in a Rangers uniform yesterday against the New York Yankees. In previous history, the Yankees were 11-1 against Garza and are fairly familiarized with his pitching because of Garza's years Tampa. However, last night was different.
Injuries after injuries have caused the Yankees a severe lack of offense and a bundle of pressure on their starting pitchers.
Andy Pettitte only surrendered 2 earned runs, over 6 innings, giving up 8 hits while the Yankees bats were put to sleep yet again. The Yankees only scored 1 run off Garza when Cano hit an RBI single to right center. The starting second and third string players filling in for injured Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Mark Texiera, and Curtis Granderson are making the opposing pitchers look like All-Stars and in most cases, they really aren't.
As the days go by and the season progresses, the Yankees are losing time to potentially gain some ground against the red hot Boston Red Sox and the streaking Tampa Bay Rays.
The Yankees are waiting until their starters are back and are hoping they can save the season. Unfortunately, they are going to keep losing game after game, run out of time, and fail to make the play-offs.
The season is over for the Yankees and they are accepting this season as a failure.
If George "The Boss" Steinbrenner was here, the New York Yankees would not be in this situation.

Hello TitanicThemes,
Great theme
How can i change the image size of the navigation images that shown on hover ? I have increased the navi items width but couldn't do it for images above the navi
Thank you dreamade,
From the js/menu.js change 168px wherever it appears.
I need the menu to be fixed at the top. I can do this with this template?
What do you mean to be fixed? what is the problem ?
To navigate the site, the menu disappears (is hidden)... At least this happens in your example.
what browser do you use ?
I can't see the problem.What version?
It's the latest version …If you could send a picture, I'd show you my screen.
Please do on the forums
Hi! How to configure the form send?
Please use our forum for support, or ask the question from the user on witch you bought this theme.
I am currently working with your template. I love it.
I wonder if there is a way to do the following.
For example, in your design the "SERVICES" button leads to the effect of scroll to the PINK section. And shows the "SERVICES" tab on the side of this while you can see the tabs "UIKit", "PieChart" and "MASONRY".
In the design I'm working on, based on your template, I need you, by clicking on a submenu of a primary button (Example: the "illustrations" inside "PORTFOLIO" button), the scroll effect to take me to the section PINK and show me what is in the "X" tab, for example, "UIKit" tab and not necessarily the first, which in this case is "SERVICES".
Is this possible? What should I do?
Thank you very much for your attention.
It can be done with some jQuery.
I made an example here. Click on the submenu Illustration link.
Add this to your html
$('#tab2').click(function() {
if ($('#tab2').hasClass("tab2")) {
Illustrations
So what i dit in the script is : I made a click function for the link that has ID name tab2. If that link is pressed it verifies that is tab2 and removes the first selected tab , it ads selected to the second tab and then it clicks the second tab.
You can select desired tab by changing eq(1) to eq(2) for example, and you will select the 3rd tab.
Hi. Thank you very much. I will implement it. Have a good day.
Hi again . I thank you for the help you gave me above. Please help me with another aspect of the template and a query that I have .
The first . Just as we did with the tabs , so that when you select a link in the menu proceed directly to a tab in particular , I would like to know how I make buttons Blue Section also directed to specific tabs . I tried the same way you indicated to me before, but I think I 'm doing something wrong .
Thank you very much for your help.
On the other hand , I commented that I'm working on another website and I would add the same style you used your carousel in the pink section of this template , content to move from one tab to another. I like the sliding effect of the content that comes out the side of your browser and quiciera learn how to do or do I need to do . If you could tell me how that is called CSS effect or do I need (I think it uses Java Script ) I'd appreciate it .
Have a good day.
Hi, 1. You can open the tabs the same way i did with the link from illustraton. The only hink that changes is that you must add the tab2 id and class name to your button from blue section. But beware you can not use 2 ID's with the same name, so for example if you are using the tab2 name in the ilustrations link and also the same name in the blue section it will not work.. you must make another click function but replace everything with tab3 for example.
2. The effect is made with caroufredsel js, it was a custom version of that script. I don't think you will find it anymore because the guys from dev7studios changed their website and don't offer this for free anymore. You will find only a plugin for wordpress.
Actualy i think you will find it here http://docs.dev7studios.com/jquery-plugins/caroufredsel
Hi. Thank you very much for the information. You really helped me a lot. I will try to do what you indicate me in 1.
I hope that the result tab. In the original design of the web I have buttons that would make tabs in a separate div where would the contents of the tab div. I hope it may continue or have to move some web design.
Thank you again. Have a good day.
Hi again. I have noticed that I have a problem with the icons in the pink section (SERVICES). I changed some of them from the list of "Typo" page and see that not shown in chrome, while in mozilla and IE everything is correct. I've tried everything up to the server again, but still the problem persists. I have noticed that the same happens in the preview of the template in envato. If you look in chrome.
Hi, try to update the fontello css and the fontello fonts. It seems that there is a difference between the working fonts and the ones that don't work.
For example the video icon has a different type code.
.icon-cog:before { content: '\2699'}
.icon-video:before { content: '🎬'}
Choose your icons from here http://fontello.com/ and download the package than replace the myFolio files with the ones you downloaded.
Note:Make sure that the address from the css points to the folder with the fonts.
ex: src: url(../fonts/fontello1.eot);
Hi. Thanks for your answer. I've done what you indicate me, but the problem has not been solved. I do not know if you serve something that sends you email the link of the website.
Hi, you can try also to rename the fonts name, maybe it has something to do with cache. If still doesn't work you can open a ticket on our forum and i will look more into the details.
But this error has no sens because if you see on these page http://demo.titanicthemes.com/myfolio/typo.html some icons are showing and some are not, so it's an issue with the glyphs code. So if you update the fonts and change the fonts name this should do the trick.
I am interested to buy this template. Is this template "Responsive"? When I checked in the demo, it was not looks like Responsive.
Hi, no this is not repsonsive.
Since this is not responsive, please remove the RESPONSIVE tag from this item.

Interracial or mixed-race couples in advertisements and commercials have always raised a few eyebrows — yes, even in 2013. The now-infamous Cheerios commercial that featured an interracial couple and their mixed-race daughter sparked discussions about people, acceptance, and of course bigotry. While the commercial opened up a heavy topic, the positive reaction to it also may have led marketing executives to take notice and jump on the bandwagon.
Did Cheerios make interracial couples popular in advertisements?
We've certainly noticed an uptick in commercials and ads featuring interracial couples since the Cheerios commercial went live. Here is a list of ads and commercials that we hope will lessen the controversy sparked by interracial couples in advertising. The more we see it, the more it will become "normal."

ACARYA ABHINAVAGUPTA MILLENIUM CELEBRATIONS the third national seminar organized by IGNCA on: Abhinavagupta: The Genius of Kashmir in collaboration with Kalakshetra Foundation, Chennai & Bharata-Ilango Foundation for Asian Culture, Chennai (BIFAC).
Abhinavagupta is a shining example among those Indian figures who though belonging to a regional tradition, profoundly impacted the whole subcontinent. While Abhinavagupta came from the particular tradition of Saivism that flourished in Kashmir even since his ancestors were brought from Central India and given agraharas to establish a line of scholarship and spiritual practice, he was honoured and respected even in his life time as virtually the greatest acharya of Saiva darsana by the whole country. The rigour with which his ideas on theatre, music, dance and tantra were studied all over the continent in the subsequent centuries, carries to this day the momentum of interest in his works and personality.
The successful beginning of the celebrations was marked by the first national seminar organised in J&K in collaboration with the Dept. of Philosophy and Culture, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University, Katra (J&K) on 4th-5th September, 2016. The second national seminar in the series was organised in collaboration with Bharat Bhavan at Bhopal from 4th to 6th November 2016. The three days main event of the international seminar along with an exhibition and performances dedicated to Acarya Abhinavagupta was organied in the premises of IGNCA from 15th to 17th December 2016.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by dcap0187, Nov 26, 2013.
4.3 is now up on SamMobile | Everything for your Samsung Mobile
Just did mines v
Mike28 I read on the t mobile forum that the new update put the phones status as "custom" is this true for you?
That's not true at least for me it shows official I guess because I was completely stock when I got it who knows
Now that you've updated has much changed? Is it worth it or would you rather have the ability to go back?
The problem is that when you root 4.3 the phone goes custom and until now THERE IS NO WAY TO GET IT BACK TO STOCK OFFICIAL because of Knox locked bootloader. Warranty voided. Other thing happening is that you can not go back to 4.2.2
Yeah like Danny says knox gets in the way, but those guys over on xda are working hard on solutions the bootloader is not locked so that's a plus I'm sure we will have a work around on this honestly I like the update touchwiz feels very solid and smooth plus the graphics stand out more
Thanks for the update mike
No problem bro glad to help
Yes I was on 4.2 stock took the ota a few weeks back, to answer your question no you can't ota if you are on a custom rom, you will need to install a knox free 4.3 rom I just did it cause I'm playing it safe I'm not rooted just because I don't want to Tripp knox and void my warranty and I will be getting the s5 but in your case just install a 4.3 rom or unless you want to do like me than Odin back to stock reset the counter and do the ota keeping in mind knox

I for one can't wait to close out this year and move on to '05. War, elections, hurricanes, earthquakes and floods, coupled with far too much Janet, Martha, Kobe, The Donald, and way too much of Dan, Peter and Tom reporting election spin and the latest poll results.
I thought the only event missing from this crazy year was a plague of locusts, then at deadline, I came across a news item from Egypt that reported a plague of billions of locusts swarmed into Cairo for the first time in 50 years. And to top it all off, the Boston Red Sox finally captured a World Series after 86 frustrating seasons. Bizarre.
Good riddance '04...shut the door on your way out.
Rather than dwell on the past, I thought this is a good time to take a peek into what we have to look forward to next year on the technological front. So I sifted through a year's worth of UB back issues and perused a bundle of hefty surveys and reports from Eduventures, EDUCAUSE, and Market Data Retrieval (MDR), in an attempt to draw a bead on what impact technology will have on campuses next year.
Kobe, The Donald...and
a plague of locusts.
Implementing wireless networks and improving security are still priorities for IHEs--no surprise there. Funding IT projects will remain an issue. IHEs will continue to wrestle with tight budgets due to the slowpoke economy and bare-bones state budgets coupled with lackluster fundraising results. However, IHEs will still spend in excess of $5.3 billion on technology-related products and services, up about 3 percent compared with 2003, according to the annual MDR report. MDR points out that "outsourcing" will continue to grow, as tech administrators seek to save money in an effort to invest in their priority list.
According to the results of the fifth annual EDUCAUSE survey, respondents ranked the following issues as top priorities for IT departments: administrative/ERP/information systems, funding IT, infrastructure management, security and identity management, strategic planning, service and support.
Eduventures' annual "Higher Education Survey on Leadership, Innovation, and Technology" produced some interesting findings. The mission of the survey was to see how non-CIO/CTO senior administrators are influencing technology on campus. The survey found that the top five overall strategic objectives of presidents, CAOs and CFOs to utilize technology are:
Attract a higher-caliber student body.
Support faculty research.
Involve more students in research.
Improve business process.
Enhance productivity of faculty and administrators.
The survey found that senior administrators "continue to look to technology for administrative functions, including improving business processes, enhancing staff productivity, and improving institutional communication." In addition, respondents said they associate technology with "enhancing teaching and learning and increasing innovation--where outcomes are most difficult to measure."
Regarding wireless, the MDR report said one of the most striking results of its survey was the "dramatic increase" in wireless networks. The data found double-digit growth in wireless implementations during the last three years, with some 70 percent of the nation's campuses either using or having access to a wireless network.
In addition, the EDUCAUSE survey reports that a few new issues cracked their Top 10 list of IT concerns: Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery and Governance, Organization and IT Leadership. These issues reflect a "growing realization of the strategic importance of IT and the close relationship of leadership and governance for this critical resource," the report said.
All in all, I'm looking forward to next year and we intend to cover the issues mentioned above. Feel free to drop me an e-mail if we missed the boat on a topic or technology so we can plug it in into our editorial calendar. By the way, I just remembered that after 17 dormant years, the Cicadas emerged from the earth this past summer. See you next year...

On August 26th, 2002, Vice President Cheney addressed the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Nashville. After the customary remarks about increasing veteran's health care spending by 8 percent ("although we are holding most discretionary spending to 2 percent increases…") Cheney launched his verbal missiles at the ostensible enemy. The gist of his speech, as it related to future military activity, concerned weapons of mass of destruction.
The case of Saddam Hussein, a sworn enemy of our country,requires a candid appraisal of the facts…He agreed to end his nuclear weapons program. He agreed to destroy his chemical and his biological weapons. He further agreed to admit U.N. inspection teams into his country, to insure that he was in fact complying with these terms. In the past decade Saddam has systematically broken each of these agreements. The Iraqi regime has in fact been very busy enhancing its capabilities in the field of chemical and biological agents, and they continue to pursue the nuclear program they began so many years ago…These are not weapons for the purpose of defending Iraq. These are offensive weapons for the purpose of inflicting death on a massive scale, developed so that Saddam can hold the threat over the head of anyone he chooses in his own region or beyond… Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction; there is no doubt that he is amassing them to use against our friends, against our allies, and against us.
No one in the Bush administration ever described a delivery system whereby WMDs would actually threaten US.
Here are the irrefutable facts about the neo-Con (Jewish lobby) decision to invade Iraq.
Iraq and the Gulf of Tonkin
The dust is not about to settle over the intelligence failure in Iraq. But it has already blurred our vision about weapons of mass destruction (WMDs).
There is still time to remind ourselves WMDs were not the principal reason for going to war against Saddam Hussein's Iraq; they were the pretext. And that's why irrefutable evidence was not the standard. Axis of evil regime change was the lodestar.
When this writer first heard from prominent neoconservatives in April 2002 that war was no longer a question of "if" but "when," the casus belli had little to do with WMDs. The Bush administration, they explained, starkly and simply, had decided to redraw the geopolitical map of the Middle East. The Bush Doctrine of pre-emption had become the vehicle for driving axis of evil practitioners out of power.
President Bush made clear Sunday the U.S. was justified in toppling Saddam irrespective of elusive WMDs.
The liberation of Iraq, in the neocon scenario, would be followed by a democratic Iraq that would quickly recognize Israel. This, in turn, would "snowball" — the analogy only works in the Cedar Mountains of Lebanon — through the region, bringing democracy from Syria to Egypt and to the sheikhdoms, emirates and monarchies of the Gulf.
All these new democracies would then embrace Israel and hitch their backward economies to the Jewish state's advanced technology. And Israel could at long last lower its guard and look forward to a generation of peace. That was the vision.
WMDs were weapons of mass deception that became the pretext for the grand design. As was a much ballyhooed, and later discredited, park bench meeting in Prague between an Iraqi intelligence agent and Mohamed Atta, the September 11, 2001, Saudi kamikaze.
The amateur strategists in the neo-con camp knew a lot more about Israel and its need for peace than they did about the law of unintended consequences, writ large in Iraq, and in the Arab world beyond.
The neocons were not alone in misreading the state of play in Saddam's Baghdad. The dictator was so detached from reality that he was writing heartthrob romance novels and sending them to Deputy Premier Tariq Aziz, the only sophisticated literary person in his entourage, for editorial comment.
As for WMDs, his scientists lied to him about the lack of progress in their laboratories and then got more funding for nonexistent programs. In a part of the world where telling the truth is considered the height of stupidity, even Republican Guard commanders were successfully disinformed about mythical WMDs capability being in other units than their own. We owe an apology to U.N. inspectors under Hans Blix — they got it right.
The principal intelligence failure was in not understanding the state of decay in the Ba'ath Party regime that most probably would have fallen of its own accord with another year of anywhere-anytime-intrusive-inspections throughout the country.
A cursory study of Iraqi history would have demonstrated that democracy in Iraq without a strong hand at the helm is a recipe for civil war. One-person-one-vote would quickly give the dominant (60 percent) Shi'ites the majority and a license to run the country in close partnership with the clerical regime that runs neighboring Iran. But this is clearly unacceptable to the Sunnis (20 percent) and the Kurds (20 percent).
The Shi'ites control the oil of the south and the Kurds can easily take possession of the oil of the north. The three Kurdish provinces moved a step closer to a unilateral declaration of independence when twin suicide bombers killed 72 last Sunday at the headquarters of the two main political parties.
Kurdish independence would leave the Sunnis high and dry in the center sans oil. Dominant for 85 years, the Sunnis are not about to roll over and accept a state of their own in the middle of the country. And the Shi'ite clergy has told U.S. authorities it is not interested in a secular, Westernized Iraq.
The U.S. plan to rescue a unitary state in Iraq with Iowa-type caucuses in 18 provinces was also doomed to failure — if only because Iraq is not Iowa. It also demonstrated one-person-one-vote elections are not the sine qua non of democracy the way they are in India, Western Europe and North America.
President Bush says, "I want the American people to know that I, too, want to know the facts" about what happened to WMDs in Iraq. Apparently, the president, too, was disinformed about WMDs being the reason he ordered U.S. troops into harm's way. Because this was no more the provocation given by the war's architects than the one put forward by the Gulf of Tonkin resolution that led to escalation of the Vietnam War — and 58,000 American servicemen killed in action.
North Vietnamese gunboats did not attack U.S. warships in the Gulf of Tonkin, anymore than Saddam threatened to attack us with his nonexistent WMDs.
So the leitmotif for Operation Iraqi Freedom was not WMDs, but the freedom of Iraq in the larger context of long-range security for Israel. Mr. Bush is right to change the rationale for war to isn't-the-world-a-better-place-without-Saddam? Of course it is. Was Iraq ever a threat to the U.S. homeland? Of course it wasn't. But hasn't the U.S. occupation of Iraq provided a force multiplier for al Qaeda? Of course it has. And the world is not a more peaceful place than it was before the occupation of Iraq.
The armchair strategists who pushed the war envelope in early 2002 dismissed any possibility of an insurgency after the liberation of Iraq. The entire population, according to this improvised conventional wisdom, couldn't wait to join forces with the U.S. Now, two or three U.S. soldiers are killed every day in Iraq; some $200 billion in unbudgeted Iraqi and Afghan costs have been added to the national debt; a resurgent Taliban, fueled by the opium/heroin trade, is spreading its tentacles again in Afghanistan — all persuasive talking points for Democratic candidates on the stump.
The Bush Doctrine of pre-emption is now badly frayed at the seams. Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom have stretched deployable U.S. forces, including the guards and reserves, to the point where another pre-emption campaign would break the system — and bring back the draft.
A steady stream of would-be jihadis, or Islamist holy warriors, is making its way into Iraq across the unmarked, mostly desert, borders of Syria, Saudi Arabia and Iran. Camel caravans trekking from the Saudi kingdom all look the same, whether they are carrying dates or detonators. It was also the very same terrain Desert Storm troopers used to turn Saddam's flank with a historic Hail Mary pass.
Saudi Arabia's 150,000-strong army could patrol more aggressively some 400 miles of a desert border that is largely unguarded. But the Saudis now worry more about internal threats to the regime than anything happening on their far-flung borders in the Arabian Peninsula.
Iraq's nonexistent WMDs were never a threat to anyone. But they have already struck a devastating blow to the credibility of the Bush White House. The Doctrine of pre-emption becomes inoperable without unimpeachable intelligence accepted by all as the coin of the realm.
Arnaud de Borchgrave is editor at large of The Washington Times and of United Press International.
On the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 attack, President Bush addressed the American nation:
"On September the 11th, we learned that America must confront threats before they reach our shores, whether those threats come from terrorist networks or terrorist states. I'm often asked why we're in Iraq when Saddam Hussein was not responsible for the 9/11 attacks. The answer is that the regime of Saddam Hussein was a clear threat [to whom?]. My administration, the Congress, and the United Nations saw the threat — and after 9/11, Saddam's regime posed a risk that the world could not afford to take. The world is safer because Saddam Hussein is no longer in power. And now the challenge is to help the Iraqi people build a democracy that fulfills the dreams of the nearly 12 million Iraqis who came out to vote in free elections last December [2005]."
58. http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/09/20060911-3.html; George Bush thought about invading Iraq when he was governor of Texas. According to Houston journalist Mickey Hesrhkowitz: "'It was on his mind. He said to me:' One of the keys to being seen as a great leader is to be seen as a commander in chief. 'And he said,' My father had all this political capital built up when he drove the Iraqis out of Kuwait, and he wasted it. 'He said,' If I have a chance to invade…if I had that much capital, I'm not going to waste it. I'm going to get everything passed that I want to get passed, and I'm going to have a successful presidency." Russ Baker, Family of Secrets: The Bush Dynasty, the Powerful Forces That Put It in the White House, and What Their Influence Means for America, (Bloomsbury Press: New York, 2009), 423. Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.
With regard to the assumption that the Baathist regime possessed weapons of mass of destruction, Gen. James "Spider" Marks, who was tasked with the mission of finding the 946 identified sites and disposing of the weapons, offered these trenchant remarks concerning the priority the Bush administration placed on his role and the presumptive reason for war.
"'No one in Rumsfeld's general chain of command seemed to know who I was. I mean, I was a senior general officer, but…I'm sure I was below their noise level'…Pointedly, he added, 'I was taught when I made general officer that I didn't have a noise level. Everything was mine. I had to give a shit about every issue, because if I didn't, something critical would slip through.' Let me get this straight, I [Jeff Stein] said to Marks: After all the talk about Saddam Hussein over the previous two years, the officials responsible for planning the actual war no longer cared about WMD? 'Well,' he said, continuing to put it like a soldier, 'they ostensibly cared, but their give-a-shit level was really low.'"

The preceding was e-mailed to the author from a serving officer. "…WMDs were not the principal reason for going to war against Saddam Hussein's Iraq; they were the pretext." Arnaud deBorchgrave, The Washington Times, February 10, 2004; David Kay, head of the Iraq Survey Group, delivered a briefing that included Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and presidential chief of staff Andrew Card about the lack of progress in locating WMDs in Iraq. Kay encountered indifference. The president, in particular, "seemed disengaged. 'I'm not sure I've spoken to anyone at that level who seemed less inquisitive,' Kay recalled."

Publishers, 2006), 310. See also Woodward, State of Denial, 184, 185.
On August 22nd 2007, President Bush addressed the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in Kansas City. His rhetoric, calculated and cynical, was a ploy to prepare the political battle space against the "Defeatocrats" in anticipation of the September report on Iraq. As testimony to the frat boy White House staff, Requaglicans conjured up the pejorative term to characterize their chief's opponents. After comparing the ambitions of imperial Japan to the ideological designs of al-Qaeda, the President trotted out his limp and simplistic analogy about imposing democracy on a defeated, prostrate empire, and Iraq. "In the aftermath of Japan's surrender, many thought it naive to help the Japanese transform themselves into a democracy. Then as now, the critics argued that some people were simply not fit for freedom. Some said Japanese culture was inherently incompatible with democracy. Joseph Grew, a former United States ambassador to Japan who served as Harry Truman's Under Secretary of State, told the President flatly that — and I quote – 'democracy in Japan would never work.' He wasn't alone in that belief. A lot of Americans believed that — and so did the Japanese — a lot of Japanese believed the same thing: democracy simply wouldn't work."
George Bush continued to refuse to acknowledge the stark difference between secular Iraq and militaristic Japan. Tokyo's bureaucracy survived while government continued functioning in rural villages and townships. Social cohesion remained intact. No ethnic or religious fault lines emerged in Japan following the formal surrender in Tokyo Bay.
Dick Cheney, David Addington, Donald Rumsfled, Scooter Libby, Paul Wolfowitz, especially Karl Rove, were/are evil men who damaged our country. In this life, there is no punishment commensurate with the crime perpertrated upon the American people for invading Iraq by these principals and others.
George Bush — synonymous with dupe and dumb ass.

By Dr. Rose Martinez
It was not your typical high school visit, but that was precisely why DDCE's Pre-College Hispanic Initiatives and the Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection joined forces. Together, the partners created a unique and memorable experience for 57 English Language Learners (ELL) from Austin's Akins High School. "The catalyst was Dr. Cinthia Salinas, Associate Professor in the College of Education, who asked if a program could be designed to provide ELL students with a brief history of Latin America and the significance of Latinos in the region," explained Dr. Rose Martinez, Executive Director for UT Outreach of South Texas and Pre-College Hispanic Initiatives.
Dr. Martinez welcomed the students to campus and Patrick Patterson, Executive Director for UT Outreach Austin, invited students to join the local pre-college awareness program. A panel of undergraduates shared personal accounts of their transition from high school to college and encouraged the students to consider applying to UT Austin. Afterward, students toured the campus including stops at DKR Memorial Stadium, the Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library and Museum and the Nettie Lee Benson Latin Collection.
Ms. Margo Gutierrez, Librarian for U.S. and Latino Studies at the Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection, arranged for the students to receive a rare opportunity to glimpse history. She displayed a few artifacts from the 1500s and provided a mini-presentation on the impact of Latinos in the Americas.
Margo Gutierrez, Nettie Lee Benson Collection Librarian, offers comparisons of a current map and a map painted in the 1500s.
"UT Austin has one of the most outstanding collections of Latin American works and artifacts and who better to describe a few of these historical gems in the collection than Ms. Gutierrez," Martinez explained.
Ms. Gutierrez provided examples of the types of books, music CDs, conference recordings, and rare collections available to the public. "On a large table, she placed a rare map and a letter from the 1500s for students to examine. The students were excited to learn that the museum has such a vast collection of materials," shared Dr. Martinez. Dr. Salinas closed the program by challenging the students to take active steps now to prepare for a successful transition to college.
Akins High School students enjoy the view outside the Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library and Museum.
