The international community frequently demands that wealthy nations increase their development assistance to poor nations. The United States will provide additional assistance, but President Bush is also prudently pursuing a system that measures the effectiveness of aid.
In the days leading up to the International Conference on Financing for Development, held in Monterrey, Mexico, from March 18 to 22, 2002, both World Bank President James Wolfenson and United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan called for the United States to double funding for development assistance. Oxfam, an international aid organization, claims that 56 million children will die needlessly over the next 15 years if wealthy nations do not provide an extra $100 billion each year in aid.
In the wake of these calls for increased international aid, President George W. Bush proposed increasing America's development assistance budget by $10 billion over a three-year period. Current plans are to increase development assistance by $1.7 billion in 2004, $3.3 billion in 2005, and $5 billion in 2006.
This is no capitulation to international pressure, however. President Bush's proposal seeks to use that additional assistance to improve the effectiveness of aid through a "Millennium Challenge Account" that would disburse aid only to countries that show improvement in rooting out corruption, raising health and education standards, or promoting economic freedom. Countries that do not make such improvements would not be eligible.
Thus, the Millennium Challenge Account would encourage economic development by creating a positive competition among potential recipients, with this competition rewarding those countries that adopt policies that help their citizens. Now President Bush must ensure that there are procedures in place both to verify that the aid actually gets to the recipient and to measure progress.
Although President Bush has identified broad criteria for distributing foreign aid, he has not specified how progress in the various categories would be measured. To further ensure the effectiveness of U.S. aid, President Bush should:
- Allocate foreign
aid based on improvements in economic freedom. Research
has shown that development aid can contribute to economic growth
only when a country embraces economic freedom.
- Stress the
benefits of economic freedom. Economic freedom has a
salutary effect on the major priorities of both critics and
proponents of development assistance. Economic freedom provides an
avenue to increased per-capita income and, thereby, economic
development in poor nations. With higher incomes, developing
countries are able to make greater investments to improve labor,
environmental, health, and education standards. In addition to the
benefits that it provides by raising per-capita income, economic
freedom has proven beneficial as a prerequisite in countering
terrorism and rooting out corruption.
- Administer the
foreign aid in the Millennium Challenge Account through grants
rather than loans. One of the conclusions of the
congressionally appointed International Financial Institution
Advisory Commission (Meltzer Commission) on reforming the World
Bank and the International Monetary Fund was that development aid
should be administered through performance-based grants rather than
loans. The President should use the Millennium Challenge Account as
a prototype for this proposal to demonstrate that performance-based
grants are not only possible, but also more effective than
conventional aid in raising standards of living and stimulating
economic development.
With this new approach to administering development assistance, President Bush would increase the level of accountability for how U.S. aid is administered to underdeveloped countries. Development assistance administered through performance-based grants would ensure that development funds are being devoted to projects that are producing results.
Moreover, once the Administration chose a measure of economic freedom as a standard for the granting of development assistance, it would be easy to verify that aid is being administered to proper recipients: Countries that are making improvements in economic freedom should receive the most development assistance, while countries failing to make improvements should not receive development assistance. Because experience has demonstrated that aid is effective only in countries with sound economic policies, the success of this new approach should be determined by the Administration's ability to disburse development assistance to those countries that are making demonstrated improvements in economic freedom.
By adopting these measures, President Bush would radically transform the way in which the United States administers bilateral aid, set the stage for significant changes in America's policy toward disbursal of multilateral aid, and help to ensure that U.S. taxpayers' dollars are being allocated wisely and effectively.

I'm not much help, I'm afraid... I'm totaly opposite, pale and dry skin. But I love the Benefit powders. I'm sure the Hoola would look like I had dirt smudged on my face, just too much color for me. I've used Dandelion, same product but way lighter. The texture is nice and you can't feel it on your face at all.
Have you tried any of the lotions that bronze gradually? I think they have a pretty good rep, not like the old self tanners. But not sure if they would be a problem for oily skin.
Maybe someone else will know more.

Meeting in Heworth Without about York's Local Plan
11:16am 18th June 2013
Plans for a new 1,800 house development on Green Belt land on the outskirts of York have come under attack at a public event.
Around 150 residents attended a 'drop-in' session at Heworth Without Community Centre to find our more about proposals in City of York Council's draft Local Plan to develop land to the east of Metcalfe Lane for housing and build wind turbines nearby. Local people and Heworth Without Councillor Nigel Ayre have claimed that the scale of development would put pressure on local infrastructure and destroy the character of the area.
At the event, Cllr Ayre spoke to local residents hearing about their concerns over the plans and listened to criticism of the Council's handling of the eight-week public consultation. Cllr Ayre and Heworth Without Parish Councillors also carried out a short survey as residents left the venue – this revealed that out of 77 people asked 71 felt the development would destroy the character of the local area and 76 said that local transport infrastructure would not be able to cope. Out of those surveyed there was also overwhelming opposition to the scale of Labour's housing growth with 74 out of 77 favouring 16,000 or fewer houses not Labour's plan for 22,000 houses over the next 15 years.
Cllr Nigel Ayre, Liberal Democrat Councillor for Heworth Without, commented:
"The local response to these proposals has been overwhelmingly against. Residents are deeply concerned about the impact 1,800 houses could have on existing traffic issues and the impact the housing and possible wind turbines would have on the character of the local area. Residents tell me this is Green Belt land and they want it protected. Local people overwhelmingly recognise the need for housing growth, but it is the scale of growth, use of the Green Belt and doubts over Labour's ability to deliver the infrastructure and jobs which are sparking such a wave of opposition.
"Residents are also angry about the Council's approach to the consultation. Documents have been hidden and even now we are still awaiting key reports. The Council is only carrying out a limited series of public meetings and residents question whether 8 weeks is long enough to properly study the plans, gather local views, and develop detailed arguments against. There is also scepticism, given the Labour Council's track-record of ignoring local residents over bus, bin and library cuts, whether people will be listened to this time."
Cllr James Alexander, Labour Leader of City of York Council, said: "Every household will receive information about York's Local Plan and have the opportunity to have their say over how we address York's homes crisis.
"York does not currently have a defined Green belt and the draft Local Plan has the opportunity to define it for the first time whilst securing homes and jobs for the future.
"We encourage all of York's residents and businesses to take part in this consultation before Wednesday 31 July. The significance of what York's Local Plan will deliver can not be underestimated and without a plan, recent changes in Government legislation would see uncontrolled development across the draft Green Belt."
Dave Merrett, Cabinet Member for Planning, Transport and Sustainability said: "The draft Local Plan includes 19 supporting documents which give a really extensive insight into how the plan has been put together and how we will deal with all aspects of biodiversity, heritage, retailing, sports and active leisure and much more."
Last week, it was revealed that over 2,000 people have signed a Liberal Democrat petition against Labour's plans to build 22,000 houses on York's Green Belt over the next 15 years. The petition was launched by Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Spokesperson for York Outer, Nick Emmerson and can be found here: www.yorklibdems.org.uk/saveourgreenbelt

I just read that, I think it was Greenspan, the economy was going to dip and flatten out in 2010. It's hard to say right now what will happen. The middle east could blow up and cause us all kinds of problems or the dollar could keep losing its value and keep the economy from reviving.
The way I overcome it is by not concerning myself with it. If you want to get ahead in life the economy is irrelevant, you will find a way.

How Trump's wall compares to other famous walls
Source: BBC
President Trump is vowing to go ahead with his plans to build a 3,000km wall along the border with Mexico.
It's going to stand between nine and 16 metres high and will be made of concrete.
The Republicans and their supporters say it will prevent Mexicans from illegally entering America.
There is already a fence running along the border with strict controls around people communicating between the two sides.
At one section, known as Friendship Park, where US border guards in San Diego allow people to talk through the fence to their friends and family.
There have been many walls in history built to separate nations. But how do they compare with the plans for the US-Mexico border?
Only 27 years ago the Berlin Wall was demolished
For sheer scale, let's start with the Berlin Wall.
For this we need to journey back to the 1950s when Germany was divided into east and west.
Berlin was in East Germany, the Soviet zone, but as the country's capital it was decided that it would also be divided into four areas, one controlled by each of the four countries
Residents in the American, French and British controlled west woke up one morning on August 1961 to a physical divide between them and the zone controlled by the Soviets.
At first it was just a fence but it was soon filled with concrete measuring 3.6m high in places.
It was 100km in length with an additional 66km of fencing.
Trump's wall will be long, but not the longest in history
The border between America and Mexico is around 3,000km.
So even if Trump has to detour around things like mountains he's going to have a challenge making it longer than the Great Wall of China.
The exact length of the Great Wall is hard to say but it is generally accepted that it once stood at over 20,000km long. It's visible in low Earth orbit but not from Space.
It is more than seven metres high in most places.
But Trump's wall would trump all others on height
The president can't decide how tall his wall is going to be but he has mentioned a 16-metre barrier. That would be more than three double-decker buses.
Hadrian's Wall, which Emperor Hadrian ordered in 122 AD, was just one double-decker bus in height.
It was 117km long and ran between Wallsend and Bowness, separating England from Scotland.

Im just back from a four-day swing through MA (clams and lobsters) and ME (lobsters and clams), in yet another vain attempt to see whether I could actually tire of the aforementioned seafoods and those tiny Maine blueberries.
I ate at Farnhams, The Clam Box, Woodmans, Essex Seafood, and The Lobster Pool in MA; and Cindys Fish and Fries, Five Islands Lobster Co., The Sea Basket, Marriners, Muscongus Bay Lobster Co., and Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster in ME. I even began to make tasting notes for an article that started to take shape mentally, but will probably never be written.
Considering that fourteen hours' worth of those four days was spent driving from NYC to Maine and back, thats a whole lot of eating in a very short time. No more seafood or blueberries for a week!
A few observations:
- This was not the best year for Essex fried clams. Past years in Essex, and last year at Arnold's on Cape Cod, were better.
- The best lobster and steamers I've had, consistently, have been at a place that I haven't seen in food or touring books.
- Marriner's blueberry pancakes may or may not be "the best in the world," but they're up there, and the service was delightful. While the premises are certainly showing their age, Marriner's is not "dirty"; whoever posted to that effect may have some other agenda.

A Message from the Chief
Welcome to the Stanford Nuclear Medicine & Molecular Imaging Clinic. We are committed to improving health through excellence in image-based patient care, research and education. Thank you for visiting our web site. We hope you find the information helpful and interesting.
Illuminating and Treating Diseases
Nuclear medicine involves the use of small amounts of radioactive materials (or tracers) to help diagnose and treat a variety of diseases. Nuclear medicine determines the cause of the medical problem based on the function of the organ, tissue or bone. This is how nuclear medicine differs from an x-ray, ultrasound or any other diagnostic test that determines the presence of disease based on structural appearance. More
2017 Alavi-Mandell Award
July 2017
Dr Ryogo Minamimoto, working with his mentor and senior author Dr Andrei Iagaru, received the 2017 Alavi-Mandell Award for the JNM article "Pilot Comparison of 68Ga-RM2 PET and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET in Patients with Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer". The two agents target different biological processes and have different distribution patterns in the body. Some patients might benefit from having both scans performed, however. In addition, the agents could be labeled with lutetium-177 for therapeutic uses. The article was published in the April 2016 issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

Nick Clegg's time as the country's darling was always likely to be fleeting. But poor
Vince Cable was consistently feted as the man who got it right on the economy. But he has looked miserable from the moment he entered government. Why is this?
I can't be the only politico to have heard Vince say before 2010 that he would never enter government with the Tories. Oddly enough, he was far more polite about them than he has been on the radio this morning. The whole point about two-party politics is that it is tribal and ruthless,
although anyone who has crossed sword with the Lib Dems at a local level will know that they have their own version of brutality reserved for their enemies.
The point is that there are certain senior Liberal Democrats who should never have accepted government posts and Vince Cable is one of them.
The Lib Dems have no one but themselves to blame for this week's results. They should take the opportunity this weekend to have a long look at themselves.

Jackie Brighton has a problem. First she slept with a hot guy she met in a bar after too many martinis, then she woke up in a dumpster, where a mugger had left her for dead. Except her one-night stand turned out to be an angel named Noah, and her mugger turned out to be a vampire named Zane - and the combination of angel-sex and vampire-bite has turned her into a succubus. The upside of being a succubus? She's suddenly a bombshell with hoards of men panting after her, which is a very good thing - because the downside is The Itch: she needs sex constantly. Sure, it might sound like fun. But Jackie's picky about who she sleeps with, yet if she doesn't have sex regularly and frequently, she'll literally die! When Jackie's pulled into Noah's and Zane's pursuit of an ancient halo that will give the Heavenly Host or the Infernal Host ultimate power in the world, she now has two hot guys to scratch her Itch - unless she gets destroyed in the battle for the halo, first.

Vijender Singh: I will do my talking in the ring
New Delhi: Samet Hyuseinov has promised to send Vijender Singh back to India 'beaten and broken' come December 19 but the Indian boxing star merely breaks into laughter at the very mention of the threat, saying he would respond in kind inside the ring.
Vijender Singh celebrates after defeating Great Britain's Sonny Whiting in Manchester on October 10. Pic/Getty Images
Speaking to PTI from Manchester, Vijender (75kg) said he has increased his sparring sessions ahead of his third bout and is focussing on endurance and power.
"How do you respond to such threats? I can only laugh, let him say what he feel like. He has all the freedom to say what he wants. But I talk only in the ring and in a language he will understand quite well," the former Olympic World Championships bronze-medallist said.
Bulgaria's Hyuseinov is the most experienced rival of Vijender's nascent pro career so far, having fought 14 bouts and winning seven. But the 30-year-old Indian is least perturbed.
Samet Hyuseinov
"If he is experienced, then I am no less. I am an Olympic medallist. Obviously he is more experienced in the pro circuit but I am experienced enough not to be affected by it," he said. "My USP is that I hardly ever get worried. I know it's my job and I will be facing up to a variety of people, so I don't get too affected," he added.

´Within the framework of the ambitious expansion project of the Melbourne Airport, the airplane parking area enlarged by up to 30,000 sq. m (7.4 acres), but the first LED lighting project for an Australian airport was also implemented. The six high-mast systems were equipped with LEDs. In so doing, it is now possible to lastingly save energy and reduce maintenance costs. LEDs will now also be used for all additional lighting needs in the airport area. With its top-quality LED technology, ewo has made an important contribution here, and along with its partner Avionics, it has supplied fifty F32 floodlights.

I've always enjoyed the 7 deadly sins as thematic material for art and literature. So I got a big kick out of the following use of the 7 sins to structure a narrative on bad web design. Its origin is a webinair by Seth Rosenblatt at the American Marketing Association. It came to me via a newsletter by Lynn Ericson from Ericson Mitchell. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

"The web design of this web site is horrible." My daughter was rather annoyed. She had looked up the web site of a local bookstore because she wanted to call them about a book. All she needed was the phone number. Her irritation increased the more she had to click around to find such an obvious piece of information.
How many businesses get caught up with slick, flashy web design but forget to take care of basic information? How many times have you had to click Contact Us to get to a phone number? I've visited sites where the phone number or location are seriously buried.
If you want people to call you or locate your place of business, put that information in a prominent location on every page, and never beneath the fold. Consider other factors that contribute to visibility: contrast, font size and color, reverse type, and so forth.
Check out these business sites and see how long it takes you to find the phone number.

Although wool for winter isn't exactly groundbreaking in trend terms, knitwear was literally big news on the AW14 catwalks.
Fashion label the Row took the prize for most oversized, with a humongous cowl-necked jumper and trousers combo, while Stella McCartney and yarn aficionado Mark Fast also went for the slouch-factor with layers of chunky woollens.
Even designers who usually shy away from such organic fabrics, like Phoebe Philo at Celine, spun a yarn with head-to-toe ribbed knits.
From blanket wraps to stand-out separates, face the frosty weather with our pick of the wool pack.
Supersize me
Go the catwalk route with slouchy, supersized knitwear – the bigger the better.
A hefty cowl collar, chunky cable detailing and lengthy scarves all fit the bill. Worried these bulky details will supersize you too? Then look for pieces with just one of the above.
A long sleeveless tunic with a cowl neck, for example, is slim enough to wear under your winter coat, doing away with the need for a scarf. Plus you can layer it over trousers or tights to dress up or down.
To get on the wool bandwagon try a Scarlett Sleeveless Roll Neck Jumper, £45; Chester Blanket Coat, £129; Heidi Leather Skirt, £149, Lisbon Box Calf Chelsea Boots, £79, all from .
Or for the more intense look go for a Pale Pink Cowl Neck Tunic, £38.
Transmit your coordinates
The most faithful catwalk homages on the high street are the head-to-toe coordinate sets in wheat and stone hues.
It's a tricky look to pull off – not least because it bears more than a passing resemblance to PJs but the key is in how you accessorise. If you're going casual, stick to ballet flats or high-top trainers, but to dress them up, let the trouser hems fall over pointed-toe stiletto boots and add a couple of gold bangles or a cocktail ring.
Work this look with a Wool Top, £34.99, and Trousers, £39.99 (in store end of November.
Or mic cutting edge with classic with Knit Flared Trousers, £59.99 from .
Fuzzy logic
How to tap into the head-to-toe trend without going totally coordinated? By mixing and matching woollen separates.
With so many touchable textures going on, it's wise to limit your colour palette. Autumnal reds and browns go well together, as do pale, fawny tones, the ideal match for brown leather accessories.
Texturise with an Fluffy Knit Mini Skirt, £19 or get touchy feely in a Nude Mongolian Trim Knit Gilet, £129.
Blanket coverage
The ultimate winter woollen, a capacious cardigan or blanket coat is the perfect style prescription for self-diagnosed Seasonal Affective Disorder.
For the great outdoors, show off in a zip hem cardy or wrap yourself in a cosy blanket wrap, belting it up if you want to add definition to your waistline.
Wrap up in Stone Cocoon Zip Hem Cardigan, £55, or make it a Mink Colour Block Wrap from , £35.
'It' knits
If washed-out woollens aren't your thing, pick one impactful piece and work your outfit around it.
A longline sweater dress is a great multi-tasker, letting you dial the dressiness up or down according to your mood: wear it with tights and over-knee boots for the style of the season or pull it on over skinny jeans at the weekend.
Great pieces are on offer including 's Remi Jumper, £150 or Houndstooth Tunic, £180.

"LLANDEFAILOG-FACH, a parish in the hundred of Merthyr, county Brecon, 3 miles N.E. of Brecon, its post town, and 11 from Builth. It is situated on the banks of the small river Honddu, and the old Roman road Sarn Helen, which passes through the parish. It includes the township of Llanfihangel-Feehan. The ground, though hilly, is well adapted for agriculture. The living is a rectory in the diocese of St. David's, value £368, in the patronage of the lord chancellor. The church, dedicated to St. Tyvaelog, was, with the exception of the old tower, rebuilt in 1831. It contains the monuments and tombs of the Powel, Watkins, and other families. There is also the district church of Llanfihangel-Fechan, the living of which is a perpetual curacy, value £65. The charitable endowments produce about £12 per annum. Llandefailog House and Glan Honddu are the principal residences."[Description(s) from The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland (1868) Transcribed by Colin Hinson ©2003]

This coin has had a rough century (a bit like the Austro Hungarian Empire). I would grade in VG8, but that might be a bit generous.
*Correction: This is a Hungarian, or an AustroHungarian coin, rather than belonging solely to Austria. I cataloged it incorrectly in the title (but have left it that way so that this correction makes sense). Please see the comments for more information.
On the obverse, it shows the bust of Franz Joseph I of Austria facing to the right and wearing a laurel wreath. The legend wraps from 7:00 to 5:00 and reads "Ferencz Jozsef I * K * A * CS * ES M * H * S * D * O * AP * KIR."
On the reverse, an Austrian crown is surrounded by an upturned wreath. The crown has a crooked cross on top (canted 45 degrees to the left) and strange ear straps hanging down. The denomination is under the crown and above the wreath "1 Korona" with the date below.
Identification code: Austria KM-2820, minted from 1912-1916
Date: 1915
Mint Mark: n/a ("K.B." under the bust are the designer's initials)
Mintage: 23,000,000 (the largest mintage of this series)
Country of origin: Austria
Composition: 83.5% Silver
Size: 22 mm
Weight: 5g (0.1342 oz ASW)
Other details: Unlike other Austrian coins from 1915 (specifically the 1915 gold ducats), the silver bullion issues were not reminted in later years without changing the date. So, the 23M mintage figure is firm.
Estimated Value: $4-5 with silver at ~$33/oz

Welcome to Caraval, where nothing is quite what it seems.
Scarlett has never left the tiny isle of Trisda, pining from afar for the wonder of Caraval, a once-a-year weeklong performance where the audience participates in the show.
Caraval is magic. Mystery. Adventure. And for Scarlett and her beloved sister, Tella, it represents freedom and an escape from their ruthless, abusive father. When the sisters' long-awaited invitations to Caraval finally arrive, it seems their dreams have come true. But no sooner have they arrived than Tella vanishes, kidnapped by the show's mastermind organiser, Legend.
Scarlett has been told that everything that happens during Caraval is only an elaborate performance. Nonetheless, she quickly becomes enmeshed in a dangerous game of love, magic and heartbreak. And whether it's real or not, she must find Tella before the game is over and her sister disappears forever.

"Don't Waste Your Time "
I found this after reading the wonderful 'Strange the Dreamer' ... you know, through the 'you may also like...' type of links.
I wish I hadn't. It's a disgraceful, clumsy, childish, concoction of pretty words trying to disguise the lack of any cohesive plot. The characters are to a last one, uninteresting, shameful stereotypes. The vacuous interview with the author at the end is very telling; if it had been at the start, I could have saved some precious time. Worst Book Ever! Zero stars would be more accurate than one star.
"Mumbo jumbo Mills and Boon"
This was a disappointing story, an unconvincing and not very likable or smart heroine, and an unconvincing one dimensional bad guy.
"Confusingly brilliant"
This book was my type of genre and I thoroughly recommend it as the story was so thrilling you didn't know what to believe! This mostly circulates the bonds of sisterhood and magic!
"was recommended this book will recommend it too."
absolutely loved thus book. captivat3e from the start. a utter wonderful mixture of ups Nd downs throughout the plot line. leaving open the way for a pet two. which I sincerely hope there will be. the narration was on point. Can't fault that in any. anticipating more .
"Magic, Mystery and Attraction"
I feel Caraval is a romantic fantasy thriller full of magic, mystery and attraction, with lots of twists and turns.
The performance was full of drama and emotion.
"Very good book"
At first I was worried that this was just going to be a night circus spin off but it's a fabulous story in its own right. It's very dark in places and it leave you feeling emotionally exhausted! I liked the narration and I would recommend this book. I hope book two comes out quickly as you get left with a bit of a cliffhanger
"captivating story"
loved it. the story had me hooked from the outset, and I was desperate to keep listening to find out what happened.
"Nice start. Impossible to finish, causes severe eye rolling."
Nice start and then it got cheesy and more cheesy and eventually unbearably cheesy. Probably ok for Spanish soap opera lovers.
I had never read anything by this author before so I had no idea what to expect but I'm so glad I gave it a chance. it's one of the best books I've read in a long time.
I thoroughly enjoyed caravaI, i didn't guess any of the plots, it enticed me throughout the whole book so much I didn't want to put down or end. definetly would recommend.

I'll of course jump on this one. Probably get another smite or two from the smite-rodents, but that's ok. I think Croom is a fantastic place to ride (XC), and have 2 friends who feel the same way. Also, I met a van load of guys up at Santos who are big fans (and regular riders) of the place as well.In terms of local businesses, I've stopped more than a couple of times at the Kangaroo gas station/mini-mart at the corner of 41 & Croom rd, and also frequent the Publix in Brooksville and the health food store there as well quite often when I pass to do a ride.Also, I'm not sure how many of the riders are on the boards here, but I generally see at least a couple of cars with bike racks in the lot when I ride there, and frequently there are 3 or 4 more than that.
Curious as to how many on here, or people you may know that are not on here, that enjoy the Croom Mountain Bike Trail System?
What's the deal Garry? Who's making those ridiculous comments?
Quote from: Luis on April 22, 2009, 06:40:57 PM What's the deal Garry? Who's making those ridiculous comments?I'll just say this - just some ramblings from a neer do well who probably should not have spoken.Also, the mountain biking community should let the area businesses know who we are, why we are in the area spending money, and we are thankful they are there...just for future use. ;-)
Aside: Are the hiking/horse trails facing the same scuttlebutt?

Iraqis defied bomb and mortar attacks that killed 38 people Sunday to vote in parliamentary elections considered a test of the country's democracy.
The polls have closed, and vote counting has begun, but the United Nations says early results will not be available for days.
Iraq's Shi'ite prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, faces tough competition in the race from former Shi'ite allies, as well as Sunni and Kurdish politicians. No party is expected to win an outright victory, so the new government likely will be a coalition. Whoever leads the new government will oversee the withdrawal of U.S. troops, scheduled to be completed by the end of next year.
U.S. President Barack Obama congratulated the Iraqi people Sunday for voting despite the acts of violence.

Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) has cosponsored bipartisan, bicameral legislation, which was introduced today to reform current U.S. sugar policy. Specifically, this bill would repeal the sugar loan program, the marketing allotment, and the price support.
"The current sugar policy was initially set to expire in 1940 and includes outdated sugar policies that artificially inflate prices, limit domestic production, and impose strict import quotas," said Latta.
The bill would also replace inflexible quota restrictions with a system that would ensure an adequate and reasonably priced sugar supply in the United States in order to keep the U.S. sugar processing industry competitive.
"These uncompetitive policies create domestic sugar prices that are two to three times higher than the rest of the world, hindering food and beverage production, as well as jobs. It is estimated that the sugar-using industry generates approximately 32,200 jobs in Ohio and in the Fifth Congressional District of Ohio, Spangler Candy Company has around 300 local employees," Latta concluded.

Don't look for their names in the credits, but US car makers are increasingly going to Hollywood, taking starring roles in movies and even helping write scripts.
In the unending battle to get their brands noticed and grab market share, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler are shifting more of their advertising budgets away from television commercials, which consumers increasingly avoid.
The Ford F150 utility will play a leading part in xXx: State of the Union, from Revolution Studios, starring Ice Cube and Samuel L. Jackson, a soon-to-be-released follow-up to the 2002 movie xXx .
Ford, the world's third largest car maker, signed a unique deal in 2003 with Revolution, whose movies include America's Sweethearts (2001) starring Julia Roberts and Maid in Manhattan (2002) with Jennifer Lopez. It gave Ford the right to put its vehicles into any of the company's films. Ford can also help write its vehicles into the script.
While other brands hire outside firms to get their vehicles in movies, Ford last year opened an office in Beverly Hills, California, to work directly with movie makers. Al Uzielli, a cousin of Ford chief executive Bill Ford jnr, heads the office.
Ford will not show its vehicles in certain scenes, however. "If it's a vehicle crash scene, or it's an SUV (four-wheel-drive) rolling over, I can tell you, it won't be our car in it," Uzielli says.
At the Chicago motor show last month, Chrysler set up what it said was the world's largest indoor test track. Show-goers could test drive Chrysler, Dodge or Jeep vehicles over an 800-metre course at the show.
"What we're trying to do is to find ways to really connect to our customers in an experiential and interactive way," said Joe Eberhardt, executive vice-president of Chrysler's global sales and marketing.
The Chrysler side of DaimlerChrysler had its first auto-show test track in New York last year, which resulted in 36,000 test drives, with 8 percent of the drivers going on to buy a Chrysler product. Normally, only 0.5 to one percent of auto show attendees buy a vehicle, Eberhardt said.
Meanwhile, Chrysler's Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Grand Cherokee will appear prominently in action movie Sahara, starring Penelope Cruz and Matthew McConaughey.
The motor vehicle industry will spend an estimated $US10.9 billion ($A13.8 billion) on advertising this year, up about 7 percent from $US10.2 billion in 2004, according to Merrill Lynch analyst John Casesa. However, an increasing amount of that spending is directed away from TV ads and towards movies, video games, test drives and events such as motor shows. The trend is not limited to American brands. Consumer recognition remains the biggest obstacle for Korean brand Kia, but more TV advertising is not the answer, said Peter Butterfield, head of Kia's US arm. Kia relies on techniques such as direct mail and internet ads, he said. Last year Kia gave away a Shrek 2 DVD to consumers who took a test drive.
"Most consumers don't believe TV commercials," Mr Butterfield told reporters at the auto show. "We shifted our marketing from about 100 percent TV three years ago to 75 percent TV."

Hi all -
I am craving the "dao xiao mian" (handmade chewy noodles cut from ball with a knife) that I had when I visited Beijing. Any recs in L.A. Chinatown or somewhere else in the city? (SGV is Chinese cuisine is better, I know, but it's difficult for me to get there regularly.) Thank you!

Dear All, thank you so much for your posts and PMs - they have meant a great deal to me, and helped me through this really difficult week. I was preparing myself for the worst, that this was the end of the road, but surgery today had the best possible outcome - a tiny adhesion just over the cervix was causing the problem, and the FS removed it. The hysteroscopy showed there was no scarring in the rest of the uterus! I had had an AF, as the blood test showed, so it has come out naturally (sorry if TMI). She said everything else looked fine, has put me on Progynova to boost my lining and will scan me again in two weeks. So, so relieved. I thought I was really prepared for everything but cried all the way home in the car, just so glad that my baby dream isn't over.
Starfish, you are right, those of us unfortunate enough to have gone through miscarriage know what our bodies are telling us. Looking to the positive, it is clear as day that your body is ready to be pregnant, and now that you are on the ED track we can be very hopeful of a quick and sticky BFP, with a beautiful baby at the end. I am so sorry you have had to go through all of this, I just hope that you can heal quickly, physically and emotionally. It sounds though that in a way, this miscarriage - as awful as it is - has gifted you certainty about the ED path? Its great that your sister has taken time pressure is off, so that you can get yourself in the best possible shape for your ED cycle.
Mum4nay, thanks, as always, for your lovely words of support. I am glad to hear all is progressing well, am sure you will have some lovely pictures of a healthy little bub on Friday!
DrM, thanks for popping in here and keeping an eye on us! I think I am ready to sign myself up for the IVF Post Traumatic Stress 'club' - permanent life membership ! Can't wait to hear about your bub's arrival.
PinkB, so glad to hear things are going well with you. Also sending you good vibes for a happy, healthy bubs at your scan
Hi Slinky if you are lurking out there

Hello everyone
Very long time no write for me. Sorry for the prolonged silence. We've just come back from a fantastic holiday in Broome/the Kimberley. A couple of weeks of camping and chilling out on Cable Beach - so good to escape the hideous Canberra winter!
I have been lurking a little and have kept abreast of people's news, of which there is, as ever, such a mixed bag.
Tryingfor2 - so relieved for you that this latest setback is not a major one. It is just not fair that you've had to go through so much. I am so looking forward to a great outcome from the upcoming FET and have very positive feelings about it.
Starf1sh - I think T42 put it perfectly when she said that it is so clear that your body is ready to be pregnant. It is wonderful news that your sister has agreed to be your ED. What an amazing gift. It does seem that your latest experience has confirmed that the donor pathway is the right one. If it is possible to put a positive construction on it, then I guess that is it. On the other hand, like others, I weep for all you've had to go through and hope so much that you get a quick, sticky pregnancy with a gorgeous bundle of joy at the end.
all our UTD ladies - PinkB, mum4nay, Gardenia - wonderful to hear that all is progressing smoothly for you all. Your experiences have given me hope that it could work again for us too. Have everything crossed that everyone's scans over the next little while confirm healthy, growing bubs. Very exciting for you all.
melk - CONGRATULATIONS on the arrival of your beautiful little Isabelle. A dream come true - sends shivers down my spine. I hope you are enjoying every single moment. A true miracle
DrM - I think 26 July was the day you were thinking might be the one??? Hope all is going well in this final countdown and that the birth is a smooth and joyful event. I completely understand about the post-traumatic stress with TTC. Even after 2 children, I think it is still there under the surface. Probably not helped by going for a third and not having too easy a time of it, but so hard to ignore those biological urges...
millie - what is happening with you hon? I think you have your FET in August?? Hope you are not going too crazy with the wait.
Apologies and a big to the ladies I've missed...
AFM - we have decided to go ahead with an FET with our one frosty. Have to wait until after next AF because of the timing of our holiday, so it should all happen in the second half of August. If that doesn't work, we will do one more stim cycle. When I saw her a few weeks ago, FS remained quite confident that it was a case of finding the right embie.
28-07-2011 15:38 #1016
Slinky - Glad to hear you have been having a well earned getaway - a winter escape sounds absolutely wonderful - how relaxing! Glad you have some plans for your nest FET, I am sure your FS is right as you have had great quality embryo's.
Mum4nay good luck for tomorrow.
Dr Mummy - thinking of you
Starfish - hope ur doing ok, thinking of you

Trying - hooray, at last you have a break!! Big big hugs
Slinky - good to hear from you! Your holiday sounds great - camping really gets you back in touch with what's important in life I believe... and I bet the kids loved it too
Good luck with the upcoming FET...
Hi to everyone else
29-07-2011 13:02 #1018
Trying42, GREAT news!!! So pleased for you, can only imagine your relief. Lots and lots of for your FET, keep us posted on your progress.
Thanks Trying and Slinky for your beautiful words I really appreciated them and yes I do feel quite convinced now that ED is the right path for us. There are not many more options I could explore with my own eggs save repeated PGD cycles (which is hard on the bank balance and no guarantee of normal embies) or continuing to TTC naturally and risk yet more MC's
Slinky, great to hear from you, you've been missed! Your family holiday in WA sounds wonderful (although I am absolutely not a camper these days as spent all my childhood holidays camping! ) It sounds like you have a really well considered and sustainable plan for TTC no.3. You might be transferring around the same time as Trying? Did you get all the answers you were seeking in regards to thryoid issues?
Mum4nay, hope all goes wonderfully today and bubba behaves so you get an awesome pic!
PinkB, lovely!
DrM, I'm stalking every day waiting for news!? Hope bubba is just around the corner
AFM, hcg and P4 are taking quite a long time to come down Hcg still in 300's, P4 in the 30's and repeat bt in a week. I hate this part! Still bleeding intermittently and told to expect more but hoping this is a good sign that it will resolve by itself.
Things are really moving along with my ED cycle. I decided to email donor coordinator in regards to my concerns and cc: FS and that seems to have gotten the rocket under them! Most of sis' bt's are back, still awaiting karyotyping and CF, and her AMH is not too bad (well it's double mine which is a good sign! )
for cycle being able to still go ahead Sept/Oct.
Glorious, sunny Sydney winter day here. Have a great weekend ALL

Starfish Sorry to hear things are going slow for you, but glad you won't need a D&C. So glad you have been able to get things moving with the donor side of things - glad your sis's AMH is good. How did week 1 of your new job go???
So glad to see the sun in Sydney too, have a great weekend all

Hello Madame Butterfly!
My 1st week went really well, thanks for asking. It is really interesting and invigorating to learn about a new area of practice and everyone there has been incredibly nice and helpful. One small moment of awkwardness arose for me when one of my new colleagues (who is also mentoring me at the moment) announced her pregnancy on day 2 of my new job But thankfully I recovered myself pretty well!
When is your NT scan booked for?

The Magie Bank
by Sy Schreckinger – ANTIQUE TOY WORLD Magazine – June, 2003
Sorcery and divination have fascinated and
bedazzled audiences over the centuries. Modern society offers such form of
entertainment with its fortunetellers, psychics, stage illusionists and
the like. These "performers" offer intrigue and mystery as they attempt to
open hidden doors to the occult.
The subject of this article represents one of a group of ancient
sorcerers known as Magi, or Magie. This priestly sect of wise men
practiced their form of magic throughout the Persian Empire during the
First Century A.D. The creation of the "Magi" mechanical bank (Figure 1)
was one twentieth century designer's tribute to these magicians.
Unfortunately, no information is available that would acknowledge
either the mechanical's creator or distributor. However, wordage printed
around its base does indicate the bank's country of origin. The letters "D.R.G.M."
and the name "GERMANY" not only identify the bank as a product of Germany,
but also establish the date of manufacture as circa 1900-1935. During this
time period, manufactured goods considered by the German Patent Office to
be "unimportant" were imprinted with the letters "D.R.G.M." ("Deutsches
Reichs Gebrach Musters"). Such documents were government mandated to be
routinely destroyed after fifteen years, thus relegating these "frivolous"
goods, particularly toys, to an obscure heritage. As with so many other
survivors of that era, it is hoped that a catalog or advertising flyer
might surface which would provide much needed historical data.
The "Magie" is one of a group of mechanicals produced both here and
abroad that specifically features the illusion of the "disappearing coin".
Other notables comprising this provocative family include: "Magician Bank"
(Antique Toy World, February 1985), "Presto Trick Drawer Bank" (A.T.W.,
April 1992), "Freedman's Bureau" (A.T.W.,
June 1997), "Chandler's Bank",
Clark's "Child's Bank", "Serrill's Bureau", several "Trick Drawer" money
boxes, etc.
It is interesting that the designer/manufacturer of the "Magie Bank"
attempted to incorporate an element of historical and regional
authenticity into their creation. Note the Middle Eastern/Persian motif
decorating the front and side panels of the Magie's table. Such subtle yet
attractive touches, so reminiscent of most early German tin mechanicals,
add greatly to the bank's desirability.
The "Magie Bank" is considered quite scarce. Fortunate is the
collector able to add a fine, all original example to his/her collection.
Action of the "Magie Bank" is interesting and appropriate to the
subject. A coin is placed within the circular depression on the top of the
table (Figure 2). The lever behind the "Magie" is pressed downward. This
causes the arms and hands holding the square cover to lower, thus hiding
the coin from sight (Figure 1). When the lever is released, the arms rise
upward, lifting the cover and, presto, the coin has disappeared! Deposits
are recovered by opening the key lock, trap door type coin retainer
located underneath the base.
In Figure 3 is seen the front, back, and both sides of an original
cardboard box which housed a "Magie Bank" when it was initially offered
for sale. It, too, can offer no information since it lacks identifying
marks that might have furnished evidence of the bank's manufacture, etc.
Dimensions of the "Magie Bank" are as follows: Height from base to
top of hat: 6-7/8 inches; Width of base: 3-1/16 inches. To my knowledge
this mechanical has not been reproduced. These measurements are provided
solely to aid the collector in determining size and scale.
Acknowledgement: The mint example "Magic Bank" seen in Figure 1 and
its cardboard box, Figure 3, are in the collection of Steve and Marilyn

A man who was struck by an SUV and killed while trying to cross a road in the Midway district Sunday was identified by authorities Wednesday as Arnold William Kyle.
The 44-year-old man was trying to walk across Rosecrans Street at Kurtz Street about 8:45 p.m., the county Medical Examiner's Office said.
Kyle was struck by a Jeep Grand Cherokee going south on Rosecrans. He was taken to UCSD Medical Center, where he underwent surgery, but died about 10 p.m.
San Diego police said the driver stopped, and was not cited.

- Allow our kataifi pastry to thaw completely before opening the packet. Remove from the refrigerator a minimum of 2 hours before using.
- The kataifi will be in a "ball" and should be pulled apart, separated and "fluffed up" by pulling the strands apart. Do not be scared to be quite vigorous when doing this as it will lead to better results.
- Prepare all other ingredients before you remove the pastry from its plastic bag. Kataifi pastry will dry out if left exposed, so it is best to work quickly with the pastry, maybe even covering it with a slightly damp tea towel if required.
- Unused kataifi pastry should be rolled up and SEALED TIGHTLY back into its plastic bag, placed back in the packet and returned to the refrigerator as soon as you have finished using it.
For more kataifi pastry handling tips, visit our Youtube page here.

Sofia Sarri - Euphoria (2017)
I had a special relationship with Night on Earth when I lived in Athens as I had the chance to watch them live numerous times, one with Thanasis Papakonstaninou of course. That band was a special case to say the least, as they were something like a more classical (in orchestration) version of Portishead, mixing this with post-rock formulas which, 10+ years ago, hadn't yet become so trite, in my opinion. Night on Earth's ace in the sleeve though was none other than small and delicate Sofia who, just by looking at her, it didn't look like she could pull this strength. The whole Night on Earth collective was always comprised by skilled musicians, but this voice automatically set them several levels higher.
To be honest, I haven't followed on Sofia's activities for many years now, and this album is an unexpected pleasant surprise. This girl here obviously just does as she likes and this shows the width of her influences. Stepping even on the avant-garde limits, she uses acoustic and greek traditional instruments for her voice to step on, in jazz rhythms at one time and in more classical ones at the other, always in an intense dark melodiousness, and a latent "norwegian" feeling. For instance, Kari Ruesslatten came a lot on my mind, among others. Anyway, I think I've said enough, you can listen for yourselves:

Belated obsessions: The Men - New Moon (2013)
Until last year when (I don't really remember why or how) I started listening to New Moon which was lurking in my hard drive for a couple of years. The sweet and mellow melody of the opener "Open the Door" caught my attention and the first thought on my mind was "hey hm yeah these guys are usually unpredictable, this is probably just an intro or something". But with track 2 "Half Angel Half Light" I started thinking that we probably have something special here after all. Going through to the end of the album, I wanted more. I pushed play again. And again, and again. I think this is as much as you need if you'ew going to realize that this is not a common album.
The Men, in New Moon, sounded like a slightly different band from how I remembered them or from the idea I had about them. Here, we have a maturity that is usually carried by a band that has conquered its influences, has set its musical limits with a defining certainty, and now feels comfortable to wander anywhere its mood tells it to. New Moon is considerably softer than its predecessors, increasing the use of acoustic instruments and decreasing the noise elements (although they are not totally absent). The final result is warm but also bitter, melodic but also dark, soft but also harsh. From the nostalgic harmonica in "Bird Song" to the unstoppable pounding of "the Brass", and from the melancholic melody of "I See No One" to "Supermoon"'s noisy psychedelic outbreak, this is a record that can stand the test of time as it clearly is a depiction of the creators' psyche, nothing more and nothing less. Have a taste.

Reveal - Flystrips (2016)
It is my first contact with these guys. Reveal come from Uppsala, Sweden and I could say that they're a pure hate-them-or-get-hooked-on-them case. Their lo-fi, nihilistic, misanthropic, grumpy and cacophonous sound is a blend of numerous things, or it is numerous things that come to one's mind listening to them. Early '90s Norwegian blackmetal, noise rock, alternative, punk, '80s-era Bathory, and so on. This was a purely unexpected musical experience for me, and I really can't beginto describe about nerves it touches in me as iot probably touches different ones for everyone else but in the end I'm sure that it triggers the same things to everyone that has grown up with dark music in general during the '90s. Enough with words, this is a record one just has to experience.

Top 10 albums of 2016 (aka maybe establishing a tradition)
1. True Moon - s/t
2. This Is Nowhere - Music to Relapse
This phenomenon of a band may theoretically be characterized and categorized under certain genres and labels, but a closer look reveals an abyss for you to explore. Their debut album last year, although still great, I can say it missed the great expectations by half an inch. This one right here... well, it just leaves you speechless. Stepping on Monster Magnet, Kyuss and Velvet Underground at the same time (among many others of course), here we have a collection of tracks that are created only once in a decade or so.
3. Sarabante - Poisonous Legacy
How can an absolutely perfect debut album be topped? Well, Poisonous Legacy is the answer. Sarabante return even more focused, darker, angrier and more dystopic, while melodic at the same time. The overall result is just crushing and the album is consumed every time in one sip.
4. Birthday Kicks - Black Echo Trap
Although I was anticipating their first full-length release (after that great debut 7" single) while Birthday Kicks were taking their sweet time completing it, this one sure took me by surprise. It was just too good; warm and fuzzy rock 'n' roll flowing just naturally and enjoyably. This is an album that appeals to garage rock fans, to stoner fans, to psychedelic rock fans; it simply combines all the best elements of just everything.
5. Καταχνιά - Στη Σκιά Μιας Λαιμητόμου (Katachnia - Sti Skia Mias Lemitomou)
Again, a sophomore release that manages to, not only live up to its predecessor's legacy, but also extend it even further. Katachnia continue to combine the crust punk principles with the greek punk values maintaining an absolutely personal sound and staying true to the tradition they have set.
6. UXO - s/t
Those who know me, even not very much, also know that I'm a sucker for some Unsane-like noise rock. Well, this is my dose for 2016. Today Is the Day's Steve Austin and Unsane's Chris Spencer are teaming up for this project and it just ruled my speakers for weeks. If you know what I'm talking about, you know this rocks.
7. Touché Amoré - Stage Four
What is this? Emo? Screamo? Any other shit the kids nowadays are listening to? Don't care. And when a concidence is repeated, well, it doesn't constitute a concidence anymore. I had loved 2014's Is Survived By but, to be honest, I hadn't really put Touché Amoré really high in my conscience. Stage Four came to change that and to make me a fan. It's surprising how naturally this album flows, how melodic, emotional and powerful it is at the same time. I will keep these guys close from now on.
Avant-garde blackmetal/shoegaze anyone? This could be a dry description of Oathbreaker, but it in no way can contain everything that is encased in this album. Caro Tanghe doesn't only scream anymore (not that we don't absolutely love her when she does), but has developed to a full leading persona. Oathbreaker take things several steps further with Rheia and, while until now you could more or less compare them with other bands, now they just play on a league of their own.
9. Ruined Families - Education
This one just exploded on our faces and it just is beyond words. This is hardcore punk, mathcore, post-hardcore, alternative rock and noise rock at the same time. It grabs you by the neck and doesn't leave room for even a hint of escaping. Kick in the gut, elbow on the teeth, strike between the eyes. That's what it is.
10. Minerva Superduty - Gorod Zero
I'll be honest. I never "understood" mathcore. I have rarely put on such music to listen to at home. And I still don't know what exactly it is that has made me love this album so much. Maybe it's their uncompromised hardcore character, maybe the raw despair that flows through the speakers. All in all, Minerva Superduty confuse me. I don't know how they do what they do, or why. All I know is that Gorod Zero has me hooked.
Sleep of Monsters - II: Poison Garden: I couldn't even begin to tell you how much of a Babylon Whores fanboy I have been and the Sleep of Monsters' debut release in 2013 made me rejoice. Poison Garden takes over where Produces Reason left off, in a more melodic, mellow and choral way.
