New 'SNL' Promo Restores Betty White Fever
And while no other prescription will do, this new promo for the long-awaited, fan-engineered May 8 episode certainly helps.
"Thanks to the Internet, I'm hosting 'Saturday Night Live,'" the 88-year-old 'Golden Girls' and 'Mary Tyler Moore Show' star says in the first promo, joking about herself as a cougar. Check it out:
We've missed that sass and wit in recent weeks, with White's name only popping up in defense of Sandra Bullock or in false death reports.
Also boosting the mercury on the Betty White thermometer, this St. Olaf Glee Club rap tribute to the octogenarian of the moment [Warning, contains a bit of foul language]:
PEOPLE reports the special Mother's Day episode will also reunite six former 'SNL' ladies: Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Maya Rudolph, Ana Gasteyer and Rachel Dratch.
"Retirement is not in my vocabulary," White told USA Today in January. Thank goodness.

I have followed SNL since the beginning in 1975. I love Betty White...always have, always will. And I'm betting that this will be the most watched SNL since it's inception.
- Tuesday 27 AprilBy Peaches31410
Betty will be one of the best hosts SNL has ever had! If I could tell her one thing it would be to be your usual genuinely funny self and please, please, don't do vulgar stuff on SNL like so many do today. You are good and you don't need to take cheap, vulgar shots.
- Tuesday 27 AprilBy psridgell
I remember her in the 1950's, she was funny then, nothing's changed.
Betty, will you marry me?

This is going to be awesome! So happy Betty's going to be on SNL. I haven't watched SNL in so long but this one is definitely not one to miss! Thanks Lorne for listening to the fans!!

Kent Tsujimoto Rumors
Mets Sign Three To Minor League Deals
After reaching the majors for the first time last season at age 31, Jesus Feliciano was dropped from the Mets' 40-man roster shortly after the season. A few months later, however, Feliciano is returning to New York. The team re-signed the outfielder on a minor league deal, tweets Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork. The Mets also inked Chris Shelton and Kent Tsujimoto to minor league contracts.
Before making his major league debut last June, Feliciano had spent his last four seasons playing for the Mets' Triple-A affiliate. Though he doesn't hit for much power, slugging just 18 homers in more than 5,000 minor league plate appearances, the lefty has hit .317 in AAA for the Mets over the last four years.
Shelton, 30, has seen time in the majors with the Tigers, Rangers, and Mariners. The first baseman is perhaps best remembered for his torrid start in Detroit in 2006, when he homered nine times in his first 13 games. He hasn't played in the bigs since he earned 28 plate appearances for Seattle in 2009.
Tsujimoto, a 22-year-old Japanese right-hander, pitched for Na Koa Ikaika Maui of the Golden Baseball League in 2010, recording a 2.88 ERA and 12.6 K/9 in 32 relief appearances.

Lord Mandelson makes grab for levers of power
Related Articles
Published: 21 July 2009
Lord Mandelson's dominance over the Government was revealed today as it emerged that Gordon Brown has handed him unprecedented influence.
Downing Street said the Business Secretary, who also has the title of First Secretary of State, is now a member of no fewer than 35 key Cabinet committees.
The move means that Lord Mandelson has an input on policy on everything from swine flu to climate change, from the economy to Afghanistan, from the Olympics to crime.
Together with his unofficial role as a daily adviser to Mr Brown and his huge Department of Business, Innovation and Skills, the peer's new roles mean that he is effectively deputy prime minister in all but name.
But unlike John Prescott or Michael Heseltine, Lord Mandelson's roles extend across huge areas of government activity, a fact that will be underlined when he takes over while Mr Brown is on holiday this summer.
Conservative Party chairman Eric Pickles said: "It is quite obvious that Peter Mandelson is the real unelected prime minister pulling the strings from No 10.
"He is Gordon Brown's political life support machine, keeping the plotters at bay. He sadly typifies the Prime Minister's unhealthy reliance on unelected officials." Lord Mandelson's influence is seen by MPs as a reward for the key role he played in foiling the attempt to topple the Prime Minister. He is believed to have persuaded ministers such as Foreign Secretary David Miliband to stay in post and get behind Mr Brown for one last time.
His expanding remit has recently prompted speculation that he could become a potential Labour leader next year if he decides to quit as a peer and run as an MP again.
Lord Mandelson is a member of 80 per cent of the 43 Cabinet committees and sub-committees. Mr Prescott never attended more than 17 Cabinet committees.
But Lord Mandelson is relied on by Mr Brown to act as his cross-Whitehall troubleshooter, often deputising for him on key subjects.
The peer is deputy chairman of the crucial Domestic Policy Committee and chairs the Post Office network sub-committee.
He also sits on Cabinet committees covering Africa, children and schools, local government, security, housing, food, energy and trade.
Lord Mandelson was handed his new title of First Secretary of State in the reshuffle last month. He was also give a new, expanded department of Business, Innovation and Skills, which boasts the largest number of ministers in Whitehall. He has 11 ministers who report to him on everything from trade to universities and manufacturing.
Along with Ed Balls, he is part of the tight inner circle of trusted ministers who brief Mr Brown across all policy areas.
The expanding Mandelsonia empire
Lord Mandelson now sits on the following Cabinet committees:
National Economic Council
Better Regulation
Democratic Renewal Council
Domestic Policy Council (which he deputy chairs)
Domestic Affairs
Borders and Migration
Communities and Equalities
Families, Children and Young People
Health and Wellbeing
Justice and Crime
Local Government and the Regions (which he chairs)
Public Engagement and the Delivery of Services

Legislation may enable states to offer universal healthcare
The catch is that to make universal coverage work at the state level, you'd need some way to channel Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare funds into the system. At the moment, that's difficult if not impossible. But legislation quietly being drafted by Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) would change that. It would create a mechanism for states to request federal funds after establishing their own health insurance programs. If passed into law, McDermott's State-Based Universal Healthcare Act would represent a game changer for medical coverage in the United States. It would, for the first time, create a system under which a Medicare-for-all program could be rolled out on a state-by-state basis.

Little All-City football: Austin Brooks makes right throw at right time for OCS
Brooks was aided by a talented stable of receivers and an OCS offensive line that allowed just five quarterback sacks on the season. Turner said what impressed him most about his quarterback this season was Brooks' composure in the pocket.
"As many times as we throw the ball (Brooks was 203 of 301 through the air with 12 interceptions this season), it takes a lot to stand back there and have guys coming at you all the time," Turner said. "He did a great job. He has a great touch on the ball but he can also rifle it in there."
OCS coaches knew they wanted Brooks as a quarterback when they first saw him pitch for the Saints' baseball team.
"We had seen him play baseball and we knew what he could do on the mound and how he wants the ball in his hand," Turner said. "He wants to command the game."
Brooks now has several small college recruiters talking to him about playing both football and baseball at their schools.
"I am interested in playing both (in college)," Brooks said.

Juwan Howard is first member of Michigan's "Fab Five" to win NBA title
Jun 23, 2012, 1:06 PM EST
It took Juwan Howard 18 years, but he finally won an NBA title. Not only is it the first title for him, but it's the first title for the famed "Fab Five" of Michigan in the early 1990s.
Of those five (Jalen Rose, Chris Webber, Jimmy King, Ray Jackson, and Howard) three had lengthy NBA careers, but only Howard has been able to bring home a title.
Granted, Howard wasn't necessarily the reason Miami won the title, considering he's 39 years old and averaged under seven minutes per game, but he was on a team that won it, none-the-less.
Webber was cursed by having to deal with Shaquille O'Neal and the Lakers during his prime early-2000 days, and Rose fell victim to those same Lakers in the 2000 NBA Finals.
Howard hasn't played regular minutes since 2009-10 with Portland, but he was a veteran on a Heat team that made use of his experience.
As for the rest of the Fab Five, Rose and Webber are both NBA analysts now, Jackson owns a non-profit organization, and King has battled some legal troubles after a long playing career abroad.
A well-done documentary about the Fab Five aired last year to much critical acclaim, which should help to preserve the rarity of the talented collection of youth at Michigan during the Fab Five era.
Their coach, Stever Fisher, is now at San Diego State, helping to build a contender out West. After surprising people two years ago, led by now-San Antonio Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard, Fisher kept the momentum going last season and is poised to have another contending team in 2012-13.

Wiolawa Press, submitted by Jesus.Before I visited Wiolawa Press, I had the impression that Adobe Photoshop was just a very good program for modifying images. Boy was I wrong. According to the woman who runs this site, Photoshop can be used to discover the vampires, aliens, and evil lizards that are surrounding us this very moment! It takes a few weeks to scroll down the site, but it is well worth it for the hundreds of links to fascinating discoveries of alien life forms. You don't even need to be an expert, you just have to use a combination of solarize, invert, chrome, and find edges, depending on the type of creature you are dealing with. If you enlarge the picture again and repeat the process, you can even see right through the hull of a space ship to see what kind of nasty creatures are lurking inside. It kind of reminds me of the movie "They Live" with Roddy Piper, where he used a special pair of sunglasses to see the aliens all around him. I was so excited with this discovery that I decided to try it out on somebody I suspected of being an alien for a long time now.
I knew it! So those of you who own Adobe Photoshop go ahead and give it a try. I think you'll find that the results will amaze you.

Fat Princess' new stompin' grounds at the game's demo booth at PAX -- you'll find his video preview of the Roman-esque New Pork arena posted after the jump. The map not only possesses a visual aesthetic that stands out from the title's pre-existing levels, it's also got a neat instant-travel sewer system and a central resource hub that should lend itself to some fairly hectic skirmishes.
Also discussed in the video is the upcoming content patch, which will renovate the ranking system, balance the classes a bit and make the team switching mechanic less exploitable. Not discussed are the quartet of new classes hinted at by Titan Studios last month. We want -- nay, we need ninjas in this game.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Some Work Needed
by Paul on 01/26/08 at 11:48 PM ET
Comments (0)
from David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,
ATLANTA – There are some wrinkles that need to be worked out for the NHL's skills competition.
The event was revamped for this year's all-star game, which led to some confusion for the spectators and media. At first, no one was sure if the contest started and then it was a little difficult sorting out who was winning in the fastest-skater event.
A new addition was the obstacle course, where players from each team tried to score on a tiny net after shooting the puck over a ramp, hit a target in the net from the blueline and then the goaltenders had to try and score on the net at the opposite end of the ice.
This one needs work. The most interesting part was watching the goalies try and score. Yep, as exciting as it sounds.

Spent the morning on the bike, 80km round trip to Takizawa cycles and back. Pics of the shop here. Just about my favourite shop here, it's near the Green Dome and would seem to support the riders with a full stock of NJS parts.
Full apart from hubs anyway, unfortunately the 7710 F&R sets were out of stock, at 99 quid they seemed fairly reasonable. Picked up some needed parts though:
They had a roulette game at the till too and I won 10% off :) Shame I couldn't have included some hubs in that though.
Fairly sure I've everything to make a rapid, if far from perfect build of the Bridgestone now.
Thanks for the info, looking around I figure my one was from around maybe 2003 or a little later. But certainly not the latter version.
As I'm not seeing anything locally I'm thinking I'll wait for my wheels to arrive and put on my larger 12-27 cassette and a standard 52x39 crankset and see how that goes. I think it ought to be ok as I've been using solely 36x19 going up hills which has been fine, and the above setup would give that and some easier gears too.
Anyway I took it out today, stuck to just a flat section in the big ring, then a hill in the small, was pretty good. I went looking for a local keirin pro I've seen practising with their coach on a set of gentle hills before and as luck would be they passed me by as I was sat having a drink, think it was the same person anyway.
Shame I couldn't get some better pics really. They practice on the inclines pictured over on my flickr.
Took a nice loop around some new roads - the joy of having a GPS with me, came across a shrine deep in the forest having taken a chance on a fork in the road.
In Japan for a few weeks and been setting up my Gillen with 10 speed parts and a compact drive-train:
Almost there now but had a couple of issues. Noticed some buckling around a spoke hole and investigating realised there were cracks in the rim at a half dozen driveside spoke holes. So, I've ordered some Araya rims on the cheap, just Y4400 and they should be along shortly. Then I noticed that the Chorus hubs are of the 26mm lockring variety and having only 27mm ones with me I've had to order one of those too from Germany, no idea how long that will take to arrive here. So short term I've ordered a pair of second hand CXP-22xMirage wheels for Y5800 which should be along in a few days and get me by.
In the meantime I decided I could get it on the road using the old 6 speed wheels and 8 speed chain and it had worked ok on a few rides, it indexes cleanly in around 3 or 4 rear cogs giving me at least some usable gears and a better range than it had previously.
Still, a bit of a disaster 10km into a ride today. Bearing in mind I'm taking things quite carefully due to the new setup and unfinished nature of it all, I upshifted the front gently from the 36 to 50 ring not for the first time, but then crruuuunk, this happened:
The photo is more or less as it would have looked looking down from the saddle, the derailleur has been caught and twisted during the shift. A standard 10 speed derailleur working with a compact crankset (Veloce CT) I thought would be ok, I know people use this setup, and it's not like the KMC 8 speed chain is so drastically different tech that this should occur. Knowing little about what causes front derailleur failure I'm a bit confused.
So I've bent back carefully the braze-on but I'm worried it's permanently weakened now, I've another Centaur derailleur at hand too but I'm considering my options, perhaps use a Shimano front derailleur, 5700 are cheap - that may shift better, or switch to either a triple (that I don't have) or a standard double (which I do).
All a bit frustrating, so I'm riding this around a bit instead, some Specialized thingy I know little about, but disc brakes seem fun:
And considering building this up too, hadn't been planning to, preferring just to be riding rather than building stuff up.

Mason County's Kennedy Creek is popular salmon-viewing site
Volunteers help inform visitors about cycle of life at site of one of Puget Sound's healthy chum salmon runs.
The Olympian
If you go
Getting there
Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail is between Olympia and Shelton off Highway 101. From Olympia, take 101 toward Shelton. Turn left on Old Olympic Highway between Mileposts 358 and 357. Go approximately .75 miles to a gravel road. Look for the Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail sign, and turn left onto the gravel road. Follow the road approximately a half-mile to the parking lot. Note: No dogs allowed.
About 70 people braved a recent wet Sunday to watch chum salmon complete their life cycle, swimming up Kennedy Creek in Mason County — about halfway between Olympia and Shelton — to spawn and die.
Visitors can watch all that take place at Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail, which offers trails and 11 viewpoints along them so the curious can see the fish in action, swimming to that spot on Kennedy Creek, or the shallower Fiscus Creek, to lay eggs where they were born.
Once the life cycle is under way, the chum salmon swim down the creek into Puget Sound, and then can spend two to three years in the Pacific Ocean — sometimes traveling as far as Japan — before coming home, said Kayta Tourtillot, an Avanti High School student and volunteer docent at the salmon trail.
Tourtillot and fellow docent and friend, Karina Cherniske of North Thurston High School, who both volunteered their time Sunday, were trained by the South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group, an organization that manages the trails, along with the Mason Conservation District. The property is owned by Taylor Shellfish, according to posted information.
The typical range of spawning salmon in Kennedy Creek is 20,000 to 40,000, although it can reach as high as 80,000, according to the South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group website.
Tourtillot and Cherniske were on hand to answer questions, such as those about the gender of the fish — males tend to have humped backs and hooked noses, females do not — spawning activity and the life cycle of the chum salmon.
They also recommended that visitors check out the salmon in Fiscus Creek because the creek is shallower, providing a better view of the fish struggling upstream. There also are plenty of dead fish along the creek and a faint odor of rotting salmon.
Tourtillot said she has been coming to the trail since she was 6 years old. She considers herself a "huge environmentalist" and loves to educate visitors about how amazing chum salmon are.
Cherniske, too, wanted to get involved because she loves the outdoors.
They also were tracking Sunday's attendance.
About 70 people had shown up by 1:30 p.m. Hundreds of people typically attend, they said, but the poor weather likely kept them away.
The Kennedy Creek Salmon Trail is open until Dec. 1, according to the South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group website. It is open to the general public on weekends, Veteran's Day and the day after Thanksgiving.

HONEYMOONERS on BUDGET...HELP

Hard to give specific without knowing when and where you are flying from as time of year and airfare can have a big effect on how much you have left for food/accommodations. Generally speaking islands you can reach non-stop from your nearest International Gateway Airport will have the least expensive flights.
Lots of AI resorts in the Dominican Republic. Also look at Jamaica, Cancun and Playa del Carmen. Those destinations are noted for an abundance of All Inclusives in the lower budget ranges.
Check airline websites and travel websites like Travelocity, Orbitz, etc for "package deals" to resorts on the above mentioned destinations - you should find quite a few in your price range. Also, many times you'll find ads for package deals in the Travel Section of your Sunday newspaper.

Mexico, Jamaica and the DR have the abundance of AI's in the budget you have listed.
All 3 destinations vary on things to see and do. What type of honeymoon/vacation are you looking for?

If you are looking for an AI in the Dominican Republic then I would recommend the Gran Ventana Hotel. They often offer packages for honeymooners and weddings.
When I was there last year there were two sunset beach weddings and candle lit dinners on the beach.

We need to know your departure airport to be able to suggest places within your budget.
Personally I'd suggest the Mayan Riviera (Caribbean coast of Mexico around Playa del Carmen) over the DR.

breaktime - Review from Eddie Bauer
Great Boots!Color is great and the boots fit well vs. many run small and have narrow calf width. Height is perfect and I wear them with everything. I also bought another pair of Clark boots (different style, color, height) because these were so nice.
TaxLawGal - Review from Eddie Bauer
Extremely ComfyI got these boots at 30% off. Great price for well made extremely comfortable boots. I was going to return these because the boot shaft is slightly too tall for my height 5'3"and slightly too wide at the top for my slender legs just below the knees -- Best if these boots were 3/4" shorter. However, these boots are way too comfortable to return. I own over 5 pairs of comfortable boots (Clarks & Ecco brands). I find these boots to be the most comfortable.
Mary74102 - Review from Eddie Bauer
great bootsI've waited and waited to buy a pair of boots till they fit just right, and these do. I have a super high spot on my foot and they accommodate perfectly. They are so cute and the heel is a perfect height. The leather does mark up quickly, but a quick polish and they are like new. Love them
Hope19 - Review from Eddie Bauer
I bought a size 8 in black. The cushion in the footbed is second to none. I can wear these all day long and my feet don't get tired. They have more cushion and support then my running shoes. The soles and heel have a very nice soft tread making them safe and wearable in the snow.The leather is of really nice quality. I'm 5'6'' and 142lbs and very athletic. Unfortunately, I have 9 inch ankles and 16 inch calves. Therefore, I had to have my boots altered by a boot designer/repairman who had to let the calves out and place a new piece of black leather in the calf area. Now the boots fit perfectly for me. The size 8 is true to size. I will wear them until they fall apart-litteraly!!!It would be nice if Eddie Bauer posted the measurements of the foot, mid-calf and top of boots in the description area. But then again, I would have never purchased the boot and not fallen in love with the cushiony footbed.
longlegged60 - Review from Eddie Bauer
Not for meI thought the boots were very well made, nice trend on sole. I was not to crazy about the two tone on the toe and heel. I kept them for a few days to see if I would grow to love them, but the more I looked at them the more I knew I would not care for them. That does not mean they are a bad product.

I started with a couple recipes I found on here by SAMS_Club and NCMysteryShopper, and added some things of my own. This sauce has a little kick to it, and you really can't taste the extra veggies.

Speaking with style: Stella Bray, Wal-Mart director of ethical sourcing
By Petah Marian | 14 June 2012
Wal-Mart's ethical sourcing director Stella Bray
Wal-Mart's Supplier Development Programme, which helps to improve working conditions and develop socially and environmentally friendly practices in factories the US retail giant sources from, was launched in November 2011. The retailer's director of ethical sourcing, Stella Bray, spoke with Petah Marian about the initiative.
The Supplier Development Programme was created after the world's largest retailer saw an opportunity to "get in front" of common issues faced by its suppliers. These issues, such as under-age labour and health and safety, were repeatedly shown up by audits.
Working with certification and inspection firm Bureau Veritas, a systems management approach has been developed that sees it go into factories, discover their particular weaknesses, and help put systems in place to cover the gaps.
Stella Bray emphasises, however, that the programme looks at each supplier on an individual basis.
"We go in and take this systems management approach, and the philosophy of it, and help to apply it to the supplier's business, so it's not a cookie-cutter type programme, it's something they can sustain for their own business," says Bray.
The scheme covers hiring and employment practices, compensation, effective factory worker communication, health and safety, as well as the environment.
Bray says that hiring and employment practices is one area where the retailer has already been able to help put better systems in place.
"What happens a lot of the time with under-age labour, not child labour, where you have young people who are perhaps a couple of months away from their legal age to work, they might get a fake ID and then start working. That can happen if there's not a process in place to prevent that. So we go through and study gaps like that."
Supplier engagement
Another area where the retailer has been able to offer significant gains is around health and safety, and the implications this can have on productivity.
"What the suppliers are reporting back that they have liked about the programme, is that by getting engaged in their own businesses, they have been finding they have been leaving money on the table through inefficiencies," Bray explains.
"A lot of them have found increases in productivity," she says. Through this, suppliers are experienging better worker retention, and then better quality output as employees become increasingly engaged with what they are doing in the factory.
Suppliers are chosen for the voluntary programme by the group's merchandising and sourcing team. Since the launch, Wal-Mart has seen 106 suppliers graduate the programme, with plans to have 225 complete the scheme this year.
For Wal-Mart, accountability and transparency from factory to supplier and agent is key to its success.
"We wanted to get the suppliers involved so they could get some skin in the game too; this is supplier facing but happens in the factories. So what we're doing is we're engaging everyone in the products that get produced.
"Once you are aware of something you're accountable, and you will do something."
Significant savings
While there are significant savings to be found through a more stable workforce, fewer inefficiencies and better systems, suppliers that have been through the programme also get a "green" rating which means they don't have to pay for a third-party audit on that factory for two years.
However, this doesn't mean that standards can slip. Instead, Bray says that part of the programme means suppliers have to go out and do a self-audit.
"Because we want them to be engaged and to show this is sustained learning as well, the supplier is responsible for going to the factory we've worked on with them, and auditing that factory themselves." The results are turned "over to our team, who then help wherever they may still be struggling."
Bray emphasises that Wal-Mart wants its suppliers to be open and admit to areas where they may have problems, and accept help on any ongoing issues they face.
Wal-Mart's supplier development programme is voluntary, and the retailer doesn't penalise suppliers that won't participate. However, few suppliers would deny there are benefits to becoming closer to the world's largest retailer.
"What it does is make them a better resource, it gives peace of mind, so what we do is make sure we communicate back to merchandising, and back to sourcing, how well the suppliers are doing. Which ones are struggling, which ones are doing well and which ones don't want to participate."

MKTO, compromised of dynamic twosome Malcolm Kelley and Tony Oller , has officially signed with Columbia Records/M2V. The duo, whose name represents the group members' combined initials, released its debut single, "Thank You," today via all digital service providers. The group offers a vibrant mix of pop, hip-hop and R&B, crafted in an undeniably organic way.
Both accomplished adolescent actors, (Oller's credits include Starring in the Disney Series As The Bells Rings as well as the movie Beneath The Darkness, while Kelley had major roles on ABC's hit show LOST as well as in the film Antwone Fisher ), the two first met while filming Gigantic, in 2010. Shortly thereafter they began making music together and caught the attention of powerhouse songwriters Emanuel Kiriakou and Evan Bogart (Beyonce, Rihanna, Ne-Yo, Jason DeRulo). The songwriting pair is now executive producing MKTO's forthcoming debut album.
On January 4th, the band premiered their debut music video for "Thank You" on VEVO which garnered over 500,000 views within the first 48 hours, and nearly 1 million views in its first week. MKTO has been described by Seventeen Magazine as their "new music crush" and Entertainment Tonight has dubbed "Thank You" a "catchy debut single." Celebuzz has declared it "the anthem for the underdogs," but as the band's following continues to grow, these "underdogs" are proving to be the popular ones.

ATHENS: Foreign ministers from across the European Union are gathering in Athens for a two-day informal meeting, with talks on the first day to focus on the situation in Syria and in Ukraine.
Ukraine's fledging government and Western leaders have expressed concern about a buildup of tens of thousands of Russian forces near the Ukrainian border.
Ministers were to meet in Athens early Friday afternoon, and again on Saturday. Greece currently holds the rotating EU presidency.
Earlier this week, EU finance officials said they were working "intensively" on plans to join the International Monetary Fund's planned loan package for Ukraine. The IMF's executive board is expected this month decide on assistance worth up to $18 billion, with the EU considering a further $10 billion.
