Here is what Frank K. had to say along with his 2 key charts: According to the latest figures by the Swiss Customs Administration, the country has exported a total of more than 600 tons of gold to Asia in the first half of this year....
Continue reading the Frank K. piece below...
To hear which company has one of the highest grade gold deposits
in the entire world, as well as a number of other
extraordinary projects click on the logo:
Since the start of this year, the Swiss Customs Administration is obliged to provide more detailed information on international gold and silver trade. Every month they publish an update on the volume of precious metals being exported to and imported from other countries. We documented the gold flow to Asia earlier this month.
In the month of June, a net volume of 55.78 tons of yellow metal went from Switzerland to Asian countries, bringing the total gold exports to Asia for the first half of this year to 603.38 tons of gold. A small amount of gold found it's destination in the Middle-East. Over the first half of this year, the net exports from Switzerland to the Middle East were a modest 6.9 tons.
The regions supplying Switzerland with gold in the first half of 2014 were Europe (395.21 tons), South-America (227.44 tons), North-America (111.33 tons) and Africa (87.9 tons). Central-Asia and Middle-America exported a net volume of 39.6 and 13.65 tons to Switzerland.
The graph below clearly shows the flow of physical gold to Asia. The dark colored bars show the net flow of yellow metal from and to Switzerland in the first five months of the year. The light colored bars represent the volume traded in June. As you can see, the trend continued in the past month.
Gold flows to Asia
The question is, which countries within Asia import so much precious metals from Switzerland. The following graph provides us with the answer. Most exports went to Hong Kong (239.37 tons), India (152 tons), China (88.93 tons) and Singapore (58.31 tons). A lot of the metal sent to Hong Kong is forwarded straight to China, as we know from the export numbers of the Hong Kong Census and Statistics department.
These two charts clearly capture the flow of gold to the rising economic powers in Asia, especially China, India and Singapore."

Switzerland Has Exported A Shocking Amount Of Gold To Asia
With the war in the gold and silver markets heating up, today gold analyst Frank K. out of the Netherlands sent King World News two shocking charts which reveal the massive flow of gold from West to East. The charts show gold is literally hemorrhaging from Western central bank vaults to Eastern vaults, where it will never return.

Ms. Butterbeans' is an after school program and cooking school for kids ages 7-17 in Marin County, California. The school is focused on important life skills such as gardening, cooking and social skills. We also offer private classes & parties and open classes at Whole Foods Markets in Napa and Sacramento.
Ramekins offers cooking classes from award-winning chefs in a beautiful, European-style villa in the heart of wine country. During each three-hour cooking class, up to 12 fledgling gourmands prepare and eat a multicourse meal under the careful tutelage of a crack team of expert chefs using essential culinary techniques, such as meat seasoning, soup simmering, and chopping thrown tomatoes cleanly in twain.
At In The Kitchen (ITK) Culinary, down-to-earth restaurant chefs introduce cooks of all ages and skill levels to new techniques and cuisine. They offer a wide variety of classes, teaching everything from gourmet sauce making to cupcake decorating to knife skills. Chef Scott Davis, whom youngsters affectionately call The Culinary Dude, has degrees in both culinary arts and early-childhood education, and he created the kids' cooking program for Whole Foods. He teaches kids aged 4–14 how to follow recipes, safely cut and peel vegetables, or roll and bake patty-cakes.
Students learn how to create meals in an elegant kitchen with a flat-panel TV with surround sound, a subzero fridge and freezer, two six-burner Wolf cooktops, and two Wolf double ovens. Clients can rent out this space for private parties or private cooking classes.
When pursuing a culinary degree at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris isn't going to fit into your schedule, there's Sour Flour, a school dedicated solely to the preparation of one of San Francisco's most iconic foods: sourdough. Held in the Mission at La Victoria Bakery, its workshops draw aspiring home bakers fascinated by the serendipitous product of the Bay Area's ambient yeasts. Of course, Sour Flour breads also pop up in baskets at dozens of S.F. restaurants, and can be bought at most markets. But there's nothing more fulfilling than learning to bake your own delicious flatbread, then taking a starter home as a nucleus for loaves of chewy sourdough and excellent pizzas, indefinitely.
CityVoters nominated Apron Strings for Best Cooking Classes in the 2010 Best of the Bay List. Nickelodeon Parents Connect featured Apron Strings, and five Yelpers give it a five-star average.
Parties That Cook® stages hands on cooking parties for corporate team building and private events in the San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, Chicago and Portland.

The National Center for Telehealth and Technology has introduced a line of mobile apps focusing on mind-body strategies to help improve mood, PTSD symptoms, and induce relaxation. Currently, most of the applications are available at the iPhone app store and Android Market. Below is a list of a few that are currently available. For more details, visit the MT Stress Control Tools.
Many who suffer from a lot of stress also have high blood pressure and do not exercise. People who practice some form of activity or exercise benefit from less stress associated with personal, family, and work situations. Reducing stress will improve your health. Exercise helps improve your stress tolerance and also can strengthen your cardiovascular system, increase endorphin levels, and keep you mentally focused. Bike rides, power walking, and yoga are some of the many inexpensive, time-efficient ways to improve your general fitness and reduce stress. The Mayo Clinic has more good advice on how and why to reduce stress.
Distractions are a great way to help reduce stress, as they allow a child or teen to take his or her mind off of deployment—to a point. A great idea for parents is to provide plenty of opportunities for social activities (i.e., sports, clubs, etc.). Many of the sources of stress from a deployment have no ready solution, so distractions can be helpful. Providing events that families can partake in together (i.e., bowling, arts and crafts, etc.) are a great way to bring families together. Research shows that the most common forms of adolescent distractions are reading, drawing, playing computer games, listening to music, and playing with pets.
During deployment, the parent at home plays a pivotal role in providing support for their children. Recognizing signs of deployment-related stress allows you to intervene and prevent future concerns. In young children, signs include unexplained crying, sleep difficulties, eating difficulties, and fear of new people or situations. In adolescents, signs include acting out, misdirected anger, and loss of interest in hobbies. For more signs of distress, read this Military.com article.
Follow these tips to help your child cope with a parent's deployment:
1) Increase your knowledge/awareness of deployment-related issues.
- Understand the various ways in which a family is affected by deployment.
- Understand the stages of the deployment cycle.
- Find ways to improve public awareness of the need for support within communities.
2) Increase your knowledge of and vigilance for depression and stress symptoms:
- Learn to recognize signs and symptoms of depression and other mental health concerns.
- Understand common emotional phases in children and teenagers during times of deployment.
3) Increase opportunities for connection and support:
- Show concern for your child. Many teens will refuse to express their concern over a deployment but will often respond to concern shown for them.
- Help kids form networks with peers who have gone through or are going through a parent's deployment.
- Provide opportunities for activities to keep children distracted.
For more information and resources on how to support children and teens during deployment, visit the HPRC's family skills section.
During times of deployment, children and teenagers often look for support from the people in their lives—family, teachers, and friends—to help them deal with the stress of having a parent deployed. A good support system helps by listening, understanding, and providing comfort. Children often will respond to those who show concern for them and to those who understand life in the military. Provide support by listening to what your child has to say and by helping them understand their situation.
A new DoD-sponsored report titled Promoting Psychological Resilience in the U.S. Military has been released by RAND Corporation and is available in full-text print and downloadable pdf formats. The RAND National Defense Research Institute (RAND NDRI) conducted a focused literature review to identify individual, family, unit and community-level factors for promoting psychological resilience. The study also included a review of resilience programs.
The full report can be downloaded from the RAND website.
Since the beginning of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, approximately two million U.S. troops have deployed. The operational tempo associated with these conflicts has led to longer and more frequent deployments with fewer rest periods in between. The inevitable stress is a challenge for military and civilian communities, even as families work hard to reintegrate their families and normal routines.
In response to these ongoing demands, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff directed the development of the Total Force Fitness (TFF) initiative, a new Department of Defense model that focuses on the health, readiness, and performance of our Warfighters. (See the Total Force Fitness section of HPRC's website for more information on this initiative.)
Following this initiative, a team of Joint-Service and DoD experts lead by COL Bowles of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS) came together to create a model that promotes family fitness, resilience, and optimal well-being for service members and their families. This model, which is still in development, is called The Military Family Fitness Model (MFFM).
The MFFM first examines stress-inducing demands placed on military and civilian families from sudden deployment and the return home. Then, looking to build on the resilience of the family, MFFM provides guidelines, skills, and resources for the individual, family, and community to protect against the negative effects of stress. As sources of stress increase, certain behaviors indicate the need for more support (e.g., family strife, children acting out, job instability for non-service members, family role conflict, non-supportive relationships outside the family, and/or domestic violence). With MFFM, families have individual, family, and community resources for additional support. The aim of the model is to foster a multi-level approach that strengthens family resilience and, as a result, Warfighter resilience.
Individual approaches to addressing stress include breathing exercises, yoga, mindfulness exercises, and cognitive restructuring. Family strategies include developing and maintaining strong communication skills, shared family routines, and the building of support networks. The bottom line of the MFFM is that at any point along the model, individuals, families, and communities can strengthen resilience resources to promote total family resilience and fitness.
Members of the MFFM team presented the Military Family Fitness Model at the USDA/DoD Family Resilience conference at the end of April. We encourage you to get more information on the conference presentation, read the abstract, and see the PowerPoint slides presented.
DCoE's (Defense Centers of Excellence) report [PDF] on the Family Conference can be read here.
The Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury (Resilience and Prevention Directorate), Uniformed Services University, and the Human Performance Resource Center ran a three-hour workshop introducing the Military Family Fitness Model at the DoD/USDA Family Resilience Conference last week (April 26-29) in Chicago, IL. The workshop focused on describing the newly developed process-oriented, multi-level model for total military family fitness, including how service members and their families, leaders, policy makers, and program managers can achieve and maintain family fitness (following the Total Force Fitness paradigm). Key aspects of the model were also described, such as family stressors, strengths, resources, and outcomes.
Deep breathing, guided imagery, mindfulness, and cognitive restructuring were taught as practical skills that can help control family members' stress. Guidelines were also given for family communication and problem-solving skills designed to enhance family functioning and resilience. A military case study was presented to allow participants to practice the application of the Total Family Fitness model.

Being in stressful situations activates the body's physiologic stress response, which is what allows Warfighters the ability to respond to any threat at any time. In the sports world, the stress response is associated with the adrenaline rush that pumps athletes up during competitions, and gives them the edge to win.
Unlike athletes, however, Warfighters are a select group who operate in stressful situations day in and day out. Prolonged exposure to stressful situations has been found to be harmful both physically and psychologically, unless one learns how to successfully manage one's internal response. To that end, there are programs throughout the uniformed services that teach Warfighters combat stress management techniques. Many use a stoplight system—utlizing the colors green, yellow, and red—to teach Warfighters how to calm the stress response and bring the body back into balance, in order to give it a reprieve. Successful warfighters learn these skills and apply them in theater.
These same skills, which allow one to calm the body's physiologic response to stress, can also be applied to other areas—most notably, in one's relationships. The stress response triggered by external threats is the same stress response that is activated during emotionally-charged conflicts with someone you care about (although the degree of stress is different). Conflict between two people creates the same internal stress, coupled with a flood of negative emotions. The techniques learned to manage combat stress are techniques that can also help Warfighters in their personal relationships.
A recent study examined 149 couples in a 15-minute discussion about a marital conflict found that positive emotions helped couples regulate, or calm, their physiologic responses after the conversation. Interestingly, how happy the individual was with their relationship did not impact this finding. This indicates that positive emotions seem to have the ability to "undo" the physiologic arousal of conflict.
The next time you get in a fight with someone you care about, try this: stop, take yourself out of the situation, and start thinking positive thoughts—either about yourself, something else, or your partner. Notice whether you feel calmer, if your body temperature decreased, if your heart rate slowed down, and if your body moved less (we tend to move more when we are upset). You might find this to be an excellent addition not only to your combat stress strategies, but also to your positive relationship strategies.

It's amazing what $2 will sometimes get you at Evangeline Downs. Last night some players got a whole lot for their longshot wager.
The 4th annual 'Horses and Harmony' will be held at Evangeline Downs on Tuesday, July 29th, and will honor two time Grammy Award winner Terrance Simien!

The annual D.S. "Shine" Young Futurity means big money and full fields for Saturday night at Acadiana's hometown racetrack.
It's true long shots don't hit the board like this all the time, hence the name but when they do you can always count on one lucky son of a gun holding a winning ticket because he bet on a name
This Saturday night Evangeline Downs delivers another big money night of racing with the Inaugural Turf Sprint and four other stakes races with purses set for at least $100-Thousand Dollars.
It's Acadiana's richest night of racing with over $800 thousand dollars in total purses up for grabs Saturday at Evangeline Downs.

It wasn't another triple dead heat but it was pretty spectacular. Another interesting night at Evangeline Downs has racing fans talking.
What happened at Evangeline Downs last night has never happened before and we've got the picture to prove it.

8mm Green/Aqua Picasso Baroque Faceted Beads [25]
Important: Only the green/aqua beads are available under this number. The purple beads are now available under the number F612, and the pink/topaz beads are available under the number F613. The orange/yellow beads are out of stock, and the mixed beads are also gone.
Style: F525
Beads per lot: 25
Cost per bead: 18 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 8mm beads with a molded swirl pattern around the holes, and facets around the middle of each bead.
Colors/description: A mixture of opaque colors, most swirled with white glass, and all with picasso coatings on the unfaceted portions around the holes: green, blue, aqua, purple/lavender, coral pink, red, red/orange, and possibly other colors.
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: I haven't noticed any significant defects. However, fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.
How photographed: At the window in natural daylight.
Comments: These beads are from one of my most expensive suppliers, and even at a sale price they were very expensive. Thus, my high price. I am calling them "baroque" for lack of a better word. The supplier calls them "thru-cut baroque", but I don't know what that means. Basically, a baroque bead is any bead with an uneven shape that doesn't look like a nugget. Baroque beads, in my opinion, are a little fancier than nuggets, although I have seen the word applied to nuggets.

November 26, 2014
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- Kyle Lohse had a solid debut three days after signing a $33 million, three-year contract with the Milwaukee Brewers, pitching into the fourth inning of a 6-2 victory over the Colorado Rockies on Thursday.
Lohse gave up two first-inning hits, including a run-scoring double by Carlos Gonzalez, but settled down after that. He also gave up doubles to Todd Helton to lead off the second and Dexter Fowler to lead off the third. He did not walk a batter and struck out two. Overall he gave up a run and four hits in 3 2-3 innings.
Infielder Yuniesky Betancourt made a triumphant return to the Brewers after playing with Kansas City in 2012 and being in the Philadelphia Phillies' camp earlier this spring. He had three hits, including a home run and a double.

I feel for Jordan but the bottom line is in spite of 20-6-5, we won 3 games that month. Scoring 20 isn't bad, but being the high scorer in the utter annihilation against Detroit and losing all but 3 games isn't really much to be proud of.
If Jordan could put up those numbers without bringing the offense to a grinding halt (and play legitimate defense), the Wiz would be better than most teams in the east in my opinion. On paper he seems like the prototypical instant-offense first guard off the bench-type player, but when you watch him in game he really runs the team play into the ground. Is the answer just to indefinitely bench his Steez though? Hard to say. We could have used someone who wouldn't just hand the ball over last night against Toronto

High Quality Baking Chocolate
Any suggestions where to source high end baking chocolate? (Valrhona or equivalent) Can be retail or wholesale. Ideally the source would be located in the Burlington vicinity but will gladly take suggestions for Toronto and points in between.
re: chocabot
Last time I was there, it was actually Callebaut blocks, but they are definitely who I thought of as well. They also have Lindt discs, which I've found unexpectedly good (I've only tried the dark ones).
Bernard Callebaut in Oakville sells 2.5kg baking bars in white, milk, semisweet and bittersweet. They retail for $60 or so. Unfortunately, it's one big slab, so you have a lot of chiselling ahead. They also have smaller 454 g bars.
If you don't mind mail order, chocolat-chocolat in Quebec sells Cacao Barry and Callebaut chocolates (some single origin too) in 1 kg and 2.5 kg bags in wafers/pellets.
I've been trying to figure out how to order from Qzina, a large Canadian importer/distributor of chocolate and other pastry ingredients. They cater to wholesale rather than retail.

re: Royaljelly
Please don't buy any chocolate from Bulk barn, that's a totally different class of chocolate and will not taste good at all. Callebaut has different classes, just don't buy chocolate from Bulk Barn.
re: Kagemusha
I second that suggestion. The quality is great for the price. When I took courses at George Brown, my instructor even recommended the PC brand saying it was "good value for your money"
Most health food stores have a good chocolate selection as well. Perhaps you have a few to choose from in Burlington?
re: Otonabee
"Serious"? Over-priced, over-rated and amazingly poor value IMHO doesn't qualify Soma as a source for baking chocolate.
re: Kagemusha
I've not been impressed with PC nor Soma's chocolate.
Whole foods has good baking chocolate.
re: Kagemusha
FIrst off, this is not a Soma home brand, this is one of the various companies that they bring in. I think in terms of cost it is about $25 or so. It is one of the single source bars. The label says ChocoVic which I gather is a Spanish company from Barcelona.
On a personal level, I have used a bunch of different kinds and I find that this specific make, while not overly sweet, brings some interesting flavours to the mix.

"Pitch Perfect" is aca-awesome
There's something that warms my heart about a capella groups (most likely stemming from my past high school chorus life and utter obsession with Naya Rivera's lips) and makes me such a sucker for shows like Glee and The Sing-off. Combine them with a hackneyed rom-com plot, gut-busting laughter over Rebel Wilson's uncanny ability to make me pee my panties, and a potential lesbionic shower scene between Anna Kendrick and Brittany Snow — I'm sold, sister.
Let's get Pitch Perfect. Beca (Anna Kendrick) is a tortured, aspiring DJ who is forced to go to the college where her dad works instead of to L.A. to pursue her dreams of facilitating rump shaking and drunken one night stands with her dope beats. Dad coaxes her into staying in college by offering to help her get to L.A. after one academic year. He encourages her to get involved in extracurricular activities on campus and, while she's touring the activities fair, The Bellas a capella group tries to convince her to join because they need members. But Beca's too cool for that kind of music because her remixes are rad and blah blah blah. *Insert almost sexy shower scene.*
After turning down The Bellas, led by the iron fist Aubrey (Anna Camp), Beca finds herself singing "Bulletproof" as she sashays into the co-ed showers. Suddenly, a gingered-out Chloe (Brittany Snow) appears in Beca's shower — naked and wet — claiming Beca can sing and that she should audition for The Bellas. Though there's no nudity and nothing terribly lesbian about this scene — except when they're naked bodies are almost pressed against each other in an enthralling moment of steamy song — it burned in my loins and, for that, I thank you Chloe. Next thing you know, Beca joins The Bellas along with a hodgepodge of weirdos including Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) and a no-shame-in-spitting-game lesbian named Cynthia Rose (Ester Dean) and the aca-awesome a capella madness begins.
There's a precious, gag-inducing romance between Beca and Jesse (Skylar Astin) from the all-male a capella group on campus (The Treblemakers) that makes its way into the storyline. It plays out just as you'd imagine any rom-com would, but their hetero love tale paled in comparison to the hilarity of Rebel Wilson's character. She had me in stitches just as much as Bridesmaids. Let's take a moment and quote her completely out of context.
Aubrey: What's your name?
Fat Amy: Fat Amy.
Aubrey: You call yourself Fat Amy?
Fat Amy: Yeah, so twig bitches like you don't do it behind my back.
Bumper [Adam DeVine]: I get the feeling that we should kiss. I mean, is that a good feeling or, like, a wrong feeling?
Fat Amy: Wellll, sometimes I feel like I could do crystal meth but then I think, hmm, better not.
Aubrey: What are you doing?
Fat Amy: Horizontal running…
Fat Amy: Aca-awkward.
OK, so back to the plot. Beca takes her sick remixing skills (against Aubrey's bitchy will) and gives The Bellas a vocal renovation that leads them to a gigantic a capella competition where they compete against the Treblemakers for first place. In a climactic moment of instrument-free pop tunes, beat boxing and potential projectile vomiting ( SPOILER ALERT), the movie ends exactly as you'd imagine minus the homo scenes we fantasized about. There's a brief moment in which Cynthia Rose outs herself, to which Fat Amy replies, "Whomp, there it is!" But, unfortunately, it didn't get gayer than that. I mean have you seen what actually happens on chorus trips? Everyone gets gay.
I digress.
Pitch Perfect was everything I had imagined and left me wanting for absolutely nothing. I was 100% satisfied while leaving the theatre, thinking of all the great parties at which I would quote Fat Amy, and I couldn't stop singing Blackstreet's "No Diggity." Both wins. Take your girlfriends and queens to see this flick after a few wine spritzers. Bring a change of underpants for the hilarity and your most creative imagination for the not-so-gay scenes.


text: Texas's Wendy Davis: Restricting Abortion 'Demonizing Women' Print article Send a Tip by Warner Todd Huston 30 Jun 2013 post a comment Texas State Senator Wendy Davis made a name for herself at the end of June by launching a filibuster on the floor of the state senate to stop new regulations on abortion. Now she is warning Governor Rick Perry to "stop demonizing women" by pursuing such restrictions. The bill Perry supports would place new requirements of cleanliness and safety on Texas abortion clinics, rules that opponents of the bill say would shut down many abortionists. This, Davis claims, is "demonizing women." On CNN with Wolf Blitzer, Sen. Davis addressed Perry directly. "Gov. Perry… let's stop demonizing women who face very difficult choices in their life. Let's make sure that we don't close down 37 of the 42 clinics in Texas and leave women with nowhere to go and put them in a situation where their health will be at risk," she said. With this, Davis characterizes a pro-life position simply as a way to "demonize women," as opposed to a principled desire to protect life. Senator Davis intends this filibuster incident to be the first step in a campaign for higher office. After demurring to say so directly in other venues, on June 28 Davis told MSNBC's Chris Hayes, "I would be lying if I told you I hadn't had the aspirations to run for a state-wide office."

November 28, 2014
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A state Senate committee is set to hold a public hearing on a bill to combat heroin use.
The measure would require the Department of Corrections to set up a formal system of quick sanctions short of prison for offenders who violate their parole or probation. The measure's author, Republican Rep. John Nygren, says faster sanctions would help heroin addicts get treatment quicker.
The Assembly passed the bill on a voice vote in February. The Senate's public safety committee has scheduled a public hearing and a vote on the measure for Wednesday morning.
Approval would clear the way for a vote in the full Senate on April 1, the last day the chamber is scheduled to convene before the two-year legislative session ends.

WASHINGTON – General Motors chief executive Mary Barra got the royal treatment when she visited Washington in January: a mention in the State of the Union address, a seat in the first lady's box and a warm welcome from lawmakers in both parties.
But the mood will be markedly different this week, when Barra is to face questioning from two congressional panels about GM's handling of a defective ignition switch that has been linked to 13 deaths.
The high-profile appearances – before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on Tuesday and a Senate panel on Wednesday – will be a key test of Barra's leadership of GM, where she started working when she was 18 and this year became the first female chief executive of a major automaker.
But the hearings will also highlight GM's relationship with Washington, which came to its rescue with a nearly $50 billion federal bailout five years ago, prompting some critics to dub it Government Motors.
With 117 facilities spread across 75 congressional districts and a robust lobbying budget, GM has strong ties on Capitol Hill. And while its most forceful advocate, Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., has announced his retirement after six decades in office, he is expected to be succeeded by his wife, Debbie, who worked at GM for about 30 years.
As a big employer that the government made a big bet on, GM starts off in a position where institutional Washington has to be rooting for it to come through, said Larry Kamer, a public affairs strategist who worked in the past for GM and Toyota.
GM faces damage to its brand at a critical time, as well as the possibility of private lawsuits and civil fines.
In addition, a federal investigation into the company is being carried out by the same team that built a case against Toyota, which this month agreed to a record $1.2 billion settlement to end a criminal probe into its handling of safety problems.
GM has been in the spotlight before, most recently during the 2012 presidential campaign, when Democrats celebrated the jobs that the federal bailout had saved and Republicans criticized what they said was a bad deal for taxpayers.
After Vice President Joe Biden's campaign-trail boast that Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive, the company tried to take a low profile, putting its plants off-limits to candidates from both parties.
For now, the White House appears to be keeping its distance from the problems at GM, and members of Congress have vowed a thorough investigation of how the company and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration handled the situation. A key question is whether GM failed to follow federal law when it delayed telling regulators about the ignition switch blamed in the fatal accidents.
Barra has probably been preparing for her first appearance at a congressional hearing with practice sessions and background files on committee members.
When she walks into that room, it cannot feel like the first time that she's answering those questions, Kamer said.
People who know Barra say she isn't an electrifying orator, but they expect her to speak her mind.
What she will say is what she believes and what she knows, said David Cole, an expert in Detroit on the auto industry, noting her background as an engineer. If she doesn't know something, she will say it. She's not going to blow smoke.
Barra previewed her approach to the hearings in a March 18 meeting with reporters in Detroit.
My message will be that we are focused on the customer, we are doing everything we can to support the customer, to get their vehicles fixed, that I am very sorry for the loss of life that has occurred and we will take every step we can to make sure this never happens again, she said.
GM has learned one important lesson. The chief executives of the Big Three automakers drew jeers in 2008 when they flew to Washington on corporate jets to ask for a $25 billion loan package. Barra will travel on a commercial flight, GM spokesman Greg Martin said.
Joan Claybrook, a former NHTSA chief and former president of Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy group, expects tough questioning of NHTSA's acting administrator, David Friedman, over the regulator's failure to open its own investigation.
Questions about the way the bailout allowed GM to escape liability for crashes that occurred before the deal was finalized, in July 2009, are also likely, Claybrook and other industry analysts said.
Despite GM's many political ties, some observers say greater transparency and an increased sense of vulnerability among elected officials may be changing the way politicians treat their home-town industries.
There was a time when politically solid entities were viewed as being in better shape because of their political relationships, said Alex Vogel, a Republican lobbyist. I don't think that holds anymore.
If General Motors does wrong, Joe Biden isn't going to pull his punches, Vogel said. The Michigan delegation is a huge advocate for the industry. But when the industry does wrong, they're not going to find a lot of protection from these guys.
In an emailed statement, Fred Upton, R-Mich, said, The auto industry is important to Michigan, but auto safety is important to everyone. Automobile safety is a life-or-death issue, and my priority is keeping drivers safe behind the wheel.
The industry still has its fans. Last week, Sens. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Carl Levin, D-Mich., launched the Senate Auto Caucus, a bipartisan effort to boost the industry's standing.
But in the coming days, the company will mostly need to rely on itself. As Kamer put it, We're really at the phase now where GM has to stand on its own two feet.
