The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.
BBC Monitoring Alert - AFGHANISTAN
Released on 2012-10-18 17:00 GMT
|2010-07-14 12:35:05
The following is a summary of Afghan press commentaries available to BBC
Monitoring between 8-14 July 2010:
International policy
The papers mull over the security situation in Afghanistan in the wake
of talk about a withdrawal of foreign forces, reconciliation with the
Taleban and new US military strategies. The overwhelming view is one of
pessimism and fears that Afghanistan will revert to civil war.
Independent Cheragh takes a grim view of the current situation in
Afghanistan and the performance of the foreign forces there:
"The people are completely fed up with the performance of the government
and foreign forces on resolving the complicated problems of the country.
Afghanistan is gradually heading towards repeating the bitter and dark
experiences of war, ethnic conflict and crisis of national trust the
Karzai administration lacks the authority to exercise sovereignty in
large parts of Afghanistan."
It also sees the loss of political and foreign support for President
Karzai and the consequences of this leading to a defeat for the foreign
"As a result of his failed policies, Mr Karzai is losing both his
domestic and foreign political supporters and is heading towards
complete isolation."
"Naturally, the emergence of splinter groups, divisions, the national
crisis of trust, the transformation of the government into a small
ethno-centric government, widespread corruption and other factors will
gradually pave the way for the defeat of foreign forces in the country."
As a consequence, it sees terror finally winning out in Afghanistan:
"Foreign forces will then have to leave Afghanistan without any
achievements and without bringing the war on terrorism in Afghanistan to
a successful close, leaving Afghanistan alone, as in the 90s. The
terrorists will then be victorious." (Cheragh, Kabul, in Dari 8 Jul 10)
Private Arman-e Melli also sees a victory for the insurgency and says
the international community has to take a tough military stance against
the Taleban to prevent this from happening:
"There is no other way but to fight militarily with and crush those
Taleban who refuse to accept the constitution of Afghanistan, and reject
calls for peace, which emphasize war, bloodshed and the destruction of
the country. If the Taleban are weakened and if their supporters
conclude that it is extremely difficult or impossible for their servants
in Afghanistan to win, the terrorists will choose to negotiate."
The alternative is losing Afghanistan to the Taleban and Al-Qa'idah, the
paper says:
"We believe that if the international forces rid themselves of the
burden of war in Afghanistan and disregard the realities of the war, the
Taleban and Al-Qa'idah will recapture not only Afghanistan but also the
region and we will once again enter a vicious circle." (Arman-e Melli,
Kabul, in Dari 6 Jul 10)
Independent Hasht-e Sobh doubts the wisdom of talking about a US troop
withdrawal next year and says this equates to abandoning Afghanistan to
the Taleban and its neighbouring countries:
"Obama's announcement of his unilateral decision to withdraw American
troops from Afghanistan next year has provoked serious reactions, not
only in Afghanistan but also in the United States. These reactions show
the general uncertainty about whether this decision is timely and
appropriate. Without any consideration of realities and military,
political, economic and social resources and preparedness, this decision
has no other meaning but to leave the people of Afghanistan alone in an
unequal war against a movement that enjoys the full support of a number
of regional countries."
The paper also sees talk of a withdrawal as a boost for the Taleban:
"There is no doubt that the Taleban interpret this decision as their
victory and can use it as an effective propaganda tool to recruit more
Hasht-e Sobh warns the USA that the consequence might be terror attacks
within its own borders:
"There is no doubt that if the USA withdraws from Afghanistan without
ensuring durable peace, it will have to strengthen its defences against
terrorism on its own borders. One of the consequences of this premature
withdrawal will be violation by the government of Afghanistan - for its
survival - of all the values enshrined in the constitution and a hasty
reconciliation deal with the opposition." (Hasht-e Sobh, Kabul, in Dari
6 Jul 10)
Pro-government Weesa sees limited opportunities for the international
community to avoid a disastrous defeat in Afghanistan:
"The international community has missed many opportunities and its
enemies have been reorganized, strengthened and equipped with arms from
the region. Moreover, those nations of the world whose troops are based
in Afghanistan are against the Afghan war and the international
community's mission. This shows that the international forces and senior
Afghan officials do not have many opportunities in Afghanistan."
It urges the international community to heed the demands of the Afghan
"Both sides have limited opportunities to avoid a historic defeat and
humiliation. The only option they have is to pay serious attention to
the demands and priorities of the Afghan people in war and peace in the
future." (Weesa, Kabul, in Pashto 7 Jul 10)
State-funded Etefaq-e Eslam, published in western Herat Province, doubts
the Afghan army will be strong enough to ensure security after a foreign
forces' withdrawal:
"The fear that the national army may not be able to put up resistance to
anti-government elements remains a big concern. Despite the presence of
hundreds of foreign forces, still the government's opponents continue
their attacks, and there is no doubt that in the absence of foreign
forces, the anti-government resistance will increase and become
uncontrollable." (Etefaq-e Eslam, Herat, in Dari 8 Jul 10)
Pakistani interior minister's terror claims
Afghan newspapers react angrily to remarks by Pakistan's Interior
Minister Rehman Malik, who said that Afghanistan and NATO needed to do
more to prevent Taleban militants crossing the border into Pakistan. He
blamed militants crossing from Afghanistan for a deadly attack in
northwestern Pakistan on 9 July.
Cheragh is incensed by Malik's remarks that the Afghan Taleban were
responsible for the recent terror attack in Pakistan, while denying
armed Taleban come from Pakistan to Afghanistan to fight the coalition
"According to media reports, the Pakistani interior minister, Rehman
Malik, in a contradictory interview with the BBC, held the Afghan
Taleban responsible for the latest terrorist attack in Pakistan and
accused the NATO forces of negligence and deficiency in preventing the
Afghan Taleban from entering Pakistan, but denied that the armed Taleban
were entering Afghanistan from Pakistan to fight the coalition forces."
The paper also criticizes the timing of these remarks:
"This wicked remark is made at a time when President Hamed Karzai in
Kabul announces his full readiness to obtain Islamabad's consent in the
reconciliation process even at the cost of facing the discontent of the
Afghan people by giving a unilateral privilege [to Pakistan and the
The paper recommends that the Afghan government should reduce Pakistan's
role in the Afghan peace process as the country only understands force:
"If the [Afghan] government wants a peace that benefits the country, it
should reduce Pakistan's role in the Afghan peace process. Pakistan only
understands the language of force, so Afghanistan should ease its
differences with the world community and, with the help of its people,
make Islamabad support Afghan peace talks with the Taleban." (Cheragh,
Kabul, in Dari 13 Jul 10)
Hasht-e Sobh sees the minister's remarks as a new tactic by Pakistan. It
says the remarks also confirm the country's continuing interference in
Afghan affairs:
"Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik has held the extremists (the
Taleban), who enter Pakistan from Afghanistan, responsible for the
violent operations that took place last week in the Mohmand area and
killed more than 100 people.
"Rehman Malik claimed that the number of individuals entering
Afghanistan from Pakistan to fight against the Afghan government (Not
against the foreign troops in Afghanistan) is less than the number of
individuals and forces entering Pakistan from Afghanistan..."
"The statements by the Pakistani interior minister demonstrate that
Pakistan has not stopped its policy of interference in Afghanistan..."
(Hasht-e Sobh, Kabul, in Dari 13 Jul 10)
Private Mandegar says the world is not fooled by Malik's remarks and is
aware of Pakistan's backing for the Taleban in Afghanistan:
"He accused NATO forces of not taking enough measures to prevent
Afghanistan's insurgent Taleban from entering Pakistan... The Afghan
government and a number of domestic and foreign experts believe that the
Taleban are entering Afghanistan from Pakistan...
"Pakistan wants to hide its weakness in the war on terror and denies its
support for the Taleban, but it is too late and the world knows that the
Taleban are an intelligence body of Pakistan..." (Mandegar, Kabul and
Mazar-e Sharif, in Dari 13 Jul 10)
Tribal militias
The press is highly critical of the US idea of arming local groups to
fight the Taleban.
Hasht-e Sobh says this plan has been tried before and failed:
"This plan was previously implemented by the Communist People's Party
(Khalq) and later by the mojahedin government on a larger scale.
However, it not only intensified interethnic enmity and unhealthy
regional rivalries in Afghanistan but also imposed different warlords on
the people and prevented the writ of the state from extending throughout
the country."
The paper says the plan may lead to civil war, as had been the
experience in the past:
"This will trigger a repetition of regional and street-to-street wars of
the 1370s [1990s] waged by those who were supported and even guided
under the banner of self-defence forces and who formed the backbone of
the civil war." (Hasht-e Sobh, Kabul, Mazar-e Sharif, Herat and
Jalalabad in Dari 11 Jul 10)
Likewise, private Daily Afghanistan thinks forming tribal militas will
destabilize the country:
"The plan shows that [NATO chief in Afghanistan] Gen Petraeus is still
ignorant of the structure of cultures and traditions of Afghanistan.
This is because the plan for forming tribal militias is one of the
bloodiest experiences, which the Afghan people have left behind with
lots of difficulties; a scheme which included national discord and
created huge gaps between people and tribes. The point is that
Afghanistan will face the kind of national discord and tensions among
people it experienced in the past 30 years."
"Forming tribal militias will further aggravate the security situation,"
the paper concludes. (Daily Afghanistan, Kabul, in Dari and Pashto 11
Jul 10)
Arman-e Melli thinks the plan to set up tribal militias will backfire
and sees militia recruits eventually joining the Taleban when the cash
dries up:
"Some experts also believe that the plan to arm local people to counter
terrorists, which will be implemented more in insecure regions, will not
prove effective. This is because militias support this plan of the
Americans for financial incentives and in order to obtain money and
weapons, and when the money does not reach them, they will likely join
the terrorists along with their weapons, and in that time, Al-Qa'idah
and the Taleban will occupy the entire country and the dark history will
be repeated."
The paper believes a better alternative is to recruit former mojahedin
to fight the Taleban:
"This is because there are thousands of mojahedin and officers with
combat experience who are now tired of unemployment. They have the real
motive to fight terrorists.
"If the Americans use such forces against terrorists, the problem of
militias will not occur nor will the Afghan people, who are seeing
terrorists as their enemies, oppose this plan." (Arman-e Melli, Kabul,
in Dari 12 Jul 10)
Weesa sees the USA acting in its own interests and not considering the
suitability of the plan for Afghanistan:
"If we call the war strategy of Gen Petraeus in Iraq successful, will it
be successfully executed in Afghanistan as well? Do the people of Iraq
and Afghanistan have the same values, problems and disputes? Can the
same policy work in Afghanistan?"
"America's biggest problem is that it pursues only its own interests and
objectives in Iraq, Afghanistan or any other country."
The paper says President Karzai's objection to the tribal militia idea
is not personal but characterizes the differences between Afghan and US
"Most of the time its [the USA's] objective is to destroy the pride,
national sovereignty, national unity and history of another country and
no independent and patriotic person can accept this. Karzai's problem
with Gen Petraeus is not personal. This is a confrontation between
Afghan and American strategic objectives and goals. If America does not
want to suffer the fate of the former Soviet Union and British Empire in
Afghanistan, it should recognize Afghanistan as an independent and proud
nation." (Weesa, Kabul, in Pashto 11 Jul 10)
Partition proposal
State-run and pro-government papers express anger and wholeheartedly
reject a proposal by the former US ambassador to India, Robert
Blackwill, to partition Afghanistan, leaving the south to the Taleban.
The private and independent papers are not observed to have commented on
the issue.
State-run Hewad says the former US envoy's proposal is based on
"Robert Blackwill said in his article that the best alternative to
America's strategic defeat is to divide Afghanistan...
"However, if we read the article thoroughly, we will see that Robert
Blackwill has no knowledge of the situation on the ground. He is not
familiar with the facts about Afghanistan and the region."
"Blackwill does not know that the problem is not between the south and
north that he wants to divide. Afghanistan is a victim of terrorism that
has been imposed on Afghans from abroad."
The paper dismisses the envoy's plan and urges all Afghans to unite in
their country's interests:
"Mr Robert Blackwill should not dream of dividing Afghanistan. The plan
for division of Afghanistan is merely a fiction. We call on the entire
proud nation, including insurgents, to unite for the sake of supreme
national interests and put an end to the current crisis." (Hewad, Kabul,
in Pashto 10 Jul 10)
Weesa warns other countries against thinking they can use Afghanistan
for their own goals:
"Afghanistan is not a piece of land that has no owner and that America
or any other country can willingly divide into many parts or use it for
its personal objectives. The Soviet Union is a clear example of this. It
failed in its conspiracy to get the fraternal ethnic groups embroiled
into fighting with tribal militias and this is a lesson to every other
Blackwill's comments are an insult, the paper adds:
"This American has seriously insulted all of us, especially Tajik, Uzbek
and Hazara brothers, by saying that they will cooperate with America in
dividing their country."
"If America truly wants to avoid a strategic defeat in Afghanistan, its
only way is to ignore such futile proposals and regard Afghans as an
independent and proud nation and respect their opinions, values and
national sovereignty." (Weesa, Kabul, in Pashto 10 Jul 10)

ARDMORE, OK--Today is the first official day of summer and with temperatures rising your energy bill probably will too.
OG&E Energy corporation said you can take control of you summer electricity bills by using energy during off peak hours when it costs less. They said peak hours are from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays and it costs more to generate and use electricity during that time because of customer demand.
Coordinator Mary Ann Rutledge said if you do things that require electricity like laundry and cooking, doing it before or after peak hours could save you up to $200 dollars for the summer.

They say that necessity is the mother of all invention and that's so true for Lil' Inker Designs as our very first release in August of 2010, Sentiment Flags, was born from the need to have a flag die for sentiments for our own crafty projects! Almost three years later we have a full line of fun and innovative quality products from Pinwheels to Fringe Flowers! Our stamps and dies are made using only the best quality merchandise this industry has to offer! Our dies are laser cut steel and can cut about any medium you can dream up such as card stock, felt and cork. Our stamps are clear and ultra-clingy clear photopolymer which allows for proper and easy stamp placement and alignment in your designs as well as superior ink to paper image transfer.

Napoleon HD35NT Top vent with black door 25,000 BTU's - HD35/40/46 DIRECT VENT CLEAN FACE HIGH DEFINITION GAS FIREPLACES - - natural gas
The Napoleon HD35NT 35" Direct Vent Clean Face High Definition Gas Fireplace is a special Napoleon model, with a ceramic, ultra clear glass face, giving you the ultimate modern look to match your living space.

The modern look is achieved by an ultra clean, unobstructed window of the realistic flame system – created with a Phazer® log set for a real wood appearance and an advanced burner technology with a glowing ember bed, for the most realistic flames in the industry. Many people set these fireplaces higher off the ground and inset in your living room wall to further accent contemporary trends. The Napoleon HD35NT Fireplace can be installed almost anywhere in the house because the venting can go either up or straight outside a side wall, giving you the flexibility to put it anywhere in your home or apartment. It also features a fuel saving electronic ignition with battery back-up and built-in adjustable flame and heat control, so it's as efficient as it is majestic. The pivoting glass door is heat resistant and radiates heat back into the room, too. Buy with confidence: the Napoleon HD35NT comes with the unparalleled limited lifetime warranty for which Napoleon is renowned.
You can really customize this fireplace for the ultimate in fireplace fame. River rock kits, in grey and multi-color, a faceplate with operable doors and variously finished contemporary 4-sided frames make it stand out even more. Reflective panels, brick panels or andirons can provide even more beauty. Don't forget to improve your efficiency with a remote control, a blower kit, a hot air distribution kit or a thermostat – or go for all four if you dare. It's easy to achieve the fireplace of your dreams with Napoleon!

Waco, Twenty Years LaterWhat Statism Is All About
Recorded: Wednesday, April 17, 2013
Twenty years ago, Americans witnessed the greatest law enforcement atrocity in modern U.S history. On February 28th, 1993, the ATF raided the Branch Davidian home in Waco, Texas. The stand-off finally ended 51 days later, on April 19th, after the building went up in flames, killing 70 civilians including more than 20 children. Reflections by Independent Institute Research Fellow Anthony Gregory.

A few weeks back we were developing our BYOD solution, part of which required us to try and block peer-2-peer traffic on our wifi.
Meru support were very attentive and helpful but it looked like it was not possible on our hardware.
However I mentioned this to Mark at Meru UK,
He gave me a call the next day and although he's not the technical guy we chatted and he realised he would be in the area with Paul ( the technical one ) today and said they would try and get through.
Tonight we had the pleasure of their company, they fixed one issue and found out that we can achieve our goal of separating p2p with existing firmware. We got one controller configured leaving the easy job to replicate across the other controller tomorrow.
With Pauls help this evening we have a number of pointers to improve the install ( done by 3rd party ) which will help us to monitor and maintain it when BYOD is launched.
Mark's gr8 at ordering Pizza.
Many thanks to you both, hope you got to Edinburgh ok.

Sir: Koro is a Malay term meaning "head of a turtle." First reported by Dutch physicians working in western Sulawesi, the condition has also been observed among ethnic Chinese, where it has been known as suoyang (suo: retract; yang: penis). Koro has been described as the intense fear that one's genitals are shrinking into the body and may recede into the abdomen, possibly causing death.

Hi Ms. Monette,
Thank you for your answers to my query. We did follow your advise and we now have a new brand for our softeners, and it really smells good. I'm also happy to inform you that our sales are slowly picking up; thanks to some marketing and word of mouth advertising from our satisfied clients.
Thank you Ms. Monette! Couldn't have done it without your seminar. More power to you and our fellow laundry business owners.

Cars.com Announces Nominees For Best Pickup Truck Of 2014
CHICAGO, Dec. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Cars.com, the premier online resource for buying and selling new and used cars, announced today nominees for their all-new award, "Best Pickup Truck of the Year," powered by PickupTrucks.com, the authority for new and used pickup truck buyers. Nominees for the 2014 award include the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford F-150, GMC Sierra 1500, Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, Ram 2500/3500 HD and Toyota Tundra.
"Pickup truck sales have skyrocketed in 2013, making up nearly 14% of total sales for the year," said Patrick Olsen, Cars.com's Editor-in-Chief. "Shoppers are increasingly gravitating towards these tough haulers, and manufacturers are responding accordingly with impressive, high-quality and good looking models. That's why we're introducing this new award for a category that is well deserving of honor."
Finalists for "Best Pickup Truck of 2014" and the reasons for its nomination by Cars.com and PickupTrucks.com editors include (in alphabetical order):
2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 : From bumper to bumper, inside and out, the 2014 Silverado is stronger, smarter, more efficient and more capable than the outgoing model it replaced.2014 Ford F-150 : Ford consistently holds its lead in truck sales by delivering solid products, good-looking trim packages and functional options. The 2014 offers buyers just that, with a version of the truck for just about every driver's need. 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 : The GMC version of the Silverado offers its own distinctive look with unique body panels, hoods, front grilles, headlights and taillights. 2014 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel : New for 2014, Ram will be the first to offer a diesel option for half-ton buyers. The existing 1500 is a truck that has impressed many since its 2013 redesign, but the added diesel option for 2014 will result in impressive engine power paired with great fuel economy. 2014 Ram 2500/3500 HD : Following the 2013 redesign of the 1500, it is the 2500/3500 HD's turn for 2014. This redesign comes with an upgraded frame, front suspension and Cummins option, but the biggest news is included heavy-duty, load-leveling airbag spring option for serious towers. 2014 Toyota Tundra : Current Tundra owners raved so much about the truck's powertrain that the 2014 makeover focused almost entirely on interior, exterior and design changes. The biggest updates came in the form of a new exterior, new headlights and taillights, and significantly improved interior and cabin features. For more information on all of Cars.com's award nominees, visit www.Cars.com/awards. Winners will be announced on January 14, 2014 at the Cars.com Best of 2014 event in Detroit during the North American International Auto Show.

Whole excursion was no where near 7 hrs.... If you snorkeled you were only out there for maybe 15-20 min at most...if you scuba dives it was the same.....not even worth putting on the equipment. Then we were dropped off on the island for a short stay...no sooner did they drop off the last motor boat full they were shuffling us back to the big boat. The lunch was decent... sandwiches, fruit and potato salad. We left the Marina about 11am and were back by 4pm the latest. To me it was NOT worth the money at all. Really the only plus was the guys on the boat were friendly and some funny....

I feel bored with my fiance.I don't feel like seeing him and I started to feel bored when talking to him, what to do?
every couple goes through a boring phase...dont worry about it...try to do something different...go on a vacation...try new "positions" ....talk to him about monotony in general...dont say you are bored with him...maybe he can help...
Some of that advice is terrible :P

Figure out what it is about your fiance' that 'bores' you, then spice it up.

And, if it helps, spice up your sex life. After all, being engaged is glorified as the 'most loving' time of our lives :)
You don't want to get married. Saying this kind of stuff in the lead up to the wedding is a good indicator. You don't want to say "I don't want to get married" because it makes you feel guilty so you say stuff like this to beat around the bush.

Do him a favor, leave him before this gets any worse.
Get rid of him. This is no recipe for a healthy relationship.
Figure out why you are now finding him boring. If you are finding him boring now, and you don't find a way to put some interest back into your relationship, you might as well call the whole thing off.
Imagine how much worst it will be if you decide to marry him.Hmmm! sounds like you don't have good chemistry to me!
Test out another fiance.
I'd say it's normal to feel like that sometimes. Feelings come and feelings fade. It's your choice and commitment that keeps your love alive.
tell him to "make himself useful" and then "madness ensues" :D

PERTH, Australia -- The Company confirmed that the Templet #1 well was spudded on 10 August 2014. The well is presently drilling ahead at 374 ft. The well is anticipated to take 45 days to drill to TD.
The well is located on the Louise Prospect on the Napoleonville Dome and is targeting 600,000-800,000 bbls oil in an updip segment of a proven oil bearing compartment.
The Company owns a 22.57% WI and will be paying 19.26% of the dryhole well costs.
The well is expected to penetrate an accumulation of oil in a 3D-defined, normally pressured, block updip from a productive well where an equivalent target interval has produced 2.2 Mbbl oil and 10.5 Bcf gas. The prospect follows the same style as Desiree and is located to the immediate south and was developed using by the Company' s in-house Geological and Geophysical team. This well is considered low risk both from drilling operations and geological and geophysical perspectives.

Elena Delle Donne scores 23 points, lifts Sky past Silver Stars
By SETH GRUEN For Sun-Times Media June 9, 2013 10:52PM

Updated: June 10, 2013 6:39PM
Sky rookie Elena Delle Donne easily could find success in the WNBA by roaming the perimeter and using her superior height to shoot over smaller wing players.
But Delle Donne, who stands 6-5, knows using her versatility could make her one of the toughest players in the league to cover.
In the Sky's 72-70 victory Sunday against the San
Antonio Silver Stars at Allstate Arena, Delle Donne was assertive in the post, which gave her the chance to make the game-winning free throws with 1.8 seconds left.
After Silver Stars guard Jia Perkins tied the score at 70 on a three-pointer with 4.3 seconds left, the Sky (4-1) called a timeout so it could get the ball at halfcourt. The ball went directly to Delle Donne in the post. From there, she made one move
toward the middle of the lane, went up for a turnaround jumper and was fouled.
''[The post] was kind of just something coach [Pokey Chatman] saw on the run, and it's what we turned to with the last play,'' Delle Donne said. ''You make
adjustments as the game goes on. That's what Coach was doing.''
Delle Donne finished with a career-high 23 points and has scored in double figures in all five games.
The Sky played without guard Epiphanny Prince, who was scheduled to be with the Russian national team until June 30 but
returned to Chicago in the last few days after injuring her ankle. Prince is averaging 20.6 points.

With Great East Falls High now just a memory, the kids have grown into adults ready to wreak havoc with a new rite of passage: Jim and Michelle are getting married--in a hurry. Jim's grandmother is sick and wants to see Jim walk down the aisle, so they're going for it in two frantic weeks. Stifler plans to be there (for the bridesmaids!) and, more importantly, to throw the ultimate bachelor party (for the strippers!). Finch is all for the hedonistic rituals, but not for letting Stifler steal the maid of honor, who happens to be Michelle's sexy younger sister, Cadence. But while everybody else sweats and frets, Jim's Dad is cool as ever, dispensing advice that no one wants to hear and getting ready for one of the best days of his life. … More

Critic Reviews for American Wedding
All Critics (170) | Top Critics (39) | Fresh (84) | Rotten (70) | DVD (24)
A worn-out gross-out.
Funny when it needs to be. I don't know what more you can ask from the third installment of a series that has gone further than anyone reasonably could have expected.
If there was ever a case of Hollywood's over-stroking a formula to squeeze every last drop out of it, American Wedding is it.
If you do not bring pride, good taste or sense to this third American Pie installment, you'll have a good time.
Dylan delivers a comedy just on the high side of exactly what's expected.
It's not as good as the first film, but it's a definite step up from the previous installment.
The "American Pie" franchise throws in another kitchen sink of gross-out sight gags by screenwriter Adam Herz ("American Pie" 1 and 2) in this third, and hopefully final installment, of percolating testosterone commotion.
From one funny scene to another, Wedding throws so many laughs at the audience you can barely keep up.
[T]here's a subversive sweetness that runs just beneath the surface of the American Pie movies that makes them nearly impossible to resist.
Yes, those arrested adolescents are back for another helping of all-American teen smut.
[Seann William] Scott is more than ready for the spotlight, turning out one of the best comedic performances of recent movies.
Even fans of the first two films may find the proceedings pretty tiresome, but then they made those movies into hits, so anything's possible.
Quem poderia imaginar que Stifler se tornaria o centro da s�rie American Pie - e que isso seria uma coisa boa?
You'd think if you made a third one, you're gonna at least try to make some progress as a filmmaker, even within this limited scope of American Pie.
Nadia is nowhere to be seen and Stifler never surrenders the spotlight in what is the weakest link of the American Pie series.
... enjoy the cinematic conclusion of what happens when sexually active teens get to grow up instead of being killed off at summer camp by a maniac slasher.
...hopefully there will be more to come; it would be a shame if this really is 'Bye bye, Miss American Pie.'
It's not that the movie is bad, it just feels awkward and not quite right.
It's not often sequels are better than the original but after a disappointing second instalment, writer Adam Herz has saved the best until last.
Audience Reviews for American Wedding
The humor is more over-the-top, and the morality is even more real and inspiring. American Wedding is that slice of pie that just as life fulfilling as the first installment. Though the film isn't as powerful as the original it's still a good edition to the American Pie franchise. 4/5The humor is more over-the-top, and the morality is even more real and inspiring.

Michelle: Love isn't just a feeling. It's shaving your balls.
"This time they're going all the way."
Like every other American Pie film, American Wedding is just an average comedy. There's many laughs throughout, but I wouldn't call it a great comedy or even good comedy. It's average. There's nothing makes this movie anything more than just another raunch fest. The cast is serviceable as always, but other Stifler and Finch, none of these characters are anything to write home about.�
Jim and Michelle have graduated from college and are now going to get married. All the normal, everything goes wrong gags are at work here. Nobody wants Stifler to be invited to the wedding, but he manages to find a way in. It doesn't help anything either, when Michelle's extremely hot, and virgin sister arrives. Stifler and Finch end up battling for her, while stuff keeps going wrong as the wedding approaches.
There's really not too much to say about this movie. It's decent, but not something I thoroughly enjoyed. It has its moments and should satisfy fans of the previous two films. What made the movie watchable for me was Stifler acting like a good old boy in order to try to get his hands on Michelle's sister. In the end though, this was nothing special and just another addition to the American Pie franchise.
Super Reviewer
The best part of the American Pie films for me has been the relationship between lovable yet geeky horndog Jim and Michelle the band geek who proved she has quite a wild side. First they hooked up at prom, then, in part two they genuinely fell in love.
In this, the third (and for a while, final) film in the series, the film takes the logical route to a story that started with maturation and virginity loss and concludes with Jim proposing marriage to Michelle. What follows, as you might expect, is a zany plot filled to the brim with gross out gags and crude sexual humor, as well as one bad thing after another happening, but all ends well, and, much like the first film, there's a good story here, as well as tons of heart, charm, and sweetness.
Stiffler has never really been my favorite character, but he becomes quite the focus for a lot of the time. The way they handle his character though marks a big turn for him, and he really shows his true colors, even if it means Finch (my favorite) and Kevin take a back seat to helping Jim get through all his problems to come out on top.
The film sees the departure of several significant characters in the series, absent in reality due to scheduling conflicts and difficulties with coming up with good plot lines for them all. It bugs me though, because there's no explanation given within the film for all of this.
Things I liked about this film, aside from a logical story line that people care about, and a good mix of heart to go with the raunch, the casting of the great Fred Willard as Michelle's dad, made even more fun by the fact that he and Eugene Levy together can ham it up as the well meaning and caring, but sometimes embarrassing dads. Seeing Finch and Stiffler trade roles and behavior in order to fight over Michelle's hot little sister (a young January Jones) is good too. The use of two versions (due to licensing issues) of the great Van Morrison song "Into the Mystic" during the big climax is great too.
Overall, the film is a lot of fun and wraps up a good trilogy nicely. It's not perfect, and despite his coming around, there's still too much Stiffler and not enough of Jim's 'real' friends, although, like I said, the way they handle the Stiffler subplot acts works nicely. Oh and of course, you have to throw in John Cho and Jennifer Coolidge for good measure. I enjoyed this film, and think you should give it a shot.

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) – A local World War II veteran is celebrating a milestone in just a few days; Lt. Col. Vinson Huegle turns 95 years old.
Lt. Colonel Vinson Huegele retired from the United States Air Force in 1964, but not after nearly a quarter of a century serving his country he loves so much, dating back to 1941.
"I didn't realize it at the time but I was taking my first step into the greatest generations of workers in the United States," he said.
Lt. Col. Huegele said it was an experience he will never forget.
"They blew the taps and then lights out. I realized I was alone in this world and it was something completely different that I had ever done before," he said.
His first assignment: Fort Sam Houston in Texas, where he was assigned to the 7th Signal Corps. Its mission: to operate the telephone system.
"Led to a bunch of interesting connections. One was an officer named Dwight Eisenhower. We knew him well because his wife called so many times, we had the telephone fixed. Only thing wrong with the telephone, it was a dial phone and she was fumbling around and couldn't ever get the correct number and she almost court marshaled some of my workers because they said she was drunk and couldn't dial correctly," said Huegele.
Several months later, the bombing of Pearl Harbor put things into perspective.
"Somebody turned on the radio and they were talking about Pearl Harbor. None of us had any idea where Pearl Harbor was. But we soon found where it is. Major in charge said "Private Huegele, we're fighting for our lives now." I didn't realize it at the time, but he was right," said Huegele.
At 94, Lt. Col. Huegele and his wife spend time with each other, remembering the past…and giving advice to young people today.
"Seek more education. You learn more every day when you're on duty like we had. You learn something new every day. I'll be 95 in a few days and I'm still learning new things that are happening. I feel great. It's been a great trip, I would say," he said. "I took the oath of office at Camp Dodd back in 1941. We are to obey all lawful orders, honor the flag, the colors of the United States, and never abandon your post. God, country, self is priority, given our lives. If necessary, you're going to die. But you never think a second thought of that. People would say: 'Thank you for your service.' Well, if my time to go, I received the call. Any man still in uniform would go.
Lt. Colonel Huegele will celebrate his 95th birthday on April 6.

Letters to the Editor
Date: January 2, 2013
by: Observer Staff
+ Rats get eradicated but raccoons get a pass?
Dear Editor:
I find it highly amusing, somewhat ironic and grossly hypocritical that the town staff via its multiple arms should react so swiftly and forcefully in trying to eradicate a poor family of rats who had invaded the sanctity of the town offices.
A couple of years ago, I went before commissioners with a proposal to rid the town of raccoons for precisely the same reasons that the town's death-dealing minions deprived those poor rats of the blessings of life: leaving a trail of debris and droppings, making a mess, potentially carrying disease and inhabiting space that rightly belongs to civilized people. I even proposed, to the commission, hiring a professional raccoon-trapper and selected the best (cheapest) from a list of six. I doubt town staff performed an extensive bidding review, as I did, before selecting the designated rat-trapper. If so, that would appear to be an abuse of staff's government powers.
The town went even further when it notified the chief of police, thereby invoking supreme lethal force, if needed. I sense a strong double standard for town employees and office space versus us common tax-paying citizens and our private property. Rats get eradicated; raccoons get a pass.
My guess is, also, that there weren't as many snide comments and jokes offered — such as I received in speaking before commissioner — when the rat problem was being discussed at such high levels of government.
Well, town staff, I'll let you go so that you can get back to your rat-killing. If you find any dead raccoons on your doorstep you might guess where they have come from and pass an ordinance. Should that occur, I will await the heavy footfall of an arresting gendarme, and invoke Amendment XIV, Section 1. Hire another town attorney.

+ We need to change the gun laws
Dear Editor:
I have been an outdoorsman since my first memories of fishing with my mother and father and have been an outdoor journalist for more than two decades. Although, I'm not a hunter myself, I have many friends and associates who are, and by and large, they are outstanding individuals who value the resource and understand the responsibilities of gun ownership.
However, though I may respect my friends and those who own guns, the most-recent senseless mind-numbing tragedy that unfolded in Connecticut has made me question whether I can simply stand back from the power of the gun lobby and those who would say that "guns don't kill people, people kill people."
I've been uncomfortable with the gun laws in this country for many years, have voted my conscience, but have largely remained silent on the issue based on my respect for the gun owners I know. That being said, I have never understood how an organization like The National Rifle Association, (NRA) could be allowed to control the legislative agenda that represents 350 million citizens in this country, when that organization vehemently defends a citizen's right to own a weapon as dangerous as an assault rifle. The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence has pointed out that, "as a result of the NRA's lobbying, gun crime has soared" and a teenager can "purchase an AK-47 semi-automatic assault rifle at a gun show without having to show ID and without a background check." Or as in the tragedy in Connecticut, a teenager can simply take his parent's weapons and commit murder starting, it appears, with the parent who provided the weapons. It seems ludicrous that it would be easier for a teenager to buy an assault rifle than to adopt a kitten at the ASPCA.
I can no longer remain silent, because I feel that apathy in light of the litany of horrendous shootings is like giving tacit approval to a situation that has destroyed too many innocent lives, both young and old. I encourage my fellow citizens to speak up and stand up for basic decency. This is not about denying hunters their firearms or a homeowner the right to a gun for their personal protection. It's about limiting access to a weapon that has no place in civilized society. Let's do the right thing and help protect the lives of our most vulnerable citizens.

- I couldn't agree more with Rusty. I have to believe that most Americans would agree that assault weapons and multi-bullet magazines should be outlawed except for law enforcement. The original intent of the country's founders has been distorted resulting in terrible consequences to our society.

Saks Fifth Avenue Returns To NBC's Fashion Star For A Second Season
Saks Fifth Avenue will return to NBC's Fashion Star for second season, and style icon Terron Schaefer will once again represent Saks on the show. Fashion Star returns to NBC tonight at 8 p.m./7c.
Fashion Star is a reality competition TV Show, in which 12 unknown designers will be teamed up with celebrity mentors, for the chance to launch their collections in three of America's most well-known retailers (Saks, Express and Macy's). Each week, working with their mentors, the contestants are given a challenge to design clothing with a certain look, feel, and functionality. The culmination of their efforts comes with a fashion show during which they display their work to the "buyers" of the three retailers. At the end of each episode, judges from the retailers will go head-to-head and compete against each other for the right to purchase and exclusively carry the work of that week's winner. The designs selected by Terron Schaefer will immediately be available for purchase online at saks.com following the show.
In the end, one designer will successfully combine fashion and business to become the next "Fashion Star" and will receive the grand prize - $3 million in orders for capsule collections in each of Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy's, and Express.
Fashion Star "Season Two" features returning celebrity mentors Jessica Simpson, Nicole Richie and John Varvatos, alongside new host Louise Roe. During the show, see Terron's tweets live from @saks streamed on the saks.com Fashion Star page.Visit Saks POV at sakspov.com for behind the scenes coverage of the show.

Factory production dips; wholesale inflation muted
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke warned Monday that "headwinds" – including rising unemployment and hard-to-get credit – will restrain the recovery.
The expectation of low inflation gives the Fed leeway to hold rates low for an "extended period," Bernanke said Monday, repeating a pledge made at the central bank's meeting earlier this month. The Fed isn't expected to start raising rates until after the jobless rate peaks, probably around mid-2010.
The overall rise in wholesale prices reflected a 1.6 percent jump in energy prices as gasoline rose 1.9 percent. Oil prices rose as high as $81 per barrel in October, up from a price around $70 in September.
Elsewhere, food prices last month rose 1.6 percent, driven by a 24.2 percent jump in vegetable prices, the most in two years. Egg, fruit and milk costs also rose.
The government will report consumer prices on Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Thomson Reuters are forecasting a modest increase of 0.2 percent, partially from higher gas prices. Excluding food and energy, consumer prices are expected to grow 0.1 percent.
AP Economics Writer Christopher S. Rugaber contributed to this report.
