Sugar Program:
Supporting Sugar Prices Has Increased Users' Costs While Benefiting Producers
RCED-00-126: Published: Jun 9, 2000. Publicly Released: Jun 9, 2000.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-9692
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO estimated the Department of Agriculture's (USDA) sugar program's: (1) costs to domestic sweetener users; (2) benefits to domestic sugar and high-fructose corn syrup producers; and (3) net effects on the U.S. economy--the differences between the costs to users and the benefits to producers that result from artificially high sweetener prices.
GAO noted that: (1) GAO estimates that the sugar program cost domestic sweetener users about $1.5 billion in 1996 and about $1.9 billion in 1998; (2) sweetener users included: (a) sugarcane refiners that bought raw cane sugar; (b) food manufacturers that bought refined sugar and other sweeteners; and (c) final consumers who bought sweeteners and sweetener-containing products; (3) the program's costs to U.S. sweetener users depend on the world price of sugar and can vary from year to year--they will be higher, other things being equal, when the difference between the domestic and the world price is greater; (4) in 1998, for example, the program's costs to users were higher than in 1996 because the world price dropped while the domestic price remained about the same; (5) the primary beneficiaries of the sugar program's higher prices are domestic sugar beet and sugarcane producers who, GAO estimates, received benefits of about $800 million in 1996 and about $1 billion in 1998; (6) about 70 percent of the benefits went to sugar beet growers and processors; (7) sugarcane producers received about 30 percent of the benefits; (8) GAO estimates that the sugar program resulted in net losses to the U.S. economy of about $700 million in 1996 and about $900 million in 1998; (9) GAO net loss estimates include economic inefficiencies and transfers to foreign producers; (10) economic inefficiencies occurred, for example, when the sugar program's artificially high domestic prices encouraged farmers to grow sugar beets instead of another crop, such as wheat, that, without the sugar program, might have been relatively more profitable; (11) inefficiencies also occurred when artificially high sugar prices discouraged consumers from purchasing sugar; (12) the cost of these inefficiencies totalled about $300 million in 1996 and about $500 million in 1998; (13) transfers from the U.S. economy to foreign producers occurred because foreign producers received artificially high prices for the raw sugar they exported to the United States; (14) GAO estimates that these transfers amounted to about $400 million in both 1996 and 1998; and (15) the transfers were about the same in each year despite the larger difference between domestic and world prices in 1998 because the United States imported less sugar in 1998.

The Southern Poverty Law Center's Mark Potok (HateWatch, 2/13/09) gives a review of Ann Coulter's lengthy history of "sliming everyone and everything she disagrees with" before disclosing that, "despite denouncing school desegregation as a 'spectacular' failure, Coulter has generally avoided bolstering white supremacist hate groups. Until now, that is":
In her latest foaming-mouth tome–Guilty: Liberal "Victims" and Their Assault on America, released on January 6–Coulter spends the better part of three pages defending a group called the Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC), which the New York Times had described as a "thinly veiled white supremacist organization." Coulter begs to differ. The CCC, Coulter opines, is "a conservative group" that has unfairly been branded as racist "because some of the directors of the CCC had, decades earlier, been leaders of a segregationist group."…
Coulter could hardly be more wrong…. The CCC's columnists have written that black people are "a retrograde species of humanity," and that non-white immigration is turning the U.S. population into a "slimy brown mass of glop." Its website has run photographic comparisons of pop singer Michael Jackson and a chimpanzee. It opposes "forced integration" and decries racial intermarriage. It has lambasted black people as "genetically inferior," complained about "Jewish power brokers," called gay people "perverted sodomites," and even named the late Lester Maddox, the baseball bat-wielding, arch-segregationist former governor of Georgia, "Patriot of the Century."
Potok explains that Coulter "really ought to know" this, since "the organization where she frequently speaks, the Conservative Political Action Committee, has publicly banned the CCC from its annual gathering because it is racist."
Read how, crank though she may be, Ann Coulter is one of a class of media figures that facilitates the spread of such hate into much larger venues–see the FAIR magazine Extra!: "Academic Racists Make Mainstream Inroads: From National Review to the New York Times" (3-4/05) by Steve Rendall.
For more on the Council of Conservative Citizens, see FAIR Press Release: "National Media Should Cover Racist Links of Prominent Elected Officials Like Rep. Bob Barr and Sen. Trent Lott" (12/11/98)

Great collection of videos from long ago. This is a great way for your kids to see the kind of movies you grew up with and what really makes a good movie!
Thank You So Much.. This is a great collection of long ago classic movies. I really recomend and enjoy this collection, even my 18 yr. old grandson thinks its awesome,, Imagin That. I hope .. This is the year 2010.. I rate this better than 5 stars.. Have a wonderfull time if you order this, I am. These are great films. Take care and God Bless
If you are a fan of old horror movies then this is the buy. Arrived in three days and high quality.
For the price it is exactly what we expected. How can you beat 50 movies for less than $20.
The Horror Classics 50 Movie Pack - 12-DVD Set (DVD) is excellent. I enjoyed all of the movies. I would tell my friends to buy it.
I was so excited after purchasing this but then I realized it was defective. Each DVD is two sided with 2 movies on each side. Every single DVD only works on the 1st side. Every single one was like that. I even thought maybe it was my dvd player, so I went out and bought a new one. To my surprise it wasn't my dvd player but the actual dvd's. I even let a friend borrow a few of them and it did not work for her either.
fun video filled with classic 1950 's monsters , if you are a classic movie buff ,you gotta have this one
Im a sucker for horror movies and this covers a vast amount if the older movies that I haven't even watched so I love this collection for the price.

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. (STI; OTCBB: SRNE) today announced that it has acquired worldwide rights that will allow for the application of STI's industry leading antibody library technology for the production of recombinant Intravenous immunoglobulins (rIVIG). Global sales of IVIG products exceeded $5 billion in 2012 and are projected to grow for the foreseeable future.
"With the acquisition of the proprietary rights to the rIVIG technology, we now have access to a multi-billion dollar market opportunity applying our G-MAB® antibody libraries to address unmet medical needs," said Henry Ji, Ph.D., President & Chief Executive Officer of STI.
"Partnering our rIVIG invention with STI's unique G-MAB® technology may produce novel and highly differentiated IVIG products," adds Dr. Tien Lee, M.D., one of the co-inventors of the rIVIG technology.
About IVIG IVIG assists in the treatment of medical conditions in several broad categories including primary and secondary immunological deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, and acute infections. The wide range of specific applications currently include immune-mediated ITP, Guillain Barré syndrome, Kawasaki disease, allogeneic bone marrow transplants, CIDP, CLL, as well as a spectrum of off-label uses including multiple sclerosis, factor resistant hemophilias, myasthenia gravis, and many others. IVIG is also being investigated for use in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other neurological conditions.
Currently, IVIG preparations are derived from human donor blood products pooled from over 1,000 healthy individuals. However, increasing demand for IVIG products already exceeds available supply worldwide, limiting broader clinical applications. The use of STI's proprietary G-MAB® library technology for the production of rIVIG may circumvent many disadvantages and obstacles currently encumbering IVIG preparations, such as potential supply constraint, costly production due to fractionation, purification and quality control challenges. Potential advantages of rIVIG include reduced batch-to-batch inconsistencies, minimal contamination risk, increased potency, and no need for continued human blood donor supply.
About Sorrento Therapeutics Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc. is a development-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel and proprietary biotherapeutics for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions, including cancer, inflammation, metabolic and infectious diseases. The Company's objective is to identify drug development candidates derived from its proprietary human antibody libraries and either independently or through one or more partnerships with pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical organizations, advance selected targets into preclinical or clinical development activities. In 2012, the Company identified and further developed a number of potential drug product candidates across various therapeutic areas, and intend to select several lead product candidates to progress into preclinical development activities in 2013. More information is available at www.sorrentotherapeutics.com.
Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Forward-looking statements include statements about Sorrento Therapeutics' metabolic disease program and its prospects, whether the Company's development of antibody therapeutics targeting metabolic diseases holds great clinical promise and the Company's potential development of human antibody therapeutics. Risks and uncertainties include whether Sorrento Therapeutics will have sufficient resources to develop antibody therapeutics and additional risks set forth in Sorrento Therapeutics' filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements represent Sorrento Therapeutics' judgment as of the date of this release. The Company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

The Science Centre Singapore was designed as a fun way to educate children about the wonders of science. A family can easily spend a day here but don't expect to be able to explore it all in one day as there are more than 1,000 interactive exhibits. The most fun for youngsters is probably the Waterworks featuring a fun water maze made up from water jets. The bottom line is that no child will leave the park completely dry.
The Science Centre Singapore has been a custodian of creativity and innovation, capturing the evolution of scientific developments through unique and relevant exhibitions and shows and continues to ignite young minds and foster new generations of scientifically savvy Singaporeans. Our many interactive exhibits, housed in 14 galleries, cover a wide range of topics related to science, technology and mathematics.
There is an additional 20,000 sq.m. of outdoor exhibition space showcasing the Waterworks exhibition, Kinetic Garden and Ecogarden. We also offer a wide range of enrichment programmes for students aimed at complementing the school's formal science education as well as enriching and fun events, competitions and outreach activities for everyone.
Curious kids can take a tour to the Bioethics Exhibition to learn more about Dolly, the cloned sheep or take on a voyage into space at the Space Science Exhibition or understand more of fire and its chemical reaction at the Fire Exhibition. The folks at Science Centre Singapore are always busy introducing new, temporary science activities on top of their permanent exhibitions such as the popular 'CSI: The Experience', an exhibition inspired by the famous CBS television series CSI.
This well-put-together scientific institution is on Upper Jurong Road. Its facilities include a few food outlets (one of it is a McDonald's shop.), coin-operated lockers, baby strollers for and retail shops. Many people also make a trip to Science Centre Singapore's sister attractions; Omni-Theatre, Singapore's only IMAX dome theatre and the Snow City, the first permanent indoor snow centre in Singapore.

NSA may not stop data collection even if Congress makes it illegal
Posted By Jeff Belanger On December 15, 2013 @ 9:45 AM In General Tech | 8 Comments
The USA Freedom Act aims to curb mass data collection [2] by US intelligence agencies. However, even if the act is passed into law, because of the wording of the bill, it has been pointed out that it may not be effective enough to do so. In other words, NSA and co may have a loophole… even before the law becomes an actual law.
"If the USA Freedom Act becomes law, it's going to depend on how the court interprets any number of the provisions that are in it," James Cole said. Cole is the Deputy Attorney General and spoke out about these fears at a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which took place on Wednesday.
"Right now the interpretation of the word 'relevant' is a broad interpretation," Cole also said at the hearing. "Adding 'pertinent to a foreign agent' or 'somebody in contact with a foreign agent' could be another way of talking about relevance as it is right now. We'd have to see how broadly the court interprets that or how narrowly."
The current NSA Director Keith Alexander still believes that the program should not be shut down. "There is no other way that we know of to connect the dots," he said, and thinks that it is still a good way to keep an eye on terrorist threats. Luckily, or unluckily depending on which side of the fence you sit on, he is supposed to be leaving in the next couple of months.
I suppose it wouldn't be politics if it didn't have loopholes.

'Most admired' list: Gingrich up, Palin down; Obama, Clinton still No. 1
For two years running, President Obama is the man Americans most admire, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is again the most-admired woman, a new Gallup survey shows. But the public's views of other politicians shifted noticeably in 2011.
Alex Brandon/AP/File
While nearly 48 percent of voters disapprove of Barack Obama's performance as president, Americans say Mr. Obama is the man they most admire, according to a Gallup survey. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is the most admired woman.
President Obama and Secretary Clinton's rankings atop the men's and women's "most admired" lists did not change in the 2011 edition of the annual Gallup poll. But the public's views of other politicians did shift noticeably. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republican vice-presidential nominee in 2008, fell from second place, a spot she has held for the past three years, to fourth place in 2011.
Meanwhile, Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann made her first appearance on the list, in the No. 10 spot. The women's list in order is Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Ms. Palin, Condoleezza Rice, Laura Bush, Margaret Thatcher, Ellen DeGenres, Queen Elizabeth II, and Congresswoman Bachmann.

Concierge.com's insider take:
This lavishly decorated, candlelit restaurant in the Old Town Square is the city's most famous Polish eatery, and everyone from Margaret Thatcher and Jacques Chirac to Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer have dined here (although not together, as far as we know). Portions are on the small side and it's one of the most expensive restaurants in town, but it's a good-value spot for those accustomed to dining in pricier cities. Fukier is known for its wine cellar, and grilled steak is the specialty dish, but the traditional mushroom soup, whole duck, and leg of veal are all worth a taste. Reservations are essential.

This is one lady who's sure to make Laloo proud! Wondering why? Well, Pariva Pranati the lead in Star Plus' new historical, Prithviraj Chauhan is a Bihari and she tells anyone who's willing to listen that she belongs to Laloodom. Having done cameo's in Bhabhi , Hotel Kingston and Don this young actor is playing Prithviraj Chauhan's (Angad Bedi's) love interest in the show. This avid movie buff has refused some raunchy music videos which came her way recently because she is completely against skin show. Kavita Shyam spoke to perky Pariva
My father is an Air Force officer so I have been traveling all over India. I am a Bihari and I visit Patna during holidays. I studied in Delhi at Lady Shree Ram College where I completed History honours and my ambitions would keep changing every few months - I wanted to become a doctor, an IAS officer, Airforce officer, advertising professional until I decided to get into acting. Destiny got me to this profession and I have grown up watching television and movies.
Acting… I've not done modeling but have some cousins in the media profession and thought of getting my portfolio done and circulating it. I worked in Bhabhi where I played Sanyukta and was a part of the twenty year leap and the shot has taught me the technical aspects and trained me as an actor. My track in Don is yet to be aired and I'd done an episodic in Hotel Kingston where the Sagars liked my work and finally after an audition I get to play Sanyogita in Prithviraj Chauhan. My inspiration is Rani Mukherjee, I loved her in Black and I love her voice.
I play… I am glad they thought of me to play Sanyogita, the princess in Prithviraj Chauhan. I am quite confident that the show will do well as it's a huge show. My character falls in love with Prithvi without seeing him instead has only heard stories about his bravery. Not many historicals are made today and I have been able to get out of the Bhabhi mould with this show. I'll soon start reading up books and searching the internet on Prithviraj Chauhan.
Working with Angad Bedi(my co-star) So far I've shot the promo and it's been a good experience working with him. Once while shooting, I was horse riding with Angad and I fell down, I didn't get hurt because of my heavy clothes and jewelery saved me but Angad got hurt.
Pariva off screen I am a very emotional person and if anyone talks to me rudely I become sad. I love painting and have learnt pot making from my mother, I can listen to music twenty four hours a day and I am particularly fond of Sufi music.
Projects in hand I am anchoring a show for a USA based channel wherein I talk about Indian culture and my Hindi became better after this show. Anchoring requires more confidence than acting because the minute one becomes dull on screen, it shows and one goes down. I can do films if it's a very good offer else I am happy doing television. For the next one year I'd be busy with Prithviraj Chauhan.

I really enjoyed this climb, and I agree with Brian about stick clipping. I don't like stick clipping, but this clip involved an interesting move that had my butt above my head. Had I popped off, I would've landed on my head from 8 feet up. In my experience, that's not real fun. If you're 7' 2", that's not a problem for you, as you can probably just reach the bolt. |
By Hank Sato Sep 11, 2002 |
This is a nice route. The overhanging start is not so hard once you figure out the move, but I felt the last 10D face section is harder. |
By Colonel Mustard Jul 6, 2006 |
I agree with Hank. The first move is a little burly, but pretty doable once you figure out what to do. I'd probably still stick clip it since you heel hook at that bolt. The thin face at the top is the real crux for me. What I wonder is if people are going left to the arete near the top (which was the only way I could finish it) or are they going straight up and a little right of the peak of this climb? I don't know if it was from fruitlessly yarding on the crux move Donkey Dong, but I just couldn't pull the straight-up version. |
By Bruce Morris From: Belmont, CA Jul 30, 2006 |
The straight up finish is the true crux. |
By Colonel Mustard Sep 18, 2006 |
Maybe I'm in better shape, but I finally led and sent this route fairly easily. This route has several moves/features you aren't going to find many other places. A classic in my book. For TR setups: One anchor bolt spins and we set a backup by slinging a chockstone with a cordellette 10' back from it. |

The straight up finish is indeed tough, much harder than the roof at the bottom. However, I think the natural line heads left at the last bolt, where one finishes with some fun 5.10- or so moves. There is nothing R-rated about this route if you stick-clip, but if you don't, a fall at the crux roof is really going to suck. If you have a stick clip (or are willing to TR), and are in the Indian Rock area, give this a try! It's fun! |
By KyleAnderson From: San Francisco, CA Oct 6, 2010 |
all the bolts were very well placed |
By scotticusmaximus From: Santa Cruz, CA Sep 5, 2012 |
Quite possibly the best route I've done around Castle Rock. A must do and not to be overlooked if around the Indian Rock area! |
By Sergey Shelukhin From: San Francisco, California Mar 23, 2014 |
You can clip the first bolt safely if you lay back off the pockets right under the roof. I think it's very well placed actually because you fall about one foot if you don't manage the roof. I think R is because you deck if you fall from under the 2nd bolt. Yet to lead it cleanly (coming soon - my current hardest lead is like 10a and this is a project), but I don't understand why this is 11a... mostly easy moves. |

Patty Biehler
My name is Patty Biehler and I am an artist/crafter, gardener, mother, and blogger as well and much more. I have always loved the internet and all it gives us. I started drawing and painting when I was very young as all do but it just seemed to stay with me and I just loved it. I focused more on it in my years of school and taught art in later years. When I became a mother I knew I had to redo a crib for my child. I repainted the crib with a teady bear scene of football and soccer play. It ended up such a hit by friends and family that I felt crafting was fun and a new door to open. I have been crafting ever since. To me it is a way to relieve stress. My daughter is now a teenager and she is even trying to do some with me while I make video tutorials. I started video tutorials for my own website and felt I should venture out and start sharing what I know. I have made many videos for FaveCraft's YouTube Channel. I also do videos on my own website as well. I have sold many tutorials of my work, be it art or carfts to video tutorials. I am a mother of two wonderful teens and a wife to a great husband of 14 years. I feel I have the best support team cheering me on. So I guess I will continue to keep crafting and drawing.

text: The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission has voted to repeal a ban on all hunting for portions of the Orleans Parrish. Originally instated in 1991 to assist the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in establishing the Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge, the refuge is now the largest urban wildlife refuge in the country. The Department of Wildlife and Fisheries recommended this action to control feral hogs and allow youth waterfowl hunting on the refuge. In the past two years the refuge has held youth waterfowl hunts, that were issued by an emergency order from the department secretary, and continues to increase in popularity. Regulations for hunting outside the refuge are made at the discretion of the New Orleans city government, with deer hunting already allowed in some locations within city limits. The repeal will not go into effect until late December or early January 2014, and public comment can be submitted until Nov. 7. For more information, visit WLF.Louisiana.gov.

Smaller aid efforts succeed where the large agencies fail.
BOSTON — After returning from her annual trip to Haiti last July, Ketlye Theodore stood before a church congregation on a rainy Sunday to recount the misery she witnessed during her two-week stay. Her voice rose and dropped, punctuated with the amens of the crowd.
She spoke about the seemingly permanent post-earthquake tent housing, listless adults and children with nothing to eat, lacking the most basic necessities.
"If you go to Haiti, you're going to cry every day," she said later.
Each year, the 42-year-old nursing assistant spends hundreds of dollars on soap, toothpaste and other toiletries and collects bundles of clothing and shoe donations in preparation for the trip. Theodore said during these trips she also carries thousands of dollars in cash, held by safety pins in the folds of her undergarments.
Often, the money she gives away is her own but a few months before each trip she solicits small donations from friends, work colleagues and fellow members of the Haitian Church of the Nazarene, which she attends in Boston's Mattapan neighborhood. Even five dollars goes a long way, said the mother of three, and people are usually happy to give. They're happier still when she returns with pictures showing how their contribution was used.
"When God asks you to do something, you do it, but you cannot change Haiti."~Ketlye Theodore
Once Theodore arrives in Port-au-Prince, a pit stop on her way to her family's home in Port-de-Paix on Haiti's north coast, she converts the US dollars into the local gourde currency, separates the money into envelopes to distribute on the eve of her return.
The distribution is usually preceded by a huge meal of rice and chicken, spaghetti and bread that she organizes under a tarp in her grandfather's yard for more than 300 people. "It's a big job," she said, but one she does willingly as part of her duty as a devout Christian.
Theodore welcomes orphans, families, the displaced and the homeless: basically anyone in need. All are welcome to join the worship service that accompanies the meal, usually led by a local pastor and filled with singing and prayer, an important part of the social fabric in a country where 80 percent of the people are Catholic.
"Since the earthquake, it's getting worse in Haiti," Theodore said in accented English. "When God asks you to do something, you do it, but you cannot change Haiti."
Theodore's account of the annual pilgrimage she has made since 1998 to feed stomachs and souls, which also includes visits to prisons and hospitals, is similar to that of many Haitians living abroad. But these trips, a staple of the more than 500,000 members of the Haitian diaspora in the US, have taken on more significance since the January 2010 earthquake.
More than a critical lifeline connecting Haitians abroad to the island, trips home now fill in some of the cracks where billions in aid donors pledged in the aftermath of the disaster have yet to reach two years later. A host of factors — ranging from Haitian bureaucracy to an ongoing cholera epidemic to lack of NGO coordination to hampered rubble removal — seem to stymie even the largest agencies even as they continue renewing their funding pledges.
Variations on Theodore's story are familiar in the Haitian church community and so too are the warning tales. In November, the US State Department warned citizens traveling to Haiti about kidnappings, which numbered 12 in the last year along with 82 reported robberies, an improvement from the 60 reported kidnappings of US citizens in 2006.
The story of a Haitian-American woman on a church-affiliated trip who was robbed, kidnapped and held for ransom circulated widely among churches in Boston this summer. And although her mother and brother confirmed the kidnapping reports, the woman declined an interview request by GlobalPost, citing the trauma she'd experienced as well as the ongoing investigation.
Even Theodore said the desperation was palpable when she last visited. Violent fights broke out during the food distribution. On her next trip, she plans to contact the police for help beforehand. "If someone gets hurt, it will be my responsibility," she said.
Not everyone agrees these piecemeal efforts make the kind of difference

text: http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140673608606030/fulltext The Lancet 2008; 371:1389 DOI:10.1016/S0140-6736(08)60603-0 Editorial Finding long-term solutions to the world food crisis While customers at restaurants in New York City will soon be able to count the calories of their meals in an attempt to curb the obesity epidemic, people in New Delhi are currently counting their grains of rice. From Bolivia to Yemen, people around the world are taking to the streets in protest at the spiralling increases in food prices. Politicians have been sacked, protesters have died, and some governments are imposing extreme measures to ration food and control their hungry populations. The era of cheap food is over. In the past year, the cost of wheat has risen by 130%, rice by 120%, with corn and soya not far behind. As a result, millions of people are starving and at least 100 million more people will be pushed further into poverty. Food, the fundamental determinant of health, is unaffordable to an increasing proportion of the world's population. As usual, the poorest are affected the most, with those living in absolute poverty—less than US$1 a day—surviving on just one meal a day if they are lucky. And since the International Fund for Agricultural Development has estimated that the number of food-insecure people in the world will rise by 16 million for every percentage increase in the prices of staple foods, this situation is likely to get worse. The target of MDG 1—to reduce by half the proportion of people who suffer from hunger—is in reverse. There are many contributing factors to the current crisis. The world will have 3 billion more mouths to feed by 2050. Emerging economies are not only eating more, but eating more meat. (It can take up to 9 kg of grain to produce 1 kg of meat.) Crop yields in developing countries have fallen dramatically with diminishing returns for at least a decade. Climate change has disrupted crop growth and water distribution. After the collapse of the US housing market, investors are ploughing trillions of dollars into commodities, such as food and raw materials, resulting in a "commodities super-cycle" where commodity price inflation feeds on itself leading to hugely inflated prices. Global trade distortions, where subsidised produce from rich countries is dumped on the markets of poorer ones, have wrecked the livelihoods of small-scale farmers and decreased local food production. But one of the largest contributors to the crisis is the rise of biofuels—in which potential food crops are burned as fuel in car engines—a situation that the UN Special Rapporteur for the right to food, Jean Ziegler, has called "a crime against humanity". Biofuels once perceived as the green alternative to fuel have recently been discredited. After the agricultural displacement effects of these fuels are taken into account, emissions from biofuels are many times worse than those from fossil fuels. Yet in the drive to make the USA self-sustaining for fuel production, massive ethanol subsidies and millions of acres of American corn have led to a boom in biofuels. American cars now burn enough corn to cover the import needs of 82 food-deficit countries. But thanks to a backlash against biofuels in Europe, the European Union, once committed to a 10% biofuel target by 2020, is now sensibly rethinking its position. As the current food crisis affects every country in the world, it is no surprise that the situation is at the top of the international agenda. The UK Prime Minister wants the world food crisis to be discussed at the G8 Summit in July. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization is planning its crisis meeting for June, while another UN body, the Economic and Social Council, will hold a debate on the crisis next month in New York City. The Bretton Woods siblings, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, have already met to discuss the problem. And the Secretary-General of the UN is considering holding a World Summit to discuss the crisis. With so many different talks planned there is a danger of a disjointed international effort in which the most powerful nations will be allowed to continue to promote protectionist practices. Short-term solutions, such as more humanitarian aid to help meet the World Food Programme's previous commitment to feed 73 million people in 78 countries, will no doubt distract attention from the causes of the world food crisis. For example, the USA and France, among the first to announce their increase in food aid donations, have directly contributed to the crisis by repeatedly failing to stand up to their own farmers by abolishing agricultural subsidies. Food is a complex political issue and quick fixes are not enough. Without a long-term plan that takes a bold stand against ethanol subsidies, the use of biofuels, and the trade distortions that have contributed to the crisis, any action will just be a temporary sticking plaster. Continuous food crises will be the new global norm unless the international community works together to find fair and sustainable solutions to tackle the root causes of global food insecurity.

Montgomery, Alabama - Jose Javier Gomez-Colin, a citizen and national of Mexico who had been working illegally in Russell County, Alabama, was sentenced Thursday by United States District Court Chief Judge W. Keith Watkins to 57-months in federal prison for illegal re-entry into the United States, a felony under federal law, announced George L. Beck, Jr., United States Attorney for the Middle District of Alabama. In October 2011, Gomez pled guilty to being an alien found voluntarily in the Middle District of Alabama without the permission of the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General of the United States after having been removed from the United States once previously.
Gomez, a native and citizen of Mexico, had acquired lawful permanent residency in the United States in 1990. But after a conviction for Child Molestation in 2009 out of Clayton County State Court in Georgia, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) revoked Gomez's status in this county and removed him from the United States in July 2010. Less than eight months later, following an arrest for three counts of public lewdness involving children, Gomez was found in the Russell County area illegally.
Having considered Gomez's extensive criminal history, which includes six convictions for Driving under the Influence, a Public Indecency conviction, a Child Molestation conviction, two prior charges for Child Molestation, an arrest for Battery, and three pending charges for Public Lewdness, as well as Gomez's illegal return to the United States, Chief Judge Watkins sentenced Gomez to 57-months in federal prison. In addition to the prison sentence, Chief Judge Watkins sentenced Gomez to serve 3 years of supervised release. Gomez also faces administrative removal proceedings with the United States Department of Homeland Security, ICE, following his prison sentence.
According to United States Attorney Beck, "A sentence such as the one given to Mr. Gomez shows how important it is to prosecute individuals who illegally return to the United States time and time again and place not only our community, but our children at risk. This office remains committed to prosecuting criminals who repeatedly violate the criminal and immigration laws of the United States and prey on innocent children."
The case was investigated by agents from the Department of Homeland Security, ICE, Office of Enforcement and Removal Operations. Assistant United States Attorney Monica A. Stump prosecuted the case.

I´ve just heard that a Swedish UFO investigator has proven what Rods are.
He says they are just bugs.
He says the exact same thing as skeptics to Rods have said since they were first filmed!
Bah, I should run the UFO community in this country seriosuly.
Bunch of retards.
He just says they are bugs but does not explain how the hell they can fly so fast that you can barely see them. I`ve seen tiny mosquitos fly fast and I still see them.

Indicators of gamete quality and biotechnology related to reproductive

The broad scope of
my research emphasis is on reproductive physiology of vertebrates, specifically
fishes. Species important to fisheries
and aquaculture, such as striped bass, are particularly suited for this and
also serve as valuable model organisms for basic research in biomedicine and
agricultural biotechnology.
propagation of fishes. (Left) Female striped bass broodstock are injected with human chorionic
gonadotropin (hCG)
to induce ovulation. Ovulated eggs are
then manually stripped from the females and fertilized with sperm from striped
bass males. These fertilized eggs are
then incubated in upwelling jars (Right,
Top) and once fry hatch from the eggs, reared in aquaria (Right, Bottom) until they can be stocked
into outdoor earthen ponds.
I have particular interest in aspects of oogenesis
related to deposition and packaging of components in the oocyte
that are required for embryonic growth and development. As examples these include yolk protein
precursors, lipids, and egg envelope precursors, and the proteins and
mechanisms involved in their production, uptake, processing, and
utilization. To study these processes, I
employ a variety of molecular and biochemical techniques to characterize both
the gene transcript and protein products and the regulation thereof.
B.J. Reading, Ph.D.
Oocyte growth and vitellogenesis in
fishes. (Left)
"Oogenesis" is the process by which primordial germ
cells (oocytes) become ova (eggs) that are ready to
be fertilized. In fishes and other
egg-laying vertebrates, once oogonia become committed
to develop as oocytes, they begin to accumulate
neutral lipids (during early secondary growth) and then proceed to vitellogenic growth (vitellogenesis),
during which time yolk precursors called vitellogenins are taken up and
stored within yolk granules in the oocyte. The yolk serves as a nutrient store for
growing embryos and larvae once the eggs have been ovulated and
fertilized. (Right, Top) Induction of vitellogenesis
starts with production of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the
pituitary. FSH stimulates production of estradiol (estrogen) in the ovarian follicles, and estrogen
in turn induces the liver to produce vitellogenins. Vitellogenins are
released into the blood stream and then specifically incorporated into oocytes by receptor-mediated endocytosis. (Right,
Bottom) Circulating vitellogenins exist as homodimers in the blood.
Once taken up by the oocyte, complete vitellogenins are processed into distinct yolk
proteins. The largest yolk protein is lipovitellin which is important nutritional source of amino
acids and polar lipids to support embryonic development. Phosvitin consists
largely of serine residues which act as carriers of phosphorus and calcium and
may be involved in the stabilization of vitellogenin
structure. Two more yolk proteins,
beta-component and C-terminal component, are known to be released from the
C-terminal end of vitellogenin, however, their
physiological functions are unknown. A
shorter, incomplete type of vitellogenin also exists
that only consists of the lipovitellin yolk
proteins. Vitellogenins
are a family of very large particles (400-600kDa in size) and belong to the
lipoprotein superfamily, since they consist of both
lipid and protein components. Vitellogenins contain approximately 20% lipid by weight and
has been generally believed to be a major transporter of oocyte
lipids, the majority of which are structural lipids (polar,
phospholipids). To date, several types
of vitellogenins have been characterized in a number
of fish species and they have been shown to have specific and distinct
nutritive roles during embryogenesis.

Hypothetical models proposed for maternal nutrient transfer into Morone oocytes involving several
different serum lipoproteins and their related receptor and enzyme systems. Following ovulation and during embryogenesis,
the cargo delivered by LDL and VLDL (non-polar lipids: triacylglycerol,
fatty acids, and cholesterol) deposited during oocyte
growth contribute largely to egg buoyancy, cell and organelle membrane
synthesis, and serve as energy sources during late development, whereas cargo
delivered by vitellogenin (polar lipids and protein)
contribute to egg buoyancy, protein synthesis, cell and organelle membrane
synthesis, and serve as energy sources during early and late embryonic
development. Abbreviations are defined

EDM's Ten Best Tracks and Albums of 2012
Flosstradamus ran 2012 trough the trap. |
Lady Gaga went on tour with electro-wunderkind Zedd. Skrillex won three Grammys. Shit, even the American Music Awards created an EDM category.
Of course, this also means a lot of garbage is being produced. But thankfully, there are still loads of artists who take their craft (and the dance floor) seriously.
Let's take the time to look back and celebrate those artists who delivered with monster tracks, EPs, and even full albums. If we don't reward them now, we'll only ever get more cheese.

10. Zedd's "Spectrum"
In 2011, this Russian-German DJ-producer worked on official remixes for pop goddess Lady Gaga and then he joined the megastar for her 2012 tour. But his biggest success to date would definitely be "Spectrum," a progressive and edgy electro-house anthem released June 1 on Interscope. No doubt teenagers will be finding themselves to its massive builds while driving on highways late at night for years to come.
9. Nari & Milani's "Atom"
They're not pop superstars, but this Italian electro duo produced one of the year's biggest hits with dark, driving single "Atom." Chances are, if you're an avid partier, this track's been a highlight of about 60 percent of the DJ sets that got you uhntz-uhntz-ing in 2012.

Yields: 18 cookies
Oven Temp: 350
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 3 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1.75 stick(s) butter
- 1.25 cup(s) sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 large egg yolk
- 3/4 cup(s) buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon(s) freshly grated lemon zest
- 4 cup(s) confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 cup(s) milk
- 3 tablespoon(s) heavy cream
- 2 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- Red no-taste gel food coloring
- To make cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Scrape down the bowl and add eggs and egg yolk one at a time, beating briefly after each addition. Scrape down the bowl again, and turn mixer to low. Add the flour mixture in 3 parts, alternating with the buttermilk in 2 parts. Scrape down the bowl; add vanilla and lemon zest, and mix on low speed for a few more seconds.
- Using an ice cream scoop (about 1/4 cup), drop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets spaced about 3 inches apart (6 cookies per sheet).
- Bake for 17 minutes, rotating sheets between oven racks halfway through, until edges are golden brown and tops spring back when gently touched. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes, then remove cookies and cool on racks.
- To make frosting: In a large bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar, milk, and cream. If mixture is too thick, add a little more milk (by the teaspoon until desired consistency is reached). Pour half of the frosting (about 3/4 cup) into another bowl and add vanilla and red food coloring until desired red color is reached.
- Use an offset spatula to spread red frosting on half of the top of each cookie. Let stand until almost set, 20 minutes. Using a clean spatula, spread white frosting over unfrosted half of each cookie. (If the frosting thickens up during the process, whisk until loose.) Let set completely, about 1 hour.

I hired Big Horn Transmission to remanufacture the transmission on my 2003 Ford Explorer. The vehicle had no leaks before this service was performed. The job was initially completed on December 10, 2010. Immediately after my vehicle was returned, it was leaking transmission fluid profusely. I contacted Larry Thacker with Big Horn who asked me to bring it back in, which I did. They had the vehicle for approximately 2 days and had not contacted me. When I called, Mr. Thacker told me that they had "probably over-filled" the transmission and some fluid was just "venting off." He assured me that there was no more leak. I picked up the vehicle and continued to drive it. Within a week , I again found fluid on my driveway and on my garage floor. I again called Mr. Thacker and told him that it was leaking. He told me to bring it in after the Christmas break. By the time they had reopened after Christmas, the transmission was slipping and shifing hard. Fluid was all over my garage and driveway. I brought the vehicle in again and they had it for 4 days. I took it home and immediately saw that it was still leaking. The following Monday I took my vehicle in to Austin Automotive here in Canon City to look at the situation. They found that the transmission needed a new pump and a new torque converter. In order to replace these items, the transmission had to be removed and resealed. My bill came to $977.42. According to the mechanics at Austin Automotive, these are both items that should have been replaced when doing the original re-build. I contacted Larry Thacker at Big Horn on a Friday and he said that they would "take care of it". A week later, when he had not contacted me, I went in to his establishment and was immediately met with anger. He told that he refused to reimburse me for the supposed work. At one point his assistant took a fighting stance, clinching his fists and raising his voice. When I explained to them that I would be contacting the BBB, his assistant called me a "son of a bi**h" and made demeaning and threatening remarks. They belittled me and members of my family as I left the shop. I had to take them to small claims court which cost me additional time and money.

Comments about FIREPLACE AND AQUARIUM DVD SCREEN SAVERS:
I'm really happy with my Ambient Water DVD. The quality is great, and the aquarium sounds are so relaxing. I put it on while I read on the couch, when the kids are getting to sleep, or when I have to leave my pets home alone. The kids like to sit around making up stories about what the fish are doing, which is neat because TV doesn't usually stimulate their minds like that. They especially love the scene with the frog.
The only way it could be better is if it were in HD or Blu Ray, but then it wouldn't work on all my DVD players, so I'm actually happy it's not in HD.
BONUS: I tried putting this on while I had a party once, and it was great. The men actually socialized instead of camping out around the television.
