"Human Nature"
This Brit newcomer's background in a cappella serves her especially well on this Michael Jackson (bit.ly/Zp4Nl) cover, which is so intimate, listening to it feels like a violation of privacy. Backed by a single electric guitar, Mvula takes the song at a less hurried pace than either the original or the divisive Miles Davis (bit.ly/5F6lT) version. While the performance (bit.ly/1aK9yGj ) is a painless introduction to her own oeuvre (bit.ly/13M9dNj), the newly converted can get a more complete picture by watching the full 46-minute session here: bit.ly/11EMYIv.
"Fever to the Form"
Formerly a member of dark-horse Mercury Prize nominees Portico Quartet (bit.ly/bVv13), this Londoner has left behind that band's jazzy underpinnings and lit out for more conventional singer-songwriter territory. The 6/8 time signature feels like a bridge to his past, but otherwise this shouldn't knock fans of, say, Ed Sheeran too far off stride. (From Fever to the Form EP, bit.ly/12ndX92)
"Towers Down Under"
The last time we encountered a recontextualized version of the surprisingly versatile Men at Work hit it was being amalgamated (http://bit.ly/185fE0u ) with, of all things, Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal." Here, it forms half of an unlikely simultaneous medley with "Towers", and kicks off an entire album of Bon Iver mashups featuring, among others, Florence and The Machine, Lana Del Rey, Icona Pop and Coldplay. (From B.I.M.A., www.b-i-m-a.net)
"Perfect Tourists"
For awhile, this Halifax band's next album looked as though it would be consigned to the same fate as Smile, the Beach Boys album that spent years struggling to emerge from limbo. But now, a mere seven years after he began working on it, Jason Michael MacIsaac — the last remaining original member of this orchestral-pop outfit — is weeks away from seeing it come to fruition. With the help of genre heavyweights Sondre Lerche and the High Lllamas' Sean O'Hagan, along with Maritime luminary Jenn Grant, MacIsaac has created something that, based on this preview, makes its lofty aspirations — Frank Sinatra's overlooked concept album Watertown (bit.ly/PvW1CA) and Van Dyke Parks' Song Cycle (bit.ly/MeV6VG) have been mentioned as touchstones — far from far-fetched. (From Health, out July 30, bit.ly/11zp9FD)
6. TINIE TEMPAH f. 2 CHAINZ
Two years after it was supposed to appear, the sophomore album by one of Britain's most engaging genre-jumpers appears headed for the finish line. If this insistent grime/electro/dubstep hybrid is any indication, the wait will have been worth it. Lyrically, it's little more than a string of rhythmic name-dropping, but somehow Tempah wills it to cohere into something resembling a personal proclamation. (From Demonstration, bit.ly/12g9Ix3)
Q: How many versions of an album that's less than a year old can one artist release? A: One more. When this Brit star's second album came out last fall, it arrived in both regular and "deluxe" iterations, the latter being supersized with six bonus tracks. Not to be outdone, version 3.0, due out next month, comes with seven extra tracks, including this ruthlessly melodic entry that makes the original album's lead single, "Anything Could Happen" (bit.ly/TlLuPG), sound like an outtake. (From Halcyon Days, out Aug. 26, bit.ly/182syzL)
"American Ride"
The line on which this Buffalo survivor sits includes Steve ("Goin' Down to Laurel") Forbert (bit.ly/90EAz), "I'm on Fire"-era Springsteen (bit.ly/6ylDoR), Neil Young in "Four Strong Winds" mode (bit.ly/GSAB1U). In fact, Nile's latest sounds like the sum of all three, which means it'll make you feel like taking a spontaneous week-long road trip, but one that takes place entirely between dusk and dawn, which won't deter you from wearing those sunglasses that make you look brooding. (From American Ride, bit.ly/1171ZRx)
3. THE AIRPLANE f. PENNY AND JEREMY SAVRY
"Heart of Glass"
The work of a four-piece from Paris, this interpretation of Blondie's disco sell-out/subversion (bit.ly/KAZx0u) is so thoroughly reconstructed it almost qualifies as a new song. Along with being transposed into a minor key, it's laden with cascading electric keyboards, liberally applied echo, and multi-layered vocals. The Airplane worked a similar alchemy recently on The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" (bit.ly/15uvMrX), but this latest cover proves that what they do is neither mannerism nor party trick. (bit.ly/10Lq6It)
"Show Your Teeth"
"Lover be warned, I often get low/And when I fall down/I'll pull on the rope that I tied to you." Imagine those morose, casually menacing lyrics set to the week's bounciest pop melody, and you've got an idea of the dichotomy that shoots through the second album by this self-taught Vancouver musician. Fronting a large, agile lineup fleshed out with Wurlitzer, cello and violin, Yip has made the kind of smart, catchy album that could be a dark horse when year-end (and award nominations) roll around. (From Foxtrot, bit.ly/12WYgK7)
1. CHARLES MURDOCH f. OSCAR KEY SUNG
The languorous noise made by rising Brisbane producer Murdoch (soundcloud.com/charlesmurdoch) and Melbourne singer Oscar Thorn approximates what falsetto specialists James Blake or Justin Vernon might sound like if they adopted the hum and skitter of glitch. As popularized by the Tri-Angle label and artists such as oOoOO (bit.ly/c4ktr7) and Balam Acab (bit.ly/df3qlh), the sound is equal parts lush keyboards and clattering percussion. It's also surprisingly accessible. In a kinder world, Murdoch could end up being to glitch as Skrillex was to dubstep. (From Weathered Straight, bit.ly/14JhAdz)
"Trying to Be Cool"
Canada, the directing collective behind this video, is from Barcelona, so there's already a certain twisted incentive for some of us to give this weird, witty creation a chance. Featuring a cast of hundreds, this starts out as a routine performance video before morphing into the kind of clip that appears both impossibly elaborate and defiantly low budget. It also tends to be more interesting than the song it accompanies, which, as OK Go (bit.ly/NTASm) has discovered, can be a bit of a mixed blessing. (bit.ly/12E7t5t)

Nice Sconce
John from Phoenix, AZ – Verified Buyer
We bought two and are very happy with them. The one thing that I would warn folks about is that it needs a special bulb that is not stocked at [...]. I did find the correct bulbs at a specialty bulb store. So I suggest you either order the bulbs with the purchase or order the light and go shopping for the bulbs while the sconce is being shipped.
OUR SKU # FCL1806Ashton 2 Light Wall Sconce with Glass Diffuser is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: F5416N1

What direction should the window face?
I have a house plant book that categories plants according to whether they need "full sun," "semi-sun," "semi-shade," or "shade."
Full sun is an area receiving at least 5 hours of direct sunlight; semi-sun receives only a couple of hours of direct sun in the winter; semi-shade receives no direct sun light but receives a substantial amount of indirect light filtered through sheer curtains or trees; and shde recieves no direct sunlight and is somewhat dark during the day regardless which direction the window faces.
How does which direction (i.e., north, east, south, west) that a window faces impact a house plant? Do certain plants need a window that faces a certain direction or do all plants have the same directional preference?
I am in a New York like climate, with little or no direct sun light at any time of day during the almost exclusively overcast days during the winter season, so direct sun light is not an option.
Full sun = South facing window
Anything you would want to bloom, or is usually a tree or shrub, most cacti, herbs, variegated plants, some orchids, and most flowering tropicals would fall under this class
semi-sun = West
Plants which need more warmth but a little less light, cacti, succulents, vines like hoyas, variegated or colored aroids, & most orchids
Semi-shade = East
Plants like Philodendron or pothos, and other solid green aroids, orchids which like cooler temps
Shade = North
ferns, moss, lichen
Keep in mind when they say it can tolerate low light, this does not mean that low light is what's best for it, by no means is this a prescription, but maybe a helpful guide. Do keep in mind that light dimishes by 1/2-1/4 for ever foot away from a window. So a plant sitting a few feet from a south facing window may not be getting as much light as one on a windowsill in a north window. The more light you can give your plants though, the happier they will be.
In our hemisphere, insolation from the S is the strongest, follwed by W,E, and N in order. Yes, plants should be sited according to their preferences.
You should learn about your plants from more than just one source, because there is so often quite a bit of disagreement between them. I prefer university-based internet sites but I have a bunch of books, too.
What Rhizo and Mentha said.
But, quite honestly, if someone made me choose one exposure exclusively for growing houseplants, never allowing me to grow in any other window again, I'd choose East. I'd probably have to eliminate several succulents, and a few flowering houseplants from my repertoire, but most of the plants I've grown and loved over the years do fantastically well placed directly in east windows. (To disagree with Mentha, [just a little] I've found that my Hoya carnosa couldn't be happier, and most variegates and purple-leaved plants do fine. Multi-colored variegates like crotons, and red leaved plants, like Cordylines and Iresines, I do agree, need a stronger exposure.) In the case of some low light plants, a couple of feet away or slightly to the side of the east windows is also quite good.
Guest, I'm sure you can appreciate the countless manner which light can be mastered to fit any situation.
Light from any exposure can be questioned by how it is received by the plant. i.e. a tree, that has open canopy, allows more light than a tree with a compact growth of leaves.
Yet, such light can be received from the best source.
I've never heard much difference given "partial sun" as opposed to "partial shade"....they are one and the same thing.
"Partial" leaves the question up in the air about how partial is meant by the term.
A rosebush is recommended to be given "full" sun....and that be 8 hours. The best sun for roses comes from the south or western exposures. The plant may though do just as well given 6 hours...if the light is strong.
The "eastern" exposure is referred to as the "cool" sun...the "morning" sun....and plants that do well in "full" often do "almost" as well in east facing sunlight...with the consideration that barriers to its fullness can directly work its effectiveness.
In general, a northern exposure is not a reliable sun..yet some plants, not needing such strong light, can do somewhat well. Most plants that are situated in a northern light do not flower as well, nor do they put out such strong growth as well.
You can always put something in between a source of light and where you wish it to reach. Trees and other plants, overhangs of buildings, fences or gazebos, tables or chairs, anything and everything that might influence how much light is given an area, can decide on what exposure a plant should be given.
Put a rose bush behind a compact canopy of tree, in a western exposure, and the plant may well not flower.
Thank you everyone! This is fantastic and really clarifies this perfectly. Thanks.
Were you saying that in Alabama a south-facing window would be considered shade? In other words, the explanation provided by Mentha would be opposite for someone in the southern United States? Thanks.
I actually think of "partial" to mean "mostly." So partial sun would be mostly sun with just a bit of shade during part of the day (maybe a wall or tree obstructs the sun for just a bit). And partial shade would have shade for most of the day. I've never thought of them as the same thing.
Is that how others feel about it?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Emterra, city both dirty in garbage mess
Garbage is messy. Everyone knows that. But if you're a municipal politician, you simply cannot afford to let the mess get out of control, especially when it comes to garbage collection.
Winnipeg city council is learning just how painful it can be when someone messes up on a messy job. The transition to a new private contractor collecting garbage from new rolling bins has been an unmitigated failure. And that's putting it mildly.
For most of the last month, garbage collection has been days behind schedule. Homeowners have seen recycling collected on one day, and then several days go by before normal refuse and yard waste is collected. Thankfully, someone had the foresight to roll out the new system during a chilly October. Had it been July, this could have been one incredibly stinky mess.
It's getting better, but it's still a long way off from being a well-oiled machine. That means it's time to start thinking about who or what is to blame for this garbage mess.
Emterra, the private contractor that not only picks up our refuse but also operates a sorting and recycling plant, must take the lion's share of the blame. Emterra is a national garbage contractor, with quite a roster of engagements with contractors in British Columbia and Ontario. Although every municipality is slightly different in terms of garbage-collection needs, a company with Emterra's experience should be able to better judge the number of trucks and employees it needs to collect our trash in a timely fashion.
Given the fact we've all agreed to organize our trash -- with regular trash in the black bins and recyclables in the blue bins -- you might guess it would take less time than when we just put out whatever we wanted in whatever we could find. You would think.
Emterra has had these troubles before. In B.C., Emterra lost contracts after it could not deliver timely collection. However, it deserves to be said the Victoria-based company has delivered on time and on budget in far more communities than it has failed.
The city itself also bears some responsibility here, although you wouldn't know that from listening to Mayor Sam Katz over the last week. With councillors straining under the weight of constituent phone messages and emails complaining about the pokey garbage collection, Katz went on the offensive to make sure everyone knew Emterra was the main culprit.
A few days into the garbage mess, Katz turned all attention to the municipal contractor. "This is an issue where a new company won a bid, competing with others, and they obviously were not set on Day 1 to get the job done," Katz said.
The mayor's analysis is essentially sound; it appears patently clear Emterra did not have the trucks and human resources in place to manage the new system. However, one must also wonder where the city's own people were when Emterra was prepping for its work. This was, after all, a contractor who won a fair bidding process in which all of the details of Emterra's preparation and resources were made available to city officials. Did no one at the city have any idea resources were not in place to do collection in a timely manner?
One of the more worrisome aspects of this story is a directive from the city that prevents Emterra from talking with the media. That could have been a knee-jerk reaction by someone in the city who was already worried about the rising tide of public complaints. We must also leave open the possibility the city itself was somehow culpable in the screw-up.
In any great logistical challenge, unforeseen factors can derail even the best-laid plans. In fairness to Emterra, we really should have had a chance to find out from the contractor itself why the rollout of the new system was so bad.
The city fought a landmark battle with its unions to take garbage collection private. Its officials were at the table (we assume) with eyes and ears wide open, listening to pitches from private contractors who aspired to collect and dispose of Winnipeg's refuse. It is simply unacceptable for the city to act shocked when that carefully considered, meticulously selected contractor falls flat on its face.
Emterra's failure in these early days of a new garbage-collection system was the city's failure as well. We'd all benefit from a full airing of exactly how, working in tandem, they both let Winnipeggers down.

The lower price makes Apple TV slightly more competitive with the likes of Amazon Fire TV, Google Chromecast and Roku, among others.
Apple may be running out of ideas. It reinvented the smartphone, the tablet, and most recently the wearable. What next, a car? A smart TV would make more sense first.
As we look at how software will be evolving, traditional PC applications and mobile apps have some substantial differences, key among them the depth and flexibility traditional applications offer that are often an anathema to mobile users.
Apple doesn't attend the CES, but was in the news this week. Apple offers an unlocked iPhone, a theory behind the buggy software of late, and a CEO predicts Apple Watch will be a killer.

X-Ray Spectroscopic Determination of Columbium and Tantalum in Rare-Earth Ores
Volume 8, Number 1 (Feb. 1954) Page 24-28
Mortimore, D.M.; Romans, P.A.; Tews, J.L.
A method is presented in this paper for the analysis of columbium and tantalum in monazite or similar ores. This method involves the use of x-ray spectroscopic techniques employing the latest instrumentation.The intensity of the columbium and tantalum spectra is calculated and related to corresponding zirconium and hafnium spectra as internal standards. These intensity ratios are then converted to concentrations by the use of typical working curves. The lower concentration limit is 0.05 percent for columbium and 0.2 percent for tantalum, and the standard deviation is approximately 5 percent at concentrations of 2 percent of either element. Single determinations can be made in 40 minutes.

I know that people regularly post various "did I ruin my beer?" threads here. This is sort of another one, but I suspect it is a little different than most. When I was brewing last night, the lid fell off my fermcap bottle and about 1/2 the bottle went in the wort. Has anyone done anything like this, and how did it turn out?
"Give a man a beer, and he will waste an hour. Teach a man to brew, and he will waste a lifetime!" Bill Owen
The same thing happened to me, along with the eye dropper. Beer turned out fine, as I imagine all of the silicone stuff just sinks to the bottom with the trub.
I would contact the mfg just to be safe on that one. http://www.brewing-solutions.com/contact_form.php
Here's a thread that has raised a lot of questions about its useage. http://hbd.org/discus/messages/50162...tml?1304008514
This happened to me last night.. any updates on safety and taste imparted by adding almost a full bottle to a five galling carboy? I wish they would make the droplets work better, maybe then I wouldn't have squeezed so hard.
Wow, thx for that article RCCOLA
Looks like the federal limit is 10ppm regarding dimethylpolysiloxane
2 drops of fermcap would yeild close to 10ppm
....*tosses fermcap-s in garbage*
2 drops of fermcap-s to what volume will yield 10 PPM? To just say 2 drops is misleading. The health hazard claims are totally unsupported by testing it evidence.
On the good side, fermcap is completely metabolized by the yeast. I believe throwing out the entire batch may be alarmist and overkill. However, this is only my opinion, and what I would likely do. Gather ALL of the facts prior to making your final decision.
Primary : American Cream Ale with apricot extract
Bottled:American Wheat Beer
Kegged: N/A
Around the bend: suggestions?
I don't think that stuff is soluble in the beer. I believe it settles out with the trub.
Don't eat the trub and you're OK.

Suzuki's super mini Concept S2
By Mike Hanlon
September 29, 2003
Tuesday September 30, 2003
The super mini Concept S2 four-seater convertible is Suzuki's latest demonstration of what to expect from the next generation of sporty, powerful compact vehicles. Fitted with a light 1.6L DOHC aluminium engine (4 cylinder 16 valve) and a sequential six speed gearbox, the S2's advanced systems include an on screen character which serves as a virtual navigator and the ability to display real time weather information for the road ahead - so you wont get caught with the top-down if conditions take an unexpected turn.
Unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor show during September, the S2 is the successor to the Concept S and shares its chunky character, unique body shape and "wrap around window" design that hides the front pillars from view.
The "Advanced Navigation System" system allows for vehicle to vehicle mutual communication and as well as the central display screen, an LCD monitor displays a standard analogue tachometer during normal operation and animated information such as warnings and malfunction notices in the event of an emergency.
The convertible function of the vehicle is comprised of a three-part rotating and retracting roof structure - a 2 piece roof front, a roof rear and a rear window - each of which rotates by electric motor and retracts into the rear luggage compartment.
A blue design motif has even been applied to the inside roof lining to promote a feeling of "blue skies overhead" when the roof is closed.
Both Concept S vehicles are study models for a future Suzuki small car. Stay tuned to www.Gizmo.com.au for updates.Share

Frontier of Flight Museum
While most air-and-space museums house aircraft retired after extensive service, the centerpiece of the collection at the Frontiers of Flight Museum has a flight record that's hard to match: 163 consecutive orbits around Earth. Between October 11 and 22, 1968, the Apollo 7 command module rocketed around the globe at 17,280 miles per hour, chalking up a healthy number of orbits before splashing into the Atlantic and, eventually, coming to its current residence on the museum floor. Displayed with its hatch open for visitors to peep inside at its instrument-covered panels, the module sits alongside thousands of artifacts from the various golden ages of aeronautic exploration, including salvage from the infamous Hindenburg airship and more than 30 vintage aircraft. The family-friendly museum welcomes younger visitors with the Children's Discovery Area and a "living history" series featuring aviation icons such as Amelia Earhart and Orville Wright.

Egypt boils over: Harvard prof. E. Roger Owen explains how unrest rolled out, and where it may lead
The tension and unrest that arose in Egypt last month after the army ousted democratically elected President Mohamed Morsi exploded this week, with hundreds of people killed as security forces broke up camps of protesters demanding Morsi's return.The widening violence raised questions about the democratic future of a key American ally and an important partner in Middle East peace efforts, and also cast a shadow over the durability of changes wrought in the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings.To better understand what's going on in Egypt, Gazette staff writer Alvin Powell spoke with Harvard's E. Roger Owen, A. J. Meyer Professor of Middle East History Emeritus, about the fighting and about what Egypt's future might hold.GAZETTE: What is at the roots of the clashes going on in Egypt today?OWEN: Well, I think there are two roots. One is a very long antipathy—or fight to the death—between the army and the Muslim Brothers. Most of the time since the [Gamal Abdel] Nasser revolution of 1952, the army has been involved in putting Muslim Brothers in jail. So there's no love lost between them.

He also pointed to the work of Afsaneh Najmabadi, Nancy Cott, and Laurel Thatcher Ulrich as an example of Harvard's pre-existing strength in the field of gender and sexuality studies.Historian Niall Ferguson, in an attempt to blunt criticism of his recent controversial remarks about John Maynard Keynes's sexuality, spoke on Monday to students at a lunchtime panel at the Harvard College Women's Center.

James T. Kloppenberg is the Charles Warren Professor of American History at Harvard University. He has a Ph.D. in History and Humanities from Stanford and has held fellowships from the Danforth, Whiting, and Guggenheim foundations, the American Council of Learned Societies, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. His 2010 book Reading Obama: Dreams, Hope, and the American Political Tradition explores Obama's political philosophy and commitment to democratic deliberation.The election of 2012 is behind us. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have completed their last campaigns and given their final victory and concession speeches.It is time to reflect on the persistent themes that characterized the campaign and locate the election in relation to the parties' trajectories in recent years. Identifying those themes might explain, better than pundits' fascination with demography or with politics as a game of imagery and maneuver, the reasons why the president was reelected by a larger margin than many analysts predicted.

The recently launched RAREculture offers limited-edition home products perfect for the one-of-a-kind obsessed. Susan Kroll, the founder and CEO of the site, which carries a selection of jewelry and fashion as well as home items, says that unlike other online shops, she's determined to create an arena where clients can "meet" relatively unknown artists through videos that she is creating with each artist. "I want to offer a real understanding of what goes into making these products, so that consumers can really understand the stories behind them," she says. The site's offerings range from highly practical pieces, like serving platters and armchairs, to the purely whimsical, such as a crystal foosball table. "Some of traditions that go into making these pieces might start to die if people don't support them," Kroll says. She works with a team of advisors to scoure the globe for lesser-known design talents like Ambience Studios, a firm made up of a pair of female El Salvadoran architects who create origami-like wood tables and lighting. Kroll focuses on vendors that are under-represented in the marketplace and could very well evolve into the design stars of tomorrow. "There are some amazingly talented designers in this country who'd otherwise have to go to a million craft shows just to sell three pieces," says Kroll. "RAREculture provides a forum for them; where their artistry can be valued and ultimately sold." Prices range as widely as the items, with small ceramic boxes by artist Candone Wharton starting at under $50, to KGB Ltd.'s handmade storage, seating and tables, which can reach five-figure territory.

I just looked at all the monikers on this thread. I'm sure none of these names are real. In some folks world this would be obviously wrong, but they're doing it too ? Hmmmmm can you say hypocrites ? You're lying by using a moniker. You advocate putting the real gift givers name on the presents, but post opinions using a false name ? Please explain why this isn't wrong. Lying to other adults is ok
#150 Mar 2, 2011
Is that a fact ? What`s wrong now hypocrite? Nobody will divulge personal information so you can do a better job of slandering them?
How many different"monikers" are you using? If you are so honest put YOUR real name on here, so the local community can be made aware of your bigoted remarks, and anti-social rhetoric.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
In the recent presidential election, the two U.S. states of Colorado and Washington legalized recreational marijuana use to adults over the age of 21. While the wording of these new laws will come under federal scrutiny - it is still a federal offense to grow, sell and use marijuana in the U.S., the nation of Mexico is eying the latest developments with great interest. Among the world's biggest supplier of marijuana, will the U.S.A.'s southern neighbor gain - or lose with the easy availability of pot?

Published in Americas
Keywords: Marijuana, legalization, Mexico, U.S., drug war
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Under Mexican President Felipe Calderon, Mexico embarked on a disastrous "war on drugs" that used its military to stem the flow of marijuana and cocaine into the United States. Thousands of people - many of them unarmed, uninvolved civilians being killed in a deadly crossfire engaged between agents and dealers. On the other hand - with profits from marijuana pumping illicit money into the Mexican economy, will there also be an economic backlash as well?
"Legalization doesn't solve the problem, because cocaine generates the biggest profits," Jorge Javier Romero, a professor at the department of politics and culture in the Autonomous Metropolitan University in Mexico City says. "It has to be approached as a foreign policy issue, because Mexico doesn't have a drug use problem - it's the United States that has a drug abuse problem."
According to the report, "Si los vecinos legalizan" (If the neighbors legalize), produced by Alejandro Hope and Eduardo Clark of the non-governmental Mexican Institute for Competitiveness, approximately 30 million of the United States' 312 million inhabitants use a total of 3,700 tons of marijuana a year, which has a retail value of $15 to $30 billion,.
Of the marijuana consumed in the U.S., 40 to 67 per cent comes from Mexico, where drug cartels take in some $2 billion a year from trafficking the drug, which is mainly grown in western and southern states.
During President Calderon's deadly war on drugs, at least 90,000 people were killed, 10,000 went missing and 250,000 were forced to flee their homes, according to the estimates of human rights groups.
The legalization of drugs in the United States "would be the most significant structural clash that drug trafficking has experienced in a generation . and would transform the terms of the debate on drugs," the IMCO study says.
John Walsh, the drug policy expert at the Washington Office on Latin America, states the issue plainly in his article, "Taking the Initiative." "Even if only one U.S. state were to approve legalization, the decision would reverberate throughout the hemisphere, where the drug policy debate has opened up dramatically."
Mexican president-elect Enrique Pe�a, of the opposition Institutional Revolutionary Party has talked about a change in law enforcement strategies, but has not given any details.
According to the IMCO report, the legalization of marijuana in the U.S. would lead to an entirely different set of problems - one where marijuana, along with other drugs, are shipped FROM the U.S. into Mexico.
The IMCO report also adds that the Mexican government should not legalize the production and sale of marijuana until US federal laws on the matter have been clearly defined.

Well i guess the Bush GOP will just have to disban
the Iowa GOP if they show true to their yellow cowardly color. Great job of leadership in Iowa, let the rest of the Nation take note.
inch by inch we are winning =D
The DP is proof that the grassroots support for Ron Paul and his peaceful message of individual liberty is large, real, and not going away!
Love it!
This is huge, and this is what we need to be doing on a state by state basis. The establishment ain't gonna just roll over though. It will be interesting to see how the national GOP reacts to this...
Thank you Iowa.
I went all out for the Ames straw poll. and I know many others did too. only to be robbed by a bimbo handing out free randy travis tickets if they voted for her. and even then it was only by 150 freaking votes.
I simply cannot express how this makes me feel.
In your face GOP cretins!
In your face GOP cretins!
I just LOVE posts like this. 13 to 5 YEAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Makes me so very very happy!!! CONGRATS to ALL in Iowa!!!!
Will this matter?
Can't the national GOP just come in and install their own party operation?
Remember, the big parties exist to satisfy big money interests. As long as most the country looks to government as savior, the big money will win.
Education is everything.
Let them do their worst. This
Let them do their worst. This is the best part of our movement...the inevitable blowback when they do their shenanigans. We are used to this nightmare, but they are shocked when they find out what happens when they do their usual tricks.
Does it matter?
We're winning elections man HELL YES IT MATTERS!
Can't they just fire them? Let them, go ahead make our day
Just like the firing of Amash ignited a fire in this movement that move would start the destruction of the GOP and would definitely be Iowa MSM news if not national MSM news.

2014 & 2016
I look forward to the off year elections to see where the nominations are coming from. I look forward to seeing what is going to happen when the Ron Paul people outnumber the establishment robatoids. I would campaign and work just as hard in 2016 for Ron Paul if he wanted to set the record on being the oldest president in history. I will support all Ron Paul people in their campaigns before them as much as this meager human can. Good luck people. I have been a Ron Paul type before I ever knew he existed and will be till I die. If the RNC won't wake up then replace them with those who are awake and aware.
Yes, Yes, YES!!!!!!
Yee Haw!!!!!!!!
Great news.
We certainly need it.
I try to change people every day. Do You?

and they will all be voting for President Rand Paul in 2016.
Unless Ron runs again- of course.
"OH NO! He has a SON?" Neoconservatives and Liberals EVERYWHERE!
Rand Paul 2016
*RonPaul Facebook* was where I heard of this GREAT news first :-)
if nothing else, we still fracture the republican party from
within and destroy it. at best we change the republican party, at worst we will fracture it and create a political vacuum, and this will give rise and pave the way for new political parties or so-called third parties to solidify much more easily--yes, all by the hands of those you so-called third party die-hard proponent like to bash against, saying 'we shouldn't play on their home field', 'trying to change republicans are pointless' blah blah. win or lose, you still benefit from other people's hard work. perhaps couch potatoes should refrain from internet activism as well
How many states GOP
How many states GOP leadership has gone "liberty" now? Anyone have a headcount?
Isn't Iowa the only one?To
Isn't Iowa the only one?
To have control we have to have more than just the officers, it needs to be the majority of the state executive committee?
States have different party rules. In New York state the county chairs are the state executive committee, who then elects the state chair and officers.
I said I would donate $20 to the IAGOP if....
...we ended up in control of the Exec Comm and Central Comm.
So where do we stand? Do we control those two committees?
If so, get ready for some donations!
But need to know. Thanks.
The short answer is yes, RP people now control both committees.
AJ Spiker received a clear majority of SCC member votes (13-5) to be Chairman; this signifies SCC support for notable RP supporters.
Executive officers
The Republican Party of Iowa's State Central Committee also consists of several executive officers including: Chairman, Co-Chairman, State Finance Chair, and State Co-Finance Chair. These executive members do not need to be seated members of the state central committee. These members also do not have a vote on standard proceeding. The State Chairman may vote only in the case of a tie or to create a tie during a meeting which he is presiding over. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_of_Iowa
The Executive Committee is 4 individuals (see below), 3 of whom are confirmed RP supporters.
- AJ Spiker (Chairman)
- David Fischer (Co-Chairman)
- Drew Ivers (State Finance Chair)

OK. $$$ on the way!
Thank you for the contextual info. That's good enough for me. Just a hint though: It's a little odd coming from a handle named "Canada4RonPaul". Nothing personal. Still sending $ because the info seems solid. Just saying. Would have like to have heard from someone in the IAGOP on this site.
