Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
President Calderon and the Mexican people are engaged in a
relentless conflict with Mexico's drug cartels. In 2008 the
number of casualties resulting from the complex fight climbed into
the thousands and has shaken Mexican public confidence. Under
President Calderon's leadership, Mexico's military and law
enforcement bodies are heavily engaged in the battle while
undergoing a process of reform and modernization. The
cross-border implications of the fight against the cartels are
impacting trade, investment climate, and border security.
Owing to the illicit drug trade out of Mexico, the Office of
National Drug Control Policy recently concluded "Mexican drug
trafficking organizations represent the greatest organized crime
threat to the U.S." At the same time arms, bulk cash, and
precursor chemicals flow southward into Mexico. The Merida
Initiative, launched by the Bush Administration, is providing $1.5
billion in counter-drug assistance to Mexico, Central America, and
parts of the Caribbean. With the arrival of the Obama
Administration, however, uncertain agendas, competing strategies,
and potential policy rifts in Washington could alter or weaken the
U.S. counter-drug and law enforcement response and open a dangerous
divide with Mexico.

do u want to tell me about it?
It is nothing that is really revealing, There were a lot of slaves and there was a "process" that is pretty indescribable. Earth was a lot different then.
I should say this memory could just be bullshit, but I had it before I knew anything about Ea and Enlil and use to draw pictures of it. It fits, thats all I really feel like saying.
I don't necessarily believe this, but I have a feeling there is a reason I remember.
Anonymous Coward 18069765
wow, this sounds pretty incredible. what about this 'process'? if you feel like talking about it, I sure would like to get some detail about this..
No not really, sorry. Partially because it could be a false association and I don't want to lead you along to crazy town. I do post a lot of stuff on here jokingly but I don't joke about something like this.
If it is "reincarnation" of some sort there is a reason most people do not remember. If it was real it was a LONG time ago. I don't really know anything that will be "beneficial" for you.
I recommend this thread, there are a few interesting posts about Atlantis (some are just delusional):
Thread: To any reincarnated Atlantean souls here on GLP
A few years ago I read somewhere on the internet about a Roman Senator that told of a similar account at a dinner. I haven't been able to find it since, and cannot remember his name. His name doesn't stick out in history. It made the hair stand up on my neck and is the only reason I give the memory and credence... and if that story is real, well then...

New Book 'Hector Trogg's Perfect World' is Released
Lincolnshire, UK
While most kids can only daydream about mysterious adventures and secret locations, the main character in Paul Booth's new book 'Hector Trogg's Perfect World' finds himself caught up in a whirlwind of intrigue and on the run with his sister Kate and their parents-from a formidable enemy. Booth's Hector Trogg is a mischievous eleven-year-old boy who, in the face of danger, takes great pleasure in causing almost as much trouble as the bad guys who want to destroy him and his family.
After an accident that destroys their parents' car, Hector and Kate are informed that it was a deliberate act of attempted murder. The authorities explain that Hector and Kate have been left a substantial inheritance from a distant relative named Irvine Deeds. They speculate that it is the greedy, disgruntled closer relatives of Mr. Deeds who are trying to kill Hector and Kate in an attempt to get their hands on the money.
Hector and his family embark on a fast-paced journey as they try to stay ahead of the evil assassin Sludge, who is relentless in his pursuit of them. They are whisked away to different locations-including a chateau in France, a French army camp and an English estate-in an attempt to stay one step ahead of their pursuer. With the help of the French Special Forces, the Troggs narrowly escape death several times. As the plot twists, the real culprit behind the chase is uncovered. Hector and the rest of the Troggs go into hiding, and with the help of their protectors, design a plan to lure Sludge into their trap.
A typical eleven-year old boy, Hector ignores danger and instead seizes the opportunity to fly a plane, fire ammo from an armored tank and take down a few bad guys along the way. When he's not fighting the enemy, Hector wreaks havoc and stirs up trouble to keep himself amused. With his sister Kate, he enlists the help of Bandit the dog and Otto the cat in pulling off shenanigans and then trying to cover up his misdeeds. "At the book's heart is a character who means well but causes chaos," says Booth.
'Hector Trogg' is action-packed and full of eccentric characters and high-spirited comic events. The dynamic between brother and sister is well-developed, and their enthusiasm, energy and youthful curiosity drive the story forward. The plot twists and turns, culminating in an edge-of-your-seat battle with the bad guys, and delivering an unlikely hero and a number of good jokes along the way.
'Hector Trogg's Perfect World' is published in eBook and audiobook format by eBookIt.com and is now available at popular online retailers including Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com and Apple's iBookstore.

We have all had an argument with our significant other before. When they happen in public though they can be a bit more frustrating.It is irritating to most when there are people you do not know staring and listening to your argument. Most of though however have a calm enough demeanor about ourselves that we can calm down and just talk about it later while going on about whatever business it was that we were attending to. Jim Dondero has learned that this was not the case recently in La Brea. On Sunday afternoon after an argument at a nearby gas station a lady began walking down the street. Her angry counterpart sped at her and in what is believed to be an attempt to hit her with the SUV the man managed to run through the building of the East India Grill. Luckily noone was hurt in the incident.Thanks to one bystander you can see a picture here. No arrests have been made at this time as the individual was not present on scene when police officials arrived on scene.
Kraft announced both a regular and special dividend today.
The payment of both dividends is contingent on the completion of the proposed $46 billion merger between Kraft and Heinz.
If the merger is completed after July 27, 2015, the regular dividend of $0.55 per share will be paid out to shareholders of Kraft on July 30th.When the merger is finalized a special cash dividend of $16.50 per share will be issued to the shareholders of Kraft. If the merger does not go through the cash dividend will not be paid. Kraft shareholders will own 1 share of the combined company for each share of Kraft that they hold. After the merger, Kraft shareholders will own 49% of the combined company.
Heinz was brought private a few years ago by Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway and a Brazilian investment firm, 3L, which has a history of turning around brands by cutting costs and improving profits. 3L will have a strong role in running the combined company that controls eight brands that have sales over $1 billion annually. The combined company will have $28 billion in annual sales.
The merger is pending the approval of shareholders, though the agreement has been approved by the board of directors of both companies. Madison Street Capital found this pretty interesting. In addition, there are some regulatory thresholds to clear though the transaction has been approved in Canada. The deal is expected to be approved and finalized in 2015.
June 29Big Food is at War
Nestle, Kraft, Campbell's, and numerous other processed food companies have lost more than 4 billion dollars in market shares in the 2014 fiscal year. Many of these companies know that there is a huge shift in the food industry when it comes to consumer habits and the way consumers look at food. Consumers have taken a huge liking to buying fresh and organic produce and protein based products. Supermarkets are designed to place these items on the outskirts of the map of the grocery store. Processed food companies can find their food in the middle aisles of the store where they share the shelves with other companies. If consumers are staying on the outskirts of the store in order to get healthier and more organic food, the processed food companies aren't even getting a chance to market their products to consumers. Instead, these larder food companies are looking to purchase the smaller companies that they are finding themselves in competition with. Last year, the Campbell's soup company bought an extremely small, but very profitable Bolthouse Farms company.
Bolthouse Farms makes and manufactures real fruit and vegetable drinks. The production of the fruit juices lets the company set up shop on the outskirts of the store. If people buy the Bolthouse Farm juices it gives Campbell's a better stance and presence in the food industry as opposed to only selling processed soups and food. Other companies have been advised to follow the same game plan if they want to stay up to par with the Big Food industry. That is why Crystal Hunt is paying close attention to it all on Facebook.
June 24Can That Burger Cause You Harm?
Fast food has long been the brunt of professionals and experts who believe that added chemicals in fast food are slowly causing serious harm to the body. Many warnings have suggested that people should move away from the fast food restaurants that they know and love and eat in a healthier manner.
It seems from a new study that fast food has very high contents of trans fats, or tans fatty acids. It is these fats that tend to hinder our emotional responses and cause many to feel depressed and blue. When combined with research into the level of trans fats that people had in their system, it seemed that those with higher levels had more difficulty controlling their emotions.
Individuals with lower trans fats in their system tended to be able to control their emotional responses better says CipherCloud in this article. these individuals also possessed a more positive outlook on life and their general well being, and did not suffer from feelings of depression as often.
Aggression is also an outcome of consuming too many trans fats. People with higher levels tended to act out in a more aggressive manner than those who had lower levels. While these psychological findings are relatively new, the older findings into trans fats still stands. those who consume more of these fats tend to have a higher risk of heart problems and strokes, and also have higher cholesterol levels.
With much publicity regarding artificial colors and flavors in processed foods, General Mills, a leading manufacturer of processed foods, such as breakfast cereals has taken an aggressive stance towards the eradication of such harmful substances to individuals.
Here's reason to applaud General Mills stance on artificial colors and flavorings. Approximately five years ago, research scientists discovered that artificial colors No. 5 and 6, could possibly trigger the onset of Attention Deficit Disorder in youngsters. Sweden, and Norway have been proactive in the prohibition of the use of artificial colors, and the European Union has mandated that any products containing artificial colors, and flavorings, must contain a warning label stating, "May have an inauspicious outcome on activity and courtesy in children."
As for the favorite of kids worldwide, Macaroni and Cheese, Kraft will remove all artificial colors, and preservatives, and replace them with natural ingredients, such as turmeric, paprika, and annatto, which are orange and red in color appearance says Gianfrancesco Genoso. This is welcomed news, for the No. 6 coloring has benzidine, and 4-amino-biphenyl, which are confirmed human carcinogens. The replacements take effect starting in January 2016.
Many people claim it's better than sex. Not sure about that, but it's sure better for you afterwards than lighting up a cigarette and it just many prevent you from having a post-coital heart attack or stroke.
Talking about chocolate and the recent findings scientists have made regarding its health benefiting properties. New research has found that both dark chocolate and its more popular cousin, milk chocolate, reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes when eaten every day.
Just two bars of your choice of chocolate will do the trick. Not two entire bars of chocolate candy, but two bars the size of two segments of a Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar.
If only medicinal foods tasted as good as chocolate, we would be a much healthier society.
The research was conducted at the University of Aberdeen and charted the snacking habits of over 20,000 people during the course of 12 years. Of those 20,000+ people, those who snacked on 100g (about one ounce) of chocolate every day were 25% les likely to have a heart attack and 23% less likely to have a stroke during the 12 years of research.
Dark chocolate has always been recommended as a healthy snack (in moderation) for heart health, and the flavonoid content was the reason it was recommended over milk chocolate say my friends at the mobile phone company Freedompop. These recent findings have researchers looking at other compounds in chocolate, like the calcium and fatty acids found in milk chocolate that may improve cardiovascular health.
June 16Japan Has Ramen Spa Baths Now
With the increase of interest in people finding ways to improve their health through many natural means, it is no surprise that a spa in Japan has come to the idea that soaking in pork broth is the new way to go. Many Americans have experimented with bathing in such liquids like red wine, beef broth, salt baths, but this is taking it to an all new level. According to an article found on reddit and written by Grub Street, the Yunessan Spa House that is located in Hakone, Japan has made large Jacuzzi sized tubs for locals to soak in and it even comes with a bunch of noodles. Everyone has an idea that Japan does the most unusual cultural things, and this is just one more to add to the list. My buddy over there, Ricardo Tosto, said he witnessed the ramen filled jacuzzi but opted out of jumping in. Ricardo did take some pics that he posted on his blog: Leite, Tosto e Barros informa.
I think that even though it sounds really odd, it might be kind of fun to soak in the broth for a day. You never know what the health benefits could be, but at the very least it wouldn't be harmful in any fashion. Who knows, it could even be a little fun. It will be interesting to see if this trend spreads to other corners of the globe. Although it could also take form in other substances such as beer, soup, or maybe some kind of spring water. In any case, I think the Japanese are on to something interesting.
India's safety regulator banned Nestle's Maggi noodles claiming they are hazardous and unsafe. Nestle says it will destroy $50 million worth of the instant noodles to comply with the food safety laws even though they dispute the ban. Nestle has started to withdraw the Maggi noodle from stores earlier this month when it was brought to their attention it contained higher than allowed levels of lead in some packages.
They state this removal will involve taking stock off both shelves and from storerooms. Sam Tabar (prnewswire.com) has read that a statement made by Nestle says it will be extremely expensive to remove this product as they will have to remove it from the market and then transport to a destruction point. They have not estimated the costs at this time.
In the high court in Mumbai, Nestle is challenging the ban of India's safety laws. Paul Bulcke, Nestles' global chief executive has asked to see the results of the tests done in India. He has also initiated testing to be done in several states for the chemical monosodium glutamate. Bulcke is promising consumers the Maggi noodle will return to shelves soon.
Maggi noodles arrived in India in 1983 and they were instantly a favorite. They are able to be cooked in two minutes and for a country of people raised on slow cooked food the noodles quickly became a fashion. Advertising of the instant noodles showed a 'Maggi Mom' being able to juggle working and maintaining her responsibilities at home.
Bernardo Chua is a name in business that is very beneficial to know. Mr. Chua (Bernie as he likes to be called) is the founder and CEO of Organo Gold, a Canada based business. They provide beverages and other products containing the miracle mushroom Ganoderma lucidum, a fungus known for it's wonderful health benefits and many uses in traditional Asian medicine. Organo Gold utilizes a Multi Level Marketing (MLM) approach in their sales force and has been very successful with the method.
Mr. Chua got his start in business in the Philippines with a company called Gano Excel. That company is still around. Sometime after 2003 Mr. Chua decided to do something new and prolific with the business. He and Gano Excel went their separate ways and Chua founded the company Organo Gold. He had a vision for the company that would focus on quality products and well-trained distributors.
The most produced product for Organo Gold is coffee and they do it very well. After water, coffee is the most consumed beverage on earth. Why not add some extra health benefit to it as well? That is exactly what Chua thought when he went into business. Chua knew the wonderful qualities of the ganoderma mushroom. If added to one of the top consumed beverages in the world the overall health of the people on this planet would improve.
Another thing that Bernie is good at is developing a MLM strategy that is knowledgeable, equally beneficial to the distributor and the consumer, and creates lasting business relationships. Unlike many MLM's, training with Organo Gold is state of the art. Their training seminars are recorded and available on line. The company even has it's own on line university, OGuniversity. The newly employed distributors are able to start earning very quickly, which means they are happier and more inclined to stay on the team for years.
Bernardo Chua recognizes that his distributors are the foundation of the company. He can be seen in many videos (see youtube video below) beginning his speeches giving credit to them for a job well-done. He is a likable guy with a quick sense of humor. He truly cares about taking care of his employees as can be seen by the new facility that he recently opened for the international home office for Organo Gold. He threw a huge party for the building opening, inviting all of the Organo Gold distributors and their families. He spared no expense in letting them know that they are appreciated. Bernardo Chua is a model businessman of the future. He understands that business is so much more than just bottom line, it is a family.
No matter what time period it is, proper health has always been a concern for many people and organizations. Some of this was put to a vote as of late.
On Tuesday, the city of San Francisco voted to add health warning labels on sodas and some sports drinks. The new law means that drinks that have sweeteners that contribute 25 calories or more to them will be required to have a warning ad on it. The Board of Supervisors has said that the new ad would have to take up a large portion of the advertising area.
The labels will come with a large warning sign that reads, "Drinking beverages with added sugar(s) contributes to obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay. This is a message from the City and County of San Francisco." Paul Mathieson, who is on the Board of Supervisors, says the warning label idea was put in place cases of Type 2 Diabetes have increased dramatically and sugary drinks like sodas are heavily responsible for all of that.
He says that by adding health warnings and taxes on other substances in the past like cigarettes, the city was able to drastically the rate of smoking, and hopefully they can do the same with sugary drinks.
He also said that billboards, buses and bus stops would all feature the sugary drink health ads.

Generally the MAC line offers well-pigmented cosmetics, affordably priced. I can get from pink to rose to berry w/Capricious, depending on how much is applied. Not much staying power, but the stain it leaves behind after wearing off is a nice extra.

To me Capricious is a deep dusty rose shade with just a touch of berry and I can see this working with a lot of different complexions. But, as HauntedMoonlight said, a lot of other brands (even the cheapest ones around) carry very similar shades to this one. So yes, it's nice for everyday wear, but nothing too original either, so I don't think I'll buy this again.

Capricious is a plum/berry lipstick. The color is pretty, but it's not very unique. Other brands probably have something similiar, but with better staying power. I'm not a big fan of the lustre formula (I prefer mattes and satins). This lipstick is too sheer and doesn't last very long. I have to reapply it several times a day. I've had this lipstick for about five months and even though I don't use it very often, (only 1-2 times a week) it's already almost finished. Capricious is my first lustre lipstick and I won't buy anymore of them.

Fortunately, I didn't purchase this lipstick. I got it free through MAC's recyling program. I am very cool toned and this lipstick looks awful on me. It looked like a pretty pink-plum on my hand, but on my lips it's a pinky-violet-bordering-on-fuschia shade. I'm disappointed because I had high hopes for this lipstick from the MUA reviews. :(

This is one of the three or four lipsticks I wear most. When I first got it I thought it was nice but wasn't overwhelmed: it's a plummy, berry color with a bit of red it it. But I'm cool toned (NW20) who wears a lot of purple and blue clothes, and I've found that this is the lipstick that will effortlessly match with cool-toned clothing. I still don't know that I love it--certainly not as much as Sophisto--but I do find myself reaching for it constantly. Plus, I love the Mac Lustre formula. So, Capricious has earned itself five stars after all.

I absolutely love this color! I was looking for an everyday color that could also be used for a night out. This color does just that! It's a pretty berry color that brightens my face. I think it can be used in any season though I have not used it in the summer yet so that is yet to be seen. I love the lustre formula and am hoping to find another color that I like as much as this one to switch off with. This has definitely become a staple even though I have so many other colors!

i bought this color yesterday, and tried it on last night...

Great fall color for my PPP skin. I usually wear Clinique and was surprised at how much I love this color. Try it out.

For me, this is the "your lips, but better!" color. The lustre formula as always is sooooo nice, it applies beautifully and seems to melt into your lips so the color looks very natural. I will definitely be buying this again!

This lipstick is rose and berry and plum all at once. Beautiful color that I think would look nice on many skintones. The Lustre formula is amazing. Creamy and smooth and sheery and shiny. Great for everyday wear. Would buy this (or at least B2M for it) again.

Baby Axl's need for speed! Fergie shared an Instagram picture of herself playing dress-up with 7-month-old son Axl on April 3.
"What happens when daddy goes to set… #roaddogz4life," Josh Duhamel's wife, 39, wrote alongside an adorable snapshot with Axl Jack seated in a toy Ferrari. Both mom and son sported shades and biker-esque caps -- Axl in a black beanie and mommy in a printed bandana -- for their play date.
PHOTOS: Fergie and Josh's hot romance
During a recent Reddit AMA, Duhamel shared with fans what he enjoys most about fatherhood. "[I love] watching him develop into a little boy. Sitting up, holding a bottle or cruising around in his walker. You don't think it's a big deal until you see your kid doing it."
PHOTOS: Fergie's body evolution
The "Safe Haven" hunk, 41, who was joined in the room by his family, quipped, "Right now, at this very moment, she is singing Avicii to Axl. He loves it. I tried doing the same thing the other day and he just puked."
PHOTOS: Fergie's bumpin' pregnancy
The first-time dad also revealed to fans that he and the Black Eyed Peas frontwoman want siblings for Axl. "I'm ready whenever it happens," he said. "I'm always at the ready. We'd like 16."
Duhamel has a slew of big-time flicks due this year, including "You're Not You" with Emmy Rossum, "Strings" with Maria Bello and Laura Dern, and "Lost in the Sun" co-starring Josh Wiggins. He also recently shot a pilot for a TV series, "Battle Creek."

I think the funniest part of this thread - other than the 20 posts of nothing - is the OP. Bruins will barely make the playoffs (President's Trophy - about as diametrically opposed as is possible). Honourable mention to the line "I don't see how the Islanders miss the playoffs".
Are you not entertained?!?!

War Planners
This issue is all set up for the story we are about to recieve, it is basically a meet the players kind of issue. Not bad at all as set up issues go. The dialogue is intense, and I appreciate seeing the story from the side of the evil empire. Make no mistake, there is no gray side here, these guys are evil. The back up story about Rapunzel is pretty good also. Because of the witches curse she can only go out into the mundy world for two or three hours at a time. Because her hair grows four inches an hour. It's a short yet insightful little story. Very good.

Foggy future for Stevens
Nothing is becoming more clear when it comes to Stevens Elementary School, at 21st and L streets NW, other than the continued unhappiness of Foggy Bottom residents with Mayor Adrian Fenty's development pick for the project. Monday, the Foggy Bottom Association took the far-fetched step of asking Equity Residential (an S&P 500 company that manages some 550 multifamily buildings in 23 states) to forfeit its rights to Stevens because residents don't want apartments built there. See the request in a letter from the group's president below.
Fenty -- who has yet to formally announce his Stevens pick -- has the admirable goal of putting underutilized D.C. properties to greater use, thus increasing reliance on public transit, reducing the number of vacant buildings and adding to the city's tax base. In emerging markets, the recession has squelched the number of interested partners. Missteps in the West End, Tenleytown and now Stevens have made those goals more difficult in the city's choice markets as well.
One doesn't have to look far to see a deal where neighbors add great weight to a development without being heavy handed. For the other highly sought vacant school, Hine Junior High School, Councilman Tommy Wells and the Capitol Hill community decided what they wanted before a single developer presented. And it looks like they will get it.

Vice President of Development
Equity Residential
Mr. White,
It has been reported both by District officials and the local media that Equity Residential was awarded the contract to redevelop the historic Stevens School site. As you know, the Foggy Bottom and West End community was shocked and deeply saddened by the the interim Deputy Mayor of Planning and Economic Development's choice. As you also know, the majority of the community including the Foggy Bottom Association and the ANC supported the Peebles Corporation proposal while a minority of residents supported the Moddie Turray Company proposal. You must also realize that there was no neighborhood support for the Equity Residential plan to put rental units on the historic Stevens site. In fact, there remains overwhelming community opposition to this proposal.
Because of the political reality, community leaders have secured commitments from at least three of five members of the Council of the District of Columbia Committee on Economic Development that the Equity Residential proposal for Stevens will fail in Committee. It is our sincere belief and our committment that Equity Residential will never get the opportunity to develop this site. Furthermore, political realities and the interim Deputy Mayor of Planning and Economic Development's actions have made it quite difficult or impossible for the city to reverse its decision on this matter. At this time, the only way for all parties to move forward is for Equity Residential to respect the community and the Council of the District of Columbia and withdraw from the Stevens project entirely.
Lastly, it should be noted that the Foggy Bottom & West End community will not negotiate with Equity Residential on this matter. Unfortunately, Equity Residential has a terrible record in our neighborhood due to ownership and management of the 2400 M Street Apartments. Equity Residential's business plan for the Stevens site simply does not fit in Foggy Bottom & the West End.
We urge you to recognize the importance of respecting our Foggy Bottom & West neighborhood, and equally important, the Council of the District of Columbia.
Thank you for your consideration,
Asher Corson
President Foggy Bottom Association

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
What a crisis has done to the people of Greece

Ethiopia were stripped of three points in World Cup qualifying by FIFA on Monday for fielding an ineligible player in a game against Botswana, handing South Africa a lifeline for next year's tournament in Brazil.
FIFA said Ethiopia forfeited their 2-1 win in Botswana on June 8 because Minyahile Beyene played in that game when he was suspended for receiving two yellow cards in earlier qualifiers. FIFA has awarded the match to Botswana 3-0.
The sanction means Ethiopia are now only two points ahead of South Africa and three ahead of Botswana and not guaranteed a place in Africa's final playoffs for the World Cup ahead of the final round of Group A games in September.
FIFA's disciplinary committee also fined Ethiopia's federation $6,348.
Administrative blunder
The Ethiopian Football Federation is unlikely to appeal the punishment having already admitted that Minyahile should not have played in Botswana.
Minyahile was allowed to play because of an administrative blunder where officials "forgot'' he was suspended, the federation said.
Ethiopia went on to beat South Africa 2-1 at home in their latest game on June 16 and thought then that they had qualified for the 10-team playoffs, which will decide Africa's five countries at the World Cup in Brazil. Ethiopia have never played at the World Cup.
However, FIFA opened disciplinary proceedings against Ethiopia over Minyahile on the same day they joyously celebrated their progress.
South Africa, the 2010 World Cup hosts, are on eight points and at home to Botswana in the final round of games on September 6. Ethiopia, now on 10 points, face an away game against Central African Republic, which could be played in neutral territory because of ongoing unrest in the country.
Botswana, now with seven points, have an outside chance of qualifying for the playoffs if they beat South Africa and Ethiopia lose to Central African Republic, which cannot qualify.
FIFA also is investigating two other African countries - Togo and Equatorial Guinea - for allegedly fielding ineligible players in World Cup qualifying, which could throw two other groups into chaos.
Togo could forfeit their 2-0 win over Cameroon in Group I, which would put Cameroon above Libya and in pole position to take that group's spot in the playoffs.
Equatorial Guinea could forfeit points to Cape Verde in Group B, meaning Tunisia's progress to the playoffs is not yet certain.

Summaries for F8A3 Gene
This gene is part of a region that is repeated three times on chromosome X, once in intron 22 of the F8 gene and twice closer to the Xq telomere. This record represents the most telomeric copy. Although its function is unknown, the observation that this gene is conserved in the mouse implies it has some function. Unlike factor VIII, this gene is transcribed abundantly in a wide variety of cell types. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

I'm trying to get a good way of automatically running appcert.exe in an easy way.
I can not for the life of me figure out how to get the full package name of a package. For instance, I have an application titled
TwitterDemo, yet when I run Get-AppxPackage, that application doesn't even appear to be listed(probably listed as something like
c2934-289aa9-394.... Also, I really had rather not rely on using Get-AppxPackage from powershell and then parsing it's output and/or moving it to regular command line. There doesn't even appear to be an API for querying the package database from .Net, and the C++ API seems rather complex.
So basically, what's the easiest way of matching an applications "title" to it's full package name?

Whip out the Congressional Express Card, we've got bills to pay - later. The federal government is on track to achieve its fifth $1 trillion deficit in a row starting with a $120 billion shortfall for October. That figure is 22 percent higher than it was last October.

Keywords: Congressional Express, Obama, deficit, trillion, debt, national, ceiling, credit
WASHINGTON, D.C. (Catholic Online) - The rising deficit puts added pressure on Obama and Congress to work together to come up with a deficit reduction plan before the nation falls off the proverbial "fiscal cliff" in January.
If Congress cannot reach a debt deal before then, a blend of draconian spending cuts will take automatic effect, possibly triggering another recession.
Obama's record on spending is lavish. Only in the past four years has the nation seen annual trillion dollar deficits. These deficits are added to the national debt.
The deficit, to put it simply, is the balance due on the national credit card. Just like a household with a credit card, the plastic can be used in emergencies to cover unexpected bills. However, deficit spending has just become another way of financing the government which continues to spend well beyond its means.
The money the government borrows to deficit spend must be repaid, albeit later and with interest. This has the effect of sticking the next generation with the bill. Deficit spending provides money for wars, welfare, and tax cuts today, but will mean less money for everything in a decade or two.
While today Americans enjoy generous benefits from the government, a robust military, and hefty tax breaks, these will be paid back by the next generation.
The challenge then, is for the government to make tough cuts by carefully managing programs which are essential to national welfare and eliminating others that are more discretionary.
Unfortunately, which programs are deemed essential is a question of opinion, one which proves divisive between Republicans and Democrats in Congress. Nobody is willing to sacrifice their constituents' favorite programs.
Meanwhile, the fiscal cliff, could undo the Gordian Knot by triggering automatic tax increases as well as deep spending cuts. The problem of course, is the risk of recession. Going over the cliff will almost certainly trigger a recession, at least through the first half of 2013. Recessions are expensive for national governments, who must now care for the millions of unemployed and hungry.
Even if the government can agree to spending cuts and tax increases and a recession is avoided, the national deficit is still expected to grow by about $1 trillion.
Congress must grapple with this issue as well as the debt ceiling, which will be reached, coincidentally, by the end of December. The limit on the national credit card is $16.39 trillion.
Using a rough estimate of 300 million citizens, that puts the bill for every American citizen around $55,000. And eventually it must all be repaid, with interest.
Good luck, kids!

Kanes named chief magistrate in county Overcash loses job after 9 years
Published: Friday, December 18, 1992 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 18, 1992 at 12:00 a.m.
Longtime Spartanburg County Chief Magistrate Edward H. Overcash Jr. has been removed from his position and will be replaced by one of the county's newest judges. State Supreme Court Chief Justice David Harwell said Thursday he has decided to replace Overcash, chief magistrate for nine years, with 30-year-old attorney Karen Kanes, who became a magistrate in June. Overcash has had a series of running battles with state Sen. Glenn Reese over how the court is run. State senators appoint magistrates. Reese said Thursday he didn't request the change. But he didn't argue with the move. "The court needs to be a little more service oriented," Reese said. Harwell said Kanes is well-qualified. "I thought I'd make her chief magistrate for administrative purposes and see if things settle down." Kanes, who runs the traffic court, declined to comment about her appointment until it had been officially announced by the state Supreme Court. That announcement could come as early as today. Overcash declined to comment on the change Thursday morning. "The letter hasn't come out yet. I can't comment on it," he said. For most of the past two years, Magistrate Court has been plagued by a series of political and office controversies that have meant more delays for people served by the most-used court in the county. The chief magistrate for administration generally takes care of scheduling other magistrates and seeking money from the County Council. There are six full-time magistrates in Spartanburg and seven magistrates in other areas of the county. Overcash makes about $62,500 annually, while the other full-time lawyer magistrates make about $51,000, including bonuses. Reese believes Overcash's salary should be reduced when Kanes takes over. Overcash, an attorney, became a magistrate in 1980 and was named chief magistrate three years later. Earlier this year, a Spartanburg police officer told State Law Enforcement Division agents that Overcash was a guest two years ago at a lawyer's bachelor party where women were paid to dance nude. Overcash has denied he knew the women would be there. "There's been a lot of discussion over the past several years, so I just thought it was time for a change," Harwell said. The chief justice appoints or reappoints chief magistrates twice a year. Harwell said his staff had made him aware of concerns and questions about Overcash's leadership of Magistrate Court. "It just depends on what the situation was," he said. "There's no requirement for change." Kanes is a 1986 graduate of the University of South Carolina Law School. She has worked as an attorney for the state Senate, 7th Circuit Solicitor's Office and a Spartanburg law firm. Magistrate appointments this year were delayed more than a year because of funding disputes and political fights over how many would be appointed. "It all went back to the district magistrates who got disenchanted with him," said state Sen. John Russell, who appointed Overcash this year. "There was a lot of ill-will at that." Harwell signed an order making the change and other appointments in the state's 46 counties last week. Magistrate Georgia Anderson, who works in the Spartanburg office, said she's not surprised by the change. She advocated a better sense of cooperation now that a change has been made. "Basically, I've been interested in a change," she said. "That's been my feeling on it." Running disputes between magistrates have prevailed for at least two years at the central Magistrate Court. "We should all be operating together," Anderson said. As the central traffic court idea came together in 1991, some magistrates criticized the move, saying it diluted their authority. The court was supposed to start in early 1992 but didn't get off the ground until several months ago. The key reason behind the court is to move away from the previous system in which individuals and S.C. Highway Patrol Troopers shopped for judges of their choice. Some of the outlying magistrates didn't want to give up that power. Reese became their ally, calling the central traffic court a bad idea that would make people come to downtown Spartanburg unncessarily. "Based on the past two years of feelings I've gotten from citizens, they felt like there was a need for a change," Reese said.

last year and many years before , my yard was almost completely cover under each tree in acorns . i gathered buckets and fed the squirrels all winter. this year not a one what gives? any tree experts out there that can splain????
no acorns this year
Posted December 04 2003 - 10:18 PM

We have a decent amount on my property - I'm not sure but it could be from the amount a rain we've had this year.

I think the ones in central Jersey all blew away.
Posted December 04 2003 - 11:35 PM
I worked in the tree biz for a long time. The acorn crop (referred to as 'Mast') is cyclicle. Some years the trees produce incredible amounts of fruit, some years very little. If memory serves me right, oaks pollenate in February / March in this region (7). I'm not aware of frost being a problem as we have hard freezes well into April here.
There are certain insects that can affect the crop but generally that sort of damage is confined to a select few trees.
I can't remember the number of years in the cycle.
Posted December 05 2003 - 1:15 AM
bad year for the white oaks, no acorns at all, in fact,judging by the leaves this year both mine and my neighbors look like they might croak . way below average for the red oaks too. my hickorys did themselves proud and the maple trees had a huge seemingly year long seed pod explosion. my treeman tells me its both cyclical and weather related.

Posted December 05 2003 - 7:04 AM
Where I'm located (Long Island/south shore) the Acorns are raining down like crazy.
Interesting question!
Posted December 05 2003 - 8:03 AM
Another point to consider ... this year we had alot of rain. If you'll recall last year it was anything but wet. Public pools weren't being filled due to the drought.
Trees store sugars in their heart wood. The lack of rain in 2002 certainly would contribute to a reduced Mast in 2003.
Posted December 05 2003 - 9:56 AM
Bad year for white oaks, but the red oaks were raining down, same with the black oaks. Swamp oaks were OK, as were the pin oaks.
Posted December 05 2003 - 10:28 AM
Talk about the scant mast crop this year has been going on since about August. It's going to be a very tough winter for deer and turkeys, which are plentiful and rely on this critical food source for the necessary carbohyrates to keep them healthy throughout the winter.
It's made deer hunting a bit more unpredictable than in recent years because the deer are often having to spend more time wandering in order to find adequate food but the movements have been more difficult to pattern.
Posted December 05 2003 - 12:39 PM
I'm down in VA, and was pondering the exact same thing the other day while doing the leaves. Not complaining just wondering.
Posted December 05 2003 - 12:47 PM
RW, in years with low mast look for a grove of wild cherry's. Believe it or not, deer and turkey eat the seeds of cherry when the mast is poor.
Posted December 05 2003 - 1:09 PM
Fish Wish;
You nailed it buddy. The mast crop is cyclicle. I watch the white and red oaks on my property every year. This year is light.
Good info!!

$4.12. The beating should start in about 10 minutes. Wonder how many shares will be "accumulated" today. LOL.
under $4 is the plan for the MMs
Yep, they pushed past $4 so quickly my 60k AON order got filled at $3.99 instead of $4.
$4.30. Shorts aren't going to want to carry over the weekend. Too risky.
what would the risk be? No take out. No administration liking coal all of a sudden. No decrease in the massive oversupply of both thermal and met coal. Yeah shorts will be real scared to hold it. LOL.
I'm going with 4.22. The daily swirl has started.
Should have gone with your price instead of selling at $4.15, nice call. I just couldn't turn down a 8k gain in 25-minutes though.
close enough. Someone was buying any and every share available at $4.20. Next week will be interesting. Lets see what the WLT halt is about....
You are looking good on the 4.22, but did you anticipate that it would trade down to 3.98 before getting there?
You're looking good for that 4.22
