Ruth Ann Wisener
Thank you. Good morning, and welcome to ADM's First Quarter Earnings Conference Call. Before we begin, I would like to remind you that we are webcasting this presentation on our website, adm.com. The replay will also be available at that address.
For those following the presentation, please turn to Slide 2, the company's Safe Harbor Statement, which says that some of the comments constitute forward-looking statements that reflect management's current views and estimates of future economic circumstances, industry conditions, company performance and financial results. Statements are based on many assumptions and factors, including availability and prices of raw materials, market conditions, operating efficiencies, access to capital and actions of government. Any changes in such assumptions or factors could produce significantly different results. To the extent permitted under applicable law, the company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events.
Please turn to Slide 3. On today's call, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Pat Woertz, will provide an overview of the quarter. Our Chief Financial Officer, Ray Young, will review financial highlights and corporate results. Our Chief Operating Officer, Juan Luciano, will review our operations and outlook. And then Craig Huss, our Chief Risk Officer, will join Pat, Ray and Juan, during the question-and-answer portion of the call.
Please turn to Slide 4. I will now turn the call over to Pat.
Patricia A. Woertz
Thank you, Ruth Ann, and welcome, everyone, to our first half year first quarter conference call. First, let me start with a word to our friends on the East Coast coping with the effects of the storm. Our thoughts are with you and your families as you manage through this, and we hope you stay safe and are able to recover quickly.
Turning to our results this morning. We reported first quarter net earnings of $182 million or $0.28 per share on a diluted basis. Our adjusted EPS was $0.50 per share. Segment operating profit was $498 million.
Our first quarter segment results were mixed. Oilseeds performance was strong. The ethanol industry experienced sustained negative margins and Agricultural Services managed well through a complicated quarter, challenged by the impacts of the drought.
As we look ahead to 2013, we are bringing online our large Paraguay soy processing plant as South American farmers are responding to market conditions with record plantings. And we're implementing plans to navigate the tight U.S. crop supply.
Longer term, we remain optimistic as we see continued growth in global demand for protein meal and other agricultural products. We continue to execute our strategy, aligning our business to serve rising demand from customers around the world.
During this first quarter, we focused actions that will improve ADM's returns. We made progress on our ongoing portfolio management efforts, including discussions to sell our shares of Gruma and our investment in GrainCorp in Australia. We are restructuring our pension and debt obligations, and we've engaged the organization in a focused effort to drive down working capital. And we are ahead of schedule on our target to achieve $150 million in annual run rate savings from our organizational restructure and other cost actions and plan to have that in place by the end of this current quarter.
I'm proud of our efforts and the results of our work to reduce cost and capital, and these actions and others will improve ADM's returns.
I'll now turn the call over to Ray.
Ray G. Young
Thanks, Pat, and good morning, everyone. Slide 5 provides some financial highlights for the quarter, which I'll run through briefly. As Pat noted, quarterly segment operating profit was $498 million, down from last year's $721 million. This quarter's operating profit was negatively impacted by $146 million pretax impairment charge we took related to our investments in Gruma and its related affiliates. So excluding it, we earned $644 million in OP.
As Pat indicated, our intent to divest of Gruma is part of our ongoing portfolio management activities. We took the charge based upon a letter of intent we reached in mid-October to sell our interest to a Mexican third party. This agreement is subject to the approvals of the ADM and Gruma boards and to rights of first refusal on the part of the controlling shareholder.
Looking at our effective income tax rate for the quarter. We recorded taxes at about a 37.5% rate. The effective tax rate this quarter included approximately an 8% impact from factors associated with the change in fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 and the estimate tax impact from the planned Gruma disposal.

Karen Armstrong, whose new book Fields of Blood: Religion and the History of Violence invites far more subtle understanding of the relationship between faith and fratricide globally, has written a characteristically thoughtful piece on IS/ISIS for The New Statesman magazine: 'Wahhabism to ISIS: how Saudi Arabia exported the main source of global terrorism'.
The West has a lot to answer for in terms of its colonial past, influence over the region and propping up of dictators. But this also means that it should have learned much over the years. So can it exercise some humility and apply those lessons intelligently? Ekklesia associate and MENA region expert Dr Harry Hagopian looks behind the horrific killing of Alan Hennings to ask what sustains IS/ISIL and what can be done to marginalise them.
The WCC General Secretary has welcomed publication of an open letter by a group of 126 Muslim scholars to Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, leader of IS.
Muslim leaders in Britain and across the world have condemned as 'despicable' the apparent murder of aid worker Alan Hemmings.
The ever-productive Martin Marty Centre at the Divinity School in the University of Chicago has offered a powerful article in its 'Sightings' series on what can and cannot be known and understood about IS/ISIS at present.
Thinking about how to respond to ISIS/IS, and in view of the perilous realities of Iraq and Syria, have we tended to ignore the increasing tensions in Palestine and the relationship between all these? Regional commentator and Ekklesia associate Dr Harry Hagopian argues that ISIS cannot be dealt with by brute force and must be countered by political solutions that re-enfranchise the peoples of the region.
'Timor mortis conturbat me' – the fear of death disturbs me. These words, from the liturgy of the Roman Catholic church, first became a literary device in medieval times, bracketing human follies and fears within the ambit of our common mortality.
IS has recruited more than 6,000 new fighters since the US began targeting the violently militant group with air strikes in August 2014.
Bombing plays into the hands of IS, whereas education, development and refugee support can begin to address underlying causes, says Giles Fraser.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has urged Iraqi security forces not to intervene in the country's political process amid heightened tensions and the threat from the Islamic State.

|Despite the fact that most of us think often about society and social life, few of us have had extensive schooling in how to organize or structure such thought. Guided by the belief that the sociological imagination is impoversihed if accessible only to a handful of specialists, Key Sociological Thinkers provides the lay reader with a clear and manageable overview of the major sociological developments from Marx to the present day.Twenty-one concise, thorough chapters introduce the key thinkers in the field; their driving impulses, issues central to their work, substantive examples of the theory in action, their legacy, as well as reading lists meant to stimulate further research. The books range includes not only canonical figures, such as Marx, Weber, and Durkheim, but feminist, post-structuralist, and post-colonialist thinkers of recent decades, including Nancy Chodorow, Michel Foucault, and Stuart Hall. Other sociologists and social theorists overed include Sigmund Freud, Georg Simmel, Herbert Blumer, Talcott Parsons, Robert Merton, Simone de Beauvoir, Norbert Elias, Erving Goffman, David Lockwood, Harold Garfinkel, Louis Althusser, Jurgen Habermas, Pierre Bourdieu, Arlie Hochschild, and Anthony Giddens.Key Sociological Thinkers is ideal for students new to the field, veterans looking to brush up, and anyone eager to expand their understanding of the world in which we live. *Author: Stones, R./ Weber, Mark/ Stones, Rob *Binding Type: Paperback *Number of Pages: 366 *Publication Date: 1998/10/01 *Language: English *Dimensions: 9.20 x 6.14 x 0.83 inches

Best excuse in these up coming winter months, or just generally for those of us who like to hug the floor a lot.
Not that there is anything wrong with that. Can you think of any other celebrities that do this as well?

Diwali and Ankut Celebrations in Loughborough
Posted on 11/11/2007
P. Klein
Yesterday (10th November 2007) saw celebrations of Diwali & Annakut at the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Moira Street in Loughborough.
Diwali is a major Indian holiday and festival celebrated by Hindus, Jains and Sikhs globally as the "Festival of Light" where lights mean victory of good over the evil within every human being. The word Diwali comes from the Sanskrit word Deepavali and means an array of lights.
BAPS was formally established in 1907 and currently celebrating its centenary. It is a worldwide spiritual organisation dedicated to fulfilling the spiritual, cultural and social needs of people while promoting harmony between individuals, families and communities. In the UK it is respected as one of the largest and most active Hindu groups among the Indian diaspora.
The centre in Loughborough has many volunteers that help promote development amongst children and the youth of the community. These character-building activities include such items as music, language, art (the decorations for the celebrations were created by the youngsters), public speaking , sport and of course spiritual development. Locally they are an active participant of Charnwood Council of Faiths and have been involved with such events as Loughboroughs Party in the Park. Other projects that have been undertaken have included supporting the Blue Peter Shoebiz Appeal, Children In Need and a sponsored walk for the British Heart Foundation.
Yesterdayf at the Mandir in Loughborough, an Annakut of 275 vegetarian offerings, representing the first harvest, was prepared and arranged in tiers in front of the sihaasan (shrine). This was the largest Annakut they have had in Loughborough. However we are reliably informed that today the Neasden Mandir has entered the Guinness Book of Records for the largest Annakut ever.
Throughout the day at 2 hourly intervals Arti were performed which started with offering inner feelings and emotions to God by singing hymns. At the first Arti there was a brief history of the Mandir in Loughborough which was started by one family in 1970. They moved to their current premises in Moira Street in 2001 and the premises are used every day of the week.
Mayor of Charnwood, Joe Tormey, who attended today with the Mayoress Debbie Green said:It was the first time I have been in the temple and am very impressed. I can remember what the building used to be like and am amazed by the amount of work that gone in to the place. He went on to say "Loughborough has a great history of welcoming people. We all have the same desires and wants and that by working together we can achieve those wants
Joe went on to comment of the philosophy of BAPS Swaminaranyan Sanstha and its approach to developing children by saying that it was tremendous having people grow up with confidence.
Minister Jeff Hopewell who also attended an Arti said:Every time I come I appreciate your welcome. One thing I would like to compliment you on is your devotion. Your devotion to your God. Your devotion to your Guru. The devotion to your community. The devotion to your duty. Your contribution in this part of the world is appreciated. Thank you for your devotion.
Mike Jones, Chairman of Leicestershire County Council and County Councillor for fswho attended with wife Marj also paid great compliments saying:The way you encourage young people reach their maximum potential has our admiration. The way you work with family, men, women and children is an absolute pleasure to behold and we are very pleased in the way you operate. On behalf of Leicestershire County Council thank you for the harmony and peace you bring to this town, county and country.
This reporter was also amazed by the friendliness of the community at the centre that we have seen at various times in Loughborough over the last year inLoughborough has been running. They also took time to explain what was happening and the meaning behind items. A special thank you must go to Atul Patel and Anand Ladwa for there assistance. The inLoughborough team wish them a happy and prosperous New Year.

Chef Q & A: Guy Verdi
Guy Verdi
Verdi's…an American Bistro
241 N.Collier Blvd., Marco Island. Phone: 394-5533.
Hours: Serving dinner at 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, closed Sunday and Monday.
Began working at present restaurant?
When we opened, Nov. 23, 1998
What is it about food that inspired you to become a chef/cook?
Just the enjoyment of it and being around my family. My mom was a chef in Wildwood, N.J., so food was an important part of our lives.
What was your first restaurant job?
The Crestwood Diner, I was 13 and I started my culinary career as a dishwasher.
How long have you been cooking professionally?
About 35 years, give or take a few.
What is the most unusual dish you ever cooked?
Sea urchins. We had a customer request, and I had them flown in from the West Coast. I looked it up (recipes) because I never worked with them, and brought the two recipes I prepared to the customer's table — but I never had to cook them again.
Are you planning changes to your menu for the summer season?
We have a special menu — Verdi's Small Plate Menu — very cutting edge and attractively priced. Now, you can't afford to not to eat here at Verdi's.
What is the most popular dish on your menu?
Actually, we have two. The grilled New Zealand rack of lamb with a port, lamb jus and mint demi-glaze and pan seared Chilean sea bass we serve with cannellini beans, oven dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts, but our small plates are really becoming winners.
What is one food that you'll never eat? Why?
Intestines. You know, things like organ meats. They were on our family table and I had to eat them. Now that I'm grown I'll never eat them again.
Who would you like to cook a meal for? Why?
Tom Colicchio of "Top Chef," because I believe in his honesty and I would like Padma and Tom to critique me.
What is your most essential cooking implement? Why?
A set of knives. You can't work in a kitchen without them.
What is your favorite TV cooking show?
"Top Chef" and "Iron Chef America." I really enjoy watching Morimoto.
What would you like to be doing if you weren't a chef?
An architect because I enjoy drawing and design and I enjoy watching a building rise out of the ground.
What annoys you most in the kitchen?
Non-organization, cleanliness and noise. Everything should be in its place so anyone can grab it.
What do you enjoy most about your profession?
See question two — basically it's the enjoyment I get from cooking for people.

"Picture" Perfect
Randall Jarrell's classic novel of academic life.
Dec 5, 2005, Vol. 11, No. 12 • By DAVID GUASPARI
If Benton had had an administration building with pillars it could have carved over the pillars: Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you feel guilty. . . . Many a Benton girl went back to her nice home, married her rich husband, and carried a fox in her bosom for the rest of her life--and short of becoming a social worker, founding a Neo-Socialist party, and then killing herself and leaving her insurance to the United Nations, I do not know how she could have got rid of it.
RANDALL JARRELL is most often remembered not as a poet or teacher but as a critic--a discerning and influential appreciator (of Frost and Whitman, for example, when neither was fashionable), but also a hit man with a double-oh number, a Gatling gun who fired devastating one-liners: "[These poems give] the impression of having been written on a typewriter by a typewriter." Praise and blame sprang from the passionate belief that poems mattered.
His only work of fiction, Pictures from an Institution, turned 50 this year. It is sui generis--set at insanely progressive Benton College, but not a "campus novel" and not, in fact, a novel at all, if such niceties as plot, character development, and dramatic conflict are insisted on. It is, as the title suggests, a gallery of portraits. It is above all a performance, an exuberant high-wire act its author could classify only as a "prose book." One is tempted simply to quote--for example, the famous description of the president of Benton College as "so perfectly well adjusted to his environment that sometimes you could not tell which was the environment and which was President Robbins."
As might be expected, Pictures delivers an impressive body count. As might be feared, it occasionally assaults the reader with epigrams, each trying gamely to top the last. (At least one critic has said that it's the sort of book you can put down.) But more than enough hit home to make the book great fun, even as it acquires emotional depth from a core of sadness. Like much of Jarrell's poetry, it's about loss. When earnest Flo Whittaker (a kinder, gentler Mrs. Jellaby) inevitably quotes, "We must love one another or die," Gottfried Rosenbaum, the book's moral center, replies, "We must love one another and die."
The archetypal loss is the loss of paradise--but Benton College is a paradise in the form of a cliché, the Idea of the Idea of heaven:
In Spring the air was full of apple blossoms and Benton was like--like Spring everywhere, but more so, far, far more so; in Winter the air was full of snowflakes, the red-cheeked snow-booted girls stood knee-deep in their pedestals of snow, and the frost-crystals of their window panes were not frost-crystals at all but cut-outs, of Matisse's last period, that had been scissored from the unused wedding dress of Elaine the Lily Maid of Astolate; in Autumn all Benton was burning, and the students walked under the branches of fire--how was it that they walked among the flames, and were not consumed?--and picked the apples the blossoms had grown into, and threw the cores on the tennis courts where Yin and Yang [the President's dogs] and the Rosenbaums' blue Persian played with them.
The prose is, typically, determined to err on the side of excess, with flourishes that can amuse even those of us forced to look them up. (In Le Morte d'Arthur Elaine dies for love of Lancelot.) And Jarrell the poet gives his catalogue a meaningful form: The seasons run backward, from spring to winter to fall; and, with time's arrow thus uncertain, apples might well precede the blossoms they grew from. Temporal and causal succession have no place in a paradise--even a comical one in which the animals with true gravitas are pets. (It's they, after all, who play with the girls.)
The passage is also seductive, provoking nostalgia for experiences the reader is unlikely to have had but might have wished for. Gottfried's sardonic references to the supposed epoch in which "the state has withered away" will remind us that paradise on earth is always an illusion, and rarely amusing. The charm of Benton, though not sinister, is suspect. Benton offers "second childhood. It had sloughed off the awful protean burden of the past: of Magdelanian caves and Patmos and palm-leaf scriptures from Ceylon; of exiles' letters from Thrace or the banks of the Danube . . . So, most of their burden flung off, the people of Benton went light and refreshed upon their way."

In a bilateral teleoperation system, the controller design aims at providing a faithful transmission of signals (velocities, forces) between the master and the slave manipulators to couple the operator as closely as possible to the remote task. However, when teleoperation is performed over a great distance, a transmission time delay is incurred, and it destabilizes the bilaterally controlled teleoperators. This paper considers the application of model predictive control (MPC) techniques to bilateral teleoperation systems with time delays and proposes a modified MPC scheme, which uses both the current measurement information and a correction signal reflecting the difference between the measured information and its prediction. An example is used to show that the proposed MPC method can achieve better robust properties for bilateral teleoperation systems in the presence of uncertain transmission time delays.

I just turned 27 years old. Although I was born in Los Angeles, raised in Canada, and spent my high school and college years back in California, I now live in Vegas. I have lived and traveled to many different places. I love the outdoors. My hobbies include sports, hiking, traveling, exercise and really anything fun. I have a dog named Zoe (which means "life" in Greek). I'm a Laid back guy who enjoys spending time with friends and meeting new people. I have two siblings (a brother and sister) and my family means a lot to me. A perfect night for me is getting together with someone and cooking a nice dinner, while watching a movie or Sunday/Monday night football haha. I try to always remain positive and be in a good mood. I like to go out and have a good meal over conversation. In terms of going on dates, as long as I am spending quality time with that person, I am a happy guy. I believe in karma and that you should always treat others for how you would like to be treated. I am looking for someone that is fun loving and spontaneous. Some other characteristics I am looking for include: independence, sense of humor, career driven and trustworthy. Relationships require effort by each partner. Good communication is vital for me and the willingness to make certain compromises to better the relationship. I'm excited to meet some new people and see what this site is all about!

Maximum concurrent jobs
Created: 05 Sep 2013 | 3 comments
Is it possible to check where NetBackup keeps track of the number of concurrent jobs it's writing to a Disk Storage Unit? I'm getting jobs queued up that they have reached the max for the storage unit but if I count up the number of active jobs the numbers don't add up so I'm worried my media server may have their count off somehow.

Larry Hagman, oilman J.R. Ewing of 'Dallas,' dead at 81
J.R. Ewing was a business cheat, faithless husband and bottomless well of corruption. Yet with his sparkling grin, Larry Hagman masterfully created the charmingly loathsome oil baron and coaxed forth a Texas-size gusher of ratings on television's long-running and hugely successful nighttime soap, "Dallas." »Read Full Article(16)

Home Alone... What to do
Quote: "I then run my hand all the way down to her pussy she's soaking wet. I part her lips I rub two finger up and down her clit"
The Story...
Sitting at home with nothing to do ever since my roommate left to go see her boyfriend in Florida for 2 weeks, I've been just relaxing enjoying having the place to myself. I'm 21 5"2 120 lbs shoulder length brown hair Latina with 34b breasts. I flick through the channels but nothing seems to be on. I get up and go over to my DVDs I go through them action, comedy, horror none seem to get my interest but then I go over to my "other DVD collection" I pick out a movie called "cheer leading tryouts" I laugh at the name. But the cover has two nude girls kissing the cover is already making me hot. I go over to my DVD player and pop it in. I then go over to my dresser and pull out my blue vibrator its one of those that move up and down by its self.
I then get on my bed and press play. The girls on the TV start kissing and I start to heat up. Then one of then removes her underwear and the other girl gives her one long lick from clit to ass. I'm getting wetter and wetter, I reach for my dildo and turn it on. Then my cell goes off, I got a text message, I pause the movie. Its from my friend Alice she's also bored at her place and wants to come over. I text her back "duh girl you can come over anytime you want... bring food." And I send it. Well she lives like two doors from me, I live in a small apt complex. I tuned off the TV and throw my dildo under my bed then the door bell rings. "There she is" I get up and open the door. There stands Alice also Latina like me 5'2 about 117 lbs long black hair slender body she's wearing a white tank top and a pair of very short shorts her nice round ass cheeks coming out from the bottom.
I'm still horny from watching the movie and she's not making it better. "hey girl" she walks in and I smell her perfume it smells so good. She comes in and goes over to my bed and sits down I close the door and lock it as well as my bedroom door. So how you been doing Mia she asked "fine I have a week vacation and nowhere to go I say". "Well we should go somewhere" she says. We agree to go to the beach in the morning and stay there all week. we talk about work and friends and also movies,then she gets up and gets a movie she's brought with her and walks over to my DVD player. "Oh no I left the porn in the DVD player" the door slides open "OH MY!" she says I start blushing like crazy "I must of forgotten to take it out I say. She then pushes the tray back in and presses play.
She comes over and snuggles next to me and giggles. I can't believe it. "Lets make fun of the guys penis and the girls tits come on it'll be funny" she says. The movie is a lesbian flick, she's not going to see any dick. I then tell her that. "I want to watch it if your OK with it" she asked. "OK that's cool" like I would say no.The movie keeps going the girls are now grinding their pussies together one of my fave moves. Minutes later Alice is breathing hard and she keeps rubbing her legs together, she's horny. Then I can't believe my eyes she puts a hand down her shorts. I'm getting more turned on by watching her then the movie. She then lets a soft moan escape her plump lips. Then the unthinkable happens she opens her eyes looks over at me I look away embarrassed.
She then leans over and starts to kiss me. I can't help but take my hand and go under her shirt and bra. I squeeze her tit and run my thumb over her erect nipples, she then slides her shorts off and kicks them to the floor. She's wearing a black thong, she takes my hand and puts it on her hip. " if you want, you can take them off or not its up to you." She tells me. "And if I take then off are you sure you'll be OK with it I ask. Then she takes my hand and pulls them down. " yeah ill be OK with it". I look down and see her hairless pussy omg just how I love it. When I look up she already had her mouth on mine kissing me, her tongue moving around mine. At this point I'm so wet and my clit is throbbing wanting to be touched. Still kissing I take her shirt off as well as her black bra I kiss her neck and down her chest I take one of her nipples into my mouth and suck on it, she moans quietly in my ear.
I then run my hand all the way down to her pussy she's soaking wet. I part her lips I rub two finger up and down her clit. " don't stop" she says. I then get on top of her she then takes my shirt and bra off. I lay on top of her when our breast touch it sends shivers down my spine. She then un-buttons my pants and I kick them off to the floor. "Omg you have a really good body" Alice says " you have a nice pussy let me taste it" I tell her. I kiss her lips then kiss down her body I stop and suck on her hard nipples. Then I get to her pussy, The smell is sweet and so is the taste. I widen my tongue and give her a long hard lick then start to flick at her clit, I twist and turn my tongue, sucking her clit she starts to moan louder. She takes my hair in her hand and pulls on it a little. I then stick my tongue in her pussy and move it in and out.
She then says that she's coming, her pussy walls start to squeeze my tongue and she comes in my mouth I lick it all off. She's left breathing heavy "wow that was better than any guys ever done" she says "now its my turn. Alice then takes me and lays me down on my back and puts one of my legs on her shoulder, leaving my pussy wide and exposed. Then she puts her pussy really close to mine,she then takes some of her juice and rubs it on my clit. She takes her pussy and mine and starts to rub then together. I'm shaved she's shaved.... I melt at the feeling warm wet slippery." I love this" I tell her," I know you where really in to it watching that part of the movie" Alice tells me. We rub slowly at first I start to feel myself coming and then Alice bumps them together, not hard but with just the right force to send me over the edge.
A very powerful orgasm washes over me and we both come at the same time, getting even wetter. I then go and get my dildo that's under my bed "oh yeah come on Mia, fuck me" Alice says. I turn it on and rub my clit with it I start to moan I then sit next to her and I slide the dildo in I let out a load moan out. "Lick me" I tell Alice she then takes the dildo from my hand and moves it around and then starts to suck on my clit. "Harder suck it harder" I let out. Alice then starts to fuck me harder and faster, my muscles cave on the dildo and then release it. I squirt all over her chest. Alice looks down runs a finger from her neck down her chest and puts her finger in her pussy and takes it out to taste it. ."yum" she says " Mia I've never used one of these so be gentle OK" she hands it over. "Are you a virgin" I ask. "Yeah" "OK, I got something better for you." I go over to my dresser and get my finger vibrator and turn it on. I then lay Alice down and put my finger in, I move it in and out she's moaning a lot and starts to kiss me, she then stops, and looks at me. "I want to squirt like you" she tells me "OK" I say. I move my finger in and out and when I start to feel her climax I press down and rub harder on her G spot she squirts in bucket fulls all over my arm. Alice then falls on me breathing heavy. I'm beat, she says I look down at Alice, her head on my chest she looks sleepy and so am I. I can't wait for our trip in the morning.

All the political maps and statistics have been updated in this award-winning book. The society's world-renowned cartographers, working with education consultants and geographers have created a state-of-the-art world atlas for children ages 5 to 8. Large, easy-to-read maps introduce youngsters to the world and each of its continents. Full-color photographs, carefully selected for their appeal to young children, supplement the maps and make people, places, and natural wonders come to life. Through simple but fact-filled text, children begin exploring the world by learning about maps and how to read them. Then they begin their continent-by-continent tour. Each continent begins with a welcome from a young native child, followed by an illustrated physical map with brief bulleted discussions of land regions, water, climate, plants, and animals. Similar treatment is given to the political map except the topics are countries, cities, people, languages, and products. Each spread features full-color images that are keyed to the maps. Backmatter includes a map keyed to a chart of geographic superlatives, a glossary, a pronunciation guide, and an index.

Washington's approval of a two-month delay in across-the-board spending cuts that were set to take effect on Wednesday is being greeted with trepidation by Pentagon officials, military contractors and defense analysts.
While the deal averted immediate cuts, President Barack Obama and congressional leaders will have to craft a new deal by the beginning of March to prevent the cuts from taking place in March.
Todd Harrison, a military budget specialist at the non-partisan Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, warned that the short-term deal might actually make it harder to enact a long-term agreement to prevent the cuts, known as sequestration, from happening. Read More »

Job Creation Surpasses Expectations
By Chris Arnold
Originally published on Sat November 9, 2013 9:24 am
The U.S. economy gained 204,000 jobs in October, nearly twice what most economists predicted. The unemployment rate figure went up, but that number was distorted because the Labor Department did its sampling during the federal government shutdown.

Song lyrics in Facebook status? Ugh....
I just want to know why girls feel the need to post stupid song lyrics in their Facebook status' so much. Most of the lyrics they put in there are... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Sometimes it really is harmless but ill be honest with you:
Sometimes it really is about getting a dig in at the person its directed to. I will post a song lyric, usually a mean one (ha) with the intention that the person its directed at will read it. I know that there is a good chance he will know its about him and its kind of my way of saying "f*** you" without really being confrontational. If he confronts me, I can either make him feel like an asshole and be like "why are you so self centered, its not all about you," or I can just be honest and tell him, hell yeah its about you and then talk about why I'm so p*ssed. I prefer to go with the honesty portion.
Its a mind game most of the time, its immature, but anger makes you do stupid things.

Well, it's HER status, not yours. If you would simply take the time to ask her why her words and actions seem to be inconsistent with what you are seeing then the confusion would be resolved. But you're not really doing the situation justice by taking a status message and running with it the same as you are accusing her of essentially not doing justice to the situation by posting the status in the first place. But the bottom line here is that...it's HER status.
A guy friend of mine does this too. This was already mentioned but it's a form of expression. I list the lyrics to a song in my messenger status or on here because it might describe my mood, the song might be stuck in my head or it describes my emotions. It's not meant to confuse anyone but if you are really curious then simply ask the person.
lol wow I didn't know doing this would cause such confusion! well, most girls only put up a lyric in their status because they like it. but sometimes girls put it up just to express how their feeling at that moment. like I do that once in a while, instead of typing ugh I'm so mad, I'll just get a lyric from a song to show that, no big deal lol. I wouldn't worry about it if I were youuu.
