It's rare to hear anyone say "please raise my taxes," least of all a CEO who makes more than $2 million a year. But in a New York Times Op-Ed piece Friday, that is exactly what Reed Hastings, CEO of the popular DVD rental service Netflix, did when he called on President Obama to raise taxes on corporate executives and other wealthy people.
Executives have come under a harsh spotlight in the financial crisis, with much of the downturn attributed to their irresponsibility and greed. Hastings argues against the pay cap for CEOs that Obama announced this week, suggesting instead that executives' income as well as their taxes be raised.
Click Here for the Latest Business Stories From ABC News
If CEOs and others who make more than $1 million annually pay half of their earnings in taxes, he says, it's a win-win: Companies get the best people, executives still get well paid and the country gets a tax boon.
One need look no further than to three of Obama's Cabinet nominees, including Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, to know Americans are generally opposed to paying high taxes. All of them admitted to not fully paying their taxes
Hastings, who did not return a call from ABCNews.com, writes that other attempts at capping executive salaries, including a Clinton initiative to halt executive pay at $1 million, did not work. He does not, however, mention that tax rates in the 1970s for wealthy Americans hovered at around 50 percent and much of the economic growth in the 1980s, conservatives argue, was a result of tax cuts.
As the economy spirals ever downward, liberals and conservatives have each taken up their traditional banners on how to best stimulate growth, with Democrats calling for more government intervention and higher taxes and Republicans calling for tax cuts.
It is no surprise to hear any liberal calling for a tax hike; it is a surprise, however, to hear that call coming from the boardroom.
While Hastings' suggestion might have its supporters, there is no shortage of executives -- especially at companies like Hastings' that do not receive funds from the Troubled Assets Relief Program -- who believe they are entitled to the money they have earned. There is also no shortage of conservatives who believe lower taxes allow private individuals to stimulate the economy through spending.
"This is nothing but a back door to raising the marginal tax rate," said Gerald O'Driscoll, an economist and senior fellow at the Cato Institute, a libertarian-leaning think-tank in Washington, D.C. "The salary cap or tax hikes are instructive in the same way: There is no such thing as a free lunch. If you take federal money, the government is going to decide what you have to do with it."
Obama this week capped the salaries of CEOs and other executives receiving government funds at $500,000 through the TARP, the U.S. government's financial assistance program for beleaguered financial institutions. The demand for a cap was reinforced over an outcry that Wall Street firms paid more than $18 billion in bonuses last year while receiving a massive infusion of taxpayer dollars.
For Hastings, who earns an annual salary of $850,000 and more than $1 million in additional compensation, that cap is ineffective because it shames CEOs without any cost benefit for the economy.

With the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week running from Tuesday until Sunday this week, there's surely a lot to watch. We've turned our eyes to the German capital's ethical fashion scene and have found out: Berlin has made every effort to represent sustainability in multiple forms and various locations.
With Mercedes Benz Fashion Week running from Tuesday until Sunday this week, there's surely a lot to watch. We've turned our eyes to the German capital's ethical fashion scene and have found out: Berlin has made every effort to represent sustainability in multiple forms and various locations.
Concert and event venue Huxley's Neue Welt in Berlin's edgy neighbourhood Kreuzberg was the location of the biggest catwalk concerned with sustainability – the SHOWFLOOR BERLIN. From the 15th to the 17th of January, a range of labels showed their creations here. All of them had one thing in common: social responsability. Fair trade, good working conditions and optimised transport routes brought these designers together to celebrate (in) style. One thing their shows had in common was the fact that unlike in other fashion shows, we didn't get to see a lot of extremes. Outfits were timeless and certainly no high street brand will be required to copy down trends in order to make them more wearable. This is fashion for the people and indeed it was, as all shows were open to the public. And for all of us who could not go, here are some of the shows.
Johanna Riplinger is launching her label with this first collection.
Format's simple cuts and monochrome looks are very wearable. Shame there is only a snippet of her show to be seen.
Raffauf is specialised in beeswaxed organic cotton coats.
GREENshowroom is an exhibition located in the high-class Hotel Adlon next to the Brandenburg Gate. All the showcasing labels are devoted to sustainability. Their invite-only Salonshow features some of the designs. Like in the old days, when fashion shows were small and exclusive.
Apart from this, the Ethical Fashion Show Berlin featured sustainable street- and casualwear while SCOOP was the platform for eco fashion and lifestyle. My personal bottom line of Berlin's green efforts is: although you can still see the eco side of things shine through in some places, it is good to see there is so much movement in the scene! I cannot wait what next season's sustainable shows will have on offer.

Tensions ran high at the New Mexico State Wrestling Championships after a controversial Rio Grande High School wrestler was allowed to compete.
Albuquerque Public Schools suspended Nick Chavez last week for allegedly stealing money from another student and then slapping the student.
An official from Rio Grande claimed to have witnessed the whole thing. But a district judge ruled in Chavez's favor Friday before competing and lifted the suspension.
Chavez finished the season undefeated, dominating his opponent from Atrisco Heritage.
Neither Chavez nor his family would comment after his state championship victory, but Bernalillo County Commissioner Art De La Cruz offered his support for Chavez.
"I think it was unfair to Nick and I think it was unfair to the family. But the judge ruled appropriately," De La Cruz said. "The young man had a chance. He prevailed today. And I think he will be vindicated in the end."
An incident report is expected to be released sometime next week.

GMC Supports World Autism Awareness Day
Light It Up Blue, in its third year, is a unique global initiative by Autism Speaks to help raise awareness about the growing public health concern that is autism.
In 2007, the United Nations General Assembly declared April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day, with the goal of bringing the world's attention to autism, a pervasive disorder that affects tens of millions.
The GMC diversity committee is setting up a table from 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. in Withey Lobby to promote World Autism Awareness Day, and is encouraging people to wear blue. Stop by to learn more about autism, and show your support for the cause.
An Evening of Poetry –
"Estuaries of the Mind"
This Tuesday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m. in the Gorge, award-winning poet Jason Kirkey will be sharing his poetry.
Influenced by the myriad landscapes that he's lived in – the temperate forests and old mountains of New England, the red rocks and high desert of Colorado, Irish mountains and rivers, the Pacific Coast, and the redwood trees of California - Kirkey's poetry touches on nature, Eastern philosophy, ecology, and the Celtic traditions of his ancestry.
As a poet, author, and founder of Hiraeth Press, Jason seeks to engage the ecological crisis through poetry as a transformative art. In addition to three collections of poems, he is the author of
The Salmon in the Spring: The Ecology of Celtic Spirituality
, which was a winner of a 2010 Independent Publisher Book Awards silver medal.
Farm Announces CSA Program for 2012
Cerridwen Farm would like to invite you to participate in our 2012 CSA program. Purchase of a CSA share helps to fund the purchase of supplies for the spring and the education and research projects that take place on Cerridwen Farm. This year, the farm already has approximately three hundred tomato seedlings germinated, and kale and peppers are on their way. As the season begins to take off, the revenue generated from the CSA becomes essential to supporting our operation.
This year you can purchase 20 weeks of farm-fresh vegetables and eggs (running June through October) for the cost of $450 for a large share, which is enough to feed four people (or two veggie lovers) or $275 for a small share, which is roughly half the size of a large. We also have semester only shares available for $200, which begin in September.
This year we are offering an early payment discount of $25 for members who have paid for their share by April 15th as well as a discount of $25 for members who refer new members.
We are also happy to arrange payment plans and split shares. Arrangements for automatic payroll withdrawal should be made with Janie Evans.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) The bill for investigating the actions of a University of Texas System regent has totaled nearly $600,000.
The Houston Chronicle reports that Houston lawyer Rusty Hardin's firm billed the House Select Committee on Transparency in State Agency Operations $588,000 to investigate Regent Wallace Hall. The final invoices were released Tuesday.
The panel has determined there are grounds to impeach Hall but has yet to vote on formal charges
Hall is accused of abusing his authority as a regent with massive record requests, bullying staff and releasing private student information in an effort to topple Austin campus President Bill Powers.
Hall denies wrongdoing. Powers recently agreed to step down in June 2015.

The situation is up in the air … the Dreamliner aircraft is not … and that is the one-sentence summary of Boeing's dilemma.
The hopefulness expressed last week for a quick fix to the battery problem grounding the Boeing 787 Dreamliner is not looking very promising, reports CNN.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will conduct further tests to the aircraft on Tuesday. The aircraft, which debuted about 15 months ago, began flying in the U.S. last November. United Airlines is the only domestic commercial airline that was flying the $200-million aircraft by Boeing.
Sunday's NTSB announcement "doesn't bode as well for a quick fix as Boeing would have liked," said John Goglia, a former member of the NTSB, the nation's top aviation investigation agency. "It's one step in the process. It's not great news, but it's not bad news either."

I haven't used it all that much because I find some of the other video editing software I own to be more user-friendly, and I almost feel as if an amateur video hack like myself isn't qualified to review such sophisticated software as this. Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Version 12 was designed to do some pretty impressive things, and I'm just a guy with a webcam and a little Flip camcorder who hasn't yet realized his dream of producing the next great low-budget amateur horror film; heck, I've only posted a couple of videos online over the past year.
So I fired up the program again tonight just to refresh my memory on its capabilities and ease of use, and guess what happened. As soon as I tried to capture a little video via my webcam, the whole program crashed with no explanation. I tried it again, and the same thing happened. My PC hardware is more than capable of supporting this program, so the fact that the capture process basically doesn't work for me has to result in a major point reduction in terms of my rating. As I wait for the program to restart once again, I can't help but notice the significant loading time - another point deduction. Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Version 12 is a real memory hog. That's not necessarily a criticism on my part, though; this powerful of a program is naturally going to require a decent amount of your system resources; on the other hand, who needs this kind of hassle when all you want to do is post a short video of your dog on YouTube?
So I go to choose an existing video for editing. Naturally, I want to scroll through a number of my available files to find the right one. Unfortunately, the software isn't as high on that idea as I am, as it commences to hose up the first time I choose to advance in my designated folder. It's enough to make me give up for a few minutes and wander over to Facebook. What if I just want to make a slideshow of various pictures? That's quick and easy - but doing something so simple in this program is sort of like taking an 18-wheeler down the block just to pick up groceries.
I can't complain about the extra features included with the actual product, though. Boris Graffiti is a great program for creating impressive title animations. Magic Bullet Looks gives you dozens and dozens of style choices to use for any given video. ProDAD VitaScene lets you add effectively subtle effects and transitions to your projects. Finally, it goes without saying that the inclusion of a green screen sheet is definitely a plus.
Based on my experience, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Version 12 is just a little too buggy, non-intuitive, and crash-happy for the average person. If you're a hardcore video editor on a budget, though, I think this software is certainly worth a look. The ability to work with and produce high definition video is a feather in Pinnacle's hat, even though you'll probably need a pretty powerful computer and lots of patience to get things working the way you want.

Shawn Chapman Holley: Lindsay Lohan's Lawyer is a Celebrity Mom
Lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley has been fighting for Lindsay Lohan's freedom in the L.A. courts. If she seems comfortable trying such a high-profile case, that may be because she has a long history of representing celebrity clients. Plus, she's married to an actual celebrity. To boot, she's the mom of three daughters, Nayanna, Sasha, and Olivia. If anything keeps a woman real, it's having three kids in the house. And finally, as you'll see below, she's a bit of a celeb herself.
Her track record representing stars in the courtroom goes all the way back to the O.J. Simpson trial, when Holley was a member of Simpson's defense team, led by Johnny Cochran. Since then, she's represented a diverse array of A-Listers. She's counted Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton, the Kardashian sisters, Michael Jackson, and Axl Rose as clients. If she looks familiar herself, that's because she's served as chief legal correspondent for E! News.
So who's her famous husband (and the father of her kids)? It's Darian Holley, onetime backup singer for Michael Jackson, vocal coach for American Idol, and singer with The Tonight Show band.

Growth re-emerging in Japan? Signs say yes
Investment opportunities in automotive, pharmaceuticals, building services, and energy.
- Fidelity Viewpoints
- – 07/10/2014
For most of the past 18 months or so, coinciding with the start of the administration of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Japan experienced a strong cyclical upswing in its economy. And despite some potential challenges, such as the new consumption tax hike, there are signs that may indicate a re-emergence of growth. What does that mean for investors? Get insight from our experts in a Fidelity Investments roundtable, moderated by Timothy Cohen, Fidelity's chief investment officer of international equities.
[Note: The following is an excerpt of the commentary provided during the late June 2014 roundtable discussion. Views represent those of one or more individuals, and should not be considered as the collective view of either Fidelity Investments or any particular investment division.]
Tim Cohen: Many fear the April 2014 increase in the consumption tax from 5% to 8% will halt the nation's momentum. How could it impact Japan's growth prospects?
Lisa Emsbo-Mattingly (director, Asset Allocation Research): The April consumption tax (CT) hike from 5% to 8% presents a risk not just to Japan, but to the rest of Asia. In 1997, the last time Japan raised the CT, consumer spending rose in the months preceding the tax, then collapsed and helped send Japan into recession after the tax went into effect (see chart, below). While a downturn in consumption during Q2 will not be a surprise, there is a risk that this event may not only short-circuit the momentum of Japan's household sector, but also cause a bigger demand shock that resonates across Asia and its major trading partners, particularly if the CT saps the confidence of the Japanese consumer, who represents approximately 60% of Japan's GDP.
Kirk Neureiter (portfolio manager, Fidelity Japan Fund): Interestingly, though, the most recent data point on retail spending through May—this is for all retailers in Japan—reveals that the year-over-year number is actually flat. This, to me, is incredible considering the drop-off that was expected following the introduction of the consumption tax. So private demand seems to be holding up better than maybe a lot of people expected.
Camille Carlstrom (associate portfolio manager, Pyramis Japan Growth Strategy): Anecdotally speaking, few companies, if any, have reported to us that business conditions are worse than expected. In fact, one of our analysts just returned from a trip to Japan where he met with a number of health care and materials companies, and the materials companies that supply to the automotive industry are optimistic on performance in the second quarter due to a less-than-expected decline in spending.
Cohen: What is Japan doing to address its deflationary economy and counteract the negative effects of the consumption tax?
Emsbo-Mattingly: The objective of the Abe administration and the Bank of Japan (BOJ) is to resuscitate inflation. From an asset allocation standpoint, it's very important to realize that the BOJ has always been a key player, but the policy it has implemented—this massive increase in the willingness to buy and willingness to stabilize the Japanese government bond (JGB) market—is a very big change that we've seen over the past 18 months. And it's something to watch. You can see a big divergence in the trajectory of Japanese government bond yields (at all-time lows) vs. U.S. government bond yields during the past year, when traditionally they have tended to move in a more correlated fashion (see chart, right).
Neureiter: So on that point, the BOJ's goal was to almost triple the country's monetary base by the end of 2014. The purpose of this goal was to stimulate the economy, increase the velocity of money, weaken the yen, and keep interest rates low.
Emsbo-Mattingly: Right. And so that may be beneficial to the Japanese exporters and the stocks of Japanese exporters, but it's not particularly good for the domestic economy in Japan, which, as stated earlier, is about 60% of GDP.
Carlstrom: But let's also keep in mind that a number of moves the Abe administration has announced have either just been enacted or won't be enacted until later this year. For instance, it has put through several programs to encourage corporate capital expenditures, and they all started in April. Other policies put forth by Abe, which are designed to boost infrastructure and increase public spending, take effect in the second half of this year. Abe has also been talking about the potential for a corporate tax cut, which could boost Japan's GDP growth and, by extension, corporate earnings growth. Japan has already turned from deflation to inflation, even without the consumption tax and even without the food and energy inflation, which has been significant. Its Consumer Price Index (CPI), less food and energy, is now indeed positive.1 An important thing to watch is if the government starts to quote CPI with the consumption tax impact in there. That would be a very negative sign that things in Japan have gone awry, because their goal for 2% inflation is without the consumption tax impact.
Neureiter: The government and BOJ are also telling companies to deploy their cash, or it will eventually get inflated away if it's just sitting on their balance sheet. Corporations are trying to deploy that cash faster than they have in the past, which should portend well for capital spending and other growth opportunities. Until November of this year, I don't think we will see additional purchases by BOJ beyond what they've announced so far. But I would expect this current purchasing trend to continue into 2015, so they will continue to be very accommodative.
Cohen: How has the yen responded to the government's anti-deflation policies, and what has been the impact on Japanese exports?
Emsbo-Mattingly: The yen has weakened substantially over the past 18 months, and that should be a net positive for Japan and for Japan exports. But, at the same time, it is a competitive shock for the rest of their trading partners. I think the yen is undervalued versus the U.S. dollar and also relative to many other currencies, and we think that's actually putting pressure on Asian economies to devalue their currency. We're already seeing the tiny beginning of a weaker Chinese renminbi (RMB), and if we see a sustained weakening of the RMB over the next few months, that's telling you there is stress in Asia. And for whatever reason, Japanese exports have not really benefited from that weak yen. In fact, nearly all export indicators, whether they're from China, the U.S., or Europe, have been weak.
Carlstrom: Japan's exports are indeed a negative. But one thing we need to think about is that a lot of Japanese companies are now producing overseas. And so that production is not going to go into GDP growth, but it is going to go into corporate profitability, which is where we're investing, on increased profitability. And business sentiment is turning positive. For the first time in 22 years, non-manufacturer sentiment has turned positive and, importantly, manufacturers and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were positive for the first time in six years.
Cohen: How have these factors affected Japan's employment market?
Emsbo-Mattingly: Japan's job market is white hot. However, real income—real total gross cash earnings—have turned negative, while nominal income growth is at zero. We have not been seeing broad-based, sustained increases in wages, because the productivity rate of the overall economy has not been improving. If the government's structural reforms and productivity start rising in a broad-based way in Japan, then I think you might get sustained real gains in income. But seeing real earnings go into negative territory in Japan has traditionally been a very negative sign.
Carlstrom: As Lisa pointed out, the labor market is tightening. Japan's unemployment rate, which was around 5.5% in 2009, is now down to about 3.5% (see chart, right). But as far as wages go, I wonder: Could real cash earnings be down because of the considerable number of people in Japan who are retiring? The wage differential between the older worker versus the newer worker in Japan is dramatic, so as higher earners exit the workforce and are replaced by younger workers at lower wage levels, wouldn't that put downward pressure on wage data? Even just the fact that the labor pool is shrinking would exert some downward pressure.
Cohen: What about consumer confidence? What is it telling us?
Emsbo-Mattingly: Consumer confidence is still down considerably from where it stood a year ago, though it did jump higher in May off its April low (see chart, right). However, we saw this happen in 1997 as well. In 1997, consumer spending bounced off its bottom of April and into May, but then turned back down again and was followed by a recession that lasted nearly two years. Could this happen again in 2014? It's possible. Our internal recession probability model shows Japan right on the threshold of recession, particularly as it enters the late cycle phase of its business cycle. Only 50% of leading indicators in Japan were positive through the end of April, compared with 90% about a year ago.
COHEN: Where do you see potential opportunities in the Japanese stock market?
Carlstrom: Our investment team is focused more on secular versus cyclical growth stories, as we were in the past. Some of the themes we like include the "electrification" of cars. This is a very big deal for auto suppliers in Japan. In addition, for the first time in a long time, we are overweight in big pharmaceutical companies. Before, we had done very well with health care equipment, but now we see some great opportunities in blockbuster drugs. I'd identify energy savings as a third theme. Energy costs in Japan are enormous, and companies that can help cut those costs may be attractive takeover targets.
Neureiter: Energy is a theme in our portfolio as well, and has been the best performing sector year to date. Tobacco and e-commerce are other areas of focus, along with Japanese rail companies. Broadly speaking, I try to find and invest in companies that are poised to improve their return on equity over the next two to three years.
David Jenkins (portfolio manager, Fidelity Japan Smaller Companies Fund): I'm definitely geared toward the smaller names. I look for the nexus between low valuation and high quality, plus strong shareholder remuneration. Some examples of good ideas I am finding are manufacturers of karaoke equipment and content. Another is geared toward services for buildings, such as cleaning, security, and maintenance. These businesses tend to have high recurring revenues and good returns on capital.

Investing involves risk, including risk of loss.
In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk, liquidity risk, call risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Rep. Michael Castle, R-Del., and the Tea Party Express purchased more airtime late Tuesday for what is shaping up to be a nasty run up to next week's primary. Castle bought another $75,000 of airtime in the Salisbury, Md., market, which covers southern Delaware, according to a Democratic source. The Tea Party Express, which is backing GOP primary candidate Christine O'Donnell, purchased $32,000 for air time on cable, but only in the Salisbury market. Both ad buys start today and run through primary day on Tuesday.
The ad buy brings Castle's total spent on the air in the primary to about $250,000. The Tea Party Express has vowed to spend $250,000 on the race, but it looks like it may be difficult for them to reach that goal before the primary. The largest estimate, including radio and direct mail spending, comes to just less than $138,000. Castle also went on the air on Tuesday with a negative TV ad targeting O'Donnell for tax issues and defaulting on her mortgage.

LONDON (TrustLaw) - The United Nations General Assembly voted on Monday to designate 11 October as the International Day of the Girl Child.
The resolution represents the culmination of a two-year campaign spearheaded by International charity Plan International and sponsored by the Canadian government.
Girls in developing countries face extraordinary challenges, leading an even harder life than their male peers in many situations.
Just because of their gender they are often refused an education and sent to work - sometimes as young as 5 - to help their family earn a living.
In countries like India female newborns are not even seen as a resource but as a burden, with female foeticide still a widely common practice.
In Niger, Chad and Mali, more than 70 percent of girls are married before the age of 18, and in other countries such as Bangladesh, Mozambique and Nepal the rate is 50 percent.
Here are some YouTube videos illustrating the everyday struggles of young girls globally.

Maria from the Vegan World Trekker blog is here to share news of all of the wonderful food she discovered while visiting Cape Town, South Africa in 2009.
A few years ago I traveled to South America. The highlight of the trip was a stop to Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia region of Argentina. Prior to heading home, the plane made a stop at the southernmost tip of the continent, Tierra De Fuego or the town of Ushaia.
Having visited the tip of South American fueled my passion to do likewise in Africa. The destination for my African journey last year, was Cape Town and the surrounding area. Cape Town is filled with hostels, a backpacker's dream. They are pretty inexpensive too!
Cape Town is a goldmine for vegan diners. Although there aren't many restaurants classified as strictly vegan, a multitude of ethnic restaurants and cafes present vegan offerings.
I was fortunate enough to have accommodations on Long Street, one of the city's oldest and most popular streets. My initial impression was that this street was comprised solely of backpacker hostels. Much to my delight, this street and the nearby vicinity provided multiple establishments for vegan eating. Some of the selections were African, Ethiopian, Turkish, Indian, and typical Western restaurants.
Rooti (Shop 1 Piazza Level, Clock Tower Centre, V&A Waterfront), located on the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront served Cape Malay cuisine, which is similar to Indian food but with a different combination of spices. It is a lovely restaurant with an outdoor seating area by the waterfront. I dined on veggie curry with rice, roti bread, and mango juice while being entertained by street musicians and singers of traditional African music. Another evening, I dined at Emily's (Suite 202, The Clock Tower, V&A Waterfront), also on the V&A waterfront. They cater to vegans, when asked. My meal was a grilled vegetable dish with rice. There were a couple of Indian restaurants on the waterfront which served equally delicious vegan options. However, the Dutch and European restaurants had nothing suitable for vegans.
There were a couple of small cafes in the Long Street area that serve vegan breakfasts. I ate one morning at Mountainview Cafe (171 Long Street) which prepared an amazing tofu scramble. I ordered a local beverage called aloe ferox juice, which is made from a local plant related to aloe vera but supposedly with much more healing potency. They have since closed business. However, Lola's (228 Long Street), a small vegetarian cafe close by, is still in operation. I had breakfast there one day and enjoyed a meal of toast with veggies and a side of fries. My beverage was a freshly squeezed orange juice. The cafe is also well known for its smoothies.
After my lovely breakfast, it was time to catch the tour bus for a visit to the botanical gardens of Cape Town. My tummy was full and now it was time to experience a feast for my eyes! The gardens were filled with vibrantly colored flowers of many varieties. Small birds and fowls roamed the grounds. Small ponds were scattered among the landscape. It was a breath-taking view!
For dinner options, Mama Afrika (178 Long Street) made a great vegan African stew. The African Café (No. 108 Shortmarket Street) prepared a tasty meal of appetizers and main course representing several African countries. Their sampling plate included flavorful rices, okra patties, bean dishes, and greens.
Addis On Cape (41 Church Steet) served a nice Ethiopian stew with pumpkin, various veggies and injera bread. A Turkish restaurant called Mesopotamia (Corner of Long & Church Street) served some wonderful Middle Eastern fare.
In summary, I would have to say that Cape Town, South Africa makes for a fantastic holiday destination with a vast amount of ethnic, vegan dining options that will surely satisfy your palate.

Possible Drug Interactions With Fiber Supplements
When taken at the same time as medications, fiber supplements can affect the absorption of certain drugs:
- Psyllium has the potential to reduce absorption of digoxin, Coumadin, lithium, and carbamazepine.
- Guar gum may slow the absorption of digoxin, acetaminophen, and bumetranide and decrease the absorption of metformin, penicillin, and more.
- Pectin may decrease the absorption of lovastatin.
How to Get the Most From Fiber Supplements
These guidelines can help you avoid side effects and interference with drug and nutrient absorption when you take fiber supplements:
- Check with your doctor before starting a fiber supplement.
- Gradually increase the amount of fiber you take each day.
- Drink plenty of liquids -- about 64 ounces daily – to avoid discomfort.
- Spread fiber intake throughout the day.
- Take fiber supplements separately from medication; take medications at least one hour before fiber supplements or two hours after fiber supplements.

Willamette Rolls Past Lewis & Clark, 69-24
PORTLAND, ORE. -- Willamette University amassed 518 yards of total offense and the defense earned three fumble recoveries, as the Bearcats rolled past Lewis & Clark College, 69-24, in a Northwest Conference game on Saturday, Oct. 10. Willamette, ranked #17 in the D3Football.com Top 25, improved to 5-1 overall, 2-0 in the NWC. Lewis & Clark dropped to 0-4 on the season, 0-2 in the NWC.
The Bearcats surged out to a 42-0 lead in the game's first 26 minutes. WU owned a 21-0 advantage at the end of the first quarter with touchdowns on a 12-yard run by Jamiere Abney (So., TB, Bremerton, WA/Bremerton HS), a 24-yard run by Matthew Williams (Fr., FL, Encinitas, CA/Las Costa Canyon HS) and a 21-yard fumble return by defensive end Cory Lowe (Sr., Beaverton, OR/Beaverton HS).
WU increased the lead to 28-0 on an 8-yard run by Deon Horne (Sr., TB, Issaquah, WA/Liberty HS) with 11:32 left in the second quarter. The touchdown came two plays after Lowe forced a second Lewis & Clark turnover, with running back Harrison Keller fumbling the ball at the L&C 19-yard line. Ralph Pineda (Jr.,, ILB, Los Angeles, CA/Cathedral HS/San Jose State Univ.) recovered the ball for Willamette and returned it eight yards to the Pioneers' 10-yard line.
On the first play following the kickoff, Lewis & Clark lost its third fumble of the half. Jordan Weil (Fr., LB, Sammamish, WA/Skyline HS) forced the ball loose from Adam Steinberg at the L&C 29-yard line. It was recovered by Willamette's Matthew Parr (Fr., LB, Lihue, HI/Kauai HS) at the 28.
Four plays later, following a bad field goal snap, Brian Widing (Fr., QB, Oregon City, OR/Canby Union HS) tossed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Walter Robinson, II (Jr., DE, Pasadena, CA/Cathedral HS). Mitchell Rowan (So., PK/P, Cotati, CA/Rancho Cotate HS) kicked the extra point for a 35-0 lead.
Willamette drove the ball 71-yards on six plays on its next possession. The big play of the drive was a 21-yard pass from Widing to Raymond White (So., WR, Corona, CA/Centennial HS) that brought the ball to the L&C 29.
Kevin Ramay (Fr. QB, Simi Valley, CA/Grace Brethren HS), who split time with Widing at quarterback in the first half, threw an 18-yard pass to Chad Pollard (So., FL, Bakersfield, CA/Liberty HS/Bakersfield College) to move the ball to the L&C 11. Terrell Malley (Fr., TB, Portland, OR/Roosevelt HS) scampered the final 11 yards for a touchdown on the next play. Rowan's extra point kick gave WU a 42-0 lead.
Logan Kotzian of Lewis & Clark mishandled the ensuing kickoff at the 7-yard line. He picked up the ball at the two, then raced 98 yards down the right sideline for a touchdown. Andrew Foote kicked the extra point.
The Pioneers followed with an onside kick toward the second row of Willamette defenders. Kotzian recovered the ball for L&C at the Willamette 36-yard line. WU had a chance to stop the Pioneers three plays later, but an interception by Cody Pastorino (Fr., CB, Atwater, CA/Buhach Colony HS) was wiped out by a defensive offside penalty.
L&C scored three plays later on a 1-yard run by quarterback Tucker Laurence with 38 seconds left in the half. Foote kicked the PAT, but Willamette held a 42-14 halftime lead.
Willamette outscored the Pioneers 27-10 in the second half with two touchdowns in each quarter. WU's touchdowns were scored by Pollard on a 19-yard run, Jake Turner (Fr., FL, Ontario, OR/Ontario HS) on a 17-yard run, Tyler Whitcomb (Jr., TE, Oakview, CA/Nordhoff HS/Ventura JC) on a 6-yard pass from Jake Jones (Fr., QB, Wilsonville, OR/Wilsonville HS), and Brent Turner (Jr., FL, Newman, CA/Orestimba HS) on a 1-yard run.
The Pioneer's scored on a 31-yard field goal by Foote in the third quarter and on a 1-yard run by back-up quarterback Nic Wilson with five seconds remaining in the game.
Willamette carried the ball 47 times for 370 yards and seven rushing touchdowns. The Bearcats averaged 7.9 yards per rush.
Malley led the way with six carries for 81 yards. Williams added four carries for 43 yards and Jose Green (Sr., TB, Downey, CA/Warren HS) gained 42 yards on seven carries. Sixteen WU players ran the ball, with six earning at least 36 yards.
The 'Cats passed for 148 yards. Widing was 6 of 11 for 93 yards and one touchdown. Ramay completed 3 of 8 passes for 35 yards and Jones was 2 of 2 for 20 yards and a TD.

In east Charlottenburg, a shopping and dining hub near public transportation
The Hotel Savoy Berlin is located in the eastern side of the elegant Charlottenburg neighborhood, a wealthy area full of intimate restaurants and great shopping. Kurfurstendamm (or Ku'Damm), located a few blocks from the hotel, is lined with upscale boutiques, designer stores, hotels, and elegant businesses. The building sits equidistant to two railway stations, and the subway is a quick walk away.
The historic Hotel Savoy is located in the elegant Charlottenburg neighborhood. This hotel first opened its doors in 1929, and welcomed famous guests from Greta Garbo to Thomas Mann in its grander days. The 125 rooms are large and traditional, with simple bathrooms, free in-room Wi-Fi, coffee machines, and flat-screen TVs -- though they are starting to show some wear and tear. Perks here include a cigar lounge, several restaurants and bars, and a small fitness center with sauna. A color palette of regal red is found throughout this charming hotel, and though some guests complain of thin walls, service here is still top-notch.

DOVER, Del. (MAY 30, 2008) – Crown Royal and the Jamie McMurray Foundation are teaming up to donate $25,000 to the 7th Annual Drive for Autism Celebrity-Am Golf Outing. Proceeds from the tournament, which was held at the Dupont Country Club in Wilmington, Del., on Thursday, May 29, 2008, will be donated to the Autism Society of Delaware, which is committed to improving the lives of individuals with autism and their families.
The golf tournament kicked off a weekend of activities dedicated to raising awareness for autism, including this weekend's Best Buy 400 Benefiting Student Clubs for Autism Speaks NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Dover International Speedway.
"I can't tell you how great it is to have a sponsor like Crown Royal support a cause for which I am very passionate," said McMurray. "Artie (Kempner) and his team do a great job of putting on this tournament every year and yesterday was no exception. We had a great time on the course.
It's great to know this donation will help some very special families and go a long way toward finding a cure for autism."
This donation marks the latest of multiple efforts made by McMurray and Crown Royal to support autism research including special paint schemes, auctions and a variety of programs through the Jamie McMurray Foundation.

At the last show I saw a Mak90 go for $800. One mag and sling, no box or extras.
At the last show I saw a Mak90 go for $800. One mag and sling, no box or extras.
My advice is look at what are going for on Gunbroker and decide what is right from there. that Mac is probably worth well over 1000 dollars over there. with Feinstein's bill now being introduced people will be scrambling to get anything. I'm surprise you didn't have bullet buttons on them already and we're keeping them in California?
My desire to sell these to a Gunco Member boils down to the culture here, and the Law Abiding Nature of our Members. This is why I am asking what a fair "Non-Gouging" price should be. I do NOT want to sell via GunBroker. The last Pistol I sold was an East German Makarov, Stasi Issue to an FFL C&R holder in Illinois. The package "Broke Open" at the Fed Ex facility in Chicago....Nice Trick, seeing as how it was triple boxed and each box was securely taped closed.
Needless to say, I got a lot of heat from the Chicago Police over this, my Local Sheriff got involved as well; and the buyer got worse. No laws broken, shipped and declared, copy of FFL in ALL THREE of the boxes. It just soured me on GunBroker, even though they did nothing wrong. I suspect that LE Lurkers might have been involved in that fiasco.
I have had nothing but good experiences buying and selling here, and I feel like anyone here who would buy one of these would be the kind of person who would appreciate them....

Man I have no idea on value since everything is going crazy right now, local shops are selling Yugo M70s for 1500 (yes they are selling).
And the only AR type of things I've seen are the basic 16" models going for $2k and stripped lowers are in the 500 range.
I'd be interested in the AR but I have no idea what to offer
"Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem" Ronald Reagan
yea sorry I forgot about them being banned even if they had bullet buttons due to being listed . .
It was clear to me they were in texas.
If your committed to selling it here maybe take offers by PM for a few days an take the best one you feel right about. Im sure what ever you do you will be respected for it.
I feel for you I came from California an know how screwed up it has become out there .
"Reasonable" prices aren't coming back for perhaps a year... perhaps maybe not until the next Prez election... if you need to sell I'd say no better time.
Gunco Member #10
The "original" Boltcutter Rivet Squeezers:
Project Pink - the Pink and Blue AK-74:
remember belson that Bushmaster is a Preban receiver by serial # I believe the L1 serial is preban so I'd say your Ar is worth 1500 -2500 range these days.. your mak is about a grand to 1250 range.. it's crazy right now..but I think things will calm down in a year or so.. Sellers market.. B2B
It makes me sick at heart. This whole thing is fabricated by idiots. AR rifles should not really cost more than $550 for a standard model, and then add for goofy stuff. AK's should not really cost more than $300.
3-5X value is horrible and usurious.
This whole BS issue could be avoided if Obama would shut his stupid ignorant mouth. What a tool.
I am starting to think that maybe I should just send these a another friend out of state. I do not want to feed this beast that Obama has created.

hell as recently as early last year i was building a few el-cheapo ar-15s for as little as $450 and this ain't that plastic lower crap either. hell had i super cheaped out and went with them plumb crazy things the sub-$400 ar was possible with an in spec upper to boot!
but that was last year-- now that same el-cheapo brings upwards of $1,000!
most of us are thinking the same thing you are--which is --
maybe i should sell a few --
and most of us are working class , money and jobs are tight , and our bills --like these ar-15 are going up--
i would like to buy --but the world economy points me in a more to sell than buy--i just can pay the market can bear price.
my personal advice would be to just hang on to um less you have no other option.
one day $1500 in the bank is going to be like $20, but an ar or ak can at least still shoot. one day the still shoot part might be the important thing.
Yesterday, I was in a local gun shop. The owner, who I've known for many years, told me he had noticed the hype falling off lately and thought we'd see the prices start coming down in the next few weeks. If the "assault" weapon ban fails (like it probably will), people won't want to pay the high prices. I could be completely wrong, but I tend to agree with what he said. In 1994, I sold an AR for almost twice what I could have bought it for two months ago. And history often repeats itself.

COLLEGE STATION Police say he was asleep behind the wheel of a running truck. Now, he's facing charges.
19-year-old Bryce Jeffrey Dingler, of College Station, was found by Texas A&M officers sitting in the front seat of his truck early Thursday morning on Northgate. Officers say that Dingler was slumped over in the driver's seat using his phone when they approached him.
According to the arrest report, when officers made contact, they smelled alcohol and Dingler was slurring his speech. They arrested him for Public Intoxication. That's when they found two other driver's licenses in his back pocket. Officers also found a clear baggie with marijuana inside.
He's in jail under $8,200 bond.

Decadent Desserts at Louis XV in Monaco
If you happen to visit the south of France in the summer, a detour to Monaco is a must. Not for the high rolling casinos of Monte Carlo where they filmed all those James Bond movies, or even to ogle the parade of stunning cars circling Place du Casino (though those are both justifiable reasons), but to eat. Specifically to eat dessert at Louis XV-Alain Ducasse in the Hotel de Paris. More

IGNACIO, Colo. (AP) - Volunteers and search crews have resumed their search for a 13-year-old boy who was reported missing Monday.
About 200 people spent time Saturday going door-to-door and handing out flyers in the Bayfield area where Dylan Redwine spent much of his time before moving to Colorado Springs.
The search resumed Sunday and included K-9 teams and dive teams. The boy lives in Colorado Springs but was visiting his father in Vallecito on Thanksgiving break, according to the Durango Herald.
The missing boy is 5 feet tall, 105 pounds, with blond hair, blue eyes and fair complexion.
He was last seen wearing a blue-and-white Duke Blue Devils baseball cap, black Nike T-shirt and black Jordan tennis shoes.

Helix and is part of the unincorporated portion of the County of San Diego. The Mt. Helix/Casa de Oro Area generally consists of commercial and high-density residential core along Campo Road and low-density high-income housing to the north up the slopes of Mt. Helix. To the east, the area gradually becomes more rural and agricultural in the vicinity of Jamacha Road. This community appears to be in a healthy state, and the main threat of change comes from pressures for higher-density residential development in the Mt. Helix Area, and the rural agricultural area near Jamacha Road. Picture from City-data.com Existing residential development varies widely in the Valle de Oro Community Plan Area. The Mt. Helix/Casa de Oro area has some high-density residential uses near Campo Road and Highway 94, but the bulk of this area's residential stock consists of upper-income custom home development (one-half acre minimum) on the slopes of Mt. Helix, and in the flatter, more rural areas to the east near Jamacha Road. This eastern portion near Jamacha Road is in an area where low-density residential and agricultural uses mesh well.

Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson Is Wrong About Punk
While punk isn't much better in terms of the aesthetic associated with it, the people playing it are still often genuine deviants, freaks and transients. There are punk shows regularly happening where people light their genitals on fire, hurdle giant pieces of broken glass into the audience, or huff glue out of a bowling ball. In metal, maybe once every four years some band throws a goat skull and gets sued immediately after. But in punk rock, this shit happens regularly. And it's absolutely fascinating -- but you don't hear about it.
Why not? Because you have to know people in order to find it. Yeah, you can spend hours researching punk blogs and downloading obscure cassette tapes, but then what? By the time any of these releases are available for download, about half of these bands have broken up. Those that are together rarely publicize their tour dates, and many of them don't play legitimate venues. In order to know where to see a band that paints obscenities on themselves in the middle of their set, you have to get involved. You're forced to talk to people -- not only find out where shows are happening, but to help you navigate through the immense terrain that encompasses 40 years of obscure rock & roll. There aren't PR companies that distribute the latest underground punk record to 50 different review sites. The easiest way to learn about punk music is to talk to people who are really into it.
Although there are people in any scene who use music solely as a place to drink and stare at their iPhones, the average punk community contains an oddly large amount of dedicated men and women who are proud to screw up their jobs, lose money booking bands and stay up late with violent drunks for the sake of propagating art. And that's where Bruce Dickinson has it wrong -- neglecting the fact that there are (and always have been) people out there who are proud to be punk losers because it means they care about something bigger than themselves.
Besides, I'd rather have a few drinks and bike around at night rather than spend a few years learning how to fly a fucking plane.

The New Nokia 7500, Not for Luke Skywalker
This is the Darth Vader camera phone from Nokia. Just kidding. It's the Nokia 7500 Prism, one of the latest to come out of the Finnish company's design factory.
This one was spotted in a fashion show in China yesterday along with a bevy of other new Nokia phones: the 8600, 8800 Sirocco, 6110 navigator, 5700 XpressMusic, 6500 classic, 6500 slider and the 3500.
The Nokia 7500 may look like it came out of the Evil Empire but many people actually like it, just as there are many fans of Mr. Vader himself.
The zany phone sports pretty normal specs – 2MP camera, a microSD slot, a QVGA screen and its own S40 operating system.

Jimmy LaRiche and Hyperlite spent a lot of time this offseason re-creating JL's signature model wakeboard boot. Jimmy likes a boot that is supportive but still offers a good amount of flex. The 2014 AJ accomplished both of those prerequisites with it's all new 2-part construction and integrated heel hold down. The lower cuff makes it possible to tweak out your tricks just a little bit further and the street inspired design makes these boots look so good you won't want to take them off.
Key Features:

– TNA is expecting a solid attendance for tonight's iMPACT! in Tampa. Hulk Hogan has done quite a bit of publicity in the town over the last few days and it has given the company a lot of coverage.
– Shark Boy is backstage at Impact and is expected to work tonight's taping. It is possible (though not confirmed) that he may be playing Suicide, though it could also be Christopher Daniels and Kazarian, who have both portrayed the character. It's also rumored he'll be James Storm's tag-team partner.
– Gunner is also backstage and will work tonight's show. He has only been used on-and-off in the past few months.
– Tonight on iMPACT! Wrestling, it will be revealed whether TNA Wrestling cornerstone AJ Styles has turned his back on the company and the fans. The Aces and Eights have announced that on the show, they will hold a "Patching In" ceremony to officially welcome Styles intoto the gang.
TNA Wrestling President Dixie Carter posted a message on Twitter hyping the show, and hopes Styles will come to his senses. She wrote, "In Tampa for our 1st TNA Show EVER in that great city. #ImpactLIVE! going to be big tonight. @AJStylesOrg needs to make the right choice."
