Peruvian Protest against Pluspetrol Turns Deadly
February 12, 2015
One person died and dozens more were injured after a protest against the Argentine energy company Pluspetrol turned violent late Tuesday night. A 25-year-old man, who was identified as Ever Pérez Huamán, passed away Wednesday morning after receiving a bullet wound to the abdomen. Police representative Edwin Rojas has said an investigation is underway to find out who fired the shot.
The protest began on Monday, led by the Frente de Defensa Ambiental (Environmental Defense League) in the Pichanaki district in central Peru, and escalated late on Tuesday when, according to Peru's interior ministry, over 500 people blockaded the roads leading to a Pluspetrol office in Pichanaki, destroyed two tents, and stole a water pump. Police forces reportedly responded by using tear gas to quell the crowd, and protesters then reportedly attacked with stones, spears and guns. Protesters say that the energy company contaminates their land and rivers.
However, representatives of Pluspetrol have dismissed the accusations of environmental contamination. "It is a very basic exploration; we haven't drilled, we haven't contaminated anything, there is no possibility of a spill because we're not producing anything," said Pluspetrol spokesperson Daniel Guerra.
Pluspetrol has been working in Peru since 2001 and has been conducting exploratory work on lot 108 in Pinchanaki since 2012. The nearly 3 million acres of land comprising the lot is a key excavating site, and experts have compared the quantity of gas reserves available to those of Camisea, which supplies half of Peru's electric energy.
Despite the promise of large quantities of natural resources, energy companies and local farmers and Indigenous groups continue to clash in Peru. Pluspetrol has been the focus of tension in two separate areas of the Peruvian Amazon since January of this year. Protestors claim they are demonstrating against President Ollanta Humala, who as part of his 2011 presidential campaign promised to defend the Amazon region against exploitation by the extractive industries.

Colombia Submits Action Plan to EITI Secretariat
October 14, 2014
The extraction of natural resources, such as oil, gas, metals and minerals, is supposed to boost the economy and improve the quality of life of the residents of resource rich countries. However, in too many cases, resource extraction has led to social inequality, environmental degradation and corruption. In places like Colombia, it aggravates conflict.
The global Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative Standard (EITI Standard) is an international standard for the mining and hydrocarbon industries. By establishing a participatory approach that ensures the collaboration of governments, private sector actors, and civil society organizations, the EITI Standard promotes a fairer, more transparent accounting of resources.
The EITI was launched in 2002 by then-Prime Minister Tony Blair of the United Kingdom to promote accountability and transparency in both the mining and hydrocarbon sectors and to the fight against the so-called "resource curse." According to EITI Board Chair Clare Short and the head of the EITI Secretariat, Jonas Moberg, "public understanding of government revenues and expenditure over time could help public debate and inform choice of appropriate and realistic options for sustainable development."
As of September 2014, 46 countries—working in collaboration with more than 80 private supporting companies and 21 partner organizations such as the Inter-American Development Bank—had implemented the initiative.
New AQ Special Section Offers Broad Recommendations for Extractive Activity
January 29, 2013
Natural resource extraction is a key contributor to economic growth in various parts of the Western Hemisphere, but governments, businesses and civil society are faced with how to improve extractive activity and its effects on broad-based socioeconomic development in respective communities. A special section in the Winter 2013 issue of Americas Quarterly, released today, includes photo essays and analysis to look at these challenges and compare the potentials and pitfalls for the natural resource industry in Chile, Colombia and Peru in four critical areas: community relations and consulta previa (prior consultation); value-added economic development; the nature of governance and public management; and the environment.
In the case of consulta previa, although Convention 169 of the International Labour Organization—on the right of Indigenous and tribal peoples to prior consultation—has been ratified by 20 countries, most of which are Latin American nations, the accord is still subject to competing interpretations by community leaders and governments.To maximize success and mitigate conflict, the AQ special section urges all stakeholders to view consulta previa as a regular process throughout the life of the exploration or exploitation project, and for businesses to broaden the scope of consultative mechanisms beyond extraction's original impact zone.
The special section also suggests that governments and businesses work together to ensure a positive impact of extractive industry over national economies. By leveraging tax and royalty resources, governments can attract investment and promote local innovation. It cites Chile as a model in terms of its Fondo de Innovación para la Competitividad (Innovation Fund for Competitiveness). However, clear priorities for social policy and investment must be in place to ensure an equitable resource distribution.
In addition, despite some progress in economic and community development over the life of extractive industry in the three countries, governments and businesses still lag behind in protecting the environment from the negative effects of mining exploration. The AQ section asks governments to boost the capacity and strengthen the authority of federal environment ministries and for businesses to monitor energy consumption levels and seek creative ways to reduce them.
In addition to the photo essays and analysis, an exclusive AQ documentary looks at a proposed project by the coal mining company Cerrejón to move an entire river 16 miles (26 kilometers) and the effects that would have on the Wayúu Indigenous community that lives alongside it .
Monday Memo: AQ's Top Expected Stories for the Week of August 6
August 6, 2012
Top stories this week are likely to include: India-CELAC dialogue; Jamaica marks its independence; impact of the Antamina spill; Repsol to meet with Venezuela on YPF; and responses to Petrobras' poor quarterly release.
India-CELAC Dialogue: Tomorrow, Indian Foreign Minister S. M. Krishna will host a troika of high-level diplomats from the Comunidad de Estados Latinoamericanos y Caribeños (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States—CELAC) in New Delhi with the objective being to deepen relations with Latin America. As Chile currently holds the CELAC presidency, Chilean Foreign Minister Alfredo Moreno will lead the delegation that will also include Venezuelan Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro and Cuban Vice-Foreign Minister Rogelio Sierra. According to India's foreign ministry, India's trade in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) was over "$25 billion in 2011 and cumulative investments are estimated to be $16 billion mostly in hydrocarbons, minerals, agriculture, pharma and IT;" still, there is "vast untapped potential" for further collaboration. This presents an enormous opportunity for Latin America, notes AQ Senior Editor Jason Marczak: "Greater trade and investment linkages with India will be critical for protecting the region against any decrease in demand caused by a slowing Chinese economy. India represents a growing, untapped middle class." For more on LAC-India relations, read "The Other BRIC in Latin America: India" from the Spring 2011 AQ. As well, AS/COA notes that diplomatic ties between LAC and India have expanded; between 2002 and 2009 the number of LAC embassies in New Delhi grew from 12 to 18.
Jamaica Rings in Independence: Today Jamaica celebrates 50 years of independence from the United Kingdom. Queen Elizabeth II remains the island's monarch, but Jamaican Prime Minister Portia Simpson-Miller pledges to loosen ties with Great Britain and make her country a republic. Doing so would maintain Jamaica's status as a British commonwealth, but would remove the Queen as Jamaica's head of state and have the prime minister become president. Reflecting on 50 years of independence, Simpson-Miller told TIME Magazine that "despite our challenges, I think we've done very well on balance our first 50 years […] Jamaica is more than just the 'brand' the world recognizes so well; it's a place of pride for the people who live here, its educational institutions, its sports achievements, and its science and technology growth."
Impact of Peruvian Mine Spill: A toxic copper concentrate spilled at the Antamina mine in the Peruvian region of Ancash on July 25 has made over 100 people ill. Antamina's environmental director has disputed that the material was toxic, instead referring to it as a "dangerous substance that requires a particular handling but not necessarily toxic." Still, on Sunday, the company was fined for not activating its response plan to the accident. Copper has been instrumental to Peru's economic ascent, accounting for 60 percent of export income, but "environmental protection has been relatively lax" in the Andean country according to the Associated Press. As more details emerge this week, will the government take additional action?
Repsol Representatives to Meet with Venezuelan Officials on Thursday: Officials from Spanish firm Repsol S.A. will meet with Venezuelan leaders on Thursday to discuss Repsol's dispute with Argentine firm YPF after Argentina's government seized a majority share of YPF, formerly held in a joint venture with Repsol. Venezuela has pledged to invest in Argentina to boost its oil production and desires an amicable resolution to the conflict with Repsol and the Spanish government. Repsol has investments in Venezuelan oil and gas fields, according to Bloomberg.
Fallout from Disappointing Petrobras Report: Petrobras posted its worst quarterly report since 1999, registering a R$1.35 billion ($663 million) loss in the second quarter, versus a R$10.94 billion—then equivalent to $6.86 billion—gain one year earlier. Petrobras President Maria Graça Foster blamed the loss in part to an "excessive depreciation" of the real against the dollar. What steps will be taken in response to this report?
Peru Declares State of Emergency after Mine Protest Violence
May 29, 2012
Peru's government declared a 30-day state of emergency in the southern Andean province of Espinar yesterday after clashes between anti-mining protesters and police officers. The state of emergency suspends a number of civil liberties, including the right to freedom of assembly. It also grants local police officers responsibility over public order.
Protestors have been demonstrating against the Tinaya copper mine in Espinar, near Cuzco, since last week, blocking highway access to the mine and halting production. Violence escalated last weekend, resulting in the deaths of two civilian protestors and the injury of 46 police officers on Sunday. An additional 30 police officers were injured on Monday. Interior Minister Wilver Calle, who announced the deaths yesterday, did not explain how they occurred other than to say that police were forced to open fire in self-defense.
Protestors claim that operation of the Tinaya mine is polluting two local rivers and damaging the environment. They also say the mine has not contributed sufficiently to the local economy, and are demanding that the mine owner, Xtrata, increase the amount of royalties it provides the local government to 30 percent, from 3 percent. Xtrata, a Swiss-based company and the world's fourth-largest copper producer, has denied the pollution allegations.
This is not the first time President Ollanta Humala has resorted to declaring a state of emergency to end anti-mining protests. Last December, his government issued a state of emergency in the northern province of Cajamarca in response to protests against the $4.8 billion Conga gold mining project. That project, owned largely by U.S.-based Newmont Mining Co., has been suspended pending further negotiations over the protection of highland water sources.
New Mining Laws Are Being Drafted, says Haitian Prime Minister
May 17, 2012
Newly sworn-in Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe said the Haitian government is drafting legislation to regulate the country's nascent mining industry. His statement on Tuesday came shortly after the Associated Press reported findings in the northeastern mountain region of precious metals—including gold, silver and copper—potentially worth $20 billion.
According to Lamothe, the new legislation will lay out rules allocating a portion of royalties to the Haitian government and putting in place protections for the people and environment that could be affected by the mining. "The most important thing," he said, "is to have the correct mining law." The legislation is expected to be sent to Parliament soon.
Gold was last gathered in Haiti by the Spanish in the 1500s. After they moved on to Mexico, Haiti's reserves remained largely unknown. In the 1970s United Nations geologists documented notable pockets of gold and copper, but foreigners remained unwilling to invest in the industry within Haiti because of the country's long history of corruption and instability. Since the 2010 earthquake, though, U.S. and Canadian companies have invested $30 million in exploratory drilling, worker camps, new roads, and laboratory studies.
Haiti's current mining laws date back to 1976, although in 1996 the firm SOMINE negotiated permits with President René Preval to extract metals out of the mountains. Lamothe said the legislation currently being drafted is designed to benefit Haiti while also attracting foreign investment with the promise of profiting from the mines. He said he hopes Haiti will receive "as much as possible" of the mining revenue "without hampering the profit motive of the mining company.
Lamothe officially became prime minister on Monday, after Parliament approved his Cabinet and policy plan. He filled a vacuum left by former Prime Minister Garry Conille, who resigned three months ago after only four months on the job, due to differences with President Michel Martelly. In addition to the mining legislation, Lamothe emphasized social investment, including garbage clean-up, better roads and programs to help mothers living in poor neighborhoods in the capital city of Port-au-Prince.

> Louisiana Legislature Passes Speed Trap Reform
Louisiana Legislature Passes Speed Trap Reform
Small towns in Louisiana must give state all revenue from highway speeding tickets issued for driving less than 10 MPH over the limit.
The Louisiana State Legislature last week sent Governor Bobby Jindal (R) a bill that will stop small towns from padding their budgets by issuing minor speeding tickets on interstate highways. In adopting the measure, state lawmakers put themselves on the record for the first time in clear support of red light cameras and speed cameras.
State Representative Hollis Downs (R-Ruston) has spent the past four years negotiating a compromise with local officials and law enforcement agencies to shut down speed traps. The state's Legislative Auditor found fifteen cities made more than half their budget from speeding tickets (
view report
). Under the bill introduced by Downs, non-home rule jurisdictions would not be allowed to retain any revenue from speeding tickets issued for violations of between one and ten MPH over the speed limit on an interstate. Instead, the state will pocket the revenue.
The state Senate approved Downs' measure unanimously and the House with a 72-13 vote. During the House discussion, however, lawmakers rejected two separate amendments that would have expanded the bill to put an end to the use of photo enforcement by local jurisdictions to raise revenue. Representative Jeff Arnold (D-New Orleans) first proposed to ban photo ticketing outright.
"With this amendment we basically would join
fourteen other states across this country
that have said, 'You know what, there's no due process,'" Arnold (D-New Orleans) said. "Our constituents don't get a fair hearing. The legislatures in fourteen states and their governors have decided, 'We're not going to do this at all; Big Brother is not coming here.'"
House Transportation Committee Chairman Nita Hutter (R-Chalmette) strongly objected to the amendment, insisting that red light cameras and speed cameras are positive tools.
"Yes this about some money, we come up here and do this all the time," Hutter said. "We set these fees. If this is a money grab, then every other ticket that you write for every other violation is a money grab if you look at it like that... This is a safety measure, that's all it is."
With opposition of Downs and Hutter, Arnold's camera ban failed by a 56-26 margin. Arnold followed up with a second amendment. He proposed to mandate that automated ticketing could only be implemented after the affirmative vote of residents in a referendum. Arnold cited the example of the
city of Sulphur where 85 percent of voters rejected speed cameras
. A greater number of state House members spoke in favor of the referendum idea.
"Wouldn't that be the most American, the most democratic thing to do?" Representative M.J. "Mert" Smiley, Jr. (R-Port Vincent) asked.
Nonetheless, lawmakers rejected the referendum amendment by a 50-38 vote. Previously, the state House had adopted legislation
expanding the use of photo enforcement
under the guise of "restrictions" on automated ticketing.
Governor Jindal is expected to sign the anti-speed trap measure into law, a copy of which is available in a 10k PDF file at the source link below.

While fans eagerly await the first official trailer for DUMB AND DUMBER TO, debuting later today on NBC's 'Tonight Show,' a new poster has been revealed for the highly anticipated sequel hitting theaters on November 14th. Check it out below!
The film stars Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels, Rachel Melvin, Kathleen Turner, Brady Bluhm, Laurie Holden, Steve Tom and Rob Riggle. In the sequel, Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne embark on a road trip to find Harry's long-lost son.
Peter and Bobby Farrelly return to helm the DUMB AND DUMBER sequel, as well as rewrite the original script written by Sean Anders and John Morris. Oscar-winning HUNGER GAMES star Jennifer Lawrence has signed on for a small cameo in the upcoming sequel as the younger version of Kathleen Turner. THE WALKING DEAD's Laurie Holden, Turner, and Rob Riggle are also featured in the film.
The original buddy comedy was a box office hit, grossing $127,175,374 in the United States, and $247,275,374 worldwide, and topping the holiday season film gross. While initial reception towards the film was mixed, Dumb and Dumber has since obtained a cult following and has spawned a TV animated series, and a 2003 prequel.

Political reform group Unlock Democracy has described the Lobbying Bill, which will now become law in the UK, as "a huge blow to democracy".
The Bill targets charities, campaigners, NGOs and unions, (restricting their freedom of speech as non-party organisations at election times) while letting most rich, corporate lobbyists off the hook, points out Unlock Democracy.
Director Alexandra Strudwick declared: "We may not have won the recent votes [in the House of Lords] but the campaign has produced some valuable results. The Civil Society Commission brought together more than 160 groups to fight the Bill, including deadly enemies like the Countryside Alliance and the League Against Cruel Sports!
"The government was forced to offer a number of concessions in the face of overwhelming opposition. For example, the registration threshold for non-party organisations has been doubled from the government's original proposals, meaning the smallest campaign groups will escape much of the new bureaucracy.
"Massive cuts to election spending limits in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have been scaled back from the original proposals, meaning that campaigners can keep fighting for good causes across the UK. "
These changes are due to the hard work of many organisations, acknowledged Ms Strudwick.
"We will keep working to limit the impact of the bill on charities and campaigners even after it reaches the statute book.
"These proposals were forced through Parliament with no public support, no consultation, and precious little time for scrutiny. This is not how law should be made; it underlines why we must keep fighting on other fronts for democratic reform.
"In the run up to the General Election in 2015, Unlock Democracy will be asking how politics should really work and how citizens can have a real say in shaping laws and dictating policy."

Spartan Race/Tough Mudder
Next spring I'm doing a gauntlet of Ragnar run, then Bone Frog two weeks later, then Tough Mudder two weeks after that. And I don't know when the Boston Super Spartan will be scheduled but I pre-regged for that and since Amesbury is in August and Fenway in November I would assume sometime around the spring. (I'm going for Trifecta next year).
Anyone who runs them have any prep tips? I've just been basically running and weight lifting but still always get the penalty on monkey bars & rope climbs (Basically anything where you have to lift up your body weight and can't use your legs at all. I'm like 205 pounds and can't really do pullups, so I guess that would be a start).
Also have no idea how to train for the spear throw.

Grudge Match: Jennifer Aniston vs. Angelina Jolie
We compare two pop-culture subjects to see which you like better. To be included in next week's tally, go to knoxnews.com/entertainment to vote for your favorite before noon on Monday. This week's match:
JENNIFER ANISTON vs. ANGELINA JOLIE
Yeah. We've been there and done that - kind of like Brad Pitt - but we figure it's time to revisit. After all, Jen just did a big ol' interview with Oprah and is quoted in a magazine article as saying Angie is "uncool." So, yeah, these two aren't exactly the best of friends: No surprise, if you believe the speculation that Angie took Jen's man, the aforementioned Bradford. Choose sides.
Jen: Perky, sexy and dumped by her hubby for another woman.
Angie: Dark, mysterious, eccentric and, uh, weird.
Jen: Vince Vaughn, John Mayer (who is also her current love) and, of course, Ross
Angie: Her brother (we're not spreading rumors, but, uh, yuck) and that guy from "Sling Blade."
Jen: "Friends" - only the greatest sitcom about six friends living in New York that has ever been invented. For now.
Angie: Playing Lara Croft - only the greatest female superhero from a videogame, ever. For now.
Jen: She's rich, beautiful, talented and, yet, she can't hold onto a man? Something smells funny here.
Angie: We dropped her like a bad habit when she wore a capsule of Billy Bob Thornton's blood around her neck.
LAST WEEK: SHARPAY vs. GABRIELLA (from "High School Musical 3")
Our pick: Sharpay. We occasionally like the bad girls.
Your pick from knoxnews.com/entertainment: Sharpay, with 55 percent of the vote.

GREEN CITY A court injunction against new bicycle projects in San Francisco (see "Stationary biking," 5/16/07) could get lifted next year, thanks to environmental studies released Nov. 26 and headed to the Board of Supervisors next month. But it's a subtle, technical change in how city officials analyze traffic impacts that could have a more far-reaching implications.
It's called Level of Service Reform and it would change the triggering mechanism for when projects need to conduct full-blown environmental impact reports, an expensive and time-consuming requirement that led to the three-year bike project injunction. And LOS reform has been rattling around the city bureaucracy long before the Guardian wrote about it two-and-a-half years ago ("The slow lane," 5/17/06).
"It's either wonderful that I started working on this in 2002, or it's embarrassing," Rachel Hiatt of the San Francisco Transportation Authority told a Nov. 19 meeting of TransForm (formerly the Transportation and Land Use Coalition) on the subject.
The California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 requires EIRs for projects with potentially significant environmental impacts, as is the case when the level of service (LOS) at an intersection could be changed. LOS is measured by the amount of time it takes a car to pass through a given area. The time consumed by the car is often referred to as control delay. Measured by grades A through F, control delay per motor vehicle times of up to 30 seconds (E grade) are acceptable in San Francisco.
Designating sections of certain busy streets to accommodate a bike lane would affect the control delay, thereby earning the area a lower LOS grade. Since cars now essentially have priority over alternative forms of transportation, many potential bike lanes have been stranded by the LOS standard.
City officials are working to replace the LOS measure with a new one based on auto trips generated (ATG), using 1 ATG as the threshold for an EIR. Projects that generate no car trips will not be seen as having any environmental impact, thereby moving through the approval process quicker and cheaper.
"LOS needs to be taken out of the picture," Hiatt said.
The argument for LOS replacement is not solely about the need to accommodate other transit modes, but about lowering costs and making government more efficient. Hiatt outlined other problems with the current measure as the failure to accurately gauge environmental impact, failure to reflect the city's "transit-first" policy priorities, and an inefficient CEQA review process.
Development advisor Mike Yarne of the San Francisco Mayor's Office of Economic and Workforce Development said that if the city wants to topple LOS, the Transit Authority has a case to make. "What the TA needs to show is that ATG is a more effective proxy to calculate environmental harm," Yarne said.
The city is also considering instituting a mitigation fee to be paid by project sponsors to compensate for environmental impact. Proceeds from the fee will be used to enhance all existing modes of transit, pedestrian safety, and could even include planting trees.
"The fee will go toward making people move faster," Yarne said.
Yarne admits that it could be a little difficult to make both changes at once. San Francisco will be the first city in California to create a mitigation fee, so other cities are taking notes.
"It would be quite an accomplishment if we could make it happen. It's never been done," explained Yarne, noting that most cities have come to recognize that CEQA does not work well in urban areas.

The Great Synchronisation : tracking the trade collapse with high-frequency data
While several culprits have been proposed to explain the current trade collapse (e.g. the credit crunch, global production chains, generalised loss of confidence), the great synchronisation underlying the collapse suggests that it is very probably their interaction, rather than each individual effect, that might best explain why international trade has taken such an epic hit in this global crisis. The high-frequency pattern of trade flows also reveals systemic propagation effects during the crisis that would be interesting to analyze further, as well as new patterns in the structure of trade flows. All these issues open interesting research questions for international trade economists.

After airstrikes, France will use land forces to dislodge Islamist insurgents in former colony
BAMAKO, Mali
After a punishing bombing campaign failed to halt the advance of al-Qaeda-linked fighters, France pledged Tuesday to triple the size of its force in Mali, sending in hundreds more troops as it prepared for a land assault to dislodge the militants occupying the northern half of the country.
The move reversed France's earlier insistence on providing only aerial and logistic support for a military intervention led by African ground troops.
France plunged headfirst into the conflict in its former colony last week, bombarding the insurgents' training camps, arms depots and safe houses in an effort to shatter the Islamist domination of a region many fear could become a launchpad for terrorist attacks on the West and a magnet for extremists from around the world.
Despite five days of airstrikes the rebels have extended their reach, taking over a strategically important military camp in the central Malian town of Diabaly on Monday.
On Tuesday, France announced it was increasing the number of troops from 800 to 2,500. The offensive was to have been led by thousands of African troops pledged by Mali's neighbors, but they have yet to arrive, making it increasingly apparent France will be leading the attack rather than playing a supporting role.
French President Francois Hollande told RFI radio early Tuesday that he believed France could succeed in ousting the extremists in a week. By afternoon he had outlined a far longer-term commitment. "We have one objective: To make sure that when we leave, when we end this intervention, there is security in Mali, legitimate leaders, an electoral process and the terrorists no longer threaten its territory," he said during a stop in the United Arab Emirates.
"We are confident about the speed with which we will be able to stop the aggressors," he added.
Supplies for the French forces arrived in a steady stream Tuesday, part of the enormous logistics operation needed to support thousands of troops in the baking Sahara sun, a terrain the Islamists have operated in for nearly a decade. Transport planes bringing military hardware landed in quick succession on the short airstrip: A giant Antonov, two C-17 Boeings and a C-160 disgorged equipment in preparation for a land offensive to try to seize back the northern territory held since April by a trio of rebel groups affiliated with al-Qaeda.
French troops carried boxes of munitions as armored personnel carriers lined up at the airport's gasoline pump. Roughly 40 armored vehicles were driven in overnight by French soldiers stationed in Ivory Coast. They include the ERC-90, a six-wheeled vehicle mounted with a 90 mm cannon. Dozens of French Marines camped out on the concrete floor of an airport hangar.
Although at least 13 countries have offered support to the Mali mission, only France so far has boots on the ground. On Tuesday, U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta reiterated the Obama administration's position, saying no American troops will be sent. The U.S. is helping with communications and intelligence-gathering, and may allow American aircraft to help with transport.
A convoy of French armored cars was spotted late Tuesday heading toward Diabaly, the strategic town seized by the Islamists a day earlier, said a resident of the nearby town of Segou, who declined to be named out of fears for her safety.
The Islamists appeared to be mostly equipped with Russian-made machine guns and other small arms, said a French Marine adjutant who gave only his first name, Nicolas, in keeping with military regulations. He added, however, that the French force would not underestimate the insurgents.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Naples Equestrian Challenge, Inc., Naples, FL, USA
Naples Equestrian Challenge is so amazing. NEC works with Special Needs Children and Adults working with horses on occupational type skills. the child or adult is supported by 2 sidewalker (volunteers) one volunteer on each side of the horse and a leader to assist the child with the horse. It takes alot of dedication for the the child and manpower of voluteers. Seeing a Special Needs child face light up when they see the horse and seeing the parent face light up when these kids are in a lesson keeps the volunteers coming back for more. The child or adult progresses so .. working on balance skills in the saddle, verbal and directional skills, reinning the horse where to go. Besides being so important to the child and adult we work with building their skills and confidence in themselves, it is heart warming in these times to meet so many volunteers dedicated to this program to helping these kids and adults. Everyday I am there it fills me with happiness seeing these how happy it makes these kids and the volunteers and horses who work with them.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) - Marshall freshman men's basketball
player Matt Walls could miss the rest of the season after breaking
his hand.
The injury occurred in Saturday's win over East Carolina. Walls
had his right hand in a cast this week and coach Donnie Jones says
he'll miss at least four weeks. If Walls returns, he could be back
in time for the Conference USA tournament starting March 12 in
Memphis, Tenn.
Walls has made six starts this season and is averaging seven
points per game.

Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling 2012, 9:49 doi:10.1186/1742-4682-9-49Published: 24 November 2012
A detailed theoretical model that combines the conventional viscoelastic continuum description of cell motion with a dynamic active stress is presented. The model describes the ameboid cells movement comprising of protrusion and adhesion of the front edge followed by detachment and movement of the tail. Unlike the previous viscoelastic descriptions in which the cell movement is steady, the presented model describes the "walking" of the cell in response to specific active stress components acting separately on the front and rear of the cell. In this locomotive model first the tail of the cell is attached to the substrate and active stress is applied to the front of the cell. Consequently, the stress in the tail increases. When the stress in the tail exceeds a critical value, namely critical stress, the conditions are updated so that the front is fixed and the tail of the cell is detached from the substrate and moves towards the front. Consequently, the stress in the tail decreases. When the stress goes to zero, the starting conditions become active and the process continues. At start the cell is stretched and its length is increased as the front of cell migrates more than the rear. However, after several steps the front and rear move equally and the cell length stays constant during the movement. In this manuscript we analyzed such cell dynamics including the length variation and moving velocity. Finally, by considering this fact that at the single-cell level, interactions with the extracellular environment occur on a nanometer length scale, the value of critical stress was estimated.

|Pregnancy before and after the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel diseases: retrospective case-control study.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17376049 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|BACKGROUND AND AIM: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) commonly affect women during the reproductive years. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the reproductive histories of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) considering pregnancies occurring before and after the diagnosis. METHOD: Case-control study evaluating IBD patients, interviewed by questionnaire about outcome of pregnancy and course of disease. RESULTS: A total of 502 pregnancies from 199 patients in the prediagnosis group and 121 pregnancies from 90 patients in the post-diagnosis group were respectively compared with 996 and 204 pregnancies recorded in a control population. In prediagnosis pregnancies, CD was associated with increased risk of preterm delivery (odds ratio [OR] 4.62, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.77-7.73; P < 0.001 vs controls and OR 3.52, 95% CI 1.75-7.07; P < 0.001 vs UC) and lower birthweight (P < 0.001 vs UC and controls). In post-diagnosis pregnancies, the rate of live births was lower, but not statistically significant in IBD (OR 0.22, 95% CI 0.04-1.25; P = 0.08) and the birthweight was significantly lower in CD than in UC (P < 0.03) and in controls (P < 0.02). In post-diagnosis pregnancies, a higher incidence of congenital abnormalities was found in IBD patients (5.5% vs 0.0%). The spontaneous abortion rate and therapeutic abortions were significantly higher in post than in prediagnosis pregnancies. Neither disease activity at conception nor treatment appeared to influence the outcome of pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS: CD in the preclinical phase has some influence on pregnancy. In patients with IBD our data suggest that conception should not be discouraged. However, because of a modest increase in mild congenital abnormalities and abortions rates, pregnancy in IBD patients should be closely monitored.

Proin 529 532
WORKS!!! thank goodness I have had my Samoyed for 10 1/2 years. She is diabetic, insuline dependent, blind and has recently become incontinent. My vet prescribed Proin at a VERY high price. :/ I was told to call PetMeds. What a great group of CARING people helping with our pets. The medicine TOTALLY works. Aphro doesn't love the taste so much but she takes them just fine. I am so happy that this is working so well..... THANK YOU 1800 Pet Meds! 05/24/2011
FANTASTIC - WORKED!! I did a little internet research, and decided to try this when our Border Collie (age 14) began to have incontinence when sleeping. When awake, she was OK, used the doggy door, no problem. About 3 days after starting her on the 25 mg. dose (once daily with her food), the incontinence STOPPED completely. I'm amazed and thankful!! No more bed washing, and carpet cleaning every day, and the odor is gone from the house - OUTSTANDING. And working with 1-800 is ALWAYS a pleasure. Their customer service is FANTASTIC and FAST. THANKS!! 05/12/2011
Great Solution My Ruby is a large Great Pyrenees/Airedale mix (94 lbs.). She is two years old and began "wetting her bed" after she was spayed. The Proin has totally eliminated that problem. We are very happy with this solution. 04/20/2011
Great Meds! My dog has been on Proin since he was 9 months old, he is now 4 years old. He was diagnosed with a loose sphincter muscle, which is why the urine would leak out. My two comments are....the sure fire way we have given him Proin for the past several years is whole in PUMPKIN PUREE on a fork! He will not take it on a spoon or with applesauce, yogurt, cheese, etc. This is great because it is healthy for him anyways. And my other comment is, there are times maybe once or twice a year when we have to bump his medicine up for a week or two because it seems to ware off for him. So, instead of doing a 1/2 tab in the morning and a whole tab at night- we will do a whole tab two times a day. This has seemed to work well for us. 04/13/2011
PROIN product review: PROIN product review: One of the most common problems seen in spayed or neutered pets, especially as they get older is the development of urine incontinence, where pets will sometimes leak urine involuntarily while laying, sleeping and even walking sometimes. In my 17 years of medical practice, our profession has looked into many drugs to help treat this frustrating yet common condition. While some of these alternative drugs have helped, they are sometimes very expensive, while in other cases side effects can occur. So most conventional veterinarians will usually reach first for one of two drugs to treat this frustrating problem. Either low dose estrogen/hormonal therapy, or more commonly a prescription drug like proin. The main ingredient(called phenylproponolamine) helps tighten the smooth muscle tone around the urethra thus helping to minimize this frustrating involuntary leaking of urine from the bladder. While it is commonly prescribed twice daily by many veterinarians, I have found it to be as equally effective when given once daily at a dose of 3/4 mg per per pound. I even saw a journal article touting this once day use at this dose over the more common twice daily use. Many clients will notice immediate relief, while others can take several days to a week or two. However I am often able to taper this drug down to every other day or even a once or twice weekly on rare cases, while others need it daily to control the urine leaking. It is very important, however for animal guardians to have a urinary tract infection ruled out first, before starting a drug like this, as well as rule out a genetic anatomic problem of the bladder or urinary tract, if the patient is a young puppy under one year of age, as well as masses/tumors in older animals. If a thorough workup fails to detect an underlying cause of the leaking then certainly ask your vet about possibly writing a prescription for this often effective medication. The only rare side effects I have seen are digestive upset and vomiting in some animals, as well as in some pets a more rapid heart rate, due to the main ingredient in this medicine called phenylproponolamine. In fact, in human medicine, this drug was taken off the market because of worries and risks of cardiovascular issues in human patients. I have not seen this to be a major factor in veterinary medicine, but if you have an older pet with either a heart murmur or heart ailment , or some other illness that might be associated with high blood pressure like kidney disease or Cushings disease, then it is probably best to have your vet monitor the blood pressure both before and if he/she decides to start this medication. And while it does come in a chewable tablet that most dogs will accept, I have found palatability to be a problem in some dogs in taking it, even with clever disguising in treats. My overall rating of this product is a 4, its efficacy a 4.5, and its ease of use/taste a 3. , 12/29/2008

What is the difference in Proin and Bethanechol Chloride?
Answer:Bethanechol (Urecholine) is used to treat urinary retention typically as a result of surgery or medications. In other words, the patient has difficulty urinating. Proin on the other hand is used for urinary incontinence. The patient can urinate, but there is some loss of bladder control causing urine leakage.
Answer:I treat it like a pill (open and place as far back as possible)- hold mouth tight straight into the air and rub throat till swallowed, followed by a treat. My dog is a medium pit mix though- so can handle the size of the pill. Don't get the sense it needs to be chewed, it works just fine this way. It gets easier with practice.
Answer:My dog won't chew the tablets so I stick them in braunschweiger.
Answer:Proin does not have to be chewed. It is a liver flavored chewable tablet to make it more palatable for a dog to take. If your pet is not chewing the tablet you can break the Proin into smaller pieces and feed it to your pet that way.

Proin and Benadryl
My dog is allergic to Proin. It causes her to break out in hives, swell at the mouth and tongue, and she has trouble breathing. My vet suggested that I give her a benadryl tablet with every Proin. This does work, she has been on it for about a year with no problems. Is there any long term side effects from taking Benadryl BID everyday?
Answer:Giving your pet Benadryl twice a day every day should not cause any harm. HOWEVER, the reaction your pet is having to Proin is very troubling. Even with giving Benadryl to control symptoms, the symptoms you describe would cause me to advise someone to stop giving the medication. There are other options for urinary incontinence including estriol and DES. You may want to consider those options.
I just picked up a new bottle of Proin from my vet and noticed that the pills no long have that strong smell like they use to. Also since I starting giving them to her incontinence is back. Could I have a bad batch?

Proin and UTI's
My boxer's appetitie has changed now after being on Proin since March. She is taking 37 mg a day. We tried to take her off the daily dosage but the leaking would immediately come back. Proin is working great for her incontinence. This loss of appetitie has just come on within the last 2 weeks.
Answer:My dogs eat less now too. I think it is the heat. Hormones make us all more proned to heat thus eat less. I feed my dogs now in the am when they are cooler and give them a little at night if they want it.
Hormones change taste buds, too, so maybe add some yummy wet food or scraps.

Proin and other drugs
My dog started taking Proin about 2 weeks ago and was doing great on it. She recently had surgery and was given an antiobiotic and pain medication and the Proin stopped working. I got rid of the pain medication but she is still leaking like crazy. Would the antiobiotic cause this? Thanks for the help.
Answer:I had the same proble, but Cheyenne is a big dog so the vet changed it to twice a day and it works great now for over 3 years. I hope you have good luck too. May she got a little infection from her surgery which effected those mucles temporarily.

we want to do right by our female Mastiff, named Vor. What can you tell us that can reassure us we are making the best choice in medications for urinary incontinence?
antbx and a costly vulvoplasty did not seem to help , She is only 2 yrs old , and 115 lbs, & it seems she needs more meds than the family combined. Help us as we want the BEST for her. thank you
Answer:We've been giving our 11 year old (50 lbs) black lab mix Proin for 10 years. It's a wonder drug. But it took us year and 3 vets to get a diagnosis and prescription. We get the Proin 75mg and give her 1/4 of a tablet morning and evening.
Answer:Our dog is a 15 year old Chow who required Proin 25mg for bladder incontinence after a botched surgery. I don't know what dose would be appropriate for your dog regarding the age and weight, but Proin is completely effective for our dog. We only have to give her 1/2 tablet morning and night.

Is this normal?
My 11 year old GSD has been incontinent for a couple years now but has always been on DES. However, last week she had 3 accidents and the vet determined that the DES is no longer working. The vet prescribed Proin today (1 1/2 50 mg tablets at dinner) and she just took her first dosage a couple of hours ago. She's been panting non-stop since then. Is this normal? She also has arthritis (on Rimadyl), hypothyroidism (on Soloxine) and currently an infection (on Clavamox). I'm afraid this Proin interacted negatively with the other medications in a way that wasn't anticipated. Is the panting normal? What are signs to look for?
Answer:It is possible that the panting is caused by Proin. It's also possible that the combination of Proin and Soloxine could increase the chance of panting occurring. I would suggest speaking to your veterinarian to let him know of your pet's panting.

Can a dog be on Proin and an antibiotic for a UTI, (sulfa drug) at the same time, or does the Proin need to be stopped?
Answer:Yes, My 11yr old Dobe has had 3 bladder infections and has takin Cephflexin at the same time with great results and no side effects
Answer:Yes, they can be cut in half. My Dobe is on 25mg 3 times a week now(every other day) She started out 10years ago on 2 50mg a day and I have reduced it enough until she had accidents again. It takes time and patience. I have had her completely off them for a few months til the bed was wet in the morning. Then put her back on them at a lower dosage

Does it come in different flavors?
I have a 4 year old beagle/coonhound mix and she can not stand the garlic smell and taste of the medicine. I had to go to crushing the pill up and mixing with applesauce and treats so she would take it. I tried peanut butter, cheese, bread, hot dogs and summer sausage. Everytime she would eat around the pill and then spit it out. If this comes in a different flavor I think that would help.
Answer:I have found "Liverwurst" wrapped around any pill so it is shapped into a ball with the pill in the middle as the most effective way to pill a dog. They love it and it isn't as messy or expensive as other food.
