High-yield credits are poised for months of turbulence as investors demand more compensation for their risk amid rising borrowing costs and as commodity prices and economic growth moderate across the region. This comes at a time when fund managers are growing more sensitive to the hazards of investing in emerging market high-yield debt, following last November's high-profile bankruptcy – the largest in Latin American history – of Brazilian oil firm OGX. "This case in a relatively short period of time will establish how much of a premium one should ask...

Women could achieve equality with men in politics in 20 years
The German Chancellor Angela Merkel speaks to delegates during the European People's Party Congress at the convention centre, Dublin, Ireland, Friday, March 7, 2014. (AP / Peter Morrison)
The Associated Press
Published Tuesday, March 11, 2014 9:13PM EDT
New research shows that women could achieve equal representation in the world's parliaments in less than 20 years if the current rate of progress is maintained, but they've hit the glass ceiling in getting to be president or prime minister.
The Women in Politics Map 2014, launched Tuesday by the Inter-Parliamentary Union and UN Women, showed the number of women parliamentarians at a record 21.8 per cent following a 1.5 per cent increase in the past year.
IPU Secretary-General Anders Johnsson said 10 years ago he was predicting that even his children would never see gender parity in parliaments because progress was so slow. But if the 1.5 per cent rate can be sustained "we would reach gender equality, gender parity, in parliaments globally less than 20 years from now," he said.

"Come on Brittany or we're going to be late!"
Brittany sighed as she stared at her reflection in the polished looking glass.
The tribal markings painted on her face did nothing to hide the nervous look in her eye.
Quinn must have been able to see it too even from where she poked her head through the pelts that made Brittany's door because soon enough she was swearing to herself and darting inside the yurt to come to her friend's aid.
"I'm scared Quinn," Brittany admitted as they locked eyes in the mirror.
Quinn nodded in understanding as she brushed a stray hair behind Brittany's ear.
"I know you are sweetie, but it's normal for a first timer- but Hades even I'm nervous, it'll be my first time back there since Beth was born," Quinn revealed.
"Are you going to seek out her father?" Brittany asked out of genuine interest.
Quinn shook her head.
"No, I heard that Rachel has since taken a shining to him… so I'm in the same position as you are."
"But you've done it all before…" Brittany muttered sullenly.
"And that you haven't yet is your own fault and you know it… I know for a fact that you've been bleeding for three years now- almost as long as I," Quinn chuckled.
"Hush Quinn, keep it down-" Brittany jumped to her feet and scolded Quinn. "Everyone else believes I just started a few seasons ago…"
"I think less believe that than you think…" Quinn informed her with a wry smile.
Brittany's face fell guiltily which only made Quinn feel bad.
"Hey, you weren't ready and that's okay," Quinn cooed in reassurance as she gently cupped Brittany's cheek, being careful not to smudge her still drying war-paint. "But Sue's patience with you has worn thin and you know it's your duty to the tribe to participate now."
"I know…" Brittany muttered regrettably.
"I promise you it's easier than you think," Quinn informed her with an encouraging smile. "The men want it. I hear there's a whole new group that have come of age… if you're still nervous just find one of the younger ones – they'll be inexperienced and excitable. Just get them inside of you and nature will do the rest. With any luck you'll be with child before the night is through and you won't need to go again for at least another year…"
Brittany nodded again, taking in all of Quinn's advice.
"Don't look so depressed- I know you like sex," Quinn teased, trying to get a smile out of her. "Everybody knows you like sex."
Brittany blushed and then offered Quinn a salacious grin with a waggle to her eyebrows, "You included huh, Quinn?"
Quinn rolled her eyes as her cheeks flamed, "Yeah, yeah… I was drunk remember?"
Brittany giggled as Quinn continued to blush, which only made the shorter blonde scowl at her.
"Why can't you just channel some of that confidence you usually reserve to charm your way into your Sisters' beds and use it tonight?" Quinn challenged.
"But I've never been with a man before," Brittany frowned unsurely.
"It's not that different-" Quinn shrugged. "They just smell bad and make noises that make them sound like wild animals. And their kisses tend to be really sloppy."
Both girls pulled disgusted faces at that description.
"So remind me again why it is we have to do this?" Brittany queried with lacking enthusiasm.
A loud horn blasting throughout the village made both girls jump and immediately returned the nervous look to Brittany's face.
"Because it's our duty," Quinn reminded her gently as she grabbed Brittany's ceremonial mask from the table nearby and handed it to her before taking her other hand and tugging her outside to join the rest of the raiding party.

Plaxico Burress.
Will he be wearing Giants blue or jail-bird orange when training camp rolls around this summer?
Will he be spared jail time from a gun charge when his piece accidentally went off inside the club, piercing Burress' right thigh and placing a more damaging divot in the team's season? Will he be disciplined by the league whether he walks or not? Will he attempt to transform his destructive personality to become a productive member of the team?
As usual with Burress, there are very few answers.
The Giants can make a million roster moves. They can continue to stack their defense. But if they go into the season without Burress or another legitimate No. 1 receiver, the Giants will face the same obstacles they encountered down the stretch this past season.
They might be dominant defensively. But there are no guarantees that will be the case, no matter how many defensive linemen have been added.
The consensus seems to be that Bill Sheridan will provide a seamless transition from departed defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. And as someone who enjoyed an up-close view of Sheridan's work at Army many years ago, I hope he makes fans forget Spags.
But Spagnuolo had a special touch with this defense. He made players better. Similar schemes from Sheridan don't guarantee similar results.
"I don't think anybody can deny that was one of the reasons we had that (Super Bowl) run was because of the dominant play of the D-line,'' Justin Tuck said. "We are trying to get back to that point and I think adding (Chris Canty and Rocky Bernard) definitely has us headed in that direction.''
There will be three different bodies from the 2008 season counting Osi Umenyiora. You can bet Umenyiora will have a special edge after missing all of '08 with a torn lateral meniscus in his left knee. Tuck, too, still has some things to prove, namely that he can get through a season as a starting defensive end without limping to the finish line.
Umenyiora and Tuck are among eight quality defensive linemen. Tom Coughlin can talk all he wants about how such depth will help the Giants. But eight solid linemen? It's hard to imagine a scenario that would give them all satisfactory playing time. The last thing a team wants is to have big-league talent sitting on the bench.
So you have to wonder if the Giants will dangle one or two of them as trade bait or for the purpose of moving up in the draft. Or, and I'm sure it's crossed his mind more than once, Mathias Kiwanuka will make his annual shift between defensive end and linebacker, this time returning to backer.
But the Giants' grand plan always includes Burress as the centerpiece.
The easy part would be to cut him loose, let him become somebody else's problem. You can bet a decent percentage of Giants fans would applaud the team for taking a stance against a player continually exhibiting such nonsense.
But it lacks practicality. Burress gives the Giants the best chance of winning another Super Bowl. He would have been kicked to the curb long ago if that weren't the case. So the Giants will eagerly take him back if he can avoid jail. Judging by their comments, teammates have grown weary of Burress' act, and the popular sentiment is that he either follows the straight and narrow or follows the road signs leading out of East Rutherford.
Still, it's hardly a given that Burress will have his legal tangles behind him and receive Roger Goodell's rubber stamp by training camp. If not, Giants fans are looking at a shaky group of receivers: Steve Smith, Domenik Hixon, Sinorice Moss, Mario Manningham and David Tyree.
The wild card is Manningham, who often appeared utterly lost trying to navigate through his rookie season. No less an authority than Eli Manning believes Manningham can be the deep threat the Giants dearly need. Or is Manning, in that robotic delivery of his, trying to convince himself that Manningham can handle such a vital chore? In fact, when asked about a potential deep threat, Manning's indecisiveness was telling.
"I think we have guys who can do that, but we'll see what happens the rest of the offseason and in the draft,'' Manning said. "Maybe we'll add another guy. Some of that is going to depend on Plaxico and what he's going to do.''
Manning took a lot of heat in the season-ending loss to Philadelphia. Folks harped on his struggles in the Giants Stadium wind. But the larger picture tells the story of a quarterback who made strides in his fourth full season as the starter.
Manning cut his interceptions in half, from a career-high 20 to a career-low 10. His quarterback rating of 86.4 was a career best. And if he's so lousy in the wind, how did Manning manage a 7-1 regular-season record and complete 58.4 percent of his passes with 10 touchdowns and three interceptions at Giants Stadium? Entering the season, Manning was 14-14 as a starter at home with 41 touchdowns, 35 interceptions and a 53.2 completion percentage.
So it's silly for folks to hop back aboard the anti-Eli train. He'll be just fine. And he will be better than fine if he gets to play pitch and catch with a big-time target.

Kevin Smith Too Fat to Fly!
The 'Humiliated' Director Takes on Southwest Airlines After Getting the Boot from a Flight Because of His Size
Southwest first responded by offering Smith a $100 travel voucher (which he refused) and a statement that "our pilots are responsible for the safety and comfort of all customers . . . and therefore made the determination that Mr. Smith needed more than one seat to complete his flight." The airline's policy says passengers must be able to lower their armrests; Smith says he could.
By the evening of Feb. 15, Smith wrote online that he received in a phone call "a serious mea culpa . . . from an actual individual," a Southwest VP of communications, Linda Rutherford. "Linda told me that, before I got anywhere near the plane . . . they were having a space issue onboard with another passenger who'd purchased two seats." But by now Smith saw the problem as bigger than just his ejection. On the flight that finally took him home, Smith settled into a window seat (next to an empty seat he'd purchased). He watched as a flight attendant told a heavy woman to consider buying two seats in the future. "My heart broke for her. This ain't about me anymore. Do you know how much it sucks to be fat? There's no reason to make that person's burden worse. I just want them to change their policy. And stop insulting people."

Cheers, Marilyn
This is a very unusual and beautiful wall indeed, Ryan! The lighting and shadows in this picture are also very nice! Greetings, Anne
Thanks Marilyn and Anne! I think this wall only extends partway along either side of the northeast corner of the zoo. I think they should have made it like this all the way around! Greetings, Ryan

The Boy Scouts of America gives this award only "in exceptional cases to a youth member or adult leader who has demonstrated unusual heroism and extraordinary skill or resourcefulness in saving or attempting to save life at extreme risk to self." Fewer than 300 of these medals have been awarded since the recognition was established in 1938.

Pitchers have zoned in on the weaknesses in the Dodgers outfielder's swing, but can he adjust back?
On the heels of an injury-ridden 2015 that saw his numbers regress across the board, Yasiel Puig slipped from a borderline-top 20 guy on Mike Gianella's Top 300 list a year ago to 77th on this year's pre-season version. And after an awfully pedestrian first couple months of the season, in which he hit just .239 with nearly five whiffs for every walk, his value cratered all the way to 201st in Mike and Bret Sayre's late-May update. Similarly, he slid from 46th on Bret's pre-season Dynasty Top 500 into triple digits at 104 in the July update. It's a freefall! Puig's value is in freefall, I say!
So what are we supposed to do with him now? The good news is that he remains a physical specimen with an absurd arm, and if FRAA is to be believed, he's been one of the best defensive right fielders in baseball this year in spite of a trip to the disabled list and periods of sporadic starting. All of those things are well and good, and the defensive value in particular is helpful fantasy-wise insofar as it keeps him in the regular lineup even when he's struggling offensively. But offensive struggle has been the norm for Puig pretty much all season long. His below-average .255 TAv ranks 24th among right fielders with at least 250 plate appearances, just behind Pete Bourjos. Yes, the Peter Bourjos who was drafted 528th overall in leagues deep enough that people drafted Peter Bourjos. Puig's return on investment has been… well, not good for fantasy players who drafted him in the fifth round this past spring. And it's been an even worse development for those who are pot-committed in dynasty leagues. So let's take a look at why his bat has been so lethargic this year, and whether there's still hope for a sequel to his first impression.

A look at how likely it is that players who underperformed in the first half will rebound down the stretch.
How likely is it that a disappointing player will return to form in the second half?
It is a simple question, but often it is approached from the standpoint of the individual player, as opposed to on the larger level of whether or not underperforming players on the whole bounce back or if they continue to underperform. Rather than run through specific, case-by-case examples of players who are struggling this year, I thought instead I would examine this year's disappointments in specific groups.

Examining a handful of relievers who could have considerable fantasy value even if they don't close.
Any time is a good time to check in on reliever leaderboards to try and spot a couple loose canons for hire off the ol' Waiver Wire, but I've always tended to gravitate towards this particular time of year for a more in-depth stock check. We've got a nice combination of half-season performance from some of the older-hat options along with some dynamic recent recalls sprinkled in, so it's a particularly fertile opportunity to add ratio support to your bullpen before the final push to most trading deadlines begins. The PITCHf/x leaderboards have glorious hallways in which to wander searching for sound investments, and to that end here's a sample of four relievers who've caught my eye as potential second-half assets in formats that value bullpen arms for one reason or another.

Wilson recomments targeting these young'uns in midseason dynasty drafts and trades.
We've reached that point in the season where the minor leagues start to play their all-star games, and the first-half performers start migrating to their next respective levels, and the recent crop of draft picks starts to matriculate into short-season play, and the world is sunny and beautiful for prospect hounds. I play in a couple dynasty leagues that have mid-season prospect drafts, and I've always enjoyed the format. On one hand, it tends to encourage further prospect trading, as managers get faster and looser with their farmhands knowing they can replenish the coffers with recent draftees and J2 signees in short order. And on the other, there tends to be an opportunity to grab some helium guys that can get lost in the shuffle of the race to snag the newest first-rounders. So with that as my backdrop, here's a list of some personal favorites to either make a play for in trade over the next couple weeks or add to your target list for an upcoming prospect draft.

Examining the players who've earned their fantasy pay to this point in the season and those who haven't.
We are about 72 games into the season and closing in on the true halfway mark. So it seems like as good a time as any to take a look at the hitters and pitchers who have delivered for their fantasy teams so far and the ones who have not.

A look at what's been holding the White Sox slugger back, and whether he might soon emerge from his slump.
As of Mike Gianella's most recent valuation update a couple of weeks ago, Abreu was on pace for merely a $12 AL-only season--good for just 15th among first-base-eligible hitters in the junior circuit. He's since rebounded with his first sustained hot streak of the season across his last dozen games, dropping a .370/.396/.630 line with three dingers and 18 R+RBI to take some of that early-season sting out of it for mixed leaguers who, on average, bough him 21st overall in mixed NFBC drafts. Still, he remains well below his level of expected production in the macro sense, and we're deep enough into the season that we need to be asking ourselves with straight faces whether recent hot streaks like Abreu's are in fact sustainable turn-arounds, or whether they're temporary beacons among more troubled seas. So let's dive under the hood and figure out what went wrong early, why it's not going wrong now, and whether it's likely to go wrong again over the next three and a half months.
Let's start with the basics: Abreu's BABIP is down, sitting at present at a nominally-above-league-average mark of .299 that is well south of the .356 and .333 marks he posted across his first two campaigns. And sure enough, he's hitting less line drives than he ever has while seeing a boost in his fly ball contact. It hasn't been better fly ball contact, however, and courtesy of Statcast we can see that he's hitting the ball with less authority overall this year:

Why high-average hitters might be undervalued commodities in fantasy formats.
In response to one of my FAAB Reviews, a reader wanted to know why John Jaso was treated like such a fungible commodity in LABR Mixed:
I'm a little perplexed how John Jaso was available for such a low bid, he's a high OBP guy on the strong side of a platoon batting lead off in a top-5 offense. Even in my home league, a deep mixer that counts OBP, he went undrafted and has been picked up and dropped to waivers twice. Maybe he's one of those players who is more valuable in real life than fantasy?

Helping you get the most out of your swaps this summer.
Flags Fly Forever. Hey, that's the name of the podcast I co-host weekly with Bret Sayre and producer George Bissell. So I know a thing or two about going for it at all costs, decimating my team's future in pursuit of a title, and sacrificing the potential plum of back-to-back championships in favor of a "certain" win this year. As a rule of thumb, this is sage advice. If you are on the fence about a trade in a keeper or dynasty league because you are worried you are giving up too much value, odds are good that you should make the trade immediately and worry about 2017 and beyond later.
Yet there are cases where you can go too far and sacrifice too much future in exchange for the present. This seems to fly in the face of the advice that every fantasy expert has ever dispensed. But there are cases where it can happen.

Viewing the Cal League's first-half standouts through a fantasy lens.
Yesterday the California League All-Star roster was announced for the upcoming Cal-Carolina League All-Star Game at Lake Elsinore. On paper it's the weakest crop by a good bit in the three years I've been covering the league, but there are certainly still plenty of fantasy-relevant names littering the roster that bare some discussion. Let's take a look at some of them, and then I'll follow it up with some notes on a few of the more notable non-All Stars from around the league as well.
Travis Demeritte, 2B, Texas Rangers (High Desert Mavericks) – Demeritte is a prototypical boom-or-bust fantasy prospect, with the latter the more likely outcome. He frequently loses his mechanics with wild swings from the heels, and after taking the Cal League by storm in April the book has gradually circulated on him and pitchers have been much more successful at keeping him in the yard and off the bases of late. He's got a ton of strength and bat speed though, and the ability to provide a useful power-speed combination at a shallow position, though it's likely to come with a low AVG. He's in the conversation to be a top-150 dynasty prospect at this point, but it's a high-risk profile and managers would do just as well to move Demeritte now if they're able to before Double-A pitchers sink their teeth into him.

J.P. recounts his process for going from the bottom fourth into the top tier of the TGDX experts dynatsy league.
Regular Baseball Prospectus readers are familiar with The Dynasty Guru Experts League (TDGX). It's a 20-team, 40-man-roster dynasty league that's run by our benevolent leader, Bret Sayre, and it includes experts from across the industry—from BP to CBSSports to FanGraphs to MLB.com and beyond. We chronicle the weekly transactions and occasionally have an in-depth article from a TDGX owner that digs into the nitty gritty of his roster and his past/future strategy.

Examining why we might've whiffed on the O's slugger's breakout, and how to best avoid similar misses going forward.
Mark Trumbo has been very good at baseball this season and, because fielding and base-running are not a part of fantasy baseball, he has been even better as a fantasy baseball player. Per the first edition of Mike Gianella's in-season fantasy rankings, Trumbo was the 19th-most-valuable hitter in the American League as of June 1st. Since then, he has roto-slashed .425/3/9/9/0 (AVG/HR/R/RBI/SB). It is thus safe to say that his 2016 production to date is safely within the top 15 among AL hitters and that he is likely flirting with top-ten AL hitter value. Not too shabby for a player with an NFBC ADP of 164.52.
The reasons as to why Trumbo has been good are no mystery—he has been healthy, he is taking a lot of at-bats in Camden Yards, he is hitting in the Baltimore Orioles' lineup, and, as pointed out by Jeff Sullivan of Fangraphs yesterday, Trumbo is doing his usual crushing of baseballs, while hitting more flyballs and fewer groundballs. Will he stay healthy? Probably; putting aside 2014, he has played a minimum of 142 each season. Will he continue to hit more flyballs? Maybe. I'd imagine the league will make some adjustment, but I'd also imagine that some of these gains are here to stay as he showed improvements toward the end of last season.

Just came across this:
Singapore Airlines To Fly To Moscow
15 December 2005
Singapore Airlines will launch a three times weekly service to the Russian Federation capital of Moscow from 1 March 2006.
Flights will depart Singapore every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening, arriving at Moscow's Domodedovo Airport, via Dubai, the next morning. The return flight will depart Moscow every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mid-morning and arrive in Singapore, via Dubai, early the following day. Singapore Airlines will fly a 3-class Boeing 777-200 aircraft on this new route. (Please refer to Annex for full flight schedule.)
With this new destination, Singapore Airlines will fly 74 times a week to 10 cities in Europe. The number of destinations in the route network will also increase to 62 in 34 countries.
This new service will enhance the already emerging business and leisure ties between Russia and Singapore. It will also increase options available to customers when traveling between Eastern Europe, South East Asia and the South West Pacific.
One of the world's greatest and oldest cities, 850 year-old Moscow is at the centre of growth in commercial links between the Russian Federation and South East Asia.
Russia is a growing trading partner with the region. Bilateral trade between Russia and Singapore has been increasing steadily for some years, and includes IT&T equipment on the export side, and oil and resources on the import side. Russia is also experiencing high growth in GDP and wealth.
Despite the pace of change and redevelopment of the city's infrastructure, Moscow retains its enigmatic character through landmarks such as the fortress of Kremlin, one of the world's most beautiful ensemble of churches, monuments and other architectural artifacts. It is home to collections of art and national treasures that few have explored.
Other places of interest include the 16th –century St Basil's Cathedral, The Bolshoi theatre, Gorky Park, as well as Lenin's Mausoleum, located in Red Square. The city also boasts the world's busiest underground rail transportation system.
"Moscow is a cosmopolitan and international city with a deep and colourful history and it is an increasingly popular choice for tourism and international commerce," said Mr Huang Cheng Eng, Singapore Airlines Executive Vice-President Marketing and the Regions.
"Its outward-looking population will also serve as a desirable source market for tourism in Singapore and beyond through the Singapore Changi Airport hub. We look forward to providing links between the Russian Federation and South-East Asia, the South West Pacific and other important markets," Mr Huang said.
Singapore - Dubai - Moscow
SQ376 Depart Singapore 2200 Arrive Dubai 0135+1
Depart Dubai 0235 Arrive Moscow 0730
SQ375 Depart Moscow 1030 Arrive Dubai 1700
Depart Dubai 1805 Arrive SIN 0525 +1
I am surprised SIA is sending their aging Regional Three-Class 777s all the way to Moscow. That really is stretching the definition of "regional". Can't imagine being stuck in a middle seat in J class all the way from SIN to Moscow!
The only reason I can think of is lack of competition. EK is sending regional 777s from Dubai to Moscow and Aeroflot doesn't even fly to SIN.

How I Retired Before I Retired
Last month I spent 40+ hours in a vegan lifestyle coaching academy. A year ago, if someone had suggested I do such a thing, I would have thought them crazy. That was before I walked away from a good-paying, steady job, months before turning 47 years old.
For the past several years my husband and I have bemoaned what we, and many other Americans, have come to realize. We will be working into our seventies and beyond – both out of financial necessity and out of a desire to stay active and involved in our community. We spent a great deal of time talking about what work might look likein our sixties, seventies and maybe even eighties. Me? At 65 or 70 I want to be consulting for a few nonprofit clients. I hope to (still) be teaching nonprofit management courses but would also love to be educating others about plant-based nutrition and living a compassionate lifestyle. I hope to be writing – books, articles, blog posts, and more. Him? His hobby of triathlon coaching is morphing into a business and he wants to coach until the day he dies. We are both excited about our retirement future.
We had a radical idea. What if we retired right now?
I started thinking about how I might use my 20+ years experience working in nonprofit management and higher education administration to focus on projects to which I am passionately committed. I pondered how I could grow my writing and culinary skills to prepare me for spreading the vegan message while also earning an income. My biggest obstacle? Time. The day job was getting in the way.
I quit my job. But not without a strategy.
- I came up with a business plan. After re-evaluating our monthly living expenses, and making some long-overdue cuts, I was clear on how much money I needed to contribute to our household. (I should add here that we are child-free so college funds were not a consideration.) This information guided my revenue model. Half of my time is dedicated to nonprofit and education consulting. This leaves the other half of my time to try to earn a little money off of my writing and to become a student of my hobbies – to professionalize my passions.
- I came up with an education plan. While a blogging, writing, and culinary hobbyist for the past two years, I am now enrolling in culinary classes and writing courses with intention and, just last month, I completed the Main Street Vegan Academy certification program.
- I have a fall-back plan. Listen, this "early retirement" thing might not work out. That is why nonprofit and education consulting is part of my business plan - to keep my fingers on the pulse of my profession. I won't have to worry about the difficulty of "returning" to work full-time in either sector because I will have never really left.
An amazing thing can happen when you take the time to invest in your future, even at the age of 47. I now have a few education and nonprofit consulting clients and the projects motivate and inspire me. I am a certified vegan lifestyle coach, working with individuals and groups to learn to be more compassionate to themselves, and to others.
My two years as a hobbyist blogger paid off, as I was invited to collaborate with an esteemed registered dietician and nutritionist on a book, which is due out next summer. It also led to an invitation to write a weekly vegan column online for the food section of my local paper. Sure, I am working more hours than I will be at 70 or 75, but this joyful period in my career is an investment to ensure that I will spend my working retirement doing exactly what I love and know how to do. I am living my retirement today.
JL Fields, a vegan lifestyle coach, writes the blog JL goes Vegan and writes/edits the community blog Stop Chasing Skinny.

Arizona GOP Chief Echoes Ben Quayle: "Barack Obama is the Worst President in History." Dems Say Arizona's "in Play" for President
President Barack Obama announced yesterday that he will seek a second term in office, despite the piss-poor economy, the high unemployment rate, the border mess, Libya, Japan, the housing crisis, and flaking on campaign promises like closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay.
Let the rhetoric commence.
On the Republican side, GOP Party Chief Tom Morrissey played the card made famous (more like infamous) by Congressman Ben Quayle in last year's election.
"Congressman Ben Quayle was right when he said Obama is the worst President ever," Morrissey says in a statement.

Morrissey cites how "retail gas prices have doubled, food prices have risen 30 percent (the highest since Jimmy Carter), the national debt has increased by more than 40%, and foreclosures and unemployment are running at historic highs."
"Obama has spent about $500 million in his 'humanitarian' bombing of Gadhafi while ignoring the human carnage of civilian deaths in Mexico," he continues. "He is deploying American Marines around the world to secure foreign borders while refusing to secure Arizona's border with Mexico to protect American citizens from international terrorists, as well as the ruthless criminal acts of drug and human smuggling cartels. America cannot withstand another two years of Obama's feckless policies let alone the specter of another term of an Obama Administration."
Despite all that, Arizona Dems think normally Republican-voting Arizona is "in play" for the president.
Arizona Democratic Party Chairman Luis Heredia cites a New York Times article, in which Obama campaign manager Jim Messina says the campaign could win in the Grand Canyon State.
"If you look at the new census numbers, you would think that Georgia would be in play. You would definitely think that Arizona would be in play -- as I think it is. Those are states where we didn't play in last time," Messina is quoted as saying in the article.
Obama nearly won Arizona in 2008 -- but he was running against Republican Senator John McCain who'd managed to piss off even the top brass of Arizona's Republican Party. Obama also didn't have his own record working against him in the 2008 campaign.

This zesty face wash is just the kick in the pants that your face needs. The lemony formula uses gentle alpha-hydroxy acids to clear away dead skin, dirt, and oil for a healthier looking complexion. Perfect for all skin types, it gives you a thorough clean without any unpleasant post-wash dryness.
This was a particularly pleasant suprise. A stellar way to wake up your face in the morning. The fragrance was invigorating and the product itself left my face spotless clean... and feeling hydrated without leaving a palpable film on my skin. A strong Recommend- if the full size is a good amount and it comes In or around the 20$ mark and i'd say its a purchase. Thanks BBox5
One of the most amazing cleansers out there -- great scent always puts me in a good mood in the morning. I always feel so clean, but never like the natural oils from my face have been stripped away. Its kind of like a fruit-acid peel at the spa, mixed with an everyday cleanser. Theres also this delightful, energizing fresh feeling when you rince off the suds.
Only drawback, it's a tad on the thick side, which is why I didn't give it 5 stars -- it pours quite slowly and too much comes out at a time. Maybe they need a pump.
Product definitely leaves the skin feeling clean, the challenging part relates to the 250 ml package - its a neat design (sleek metal can), however, it gets cool easy which causes the contents to gel up. Since its metal, and not a squeeze container, it makes it difficult to get out as it oozes like molasses. Probably wouldn't have the problem with the smaller sizes4

In this warm and engaging novel, New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Berg revisits the heroine she so lovingly brought to life in Durable Goods and Joy School.
It is 1961, and thirteen-year-old Katie is facing a summer full of conflict. First, instead of letting her find her own work for the season, Katie's father has arranged for two less-than-ideal baby-sitting jobs -- one for the rambunctious Wexler boys and another for Mrs. Randolph, a kind but elderly, bed-ridden neighbor. To make matters worse, Katie has been forcibly inducted into the "loser" Girl Scout troop organized by her only friend Cynthia's controlling and clueless mother. A much-anticipated visit to her former home in Texas and ex-best friend Cherylanne proves disappointing. And then comes an act of betrayal that leaves Katie questioning her views on friendship, on her ability not to take those she loves for granted, and, most important, on herself. "One thing to say about you, Katie, is that you are true. You should be proud of it, and don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise," Cherylanne insists. But whether or not Katie will ever feel true to herself remains to be seen.
From the writer whose work The New Yorker calls "strong" and "timeless," True to Form is a delicately told tale of a young girl wise beyond her years, whose growing pains finally awaken her to the clarity of forgiveness and a greater understanding of the complicated world around her. Full of the anguish and the joys of adolescence in a much more innocent time, True to Form is sure to make readers remember and reflect on their own moments of discovery and self-definition.

A 4-year study of the ecology and ethology of wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes verus)was carried out in far western Africa. Contacts with chimpanzees and the locations of their nests were noted to determine which types of habitat were most used and to estimate the density of the population and the size of its home range. The results show that this community has one of the lowest densities and largest home ranges of all populations of chimpanzees studied so far. As such, it may provide a useful model for the reconstruction of hominid evolution in the Plio-Pleistocene.

A fitting way to mark the opening rather than a typical ribbon cutting ceremony, the former skipper declared the new £1million sports hall open by 'shooting a hoop' using the brand new basketball facilities in the hall.
Enfield Grammar is one of the oldest schools in the local area and has over 1,000 students.
The new sports hall, funded by the Education Funding Agency, has replaced out-dated facilities and is the newest building at the school in over 20 years.
Taking just over six months to complete, the facilities will be made available to pupils and the local community.
The Club has made a commitment to provide over 7,000 hours per year of high quality sport, health and education related activities to local residents alongside partners Enfield Council and Lee Valley Regional Park Authority. Through the Academy programme, the Club works with a majority of local schools including Enfield Grammar, and local football clubs enabling young people of all ages from across the borough to have access to the training centre where they have been able to make use of the world class facilities.
Gary Mabbutt said: "It is great to have been invited to attend and officially open Enfield Grammar's new sports hall and to see one of our local schools investing in their facilities for the of benefit pupils and the community.
"Sport means a lot to young people in the community - this is evident when we have welcomed a majority of them to our training centre to use the facilities. I hope that the pupils at Enfield Grammar make the most of their new sports hall and enjoy playing a wide range of sporting activities there."
John Kerr, Headmaster at Enfield Grammar said: "To have a Spurs legend opening our new £1million sports hall really made the day. The boys were totally engaged with his speech and to top it all he 'sunk the basket' to officially open the sports hall at Enfield Grammar with ease - class!"
