Mexico Facts Flag
Mexico straddles the southern part of North America, with coastal plains along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts rising to a central plateau. Northern Mexico is desertlike, while the south is a mountainous jungle containing Maya and Aztec ruins. Most people live in the densely populated waist of the country, including the cities of Veracruz, Mexico City, and Guadalajara. Most Mexicans are of mixed Spanish and Indian descent, but about 30 percent are Indian—and millions still speak Indian languages in the southeast.
A 3,115-kilometer (1,936-mile) common border, commerce, and tourism link the world's largest Spanish-speaking country to its northern neighbor. Mexico is one of the world's largest oil producers—oil and gas provide a third of the government's revenue. Mexico exports oil to the U.S., which returns manufactured goods and foodstuffs. Agriculture remains an important employer. Mexico's system of communal farms, or ejidos, was reformed in the 1990s to promote private investment and large-scale agriculture. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) makes Mexico highly dependent on exports to the U.S., and the downturn in U.S. business in 2001 resulted in little or no growth in the Mexican economy.
The nation is blessed with abundant minerals—notably silver, copper, sulfur, lead, and zinc—advanced technology, and a huge workforce. It profits from its maquiladora border industry: products are assembled at mostly U.S.-owned plants, then sent to the U.S. and elsewhere. The foreign plant owners gain from the lower cost of doing business in Mexico, and Mexicans gain jobs. However, many poor Mexicans try to cross the border for jobs in the U.S.—an estimated five million Mexican immigrants are in the U.S. illegally.
Mexico's declining birthrate promises some relief from the crushing pressure of its population. In 2000 Mexico became the 11th country in the world to have 100 million people—more than double its 1970 population of 48 million. With more than 19 million people, many living in barrio slums, Greater Mexico City is one of the world's largest urbanized areas. Tough environmental restrictions have been enacted to cope with increasingly dangerous levels of air and water pollution.
Tax reform, privatization of state-run industries, and more open trade policies have improved competitiveness and boosted exports. Education funding is increasing, and authority is being transferred from the federal to state governments to improve accountability. New four-lane highways provide a network helping business and tourism.
- Industry: Food and beverages, tobacco, chemicals, iron and steel
- Agriculture: Corn, wheat, soybeans, rice; beef; wood products
- Exports: Manufactured goods, oil and oil products, silver, fruits, vegetables

"Material Girl" Madonna embraced the punk theme at last night's Met Ball wearing rather less material than usual in a pair of ripped fishnet stockings accompanied by by tartan studded jacket and leather gloves - and no discernible skirt or trousers.
The performer, 54, said she was a fan of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen "and that whole era." Still, she added, she didn't want her outfit to be too literal. "I wanted to do my own thing, but my own twist on it."
Click here or on "View Images" for pictures from the red carpet
Miley Cyrus, Anne Hathaway and Cameron Diaz were among the celebrities to embrace the punk theme at the Met gala, the fundraiser at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art that's affectionately known as "the party of the year." But Beyonce, the event's honorary chairwoman, chose an outfit more appropriate for the Oscars than a show of punk anarchy.
Wearing a flame-motif gown with long gloves and a long train by Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, Beyonce was one of the last arrivals, following in the studded heel footsteps of Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lawrence and Jennifer Lopez.
Beyonce was already thinking ahead, though, wondering if she'd need scissors at the end of the night to get out of the corset.
Many stars embraced the big Costume Institute exhibit they were there to celebrate: Punk: From Chaos to Couture. Beyonce's co-chairs for the event included Tisci, who escorted Rooney Mara, who wore a white lace gown with exaggerated shoulders and a heavy-hardware zip front.
Mara said she never went through a punk fashion phase but "I was definitely a punk."
Tisci also dressed Kim Kardashian, who has seen much of her maternity wardrobe reviewed — almost always negatively — on social media on a daily basis. The online critics have more fodder with her floral-print, high-neck gown.
In a more classic style — but likely tabloid fodder anyway — were Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn, walking the red carpet as a couple.
Sarah Jessica Parker donned an oversized feather mohawk by Philip Treacy that complemented her graffiti-splashed and slashed gown by Giles Deacon, which she also paired with custom-made, thigh-high, tartan-plaid Christian Louboutin boots. She paid careful attention to the theme, she said. "I just want to be asked back next year! That's all that matters!"
Cameron Diaz and Anne Hathaway both said they were influenced by the punk scene — especially the music — when they were growing up. Diaz came with Kristen Stewart and Stella McCartney, who designed both of their outfits. Diaz's cobalt-colored cape dress had a severe studded belt. "I feel so chic," Diaz said.
Hathaway showed off a short blond hairdo, not dissimilar to Miley Cyrus', and a vintage burned-out Valentino gown. Hathaway said her inspiration for the outfit was Blondie's Debbie Harry, who was just a few steps ahead on the red carpet in a glitzy studded blazer by Tommy Hilfiger.
"Punk rock has a unique culture and distinct style that I really admire," Hilfiger told The Associated Press earlier in the day. "Music of all genres has always been a central influence in my designs. I tend to gravitate more toward classic American rock, but I listen to and love punk rock albums from The Ramones and Blondie."
Katie Holmes, in a molded gown with a metal halter neckline by Calvin Klein's Francisco Costa, also gave a nod to Harry as her punk icon.
The Met gala traditionally mixes Hollywood stars, fashion designers and top models. It's largely orchestrated by Anna Wintour, Vogue's editor-in-chief. She wore a hot-pink floral Chanel gown, which she said is a color that symbolizes the punk movement.
The edgy theme could have thrown some people off their fashion game. "I think (punk) is so eclectic and so original and maybe it sort of represents what's very fearless about fashion."

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I answered a free computer offer with a request to submit two offers from a list of companys. I selected to receive a free ebay CD with shipping & handling cost of $1.97. I received my bank statement with a $39.95 charge from Auctionmentor.
I had received a call from a telemarketer to setup a ebay mentor session for monday 9/14/09 @4p.m., but was not available to take the call. When I called the number listed on my bank statement for the 39.95 charge , for 'Auctionmen'; was the only time I had heard of the 'Auctionmentor' company name. The service rep #022 advised me that I should have read the confirmation e-mail supposedly sent that gives you 14 days to cancel the promotion they offer when you request the e-bay cd. I can't find a copy of the e-mail they sent nor did I ever receive the cd I originally ordered'.
I am reporting this information to my bank today as a fraudulant activity. Auctionmentor agreed to send me the CD again but refused to refund the $39.95 fee because I did not cancel the 8/12/09 'order' in the 14 day period they specified in the 'confirmation' they never sent me. They have no proof of shipping me the CD I ordered nor the confirmation of the plan I supposedly agreed to @ 39.95/mo. They did agree to cancel further monthly charges and refund the $1.97 s/h charge for the CD I never received. What gracious vendors the are! I hope The E-bay rep that follows up will not be surprised that I have no intentions of dealing with them, Auctionmentors or even Dell computers for the free computer I never received.
I am not inexperienced with internet fraud, and would not normally be caught in this situation. I just happen to be looking for a computer for my son for college and thought I would check out the free offer. This just verifies the saying that 'nothing is free'! I hope this experience will save some other people the trouble of this scam. If they were able to get me, they are scamming alot of other people. Check your bank statements often, there are many scams out there like this one.

Terry Green, the retail entrepreneur, and Minerva, the property company, will this week table a formal joint offer for Allders, the struggling department store chain.
Minerva has already built a 25 per cent stake in Allders, headed by Harvey Lipsith. The offer is expected at 160p a share, valuing the target at £125 million. Analysts say other bidders could emerge, but it is 'possible rather than probable'.
Green, a former head of BhS, and the private equity arm of Lehman Brothers, the investment bank, are backing Minerva's attempt to buy Allders, whose financial performance has been dismal in recent years.
Minerva, run by David Garrard, chairman, and Andrew Rosenfeld, chief executive, has been keen to take control of Allders because it is the anchor tenant in the property company's Park Place redevelopment in Croydon. Analysts estimate the investment value of the development at more than £500m.
Green is expected to inject a significant amount of his own money in Allders, in order to take management control of its 44 stores and a sizeable stake.
Allders was forced to disclose that it had a number of preliminary offers for the business last month as it reported that pre-tax profits had fallen 45 per cent from £14.4m to £7.8m in the year to the end of September.
Tom Hunter, the Scottish entrepreneur, backed by Icelandic group Baugur, has made an indicative offer for Allders' competitor, House of Fraser. Industry sources suggest that if Hunter is successful in his bid, a merger with Allders is likely once both companies are taken private.

EXCLUSIVE: CAA lost the longtime top client in late December. And now I've learned that Oprah Winfrey has signed with WME's Ari Emanuel and Rick Rosen and a team of agents. The big signing comes after Oprah and her cable network OWN scored 3.2 million viewers for her confessional sit-down with disgraced doper Lance Armstrong. I understand today's move culminates a long slow wooing by the agency, the same kind that WME has done with Dick Wolf (successfully) and Shonda Rhimes (unsuccessfully, for the moment), and some other key TV creators and producers. Winfrey had been a very important client for CAA. Among other things, the agency put together her deal with Discovery Communications for OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network. But Oprah isn't an easy client by any means.
EXCLUSIVE: Oprah Signs With WME
14 Comments
Sometimes it just takes some change to happened and with that Oprah Winfrey decided to make a decision that would work out for best interest. With a network that's seen some rough days. It's good she's looking at what she can do to make the best of this situation. Turn this network into a watching network. But the recent interview with Lance Armstrong maybe the tide that might turn the some what struggling network to a winning strategy.
The OWN Network could have made a ton of money had they aired ADS during LANCE ARMSTRONG's INTERVIEW.
Its official. WME is number one. CAA is now going the way of ICM and the old William Morris before Endeavor took over.
It certainly appears that way
And if this pilot season is any indication, it looks like UTA is making a killing too. Wouldn't be surprised if CAA ends up ranking third.
Her ratings are bound to soar once she starts broadcasting executions.
Seems like CAA milked most of the money out of this one already, but still a solid sign for WME… Certainly better press than Ari paling around with an arsonist.
If she owns her own network that CAA brokered, WME will get paid on what exactly?
Your comment Mekisha sounds like it was generated by google translate.
But CAA has parties with dancers having sex,…that equates things,right?
Hope they don't spend the scale commission from indie projects like the Butler all in one place
uggh who cares clients just go back and forth-
it is about the best ass kissers and liars
who would want to be a hanger on agent for a career
i love it when they turn on each other and steal files etc
its so wonderful to watch
How is Shonda Rhimes not successful have you watched Scandal?
CAA certainly is losing it's "100%" market-share strategy. Gotta admit- I kinda love it.

Not sure how I wound up on this list, but I received the following pitch to attend a taping for Tribune's "The Bill Cunningham Show."
I'm the Assistant Audience Coordinator at the Bill Cunningham Show! This is a brand new talk show looking for exciting and upbeat people to come and join us as audience members! This show is rare since it is extremely audience driven, which means the host gives the audience a chance to voice their opinions and really gets them involved in the whole experience.
Tickets are FREE, and we also provide a bus for you, if you have a group of 25 or more. We also provide FREE LUNCH for the group to stay for a SECOND SHOW.
If you are interested in being a part of this great experience in Television please email me back and we can discuss more details about the show and the day you would like to join us!
Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
I see only a few problems with this:
1. I am not exciting or upbeat. Boring and cynical is more like it.
2. You would have to bring a limo to my house, and give me lunch, dinner and a travel allowance, to attend even one taping of "The Bill Cunningham Show," much less wait around for a double-header.
3. Cunningham, a Cincinnati radio personality, told the Chicago Tribune last year about his longtime friendship with Tribune exec Randy Michaels, saying, "Randy Michaels is putting me on television, and I have 100 percent faith in him, that he would not put me in a product that I could not do or a product that would not be successful. I trust Randy Michaels with my professional life."
Of course, Michaels is — whoops — no longer at Tribune, having left after what can charitably be described as a lot of really bad publicity.
In other words, if you want to attend "The Bill Cunningham Show," I'd RSVP pronto.

NEW YORK, Monday—Tonight I am going to a concert given in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. by the Dutchess County Philharmonic orchestra. The soloists are to be Major John Warner, of the New York State Constabulary, who is a fine musician, and Mrs. Lytle Hull, also a good musician, though most people think of her primarily as a patron and ceaseless worker inthe interests of music and musicians.
Last summer, this orchestra gave a concert out of doors at our home in Hyde Park. I feel that small orchestras [originally: orchestras,] like this one, springing up throughout the country, mean a growth in the appreciation of music, which is vauable to the nation as a whole.
While I was in Boston the other day, I heard a great deal of the terrible fire which cost so many lives there. A great many precautions are now being taken. No inflammable decorations are allowed in public places, and whatever can be done in the way of assuring safe conditions is being done.
I think, however, that the only real safety lies in the ability of people to remain calm under stress. If the doors had been opened and people had gone out quietly, nothing like the tragedy which occured could possibly have happened. It is panic which always leads to these disasters and I wonder if one should not train a certain number of people and dot them around crowded public places to keep people quiet.
I was interested the other day to see a report stating that approximately four hundred babies a day are now being born to the wives of our men in our military services. The report states: "Many of these young mothers are away from home with no resources other than the dependents allowance for the enlisted men. The American Red Cross is receiving more than 25,000 requests each month from soldiers' wives requesting assistance in maternity care."
When wives join their husbands for a short time near army camps they are not legal residents and, therefore, are not eligible to whatever community services may be open to residents. The medical and hospital care for service men's families, usually available in army hospitals in time of peace, can not cope with the tremendous additional number who now require assistance.
It seems to me that this situation will have to receive consideration by th e [originally: the] Congress not only because it is the right thing to do for the men who are in the services, and must leave their wives at home, but because these children are an asset to the nation in the future.

The tea is out of this world!
Thank you for letting us know about this event. It was great!
In light of the recent preponderance of alcohol-themed advertisements published under the guise of journalism, I propose that the "Chow" section be renamed "Swill."
Great article!
Small correction: it's NIMAN ranch, not Neiman.
Sounds like an interesting place, and it's nice to see an article about something besides booze!
They are at 1605 W. Grant.
(Sigh) Another alcoholic beverage promotional piece...oh, but it's for a good cause, right? "...to raise awareness of the need for habitat conservation and preserving the character of southern Arizona." What "character" is that? The one that the Native population bestowed on the area by living lightly on the land? Or the one that limits development just enough to allow rich, mostly non-Native homeowners in the foothills to preserve their views and property values?
Reading this article reminded me of the old saying "Whatever a patron desires to get published is advertising; whatever he wants to keep out of the paper is news." Do the Weekly's editors regard the recent proliferation of bars, (aka "craft breweries and distilleries") in Tucson to be a good trend? If so, they should instruct Adam Borowitz and anyone else who writes about the subject to elucidate why that would be so. I can't imagine one's life being so empty that one would start caring about the flavor combinations in which one's booze could be served.
I dearly hope that the cannabis legalization effort will be successful come Election Day. Perhaps it will have a beneficial side effect of taking some business away from the excessively popular alcoholic beverage merchants in this city. More potheads and fewer drunks would be a blessing.
Also, Mr. Borowitz should know that his casual comparison of bartenders to professors is an egregious misuse of the title: A professor is a rank to which many aspire, but few attain. It is only achievable by those who have earned a doctoral degree and have made significant contributions through teaching, research, publication and other forms of service to their employers and to their fields of study.
Chow is a breed of dog. I strongly suggest you just report on dogs with blue tongues on the Chow page. Seriously :-)
OK. I just have to say that Chow is for FOOD, not BOOZE. I strongly suggest that you create a separate page for local drinkeries, and just report on food on the Chow page. Seriously. Fifty percent of the time, Chow comments on breweries, etc.
Yup. Big mistake leaving out Seoul Kitchen. Excellent food.
Jiggers Firebirds is overpriced shit for piece of shit people who want to flaunt their egos at your crappy restaurant. You could serve them marked up McNuggets and they would only come there so they can show off to their friends that look I eat at this overpriced POS. Take your 15 years and shove it. Jimmy Hula's is only there for one thing. College kids. They don't know shit except to waste mommy and daddy's money. The true test is if any of those 4th ave congress businesses survive summer vacation when the kids are gone. Go ask crappy Obon how was their business during that time. Hurting they would tell you Lol.
Second the motion on Seoul Kitchen. Not just good Korean, great food period.
Don't overlook Seoul Kitchen. Excellent Bi Bim Bop.
First Watch is terrible
What about Roadhouse with the best hamburgers in Tucson!!!!!
How come you didn't mention Roadhouse Theatre? You don't have to see a movie to eat there. They even have lunch specials, and their burgers are the best in town!
This article is spot on! Everything Alafia serves is fantastic. It's food you think about for a long time after. The memory will cross your mind unexpectedly throughout the next month, calling you back.
Thank you Adam for writing this story and thank you everyone for reading and commenting on this article. We are excited to open in Tucson using local investment money and to provide 30+ local jobs. We understand and accept we cannot please everyone, but just the same, we hope you all will be open minded, visit our establishment when we open this holiday season and try some fish tacos.
I was part of the team that opened Firebirds at La Encantada mall, countless people told us we wouldn't last a year, but almost 15 years later, guess what? Might not be your favorite restaurant, but Firebirds is still there and going strong. Point is, these guys know they can't make everybody happy, but given their location, clearly they are no dummies, this place will do just fine whether you like it or not.

Fate/Stay Night 14
This is as close to man love as I can get….
Damn… Archer was freaking cool this episode. Not only was he the Servant of my most favourite character in Fate/Stay Night, his backstory, if you've been spoiled to it, is very, very romantic, in my own personal opinion. The way that they put in the new ED sequence this episode as a somewhat of a commemoration to Archer gets 10/10 in my book to me.
The only thing I find that's too bad was that he didn't really get much action in the series. I'm actually hoping for some *deus ex machina* to happen and bring him back :P. ARCHER DESERVES MORE!!!
Let us all join together in tribute to Archer.
"I don't mind buying time, but it wouldn't be a problem if I defeated him, would it?"
P.S. : Fanboys will love the next episode. Don't forget about Archer though.

JENNINGS — An 82-year-old Jennings woman died early Thursday after leaping off the Mermentau River Bridge on U.S. 90 east east of Jennings.
The body of Irene F. Jeanise was recovered from the river shortly after witnesses at the nearby Leevac Shipyard reported seeing a woman jump from the bridge around 7:15 a.m., according to Sheriff's Office Chief Criminal Investigator Christopher Ivey.
Deputies found the woman's vehicle parked on top of the bridge. The vehicle was locked with no one around, Ivey said.

This course emphasizes the role of marketing in creating value for customers, which in turn leads to value for other stakeholders in a firm (e.g., owners, shareholders, employees). The main objectives of the course are to improve your ability to:
1. Assess market opportunities by analyzing customers, competitors and the strengths and weaknesses of a company.
2. Design effective marketing strategies to maximize a company's chance of winning in these markets.
3. Communicate and defend your own marketing recommendations and critically examine and build upon the recommendations of others.
4. Learn the tools necessary to implement marketing strategy and improve performance.
5. Understand the interdependence of marketing decisions and their effects on the firm's customers and its competition.
The first half of the course focuses on marketing strategy. In order to make effective strategic decisions, managers must identify and measure consumers' needs and wants, assess the competitive environment, select the most appropriate customer targets and then develop marketing programs that satisfy consumers' needs better than the competition. Further, marketing focuses on the long-run relationship of a company to its customers as well as short-run sales and profits.
The second part of the course focuses on the decisions that managers make and the tools that they use to support an effective marketing strategy. The attraction and retention of profitable customers must involve consideration of the product or service being offered, the way in which the product is sold and distributed, how pricing is set and structured, and how the value of the offering is communicated.
Through class projects, hands-on group exercises, case studies, and class discussions we will explore marketing strategy and its implementation through what is traditionally called the "marketing mix." As we progress, it will become apparent that each of these decisions affects the others and that they must all be framed as part of an integrated marketing strategy.

BeschreibungEarly in the Civil War, young Terry O'Neill becomes obsessed with the idea of fighting in the Indian wars and volunteers for assignment at Fort Stanton in rugged New Mexico. He joins the famous Colonel Kit Carson, campaigning against the Apaches and Navajos in the deadly snowstorms of Canyon de Chelly, only to find himself a part of the Navajos' torturous "Long Walk" to imprisonment at Fort Sumner. Struggling to understand the enigmatic Kit Carson while facing death, suffering, and the love of a beautiful Navajo girl, Terry O'Neill's cavalier outlook matures in this tender story of real people and actual events during a tragic period of the Old West. * * * * * John A. Truett grew up in Artesia, New Mexico, leaving after high school to serve with the U.S. Air Force in Japan and the Philippines during World War II. After the war, he received his B.B.A. from Woodbury University in Los Angeles and worked in the motion picture industry for 18 years where he was script supervisor on public service films and assisted in writing scripts and film editing. He later was editor of three different industry newsletters at various manufacturing companies in Los Angeles. After making his home in Roswell, New Mexico, he dedicated himself to writing western fiction based on historical events in the American Southwest. Mr. Truett is also the author of "Clay Allison, Legend of Cimarron" and "Monument in the Storm," both from Sunstone Press.

Hao Street Races
Redirected from Shift Work
this wiki
Hao Street Races are a series of street races in Grand Theft Auto V for protagonist Franklin Clinton.
The first race is presented to the player by Hao, during the Strangers and Freaks mission, Shift Work. After completing the mission, a new race will be unlocked by a text message from Hao and Franklin must continue to win the races in order to proceed to the next one. There are a total of five races in the series, and are only accessible between 20:00 and 05:00 hours. Earning a medal in each of the Hao Street Races counts as 5 of the compulsory 42 Hobbies and Pastimes to achieve 100% Completion.
Shift Work
There is no entry fee for this race. It is two laps long and starts at Forum Drive in Chamberlain Hills against Hao and four other drivers. The reward for winning the race is $200. This race is triggered by meeting Hao for the first time in his Strangers and Freak mission and you must race him and four other racers.
It can be replayed through the Strangers and Freaks replay menu or by meeting the group of racers in Chamberlain Hills. If meeting the racers, the entry fee is $100 and the reward is $450 and Hao won't be taking part in the race. No 100% gold medal achievements can be completed this way, only through replay. If played through replay, the amount of money earned by winning the race won't be added to the player's account as he returns to the normal gameplay.
100% tasks
- Fastest Lap: Complete a lap within 01:20.
- Underdog: Finish the race within 02:50.
- Clean Race: Finish the race with less than 5 collisions.
City Circuit
The entry fee is $500. The race is one lap long. It starts on Clinton Avenue in Downtown Vinewood and goes throughout the northern and western part of Los Santos. The reward for winning is $2250.
The entry fee is $1000. The race is two laps long. It starts near the terminal of Los Santos International Airport and goes throughout much of southern Los Santos. The reward for winning the race is $4500.
The entry fee is $1250. The race is two laps long. It focuses on freeways such as the Olympic Freeway and the Del Perro Freeway, but is a very short course focusing primarily on the on- and off-ramps. The prize for winning is $5625.
Vespucci Canals
The entry fee is $1500. The race is two laps long and is for motorcycles only. It starts on Invention Court in Vespucci Canals, passing through the neighborhood of Vespucci and Del Perro. The reward for winning is $6750.
After winning all the races, Hao will call to congratulate the player.
Cut Races
Not much is known about this race other than it being a circuit race around the docks.
- Hao may be a reference to a Fast & Furious character named Han. Both are street racers and both own an orange and black car.
- If the Strangers and Freaks mission Shift Work is replayed, Franklin will have a Ruiner parked nearby as a default car ready to be used, though the player still can use any other vehicle for the race.
- The similar Ruiner was seen in Franklin's trailer.
- If a player approaches a racing gathering and decides to jack one of the cars, the race will be dismissed and the other people will usually run away scared.
- Cars driven by NPC racers include the Banshee, Feltzer, Sentinel XS, Prairie, and Dominator. These cars have modifications such as roll cages, and spoilers.
- If the player is a Rockstar Games Social Club member, NPC racers can also be seen driving an Elegy RH8.
- Race meet locations may show a parked 9F.
- At the beginning of each race, the car's radio will always be tuned into Soulwax FM.
- The track layout of the Freeway race is shaped like a penis.

Oakland County's Apportionment of Local Tax Rates:
Cities traditionally have a much higher millage rate than townships due to their requirements to maintain public streets, and typically to have DPW's for servicing water/sewer
Page 17 out of 34 in the .pdf covers Auburn Hills. Or page 11 of the printed copy
total non homestead millage is on average in the low 50s - of that amount, 10½ mills is allocated to local city government.
as I stated, the majority of property taxes go towards other allocations than local government.
so, for each $1,000,000 in Taxable Value that is at risk/reduced due to litigation the city budget has $10,520 at risk whereas the total property tax bill at risk/reduced is ~$52,000 (a property tax mill = $1 per thousand of Taxable Value. Taxable Value can not exceed SEV, which is intended to represent 50% of True Cash Value) of the total city budget, most often public safety, code enforcement, and the like see the lion's share of budgetary allocations rather than the assessor or treasurer's office.
due to the huge case load pending at the Michigan Tax Tribunal - most full/entire tribunal cases have 3-6 years at issue in one trial. any favorable judgment for a petitioner includes a pretty decent interest allocation on top of the tax savings.
now perhaps you can see why it would be profitable to appeal those complex / high valued properties and for a local community to simply roll over when the majority of tax dollars at risk are not their own...

Riley Cooper is back at Eagles camp after excused absence
ESPN's Chris Mortensen was the first reporter to drop this bombshell from the Philadelphia Eagles' training camp:
Riley Cooper is at Eagles facility this morning.
— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) August 6, 2013
Per Albert Breer of the NFL Network, Cooper's re-emergence took many by surprise. He met with team officials at the NovaCare Complex facility, and will reportedly participate in practice and be available to the media after.
Cooper, of course, was excused from all team activities last Friday and told to seek counseling after he was caught making a racial slur at a Kenny Chesney concert in June. Cooper practiced with the team just once after the video went viral last Wednesday.
"This is all new territory and we are going to evaluate this timetable every step of the way," the Eagles said in a statement last Friday. "He will meet with professionals provided by the Eagles during this period of time to better help him understand how his words have hurt so many, including his teammates."
To add a little spice to this, the Eagles will be taking part in a joint practice with the New England Patriots today, which will make this the first time Tim Tebow's ever been on a football field without anyone paying attention to him. Oh, wait -- silly us. Tebow was Cooper's quarterback at Florida, so he's in for a media scrum of his own.
[si_cvp_video id="video_B4540B7A-5C5A-009B-60A0-5509985B28E7"]
"The last few days have been incredibly difficult for me," Cooper said in a statement before leaving the team. "My actions were inexcusable. The more I think about what I did, the more disgusted I get. I keep trying to figure out how I could have said something so repulsive, and what I can do to make things better. "Right now, I think it's important for me to take some time to reflect on this situation. The organization and my teammates have been extremely supportive, but I also realize that there are people who will have a tough time forgiving me for what I've done. The best thing for me, and for the team, is to step away for a period of time. During this time I'm going to be speaking with a variety of professionals to help me better understand how I could have done something that was so offensive, and how I can start the healing process for everyone. As long as it takes, and whatever I have to do, I'm going to try to make this right."

In a cleverly designed experiment, cell biologists have discovered how dyneins organize chromosome placement to prepare for cell division. The surprise finding suggests it's the motor domain of the nanoscale chemical engine, not the cargo domain as once believed, that directs pre-mitotic action.
University of Massachusetts Amherst biologists have discovered a secret of how cells organize chromosomes to prepare for dividing. Their unexpected finding was recently reported in the journal, Current Biology.
The experiments sought to reveal how the cell's tiny, two-part chemical engine known as dynein, just 40 nanometers in diameter, takes charge of mitosis and keeps the delicate strands of chromosomes in order and in position. Until now, cell biologists had assumed it was the dynein's cargo domain that regulated this process. UMass Amherst cell biologist Wei-lih Lee and colleagues showed that it is the motor domain instead.
Dynein, like a delivery truck, carries cargo, Lee explains, but this protein truck is specialized because it interacts chemically and physically with the road. In the cell, this means dynein travels along segments of polymeric microtubule "roads" that grow and shrink as needed by adding or dropping sections. From experiments in budding yeast, Lee, with a talented postdoctoral fellow, Steven Markus, and biology junior fellow Jesse Punch, found that "dynein has a preference for locating at the ends of these microtubule tracks."
Lee says a lot of credit for a cleverly designed and executed set of experiments goes to Markus, who cut the dynein engines into motor and cargo halves and challenged the yeast cells to divide with access to only one part of the protein at a time. Markus also designed brighter-than-usual fluorescent probes to attach to the two dynein parts, red for the engine, green for the cargo domain. The strategies worked. The UMass Amherst research team now has one of the most elegant and practical probes for studying dynein function. Lee says, "I'm already getting requests from other researchers who want to use our new probes."
In this system, they observed that like a moving walkway at the airport, "dynein is a smart truck because it parks at the end of the microtubule, and 'rides' along as the track grows," Lee explains. "Our findings show that the dynein's motor domain, the engine's core, is responsible for this end-binding property, which is surprising given that the same domain is used for walking along the track."
Applying their new understanding to cell division, the researchers say, "our findings further suggest that the dynein engine is turned off when it is parked on the microtubule end, but then turned on upon reaching the proper attachment site in the daughter cell's wall," says Lee. "This mechanism allows the yeast cell to control dynein activation with high accuracy" and avoids potential problems of transporting an "activated" protein through the cell.
Results of this new knowledge in basic science are also relevant for human nerve cell function. "It has already been shown that nerve cells use the same mechanism as yeast does to move the cell body," says Lee. Dynein malfunction can lead to mistakes in nerve cell migration which causes poor brain development disease such as lissencephaly.

1957 in poetry

- March 25 – Copies of Allen Ginsberg's Howl and Other Poems (first published 1 November 1956) printed in England are seized by United States Customs Service officials in San Francisco on the grounds of obscenity.[1] On October 3, in People v. Ferlinghetti, a subsequent prosecution of publisher Lawrence Ferlinghetti in the city, the work is ruled not to be obscene.[2] The trial brings significant attention to the participants and other poets of the Beat Generation.
- Ginsberg surprises the literary world by abandoning San Francisco. After a spell in Morocco, he and Peter Orlovsky move to Paris, France, at the suggestion of Gregory Corso, who introduces them to a shabby lodging house above a bar at 9 rue Gît-le-Coeur kept by Mme Rachou, where they are soon joined by William S. Burroughs and others, including young painters, writers and black jazz musicians. The building becomes known as the "Beat Hotel". The writers' time here is a productive, creative period for many of them. Here, Ginsberg finishes his poem "Kaddish", Corso composes "Bomb" and "Marriage", and Burroughs (with Ginsberg and Corso's help) puts together the novel Naked Lunch from previous writings. Corso returns to New York in 1958; the "hotel" closes in 1963; and Ginsberg and Orlovsky leave for travels to India in 1967.
- Autumn – Black Mountain Review literary magazine folds.[3]

After earning her MBA from Yale in 2000, Christine joined BP and proceeded to work in Indonesia, China, and the U.K., managing the social impacts of some of the company's largest projects in the developing world. In 2006 she created a part-time pro bono role as advisor to the U.N. Special Representative for business and human rights, a role she took up full-time 2008-11. Christine competed in the 2002 World Ultimate Frisbee Club Championships, but now finds her athletic glory jogging along Manhattan's Hudson River and after her toddler twins.
The Evolution of a Corporate Idealist
We hear a lot about what big companies have to do to ensure a sustainable future. But what is it like to be one of the people who actually has to do it? What are the biggest challenges in pushing for change from deep inside the belly of the beast – and what are the keys to success? How do you maintain faith in your work when things go horribly wrong? Christine Bader shares stories and reflections from her nine years with BP, and the experiences of her Corporate Idealist peers in other industries.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Federal disaster aid was made available today for families and businesses in three Kentucky counties victimized by tornadoes and other violent weather last week, according to the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
FEMA Director James Lee Witt said the assistance was authorized under a major disaster declaration issued for the state by President Clinton. The declaration covers damage to private and public property from severe storms, tornadoes and flooding that hit the western portion of the state January 3-4.
The three counties designated by Witt for aid to stricken residents and business owners are Crittenden, Daviess, and Webster.
The assistance, to be coordinated by FEMA, can include grants to help pay for temporary housing, minor home repairs and other serious disaster-related expenses. Low-interest loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration also will be available to cover residential and business losses not fully compensated by insurance.
Additionally, Witt said federal funds will be provided for the state and affected local governments in Crittenden and Daviess counties to pay 75 percent of the eligible cost for debris removal, emergency services related to the disaster, and repairing or replacing damaged public facilities. The declaration also makes cost-shared funding available to the state for approved projects that reduce future disaster risks.
Witt indicated that damage surveys are continuing and additional counties may be designated for aid later based on the results of the assessments. He named A. Scott Wells of FEMA to coordinate the federal relief effort.
Wells said residents and business owners who sustained losses in the designated counties can begin the disaster application process by calling 1-800-462-9029, or 1-800-462-7585 (TDD) for the hearing and speech impaired. The toll-free telephone numbers will be available starting Tuesday, January 11, 2000 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week until further notice.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Jason Strudwick Brings More Than Play On Ice
by Paul on 09/20/07 at 08:47 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Journal News,
...But if there is a reason the 6-foot-4 Strudwick finds himself on the team's opening-night roster, it is because they do not have another player who so easily unites a dressing room.
It is an odd notion to think a player can crack a roster at the highest level of professional sports on the strength of his personality. But that may be the case with Strudwick, a tough, versatile player who others say has an inherent knack for bringing a team together.
"He knows how important it is to cross all boundaries, whether they're geographic or ethnic or whatever," Rangers coach Tom Renney said. "For Jason, it's just so natural, and because of that people trust his judgment and they like him a lot. They feel regardless of what his participation might be on the ice, he serves a huge advantage everywhere else."

Jane Lynch Says: 'Don't Major in College Debt'
Jane Lynch doesn't want you to struggle with student debt. On Tuesday, the actress launched the National College Finance Center website to provide a resource for educating students and their families about financing their college education. Lynch made a presentation in New York to highlight the features of the website and discuss America's college debt crisis. She said at the news conference:
I have several people in my own family, graduating nieces and nephews, both in school or just out of school, and they all have a mountain of debt. In fact, one of them is now dealing with the collection calls because they are unable to pay off their student loan. They didn't read the fine print. I'm doing this because I don't want other kids to be saddled with that kind of debt.
Lynch's family is not alone in dealing with debt. Rough economic times have compounded the student debt problem. With over one trillion dollars of outstanding student debt and the cost of a college education dramatically rising, many Americans are weighing the benefits of a college degree against the potential of accruing monstrous debt.
More: How Parents Actually Avoid College Debt
The Glee star hopes the site will help inform students and their families about paying for college. The site, which goes as far as breaking down state specific information, is structured to walk students through the process of financing the cost of their education. It shows kids how to take advantage of government resources and available scholarships and grants, before going through the process of taking out a loan.
For those living under the shadow of a mountain of debt, the site offers help structuring (and restructuring) loan repayment plans in addition to helping you budget your everyday life.

Holy Cupcake, Björkman!
Everything's bigger in Texas? Clearly, you've never been to Scandinavia.
You think you're pretty tough, huh Cowboy? Well I got news for you. You've got nothin' on the Nords. Yes, I'm pretty sure it's Nords.
Rodeo Schmodeo. So you can stay perched atop a bucking bronco for 8 seconds. Big whoop. Try luging down a frozen track at 90 mph with nothing between your head and certain icy death but a flimsy sled.
Texans have cattle driving. The Vikings had raping and pillaging. No contest.
Get out of here with your Texas toast. Just look at the size of the cupcake you can make with this Nordic Ware pan. It takes six cups of batter and serves four … if you're a lightweight. I know a guy named Åsbjörn Torbjörgen who can demolish a baker's dozen of these mutant confections.
You think that's just a mound of whipped frosting on top? Wrong. It's more cake. You bake the two halves separately and then stack them to make one ridiculously huge dessert. Think you can handle that, Tex? I didn't think so.
Warranty: 90 Day Nordic Ware
Condition: New
- We all know everyone loves cupcakes!
- This 6 cup, two-cavity pan comes together to make the perfect single cupcake

The Advanced Armament 300 AAC 16 Inch Blackout Rifle is a 30 caliber rifle the size of an AR15 5.56mm caliber rifle without a reduction in magazine capacity. The AAC MPW in 300 AAC Blackout uses ordinary 223/5.56mm magazines for a full 30 round capacity.
Components are of premium quality. The 1:7 twist barrel is nitrided to provide extreme corrosion resistance and high hardness for a long life - outperforming chrome-lined barrels for longevity without the potential impediments to accuracy. The muzzle is threaded 5/8-24 and includes an AAC 51-tooth BLACKOUT flash suppressor with the complete upper. A Knight's Armament free-floating URX III helps maintain accuracy while providing for the mounting of accessories. The bolt carrier group's nickel boron (Ni-B) UCT EXO coating has a very high hardness and lower friction than either chrome or nickel teflon. There is also a base layer of high-phosphorous electroless nickel that ensures the extreme corrosion protection that is absent from other Nickel Boron carriers that use a single, thinner layer. The bolt itself is Carpenter 158 phosphated shot peened steel to ensure precise dimensions with no concerns for hydrogen embrittlement in the critical lug area. A special green o-ring that is tested to not bind even at -40 degrees F is standard. The extractor spring is made from premium ultra-strong wire and is a low fatigue design to ensure the longest possible life. The extractor pin made from 300 ksi S2 tool steel not the much lower strength S7 more commonly used.
Finally, a properly-staked carrier-key with Permatex gasket-seal compound ensures no gas leakage. The trigger is a Geissele for great feel and reliability, and the stock and pistol grip by MagPul Industries. One magazine is included.
Optics, mounts, and silencer are not included.

Suffering, Curing, Healing
CLAL: the National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership, October 13, 1995
Judith Kerman discusses the concepts of suffering and healing within Judaism. She states that suffering can be "healed" but not "cured." Kerman believes healing is a transformative process, rather than simply a comfort mechanism to deal with suffering and in this sense, this process can be much more useful than a cure.
