Libya: NATO Provokes Humanitarian Crisis By Bombing Tripoli Port
May 21, 2011
Libya accuses NATO of causing humanitarian crisis
By Jomana Karadsheh
Tripoli, Libya: Libya on Saturday accused NATO of causing a humanitarian crisis after airstrikes targeted the government-controlled port in Tripoli, saying the attacks have limited movement of supply ships in and out of the country.
The claim by Moammar Gadhafi's government comes after NATO said it struck Libyan warships that had been targeting its ships….
NATO warplanes have been pounding military targets since March….
The NATO airstrikes against the Tripoli port as well as ports in Al-Khums and Sirte violated the U.N. resolution, said Amran al-Forjani, Libya's chief coastguard commandant. He called the operation a "crazy attack."
A Libyan official who led CNN personnel on a tour of the area Friday said the commercial port, not the nearby military port, was hit….
Six rockets struck in three strikes that hit five coast guard boats and one navy vessel in dock for maintenance, said Mohammed Ahmed Rashed, the port general manager.
The port remained operational, according to officials, but the strikes would impact the limited movement of supply ships.
Libyan officials said the port is the main food and fuel supply line, and they expect the strikes to deter freight ships from coming because of security concerns and to increase the insurance on ships and goods.
Canada Expends Hundreds Of Bombs, $300 Million On Libyan War

Libyan mission could cost taxpayers hundreds of millions, retired colonel says
Ottawa: Dollar figures for the war in Libya will be made public soon, a Canadian Forces general said Wednesday, but the final cost may not be known for months to come.
One military expert says Canadian spending could easily amount to millions of dollars per day.
"I'd be surprised if it was anything less than $100 million (per month)," said retired Col. Michel Drapeau. "It needs to be asked: What are we getting for all that? It's not an omnipotent pool of resources. Someone's got to pay for that."
Canada currently has 11 planes, one frigate and approximately 560 military personnel deployed for the Libyan mission, which began at the end of March.
Since that time, CF-18 fighter jets have conducted some 300 bombing missions….
The cost for a mission doesn't just include munitions, fuel and salaries, Drapeau said.
There are also hidden expenses, he said, such as travel costs to send senior officials to conferences and a payment to Italy for hosting Canadian Forces.
"All of that should be counted, as it should, but in times of war, you throw away normal budgetary restraint."
During a regular briefing on the NATO-led mission in Libya, Canadian Forces spokesman Brig.-Gen. Richard Blanchette wouldn't say how much Canada has spent in Libya, nor would he say how many bombs Canadian planes have dropped.
Blanchette cited "operational security" as the reason why he couldn't divulge the number of bombs dropped on Libyan targets, nor the number and cost of laser-guided bombs the department has ordered to shore up munition stocks.
On May 12, the U.S. military reported that it had spent about $750 million on the mission in Libya.
Russia: NATO Wages War For "Regime Change" In Libya

Moscow thinks NATO seeks regime change in Libya
Moscow believes that NATO seeks a regime change in Libya. This was stated by the Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich.
According to him, serious doubts arise regarding the true political goals of the coalition's military campaign in the Jamahiriya.
In addition, the Russian Foreign Ministry statement says that the destruction of eight Libyan navy vessels by NATO aircraft the previous night does not comply with the UN Security Council resolution to protect the civilian population.
U.S.-NATO European Missile Shield Targets Russia, General Claims

European Missile Shield Targets Russia, General Claims
-"If the U.S. deploys its missile defense components in Poland, Romania or other NATO countries, we will have little choice," the anonymous source said. "We will have to deploy S-400s on the western boundaries of the Belarus-Russian Union."
A Russian army analysis has concluded that the Obama administration's planned European missile shield is targeted against Russia and not the Middle East as has been asserted by the United States, Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported on Friday (see GSN, May 16).
The army's analysis shows the missile defense system would undermine the nuclear balance that has governed NATO-Russian strategic relations on the continent, Russian General Staff operations head Lt. Gen. Andrei Tretiak said.
The U.S. "phased adaptive approach" for European missile defense would over the next decade field increasingly advanced sea- and land-based missile interceptors around the continent as a declared hedge against potential missile strikes launched from the Middle East. The Obama plan is to be folded into a broader NATO initiative to link and augment individual member nations' antimissile capabilities.
Moscow has long been critical of U.S. and NATO antimissile efforts, seeing in them an attempt to weaken the Russian nuclear deterrent.
"Our analysis has shown that the initial phases of the U.S. system do not pose a threat to Russian strategic nuclear weapons," Tretiak said in remarks carried by Interfax. "This will change by the third and fourth phases, that is by 2015."
Once completed, the missile shield would "directly threaten the Russian nuclear potential," the general asserted.
According to the White House fact sheet on the planned system, the third phase of the plan around 2018 would see next-generation Standard Missile 3 Block 2A missiles deployed "to counter short-, medium-, and intermediate-range missile threats."
The fourth phase would around 2020 see the SM-3 Block 2B interceptor fielded to "help better cope with medium- and intermediate-range missiles and the potential future ICBM threat to the United States," according to the White House.
Tretiak said the number of interceptors Washington intends to deploy no later than 2015 would give it the ability to eliminate a significant quantity of Russia's sea- and land-based missiles. Such a capability would jeopardize nuclear parity between the two one-time Cold War antagonists, he said.
The White House said its plan for 2015, in the second phase of the program, is to "deploy a more capable version of the SM-3 interceptor (Block 1B) in both sea- and land-based configurations, and more advanced sensors, to expand the defended area against short- and medium-range missile threats" (Deutsche Presse-Agentur/Monsters and Critics, May 20).
A diplomatic-military insider in Moscow told Interfax on Thursday that Russia could send its advanced S-400 antimissile system to Belarus to safeguard the two allies' western borders if it perceives a threat from U.S. and NATO missile shield activities.
"If the U.S. deploys its missile defense components in Poland, Romania or other NATO countries, we will have little choice," the anonymous source said. "We will have to deploy S-400s on the western boundaries of the Belarus-Russian Union."
In November, Russia and the alliance agreed to jointly study areas for potential missile defense collaboration. A report on the matter had been expected in June but recent statements from Russian officials familiar with the expert-level discussions show that Moscow still has considerable concerns about NATO antimissile plans.
While the United States has proposed establishing two separate but coordinated operations that would exchange missile alert warning information, Moscow has advocated a sectoral approach that would see the continent divided into two realms of missile defense responsibility. Washington has shown little interest in that proposal, saying it would never leave any NATO state's missile protection to Moscow to ensure.
"Since Belarus is Russia's strategic ally, it would be appropriate to sell it weapons at market prices within the union's framework," the Moscow source said. "Therefore, we will look for ways to provide government support that would enable us to build not only a common air defense but also a missile defense and later a space defense system" (Interfax, May 19).
Russia Tests Nuclear Missile Amid Missile Shield Row With U.S.
Agence France-Presse

Russia tests nuclear missile amid row with US
Russia has conducted its second intercontinental ballistic missile test in less than a month as it stepped up its campaign against a US-backed interceptor system for Europe.
News reports said the Sineva missile was launched from a Russian submarine in the Barents Sea and later successfully hit its target on the opposite side of the country on the Kamchatka Peninsula.
"The launch was conducted from a submerged position," defence ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov told Russian news agencies.
"The warheads hit the test range on schedule," he added.
The Sineva submarine-launched missile is one of the most recent additions to Russia's nuclear arsenal and was only fully tested for the first time in 2008.
Each missile carries up to 10 warheads and has a range of more than 11,000 kilometres.
It was the second submerged missile launch conducted by Russia since April 26.
Russia occasionally tests its heavy nuclear missiles as it upgrades outdated models with new features and capabilities.
But the tests are also often seen as a show of force that coincide with diplomatic tensions with the US.
Russia had scaled back its testing programme as it negotiated a new nuclear disarmament treaty with the United States that went into effect after nearly a decade of tortuous negotiations earlier this year.
Yet Moscow is currently furious with Washington for pushing ahead with plans to deploy a missile defence system for Europe – a shield that Russia fears could one day be transformed into an offensive weapon that targets its soil.
Russia has demanded an equal say in how the system works and also sought formal security safeguards from the United States confirming the shield's peaceful long-term intent.
But both the United States and NATO have refused to let Russia have an equal say in the system's construction and operation.
Moscow diplomats said Washington has also refused their safeguards request.
President Dmitry Medvedev warned earlier this week Washington's failure to address Russia's concerns could lead to a new Cold War and his comments were echoed overnight by the chief of the military's general staff.
General Nikolai Makarov said the system could pose a direct challenge to Russia's security once it becomes more powerful in 2015 and force Moscow to channel funds on new weapons development that could lead to "a mad arms race".
"No one needs a new round of the arms race," Makarov said.

Russia tests Sineva SLBM
Moscow: Russia has successfully test-fired a Sineva submarine-launched ballistic missile in the Barents Sea, a Defense Ministry spokesman said on Friday.
The missile hit the designated target at the Kura test range in the Far East in time, Col. Igor Konashenkov said.
The RSM-54 Sineva (NATO codename SS-N-23 Skiff) is a third-generation liquid-propellant intercontinental ballistic missile that entered service with the Russian Navy in July 2007. It has a maximum range of over 10,000 km (6,214 miles) and can carry four to 10 nuclear warheads, depending on the modification.
The previous Sineva test launch was held in April.
Russia: U.S. Missile System To Extend To Czech Republic, Bulgaria And Turkey
Bloomberg News

Russia Says U.S. May Extend Missile Shield to Bulgaria, Turkey
By Ilya Arkhipov and Henry Meyer
Russia is concerned the U.S. may expand its planned missile shield in Poland and Romania to other eastern European countries and Turkey, a senior military official said.
"Russia is deeply concerned that after Poland and Romania, elements of U.S. missile defense will emerge in the Czech Republic, Turkey, Bulgaria and some other NATO members," the deputy chief of Russia's general staff, Valery Gerasimov, told foreign diplomats today in Moscow. "In the future, it may create risks for Russian strategic nuclear forces."
A U.S. factsheet on its proposed missile shield, published May 3, mentions only Romania and Poland as sites where hardware would be based. The U.S. embassy in Moscow declined to comment.
Russian leaders complain the shield, which the U.S. says is needed to guard against threats from countries such as Iran, will blunt their nuclear deterrent. They have warned of a new arms race within the next decade unless the U.S. and its allies agree to cooperate with Russia on missile defense.
Russia may quit a nuclear arms treaty with the U.S. if it doesn't get legally enforceable guarantees it won't be targeted by the shield, President Dmitry Medvedev said May 18.
U.S. Assurances On Interceptor Missiles Ring Hollow: Russia

U.S. assurances on missile defence "ring hollow": Russia
Vladimir Radyuhin
Russia has upped the ante in its standoff with the United States over missile defence in Europe warning of a "mad arms race" if Washington goes ahead with its plans.
Russia's Chief of the General Staff Army General Nikolai Makarov said U.S. assurances that the proposed missile defence system in Europe does not threaten Russia "ring hollow" and Moscow would be forced to take countermeasures as early as 2015.
"In five or six years, a mad arms race could start. And the process could last indefinitely," Army General Makarov told foreign military diplomats at a conference on the European missile defence in Moscow on Friday.
The statement followed Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's repeated warning that the world could be thrown back to the Cold War if NATO fails to cooperate with Russia on missile defence.
"If we fail to agree, Europe will slide back to the early 1980s," Mr. Medvedev said at a judicial forum in St. Petersburg on Friday. "I don't want to live in such a Europe."
To avoid this scenario, Russia "must be a participant in building the missile defence system through all its stages, right from drawing up its architecture," the General Staff chief said. "So far we have only heard the word 'no'."
Lieutenant General Andrei Tretyak, chief of operations at the Russian General Staff, said a new Russian Army analysis found that the U.S. shield, when fully deployed during the third and fourth stages of President Barack Obama's "phased adaptive approach", would "directly threaten the Russian nuclear potential."
By 2012, when the U.S. would field more than 300 interceptor missiles in Europe it would "acquire a credible capability to destroy Russian land- and submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles," L-General Tretyak said, adding that this would upset the nuclear balance between the two countries.
Deputy chief of Russia's general staff Colonel General Valery Gerasimov said that Russia was "deeply concerned" that after Poland and Romania, elements of U.S. missile defense will be deployed "in the Czech Republic, Turkey, Bulgaria and some other NATO members."
Moscow has stepped up its rhetoric against the U.S. missile plans for Europe in the run-up to a G8 summit next week in France, on the sidelines of which the U.S. and Russian presidents will hold bilateral talks that will cover the missile defence problem.

Afghanistan: German Troops Fired on Protesters
By RAY RIVERA
The German Defense Ministry acknowledged Friday that its troops had fired on demonstrators during a violent protest in the northern Afghan city of Taliqan this week, wounding several civilians and possibly killing some.
The demonstrations erupted Wednesday after a joint American and Afghan night raid at a family compound just outside the city that left four people dead, two of them women.
NATO said the four were insurgents who tried to fire at its troops, but local officials insisted they were civilians.
When the protesters tried to attack a small German-run NATO base on the outskirts of the city, the ministry said, German troops fired warning shots in the air before shooting at the legs of the attackers.
Some protesters were hit in the torso and at least one was hit in the neck and head region, the statement said. At least 12 people were killed in the two days of protests. German authorities said they were investigating the shootings.

NATO not to leave A'stan after transition
NATO and the countries participating in the operation in Afghanistan will not leave the country after 2014, when Afghan troops will have taken over the security responsibility.
NATO's point man on Central Asia and Caucasus James Appaturai told Radio Deutsche Welle that the coalition forces would remain on the ground "until Afghans are ready to ensure security on their own."
720 coalition soldiers died in Afghanistan last year. President Barack Obama earlier promised to start handing over control to Afghan security forces from the beginning of 2011 and complete the transition by the end of 2014.

Pakistan stops NATO supplies after 16 people killed in blast
Pakistani authorities Saturday suspended supplies to the foreign troops in neighboring Afghanistan hours after a blast at an NATO oil tanker killed 16 persons, officials said, Xinhua reported.
An official said that suspected militants attacked and torched NATO oil tankers in two separate incidents late Friday night at Landikotal, a main town in Khyber region and the borer point of Torkham.
When locals gathered around the tanker at Landikotal to acquire the leaked oil, the tanker blew up due to gas pressure, killing 16 persons there.
Pakistan suspended supplies to nearly 160,000 U.S.-led NATO troops after the incident, officials in the region said.
Witnesses said that hundreds of NATO supplies trucks were stranded on the main Pakistan-Afghan highway after the blockade.
Officials said that some 70 percent supplies for the NATO troops are transported through Pakistan.
Militants, fighting Pakistani forces, regularly target NATO supply trucks, also forcing the U.S. to sign alternate supply routes with Russia.
"Tulip Revolution II" Moving Kyrgyzstan Into NATO Column?
May 20, 2011
Otunbayeva on Defensive on NATO-Kyrgyzstan Cooperation
by Joshua Kucera
When Kyrgyzstan announced that NATO would be refurbishing border posts and arms depots in the Central Asian country, many observers (including this blog: http://www.eurasianet.org/node/63471) took it as a sign of President Roza Otunbayeva's decision to move the country decisively toward the west and away from Russia.
But in an interview with state radio on May 16, transcribed and translated by BBC Monitoring, she took great pains to disabuse listeners of that notion. She highlights NATO's cooperation with Russia, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan to portray Kyrgyzstan's cooperation as nothing special. I'll quote at length because the vehemence of her statement seems telling. The questioner asked a very bland question about the possibility of a NATO liaison office opening in Bishkek:
"NATO is a prestigious security organization of Europe and America. All people know about it. We have had relations with NATO f! or 20 years. It is not only us, but Russia and other CIS countries also have relations. Kyrgyz people too know about it. Major powers have been kicking us to and fro like a ball. We should not surrender. We are pursuing our own goals and we are a sovereign state too.
"We are pursuing our own policies and implementing them. As you know, there is a great deal of reports, particularly in the Russian media that we have got closer to NATO and away from them. We are a little nation compared to Russia. NATO's cooperation with Russia is enormously broad. Russia has learnt about security issues from Europe and is using its experience. Russia is getting extensive help from them. But when it comes to us, they get jealous and express a view to us something along the lines 'how do you get ahead and how can you hold talks with them [NATO]'. This casts a shadow over our independence. A number of our generals sing to Russia [as published] about ways things should be. I want to say that Appathurai is NATO's representative for Central Asia. He pays a visit once ! or twice a year. Apart from Kyrgyzstan, he visited Tajikistan and Kazakhstan. It was his official visit and he came to us too.
"When I visited Brussels last March, I met NATO's secretary general. Everyone meets him. [Kazakh President] Nazarbayev, [Uzbek President] Karimov and [Russian President] Medvedev meet him too. There is nothing wrong with it. We, as a country, meet, talk and cooperate. For example, NATO is doing a number of important projects for us. For example, when the Russian army shrank after the 1990s, when they were wondering what to do with all of them and those retired military servicemen aged between 50 and 55 and those military servicemen from Germany, NATO gave them enormous help. NATO helped to turn them into businesses and to find jobs for them. This occurrence has come to us too 20 years later. They want to help us too. We have also reduced the army. The army is now contract-based. We also have a great deal of unemployed people. All of them! do not know where to go after they reach 55 and leave the army. NATO is teaching all of them to do business. What is
wrong with it? Second, weapons depots are in a very bad state of disrepair. NATO is saying that it can take care of them and repair them since we cannot do it ourselves for now. We held talks on that. Kyrgyzstan needs this too."
[Passage omitted: some 40-50 Kyrgyz go on UN's peace keeping missions abroad every year]
"NATO's Central Asian mission has worked in Kazakhstan for three years. They agreed what would come after the three years before Otunbayeva. They work in every republic for three years. They have finished working in Kazakhstan. Now they will move to Kyrgyzstan. After Kyrgyzstan, they will go to Uzbekistan or Tajikistan. So it rotates like this. This naturally requires the Kyrgyz parliament's approval. So, the rotation is not out of turn. There is no need for saying baseless words that Otunbayeva is again drawing closer to the West. We are cooperating as much as we can. We are bringing good things to Kyrgyzstan. We are far from saying that we would join NATO or become NATO's slave here. I do not understand why we should support someone's views and dance to their tune and then spread baseless words among people."
So is she right that Kyrgyzstan's cooperation with NATO is getting too much attention, or doth she protest too much? My guess is that it's the latter, but she's facing internal political pressure from people who aren't comfortable with NATO cooperation. This is an issue that probably won't go away soon.
U.S. Strengthens Military, Strategic Ties With Saudi Arabia

US and Saudi Arabia deepening military, strategic ties
Amidst the political upheavals in the Middle east and North Africa, the U.S. is expanding its military and defense relations with Saudi Arabia on a grand scale, according to media reports.
Among the elements of this arrangement is a secretive project to create an elite force that will safeguard Saudi's vast oil wealth future nuclear energy power plants.
Washington is reportedly also in talks to senior Saudi officials about the formation of a sophisticated air and missile defense system that will exceed the comparable capabilities of its biggest regional enemy, Iran.
Indeed, the Saudis are seeking to spend $60-billion on dozens of new US-built F-15 combat aircraft that will guarantee military superiority over Tehran.

[The Eastern Partnership is the European Union's program to "integrate" all non-Central Asian former Soviet republics except Russia: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine.]
Tbilisi: The Parliamentary Forum of Democratic Union held in Georgia has adopted a Tbilisi Declaration.
The declaration focuses on the need for the EU's more active involvement in the Eastern Partnership politics, Georgian Parliamentary Speaker David Bakradze told journalists.
"The document also calls on the European Parliament and the European Commission to more actively involve in and support the processes ongoing in the region, particularly in Georgia, and assist more in the way of European integration," Bakradze said.
The declaration includes a separate item on Georgia, which positively evaluated reforms in the country.
"The Forum one again reiterated its support for Georgia's territorial integrity. The 2010-Forum adopted a special resolution which condemned the occupation of Georgia's territory by Russia. The new resolution has been repeated the main points of the last resolution," he added.
The Tbilisi declaration also included a separate paragraph on the North Africa.
"The declaration also recorded the support of all those democratic processes that began in North Africa," Bakradze said.

Mosquitoes carrying the West Nile virus have been discovered in the Whitney Ranch area and are likely throughout the Las Vegas Valley, according to the Southern Nevada Health District.
Some mosquitoes in the 89014 ZIP code tested positive for the virus, officials said. No human cases of the West Nile virus have been reported this year.
The virus infected eight people in 2012, killing one, and infected 11 in 2011, the district reported.
Symptoms of West Nile virus include fever, headache, body aches, nausea, vomiting, swollen lymph glands and skin rash on the chest, stomach and back. In some cases, the virus can cause severe illness or death.
The illness is spread by the bite of infected mosquitoes and is not spread person-to-person.
To report standing bodies of water where mosquitoes breed, the district recommends contacting local code enforcement agencies.

1. Beautiful!
PBO and VPB....as always look great together.
Two charismatic men, that balance each other so well.
Here's the text of his speech.
Remarks by the President on Immigration Reform
East Room
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. Please have a seat, everybody. Good morning, and welcome to the White House. Today Im here with leaders from business, from labor, from faith communities who are united around one goal -- finishing the job of fixing a broken immigration system.
This is not just an idea whose time has come; this is an idea whose time has been around for years now. Leaders like all of you have worked together with Republicans and Democrats in this town in good faith for years to try to get this done. And this is the moment when we should be able to finally get the job done.
Now, its no secret that the American people havent seen much out of Washington that they like these days. The shutdown and the threat of the first default in more than 200 years inflicted real pain on our businesses and on families across the country. And it was a completely unnecessary, self-inflicted wound with real costs to real people, and it can never happen again.
Even with the shutdown over, and the threat of default eliminated, Democrats and Republicans still have some really big disagreements -- there are some just fundamentally different views about how we should move forward on certain issues. On the other hand, as I said the day after the shutdown ended, that's no reason that we shouldnt be able to work together on the things that we do agree on.
I think I read somewhere that if the release is from the Whitehouse, it can be copied in full. However the rest is at the link.
Thanks so much Cha~

2. It is brilliant what President Obama, VP Biden and the Democrats are trying
to do for Sensible Immigration. I see it's going over here about as well as it's going over with the teabaggers in the House.
But, even if it doesn't get to come up for a Vote because of the chicken livered speaker.. President Obama, et al will be able to show the People in our Country what they're trying to do for Immigration Reform.. especially when CLEAN HOUSE GOTV2014 comes around. They look so happy at the White House today!
Thank you for the transcript of PBO's Remarks on Immigration Reform, she.

Don't want to sound lazy, but we depend on you a lot for these things, as well as sheshe and several others.
I look forward to hearing from the Castro twins on this subject. The TPs might have Cruz and Rubio, but one of ours can lick a dozen of theirs with one hand tied behind his back!

Julián Castro's DNC Keynote Speech - Elections 2012
Published on Sep 4, 2012
Mayor Julián Castro of San Antonio delivered the keynote speech Tuesday night at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, the same speech that propelled then-Senator Barack Obama to fame in 2004.
But as to recent commentary by him on this, I haven't found it. Will keep looking...

13. Good question on what Julian and Joaquin thoughts were on Immigration Reform, Irish..
this is what I found so far..
Julian Castro..
"Mexican President Felipe Calderon expressed his appreciation to Mayor Julian Castro for San Antonio's pro-Mexico relationship, especially in business investments, in a meeting that lasted nearly an hour Monday evening. Castro declared support for comprehensive immigration reform and listed business investments San Antonio companies have made in Mexico.
Castro said afterward that he cited as examples H-E-B, which operates 36 Mexico stores, and Valero Energy Corp.'s dealings with Mexico's government-owned energy company, Petroleos Mexicanos, or PEMEX. Castro said he told Calderon that Texas has "a better approach to immigration policy than other hard-line states. I said, 'We have a more reasoned approach that can provide a better opportunity for a compromise'" on U.S. immigration reform."
Joaquin Castro..
House Democrats Unveil Immigration Reform Bill; Pressure House GOP To Do Their Job
"After finally having enough of the nonsense from their colleagues across the aisle and sending an ultimatum to House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) to do his job, House Democrats are taking leadership of the issue and have unveil their own immigration reform bill this Wednesday.
Key Democratic lawmakers in the chamber -- including Nancy Pelosi (D-California), the top House Democrat; Xavier Becerra (D-California), and Congressional Hispanic Caucus chairman Ruben Hinojosa (D-Mercedes, Texas) -- worked on a comprehensive piece of legislation since summer.
"Every piece of this legislation has had bipartisan support, and that is important to us," said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
The New Democrat Coalition -- a group of more moderate lawmakers in the caucus -- were key in crafting the legislative effort and are expected to play a major role with the House Democrats' immigration strategy. New Democrats Joe Garcia (D-Florida), Suzan DelBene (D-Washington), Jared Polis (D-Colorado), and our own Joaquin Castro (D-San Antonio, Texas) will help lead the fight to champion immigration reform in the House."
Please read the rest..
The teabagger klan doesn't want it.. so if it even comes up for a Vote it will be a miracle but as I said .. the Dems are working hard on this in spite of the Obstruction and it will count for a lot to those People in our country who want this to happen.
And, that's from Republicons.. and we know Dems want it..
Polls Show Strong Support for Immigration Reform by Republicans
"Seems like immigration reform has finally grown on Republicans.
Research by GOP pollster, Whit Ayres, shows more than two thirds of Republicans support immigration reform, including providing a pathway to citizenship for the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the country. Indeed, Republicans want to see something done."

Photos: Immigration reform pastry protest at Republican offices in Livonia disrupted by police
LIVONIA, MI The Mexican food might not have been delivered, but the message was.
The shared stories of deportation are similar, all ending with grief-stricken families and fatherless children.
A group of more than 15, many Mexican immigrants, some undocumented, gathered in front of the Republican headquarters on Plymouth Road in Livonia just before lunch Thursday.
They came with Mexican dishes and planned to deliver the authentic cuisine, including tortillas, tamales and pande muerto, a dish served on the Mexican Day of the Dead holiday celebration, to GOP employees.
So many lives are at stake. So many families splintered.

Best Of :: Arts & Entertainment
Last year we honored the FLIFF in this category almost begrudgingly, in part because it was "pretty much the only game in town." Well, after a decade and a half it's still the biggest game in town and at 28 days has expanded to claim the dubious honor of being the longest film fest in the world. (Palm Beach, of course, has its own affair, but it just doesn't stack up.) Fortunately the FLIFF has clung to the things that have long set it apart, including its predilection for films with little or no commercial potential, its support for gay and lesbian cinema, and its occasional sixth sense when it comes to anticipating Academy Award contenders. The most recent festival gave us samples of each: the shamefully overlooked Maze, a fascinating study of an unlikely romance between a Tourette's-afflicted painter (Northern Exposure actor Rob Morrow, who also directed the flick) and a friend (Laura Linney, whose excellent work was overshadowed by her Oscar-nominated performance in You Can Count on Me); the knockout, Cassavetes-style gay drama Straight Man and the uneven but worthwhile lesbian-themed coming-of-age tale Swimming; and the Oscar-nominated Shadow of the Vampire, as well as the surprisingly overlooked State and Main from director David Mamet. The festival also reaffirmed its commitment to independent filmmaking with a tribute to John Waters, including a screening of his underrated Cry-Baby, a showing of a documentary about him titled In Bad Taste, and an appearance by the rogue moviemaker.
He was just passing through, never staying in one place more than a year. We knew that, but it's still hard to admit that's he's really gone -- with no forwarding address. That's probably why we feel a little like a jilted lover. The good news is, Chris Chandler liked us. He really, really liked us. He wrote about the area in an e-mail to his South Florida friends, "I like to think of Hollywood as pre-scene'.... The rent is cheap, there are a dozen places to hear affordable live music where the beer is cheap, and there are no A&R reps shaking the bushes to find Eminem taking a leak." High praise indeed. And of course, audiences who heard Chandler perform know this "folken-word" poet was just warming up his praise when he typed that missive. We'll miss the guy who pointed out poetically that the coldest place on earth is a South Florida movie theater, that karaoke-style, cover-tune-like guitar-strumming is crap, and that many of our residents look like George W. Bush when he's asked a simple question (which goes a long way toward explaining the election). Let's hope we do something really stupid that attracts national attention soon so Chandler comes back for a visit.
Theatergoers found a lot of reasons to dislike Paul Tei this season. He played a cold-blooded child-murderer in New Theatre's Never the Sinner and a hot-blooded serial killer in GableStage's Popcorn. But he is so good at being bad that we can't really hold it against him. Tei is the kind of actor who looks at a role not only as an opportunity to perform but also as a chance to create a persona. Consequently he can portray several different degenerates without his performances overlapping. As Wayne, the gun-toting redneck in Popcorn, Tei kept us riveted to our seats -- appalled and laughing. But as Richard Loeb, a wealthy young Chicago man who, along with his lover, kills a young boy on a Nietzsche-inspired whim, he was outstandingly appalling. Tei never let audiences simply dislike his character. With his willingness to take risks and push the boundaries of character definition, he could make Ted Bundy funny. He dared to play the insolent, arrogant murderer Loeb as childlike and capricious -- clubbing a kid in the head one moment and going out for hot dogs the next. Tei's topnotch acting transformed these two good plays into excellent ones.
An actress's success in a dramatic role can fall into one of two categories: the ability to make the unbelievable believable, and the ability to make the believable unbelievably incredible. Bridget Connors managed to do both in her role as a young Jewish woman dying of a terminal illness. That's the believable part. Rachel's plight could easily have been a case study in Harold S. Kushner's book When Bad Things Happen to Good People. She expressed all the predictable emotions and asked all the right metaphysical questions. The not-so-believable part is the conversion experience she had, which was facilitated by her sister, a devout member of the Christian Science faith. Believable or unbelievable, Connors brought something magical to the role from the moment she stepped on-stage. Her ability to be simultaneously earthy and ethereal left theatergoers feeling as if they were seeing a tragedy for the first time.
There are traditional galleries, and then there's Lumonics, "a specialized sensory environment," as its founders put it, which is easily South Florida's most unusual venue for multimedia art. Housed in a nondescript strip of businesses just north of the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, Lumonics brings together light sculptures, water sculptures (in other words, fountains), performance art, digital video, laser art, dance, and music, all in one blow-your-mind complex. Dorothy Tanner and her husband, Mel (who died in 1993), started Lumonics as a showcase for large-scale acrylic sculptures that combine bright colors with internal lighting. Those pieces, along with water sculptures, are still displayed in a few small rooms and in the large main theater, which is where things really get interesting. From an upstairs control booth, a pair of artists (originally Dorothy and Mel, now Dorothy and Marc Billard) create one-of-a-kind performances set to music that include digital video projections and lasers dancing across a 35-foot wall that serves as their palette. Tanner and her collaborators originally created their soundtracks using jazz, classical, and New-Age music, but have lately leaned more toward original material by Tanner and Billard. And their regular hour-and-a-half shows have evolved more or less into "happenings," with the main performance followed by late-night parties in the adjacent Nite-Light gallery, where visitors can dance to cutting-edge DJ music or just hang out among the light sculptures.
Who can turn the world on with a smile? Who can take a nothing day and suddenly make it all seem worthwhile? Better still, who can sponsor a punk-rock food fight, inviting fans to attend a show and pelt band members with fruits and vegetables? It's the Mary Tyler Whores, of course, Broward's messy purveyors of stripped down, below-the-belt punk. For authenticity the band includes Joey Image, original drummer for protohardcore pioneers the Misfits. For fun the band sports an irreverent, clever handle. And for the hell of it, the musicians will let you throw your rotten citrus at them for no extra charge. Fort Lauderdale's Culture Room is a prime spot to pick up these Whores.

We are located in the heart of California's Central Valley. We are a small family operated kennel breeding family oriented dogs. Being in a farming family with lots of acreage for a dog to run on, and a love for hunting at a young age, I was constantly on the lookout for the perfect companion and working dog. The Labrador Retriever was the answer.
Our love for the Labrador Retriever gave us the desire to produce a dog with a good temperament and healthy genetic background. All of our dogs are lovingly raised by our entire family. With four children of preschool-high school age, the puppies are well played with and handled from the moment they are born. The puppies have on multiple occasions been known to be seen wrapped in blankets, being pushed around the yard in strollers, or been snuck into the house as babies! Our children actively take part in the care and raising of the puppies, with each having specific tasks involved with the puppies.
The overall health, temperament, and conformation of each individual dog is taken into consideration before each breeding. We try to compliment one dogs weaknesses with another's strengths to produce the best possible puppy. Keeping in mind that there is no perfect dog out there, we take into consideration every aspect of each dog. One dog may have a beautiful conformation, a very desirable temperament, and clear eyes, but may be weak in the hips or elbows. Through conversations with our veterinarian and using our own experiences from the past, we would try to match that dog to one with stronger joints. Keep in mind that genetic testing is not a guarantee that the puppies will have perfect joints and eyes, but it is a good insurance policy. If both parents have good joints and eyes, there is less chance that the puppies will be affected. If you want more information on Hip or Elbow Dysplasia, please see Orthopedic Foundation for Animals website at www.offa.org. For more information on Eye Screenings go to the the Canine Eye Registration's website at www.vmbd.org/cerf.html.
We have recently had all our breeding adults tested for Centronuclear Myopothy (CNM) which is a hereditary disease becoming more common in the Labrador Retriever. All of our dogs were cleared and given a registration number. Any offspring coming from parents that have both been cleared have no chance of carrying the gene and therefore cannot spread the disease. Centronuclear Myopothy is a degenerative disease that can leave a dog completely crippled at a very young age. For more information visit the Centronuclear Myopothy website at www.labradorcnm.com.
True Labrador Retriever temperament is as much a hallmark of the breed as the "otter" tail. The ideal disposition is one of a kindly, outgoing, tractable nature; eager to please and non-aggressive towards man or animal. The Labrador Retriever has much that appeals to people; his gentle ways, intelligence and adaptability make him an ideal dog.

Type of Document Dissertation Author Zhang, Wei Author's Email Address email@example.com,email@example.com URN etd-04042012-211349 Title Fatigue Performance of Existing Bridges under Dynamic Loads from Winds and Vehicles Degree Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Department Civil & Environmental Engineering Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Cai, Steve C.S. Committee Chair Barbato, Michele Committee Member Levitan, Marc L. Committee Member Wahab, Muhammad A Committee Member Guzik, T. Gregory Dean's Representative Keywords
- vehicle-bridge-wind dynamic system
- road roughness index
- cycles per truck passage
- equivalent orthotropic material method (EOMM)
- equivalent nodal force
- stochastic random road profile
- nominal live load stress range
Date of Defense 2012-03-12 Availability unrestricted AbstractDuring the life cycle of bridges, varied amplitude of stress ranges on structural details are induced by the random traffic and wind loads. The progressive deteriorated road surface conditions might accelerate the fatigue damage accumulations. Micro-cracks in structural details might be initiated. An effective structural modeling scheme and a reasonable fatigue damage accumulation rule are essential for stress range acquisitions and fatigue life estimation. The present research targets at the development of a fatigue life and reliability prediction methodology for existing steel bridges under real wind and traffic environment with the capability of including multiple random parameters and variables in bridges' life cycle.
Firstly, the dynamic system is further investigated to acquire more accuracy stresses for fatigue life estimations for short and long span bridges. For short span bridges, the random effects of vehicle speed and road roughness condition are included in the limit state function, and fatigue reliability of the structural details is attained. For long-span bridges, a multiple scale modeling and simulation scheme based on the EOMM method is presented to obtain the stress range history of structural details, while the calculation cost and accuracy are saved. Secondly, a progressive fatigue reliability assessment approach based on a nonlinear continuous fatigue damage model is presented. At each block of stress cycles, types and numbers of passing vehicles are recorded to calculate the road surface's progressive deterioration and nonlinear cumulative fatigue damage, and the random road profiles are generated. Thirdly, this study discussed the fatigue design of short and long span bridges based on the dynamic analysis on the vehicle-bridge or vehicle-bridge-wind system. For short span bridges, a reliability-based dynamic amplification factor on revised equivalent stress ranges (DAFS) is proposed. For long span bridges, a comprehensive framework for fatigue reliability analysis under combined dynamic loads from vehicles and winds is presented. The superposed dynamic stress ranges cannot be ignored for fatigue reliability assessment of long-span bridges, although the stresses from either the vehicle loads or wind loads may not be able to induce serious fatigue issues alone.

The Autism News | English By Kentnews A martial arts expert who has been in a long battle against cancer has become the first woman in the UK to become a master in the tsuyoi ryu form of karate. And as if that wasn't enough, Sandra Beale has taken on a myriad of other responsibilities. When she was aged just nine, she found a tennis ball sized lump under her arm which eventually led to having two ribs removed, long stays in hospital, and a doctor telling her parents she only had a 50-50 chance of pulling through

Corporate Sustainability Reporting: Opportunities and Challenges in a Post-Transition Country
The aim of our study was to research corporate sustainability reporting. To this end, we developed a model of indicators and used it to examine corporate websites and annual/sustainability reports published on the web. Our study found that Slovenian corporate sustainability reporting is still in an initial stage, considering that, for the most part, companies fail to provide a significant share of comprehensive information. This is particularly obvious in the environmental part of sustainability reporting. A comparison of environmental and social aspects of reporting shows that companies tend to report social information more comprehensively.

Mitnick says his hacking habit began at 13 with a ham radio and from that he graduated to "phone phreaking" - hacking into the phone system.
"That's where I got hooked on exploiting technology for the adventure, the thrill, the intrigue," he said. "I was figuring out how the phone company operated."
He learned how to make free phone calls and do pranks, such as switch a friend's home phone service to a pay phone setting.
Then he moved on to computers, creating a program in school for fun that would steal passwords, breaking into computers to learn how phone networks operate and downloading proprietary software code to see how it works.
He said he didn't steal or make any money, or destroy any computers or networks.
"At the time, I didn't believe I was going to get caught," he said. "When they started to enact federal laws against computer hacking I continued in that mindset."
Mitnick says he is now ready to go to work, this time in a position where he will be helping protect companies against the kind of hacking he used to do.

Report: Miley Cyrus is a Homewrecker!
Is Miley Cyrus a low-down, dirty boyfriend-stealer?
According to Laura Griffin, she is.
Griffin, the former girlfriend of Aussie hunk Liam Hemsworth, takes to the new issue of the Australian edition of Woman's Day to tell the world about the world of heartache that she's experiencing due to the Hannah Montana star's homewrecking ways.
As 19-year-old Griffin explains it, she and Hemsworth first met in school when she was in Year 8, and the Hemsworth family relocated from Melbourne to Phillip Island.
"He was the new boy at school and all the girls liked him," smiles Laura. "He was popular, a bit of a joker and made me laugh."
Within a year, Griffin continues, she and Hemsworth's relationship blossomed into true love.
"We became inseparable," Griffin—who dated Liam for five years—recalls. "He tried to teach me to surf, we watched movies, and went shopping. Liam became more than a boyfriend, he was my best friend."
That all changed this year, when Hemsworth ran off to Tybee Island, Georgia, to film the movie The Last Song with Miley. Soon, Hemsworth called it off with Griffin, and after finding out that Liam had become Cyrus' love interest off-screen as well as on, she had a pretty good idea about why her former "inseparable" boyfriend had ditched her.
"He was my boyfriend and my best friend," Griffin says. "There is no other reason why we would have broken up."
Adding insult to loneliness, Griffin says that Cyrus began indirectly taunting her by posting messages on her Twitter such as "Against all odds I fell in love" and "I think I'll just sit around and eat sushi and watch Liar Liar with Liam."
Now, according to Griffin, she's experiencing "total, utter regret" and suffers from "depression of some sort."
Let us know in the comments section: Do you think Miley is really a boyfriend-stealer?

Yes, it happened again. Yes, both the Right, and the Left are going to use it to bicker over Gun Control, or lack thereof. The Right is going to say that if a teacher had been armed, he/she could have stopped it. The Left will say that NO ONE aside from military, and police needs guns. There's an underlying problem here though, and it's a big on. But first... what happened this time?
"The school week at a northern Nevada middle school got off to a tragic start Monday when a student opened fire outside the school's entrance. NBC's Joe Fryer reports."
That was the verbal headline. The reason why? No one is quite sure yet. A 12 year old male, who's name has not yet been made widely known, opened fire on a teacher, and two students. Well, more than that, but that's all he actually hit. There is this little tidbit though;
"Although authorities have not specified a motive for the attack, a student told the Reno Gazette-Journal that the suspected gunman said he had been teased.
"I heard him saying, 'Why you people making fun of me, why you laughing at me," student Michelle Hernandez told the newspaper."
Ahh... It's probably a classic. Back to gun control. There's a few good reasons that CIVILIANS should own guns, and a few reasons they shouldn't, let's have a look at'em.
The Good
- Self-defense. We don't live in a perfect world, and guns can be a hell of a deterent AGAINST crime. As well as against any outside force that gets the balls to invade the U.S.
- People hunt, it's almost a God given right. It's regulated, and legal, and Rednecks all over will riot if it's taken away from them anyways.
- There's always the possibility that the Govt will turn against it's people, although I for one don't believe the current administration is a threat.
The Bad
- There will always be *******s, idiots, and insane people out there with access to guns. This will lead to lives lost without good reason.
- The NRA. I'm not saying that everyone in it is a moron, but it would seem it's leadership has no sense of morality. That's a group of people hell-bent on violence, and stupidity.
- This is almost the same as the first.. But there's always a chance kids will get a hold of their parents weapons, and bad things happen. Bottom line is that if you can't handle owning, and keeping track of a gun, you don't need one.
You guys n' girls can deduce what you want from all that, but my opinion is that we need a better way of enforcing the laws we already have, maybe some stricter measures, and we need to add a few new ones. Like an assault weapons ban? You bet your ass I'm for that. Yes, the Govt has bigger, faster guns that way, but a good rifleman is better than any moron with an M-16. On the other hand, if we could institute better regulations on it... like...
- Not having any kids.
- Having a stainless steel safe for it..
- Passing a full Mental Health test...
Then I guess there's no reason why a few people can't own them. Although, those three ideas up there might be good for anyone wanting a gun.
What do you guys think? What should be done, and what shouldn't be done?

Division of Diversity continues its work for social justice, meaningful discussion
Author Eric Schlosser discusses his book
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) Division of Diversity, Access and Equity (DDAE) continues to provide initiatives supporting cultural social justice and inclusion. As part of these initiatives, DDAE brings relevant voices to UMKC by sponsoring guest lecturers who are renowned in the fields.
Eric Schlosser - an investigative journalist and author - will discuss his book, "Fast Food Nation" at the fifth annual Social Justice Book and Lecture Program at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 1 at the UMKC Pierson Auditorium, 5100 Holmes, Kansas City, Mo., 64110. A book signing will follow the lecture. The event is free and open to the public. Parking at the University Center and Cherry Street Terrace is free during this event.
"This lecture is about more than fast food - it's about low income-families, who have few choices and the limited, unhealthy food options available to them," said Kristi Ryujin, Assistant Vice Chancellor, Diversity Initiatives. "It also is about the unsafe, hazardous conditions to which food workers are exposed and the issue of fast food being marketed to the underprivileged and people of color."
"Fast Food Nation" - a two-year New York Times bestseller - tells the story of America and the world's infatuation with fast food, from its origins in 1950s southern California to the global triumph of a handful of burger and fried chicken chains.
In 1998, Schlosser's two-part article on the subject in Rolling Stone generated more mail than any other item the magazine had run to date. He also has contributed to The New Yorker and has been a correspondent for the Atlantic Monthly since 1996. Schlosser won a National Magazine Award for "Reefer Madness" and "Marijuana and the Law" and has received a Sidney Hillman Foundation Award for Reporting. His work has been nominated for several other National Magazine Awards and for the Loeb Award for business journalism.
This event is sponsored by BlueCross Blue Shield of Kansas City, Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City and UMKC Division of Diversity, Access and Equity.
About the Division of Diversity, Access and Equity
As an urban institution, the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) has the opportunity to set new standards in higher education by accomplishing what very few institutions can claim - a diverse faculty, staff and student body reflecting the community that it serves. This can only be accomplished by developing and maintaining inclusive recruitment, hiring, admission and retention programs throughout the organization. The Division of Diversity, Access and Equity, reporting to Office of the Chancellor, combines the efforts of the former Diversity in Action and Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action offices. This merger brought together two major functions which are interdependent and essential to the University reaching its full potential.
About UMKC
The University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC), one of four University of Missouri campuses, is a public university serving more than 15,000 undergraduate, graduate and professional students. UMKC engages with the community and economy based on a four-part mission: life and health sciences; visual and performing arts; urban issues and education; and a vibrant learning and campus life experience.

Billboard Reveals Annual Power 100 List of Music's Most Influential Suits...
The top ten profiles are free, the rest you gots-ta pay fer.
Power can be the ability to influence people with or without resistance. To cause or prevent an action. To act or to not act. In physics, power is the work/time ratio. But the most applicable definition of power that I found for this music industry at this moment—and the one that made me recall my first proper meeting with this year's No. 1 power broker, Lucian Grainge—was from Henry Kissinger.

WOOSTER -- Marquise Blair has fancied himself as a basketball player first since his days as a youth athlete, but after the Wooster junior received a pair of Div. I football scholarship offers last week that evaluation changed in an instant.
Generals coach Doug Haas confirmed that both Purdue and Syracuse have made Blair scholarship offers.
"I don't know if it had crossed Marquise's mind how much potential he has in football," Haas said. "He realizes what an opportunity he has and that maybe he has to shift his dreams."
The 6-foot-3, 185-pound Blair has an impressive combination of speed (4.41 clocking in 40 at team's 2013 training camp) to go with his size.
Haas said scouts have also praised Blair's physical play as a safety and outside linebacker.
"Marquise has what they're looking for as far as measurables and he also has great instincts as a player," said Haas, whose standout had a team-high 75 tackles in 2013 and also caught 35 passes for 724 yards and 11 touchdowns as a wide receiver for a 4-6 team. "Some of the coaches have told us they see him as a nickleback. When he grows he could become a three-down outside linebacker -- someone who's physical enough to match up on the line against the run, but athletic enough drop to play against the pass."
Haas believes putting highlight videos of Blair, along with several other Wooster players on scoutingohio.com helped the Boilermakers and Orangemen initially learn about him.
"I've only coached one other Div. I player and that's Charles Cairnie (2013 graduate), who's at Colgate (an FCS school)," Haas said. "It was a good 48 hours for Wooster football.
"Plans for a new turf field were announced publicly, and Marquise was offered by Syracuse Wednesday and Purdue on Thursday."
Haas admitted that it's a learning process for himself as well as Blair as they talk to college recruiters.
"We're trying to wrap our heads around all the options, plan visits and we expect some more offers," Haas said. "I've talked to Marquise and he's agreed that he has to focus even more on training and schoolwork.
"We're hoping some of our other juniors, like Cam Daugherty (quarterback), Tyson Jackson (lineman) and Mason Woods (fullback-linebacker) wind up getting Div. I or II offers as well."
