Sunday Afternoon Occupy Public Policy – Getting Money Out of Politics Meeting Notes 10/23/11
Occupy Seattle
Issue Meeting: Get the Money Out of Politics
10/23/2011 5pm – 630pm
Notes on concerns and comments of attendees. I apologize for any misrepresentations or mispellings of names etc, due to note taking errors during our discussion.
Organizer: Chris
Number of attendees: about 25
Intro: Chris took a stack list of those wishing to present ideas or concerns to the assembled group about getting the money out of politics. The speaker comments are summarized here:
Pearl: concerned about high price of access to our representatives – such as 5000/plate dinners and the like. (general discussion ensued of general agreement and concern about how to fixthis)
Sam: following up on Pearl's comments, indicated that even though current system isn't exactly quid per quo (money for legislation) yet – at best now there is a perception of corruption of our representatives due to the vast amounts of money needed for campaigns. Something like 20-70% of representative time is spent raising campaign funds. Very concerned about need for clear, full and detailed transparency on who specifically is funding all media material for campaigns.
Jonathan: Agrees on need for full disclosure on who is funding political ads. Wants end or reversal of Citizen's United ruling by SCoTUS. Wants to eliminate creation of corporations that are too big to fail. Wants to separate insurance and banking industries/services. Shared the fact that Nov 5 is a 'Move Your Money Day' http://moveyourmoneyproject.org/
Kee: Not interested in a specific plans of action, more interested in coming up with demands/goals such as full disclosure of campaign/ad funding, and overturn of citizens united.
Val: concerned about power of supreme court of the united states (SCOTUS). Wants term limits, campaign finance reforms and overturn of citizens united. Thinks we need new political party or affinity group that can truly represent us, we need to think about big changes to the system in order effect real change in the country.
Abraham: very interested in creating a state or nationally owned bank, such as they have in North Dakota.
Also wants to offer idea that we are all to blame for the problems in our political system, we need to educate ourselves and take action to regain our democracy and address our true needs. Wants to remind us to think globally when it comes to corporate influence in government – this is a world-wide problem.
Kim: intereseted in ideas of Lawrence Lessig – specifically related to getting money out of politics. Wants all private money out of politics. Believes that the constitution allows for citizens to call for a constitutional convention to propose an amendment which addresses the problem of private money in politics. Believes that we can work on this from the ground up – do not need to convince our current representatives. Believes that we can constrain this convention call in such a way that will allow new representatives, so that we avoid the current corrupted system of representatives.
Breanne: Believes no private money should be required for campaigns. Frustrated with current system, and negative political ads etc, believes that it is one of the main reasons that there is low voter turn out for elections. Wants to have campaigns or elections focus on issues and what
decisions a candidate would make, rather than personal information on candidates.
John: Wants to eliminate legal concept of corporate personhood. Wants to nationalize FIRE (finance , insurance, real estate industries). Would like to require all users of public airwaves to donate airtime for campaigns. Wants to reform the stock and bond markets. Wants publically financed campaigns. Wants to eliminate no-bid government contracts.
Steve: Wants to overturn citizens united decision. Shared fact that 3/4 or more of US citizens nationally felt this was a bad decision. Interested in AZ and other state public matching election funding laws (recently struck down as unconstitutional by SCOTUS). Also interested in state banks. There is a upcoming presentation on the state bank concept
This Wed 10/26/11 7:00pm at Kane Hall on UW campus
Dorothy: Just came from training session on how to decrease corporate influence. Wants to share information about national action on this subject. for January 21 2012. House parties are
being organized for planning actions, especially Nov 9, when guest speaker will be Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
Andrew: Concerned about citizens united decision. Shared example of funding to candidates on
school board election in North Carolina that resulted in election of board members who want to re-segregate schools (end busing etc.). We all need to educate ourselves and not be shy about sharing what we find out about local candidates and their funding sources. Wants to get the money out of politics. Interested in what role congress can play in regulating the actions of the supreme court.
Ann: Shared desire to make local public radio less focused on amount of money candidates are raising and more on the issues, and what candidates stand for. Suggests we should contact our local stations and ask them to change their focus.
Craig: Want to remind folks that end result of our efforts will likely be new or reformed laaws. Need to garner support and help from people, media. Would like to see us engage in actions that make our anger and frustration more visible to the populace. Offers example of 'Target: Seattle' action in fight against nuclear arms race. Got media interested in covering because of visual impact of expressed dangers. Would like to see a week long event in seattle focused on corporate influence , mock trial or mock constitutional convention that helped educate citizens
and gain media coverage. Craig is involved with Wash Public Campaigns
Jim: Concerned about Citizens UNited decision. If can't get overturned, then wants to make corporations responsible for all actions as persons, not just get rights of personhood. Wants to see corporations held accountable for actions hurting people and communities.
Tom: Brought up idea that we can affect corporations and possibly make them accountable by
using heir weak point of neding a state charter to operate in each state. Might be able to revoke their charter if they do not address issues that we have.
All: agreed to start working group, and meet Sundays at 3pm until further notice.
PS: Thanks for taking notes, Kim

CNN Breaking News
4 December 2013
Note: After James and Doug Kenison of MedCity Hovercraft in Rochester, Minnesota used their Neoteric hovercraft to rescue three exhausted deer, stranded for days on Albert Lea Lake, their video of the rescue quickly went viral.
James Kenison reports, "Our Neoteric craft performed very well. Its reverse thrusters gave us the ability to quickly maneuver on the slippery ice. Without them the rescue would have taken longer just to get the craft in the right position. And the hovercraft was the best option, due to the ice being thin in some places."
The CNN newscasters quickly realized this: "Hovercraft are kind of a genius idea here … if you go out there with a snowmobile, you're in trouble – it doesn't hover, it's just a craft."

Detailed Description:
This project will evaluate the effect of a single sub-anesthetic dose of ketamine on the time to first cocaine use and abstinence rates in 60 treatment-seeking cocaine-dependent individuals receiving mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) therapy, using a 5 week combined laboratory-inpatient and outpatient double-blind, randomized, controlled trial.
|Cocaine Dependence
|Drug: Ketamine Drug: Midazolam
|Phase 1 Phase 2
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment

Drug Information available for: Ketamine hydrochloride Ketamine Midazolam maleate Midazolam hydrochlorideU.S. FDA Resources
Further study details as provided by New York State Psychiatric Institute:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Time to first cocaine use [ Time Frame: Over the four week period following discharge from the inpatient unit at Day 5 ]During phase 2, patients will be assessed twice weekly by TLFB and urine toxicology for cocaine use. The day of first use will determine the length of time that transpired from discharge to the first lapse onto cocaine.
- Abstinence [ Time Frame: Abstinence will be assessed over 4 weeks starting at the last day of week 1 and continuing through the end of study at the last day of week 5 ]Abstinence is defined as 2 or greater weeks of no cocaine use, as ascertained by the TLFB and urine toxicology.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Stress and cue reactivity [ Time Frame: This will be assessed over the five week course of the trial; on days 1 and 5, on the last day of week 2, and on the last day of week 5 ]Self-assessments as well as endocrine, physiological, and other assessments are used to ascertain stress and cue reactivity as well as craving at the above-mentioned time-points as well as, in some cases, continuously over the five week period of the trial.
- Mindfulness [ Time Frame: This will be assessed over the five week course of the trial; on days 1 and 5, on the last day of week 2, and on the last day of week 5 ]The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire will be administered at various points throughout the study in order to ascertain the effect of the intervention on mindfulness as compared to the control.

|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Ketamine
0.5 mg/kg of ketamine IV over 40 minutes
Drug: Ketamine
0.5 mg/kg IV over 40 minutes
Other Name: ketamine 0.5 mg/kg
Active Comparator: midazolam
0.025 mg/kg IV over 40 minutes
Drug: Midazolam
0.025 mg/kg IV over 40 minutes
Other Name: midazolam 0.025 mg/kg
Detailed Description:
he study will begin with an inpatient phase (phase 1) of 5 days, during which abstinence is achieved, followed by a 4 week outpatient phase (phase 2). A single infusion of ketamine or midazolam will occur on day 3 of Phase 1. In addition to measures of mindfulness and impulsivity, stress sensitivity tests are incorporated into the design in order to elucidate mechanisms of action. The study hypotheses are:
- ketamine and MBRP will significantly increase the time to first use compared to placebo and MBRP in cocaine-dependent individuals.
- ketamine and MBRP is significantly more likely to lead to abstinence from cocaine (no use over one week) as compared to placebo and MBRP.
- ketamine and MBRP will significantly reduce subjective, endocrine, and physiological responses to stress (including cue exposure) as compared to placebo and MBRP.
- ketamine and MBRP will significantly increase mindfulness, as assessed by the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), as compared to placebo and MBRP.

U.S. ambassador to Canada visits WWU
United States Ambassador to Canada David Jacobson visited the Center for Canadian-American Studies at Western Washington University on Thursday, June 9, as part of a West Coast tour. Ambassador Jacobson spoke to a group of 40 WWU students and faculty and to a group of Bellingham community leaders that included Mayor Dan Pike. Jacobson also was briefed about recent policy studies conducted by the Border Policy Research Institute dealing with the Canada-U.S. border.
During his presentation, Jacobson highlighted the special relationship between the United States and Canada and noted the shared set of values held in common by both countries. He said that the two nations should together seek common ways to further project those values around the world. He discussed issues relating to the border and the efforts underway by the Obama Administration and the Government of Canada to work together through the newly created "Beyond the Border Working Group" to enhance cooperative security efforts while streamlining the flow of legitimate travelers and goods moving between the two countries. The ambassador also emphasized the importance of the strong economic ties between the two nations and the massive trade between Washington and Canada. He noted that Americans share a special affinity for Canada, citing annual surveys showing that American citizens routinely ranked Canada as the foreign country held in the highest regard.
The ambassador's remarks were followed by a lively question and answer session with students and professors. This was not the first visit by a high level diplomat to the Center for Canadian-American Studies on the Western campus, noted Director Don Alper. The center, located in Canada House, played host to Canadian ambassadors in 1980 and 2001, as well as numerous consuls general over the years. Thursday's visit by the American ambassador was particularly special, Alper said, because it marks the first time ever that the U.S. Ambassador to Canada has paid Western a visit.
More photos of the event are available online from the US Embassy Ottawa.

A few weeks back, you may recall the first bit of news about David Goyer working on a new version of The Invisible Man for Universal. Well, recently he chatted with MTV's Movies Blog and revealed that either that or X-Men Origins: Magneto will be the next project he's working on.
Personally I'm hoping for the new Invisible Man, obviously, even if the plot smells very similar to 1942's Invisible Agent; "My take is kind of an extrapolation." Goyer told the blog. "It actually deals with a nephew of the first character. It's got some of the characters from the H.G. Wells book, but it's kind of a continuation. It involves Scotland Yard getting their hands on the current Invisible Man and basically saying, 'Wow, you'd be a really good secret agent to send into Imperial Russia right now,'"
As long as he keeps the comedy out of it, hopefully that'll be the only similarity this new film has to Agent. Goyer promises that the film will be very steam punk, and that he'll utilize technology to its fullest to create the effect of invisibility. "We do a lot of crazy things in it that are sort of far beyond what anyone's done with it yet." I guess we'll have to wait and see!

Pinnacle IRA is a one-of-a-kind, professionally-managed IRA with no minimums, featuring only institutionally priced funds that are traded in an omnibus setting.
Pittsburgh, PA and La Jolla, CA (PRWEB) June 18, 2013
Inspira and GuidedChoiceTM today announced the release of Pinnacle IRA powered by GuidedChoice. The new managed IRA service provides account holders with high quality, low cost investments that will be professionally managed by GuidedChoice, an industry leader in investment advice, managed account services, and strategic solutions for retirement plans and individuals.
"As defined contribution plans such as 401(k)s have grown to become the primary retirement vehicle for many Americans, the industry has responded with a vast array of investment, advice and managed account solutions to help people make the most of them. But there is a gap for investors who leave their employer's retirement plan – or who don't have access to one in the first place," said David Bernard, Chief Client Officer for GuidedChoice.
In response to this service void, Inspira and GuidedChoice created Pinnacle IRA. Inspira handles the record keeping, while Pinnacle IRA investments are managed by GuidedChoice through the same advice platform that powers the company's employer-sponsored retirement plan services. Pinnacle IRA's custodian is Benefit Trust Company.
Through the partnership, Pinnacle IRA accountholders get the benefit of being invested in low-cost, institutionally priced mutual funds and ETFs, with fees that are less than half of many products and services currently in the market.
"This offering is not just about lower costs," said Lowell Smith, President of Inspira. "Pinnacle IRA is a one-of-a-kind, professionally-managed IRA with no minimums, featuring only institutionally priced funds that are traded in an omnibus, or pooled, setting. It's an exciting new product."
Pinnacle IRA is available to all investors because it has no account minimums, making it an affordable option for individuals who don't meet the high asset threshold requirements of most advisors, brokers or financial institutions, but who still want a professionally managed account. Individuals can easily open and access their new IRA through the PinnacleIRA.com portal.
Financial professionals, institutions and record keepers looking to offer their clients of all sizes a managed account IRA that is professionally managed at institutional pricing will also find this product attractive. Custom private labeling is available for qualified firms.
For more information, please contact Inspira at 1-877-472-1872.

Join us on our podcast each weekday for an interesting story, well told, from Charisma News. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.
American patriotism shone brightly during last weekend's conference, The Awakening 2013, an annual event staged by the Freedom Federation. Compelling speeches and a call to return to biblical principles from several nationally influential figures were the order of the day.
Speakers such as 2012 presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, and authors Pamela Geller and Frank Gaffney, among many others, fired up the audience with inspirational speeches, compelling the nation to return to its godly roots and calling on citizens to "fight for the soul of America."
Following are a few noteworthy quotations from the conference:
"I don't care if you worship a stone; just don't stone me with it." —Pamela Geller, author and president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative
"We are witnessing in Europe now what Hitler could not accomplish years ago." —Pamela Geller
"We're not going to be able to stop abortion until each person looks at children as a blessing from God." —Jim Bob Duggar, former member of the Arkansas House of Representatives and star, along with his wife, Michelle, of the Discovery Health and TLC television series 19 Kids and Counting
"Don't question in the darkness what God has shown you in the light." —Michelle Duggar
"Sharia is the problem. It's not radical—it's crazy." —Frank Gaffney, author and founder and president of the Center for Security Policy
"Our first and second amendments are our last chances to survive." —Jonathan Matusitz, author and associate professor of communication at the University of Central Florida
"In the process of living the American dream, we are losing it." —Jan Morgan, Associated Press award-winning veteran investigative journalist and media personality
"We need to be trained and prepared for whatever comes our way, because you ain't seen nothing yet." —Jan Morgan
"We need to start talking about the victims of Islam. That's how you defeat it." —William Murray, chairman of the Religious Freedom Coalition
"Every generation deals with totalitarianism and evil. In our generation right now, it's Islam jihad."—Michele Bachmann
"The church doesn't shape our values anymore, and that's killing us as a nation." —Retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, executive vice president of the Family Research Council
"There is no single institution that affects American values more than the church." —Dr. Carlos Campo, president of Regent University

ANKARA (Mar. 11)
A new agreement on a mutual program of cooperation between the two bodies was signed here today by Zeev Levine, international relations director for Histadrut, the Israel Federation of Labor, and Seyfi Demirsoy, leader of "Turk-Is, " the Turkish Confederation of Labor Unions.
Under the pact, Eistadrut will conduct, in 1963, a special four-to-six-week seminar for between 15 and 20 labor leaders from this country. Histadrut will also invite a delegation of Turkish labor leaders for a 10-day visit to Israel. Both sides agreed to cooperate closely in various international bodies, and to promote tourism for workers in each of the countries. Histadrut expects to direct 500 Israeli workers next summer as tourists in Turkey.
Mr. Levine was received formally while on his visit to Turkey by Minister of Labor Bulent Ecevit and other top governmental officials, as well as by "Turk-Is" leaders at Istanbul.

USDA Secretary Johanns Unveils 2007 Farm Bill Proposals
WASHINGTON -- Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns yesterday unveiled the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2007 farm bill proposals, which feature more than 65 items that correspond to the 2002 farm bill titles, with additional special focus areas, including specialty crops, beginning farmers and ranchers, and socially disadvantaged producers.
WASHINGTON -- Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns yesterday unveiled the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2007 farm bill proposals, which feature more than 65 items that correspond to the 2002 farm bill titles, with additional special focus areas, including specialty crops, beginning farmers and ranchers, and socially disadvantaged producers.
"We listened closely to producers and stakeholders all across the country and took a reform-minded and fiscally responsible approach to making farm policy more equitable, predictable, and protected from challenge," said Johanns. "We started with the 2002 farm bill and propose to improve it by bolstering support for emerging priorities and focusing on a market-oriented approach."
USDA began preparations for the 2007 farm bill in 2005 by conducting 52 Farm Bill Forums across the country. More than 4,000 comments were recorded or collected during forums and via electronic and standard mail.
These comments are summarized in 41 theme papers. USDA economists, led by Dr. Keith Collins, studied the comments and authored five analysis papers.
The new round of proposals -- each of which provides information as to why a change is needed, the recommended solution, and relevant background information about the affected program or policy -- represents the final phase of a nearly two-year process.
Cal Dooley, president and c.e.o. of the Washington, D.C.-based Grocery Manufacturers/Food Products Association called the farm bill proposals "a positive step toward a more market-oriented farm program. While not the giant stride we were hoping for, it is clearly a step in the right direction."
Dooley further noted that the bill's proposals would "help reduce market-distorting trade subsidies and serve to demonstrate the administration's commitment to advocating agricultural policies that can hopefully lead to a successful completion of the Doha round of trade talks."
Highlights of the proposals include (funding reflects 10-year totals):
-- Increasing conservation funding by $7.8 billion, simplifying and consolidating conservation programs, and creating a new Environmental Quality Incentives Program and a Regional Water Enhancement Program.
-- Providing $1.6 billion in new funding for renewable energy research, development, and production targeting cellulosic ethanol, which will support $2.1 billion in guaranteed loans for cellulosic projects and include $500 million for a bioenergy and bio-based product research initiative.
-- Targeting nearly $5 billion in funding to support specialty crop producers by increasing nutrition in food assistance programs, including school meals, through the purchase of fruits and vegetables, funding specialty crop research, fighting trade barriers, and expanding export markets.
-- Providing $250 million to increase direct payments for beginning farmers and ranchers, reserving a percentage of conservation funds and providing more loan flexibility for down-payment, land-purchasing, and farm-operating loans.
-- Supporting socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers by reserving a percentage of conservation assistance funds and providing more access to loans for down payments, land purchasing, and farm operating.
-- Strengthening disaster relief by establishing a revenue-based counter-cyclical program, providing gap coverage in crop insurance, linking crop insurance participation to farm program participation, and creating a new emergency landscape restoration program.
-- Simplifying and consolidating rural development programs while providing $1.6 billion in loans to rehabilitate all current Rural Critical Access Hospitals, and $500 million in grants and loans for rural communities to decrease the backlog of rural infrastructure projects.
-- Dedicating nearly $400 million to trade efforts to expand exports, fight trade barriers, and increase involvement in world trade standard-setting bodies.
-- Simplifying, modernizing, and renaming the Food Stamp Program to improve access for the working poor, better meet the needs of recipients and states, and strengthen program integrity.

Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Wang Shi-cheng (王世堅) yesterday said he would serve a prison term to highlight the absurdity of a verdict against him. Wang on Friday was sentenced to 50 days in prison -- which he has the option to convert into a fine -- for insulting two Taipei police officers. In May, two police asked a couple of shop owners to remove products displayed outside their stores on sidewalks and roads, but Wang appeared and asked the police to halt their action, claiming they were targeting the shop owners because they had not been paid bribes. In response, the two officers filed a lawsuit accusing Wang of interfering with their public functions. Wang yesterday said that as an elected representative he was supposed to deal with complaints from his supporters and that he had not broken any law. Wang said he would not appeal the ruling.

T.J. Lavin continues to make progress following his crash during dirt qualifying at the Dew Tour Championships in Las Vegas, Nev. on Oct. 14.
Although Lavin remains hospitalized at University Medical Center in Las Vegas, the 33-year-old Las Vegas native is talkative, able to retrieve memories, and according to Lavin's mother Barbara, almost walking without help. "His memory is coming back with his sense of humor in tact," she added.
Fellow BMX pro Francisco "Coco" Zurita visited Lavin in the hospital earlier this week and remarked on Lavin's progress. "He is doing awesome. Talking a lot, bringing up old memories and joking around too," said Zurita, adding, "I am so stoked to see him make such a strong recovery."
Lavin, who crashed at the Dew Tour Championships on Oct. 14, suffered bleeding on the brain, a broken wrist and an orbital fracture. Lavin remained in a medically induced coma for close to a week, but has made significant progress in his recovery since emerging from the coma.
Doctors expect Lavin to make a full recovery.
Lavin rose to fame in the BMX dirt scene in the early years of the X Games. He earned a silver medal in 1996 and gold medals in 1997 and 1999. In the years since, Lavin has remained an aggressive competitor on the Dew Tour Circuit while branching out as a TV host for 10 seasons of MTV's "Real World/Road Rules Challenge." The Dew Tour Championships was to be Lavin's last contest as a professional before retiring.

Is it possible to force the user to select his country before he enters the store?
I think about something like that: http://www.thomann.de/
If he selects his country, it should be possible to save this in the cookie/session, and show him the correct price:
inclusive tax => in EU
exclusive tax=> not in the EU
best way will be to select the language at the same time (if there is i18n)
England (in EU) => Language exists: take english / TAX: with taxes
Germany (in EU) => Language exists: take german / TAX: with taxes
SPAIN (in EU) => Language "spanish" does not exist: take standard language (e.g. english) / TAX: with taxes
Argentina ( not in EU) => Language "spanish" does not exist: take standard language (e.g. english) / TAX: without taxes
USA ( not in EU) => Language exists: english / TAX: without taxes
is it possible?
Chears! I like your work!
PS: sorry for my english

Comment #2drupalok CreditAttribution: drupalok commented
+1 for this
Comment #3longwave CreditAttribution: longwave commented
This likely won't be a feature of uc_vat itself, as this could be useful to other users - preselecting the country or determining it via geolocation in some way may be helpful for all stores. Feel free to discuss possible implementations here, however!
Comment #4lpalgarvio CreditAttribution: lpalgarvio commented
dumping my idea^^
to avoid the problem of pre-selecting the first VAT, which is not always the intended VAT, i'd recommend this:
- optional integration with a Multiprice module (there's 4 or 5 of those), a Geo module (Location for example) or a Language module (selected language on l18n, harder to do)
- read the main VATs associated with the user (through defined shipping and billing addresses) from previous purchases
some multi-price / multi-currency and l18n modules:
- http://drupal.org/project/uc_multiprice
- http://drupal.org/project/multicurrency
- http://drupal.org/project/uc_cck_currency
- http://drupal.org/project/uc_multiple_currency (abandoned)
more here - http://drupal.org/node/855296#comment-3462982
some aren't published and i fetched them from ubercart forums
Comment #5Bartezz CreditAttribution: Bartezz commented
I request my users to enter certain details via profile.module.
Then via a custom module (too specific to share) I do a hook_user and set the country to be used in uc_multiprice from the profile details upon logging in.
(My site requires users to login to use the shop as it is a wholesale webshop and not for retail customers)
* Implementation of hook_user().
function custommodule_user($op, &$edit, &$account, $category = NULL) {
if ($op == 'login') {
global $user;
The reason I'm not using uc_multiprice methods of country determination are mentioned here; http://drupal.org/node/913788
Haven't looked into showing the price including VAT yet based on the users country yet... will post back if I find a solution to that.
Comment #6lpalgarvio CreditAttribution: lpalgarvio commented

Comment #7Bartezz CreditAttribution: Bartezz commented
This issue came up again and I might have another solution. As I wrote before my store requires customers to log in but if this is not the case for you maybe you could create a small custom module.
With this module you could do a color/lightbox like page overlay requiring a customer to select their country before they can do anything on the page. You could inject this lightbox overlay when the session var country_id is missing. It's a similar solution to websites promoting alcohol where you have to select your date of birth before you can enter the site / view the pages.
Maybe this helps in such a setup;

Keeping Up With The Kardashians S07/E05 Recap06/17/2012
Episode 5 of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" was quite hilarious, so I decided to compile a Top 10 list of this week's most interesting moments:
1. Kris Jenner runs into her old flame (the one who caused her to end her last marriage) from 25 years ago at a tennis lesson. After giving her a great big hug, her old flame tells her that he doesn't want to let go of her. Bruce just about blew a fuse after finding out about her encounter.
2. The old flame sends an e-mail to Kris that she actually responds to. We learn that his secret nickname for her was "Snooka." After the show, Khloe Kardashian immediately tweeted that she really wanted to BARF over the whole "Snooka" nickname.
3. Kylie and Kendall Jenner are up to their old ways of horsing around the house, and end up spilling spaghetti sauce all over the fancy carpet. In a humorous scene, they visit a carpet cleaning store to rent a super steam cleaner. The machine ends up tearing away a piece of the carpet.
4. Kourtney Kardashian suggests that Scott Disick should hang out with Kim, and the duo ends up having way too much fun together. They go out to dinner, out to the clubs, and even play a fun game of chat roulette on the computer. In case you are not familiar with this concept, they basically get connected with random people on video cam and say funny things back and forth. When they get bored, they can just click "next" and talk to other random people.
5. Kim Kardashian tells Scott and his friend Raul that if she is 40 and not pregnant, she will get artificially inseminated. She said that it would feel like she was Mary and her baby would be like Jesus.
6. Kourtney Kardashian tells Kim that she wants her husband back home, and that the two of them can no longer go out. After all, Scott needs to stay home with his pregnant wife. It is another case of Kourtney not being able to make up her mind, since she suggested that Kim and Scott start hanging out in the first place.
7. Kris dressed up in a fancy, sparkly suit and tells her family that she needs to run a few errands. Her outfit is way too fancy for simply running errands. As she is about to leave, Kylie and Kendall tell her about the carpet incident. She does not even get mad, and tells them that she expected worse.
8. Kim Kardashian suspects that her mother is up to no good and wants to meet up with her old flame. There is no way that Kris would not get mad about the carpet incident. Kim tells Rob that their mother is acting very suspiciously.
9. Kim and Rob decide to follow Kris to find out where she is really going. They end up following the wrong car, and lose her.
10. Preview of the next episode shows some interesting times in the Dominican Republic. Kourtney causes herself, Scott, and Kim to miss their flight. Scott and have trouble resolving their differences.

Best cleanser I've tried so far!I used to be a loyal Noxzema user, but on a whim one day decided to try something new. I am very happy I did! Aveeno cleanser feels smooth and leaves me feeling refreshed. It doesn't just remove dirt and makeup, it makes me feel more confident in my own skin. I highly recommend giving it a try if you haven't already! — 7 years, 9 months agosookie83 | 3 reviews
Used twice now...I am on my second bottle ever of this cleanser, has a pleasant scent, and is a lovely formula (literally - the gel glistens, haha) but I just wish it would foam up more, it does clean well though. And I have very few break outs when I am using this. I use this right now with Clinique's Dramatically different lotion and Super City Block 40. I have great skin everyday! (I believe in combining cheape...read morer brands with more expensive brands if it works for you....especially with cleansers, the best cleansers I have ever used were all below $7, including this one! — 7 years, 3 months agomonalisastyle | 97 reviews

Great CleanserI recently switched from a different face cleanser and I love this one! It cleans my skin completely and leaves it soft and it doesn't feel tight or dry and has a pleasant smell. My skin feels clean and glowy after I wash with it. — 8 years agoMoosh29 | 48 reviews
This dang skin of mine....I really want to love this. I do. Anything in a foam pump is slightly deceiving. Have you ever bought a pampered chef soap pump where all you do is put a couple squirts of soap then fill the rest with water? Presto--now you have foam. That's what this is. So....I feel a little ripped off. To each his own. Pros: It does feel clean without drying like soap products. Cons: My face doesn't look positively radiant. Would I buy it again....ehhhh......maybe. — 8 years, 2 months agomeobaaklini | 10 reviews
what's the hype?There's been a lot of hype about aveeno and their positively line. I'm dry combo with oily t-zones. I decide to ge itt and the few times was good. However, it started to dry me out. It might have given me some brightening effects but it didn't really do much for much since my skin feels tighten and dry after I use it. =( — 8 years, 3 months agommmhmms | 10 reviews
great productI just started using this cleanser after reading the reviews and found that it works very well. I wanted a cleanser that would take off my makeup but not strip my skin and this product really does the job. It takes a couple of pumps but the formula is creamy and gentle to my skin. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a gentle but effective cleanser. — 8 years, 3 months agoCSue | 4 reviews
Love this Cleanser! Leaves skin feeling supple!I read the reviews on this cleanser and thought it couldn't be that great--but it is!! I love the pure and clean smell and the gel/cream consistency of it. It completely takes off all my make up including mascara and leaves my skin feeling soft not tight. I am a one step girl and have to go to bed with a clean fresh face and this product is perfect!! Can't beat the price either. — 8 years, 3 months agokittieboo09 | 3 reviews

It's OKThis is not great for getting makeup off, but I keep it in the shower for morning cleansing. It is non-drying, but nothing really special. I would probably not repurchase as I am really happy with my Basis face wash. — 8 years, 4 months agoLorientawn | 73 reviews
