Phase 1: On-line consultation moderated by the FSN Forum "Hunger, Food and Nutrition Security - towards a pots-2015 development agenda" (19/11/2012 - 10/01/2013)
Summary of key themes emerged from the FSN moderated Post 2015 on-line consultation on food security and nutrition
The online consultation elicited over 270 contributions from a diverse set of respondents. This included views from governments, from NGOs and CSOs, from academia, from professional bodies and interest groups, the private sector and individuals. The geographical scope was wide, drawing from all countries in most of the regions, north and south, developed and developing. Contributions were essentially policy positions and views - views were not systematically supported by a review of the evidence.
Distribution of comments received
The overall feedback provided strong implicit and explicit support for priority emphasis on food security, and nutrition in the next iteration of global development goals. Contributors conveyed both an appreciation of the central importance of good nutrition and healthy diets as a precondition for attaining a range of human development goals, and a sense of unfinished business. While stopping short of detailed policy prescriptions – which contributors stated are probably best developed principally at the national level. Contributors agreed there is a need for ambitious objectives, and a stronger, better-targeted framework to guide and prioritize action to eradicate hunger and all forms of malnutrition. The Zero Hunger Challenge was mentioned as a good example.
A number of key issues were proposed to sharpen the formulation of a next set of hunger and nutrition related goals:
Several contributions emphasized the need to keep pace with the projected rapid growth in global demand for food. Part of the response, it was argued, requires continued increases in productivity – in ways that are sustainable, equitable and resilient. Small-holder agriculture was highlighted repeatedly as being essential for achieving multiple goals in many developing country contexts. In addition many contributors asserted that food availability can be significantly improved through a reduction of the estimated 30% waste of food produced. Some advocated reducing the diversion of limited food resources to bio-fuels and animal feeds.
Several contributors highlighted the importance of ensuring food access: As the affordability of food relates largely to questions of incomes, this has cross-over with other goals and the wider anti-poverty agenda, such as the desire for decent jobs. Boosting smallholder and rural incomes, and establishing a social protection floors, including food assistance, with expanded access to safety nets was a priority in many contributions. Contributors also differed on food price policy, with some contributors advocating market liberalization, and others calling for state interventions in food markets.
Concerning national policy issues, several contributions called for an intermediate goal calling for political commitment to hunger reduction by all states. Strengthening land tenure rights especially for women – based on the respective voluntary guidelines was seen by many contributors as an essential objective. A second element was the level budgetary commitment to food security and nutrition – by all countries not just donors.
Records of the contributions received during the online consultation
The lessons learnt are that for potential solutions to the food crisis to be realised, flagrant violations of all human rights, including the rights to food must be recognised and prevented, and that participation of all stakeholders – including vulnerable women, youth, indigenous people and other marginalised population groups – in the formulation, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of all development planning and programmes results in fairer access to means of production and better dividends for the poor from national economic growth.
Among the key lessons learnt from all available indices is that in a world that is richer than ever before and that already produces more than enough food to feed the global population, we need political solutions, rather than complicated technical solutions to get rid of hunger. The global food crisis has reinforced two issues about the future of agriculture: the first is that a growing world population, higher incomes and changes in diet are pushing up global demand for food faster than farmers can supply it, and the second is that throwing up new barriers to farm trade on this congested planet is not the path to solution. Getting rid of hunger should therefore not only be a question of finding resources and developing new technologies. It is also a question of challenging structural inequities, imbalances in gender relations and other socio-economic inequalities. The overarching premise of my argument is that an integrative rights-based approach is sine qua non to effectively curtail hunger.
¿Qué funciona mejor?
En nuestro país, la Republica Dominicana fue creado en los años 80 el Instituto Nacional de Estabilización de Precios (INESPRE), con el objetivo de ofrecer a la población productos alimentarios a bajo precio por el hecho que se eliminaba la intermediación y de ese hecho, la población podía tener acceso a alimentos más baratos.
Esa iniciativa que promovía los mercados de productores directamente al consumidor tenía el merito de reducir las perdidas post-cosecha y de evitar la especulación, contribuyó a una reducción significativa del hambre no solo en las ciudades donde la población pudo obtener alimentos a mas bajo costo, si no en los campos donde el pequeño productor obtuvo un incremento de recursos por la venta de sus productos.
Esta experiencia cayó en desgracia fruto de los ataques de la todopoderosa corriente liberal que con el pretexto de que los productos alimenticios también debían obedecer al libre juego de la oferta y la demanda, condenando al hambre una parte importante de la población.
Me parece evidente que en países pobres, el comercio de los alimentos lejos de ser únicamente el resultado de la fría ley de la oferta y la demanda, debe ser considerado como prioritario por los gobiernos afín de brindar una protección a la población mas vulnerable.
En nuestros países, el desafío del hambre debe ser abordado por los gobiernos creando iniciativas para acercar productores y consumidores, aún a costo de contradecir los potentes sectores comerciales.
Como abordar la mal nutrición?
La mal nutrición tiene una importante dimensión cultural y educativa. Es sorprendente que los programas escolares en nuestros países carecen de Nutrición como materia fundamental y de instrucciones y programas sobre una nutrición adecuada.
Proponemos que la nutrición forme parte de los programas escolares al mismo nivel que las otras materias y desde la más temprana edad.
Además de la existencia de una ley sobre la seguridad alimentaria, necesitamos que el derecho a una alimentación suficiente y de calidad sea consagrado en la constitución como un derecho fundamental.
Julio BALBUENA, Ph.D.
We have to create market opportunities and then it will work itslef out.
The key lessons learnt is that not all planned systems can be implemented as planned due to either time lapse or need to change modalities. In our case, disability issues as well tend to hamper inclusive desires and often exclusive nurtured ways have to be combated or changed in order to have acceptable inclusive rights and opportunities targeted to beneficiaries; often what is desired and what is implemented do not have the same tune, the same time, and more or less those who fight to implement are not those who benefit. Changes take time and actors of change hardly are the real beneficiaries on the same being placed up for change.
MDG are a challenge that is taken up by governments only when they are well versed with the strategy and when actually it is tax payer money being used to build up on the goals with that of the development partners. This is when we realized that MDGs in themselves are a cross cutting issues depending each other for successful turnout. Making Hunger, Nutrition, Poverty, Illiteracy, Malnourishment, Meaningful agriculture rely on Education, Health, Agriculture, Social welfare to reach such goals. However, society and communities do not understand well these unless conformed in their specialized spheres of influence and often governmental channels are not looked with a kind face by the beneficiaries on the ground. These very cross cutting issues are for advanced minds and therefore total participation by all is limited to the many being led by a few giving gaps of corruptive elements taking their show on the same stage that otherwise would not have occurred if the beneficiary were literate enough to know their rights and opportunities within established laws and regulations.
A change of supervision in the programs causes changes that sometimes deter progressive elements and discourage continuance thus making initial investment measures redundant where manpower has to relocate in other spheres or work in other countries. Measurably is hard to pin investment returns as were viable enough nor sustainable as many programs have timelines that are not suitable for sustainability measures to be appreciated fully by all stakeholders. Government systems stag much on developing Management Information Systems MIS that often strategize earlier or later changes especially when financially squeezed or under financed. It is very hearty to note that nutrition efforts responses organizationally if civil society is given chance to be actors of change.
These past two years under the SUN movements guidance in Tanzania A partnership of Civil Organisations has been created to combat malnutrition that is called PANITA Partnership for Nutrition in Tanzania; many people now understand the basic core and what needs to be done easily via those they trust most on the ground, Civil Society and its organizations.
Soy un academico y un activista en DIDH comprometido, entre otras cosas, con la consecucion del derecho a la alimentacion para todos. A la vista del fracaso de las politicas experimentadas en los ultimos años para reducir a la mitad la cifra de hambrientos en el mundo conforme a los ODM, a mi juicio se impone cambiar drasticamente de estrategia.
Como jurista les reitero mi convicción de que solamente progresaremos si conseguimos establecer obligaciones más claras para los Estados y las Organizaciones internacionales en la lucha contra el hambre. Las directrices voluntarias no bastan. Pero se pueden aprovechar para la redacción de un (segundo) protocolo facultativo al Pacto Internacional de Derechos Economicos, Sociales y Culturales, enteramente dedicado a la regulación internacional del derecho a la alimentación. En tal protocolo se podrán precisar las obligaciones de los Estados, entre otras, la adopción de politicas publicas efectivas para la erradicacion del hambre tanto en sus respectivos paises como en el mundo, a través de la cooperación internacional para el desarrollo.
Adjunto para su informacion un trabajo de mi autoria sobre esta materia.

Dear Friends,
Government of India is in a process of enacting the National Food Security Act, as part of the efforts to eliminate hunger and food insecurity in India. But the main concern is that Government is strongly following a targeted approach; which means: a particular group of people will not be entitled for food security as per law; but a particular group called Primary Households (who are identified as poor) will be given subsidized food grain; where as another group called General Households will get smaller quantity of food grains at relatively higher prices. And rest will be leftout.
Please see the note attached.

Traditional Knowledge based agriculture and food and nutrition security in the Himalayan Region
This note looks into the traditional knowledge based agriculture and its relevance to enhance food and nutrition security in the Indian Himalayan Region (IHR). Traditional subsistence agriculture has been practiced in the IHR for the centuries, which carried enough food security and nutrition. There were many ethno-botanical plants – cultivated and wild, used as medicinal plants. Local health care system was dependent on this practice. This system was eco-friendly, obtaining high agro-biodiversity. In due course of time, as population increased tremendously and the impact of global changes fell on the traditional knowledge based cultivation of subsistence agriculture, the farmers of the region were more inclined towards cultivation of cash generating crops and largely for the cultivation of paddy and wheat. The entire shift in the cropping pattern and the reducing number of the farmers, which were engaged in the practice of traditional knowledge based agriculture, mostly on the valley regions and mid altitudes, the traditionally cultivated subsistence crops were no more in use in these areas.
Along with cultivation of paddy and wheat, chemical fertilizers were used largely to increase the production of crops. Until several years, it worked satisfactorily and supplied reasonable amount of food to the inhabitants but, this practice could not remain continue because, soil fertility started declined with increase in uses of chemical fertilizers. Meanwhile, the farmers also started cultivating various types of cash generating crops and fruits in different mountain niches. This practice too, did not earn any progress due to lack of market and transportation facilities.
Here, it is inevitable to discuss on the availability of cultivable land, upon which the further discussion will rely. The cultivable land in this region is below 12% of the total geographical area. Further, whatever the cultivable land is available; the landscape is steep and fragile and henceforth, soil erosion is high. The scope of extension of farmland on the mountain niche is too little. To feed the vast number of population, the present cultivable land and agricultural practices are not sufficient. Water resources are abundant but at the same time water availability for all purposes is less thus, water scarcity prevails everywhere.
Under such circumstances, what would be the possible measures to enhance food and nutritional security in this region are discussed below:
1. Agricultural practices are the main stay of the population and any practices other then agriculture and animal husbandry is just impossible because the slope and landscape do not permit to commence them.
2. Traditional knowledge based agriculture of subsistence crops should be retained for the two reasons: The first reason is its nutrition and medicinal values. Here, traditional subsistence crops can be grown in all climatic conditions and zones without requiring enough irrigation facility. Second, it is ecologically fit and obtains high agro-biodiversity.
3. About 75% of the geographical land is covered by vegetation where numbers of medicinal plants grow and many other non-timber forest products are found. These forest based products can be utilized largely for food security.
4. Along with subsistence agriculture, substantial cultivation of cash generating crops should be assured as the agro-climatic conditions in this region is considerably very suitable for cultivating them. This practice will also restore ecology and landscape and will prevent excessive soil erosion.
5. All above that the policy interventions for harnessing these niche based products more smoothly, are off course is the need of hours. Market facilities for selling medicinal plants and non timber forest products should be assured so that the farmers may enjoy the fruits of their hard work. There are instances when several times, farmers stopped cultivating medicinal plants only owing to non availability of market.
6. Irrigation is essential for rice and wheat crops, thus, water resource management, either through traditional wisdom or new technology, may enhance food productivity and thus food security.
With summing up, crop diversity is essential for food security in this region. This may be attended while opting the traditional wisdom as well as the current practices of agriculture.
Prof. Vishwambhar Prasad Sati
Dear FSN Forum participants,
In regard to the first theme of this consultation, there is an interesting document produced by the UN Task Team on the post 2015 development agenda with lessons learned from the overall MDG process. It summarises strengths and weaknesses - and provides useful lessons on how we can go about developing a better development agenda beyond 2015. It highlights the importance of a bottom-up approach, country-level consultations and the need to consider goals, targets and indicators that reflect continental, even country-level differences. It also recognises the importance of local conditions and the need to take into account the complexity of the development process.
These are all good points. The question is: how can these lessons help us do better in formulating the next longer term (25-year?) development agenda? The report does not say much about hunger, food security and nutrition issues. Hence, it would be good to hear from those of you working at country and regional levels on what are some of the specific lessons on this topic.
For example, to what extent has the hunger target under MDG1 been a useful instrument for achieving food and nutrition security objectives in your country or region? Are there other, more effective ways, of ensuring food security and nutrition concerns are brought to the top of the policy agenda? And, beyond policies and programmes, what will it take to make a real difference at household - or even individual - level?
The full MDG lessons learned report can be found here:
Looking forward to a great discussion!
Mark Smulders, FAO/Rome
Please find attached my contribution for discussion. I would like to understand why the challenges of childhood hunger and malnutrition are given less space while policies, especially in the context of growth, are being prioritized.

20th-century international relations
Harry Truman had been an artilleryman in World War I and remembered well the lunar landscape of the Western Front. Yet, while driving from Potsdam to Berlin in July 1945, he exclaimed, "I never saw such destruction!" Almost all the great cities of central and eastern Europe were jagged with ruined buildings, pitted roads, wrecked bridges, and choked waterways. Amid it all were the gaunt survivors, perhaps 45,000,000 of them homeless, including 25,000,000 in those lands—Poland, the Ukraine, and Russia—that had been overrun and scorched two or three times. European communications and transportation reverted to 19th-century levels: 90 percent of French trucks and 82 percent of French locomotives were out of commission, as were over half the rolling stock in Germany and two-thirds of the Balkan railroads. European coal production was at 40 percent of prewar levels, and more than half the continent's merchant marine no longer existed. Some 23 percent of Europe's farmland was out of production by war's end. Of course, people could be fed with American aid while the rubble was cleared away and utilities restored, but World War II cost Europe ... (200 of 143,228 words)Wasteland: the world after 1945

Dull week at the box office
New Delhi, Oct 28 : As many as six films released last Friday, but none of them could excite the viewers at the box office.
"Mickey Virus", which marked the debut of actors Manish Paul and Elli Avram in Bollywood, was the most talked about movie among those that released Oct 25. But the buzz wasn't sufficient to make the audiences catch the film.
"'Mickey Virus' collected Rs.4.75 crore (early estimates) net in its opening weekend," posted trade analyst Taran Adarsh on Twitter.
Directed by Saurabh Varma, the comedy-thriller has been made on a budget of Rs.11 crore, inclusive of publicity and advertising.
Other movies that hit the theatres Friday were Shekhar Ghosh's "Sooper Se Ooper" starring Vir Das, Gulshan Grover, Deepak Dobriyal, Kirti Kulhari and Yashpal Sharma; director Babloo Seshadri's "Wake Up India"; "Ishq Actually", which brought former TV actor Rajeev Khandelwal on the big screen once again; crime drama "Bull Bulbul Bandook"; and "Amdavad Junction" by director Apurv Bajpai.
"None of the movies performed well at the box office. The occupancy was extremely low. Average must have been only 10 percent. Weekdays were even worse. I don't think they will be played next week. The slots will most likely be given to 'Krrish 3'," Puneet Sahay of Spice Cinemas told IANS.
"Krrish 3", which will bring back Hrithik Roshan as a superhero on the big screen again, will release Friday and many are counting on it to do good.

Pokeback Mount'in: Hymn to Dysfunction
By Henry Makow Ph.D. – January 21, 2006
I enjoyed "Pokeback Mount'in."
Director Ang Lee's tale of "forbidden love on the range" evokes the honest feelings and tensions of rural life in the 1960's and 70's. The panoramas of the Canadian Rockies and abstract images of the sheep herd were soothing. The film reminds us that cinematic art could nourish the human spirit instead of poison it.
Unfortunately, under its artistic veneer, "Pokeback Mount'in" advances the Illuminati plan to destroy the nuclear family (also a plank in their Communist Manifesto.)
The movie preaches that homosexuality is normal and natural. In fact, in most cases, homosexuality is a developmental disorder that
the Illuminati
wish to foster in order to destabilize and depopulate society. Throughout history, the enemies of society have used "art," "tolerance," "progress," "cool" and "chic" to trick people into behaving self-destructively.
Effective propaganda mixes Truth with Deception. "Pokeback Mount'in" acknowledges that male homosexual love often has tragic consequences. At the end, Ennis Del Mar is a pathetic figure living alone in a dilapidated trailer. He treasures items of clothing that once belonged to his lover Jack Twist, who died in a suspicious accident.
The Deception lies in the movie's implication that it is normal and natural for men to indulge in homosexual behavior. To begin, these men do not look gay and they engage in masculine activities. "I ain't queer," one says. "Me neither," the other replies.
Then they jump into the sack together.
In reality, men and women find homosexual sex repugnant, a fact the movie tacitly recognizes by mercifully portraying little. (The movie's image of homosexuality is sanitized and made to seem comparable to heterosexuality. In fact, a monogamous long-term relationship like this one is exceptional.)
These two cowboys aren't typical homosexuals and they certainly are not normal heterosexuals.
If you listen closely, you'll hear them both mention they were alienated from their biological fathers at a young age. Ennis' parents died in a car accident while Jack's father shunned him. Homosexual males typically are
trying to compensate
for this loss. (Another cause is sexual abuse in youth. A small minority may have been "born that way" because of a testosterone imbalance during gestation.)
Although Ennis had an attractive and loving fiancee, Alma, we are expected to believe his first emotional embrace was from Jack. The plot's main weakness is its failure to communicate what they have found in each other. Is it just sexual?
Family Betrayal
There is an amazing scene when Alma accidentally witnesses her husband Ennis passionately kissing Jack. She has two daughters and this is her first realization her husband is gay. You can see from her expression that her life is crashing down around her. After tolerating this long-distance romance for a few years, she finally gets a divorce.
Jack's marriage to Lureen is also a sham, also headed for divorce. If the Illuminati (and their feminist lackeys) have their way, fathers will be removed from families' altogether and homosexuality will explode. The ultimate aim is to replace the nuclear family with state-sponsored childbirth as in Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World."
I apologize for repeating myself but some things need to be reiterated. We are soaked in a toxic media bath that trashes the family and considers homosexuality cool. Heterosexuality is much more than opposite-sex attraction. It is about monogamy (marriage) reproduction and child rearing. This is how most of us develop and fulfill ourselves. Obviously, this natural process is essential for the health of society.
Our culture militates against healthy marriage and families. Men no longer learn that the true standard of manhood is supporting and raising a family. Women waste their most fertile years at university learning to fear and compete with men. The media encourages them to be sluts, and experiment with lesbianism.
Homosexuality is a developmental disorder resulting in failure to permanently bond with a member of the opposite sex. This has become a common social affliction as divorce rates soar and marriage and birth rates plummet.
Generally speaking (but not always) homosexuality is characterized by a belief in sex for its own sake and a fixation on sex appeal as the main criterion of personal worth. Haven't we all succumbed in this respect?
Our attitude to children is also homosexual. Children are viewed as a nuisance rather than as an extension of ourselves, organic growth, and a source of infinite love and joy.
Cheating is cheating. In the movie, the two men betray their wives and children in the most egregious fashion. Yet the movie ends on a nostalgia note recalling the glory days having sex on Brokeback Mountain. In our Illuminist-controlled culture, self-indulgence will always trump personal and social responsibility.
The human race is a dysfunctional family too. Our leaders are betraying us in the most egregious fashion. They have literally sold out to the Illuminati, a Luciferian cult that promotes pedophilia, human sacrifice, and every form of
, corruption and organized crime. They stage wars and atrocities, incl. the Sept. 11 massacre, for profit and power. They secretly plot a world police state called "the New World Order."
Is it "intolerant" to refer to this movie as "Pokeback Mount'in" ?
In the Illuminati-controlled USSR, movies were all considered
or indoctrination. This applies to us as well. "Pokeback Mount'in" is being made into a social phenomenon with the potential to influence millions. It had the top box office, won the Golden Globe for Best Picture and is likely to win many Oscars.
One of the Illuminati's techniques is to misname things. Thus "masculinism" is called "feminism," "tyranny" is called "peace." A War of Terror is called a War on Terror. Similarly, we must rename their propaganda to remove its effectiveness.
We have no argument with homosexuals who live responsible lives. Our argument is with the elite social engineers who use homosexuality as a weapon to shred the social fabric and enslave us. We are not going to be fooled by their smears and hypocritical appeals to "tolerance". We will defend ourselves.

Best Universities in London for Dentistry?
University course discussion for dentistry.

Re: Best Universities in London for Dentistry?(Original post by hopingtobeadentist)
I really want to get into Kings. But which one is easier to get in to?
The 'easier' one to get into depends on how you fit their criteria i.e. if you have a high UCAS tariff score and UKCAT 600+ then you have a good chance of getting invited to Barts, whereas if you have both high GCSEs and UKCAT then you have a high chance of getting invited for an interview at KCL.
At this moment in time, I think you should just focus on getting good GCSEs and maybe start doing some voluntary work and/or work experience. There isn't an easier dental school to get into, neither is there a 'best' one.
Getting into dental school isn't just about the grades as you'll sool come to realise whilst reading the stats in here as well as admissions policies of universities, now is the time for you to start working on the voluntary work and extra-curriculcar aspect of the application. During your AS, organise some dental related work experience. Good luck and all the best. -
Re: Best Universities in London for Dentistry?(Original post by hopingtobeadentist)
Yeh that's the thing, I get what you're trying to say but I know Kings look at GCSE's aswell, that's why I want to know from know so I can try extra hard in GCSE's. -
Re: Best Universities in London for Dentistry?(Original post by hopingtobeadentist)
Thanks what are the a2 subjects I can choose for the 3rd?
And no, Maths is not compulsory and neither will you be at an disadvantage if you don't take it.

Deals Increase Penetration of Superstitials
Superstitials are essentially as close to TV commercials as possible on the Internet, allowing advertisers the same degree of creative flexibility as TV commercials but with an interactive element. Bandwidth is a non-issue since they download into the browser cache while the user is idle, preventing the slowdown commonly associated with streaming ads.
"Superstitials open another browser window containing the ad, and it's up to the advertiser to create a compelling enough ad to keep the user from closing the window," explains Hilary Fadner, Director of Corporate Communications for Unicast. "There's a misconception that these ads just appear out of nowhere, but they are designed to appear when the user gets to the correct page." Hence, the media buyer or planner is able to choose exactly where they appear.
The Superstitial is preferred heavily over the Interstitial format, which pop up on the user's screen immediately upon entry, competing with the file size of the page and slowing everything down. According to Fadner, over 250 sites use and accept Superstitials as a standard part of the advertising sold on their sites, and are accepted on at least one of the three top sites in each vertical category. They have been used in over 200 campaigns, and have been seen by a large%age of the Internet population since they appear on many top sites.
The ads are typically created by agencies. Fadner explains that, including design and placement, Superstitial campaigns typically cost anywhere from two to ten times that of standard banner campaigns. This varies widely depending on factors such as where they're running and the amount of interactivity desired. The ads are served through Unicast, which charges a licensing fee to sites that run them. That cost, including server fees, is bundled into the charge to advertisers.
Advertisers generally agree that however their effectiveness is measured (by views, clicks, etc.), Superstitials outperform all other advertising methods. Results found by Millward Brown Interactive seem to confirm this. The firm found them to be twice as effective as banners and approximately 25% more effective than Interstitials in creating awareness. The level of entertainment and involvement was also found to be considerably higher than with banner ads.
The warm reception by the advertising community has spurred several deals that will push Superstitial penetration even further. The deal with ad pepper media will expand their usage into Europe, including Germany, the United Kingdom, and Sweden. ad pepper media has 22 branch offices in 13 European

Do your Projects/Next Actions belong to Areas of Focus? I think most of them do.
Are your Areas of Focus prioritized? I think your health is generally most important than your garden.
If so how do you calculate the resulting priority of the Next Action? Is it:
Resulting_Priority_of_Next_Action = Priority_of_Area_of_Focus * Priority_of_Project_within_Area_of_Focus * Priority_of_Next Action_within_Project

Solution to future Budget Deadlocks in CA?
Original post made by Ken in South Pleasanton on Jul 3, 2009
"Under the declaration, state offices will be closed three days a month to conserve cash. If the Legislature fails to solve the deficit within 45 days, it cannot adjourn or act on other bills until the crisis is resolved."
If we really want a budget delivered on time, wouldn't it make more sense to focus the legislators on this task 45 days BEFORE the deadline instead of giving them 45 days after the deadline before lowering the hammer? If 45 days ago they had been restricted to only budget activities we likely would not be issuing IOUs this week.

First let's organise a eurovision style contest to elect a european chief of state as first among his peers.
Second let the newly elected president nominate a european chancellor, preferably not originating from his own government.
Third, let this chancellor be approved or rejected by means of national parliaments, with general / not national headcount.
I fear the biggest barrier to socio-cultural integration anywhere is not languages, but language itself. We all speak confidently in our own language/s as if all the words we use have concrete meanings, defined in some dictionary or other. Indeed, words do have concrete meanings, pertinent to their historical context.
However, where we all come unstuck is that we can never hope to agree on precisely the same meanings for each word. Certainly not among the polyglot conglomeration found in Europe. But you really don't have to look any further than within your own family. We are beguiled by our own fluency. If language was really as free of ambiguity as it usually feels, there would be no possibility of disagreement right here in these blog sites, let alone in the political arenas.
I defy anyone to come up with concise definitions, to the satisfaction of all, for ordinary words like democracy, history, culture, freedom, economics, politics, public opinion, Europe, nationalism, religion, law, oh and happiness. I rest my case.
So many elections on so many levels. So many refrenda on so many issues. Voter fatigue, anyone?
"More integration = more contagion".
You can always put a rubber on, mate. I know, everybody likes it free but safe, but you can't have it both ways (unless you're from Soho).
Why are you sure that it will be the problem that will dissolve, and not the EU or the Euro that ends up dissolving instead... :P
Yes please, and then scram, and allow us, the EU's founding peoples, to go on with our original goal, which was NOT a mere trade free-for-all.
For peace and prosperity, we do not need the undemocratic EuroSoviet or the wealthdestroying Euro.
Back to the EEC! And treason trials for politicians who signed over powers to the undemocratic EuroSoviet.

I really enjoyed my work trip stay at the Sao Paulo WTC hotel. The first room I had was really lovely, modern, and sleek...my problem was that there was... a club in the building and I was on the 1st floor. Since my stay was for work I asked to be changed to another floor the next day and it solved the problem. There is a wide range of eateries connected to the hotel which made it a convenient and more affordable option to the Hilton. I also found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again, just at a higher floor. door I. Castro van New Jersey op 10-10-2013

The Role of Trade Credit for Small Firms: An Implication from Japan's Banking Crisis
Trade credit is one of the most important sources of short-term external finance for small firms. Previous literature has focused mainly on the substitution of bank loans for trade credit during monetary tightening among many firms, but in this paper we investigate the role of trade credit during the banking crisis in Japan. The basic motivation is to explore whether the substitution hypothesis still holds even under serious financial turbulence. Our main results suggest that the substitution hypothesis held in Japan when the banking sector was healthy, but broke down during the banking crisis. More precisely, both bank loans and trade credit contracted simultaneously during the crisis. Deteriorated bank health might have been primarily responsible for the widespread declines of credit to small and medium size firms in Japan during the banking crisis.Download Info

Laura Marling
VIMTV Album Review 624: Laura Marling – Once I Was an Eagle
Jake: 80/100
Tom: 77/100
Verdict: Very ambitious, nearly to a fault, but absolutely an album you should hear if you like acoustic and folk music.
Once I Was an Eagle is more of an epic than an album, stretching over an hour in length and clearly segregated into two distinct parts with many tracks flowing seamlessly into one another forming arching movements. This may be Marling's most ambitious work; her acoustic progressive songwriting style is as keen as ever as she simply refuses to follow any sort of predetermined structure. Her vocals are great and her lyrics are extremely bitter and pointed giving the tracks a needed edge. The back half of the record gets a little long and repetitive in comparison to the front half, but that's not enough to keep us from thinking this album is great.
Jake's Track Picks:
- 5. Master Hunter
- 6. Little Love Caster
- 7. Devil's Resting Place
- 10. Where Can I Go?
- 16. Saved These Words
Tom's Track Picks:
- 2. I Was an Eagle
- 5. Master Hunter
- 6. Little Love Caster
- 9. Undine
VIMTV Album Review #422: Laura Marling – A Creature I Don't Know
Jake: Highly Recommended, 86/100
Tom: Highly Recommended, 90/100
Verdict: An extremely impressive release from a young artist with a lot of promise.
Overview: Despite the fact she was only 21 when this album was released, Laura Marling sings with all the qualities of an old soul on A Creature I Don't Know. All this, mixed with the seductive energy of her vocal performance, creates an album that is hard to stay away from. The songwriting is also consistently great and provides a lot of variety, and the production is perfect for the folk/country sound. This is an album that pretty much everyone should check out.
Jake's Track Picks:
- 1. The Muse
- 5. The Beast
- 6. Night After Night
- 7. My Friends
- 9. Sophia
Tom's Track Picks:
- 2. I Was Just A Card
- 5. The Beast
- 6. Night After Night
- 9. Sophia
- 10. All My Rage

I believe that a foreclosure can have a significant effect on the client's life. House foreclosures can have a Six to decade negative affect on a client's credit report. A borrower who may have applied for home financing or almost any loans even, knows that the particular worse credit rating is usually, the more tough it is to secure a decent mortgage loan. In addition, it may possibly affect a new borrower's ability to find a good place to let or hire, if that will become the alternative property solution. Good blog post.
Good article. It's very unfortunate that over the last decade, the travel industry has had to handle terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, bird flu, swine flu, and the first ever entire global economic depression. Through everything the industry has proven to be effective, resilient and also dynamic, finding new ways to deal with difficulty. There are generally fresh difficulties and possibilities to which the market must once more adapt and respond.

But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
What you said made a lot of sense. But, think about this, what if you added a little content? I mean, I dont want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added something to maybe get peoples attention? Just like a video or a picture or two to get people excited about what youve got to say. In my opinion, it would make your blog come to life a little bit.
Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it hard to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I'm thinking about creating my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions? Thank you
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.
Published striking placing! I must say i loved analyzing it, you will be an incredible article writer.I'm able to remember to take note of your website and can oftentimes give back someday. I would like to strongly encourage everyone carry on with your current great reports, have got a attractive getaway week end!
An additional issue is that video games are normally serious anyway with the most important focus on learning rather than entertainment. Although, there's an entertainment part to keep the kids engaged, each and every game is often designed to develop a specific group of skills or area, such as mathematics or scientific research. Thanks for your posting.

Unfortunately, individuals who have developed an addiction must have the drug and find various ways around legal hurdles. Black market street sales and illegally forged prescriptions have been used for years to obtain dozens of abused pharmaceuticals and OxyContin has quickly become a leader as one of the most widely abused drugs. Why? Well, OxyContin contains the active ingredient oxycodone, which is basically synthetic morphine. This is an opiate that gives the user a euphoric feeling that some people become addicted to and try to recapture the pleasurable feeling again and again by abusing the drug. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental health Services Administration's Drug Abuse Warning Network, emergency room incidents involving oxycodone have increased 89% between 1993 and 1999. It jumped another 68% from 1999 to 2000 so clearly the abuse issue is very real. You may have found this website because you are already familiar with the potential problems OxyContin poses. The doctor may have started you out on OxyContin to relieve your persistent pain and at some point you started taking more than the prescribed dosage because it wasn't working as well as it once did. A few days, weeks or months later you wake up and realize that getting your hands on more OxyContin has become a major goal of your day. You seem to think about it constantly. Friends and love ones start to bring it up as a problem affecting your life. Soon you find yourself doing things you never would have done before, going to multiple doctors, exaggerating or pretending to have pain or even forging prescriptions and stealing from pharmacies. These are all signs and symptoms of addiction to OxyContin.
Here are some others: Spencer Recovery Centers has dealt with hundreds of clients with these exact symptoms. Our effective treatment methods are based the same experience and research as other opiates such as heroin. If you are addicted to OxyContin, you may have already discovered that you cannot quit on your own. Your brain has undergone chemical changes that make stopping on your own, without severe withdrawal symptoms, impossible. Our medical doctors can give you the proper medication to get through this critical detoxification stage before our licensed counseling staff helps develop the behaviors necessary to live without OxyContin. Call us today for help. Our professional staff is standing
by to give you a confidential consultation. Give us a call. Facts and figures related to OxyContin were found at The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a component of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. |
