Posted on 08/19/2010 8:09:39 PM PDT by GOP_Lady
Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani is characterizing the proposed mosque and Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero as "divisive," saying Thursday that the organizers' plans are breeding hate rather than healing wounds.
"All this is doing is creating more division, more anger, more hatred," Mr. Giuliani said during an interview on NBC's "Today" show.
"The reality is that right now, if you are a healer, you do not go forward with this project. If you're a warrior you do," declared Mr. Giuliani, the New York official most closely associated with the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.
The remarks put him squarely at odds with his successor, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the proposed mosque's most outspoken advocate.
Mr. Giuliani, a former U.S. attorney and a Republican candidate for president in 2008, said the organizers have "every right" to build the center two blocks from the site of the fallen Twin Towers.
"The question is, should they build it?" he said. "Are they displaying the sensitivity they claim by building it?"

it is not near it is on ground zero.
does he come out and say no it should not be built?
Great to hear him speak out on this, he was terrific on O'Reilly tonight.
He also took direct aim at the imam behind the center, Feisal Abdul Rauf, accusing him of "selling sensitivity" and questioning whether his motives are genuine.
The former mayor praised Democratic Gov. David Paterson for proposing to meet with the project's organizers in hopes of finding an alternative location in Lower Manhattan that would be less controversial."
... to put it mildly.
Romney takes pass from red media on mowusk, eats chicken without skin.
It is truly disgusting to see the same anti-american media who were eagerly hoping a loony right wing Christian would shoot something up so they could pounce on American Christians. Leap to the defense of our enemys in the name of religious freedom. Disgusting.
Cool it, Rome.
NOW they're interested in religious freedom.
Giuliani continues in the tradition of Republican New York City mayor Fiorello LaGuardia (1933-45). One play from LaGuardia's playbook was to find the enemy's weak spot and drive a sledgehammer into it. Giuliani does it with the faint sound of regret. It's like watching a master assassin at work with the stiletto.
The former mayor praised Democratic Gov. David Paterson for proposing to meet with the project's organizers in hopes of finding an alternative location in Lower Manhattan that would be less controversial.
Another patented LaGuardia play. Pick an enemy, praise him, put him on the spot, and separate him from the rest of his herd. Paterson now has to tap-dance his way out of Giuliani's embrace. This is a death sentence in New York City's liberal Democratic organization, where Giuliani is considered the spawn of Satan -- almost as much as the arch-devil Reagan.
It's fun watching the pros at work.
He is ALWAYS terrific.....
I just hope if the mosque gets built, that a few homos are stoned to death, and they start honor killing... Yeah baby, Islam, its a religion of peaces,, of deab people.
Sure. They are trying to give cover to Obama the magnificient. I think Rev. Wright should come out of the basement and defend his flock member.
I'd love to see that.
Yep. He's common sense and to the point.
He calls it as it is.
There is no reason for it to be divisive!
Most people do not recognize that what happens in a mosque is sedition. Pure and simple. Islam is not just a religion, it is a cult. Larger than that though, it is a political system, it is its own government, its judicial...is in its sharia, and its military (jihadis) all rolled into one with one intent ...and that is to rule wherever they take root. It is a invasive, systemic infection looking to take over the host once it has quantum.
This is not just a religion, but something that cloaks itself in those terms so it should not be given the same treatment contemplated under the first amendment. The Korans Sharia rules are to consume whatever government there is wherever it goes.
It is political, and its goal is to supplant and replace.
The sooner America learns this , the better.
Obama? Obama and Company? Should be tried for treason in this issue for promoting the establishment of a foreign government on our soils. He is doing nothing to protect America as per his oath. Also, as a Muslim, he knows this, he know far better, he knows sharia, but is looking to deceive America.
For all interested...Wanna learn more?
and this
Lets keep America, America!
Obama? Obama and Company? Should be tried for treason in this issue for promoting the establishment of a foreign government on our soils. As a Muslim, he knows this, he knows sharia, but is looking to deceive America.
You are welcome.
And you are correct! :-)
I have a gut feeling that "divisiveness" is exactly what the enemy wants to do to America.
It is using every means to do just that.
Divide and conquer.
Unfortunately, he heavily serves the NAMBLA crowd.
Mitt usually has something to say a month or more after an event. It's early now. He's waiting for research reports, poll testing.. before he makes a vague, platitudinous speak
DUH, I meant Hannity
Oh, I was going to catch the replay of O'Reilly to see if he was on that show as well.
Romney seems as tone-deaf on these ad-hoc news stories as Palin seems to pick the right ones to weigh in on.
Finally somebody's properly framed the debate: the muzzies are insensitive, not us. If we're a little bit touchy over the place where 2500 of our people were massacred, who can blame us?
RINO Giuliani, "alighting upon the obvious, with a sense of surprise."
Leave it to the Democrats to side with a religion founded by a child-molesting, mass murdering misogynist.
His more incisive remarks were about Sharia law: How can they scream "freedom of religion" and then ignore our fundamental freedom from interference by government in religious matters by proposing religious law? A total contradiction.
I have my problems with Rudy, but is there any doubt he would have been a better president than McCain.
What's Rudy's view on Bloomberg "ending" term limits? Rudy was a better mayor, IMHO, despite his RINO tendencies and despite his "drag queen" moment. Rudy would be mayor right now, if he ended up getting rid of term limits, instead of Bloomberg doing so. What a shame!
How can they scream freedom of religion and then ignore our fundamental freedom from interference by government in religious matters by proposing religious law? A total contradiction.
The truly sad thing is that, only a few years ago, this would have been obvious to all.
Wouldn't want him as President, but he was a hell of a mayor, and on stuff like this, he's great. And he's using the liberals' favorite words—things like "divisive"—against them. It's great to watch.
This has sent me a clear message about Islam. This mosque is not about worshiping and honoring God. Its about creating division. It demonstrates to me that Islam is about division.
Yay for Giuliani. Finally someone has figured out how to frame the debate and use the liberals' own terms and ideals against them.
It's more than divisive, it's out of the question.
Not "incisive" at all:
"They" don't believe in "freedom of religion" and never proclaim that statement. In fact, they oppose all religion except Islam. Ever hear, "there is no God, but Allah"?
Actually, here is what Romney has said about the mosque through his spokesman: Governor Romney opposes the construction of the mosque at Ground Zero. The wishes of the families of the deceased and the potential for extremists to use the mosque for global recruiting and propaganda compel rejection of this site.
Pretty strong position.
On threads of this nature, I make it a point of never using an uppercase "I" or "M" when typing Islam or Muslim. To do so would be to render respect to a cult that doesn't deserve it. Others may continue to do otherwise but that is my practice. That cult will NEVER get any of my respect.
Before anyone calls me on it, I posted my #48 on my iPhone. It must have defaulted to uppercase for those two words I specified. I did not use uppercase for them myself. I never have and never will.

Marcus Allen, an�NFL Hall of Fame running back and football analyst, won�t be the only one glued to the Big Game this weekend, when�the Baltimore Ravens challenge the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII.�It promises to be a great one, a battle of the Harbaugh brothers that should make parents everywhere envious�well, except maybe Archie and Olivia Manning. But for Allen, perhaps even more important than this great American tradition is what the NFL is tackling on the sidelines. Together with the Urology Care Foundation, the league has launched the �Know Your Stats� About Prostate Cancer campaign, an initiative to encourage men to talk to their doctors about whether they should be screened for prostate cancer.

This lecture gives a preview of the 2013 exhibition, Sicily: Art and Invention between Greece and Rome, at the Getty Villa. Innovation and experimentation flourished in ancient Sicily, an island crossroads that forged a distinctive Hellenic identity and occupied a pivotal position in Mediterranean history. Former Greek colonies emerged as wealthy city-states, and their art, architecture, theater, poetry, philosophy, and science left an original and enduring stamp on mainland Greece and Rome.

I just ate Monicals thin crust for the first time this last Thursday. It was very good. I noticed the bottom of the crust was quite blistered and not really brown. This may be a result of their ovens.
You need to work on their deep dish.....in my opinion, Monicals deep dish pizza is even better than the thin crust.
After coating the bottom of the 7 cutter pan with a combination of a pulverized clove of fresh garlic and olive oil (about a teaspoon),
What quantities did you add in the other spices in your tomatos.
Mike,What kind of pan did you use, and what bake temperature? And did you use the recipe for the 8"?Peter
I used a 9" round pan from pizzatools.com with the non stick coating on it. I baked at 450.
BTW you are also going in the right direction, I do believe thickness is off
Dan,Are you referring to the thin clone or the pan clone? I notice that I didn't show a cross-sectional view of the thin clone that would have given a good indication of crust thickness. Peter

Although the weather has just recently warmed up, temperatures are high enough to make cars an unsafe place for unattended dogs. That is the message Oklahoma officials are conveying to residents to prevent heat-related deaths of children and pets this year, Tulsa World reports.
Leaving a dog in the car while you run into a store quickly may not seem like a serious issue, but the temperature inside a car can climb up to 30 degrees warmer than the temperature outside in as little as 20 minutes, the news outlet reports.
"If you get out of the car, the dog gets out of the car," advises veterinarian Paul Welch, according to the news outlet.
It is important to remember that because dogs cannot regulate their body temperature by sweating like humans can, they can only pant to cool off, VCA Animal Hospitals reports. Heat stroke can lead to organ failure and death, so it is important to remember this when traveling with your dog.
The most common cause of heat stroke in dogs is being left in the car without adequate ventilation, VCA reports. A dog suffering from heat stroke should be treated using cool cloths to lower the body temperature. You should bring your canine to an animal hospital for safe, controlled reduction of its body temperature and to see if further treatment is needed.

Any good diplomat will tell you that getting out of the capital is the best way to gain a fresh perspective on the country in which you're serving. In many ways, Nepal feels like two separate nations -- Kathmandu and the rest of the country. I've been fortunate to have traveled far outside of the Kathmandu Valley to meet with members of the local press. Most recently, I visited three districts in the central part of Nepal.
One of the priorities for the Public Affairs section in Kathmandu is the professional development of journalists in Nepal, especially in the remote areas where most working journalists have never received a formal education or training. My first stop was in the small town of Kusma, where 20 female journalists were participating in a week-long training program sponsored by the Embassy. I gave a presentation on the impact of new media on journalism and explained how the Embassy uses social media. The energy from these motivated young women was almost enough to run the projector when the power gave out (a common problem here).
Visiting the training program was just part of the reason for the road trip. The other was to meet with local journalists to understand the press environment in the remote parts of the country. A common complaint is the threat of violence from thugs hired to intimidate and attack journalists who expose corruption or write negative stories about powerful people or businesses. It didn't take much prodding on my part to get these journalists to share their thoughts on the impunity of criminal gangs and the failure of the local government to protect the press.
A highlight of the trip was a visit to a new radio station in Pokhara that is run by and geared toward children. I was interviewed by a veteran 16-year-old girl who posed hard-hitting questions about my childhood and education in the United States. My odd situation as a never-married, childless woman of a certain age was another topic of extreme interest.
One thing I've learned from official travel is to leave enough time in the schedule for unexpected things: a dancing demon on the street outside the hotel, a walk across one of the longest pedestrian bridges in Nepal, and an unscheduled stop at an agricultural research center. While these things may not contribute to my knowledge of the status of the press in Nepal, they do help me understand the everyday life of Nepalis. These are experiences you can't have unless you get out of the capital and get out of the car once in awhile.

I'm shocked at how much Nepal has changed. The last time I was there was in the 80's (I've been there 3 times total). That bridge was never there, you use to have to hike hundreds of feet down, then hundreds up the other side. Wow. And I was especially surprise and happy to see that this once "backward, third world" county has passed same sex marriage. WOW!! Progressing beyond the U.S. in many ways.

Topic: observe_field not working
I have two text boxes that need different values based on what the user selects in a drop down list. The text boxes are located in _location_defaults.rhtml.

Katie Egging, Assistant Professor of English at Union College, has been selected to present a paper at the American Literature Association in Washington, D.C.
The annual national conference is being held May 22-25 at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill.
Dr. Egging is participating in the session entitled "Racing Places: African American Memory and Politics" and will be presenting her paper on "Arlington National Cemetery in May Miller's Stragglers in the Dust."
"The conference draws scholars from across the U.S. and abroad to share research and pedagogy about American literature," said Egging.
The session is being chaired by Wilfred D. Samuels of University of Utah, and the other panelists include Hannah Baker Saltmarsh of Dillard University, Lale Demirturk of Bilkent University and Eric Atkinson, University of California, Riverside.
In her presentation, Egging will argue Miller's play points out there are fractures in who we consider is an American. Set in the 1930s, Stragglers in the Dust takes place in Arlington National Cemetery and poses a radical question for its day: could the "Unknown Soldier" be African American? Egging explained Miller's play brings to light those aspects of American identity and history war monuments such as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier attempt to erase and strives to illuminate African Americans' central role in not only World War I but also the larger development of the nation.
"My hope is to get useful feedback on the project and meet other scholars in my field of study," Egging said of her goals for presenting at the conference. "The ultimate goal is to use the feedback to revise the paper in order to submit it as an article for publication."

Foxconn Electronics, one of the world's largest contract makers of electronics, will make netbooks for Apple, a media report from Taiwan claims. Earlier some analysts already predicted that a netbook from Apple should emerge on the market sometimes in the middle of 2009.
Taiwan-based Commercial Times news-paper (which article was partly translated by DigiTimes web-site) claims that Foxconn will land orders to make netbooks for Apple. However, the report lacks any details apart from this fact. Considering that Foxconn is the largest manufacturing partner of Apple, it is hardly surprising that it has chances to land orders to a new product.
Neither Apple nor Foxconn have commented on the news-story and the latter has not even made a usual filing with the Taiwan Stock Exchange saying that it does not comment on relationship with its customers.
Late last year analyst firm Technology Business Research said that Apple would announce the new product at MacWorld in January 2009, to become available around mid-year. Apple has not formally introduced any netbooks so far. TBR believed that Apple's ultra-portable computer would come in two sizes, one much like the MacBook Air and one similar to a netbook, with the smaller unit priced at $599.
There are several problems that Apple has run into and which it needs to solve better sooner than later. Apple needs news customers to increase its market share and revenue level, however, it needs to maintain its profit margins and also do everything to sustain sales of expensive Macintosh offerings.
Netbooks – which are based on either Intel Atom processors or Intel Celeron M chips – are not what Apple has traditionally offered to its customers. However, tough economic times require unusual decisions and a launch of ultra low cost Mac may be that decision for Apple, although the company has always said it was not interested in low-end PCs. So, maybe Macbook Net is just around the corner?

In Years Past
100 Years Ago
In 1913, the Little Falls authorities called upon Gov. Sulzer to affirm or deny a story that he was treated discourteously by the Little Falls police during his campaign tour, or submit to an official investigation. The story was related by Mayor Lunn of Schenectary, who was arrested the past fall for addressing a meeting of strikers in the public street. According to Mayor Lunn, it was authorized by the governor. The chief of police denied the charge and when President Leary of the police and fire board wrote to Gov. Sulzer for his version, the governor's secretary said the governor requested that the matter be dropped.
At the hearing held in the Dunkirk City Hall by the police and fire board to reference the charge of attempted bribery made against Police Chief Fred W. Quandt by Assemblyman John Sullivan, city Attorney Lyman Kilburg and Police Sergeant Frederick Krohn were the chief witnesses called. Krohn testified that he was night sergeant on Feb. 9, 1912, the date of the alleged bribery. He stated that Chief Quandt told him that he had approached the assemblyman in the interest of the bill in question and had offered him $200 if he would get it passed by the legislature. Krohn quoted Quandt as saying that he had remarked to Assemblyman Sullivan that the money could be thrown into the assemblyman's office some night if the transom were left conveniently open.
75 Years Ago
In 1938, reports were current that Al Capone, under observation in the hospital ward at Alcatraz Island federal prison, might be transferred to the federal hospital for insane criminals at Springfield, Mo. The rumor persisted that the Chicago gangster, serving time for income tax law violation, was suffering from paresis, a condition which would bring about destruction of the brain cells. A spokesman for the department of justice at Washington admitted the Chicago gangster was under observation but insisted staff physicians had made no definite diagnosis.
The Falconer Rod and Gun Club held its regular meeting in the old village hall with Peter Gregg presiding. The field secretary reported that a permit had been received for the importation of rabbits from Missouri and Kansas. The pheasant feeding committee announced that there was plenty of feed on hand at the club rooms and at the Star Wallpaper Company store on South Main Street, Jamestown. After a discussion on whether or not the size for legal take of bass and muskellunge should be changed, the club went on record opposing any change from the present regulations.
50 Years Ago
In 1963, fire of undetermined origin caused $100,000 in building and stock damage Friday afternoon at Tri-State Hardwood Co., Pennsylvania Avenue, Corry, Pa. Fifty firemen from Corry and Columbus spent five hours fighting the blaze in sub-zero weather. F.T. Griffin of Union City, plant manager, said 70,000 board feet of hardwood lumber was lost in the fire. Fire Chief Jerome Davis of Corry said the exact cause of the fire was not determined but it apparently started in the southeast corner of the cement block and frame building above one of two drying kilns. The fact that there was a fire was not immediately discernible, since the kiln drying process made use of steam which billowed around the outside of the building.
The cold wave gripping Chautauqua County and the Northeastern portion of the nation moved into its second day as temperatures continued to hover around the zero mark. An overnight low of 10-below was registered in Jamestown and the temperature had risen to only five-below by 8 a.m. The sub-zero weather failed to daunt half a dozen boy scouts of Troop 76 who spent the night in tents in Baker Park, West Fourth and Clinton streets. The scouts set up their tents just after supper the previous evening and were all in bed by 10 p.m. The boys had breakfast in the park this morning and planned to stay in their frigid camp until after lunch.
25 Years Ago
In 1988, George Bush once claimed he'd found "big mo" in Iowa. This time it was more like "slo mo." The Republican momentum belonged to Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas and, in an embarrassing setback to the vice president, to former television evangelist Pat Robertson. Bush was relegated to third place in the Iowa precinct caucuses the previous night. Dole gained 38 percent of the vote in a caucus night straw poll that gave Robertson 24 percent and Bush 19 percent.
Jamestown City Council members approved a $100,000 10-year loan to Dahlstrom Manufacturing Co., 443 Buffalo St., as part of a $2,003,000 project expected to create 100 new jobs. The loan, approved in late January by the Jamestown Local Development Corp., was part of a project to renovate the building and acquire new machinery. Company spokesmen had said the project called for setting up a high volume manufacturing cell so the firm could manufacture a different type of metal line than it was producing at present. The company had yet to disclose what that product would be, but officials said the cell would allow the company to enter new markets which it previously couldn't be competitive in.

Ask Chris #171: The Superman (Well, Supermen) of the Marvel Universe
Q: Do Superman-esque characters like The Sentry or Blue Marvel work in the Marvel Universe? -- @SuperSeth64
A: You know, Seth, this is one of those questions that seems really simple when you first look at it. I mean, it's a yes or no question, so the short answer is about as short as it can possibly be. The thing is, the reasoning behind that answer has to do with how entire shared fictional universes work and how they've been influencing each other for the past 50 to 70 years, and how one character in particular has defined an entire genre that came to dominate the medium, so for the long answer, well, I hope you've got a few minutes.
If you don't, here's the short answer: No. No they do not.

On the Fourth of July, I wrote an entry celebrating the "American Brand." I feel even more strongly about the importance and value of the "American Brand" after a recent trip to South East Asia and the Middle East.
I traveled throughout Vietnam, Cambodia, and Burma with businessmen and women from over 50 of America's best companies seeking opportunities to increase trade and investment in the region. The delegations -- which were organized by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the U.S.-ASEAN Business Council -- met with Secretary Clinton and senior foreign business leaders and government officials, including several heads of state.
Our delegations were enthusiastically greeted in every country we visited. Business and government leaders there recognized that American companies have a reputation for bringing something special to the table -- a commitment to provide high-quality, innovative goods and services coupled with strong corporate responsibility and ethical standards. This is the "American Brand" that is so-often associated with our very best companies. "Made in America" and "Made in Partnership with American Companies" mean something exceptional in South East Asia, and across the globe.
I participated in a similar delegation to Tunisia a month ago, arranged by the by the National U.S.-Arab Chamber of Commerce; the delegation enjoyed an enthusiastic response from governmental and business leaders. The Tunisians -- as they undertake major economic reforms -- want to partner with American companies because of the goods and services they sell, the trade relationships they can forge, and the investment can bring -- as well as the symbol of quality American companies represent.
Looking forward, in August I am traveling to South Africa with Secretary Clinton to participate in our Strategic Dialogue with that government and in a series of discussions with South African and American business leaders. While there, Secretary Clinton will lead and participate in events surrounding a U.S. Chamber of Commerce organized high-level trade mission, to meet with business and government leaders. And, we are planning a similar high-level trade mission to Egypt, in September, organized by the U.S.-Egypt Business Council. I am confident that our delegations will receive warm welcomes and find opportunities for constructive engagement in both countries. During each of these visits, the caliber of the U.S. companies and the fact that they collectively represent the "American Brand" will help strengthen America's economic ties, develop mutually beneficial business partnerships, and add a very constructive dimension to our foreign policy relationship.
The value of the "American Brand" is noteworthy. It features the United States as an incubator of creative goods and services, and of entrepreneurial companies, many of which spread their best practices globally through their products, trade partnerships and investments. American companies are innovative and adapt to change quickly; that's why people in so many countries look to them for state of the art products and services. U.S. businesses thrive on the free flow of ideas and information within our country and internationally, connecting with universities, research institutions and other generators of creative ideas. They engage in constant interaction with customers and suppliers. They are the stewards of a culture of innovation and invention that dates back to Ben Franklin, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, and extends to Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and beyond.
Large numbers of U.S. businesses in this country produce their goods and services with a workforce that is racially, culturally and religiously diversified. So our companies are comfortable working in diverse societies. And as a nation that has benefitted enormously from waves of immigrants, with rich and diverse origins and cultures, our workforce reflects the world in which our companies operate.
Our most dynamic companies place a high value on talent and hard work, looking to all employees to inject creative ideas and new ways of thinking and doing business. Such companies tend to be meritocracies that respect and value their workers as their most valuable assets, providing significant training, career development and opportunities for upward mobility -- in the United States and wherever they operate. This culture of opportunity and fairness is, in part, why men and women from all over the world strive to work for leading American companies. There is, of course, always room for improvement regarding race, gender, and other factors. Nevertheless, diversity and meritocracy have been one of America's greatest strengths for decades, are practiced by large numbers of U.S. companies, and are a powerful engine in America's business model.
Strong business values are also synonymous with the "American Brand." For America's most respected companies, profitability and doing the right thing go hand in hand. This means adhering to the rule of law; operating in an ethical manner; practicing transparency; and, prioritizing accountability to customers, shareholders, and society. It also means high internal standards and compliance with regulatory and safety requirements, so that consumers have confidence in the effectiveness and quality of American goods and services.
For example, America has exceptionally high standards for pharmaceuticals -- the companies who make them and the regulations that apply to them. That's why most Americans -- 88 percent according to a recent poll -- are confident that prescription drugs made in the United States are safe, efficacious, and free from contamination. Foreign businesses that partner with, and buy from, U.S. pharmaceutical companies stand to benefit from this reputation and dedication to quality. Trust is based on a long-standing commitment of successful businesses to doing what's right, not what is expedient, whether at home or abroad. Much the same can be said for American food products, engineering goods and services, advanced technology and capital goods, medical equipment and the output of many other industries.
Similarly, a large and growing number of American companies share strong commitments to sound environmental practices at home and take that commitment abroad in the products they sell and the investments they make. They view these practices as good business, good for their brand and good for the planet.
The "American Brand" prioritizes responsiveness to customers as well as to the broader community. This is true whether companies sell abroad or invest abroad. That's why the United States has led the Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brands Index every year since its inception in 2009. This is a survey ranking international perception of 50 nations by polling over 20,000 respondents with respect to exports, governance, culture, people, tourism, immigration and investment. According to the survey, citizens from around the world generally prefer American goods, even, in many cases, over those made within their own borders. This is particularly true when it comes to high-value products, where quality is essential, such as airplanes, pharmaceuticals, energy-efficient appliances, highly-engineered equipment, sophisticated semiconductors, food products, and the like. And, of course, there is enormous enthusiasm overseas about American movies and music.
Individual American companies -- much like the "American Brand" -- are defined not just by their products or services, but also by their values and cultures. Every year, Interbrand, the world's largest brand consultancy, develops a list of "The Top 100 Best Global Brands." These highly innovative businesses respond to the needs of their people, their consumers and the world.
In 2011, all of the top ten brands were American: Coca-Cola, IBM, Microsoft, Google, GE, McDonald's, Intel, Apple, Disney, and Hewlett-Packard. Whether working at home or abroad, these companies, and many others, demonstrate ideals that are paramount to the success and value of their respective brands -- they engage with local communities and civil society, recognize the importance of broader social and environmental issues, and create economic growth and upward mobility for employees through on-the-job training and ongoing workforce development. The most successful American brands truly do well by doing good.
The Secretary of State's Award for Corporate Excellence -- or ACE Award -- was established in 1999 to recognize the important role U.S. businesses play abroad as good corporate citizens. Awardees highlight America as a positive force in the world through their companies' corporate social responsibility, innovation, exemplary practices and embrace of democratic values.
Secretary Clinton presented the 2011 ACE Award to Sahlman Seafoods and Procter & Gamble. Sahlman Seafoods' investment in Nicaragua goes beyond just its core shrimp processing business. As part of their operations, they have hired large numbers of local women, sponsored a soup kitchen, invested in the health and education of the surrounding community and instituted numerous environmental safeguards for their facility. Similarly, Procter & Gamble, while working in Nigeria, has purified more than 2.5 million liters of water; built mobile health clinics that provide free medical care, baby care tips, and health education to mothers and their children; and worked with schools to create a health program specifically for girls that reaches more than a million students each year.
Last year, the United States exported an all-time record of $2.1 trillion in goods and services -- a strong testimony to the success of American brands and the "American Brand." President Obama's pledge to double U.S. exports by the end of 2014 is within reach because so many American companies offer high-quality goods and services and are committed to building shared value -- finding win-win solutions for customers; improving the lives of people around the world; and building dynamic networks of suppliers, buyers and investors. And, that's why American companies are, and will continue to be, valuable international trade and investment partners.

Great mews and info, but one of my main questions is that I read recently that almost none of our phamaceuticals are made in US. If this is true in any way, then we are making ourselves vulerable and at an unnessasary risk.
Godfrey in the U.S.A. writes:
Pity Hormats can not bring those iPhone manufacturing jobs back home to the United States.
Although the author points out that Steve Jobs personifies a culture of innovation, American brands such as Apple are happy to allow the Chinese to make our products -- despite the well-documented cases of human rights abuses in overseas factories. Meanwhile, the U.S. economy continues to suffer and the unemployed rate remains high.

Any idea what kind of shaker he's using there? it's a beautiful piece!
I'm digging the "laptop bartop" – I'd likely never leave the couch. 🙂
Don't mean to "sales pitch" but Josh, if $500 is too rich for your blood and silver isn't necessary for you, I have a Parisian style shaker at my store. It's not quite as nice in materials and craftsmanship as Salvatore's, but it's strong stainless steel and gets drinks wicked cold.

Frewsburg Keywell plants closing
FREWSBURG – According to the state Labor Department, Keywell LLC will be closing at least one of its two area plants.
On Friday, the worker adjustment and retraining notification for Keywell was posted on the state Labor Department's website. The notification states the 300 Falconer St., Frewsburg, location will be closing on Oct. 24. Employee layoffs will occur between Friday and Sept. 19 and Oct. 11 and Oct. 24. A total of 49 employees will be affected. The notification lists the economy as the reason for the plant to close.
The notification also states Keywell's other Falconer location, 1873 Lyndon Blvd., will be affected. It states 83 employees are located at this facility. However, the notification doesn't state whether this location will be closing too.
A call to Keywell officials was not returned Friday.
Keywell is an aerospace metals and specialty steel recycling business. In 1987, Keywell purchased the business of Vac Air Alloys Corporation, a supplier of high-temperature alloys and stainless steel scrap processor. The purchase included two domestic processing facilities located in Frewsburg and West Mifflin, Pa. Keywell is headquartered in Chicago, Ill.
According to reports earlier this month, Keywell signed a memorandum of understanding with an unidentified investor to sell a substantial portion of the stainless and specialty steel scrap processing company. It was also reported Keywell will be closing a California site as well.

Routing Approval Instructions: Payroll Calendar:
> Faculty and Visiting Scientist > 2012 Bi-Weekly Payroll Calendar
> Pre - Doctoral Fellows > 2012 Monthly Payroll Calendar
> Staff
The Human Resources Department and the Einstein Budget Office have been working to improve the Yeshiva Employee Status System (YESS) processes.
With the support of a multi functional team of Einstein and YU administrators, the processes embedded in YESS have been streamlined and will now require fewer approval steps and improved turnarounds. These process improvements will improve the timing of compensation payments to all faculty and staff employees, Pre and Post Docs. The accuracy of data in our employee records and financial systems will also be enhanced.
Effective immediately, we will implement the new PSF routing approval structure for Pre-docs, Post Docs, Faculty (includes Research Trainees and Visiting Scientists) and Staff. A copy of the new PSF Routing instructions are linked below based upon employee classification. We would ask that you review these documents and have them readily available when you process transactions in YESS.
Payroll Calendar:
In an effort to improve timely processing of YESS transactions, we are providing a 2011 calendar on a bi-weekly and monthly payroll to assist in determining the payroll that approved YESS transactions will be processed. If you have any questions, please contact the Payroll office at (718) 430-2207 (Resnick campus) or (212) 960-5466 (Manhattan campus).
There will be more planned improvements over the next several months as well as on-line training and updated YESS documentation. We will continue to communicate with you as changes are implemented.
If you have any questions about the planned improvements, please contact Michele Russo at email@example.com or Annemarie Blancato at firstname.lastname@example.com.

No, it's not just for old ladies in Palm Beach. Enamel bracelets are a fun way to add a burst of color to any outfit (at any age), especially during the summer months. I wear stacks of them in various sizes and patterns for a funky armful of enamel. I love to hear them clang against each other. These Hermès Point d'Orgue bangles (narrow for $450 and extra wide for $700) are like looking through kaleidoscopes. Each has it's own geometric array of color.
If you want to wear several like I do but want a frugal option, check of the J. Crew two-tone oval bangles ($35). There's three color ways to choose from. My favorite for summer is the nautical blue and white, which would look perfectly preppy on its own. This Bottega Veneta cuff ($5,250) is chic enough to hold its own also, with rigid shapes and rich jewel-tone enamel.
And don't think enamel just comes in fun colors. It comes in fun shapes too, like this Aurelie Bidermann coral bracelet ($1,700). It's more of a statement piece, not a pile-on style, but it's a vivid, bright color for summer, which is just what the season needs.

Franny's in Brooklyn
April 20, 2005, 08:15:52 PM »
Here's an article in today's NY Times. It sounds like an interesting new place in Brooklyn to check out (Franny's)...
April 20, 2005
A Student of the Pizza Does a Little Homework
By MELISSA CLARK
N the narrow kitchen of his apartment on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, Andrew Feinberg was about to make clam pizza.
That might sound like a perfectly quotidian pastime for Mr. Feinberg, since he is the chef and an owner of Franny's restaurant, a favorite among New York pizza fans. But truth is, he'd never made pizza at home.
In fact before opening Franny's a year ago in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, he had never made pizza at all. Ever.
"Pizza was never Andrew's thing," said Francine Stephens, Mr. Feinberg's wife, who owns Franny's with him. "The week before the restaurant opened, Andrew was so nervous. I mean, (a) we put in a brand new brick oven, and (b) he had never made pizza before."
Mr. Feinberg shrugged, unperturbed, as he patted and poked a large bowl of dough to decide whether it had reached cool room temperature. It hadn't.
"It's not rocket science," he said. "If any successful New York chef opened a brick-oven pizzeria, they'd all be great. Right?"
He looked up at Ms. Stephens, who shrugged with the barest hint of skepticism.
"When we first opened Andrew didn't know what he was doing," she said, stirring her coffee. "He'd roll out the dough with a rolling pin before he figured out how to stretch it. I'm surprised anyone came back after that first week."
For Mr. Feinberg, the steepest part of the curve was learning how to make the dough consistent. Sometimes it stretched into perfectly thin disks that erupted with charred puffy bubbles when baked in the searing brick oven. And sometimes it didn't, tearing and bouncing back when he tried to pull it out into a circle. After much trial and error and help from Harold McGee's food science tome, "On Food and Cooking," Mr. Feinberg learned how to navigate myriad pitfalls.
While he explained them, tossing off terms like gliadin and autolyse, he prepared the topping. After sautéing onions, garlic, bay leaves and chili flakes in a huge stockpot, he added wine and a giant mound of littleneck clams, then closed the cover. He stood over the pot, lifting the lid every five minutes to pluck out the open clams. After tearing out the meat and putting it to the side in a bowl, he tossed the shells over his shoulder into a trash bin.
This took about 20 minutes, barely enough to complete his dough discourse. The short version: over-knead it, and the gluten breaks down, meaning that the dough won't stretch out nicely. Under-knead, and the gluten doesn't develop, so the dough won't stretch out nicely. Start pulling the dough when it's too cold, and it won't stretch out nicely. Start when it's too warm, and it will stick to your hands and the counter and won't stretch out nicely.
At Franny's he overcame the pitfalls and developed a recipe that calls for a minimum of yeast and a slow overnight rise to develop a savory, deep flavor.
When the clams were cooked Mr. Feinberg added some cream to the liquid left in the pot and set it to simmer so it would thicken into a glaze. He checked the dough again, divided it into balls and covered them with towels. More waiting, this time to let the gluten relax so the dough would ... well, you know.
With a few minutes to relax himself, he poured a cup of coffee and stirred in a splash of the cream from the same container he had just used in reducing the cooking liquid.
"I honestly think this recipe wouldn't be as good if I didn't use this cream," he said, showing the label: Evans' Farmhouse organic cream from Norwich, N.Y. "You've got to taste it. It's different depending on the time of year. When the cows are outside eating grass it's really thick and fatty. Now they are on hay, silage, so it's thinner. But it still has a lot of flavor."
Given that most clam pizzas consist of steamed clams on a white pie or chopped ones on a red, Mr. Feinberg's creamy version seemed comparatively elaborate.
"It may be more work," he acknowledged, "but it's worth it. Most clam pizzas don't taste clammy enough because they don't use the juices from the clams."
His inspiration came from an unlikely source: a lobster salad he used to make at Veritas in Manhattan.
"We used to buy giant bags of mussels just to steam them open for the juice," he said. "We'd throw out the meat. Then we'd reduce the juice down with cream to a glaze, and it became the sauce for the lobster salad."
As he spoke, he stretched the dough balls into thin rounds with a touch now practiced and expert. He painted some clam cream over the top and arranged the clams evenly over the dough. Then he sprinkled on a pinch of chili flakes.
Now was the moment of truth for his heterodox plan to cook pizza at home.
He slid the pie into the oven on top of quarry tiles that had been preheating for the past hour, then closed the oven door and waited five minutes, just long enough to firm up and brown the bottom of the dough. Then, using tongs and a spatula, he transferred the pie onto the broiler rack and set the flame to high to lightly singe the top of the pizza.
It was bubbly and golden and perfectly pocked with black scorch marks on top. He gilded the pie with olive oil and parsley. The pizza tasted like the sea, with richness from the olive oil and cream and a bite from the chili flakes. The toasty, toothsome crust was nearly as good as the one on the clam pie at Franny's.
Mr. Feinberg frowned. "Yeah, it's pretty good," he said, "but there's probably a way to make it better."

Natural Factors, Ginkgo Biloba, 60 mg, 60 Capsules
Posted by FEED-ME-MORE on Jun 10, 2013
Too bad it is only 20 days supplement but it is Canadian quality and price is good, because ginkgo is not a cheap herb. So if you can't afford more expensive or you can't buy it due to customs fees, you can always grab this bottle and you will have all the benefits it is giving. It is for mental support, for circulatory health, perfect antioxidant and overall well known and powerful stuff in the world. Give me YES and feed me, otherwise I'll eat whole bottle at the time ;)
great for memory improvement!

I have been taking this for a week and my memory has gotten better and it even helped regulate my sleeping!
Seems to Work
Posted by Reviewer3339977 on Jul 14, 2011
This was a gift to my brother who has some minor vertigo issues. He began taking this immediately and says he seems to be doing fine. He uses this as he practices a healthy eating lifestyle and gets appropriate sleep. It is, otherwise, too early to make a better determination of the effectiveness of the product.
Great Product

I like buying from Natural Factors with their good quality control. This product is meant to help with memory and improving brain function. Too soon to tell.

Qimonda AG, a leading supplier of advanced dynamic random access memory (DRAM), said on Thursday that it had shipped first samples of GDDR5 memory chips to its "customers". The pilot production of GDDR5 now may be an indicator that the memory company is on-track to produce the new type of GDDR next year.
"We are pleased that we can support the GDDR5 activities of our customers with this first sample shipment, which is a major step to ensure the fast introduction of GDDR5 into the graphics market," said Robert Feurle, vice president of business unit graphics at Qimonda.
GDDR5 will be available with data rates up to 20GB/s per component (5000MHz, or 5GHz, in case of a memory chip with 32-bit memory bus), which is more than double the bandwidth of the fastest GDDR3 and GDDR4 memories today and comes with a multitude of advanced power saving features.
GDDR5 is targeting a variety of applications, starting with high-performance desktop graphics cards followed by notebook graphics adapters. Later on GDDR5 may find home inside game consoles as well as inside other graphics intensive applications.
First products with GDDR5 memories are expected for 2008. Qimonda did not reveal who of the leading graphics chip designers – ATI, graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices, Intel Corp. or Nvidia Corp. – got samples of GDDR5.

Many Southern whites believed the Confederate draft favored the rich. The "twenty Negro law," for example, exempted planters with 20 or more slaves. In February 1864 that requirement was reduced to 15 slaves, and Georgian Lycurgus Rees<&ndash>who had "fifteen able-bodied slaves" <&ndash>applied for an exemption as "a Farmer or Agriculturalist." In return he agreed to furnish the Confederate War Department with 1,500 pounds of beef, bacon, or pork.

Rated 4.2 out of 5�by 46 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5�by Tweaver Product does not keep ice very long. Ice did not last a whole day in cooler. Very disappointed, especially for the price. July 28, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by fisher24 The product had great features I was very happy with this cooler and with its features. It was well built. A few days after receiving this cooler I was at my local Dix store purchasing some fishing gear. I noticed another igloo cooler on sale for the same price I paid for the one i purchased on-line, however, it did not seem built as well, but it did have wheels, and a retractable handle. Being 68 years old, I thought it was worth the trade off. I returned the one I received on line and made an even trade for the wheeled cooler. Another happy customer February 1, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by KKbear Great marine cooler Gave this to my boyfriend for Christmas as a replacement for an igloo cooler he had for 20 years, so its a name you can trust and a quality cooler. The newer version has even better metal hinges! January 11, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5�by Racheln13 Not too bad for the price Doesn't keep things "cold" for 3 days like it says. Wasn't all that hot, and the ice melted to complete liquid after ~24 hours. Water was cool, not cold around 3 days. September 23, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Jonesy17 Great cooler for the price This cooler was awesome on our gulf trip-not too big that it couldn't be carried; sturdy enough to be the extra seat we needed; food/beer was cold for 2 days outdoors(high 90's); measuring gage on the top saved several redfish to fight another day! Very utilitarian hardworking cooler-I would buy it again. August 20, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Momike707 Great cooler Keep the beers nice and cold in the hot sunny weekend. August 4, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5�by 90degreeCamper Excellent Cooler This is a 3 day cooler. It actually held ice for the 3 days I used it. There was considerable melting, but nothing like the regular coolers used by others on the camping trip. It got everything in the cooler extremely cold and maintained the cold until the end. Seems well built and held up fine. July 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by Danno75 Keeps ice longer Like this cooler a lot, keeps ice longer than most and a good size for plenty of food and drinks. July 21, 2015

Rated 4 out of 5�by MtkBob Keepin it Cool ! Purchased this cooler for weekend camping trips. Perfect size for our needs and it does what Igloo says, kept the ice for 3 days. The cooler was full and carrying it was not an issue with the type of handle they installed. Great buy at this price. June 24, 2015

How can there even be a society if no one can see reality for what it is? How can there be a society if no one wants to be told what reality really is?
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
12/2/2012 (4 years ago)
Published in Year of Faith
Keywords: sunday homilies, homily, homilies, father james farfaglia, advent, christmas, sacrament of confession, sin, second coming, pope benedict
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - The first Sunday of Advent marks the beginning of a new liturgical year.Â
Since we are about to celebrate Christmas, we would suppose that the new liturgical year would begin chronologically with a reflection on the Incarnation. However, that is not the case.
The reason why the liturgical year ends and begins with the same theme is clear: if we have already embraced Jesus in his first coming, we will have no fear of his second coming.Â
As the world around us prepares for Christmas with an ever increasing emphasis on material things, the Church directs our gaze toward the spiritual.
The liturgical calendar begins differently from the secular calendar precisely because the Church, while in the world, is not of the world.Â
Advent challenges us to focus on our personal relationship with Jesus Christ, not on the external celebrations. The external celebrations should be seen as a visible manifestation of our joy of being disciples of Jesus Christ.
"Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more" (Thessalonians 4: 1-2).
Advent helps us examine the condition of our soul. How am I living as a disciple of Jesus Christ?
"But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare; for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man" (Luke 21: 34-36).Â
As disciples of the Lord we have so many ways to become distracted and loose our focus.Â
Our entire culture is immersed in what Pope Benedict has called "the dictatorship of relativism."
Living in our society today is like being at city intersection where everyone can see a stop light with the red, yellow and green lights.
However, everyone interprets the lights differently. Some look upon the red light and say that it is green.Â
Some look upon the yellow light and say that it is red. Others look upon the green light and say that it is red.Â
Imagine the confusion and chaos of cars, trucks and motorcycles passing through this city intersection as each driver insists that the red light is really green and that the green light is really red.Â
Moreover, each driver becomes violently angry if someone were to tell them that the red light really is red and that the green light really is green.Â
How can there even be a society if no one can see reality for what it is? How can there be a society if no one wants to be told what reality really is?
So many baptized Catholics are cohabitating before they become married and they expect the priest and everyone else to accept the way they are living their lives. What's the big deal? We love each other they claim.Â
How many times does the Catholic Church lovingly remind us about the importance of the Sacrament of Confession, and so many priests sit in empty confessionals patiently waiting and waiting and waiting.
Saint Alphonsus Liguori once wrote: "God is ready to heal those who sincerely wish to amend their lives, but cannot take pity on the obstinate sinner. The Lord pardons sins, but He cannot pardon those who are determined to offend Him. He who receives pardon is pardoned through the pure mercy of God, and they who are chastised, are justly punished. But, God is not obliged to wait for your repentance."
The dictatorship of relativism demands that there is no sin because truth is what I make it to be.Â
If I think that abortion is OK, then it is OK. If I think that gay marriage is OK, then it is OK. If I think that contraception is OK, then it is OK. If I think that sex before marriage is OK, then that is OK too.Â
Advent is a time to wake up.
Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is the criteria and the measure of how we are to live our lives. He spells it out for us in the Gospels. He shows us clearly the path that we are to follow.Â
Pope Benedict has called us to celebrate a year of faith. He has reminded us of the existence of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. It is there, in the Catechism that we will discover the what and the why of Catholic teaching.Â
The teachings of the Catholic Church are not a collection of opinions and personal interpretations subject to constant change.Â
Pope Benedict said: "Today, having a clear faith based on the Creed of the Church is often labeled as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism, that is, letting oneself be 'tossed here and there, carried about by every wind of doctrine,' seems the only attitude that can cope with modern times. We are building a dictatorship of relativism that does not recognize anything as definitive and whose ultimate goal consists solely of one's own ego and desires.
We, however, have a different goal: the Son of God, the true man. He is the measure of true humanism. An 'adult' faith is not a faith that follows the trends of fashion and the latest novelty; a mature adult faith is deeply rooted in friendship with Christ. It is this friendship that opens us up to all that is good and gives us a criterion by which to distinguish the true from the false, and deceit from truth.
We must develop this adult faith; we must guide the flock of Christ to this faith. And it is this faith - only faith - that creates unity and is fulfilled in love."
In order to persevere in these challenging times, we must nourish our faith with the Scriptures, the Eucharist, the Rosary and contemplative prayer.
A daily encounter with the power of God will give us the ability to live with interior peace.
We can easily tire of the struggle.
Personally, IÂ believe it is far better to drag an exhausted body and spirit through the difficulties of life, rather than to give in to the promptings of the flesh which make us yearn for an easier life.
Rather than to give in to the sirens of comfort, I prefer to hear these words from my Lord at the moment of death: "I know too that you have perseverance, and have suffered for my name without growing tired" (Revelation 2: 3).
This Advent season gives us a fresh opportunity to look at our lives and deepen our relationship with the Lord Jesus who has come already in humility and who will come again in glory.Â

5 Stocks Poised for Big Breakouts
One example of a successful breakout trade I recently flagged was Under Armour (UA), which I featured in April 1's "5 Stocks Poised for Breakouts" at around $51 a share. I mentioned in that piece that UA was modestly uptrending for the prior month, which was bullish technical price action. I pointed out that the uptrend for Under Armour was quickly pushing the stock within range of triggering a breakout trade above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $51.46 to $51.75 a share and then above its 200-day moving average at $51.95 a share.
>>5 Stocks Under $10 Set to Soar
Guess what happened? Shares of UA didn't wait long to trigger that breakout, since the stock took out all of those resistance levels within a few days. Shares continued to soar higher the rest of the month, hitting a recent high of $58.52 a share. That represents a solid gain in a very short timeframe -- and it shows just how powerful breakout trading can be.
Keep in mind, though, that not all breakout trades are going to work, which is why you have to manage to risk at all times when trading this strategy.
Breakout candidates are something that I tweet about on a daily basis. I frequently tweet out high-probability setups, breakout plays and stocks that are acting technically bullish. These are the stocks that often go on to make monster moves to the upside. What's great about breakout trading is that you focus on trend, price and volume. You don't have to concern yourself with anything else. The charts do all the talking.
>>5 Big Names to Trade for Earnings Season
Trading breakouts is not a new game on Wall Street. This strategy has been mastered by legendary traders such as William O'Neal, Stan Weinstein and Nicolas Darvas. These pros know that once a stock starts to break out above past resistance levels and hold above those breakout prices, then it can easily trend significantly higher.
With that in mind, here's a look at five stocks that are setting up to break out and trade higher from current levels.

Speaking today at the United Nations headquarters in New York, Secretary Clinton said, "...Yesterday marked a milestone in the history of Sudan. Voters from Southern Sudan began lining up to register for the referendum by which they will decide their own future. Holding this referendum, resolving the status of Abyei, and all of the conditions of the CPA represent the promise of self-determination made to the Sudanese people under the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. The United States believes that these are promises that must be kept. It is critical to peace and stability, not only for Sudan but also for the neighbors, some of whom are here today, and the rest of Africa represented by others, that the referendum for Southern Sudan be held peacefully and on time on January 9th. And regardless of the outcome, the will of the people must be respected by all parties in Sudan and around the world.
"...In the next 55 days, the Government of Sudan can ensure a brighter future, one that does offer peace, opportunity, and hope. But there is a huge amount of work to be done in these next 55 days. And I agree completely with Minister Karti and with Mr. Amum; each member state must do its utmost to help. None of us should look back and wish we had done more. As President Obama has said, although no outsider can dictate events on the ground in Sudan, it is up to the political leaders and the people of Sudan whether they will choose peace or confrontation. But it is up to all of us to help them not only make the right choice but then to implement it to the benefit of all their people.
"It was particularly heartening last week to see the defense ministers from Khartoum and Juba hold a rare joint press conference to say that no matter what differences and disputes might arise from the referendum process, they will be resolved through political dialogue. The minister said, and I quote, 'There will be no return to war.' And we all fervently hope that is the case.
"But to fulfill that promise, the North and South must promptly forge agreements on the crucial issues that will arise in 2011: oil revenue distribution, border demarcation, international treaties, security arrangements, citizenship rights, and the protection of vulnerable civilians, including Southerners in the North and Northerners in the South. The fate of 44 million Sudanese depends on their leaders' willingness to work together to resolve these issues.
"Most urgently, the parties must make the tough compromises necessary to settle the status of Abyei. They must find a way forward that both upholds the rights of the Ngok Dinka and the other residents of Abyei as well as the nomadic peoples like the Misseriya who regularly pass through the area. And they must do so promptly because preparations for the referendum on Abyei have fallen behind schedule and tensions will continue to rise.
"The Comprehensive Peace Agreement agreed to by both parties calls for this referendum. It also states that the parties themselves can agree to change it. However, unless the parties reach a mutual agreement that is acceptable to all the people of Abyei, the United States and the international community will continue to hold them to their commitment to an on-time referendum, as promised in the CPA.
"But even as we focus on the future of Southern Sudan, Abyei, and all of Sudan, we remain deeply concerned about Darfur. Violence is intensifying, human rights violations continue, arms flow despite the embargo, journalists and activists are arrested -- some merely for speaking to members of this Security Council -- UN peacekeepers are kidnapped. This is all unacceptable.
"The United States stands ready to work with the Council to support peace efforts in Darfur and we call on all parties to participate in the Doha talks without delay or preconditions. We urge the government not to target civilians or use proxy militia or support the Janjaweed and other irregular forces, or prevent freedom of movement of UN personnel and aid workers. In Darfur and elsewhere, the Government of Sudan must live up to its international obligations to respect human rights; to allow humanitarian assistance; to protect civilians, including victims of sexual violence; to ensure that refugees and internally displaced people can return in safety and with dignity; and to bring those responsible for atrocities to justice.
"...Now, as we plan this effort, it is essential to include women. It's unusual that I'm the only woman at the table for the Security Council, so speaking on behalf of all women, let me just say that women are critical to every step of building, negotiating, and keeping the peace in Sudan. Lasting peace and prosperity will not be achieved if half the population is excluded from that process. In country after country, as we discussed with the implementation of Resolution 1325, we have seen that the underlying issues that cause conflicts are more likely to recur and less likely to be resolved if women are not involved at the peace table. In both the North and the South, we certainly hope that women will be brought in to the highest levels of government.
"...To demonstrate our commitment to improving U.S.-Sudanese relations, the United States has already taken two steps. First, we have changed our policies to ease the sale of agricultural and irrigation equipment to Sudan, which will boost food production and decrease the need for international food aid. Second, to help Sudan's economy grow, the United States has supported the creation of a group to work on ways to ease Sudan's national debt, consistent with international debt relief practices.
"Now, these are steps we've already taken, but we are prepared to do much more. If the Government of Sudan fulfills the CPA, if it resolves the future of Abyei, if it holds Southern Sudan's referendum on January 9th and then recognizes the will of the Sudanese people in the South, then the United States is prepared to begin the process of withdrawing Sudan from our list of state sponsors of terrorism. This would be done in accordance with our laws on terrorism. If the Government of Sudan commits to a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Darfur and takes other steps toward peace and accountability, the Obama Administration is prepared to offer Sudan a path to the ending of U.S. sanctions, working toward international debt relief, increasing trade and investment, and forging a mutually beneficial relationship.
"We are well aware that it takes not only skill, but courage for Sudan's leaders in both the North and the South to implement the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, to promote dignity and human rights, to ease suffering and work toward a durable peace, and to include in that peace Darfur. But the world will stand with both of you if you can and do take these steps. We think that the path to peace and prosperity, to good neighborliness, to partnership and cooperation for all Sudanese is clear. It is up to the Government of Sudan, it is up to the SPLM in the South to decide whether to walk that path. If it does, the United States stands ready to assist you and, most importantly, to assist the next generation of Sudanese children so that they can have a future without war and conflict."

Ashland commercial fire restrictions relaxed
While fire danger in Southern Oregon remains extreme, some commercial restrictions have been relaxed to allow a wider window to work.
While public fire restrictions remain the same, commercial equipment operators have had industrial precautions changed to level 2, thanks to cooler temperatures and higher humidity.
The relaxing of commercial restrictions affects equipment operating in or within one eighth of a mile of the wildfire hazard zone in the city limits of Ashland
