Can Paraguay Hurt Monsanto and Rio Tinto?
Calla is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In June, the Paraguayan legislature used questionable administrative procedures to impeach President Lugo in 24 hours, in what analysts call a "constitutional coup." Vice president Frederico Franco, who had withdrawn his support from Lugo prior to impeachment and belongs to a different party, assumed the presidency. President Franco has since used a tenuous agreement with the dominant Colorado party to pass legislation that stalled under Lugo. The Economist and Business Week tout the ways in which the Franco administration is developing Paraguay. I argue that many of Franco's moves look good at first glance but hide big long-term risks for both Paraguayans and multinational companies, particularly Rio Tinto (NYSE: RIO) and Monsanto (NYSE: MON).
What has Franco Done?
Within a few months of taking office, Franco passed the country's first income tax, resumed stalled negotiations with Rio Tinto over a $4 billion aluminum plant, and approved sales of genetically modified soy beans from Monsanto. The tax is an important if symbolic step; it is expected to affect only the richest 40,000 people. To restart business with Rio Tinto and Monsanto, Franco simply waived required feasibility, environmental impact, and other preliminary regulations.
The Problem
The hasty legislation does away with safeguards. While waiving requirements removed bureaucratic slowdowns and sidestepped some excessive regulations and paperwork, it also removed basic, industry-approved steps. The goal of impact studies and other safeguards is to catch potential problems early and devise solutions, which are often costly, to preventing future problems. Cutting corners on these steps in order to save money upfront preceded some of the biggest and most expensive corporate disasters, according to a Linkoping University study. With Paraguay's small role in Monsanto and Rio Tinto's revenues, any future problems could quickly erase the upfront savings.
Rio Tinto projects that it will spend $4 billion on an aluminum plant in Paraguay. The plant would likely replace closed and struggling aluminum smelters in New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom, where falling aluminum prices and rising energy rates have plagued Rio Tinto's aluminum business. The Paraguay plant would be comparatively cheap and the company will likely get energy below market rates and tax credits for years if not decades to come. The plant is an important, if not the most important, project for Rio Tinto's aluminum division. Yet in the grand scheme of Rio Tinto's international operations, aluminum operations contribute 6% to overall cash flow. The Paraguay plant is one of many medium-sized capital projects that will be responsible for a tiny slice of global revenue.
For Monsanto, the Franco administration simply did away with government and corporate due diligence and are set to approve modified soy, corn, and cotton seeds this month. The expected revenues are tiny compared to Monsanto's total revenue: an estimated $30 million dollars out of $14.6 billion for fiscal year 2013. Soy bean crop expansion is already a tinderbox of conflict in largely agricultural Paraguay because it violently pits a tiny ranching elite and foreign agribusiness against the small-holder majority.
Get Worried
Governments require and companies elect to do studies on environmental impacts, consult local communities, and install safety equipment that usually goes unused because these checks cost less – in suffering as well as monetary terms -- than cleaning up preventable disasters. By doing away with safeguards, Franco scored quick political points with local businessmen and corporate middlemen hoping to close a deal or meet yearly quotas. But should anything preventable go wrong – if pollution from the aluminum plant leaks into the aquifer shared with Brazil and Argentina or if new pesticides increase children's cancer rates – companies face costly lawsuits, international public relations campaigns, and backlashes from the next administration. Elected leaders in Ecuador, Bolivia, and Argentina have recently capitalized on widespread anger by nationalizing operations and expelling multinationals accused of dangerous practices that saved money; the same could happen to Rio Tinto or Monsanto in Paraguay. Cutting corners in a small, poor country makes little difference on a multinational's annual income statement, but in a world of international media and networks, preventable disasters are expensive scandals.

User Reviews
The community thinks...
very dependable by arctic driver on 04/28/2011. Trim: 2006 Toyota Matrix XR 4WD, Owned 5 years.
Pros: In 5 years of owning this vehicle I have never had one problem with it. It's good on gas and fairly roomy for a smaller car, comfortable even on long drives.
Cons: It's not a big thing but of course with a small 1.8 litre engine if you have 4 people and luggage loaded you can tell the engine is really working to keep up on hills,etc. But just for everyoday driving it is more than ample powerwise.
Overall review: We really like this car and have told ourselves many times what a good buy it was.

Michael Witz woke up to find his truck on fire in his driveway. He says he knows the people that did it - and so do Brownstown police - but they have taken no action.Witz says he bought rims and tires on Craigslist and, a two days after mounting them, was stopped by a man who claimed the rims belonged to him. The man said the rims were stolen out of his yard. Witz asked the man to show proof of ownership and even offered to go to the police station. The man had no proof and did not want to go to the police, and Witz says the man told him there would be "repercussions."Witz believes the man followed him home so they could eventually torch his truck. Witz obtained video from his neighborhood that he believes shows two suspects hopping in a getaway car and driving off after setting his truck on fire. Witz says police told him they received a confession from two people, but have not arrested anyone. Witz says what he wants most is his truck to be replaced.

Product Information
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Kraang Lab Escape from LEGO
- Part of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand
- We recommend this product for ages 5 and up
What It Is
The new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles CG-animated series on Nickelodeon has become a huge hit, and now fans of the new show can build the Turtles' world off-screen with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle building sets from LEGO.
The Kraang Lab Escape set comes with 90 pieces that lets kids build an exciting environment and create scenarios in which the Turtles give the villains the slip with a hot slice of turtle power. The Kraang has Michelangelo locked tight in a laser-shield prison inside the lab. Kids build the lab and then slide Michelangelo's leftover pizza through the prison bars to make the Foot Soldier slip and fall. Then, activate the explosion function on the prison to help Michelangelo escape. Once free, Michelangelo must battle The Kraang in his mech walker with dual laser flick missiles. The walker's legs can be detached to turn it into a flying escape pod. The set includes three minifigures: Michelangelo, a Foot Soldier, and The Kraang.
Is It Fun?
This set offers lots of opportunities for exciting Turtles play. Kids will like all the moving parts and details, especially the pizza accessory that can be used as a weapon. Whether kids are playing out scenes from the TV show or creating their own adventures, the Kraang Lab Escape set will engage kids in lots of imaginative play.
Who It's For
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Kraang Lab Escape building set is for TMNT fans ages 5–12.
The set is designed for kids who like to mix construction play with traditional action figure play and who, of course, are TMNT fans.
What To Be Aware Of
This set took us 15 minutes to build, and the instructions were very easy to follow. No matter how long it takes your child to build, remember that building is part of the fun and play of LEGO.

Lyme disease
Lyme disease is an inflammatory disease spread through a tick bite.
This article offers a general overview on Lyme disease. For specific information, see:
Alternative Names
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi). Certain ticks carry these bacteria. The ticks pick up the bacteria when they bite mice or deer that are infected with Lyme disease. You can get the disease if you are bitten by an infected tick.
Lyme disease was first reported in the United States in the town of Old Lyme, Connecticut, in 1975. Cases have now been reported in most parts of the United States. Most of the cases occur in the Northeast, some parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin, the mid-Atlantic states, and along the Pacific coast. Lyme disease is usually seen during the late spring, summer, and early fall.
There are 3 stages of Lyme disease.
- Stage 1 is called primary Lyme disease.
- Stage 2 is called secondary Lyme disease and early disseminated Lyme disease.
- Stage 3 is called tertiary Lyme disease and chronic persistant Lyme disease.
Risk factors for Lyme disease include:
- Doing activities that increase tick exposure (for example, gardening, hunting, or hiking)
- Having a pet that may carry ticks home
- Walking in high grasses
Not everyone infected with these bacteria gets ill. If a person does become ill, the first symptoms resemble the flu and include:
- Chills
- Fever
- Headache
- Lethargy
- Muscle pain
There may be a "bulls eye" rash, a flat or slightly raised red spot at the site of the tick bite. Often there is a clear area in the center. It can be larger than 1 - 3 inches wide.
Symptoms in people with the later stages of the disease include:
- Body-wide itching
- Joint inflammation
- Stiff neck
- Unusual or strange behavior
Note: Deer ticks can be so small that they are almost impossible to see. Many people with Lyme disease never even saw a tick.
Signs and tests
A blood test can be done to check for antibodies to the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. The most commonly used is the ELISA for Lyme disease test. A western blot test is done to confirm ELISA results.
A physical exam may show joint, heart, or brain problems in people with advanced Lyme disease.
Everyone who has been bitten by a tick should be watched closely for at least 30 days.
Most people who are bitten by a tick do NOT get Lyme disease.
A single dose of antibiotics may be offered to someone soon after being bitten by a tick, if all of the following are true:
- The person has a tick that can carry Lyme disease attached to their body. This usually means that a nurse or physician has looked at and identified the tick.
- The tick is thought to have been attached to the person for at least 36 hours.
- The person can begin taking the antibiotics within 72 hours of removing the tick.
- The person is over 8 years old and is not pregnant or breastfeeding.
A full course of antibiotics is used to treat people who are proven to have Lyme disease. The specific antibiotic used depends on the stage of the disease and the symptoms.
See also:
Anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofen, are sometimes prescribed to relieve joint stiffness.
Expectations (prognosis)
If diagnosed in the early stages, Lyme disease can be cured with antibiotics. Without treatment, complications involving the joints, heart, and nervous system can occur.
Rarely, a person will continue having symptoms that can interfere with daily life. Some people call this post-Lyme disease syndrome. There is no effective treatment yet for this syndrome.
Advanced stages of Lyme disease can cause long-term joint inflammation (Lyme arthritis) and heart rhythm problems. Nervous system (neurological) problems are also possible, and may include:
- Decreased concentration
- Memory disorders
- Nerve damage
- Numbness
- Pain
- Paralysis of the face muscles
- Sleep disorders
- Vision problems
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of Lyme disease.
When walking or hiking in wooded or grassy areas:
- Spray all exposed skin and your clothing with insect repellant (spray outdoors only, do not use on face, use just enough to cover all other exposed skin, don't spray under clothing, don't apply over wounds or irritated skin, wash skin after going inside)
- Wear light-colored clothing to make it easier to spot ticks
- Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants with the cuffs tucked into shoes or socks
- Wear high boots, preferably rubber
Check yourself and your pets frequently during and after your walk or hike.
Ticks that carry Lyme disease are so small that they are very hard to see. After returning home, remove your clothes and thoroughly inspect all skin surface areas, including your scalp.

Series status: Has not been cancelled
Performers include: David Walton, Minnie Driver, Benjamin Stockham, and Al Madrigal.
TV show description:
A coming-of-age story, this TV show is based on the best-selling novel by Nick Hornby.
After writing a hit song, Will Freeman (David Walton) didn't have to worry about working ever again. It brought him a life of free time, free love, and freedom from financial woes. He's single, unemployed and loving it. He's seen how the other half live through his best friend — Andy (Al Madrigal), a thoroughly whipped stay-at-home dad — and wants no part of it.
Things get interesting when needy single mom Fiona (Minnie Driver) and her oddly charming 11-year-old son, Marcus (Benjamin Stockham), move in next door to Will and disrupt his perfect world.
When Marcus begins dropping by his home unannounced, Will's not so sure about being a kid's new best friend — until Will discovers that women find single dads irresistible. That changes everything and a deal is made: Marcus will pretend to be Will's son and in return, Marcus is allowed to chill at Will's house — playing Ping-Pong and gorging on steaks, something his very vegan mom would never allow.
Before he knows it, Will starts to enjoy the visits and even finds himself looking out for the kid. In fact, this newfound friendship starts to teach him a few things about himself and about caring for others.

Senior Consultant Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks - interviewed at Deloitte in July 2014.
The first time ever I was approached by Deloitte (Hyderabad) for an interview was back in 2012. The HR called me, asked for details and fixed a telephonic round next day. There was no call after that.
Another HR called me a week or two later, with the same promise. There was no call again.
Third time, I laughed off the HR who called making the same offer.
In short, a rather unprofessional bunch. I had to refuse every other consultant who came calling after.
Another of the rounds happened during the last month - July 2014. First they called me out of the blue asking for a telephonic round. While reluctant, I gave them a chance. Same story happened all over again. No call whatsoever.
Second time, they called again. Trying to be reasonable I gave them another chance on the condition, they make a written confirmation on email. While there was no confirmation, this was the first time I got a technical round call. I told the interviewer to reschedule because I was not informed of the interview. His response was - Deloitte is very busy hiring people so there will be a slim chance of a reschedule. I said I was ok with it, if I dint get a chance to work with Deloitte for their own unprofessional-ism. The interviewer said he will talk to HR and get back to me.
Third time, I waited for the call. It came 40 mins after the scheduled time. Finally I did have a technical round but it lasted only 20 mins. (I gave 1 hr gap between interview and the meeting and given they called 40 mins after scheduled time, I could only give them 20 more mins).
Fourth time, I again got a call which lasted 2 mins because the HR had scheduled me for an interview which was not my core technology.
Fifth time, there was no call even after 20 mins the schedule time. HR was apologetic and asked for a reschedule.
Sixth time, was the time which finally broke my patience. There was again no call at the scheduled time and I gave the HR a piece of my mind.
Normally a person shouldn't give these many chances to companies which are totally unprofessional in their behaviour. They treat their time as gold and interviewee's as not worth anything.
My advice stay away from the company which treats people like this.
- As I never really got a chance to interview properly, there weren't any difficult or unexpected question. Answer Question

This post is related to Deloitte India IT consulting division
They conducted 2 rounds of interview. 1st round was telephonic interview (HR asked for f2f interview but I requested for telephonic to which they agreed), mostly technical and questions asked were in detailed related to core technology.

2 days after my telephonic interview, HR confirmed me about my selection and scheduled 2nd round.
2nd round was partner round. They did it through video conferencing and I was called to Deloitte office to attend interview. This round was mostly a personality check and questions asked were mostly related to two areas

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took a day - interviewed at Deloitte in January 2013.Interview Details
Interview was for a Senior Consultant with Technology arm of Deloitte. in the order - 2 Technical rounds, Versant test, Business Round, HR round.
Technical rounds were superficial, don't expect that programming questions or knowledge of frameworks will be asked.
Second round interviewer suddenly stopped asking questions right after hearing the current salary and expectation from Deloitte. Instead of admitting that Deloitte is not looking for people with strong technical skills with deserving compensation, interviewer suggested me to look for entry level position with IB* or Accent* so that I can learn "consulting". Wanted me to be happy with my last year's compensation. Waste of my Saturday morning.Interview Questions

Glass buildings can provide an appealing environment of light and roguelephant.com openness, but too much sunlight will over heat the building, as well as creating glare. While conventional shades can be used to control light levels, a new option is to use a low power material attached to the glass that can quickly adjust to increase shading or let more light in as needed.
As shown by their presentation, the shading system developed by designers Decker Yeadon can be installed in an organic configuration to highlight the biomimetic nature of this material. These shades use a dielectric elastomer, which is stressed and changes configuration when a charge is applied. When actuated with a low-power electric charge, tension in the dielectric increases, which causes it to contract. As it does so, it pulls on cheapest viagra the we recommend order levitra from canada flexible polymer core inside it, causing the assembly to online pharmacy spread open and increase the shading.
The video clip demonstrates how it works with a sample section of the material that looks something like a butterfly opening and closing its wings. The dielectric surfaces of the material are coated with silver which acts as a conductor for the low power current needed to activate the material, as well as being an excellent reflector of sunlight to provide rejection of excessive daylight when acting as a shade.
The presentation implies that the actuation of purchasing cialis the shading material is automatic, though it is africa-info.org unclear whether this is an inherent property of the material itself (which seems to be implied, but is not directly stated) or whether there is an external system controller that applies a charge when the mexico levitra system is to be activated. In either case, the fact that the system requires low power makes it an intriguing option. And since "the shade is the motor," very localized control is possible with the material.
This system is intended for use inside a double-wall glazing system, presumably because it is far too delicate to be exposed to weather if it was exposed on the outside of a building. Because of this, it is unlikely to be a widely adopted solution, but it does represent a first step with an intriguing material that has many potential uses beyond just green buildings.

Tough 10th street tenacity triumphs
The tenacity of 10th Street residents has paid off. Attending every city council meeting for the last month, a collection of residents tired of driving through a lake in the rainy months has convinced Blaine city council that their street should be at the top of the list when it comes to rebuilding residential streets.
"10th needs to go first," said city council member Bonnie Onyon at the June 28 city council meeting, when council voted unanimously to approve the city's six-year transportation plan. The plan lists the reconstruction of Marine Drive, a new downtown interchange design and 10th Street as the top three city transportation priorities. Cherry Street reconstruction moved from the number three to the number four spot
Public works director Steve Banham said he expects construction on 10th Street to start in 2005, paid for by the last of the funds from the 1996 residential street levy.
Banham said if there is any money left it will go to Cherry Street the next year, a project he hopes can also get a grant through the state Transportation Improvement Board. Otherwise that project will have to wait. "We hope if we go for another street levy residents of 10th Street will support the same thing for other streets," suggested mayor Dieter Schugt.

Chicago-based True Value Co. is in the early stages of the launch of its Discover credit card program, and expectations are high, according to the co-op.
Expanding a credit card program while promoting a "stabilized" loyalty card program were among the payment system priorities the Chicago-based co-op presented during its Fall Market in Utah.
The True Value Co. is asking members to sign up now for a credit card program it intends to launch in 2013.
Even though he's appearing on a prime time, national television commercial, Beyond Hardware True Value owner Matt Shapiro hasn't gone Hollywood.
"I have to admit, I did very little besides show up and read my lines," he said.
In his first market presentation to True Value retailers, the co-op's new VP marketing and chief customer officer Blake Fohl laid out a plan for -- what else? -- improved marketing.
He also promised improvements to True Value Rewards (TVR).

ZIP Codes - Key Concepts
- ZIP Codes are categories for grouping mailing addresses and are not exact geographic regions.
- The centroid of a ZIP Code may be in one County and the associated city/town in another.
- In rural areas, a single ZIP Code may be used for cities and towns in several different Counties.
- ZIP Code "areas" can overlap, be subsets of each other, or be artificial constructs with no geographic area.
- ZIP Codes are only loosely tied to cities.
1 Keeping the above key concepts in mind, what we informally refer to as the "center" of a ZIP Code is most often actually the centroid of a polygon.

The NHL is back, and the Oilers play their first game post-Olympics. Based on what we saw last night, expect skating in porridge for the first period and then some exciting play in the final 40. On December 27, the Oilers were 39GP, 12-24-3. In the 21 games since, Edmonton is 8-9-4. In their last 10: 5-3-2.
In recent days, Oilers coach Dallas Eakins and GM Craig MacTavish have gone out of their way to mention Justin Schultz as a trending player. MacT said he'd get after a Schultz contract in the days after the trade deadline; Eakins mentioned two players by name during the STH event (Schultz, Nuge) as having quietly improved their game over the season.
There is no blue bubble here on the 19th of December. Justin Schultz is in the easy corridor and getting positive zone starts, while also delivering a bubble that isn't close to blue. That's not a good thing—and by eye Schultz struggled during the first half of the season.
The color is the same, but he's moved up a quadrant to 'two-way' and is clearly facing tougher competition. I wonder this: why no mention by Eakins or MacTavish about the new blue moon Marincin? Surely any fool can see (by eye, by math or by sledge) the Marincin-Petry pairing is running the heavy heavy fuel and lifting the biggest boulder.
Ales Hemsky is leaving town soon, after spending the most bizarre post-SCF coda imaginable in our fair city. Long forgotten are his contributions to a winning team, 83 is looked upon with pity or sadness or both. I'll not pity Hemsky, but rather rejoice if he finds a new town and breathes the clean air of top 6F minutes and power-play time. The Oilers under MacT are about to get a big one wrong in the name of draft picks.
Let's say the Oilers trade Hemmer to St. Louis for their first round pick (and we'll spot it at #29 overall). That would give the club the following picks:
- #2 overall
- #29 overall
- #116 overall
- #122 overall
- #152 overall
- #182 overall
All the info is here. This kind of transaction can be a real setback. Marco Roy is the payment for Andrew Cogliano, and despite some nice things his injuries this season are going to make him more of a long shot to ever make the NHL. Beyond that, it's extremely unlikely he'll cover the Cogs bet. That's what we're dealing with here. The only reason I can see to justify Hemsky's exit for draft picks is:
- his refusal to sign an extension
- the Oilers exhaustive search for a more NHL ready option finds nothing
There's no way to know those things are true, and I don't believe they can afford to keep him through the season and see him walk. However, a draft pick—even #29 overall—is a distant bell. The question that comes after dealing Hemsky for a pick: who replaces him? Back come the answers: on Pitlick, on Horak, on Jones, on Hendricks.
The sky is crying.
10 this morning on TSN 1260, we hit the air with a terrific lineup. Scheduled to appear:
- Dennis King, Oilogosphere icon. Olympics, Hemsky trade, the youngsters.
- Guy Flaming, Pipeline Show. Guy had Dillon Simpson on his show recently, and got a clear indication about how the UND star is leaning as he comes out of college. We'll discuss that story and the 2014 draft.
- Alan Hull, Copper and Blue. We'll set the stage for the Oil-Wild tonight,and talk about the deadline.
- Harrison Mooney, Puck Daddy and Pass it to Bulis. Kesler moving? Canucks playoffs? Indoor/outdoor game?
10-1260 via text, @Lowetide_ on twitter. It'll be fun!

A bill that could require moped and other scooter drivers to have insurance was approved by a North Carolina Senate committee Wednesday.
House Bill 1145 was approved by the House last week. That version of the bill would require moped drivers to get registration and titles for their scooters, but the amended version recently approved by the Senate Committee would require these drivers to have insurance as well.
The bill also suggests that regulation of mopeds should be studied further, and it's expected to be voted on by the Senate this week.
Owner of Matthews scooter dealer 'Carolina Fun Machines' Tim Juntgen says that a similar bill presents itself every year around this time. In the six years he's been selling scooters, he's never seen a bill like this actually pass.
Juntgen says he understands the push for moped insurance, but he believes requiring scooter drivers to have licenses, registration and titles would make life very difficult for the ones who use that mode of transportation to get to and from work.
He says many people choose scooters or mopeds as their primary mode of transportation because they're unable to get a license for any number of reasons. These people might be at risk of unemployment if this proposed regulation is actually implemented.

BANGUI, Central African Republic — The United Nations is taking over from an African peacekeeping mission trying to stabilize Central African Republic.
As of Monday, about 1,500 more troops are joining the existing force of 4,800 African soldiers currently in the country ravaged by sectarian fighting.
Human rights groups note though this is only a little over half of what was authorized by the U.N. Security Council back in April.
The U.N. says the force will reach its full capacity sometime early next year, and says it hasn't been easy to amass the troops and equipment needed for the mission.
Central African Republic exploded into violence last December. More than 5,000 people have died over the last nine months, according to an Associated Press tally.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I wanted to send 'save the date' postcards and I was thrilled with all the options weddingpaperdivas.com had to offer. We chose the "Tea for Two" postcard because it offered several different color choices for the roses around the photo, one of which was yellow (my fiancee and I had a lovely picture of the two of us surround by yellow roses.) There were so many font options to chose from so we were able to design one that was just our style. Our friends and family absolutely loved it!"
"We didn't have the opportunity to take engagement photos but still wanted something that would feel personal. This was perfect for us! "Outdoorsy", simple, fun, but elegant. The paper quality is great and the image is exactly what I expected it to be. The only thing I would say is the default font for your names can be a little tricky to read at first glance; we capitalized the first letters of our first/last names, which seemed to help, but overall it's not a huge deal. I loved being able to add our return address to the envelop in a font that matched the cards, too! Overall, love these and very satisfied."
"These came in just as I expected & they even added an extra line for me so that I could add in our wedding website address. I had ordered the sample of the invitation size & was expecting something of a similar size, however, these are more the size of a post card (which will probably save us in postage)."
"The postcards just came and I couldn't be more happier! They shipped to Canada in under a week an the quality is fantastic! We will definitely ordering our invitations from Wedding Paper Divas!"
"I was very happy with the final product from this Save the Date. It was simple to submit and a great price. Came packaged very nicely. Only complaint is that the print from the post card came off on each post card on top of it. Truly, it doesn't matter since the post cards were then mailed through the postal service and probably put through the ringer."

Robert Elstone suggests new coaching staff arrivals are imminent.
Related Links
Chief Executive Officer Robert Elstone says that the appointment of a new manager at Everton will lead to inevitable changes within the first team coaching setup.
The Blues playing squad report back to Finch Farm next week to begin their pre-season work under new boss Roberto Martinez.
No additional appointments in the backroom staff have yet been made but Elstone has suggested that will change in the coming days.
"For Roberto to bring in his team is absolutely what he wants to do, and we want to support him on it," Elstone told evertontv. "We are working hard to do that and I'm hoping in the near future that Roberto will have his team.
"He is also integrating into a very strong, solid team that already exists here. There is a real spirit at Finch Farm and lot of experience. I know he will want to retain that Everton spirit but yes, he does want his own support team around him.
"We are working to make that happen and I'm sure we will succeed on that in the very near future."
With new staff set to be welcomed, Elstone concedes that members of the current coaching group will be departing Everton.
Speaking on behalf of the Club, the CEO offered his appreciation of the efforts of those who are set to move on to fresh challenges elsewhere.
"There are a lot of people who have worked phenomenally hard and one of the things I said at the general meeting was that it was a team effort," Elstone added.
"Absolutely everything about this club is a team effort, so all the success we have enjoyed coming out of Finch Farm and on the pitch at Goodison is a result of a big, positive, hardworking team of people.
"Whoever ultimately moves on to new pastures goes with our best wishes and our thanks for all their contribution they have made to Everton Football Club."

(WRCB) – A pair of bills working their way through the legislature could cost the state nearly $23 million dollars in lottery sales.
The bills, HB 3063 and companion SB 2154, seeks to make it illegal to advertise lottery sales on television, radio or billboards.
The bills, introduced by Representative John Ragan (R- Oak Ridge)in the House and Senator Jim Summerville (R- Dickson County) in the Senate, would only allow the Tennessee Education Lottery Corporation to place advertisements next to the register where the tickets are sold.
The General Assembly Fiscal Review Committee estimates the bill, if passed, could cost Tennessee $22,950,000 in lost revenue.
According to the Fiscal Review Committee, the lottery gains approximately ten dollars in revenue for every dollar they spend on advertising. [View the Fiscal Review Committee's report]
The Senate version of the bill is expected to go before the State and Local Government Committee on Tuesday.

The grounds of Lloyd & Pounds Apartments in South Pittsburg were buried after major flash flooding July 10th.
Vivian Dagnan has lived in the small complex for several years and her friend Mark Campbell was at the one-floor apartment that night. They had never heard rain coming down that hard."You could hear it. It sounded like a waterfall," recalls Campbell. "You could hear the water and the boulders bouncing against each other. It sounded like a freight train out there."
The boulders were rolling down the side of South Pittsburg Mountain into the creek running alongside the property on Prospect Street. They didn't know how bad the flooding would get."We weren't scared to start out with, but it just kept getting higher and higher," remembers Dagnan. "Then I was really scared."Water got as high as railings and front porches. The flooding also damaged a few vehicles.
Campbell and Dagnan, along with her son, daughter-in-law, and five-year-old grandson dashed inside. But it was too late to gather anything and attempt an escape in her son's van."The boulders were already behind all the vehicles. There was nobody getting out," says Campbell.
The family waited out the storm inside and thankfully the water didn't get past the door.
The buildings are operated by the city. Housing authority executive director Terry Case says his staff visited the next morning once they were able to enter the neighborhood."We didn't get a lot of water inside the houses over there," says Case. "They were more or less damp right there at the front doors which some of the neighbors cleaned up themselves."Volunteers and friends helped, too.
Case says most of the damage was to the exteriors but his office checked for mold and electrical problems to be on the safe side."We had an assessment team go in and look and they reported to me that they were okay. That is the last report that I got," says Case.He says it's an ongoing process with all public housing that was damaged inside and/or outside."We'll make sure everybody's safe and protected," Case assures.
If you haven't reported a flood-related issue at your public housing residence, Case urges you to call or visit his office.
Residents are grateful to everyone who has helped fixed what the flood left behind.
"I'd like to thank them for coming out here and cleaning it up," says Campbell.

Further proof that there is no god, Mr. Tom Six himself has taken to the twitters to announce that "The Human Centipede 3" will feature no less then 500 plus people joined together. Sometimes I wish I was never born.
The words "erotic-thriller" make me really uncomfortable. Probably because the last time I saw a movie that was considered that it had Madonna pouring hot candle wax on Willem Dafoe's nipples. But "Attachment" is apparently a new one starring beaver vet Sharon Stone and today we've learned that Tom Felton has also joined the cast as the college student who has a one night stand with a married woman played by Stone. I pray for no candle wax. Or at least no Willem Dafoe.
"Piranha 3DD" has been a bit up in the air as of late but today we've learned that Dimension Films has given the boob-sploitation romp a June 1st release date. In case you've forgotten the film will be released both in theaters and VOD on the same day. Ya know, in case you can't handle seeing that kind of stuff with an audience. You sicko.
Of the 37 horror shows coming out shortly "666 Park Avenue" is the one that actually sounds kind of interesting. The show will focus on a couple that takes over running an apartment building that houses a number of residents who've sold their souls to the D-man. Matt Miller, the guy who produced "Chuck" has just signed on as executive producer of the show. I have no idea if that's a good thing or not.
Way to think outside the box. A woman in Culver City California is dead after what appears to be suicide by chainsaw. I have no idea how you even go about doing something like that. The planning must have taken days.
"Rare Bunny With No Ears Crushed by Cameraman." It's ok to cry.
Am I the only one who goes into a fit of rage anytime he sees Eddie Van Halen on TV? Sure David Lee Roth is more annoying but Eddie... Eddie's always got that stupid smug look on his face. Oh I hate those tiny little chicklet teeth he flashes.
If you're waiting for Shawn Levy's new "Frankenstein" movie then I've got some bad news for you. The good people at Fox have decided to pass on the project based on the fact that the budget was looking to be upwards of $80 million. This sounds like a giant mistake to me. When you get the guy who made "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" you give him any amount he wants and just watch the magic unfold.
"The Thing" remake's Mary Elizabeth Winstead looks to be teaming up with "The Last Exorcism" director Daniel Stamm for a new film called "The Darkness". Winstead will play a girl babysitting her tutor's two children in a large mansion that looks to be haunted. Do you think they'll play that "I Believe In a Thing Called Love" Song during the opening credits? I hope so, that tune is always fun.
Glenn Close, Elizabeth Olsen and Tom Felton (or as I like to call them the dream team) are all confirmed for roles in Therese Raquin, a new film about a wife who murders her sickly husband with her lover so they can be together. Oh but the husband comes back to haunt them. Just like I'd do if I ever get murdered by my wife. You reading this, honey!? I'll get you!
If you liked "The Woman in Black", and I did, then you might be giddy to find out that hammer Films has picked up the rights to "Gaslight" a new Jack the Ripper film which is said to be a mix of "From Hell" and "Silence Of the Lambs". You liked both of those movies didn't you? Or at least 1? That's 50%! I can confirm you'll love 50% of this movie.
Well this is just sad. A British swingers club may be forced to shut down due to complaints from neighbors that the parties are too loud. Lets all pray that these deviants can come to some sort of agreement. Maybe use ball gags after 9pm? That should help keep things quite.
Ever wonder if those guys at the airport even actually pay attention to what you put in the little bin to be scanned? Wonder no more. They do. Just ask this guy from Chicago who tried to get 5 bags of weed through.
Written and directed by Todd Lincoln, "The Apparition" stars Ashley Greene and Sebastian Stan as a young couple who discover they are being haunted by evil spirits, that were accidentally unleashed during a college psychology experiment. The film also stars Tom Felton of Harry Potter fame. A September 9, 2011 release date is scheduled.
Will Smith is set to drop beats, old school, as he signs on to The Legend of Cain, an epic story set around the biblical brothers Cain and Able. Smith will be playing Cain, the original badboy, with a vampiric bite.
Draco Malfoy a.k.a. Tom Felton is going to branch out from his bratty bad boy ways with a role in the 20th Century Fox sequel Rise of the Apes.
Are you a fan of elaborate special edition packages for your video game fix? You may want to check out the Zombrex Edition of Deadrising 2! For a fee of $79.99, you'll get the game as well as a heap of other shwag such as pens, notepads and more.
This past weekend AMC released the full list of writers and directors that will be heading up the first six episodes of "The Walking Dead".
Salt Lake City workers received a surprise as they forced water through a damn as part of an oil spill cleanup effort. The increased pressure coming from the lake's damn forced a corpse to float to the surface.
1692 - Five Salem witches are hung for the crime of witchcraft, based primarily on the accusations of little girls who were bewitched. Eventually, the village executes a total of 20 witches.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

Frolicking through the woods pale light, elves do sing and fairies delight.
Searching for a hidden place, where pixies sing and children race.
Do beware the wicked trolls, who guard the bridge and steal your gold.
Cross the bridge and you shall find, the hidden gates once lost in time.
Read the runes in elven tongue, and the gates will open to a world still young.
Once inside you shall see, a mystical place that still remains free.
Enchanted queens with beautiful faces, who dance with grace in firm embraces.
Leprechauns count their pots of gold as wizards spin their tales of old.
Do not venture beyond this place, or goblins and orcs shall scar your face.
Winged dragons above they soar, breathing fire and loud they roar.
Venture not into the night, for banshees scream and cause you fright.
Witches mix their evil brews, and werewolves hunt in bloody broods.
So stay within the gated realm, where pleasures are many and beauty abounds.

RE "A Mass. hedge in FBI gun checks: State law prevents sharing of records on mental health" (Page A1, Jan. 28): It seems as if many of us are suddenly convinced that ONLY the mentally ill are committing all the gun violence in the country. I don't like the implications of stigmatizing mental health patients, though I realize that recent atrocities were committed by mentally defective people.
We need to think carefully about how to make and keep records of ANY population that we think could or might commit gun violence. The first group on MY list would be gun owners. Monitoring of this group should be uppermost in the minds of law enforcement and thorough enough to be both a warning and a reminder that they are being monitored.
