It seems that the SLS AMG has quickly became a hit among tuners. This is the third or fourth we have seen in the last two days. It comes from the German tuner Kicherer. Their kit is called SLS 63 CP and comes with carbon made front spoiler lip, roof, rear diffuser and larger air intakes to better cool the 6.3 liter V8 engine.
Up front the SLS features a large handcrafted front-grill made of stainless steel, which is optionally also available in a discreet gold tone. The car sits on 20" RS-1 lightweight wheels in the classic double spoke design.
At the rear the tuner added a stainless steel exhaust system with four oval end-pipes. On demand the tuner is also offering performances upgrades for the 571 hp engine.

The Spanish American War
The Spanish-American War
You take the Spanish-American War. . . . That was Mr. Kane's war. We didn't really have anything to fight about. But do you think if it hadn't been for that war of Mr. Kane's we'd have the Panama Canal?
In 1941, a muckraking biography of William Randolph Hearst opened on American movie screens. Titled Citizen Kane, this splendid film gives news- paper editor and owner Charles Foster Kane (a thinly disguised stand-in for Hearst) credit for having deliberately provoked the Spanish-American War with the inflammatory headlines in his newspapers. This was no exaggeration on the part of the filmmakers.
Born in 1863 to millionaire parents, Hearst owned major newspapers across the United States. Hearst thought like a businessman rather than like a journalist; his goal was to sell as many papers as possible, not necessarily to give the public accurate information. He had no objection to exaggerating or inventing facts in order to create sensational stories. This "yellow journalism" became the New York Journal's trademark. With what one historian later referred to as the "acme of ruthless, truthless newspaper jingoism," Hearst used the Journal to push the United States into a war with Spain.
In 1896, Cuba was trying to win its independence from Spain. Knowing that the dramatic events of the rebellion would interest his readers, Hearst encouraged his reporters to exaggerate the facts and stir up American resentment against Spain. Many Americans sympathized with the Cuban revolutionaries, who were fighting a tyrant just as the Americans themselves had once fought Great Britain. Journal stories deliberately played on this sympathy, actively pressuring the U.S. government to declare war on Spain. President McKinley resisted the pressure.
The spark that set off the war was the sudden explosion of the American battleship Maine, anchored off the Cuban coast in case its crew should be needed to protect American property or lives. What caused the ship to blow up is still unknown; independent investigations at the time suggested that it might have been either accident or an underwater mine. Few people seriously believed that it was an act of war on Spain's part, since Spanish diplomats had been working hard to avoid an all-out war with the United States. Ignoring the facts, Hearst put the story of the Maine on the front page for several days, with headlines such as:
With the people clamoring for action, McKinley felt that he had no choice but to reject Spain's request for a peace agreement. On April 25, 1898, Congress declared war. It would be fought on three fronts: in Cuba, in Puerto Rico, and in the Philippines, which served at the time as a Spanish naval base.
Commodore George Dewey led a fleet of American warships from the coast of Hong Kong to the Philippines a few days after Congress declared war. The American ships easily overpowered the Spanish fleet guarding the Manila harbor. The Filipinos had been rebelling against Spanish rule for two years and were easily enlisted to help the Americans conquer Manila. The war in the Philippines ended in August 1898.
Unlike the navy, which had covered itself with glory in the Philippines, the army was not adequately prepared for a land war in Cuba. The United States did not maintain a large standing army in peacetime, and the only uniforms the soldiers were supplied with were made of heavy wool—highly unsuitable for the tropical climate of Cuba.
Theodore Roosevelt had joined the army, which placed him in command of a cavalry unit nicknamed the Rough Riders, whose goal was to capture the high ground above the city of Santiago. The Rough Riders charged up San Juan Hill under a hail of Spanish bullets, and had control of the high ground by night- fall. The U.S. Navy sank the entire Spanish fleet off the coast of Cuba, and the war ended two weeks later when Spain surrendered. Fighting in Puerto Rico had already ended. The United States agreed to pay Spain $20 million for the Philippines, Cuba gained its independence from Spain, and Spain ceded Guam to the United States.

Ph.D. Program
The Ph.D. program in Romance Languages is designed to provide students with:
- A thorough familiarity with several fields (a movement, a genre, a period, a literary problem, etc.);
- The opportunity to situate the student's special interests in the wider context of Romance languages and literature, as well as in that of trends inside and outside Western European culture;
- The tools necessary to engage literary issues at a high level;
- The ability to examine new and challenging literary or theoretical perspectives.
Students who enter the Ph.D. program with no knowledge of a second Romance languageare encouraged to start learning one as soon as possible during their graduate studies.
The Ph.D. program has five components: course work, comprehensive examination, dissertation prospectus, original dissertation, and final oral defense.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE Ph.D. DEGREE (Coursework, Exam, Prospectus, Dissertation, Defense)
The Ph.D. degree requires a total of 84 graduate-level credits—32 credits in addition to the 52 required for the master's degree. Course work applied to the degree must be taken for letter grades, and a grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 or better must be maintained.
Students must complete at least 21 graduate seminars in the department (at least 84 credits in all) beyond the B.A. Ph.D. students must thus take at least 8 graduate courses (32 credits) beyond the 13 courses (52 credits) required for the M.A. Only one of these 8 courses (4 credits) may be satisfied in the form of a Reading and Conference course (FR, ITAL, SPAN 605).
Of the 21 courses (84 credits) 3 (12 credits) must be taken in a second Romance Language.
Up to 3 of the 21 courses (12 of the 84 credits) may be taken outside of the department, with the authorization of the advisor, and provided that they bear directly on the student's program of study.
Doctoral students are also strongly encouraged to take Romance Languages Colloquium (RL 623) for at least two credits. The Colloquium can either be taken as a two-credit, P/NP course (in which case it does not count towards the doctoral degree) or as a four-credit, graded course.
Graduate students admitted to the UO Ph.D. program with an M.A. in French, Spanish, Italian, or Romance Languages from the University of Oregon may count toward their Ph.D. course requirements a maximum of two graduate courses completed during their M.A. programs, provided that these courses have not been counted toward fulfillment of the M.A. requirements. The total number of credits in Romance Languages after the B.A. must in any case be at least 84.
Graduate students admitted to the UO Ph.D. program with an M.A. in French, Spanish, Italian, or Romance Languages from another institution must take a minimum of ten graduate courses (40 credits) in the Romance Languages Department. The Graduate Committee will evaluate the courses students have taken toward their M.A. and will determine whether additional courses are necessary to fill any gaps in a student's preparation. This may result in a student taking more than 10 courses (40 credits) at the UO, up to a required maximum of 17 (68 credits).
Where the M.A. is found to be seriously deficient, or has been taken in another field, the Graduate Committee reserves the right to admit the student into the M.A. program instead. In this case students may petition to transfer a maximum of three courses towards the 13 courses required for the M.A. This petition may be filed when the student has completed four graduate courses in the Romance Languages M.A. program with a grade of B or better. return to top of page
II. Ph.D. Comprehensive Examination (oral and written)
Students entering the Ph.D. program should develop, as soon as possible but no later than the third term of course work beyond the M.A., a field of interest that will form the basis of their research for the Ph.D. comprehensive examination and ideally for the dissertation. This special field of interest usually emerges from the selected courses and shapes the areas of concentration represented on their comprehensive examination.
The comprehensive examination consists of three exams (two written and one oral). Each written examination covers a subfield that pertains to the student's special field of interest. The subfields should be defined and prepared with three members of the RL faculty who will constitute the Ph.D. exam committee. (One of these three faculty members should represent the student's second Romance language. A fourth member may be added from another department.) In consultation with the members of the examination committee, students create a reading list for each of the defined subfields.
The reading list must be approved by the exam committee no later than 4 weeks before the exam date. Students are responsible for distributing the reading list to the committee members as soon as the list is approved.
Each written exam will take the form of an essay that responds to one of two questions formulated by a members of the Ph.D. exam committee. Each written exam will cover one of the subfields and will be a maximum of 20 double-spaced, typed pages. The student will have two weeks to write each of the essays.
Two weeks after the successful completion of the written essays, the student will take an oral examination. The oral exam will attempt to integrate the areas addressed in the written exams with the other facets of the student's declared field of interest. In a two-hour conversation, the candidate and the committee members examine and elaborate on ways in which the written essays help to define a project within the student's special field.
Typically undertaken during the fifth term of study following the M.A., the comprehensive examination should result in clarification of both the subject matter of the dissertation and possible approaches to it. The exam should, in other words, yield at least a tentative dissertation topic.
Students who fail the Ph.D. examination in whole or in part will be allowed to take it over (in whole or in part) once. They are encouraged to do so no later than 6 months after failing. If they fail again they are disqualified.
It is the responsibility of the student to schedule both the written and the oral portions of the comprehensive examination.
With the successful completion of the Ph.D. comprehensive exam, the student will advance to candidacy and begin preparing the dissertation prospectus. return to top of page
The prospectus is normally completed during the sixth term of study following the M.A. It should define the scope of the dissertation and demonstrate the originality of the project. The student submits an eight- to ten-page prospectus and a substantial research bibliography of primary and secondary material to the faculty members on his or her dissertation committee.
Students are responsible for putting together a dissertation committee, which normally consists of four members: one director and two readers from the Department of Romance Languages, and one reader from another department. A student may also choose to have two co-directors in the Department of Romance Languages (plus two further members of the department).
When the student has a solid draft of the prospectus, she or he will schedule a meeting with the dissertation committee members for a presentation and discussion of the prospectus. Following this conversation, the student will make final revisions to the prospectus. Once the committee has given its final approval, the student will submit the prospectus to the department for filing.
Students are reminded that they must have a dissertation committee in place and proper documents filed with the Graduate School six months before the dissertation defense.
Any student making significant changes to the dissertation project after the final approval of the prospectus must schedule a meeting with the dissertation committee before proceeding. return to top of page
The dissertation should constitute an original and valuable contribution to scholarship in the student's field of interest. It should be characterized by mature literary interpretation, informed and reasoned argument, and an awareness of the means and goals of research.
It is the student's responsibility to ascertain the rules and deadlines of the Graduate School for proper filing of the dissertation. Students are strongly encouraged to familiarize themselves with the stringent formatting and structure guidelines for the dissertation (the information is provided by the Graduate School and is available online or in pamphlet form).
Students are reminded that a final copy of the dissertation must be distributed to the dissertation committee for final approval at least three weeks before the dissertation defense. return to top of page
V. Final Oral Dissertation Defense
When all members of the dissertation committee have approved the dissertation, a public oral presentation and defense of the work is held. return to top of page
All post-M.A. work, including the dissertation, is normally completed in three to four years of study. Students entering the UO Ph.D. program with an M.A. from UO are normally eligible for a maximum of three years of funding after the M.A. Students entering the UO Ph.D. program with an M.A. from elsewhere are normally eligible for a maximum of four years of funding. Ph.D. students making satisfactory progress toward the degree are eligible for funding packages in the form of graduate teaching fellowships. Graduate teaching fellowships include stipends for teaching, as well as tuition waivers. Satisfactory progress entails completing all courses taken for credit with a grade of B or better; passing the Ph.D. comprehensive examnation; timely submission of an acceptable dissertation prospectus; and regular and timely progress on the dissertation itself. return to top of page

What other readers are saying about this title:
Ryner said:
This sequel to Earthly Joys focuses on John Tradescant (the younger), gardener to the King of England during the tumultuous reign of Charles I. Desiring merely to garden rather than take sides between the king and parliament, he sails to Virginia to gather new and exotic plants for his collection. There, assisted by a young Powhatan girl, he finds himself drawn into this virgin land's raw beauty. When the natives and the new English settlers go to war, John finds himself pressured once again to take sides in a conflict he wants nothing to do with, and must decide who he really is.
I greatly enjoy Gregory's prose, and never fail to get sucked into the period – this book is no exception. Some of John's relationships are unsatisfactory, and the ending is heartbreaking. I was inspired to learn more about Mr. Tradescant and his minor role in history.

The bloody revenge film about slavery before the U.S. Civil War has fueled some of the debate about whether Hollywood shows too much on-screen violence.

Broccoli Soup
Buy your favorite foods and snacks in smaller quantities. If you buy foods in larger portions, you are likely to eat up to 44% more. Think of those little, single serving boxes of cereal as compared to the 'Family-Size' box. How much cereal will you put into your bowl? If you are using the larger box, chances are that you will place multiple servings in the bowl without even realizing it.
Broccoli Soup
2 tsp non-hydrogenated margarine
½ leek (white part only), finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
4 cups fresh broccoli, including stems, chopped
3 ½ cups light chicken or vegetable broth
Heat margarine on medium heat in a saucepan. Gently sauté leek and celery for 3-4 min, until leek is softened. Add chopped broccoli, followed by the broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 min, until vegetables are tender. Allow soup to cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Return soup to pot and heat gently until ready to serve. Yields 6 servings.

A little about me...
I am a perfectionist so others may be inclined to perceive me as a snob, but this is a misconception.I believe in the best qualities of mankind and certainly do not consider myself to be superior. I care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in my life happy. Helping others is a true pleasure for me, I feel best when everyone else is smiling. I make a great friend in part because of my refusal to see the negative in a person, However I can be quite venomous in response to being crossed by a lover, friend or business partner. I am highly intelligent and forever studying, in my quest for greater knowledge. I can be rather exclusive, choosing to spend time with those who will appreciate me most.
About the one I'm looking for...
I am searching for the one who will always keep me challenged. Never settling and is always motivated to keep moving forward now matter how far we get. Laughter is an absolute must as well keeping up his appearance.
I'd just like to add...
Loyalty is the most important quality in a person in my eyes.

All-in-one Car Seat Stroller
Travel season is coming up, and when we were at the airport last week, we spotted a couple pushing their baby in one of these. At first, we thought it was actually something provided by the airport, but then we realized it was way too nice.
Then, on our plane ride home, we spotted the stroller while flipping through the in-flight SkyMall Magazine. (Yes, we always flip through, and we've actually found a couple of really useful things in there!)
At $250, it's not cheap, but it can be used as a car seat, airplane seat, stroller, and even booster seat according to the product details. Anyone used this?
8 Comments
I don't fly enough to warrant the $250 price tag. Instead I bought the Gogo Kidz Travelmate. It just attaches to the regular car seat and you just wheel that around the airport. Super easy to install and it works great. It was a lifesaver when I flew by myself with 2 little ones. Plus, I found it on Craigslist for $50, so it's a much better deal than the one you are featuring.
We have this, and it's been great to use. Not as good as a stroller, not as good as a real carseat, but a good compromise.
To make up for the $250 price tag, we loan it out a lot to friends...
This is great for traveling! We LOVE ours. I would not recommend it for petite people. My son is about 28 pounds, which makes carrying him in it a bit of a workout. I have found it can't be rolled down most airplane aisles, so I just carry him in it to our seats (@14 months, he can walk but only in the opposite direction that I need to go). I would have bought the Gogo Kidz, but since we needed a second car seat for my husband's car we went with the sit-n-stroll.
Also be prepared for people to stop you in the airport and ask you about it!
Itâs lasted me through heavy travel w/2 kids, so Iâve gotten my $250 worth.
Now we use it as as our primary carseat in our secondary car. Itâs great if you donât want to wake the baby up when you have to get out of he car (like when the baby FINALLY falls asleep just as youâre pulling in the driveway at home, up to a restaurant, at the supermarket, etc. and you donât want to wake him up). You can just lower the âretractable landing gearâ and push around your sleeping baby. All adults wish they had a lazboy on wheels like this.
Also, the seat is low enough to the ground so the kids can get in/out by themselves.
Not a very good stroller, but it gets the job done.
As a stroller, thereâs no storage basket/net â only a tiny plastic tray under the seat
Our right handle broke off somewhere between SF and Narita, so now I have to steer from the middle.
Never tried this, but we also use the gogobabyz carseat dolly that turns the carseat into a stroller. It makes airport travel a little easier.
We were given this stroller as a gift and at first were pretty disdainful. But then we actually had to fly with our daughter and LOVED it. So amazing not to have to bring both a car seat and a stroller. We use it every time we fly. Highly recommend it!
I live in New York City and don't own a car so the only time I really need a car seat is when I am traveling so we bought this instead of a regular one. I agree that it is not a great stroller, however, as long as you are using it inside, on fairly even ground it works very well.
I have flown with my son many times with this contraption, and it makes the whole process so much easier, not just airport wise. On the other end I don't have to worry about figuring out a carseat from a rental car, or my parents, or friends.....I don't have to lug a seat around, etc, etc.
I could not ask for something any more useful to our lifestyle. I was worried about the high pricetag originally, but it was well worth it.
We're about to use ours for the first time with a direct flight to Hawaii with our 15 month old (yes, we're that crazy.) Wish us luck!

Psoriasis Health Center
Pustular Psoriasis
Pustular Psoriasis Symptoms continued...
The most common places these pustules appear are the anal and genital area and bends and folds in your skin. Pustules may appear on the face, but this is unusual. Pustules can appear on the tongue, which may make it difficult to swallow. They can also occur under your nails and cause your nails to come off.
Within a day, the pustules fuse together and form "lakes" of pus that dry and peel off in sheets. The skin underneath is a smooth reddish surface, on which new pustules can appear. These episodes of pustules appearing, fusing and peeling, and reappearing can last for days to weeks. They can make you uncomfortable and exhausted. In two to three months, a phase involving hair loss can occur.
Once the pustules improve, most of your other symptoms (such as headache and fever) will usually disappear. However, in some people, the skin may remain bright red, and skin symptoms of nonpustular psoriasis may continue.
The ring-shaped type is more common in young children. This type tends to be subacute or chronic, and the symptoms are less severe than in the generalized type. Ring-shaped plaques (elevated areas) appear and are often recurrent. Pustules may appear at the edges of the ring. These areas of skin symptoms appear mostly on the trunk but also on the arms and legs. The edges expand, and the center heals. Other symptoms are either absent or mild.
The juvenile, or infantile, type of pustular psoriasis is usually mild. Other symptoms besides skin symptoms are seldom present. The condition often resolves on its own.
Pustular psoriasis of the palms and soles is usually chronic and may be associated with bone or joint inflammation. The palms or soles are red with white or yellow pustules.
When to Seek Medical Care
Visit your doctor if you have a rash of raised, pus-filled bumps on your skin, especially if you have generalized symptoms such as headache, fever, chills, joint pain, a feeling of general discomfort or uneasiness, decreased appetite, and nausea.
Visit your doctor any time you have sores of any type in your mouth or throat that make it difficult for you to breathe or swallow.
Exams and Tests
Your doctor may perform blood tests, including the following:
- A complete blood count (CBC)
- A urine sample
- A small sample of a pustule's contents to perform a culture
Pustular Psoriasis Treatment
Medical Treatment
People with the generalized form of pustular psoriasis are often admitted to the hospital to make sure they have adequate fluid intake and bed rest and don't lose too much heat or have too much strain on the heart. Bland compresses are applied to the skin, and saline (saltwater) solutions and oatmeal baths help to soothe and heal affected areas. In children with pustular psoriasis, this treatment is often all that's needed.

CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Monday evening Cape Coral police responded to a crash involving a car and a motorcycle at the intersection of Ceitus Pkwy. and Burnt Store Rd.
When officers arrived on the scene they found the motorcycle rider, Shawn O'Brien, ejected from his bike and not wearing a helmet. O'Brien is in the ICU at Lee Memorial Hospital with life threatening injuries.
A report from CCPD says Dawn-Marie Eva Frieder was driving her car south on Burnt Store Rd. towards the intersection of Ceitus Pkwy. at the same time O'Brien was heading north on Burnt Store Rd. towards the same intersection. At the intersection, Frieder started to turn into the Walgreens parking lot. The report says Frieder drove directly in front of O'Brien who was not able to stop in time.
The motorcycle hit the front passenger side of Freider's car, throwing O'Brien from his bike. Frieder and a juvenile passenger suffered minor injuries and was treated on scene by EMS. CCPD says alcohol and drugs are not factors in the traffic crash.
There have been 18 traffic fatalities in Cape Coral in 2013.
Here is a breakdown of traffic related deaths in Cape Coral over the past five years.
2013= 18 Traffic fatalities (this number DOES NOT INCLUDE 3 medical ruled deaths)
2012= 10 Traffic fatalities
2011= 11 Traffic fatalities (this number DOES NOT INCLUDE 2 medical and 1 suicide ruled deaths)
2010= 9 Traffic fatalities
2009= 8 Traffic fatalities (this number DOES NOT INCLUDE 1 medical ruled death)

Hot or Not: Pie Crust Bag
We confess that pies are not our strong suit. We love a perfectly crimped pie crust, but ours tend to shrink in the pan - maybe we don't roll our dough thin enough? So this little gadget was rather appealing: Pie Crust Bag ($5.95, The Baker's Catalogue). You roll out the dough inside the bag, unzip and turn into the pan. This could be a great tool for kids, too.
What do you think? Is this an ingenious little gadget, or do you have a better way to ensure flawlessly flaky and crimped pie crusts this summer?
13 Comments
I don't know what this would do to make the crust more flaky, but it would solve the mess problem for me - I can make a decent pie crust, but I rarely do it because when I do, I end up with flour and dough bits all over the kitchen floor and livingroom carpet (the dinning table, which is my work surface for baking, is in the livingroom). I spend half an hour on the pie, then another half an hour cleaning up. So this might prevent some of that spillage when rolling out the dough...
The only advantage I can see to this is keeping the process a bit tidier. In that respect, if you make pies with kids, it could be good.
But I see no way that it would actually improve the pastry.
If your dough is shrinking, it's probably because you're not letting it rest. After you put the pastry in the pan, you should lightly cover with plastic wrap and pop it in the fridge for a little bit (even 15 minutes). Relaxes the gluten after all that rolling and turning so it won't tighten up in the oven so much.
I often find that the dough shrinks when I add too much moisture, it should be a little dry when before it rests. The hour or so in the fridge will help it come together. As for the bag my first thought was cleaning it afterwards... annoying! Plus not every crust recipe will give you the same amount so you shouldn't be rolling them all out to the same diameter.
If your crust is shrinking up, you're overactivating the gluten. Mostly, that means you need to work your dough less, but resting might help as well.
Pie crusts scare me, a lot. I'd buy anything of reasonable size and price that would make them less scary.
I'm a fanatic pie baker, but never make my own crusts. There are perfectly suitable crusts in the freezer section of the grocery store. Frozen crusts aren't ideal, but I just don't think the results of making homemade pie crusts is worth the effort for the result. Without spending tons of time making pie crusts, I can whip up and apple, lemon meringue, pecan....well any pie, in about 10 minutes (excluding baking time). And no messy flour to clean up!
Sheesh, use a freaking gallon-sized Ziploc. It works great and costs about 1/60th as much.
Stoat, are there specific freezer crust brands that you like? I went on a must-make-own-crusts kick, but I share Rosie's ability to strew the entire apartment with dampened hunks of flour... which is somewhat discouraging...
Pastry isn't scary! With a bit of practise you just get to know what to do with it. I think this is probably more to do with rubbish British food than my culinary skills (!), but I've never tasted frozen pastry as good as home made (except puff and filo pastry which are so fiddly!). I haven't got round the flour-flinging problem either, but I love making pastry and bread dough (please no bread machines!) so much I don't care! Don't really get this pie crust bag thing - you wouldn't be able to rescue the pastry if it got too dry/sticky when you were rolling it.
I got this bag a few weeks ago and LOVE IT! It is great for keeping the flour and dough in one place, and awesome for sizing. Most importantly the transfer into the pan always gave me trouble, now it's a non-issue! Just baked a sour cherry pie 2 hours ago using it!
As for Stoat, I'm sorry to say if you enjoy frozen crusts you've clearly never tried Dorie Greenspan's "Good For Almost Everything Pie Dough" never will I use frozen dough again, even when I make pies to donate to the Salvation Army at Thanksgiving! We all deserve better!
Anywho, love the pie rolling bag! Anything to make life easier and cleaner!
I MUST try this baggy thing... I love baking but my crusts tend to break while transferring to the pie dish... mind you, they taste devine, but they are a "blah" on the looks department.
one long sheet of waxed paper sprayed with non-stick spray - fold in half - plop dough ball in center of bottom part - roll. My dad's used this technique for years. The best part is very little clean-up and easy crust transfer. I would be leery of something that has a zipper as I'd constantly be cleaning off bits of old dried-on crust
I think it's great for a 9" pie crust - allows for quick roll out, perfect shape and easy transfer to pie plate. To clean - just let it soak for awhile in some soapy water, rinse and wipe off with paper towel.

How Walmart may have blown it in NYC
Walmart certainly makes it hard for people who want to support the giant retailer— especially those of us (ranging from the mayor to major business groups to me) who have argued that it should be allowed to do business in New York City.
A huge scandal exploded over the weekend when The New York Times wrote that Walmart may have not only systematically bribed Mexican officials to ease its expansion in that country but also covered up the activities when alerted to them. It's a major blow to Walmart's efforts to open the stores in New York City. The question is whether it will be fatal to their plans here. The answer is likely to be yes, and it is Walmart's fault.
Monday Walmart insisted it remains committed to New York. It's most important supporter remained loyal as Mayor Bloomberg told reporters, "I've been a big supporter of the government not telling people where they can do business. Here the market decides and people decide. I have no idea what they did in Mexico and if it's true or not. Walmart has the right to be here. You don't have to work there and patronize them. But it's totally up to you."
The mayor is right on the substance but the politics is very different. He gave Walmart's entry a strong and public endorsement late in the 2009 mayoral campaign, and the giant retailer capitalized on that with an adroit advertising and public-relations campaign. The success of Walmart's efforts were clear from public opinion polls that showed that New Yorkers supported the retailer's entry by huge margins, even among those who thought it would hurt small businesses. New Yorkers understood that Walmart would benefit consumers and rejected the idea that city government should decide which retailers could operate here.
Of course, the polls didn't persuade any of the leading Democratic candidates for mayor in 2013, all of whom vociferously oppose Walmart—maybe on principle and maybe because unions carry so much clout in the Democratic primary. It's been obvious for a long time that Walmart needed to open stores while Mr. Bloomberg remained in office even if the company targeted a location that didn't need City Council approval.
Yet, Walmart squandered all that momentum by not announcing a plan to open stores. It is true that giant companies like Walmart march to their own beat, but the months of silence have clearly eroded its position.
The Mexican scandal hurts in two ways. It obviously means any move in New York will need to be delayed until the publicity dies down. More importantly, the New York Times story suggests current CEO Mike Duke, the driving force behind the effort to move into New York, could be implicated.
With the clock ticking toward a new mayor, Walmart may have just blown it.

Beyond that most of what you're saying is true though it has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Most Tanks at least the good ones know all this already

I decided to make a blawg especially for pictures of me in all of my chubby, femme glory so that the world could see just how fuckable I really am.
So here I am in all of my 90's-child glory.
I cut the skirt and added stars to the bottom of it. It was originally thrifted.
The green top and leopard cardi are from chain stores in NZ, as are the bejewelled tights.
The shoes are Doc Martens and my headband was made by women in Guatemala and has worry dolls on it.

TACOMA -- Almira/Coulee-Hartline came up just short in their search for the 1B state championship, falling 36-28 to Neah Bay in the title game on Friday in Tacoma.
It was an uncharacteristically low-scoring first half for the Warriors. The game was only tied 8-8 at halftime. The two teams then started lighting up the scoreboard after the break. They traded touchdowns until ACH fell behind in the third quarter, and couldn't catch up after that.
For Neah Bay, it's their first ever state championship. The Warriors have won two titles in the past (the last championship happening in 2007), but they finish as the runners-up this season. They finish the year 13-1.
State championships continue for area teams on Saturday in Tacoma. Waitsburg-Prescott faces Morton/White Pass for the 2B title at 4pm.
