It's time for Arizona to get in the game with Mexico
What do we want
from Mexico?
As the Gang of
Eight pushes forward
on immigration reform,
the prospect of
real change gives us
the opportunity as Arizonans
and Americans
to ask, What do we
want from our relationship
with Mexico?
The first question to ask is, What IS our
current relationship with Mexico? It is definitely NOT a security-based relationship.
True, the Mérida Initiative — a binational
U.S.-Mexico security program — is worth
about $1.9 billion dollars over several years
and our border security complex costs us
several billion dollars annually. Yet these
figures pale in comparison with the U.S.-Mexico commercial relationship, now at
over a half trillion dollars per year. Mexico
is the U.S.' No. 2 export market, our No. 2
tourism market and the third-largest foreign
petroleum supplier. Mexico is Arizona's
largest trading partner, by a significant
amount. In this era of globalization, money
really talks, and the reality is that our bilateral
commercial "conversation" makes the
talk about Mexico's security situation and
our own worries over border security look
small in comparison.
Arizona needs more personal relationships
with Mexico
In international relations, as in football,
it's a bad strategy to have your "defense"
on the fi eld for most or all of the game.
Over the past several years, we've been
playing defense at the border just as
Mexico's economy expanded tremendously
beginning in 2010. Even our trade discussions
in the state focus largely on what
is happening just here in Arizona. As important
as border infrastructure is, in reality
the U.S.-Mexico border is the very last
place where you want to start dealing with
complex issues such as immigration, trade
and security.
Business in a global context is still driven
by personal interactions. This means that
you can't accomplish all that you need to
accomplish from our air-conditioned offi ces
in Phoenix, Tucson or even Nogales. Business
in Mexico is particularly notable for
being based on face-to-face relationships
between family-owned fi rms, often over
very long and delicious meals in Mexico
City. Tough work, but someone has to do it!
A Casa Arizona in Mexico City
Arizonans have the Arizona-Mexico Commission
as a solid mechanism for working
with the state of Sonora, but Sonora is
just one state in Mexico and not the most
dynamic from an economic standpoint.
The real economic potential is where the
large population centers are: Mexico City,
Monterrey and Guadalajara. We desperately
need a permanent, well-staffed Casa
Arizona located in Mexico City that can be
utilized by the state of Arizona, city leaders,
chambers of commerce, universities and
other key stakeholders. The basic methodology
for these types of trade development
offi ces is now well-developed by other
states, most notably Texas. Arizonans need
to be there in large numbers and full-time
in order to get in the game and make
something happen for the state. Immigration
reform gives us the "bandwidth" to
focus on creating the truly strategic relationships
and fl ows of trade and tourism
that we very much need to help develop a
sustainable economy.

American Center for Transborder Studies at

Time for a run through the top headlines from around the NFC South:
When the Falcons had the first-round bye back in the 2010 season, coach Mike Smith gave his team some time off. Although Smith usually is a creature of habit, he's taking a different approach this time around. The Falcons will practice four times this week. But I'm not surprised Smith is taking a different approach than he did in 2010 because the Falcons lost to the Packers in the playoffs.
Offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter, defensive coordinator Mike Nolan and special-teams coach Keith Armstrong aren't the only staff members drawing attention from elsewhere. Director of player personnel Dave Caldwell also is being mentioned as a candidate for several of the vacant general manager jobs.
After rushing for a franchise record 210 yards in the season finale, DeAngelo Williams said his future is in the hands of the Panthers. No matter who ends up as general manager, the Panthers face a difficult salary-cap situation and Williams stands out because he has a huge contract and the team has depth in the backfield with Jonathan Stewart and Mike Tolbert.
Mike Triplett writes the NFL should go ahead and reinstate suspended coach Sean Payton immediately, instead of after the Super Bowl. It's a nice idea and it would help the Saints if Payton was allowed to have a voice in some big decisions that are facing the Saints. But I have a very tough time seeing NFL commissioner Roger Goodell letting Payton coming back early. Goodell took a big hit when his player suspensions were overturned and letting Payton serve his full suspension would save some face.
Ira Kaufman lists five issues the Bucs need to address in the offseason. Naturally, he starts with the secondary. The pass defense was terrible and the Bucs have to find several new cornerbacks in free agency and the draft. They also may have to get a free safety because Ronde Barber could retire.

Numb3rs - The Complete First Season
Frequently Bought Together
Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
The DVD set features episode commentary by cast and crew, and a peek at the unaired pilot that starred many different actors (including Anna Deveare Smith and Michael Rooker) who were dropped when the episode was overhauled. Morrow, who wasn't even in the pilot, was cast later with Judd Hirsch as their father to replace the original (blonder) actors because, as producers admitted, casting Krumholtz as Charlie took the family in an "ethnically specific direction." The jokes also abound in a behind-the-scenes featurette, where Morrow defines the series as "Rain Man plus an extra Jew." --Ellen A. Kim
Special Features

- "Crunching Numb3rs: Season One" featurette

So what makes this show so good? Lots of things, I suppose. I particularly like the combination of Charlie and Don as a crime-fighting team, their skills and personalities complimenting each other. With Charlie you get the latest incarnation of the classic figure of the detective who uses reason and logic to solve the crime (going all the way back to Edgar Allan Poe's Dupin in "The Purloined Letter" not to mention Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes), and with Don you of course get the cop with a badge and a gun who saves the day (a mainstay of American TV for decades). That said, both actors flesh these archetypes out really well into individual characters, and their brotherly interaction (with a dash of sibling rivalry) creates just the right dynamic.
The math angle is handled extremely well, too.Read more ›
Teachers out there may not be aware that the show has a web site that offers lessons based on each episode. Upper level middle and high school students can be challenged by these activities created with help from Texas Instruments and The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. I am pleased to say some of the authors also participated in the Rutgers Leadership Program in Discrete Mathematics, a course I had the pleasure of taking way back in 1996. Check out the NUMB3RS website at
I'm 48 and I love it but so do my 20,17 and 14 year olds. It also doesn't have gratuitous sex or violence. It seems like old fashioned story telling. I would compare it to Monk in terms of good family viewing.
These guys should get some kind of congressional medal or something.
The good guys are good guys - even though they're normal.
Math, science, logic and thinking are all GOOD THINGS - but not deified.
Even the geek is a good guy and his friends actually watch out for him.
No gratuitous immorality or bad language - isn't that amazing?
Sure, sometimes there's a bit of a leap and occasionally conclusions are drawn that aren't necessarily inevitable, but it's a good show.
It's even entertaining.
Maybe these guys could take over PBS?
Here's an idea. Someone should write a book that takes each episode and fully explains the math and the concepts involved. The audience is already interested.

Boo Birds Galore In Season Finale
December 28, 1998
by April Adamson, Daily News Staff Writer
Disgruntled fans shuffling away from the Vet in the cold dark last night let loose their frustration over the Eagles' depressing season with obscenity-laced epithets. As they swallowed yet another Eagles loss, this time 20-10 to the division rival New York Giants, some wore paper bags over their heads with anti-Rhodes epithets. But Ray Rhodes, the maligned head coach who may have seen his last game here yesterday, wasn't the only target of fans' ire. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie got his share.
Eagles Next Opponent Redskins Slip Past Bengals, Stay Unbeaten
September 23, 1991
Daily News sports writer Mike Kern from wire reports
Even without Randall Cunningham, the Eagles are on a bit of a roll. But so is the next team on their dance card, the Washington Redskins, who host the Birds at RFK Stadium next Monday night, with the lead in the NFC East Division on the line. The 'Skins (4-0) extended their best start since 1985 with a 34-27 victory yesterday at Cincinnati (0-4). The game wasn't decided until 2:02 remained, when Gerald Riggs scored his third touchdown, on a 7-yard run. "When this team works together, you can't stop them," said Riggs, who had three touchdowns once before in 1985, as an Atlanta Falcon.
Buffalo's Flutie Staying Relaxed In Preparation For The Playoffs
December 31, 1998
By Ron Reid, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER This article contains information from the Associated Press
For more than a decade, Doug Flutie wanted to play in an NFL postseason game. Now that it's coming, the Buffalo quarterback is cooling it, his excitement on hold. "It's the same approach I have taken the last, I don't know, six years going into the playoffs," Flutie said yesterday in a conference call. In Flutie's eight seasons in the Canadian Football League, he won its most outstanding player award six times, led the CFL in passing five times, and took the Toronto Argonauts to the Grey Cup championship on three occasions.
A Win Over Buddy Would Clinch Berth
December 11, 1995
by Rich Hofmann, Daily News Sports Columnist
If the season ended today, ended with their astounding victory over the Cowboys, the Eagles would be hosting an NFC wild-card playoff game against the Atlanta Falcons. Of course, that would be too easy. There are still two games to play, and the league says they have to play them. So, here we are again, checked in for a two-week stay at the Tiebreaker Inn. And remember - no slide rules allowed on hotel premises, except to beat against your head in frustration at the NFL's ridiculously complicated rules.
Eagles Own Numbers; Chiefs Hold Balance
December 29, 1990
By Ron Reid, Inquirer Staff Writer
Most of the numbers and recent trends say the Eagles will beat the Cards this afternoon in Tempe, Ariz. The Eagles, after all, have clinched a wild-card playoff berth, while the Cards are playing only for next season's contracts. With a victory, the Eagles would open the playoffs at home. The Cardinals' season ends today, win or lose. Since the Cards beat the Eagles in the second week of the season, their record is 4-9. The Eagles, over the same period, are 9-4. The Eagles are 8-3 in NFC games; the Cards are 3-8. The Eagles are 3-4 on the road; the Cards are 3-4 at home.
Birds Face Host Of Possibilities
December 11, 2000
by Rich Hofmann , Daily News Sports Writer
Get out your calculator, the one with several decimal places, because you might need it to figure out if the Eagles are going to host a playoff game this season or not. That's how close at least one of the tiebreakers is. We know that the Eagles clinched a playoff spot with their win yesterday over the Cleveland Browns. As for the rest of it, well, here goes: Can the Eagles still win the NFC East? Same answer as last week: yes they can. They would need to beat Cincinnati in their final game to finish 11-5, and the Giants would have to lose their remaining two games (at Dallas, home against Jacksonville)
Matt Schaub, Texans know they need to play better
January 5, 2013
Associated Press
HOUSTON - Matt Schaub missed Houston's 2011 playoff run with an injured foot. Now the Texans' quarterback, who starred at West Chester East High School, is healthy and looking forward to his first playoff start Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals. The wild-card playoff game offers Schaub a chance to redeem himself after he threw two interceptions in last week's loss to Indianapolis, which kept Houston from getting a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs.

Hardly. The Giants put it out of mind in a hurry and kept on winning. They won the West with an 8-4 victory over San Diego on Saturday, a few hours after the rival Dodgers did their part by losing at Cincinnati as the Reds clinched the NL Central. "The whole lineup has come to life," general manager Brian Sabean said as the champagne flowed.
Feeling The Heat Like Eagles, Saints Know Postseason Failure
December 28, 1992

Sam Mills took the question head-on. No ducking, no side-stepping, just a straight answer to a painful truth. "Yes, there is pressure on us to win in the playoffs this year, and rightly so," said Mills, the leader of the much-decorated New Orleans defense. "We've been there before, but we've never gotten past the first round. It's time for us to start winning those games. We've got the talent to do it. We can't keep wasting our chances. " The Saints have qualified for the NFC playoffs in each of the last three seasons and four times in seven years under head coach Jim Mora.
Peete's Blow To Head Is Jolt To Eagles Qb's Memory Gets Clouded After He Suffers Concussion
January 8, 1996
by Rich Hofmann, Daily News Sports Columnist
"It was a do-or-die kind of game, and you have to do whatever you can," Rodney Peete was saying, his body sore, his head clouded, the game lost, the season over. Peete did what he could - and got knocked senseless trying. Straining to make a first down on a scramble at the end of the first quarter, Peete and Dallas safety Darren Woodson collided helmet-on-helmet. It would be Peete's last action in the Eagles' 30-11, NFC playoff loss. Peete suffered a concussion. He suffered from memory loss more than four hours later as he stood in an area outside the Eagles' dressing room.

Yankees, A's take divisions
October 5, 2012
Daily News Wire Reports
ROBINSON CANO and Curtis Granderson each hit a pair of homers, powering the New York Yankees past the Boston Red Sox, 14-2, on a raucous Wednesday night in the Bronx for their 13th AL East title in 17 years. In front of fans poised to party from the first pitch, the Yankees completed a three-game sweep of the last-place Red Sox to win their second consecutive division crown. The championship was locked up by the seventh inning, when Baltimore's 4-1 loss at Tampa Bay went final. Cano tied a career high with six RBI as New York secured homefield advantage throughout the AL playoffs.
Yankees one up on Orioles
October 2, 2012
Daily News Wire Reports
ROBINSON CANO, Curtis Granderson, Russell Martin and Mark Teixeira homered in a nine-run second inning, and the New York Yankees routed the visiting Boston Red Sox, 10-2, Monday night to open a one-game lead over Baltimore in the AL East with two games to play. Baltimore lost at Tampa Bay and dropped into second place, prompting cheers from the crowd when the final score was posted before the ninth inning. The Yankees, who clinched their 17th playoff berth in 18 years on Sunday, would ensure their 13th division title in 17 years by sweeping the three-game series against the Red Sox. "There's a lot of teams that would love to be in our position right now," Teixeira said.

Vick has to stop taking a lickin'
January 10, 2011
IT ENDED WITH the kind of interception that, in earlier times, would have resulted in the ladling of another heaping helping of Fricassee a la McNabb upon our municipal dinner plate; different quarterback, same time, next year. Michael Vick will escape that because the burden of Eagles postseason failure is about the only brand of baggage that he doesn't carry. So he will miss that, but not the notion that he and the Eagles are doomed to relive this kind of ending if he doesn't learn to get rid of the ball quicker and protect himself better.

January 8, 2002
By Phil Sheridan INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
It was his day off, so Chad Lewis went to work. He wasn't alone. The tight end was one of many Eagles who showed up at the team's practice facility yesterday on what was officially the players' day off. "Everyone knows that the season starts today," Lewis said. The season the Eagles have been waiting for is the postseason. With Sunday's surreal game in Tampa, Fla., out of the way, the Eagles finally can focus on Saturday's playoff game against the Buccaneers. This is what they have been working toward for exactly one year and one day. On Jan. 7 of last year, they were eliminated from the playoffs by the New York Giants.
Birds aim higher this time around Just making the playoffs is no longer enough. In other words, it's Super Bowl or it's bust.
January 6, 2002
By Phil Sheridan INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The bar is definitely set higher for the Eagles this season. As they prepare for their second straight trip to the postseason, they are a little older, considerably wiser and more experienced, and arguably more talented. "We've been there," defensive end Hugh Douglas said. "But we haven't been there. We've been to the playoffs, but we haven't been to the Super Bowl yet. That's where we expect to be. " Last season, the Eagles went 11-5, finishing second to the New York Giants in the NFC East.
A Case For The Defense The Giants Scored 57 Points In Two Wins Over The Eagles. But The Birds' Offense Shared Blame.
January 3, 2001
By Jerry Brewer, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
All season, the Eagles' defense has enjoyed the role of savior, always there to counter any woes its young, developing offense has suffered. The defense has performed wonderfully in games against other fine defenses, with Sunday's 21-3 wild-card playoff victory over Tampa Bay illuminating that point. But while the New York Giants' splendid defense crippled the Eagles' offense in two meetings during the regular season, the Eagles' defenders did not respond. The Giants await the Eagles at the Meadowlands this Sunday, a challenge standing in front of them like a bully in a child's path to school.
Eagles' Coaches Are Under The Spotlight, Too
December 29, 2000
By Phil Sheridan, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Ask a group of NFL coaches about theories for preparing their teams for the playoffs and you might get an equal number of answers. But the enduring reminder of Buddy Ryan as the Eagles got ready to play the Los Angeles Rams was these immortal words: "Greg Bell, my [derriere]. " A few days later, on New Year's Eve 1989, Bell ran for 124 yards, including a 54-yard sprint to set up his own 7-yard touchdown run. The Rams' defense, playing a five-linebacker scheme devised by Fritz Shurmur, thoroughly confused the Eagles' offense.

Stilt Walker Johannesburg, information and definitions via
the web:
Stilts are poles that allow person stand
and walk at certain height above the
ground. To enable walking stilts have
sort of steps for the feet to stand on,
or straps to attach them to the legs.
Stilts have been used in many parts of
Europe as people suffered from floods,
had to walk through marshes etc. In the
19th century there has been competition
in stilt walking organized in parts of
Spain and France. The prizes like a gun
or a sheep could have been won.
Nowadays stilt walking is the main
attraction of several festivals. One of
them is organized in small mountainous
village of Anguiano. It is located in
the province of La Rioja in the north of
Spain. People of Anguiano organize "Danza
de los Zancos" ("Stilt dancing"). The
festival is held on the 22nd and 23rd of
August in honour of "Magdalena" (Mary
Magdalene). She is a very popular saint
in this part of Spain. Eight men
participating in the festival wear
brightly coloured shirts and petticoats
that trail down to their ankles. Each of
them is standing on wooden stilts.

When a New Yorker walks past a chicken on his morning stroll, we are left to wonder which one is the real city slicker.
For the last several years I have gone to see the Academy Award nominated shorts--both live action and animated. This year is a first for the animated category in that as we sat watching, I overheard a lot of murmurs about how bad the nominees were. The folks watching seemed, at times, genuinely mad at the choices. Fortunately, after three very sub-par films, the final three were excellent and it seems pretty clear that the race is between "La Luna" and "The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore". And, like the last couple years, following these nominees, they showed some animated shorts that were not nominees but were sort of like runners up--and the folks I talked to preferred these films to several of the nominees.The film consists of three separate views of the same event--a chicken knocking at the door of a big city tenement and begin let inside. The first is set in the 1950s (and features an interesting minimalist style). The second in the modern day (and features a rather simple CGI look). The third is fifty years from now--in a dystopic zombie-like world (with some weird but creative CGI)."A Morning Stroll" was another film that seemed to leave me and the audience flat. While portions of the film were nice (such as seeing the filmmaker take on three separate styles), the overall film looked like a student film showing off various styles that they have tried out--not a coherent short film. The biggest problem was the story. It never engaged. You know it's bad when the best thing about this one is the iPhone app--featuring a DDR-type game with zombies. Overall, I do wonder why this film was chosen as an Oscar nominee. I just didn't see what made this film outstanding.

Wabbit Worries: Little Bill is very excited one morning at school when Miss Murray hands out the class assignments and asks him to look after the class' new pet rabbits, Dwayne and Wabbit. Little Bill becomes concerned when Wabbit, who usually loves to be held and eats the rabbit food as soon as it's served, is strangely quiet and isn't hungry. Miss Murray suggests calling a veterinarian in the morning to check Wabbit out. As he walks home, Little Bill decides to consult pet shop owner Mr. Percy with Wabbit's symptoms. Mr. Percy agrees to come to school the next day and examines Wabbit; he announces he has two surprises for the class-- Wabbit is really a female, and she's going to have babies soon, fathered by Dwayne. Mr. Percy volunteers to take Wabbit to his pet shop to keep her under observation until the litter is born. That night, Little Bill expresses his worries over Wabbit's condition to Brenda; she explains that Wabbit has the baby rabbits growing in her tummy, just like people have babies, and to reassure him, she takes out his baby album and shows him photos of when Brenda was pregnant with him. A few days later, Mr Percy returns Wabbit to the classroom with her eight new babies.
Wabbit Babies: Little Bill, Kiku, Andrew, and Fuschia announce to Miss Murray that they've named the rabbits, choosing the names Rosie, Ringo, Spot, Harvey, Daisy, Brownie, Peter, and Malcolm. Little Bill says it will be fun having ten rabbits to take care of, but Miss Murray tells them the baby rabbits are old enough to leave Wabbit now, and new homes will have to be found for them. The students want to keep the rabbits all together rather than separate them so they can still visit them regularly. When asking their parents fails, Little Bill tries his neighbors. Hair Salon owners Linda and Johari gently explain that although they love rabbits, they can't keep them in the salon and take care of the customers,too. Mr. Percy says he'd gladly take all the rabbits in, but his business is to sell pets, and sooner or later someone would buy the bunnies. After listening to everyone's ideas, Little Bill comes up with the suggestion of donating the bunnies to the children's petting zoo.
The Zoo: Miss Murray takes the class to the zoo, and Little Bill is very excited to see his favorite animals, the elephants. He asks Miss Murray if they can see the elephants first, but his teacher points out that they are going to follow the zoo map, and unfortunately, the elephants are the last exhibit. Bill waits patiently, and when they finally get to the elephant cage, the other children want to leave because the elephants are shy about coming out. Bill does his impersonation of an elephant roar and gets the attention of a baby elephant.
My Pet Elephant: After his trip to the zoo, Little Bill decides he wants a pet, and asks Brenda for permission to pick out an animal at the pet store. Brenda relents when the rest of the family, including Big Bill, beg her too. When Little Bill asks if he can have an elephant for his pet, Brenda explains that elephants are too big to live in houses. With some help from Mr. Percy, the pet store owner, Little Bill settles on a hamster and names it Elephant.

The U. will continue to host a hotline number and email — 801-587-5852 and firstname.lastname@example.com — for patients who have questions about their care. Paternity testing is available for patients who received care during the relevant time period, or when Lippert was employed at the clinic.
So far, the university has fielded about 15 calls, and all but two have been ruled out as possible issues related to the Lippert case. Those two are considering paternity tests.
"This is a very private situation between a couple and their physician in terms of trying to achieve a child under difficult circumstances," Mulvihill said. "Some patients have a loving, well-functioning family and they don't want to know too much more about the biological nature of the family, and others want to know."
A website, www.communitylabfacts.org, has also been set up to more easily disperse information to the public about the U.'s ongoing investigation and a panel of physicians has been established to review pertinent information and old documentation to determine what went wrong and how. The U. has also hired an independent third-party medical ethicist, R. Alta Charo from the University of Wisconsin, to review the methodology used by the committee and its findings and recommendations.
According to Mulvihill, the panel review should take about 90 days. "We don't know how long it will take to get to the truth of this matter," he said.
"We are deeply sorry for any anxiety this has caused to our patients."

The Golden Rice report
A Blind Approach To Blindness Prevention - Dr.Vandana Shiva
Previous: How not to do science   |   Next: A big illusion?
Full Coverage : All that glitters is not gold
Genetically engineered Vitamin A rice has been proclaimed as a miracle cure for blindness - "a break-through in efforts to improve the health of billions of poor people, most of them in Asia". The rice is being promoted as a cure for blindness since Vitamin A deficiency causes vision impairment and can lead to blindness . According to the UN, more than 2 million children are at risk due to Vitamin A deficiency. More than $100 million have been spent over 10 years to produce a transgenic rice at the Institute of Plant Sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. The Zurich research team headed by Ingo Potrykens and Xudong Ye introduced three genes taken from a daffodil and a bacterium into a rice strain to produce a yellow rice with high levels of beta-carotene, which is converted to Vitamin A within the body. The work in Zurich was funded by grants from the Rockfeller Foundation the agency which had launched the chemical agriculture in Asia through the Green Revolution which led to erosion of biodiversity and erosion of diverse sources of nutrition for the poor. In addition, the Swiss Government and the European Community has also supported the research. It will however take millions more in dollars and another decade of development work at the International Rice Research Institute to produce Vitamin A rice varieties that can be grown in farmers fields. Is the "golden" rice a miracle that is the only means for preventing blindness for Asia or will it introduce new ecological problems like the Green Revolution did and create new health hazards like other genetically engineered foods? The genetic engineering of Vitamin A rice deepens the genetic reductionism of the Green Revolution. Instead of millions of farmers breeding and growing thousands of crop varieties to adapt to diverse ecosystems and diverse food systems, the Green Revolution reduced agriculture to a few varieties of a few crops (mainly rice, wheat and maize) bred in one centralised research centre (IRRI for rice and CIMMYT for wheat and maize). The Green Revolution led to massive genetic erosion in farmers fields and knowledge, erosion among farming communities, besides leading to large scale environmental pollution due to use of toxic agrichemicals and wasteful use of water. Genetically engineered rice as part of the second Green Revolution is repeating the mistakes of the Green Revolution while adding new hazards in terms of ecological and health risks. The "selling" of Vitamin A rice as a miracle cure for blindness is based on blindness to alternatives for removing vitamin A deficiency and blindness to the unknown risks of producing Vitamin A through genetic engineering. Eclipsing Alternatives. The first deficiency of genetic engineering rice to produce Vitamin A is the eclipsing of alternative sources of vitamin A. As per, Mr. Pinstrup Anderson, Head of the International Rice Research Institute has said that Vitamin A rice is necessary for the poor in Asia, because "we cannot reach very many of the malnourished in the world with pills". However, there are many alternatives to pills for Vitamin A supply. Vitamin A is provided by liver, egg yolk, chicken, meat, milk, butter. Beta-carotene, the vitamin A precursor is provided by dark green leafy vegetables, spinach, carrot, pumpkin, mango and drumstick. Women farmers in Bengal use more than 100 plants for green leafy vegetables. The lower cost, accessible and safer alternative to genetically engineered rice is to increase biodiversity in agriculture. Further, since those who suffer from vitamin A deficiency suffer from malnutrition . Generally, increasing the food security and nutritional security of the poor through increasing the diversity of crops and diversity of diets of poor people who suffer the highest rates of deficiency is the reliable means for overcoming nutritional deficiencies. Sources of Vitamin A in the form of green leafy vegetables are being destroyed by the Green Revolution and Genetic Engineering which promotes the use of herbicides in agriculture. The spread of herbicide resistant crops will further aggravate this biodiversity erosion with major consequences for increase in nutritional deficiency. For example, bathua, a very popular leafy vegetable in North India, has been pushed to extinction in Green Revolution areas, where intensive herbicide use is a part of the chemical package. Environmental costs of vitamin A rice. Vitamin A from native greens and fruits is produced without irrigation and wastage of scarce water resources. Introducing Vitamin A in rice implies a shift from water conserving alternatives for Vitamin A to a water intensive system of production since so called high yielding rice varieties are highly water demanding. Vitamin A rice will therefore lead to mining of ground water or intensive irrigation from large dams with all the associated environmental problems of water-logging and salinisation. Further, as in the case of other genetically engineered crops, rice with Vitamin A will have impact on the food web. The ecological impact on soil organisms and other organisms dependent on rice in the food chain should be part of the biosafety analysis of genetically engineered rice before it is released for production. Research has already shown that indigenous rice varieties support far more species than Green Revolution varieties. How will genetically engineered rice impact biodiversity and the potential for disease and pest vulnerability? Health risks of vitamin A rice. Since rice is a staple eaten in large quantities in Asian societies, vitamin A rice could lead to excessive intake of vitamin A especially among those who do not suffer from vitamin A deficiency. Excess vitamin A can lead to hypervitaminosis A or vitamin A toxicity.Such toxicity is known to occur due to over ingestion of vitamin A rich food eg. Polar bear liver or by food faddism by over solicitous parents, or as side effects of an inappropriate therapy. Vitamin A toxicity can lead to abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, popillidena, bulging fontanelle. Chronic toxicity of vitamin A can occur after ingestion of large quantities of vitamin A for protracted periods. Chronic toxicity is characterized by bone and joint pain, hyperotosis, hair loss, dryness and fissures of lips, nausea intraeranial hypertension, low grade fever, pruritis, weight loss, hepatosplenomegaly. Natural sources of vitamin A are consumed seasonally and in small quantities as greens, relishes, fruits and hence do not carry the risks of vitamin A toxicity. Rice eating regions have been found to be associated with higher malnutrition than wheat eating regions, especially after the Green Revolution which destroyed fish and plant biodiversity necessary for a balanced diet. These regions also have higher prevalence of water borne diarrhea, amoebiasis hepatitis A and E, dysentery, and vector borne diseases like malaria, which unlike in earlier years when was a less hazardous form of malaria caused by plasmodium vivax is increasingly becoming falciparum malaria. These health problems are known to involve damage to the liver. The additional risks of vitamin A under these conditions of vulnerable health situations of the poor in Asia needs to be assessed with care before a large scale push is given to genetically engineered rice. Further, the globalisation of agriculture is leading to an increase in malnutrition in the Third World, as the most fertile ecosystems are diverted to luxury export crops, and as domestic markets are destroyed due to dumping of subsidised agricultural commodities. In India, per capita consumption of cereals has declined by 12 per cent in rural areas over the past two decades. The shift from policies based on the "right to food" to free trade policies will push millions into hunger and poverty. Genetically engineered rice is part of a package of globalised agriculture which is creating malnutrition. It cannot solve the problems of nutritional deficiency but it can introduce new risks of food safety. Since the vitamin A in rice is not naturally occurring and is genetically engineered, novel health risks posed by vitamin A rice will need to be investigated before the rice is promoted by IRRI and aid agencies or commercialised. The risk assessment for living modified organisms intended for direct use as feed, is given in Annexe II of the recently finalized Biosafety Protocol under the Convention on Biological Diversity. The risk assessment of vitamin A rice should therefore involve the following steps.

Operating in these EITI implementing countries:
About Petrobras
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. or Petrobras is a semi-public Brazilian multinational energy corporation headquartered in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Engagement with the EITI
Of the countries that currently participate in the EITI, Petrobras conducts operations in Colombia and USA (Candidate Countries), Nigeria and Tanzania (Compliant Countries). Petrobras Nigeria (PBN) and Petrobras Tanzania (Petan) have already been contacted by EITI representatives in previous years, and have supplied the requested information. Petrobras America Inc. (PAI) has not been contacted by EITI representatives yet. Petrobras Colombia Limited (PCL) has been contacted by the Colombian Government, which invited all extractive companies to join the initiative. Since the latter has not joined the initiative yet, there has not been any request for information by EITI representatives.
From all Petrobras production and exploration overseas companies, Petrobras Nigeria is the only one participating in a local multi-stakeholder group, doing so through the Oil Producers Trade Section (OPTS).
There has not been any kind of support nor contributions to the national EITI process other than the information provided upon request.
Petrobras was a member of the EITI Board from 2006 to 2008. Since then, we have been participating in most of the Board meetings as observers as well as attending the Global Conferences.
Financial contribution to international management of the EITI
Petrobras contributed USD 60,000 in 2015.
Other relevant information
Commitment to transparency and anti-corruption is a value inherent to Petrobras' corporate governance and culture. Even before the EITI was created, and going beyond its requirements, Petrobras had been publishing the payments made to the Government in Brazil and abroad for several years. Please see Petrobras payments to governments in the following website: http://www.investidorpetrobras.com.br/en/operational-highlights/costs-and-taxes
Aligned to the concept of transparency, Petrobras is a signatory of the UN Global Compact, which is an international initiative related to anti-corruption.
At the end of 2003 Petrobras adhered to the United Nations Global Compact, a voluntary agreement by which companies worldwide agree to guarantee compliance with the principles relating to human rights, working conditions, environment and anti-corruption. The Executive Board at Petrobras approved the proposal made by company President José Eduardo Dutra and the decision was communicated to the UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan.
When signing the UN's document, Petrobras committed to issue a declaration in support of the Global Compact, distributing it to employees, shareholders, clients and suppliers; to integrate the ten principles into its corporate development program; to incorporate these principles into the company's mission statement; to include the commitment in its annual report and to inform the UN of a concrete example of the application of these principles once a year.
Mario Vinicius Claussen Spinelli
Luiz Claudio S. Sampaio de Almeida
From Petrobras' statement of support to the EITI:
We have been part of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) since 2005. Created in 2002, during the World Sustainability Summit, the Initiative is the outcome of an alliance among governments, international organizations, investors, businesses and civil society groups aimed to improve transparency and render accounts in the extractivist industry, affording improvements in the management of the resources obtained through this activity.
One of the principles of EITI is that the prudent use of wealth derived from natural resources should be an important vector for sustainable economic growth that contributes to sustainable development and to the reduction of poverty. By supporting EITI, we commit to encourage initiatives for the transparency of the governments of the countries where we have a presence.

Amy (Whittier )
They fit perfectly. I love that they're mostly black with just a hint of pink... not too loud!
clara (Concord )
It's a pair of comfy boots, the fit is great, no pain points! However the boot isn't water proof, and some of the buckles came loose during a couple minor falls. Over all, for trail riding, the boot will provide general protection, and still should last quite a while, but maybe not so much if you are doing aggressive mx racing. The price is decent for what you paid for.
John (Tulsa )
Bought these for my girlfriend, we have made one all day-400 mile ride so far. She loves them fits true to size. Seem abut stiff of course but she says they are breaking in well by the end of the day. Would recommend
Jillian (Santa Cruz Mountains )
Alpinestars came very highly recommended to me when I was looking to purchase boots. A little more money than some other brands but definitely worth it. These boots are awesome! For the price and quality you just cant get a better boot! They are a great fit and they broke in quickly after wearing them around the house and taking them for a few short rides. After reading reviews, I was worried about the buckles being hard to get undone. But I haven't had any trouble with that. Highly recommend!

text: 000 FXUS63 KSGF 191941 AFDSGF Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Springfield MO 241 PM CDT TUE JUL 19 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) Issued at 230 PM CDT Tue Jul 19 2016 Upper level ridge of high pressure is over the region along with a hot a muggy air mass. A dry air mass is in place in the mid levels across the area this afternoon, especially in the 500-300mb range. There is a little moisture in the 700-500mb range across eastern MO where some isolated storms have been able to develop early this afternoon. Models show the 700-500mb layer drying through the afternoon, which will help to decrease convection as dry air entrainment occcurs. Will maintain low pops through late this afternoon across the far eastern Ozarks, though almost all locations will remain dry, and may be hard to even get thunder if any convection is able to develop. Temperatures are currently in the lower 90s with dewpoints in the low to mid 70s. This is resulting in heat index values around 105 across southeastern Kansas and western Missouri. Hot and humid conditions will occur on Wednesday as temperatures and heat index values are very similar to those that are currently occurring this afternoon. Highs will warm into the low to mid 90s with heat index values in the 100 to 108 range. Mid level moisture will increase across the eastern Ozarks Wednesday morning and may allow some isolated pulse type storms to develop during the late morning into the afternoon hours. As peak heating occurs drier air will begin to work in from the west, especially in the 500-300mb layer. The isolated storm chance will likely slowly shift east through the afternoon hours. The drier air building in the 500-300mb will limit updraft strengths once they hit the drier air. Strong Theta-E differences will be in place so if a storm can overcome the dry air there could be a microburst risk, however, the dry air in the 500-300mb layer will really limit this potential. With moiture being better in the 700-500mb range a few isolated storms will likely occur across protions of the eastern Ozarks during the late morning and afternoon hours. Overnight lows will only cool into the middle 70s tonight. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Tuesday) Issued at 230 PM CDT Tue Jul 19 2016 The upper level ridge of high pressure will remain over the region through the rest of the week into the start of the weekend. Highs in the middle 90s with heat index values in the 100 to 108 range can be expected each day. Dewpoints may slightly cool each day as little rainfall occurs, but if this occurs temperatures may get a tad warmer which should not affect heat index values each day. Will keep the current Excessive Heat Warning and Heat Advisory going as is through Friday afternoon as they seem to be in good shape. The medimum range models are then showing the upper level ridge flattening and a more zonal upper level flow pattern setting up Sunday into next week. This will result in slightly cooler conditions, though highs in the upper 80s to low 90s will occur still. A few upper level disturbance will likely track through the zonal flow and could trigger some storms across the area at times Sunday into early next week. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon) Issued at 1218 PM CDT Tue Jul 19 2016 Generally, VFR conditions for today and tonight. A few forecast models are suggesting fog and haze around 10z for KBBG and KSGF. Only added in fog for KBBG due to high confidence, but left it out for KSGF due to low confidence at this time. South and southeasterly winds will continue around 5 knots. Mostly clear skies for all sites today and tonight. && .SGF Watches/Warnings/Advisories...
