Country can't survive endless surges in Iraq
Published: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 at 11:33 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 at 11:33 a.m.
To The Editor: Most people would agree that the surge in Iraq is working. Or, is it?
Yes, violence has been substantially reduced and, if that is the only measure of success, then the surge can be deemed successful. However, as touted by the Bush administration, the purpose of the surge was to allow for Iraqi reconciliation.
As of now, there has been very little agreement among the various Iraqi religious and ethnic factions. Time is running out.
By the end of August, all of our surge troops will have been redeployed out of Iraq. It is then that Muqtada al-Sadr will decide to extend or to end his truce. What happens if he decides to resume his opposition to our military presence in Iraq by attacking our military forces and those of the unreliable Iraqi army?
Should the resulting violence escalate significantly, will John McCain and the Bush administration continue to maintain that the surge was a success?
Or, will McCain and Bush be forced to admit that the surge was another policy failure? Or, will they try to find more American troops for surge two? And, if McCain becomes president, surge three, surge four, five?

Next week, a volunteer force of 1,200 community folks will help H-E-B/Central Market feed a free meal to as many as 20,000 guests in Dallas and Fort Worth. The North Texas dinners are part of the grocery company's 24-year-old tradition called Feast of Sharing, a project that serves a big holiday feast to anyone who would like to attend. And it's free. No tickets. Every person who wants a meal will enjoy as much food as he or she likes. And if they need transportation to the dinner, the T in Fort Worth is offering free passes that day.
But it's not the same kind of Thanksgiving dinner you've seen before, where people stand in long lines. Volunteers from the community work as servers – as in, the guests are seated and volunteers take the meals to them. If they want seconds and thirds, volunteers go get them. If they want to wait a couple of hours and then eat another meal, volunteers will get that, too.
This special dinner comes from a 45-foot-long mobile kitchen that H-E-B outfitted to generate 2,500 meals per hour. It will travel all over the state in November and December to stage Feast of Sharing in 30 cities.
The numbers are impressive: for the Fort Worth feast alone, the mobile kitchen will prepare 2,000 pounds sliced turkey breast; 1,500 pounds of cornbread dressing; 80 gallons giblet gravy; 1,500 pounds each of mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables; 60 gallons cranberry sauce; 6,000 dinner rolls; and 1,000 pumpkin pies.
The Fort Worth dinner will take place on November 6 at Will Rogers Memorial Center at the Amon G. Carer, Jr. Exhibits Building; and the Dallas feast will be on November 8 at the Centennial Building in Fair Park. The feast hours are 2 pm until 7 pm at both sites.
Not only is this event not a food line, it's a full-on celebration for the season. Musical entertainment is a huge part of the festivity, and Santa is there for free photos with kids. As one of the Central Market staffers told me, it's touching when a mom, with tears in her eyes, tells you that the photo of her children with Santa means the world to her because she has no other pictures of her kids.
"We want to make a difference on one day, and it's about more than feeding people," Austin Jourde, GM of the Fort Worth store, said. "We're having a party and letting people have fun."
The dinner guests will be served in other ways, as well. Dozens of social service agencies will be on hand to distribute information and help people in need find assistance they're missing. Among these are the Tarrant County Homeless Coalition, Tarrant Area Food Bank, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Legal Aid of North West Texas, the United Way, American Red Cross, North Texas Food Bank and Dallas Public Libraries.
I'm hoping plenty of us get out and help; hundreds of volunteers are required to pull this off. A small team of friends from Texas Toast Culinary Tours (my other job) and Fort Worth Foodie magazine will donate a little of our time to help, and we'd love to see more of our friends there doing the same. I think of it as one step to getting the season underway in a fashion that leaves no room for any bah-humbug.
Want to volunteer? Call the store, 817-989-4700 or click here.
Here are some other things happening at Feast of Sharing;
* Kids' Zone play area will include bounce houses, face-painting, storytelling and time with Santa Claus.
* Live entertainment will include area musicians, school bands and choral groups, church choirs and more.
* Harris Methodist will be on hand to give flu shots.
* Free parking is offered.
What's not to celebrate?

Iowa has established itself as a leader in energy conservation and clean energy over the last three decades. Iowa is widely recognized for its wind and biofuels production and its exemplary utility-led energy efficiency programs. This report explores how Iowa can continue on its path to energy independence and also lead in addressing the global crisis of our time — climate change.
As Iowa develops its statewide energy plan, the state of Iowa must include low-cost and easy to implement measures that will help Iowa achieve energy independence, create jobs, and strengthen local economies. By adopting measures discussed in the Energy Assessment Report, and other sound policies and programs, Iowa can lead the nation and help create a clean energy economy.
The solarfoundation.org has compiled solar job statistics for each state in the United States for 2015. The following is a snapshot for Iowa:

Not sure if this is a question for super user or not, and if it isn't then I'll gladly delete and repost in the correct area...
But I was wondering why wireless networks are defined based upon the networks name and not an id?
To better explain:
I recently set up a family members wireless network to use the same network name as my own network name but with a different password.. What I found was all my devices/laptops/computers that were connected to my network would then try to connect to this new network when in range but would fail as the password wasn't correct for the network.
So why is it not possible to have two wireless networks with the same name?

Read an Excerpt
Diary of an Airborne Ranger is indeed a unique literary
work. It is the day-by-day story of a nineteen-year-old
youth's one-year odyssey into manhood. It is unique
because it is not written in the perspective of an aging
veteran recalling his warrior years through memories and
recollections softened and mellowed by the ravages of
time. Frank Johnson's diary is the compelling and
refreshingly honest portrayal of a young man's introduction
to war, with all the fearless bravado, unquestioned
patriotism, intense loyalty, raw courage, and lost innocence
that one can get only from being there. There are
no pretenses here. What you see is exactly what you get.
When Frank Johnson arrived in South Vietnam in the
fall of 1969, the war, for all intents and purposes, had
already peaked. "Vietnamization'' was the new buzz word,
and Richard Nixon was keeping his promise by announcing
troop withdrawals and a reduction in U.S. forces. To
those of us who were there, the first indications of an army
betrayed were just beginning to surface. No longer was
there talk of defeating the enemy and achieving a just and
final victory. Withdrawing with honor and grace became
an acceptable alternative. To those young men just arriving
in-country came the impossible task of covering our "withdrawal.''
They knew that they would never savor the laurels
of total victory. There would be no parades, nor would they
be welcomed home in the end. They knew all of this, yet
they still volunteered to perform this impossible task.
Their actual mission was threefold: 1) to keep the
enemy at bay by continuing to carry out offensive operations;
2) to provide for a smooth and orderly transition of
U.S. weapons and equipment to our allies, along with the
training and support to enable them to deploy it; and 3) to
avoid alarming our allies by having them discover that
they were in all actuality being abandoned.
Under these somewhat stressful conditions, Frank
Johnson and his teammates were ordered to take the war
to the enemy. Unlike their predecessors, the long-range
reconnaissance patrollers whose primary mission was to
gather intelligence, the Rangers were told to go out and
initiate contact with the enemy. The army doctrine behind
this gross misuse of five- to twelve-man reconnaissance
teams was the doctrine of "force multipliers.'' Simply
put, this meant to do more and risk less with smaller
numbers of soldiers. The obvious benefit to our side was
experiencing fewer friendly casualties while still maintaining
an acceptable attrition rate among enemy personnel.
The detriment was solely to the soldiers tasked to
accept the risk. Remember, this was an increasingly
unpopular war back home. Frank Johnson and his fellow
Rangers were just such soldiers.
As you read through the pages of this amazing work you
will find yourself wondering, "Why did they keep going
back out and doing what they did?'' The answer will surprise
you. You see, it was not that same sense of duty and
honor that had brought many of them into the service. It
was not the same patriotism that had inspired their fathers
and grandfathers before them. And it was definitely not
power nor the promise of wealth that sent these young men
into harm's way, day after day, even when they knew the
war was already lost. "Why then,'' you ask? Well, let me tell
you! It was camaraderie, the love that one teammate has for
another. It was their motto, "Rangers don't leave Rangers
behind!'' This was not only their motto, but the guiding
force that dictated their ethics, their courage, and their loyalty
to one another. Can you understand the power of such
feelings . . . the emotion? It is a powerful motivator.
Throughout Frank Johnson's diary, the recurring theme
of camaraderie, brotherly love, and living up to the Ranger
motto is demonstrated. This was a glorious thing that all
warriors experienced to some degree or another during the
Vietnam War, perhaps to a greater extent among the small,
elite special-operations units that so often stood alone.
When you read through each page of this book, forgive the
language and the style--the author was just a kid out of
high school when he penned it. There will be no literary
awards or prizes coming his way. But if you want to under-stand
what heroes are made of, and why so many of our
young men come home with emotional baggage they can
never shed, then read this book from cover to cover. When
you're finished, go back and read it again--more slowly

The Franchise Owner's most trusted news source
Over the next two weeks there will be several "pure play" restaurant franchisors that will report earnings: Dunkin Brands (DNKN), Burger King (BKW), and DineEquity (DIN). It should also be mentioned that Sonic Drive In (SONC) and Domino's (DPZ), which are both 90% franchised, reported in last week.
Each of these have moved towards (DIN, BKW) or have always been a hundred percent franchised model (DNKN) for years. Wall Street likes "capital light" line of thinking for corporations as well as the thought that "franchisees are exposed to commodity risk, while the franchisor is not" logic lines. Lofty stock valuations typically follow.
That raises questions for investors.
Franchisors rarely talk about this. In earnings calls, there is typically not a question from the analyst community on this. Perhaps analysts anticipate resistance from the company. McDonald's (MCD) has presented a franchisee owner/operator cash flow (EBITDA) narrative on several recent calls, and Domino's (DPZ) once did it as well.
In the past, the few questions asked by the sell side revolved around (a) same store sales levels, (b) stores opening and closing or (c) franchisor bad debt expense from uncollected royalties. While these factors are interesting, they only collaterally get at the true health of a franchise system.
Here are several factors that should be asked by the sell side community and reported by companies in order to improve investor disclosure:
These are all metrics that the franchisor has or should have, that could be reported either annually, or on a trailing twelve months basis.

Hey it's true.
It's Cole isnt it....
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't a person with a hacksaw outside your window... GANGED UP WITH FREDDY FAZBEAR ABOUT TO RIP OUT YOUR LUNGS FEED THEM TO THE ANIMATRONICS AND KILL YOUR MOTHER WITH THE HACKSAW SLOWLY BUT SURELY.....
Supernatural in an nutshell.
Poor Harry and Bianca, orphans of the world. Love DF
Beware very small spoiler for book 13 :
Just because your paranoid doesn't mean there isn't a ghost beside you with tears in its eyes
Just because your paranoid doesn't mean there isn't a ghost beside you with tears in its eyes
I used to quote the original one all the time but now I can't because I remember that one in Ghost Story and it makes me sad. D:
Very true
Now I want to rewatch the series.
I like reading these posters
I loves that quotation.

|Polar Biology 33: 1719- 1731 (2010)
|The study of the structural and functional properties of key components of polar marine ecosystems has received increased attention in order to better understand the ecological consequences of future sea temperature rise and seasonal ice retraction. Owing to this purpose, during the ATOS-Arctic cruise, held in July 2007 in the framework of the 2007-2008 International Polar Year, we studied the respiratory carbon demand of mesozooplankton as well as their contribution to the regeneration of inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus (NH4-N and PO4-P) via excretion. The studied area comprised several stations along a latitudinal gradient in the East Greenland current, plus a network of stations NW of the Svalbard islands. The specific respiratory carbon losses and phosphorus (PO4-P) excretion rates were similar or slightly higher than some reports for Arctic mesozooplankton, but the nitrogen (NH4-N) excretion rates were higher by a factor of 3 when compared with previous data sets. The mesozooplankton respiratory losses were equivalent to 23% of primary production, and at turn zooplankton contributed by excretion to more than 50% of the N and P required by phytoplankton. Although C:N, C:P and N:P metabolic atomic quotients almost coincided with the average Redfield's stoichiometric ratios, the low C:N values when compared to previous reports suggested a predominance of protein-related metabolic substrates. The potential consequences of changes observed in the C:N, N:P and C:P metabolic ratios of mesozooplankton for Arctic marine ecosystems are discussed. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.

I tried akgsdflfja; I don't really know how cars or perspective work but I wanted to give a try at drawing Mutt from Motorcity for a while now. It was a good occasion to try something different.
I spent more time fixing the perspective than anything else and I'm not completely satisfied but it's my first serious drawing of a vehicle I tried skjdgs; Critiques are always welcome.

hi im new
I think you should try more different things-like this- than only these chibis and such. ^o^
I love this piece!!!!! <3
I love this piece!!!!! <3
really really awesome
Man why is she not a Real life car ? Maby Its because she would break every cae regulation ever.
You pulled this off great!!! <3 <3
sweet fan art! This show totally deserves a second season.
this is fricken epic
The cars remind me of cars from Hot Wheels Acceleracers, World Race and Battle Force 5.
i want a car like that
i love seeing the motorcity fever spread around~
i love seeing the motorcity fever spread around~
U did great the lines on the car could be a bit smoother but in all other aspects it perfect
look at that fuckin angle
this is amazing.
this is amazing.
Wow, this is amazing!
Much better than I could hope to do, at least.
Much better than I could hope to do, at least.
The thing I like most about Mutt is that crazy gear shift that Mike has to deal with!
The "Maze-shifter"? Yeah, that looks like a pain in the ass but bad-ass nonetheless.
what program did you use to made this?
gosh this is really fantastic!
*w* So amazing desu~ I cant draw cars to save my life....
This is awesome! I think you did great on both the car itself and the perspective!
This looks like a page out of a comic.
Which is a good thing!
Which is a good thing!
This so reminds me of car-arts from when I was a kid--every boy and many girls drew them, and custom-designed them, during the heyday of the "muscle-car" era in the late 1960's and early 1970's---I am so old~~~~//shot///
I am waiting for it to transform.
I think the colors as always are done really well, but the perspective does need some work. The right side of the car(if you were the one driving it) is too much bigger than the left side. If anything, it'd be smaller. So, proportion needs to be in check with the perspective. You also did a great job showing the motion of the car, and with lighting.
Ahhhh motorcity! This is so awesome!
You know you're art is getting popular when you have two spam comments in a row.
Anyway, this is well done! I love the way you made the car look like its moving really fast!
Anyway, this is well done! I love the way you made the car look like its moving really fast!
Awesome show, awesome car, totally awesome picture man!
It's AMAZING!
the sense of movement is amazing !!
love it
love it
Reminds of that Hot Wheels cartoon I used to watch when I was little
OOoooooo! Shiny!
I just discovered that show today actually. It's freakin mathematical.
Trust me, it's in your soul
i'm normally not into cars, but this is just awesome
this is awesome, you did well with the perspective.
So awesome car! 8D
this looks amazing!! I love the style
Kinda reminded me of kryptonite.. Just saw a season of Smallville
Idk what your so concerned with, its wahahahaaaay better then anything I could of drawn, cars are nooot easy! And this is awesome!
I really love how your posting different sorts of art lately Kawiko! This is AWESOME!!

Hepburn/Peppard/Ebsen/Neal ~ Breakfast At Tiffany's
No film better utilizes Audrey Hepburn's flighty charm and svelte beauty than this romantic adaptation of Truman Capote's novella. Hepburn's urban sophisticate Holly Golightly, an enchanting neurotic living off the gifts of gentlemen, is a bewitching figure in designer dresses and costume jewelry. George Peppard is her upstairs neighbor, a struggling writer and "kept" man financed by a steely older woman (Patricia Neal). His growing friendship with the lonely Holly soon turns to love and threatens the delicate balance of both of their compromised lives. Taking liberties with Capote's bittersweet story, director Blake Edwards and screenwriter George Axelrod turn New York into a city of lovers and create a poignant portrait of Holly, a frustrated romantic with a secret past and a hidden vulnerability. Composer Henry Mancini earned Oscars for the hit song "Moon River" and his tastefully romantic score. The only sour note in the whole film is Mickey Rooney's demeaning performance as the apartment's Chinese manager, an offensively overdone stereotype even in 1961. The rest of the film has weathered the decades well. Edwards's elegant yet light touch, Axelrod's generous screenplay, and Hepburn's mix of knowing experience and naiveté combine to create one of the great screen romances and a refined slice of high society bohemian chic. --Sean Axmaker --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

My dad made me watch it this past weekend and I fell in love with it! Unlike most romantic comedies made today, both main characters are broke. It doesn't follow the mold of: poor/average girl falls for rich guy blah blah blah or the other way around. It was funny (Mickey Rooney's character was HILARIOUS!) and sad (when Holly finds out about Fred) and sappy (the last 20 minutes) all at the same time.
This movie is great for anyone, whether you saw it the first time around or you're a "late viewer" like me.
But her most iconic turn was as Holly Golightly, a frivolous young woman with a highly sensitive core. Hepburn is a ball of shimmering charm here, whether she's setting hats on fire or chasing nameless cats through the rain, and she's able to shine brightly enough to obscure a few flaws (such as Mickey Rooney). The other actors do serviceable jobs, but she's undeniablythe star.
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" is a daily ritual for Holly Golightly (Hepburn), a social butterfly who hosts parties, entertains drunken men for their fifty-dollartips, and dreams of owning a horse farm in Mexico with her brother. When kept-man Paul Varjak (George Peppard) moves into a neighboring apartment -- courtesy of his rich patroness -- he is instantly enchanted by the ditzy, sweet-natured Holly.
But for all Holly's fun, Paul starts to realize that all is not well with her. She's desperate to marry a spectacularly wealthy man, parties with wild crowds, visits a notorious gangster in jail, and hides that she was an illiterate teen bride to a hick doctor. As Holly's life starts to deteriorate, Paul sets out to show her what her life will be like without real love.
Reportedly Truman Capote wasn't happy with the movie version of "Breakfast At Tiffany's" -- they changed the ending from his short story's, and he didn't like Hepburn as Holly Golightley. But this is one case where the movie's quality is not reflected by what the author thought of it -- taken on its own merits, it's a fine chocolate with a bittersweet center.
Much of the movie is devoted to the friendship (and unspoken attraction) between Holly and Paul, and how it disrupts their comfortable shallow lives.Read more ›
This is a truly gorgeous romantic film, a real classic. A film really you can watch many many times without getting bored. Since 1961, I'm sure lots of people agree and have been watching this film again and again and again during this 40 years. Oscar winning music, beautiful theme song 'Moon River' meets with gorgeous romantic story.
"Moon river wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style someday
You dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're going I'm going your way
Two drifters off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbows end
Waiting round the band
My huckleberry friend, moon river
And me..."
Such charming may wonder you ever find a counterpart from nowadays. Overall, buy it own it watch it feel it and re-watch it.

Eddie Murphy to Host 84th Academy Awards on ABC in February
Comedian Eddie Murphy was named to host the 84th Academy Awards, as Oscar organizers chose a successful film and television comic after viewer losses in the previous telecast.
Producers Brett Ratner and Don Mischer announced the appointment of Murphy, 50, star of films including "Norbit" and the Oscar-winning "Dreamgirls," in a statement today.
The audience for the yearly telecast waxes and wanes with the popularity of films. At the 2010 show, 41.7 million viewers watched to see if James Cameron's "Avatar" would win best picture. "The Hurt Locker" ultimately captured the award.
The Oscars telecast is scheduled for Feb. 26, 2012, on Walt Disney Co.'s ABC network. The show is typically one of the most-watched U.S. TV events, after the Super Bowl and the National Football League playoffs.
The February 2011 telecast, hosted by actors Anne Hathaway and James Franco, posted a 9.1 percent drop in viewers, according to Nielsen data. Top honors for 2010 films, including best picture and best actor, went to "The King's Speech."
Murphy, a former stand-up comic, transitioned to movies, including the "Beverly Hills Cops" films, in the 1980s after joining the cast of television's "Saturday Night Live." He is featured in "Tower Heist," a Ratner-directed comedy scheduled for release on Nov. 4.

Panamericano Shares Sink Amid $1.5 Billion Rescue
Banco Panamericano SA, the Brazilian lender controlled by media mogul Silvio Santos, sank 30 percent and bonds tumbled as the central bank began probing accounting irregularities after a 2.5 billion reais ($1.5 billion) rescue.
The stock dropped to 4.77 reais in Sao Paulo, a fourth straight decline. The yield on Panamericano's 8.5 percent bonds due in 2020 soared 182 basis points, or 1.82 percentage points, to 9.22 percent, according to Trace. Shares of the smallest publicly-traded banks in Brazil fell as the investigation raised concern over industry accounting norms.
"People don't know what the extent of the case is," said Cornel Bruhin, who oversees $600 million of emerging-market corporate bonds in Zurich at Clariden Leu AG. "Is there more to come? What are the potential risks? It's too early to tell."
The central bank is investigating whether Panamericano executives could face liability, said an official who asked that his name not be used in accordance with government policy. Brazil's central bank found "inconsistencies" in Panamericano's accounts during its routine supervision of the financial system, according to a statement posted on its website today.
Six Weeks
Bank regulators first identified a problem six weeks ago based on June 30 accounts when they noticed discrepancies between the volume of credit the bank said it sold and other banks said they bought, central bank Supervision Director Alvir Hoffmann said at a press conference in Brasilia. The central bank probe may cover as much as four years, he said, adding that the central bank hasn't determined when the irregularities began.
The investigation will lead to an internal study on how banks negotiate the sales of groups of loans to ensure a bank doesn't sell them more than once or sell and then keep them on its books, Hoffmann said. The central bank has no evidence of similar problems at other banks, he said.
Panamericano, a Sao Paulo-based bank focused on personal credit and mortgages, received funding yesterday from its controlling shareholder Grupo Silvio Santos, which tapped Brazil's bank-financed deposit insurance fund, known as FGC. Panamericano replaced its chief executive officer and shuffled its board after uncovering "accounting inconsistencies" that misrepresented the company's assets, according to a statement to regulators.
With the funds, the bank's cash position rose to 3.8 billion reais, enough to maintain solvency, according to an e-mailed statement from the bank today. Credit and investment operations are continuing as normal, the bank said.
Public Funds
The loan is the second-largest in FGC's history after a bailout of 3 billion reais to Banco Bamerindus do Brasil SA in 1997. That same year, London-based HSBC Holdings Plc acquired control of Bamerindus in a transaction worth $1 billion.
No public funds are being used in the operation to stabilize Panamericano, the central bank said.
Securities regulators and shareholders are also conducting investigations, said a person familiar with the matter, who declined to be identified because the probes are confidential.
Brazil's Senate Justice Committee called central bank President Henrique Meirelles to a hearing on Panamericano, according to a statement posted on the senate's website. The committee also invited Caixa Economica Federal's President Maria Fernanda Ramos Coelho. The central bank called a press conference in Brasilia for 2:30 p.m. New York time.
"We would expect investors to become concerned with other bank's shares, particularly mid-sized banks, until there is more clarity if this is contained to Panamericano, or if other banks might also be subject to central bank's scrutiny," analysts Roberto Attuch and Fabio Zagatti from Barclays Capital wrote in a report today.
Limited Fallout
The analysts said they expect the fallout from Panamericano's rescue to be limited because the controlling shareholder acted in time to restore liquidity, a state-owned bank is an owner and Panamericano is small in size.
Caixa paid 739 million reais for a 35 percent stake in Panamericano in December. Panamericano had total assets of 11.8 billion reais at the end of the first quarter, and a credit portfolio of 10.5 billion reais, compared with 9.9 billion reais in the previous quarter, according to its website. The lender ranks as Brazil's 21st largest bank by assets, according to the central bank.
New CEO
The cash injection aims to "preserve current levels of capital," Panamericano said in a filing yesterday. Panamericano named Celso Antunes da Costa as chief executive officer, replacing Rafael Palladino, and seven new executive directors, according to the filing.
An official at Brasilia-based Caixa who asked not to be identified declined to comment. The securities regulator based in Rio de Janeiro and known as CVM said in a statement it doesn't comment on specific cases. Deloitte & Touche LLP, Panamericano's auditor, declined to comment, according to an e-mailed statement.
Banco Industrial e Comercial SA tumbled 5.4 percent to 15 reais, Banco Pine SA fell 2.6 percent to 13.50 reais, Banco Cruzeiro do Sul SA slid 1.3 percent to 14.95 reais and Parana Banco SA lost 4.4 percent, the most since June, to 14 reais.
"The market could start challenging their accounting practices, provisioning criteria," Marcelo Telles, an analyst at Credit Suisse, wrote in a note to clients today. Smaller banks "will be under the scrutiny of regulators to adopt more conservative accounting practices, requiring extra capital and limiting their growth capacity," he said.
Bigger Banks
The country's bigger banks rose, with Itau Unibanco Holding SA, Latin America's largest bank by market value, increasing 1.2 percent to 42.85 reais. Banco Bradesco SA, Brazil's second-biggest bank by market value, rose 1.4 percent to 36.50 reais.
Grupo Silvio Santos said yesterday it sought funding from FGC, which was set up by Brazil's Monetary Council in 1995 with financing from banks that operate in Brazil and can be tapped in the event of intervention, liquidation, bankruptcy or central bank-declared insolvency, according to its website.
The Sao Paulo-based group, whose holdings include television stations, a cosmetics company and an electronics retailer, put up assets as collateral for the loans from the deposit insurance fund, according to the Panamericano statement.
Silvio Santos, 79, known for his appearances on Sunday afternoon variety shows such as a Brazilian equivalent of "Name That Tune" on his SBT TV chain, is willing to sell assets if necessary to repay the loan to rescue the bank, Antonio Carlos Bueno, director of Brazil's deposit insurance fund, said at a press conference in Sao Paulo today.
Greek Immigrant
Santos, the son of a Greek immigrant who came to Brazil in the 1920s, started selling plastic document holders at 14 in the streets of downtown Rio de Janeiro, and later sold watches, pens, books and other items on the ferries that link cities along Rio's Guanabara Bay.
Moody's Investors Service placed Panamericano on review for a possible downgrade of its credit rating today because of the "rapid drop in market valuation" over the past few days, the announcement of the capital injection and the replacement of the management team, according to an e-mailed statement.
The stock dropped 11 percent in the two days before the bank released last night's statement to regulators. The company's bonds due in 2020 fell 11.9 cents to 95.5 cents on the dollar today after sinking as low as 80 cents earlier. Panamericano sold $500 million of the notes in international markets in April at a price of 99 cents.

$new_query = new WP_Query but I find that the result array I am getting is empty of values (I've checked it with print_r() and found that only the keys are there).
Is what I am wanting to do possible? And if so am I missing a global variable of some sort?

I am having difficulty passing data from AWeber forms to WordPress pages. I receive this error message after the AWeber form data has been submitted and it redirects to the WordPress page where I would like my data to be displayed using PHP:
"Not Found. Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help."
I have the Short Exec PHP plugin installed which works fine for processing PHP code. I've looked at some of the messages from over a year ago that said that there was a fix by modifying the .htaccess file, but when I tried to use the sample code, it did not work for me. Can someone please help me get AWeber to pass data successfully to WordPress?

Hey, everyone! Thanks for any help on this in advance!
I'm trying to figure out how to put the slideshow on my front page so that the slideshow is to the right of the text I have. I tried a float right in the CSS, but it still hasn't worked. I'm hosting the site on a temporary server, so I can't link the site, but I checked and didn't find any issues with a debugger and validator.
Thanks for any help.
