Greenpeace launches a public campaign in downtown Auckland urging Sealord to stop buying tuna for its canned products from companies using fishing methods which kill endangered sharks, turtles, juvenile tuna and other ocean species. Sealord, and other New Zealand brands of canned tuna, buy tuna which is caught using purse seine nets combined with fish aggregation devices (FADs). FADs are like marine death traps as they attract all sorts of ocean life, not just tuna, making the bycatch of purse seine fisheries up to 10 times higher than other more sustainable methods.This is threatening tuna stocks in the Pacific and the health of the ocean.

Emlak Konut Gayrimenkul Yatirim Ortakligi AS (EKGYO TI), Turkey's largest property developer, fell 3.2 percent to 2.39 liras.

Q&A: Frenchy Fuqua
For 36 years, John "Frenchy" Fuqua (right) held the Pittsburgh Steelers single-game rushing record with a 218-yard effort against the Philadelphia Eagles before it was broken in 2006. But for 40 years he's held on to a secret which he will not break coveneant: what really happened during the Immaculate Reception.
But he talks plenty about the play itself, as he did Saturday at the Heinz History Center for the opening of the Gridiron Glory exhibition, which, among other artifacts, publicly displays the ball from that play for the first time ever, offering Fuqua his first chance to touch it -- or maybe the second.Q: You're so closely associated with the Immaculate Reception to the point that it completely overshadows a really productive career that you had with the Steelers. What do you consider to be your greatest moment with the team?
FUQUA: Definitely the Immaculate Reception – It's lasted forty years, which lets me know that I'm a senior citizen [laughs]. But to hear people talk about it, 40 years later the way they do, it lets me know that there is a signature, a comma, a period to my career. It's going to last forever. So I'm proud of it, to have been a part of it, its something that I love talking about, and it shows that the Frenchman can keep a secret.
Q: You were the intended receiver on the play – what would you have done if you'd actually caught it?
FUQUA: I'd have been a hero! What was supposed to happen was I was supposed to catch the ball and get out of bounds. Then the pressure would've been on [kicker Roy] Gerela. But I often think about that ... suppose I'd have caught it, suppose I would've ran it in – a lot of things would've happened: No. 1. There wouldn't have been an Immaculate Reception. But we had a great team and great individuals. It was meant for us to win that game. I don't think if I'd have caught the ball, or if I hadn't have caught the ball – it was meant for us to win that game. A lot of people say – especially out in Oakland – that I touched the ball. They don't know.
Q: The play has stood the test of time because it of the mystery surrounding it. Do you think it if it happened today -- with the hyper-coverage of the NFL and a million camera angles -- it would be as big of a deal?
FUQUA: I can tell you this here from the bottom of my heart, what happened on that play was truly Immaculate. It had to be, because of 40 years. I have a cliché: I'll never tell. I'm quite sure you've seen it a hundred times yourself; I've seen it in slow motion frame-by-frame – you would have had to be Frenchy Fuqua to know what happened. I'm so proud of Frenchy Fuqua – who has the big mouth – I'm so proud of myself for knowing that I can keep a secret. I will carry it to the grave with me.
Q: You were also famously known for your loud outfits – which was your favorite, and do you ever pull them out?
FUQUA: I can't get in much of it anymore, but I think it had to be my count outfit – skin-tight lavender jumpsuit pink cow belt with silver studs in it, glass cane musketeer hat with three plumes in it, and my white gloves and my buccaneer boots. I had an opportunity to walk on water – but only one man could really do that – my fish always died. I got 80 pieces of mail in reference to that, I took it to [Steelers p.r. man] Joe Gordon and said Joe – I'm getting hate mail! – he said, 'keep it up, Frenchy.'

(NEW YORK, NY) -- Adult Film Star Joanna Angel will meet with fans and sign autographs at the WantedList Booth at Erotica LA, held at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Friday, June 23rd through Sunday, June 25th.
Joanna will be signing on Friday from 4:00pm until 7:00pm, and then on Sunday from 1:00pm until 6:00pm. Joanna will also be signing from noon until 1:00 at the Rock n' Roll Bingo Booth.
Joanna Angel will also be dancing at Pink Diamonds in North Hollywood on Friday night and Saturday night. Show times are 10:00pm, 12:00am and 2:00am.
Joanna will be promoting her brand new movie, BurningAngel's premiere gonzo release, Cum On My Tattoo. The movie consists of five scenes directed by Joanna Angel that feature hardcore anal sex, 3- way action, ATM, interracial sex and cum locales like you've never seen-not to mention tattooed girls you won't find anywhere else on the planet and beyond. Shot exclusively in New York City, each scene is loaded with a sexy tattooed lady, hot sex, a cum shot that only a BurningAngel production could create, and a healthy dose of that trademark New York attitude, all set to music by notorious rock n roll band, Buckcherry. With each cum shot dribbling all over a different tattoo, Burning Angel has unveiled a fetish that has yet to be seen in porn. Go to BurningAngelEnt.com to check out the trailer.
About Burning Angel
Established in 2002, BurningAngel.com is a unity of sex and rock n' roll, an aspect lacking from other porn or music websites on the Internet. The attitude of BurningAngel.com is truly punk, and this ethic emanates from the content. BurningAngel.com is a reflection of founder Joanna Angel: A very dirty, very intelligent and sarcastic individual with a genuine love for indie music and pornography. As a woman, Joanna looks to send the message she believes in: there is nothing wrong with pornography. It has become her personal vendetta to run a website where other females could experience the same feeling. Her career in porno only began there... It now spans across several mediums, including photos and videos, and of course the ever-present plans-in-progress, because Joanna knows there's still much to be discovered.
BurningAngel.com features over 100 girls, hailing Joanna as their queen bee, yet also regarding her as a fellow worker - although undoubtedly the leader, Joanna also pitches in to produce the honey. These girls are not your average porn stars - they're the hot tattooed chicks you see at the supermarket, around your college campus, or hanging out at the record store. These are girls with talents, ambitions, and hobbies who talk about their day-to-day activities in their online journals on BurningAngel.com.
BurningAngel.com includes a wide variety of interviews with bands on both major and independent labels. Some interviews include Marilyn Manson, Burning Brides, the Bouncing Souls, Bad Religion, Cky, the Libertines, Bad Religion, the Used, the Locust, Bleeding Through, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, Stellastarr*, Bloc Party, the Transplants, Hard-Fi, and many, many others. Online web content also includes, photo galleries, streaming videos, and essays. To date, the "members area" features over 10,000 pictures of over 100 BurningAngel.com girls, and over 20 videos.
BurningAngel.com hosts numerous live events and parties, mainly in nightclubs in the Lower East side. These events include live bands, burlesque performances, and are hosted by well known DJs in NYC's underground culture. Ba members and fans are invited to meet and drink with the girls of Burning Angel.com. Website: BurningAngel.com

By Five Boro Sports
The last time Bishop Ford and McClancy met on the soccer field, the match ended in controversy, a concussion was suffered by Crusaders' keeper Peter Pipia, the Falcons exchanged taunts with the home fans and McClancy athletic director Gerry O'Riordan and coach Adrian Caballero were ejected.
It ignited plenty of tough talk between both teams leading up to the latest showdown.
"It got us hyped up and gave us a boost of energy," McClancy's center midfielder Alexis Escobar said. "We had to win this game."
This one, at Aviator Field, won by the Crusaders, 5-1, had plenty of fireworks, too – red cards were handed out to Ford's Peter Panousopoulos and James Calcedo and six yellow cards were distributed, five to the feisty Falcons (8-3-1 CHSAA Brooklyn/Queens 'B'), who attempted to sneak in an extra man twice.
The difference, Caballero said, was that referee Hakan Baydere made a point of not toleration any extra curricular activities by punishing any and all illegal acts.
"He wasn't afraid to pull out his cards early," Caballero said.
Ford coach Barney Cassidy, meanwhile, downplayed the possibility of a repeat. "I didn't expect that," he said. "We've played some good games (against them) on the field."
Escobar made the loudest statement of the afternoon with his right foot, scoring two goals and setting up a third in the Crusaders' impressive victory, a win that has them all alone atop Brooklyn/Queens 'B' with one game remaining, at home against St. John's Prep on Friday. It also puts aside the nastiness of the previous game among the two division powers.
"I'm glad," said Caballero, the second-year coach. "The school should be represented with class. I wanted to make sure my team concentrated on the game and nothing else."
There was plenty of chippy play over the first 40 minutes. As was the case in the first game on Oct. 10, Ford went after Pipia, who sustained a concussion and had two stitches into his lips after colliding with Panousopoulos and falling onto his head. On Wednesday, the first goal scored by the Falcons in the eighth minute came after Pipia misplayed a long shot by Calcedo and was beaten to the loose ball by Panousopoulos.
During the week Caballero made a point to his players to remain composed. When a few fans blurted out insulting remarks, Caballero silenced them. Pipia held strong, making several key saves despite being knocked down or shoved on occasion, until his teammates found their rhythm.
"Once or twice it happens," he said. "It's part of the game. Maybe some of them were tough plays."
Escobar's through ball to Steven Jimenez started the turnaround, as he chipped it past keeper Luis Castillo in the 30th minute. Only a minute later, Panousopoulos was sent off for taking a swing at fullback Nick Devito. It certainly changed the complexion of the game – Ford was not only playing with a man down, but was without Panousopoulos, one of its talented strikers.
"I didn't see it," Cassidy, the sixth-year coach, said, "so I can't say I questioned it."
McClancy (8-2-0) built on its momentum when Heiner Greenberg scored on a fantastic individual play, dribbling around Calcedo and TJ Ecock before ripping home a shot from 20 yards out through the stiff wind.
Twice before halftime, Ford attempted to sneak an 11th man on; illegally trying to substitute for Panousopoulos. Cassidy was handed a yellow card for the infraction.
"It speaks for itself," Caballero said. "That's my comment."
After halftime, the Crusaders poured it on. Escobar scored in the 49th minute, dribbling through the Falcons' defense, pushing the lead to two. When Calcedo was sent off for a second bookable offense, Ford was down to nine men and with no recipe for success. Escobar scored his second goal in the 68th minute , rifling a shot inside the far post from the seat of his pants. Julian Ospina added another on a header six minutes from full time.
"This is a feeling I never had before," Escobar said. "I can't explain how happy I am."
His teammates are just as excited to have him around. Last year Escobar tore the ACL, cracked his femur bone and fractured his meniscus in his right knee. The Crusaders never got on track, losing in the quarterfinals.
"I wanted to put my jersey on so bad," he said. "It was killing me, especially when they were down."
Escobar saved his finest performance yet for the biggest game of the season, creating opportunities for others and finishing off plays himself.
"He's one of our cornerstones," Caballero said "He's a pillar of this team. He's a great kid. He's educated, smart, well-behaved. Everything is 'yes coach, no coach.'"

Location & Map
Morrisey Chalet at Sun Peaks is located on Mountain View Drive, within Mountain View Estates, one of the newer subdivisions in Sun Peaks. Located at the base of Mt. Morrisey, we overlook the 4th hole fairway and have spectacular views of Sundance and Tod Mountain. We are SKI-IN from a number of runs off of Mt Morrisey (including two new runs). With a walk up a hill accross the street, you can ski out down to the Burfield connector or you can walk to the end of the street about 200m away and ski down from there. There is also a resort bus system which takes you to the village every half hour Friday-Sunday and every day during holidays.
The street has very low traffic so your stay will be peaceful and serene. In the summertime, a small stream flows near the back of the property and adds even more natural charm to the setting.
The drive the village is about one minute where you will find parking at the day lodge. Walking will take you about 15 minutes on nice paved paths along the Sun Peaks golf course.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Far is the village from Morrisey Chalet?
|How Far is the village from Morrisey Chalet?
|The village is a 2 min. car ride and roughly a 12 minute walk along a beautiful paved trail (plowed in winter) adjacent to the Sun Peaks golf course.
Ski In / Ski Out?
|Can I ski in and out of your property?
|While a new chair will be built about 100m from the chalet, for now you'll have to drive max. 2 min to the day lodge. You can also ski and walk about 5 minutes to the trail to the Burfield chair. However, you can ski in off Mt Morrisey to right across the street from the chalet off the "Fairways Ski-Back/Home Run" run, which is rated "Green" for easy run. Alternately, you can ski down "Back In Time" or choose one of the two new amazing runs "Lint Trap" and "Tumble Dry" (our favourite), which are rated more difficult.

Lovely Chalet
A FlipKey verified reviewer from Langley
Date: Mar-30-2011
The chalet's beds were very uncomfortable and I wouldn't return myself for that reason. 6 days on a board wreak's pain on the body.
Great mini ski vacation
Rudolf from BC
Date: Feb-03-2011
I was impressed with fast and straight forward booking, very good information for traveling and all other info you need to know when you come to a new place( restaurants, ski shops , groceries shop. rec. centres , doctors,etc.) Chalet was very nice, clean, and spacious. Jacuzzi was a treat after hard day of skiing.Parking in a garage and lots of parking in a centre eliminated remotness.It is a great place for winter family and friends vacation.Only thing what I would suggest,let people know after taking safety deposit and vacation ends when and how is it going to be returned.

I am just starting Django these days but I cannot run this command
django-admin.py startproject myproject
Well, CMD does not prompt to say that this command is not recognized. Instead, it just open up my Sublime with the file django-admin.py open. and of course no folder named myproject is created inside the current folder.
I managed to start a Django project by typing commands like
python C:\Python27\Scripts\django-admin.py startproject myproject
But when I omit the part about the absolute path information of django-admin.py, then the command does not work, saying python cannot find such a file inside the current directory.
is there any way I should try to use shorter commands? (PS: I do have C:\Python27\ and C:\Python27\Scripts\ in the PATH)

Five years later, we are not safer

To The Editor: President Bush relentlessly politicizes 9/11, manipulating our national tragedy into a bid to scare the American people into voting to keep Republicans in office come Nov. 7.
Sadly, the Bush administration has a record of only failure on security.
After five years, here are some facts:
I wonder how many of your readers feel safer now than five years ago. I know that I don't.

text: Current therapeutic modalities have been helpful in treating many patients with ocular surface disease and dysfunctional tear syndrome. But there remains a subset of patients who continue to have signs and symptoms in spite of aggressive lubricant and anti-inflammatory therapy. Accumulating evidence suggests that meibomian gland dysfunction and ocular surface irritation may be related to systemic androgen deficiency or insensitivity, particularly in women. This article presents evidence supporting this hypothesis and an overview of androgen production, diagnosis and treatment of deficiency states.

The jury was unable to reach verdicts on all but one of eight men accused of trying to smuggle liquid bombs onto aircraft in Lucozade and Oasis soft drinks bottles.
The three leaders of the plot, Abdulla Ahmed Ali, 27, Assad Sarwar, 28, and Tanvir Hussain, 27, were found guilty of conspiracy to murder but the jury could not decide whether they planned to attack aircraft or whether they had other targets in mind.
No verdicts were returned on four other men - Ibrahim Savant, 27, Arafat Waheed Khan, 27, Waheed Zaman, 24, and Umar Islam, 24 – all of whom admitted making "suicide" videos but claimed they were part of a stunt to be posted on the website Youtube.
The eighth man, Moahmmed Gulzar, who had been accused of flying in from South Africa on a false passport top control the plot, was acquitted of all charges.
Following a high-level meeting this morning, the Crown Prosecution Service announced that it is to seek a retrial in order to try and prove that the men were targeting aircraft.
Sir Ken Macdonald, the Director of Public Prosecutions, said: "I have today concluded that the prosecution should apply to retry each of these defendants on every count that the recently discharged jury failed to agree upon.
"This will include a count that each defendant conspired to detonate improvised explosive devices on transatlantic passenger aircraft.
"We shall be returning to court to make this application in due course."
The decision follows the controversial end of the five month trial at Woolwich Crown Court in which the jury deliberated for only 11 and a half days over the course of five weeks, during which time one juror sent a note to the judge saying he was getting migraine headaches brought on by the stress of the atmosphere in the jury room.

Enough of the comments about this kid's premature celebration out of high
school, his lack of work ethic, lack of good coaching and (my favorite) poor
parenting as a kid growing up....you posters have NO IDEA what is going on with
Jake OR the program. There seem to be so many judgmental BYU and Utah fans (why
the Utes even care is beyond me).
So things didn't play out for this kid the way he had dreamed. Big deal. Have any of you ever banked on some dream going big only to see it fall flat? Anyone ever celebrate prematurely?? I say let the kid go do what he wants. His life has no bearing on yours or mine. I wish him well and am happy for him that he got his degree.

Jake will be competing with four other quarterbacks, but none of them have ever taken a snap in an actual game. He should have a good supporting cast around him. This could be a good opportunity for him.

Jake did great under Robert Anae. He set all kinds of records as a freshman at
BYU. One can only wonder what would have happened if Anae had not headed to
Arizona, but that is sand under the bridge (sand, in Arizona at least).
I am not surprised he did not do well on a team with little or no talent surrounding him.
Best of luck Mr. Heaps. I hope you have a fantastic year in Miami and fulfill your dream of becoming an NFL QB.

Very strange chain-of-events. He is not good enough for "red dancing shoes" U but is good enough for a perennial national champion. It looks like Miami still passes the ball. Charlie Weis from the Patriots realizes the "handwriting is on the wall" for the new type of running quarterback even though he coached Tom Brady. Charlie has to win quickly or a new coach will bring in a runner for him.

LENS EXPLORATION: 150-500mm F5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM
Intro If you want to photograph all kinds of subjects from long distances—from wildlife to athletes to fast-moving vehicles—then […]
Intro If you want to photograph all kinds of subjects from long distances—from wildlife to athletes to fast-moving vehicles—then […]
The Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | A lens is simply amazing. This standard field of view, fast-aperture, full-frame, prime lens combines outstanding sharpness, fast autofocus, in a lens that is built with a singular vision on performance.
I have been photographing nighttime landscapes for about 20 years now capturing images of star trails like the one pictured […]
On a recent trip to Alaska I brought along a lens on loan from Sigma, the 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS MACRO HSM lens. Apparently this lens a very popular lens in the super zoom multi-purpose category but the question is, how would do on a wildlife shoot? When I was packing for my trip I remember thinking that I didn't know how the lens would perform but at least the lens is so tiny it wouldn't take up a lot of room in my bag.
Honestly it was my first time using this lens, or any type of super zoom lens, so I didn't have a clue of what to expect but as the first series of images popped on the screen I was pleasantly surprised but when I zoomed in to see the sharpness at 100% the feeling changed to one of mild shock!
The Sigma 150-500mm F5-6.3 zoom lens offers great versatatility and reach in a compact package, perfect for on-the-go wildlife and birding phtoography.
The magic of Hawaii, and the reason to keep returning time and time again, lies beyond the well-manicured resorts and pristine sandy beaches. The spirit of the land, or aina as the natives call it, is in the towering cliffs, lush rainforests, volcanic rock-strewn black sand beaches, deep canyons, lava-spouting volcanoes and tall mountains. Most visitors don't see the incredible diversity Hawaii has to offer, but to those willing to explore, including dedicated photographers, it's literally a paradise. I will show you only a small part of that incredible natural beauty here in two images of Big Island's wild coast.
Supertelephoto lenses can help bring a whole new level to your photography; and it just takes a little practice to get the hang of some of the particulars of working with long-reach lenses. Here are some top tips for making the most of supertelephoto zoom lenses.
In "The High Concept Image," a recent feature in Outdoor Photographer, nature photographer Ian Plant intelligently challenges photographers to capture creative, thoughtful images that move beyond "snapshots," rising to the level of "art."
Ian's description of the high concept image is in contradistinction to the "low-concept image," which he points out is generally more "documentary" or "literal" in nature. Seeing nothing wrong with such grab shots, he does, however, push photographers to look for new ways to depict the world. He invokes legendary photographer Minor White, who once said "One should photograph objects not only for what the are but for what else they are."
A zoom lens is a type of camera lens that is offers the photographer a useful range of different focal lengths in a single lens. This is in comparison to a prime lens, which only offers a single focal length. A zoom lens allows for quick and easy re-framing of a scene while staying in the same physical position. Sigma offers a line of over 20 zoom lenses for DSLR photographers, ranging from wide angle zoom lenses, supertelephoto zoom lenses, and high-zoom ratio all-in-one lenses for both full-frame (DG) and APS-C (DC) digital cameras.
Over the last few months I have been testing the newest version of the Sigma's 120-300 f/2.8. I have nothing but good experiences with the older version of this lens so I have been looking forward to working with this lens over the winter and spring at home in Southern California. So far my experiences have changed my view of this lens, the newest version of the 120-300 f/2.8. The previous version was good. I found that this latest version has quick and accurate autofocus; the image quality is superb and the focal range excellent for nature photography.

Mr. Keith Jubah, an official of Liberia's Ministry of Health & Social Welfare (MoH&SW), said the Ministry's leadership gives US$25 as daily per diem to each official appointed to bury a person who died of Ebola. There's an additional US$350 as monthly per diem for each person, besides the general salary, he explained further.
Mr. Jubah made the revelation Friday, July 25, during a casual conversation among a group of acquaintances in front of a wooden shack marked "Intellectuals United for Progress & Development (IUPAD)" in Saye Town, Sinkor.
"They pay twenty-five dollars daily for burying of Ebola person," Mr. Jubah explained to the other discussants under the IUPAD's shed against the rain at 6m on Friday.
One of the persons receiving the information told the informant the US$25 per diem is little. "That money is too small considering the millions the ministry has received and the risk to the lives of the people taking the Ebola victim to the graveyard," the guy argued with Mr. Jubah.
The Health Ministry's officials further informed his colleagues that the MoH&SW leadership instructs each of the Ministry's department to release six persons (representatives) for the removal and burial of an Ebola victim's body.
"Fighting Ebola is expensive," argued Mr. Jubah, who said he's a professional Civil Engineer, a member of MoH's Infrastructural Unit that is responsible for erecting temporary care structure for Ebola patients, and a member of the Ebola victim's burial team. "One suit a doctor wears to treat Ebola patient costs US$150."
Shortwave communication equipment for doctors working on an Ebola patient sucks different money, the MoH&SW official informed his colleagues. "You know, the doctors' entire body is covered when they are treating the Ebola patient, but they have to communicate to each other as they go on working," he explained. He didn't, however, state price of the communication equipment.
He said Ebola burial suit taken to a graveyard is buried with the dead person. "It is believed that the whole suit is contaminated with the Ebola virus," he said of the situation after the Ebola victim had been placed into the ground.
The Assistant Minister of Preventive Services of MoH&SW, Mr. Tolbert Nyenswah, told the New Republic July 28 he knew nothing about such information. "That is administrative information. Please speak to Mr. Matthew Flomo about that," he told this writer.
The paper couldn't reach Mr. Matthew Flomo, Deputy Minister for Administrative Services, Monday through his contact number given by Mr. Nyenswah. His mobile phone was off when this writer called (15:10GMT), and he couldn't be reached up to time of going to the press.
Again, Tuesday, yesterday (July 29), Mr. Flomo couldn't be reached through same number supplied by Mr. Nyenswah. The line was silent.
The Government of Liberia and its development partners--US Government, World Bank, African Development Bank, etc.--have pumped millions of United States dollars in the fight against the fastest-killing Ebola virus on request from the Dr. Walter Gwinegale-led Ministry of Health & Social Welfare.
This amount covers better or higher daily per diem for Liberia's health officials who risk their lives by spending long time with Ebola victims (dead) from where the virus struck them to their burial place.

By CHRISTOPHER MARQUIS
Published: July 19, 2003
WASHINGTON, July 18— The Bush administration, which spurned the United Nations in its drive to depose Saddam Hussein in Iraq, is finding itself forced back into the arms of the international body because other nations are refusing to contribute peacekeeping troops or reconstruction money without United Nations approval.
With the costs of stabilizing Iraq hovering at $4 billion a month and with American troops being killed at a steady rate, administration officials acknowledge that they are rethinking their strategy and may seek a United Nations resolution for help that would placate other nations, like India, France and Germany.
Administration officials contend that they are being practical, but within their ranks are policy makers sharply critical of the United Nations and those who would consider it humiliating to seek its mantle after risking American lives in the invasion that ousted Mr. Hussein.
The administration's quandary deepened today, when Russia announced that it would consider sending peacekeeping troops but only with a United Nations mandate that set out a specific mission and timetable.
President Bush's meeting this week with Kofi Annan, the United Nations secretary general, was part of a flurry of consultations in recent days between administration and United Nations officials. Condoleezza Rice, the national security adviser, reached out to diplomats on the Security Council, and Secretary of State Colin L. Powell emerged from a meeting with the German foreign minister, Joschka Fischer, saying he was discussing ways to expand international support for the Iraq occupation, including seeking a new United Nations resolution.
Mr. Powell said Security Council Resolution 1483, which was approved in May and calls on all members to assist in Iraq's reconstruction, should be enough ''cover'' for countries to claim an endorsement from the United Nations. But he acknowledged that the nations that matter most are not buying that.
''There are some nations who have expressed the desire for more of a mandate from the United Nations, and I am in conversations with some ministers about this, as well as with the secretary general of the United Nations,'' Mr. Powell said.
The discussions reflect a growing sense that the reconstruction of Iraq will require a new international alliance. For all their rapid success in the military phase, the American-led forces are struggling to establish stability and normalcy in Iraq. A Pentagon advisory panel that just returned from Iraq reported a pressing need for international assistance.
Even supporters of the administration's policy say its efforts are in jeopardy, and minute military planning gave way to disarray once the major combat ended.
''It's increasingly clear there was really some underestimation of the number of people who would be required after the regime fell, and the length of time required to stay there,'' said Paul Saunders, director of the Nixon Center, a nonpartisan research organization whose honorary chairman is Henry A. Kissinger.
Mr. Saunders said there were two reasons for the United States to go back to the United Nations.
''It would be helpful to diffuse responsibility for this massive undertaking, and share any dissatisfaction with others and not be the sole target ourselves,'' he said. ''Externally, it's also helpful in rebuilding some of the relationships that were strained in the dispute over going in.''
Several nations have chafed at the idea of submitting their troops to American-British control. Others, which clashed with the United States and withheld support for a resolution authorizing war, want to tweak Washington for disregarding them.
India dealt the administration a sharp blow this week, refusing to send peacekeeping troops unless they operated under the auspices of the United Nations. The administration, which had lobbied New Delhi strenuously, had been hoping for a full division of 17,000 peacekeepers, which would have made India the second largest military presence in Iraq after the United States.
The administration had been particularly eager to enlist the Indians, because their presence is widely seen as a bellwether for numerous other developing countries.
In Moscow, Foreign Minister Igor S. Ivanov said that Russia would consider sending troops but that a new United Nations resolution was ''the most likely way of securing the participation of a large number of countries.''
One diplomat on the United Nations Security Council said virtually no additional nations -- with the exception of some in pro-American Eastern Europe -- were willing to place their troops under American or British control in Iraq. ''It would create a lot of problems for them,'' said the diplomat, who has been courted by White House officials.
Currently, 19 nations have a troop presence in Iraq, and Pentagon officials say 19 more have promised to send forces. About 13,000 non-American troops are now in the country, most of them British, compared with about 147,000 Americans.
Some military experts say the United States should move quickly to reduce the overwhelmingly American cast to the occupation. More foreign peacekeepers could relieve American troops who are already taxed by combat and extended stays, and now must contend with tedious chores, like protecting buildings. Peacekeepers from other countries also might lessen Iraqi resentment toward the Americans.
