This report provides an overview of the situation for genetically engineered products with regard to regulation, policy, and the marketing environment in Sweden.
THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 8/30/2011 GAIN Report Number: SW1103 Sweden Agricultural Biotechnology Annual Standing Biotech Report for Sweden Approved By: Mary Ellen Smith Prepared By: Asa Wideback Report Highlights: This report provides an overview of the situation for genetically engineered products with regard to regulation, policy, and the marketing environment in Sweden. For information on the general EU situation, please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Section I. Executive Summary: As a member of the European Union (EU), Sweden fully applies EU regulations regarding approvals, traceability and labeling of genetically modified (GM) products. In 1998, the breakdown of the EU's approval process for GE products blocked U.S. exports of several agricultural products to Sweden. Since then, the U.S. has lost its share of the Swedish market for soybean oilcake/meal. In 2010, Sweden?s imports of soybean meal were valued at about USD120 million, of which only USD 50 thousand originated in the US. Although a number of GM soy varieties have received approval to be imported into the EU since 1998, imports to Sweden have been very limited. This is due the fact that the Swedish meat- and dairy industry has voluntarily banned the use of GMO-feed the past 10-15 years. While the meat industry abandoned its ban in 2006 due to the higher cost for GMO-free feed (soy), the dairy industry still has its ban in place. However, pigs are so far the only animals in Sweden that have been fed with GM-feed. The quantities are still small, 95% of all imported soy to Sweden is GM-free soy from Brazil. Sweden continues to import conventional sweet corn from the United States for human consumption. However, U.S. feed corn has been locked out of the market because of the industry?s reluctance to use GMO feed. The availability of GMO-free corn is larger than that of soy. The value of the opportunity lost in supplying to Sweden a wide range of U.S. processed products containing GM ingredients is impossible to quantify. The food processing and retail sectors remain concerned over the possibility of negative consumer reaction and the ever- present threat of disruptions from anti-biotech demonstrators. Section II. Plant Biotechnology Trade and Production: Several seed companies in Sweden have developed their own GM varieties, including herbicide tolerant rapeseed and herbicide tolerant sugar beet, but the only commercially cultivated biotech crop in Sweden is the GM starch potato Amflora (for seed multiplication). The GM Amflora potato was approved for cultivation in March 2010. It was grown on 150 hectares in MY 10/11. Another unapproved GM starch potato was detected in some of the fields where Amflora was cultivated. The other potato had been cultivated in field trials for six years in Sweden. After thorough investigations, it was found that the contamination happened in a laboratory and a greenhouse before planting. As a result of the contamination, stricter control measures for cultivating Amflora were imposed. Therefore, the cultivation of the Amflora potato is significantly lower in 2011, about 20 hectares. Next year, control measures will be less strict and areas are expected to increase again. Before 2005, Sweden did not import biotech products or crops. However, since the meat industry lifted its ban on GM feed in 2006, small quantities of GM soy products have been imported into Sweden. Section III. Plant Biotechnology Policy: Regulatory Framework As an EU member, Sweden applies EU regulations on biotechnology. For information on EU regulations, please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Responsibility for the monitoring and enforcement of laws and regulations on biotech in Sweden is divided between the Ministry for Rural Affairs and the Ministry of the Environment. The Swedish Board of Agriculture is the authority responsible for regulating the contained use, deliberate release and placing on the market of biotech feed and seed. The National Food Administration is the authority responsible for regulating the placement of biotech foods on the market. The Swedish Gene Technology Advisory Board monitors developments in the field of gene technology, including ethical considerations, and provides advice on its use. The National Environmental Protection Agency plays an advisory role, providing input to other authorities on issues including deliberate release and market placement. The Agency also provides advice on the formulation of regulations for activities related to genetic engineering. The Government of Sweden is positive but cautious towards GM food, feed and crops. Within the EU, Sweden belongs to the ?pragmatic? group of countries. In GMO policy discussions, Sweden tries to find solutions that are science-based as well as practically feasible. Sweden has voted positively on almost all applications since the restart of the approval process in 2004. According to the Swedish Institute for Food and Agricultural Economics (SLI), growing biotech crops in Sweden would be economically beneficial for Swedish farmers. SLI has concluded that growing biotech crops instead of conventional crops would result in a 4-12% profitability increase. The largest potential benefit is noted for potatoes. Possible costs for co- existence measures such as safety distances between biotech and conventional fields are not considered in the analysis. Approved Biotech Crops Please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Field Testing of Biotech Crops Sweden allows field tests of biotech crops. Since 1989, the Swedish government has approved about 130 applications for field tests of biotech crops: potatoes, rapeseed, sugar beets, thale cress, apple rootstock, hybrid aspen, flax, and corn. Currently, there are 8 ongoing field trials in Sweden, including roundup resistant rapeseed and starch potatoes for industrial use. Table 1.

EU member states shall, based on the Commission?s guidelines, develop national strategies and best practices for co-existence. In May 2007, the Swedish government adopted its national framework for co-existence measures. In June 2008, the Swedish Board of Agriculture issued detailed regulations, including: - Farmers who plan to cultivate GM crops must notify owners/users of neighboring land 1 November the year before planting, at the latest. - Farmers must notify authorities within two weeks after planting. The registration fee is SEK 200 (EURO 22). - The distance requirement for corn is 50 meters, for potato 3 meters. Shorter distances are allowed if agreed between the parties. Sweden has chosen to only include crops that can possibly be cultivated in Sweden in coming years; potato and corn. Labeling Please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Biosafety Protocol Please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Biotech-related Trade Barriers Please refer to the USEU Agricultural Biotechnology Report. Section IV. Plant Biotechnology Marketing Issues: As mentioned earlier, prior to 2006, Sweden did not import biotech products or crops. However since January 2006, when the meat industry lifted its ban on biotech feed, small quantities of biotech soy products have been imported. While demand for this product has been limited, there has reportedly been no negative reaction from the Swedish trade. The food processing and retail sectors remain concerned about the possibility of negative consumer reaction and anti-biotech demonstrations. Section VI. Animal Biotechnology: Development and Use: There are no GE animals for food production in Sweden. However, GE animals, mainly mice, are used by universities and industry for biological, medical and biomedical research. At present no research is going on in Sweden in regard to the genetic modification of aquatic organisms. Regulation: The Swedish Board of Agriculture is the competent authority for GE animals in Sweden. The National Board of Fisheries is the authority responsible for the contained use, deliberate release and placing on the market of genetically modified aquatic organisms. Genetic engineering of all life organisms is regulated in chapter 13 of the Swedish Environmental Code, which is supplemented by a number of ordinances and regulations. The use of GE animals is regulated in the Board of Agriculture's Regulations on the Use of Genetically Modified Animals (SJVFS 1995:33) and the National Board of Fisheries' Regulations on Genetically Modified Aquatic Organisms (FIFS 2004:2). The contained use of genetically modified animals is regulated in SJVFS 2000:271. Anyone using genetically modified animals in contained conditions (e.g. in animal house or similar facility) must apply for consent to use the premises and then notify the Board of Agriculture of the intended contained use. Corresponding requirements apply to aquatic organisms which are the responsibility of the National Board of Fisheries. Industry and universities developing GE animals also need approval from the Swedish Work Environment Authority. This in order to make sure that the people handling the animals in the laboratories are not exposed to any risks. In addition, approval is needed from an animal ethic committee. Stakeholder/Public Opinion: The use of genetic engineering of animals for use in agriculture would most likely not be supported by the public in Sweden. The use of animals for medical research aimed at finding cures for diseases is found more acceptable. International Organizations: Sweden is an active member in OIE and Codex. The GE animals issue has so far not been one of Sweden?s focus areas in discussions in these organizations.

|Paging Lance: format of empty result set
|Fri, 03 Feb 2006 22:28:03 GMT
If I want to send an empty result set, do the result columns still have to match the expected set of result columns? I can't see why this would matter. Anybody else want to weigh in on this? It would be a lot simpler for me if I could have a single "fake" query that generates a "generic" empty result set with, say, a single integer column, rather than compose one with the right columns for each unsupported metadata call. Thanks, David

A Southern California man faces charges after authorities say he threw his 7-year-old son overboard from a harbor tour boat because the boy would not stop crying.
Updated at 7:10 a.m.: Tuesday, two days after the incident, Sloane Briles told KTLA-TV that he did nothing wrong and "we were having fun, it was a harbor cruise!" Briles told KTLA he did not hit his son that day and has never hit his son, adding, "I did nothing except jump in the water with my kid."
Orange County Sheriff's deputies who took Briles into custody Sunday say that he was combative and resisted arrest and that they believe he had been drinking, the TV station reports.
Original post, filed Tuesday by Michael Winter: A Southern California man is accused of throwing his 7-year-old son overboard from a harbor tour boat because the boy would not stop crying, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Sloane Briles, 35, of Irvine (mugshot) was charged on suspicion of child endangerment and resisting arrest. The Orange County Sheriff's Office said Briles appeared to have been drinking.
After arguing with his girlfriend aboard a tour boat in Newport Harbor on Sunday, he reportedly hit the boy several times before heaving him off the bow because he continued to cry, a sheriff's spokesman said. The boy was rescued quickly by other boaters.
He and his 6-year-old brother are in the custody of their mother, who is divorced from Briles.

Future of federal solar programs in doubt
WASHINGTON The solar power industry is facing a double threat from a Congress that may turn off the flow of federal subsidies and take a pass on mandating renewable-energy standards that would increase demand.
The Republican-led House, focused on cutting spending and philosophically opposed to subsidizing solar power and clean energy, has targeted federal grant and loan guarantee programs to reduce or eliminate.
One is a U.S. Treasury grant program, set to expire at the end of this year, that solar companies say has kept them alive through the recession. The other is an Energy Department loan guarantee program, part of which would end Oct. 1, that has provided nearly $35 billion in loan guarantees for solar, wind, geothermal and other clean energy projects that have generated more than 68,000 U.S. jobs, according to the department.
Meanwhile, hopes for a national clean energy standard that could boost demand for solar power also are dimming in a Congress that doesn't support government mandates about what kind of energy Americans should use.
"Is the solar industry going to die if we lose these programs? No, but we're going to stall," said Roger Efird, managing director of Suntech America. Its parent company, Suntech Power, which has offices in San Francisco, China and Europe and a manufacturing plant in Arizona, is the world's largest producer of solar panels. "We'll certainly lose a lot of jobs. There's no doubt about that," Efird said.
Solar employs 100,000
The solar power industry grew 67% last year — faster than any other U.S. industry — and employs about 100,000 people nationwide, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association.
Critics say it's time for the industry to stand on its own and compete in the free market without any help from struggling American taxpayers.
"If you take a gun and force taxpayers to hand over their earnings to a solar company, that solar company is going to do very well, but the taxpayers end up getting screwed with nothing to show for it at the end of the day," said Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif. He has led efforts by House conservatives to end loan guarantees and grants for the solar industry and other renewable energy industries. "We've spent billions on technology and research and subsidies, and it's still the most expensive way of generating electricity."
Solar power and offshore wind power are the costliest methods of generating electricity, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. However, solar's cost is dropping as the technology becomes more efficient and the industry expands, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association. The average price of an installed solar system in a home, business or power plant fell more than 20% nationwide from the beginning of 2010 to the end of the year, the association said.
Solar advocates say it's unfair to talk of solar standing on its own, as the federal government has been subsidizing oil, gas, coal and nuclear industries for decades. Those subsidies include tax incentives to drill for oil, federally financed dams to generate hydroelectric power, and research funding for nuclear power and clean-coal technologies.
"The government has always played a role in the energy mix through providing incentives to certain technologies or making it easier to use certain technologies," said Richard Caperton, an energy analyst with the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank. "Transmission lines to coal-fired power plants were built with taxpayer subsidies. If we stop spending money on some very cost-effective programs for clean energy, all it's going to do is put clean energy at an even bigger competitive disadvantage."
A better solution may be to get rid of all federal energy subsidies, said Nicolas Loris, an energy analyst with the conservative Heritage Foundation. "Given the financial situation of our government, energy subsidies is not an area where we need to be spending money," he said.
Solar advocates argue that the government's investment is paying off in new jobs. "We need to be fiscally disciplined as a country, but we shouldn't be foolhardy by eliminating programs that create jobs," said Rhone Resch, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association.
Finding support in the Senate
The solar industry has an ally in President Obama, who has called for a national clean energy standard that sets the goal of the nation generating 80% of its electricity from clean sources by 2035. Although it's unlikely Congress will approve that ambitious goal, the administration could take steps to help the solar industry by allowing federal agencies to enter into long-term agreements to buy solar power, Resch said.
Solar programs also remain popular in the Senate, where Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., fought off House efforts early this year to end the loan guarantee program that helps solar companies secure financing for their projects. Reid last month announced that the Energy Department will provide conditional guarantees for the Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project in Tonopah, Nev., creating nearly 5,000 jobs in his struggling state, which has the nation's highest jobless rate.
Solar lobbyists said they believe the loan guarantee program will survive, although it's not yet clear how much funding it will get this year.
McClintock and other conservatives wrote letters in early June asking the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development to end innovative technology loan guarantees and other renewable energy programs. The subcommittee approved $160 million for loan guarantees, far less than the $1 billion sought by the Obama administration but enough to keep the program alive.
The future is less certain for the U.S. Treasury program that gives cash grants to solar and other renewable-energy companies. Solar companies can get a grant equal to 30% of the cost of a solar system as an incentive to develop solar projects. It was intended to help companies that were not making enough profit in the sluggish economy to take advantage of a 30% tax credit.
Extending the program beyond its expiration date at the end of this year will be tough in the House, because the grant was part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the stimulus bill passed by the House in 2009 when it was led by Democrats. Republicans say the act spent billions while creating few jobs.
"I think we've got a 50-50 chance of getting the grant program renewed," Efird said.
Solar advocates say they believe they can change some minds in the House when they point out that there are solar companies in every state.
"I think solar is sometimes mistakenly thought of as a small, niche industry when it has actually created jobs all across the country," Caperton said. "It's not just California and Arizona. There are manufacturing companies in Mississippi, Alabama, Michigan, all over the place. When members of Congress hear that, they start to listen, and things start to change."
Here's a look at the federal programs that benefit the solar industry:
•The Investment Tax Credit, or ITC. Created by Congress in 2005, the ITC is a reduction in overall tax liability for individuals or businesses that invest in solar energy generation technology. It is equal to 30% of investment in energy production using solar electric, solar hot water, fuel cell or small wind methods. Expires Dec. 31, 2016.
•The 1603 Treasury Grant Program. When the recession hit, many solar companies were no longer able to take full advantage of the Investment Tax Credit because they did not make enough profit. So, in 2009, Congress included a provision in the sweeping American Recovery and Reinvestment Act — also known as the stimulus bill — that allows the owners of commercial solar property to receive a federal grant equal to 30% of their investment. If they opt for the grant, they cannot receive the tax credit. Expires Dec. 31, 2011.
•The Department of Energy's Loan Guarantee Program. This program has two parts that affect solar. The first is known as the Section 1703 program. It was created by Congress in 2005 to support innovative clean energy technologies that are typically unable to attract conventional private financing because they are new and considered risky by commercial banks. It is not set to expire, but it depends on Congress for funding each year. The second loan guarantee program is known as the Section 1705 program. It was included in the 2009 stimulus bill to provide more loan opportunities to renewable energy companies during the economic downturn. Expires Sept. 30, 2011. To receive funding, solar projects must begin construction no later than that date.

Azeropedagon encompasses Russia's Caucasus region. Most of the people are of Shi'ite Islam, Orthodox Christianity, or Zoroastrian faith, with the Shi'ites making up the majority. Azeropedagon is currently an autonomous region of the Holy Russian Empire, as of 1958.
Reclamation of Azeri LandsFollowing the Eruption many government collapses, and many insurgents arose. One of these insurgents was Hasan , a Zoroastrian from a small tight knit community (in OTL Azerbaijan, but at the time it was Soviet Russia). During the Eruption the small community was devastated, with much of the populace dying off, Ilkin manages to survive and moved to Baku in 1938. There he began preaching of rebellion against the USSR and its weakened government, and also Zoroastrianism. The charismatic youngster grew in both followers and converts, and managed to stage a large result known as the Caucasus Revolt, with only freeing much of Azerbaijan by 1942. In February 1943 after recovering from the previous war and supporting nationalists in Iranian Azerbaijan Hasan decided to attack and retake the Azeri lands. The Azeri Reconquest took fife years and ended in the April of 1948 Hasan decided to name his new nation Azeropedagon, the ancient name of Azerbaijan which translates to "Guardians of the Fire."
Post Reclamation
After the lands were reclaimed Ilkin focused more on internal affairs and keeping stability in the state. He began to institute a tax program of lesser taxes, with the tax range varying from 18%-30% and began to subsidize farms, orchards, ranches, slaughterhouses, and railroad companies. His plan was to both bring a steady food supply and improve/repair infrastructure. The plan, later known as the Reclamation Plan, is known for its success in improving the infrastructure, but only mild success in improving food supply.
During the this time the government also found the state-run Ministry of Community, whom took care of religious and cultural issues (e.g. religious violence) while officially siding with no one religion or culture in particular, as the state was decreed secular. The Ministry of Faith at this time began building temples in cities to attempts to bring about a sense of community and friendship among the people. During this period the Ministry supposedly was bias toward Zoroastrianism, and began to build a great amount of Zoroastrian temples, but a minimal amount of Shi'ite temples. As the people were for decades being forcefully deconverted by the USSR or converted to Orthodox Christianity by the Russian Tsardom the Shi'ite community was in shambles, and the loss of faith due to hard times after the Eruption. The large increase in Zoroastrian church and community and the weakness of the Shi'ites led to mass-conversions of Zoroastrianism. This policy continues for decades up until the 1980s.
In June 1950 another war was launched to take back the Caucasus from the remaining USSR, but as the nation collapsed so fully there was very little resistance and the war it was over by November 1950. Another war was then launched against Turkey to take greater lands which was begun in March 1951 and ended in January 1952, as the Turkish government was weakened as well.
Orthodox Genocide.
In the years following 1953 religious violence has been a large issue in Azeropedagon, as Ilik Hanzedah Reziah began what would be known as the Orthodox Genocide. During the mid-1950's the government took on a anti-Armenian and anti-Georgian propaganda campaign, with the Zoroastrians being anti-Armenian and anti-Georgian due to ancient ethnic and cultural clashes, and the Shi'ites being anti-Orthodox after centuries of Orthodox oppression and religious issues.
This caused most of the early violence done by citizens against the western Orthodox peoples. During the Winter of 1955 there was a food shortage, and government propaganda spouting that it was due to the Orthodox Church hoarding their food sparked outrage, and almost two weeks of rioting in Western Azeropedagon killed thousands of Orthodox Christians, and the fallout continues to today, with murder over religion not being uncommon.
Later during the Spring of 1956 the government began forcefully sterilizing and killing not only the Orthodox but even Shi'ite and Zoroastrian Armenians and Georgians. Many were shipped to mining labor-camps, were accused of false crimes and imprisoned, had their houses burned down, or just plain shot when out at night. It wasn't until the Autumn of 1956 that Armenians and Georgians were abducted and sent to hard labor in the mines and farms, or to concentration camps. Many Orthodox fled north to the Orthodox peoples of Russia, or to Iran, Iraq, and Turkey where they were tolerated more and it was warmer. The total amount of Georgians and Armenians killed or exiled exceed two million.
HRE Integration
Integration into the Holy Russian Empire began in 1958 in which the Tsar demanded that Azeropedagon become one with the HRE peacefully. Azeropedagon agreed reluctantly, seeing the might of the HRE. In the Treaty of Baku Azeropedagon officially became a autonomous region in the Holy Russian Empire under the circumstances that Azeropedagon become autonomous, and the Shah be downgraded to a Duke under the HRE.
Modern DaySince the Russian integration of Azeropedagon the region has seen a spike in its economy. Azeropedagon is naturally a very mineral-rich and oil-rich nation, but in the past was under-developed to get sizable portions of the materials, or had fewer trading partners, as both Turkey and Iran disliked the small nation. After Russia took over the region one of the first things that happened was mines and oil fields opened up around the Duchy. The creation of jobs and precious materials turned the 3rd World State into a economic powerhouse. The average GDP Per Capita is at $53,200, with it being $12,560 at the time of the Duchy's integration.
Much of the population is Shi'ite, making up about 54% of the population making it the most common religion, the second most common are the Zoroastrians making up about 17%, and the Orthodox Christians making up 26%, 3% other.
The Azeri language is one of the many mixing-pot languages that can be found world wide. The language originally was mostly Persian, then it was strongly influenced by the Armenians, Greeks and Byzantines. Later the Mongols and Tartars came, bring with them their own language. Then even after the Mongols came the Russians the first time. The language today also uses Cyrillics rather than Arabic characters, as during the integration Azeropedagon was forced to adopt Cyrillics.
Human Rights Issues
Azeropedagon is a hot bed for racism. As Azerbaijanis are the conquerors and uniters of the Caucasus they are often the higher class, with Georgians below them, then Armenians beneath them. Along with being ethnically prejudice, it is also religiously prejudice. Zoroastrians are almost always upper class, and most nobles are Zoroastrian. It is not uncommon for an Zoroastrian Azeri to kill an Orthodox Armenian with a bias investigation in which the Azeri goes free.
Shi'ite Azeris are the most common and usually middle-class. Though they are not Zoroastrian, they are considered respectable and are considered the second highest class. Shi'ite Azeris are usually not discriminated against by Zoroastrians (unless there is another Zoroastrian in the mix) and often discriminate against the Orthodox, Georgians and Armenians.
Azeropedagon in the Caucasus region and is almost completely mountainous save for plains to the north.

Texas Insurer Seeks More Money for Hurricane Ike, Says it Won't Cover Storm Surge DamageSep 18, 2008 | Parker Waichman LLP
The Texas Windstorm Insurance Association has voted to collect more money from insurance companies to bolster its reserves. The vote comes on the heels of Hurricane Ike, which could cost the association $4 billion in claims. There are also indications that a dispute between consumer groups in the state and the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association could be brewing, because of the association's claim that its policies do not cover storm surge damage.
The Texas Windstorm Insurance Association is the insurer of last resort for 14 coastal counties in the state. The association covers 142,566 policies in the six Texas counties hardest hit by Ike. The amount of claims paid through the association depends on how much of the damage is determined to be wind-related. Texas Windstorm Insurance Association policies do not cover flooding and most other water damage.
According to The Houston Chronicle, association's $100 million base, along with part of a $500 million catastrophic reserve trust fund, were already used up paying for damage caused by Hurricane Dolly and Tropical Storm Edouard earlier in the summer. The association raises money through assessments on all property and casualty insurers authorized to write coverage in Texas. New assessments were needed because the wind pool had only $370 million in its fund.
On Wednesday, the association's board voted to collect an additional $430 million from Texas insurers to bolster claim reserves. Ultimately, Texas taxpayers will foot some of that bill because insurers can recoup about $230 million through state tax credits.
The association' general manager had originally proposed assessing insurers $830 million. But insurance companies, including State Farm, Farmers, Travelers and USAA, opposed that. Insurance company representatives hold five of nine seats on the board. Given the scope of the damage along the Texas Gulf Coast, combined with the fact that hurricane season is far from over, it is expected that the Texas Windstorm Association will need additional assessments.
Meanwhile, a consumer group is disputing the association's assertion that its polices do not cover damage from storm surge. "A storm surge is a phenomenon peculiar to windstorms, which should be covered by windstorm insurance," Alex Winslow, executive director of Texas Watch, said in a statement.
The Texas Windstorm Association's general manager told the American Statesman that its policies are "very specific" that damages from floods and overflowing of rivers and other bodies of water are not covered. Courts in other states have backed such exclusions, he said.
The storm surge conflict was a major source complaints among policyholders affected by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. A 2008 Government Accountability (GAO) report urged better assessment of "the accuracy of flood payments on hurricane-damaged properties." Insurance companies' handling of damage claims from hurricanes, where both wind and water destroy property, needs closer government scrutiny, the report said.

Kendall Jenner's cryptic tweet about Lamar Odom?
Kendall Jenner has posted a cryptic tweet believed to refer to Lamar Odom.
The 19-year-old model urged a mysterious person "please don't go" in the first social media posting from her family since the sportsman - who was previously married to Kendall's half-sister Khloe Kardashian - was found unconscious in a brothel yesterday (13.10.15).
She simply posted the three words and hasn't responded to fans who queried the brief update on the microblogging site.
Meanwhile, it has been claimed Lamar - who is currently in a critical condition in a coma at Pahrump hospital in Nevada - "lost it" after receiving a phone call on Sunday (11.10.15) about the latest episode of 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians'.
An insider at the Love Ranch, where the former NBA star had been staying since Saturday (10.10.15), said he had seemed "chill" until he got a call about the show, prompting him to become irate and complain about the way he had been portrayed.
Lamar - who was seen in the show calling his ex-wife twice - is said to have "remained upset" until he was discovered unconscious.
Ranch owner Dennis Hof has claimed Lamar consumed "eight or 10" herbal Viagra pills during his stay at the facility, while a source said he ordered a bottle of cognac and around a third of its contents were left at the time of his hospitalisation.
Up until getting the call, people at the Ranch say Lamar was "chill." There was no evidence he had been high on drugs or alcohol. We're told when he arrived Saturday, he ordered a single bottle of cognac and when he was found unconscious a third of the bottle was left.

The full U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee today approved a provision authored by U.S. Senator Mary L. Landrieu, D-La., "Military Mary," to require the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide regular updates on the progress of the Lafayette and Lake Charles veterans clinics. The provision is part of the annual appropriations bill and report that fund military construction and veterans affairs operations for FY13. The bill now moves to the full Senate for its consideration.
"We are one step closer to making sure the promises made to veterans living in Lafayette and Lake Charles are kept," Sen. Landrieu said. "Our veterans deserve to receive high-quality health care, and this bill will make sure they are updated on the clinics' progress in a timely and transparent manner."
The Veterans Administration announced to the Louisiana congressional delegation on March 9 that it made errors during the solicitation for offers to build the clinics, resulting in delays of a year or more. During a March 22 meeting hosted by Sen. Landrieu, high-ranking VA officials committed to providing Sen. Landrieu and members of the delegation monthly status updates on the progress of the two clinics. Sen. Landrieu's provision will now require this action.
At a Senate Appropriations Subcommittee hearing in March, Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki pledged to Sen. Landrieu and to Louisiana's veterans that he will do everything possible to expedite the construction of the two clinics.

Excellent Orthopedic Doctor
Dr. Snyder has treated my husband, sons and me for several athletic-related injuries, some of which have required surgery. Dr. Snyder has always provided a great bed-side manner and spent ample time discussing treatment. He has been considerate to not order tests if he felt they were not needed, as well as physical therapy: referring if he felt it was needed, but not always. Dr. Snyder is currently with Midwest Trauma Physicians through Research Medical Center, KC, Mo at the Brookside campus. HCA does not list him on the web-site directory so call the main number for Research Medical Center!

Awesome surgeon
Dr. Snyder is the BEST shoulder surgeon in the area. He did a reverse total shoulder procedure on me and I have been pain free sine the operation. I would highly recomend anyone who needs a shoulder replacement to Dr. Snyder.

August 1st, 2011
I was referred to Dr. Snyder for a shoulder injury from my PCP. At the appointment he was hurried, very non chalant about what to about informing me about the surgery he was supposed to do. We agreed to scheduled the surgery, a week went by, then two, then a month and now it has been two months and I have not received a return call from his nurse nor has my surgery been scheduled. He referred me to another physician (I only found that out through my attorney) that does not do shoulder work and his staff had no idea who I was or why I referred to a specialist that only does spines. At the time of my initial appointment with Dr. Snyder I thought maybe he was running late for another appointment but as the minutes ticked by all he did was tell me about the surgery and that he could do it. He never said at the time he would like to send me to another doctor. Dr. Snyder was very unprofessional with the way he handled my case and his nurse is just as unprofessional since she never returned a single call and claims to have never received one. You can't receive one if you never get to talk to her and all you get is her voice mail.

Awesome Surgeon
Dr. Synder has done 3 surgeries for me and all have been great. My last surgery was a meniscus transplant and so far it is going great. I definitely recommend going to him. He has opened his own practice called KC Sports Medicine and it is located off of Nall, so he is no longer at Dixon Dively.
