Do you own any of the NYX Liquid Suede? What colours and what do you think about them?

Brazil/Argentina: In 2016, Brazil and Argentina commemorate 25th anniversary of signing of the Guadalajara Agreement that aimed to ensure the exclusively peaceful use of nuclear energy. The agreement was signed at Guadalajara, Mexico on 18 July 1991. Under the Guadalajara Agreement, Argentina and Brazil undertook, among other things, to use nuclear material and facilities under their jurisdiction or control exclusively for peaceful purposes. The following is the statement issued jointly by José Serra, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Brazil and Susana Malcorra, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Worship of Argentina.
Note: The Spanish and Portugese versions can be downloaded here.
In 2016 we celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the signing by Brazil and Argentina of the Guadalajara Agreement for the exclusively peaceful use of nuclear energy. Among the new elements introduced by the Agreement was the Brazilian-Argentine Agency for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials (ABACC), created to monitor the two countries' commitment to unequivocally pursuing the exclusively peaceful use of nuclear energy and to administrating the newly created Common System for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials.
A few months later, in 1991, the two countries signed the Quadripartite Agreement with ABACC and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). It was the first time Brazil and Argentina had negotiated as a joint delegation with an international body. Within a short space of time, important milestones in the strategic bilateral relationship between Brazil and Argentina were reached, helping to establish the atmosphere of peace, mutual trust and cooperation that prevails between the two countries.
Given the importance we attach to our bilateral relationship, which is one of the priorities of our respective diplomatic endeavors, it is natural that we work together, in integrated fashion, in many different areas. The commitment of both our societies to this objective is due in no small part to the decision to increase our cooperation in the nuclear field.
In the 1970's, different political and historical factors hindered the pursuit of closer ties between our countries. Disagreements about the construction of the Itaipu and Corpus power stations, and suspicions generated by our respective national nuclear programs, threatened to create a situation of spiraling insecurity in our region.
Fortunately, the re-democratization process in both our countries, from the 1980's onwards, paved the way for a radical transformation in the way Brazil and Argentina viewed each other, making possible a broad relationship characterized by cooperation and integration. Presidents José Sarney and Raul Alfonsín played a key role in this change. The process was continued by their successors, whose efforts, accompanied by a strong commitment on the part of scientists and diplomats from both countries, culminated in the creation of ABACC.
Today, the bilateral cooperation process allows us to engage without fear in the development of nuclear energy for exclusively peaceful purposes, with a view to achieving technological, economic, and social advances. Brazil and Argentina currently cooperate not only in the reciprocal verification of their nuclear activities but also on a series of joint projects that seek to concretize the strategic nature of our relationship. This is the case with the building of the Brazilian Multipurpose Research Reactor and Argentina's RA-10 Research Reactor, both emblematic projects conducted jointly by the two countries, capable of supplying the entire regional market with the radioisotope Molybdenum-99, which is extremely important in the medical industry.
We must remember that nuclear energy has an essential role to play in sustainable development and in reducing the dependence of our economies on fossil fuels.
Through the creation of ABACC and the Common System for Control of Nuclear Materials, our negotiators conceived an arrangement that had previously been unthinkable in such a sensitive area. Through that arrangement, the inspections of the Argentine nuclear installations are carried out by Brazilian inspectors, and the inspections of Brazilian nuclear facilities are conducted by Argentine inspectors. Since its creation, ABACC, in close cooperation with the IAEA, has conducted more than 2,500 inspections in both countries, the results of which are published in annual reports on its website. ABACC also participates as an observer in meetings of the IAEA Board of Governors.
This dynamic requires a level of trust and a degree of reciprocity that attest not only to the uniqueness of the Brazil-Argentina relations but also to its contribution to the region and the world, the agreement being paradigmatic with regard to security and non-proliferation. This experience today serves as a model of how impasses might be overcome in other regions.
Our experience with ABAAC demonstrates that it is possible to create new levels of confidence through diplomacy and the creation of original institutions. In politics, it is necessary to be daring in pursuit of a greater good: that of peace. Based on this strategy and on our peaceful vocation, Brazil and Argentina will continue to strengthen their ties of friendship and cooperation both in the nuclear field and in all those other areas that contribute to the sustainable development of our countries and the welfare of our peoples.

Now, combining a boatload of new drive-throughs with lunch and dinner sales starts to sound an awful lot like fast food. And while Starbucks may never turn into a burger joint like McDonald's (MCD), it's clearly got big ambitions to grab more customers at all hours of the day. It's even expanding beer, wine and snacks for the late-evening crowd. More than 1,000 U.S. stores will eventually have what Starbucks calls its "evenings" offering.
Starbucks' growth strategy? Open more Starbucks
You might think there couldn't possibly be any room left in America for another Starbucks (SBUX), but the company would beg to differ.
In fact, CEO Howard Schultz said last week the company is "significantly under-stored" in North America, which is why he wants to add many more locations. The company is planning 1,500 more stores globally this year, including 600 in North America. Many of those locations will be drive-throughs.
"We are a long ways from saturation, by the way, that's clear to us," chief financial officer Troy Alstead told The Motley Fool recently. "We have years and years and years of growth left in the U.S."
Americans don't need that much coffee, do they? As it turns out, this really isn't about coffee at all. Starbucks' expansion plan includes offering lunch and dinner to customers.
About 40 percent of Starbucks' U.S. stores are drive-throughs, and Alstead told The Motley Fool that will increase to 60 percent in the future. Some of those will be in some unusual locations, such as right off of busy highways. And some Starbucks stores are skipping the dine-in experience completely and will only have walk-up and drive-through windows.
Starbucks has also been testing different lunch options and will roll out an enhanced lunch program next year, Alstead said last week on the company's quarterly earnings call. Starbucks "will increasingly be seen as a destination for a quick, delicious and high-quality lunch," he said.
The motivation here is profit growth. Drive-throughs are extremely profitable for Starbucks, and food helped drive average customer spending up 3 percent in the company's last quarter.
Starbucks got burned several years ago with its aggressive expansion plans. The company was too ambitious and scrambled to open as many stores as it could. In in 2008, with the financial crisis weighing on consumer spending, it moved to close 600 stores in the U.S. and lay off as many as 12,000 employees. In an email to employees, Schultz said at the time that the move was "the most angst-ridden decision we have made in my more than 25 years with Starbucks."
In last week's conference call, however, Schultz was quick to point out that the company is not returning to the expand-at-all-costs mindset of old. "This is not 2007 when we we're going to grow the company in an undisciplined way," he said. "But we do believe, in short, that we have a significant level of runway domestically and in Canada."

We helped out at Hungerford Town Hall in the morning for the AONB 40th anniversary where HAHA had a stand and then we went to the plot for a few hours. AONB gave Marsh Lane the grant for digging the borehole - actually had to use it today to water the celeriac, that's the first time for a while!
There were lots of slugs and slug eggs in amongst the shallots. We've left the area open so hopefully the frog and weather will deal with clearing up - I managed to get this photo of a mother feeding her chick, unfortunately they definitely prefer worms to slugs though :-(
|Slugs and eggs
I sowed a double row of broad beans on plot 8 where we'd dug some manure into the ground a couple of weeks ago. Jamie fed the tomato plants and mowed the grass which is growing like mad and looks good but isn't really the best type of path because of the work it generates - also there's only so much grass that you want in your compost bin.

If you're afraid of using no contact, you need to read this.
You are imprisoning yourself, in a no-win situation, and I'll prove it.
Maybe, after reading this, you'll reconsider using, the no contact rule.
It will help you out of the tight spot, you're sitting in, right now.
Do Not Let Fear Stop You From Getting Your Ex Back
Let's start with, how you got to where you are, right now.
Your ex boyfriend/girlfriend, wife, or husband left you, correct?
Now, they say they want to be friends, but, you want more, that is why you agreed to be "friends."
Here, is where, you started to build your prison, brick by brick.
The no contact rule, can help you, take it down, brick by brick.
The only way to get your ex back, is, to change the situation, but, you're afraid, right?
It's like, someone left the cell door open, but, you're afraid to leave, because, you have in a sense, become comfortable, and, change scares you.
Yet, you long for a change…don't you?
Yep, you're in prison alright, and, you hold the key, to the cell door, but, you're afraid, to use it.
Get Over The Fear Of NC – Get Your Ex Back
Now that we have identified the prison, and, how it was built, let's talk, escape.
The same way you built the prison, brick by brick, staying friends with your ex, you can use the no contact rule, to take it down.
Every day, you stay in no contact, you take another brick down, and you are one brick, closer to freedom.
Once you are free, you will have a chance, to have the kind of relationship, you long for, with your ex.
Are you seriously going to let fear, stop you?
And, just what is it, that you are afraid of, anyway?
Are you afraid, they're going to leave you, again?
They already left, that is why they are your ex.
So, now that we know, they can not leave, what other fear, do you have, of using the no contact rule?
The biggest one I know of, is…they will move on, and forget you, right?
How do you know, that being friends with them, is going to stop them, from moving on?
Do Not Be Afraid To Get Your Ex Back
Do you really believe, imprisoning yourself, in this "just friends" zone, is going to work, to keep them, from moving on?
They are "free", you are not.
They can do whatever they want, you can not.
They can move on, you can not.
Still afraid of using the no contact rule, to free yourself?
Every day, you follow the no contact rule, you are one, day closer, to freedom.
Free to get your ex back, again.
You can not stop, your ex, from moving on, by staying friends with them.
It will not work.
But you will imprison yourself, and, that is not good.
If you truly want to be free, and, get back together with your ex, you will need to use, the no contact rule, correctly.
Everyone, that I know, who failed at the no contact rule, failed because they didn't use it, correctly.
You need to follow a good plan, to succeed, and, learn to control, your emotions.
Winning Your Ex Back – Brick By Brick
Now that you know, you have a prison, to break out of, you will need a plan, to help you do that.
Listen, if your ex, left you, because, they said your old relationship wasn't going anywhere.
Where they think, this "just friends" relationship, is going?
If you think, being where you're at now, is better than escaping, and, getting what you deserve.
Can you please, tell me why?
If you have any comments, or questions for me, please write them, in the comment box below, and, I will answer them, ASAP!
What can I do, to help you get over, your fear of using the no contact rule?
Do not let fear, keep you from, winning your ex back.

In recent weeks Wyatt Cornali received hybrid surgery to repair a hole in one of the wall of his heart. In Wyatt's case it is the wall between the two lower chambers of the heart that had to be repaired. In a previous surgery, a band was also placed around Wyatt's pulmonary artery to reduce bloodflow to his lungs. This banding had become too tight. The banding was removed and the artery repaired.
The definition for hybrid surgery according to Wikipedia is as follows:
A hybrid cardiac surgical procedure in a narrow sense is defined as a procedure that combines a conventional surgical part (including a skin incision) with an interventional part, using some sort of catheter-based procedure guided by fluoroscopy (or other, e.g. CT or MRI) imaging in a hybrid OR without interruption. A wider definition includes a clinically connected succession of a catheter intervention and a surgical procedure with a time gap.[1][2]
In short both open heart surgery and a catheter-based technique was used on Wyatt, therefore it was a hybrid surgical procedure. The catheter based method was used to deliver a plug to the site of the hole in his heart wall. The plug was then secured and his heart tissue will grow over the plug in due time.
The plug used to close Wyatt's VSD can be seen second from the right on both pictures.
Here is a closer look:
The neck (narrower part) of the plug is deployed into the hole and it closes it. The wings then secure the plug in place, and the heart tissue grows over it, making it part of the heart.
Wyatt is doing well and he has been released in the meantime.
Wyatt is one of the fortunate cases where he was diagnosed while his mommy was still pregnant with him. This very early warning gave the Cornali family time to prepare as they had to travel from a different province for Wyatt to be born at a hospital who had the resources and knowledge to care for him. If Wyatt had not been diagnosed during his gestational period, his outcome could have been far less rosy.
Wyatt's story reminds us that ultrasounds are not just for checking gender and growth in terms of weight and size. Ultrasound technology is able to look inside the heart of an unborn child and identify possible abnormalities. There are 6 simple questions that every parent should ask when a doctor is performing an ultrasound:
1. Do you see four chambers in our baby's heart?
2. Are there two upper chambers (left and right atria) with valves controlling blood flow into the heart?
3. Are there two lower chambers (left and right ventricles) with valves controlling blood flow out to the body (aortic) and lungs (pulmonary)?
4. Do the two valves and vessels (aorta and pulmonary arteries) exit the heart in a crossing fashion?
5. Are the walls between the lower chambers of the heart intact?
6. Is our baby's heart normal?
If at any point your OBGYN can not answer these questions, then it is best to ask for a referral to a fetal specialist who can give you a second opinion. For more information please email firstname.lastname@example.com or contact our support line on 074 120 0279.

The 2013 Gang of Eight comprehensive immigration reform bill is the signature achievement of Marco Rubio's four years and ten months in the U.S. Senate. Yet in the first four Republican presidential debates, in which Rubio has played an increasingly prominent role, he has not been asked even once about the specifics of the legislation.
Despite that omission, it seems likely that if Rubio continues to rise in the GOP race, someone, somewhere will pay attention to his most important accomplishment. The 1,197-page Gang of Eight bill is so far-reaching, and at the same time so detailed, that it provides a sharp picture of where Rubio would like to take the U.S. immigration system. Rubio has renounced parts of his own work, but it's not clear which parts, and it's not clear if he has renounced them for good or only until he determines they are more politically practicable.
So until Rubio faces the inevitable questioning about his work, here are some of features of the Gang of Eight legislation that might attract discussion as the Republican race goes forward.
1) More immigration. Comprehensive immigration reform means more immigrants coming to the United States, and with the Gang of Eight Rubio would have dramatically increased that number. "The legislation would loosen or eliminate annual limits on various categories of permanent and temporary immigration," the Congressional Budget Office wrote in its 2013 assessment of the legislation. "If [the bill] was enacted, CBO estimates, the U.S. population would be larger by about 10 million people in 2023 and by about 16 million people in 2033 than projected under current law."Read more on WashingtonExaminer.com

The hype for the hybrids cars is getting worse. The world is changing an incredibly fast pace and those changes are demanding for solutions. Hyundai is already a successful car maker and with the new 2016 Sonata Hybrid is going to make another hit.
This car is promising: the fuel economy, the performance, the comfort, and the quality, all has been improved to deliver a really convenient option for those that the fuel economy and a comfortable ride is their need.
The South Korean maker blended a really good car. The car by itself competes in one of the most aggressive segments of the automotive market, the family sedan. Competitors as the Honda Accord, the Mazda 6, and the Toyota Camry hardened the competition and elevated the level until the point that you need to deliver a flawless and affordable product to be able to compete with them.
In that way, the 2016 Sonata has a high expectancy, being already in the top 10 of best selling sedans. This year, this car maker is trying to shorten that distance with this improved and refreshed model. With the incorporation of the Hybrid and Hybrid Plug-In technology, Hyundai has good opportunities to rule the market. But, here in UpandComingCars, we don't foresee things. Customers are those who decide.
Other posts: http://upandcomingcars.com/2018-audi-rs8/
Let's review this sedan.
Powertrain and Performance
The 2016 Sonata in both Hybrid and Plug-in features a brand new 2.0 L four-cylinder, offering Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) which delivers a smooth acceleration. It can produce up to 154 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 14 0lb-ft of torque at 6000 rpm. This powerplant is also going to enhance the fuel economy. With the incorporation of the electric motor in the Hybrid setup, the Sonata enjoys an addition of 51 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque, or either a 67 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque added by the motor of the Plug-In Hybrid version. The Sonata Hybrid totalize 193 horsepower while the Plug-In Hybrid 202 horsepower. Both are paired with a Shiftronic six-speed automatic transmission.
In terms of pure electric efficiency, the Plug-In model can travel up to 22 miles the electricity-only mode. The recharging battery pack takes five hours to be full with a 120-V outlet, and two hours and a half with a 240-V Level 2 charging station.
The fuel economy is pretty good, rated in 40 mpg in city and 44 mpg on the highway for the standard Hybrid. Meanwhile, the Hybrid Plug-In rated in 40 mpg combined.
Design and Interior
Hyundai did a clever move incorporating the style of Genesis into the Sonata couple years ago. The results? An aesthetically competitive car, with a unique style that puts it apart from the rivals. The exterior is smooth and solid without boring elements. It's a family sedan with a sporty style.
The interior impressive and is dotted with upscale materials and interesting features. The steering wheel has a good style and the center console is huge, plagued with buttons, knobs, and switches, delivering a sophisticated look and design. The seats, both rear and front are comfortable and enjoy an excellent leg room. The cockpit is full of cutting-edge features as well. The incorporation of a panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 5-inch touchscreen, hands-free smart trunk and a rearview camera in the standard model are well appreciated.
Further, if you want a more technology-packed car, are also available as options the nine-speaker Infinity audio system, navigation with a bigger touchscreen, forward collision warning, auto vehicle hold, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and a lot more features.
The Bottom Line
The 2016 Sonata Hybrid is available is two hybrid options. The car has an accepted performance, outstanding exterior and interior, and a good fuel efficience.
Starting price at US$26.000.

Despite huge advances in treatment and care and successful implementation of evidence-based preventive interventions in many EU member states, HIV and other co-infections (especially tuberculosis and hepatitis) are still not controlled among certain population groups and regions. The HA-REACT Joint action is implementing concerted, multi-country, and multi-actor actions, strengthening evidence-based practices in the focus countries, where the situation and needs are particularly challenging, and is focusing on pragmatic actions targeting the most vulnerable populations, i. e. people who inject drugs (PWID). Project activities are organized into five core work packages: Testing and linkage to care, Scaling up harm reduction, Harm reduction and continuity of care in prisons, Integrated care, Sustainability and long‑term funding, with three more horizontal packages for Coordination, Dissemination and Evaluation. The Joint Action HA-REACT involves 23 Associated partners from 18 countries. The project started in October, 2015 and its implementation will last 36 months.
Project timeline: 2013–2015
Title: Qualified Specialists and Informed Society: Foundation of a Safe, Healthy and Tolerant Society
Project focus: Better service quality and prevention, reduction of stigma
In 2013–2015 Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders implemented the project 'Qualified Specialists and Informed Society: Foundation of a Safe, Healthy and Tolerant Society', which aimed to improve the quality and accessibility of services for people who use psychoactive substances, as well as to reduce stigma and enhance the prevention of addictive disorders. The main activities implemented within the project focused on the development of professional expertise of specialists whose work involved direct or indirect interaction with people who use psychoactive substances, and on better informing the society about the addictive disorders.
Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders worked to organise multiple round tables in numerous municipalities of Lithuania in order to strengthen the cooperation and discuss the possibilities of service quality improvement and service expansion. A great variety of activities took place to raise awareness, including HIV testing campaigns, events in schools to promote prevention, consultations for family members of those who struggle with substance use, activities and counselling sessions for children from social risk families, mutual aid groups and trainings on how to conduct them.
The project made a substantial contribution to the reduction of social exclusion and discrimination, promotion of a concerted action and improvement of healthcare services.
Project Timeline: 2006–2011
Title: HIV/AIDS prevention and care among injecting drug users and in prison settings in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania
Focus: HIV/AIDS prevention
This Regional project aimed at building a national and regional consensus on effective implementation strategies to address HIV/AIDS among injecting drug users and in prisons, and to assist Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania to halt and reverse the epidemics within the aforementioned target groups.
The project contributed to the increase of coverage of comprehensive HIV/AIDS prevention and care services among injecting drug users and in prison settings, harm reduction services became more accessible to the target group, strategic information on response to HIV/AIDS epidemics was developed and shared.
During the years of the project Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders held numerous trainings on harm reduction and pharmacological treatment for medical professionals, as well as seminars for staff of penitentiary facilities. Trainings were organised in the three Baltic countries, specialists from those countries shared their experience and problem solving techniques.
Information dissemination was another key part of the project. Vilnius Centre for addictive disorders published multiple educational materials for students and the general society, developed a clinical methodology on methadone maintenance therapy in opioid dependence treatment, adapted several methodologies for Lithuania, contributed to the production of many other project publications, as well as to organisation of conferences, seminars and study visits.
Vilnius Centre for addictive disorders worked hand in hand not only with project partners but also with the Psychiatry Clinics of Vilnius University Medical Faculty, Lithuanian Psychiatrist Association and Vilnius University Medical Faculty, the Centre was visited by WHO expert groups.
The project of a large scale and length was completed successfully and work commenced within the project has been continued until now.
Project timeline: 2006–2008
Title: Rehabilitation and Social Integration of People Who Use Psychoactive Substances or Narcotic Drugs. Development of Innovative Social Service Module
Project focus: Social integration
Partners: Coordinated by Drug, Tobacco and Alcohol Department, other partners include National Association of Addiction Rehabilitation Providers, Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders, Charitable Foundation 'Vilties Svyturys', Charitable Foundation 'AGAPAO', NGO 'Apsisprendimas'
From 2006 to 2008 Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders and a group of partners worked together to implement a project to foster the social integration of people who use psychoactive substances, titled 'Rehabilitation and Social Integration of People Who Use Psychoactive Substances or Narcotic Drugs. Development of Innovative Social Service Module'. The focus of the project was integration of the vulnerable group into the labour market. The main project activities included evaluation of employability skills, assistance in the training and employment processes, provision of labour market information, computer literacy and development of language skills. Almost all of the participants of the project acquired a professional qualification, all of them continued to be trained, and, after the programme, the employment rate after reached as high as 93%. The results of the project exceeded expectations and it was deemed a great success.
Project timeline: 2004–2006
Title: EQUAL
Focus: Social Integration
Partners: Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders, Vilnius City Municipality, NGO 'Social Support Projects' and Vilnius Cooperation College
In 2004 an idea to make the treatment of addictive disorders and relapse prevention even more effective by establishing a base for vocational rehabilitation was born to a group of partners. Vilnius Centre for Addictive Disorders, Vilnius City Municipality, NGO 'Social Support Projects' and Vilnius Cooperation College worked together to implement the project aimed at reduction of social exclusion of vulnerable groups, such as former drug users, and founded a restaurant 'Mano Guru', which started functioning the same year and has been a popular Vilnius catering facility ever since.
Vocational rehabilitation is implemented by providing an opportunity to the patients who have successfully completed a community rehabilitation programme to work in the restaurant as waiters, chefs and bartenders. The approach has a number of benefits, such as fostering motivation, evaluating competences, providing professional guidance and necessary skills, and a starting point for future career. During more than a decade of operation, 'Mano Guru' has proved to be a highly successful social and business initiative. More about the project and its work today can be found on our website, Social Project.

LiftFund underwrote $104 million in small-business loans throughout the Lone Star State throughout the last five years– or about $17.4 million each year.
In the Alamo City, the not-for-profit organization financed $23 million in loans to little businesses, the biggest footprint in the state. By comparison, the company made $18 million in loans inside the Houston market and $14 million in El Paso over a five-year period.
Nivin reported $1.4 billion in overall direct and indirect financial effect or output resulting from that $104 million in small-business loans by LiftFund that includes supplier relationships, taxes and worker payroll. About $67 million was paid by small-business owners to regional and state federal government entities over the very same amount of time.
Its truly based off the brand-new tasks that were produced. We ran them through our impact design which consists of multiplier impacts– however it does not include the advancing impact, Nivin, who likewise functions as the chief economist for the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, informed the crowd during todays press conference.

Hello, friends.
We haven't done a very good job at updating this blog. Dan always seems to be much better at writing and posting than I am, but I will give you all a little info about what is going on.
We continue to get closer and closer to the time for big decisions. We are hoping to be able to ship our container of household items by the beginning of November. Dan has been emailing with 'Missionary Expeditors' (or some similar name) to get all of that worked out. I have been trying to pack a few boxes here and there, like our books and other things that are not needed everyday. Not sure what we will be sleeping on once our beds are gone. Maybe we should just set up our tent in the house. :)
Another big issue for us is where our two dogs will end up. We are not taking them to Africa, so we need to find the family that God has planned for them. I was thinking early on that having them in Iowa with some of my family would be ideal, but now I think anywhere they can be loved and cared for is good enough for me. If you know anyone looking for a couple dogs let us know. They are both between a large and medium size for dogs. One is more relaxed and the other is more hyper.
Dan has also been working with someone to get our airline tickets. We don't have a definite date for departure yet.
On December 5 we have a niece getting married in Washington D.C., and we would like to be out there for that. I think we will be going to Iowa to see my family over Thanksgiving and then continue to drive east for the wedding. Hopefully we can visit with friends and family along the way.
Thank you, everyone, for praying for us. God is always good, and His plan is always perfect.

In a world where international grape varieties, like Chardonnay, dominate, Portugal stands out from the crowd by making wine from predominantly indigenous grape varieties.
Over the last 20 years, since Portugal joined the EU, there has been a huge transformation in their winemaking and the resulting wines. Methods and machinery have been brought up to modern standards, but thankfully the plantations of local grape vines have been retained, giving Portuguese wine a true identity.

Peninsula Campaign | General George B. McClellan | General Robert E. Lee | General John B. Magruder | Drewry's Bluff | General Joseph E. Johnston | J.E.B Stuart's Ride Around McClellan | Seven Days' Battles
During spring 1862, Major General George Brinton McClellan's Union army advanced up the Virginia Peninsula toward the Confederate capital. The campaign involved the largest amphibious operation of the war and saw perhaps Robert E. Lee's best chance to destroy the Army of the Potomac. Arriving just outside Richmond, the Federals enjoyed superior numbers, yet during a week of almost continuous fighting the Rebels used aggressive attacks to drive the Yankees away. Northern armies would not get as close to Richmond for two more years, and Southerners discovered the leader whose subsequent victories helped build and sustain Confederate nationalism. Most important, the campaign helped lead to the decision to use emancipation as a means of saving the Union.
Historians have long underappreciated the campaign's role in emancipation. Typically, the best works on the subject focus mainly on the leadership of the Army of Northern Virginia, arguing that the campaign's largest impact was the rise of the commander who would allow the South to fight on for three bloody years. This interpretation unfortunately still dominates popular perceptions, as a quick review of online sources such as Wikipedia attests. The most comprehensive book on the subject, Stephen Sears's To the Gates of Richmond, adds a well-supported analysis of George McClellan, demonstrating him as politically at odds with the Lincoln administration. Nevertheless, only more recently have scholars such as Mark Grimsley, Gary Gallagher, and myself, stressed the campaign's critical role in emancipation.[1]
At the start of the war, Lincoln repeatedly insisted that his only war aim was the preservation of the Union. His Republican party aimed for the extinction of slavery, but understood that the Constitution protected it in the states where it existed. Therefore, their anti-slavery strategy was to prevent the institution from spreading to the western territories, stop using the government to support the system, and to encourage gradual and compensated emancipation. This platform led to Lincoln's 1860 election victory (and to the secession of the Confederate states in reaction) and he consistently maintained this position until the aftermath of the Peninsula Campaign.
Military events quickly challenged the North's commitment to not touch slavery in the southern states. In July 1861, Union troops were repulsed at Manassas in their first big movement into Virginia. Northern newspapers quickly pointed out that slave-built fortifications there had slowed the northern advance, and most shockingly, they claimed that blacks had been seen fighting alongside their masters. These concerns played a large role in Congress's passage of the First Confiscation Act, allowing Union armies to confiscate slaves that the Confederates had used in their military efforts.
Subsequently, emancipationists increasingly insisted that beyond the moral imperative to free the slaves, the government should do it as a "military necessity" under constitutionally granted war powers.[2] They pointed out that Southerners were forcing slaves to build entrenchments and that some were being coerced into combat. If the war continued, they maintained, the South would continue to use their enslaved population in these capacities in ever-growing numbers. Additionally, if the North were to free the slaves, it would not only take a strength away from the South, it would add that strength to the Union cause.
Still, most Northerners believed that twenty-one million Yankees could defeat nine million Southerners even if they were using their slaves in military roles. In 1861 there was little reason to believe otherwise. Lincoln's December address to Congress indicated that he was also not ready to accept the "military necessity" argument. These sentiments were widely praised across the North.
Meanwhile, the loss at Manassas led Lincoln to promote George B. McClellan. The cocky thirty-four-year-old officer had recently cleared the western part of Virginia of Rebel forces and now Lincoln needed him to whip the Army of the Potomac back into shape and restore its morale. McClellan competently accomplished these tasks, leading to his promotion to general-in-chief of all Union armies.
The new commander began planning a campaign to capture the Confederate capital. Rather than advance over the same ground on which they had already been repulsed, McClellan decided to float the Army of the Potomac down river around the southern defenses in northern Virginia and land the troops at Urbanna, a coastal town on Virginia's Middle Peninsula. From there, his army would capture West Point and then use the York River railroad to advance to the outskirts of Richmond. As a backup, McClellan envisioned landing farther south at Fort Monroe and marching up the Virginia Peninsula to get to West Point.
In early March 1862, however, Confederate General Joseph Eggleston Johnston unexpectedly abandoned his lines at Manassas, re-concentrating south of the Rappahannock River. Learning of the movement, McClellan's characteristic paranoia caused him to suspect that Johnston had discovered the Urbanna plan and thus he settled on landing at Fort Monroe. At the end of the month, the Army of the Potomac began its amphibious shift to the Virginia Peninsula.

REYNOSA, Tamaulipas — An law enforcement operation into the theft of fuel by the Gulf Cartel appears to have been the cause of a brazen attack by the criminal organization where they shot the offices of Mexico's Attorney General's Office (PGR) in this border city.
On Monday afternoon, the PGR announced the arrest of the leader of an organized crime cell that is responsible for tapping into Mexico's fuel lines in order to sell the product on the black market in Reynosa. Reynosa is immediately south of McAllen and Hidalgo Texas. The PGR office in Reynosa in on the city's southwestern side on one of the main boulevard's called Hidalgo.
The PGR did not name the criminal organization that the cell belonged to, however, as Breitbart Texas previously reported, the Gulf Cartel has been controlling the border cities of Reynosa and Matamoros using the theft of fuel as one of their money makers.
The arrest took place on Friday in Reynosa when authorities arrested Iván "El Bam Bam"Beas Belmonte, the leader of the cell, and his henchmen Ricardo Martínez Cantú and Nohemí Alejandra Rodríguez Guevara, authorities said claiming the arrest was carried out by federal police forces. During the arrest, authorities seized weapons, approximately $76,970 Pesos (about $5,000 dollars), six cell phones and a vehicle.
Soon after the arrest the suspects were flown out of Reynosa.
On Monday the two men were formally charged by a federal judge in the Altiplano in the State of Mexico, while Rodriguez was charged at a women's prison in the State of Morelos.
As Breitbart Texas reported, on Monday early morning, two SUVs with gunmen rammed the front gate of the PGR building in Reynosa and then began to shoot up the building. The attack did not leave any injuries, however, citizens remain alert since the added tension between cartel gunmen and military could result in large scale gun battles at any moment.

text: Hi All, I have had my wii for approx 18 months now and have had no problems at all. All of a sudden it is struggling to play backups but will play original games fine. With backups now get read errors and a clicking noise from the drive. Can the drive be cleaned with the dvd laser cleaning kit? I dont really want to send it to Nintendo as in Australia they are bad. Would it be worth me upgrading to 3.3e as i already have the homebrew channel installed to play trunch games? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers
