-ne Comisión EnergiaEnergía medio ambiente alimentos: aportes para una reflexión sistémica(documento para debatir)La posibilidad de usar soja o maíz con un nuevo destino, el energético, afectará seriamente su precio como materias primas alimenticias, por el simple hecho de generar una demanda incremental y sostenidaLa globalización no significa solamente la unificación de los mercados, posibilitada por la enorme agilización de las comunicaciones y por la absoluta movilidad de los capitales. En ese sentido, la seguridad en la disponibilidad de la energía necesaria para mantener y expandir la calidad de vida actual es seguramente el tema que hoy domina el espacio de las decisiones estratégicas de la política mundial. Vale la pena esclarecer la relación entre los tres espacios, antes de formular algunas reflexiones sobre las posibles políticas.El problema, a nuestro juicio, es de cantidad, también de calidad y también de poder.La cantidadLa base de la oferta energética, tanto para producción de electricidad, como para abastecer la inmensa flota de vehículos que circula por el globo, es el petróleo y el gas. Hay ya un amplio damero de opciones de generación y consumo descentralizados, que harían menos necesarios los sistemas de producción y distribución de alta concentración, como los actuales.El interés nacionalPara tener los elementos completos que lleven a definir una política de interés nacional en el tema hace falta evaluar dos cuestiones:- El uso alternativo de la tierra para los llamados cultivos energéticos o casi lo mismo: el uso alternativo del propio producto como alimento o como materia prima energética.- El ámbito donde se consume la energía disponible o generada. Para el etanol, el balance energético neto es tan negativo que no queda claro qué gana el país con la propuesta, mas allá del eventual beneficio empresario fruto de una relación de precios internacionales favorable al etanol.ConclusiónEl presente es un breve documento que no tiene objetivo superior al de señalar que el problema energético es de naturaleza compleja en grado sumo. Ocuparse de la energía lleva de manera inmediata a entender además la relación de ella con el medio ambiente, el uso de la tierra o la disponibilidad de alimentos. que se resuelva en términos simples de mercado, con la intervención espontánea de emprendedores, que toman los precios vigentes o previstos de las distintas formas de energía como su elemento de referencia central para las decisiones.Creemos, en cambio, que se necesitan análisis profundos, apasionados detrás del interés nacional y que puedan ver y sopesar todas las facetas del problema.Ing.

-ne Encuentro Regional en RosarioINICIATIVA IIRSA(documento para debatir)INFRAESTRUCTURA“Teniendo en cuenta estos orígenes y destinos, la red vial para el traslado de la producción de soja en el interior de la República Argentina debe apuntalar a consolidar yfortalecer los ejes y corredores que permitan la salida de la misma por los puertos de laHidrovía Paraná-Paraguay y el Océano Atlántico en la provincia de Buenos Aires. Estos corredores, en el caso específico del Cono Sur de Latinoamérica, tienen como finalidad lograr un espacio integrado con una infraestructura de transporte que facilite el flujo y movimiento de bienes-personas y permita concretar, con eficiencia y eficacia, las operaciones de comercio interior y exterior por medio de una comunicaciónbioceánica entre el Atlántico y el Pacífico.Este tipo de enlaces, fundamentalmente viales pero aptos para su inserción en un esquema multimodal, facilita la salida de las producciones de toda la región interior de la República Argentina hacia Oriente, Occidente y los países limítrofes, con menores costos operativos de transporte y una reducción en los tiempos de viaje.Los proyectos que se han priorizado son los siguientes:• En dicho informe se definen los corredores viales, ferroviarios e hidroviarios más importantes en función de la valorización de los flujos de exportación para el año 1999.Fuente: Foro de la Cadena Agroindustrial año 2005Tres Ramales de FFCC.- Hidrovía y Puertos Privados (14 en el Cordón Industrial)“Si se analiza la red ferroviaria en el norte de nuestro país, uno de los principales nodosde intercambio multimodal de cargas que sería de gran utilidad consolidar para eltransporte de soja a los Puertos del Gran Rosario se daría en Resistencia-Corrientes,donde confluyen los tres modos de transporte: vial, ferroviario y fluvial. Tampoco se analizan los impactos ambientales acumulativos de todas estas obras (ya que lo usual es hacer los estudios proyecto por proyecto), y mucho menos el impacto del mismo modelo extractivo, que está arrasando con monte nativo, extrayendo nutrientes, contaminando el agua y expulsando poblaciones campesinas y originarias de sus territorios.En Santa Fe, provincia, y en la Ciudad de Rosario, estos planes anuncian mayor facilidad de radicación de nuevas industrias, para lo cual se las exime del pago de todo tributo.

-ne PORTLAND, Maine — Here’s something that sounds almost too good to be true: A soft drink that can actually help a person lose weight.The drink, called Celsius, is manufactured by a Florida company and is now hitting shelves in Maine, Portland television station WMTW reported.Its makers claim that Celsius is the first clinically-proven, calorie-burning soda, asserting that each bottle will burn up to 77 calories over a three- to four-hour period.The secret, said Janice Haley of Elite FX, is in the natural ingredients, which include green tea, ginger and B vitamins.Haley explained, The way Celsius works, it raises your metabolism by 12 percent.The station held a taste test, and while most first-time Celsius samplers raved about the taste, many found the claims that a soda can burn calories a little hard to swallow.Exercise physiologist Dawn Strout said she is skeptical.

-ne Features of the week: Still battling to settle the initial 50 per cent of its preferred bid, Transnational Corporation (Transcorp), latest owner of the Nigerian Telecommunications Limited (NITEL), has some hurdles to surmount, reports REMMY NWEKE. NITEL Incorporated in 1974, NITEL, was a dominant fixed line operator in the country before the liberalisation of the telecom industry. In addition, NITEL has 7.33 per cent share in South Atlantic Telecommunication/ West African Submarine Cable Organisation (SAT3/WASC), 6.91 per cent share in Regional African Satellite Organisation (RASCOM), 0.21 per cent share in International Maritime Satellite Organisation (INMARSAT), 0.60 per cent share in International Telecommunication Satellite Organisation(INTELSAT) which was liquidated last year as a result of Intelsat privatization, and 0.07 per cent shares in ICO Global Communications Ltd (I-CO). State of Transcorp in NITEL At the proclamation of NITEL sale, BPE had indicated that Transcorp would pay 50 per cent of the total bid, which amounts to 00m, within seven working days, but as at Friday, July 13, Transcorp paid only 10 per cent, which is N9.6bn, while asking for renegotiation of the terms from 51 per cent share for Transcorp and 24 for its technical partners led by BT to 38 and 37 respectively. Negotiated deal option BPE led by Mrs. Irene Chigbue while explaining the reason behind the choice of negotiated deal with Transcorp, said it was precipitated by several factors including the antecedent of selling NITEL over the years on three occasions, which proved abortive. Initially, BPE said, NITEL loses value daily as liabilities increase and revenue declines and that in 2003, for instance, NITEL liabilities amounted to N73.8bn. “This is a great day for all NITEL stakeholders and a significant step for NITEL that will drive real choice for customers on a national basis.” Fate One issue that has been on the mind of stakeholders since July 3, has been the antecedents of Transcorp and its promoters. He accused BPE of collaborating with FG to dispose NITEL at what he called “a give away price.” Additionally, he alleged Transcorp was fronting for a top government official, with a specific interest in the changed rules of the game from 51 to 75 per cent shares meant for sale as was offered for bidding before now.

Know your priorities.The evening was filled with the beautiful voices of Michael Feinstein and Linda Eder…singing Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Gershwin tunes, with a smattering of Rogers and Hart.They both have an ease about them, music and words flowing effortlessly, with a down to earth way of humor and expression, that made those of us in the audience feel as though we were sitting in our best friend’s livingroom.My mom and I soaked up the music, the words, the voices, and humor.Linda Eder sang a song called If I Could, that just blew me away. These two verses sum up everything a parent must come to terms with as their child grows:If I couldI would try to shield your innocence from timeBut the part of life I gave you isn’t mineI’ve watched you growSo I could let you goIf I couldI would help you make it through the hungry yearsBut I know that I can never cry your tearsBut I wouldIf I couldThe part of life I gave you isn’t mine…I’ve watched you grow so I could let you go…Those words just about knocked the breath out of me.My mother and I thoroughly enjoyed the evening…hopefully a memory we will take with us for many years to come.I thought about the concert all day today.

15), I went to the garage park in Diffa for a car going through Nigeria to Chad. Got back into the car to cross into Nigeria. You go back to Niamey, get Nigeria visa and come back.”“But I don’t want to go back to Niamey.”“You want to enter Chad?”“Yes.”“To enter Chad through Nigeria you need Nigerian visa. Once you have visa you can come back here and travel through to Chad.”“What about Nguigmi?” [Nguigmi is a town in eastern Niger, further east and north of Diffa which shows on the map it’s a border post to enter Chad – through the desert]“Yes. The border patrol took me back to the car, ordered the driver to give me the bulk of my money back, and took my stuff out of the car. The car continued on to Nigeria without me.The guard would escort me out of Nigeria, on his motorcycle, if I paid for his fuel. He drove me all the way back to the car park and helped me find the correct region for Nguigmi. [Different towns have different regions within the car park for the cars to wait to fill up] I thanked him for the ride and he went back to his own country.By noon a car was ready to go to Nguigmi. The ride was suppose to take only three hours. The three hour rule was said by the Doctors using 4WD in a private car. We waited on the side of the road for three hours as the driver took the spare, found a motorcycle to borrow, rode back into town, got a new tire and rode back.Two hours later, another flat tire. An hour-and-half later he’s back again with a new tire.Those two flat tires cost us a six hour delay. 16At the car park to N’Djamena the “big boss man” was trying to find a car for me. You go to N’Djamena for 25,000.”He found a car to take me for 0 and I got in the front. add to that the few dollars I kept from the exchange in Nigeria, and emergency American money.I was in the back, with Ali the driver and Yahyah as front passenger. If you look on a map, to get to Chad from Nguigmi you have to go through the desert and that’s exactly what we did – as a caravan of cars. The acrobats the cars did wasn’t made for the cars. The ride was meant for a dune buggy and we were in a regular car doing donuts and jumping hills (once we were on two wheels!). I would sleep in the car, in the passenger’s seat, while they slept outside. As I laid down in the car the kids came back. Monday the headmaster at the school will take care of it.”I wasn’t sure if we was telling the truth or not. There’s a volunteer stationed in Bol, but since I didn’t know when we would leave I took a nap instead by the car. It was four o’clock.We drove for an hour, stopped for an hour. Dinner.We drove for an hour, stopped for an hour. It just didn’t taste right.There’s one good thing about paying that 0 for the 3-day ride: you have the option of stopping the entire car when you have to go to the bathroom. Whoever wrote that must not have gotten a good deal on the trip.At four o’clock we finally left Massaguet for N’Djemana.Same procedureWe drove for an hour, stopped for an hour. Dinner.We drove for an hour, stopped for an hour. they fed me, toured me around the city, and even let me sleep at their house without any charge other then for the ride down] Back at the office I was pleased to find that the Associate Director invited me to stay at his house for the night since I hadn’t found a place to stay yet.

And just 49 percent call Bush a strong and decisive leader (a drop from 54 percent in July), while 50 percent now say they question his honesty. another 43 percent say they harbor a moderate amount of confidence, and 31 percent say they have little or no confidence that the administration will do the work necessary.The same survey finds 32 percent of Americans continuing to express their faith in the prez’s management of the Iraq war (which has now lasted more than two years and claimed the lives of almost 1,900 U.S. soldiers), while 67 percent say they disapprove of Bush’s handling of that conflict. Fifty-four percent would like war spending slashed in order to pay for Gulf Coast recovery efforts, and 45 percent say they’re willing to make “major sacrifices” in order to cover the exorbitant costs of post-hurricane rebuilding.Meanwhile, SurveyUSA reports that “a ‘can’t win’ dynamic is unfolding for the president.” The latest SUSA poll shows that 40 percent of Americans now approve of Bush’s response to the hurricane, down from 42 percent before his Big Easy speech. Forty-one percent of SUSA respondents say that New Orleans should be reconstructed using private funds, “the highest that number has been in the 19 days since the storm.” Those contending that public money should be used instead amounts to 27 percent, “as low as it has been in 19 days of daily tracking.”And while the majority of criticism leveled at Bush recently has come from Democrats and independents, it seems now that his fellow conservatives have declared open season on his ass as well.

Cleek: Ooohhh statistics

September 28th, 2008 by admin

Array while I’ll always love the character as he appeared in those eight 1960’s issues by Sergio Aragones, Denny O’Neil and Nick Cardy, almost every revival attempt and guest appearance has been flat and bland. Methinks the latter.Nice Doug Mahnke cover for SEVEN SOLDIERS: FRANKENSTEIN #2, featuring my old buddy Spawny, all reimagined for these dark and gloomy times.Fans of old DC war comics are surely salivating over SGT. Can’t buy everything!Ladies and germs, I give you the final issue of the title voted most likely to defy all expectations of longevity, PLASTIC MAN #20. I flirted with this title a while ago, but after an admittedly clever issue or two, mostly involving Kyle Baker having some fun with DC’s superhero community, I got tired of the slapdash art and recycled Tom & Jerry plots, and bailed. I turned my back, no pun intended, on the smirky, sophomoric, FHM magazine-level spy hijinx of Danger Girl a long time ago, and I won’t be buying the comeback mini DANGER GIRL: BACK IN BLACK, but this cover image for issue #3 certainly appeals to my love of cheesecake pinup art. I haven’t had an opportunity to write about it yet, but I was kinda impressed with the preview which appeared in the latest issue of Fables, so I’ll be picking this up for a while, it appears.And that’s it for DC. This looks fun, with lotsa dead superheroes coming back as zombies or something, but it will be a game time decision in regards to whether I’ll buy.DAUGHTERS OF THE DRAGON #1 (of 6) gives us a long-overdue spotlight on two supporting characters that used to appear in Claremont and Byrne’s 70’s issues of Iron Fist, back before they became major annoyances. I don’t know what, if anything, has been done with them since then (I know they had some 70’s kung-fu magazine backups and appeared in Power Man/Iron Fist) but this triggers the nostalgic response in my head so I’ll be buying.NEXTWAVE #1 (of 12) looks like it could be fun, and I like the samples I’ve seen so far. Oh well, I’ll most likely pick it up regardless- I love me some Carrot.In the text of the solicit for MICHAEL GOLDEN?S MONSTERS PORTFOLIO they describe him as The elusive artist…, which evokes images of the Image guys dressed in pith helmets and jungle gear, stalking Golden with tranquilizer darts.Arthur Suydam has had his moments in the past, and he’s a fine artist overall, but his ORIGINAL ADVENTURES OF CHOLLY & FLYTRAP always struck me as poor man’s Vaughn Bode.

It was more of a research project than a straight memo, and my boss knew that the fucker was going to be really long), I should be able to settle into being a law student again.Now that my memo is gone, and I will only be working 2 days a week, as opposed to 3, I should be able to get a grasp on my classes.I just pray that I don’t end up on AP.

VIVER EM PAZ É VIVER EM ALEGRIA: PROPAGANDA DOS ANOS 80 - MUITO ATUAL

September 25th, 2008 by admin

Array-ne Bugün alışverişe çıkarken, basket topu da almaya karar vermiştim.İçimdeki bene 80 kilo olduğunu söyleyince, ilk iş daha önce anlattığım gibi iştah ve doygunluk hissimi kontrol altına almıştı; Vazgeçmiş olmasam da sürekli bir bedensel etkinlik sağlamada yeterli olmayabilir.Birkaç aydır ben bunlarla oyalanırken, 80 kilo olduğuma karar verip bunu içimdeki bene tebliği ettiğimden bir iki gün sonra basket topu almıştım bile. Sağlıklı bir 80 kilo bedeninin etkinlik seviyesini de yakalayınca, geriye yapacak pek bir şey kalmayacak gibi.Bu arada alışverişte, Mehmet Öz’ün ‘Siz kullanma kılavuzunuz’ serisinin devamı gibi olan ‘Siz diyettesiniz’ kitabını da gördüm.

O Manolo Galván é pouco conhecido no Brasil mas é muito famoso na Espanha e no Chile.LETRA:Serena como un cielo de veranoTendiéndome su manoMe dijo que hay caminos con espinasQue dañan las vidasQue ya no necesita mis palabrasQue quiere andar su vida ya sin míY descubro que mi orgullo era mentiraY de nuevo con mis lágrimas dije asi:Te quise, te quiero y te querré (Coro 1)De la forma que tu quieres que te quieraY no hay nada ni nadieNi lo habráQue me pueda hacer pensar de otra maneraMe dices que me vaya yo me voyPero mi alma vivirá en tu habitaciónTe dije, te digo y te diréQue te quiero más que a nadieY te querré de la forma que tú quieres que te quiera.Serena como un cielo de veranoOfreciéndome tu manoMe has dicho quiero andarOtro caminoEs el principio de una vida sin tu amorY descubro que mi orgullo era mentiraY de nuevo con mis lágrimas te dije asi:(Coro 1)

Además, la población inmigrante contribuye vía cotizaciones en unos 8.000 millones de euros, mientras que sólo reciben 400 millones de euros en pensiones.Estos son algunos de los datos macroeconómicos analizados en unas jornadas europeas sobre inmigración y comercio, celebradas en la Casa Llotja de Mar de Barcelona a principio de verano.En el acto de clausura, que presidió el jefe del Ejecutivo catalán, José Montilla, este destacó la intensa actividad comercial de la inmigración porque ‘es la puerta de entrada a la patria de acogida’ y demuestra que ‘el ascensor social’ funciona. El 50 por ciento de los inmigrantes que trabajan por su cuenta tiene una tienda (30 por ciento) o un restaurante (20 por ciento), lo que ha supuesto una renovación de la estructura comercial y de restauración de la ciudad.El 45 por ciento de los restaurantes y bares de la capital catalana tienen menos de 6 años de antigüedad y en uno de cada tres (35 por ciento) ofrece platos de cocina no española.
