The good news in all this is that by going bigger and bolder than expected, Mr. Obama may finally have set the stage for a political debate about job creation. For, in the end, nothing will be done until the American people demand action.

Germany vs. Europe
Everything comes around again. You show distress at a Germany hesitant to contribute to shared prosperity; forced, kicking and screaming, into salvaging a currency regime that they were by far the strongest in muscling others to accept, even with its absurd embedded assumptions of a Euro-sameness sufficient to sustain a common market and currency, with no common language, common culture or even commonly held political tenets. But I'm a lot more concerned about resurgent German nationalism: last time it reared its head a funny little WWI corporal led them to a scorching of the world. Forget Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain (the PIGS); if I were France I'd start thinking how the Maginot Line might be made to work finally in the Twenty-First Century.Not a war. Macro only seems opaque.

Capturing Canine Beauty at Westminster
Unfortunately no one told Mr. COnrad that you NEVER EVER photograph white dogs or dogs with large areas of white against a white background. SOmeof the photos of the breeds that are white look like two eyes and a nose floating in space. If photographing a lot of different dogs, the best backgrounds ot use are a pale green or a pale blue. All breeds and colors will show up then. Do NOT use white. Do NOT use tan (light brown breeds disappear against that.) Do NOT use black. Do NOT use a yellow (golden or light yellow - like Labs - disappear against that,) And never ever use a slick surface if you expect the animal to stand. Nice try for one not experienced in dealing with contrasts when the subjects vary in colors from white to light tan to dark brown to black.

Hamas Rejects Red Cross Plea Over Gilad Shalit
“Hamas again rejects Red Cross plea to prove Israeli hostage is still alive - http://nyti.ms/lrbBzV”If Hamas could produce him they would.He would be a better tool alive and there.My guess is that he is dead. He could be elsewhere but how?If they admit that he has died they give up what leverage he provides.
