Is Ice Cream Good For Heartburn



As the pregnant females that give birth when surprised away from home, so you gave birth to me far from my homeland.

can not choose where to be born nor the place to run out of days in this world .... O yes. However, you can choose and why or who would come to kill and, especially, how we die.

And I die for you, you and in you, because it gave you like, Tacita piconera, herring and infinite. And like me, many others, wherever they are.

starts today Cluster Competition Cadiz Carnival 2011. Ring today for the first time more choruses and will never be new, which wears between her lips, sometimes they just hummed because memory is short and the repertoire of the years, thank God, long. From now on guitars rip chords and riffs that after such pasodobles recognize as the voice of a loved one. As one who, noting any scars, remember the sweet wound that bled in his day. Today tremble in the distance in space and closer proximity, when His Majesty the Tango bar as the sea the corners of my soul, becoming foam against the confines of rocks.


And we all know that the COAC is not Carnival. Indeed, much is being done in recent years to isolate how much more so in essence means that divine human feast, and much is scratching the maxim of "heritage of Cadiz" (who, incidentally, was born where he comes to to please without ceasing to be a Gadite in all its glory). The competition is a war says, a logical rivalry, a struggle to a final destination has never be a trophy but, rather, a treasure: Cádiz. And in that battle to understand some things can come to understand: envy, competition, last-minute twists ... but always under the banner of the conquest of something much bigger than any man of flesh and bone, that any woman of skin and heat, much larger than any name surname (whether Paco Alba or god Momo). If this beautiful struggle whose skirmishes enjoy the fans and to stop killing of envy songs on the Song of Songs and its predecessors successive or caste is not covered in the Carnaval de Cadiz here cut the matter. If ninguneo, despises, or underestimate the marketing plays that feel the pulse beat with the rhythm ... I'm sorry, gentlemen, but nobody dares to wear the medal carnival. That above you and me, of you, great authors, and any song is Carnival and is Cadiz. And nothing would be neither the one nor the other without people, without the street, without salt, without a smile or a tear ("no one has invented a word that is able to combine the sensation as it is mourn carnival laughter, laugh tenderness, the complaint pouting naked, shuddering with the chords, break a tendon with any joke, feel in penalties while the joys ...?). Nothing would be the carnival if the song did not shake the senses and legs, if not shake the chill, if laughter is not sprout if the palms were not sincere. Because when a song comes out of the throat part of Cádiz and Carnival becomes, and these are you and me.


But, even knowing that Carnival is more than COAC, for many today is the first of many nights when you feel closer to what is his or, rather, closer to what belonging. What can we do, Gades, if your roots submerged cemented in mine and I know when I'm with you I feel at home. And although the exile has its difficult points, I knew I was away I do not regret if I have you inside. I do not regret the physical distance, because as I said a pro Cadiz who knows a lot about all this: "Remember that Cadiz is where you are" (Thanks, Antonio, provided by ...). Because knowing you're there, añorarte is an exercise in sweetness and joy.



So today is a special night. So the COAC, with all its human glory and all its miseries, we drink it in sips long and thirsty lot. Because it's like to feel the breeze by the Alameda, the humming of the waves for the Southern Ocean, the joy of Ball Street, Plaza las Flores or Mentidero. And being in the place you belong to a few nights, but subtract sleep, feel tremendously well.


So ... welcome, COAC 2011. Today:

The Pension Cuts

I use the term Trim (Instead of the politically correct Reform), because, ultimately, is that what we are talking about. And not surprising sluggish, passivity and lack of public resistance and citizens in general. Maybe it's because we've all come to accept that the alternative would be worse, or something.
A schematic illustration of the demographic pyramid
(Source: finanzzas )

is clear that this cut is almost bound by a set of circumstances, known to all. The demographic pyramid, which threatens to retire in the next years of baby boomers and the shortage of revenue due to inactivity rate (or failure) excessively high, are the immediate triggers of having to deal with this reform now. The latest figures for 2010 issued by the Secretary of State for Social Security (in which a minimum surplus proceeds from the interests of the Reserve Fund) predict large bump in the coming years, if not change boundary conditions. That is, if not trimmed rights citizens to receive public pensions after retirement.

Unions (which often appear to be part of the state apparatus) have been sitting with the Government and agreed a number of changes (read cuts) on the contributory pension system. Basically delay the retirement age from 65 to 67 years, and also 37 years of contributions required to achieve the maximum pension. That is, overall, both variables are increased by two years.

There are a number of amending and recitals, which should be taken into account. The transition to retirement at age 67 will be gradual. Between 2013 and 2018 will increase as a result of one month per year, while between 2019 and 2027 will increase two months per year. In other words, children born to 1947 may retire at age 65. Those born after 1960 can not retire until age 67. And for those who were born between these two years we will be playing one in between.

Anyone can continue to retire at age 65, provided that he proves 38.5 years of contributions (which looks more like a prison sentence). And there are some special considerations for professional stage fellow, where there will be a formula stating that the contribution period (up to a maximum of two years, but I have not clear who would pay) and for women who have interrupted their working lives to care for their newborn children, for whom contributions will also count as a maximum period of two years.

But let the reality of the country and citizens. I have worked almost thirty years in a multinational, and only remember a person retiring at age 65 (and, coincidentally, was Director of Human Resources). The vast majority were invited to retire early under various forms of incentive . For example, for two years to collect unemployment benefits, and receive compensation to compensate for the years that are missing each for reaching the statutory retirement age. Or the simple statutory compensation for unfair dismissal.

In general, it seems clear (although we should let us look) that companies do not want to keep a professional staff well beyond the fifties and not many years. After fifty, the odds of being expelled from the labor market are very high. Until the age of retirement, each is looking for life, working as a freelance Chapucillas, doing some consulting (often even for the company that ousted him) or anything else to supplement income to a level that can be enough. And by establishing a special agreement with Social Security, pay it out of pocket for a few years, to suffer no reduction in the amount of the pension to have the right ending.

Moreover, young people are engaged in some type of college, there are many times that at thirty still are engaged in temporary employment schemes, with wages barely mileuristas and without any expectation of loyalty to the company contracts with fixed and / or career plans.

Under these conditions, getting thirty years contribution and it seems a challenge, the more you get to 37. For a graduate of 30 years get a job stabilize at more or less fixed (or at least indefinitely), with reasonable salary and full contribution to Social Security, your only hope (rather useless) is to stay in work activity with virtually no interruptions to 67 years, which atesoraría the 37 years of contributions that would guarantee the maximum pension. Remember that any interruption, provided it is covered by unemployment insurance, has for all purposes as a period of insurance. But if at any time is dismissed and the grant runs out, the mirage of the 37 years of contributions as the mist vanishes.

This, in practice, means that the objective is that fewer workers reach retirement age are entitled to 100% of the benefit that corresponds, according to their contribution base . To this we add that to a certain level professionals, which in its normal working life can reach higher than the maximum compensation recognized by the Social Security System (in 2011 I think it's 3,230 Euros per month), even the maximum pension represent only part of the wage payment that can be perceived before retirement (Maybe even only around 50%).

Finally, all the machinery is prepared to reduce (until 2029, then the flow of income to the pension system will be directly the population pyramid) the number of people reaching the legal age retirement with pension rights, on the one hand and the other to reach it without the right to receive 100% of the pension attributable to them.

Reform.

With clarity, and to speak so as to understand, this is a reform that involves a cut in benefits that the state must pay citizens. Is the toll we pay to maintain a public pension system by the method of distribution. And, of course, is a stab in the so-called welfare state.

Although I do not know all the details (if any readers I may illustrate, I'd appreciate it), Sweden, who happens to be one of the leaders in this welfare state began reforming its pension system in 1993, to introduce a mixed system of distribution and capitalization. We must recognize that the Nordics are few but clever, and knows to anticipate the play.

Now what is left is to trust that when we emerge from the crisis and the economy growing again, the state known to be generous with the redistribution of that wealth, and check to increase the amounts agreed to pensions. Of course, with growth, it's easy to return inflation rates higher than we've had in recent years, which can be finished eating these increases.

I wonder, with all this, see the extremely responsible citizens who are English, we have accepted these cuts without hardly raised an eyebrow. The French, with similar initiatives had seven general strikes against Sarkozy, with a dramatic mobilization of the citizenry. Of course, eventually ended up swallowing cuts like a champion. Because the base is subject only addition and subtraction, and simple. And this is what you get.

far, Zapatero and his government have scored a point to reach agreement on this matter with the unions. Angela Merkel on Thursday in Madrid came to bless your diligent student, and have made pictures for everyone to use in the upcoming election campaign. The PP, in his dream life, and may be wondering if you said NOT to yield consistently positive. Because in this picture, of course, are not. And if they were the ones who occupied the Government in these days, it would have as much or more than the Socialists in applying the (same) necessary cuts. Only, if any, may have against the unions.

Really, I do not understand Rajoy. I suspect they are so convinced that the government born after 11-M is a usurper, and that 2012 elections will give them a big advantage, they seem to be only looking to spend time idling in his corner. Should be aware that the voter remembers those who have worked and have not given a stick to water. The power will not return to his hands just at the beginning unperturbed pendulum swing of history. Must earn it, fellas. Zapatero, with all these reforms like the European Union has gained a whole and see what they say the next polls. Today it is emerging as the candidate of the PSOE in 2012, something that seemed unthinkable only a few weeks ago.

And while the voters most radical left cursing walk the halls (and the comments to the news about cutting pensions) complaining that the Socialist Government is doing things were not in its election manifesto of 2008. Also they should abandon their dreams and to, again, down to earth. Do not think anyone will ask a government to resign for taking special funds to repair earthquake damage, only because "the earthquake was not in his electoral program."

And that is falling in economics is similar to an earthquake that undermines the foundations (brittle, so it looks) of a welfare state which we were all proud. Social democracy has died.

Luckily we will always have ham and wine, but the ham is of top dressing and the wine is young, which are not times for extravagance ...

Reviews Of Laci De Beau's Super Dieters Tea

A pheasant should stop flying

For the sewers of the State (any state) does not circulate never anything good for your health. In the sewers are ventilated compromises that citizens need not know. That, possibly, a healthier ignore.

Irun (Author: Javier Hernández; Source: El País )

There
in the State Budget, approved each year by the Congress of Deputies, a game of Reserved Funds whose destination and use can not be known (as wisely said Felipe Gonzalez recently) precisely why they are reserved .

These funds, generally speaking, are used to avoid clogging the sewers of the State. With them will be paid informers, be exchanged favors, will buy loyalties, always (theoretically) with the principle of avoid greater evils.

That said, nobody is above the law but does not seem reasonable to impute to senior officials to use them for what (non writing-mode, it is true) are intended.

The March 22, 2006, ETA announced a ceasefire or permanent ceasefire . By all indications, as part of a negotiation process in which the Zapatero government had placed great hopes. The process itself was, of course, debatable, but I think he always encouraged the attempt to avoid greater evils. It proved a failure with the attack on the parking Barajas T4 the last day of that year (I still remember the monster jam that I had to swallow Saturday filter that police boarded the knot Manoteras de Madrid).

(Source: World )

In any conversation in the sewers is difficult to know if you are talking to the boss , even in such issues is difficult to know who is boss. Maybe the attack was planned, led and conducted by what we might call internal dissidents of the band. By ventilating with a few words.

In the spring of 2006, was plotting a macrooperación National Court (led by Judge Grande-Marlaska) against ETA's extortion unit, ie, against the collection of machinery called revolutionary tax. In this operation, one of the places that were in the target was Behobia Pheasant Bar (Irun), and the owner of Joseba Imanol Elosua Urbieta, the then nearly 70 years of age.

I do not know (I think that all ordinary citizens are ignorant) what role might be playing or have played this man in conversation that seems to be taking place through the sewers at that time. For some reason, the leadership of the Ministry of Interior to make it convenient for Elosua the warn you of that operation, so he could take any action it deems appropriate. Perhaps with that he was paid a favor due, or earned the right to ask a favor later. For sewers things work well.

So a little bizarre, it seems that someone (a member of the Police National, apparently) Elosúa handed a mobile phone to a third party called to warn him of the ongoing operation and inform you of some details that could only meet people close to the investigation. A conversation between Elosua and son in the car that he had put microphones under the operation against the network of extortion, revealed the leak.

The night of 20 to 21 June 2006 broke the police and judicial operation against the network. Logically, we know what Elosua could save (hide, redirect, clean ,...) in that month and a half, since the leak.

You can see a little history of the events and subsequent trial in Wikipedia , with direct links to various reports in the press at the time.

summary into the net primary extortion, initiated by Baltasar Garzon following the departure of Grande-Marlaska of the Court, he tore into separate summary of the leak issue. At the request of the Prosecutor (who wielded various reasons rather crude), Garzon decided to file the record. The Popular Party, shocked , appeared as private prosecutor, in order to keep the record. And the organization Dignity and Justice followed the steps.

Recently, Judge Ruz (also of the Audiencia Nacional) has decided to reopen the case. And we'll see where this is leading.

seems clear that we are talking about a case that has opened a hatch on the sewers of the State. There seems to be a video of Pheasant bar, the result of monitoring the operation before June 2006 would have been handled, from appearing the mysterious interlocutor mobile phone carrier.

An issue of this importance seems evident that it was known (if not driven) from the dome of the Ministry of Interior. Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba knew (and tacitly or explicitly approved it), and was actively involved Secretary of State for Security Antonio Camacho, apart from police officers and suspects.

insist that nobody is above the law, but you can not reproach the digger to stain the hands of m. ..... If you continue doing the research on this issue, the best intervention may prove (or mere knowledge) of these people in the filtration Elosua. But that, what will?.

Well, it seems clear that the enemies of the Government, will serve to tarnish the image of the man who now seems Zapatero's right hand, or even his possible successor. But trying to be fair, only show that, indeed, as we all know but ignore the details, the state has sewers, and all sewage must have a well-digger. That any conversation with criminals, in order to avoid greater evils, is set in the dark and is based on the exchange of favors.

Personally, I think at this point would be better to leave it alone. You have seen some seams down the drain, but nothing I can not live with those who do not have as main objective to discredit Rubalcaba.

in all of television police series, we've got tired of seeing the offender recently arrested trying to negotiate an exchange of favors. If I give you evidence against someone more important than me, you forget about me, is there treatment? . And then we were shocked that this same happens in real life underground in our country. Nice irony.

In the final scene Few Good Men, a Jack Nicholson, histrionic, and in its best moments, is depressed by the fiscal young Tom Cruise (and his assistant Demi Moore). As commander of a military base in enemy territory (Guantanamo), proclaimed to the four winds during the trial that I work twenty-four hours a day so that you can sleep quiet . In the end, it remains only to acknowledge, loudly, that course I ordered a Code Red, the son . Then take him detained as alleged.

No is above the law but to try to illuminate the sewers like a contradiction. While the sewer has no laws or rules, it does have rules, based on mutual trust and exchange favors. If you want to shed light on this would be sufficient for Congress did not authorize funds Reserved. Of course, if so, how long would the state machinery in jam?.

I think it is good to accept, without more, the lesser evil .
