Brazilian state-controlled Petrobras on Friday announced the discovery of a new crude deposit in the Amazon region, where the energy company already is developing large natural gas reserves.Air Jordan 2010 The new onshore find was confirmed after an extended well test near the Amazon town of Tefe, some 630 kilometers (390 miles) from Manaus, the largest city in Brazil's Amazon region. New Jordan Shoes The Igarape Chibata exploratory well was drilled to a depth of 3,485 kilometers (2,165 miles) in the Solimoes Basin, within a block in which Petrobras has full exploration and production rights, the company said in a statement. The deposit is located 32 kilometers (20 miles) from the Urucu oil province, where Petrobras is developing three natural gas deposits that supply Manaus and will feed a thermoelectric plant inaugurated in that region Friday by President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.Air Jordan 4 According to Petrobras, whose shares are traded on the Sao Paulo, New York, Madrid and Buenos Aires stock exchanges even though the company is controlled by the Brazilian government, the newly discovered crude is very high-quality, light oil with an American Petroleum Institute gravity of 46 degrees. Even though the exploratory well's 2,500-barrel-per-day capacity is small compared with other areas under development by Petrobras, the company said the result of the well test was "excellent considering that type of basin in Brazil." The company added in its statement that it will conduct more seismic studies and test drilling to determine the size of the Amazon deposit, assess its commercial viability and quantify the reserves. By comparison, each well in the Tupi concession, one of many newly discovered fields in the massive pre-salt area off Brazil's coast, has the capacity to produce 30,000 barrels per day. Brazilian authorities are hopeful that development of the pre-salt reserves - so-named because they are located deep below the ocean floor under a layer of salt up to 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) thick - will quintuple the country's current proven reserves of 14 billion barrels and transform the South American nation into a major oil power. cheap jordans

A dog scavenges for food; the family pet now a stray. An old lady, who refuses to leave her home, rearranges the shattered bricks as she tries to put her life back together.Air Jordan Fusion Everywhere there is destruction on South Korea's tiny Yeonpyeong Island. Houses are incinerated, treasured possessions now charred remains. It is the small things that reveal the most. The books tattered and burned. A family piano: now a blackened shell, and a kitchen with charred pots and pans and a child's broken cup. Everywhere there is ash and the strong smell of smoke. Shattered glass covers the roads and burnt tiles crunch under feet. Shell craters are visible and the walls are pockmarked with shrapnel. North Korea rained shells on the island Tuesday and South Korea returned fire.Air Jordan 9 For about an hour a 57-year-old armistice was broken and a war that has never really ended ignited again. A tiny fishing village was suddenly and violently at the center of a flashpoint that some fear could tip the Korean peninsula into all out war. CNN returned with South Korea's coast guard for an up-close look at the battles aftermath. The once bustling little community is now a ghost town. Hundreds of people have fled. Those who have stayed told us of the moment of terror. "I was up near the lighthouse when my daughter called and said some kind of war had broken out,' one woman said.

What am I going to do if I leave? People have got to come back," a man tells me. But people won't be back. Some of those who have fled say they no longer feel safe. They tell me they are used to conflict but not like this. Normally it is military-to-military. The difference is now civilians have been caught in the crossfire.Air Jordan Q4

Thousands of officers have been sweeping poor neighborhoods, sparking intense gunbattles. It's not clear if the dead are drug traffickers or bystanders. WASHINGTON (AP) — Two 45-pound turkeys have been spared the fate that is befalling millions of birds tomorrow. President Barack Obama performed the annual rite of presidents by pardoning the birds. Apple and Cider will spend the rest of their days at Mount Vernon, Va., the home of George Washington. The violence is exposing the dark side of a city famous for its annual carnival celebrations. While such outbreaks of violence aren't new in Rio—in August an armed group took over one of the city's luxury hotels—preparations for the Olympics and World Cup have put new urgency on efforts to rein in crime. Rio's favelas are often close to the city's wealthier neighborhoods, but exist in a world apart from the version of the city most tourists know. Though crimes like muggings and robberies are a big problem throughout the city, many of the murders and other crimes directly related to gangs and their control of the city's drugs trade are mostly confined to the slums. In October, gang members shot down a police helicopter as it hovered over one of the city's shantytowns. New Jordan Shoes

Black Friday, the traditional kickoff to the holiday shopping season, has lost a bit of its luster as hungry retailers try to stretch the one-day shopping bacchanal on the day after Thanksgiving into a weeklong bonanza. Big chains including Sears and Toys R Us have joined Wal-Mart and Kmart in offering Thanksgiving Day hours. Others have already begun hawking massive discounts and pushing online deals. And to keep the party going past Friday, many retailers will offer fresh discounts Saturday and Sunday.cheap jordans There's a lot riding on the outcome. Retailers hope an improving economy will bring the biggest holiday receipts in four years — and if they succeed, it could help set off a chain of events that could accelerate the country's slow recovery, said economist Esmael Adibi of Chapman University. "If the retail sector is healthy, that will eventually lead down the road to expansions, and expansions lead to hiring," he said. "Additional hiring generates more income and then that income in turn will be spent. It's a multiplier effect." Wall Street was feeling optimistic about the retail industry as it headed into the all-important Thanksgiving weekend. Continuing a recent run-up, investors pushed an index of 90 retail stocks to the highest level in more than three years Wednesday, with Guess shares gaining 11% and shares of Amazon.com, Tiffany & Co. and Big 5 each rising more than 5%. Consumer spending at the nation's retailers, although not robust, has been generally healthy all year. So economists are predicting the best holiday season since 2006 (before the recession) and are estimating a year-over-year retail sales increase of 2.3% to 3.5%. Despite the earlier-than-ever holiday deals this year, habitual Black Friday shoppers say they'll still be out in force for the annual shopping extravaganza.air jordan shoes Many have been gearing up for days, drafting store layout maps and lists of things to buy, and plan to wake up in the middle of the night — or not sleep at all — so they can be the first to hit the malls. Last year 79 million Americans shopped on Black Friday, which is said to be so named because it was historically the day when huge revenue would push retailers into the black. "People cutting in line, people trying to start fights, people pushing in line as they start going inside — I don't know, I like it," said Sam Sanders, 33, of Ontario, who has shopped on Black Friday for the last eight years. "Rushing in to get the product before it sells out — that's like the best part." With shoppers indicating that they're willing to spend again, albeit cautiously, retailers have added more holiday deals and spread the usual 24-hour Black Friday discounts over several days, hoping to one-up rivals and seize market share. "It's our most intense promotional calendar yet. We've really gone on the offensive this year," said Mike Boylson, chief marketing officer at JCPenney, which will have more than 300 Black Friday "door-buster" specials and will offer online-only deals Thanksgiving Day. "We know there's a lot of very hungry competitors that are going to do just about anything to get business." For the first time, Toys R Us stores will open at 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving, with 25% more door-busters than last year, and Sears will be open Thanksgiving Day. air jordan 2010 To kick off Black Friday, most Wal-Mart stores will host midnight events, handing out treats such as breakfast bars and chocolate to help keep overnight shoppers energized; the discounter will have a fresh batch of deals Saturday. Target will open at 4 a.m., an hour earlier than last year, and is offering more door-buster deals than ever before; Kohl's is touting its earliest-ever opening, at 3 a.m. Locally, Citadel Outlets will again be open at 10 p.m. on Thanksgiving. Two hours later, shopping centers including the Shops at Montebello and Lakewood Center will open for midnight-madness events, their earliest-ever openings. At Ontario Mills, which also opens at midnight, the mall will use social networking for the first time on Black Friday to hype last-minute deals. Retailers said the motivation for throwing their doors open earlier and rolling out more deals was the notion that although many Americans are no longer pinching pennies, they're still price-conscious and looking for bargains. Lower-income Americans, especially, are still struggling. "Yes we're being aggressive this year, much more so than last year," said Steve Nave, senior vice president and general manager of Walmart.com. "I think everyone is cautiously optimistic that things are turning around in the economy, but the Wal-Mart customer is still especially strapped right now." Every year Delene Mitchell, 42, and her friends hit the stores on Black Friday right after finishing the last of their pumpkin pie. "We just sit up, drink some wine and go shopping," she said of her Thanksgiving ritual. "We don't go to bed." air jordans

Acting to secure a $114 billion international bailout, the Irish government announced plans on Wednesday for steep tax increases and sharp cutbacks in its social welfare state. Air Jordan 11 The austerity measures, which would slash public spending by $20 billion over four years, would help pay for a severe banking crisis that has depleted the country’s finances and led to a dramatic weakening in the government that is likely to see Prime Minister Brian Cowen ousted from office early next year. A crucial, separate 2011 budget is to come to a vote on Dec. 7. A throng of protesters shouted outside the Finance Ministry as Mr. Cowen and Finance Minister Brian Lenihan unveiled details of how the government planned to slash the deficit to 3 percent of domestic gross product in 2014, from 32 percent. Details of the plan were released as the government prepared to effectively nationalize two troubled banks that have bled the state of money, and as Standard & Poor’s lowered Ireland’s credit rating, citing concerns about the how much the government was borrowing and about the vast amounts needed to shore up the country’s banking system. In a speech Wednesday afternoon aimed at bolstering national morale, Mr. Cowen urged Ireland to “pull together as a people to confront this challenge, and do so in a united way.” He said the four-year plan would raise money mainly by taxing those who earned more, while going easier on those who had less. But he also warned that the “size of the crisis means no one can be sheltered.” Air Jordan 4 Mr. Cowen refused to answer questions about when he might step aside, an outcome that has gained momentum as opposition politicians press for his removal and the electorate blames his government for wrecking Ireland’s economy. The prospect of political chaos in Ireland, and fears that a splintered government might roll back deficit-cutting measures amid public ire, had worried European officials and financial markets. The events in Ireland have led investors to turn their attention to the troubled economies of Spain and, in particular, Portugal. On Wednesday, Portuguese workers staged a huge strike to protest government austerity measures designed to get the nation’s finances under control. In Ireland, trade unions were also warning of “civil unrest” and planned protests in Dublin on Saturday. The International Monetary Fund and Ireland’s partners in the European Union insisted on an austerity budget as a condition for the $114 billion bailout, money that Ireland badly needs after it intervened to rescue its banks. During the economic boom years before 2008, Irish banks borrowed cheaply and pumped out loans on houses and construction projects, helping to fuel an American-style housing bubble that went bust, ravaging their balance sheets. The austerity plan calls for cuts of nearly 15 percent in Ireland’s social welfare budget, one of Europe’s most generous, saving $4 billion a year. Some 24,750 public jobs — a huge number in a country of about 4 million people — would be eliminated, cutting state payrolls down to about what they were in 2005 and saving about $1.6 billion a year. Child benefits and other social welfare payments would be reduced, and the nation’s minimum wage, now 8.65 euros, or $11.59, an hour, would be cut by 1 euro, or about $1.34, in the hope of promoting job creation. Air Jordan 9 Mr. Cowen said the sagging economy could recover only if Ireland proved it was cleaning up its act. “Without putting public finances on a sustainable basis, we can’t have confidence from investors to create jobs in Ireland,” he said. He predicted that the deficit reduction plan would help lower unemployment to less than 10 percent, from 13.4 percent currently, within four years. While voters were angry about the crisis, there was also an acknowledgment that the boom years fueled too many excesses, which must now be reined in. “In a bubble, things get distorted, and after it collapses you need to rebalance the economy,” said Philip R. Lane, a professor of international macroeconomics at Trinity College. “So this plan is not really radically shifting the nature of the welfare state, it’s just returning it to what it was before the crisis.” Under the measures, Ireland’s tax net would be widened to take in some low-income workers who currently pay no tax, and a series of new taxes would be imposed on certain residential properties, as well as on 120,000 people who receive public sector pensions. The government also plans to cut spending on health care by over $1.9 billion through a series of measures that are likely to push up the cost of private health insurance. Capital spending on education will rise, but education programs will nonetheless take a hit starting next year, as more than $66.7 million is cut from the four-year budget. Classroom sizes may also grow if educators cannot find ways to reduce teacher payrolls. Thousands of young Irish, along with people who have been shut out of the job market, are swelling the ranks of Ireland’s university students as they ride out a difficult economy. Still, the austerity plan does not touch Ireland’s low corporate tax rate of 12.5 percent, which has helped to lure companies like Microsoft, Intel and Pfizer to set up operations in the country. Air Jordan 8 Though the country’s political parties are bitterly divided over many aspects of economic policy, they all agree that the low corporate tax rate is one of the few pillars that can allow Ireland to return to economic health. Multinational companies employ about one out of seven working people in Ireland, and their businesses are stoking export growth, even as the latest austerity program is expected to depress consumer demand and touch off a wave of retrenchment and job losses. The government is expected within days to take over effective control of the two largest banks in the country, Allied Irish Banks and the Bank of Ireland, following plunges in their share prices. Officials from the European Union and the monetary fund have been in Dublin since last week, talking with the government about the financial crisis. They will spend the next several days poring over the details of the budget plan. Before moving on to the Finance Ministry, protesters gathered outside the hotel rooms where I.M.F. officials have been staying, waving signs that urged the Irish to “fight for every job, resist every cut.” The ministry did not announce where the budget would be unveiled until nearly noon on Wednesday, citing security concerns and the likelihood that crowds of protesters could grow throughout the day.

But after becoming chairman in 2006, Mr. Bernanke largely put the inflation-targeting debate on hold, partly out of political considerations. The Fed is required by law to keep prices stable and to maximize employment. Some economists are concerned that by announcing an inflation target, the Fed would feel compelled to stick to it even at the cost of neglecting employment. Air Jordan 9 Mr. Bernanke has justified the Fed’s Nov. 3 decision to buy more bonds by pointing out that inflation is far lower than the implicit goal of just under 2 percent, while unemployment is, at nearly 10 percent, too high. Both sides of the Fed’s mandate called for it to act to spur growth, he said. Moreover, the Fed began publishing quarterly forecasts in 2007 in which officials offered their long-run projections for inflation. Based on those projections, most economists assume the Fed has an unofficial target for inflation of roughly 2 percent or under, and Mr. Bernanke confirmed that impression in an Oct. 15 speech. Even so, the inflation-targeting debate is not just an academic matter. A leading House Republican called last week for Congress to narrow the Fed’s mandate to focus only on fighting inflation, not on managing employment. In addition, several Fed officials, notably Charles L. Evans, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, have called for a variation of inflation targeting called price-level targeting. The idea is to let inflation run a bit higher in the future to make up for inflation being too low today, and have the Fed aim for a long-term average. Inflation targeting, in contrast, would not take account of past inflation but just focus on current inflation in setting goals for monetary policy. Air Jordan 4 Along with inflation and price-level targeting, the committee also discussed on Oct. 15 whether the Fed might want to aim at an interest rate for a particular term security, like the benchmark 10-year Treasury note. But the committee appears to have set aside that idea because of “the risk that the Federal Reserve might find itself buying undesirably large amounts of the relevant security in order to keep its yield close to the target level.” In some ways, the October meeting was a prelude for the November meeting, which ended with a 10-1 vote for the $600 billion program but also reflected significant skepticism within the committee. According to the minutes, most participants in the meeting though the asset purchases would help push down long-term interest rates and bolster the prices of stocks and other assets, while “some observed that it could also lead to a reduction in the foreign exchange value of the dollar.” Most participants expected that those changes would “help promote a somewhat stronger recovery in output and employment while helping return inflation, over time, to levels consistent with the committee’s mandate. But there were substantial doubts, as well. Some participants thought the action “would have only a limited effect on the pace of the recovery.” They argued that the slow recovery did not respond to additional monetary stimulus and “that additional action would be warranted only if the outlook worsened and the odds of deflation increased materially.” Air Jordan 3 In addition, some skeptics said they feared the action would “put unwanted downward pressure on the dollar’s value in foreign exchange markets,” while others raised concerns that expanding the Fed’s balance sheet “could cause an undesirably large increase in inflation.” The minutes showed a consensus on the Fed that “progress toward reducing unemployment was disappointing,” but confirmed a disagreement on whether some of the increase in unemployment might be a result of structural changes in the economy, and impervious to attempts by the Fed to stimulate economic demand. For now, the mainstream view is that the current unemployment is “well above levels that could be explained by structural factors alone,” according to the minutes. Market-watchers said the minutes did not shed much light on what might cause the Fed to change its stated goal of buying $75 billion in Treasury securities a month through June, along with using about $35 billion a month in proceeds from its portfolio of mortgage-backed securities to buy additional government debt. Under the Fed’s new projections, inflation and unemployment would not return to their normal ranges until 2015 or 2016, Ted Wieseman, an economist at Morgan Stanley, wrote in a note to investors. The minutes, he wrote, suggest that an extension of quantitative easing beyond June “remains significantly more likely than an early curtailment (as long as the Fed retains its independence) even if the recent improved tone of the economic data continues.” Air Jordan 1

Denny Hamlin's race began with a slide through the grass and ended in disappointment. There was a moment when it looked as if Kevin Harvick had a shot at winning the race — and maybe even the championship — but his hopes were snuffed out by a NASCAR penalty.Air Jordan Q4 Air Jordan 9 And Jimmie Johnson was ready to pounce on his two championship rivals' mistakes, finishing second in Sunday's season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway to win his fifth straight NASCAR Sprint Cup series title. While waiting for their postrace news conference to begin, Harvick watched Johnson celebrate on a nearby television. Hamlin stared off into space. "You know, it's so many turning points in this Chase where it can go one way or the other or in anybody's favor," Hamlin said. "Just think about all of the situations you wish you could go back and change." Instead, nothing has changed: Johnson remains NASCAR's champion, and the No. 48 team its dominant force. Air Jordan 2010 Air Yeezy "Those guys put up a great fight, and when it's that close, it's got to sting," Johnson said. "I respect those guys." Harvick recovered from a pit road speeding penalty to finish third, but that wasn't enough. Hamlin finished 14th after making contact with Greg Biffle on lap 24 and sliding through the grass, and it wasn't enough to preserve the 15-point championship lead he held going into the weekend. "We just tried to patch it and work on it the best we could but it just wasn't the car that it was at the beginning," Hamlin said. "It's just part of racing." Hamlin spent this week fending off some good-natured, but pointed, verbal jabs from Johnson and Harvick — and didn't seem to enjoy it. Still, he insisted he wasn't nervous until just before the race started. Then came the early accident with Biffle, which damaged the front-end bodywork and sapped some speed from what had been a fast race car. "It looks like I was on the inside of him and somebody went three wide on him right at the last minute, and he came down and got into our right front," Hamlin said. "Nobody's fault, at all." Meanwhile, Harvick's pit crew appeared to give him the race lead — and a leg up in the championship — on a late round of pit stops. But NASCAR penalized him for entering pit road too fast. Harvick fumed over his in-car radio and didn't back down when asked about the penalty after the race, questioning the integrity of NASCAR's pit road speed monitoring system.Air Jordan 4 New Jordan Shoes "I don't think that penalty will ever settle in my stomach," Harvick said. "When you read me off of my pit road times of 49.6, 49.4 50.8 and then 49.6, and there's only a handful of (officials) that get to see them, I won't ever settle for that." NASCAR wasn't the only target of Harvick's ire after the race. Harvick collided with Kyle Busch in the late stages of the race, sending Busch's car into the wall on the frontstretch. Busch drove back onto the track but his car caught on fire, and he had to stop and get out. "Just a guy that doesn't have his head on straight, apparently," Busch said. Harvick wasn't happy with the way Busch, a teammate of Hamlin's at Joe Gibbs Racing, was treating him on the track. "He just raced me like a clown all day." Harvick said. "Three wide, on the back bumper, running into me. And I just had enough." Hamlin snapped back at Harvick. "Sounds like (how) your teammates raced me all day," Hamlin said. Harvick got the last word. "I just parked yours," Harvick said. air jordan shoes cheap jordans

In Zimbabwe, a Catholic priest interviewed by the Associated Press had no doubt about the import. "Now the message has come out that [men and women] can go ahead and do safe sex, it's much better for everyone," said Father Peter Makome.Air Jordan Q4 Air Jordan 9 But, as the Vatican noted in a longer, Italian version of its statement, the pope's remarks were made in a "colloquial and not magisterial" form. In other words, they represented his private opinions rather than official teaching. Writing for the Catholic World Report website, US academic Janet Smith, argued: "The Holy Father is simply observing that for some homosexual prostitutes the use of a condom may indicate an awakening of a moral sense." Spanish theologist Juan José Tamayo agreed. "I don't detect any change in the words of the pope," he told the Cadena SER radio network. "They ratify traditional doctrine, opposed to the use of condoms, and even confirm the irresponsible remarks he made in Africa about Aids." Air Jordan 2010 Air Yeezy In 2009, Benedict prompted international uproar when he told journalists condoms should not be used because they could increase the spread of Aids. In the book, he stands by his remark, but in more nuanced terms. He argues "condoms alone do not resolve the question itself. More needs to happen." And in the key passage, he says: "There may be a basis in the case of some individuals, as perhaps when a male prostitute uses a condom, where this can be a first step in the direction of a moralisation, a first assumption of responsibility, on the way toward recovering an awareness that not everything is allowed and that one cannot do whatever one wants. But it is not really the way to deal with the evil of HIV infection. That can really lie only in a humanisation of sexuality." Asked by the interviewer if the Catholic church was not opposed in principle to the use of condoms, the pope replied: "She of course does not regard it as a real or moral solution, but, in this or that case, there can be nonetheless, in the intention of reducing the risk of infection, a first step in a movement towards a different way, a more human way, of living sexuality.
