Who decides what our children are eating?
To a large degree, it is the Federal Government. Congress and the Department of Agriculture approve what foods can (and can't) be served to over 30 million American school children who get daily meals from the National School Lunch Program.
The government gets a ton of pressure from a food and beverage industry frantic to keep kids hooked on a diet of sodas, snacks and hot dogs. The competition, for a piece of this $10 billion market, is particularly fierce right now because this year, the School Lunch Program is being reviewed and revised.
Despite the enormous nutritional and financial stakes at play, ANP was the only media to cover a recent panel set up to discuss the school menu. While nutritionists outnumbered the press, corporate lobbyists outnumbered everyone.
Pfizer Inc. hopes to close its $68 billion deal to buy Wyeth by the end of 2009. To get there it will have to pass muster with antitrust regulators and credit agencies. Then the real work of integration begins. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Robbert van Batenburg, head of equity research for Louis Capital Markets, tells Suzanne Stevens that the stakes for both companies are high. But with its patent on the blockbuster Lipitor set to expire in 2010 and a limited pipeline to offset the loss, the risks of the deal collapsing would be particularly damaging for Pfizer.

We are looking at how the Qurâan validates the Bible. BTW, the Bible does not need the Qurâan for validation because there are many, many validations of facts and points outside the Qurâan.
The Bible consists of Hebrew and Greek scriptures. The Hebrew is kept, supported and honored by Jews and Christians. The Greek scriptures are kept, preserved and honored by Christians.
Pickthal 10:94 And if thou (Muhammad) art in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto thee, then question those who read the Scripture (that was) before thee. Verily the Truth from thy Lord hath come unto thee. So be not thou of the waverers.

DIRECTOR'S CUT Summary: Potter arrives home to find that Kenobi has started a high-stakes Dungeons and Dragons game in the ... living room. Kenobi invites Potter to join in the role playing game. He accepts, thinking it will be a fun way to get away from his ‘dull and boring’ life. How could he ever be so wrong? (We Promise not to take 6 months to make the next one). (Not a fan film about smugglers and pirates, but it is the next best thing.)
This social etiquette film discusses how honesty can become difficult in situations where the stakes are high. One of the top high school basketball players at his school, Bob, is seen leaving the locker room, and shortly thereafter another teammateâs money has been stolen. Was Bob stealing? Are all the witnesses telling the truth? The highschoolers in this film must figure out for themselves where the answers lie. The film features strong acting for its genre, and the story becomes interesting: when one of the witnesses, a girl whoâs dating the number two player on the basketball team, confesses that she wants Bob to fail so her boyfriend can be the top player. As everyone works towards finding the truth, typical American family values are investigated as well as social conformity in the 1950's. Without question, the truth hurts, but the cost of dishonesty is greater. This educational video asks people to discover the difference between an honest mistake and being dishonest.
