Arlington,Texas News Flash City will announce the integration of Wi-Fi covering 90% of city.FREE!Whatcha think The contract requires 90% coverage in the city limits, with service at all municipal buildings, parks, lakes, and schools. The dervice is intended to allow free internet access to as many Arlington residents as possible with focus on students, low income and those that cannot afford the services of commercial ISP's. The official announcement will drown out the bragging rights of the city of Dallas which recently rolled out its downtown Wi-Fi service. I feel this is very exciting and will further serve to "put Arlington on the map". What do you think?

Why do Latinos have to do all the children raising in Texas? Latinos are just 40% of the state of Texas, but over 70% of everyone in this state under 18 is Mexican. PASADENA, Texas — Meet the face of the new Texas: Jose Villagran, 39, first-generation Mexican American, four kids, suburbanite. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/census/2011-02-17-texas-census_N.htm Along with thousands of others like him, Villagran was born in Houston to Mexican parents and still works in the city, but he moved his family to this safer, cheaper suburb 14 miles south of Houston. Census data released Thursday show a robust statewide population spurt the past decade — adding more than 4.2 million residents, or 20.6% — attributed primarily to Hispanics such as Villagran, minorities born in urban centers but quickly spreading to suburbs and rural areas across the state. TEXAS: County, city population and change CENSUS NUMBERS: Interactive map shows your state, county, locality "There are more Mexicans here than ever before," Villagran, a buyer for a scrap metal company, says of Pasadena. "We've kind of taken over." And then some. Overall, Texas' population grew to more than 25 million, awarding the nation's second most populous state four more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Hispanics accounted for 65% of the state's growth since 2000, while non-Hispanic whites experienced the smallest increase of any group, just 4.2%. The black population grew by 22%. Census numbers where you live Click here for an interactive map with data representing where you live. "We're seeing the development of two populations groups in Texas: aging Anglos and young minorities," says Steve Murdock, a former Census Bureau director and now a Rice University sociology professor. "We're seeing Hispanic growth not just deepen but become pervasive throughout the state." A healthy state economy during the recent recession and Mexican nationals fleeing drug cartel violence in Mexico also contributed to Texas' population boom, he says. Border towns saw sharp increases: Brownsville's population rose 25% and Laredo's by 33%. But natural Latino population increases — more Latinos born in the state than dying — were the main engine, he says. For the first time in recent history, Texas is less than half non-Hispanic white, dipping to 45%, the data shows. Hispanics make up about 38% of the total population. The state's burgeoning Hispanic population mirrors what's happening across the USA, Murdock says. "The Texas of today is the U.S. of tomorrow," he says. Another telling statistic: Texas added nearly 1 million children under 18 — 95% of them Hispanic, says William Frey, a demographer for the Brookings Institution. "That's the future of the state," he says. "It's a diverse one." The increased Hispanic numbers are expected to spark heated debate in the months ahead over how to redraw districts to accommodate the four new congressional seats and include more minority voters, says Ross Ramsey, managing editor of the Texas Tribune, an online political site. "That's the beginning of a political dogfight," he says. Texas' population surge came in four main areas: Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston-Galveston, San Antonio-Austin and the Rio Grande Valley, all areas with high numbers of Latinos. Those four areas account for 84% of the statewide gain. Houston remains Texas' largest city with 2.1 million residents. San Antonio moved up during the decade to the second slot with 1.3 million, trailed by Dallas with 1.2 million, the data show. In the Houston area, Latinos no longer are confined to the East End neighborhood, their historical enclave, says Deacon Joe Rubio, an administrator for Catholic Charities Houston. Historically white suburbs such as Katy, Dickinson and Pasadena are swelling with Latinos, he says. In Harris County, where Houston is located, the Latino population grew nearly 50% to 1.7 million and Asian Texans grew by 44% to 250,000, while the number of whites dropped from 1.4 million to 1.35 million — a 6% decline. "There is a significant spread from traditional barrios or neighborhoods to suburban areas and other areas where you wouldn't find them before," Rubio says. Once home to the Ku Klux Klan and the setting for the 1980 hit movie Urban Cowboy, Pasadena today is dotted with carnicerias (meat markets), washaterias (laundromats) and taquerias. The former Elks Lodge is now the El Palacio Real, hosti

What link does Liverpool FC have with The City of Liverpool? Why does Liverpool football fans get so excited or upset when Liverpool win or lose, Today’s Liverpool FC has no link with the city except in name and location only. The owner had to look on a map to see where Liverpool was before he bought it; at first he thought it was a baseball team in Texas. The manager can’t even spell Liverpool, and the players can’t say Liverpool, I don’t even think the ground man is from there, Are you fans not just a little sad that the pride you show or your team is not even Liverpudlian .

Where can I do fireworks in Houston, Texas?

Why is the weather so hot in Laredo Texas? I like to look at the big temperature ranges in the US. But one that always catches my eye this time of the year is Laredo, Texas. It is not abnormal to have a temperature of 100 degrees and even in February. In April, they had a high of 108. This seems to happen year after year, and they remain the warmest city in Texas year round. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Webb_County_Laredo.svg There is the map so you can get a general idea where Laredo is. Brownsville is a the lower tip of Texas, only 220 miles away, and they are cooler by far than Laredo, being close to the gulf helps though, but they can get 100 here and there too oddly enough. Why is it though, during even winter months, it can get so hot, but the rest of Texas generally stays normal? Even El Paso, a desert city, doesn't get this hot this time of the year...but odd enough, it is still very cold at night due to South Texas standards?

How built the thousands of miles of unfinshed neighborhoods by Horizon City, TX? Why? Why are they abandoned? When flying over the area east of El Paso around Horizon City, TX while in route to Tucson and even on Googlearth, one can see thousands of miles of roads, cal-de-sacs, neighborhoods, streets, parkways and grided streets buldozed into at least 100,000 arces of former ranch and dry scrub land for what appears to be housing and real-estate development. It looks like it someone was planning a mega development of hundreds of thousands of houses, neighborhoods, subdivisions and I'm sure retail, malls and office parks too. But it appears it was all abandoned, deserted and forgotten after the land was surveyed, mapped, graded, with the highways and by-ways were sliced across the landscape. My question is more then one actually. Who built this mega gigantic development? When? Why? And why was it abandoned? Did it happen during the west Texas real-estate boom? Thank you for your assitance.

What do you think the chances are that? The Oil spill coming from the gulf will go toward or reach Panama City. Right now their saying Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi will get it.

Should I go see my family in Louisiana this summer, or should I stay here in Texas because I think it's safer? Like they do every year, Mom is planning a trip to Morgan City, LA this July, and my teen sister is hoping it'll last all month. I, on the other hand, am dreading it for many reasons, and among them is the fact that we're in hurricane season and Morgan City is at/below sea level according to this Google Earth map. You see, I am currently in the southeast Houston area, and the elevation of this house is 31 feet, according to this. Where Dad lives, it's 35 feet, and he's even further west of Galveston Bay. (Morgan City's one advantage over where we live is that it's further inland due to the inability to build on the coast.) I know this all sounds paranoid, since we've never had hurricane problems while in Morgan City, but should I worry that I am in danger because of the low elevation? Should I go with my mom and sister, or should I stay with Dad here in Texas? We didn't leave for Rita in 05 (lost power for a day but not much else), so is it safer in Houston than it is over there?

Do you know about the inhuman and unhygienic conditions at Willacy detention center , Raymondville, Texas? This disgusting concentration camp is a blot on the landscape, a blight upon the reputation of decent Americans and a monument to its instigator, George Wa*ker Bush. If more decent people in the USA knew how this place was run they would be protesting outside it with banners. From the "Washington Post" RAYMONDVILLE, Tex. -- Ringed by barbed wire, a futuristic tent city rises from the Rio Grande Valley in the remote southern tip of Texas, the largest camp in a federal detention system rapidly gearing up to keep pace with Washington's increasing demand for stronger enforcement of immigration laws. About 2,000 illegal immigrants, part of a record 26,500 held across the United States by federal authorities, will call the 10 giant tents home for weeks, months and perhaps years before they are removed from the United States and sent back to their home countries. About 2,000 illegal immigrants are being held in this detention facility in South Texas, awaiting deportation to their home countries. Some may wait months or years.

DiggGoogle del.icio.usYahoo! RedditFacebook The $65 million tent city, built hastily last summer between a federal prison and a county jail, marks both the success and the limits of the government's new policy of holding captured non-Mexicans until they are sent home. Previously, most such detainees were released into the United States before hearings, and a majority simply disappeared. The new policy has led to a dramatic decline in border crossings by non-Mexicans, according to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. But civil liberties and immigration law groups allege that out of sight, the system is bursting at the seams. In the Texas facility, they say, illegal immigrants are confined 23 hours a day in windowless tents made of a Kevlar-like material, often with insufficient food, clothing, medical care and access to telephones. Many are transferred from the East Coast, 1,500 miles from relatives and lawyers, virtually cutting off access to counsel. "I call it 'Ritmo' -- like Gitmo, but it's in Raymondville," said Jodi Goodwin, an immigration lawyer from nearby Harlingen. An inspector general's report last month on a sampling of five U.S. immigration detention facilities found inhumane and unsafe conditions, including inadequate health care, the presence of vermin, limited access to clean underwear and undercooked poultry. Although ICE standards require that immigrants have access to phones and pro bono law offices, investigators found phones missing, not working or connected to non-working numbers. With roughly 1.6 million illegal immigrants in some stage of immigration proceedings, ICE holds more inmates a night than Clarion hotels have guests, operates nearly as many vehicles as Greyhound has buses and flies more people each day than do many small U.S. airlines. Gary Mead, assistant director of ICE detention and removal operations, said the agency is proud of its record, calling Raymondville "a modern, clean facility" that meets federal standards -- "which we believe are among the highest you'll find anywhere." Mead added: "We think the conditions of confinement there are both humane and consistent with all the rights they should be entitled to." Despite its spartan conditions, the facility in Willacy County, 260 miles south of Austin, is a key to President Bush's drive to create a channel for temporary foreign workers and a path toward legalization for as many as 12 million illegal immigrants living in the United States. To do so, the government must convince skeptics that it can credibly enforce laws aimed at illegal immigrants and their employers, and can hold and deport those caught by the U.S. Border Patrol. At the same time, the administration and its allies argue that even additional detention beds will be overwhelmed without new channels for legal immigration. Accordingly, the United States has embarked on a huge prison building and contracting campaign, increasing the number of illegal immigrants detained from 19,718 a day in 2005 to about 26,500 now, and a projected 32,000 this summer.

do you agree with the following? can i understand that Texas is georgraphically west, and culturally south? ''If you interpret the map in literal terms, then Texans might have a point. Though even then, it is a bit of a stretch. When it comes to the state's position in the continental United States, a larger part of Texas is located west of the geographical center (Lebanon, Kansas). But most of the major cities - Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Galveston - are actually east of this line. And San Antonio only slightly skews westward. Note also that the entire state of Texas is southern under this definition. Culturally, Texas is the "Deep South" in every way that counts. It is mostly Evangelical Christian. It votes Republican every time. Most of the population owns firearms. The local cuisine is similar to the rest of the southern states. And as part of the old Confederacy, Texas has a shared history with most of those states as well. Using this criteria, you could say it is even more southern than, say, Northern Virginia or Miami-Dade in Florida.''

Border Crossing - Where is Columbia Solidarity International Bridge? My wife and I will be setting out on December 17 from St. Louis, MO to Monterrey, Mexico. We want to use the Columbia Border Crossing and take the Columbia-Solidarity International Bridge, but for the life of me, I cannot find the Border Crossing or the International Bridge on MapQuest! We will be heading down 35 toward Laredo. Someone posted a map on Wikipedia of the crossing, but when I compared the map to MapQuest some really strange things began to happen. For example, according to the map, Loop 20 west of 35 turns into exactly that, a loop that goes nowhere. But according to the map, it continues south and becomes Mexico 2. So, I purchased the 2010 "Guia Rojo Por las Carreteras de Mexico" and their maps indicate that I should head to a city called Delores in Texas, and that the bridge is right there. But again when I looked on Mapquest for Dolores, I could not find any border crossing or bridge. Please, the last thing I want is to get lost in the dangerous border areas. So, if you know how to get to the International Bridge from 35, please respond. Thanks.

NAFTA superhighway? What is the purpose of this? Highway 407 toll-road helps provide proof that U.S. Ambassador is misleading Canadians on fascistic NAFTA superhighway agenda by Paul Chen U.S. Ambassador to Canada David Wilkins. The Highway 407 toll-road, helps provide proof that U.S. Ambassador to Canada, David H. Wilkins, is misleading Canadians on the construction of a North American Free Trade (NAFTA) Superhighway, to enable the creation of a fascistic North American Union. On 8 December 2004, the Canoe Network that is associated with the Sun Newspaper Chain, in Christina Blizzard's article "Hwy 407: Que Pasa?", reported that Cintra, witch is part of a Spanish Consortium, owns the 407 toll-road. It had been a public mystery, why would a company all the way from Spain, spend the time to own and construct a toll-road. Even more of a mystery to me, had been, why would government in Canada award a foreign Spanish bid over a Canadian company? The Coalition to Block the North American Union revealed that the same Cintra company is behind the Trans-Texas Toll-Road Corridor. Map shows apparent intent to eventually link the Spanish built 407 toll-road, to the Trans-Texas corridor, owned by the same Spanish consortium. Maps accredited to the North American Forum on Integration (NAFI), which is a non-profit organization based in Montreal, clearly reveals an apparent intention to link Cintra's Trans-Texas Corridor to the Hwy 407 Toll-Road, which clearly appears to be being built toward Ottawa, within a vast integrated continental toll network. The 407 Toll-Road in turn was being planned since the late 1980's, and supports the assertion by the Coalition against the North American Union, that the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), was a part of the agendas of both former Prime Ministers Mulroney and the U.S. President at that time, even before its formal signing in 2005. Map of the Spanish corporate private owned 407 toll-road around the Greater Toronto Area. The Trans-Texas Corridor is being designed to provide U.S. and certain Canadian Big Business interests, with easier access to the importing of the outsourced manufacturing of goods, from a further exploited Mexican labour pool, as well from a further exploited Chinese labour pool. U.S. and certain Canadian corporations which have also been exploiting Chinese labour, have been planning a NAFTA superhighway linked with enhanced port connections, to further increase the ability of Big Business interests to make exploitative commercial profit. Spanish corporate built NAFTA-NAU Superhighway: Looking east from the Highway 50 overpass towards the Highway 407/427 interchange. This interchange is a large 4-level interchange. U.S. Ambassador to Canada, David H. Wilkins wrote in the Ottawa Citizen on Monday, August 20, that "while conspiracy theories abound, you can take it to the bank that no one involved in these discussions is interested in, or has ever proposed a "North American Union", a "North American super highway," or a "North American currency". The first thing to appreciate is that owners of CanWest Global that owns the Ottawa Citizen have been principal financial donors to Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party of Canada. Mr. Harper who is a principal ally of the Bush administration, is also a signatory of the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP). Therefore, CanWest Global's provision of editorial space to Mr. Wilkins can be seen as an attempt to manipulate the masses through political propaganda. Spanish built NAFTA-NAU Superhighway: Looking east along Highway 407 from the Bathurst Street overpass in Thornhill. Bathurst Street is located roughly at kilometre marker 75. Notice Highway 7 running through the left-side of this photo. Between Dufferin Street and Bayview Avenue, Highway 407 parallels Highway 7 very closely. Secondly, there is ample proof that a NAFTA superhighway is currently being constructed. The NAFTA superhighway is being constructed and developed to facilitate the Big Business agenda that indeed seeks to create an anti-democratic "North American Union". The curiosity of the Hwy 407 toll-road under Spanish corporate ownership is apparent proof of in Canada, of such a SPP-North American Union (NAU) transportation network, that is to be linked with an American toll-road network, with the same ownership. The "NAFTA superhighway", is to become a series of very wide toll-roads to stretch all the way into Canada's north, to rape and pillage Canada's environmental heritage for elite interests connected to a U.S. political-military-industrial complex. NAFTA superhighway is to facilitate the planned consolidation of Canada as an American colony under the clandestine SPP-NAU agenda. It was former U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower who warned the American people upon his retirement from Office that the political-military-industrial complex constitutes a singular threat to democracy. Dr. Ron Paul is among the critics of the NAFTA superhighway. The U.S. Ambassador to Canada does not seem to be demonstrating candour on the on-going construction of the NAFTA superhighway. "This superhighway would connect Mexico, the United States, and Canada, cutting a wide swath through the middle of Texas and up through Kansas City. Offshoots, would connect the main artery to the west coast, Florida, and northeast. Proponents envision a ten-lane colossus the width of several football fields, with freight and rail lines, fibre-optic cable lines, and oil and natural gas pipelines running alongside," says Ron Paul, who represents Texas in the U.S. Congress. The NAFTA superhighway map and agenda appears to have been generated by leaked documents associated with SPP related proceedings, which various groups have sought to disseminate.

Rio Grande Valley Elected Officials Endorse Hillary? 2/15/2008 Rio Grande Valley Elected Officials Endorse Hillary AUSTIN, TX - Texans for Hillary today announced the endorsement of several Rio Grande Valley elected officials, a list of supporters that continues to grow. In a show of support, the Rio Grande Valley elected officials stood behind Hillary Wednesday at her South Texas Kick-off Event in McAllen. "The people of the Rio Grande Valley know Hillary Clinton, view her as an adopted Texan, and have witnessed first-hand her commitment to improve their quality of life. They know that she is the best candidate to deliver solutions in the future, because she has been delivering needed change to their lives for over 30 years," Congressman Ruben Hinojosa said. "Hillary will work to fix our economy, expand access to affordable health care, and protecting our nation's soldiers. We stand with Hillary because she has and will continue to stand with us.

I'm stuck at the mid-point of my Chapter Three. Opinions of it, please. :)? Chapter Three: Penumbra Anna 1st Period AP English III 2nd Period AP Pre-calculus 3rd Period AP Physics 4th Period Aquatic Biology Lunch B 5th Period French III 6th Period Leadership 7th Period AP European History Relief conquered anxiety. I’d been worried I wouldn’t get all the classes I’d asked for in my transcript. Taking five Advanced Placement classes was a lot of work, too much for most people, but I knew that I could do it. The classes weren’t necessarily hard but the colossal workload attached to them was extremely tedious and time consuming. Fear overshadowed relief; eclipsing anxiety. A new school, a new life, a new home. The three glorious gifts I’d been given by moving down south to Killeen. It was with my concession that it was done, Mom didn’t even have to drag me from the lushes’ comforts of Austin to come to the mundaness that was and would always be Killeen. I turned the yellow sheet of my schedule over for the crude overview map of the school, searching for my first period English class in Room 108. I sighed and walked off to make a desperate attempt at finding it. I made it to class a couple of minutes late having to ask a random person in the hallway to escort me to class, but I found this didn’t matter anyways. The teacher wasn’t even there. I bent my head over, carefully examining the laces of my shoes, and stalked off to an empty seat in the very back of the room. I shrugged off my empty book bag into the space below my chair, gazing around the classroom to view this foreign habitat that was my new one. The first thing I realized was how overly decorated it was. Literature posters plastered every space of the walls, overlapping the original white behind so thoroughly that not even a speck of it was visible. The teacher’s desk was despicably messy: Papers books, and pens were scattered all about it, even from this distance that was plainly visible. The second thing that I realized was how segregated everyone was. There was an invisible line in the class dividing the band geeks and anime nerds on the left of it and the jocks and other people who wore extremely tight clothes on the right of it. This was nostalgic; it had been exactly the same back in my old school. Though there had been a middle group, which I had been a part of, that served in place of the invisible equator. Both groups seemed to have liked us equally; I thought of us as being neutral. It seemed things would be different at this school. Inevitably, I would no longer be able to remain neutral and would have to chose between one of the sides, being that weird new kid in the back of the classroom would soon no longer be an available option. For now though, it was a more appealing alternative. I sighed and dropped my gaze from my surroundings and looked down at my heavily graffitied desk, contemplating the events that led me to be here. Mom’s and Dad’s divorce had not been as dramatic as I thought it would be, considering the enormity of their personalities, but in fact it turned out to be a clean, mutual break. Mom was exhausted of the city life in Austin and had out rightly said to Dad that she wanted to move back to her hometown of Killeen. Of course Dad didn’t take this well at all; he had been born, raised, and even went to college in Austin. He refused, Mom filed for divorce, he agreed, and I was left betwixt the two. I truly did love my dad just as much as I loved my mom, but if it were a question as to whom I’d rather live with, he wouldn’t be the one to come out on top. So a week after my birthday on the twenty-second of June, I was packing my bags and getting prepared to spend the remaining month of my summer vacation in Killeen. After moving everything into the new house, which was actually only slightly smaller then the one back in Austin, I went around town to see if there was anything to whisk away the unavoidable hours of boredom from being inside the house for too long. I drove around the small town, went inside its shops, and even took a brave stab at going inside its disappointedly tiny mall, when I came to the conclusion that I had willingly moved to the most dismal, boring place in Texas; possibly in the whole U.S.A. I could not understand Mom’s affinity for Killeen try as I might, and soon found myself privately wishing I had chosen to stay with Dad back in Austin. A beep over my head pulled me out of my thoughts and the sound of a girl’s voice issued around the classroom, announcing to stand up for the Pledge of Allegiance and Texas Flag, which were succeeded by a moment of silence. After sitting down back in my graffitied desk to buckle in for the silence, I noticed how everyone’s heads all darted towards me as soon as they too had sat down. I felt my cheeks turn red and quickly looked down at my desk, starring intently at the name someone had carved into it. Nicholas. “Thank you,” came the girl’s voice once again. “Now will you please turn on your T.V to channel 76 for E.T.V; today’s Eagle announcements.” I looked up at the T.V, a more satisfactory distraction, expecting for someone to turn it on, but no one bothered. I could no longer feel anyone’s eyes gazing intently at me, but I looked around anyways just to be positive. The people on the left were all grossly emerged in a conversation about the newest episode of an anime involving ninjas; the people on the right were recounting the events of last Saturday’s party with extreme enthusiasm. Nobody was paying the slightest bit of attention to me, having found their own social life much more interesting than the new kid in the back of the room. I relaxed a little, my disposition becoming less rigid. I looked up at the clock above the whiteboard behind the teacher’s desk to see what time it was. 9:05. This must have been a pretty horrible teacher to be late for her own first period class on the first day of school. My eyes casually looked around the class before sinking down to my desk again, but before they did I saw not quite everybody had looked away from me. A boy with short brown hair and deep chocolate brown eyes on the right side of the room had looked up from his cell phone that he had been avidly texting on and met my gaze expectantly. I considered dropping my eyes from his but thought that doing so would have been rude, so I simply stared back. I had anticipated for this to be awkward but instead found the unasked attention he was extorting toward me was contrarily pleasant. I weighed the few option presented to me. There was a wide open door for me to walk through if I was to submit to its provocation, but I knew how conceited and selfish people on the other side had the potential to be and ordinarily were. The other door beside this one was marginally open; only a fraction of light escaped from its crack. If I were to forcefully open this door then I knew that that meant I would be skyrocketed to the bottom of the school’s food chain. Even if the people down there with me were much kinder then the people higher up, I didn’t fancy being a lowly producer; not even close to being a primary consumer. I felt an unfathomable longing for the middle group that had always been there, I only now acknowledged how much I missed them. Unsure if I was making the best decision or not, I felt the muscles of my mouth uncomfortably twitch as I gave the gawking boy a timid smile. This had evidently been the sign of reassurance he had been looking and hopefully expecting to see because he flashed me an unabashed smile, revealing the braces on his teeth that didn’t mitigate the radiance of them in the slightest. The handle of the classroom’s door turned as someone from the other side opened it and I was forced out of curiosity to drop my prolonged gaze and instead look at who had entered the classroom: A squat women with short, fly-away, brown curly hair with some traces of gray in it who was wearing glasses that framed outrageously gray eyes. The people on both sides of the classroom quickly shifted their desks away from each other and stared placidly at whom I assumed had to be the teacher, silently evaluating how strict she might be. I gave a final fertile glance at the boy I was starring at and saw he had decided to take the same course of action at the same time I did. He winked at me before turning back around to face the front of the room and I surprised myself by genuinely smiling. Perhaps this place wouldn’t be as horrible as I had expected it to be. By now, the teacher had sat down in her own wooden, arched chair and was shuffling through the untidy items spread out among her desk. Once again, I looked up at the clock and saw only five minutes had transpired since I last looked at it. She was fifteen minutes late. “Ah, here it is!” she exclaimed in a heavily drenched Irish accent as she extracted a white paper from the top of a teetering pile of papers that looked as if the most gentlest breeze could cause them to topple over. “Now when I call your name, I would like you to respond with “here. I’m very sure you are all used to this by now anyways….Anna Adkins!” “Here,” I responded quietly, looking back down at the embedded name on my desk as I felt the eyes of turned heads piercing through me. “Eh? No Anna Adkins?” “No, no. I-I’m here,” I stuttered helplessly, speaking a little louder then before. My eyes still hadn’t left the name on my desk and my cheeks burned even more fiercely from the drawn out attention focused on me. “Well, speak up next time,” said the teacher in a tone meant for someone who had done her a deep wrong. She muttered something unintelligent under her breath, more then likely in Irish just in case somebody in the front row overheard her, and continued on with the roll. “Justin Armani!’ I looked up from my desk to see whom the named belonged to. If I was going to spend about two more years with these people than having a name to match their face was the concrete first step to furbishing any kind of relationship. I waited for a “here,” but none came. The people on the left were looking annoyed at something I couldn’t fathom. The people on the right were all glancing at each other with smiles on their faces, as if they were enjoying some kind of private joke. I could find no apparent connection between the abrupt changes of persona. “No Justin Armani?” asked the teacher, looking up from the roll sheet and scanning the class with her gray eyes as if expecting the person in question to jump out of their seat. “Here,” came a quiet voice from the right side of the room, an outbreak of stifled chuckles and snorts came from there as well. I looked at the boy with chocolate brown eyes and saw that he was also looking at me with a sly smile etched on his face. I didn’t understand what was going on. “Did someone say something?” asked the teacher at apparent loss as to if she was hearing a voice inside her head or not. I felt a surge of sympathy towards her: She was experiencing the unavoidable symptoms partnered along with old age. “Here,” came the voice again. This time I saw whom it belonged to. I was still looking at the boy and noticed that his mouth narrowly opened after the teacher had asked again. “Eh?” she said. “Here!” he blasted, causing me to startle in my chair, my heart beating in profuse mummers. An eruption of laughing issued from the people around him, whereas the people on the other hemisphere of the equator were starring daggers at its other half. “Now really Mr. Armani. Such yelling is not permitted in my class. I will not warn you again. And all of you, stop laughing!” said the teacher glaring at who I now was completely sure was Justin. He laughed to himself with everyone else as the teacher continued on with the roll and the giggles began to slowly abate. I dropped my gaze from the side of his face as he turned his head to catch my eyes again, looking at my desk for what felt like the infinite time. I knew he was looking at me, analyzing to see if what he had done was humorous to me. I tried to keep my face as stoic as possible but felt that some traces of hurt were plainly etched there. I was extremely borderline. I truly couldn’t decide if what Justin had done was funny; making fun of an old lady with a hearing impairment was about as funny as taking candy from a baby. To me they both had the potential to be hilarious, but were also extremely potent to being hurtful. Even if I had ignored the evident contradictions my conscious was giving, I still would have found it very hard to even pretend this was funny. I don’t know if I was being paranoid or not but I felt like he was poking fun at me for being shy when the teacher had called upon me. Admittedly, this hurt me even though I knew it was too small a wound to worry about. I didn’t like being the scapegoat for hilarity, being laughed at instead of being laughed with. This might be insight into Justin’s character, or maybe I was being too judgmental based on first impressions alone. They were often wrong anyways. The groan of a chair skidding against the floor caused my head to snap up and look at the front of the room to see that the teacher had gotten up from her chair. She carried in her arms the familiar beginning of the year packets introducing the teacher and their many rules. She passed them out to everyone and when I received mine I looked at the top of the first sheet and saw the title “Ms.___ Guidelines” followed by the materials needed for her class. I was about to sigh quietly but thought better of it just in case it someone found this as an excuse to turn around and look at me, more unwanted attention. I slumped deeper in my chair, preparing for the droning speech about her various rules and what she expected from her A.P classes. She assigned us a two page, front and back, paper about any kind of obstacle we’d overcame in our life that made us stronger, due Wednesday. My right hand moaned with foreboding. I could imagine how much pain it would be in by tomorrow night. The bell sounded above us from the intercom and everyone scuffled to get their book bags, in a rush to escape the confinements of the room as quickly as possible. My reflexes, already slower than most people’s, would have slowed me down naturally but I decided to dramatize getting my book bag from under my chair to perfectly ensure I would be the last one to leave, which I was. As I walked out the classroom’s door and turned bearing right toward the staircase further down the hallway, I walked headfirst into the warm, muscular chest of somebody leaning against the wall by the doorframe. I hurriedly staggered away from them, ready to stutter a quick apology and leave the escalating awkward scene. I lifted my head up and parted my lips slightly, but when I found myself looking at the tanned face of Justin my mouth just dangled wide open, the words about to flutter from it extinct. He smiled. “Need help getting to your next class?” His voice was deep and husky. I was positive if he were around his friends it wouldn’t be. His eyes traveled down from my own and to my wide-open mouth. I quickly closed it, feeling my cheeks turn red once again. “Yeah, I probably do.” The corners of my mouth twitched up, forming another genuine smile. The truth was I actually did need his help unless I took the risk of being late again. “ Kay, what is it?” His voice was soothing to me; the red patches on my cheeks began to fade away. “Um, let me look real quick.” I said, raising the schedule in my left hand up to my face and searched for second period. “Pre-Cal. Room 209.” I looked up at Justin; his eyes weren’t looking at my own anymore but had drifted down to the logo branded on my white shirt stretched across my chest. I cleared my throat and raised my schedule to my chest, wrapping my arms around it. “Oh, I have Pre-Cal next, too.” Justin said, looking up from my chest after I had covered it, completely unashamed. It didn’t bother me either; honestly, I had grown used to the bestiality of men back in freshman year and the fact it was Justin only made it easier to ignore. I felt oddly comfortable around him, but since he was a guy it was only typical that he would give into one of his initial instincts: Being hungry, sleepy, and, of course, horny. “A.P?” I asked, making an effort to hide my disbelief “Nah, regular. The only A.P class I have is English,” Justin said, leaning off of the wall. “But my class is right next door to yours, it’s Room 211. I can walk you there if you want.” “Sounds like a plan, “ I said as we walked down the hallway to the staircase. It was amazing how easy talking to him was. A hello hadn’t even been necessary. “So, you’re new here right?” Justin asked me as he opened the door of the staircase. “Yeah, I came from Austin,” I said as we walked up the first set of stairs. “It’s a big jump from a city like Austin to a place like Killeen,” he said stopping on the landing in between the first and second staircase when we reached it. I didn’t respond to this truth. It was too big a jump. For the first time since I had started talking to him, I felt uncomfortable. Instead of stopping on the landing like he had, I turned my back to him and continued up the staircase. I heard him walk from the landing, his footsteps lingering in the almost absolute emptiness, and he appeared beside me. “Do you like it here so far?” Justin was delving too deep for our first conversation. The uncomfortable feeling of the situation was becoming paramount, forming an invisible barrier around me, warding me against any particle of Justin’s aura. “I like it here so far….I’m still getting used to the place.” Lying wasn’t easy for me, but since half of this was the truth it made things a bit easier to do. Still, Justin wasn’t fooled. “You don’t look happy,” he said pushing upon the handles of the door that led up stairs and holding it open for me. “I’m still getting used to things here,” I repeated the truthful part of my half-lie. A silence issued between us as we walked pass Room 205, maneuvering around the sparse, stationary crowds. I noticed some of the faces were familiar, they had been in my last period class. They glared at us with scrutiny, disbelief. For one fleeting second I wondered if Justin’s pleasant exterior was all just a show and that he was using me or making fun of me again. “Room 209, ma’am,” Justin said flashing me another wide smile of his. He inadvertently sent a final blast of comfort that broke through my invisible force field. All previous suspicions and discomfort were washed away. Justin was something pretty amazing. “Well, thanks for the help Justin.” Even though I would thoroughly miss him when he was gone, I was eager to escape to the back of my classroom. Again. It was my only sanctuary from the majority of these impending stares. “No problem, no problem.” He seemed to be in a different world completely. I noticed his forehead wrinkle; his eyebrows contracted together. He was gazing intently at me and I was gazing right back, making me completely oblivious of anything else going on outside our little bubble. “I guess I’ll be seeing you in a little while then?” I said after pulling out of my trance, unsure of how long we had been standing there in silence. Hopefully it had been brief, but my mind told me something different. I grudgingly popped our bubble and took a step towards the door of my next class. “Wait real quick.” Justin gently grabbed my arm and I turned around. His brows were separated and his forehead was smooth again, but his eyes still glinted with purpose. “What lunch do you have?” I tried to recall my designated lunch without glimpsing at my schedule. “B, I think.” “Cool.” Justin’s eyes relaxed but they still burrowed into mine. It was like he was attempting to read my thoughts. I blinked. “You should come eat lunch with me.” He said the words slowly, making them sound awkward. I hadn’t given much thought to where I would sit at during lunch but to a school socialite like Justin the social order of the tables were stupendously important; status quo and all. I understood the dire risk he was taking by inviting me to join his table. “That’s kind of what I already had in mind.” This lie was easy. Justin’s face brightened and he shot me another wide smile of his. We were both evokers of jubilation. “See you later then, Anna.” He gave me a brief wave and I returned it with a smile. We both walked away to our classes and once again I became aware of the sheer amount of people that had witnessed our transactions. I made a mental note to constantly remind myself it was too early to harbor any kind of crush. The mere thought echoed in my head. Crush. Crush. Crush. Justin’s face and wide smile emanated into my thoughts; my heart lagged with longing. As I entered the classroom I looked at the clock even though I knew it would be an hour until I would be able to see him again. I would be positively pining by then. With a nostalgic rush of déjà vu I sighed, looked down at my shoelaces, and headed toward the back of the classroom. Nicholas The day was going by too slow. It was difficult to believe that it was only halfway over. Of course lunchtime would have the complete opposite effect, going faster rather than dragging in lulls like the last four classes had. Forty-five minutes of freedom would not feel so. Time had a horrible habit of speeding itself up when I wanted it to slow down, slowing down when I wanted it to speed up. I stabbed at my baked potato with my fork as I watched Jared and Tom wait in line for their lunch. A single girl separated them from Tony and his friend whom I was pretty sure was called Justin. I had never spoken or had any classes with him before but, like Tony, his name was often heard in the hallway. I looked away from Tony and sought to find something distracting, the beast was beginning to manifest. I knew my fervent search would be hopeless if I allowed it to take over; my will power wasn’t strong enough yet. Then my eyes fell upon the perfect distraction. Her. The girl in between Tom and Justin had swung her bleach blond head around and was laughing at what the latter had said, revealing a dazzling set of teeth that glinted in the sunlight shimmering down from the windows above. Even from this distance I could see that her eyes were a true shade of cerulean blue, her skin pale. Extremely pale, ivory even. I looked down at my hand that wasn’t holding the fork and noted that she was possibly even paler then I was, a fete I had not thought possible. I looked back up at her, mesmerized. She was entering her pin code and her mouth was forming words I couldn’t hear. The cafeteria lady she was talking to went to the ¬¬¬_____ behind her and grabbed Vitamin Water and then handed it to the girl. She walked off to one of the circular tables that were in clear view from my corner booth. “Hey, man,” I looked away from the girl and saw Jared standing over me with Tom; they slipped into the bench across on the other side. “Hey,” I rested my elbows on the table and balled up my hand into a fist, cupping it with my other hand, and positioned my chin on the top of them. Thinking. “So how’s your day been so far? This is the first year I won’t have all my classes with you.” Jared said. As he spoke, I noticed how oddly perfect his teeth were. I was used to the haphazard mess they had been when he had braces. Another thing I would have to get used to this year. “Boring. And long.” I looked away from them and back at the girl who was now sitting at a table with Tony and Justin, positively gaping at the latter. My gaze turned into a glare, a totally different monster then before growled inside of me. “ I think I might skip the rest of the day.” She tucked her long hair behind her ear and the sun shined down on her, illuminating her the way it did paper. Why was I so intrigued by her? No other girl had ever peaked by interest this thoroughly. But then again, no other girl I had met before was an Albino. Maybe I had some kind of unknown fetish for them. “You shouldn’t do that.” I knew it was Tom’s voice without having to look. “At least not this week, wait ‘til next week.” Always the voice of reason amongst the group, he’d be saying the same thing again next Monday. “ Sure thing. Only for you, Tom,” I smiled even though my eyes remained a glare. I heard Jared bring up a topic about Tony, malice implanted in every syllable. I, thankfully, wasn’t needed for this conversation. My smiled dropped back into a frown. She was trying to unscrew the top of her bottle but Justin grabbed it from her after watching her struggle for a few seconds. She smiled feebly at him as he opened it and set it in front of her. She didn’t drink from it but instead surveyed the cafeteria while Justin began talking to Tony. Her eyes wondered to the “Got Milk?” poster above our booth, then at Tony, then at Jared, and then at me. Our eyes met. The beast was let loose from its cage. My story has nothing to do with vampires or werewolves whatsoever. Woot, woot! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that those odd underscore marks represent blank spots for things i couldn't fill in, can't think of a good name for them. >_>

My second chapter( first four pages of it)? BTW: I'm fourteen years old and the first chapter I posted here earlier last week. Look at ony my profile for it if your interested :P. * I meant look on my profile for it, was typing really fast. Sorry. :)*

serious biblical researchers and lost atheists only? Dear Brother in Christ, I am impressed with your knowledge of the Word. You are an obvious man of biblical education and I know you have the resources I require at your disposal. I have a problem and a victory tied together in me, I don't have your resources and education, but I have been trusted with information. I want to make this very short and to the point and I have evidence you can examine that proves what I say that is at your disposal. I ask you to check my work. About 1 year and a quarter ago I was studying a book called The Return of Jesus Christ by Rene Pasche I was at a chapter talking about the end times and the war with the anti Christ copy write 1955. In the book was mentioned the prophecy. Daniel 12 7. And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. God Showed me another book, or perhaps it is in the Pasche book also, perhaps in another chapter that the phrase (for a time, times, and an half;) that it has numerical meaning. The phrase translates to some scholars as the number 12.25 I haven’t found it again but will study more. Do you have resource info on this? It said a time is 3.5 a times is 3.5+3.5 a half is 1.75 added together = 12.25 Well as I read this the voice of God asked me to take a scale ruler I had (it is a ruler with scale = units) Architects and carpenters use to convert drawings into “same size” buildings. For example 1 inch On the plans = 10 feet of linear wall in the building to be built. I am a carpenter so I knew what god meant. The same as with map scales. The only map available was the NIV bible map in the back of the bible so I used that map to scale the USA to the east 12.25 units, God told me to use the .25=1 scale. From where I stood in Saint Petersburg Florida, Florida was shifted to the east and overlaid the map perfectly, so that the West bank of Florida, (Saint Pete is on the Gulf of Mexico) overlaid Europe with Judea on that map. Judaea sits on the West Bank of the Mediterranean Sea, and actually looks like Florida as it is drawn on the map. The mount of olives was in this model KJV Zechariah 14:1-5 Zechariah 14 1. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. 2. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3. Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. In this model could you find out for me if the square or rectangle shape marked by the 2 cornerstones of Saint Petersburg Florida and the mount in Palestine scale to a tapestry, or temple, or some other thing specified in the bible, my computer wont do it. In the Pasche in the 8th chapter the word Armageddon is mentioned to be translated “the massacre from on high” and the “mountain strike” In that chapter and others the locations of these massacre locations are prophesied of in the bible as the locations of anti Christ power these and others in this book. These locations are pointed out in the war with the anti Christ at the end of time, Magog, Togamath, Cush, Cossacks, Put, Gomer and many others. They correspond to end time hot spots as (In order) (Magog =Canada or NY,) (Togamath =Washington DC or NY,) (Cush =Cuba,) (Cossacks =Florida,) (Phut =Texas, and Louisiana,) (Gomer = Colorado.) These are the Locations mention in warnings of spiritual warfare about 12 and .25 yr. Ago. These places God told me to mark on that map I had scaled on the Palestine side so I looked through the maps and marked them in the bible. Then God told me to overlay the maps so the “transparency” of locations could be marked over the corresponding American locations. Then God told me to put the info on Yahoo Q&A with some other info included within this info to seek help from other biblical scholars to check for accuracy. All these corresponding locations God warned 1 and a quarter years ago Have be Are you afraid to check the map? would it prove that athiesisimumbopoo is monkeyspit?an then ya forgot to wipe off yer chiN?

And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. In this model could you find out for me if the square or rectangle shape marked by the 2 cornerstones of Saint Petersburg Florida and the mount in Palestine scale to a tapestry, or temple, or some other thing specified in the bible, my computer wont do it. In the Pasche in the 8th chapter the word Armageddon is mentioned to be translated “the massacre from on high” and the “mountain strike” In that chapter and others the locations of these massacre locations are prophesied of in the bible as the locations of anti Christ power these and others in this book. These locations are pointed out in the war with the anti Christ at the end of time, Magog, Togamath, Cush, Cossacks, Put, Gomer and many others. They correspond to end time hot spots as (In order) (Magog =Canada or NY,) (Togamath =Washington DC or NY,) (Cush =Cuba,) (Cossacks =Florida,) (Phut =Texas, and Louisiana,) (Gomer = Colorado.) These are the Locations mention in warnings of spiritual warfare about 12 and .25 yr. Ago. These places God told me to mark on that map I had scaled on the Palestine side so I looked through the maps and marked them in the bible. Then God told me to overlay the maps so the “transparency” of locations could be marked over the corresponding American locations. Then God told me to put the info on Yahoo Q&A with some other info included within this info to seek help from other biblical scholars to check for accuracy. All these corresponding locations God warned 1 and a quarter years ago Have be All these corresponding locations God warned 1 and a quarter years ago Have been hit With Hurricanes and Earthquakes and Financial Collapse and Drought and Fire and flooding in the last month. In the month some say would be the twelve days and twelve days after Jesus real birthday 9-11-03BC. Check the teaching at yahoo groups Groups.yahoo.com/groupfoucuingongodsword2.com Last month. I warned America of impending storms at these locations, (I can count about 16 strikes from on high in the last 45 days off the top of my head) All of which have now hit or soon will because many of these locations are on this side of the waters (USA) and that side (Palestine) as written in almost every old apolitical book in the bible. Many have suffered many hits then suffered multiple hits. I want help because God told me to warn America. Nobody listened to God then, it seems but last month every target in these ancient bible prophecies had human death and carnage related with them. Do you love You could help Jesus help them because it is the sign from heaven promiced in the bible to happen or you could ignore it an all your freinds would know you did cus of what you posted to me. research what people say to Jesus (me) on Q&A more info @ Yahoo groups focusingongodsword2

Does the North USA really want the South out?

If you really had to, which of these town names would you choose for your daughter? I've been inspired by Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol. Bristol is a city in southeastern England. It got me thinking -- what other town names would make decent monikers for girls? Here's a list I've compiled from researching Google maps. Which would you choose + do you think it's a good idea to name children after faraway towns? (I didn't include town names that are already used as given names, like Mildred and Helena -- but I wasn't sure about some of them). Clancy (Montana, US) Kamiah (Montana, US) Sonora (Texas, US) Simmler (California, US) Vallejo (California, US) Piercy (California, US) Tanoak (tuh-noke?) (California, US) Salyer (California, US) Codette (Saskatchewan, CA) Glaslyn (Saskatchewan, CA) Tulliby (Saskatchewan, CA) Mallaig (Alberta, CA) Spedden (Alberta, CA) Bellis (Alberta, CA) Ceska (sess-ka?)

A question for our European friends? Why is it that whenever you want to try to prove that Americans are inferior, you always bring up the point that most Europeans have passports, while few Americans do? Have you ever taken the time to look at a map? Are you aware that travelling, as I did a few months back, from Maryland on the east coast, to Texas, just HALFWAY across the country, is the same distance as going from Spain to Russia? And has it ever occurred to you that most of our states are larger than all of your countries? Yeah, if I lived in Belgium, I'd practically need a passport just to go to the grocery store, and vacation time is pretty boring if you are stuck in a country the size of our largest city. Americans, however, can travel freely across a nation larger than your entire continent. Plus, we can freely travel to the two countries that border us. Why do we need passports except to fly over there and put up with the insufferable snobbery from you arrogant twits? Get over your false cosmopolitanism. Of course you would, britsurfer. Whatever it takes to make you feel superior. I am aware of the cultural differences. We have those here too, though not as pronounced. But to get the same experience, we'd have to travel much much further. And unless your governments want to start subsidizing our airfare, we are pretty much limited. You can experience different cultures travelling by car, especially now with your Chunnel. We can't. All we have is an mostly English-speaking northern continent and a mostly Spanish-speaking southern continent. The Bricklayer: To you, seeing "The World" means travelling maybe 50 miles to the border on maybe a quarter of a tank of gas, in an SUV. I tell you what, I'll give you my Paypal address so you can send me $2000 so I can travel to your country and "see the world." And I'll pay the 15 pounds or so for gas for you to travel to France. One more time: How dare you call us lazy! Until you are willing to pay for us to fly to far off destinations then you have nothing to say. As I keep pointing out, for you to experience a different culture, all you need to so is travel 40 miles and spend maybe $5 on gas. For us, it is a far more expensive proposition. November Girl: Is it a stereotype when every reply to this question, except yours of course, expressed the same sentiments I accuse them of in the question?

US attacks China on Tibet, but US stole Mexico lands, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, native Indian lands, etc hypocrisy? Iws the USA and the West in general hypocrites and just plain anti-Chinese in attacking Tibet blindly? how come USA unfairly attacks China on Tibet, but doesn't return the stolen lands to Mexico, Hawaii, native Indians, etc?USA attacked Iraq for oil, but look at bad karma of endless spending and endless wars and endless high oil prices! Now Mexican illegal immigrants reconquering stolen lands in America? is this report proof that USA stole Mexico lands and many other lands?where is true justice then? Absolut vodka pulls ad showing California in Mexico Mon Apr 7, 9:36 PM ET The distillers of Sweden's Absolut vodka have withdrawn an advertisement run in Mexico that angered many U.S. citizens by idealizing an early 19th century map showing chunks of the United States as Mexican. The billboard ad has the slogan "In an Absolut World" slapped over a pre-1848 map showing California, Arizona and other U.S. states as Mexican territory. Those states were carved out of what had been Mexican lands until that year. Although it was not shown in the United States, U.S. media outlets picked up on the ad, and after a barrage of complaints, Absolut's maker said on Sunday the ad campaign would cease. Defending the campaign last week, Absolut maker Vin & Spirit said the ad was created "with a Mexican sensibility" and was not meant for the U.S. market. "In no way was this meant to offend or disparage, nor does it advocate an altering of borders, nor does it lend support to any anti-American sentiment, nor does it reflect immigration issues," a spokeswoman wrote on Absolut's Web site. "Instead, it hearkens to a time which the population of Mexico may feel was more ideal," she wrote. Absolut's blog cite has received more than a thousand comments since the ad campaign was launched a few weeks ago, with many calling for boycotts of the Swedish company. "I have poured the remainder of my Absolut bottles down the sink," one blogger wrote. A war between Mexico and the United States from 1846 to 1848 started with Mexico's refusal to recognize the U.S. annexation of Texas and ended with the occupation of Mexico City by U.S. troops. At the end, Mexico ceded nearly half of its territory to the United States, forming the states of California, Nevada, Utah and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Wyoming. Mexicans remain sensitive about the loss and the location of the border. At the same time, the United States is fortifying barriers to keep out undocumented Mexican migrants. Some Mexicans use the term "Reconquista" (reconquest) to refer to the growing presence in California of Mexican migrants and their descendants. France's Pernod Ricard is taking over Absolut vodka, one of the world's top-selling spirit brands, after buying Vin & Spirit from the Swedish government at the end of March.
