131 people on board at the time of this accident, including six Americans ***. San Andres is very much a holiday island, and many people would've been going there on vacation. One woman did die, and we also understand that two people at least are undergoing surgery or need surgery for head traumas that they sustained, including a 12-year-old, lightning may have had a role in this, that as the aircraft was coming into land, it may have been hit by a lightning strike. But that is something that crash investigators will be looking at. Those quotes were accurate, that they reflect Secretary Gates' feelings on the subject, that he does want to retire next year, not in 2012. And the reason for that is he feels that he would be very hard to find a good, solid replacement in 2012. He feels that, you know, 9, 10 months before an election, in which President Barack Obama may or may not be leaving office that it would be hard to find a good, qualified candidate who would want to fill that job for potentially only nine or 10 months. We expect our commitment to clean energy to lead to more than 800,000 jobs by 2012. That’s not just creating work in the short term, that’s going to help lay the foundation for lasting economic growth. See, when folks lift up the hoods on the cars of the future, I want them to see engines stamped “Made in America.”; when new batteries to store solar power come off the line, I want to see printed on the side, “Made in America.”; when new technologies are developed and new industries are formed, I want them made right here in America. Well, it is kind of in between. It works as a progesterone,uh, antagonist, that binds the progesterone receptor which is important for a pregnancy to continue and also it interferes with ovulation. So, whether it particularly stops ovulation or stops implantation is, is the issue, but it is not really clear and there is no study that you can prove which way it works, but we do know it works. If you give it to women, up to 5 days after unprotected sex, 70% of them have fewer pregnancies, so there you have less unwanted pregnancies, that's a good thing. |
