I did my research on day light savings time because I was truly interested in learning why we change our times twice a year. Is it that the stars really align on those days just changing times? Is it because it gets darker earlier and so it just makes sense? Or is it all a capitalist ploy to maintain the flow of events? You guessed it!

So, now I'm a little confused when understanding real time and how to determine time and space based on the stars. Have we gotten so far away from real time because of the varying global time shifts? Some countries adjust their times by 20 minutes, some not at all and some have adjusted their times by 2 hours. Who's time are we on and what time is it really?

Global Commission on HIV and the Law

GET TESTED TODAY!

The Global Commission on HIV and Law was officially launched on June 24, 2010 by Helen Clark, Administrator, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Michel Sidibé, Executive Director, The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). The Commission’s goal is to develop actionable, evidence-informed and human rights-based recommendations supporting national legal environments that enable effective HIV responses and realize the human rights of those living with and affected by HIV. To this end, the Commission will focus on some of the most challenging legal and human rights issues in the context of HIV, including criminalization of HIV transmission and behaviors and practices such as drug use, sex work and consensual adult same sex sexual relations.

Drug lord Antonio Ezequiel Cardenas Guillen of the Gulf Cartel (aka Tony Tormenta/Tony the Storm), was killed Nov. 5, 2010 with three of his workers in a battle with the Mexican military in Tamaulipas state just across the border from Brownsville, Texas.

US authorities had offered a $5m reward for information leading to his arrest after receiving a drug trafficking charge. He was the US's 11th most wanted Mexican fugitive. His brother Osiel Guillen just received 25 years in a US, Texas prison facility. The Gulf Cartel was Mexico's second most powerful cartel and they even had around $2.5m (USD) reward towards the arrest of Tony Tormenta.

What does this mean for the US and Mexico?
