Double Strength
Has a double knockout format ever been considered for the world cup? 3rd group games are not full strength….
Teams leave players on yellows out of their teams and there is potential for match throwing in order to avoid teams in the knockout phase. people paying huge prices for tickets are sometime not seeing both teams playing for a win.
In Earlier World cups they did try a straight knockout but most people prefer the groups and i Agree. you may get the odd match with nothing to play for but in a straight knockout you get alot of poor teams playing for draws in the hope of going thru on penalties. Just look at the European Cup in the 80′s and how Red Star got all the way to the final and Won by playing for draws in each round and winning on pens. The theory is the better teams in the knockout stage won’t do this, but it still happens..

The US Economy Strength
The US economy strength has taken a beating lately due to the financial strain posed by shaky financial markets and the existence of troubled assets across many companies. In fact, the weight of these troubles continues to plague established financial institutions to such a degree that it might be quite a while before the tide turns.
The Treasury might have the authority to purchase troubled assets in an attempt to stem the downward spiral of the US economy, but that doesn’t mean that this strategy is going to be successful. The intentions of the “Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008″ might be clear, but they do not come with a guarantee. What does this fact do for the American people? After all, in order to trust that the financial world will straighten itself out and the US economy strength will rebound, one has to have a certain element of faith. Faith in the system seems to be in short supply at the moment.
How many individuals are wondering if the US economy can rebound and gain back its once robust strength? How many companies and corporations is the US government going to have to bail out before the economy takes a turn for the better? These are all good questions that only time will tell.
Certain signs do exist that the US economy retains strength in some areas. In particular, according to the US Treasury, US exports grew over the last four quarters. In fact, the growth, which was boosted by a strong growth in global markets, reached 11 percent. Plus, core inflation remained constant or contained. According to the latest figures from the US Treasury, the consumer price index had risen 2.5 percent over the last twelve months if one excludes things such as the cost of energy and food.
Unfortunately, the US economy shows no strength when it comes to the area of employment. The number of paid workers decreased again in September, more than doubling the decrease that paid employment met with in August in the United States.
The primary goal of the “Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008″ is that the package will infuse sufficient capital into troubled financial institutions to allow them to rebound effectively enough to circumvent the downward spiral that is currently going on. It is intended to provide a temporary boost that will help the economy to navigate around the negative drag of the housing market and its woes. This strategy is designed to encourage US economy strength that will far outmaneuver any negative consequences of the troubling financial situation currently facing businesses and corporations in the RS today.
The US government does not intend for the negative aftershocks of a slowing economy to linger. The goal is to have the stimulus package create new growth that increases the US economy’s strength, bringing it back to the robust financial level of better days. Indeed, the long-term growth of the US economy strength is as much a part of the picture as the short-term growth of the US economy strength.

Can I substitute regular vanilla for double-strength vanilla? If so, what are the proportions?
I know you can substitute double-strength vanilla for regular vanilla at half the amount… but what if I need double-strength and only have regular?
You could double the amount but it may make the recipe runny it really depends on what you are making! If it is something delicate you could reduce the vanilla by boiling it to get rid of some of the water.
