MEXICO CITY (AP) ? The four candidates for Mexico's presidency officially launched their campaigns for the July 1 election on Friday, all of them promising change.

Enrique Pena Nieto, who is running for the Institutional Revolutionary Party that ruled Mexico from 1929 to 2000, used the word "change" 26 times in his first official campaign speech.

"Mexico is clear on what it wants, and it doesn't want more of the same," Pena Nieto declared in the western city of Guadalajara. "It wants to exit this stage of shadow and darkness and enter a new stage of light and hope."

Pena Nieto's focus on "a grand crusade for change" and "the change we want" echoed the 2008 campaign slogan of President Barack Obama, "change we can believe in." It was unclear whether that echo was intentional.

The Obama campaign's skillful use of social media in 2008, when it employed email, text messages and the Web to reach voters, appears to have made an impact on the Mexican political scene.

Josefina Vazquez Mota, whose pre-campaign appearances have been plagued by logistical difficulties and poor planning, told supporters Friday to use social media, "this new world that accompanies us," to attract potential voters.

"It's going to be hard to reach every corner of the country," Vazquez Mota acknowledged. In fact, the first female candidate for a major Mexican party has had trouble making it on time to campaign events in Mexico City, let alone the often violent and isolated outlying regions of the country.

Though she is an incumbent-party candidate, Vazquez Mota is campaigning on the one-word slogan, "Different," perhaps an attempt to distance herself from President Felipe Calderon's six-year offensive against drug cartels. More than 47,000 lives have been lost to drug-related violence in that time.

All three major-party candidates said they want to bring peace to Mexico.

Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who is making his second run for the presidency for the leftist Democratic Revolution Party after narrowly losing the 2006 election, said at his first campaign news conference Friday that he represents "true change."

Lopez Obrador led weeks of street blockades to protest what he claimed was fraud in the 2006 elections and later anointed himself as "legitimate president." He has since been seeking to change his angry, radical image for a softer one.

"Let all of us, from below, undertake a campaign to build a new, just, humane, dignified, free democratic and loving republic," he said.

Supporters such as 58-year-old schoolteacher Beatriz Lara Aguirre say Lopez Obrador has changed this time around: "He's more serene," she commented. But the leftist candidate complained as he did six years ago that "we are going to come up against money, government agencies and some news media who want to impose (the choice of) the next president on us."

Super Foods for Super Kids: 5 Super Foods to Feed Your Super ...

Posted by Dr. Heather Manley on March 30, 2012 ? Leave a Comment?

Trying to get more super foods into your super kids? Serve your family whole foods and you can?t go wrong! One boy once said to me, ?Oh I get it ? whole foods are foods you can pick!?

Eating whole colorful foods is a good idea because these super foods generally are nutrient dense and provide the essential vitamins, minerals, fats, proteins and phytonutrients that kids need. They are also usually much tastier and easier to snack on!

Creating and incorporating whole colorful foods in your family?s diet is the perfect way to provide essential nutrients that are necessary for healthy growth, healthy immune system and general wellbeing ? hence why they earned the label ?super foods?!

5 Super Foods to Feed Your Super Family

Super Food #1: Asparagus

History: The people of Greece used asparagus to cure their toothaches. It sounds crazy but it worked! The Romans surrounded would surround their prized asparagus gardens with high walls. Asparagus made its way to North America in the 19th century after a quick stop in England.

Why it?s healthy: Asparagus is considered a super food because it?s packed with the antioxidant glutathione, which is an important element in supporting the liver during detoxification. This may sound unnecessary for children but we all all exposed to many unwanted toxins on a daily basis and helping our livers in any way is beneficial. Asparagus is packed with fiber, which does an amazing job of keeping the digestive and circulatory system squeaky clean by removing toxins.

Simply delicious: Try roasted asparagus sprinkled with a dash of Parmesan cheese.

Super Food #2: Blueberries

History: Blueberries are one of the very few fruits native to North America. Native Americans not only ate the berries for their sweet taste, but also used to leaves and roots for medicinal reasons and to help dye their clothes! Blueberries are Maine?s state berry in honor of Abijah Tabbutt, who invented the blueberry rake to aid in the picking of blueberries by hand.

Why it?s healthy: Blueberries make the list of super foods because they provide potassium, fiber, and the phytonutrient, bioflavanoids, which the eyes use for night vision! They are packed with antioxidants, which do much in the body to help protect healthy cells from damage.

Simply delicious: Blueberries are usually an easy food to encourage your kids to eat as they are super sweet tasting. Try adding them to oatmeal, yogurt, baking a blueberry crisp, mixing in a smoothie with peaches and bananas and tossing into salads.

Super Food #3: Cauliflower

History: Cauliflower are thought to have originated form Asia, and made their way to Turkey and Italy where they were treasured food. A cousin of the cabbage, the cauliflower buds appeared in North America in the 1800s.

Why it?s healthy: Cauliflower is a super food because it?s packed with many nutrients but the one that stands out the most for kids is fiber and its effect on the digestive system. This cruciferous vegetable will give you close to half your daily fiber needs, and the chemical, sulforaphane, found in cauliflower, may help protect the lining of the stomach, helping to decrease stomachaches.

Simply delicious: Serve to your family raw with a dip or try roasting them and adding them to any soup.

Super Food #4: Avocado

History: Known as the, ?Alligator Pear,? by the English who where living in Jamaica as they thought the skin resembled that of an alligator! The avocado is part of the berry family and was officially named by Spanish explorers.

Why it?s healthy: Creamy, and easy to digest, avocados provide a terrific source of the ?good fat? called monounsaturated fat, which is why it makes the list of super foods. Monounsaturated fats are an essential part of proper growth and development and enable the absorption of many fat-soluble nutrients. Avocados are also packed with a large variety of nutrients including potassium, which is important for good heart health.

Simply delicious: Because of its creamy texture, most kids do enjoy eating avocados. Try cutting into cubes, and serving to the kids either eat alone or mixed with cilantro and a little splash of lemon, and served with corn chips.

Super Food #5: Peas

History: Known as a fruit due to its seed content; however, once used in cooking, it is known as a vegetable. Canada is the biggest producer of peas and due to its great popularity, India is the largest importer.

Why it?s healthy: Peas are the funest super food on the list because they are round, lively and fun to eat. Peas are packed with protein, which is very helpful in maintaining blood sugar levels. This helps keep our kids? emotional and physical states very balanced and also aids in preventing diabetes.

Simply delicious: Kids will eat them straight out of the pod. For an extra super food boost, try adding peas to salads, soups, or serve as a side dish.

Once-warring actors unions finally merge

Screen Actors Guild (SAG) National President, Ken Howard, left, and American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, (AFTRA) President, Roberta Reardon, shown at podium, announce the merging of their unions after a referendum at the SAG headquarters in Los Angeles on Friday, March 30, 2012. The merger signals an end to years of conflict and division that had long given Hollywood studios the advantage in negotiations.(AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)

LOS ANGELES (AP) ? The nation's two actors unions have merged, nearly a decade after their last attempt, bringing an end to years of conflict that had given Hollywood studios the advantage in labor negotiations.

The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, the smaller of the two, had tried to merge with the Screen Actors Guild in 1998 and 2003.

Among AFTRA members, 86 percent approved the merger, while 82 percent of SAG members voted in favor.

"In a single day, our future has become brighter," said Ken Howard. The merger made him co-president of the new union, called SAG-AFTRA.

Roberta Reardon, the other co-president, echoed those remarks. "Finally, we are able to speak with one truly unified voice."

The decision to negotiate the prime-time TV and movie contracts separately in 2008 and 2009 caused a rift that allowed the studios to play the unions off each other. That strategic mistake led SAG members to bring in new leaders, who made merging a top priority.

Reardon, who led AFTRA to sign its contract a year earlier than SAG in that round of talks, said Friday's outcome was the best possible from a difficult time.

"We managed to make lemonade out of lemons," she said.

The combined union now has more than 150,000 members. SAG had about 125,000, while AFTRA had about 70,000. About 45,000 actors belonged to both unions and paid dues to both.

In materials supporting the merger, the unions said basic dues would go down for dual card-holders by 20 percent, while they would rise for actors who belonged to just one of the unions.

The combined union aims to keep revenue about $100 million the first year but expects to see savings in subsequent years.

SAG, founded in 1933, and AFTRA, begun in 1952, were created to handle different media. SAG was the union for motion picture work, while AFTRA handled radio and TV. Those distinctions eventually blurred and they became even less important with the rise of cable TV and then the Internet.

Together, the unions can negotiate with Hollywood studios from a position of greater strength. One area of focus is shows that air on pay-TV networks, which are employing increasing numbers of actors in scripted projects, such as "Mad Men" on AMC.

A handful of networks continue to hire non-union talent, including ESPN, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, Fox Sports and Discovery, and the unions are looking to organize those performers.

The unions expect to exercise their joint heft in negotiations on a commercials contract that expires in October. The next prime-time TV and movie contract is up in 2014.

The merger also makes the unions financially stronger. SAG-AFTRA aims to build a reserve fund to enable members to strike for six months if necessary.

The studios' bargaining arm, the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which exploited the groups' rift several years ago, acknowledged the merger in a statement.

"The AMPTP looks forward to a cooperative relationship with the new performers' organization as we endeavor to address the challenges of operating in an industry undergoing transformation," it said.

Iraq says nothing new from Arab summit on Syria

BAGHDAD (AP) ? Iraq's foreign minister says this week's Arab summit in Baghdad will issue a resolution on Syria that offers "nothing new" but will complement international efforts to end the conflict there.

Hoshyar Zebari told a news conference after a meeting of Arab foreign ministers Wednesday that a "marriage" between Arab and international proposals on Syria was likely to force the Syrian regime and its opponents to implement peace plans.

The ministers are offering recommendations on Syria for the Arab heads of state meeting Thursday. These, according to a draft copy obtained by The Associated Press, include calling on President Bashar Assad to implement a cease-fire and let in humanitarian aid. Zebari said the summit will not ask Assad to step down.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

BAGHDAD (AP) ? Arab countries, divided over how to stop Syria's bloodshed, plan to call for the Syrian regime to halt its crackdown on civilians, let in humanitarian groups and free detainees, according to recommendations Wednesday by foreign ministers preparing for a summit this week.

Even before Arab heads of state began their Thursday summit in the Iraqi capital, Syria sharply rejected any measures they take. A Syrian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Jihad Makdessi, said Damascus would "not deal with any initiative" that might come out of the 22-member Arab League.

The rejection reflected Damascus' refusal to work with the League after the pan-Arab body suspended Syria's membership as punishment for the bloody crackdown on protesters demanding the ouster of President Bashar Assad. The U.N. says that over the past year, more than 9,000 people have been killed in the violence.

Arab countries are divided over how aggressively to intervene in Syria's turmoil. Gulf nations, particularly Saudi Arabia and Qatar, are believed to want to start providing weapons to Syria's rebels and even carve out a "safe area" inside the country that the opposition can use as a staging ground.

Iraq, the host of this week's summit, is more cautious. Baghdad's Shiite-dominated government is close to Iran, Assad's closest ally, and is wary of hurting those ties. On Wednesday, Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari told Arab foreign ministers gathered in Baghdad that his country rejects foreign intervention in Syria but supports what he called the aspirations of the Syrian people.

"We stress our full support to the aspirations and legitimate demands of the Syrian people to freedom and democracy and their right to determine their future, choose their leaders and the peaceful transition for power," said Zebari, a Kurd.

Zebari sounded more assertive at a news conference, saying Iraq "could no longer remain neutral" in the face of the violence in Syria, its neighbor.

He also said that the Syria crisis was headed toward "internationalization," maintaining that the Arab League already has done all it could to resolve the conflict.

Assad's regime on Tuesday announced its acceptance of an initiative by U.N. envoy Kofi Annan calling for a cease-fire. However, violence continued with clashes between government forces and armed rebels. Syria's opposition is deeply skeptical that Assad will carry out the terms of the peace plan.

Arab foreign ministers on Wednesday were working out recommendations for the heads of state to approve when they meet here Thursday. According to draft recommendations obtained by The Associated Press, the summit would call on Assad to implement a cease-fire, let in humanitarian aid and release all those detained the past year. It also demands he allow peaceful protests, withdraw army troops from urban centers and implement previous Arab League proposals to end the conflict.

Speaking before Zebari, Libya's foreign minister, Ashour Ben Khayil, was much more forceful about the conflict in Syria.

"We witness the tragedy of our brothers in beloved Syria who have, for more than a year, face a tyrannical and harsh regime. Regrettably, the world stands by, unable to take decisive action," he said. "What we witness every day across Syria is genocide ... against a people whose only sin is that they demanded freedom and dignity."

Libya, where longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi was ousted and killed last year, hosted the last Arab summit, in 2010. Last year's Arab Spring upheavals led to the canceling of the summit, meant to be held in Iraq.

Opposition members accuse Assad of agreeing to Annan's plan to stall for time as his troops make a renewed push to kill off bastions of dissent.

"We are not sure if it's political maneuvering or a sincere act," said Louay Safi, a member of the opposition Syrian National Council. "We have no trust in the current regime. ... We have to see that they have stopped killing civilians."

Annan's plan calls on Damascus to immediately stop troop movements and use of heavy weapons in populated areas and to commit to a daily two-hour halt in fighting to allow humanitarian access and medical evacuations.

Gulf Arab nations, particularly Saudi Arabia and Qatar, have been pushing behind the scenes for more assertive action to end the Syria conflict. Privately, they see little benefit in the Arab League's efforts to reach a peaceful settlement and prefer instead to see a small core of nations pooling together to act on their own.

Among the options they are considering are arming the Syrian rebels and creating a safe haven for the opposition alongside the Turkish-Syrian border to serve as a humanitarian sphere or staging ground for anti-regime forces.

The Sunni-led Gulf countries are hoping that by forcing Assad's fall, they can pull Sunni-majority Syria out of its alliance with Iran and break the belt of Tehran's influence that stretches through Iraq and Syria to the Mediterranean.

A Sunni-ruled Syria would give the U.S.-allied Gulf Arabs a significant victory in their long-running power struggle with non-Arab, mainly Shiite Iran.

In a sign of their cool ties with Baghdad's Shiite leadership, most ? perhaps all ? rulers of the Gulf nations were likely to stay away from the summit and send lower-level officials. Jordan's King Abdullah, also a Sunni, is not attending, sending his prime minister in his place, the government announced.

In a possible breakthrough in Iraq's relations with Bahrain, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki met on the sidelines of Wednesday's meeting with Bahrain's foreign minister, Sheik Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa.

No details emerged from their meeting.

Relations have been tense since Iraqi politicians publicly criticized last year's crackdown by Bahrain's Sunni-led regime against the nation's Shiite majority.

Shiite-ruled Iraq is hosting the summit to show that it has emerged from years of turmoil and American occupation. But a massive security operation in Baghdad mirrors fears that Sunni militants could try and disrupt the meetings.

Central Baghdad was virtually deserted on Wednesday, with hundreds of heavily armed troops and policemen deployed in full combat gear. The summit venue is a palace once used by Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and is located inside the "Green Zone," a highly secure area on the west bank of the Tigris River where the Iraqi prime minister's office and the U.S. and the British embassies are also located.

"Iraq does not search for a role or seek a role," Zebari said in defense of the $500 million cost of preparing for the Arab summit. "Iraq's history is carved in history."

Jeep Debuts Two Ultra-Manly Retro Concept Trucks

Jeep J-12 Concept at Chrysler Tech Center in Auburn Hills

Jeep drove into its gene pool at full speed ahead of the upcoming Easter Jeep Safari,?showing two concepts inspired by products from the company's early years. The first, and most tame, is the Jeep J-12 Concept, it's basically a heavily modified version of the Jeep Wrangler pickup kit you can buy now. The kit encloses the cabin and adds a small cargo box to a Wrangler, but the J-12 Concept goes further. In addition to the obvious styling updates to reflect iconic Kaiser pickups, the rear overhang has been stretched by a foot, allowing for a full 6' cargo box and under-floor storage for the spare tire. The old-school theme continues inside, with body-color details and a bench seat finished in a kitchy plaid pattern.?During the development process?Jeep staff called it the?OMT: Old man truck. That's okay with us though, it's cool.

Jeep Mighty FC at the Chrysler Tech Center in Auburn Hills, Michigan

The other concept is the one everybody will be talking about out on the trails of Moab during the Safari. The Jeep Mighty FC Concept digs up the Forward Control truck idea from the company's days under Willy's. This monster started off as a two-door Wrangler in December, now it's been chopped up, lengthened, lifted, and totally re-imagined. The cabin's nose was lopped off, the back of the Wrangler pickup kit encloses the rear, and all-new doors were fabricated along with a long bed which conceals the spare tire, fuel tank, and suspension pieces, there's a little bit of storage along the top side of it. The drivetrain is stock Wrangler - 3.6- liter Pentastar V6 with about 285 hp, but now it's under the seats as is the front axle. That axle's also been modified with portal axle ends, a kit from Mopar which bolts to the end of a stock solid axle and offset's the wheels from the center of the axle. The result - more ground clearance with a less extreme suspension. Giant 39" tires and a huge heavy duty bumper with a winch finish out the look. This thing isn't just a pretty face either, the Jeep crew plans to wheel it in the off-road playgrounds of Utah in April so they've fitted it with a roll cage just in case coming down hills doesn't go well for the nose-heavy behemouth.

APS Receives EPA's Highest Honor: ENERGY ... - AZ Venture Capital

Third straight year for the utility

?Arizona Public Service Company?s customer programs continue to receive national recognition. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), for the third straight year, awarded the Arizona utility an ENERGY STAR Sustained Excellence Award for its continued leadership in protecting the environment through energy efficiency.

From the 20,000 participating organizations in the ENERGY STAR program, only a select few are given a Sustained Excellence Award. According to the EPA, to receive the award, organizations must exhibit outstanding leadership in the Agency?s ENERGY STAR program year after year. This year, APS received the award for its ENERGY STAR Homes and Home Performance with ENERGY STAR programs.

The APS ENERGY STAR Homes program encourages builders to construct homes that meet or exceed stringent EPA efficiency standards, resulting in homes that are at least 20 percent more efficient than standard homes. Today, 40 builders across Arizona ? including the 20 largest in APS?s service territory ? are participating in the program.

The Home Performance with ENERGY STAR program helps customers improve the comfort, efficiency and safety of their homes by lowering the cost of a standard home energy audit. Through the program, customers pay $99 instead of the standard $400 cost. In 2011, 4,300 customers had their ductwork and windows evaluated for leaks, home air-conditioning units inspected and insulation measured.

?We take pride in the EPA?s continued recognition of our work to help our customers manage their energy bills,? said Tammy McLeod, APS Vice President and Chief Customer Officer. ?Today, APS looks at energy efficiency as a way to meet the increased electricity needs of customers ? much in the same way we look at building a new solar, natural gas or other power plant.?

APS?s accomplishment was recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., on March 15.

?APS and all our ENERGY STAR award winners are helping Americans find cost-effective ways to save energy in everything we do, which is good for our climate, our health and our future,? said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson.

Over the past 20 years, American families and businesses have saved nearly $230 billion on utility bills and prevented greenhouse gas emissions equal to those from more than 350 million vehicles with help from ENERGY STAR.

APS, Arizona?s largest and longest-serving electricity utility, serves more than 1.1 million customers in 11 of the state?s 15 counties. With headquarters in Phoenix, APS is the principal subsidiary of Pinnacle West Capital Corp. (NYSE: PNW).

Video may help answer whether French gunman worked alone

Caroline Blumberg / EPA

French police investigators on Thursday analyze the scene outside the building where a 32-hour long standoff with gunman Mohamed Merah, took place in Toulouse, France.

By msnbc.com staff and news services

TOULOUSE, France -- French police are examining video equipment and explosives recovered from Islamist extremist Mohamed Merah?s apartment to determine if the suspect in the killing of three children and four adults had any accomplices.

Merah, 23, died Thursday as he scrambled out of a ground-floor window during a gunbattle with elite police commandos. A police sniper shot him in the head, ending a 32-hour standoff at his Toulouse apartment, police said.

In contact with authorities during the standoff, he admitted that in three attacks he killed three Jewish children, a rabbi and three French paratroopers, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said.

France 2 via AP

Mohamed Merah, the suspect in the killing of 3 paratroopers, 3 children and a rabbi in France.

"A killer wanted, according to his own words, to bring France to its knees by sowing hatred and terror. He has been neutralized," President Nicolas Sarkozy, who is running for re-election next month, told a campaign rally in the eastern city of Strasbourg.

In a TV address, Sarkozy announced an investigation into whether Merah had accomplices and the possibilities of Islamist indoctrination practices in prison.

"Our Muslim compatriots have nothing to do with the crazy actions of a terrorist," Sarkozy said. "We should not embark on any stigmatization."

Jewish school slayings suspect dies in raid, officials say

Merah, a Frenchman of Algerian origin, was on a "no fly" list maintained by U.S. authorities, two American officials told The Associated Press. The officials would not disclose precisely when Merah was placed on the U.S. watch list.

U.S. and French authorities said Merah had traveled to Afghanistan around 2010 to obtain training from Islamic militants. He had spent time with militants along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border before being captured and returned to France.

At some point after his capture, two other U.S. officials said, Merah was held in custody by U.S. forces in Afghanistan. Precise details of how and when this occurred and what happened to him next are still unclear.

In Toulouse, police recovered a bag containing a GoPro video camera that Merah had used round his neck to film the killings.

Email trail led cops to suspect in Jewish school slayings

Islamic extremist Mohamed Merah, who bragged about killing seven people to punish France, jumped from a window after a French SWAT team burst into the apartment where he had been cornered for more than a day. NBC's Brian Williams reports.

Molins indicated Merah posted clips online. Molins described videos recovered from Merah's apartment showing the attacks, the BBC reported.

"These films are extremely explicit, as we were able to verify yesterday, in which evidently we see him during his encounter with a soldier who he shot twice, saying to him: 'You kill my brothers, I kill you'," Molins said. "Then we also see him killing the soldiers in Montauban in an extremely violent scene, fleeing on his scooter whilst shouting 'Allahu akbar' [God is great]."

Road to Mohamed Merah's radicalization goes through Afghanistan?

The videos and recordings of all of Merah's conversations with negotiators during the siege?will?be used in a?forthcoming inquiry, Molins said.

Forensics officers Thursday investigate the building where self-professed al-Qaida militant Mohamed Merah, 23, was living on the first floor (window at far-right) in Toulouse, southwestern France.

A militant Islamist group called Jund al-Khilafah (Soldiers of the Caliphate) claimed responsibility for Merah's killings, according to a statement posted on an internet forum used by Islamists. It named the assailant as Yousef al-Ferensi and said his attack "shook the foundations of the Zio-Crusaderdom."

In Israel, tears and defiance at French shooting victims' burial

"Israel's crimes against our people in the blessed land of Palestine, especially in Gaza, will not go unpunished," said the group, which was previously unknown until it took credit in November for two explosions in a western Khazakh oil city.

The interior ministry declined to comment specifically on the statement but said there was no evidence Merah belonged formally to any group.

During the standoff, authorities said, Merah had told negotiators that he was trained by al-Qaida in Pakistan and killed three paratroopers last week and four people at a Jewish school on Monday to avenge the deaths of Palestinian children and because of French army involvement in Afghanistan.

This article includes reporting by Reuters, The Associated Press and msnbc.com staff.

The alleged gunman in a series of deadly shootings in France, including one at a Jewish school near Toulouse, is dead after jumping from the apartment where he was hold up for 32 hours.? NBC's Jim Maceda reports.
