A 49-year-old registered nurse has been charged with eight counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of elderly nursing home residents in the Woodstock and London — over a seven-year period.  All of the victims were residents  in the Woodstock and London.

Police said Elizabeth Tracey Mae Wettlaufer allegedly used drugs to end the lives of the eight residents. Police would not say if nursing home records showed that drugs had gone missing.

The victims were administered a drug. We are not in a position to comment on the specifics it forms part of the evidence that is now before the courts," Ontario Provincial Police detective Dave Truax said.

Truax would only say that a number of drugs were stored and accessible in the nursing homes where the suspect worked.

Ontario Health Minister Eric Hoskins called the charges "horrific allegations" and said the safety and security of those in long-term care homes are his top priority.  "No resident of long-term housing needs to be concerned about their safety as a result of this investigation," Hoskins said.

The U.S. stated that the intent was to remove "a regime that developed and used weapons of mass destruction, that harbored and supported terrorists, committed outrageous human rights abuses, and defied the just demands of the United Nations and the world."

In the lead-up to the invasion, the U.S. and UK emphasized the argument that Saddam Hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction and that he thus presented a threat to his neighbors and to the world community.  .

The resolution strengthened the mandate of the UN (UNMOVIC) and (IAEA), giving them authority to go anywhere, at any time and talk to anyone in order to verify Iraq's disarmament."

Throughout late 2001, 2002, and early 2003, the Bush Administration worked to build a case for invading Iraq, culminating in then Secretary of State Colin Powell's February 2003 address to the Security Council.  Evidence linking Hussein and Al-Qaeda was discredited by multiple U.S. intelligence agencies.

Katie McLaughlin divorced Fogle after he pleaded guilty to federal charges of child pornography and having sex with minors.

She alleges in the suit that she and her children suffered emotional distress because Fogle's behavior did not become publicly known before she married him in 2010.

"A responsible corporation would take immediate action when hearing of this behavior, even if it was only allegations," she charges in the suit. "Subway failed every test of corporate responsibility in its response to each of these complaints."

The suit contends that Subway believed that sustaining and expanding its market share, profitability and growth depended on Jared's reputation. "Subway's ambition for sales and growth came at the expense of Katie [and her children]," it says.

McLaughlin said it was "beyond comprehension" to find out that her husband was a child predator, and to also learn that executives had been told of his behavior and did not act. With her voice breaking, she apologized to Fogle's victims and said she was filing the suit to get answers about what Subway knew and when its executives knew it. Will see?

Swiss Frank/Euro
Swiss National Bank stunned the markets by scrapping its three-year old cap of 1.20 Swiss francs per euro. The central bank said the franc was now out of the period of “exceptional overvaluation” during which the minimum exchange rate had been introduced.

The SNB’s latest move unleashed new volatility among bonds and currencies around the world. SNB’s abandoning of the cap prompted a collapse of as much as 30% in the euro versus the franc – the biggest single-day move in a developed market that traders could recall. One Franc Equals Euro in less than a week.

Dollar/Yen
With the prime minister's program, dubbed Abenomics.
A large part of the problem can be seen in the sharply lower value of the yen. Even though the currency's fall should eventually help boost exports as Japanese goods become more competitive overseas, it also immediately raises the price of imports.

Dollar/Canadian Dollar
The number of Canadians crossing the border at B.C. points of entry dropped sharply in the past year as the value of the Canadian dollar fell relative to the U.S. greenback.
In December 2013, when the loonie was trading at 94 cents US, 293,950 Canadians crossed the Douglas (Peace Arch) border crossing on their way back from the U.S.
The current value is 1.2 Canadian dollar to the US dollar.

Dollar/ Euro
The Euro sank to a more than 11-year low against the dollar and a three-month low against the yen after the European Central Bank launched a landmark bond-buying program that will pump hundreds of billions into a sagging euro zone economy.

"The ECB has obviously taken decisive action,'' said Dean Popplewell, chief currency strategist at OANDA in Toronto. "What we are seeing is some individuals actually adding to their short positions at these levels.''   [2014]
