Netherlands 47% Germany 43% Uruguay 7% Spain 3% Because we all know Spain will get crushed like a bug against Germany, That's pretty much guaranteed. The Netherlands and Uruguay game will be closer (But Netherlands are still a huge favorite) Thats why spain has a less chance of winning then uruguay

need help for an english test?

Except over a glass of ruby Tannat wine or a sizzling tenderloin, most people pay little mind to Uruguay. But just mention this demure South American nation to the tobacco industry and watch the smoke billow. A long-burning row between the government in Montevideo and cigarette maker Philip Morris is slowly turning into the mother of asymmetric battles. Earlier this year, little Uruguay (68,000 square miles, half again the size of Cuba), with a population of 3.5 million and a GDP of $44 billion, tightened the already drastic restrictions on local sales of cigarettes. The international tobacco colossus, with a market capitalization of $107 billion and legions of high-priced lawyers and lobbyists from Bern to the Washington Beltway, struck back, filing a complaint with the World Bank’s International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes. The battlefield is minuscule, the size of a pack of smokes. But the case is starting rows over national sovereignty, free trade, and public health that show little sign of dissipating any time soon. Through it all, Uruguay has stood firm, showing it can go toe to toe with giants. By muscle alone, the multinational should have the upper hand or at least the ability to snarl the authorities in Montevideo in a drawnout and costly lawsuit. But a win over a diminutive adversary could cost Big Tobacco dearly, tarring its reputation and global brand. And that is where this Latin Lilliput is showing its poise. President José Mujica, who took office in March, recently ordered Philip Morris, maker of Marlboro, to cover at least 80 percent of each pack of smokes with grisly images of the perils of the habit. One shows a grotesquely disfigured baby, another a haggard woman languishing on a hospital bed, while a third is a closeup of mouth cancer. The company protested, not on grounds of dubious taste but that the obligatory gallery of horrors partially covered the company logo, amounting to an undue expropriation of profits without compensation, and so violating Uruguay’s free-trade pact with Switzerland, Philip Morris’s operational headquarters. Both sides are digging in, but this is not a revolt of rancorous Third-World lefties eager to stick a thumb in the eye of the transnational empire. For its defense, Uruguay has amassed world-weight allies, including the health ministers of 171 nations, the Pan American Health Organization, and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. A rabid anti-smoker, the mayor has donated thousands of dollars from his Bloomberg Philanthropies and legal aid to Uruguay, whose “leaders did the right thing.” It’s an odd alliance. President Mujica, a one-time gun-toting guerrilla, dedicated much of his previous political existence railing at über-capitalists like Bloomberg. Today, at age 75 and in charge of a nation, he’s turned into a militant pragmatist, dedicated to parsimony and fighting the bureaucratic monster. Since taking office in March, he has slashed spending, faced down a general strike, and asked Congress to enact a sweeping reform of the oversized state. Most recently, he had to order government employees to work at least six hours a day, and was rewarded by a lawsuit. “Anything you do in this country is like going through labor pains,” he recently complained. What’s impressive is how much Uruguay has already done. A wedge of land created by European colonial powers as a buffer between giants, this nation seemed destined to be a backwater. Instead, successive governments plowed money into education, health, and infrastructure, turning Uruguay into a Latin Singapore or Hong Kong, says Walter Molano of BCP Securities. It breezed through the Great Recession (growing 2.9 percent in 2009) and its GDP is expanding at 7.8 percent a year, more than three times the average of the past half-century. It was recently named the most prosperous nation in Latin America, according to the London-based Legatum Institute, which ranks nations by variables that include economic fundamentals, public health, education, and even general happiness. Part of this success owes to Uruguayan society’s ability to adapt to historic circumstances, and the good sense to preserve policies that work, regardless of what party or ideological banner is in power. The other part i Hi everyone, thanks for helping me. Questions: why is it surprising to hear that mujica is the ally of someone like bloomberg? Why is it the "mother of asymmetric battles"? Does the autor believe that Uruguay actually has a chance against Big Tobacco? Why does Margolis talk about the history of Uruguay? What point is he trying to make? Why is this seemingly small case important for the tobacco industry? Thanks a lot, and of course i just want to have indications. :D

Going to South America in November for 3 months?

With boyfriend (age 26,27). We plan to spend 1 of the 3 months in Buenos Aires in an apartment, but keep debating on how we should spend our last 2 months after that. We want to see Iguazu Falls, wine country (maybe) and other things nearby, but not sure what we have time for (Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Uruguay?). Not interested in going north (Columbia, Ecuador, Venezuela). Also, we will be flying back out of BA so we can't travel too far unless we take flights within the continent. I'm traveling with a 40L backpack, so lots of flexibility for travel. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm into people watching/sitting outside at a cafe/outdoorsy stuff. Not much for spending hours in a museum or shopping. Love to dance, see live music, and eat!
