Las Malvinas, as they are known in Argentina, lie 300 miles off the Argentine coast and were the scene of the Argentina-Britain Falklands War in early 1982.

		<description><![CDATA[A Reuters analysis, &#8220;In debt row, hints of emerging-economy crisis&#8221;, highlights the point that the United States&#8217; current debt ceiling stalemate, brought on by highly factionalized political camps, is akin to crises faced by emerging economies. The analysis itself is worth a read, although one quote, from Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, stands out:

The beer derives its name from the town where the beer was founded back in the 19th century by a German immigrant named Otto Bemberg.

The Economist magazine published an interesting article this week about the rise of vegetarianism in a nation known internationally for its love of meat.

Along with cattle ranchers scattered across Argentina's vast territory, Argentina's soy farmers are one of the main driving forces behind the strength and reputation of the Argentine economy, which is known worldwide for its famous beef, and less commonly known as the worlds third largest soybean exporter.
