Celebrity Cars
Enrique Iglesias' Mercedes SLS: For Sale on AutoTrader
For sale right now on AutoTrader is a 2011 Mercedes SLS AMG that once belonged to singing legend Enrique Iglesias.
The car is listed for sale out of Formula 1 Supercars in Miami, Fla. According to Jorge Bouza, a vice president at Formula 1, the dealership has been close with the Iglesias family for years and has sold more than one of the Latin star's former rides.
Iglesias is one of the most successful recording artists around. His self-titled first album sold over a million copies in its first three months alone. His first English-language record achieved gold or platinum status in 32 different countries. His most recent album, Euphoria, went double platinum in the U.S. and has sold more than 360,000 copies worldwide.
Given the singer's commercial success, it's no surprise to see that one of Mercedes' most expensive vehicles called the Iglesias garage home.
The SLS is the company's top-to-the-line sports car. Its svelte bodywork and gullwing doors are a throwback to the iconic 300SL of the 1960s. Under the car's long aluminum hood sits a 6.2-liter, 563-horsepower V8 engine that produces enough power to launch the SLS from 0-60 mph in just 3.6 seconds and on to a top speed of just under 200 mph.
In spite of the SLS's mind-numbing performance, the Latin pop star seems to have rarely driven it. With less than 1,000 miles on the odometer, you could debate if the hand-built AMG engine has even been broken in yet.
The SLS coupe has a starting MSRP of $189,600. Mercedes only sold 722 SLS super cars in 2011 and that kind of rarity often means buyers have to pay above the asking price.
The Iglesias car is listed at $199,800, which compares pretty well with other SLS models currently for sale on AutoTrader.com -- and none of those cars can boast this car's celebrity past.

Experiment participants wanted.
If anyone is interested in participating, Walt Wright and I have put together an experiment we would like to have people try.
Checkerboarding vs. Opening the Brood Nest combined with Checkerboarding vs. Neither
Will bees given empty frames in the brood nest shift to "establishment" mode and make white wax well before the normal time and build up more because of more brood nest expansion and tend to not swarm. Will hives produce more/less/as much as when "Checkerboarded".
It would be better if you read Walts manuscript, but Ill give a synopsis of the idea of checkerboarding here. Remember this is an oversimplification.
For a bee colony:
o Survival is the primary motivation
__o Survival of the existing colony takes priority.
____o Bees will not do a reproductive swarm if they perceive it to jeopardize survival of the existing colony.
__o Survival of the species runs a close second.
____o Generation of a reproductive swarm is the secondary objective of every over-wintered colony.
______o The over-wintered colony expands the brood volume during the build-up by consumption of honey.
________o When the colony has expanded the brood nest to the amount of reserve that they consider appropriate, they are now able to move into the swarm preparation phase.
__________o The first activity of swarm preparation is to reduce the brood volume by providing additional stores. As brood emerges, selected cells are filled with nectar or pollen.
__________o Alternating empty drawn combs above the brood nest "fools" the bees into thinking they don't have enough stores yet for swarming and causes them to expand the brood nest, giving both a bigger field force and avoiding reproductive swarming.
To put some of this another way, the colony goes through different goals at different times.
A new swarm starts out with the goal of getting established. They draw a lot of comb and try to expand the brood nest as much as possible to get established and then they go into winter preparation, which is trying to store sufficient stores for the winter. If they accomplish all of this and get over crowded they might cast a swarm to relieve the population problem.
The next year the hive will start out with the goal of reaching a safe position to cast a reproductive swarm. That means the population has to build up enough to afford to lose that many bees and the stores have to be high enough for them to lose that many foragers. Then they go into swarm preparation mode and start backfilling the brood nest. At some point, which Walt calls the Reproductive swarm cut-off, they decide they will or won't swarm.
The goal of Checkboarding is to keep them in the build-up phase until after Reproductive swarm cut-off by making them think they don't have enough stores and giving the brood nest room to expand.
If you look at your bees and your blooms and your climate, this Reproductive cut-off is usually the peak of the apple blossoms or a week after the apples START to bloom. The time to do Checkboarding is 9 weeks before that. That's about when the Elm blooms or four weeks before the Maples bloom or five weeks before the Redbud blooms or eight weeks before the apples start blooming or ten weeks before the black locust starts blooming. Hopefully you have some idea when one of those blooms in your location. NOTE: in theory these are all ways of pinpointing the same stage of vegatative development, they are just different refernce points to figure it out for your location, I'm just listing all the different blooms in case you know when one of them is to calculate from.
At that time (9 weeks before Reproductive cut-off/the peak of the apple blossoms) you checkerboard. You put alternating frames of capped honey and empty drawn comb above the brood nest.
The principles are similar to Checkerboarding except by putting empty frames (not frames with foundation, but frames with either starter strips or comb guides or nothing) in the brood nest, to shift the colony to establishment mode and drawing wax much earlier and prevent backfilling of the brood nest. This causes the brood nest to expand and it controls swarming. To make room for the empty frames you should move frames on the outside of the brood box up to the next box or down or out altogether (depending on if your equipment is all the same size frames) and move the brood combs to the sides and put the empty frames between two frames of brood. To prevent chilling brood, make sure that you have enough bees to quickly fill the gap you've left with festooning bees before you insert the frame. This will ensure there are enough bees to manage the empty space. If there are not enough bees for this, then postpone for another week or two. For the sake of the experiment, it would be good to check the brood nest every couple of weeks and add more frames if the brood nest starts to recede or if there are enough bees to handle the extra space. If you want maximum yields this should probably stop about two weeks before the main flow (about four weeks after apple bloom starts and about the time Black Locust starts to bloom). If the box is brood from one side to the other, three frames of brood can be moved up into the next box to expand the brood nest up and fill in those gaps with alternating empty frames. If you get frames of drone brood (which you most often will for the first couple of frames) move them to the outside edge of the brood nest when you find them and put more empty frames in their place. Anytime you dont see enough bees to fill the gaps in the brood nest, wait until they have built up more. Some of this timing may vary by race as well as climate, so try to go with the bees.
Walt and I discussed this at length and concluded we think the best time to try this right after the elm bloom or right at the Maple bloom or 2 weeks before the Redbud bloom or two weeks or four weeks before the apple bloom or 6 weeks before the black Locust bloom. NOTE: in theory these are all the same point of seasonal development, I'm just listing all the different blooms in case you know when one of them is to calculate from. I do notice that going by Walts chart (in the manuscript) Im usually about a month behind him. But that seems to be a little more than that in some places. For instance, the Locust bloom here was mid May last year and six weeks before that would be the first of April. Yet at the first of April Im past the elm and maple blooms. Here, the blooms at the first of April are wild plums and other early fruit trees. You might just look for early fruit trees blooming in your area to key on for opening up the brood nest. Before that there probably isn't any flow coming in to make wax from.
The other up side to Opening the Brood Nest is the production of natural cell sized comb. If you are trying to regress youll get this a side benefit.

San Joaquin County homes remain relatively affordable despite a sharp increase in home prices and higher mortgage interest rates, RealtyTrac is reporting today.
San Joaquin County homes remain relatively affordable despite a sharp increase in home prices and higher mortgage interest rates, RealtyTrac is reporting today.
The Irvine-based real estate data firm said the median price - half of all prices were higher and half lower - of San Joaquin County homes in the fourth quarter topped $190,000, up 26 percent from the more than $151,000 in the last three months of 2012. Together with higher mortgage and other costs, it pushed the average monthly payment to $906, up 38 percent from the year earlier.
That means a home buyer needed nearly $43,500 in annual income to qualify for a loan, compared with nearly $31,400 at the end of 2012. Still, housing remains affordable to most families in a county where the median household income is more than $50,700, RealtyTrac said.
"The takeaway for someone in San Joaquin County (is) homes are becoming less affordable very quickly, but they are still more affordable than in other parts of California or other parts of the country," RealtyTrac Vice President Daren Blomquist said.
"If you have a job and plan to stay in San Joaquin County for more than five years, it's probably a good decision to buy at this point, because you will pay more if you are renting, and home prices are still relatively affordable."
RealtyTrac also reported the San Joaquin County current fair market rent for a three-bedroom home is $1,370 a month.
Some of the highest housing prices in the nation - and thus the counties with the highest minimum qualifying incomes for a median-priced home - were in the Bay Area, Realty-Trac reported.
Topping the list was San Francisco County, at $228,569 a year in household income; Marin County, $177,922; and San Mateo County, $170,284. No. 4 nationwide was Arlington County, Va., at $158,474 in annual household income, followed by Santa Clara County at $149,389.
Rising prices and declining affordability were the general rule nationwide.
On average in the 325 U.S. counties included in the analysis, the estimated monthly house payment for a median-priced three-bedroom home purchased in the fourth quarter - including mortgage, insurance, taxes and maintenance, and subtracting the estimated income tax benefit - increased an average of 21 percent from the year before.
The higher payments were due to an average 10 percent rise in median home prices combined with a 33 percent increase in the interest rate for an average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage
Investors and other cash buyers whose home-buying practices are not constrained by personal income are contributing to the affordability issue, Blomquist said.
"The monthly cost of owning a home is still less than renting in the majority of markets, but the cost of financed homeownership is becoming dangerously disconnected with still-stagnant median incomes," he said.

The 2014 Kenda AMA National Enduro Series kicks off this Sunday, March 2nd, in Pelion, South Carolina, with round one of its 10-race schedule, and all signs point to this year's series as having the all makings of a blockbuster season.
The first race of the year is always exciting since that's where we find out who did their homework during the off-season and who didn't. It's a safe bet that defending series champ Charlie Mullins will be fit and ready for the series opener. As the winner of last year's championship, Mullins will be the first pro on the course from row 21, which means he'll be breaking in the trail – an advantage for some, and a disadvantage for others.
Mullins, a two-time national enduro champ and one of America's top off-road racers, will once again head up the mighty KTM factory team effort, which will also feature 2012 champ Stu Baylor and eight-time champ Mike Lafferty. After 20 years of competition, Lafferty will be retiring at the end of the year, so he'll be making his farewell appearance during the 2014 season. Baylor grew up in South Carolina and he's a great sand rider so he'll be one of the favorites this weekend. He's also starting from row 36, which will give him the advantage of knowing the scores of the riders on the earlier rows.
Husqvarna will also be making a big push in this year's series, having recently been acquired by KTM. Four-time champ Russell Bobbitt will join Andrew DeLong as the team's top enduro riders, while EnduroCross star Mike Brown will make a few national enduro appearances at select events. Bobbitt has a great track record at the Sandlapper, having won in 2011, and should be another one of the riders to watch.
The Beta factory will be making a big venture into the series, having signed Cory Buttrick to team with series regular Justin Sode. Buttrick is a former national winner and is making his return to the series after missing two years due to injury and illness.
Among the satellite teams trying the break the "factory" stranglehold is AirGroup Racing, who signed young Ryder Lafferty to complement last year's series runner-up Nick Fahringer. Fahringer is one of the most consistent riders on the circuit, as well as being one of the most flamboyant, two attributes that don't normally go together. The team is mounted on Husqvarna this year and will be running Kenda tires.
Yamaha will be represented well by Randy Hawkin's Am Pro Yamaha team and for 2014 Hawkins has signed Brad Bakken to ride the all-new YZ250F.
Meanwhile, former Am Pro rider Jesse Groemm has switched to Shane Watt's Dirt Wise KTM team where he'll be riding a two-stroke. Australian off-roader Rory Mead will also join Groemm on the Dirt Wise team.
Suzuki makes a highly anticipated return to the series with support from Obermeyer Suzuki and former Husky rider Nick Davis will handle the riding chores.
Finally, KR4 Performance will be bringing its "Arrive-n-Ride" program to the series opener and every round thereafter with Colorado's Ian Blythe expected to do well in the Pro division.
Hosted by the Columbia Enduro Riders, this year marks the 39th running of the Sandlapper Enduro, named for its tight sandy trails through the pine trees, the event is known for its spectacular trail and good traction.

Do not know yet, but will let you know for sure next time I am in your neighborhood :)
So, when you're in the area, then!
That's a shame. One would think there are lots of tennis players in your area... I would love to hit some balls with you if I lived in your area.
Thank you, Takaya. I appreciate it. I'm having trouble finding anyone to play tennis with on this site, however!
A great picture.

text: It is true, Reno can look like a ghost town on a weekday. But if you don't like crowds and enjoy cheaper prices, Reno is the place to go. I got a slot card at Silver Legacy, only played for a short time and they have been sending me emails for a free room. The customer service at SL is top notch. True, Vegas has a lot more glitz, but if you just want to gamble and ski, Reno offers value. Plus the summer tempatures are much more bareable in Reno, with highs around 90, not the 110 you get in Vegas.

- Air Guides™
We print Air Guides on all of our air-sprung forks. Maybe not a technological feat, but it will help you set up your suspension in seconds instead of minutes. And more time on your bike equals more chances to earn King of the Mountain on your favorite trail. Maybe they are a technological feat.
With revolutionary advancements in bicycle componentry, like SRAM's XX1, X01 and X1 drivetrains, mountain bike designers have been given almost limitless freedom to focus solely on the performance of the bike. Each advancement demands that the entire package works flawlessly. Aggressive trail and enduro riders have been increasingly enjoying the benefits of larger wheels, but many still view 27.5" and 29" wheels as a possible weak link. Which is why SRAM has developed an open standard with Boost™ compatible components for SRAM drivetrain, hubs and RockShox forks.
- Bottomless Tokens
Bottomless Tokens allow riders to easily custom tune their RockShox fork's air-spring performance to best match their own riding style and suspension preference. Adding the easy-to-install Bottomless Tokens changes the air-spring curve to resist bottom-out after a big hit, giving aggressive riders the power to attack the trail harder. Removing Bottomless Tokens makes the air-spring curve more linear, enhancing suspension feel for certain types of terrain or trail condition and ensuring riders who are less front-end aggressive benefit from 100 percent of their fork's travel.
- Black bottomless tokens are compatible with the following Solo Air forks: RS-1 SID, Reba, Bluto, Revelation.
- Grey bottomless tokens are compatible with the following Solo Air forks: Pike, Lyrik, Yari, Pike DJ, BoXXer.
- Dark red bottomless tokens are compatible with the following Dual Position Air forks: Pike, Lyrik, Yari.
- DebonAir
It's ok to be soft. DebonAir is not ashamed to give way under the weakest push. In fact, it makes Monarch and Monarch Plus shocks plusher than ever, right from the start. It might seem a weakness, until you take DebonAir to the trail. The connection between your bike and the terrain will be seamless, as your DebonAir equipped shock absorbs every little hit without any harsh feeling on your body. A shock so soft, you can push way harder.
- Lower force levels to move the shock into its travel 1st 1/3 of travel is what riders are most sensitive to
- No chop on initial hit. Better traction; rear wheel stays on the ground reacting to small bumps
- Maxle Stealth
Who knew we could make a thru axle disappear? The new Maxle Stealth offers a light, low profile alternative to Maxle Lite and Maxle Ultimate.
- Maxle Ultimate
Basic things like axles are often the easiest to overlook. Put one hand on the Maxle Ultimate, though, and you'll be glad we paid serious attention to the finer details. Because one hand is all it takes to remove or install the Maxle Ultimate. And lever-placement personalization is accomplished completely without the use of tools. Available for both front and rear, Maxle Ultimate is the easiest-to-operate axle system in the world. No tools, no worries, so you can concentrate on the trail ahead.
- OneLoc
The new OneLoc remote provides total control over your suspension at your fingertips.The increased leverage at the bar, translate in a smoother and easier actuation. Its countless mounting options (left and right, below or above the bar, tall or standard clamp) make it an ideal companion for SRAM's drivetrain, brakes and RockShox's Reverb remote.
- Rapid Recovery™
Who doesn't want more available wheel travel for successive hits? The Rapid Recovery System allows the shock to recovery faster between consecutive bumps, letting the wheel track the ground with greater precision. This more active suspension system, doesn't pack up and enables the bike to ride in a higher and softer part of the spring rate. Rapid Recovery gives the rider access to more available wheel travel, bump after bump, to achieve a smoother and more controlled ride.
- Sag Gradients™
Don't set your sag correctly, and you might as well be hopping onto someone else's bike. But why bust out plastic clips or rulers to keep your suspension fine-tuned? Our sag gradients are printed right on our fork's upper tubes and shock damper bodies making perfect suspension setup easy and accurate. So give mom back her plastic clip and ruler.
- Torque Caps
Torque Caps make the bond between hub and fork dropout stronger, with an increased surface area connecting the two. This creates a stronger, stiffer interface, giving you a more responsive front wheel and more control. So you concentrate on the most important connection, the one between your bike and the trail.

33rd Anniversary - 1968
Happy Anniversary
It was 33 years ago when President Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act.
(For identification of participants, click here.)
THE LOCALE WAS the DHEW auditorium. The day August 14, 1968. The occasion, the 33d anniversary of the signing of the original Social Security Act.
The U.S. Marine Band played a rousing march; it should have been Auld Lang Syne. For this was the day that old friendships were renewed; the ORS-OA-OPEP-OI Committee had put the finishing touches on arrangements; Robert Robinson, Chief of Publications, ORS, had his last minute instructions from the Office of the Secretary. This was the day for people with long associations with social security to get together, and remember.
On the stage were: Arthur Altmeyer, the first Commissioner for Social Security; Wilbur Cohen, Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare; Willard Wirtz, Secretary of Labor; Robert Ball, Commissioner of Social Security; William Mitchell, former Social Security Commissioner; George Bigge, a member of the Social Security Board from 1936 to 1946; and Mary Switzer, Administrator of the Social and Rehabilitation Service, HEW.
In the audience were the rest of the "family," the present Executive Staff, long-time employees who are still with us, and many who worked with the program during its formative years. Commissioner Ball said that the statisticians had estimated that the auditorium held 15,033 man-years of work in the cause of social security, and when he asked for everyone who worked with the program in 1937 or earlier to stand, you knew the statisticians must be correct--over half of the audience rose to its feet.
Then came the individual introductions. It sounded like a listing from the "Who's Who in Social Security." There was Frank Bane, John Corson, I. S. Falk, Nelson Cruikshank, Beth and Karl de Schweinitz, Loula Dunn, Katherine Ellickson, Bill Haber, Maurice Mulliner, Fedele Fauri, Lavinia Engle, Leonard Lesser, Merton Bernstein, Victor Christgau, Joe Fay, Bert Seidman, Stanley Ruttenberg, Gladys Webburk, Bob Goodman, Roy Wynkoop, Oscar Pogge, Sarah Napier. Kay Johnson, Gladys Harrison, Olga Halsey, and many others.
Commissioner Ball provided an instant update to the audience, when he said that the 30 million original participants in the program had grown to over 90 million, and that every 33 seconds a new beneficiary was added to the beneficiary rolls, which now exceed 24 million. He said that the face value of the survivors part of social security is in the neighborhood of $950 billion. "Today we are keeping 10 million people out of poverty," he said. Attendees received preprints of the Social Security Bulletin, with more program information in comprehensive articles by Secretary Cohen, Commissioner Ball, and Assistant Commissioner, ORS, Merriam.
Flashing back to the beginnings provided a memorable contrast for the audience as they watched a rerun of the news film taken as President Roosevelt signed the Act. His voice, so familiar to the audience, rang through the auditorium, as he said, "This law represents a cornerstone in a structure which is being built, but is by no means complete, a structure intended to lessen the force of possible future depressions, to act as a protection to future administrations of the Government against the necessity of going deeply into debt to furnish relief to the needy, a law to flatten out the peaks and valleys of deflation and inflation--in other words, a law that will take care of human needs and at the same time provide for the United States an economic structure of vastly greater soundness."
Labor Secretary Wirtz then showed the close relationship his department has had with HEW through the years in sharing the same national problems of economic security. Declaring a close interest in our program, Secretary Wirtz said that the perennial "job when you can work, and a benefit when you can't" has been a good motto, especially for his involvement in an unemployment program. He cited the 137 million who have received $44.5 billion in unemployment compensation since 1936.
Quoting from Arthur Altmeyer, as he looked into the future of social security, Mr. Wirtz also saw it "always as a goal, never a finished thing, because human aspirations are infinitely expandable--just as human nature is infinitely perfectible."
Mr. Wirtz remarked that each generation uses with wisdom the tools available . . . There is no attainment . . . we are always building.
Mr. Wirtz looked into the coming years, saying that in this age of affluence people will want more than equal opportunity . . . more than security. "Life is not just being, or being secure," he said. "It is living, and growing!"
Mr. Ball returned to the rostrum and introduced Dr. Morones-Prieto, Director General, Mexican Institute of Social Security and President, Inter-American Committee on Social Security, who with two members of his staff had come to the ceremonies to honor Mr. Altmeyer and those who have followed him in building the social security program of the United States. He also introduced Mrs. Altmeyer, Mrs. Mitchell, and Mrs. Ball.
The band struck up "On Wisconsin," the TV cameras started to roll, and the Secretary received a standing ovation from the throng.
Secretary Cohen, hailing his friends of many years who were in the audience, addressed them (and the headquarters employees in Baltimore, who listened to the ceremony in their auditorium) on "Social Security Looks Ahead." After giving a detailed description of the early days in the agency, and citing many of Mr. Altmeyer's contributions, he said:
"I know that the people in this room are not content with self-congratulations. Now is the time for looking ahead, for measuring the distance yet to go. We know that the job is not yet done. We know there are grave weaknesses that must be corrected. We know that social security and the related programs must continue to grow and change with the times.
"In the next decade, social security institutions can and must play a more important role in the elimination of poverty .... Health insurance must be broadened and expanded through a combination of public and private efforts. Our unemployment insurance system needs strengthening, and our welfare programs must be radically reshaped to meet new needs. We need more comprehensive community social services, and coupled with these efforts we need jobs, training, and education for more of our people.
"But in the spirit of those who created the basic law and in the light of social security's proven ability to grow and develop with the times, we can face the complex challenges of today and tomorrow with confidence. I am sure that the gaps and inadequacies we now see will be remedied as our productive capacity continues to grow.
"We must seek and maintain a social security status commensurate with our growing national income and potential--a status worthy of this Nation's expectations for all of its people. We must continue to move toward a life of dignity and independence and greater meaning for all Americans . . ." concluded Mr. Cohen.
Following this he turned to Mr. Altmeyer and presented to him and to Mr. Mitchell medal citations "for distinguished services" from the International Social Security Association (ISSA).
Next came the highlight of the program, the presentation of an HEW Award for Distinguished Public Service, to Arthur Altmeyer, "in recognition of his singularly creative and courageous contributions in shaping the programs of the Social Security Act during the formative years."
Quoting from the citation:
"More than any other single individual, Arthur Altmeyer is responsible for the social security system which today serves the American people. Beginning in 1934 he chaired the Technical Board appointed by the President's Committee on Economic Security. Later as a member and chairman of the Social Security Board, and as Commissioner for Social Security, he continued to display great sensitivity to human needs plus outstanding capability to meet those needs.... Under his leadership the programs established under the Social Security Act were guided and shaped through their first 18 years of trial and development. Imagination and resourcefulness marked him as an administrator in that crucial era. He helped to build a strong foundation capable of supporting the extension of social insurance protections to additional millions. The unprecedented experiment in Federal-State cooperation required by unemployment insurance and public assistance was able to go into operation in large part because of farsighted policies he was influential in establishing. By the time he returned to private life, Arthur Altmeyer's firm convictions and extraordinary abilities had helped to mold social security's institutions into the very fabric of American life."
Before he called on Mr. Altmeyer to speak, Secretary Cohen announced that he had created a new award, the Arthur J. Altmeyer Award for outstanding contributions to economic security. He then presented the first Arthur J. Altmeyer Award to Robert Ball for "His leadership, dedication, and administrative ability have brought hope and dignity to millions of Americans." Commissioner Ball said the secret had been well kept and acknowledged his pleasure and his surprise.
It was then time for Mr. Altmeyer's address. Protesting that he was brought to the ceremony under false pretenses, Mr. Altmeyer graciously accepted his award, saying he merely personified what all the people gathered in the auditorium had done. He gave credit to Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi (Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance in 1935) for seeing the long-range benefits of a social insurance program. He reminisced about the original small organization, where everyone knew each other, and mused on whether we hadn't lost that human touch in today's bigness. He hastened to reassure all that maybe we hadn't, because of the personal warmth and concern that the employees display as they serve the public.
The Marine Band played a recessional, and the auditorium was suddenly empty. In that void, one couldn't help but wonder--and be proud of--those founding fathers--their commonsense--their sensitivity--their wisdom--in knowing what was good for the people the program was to serve . . . and for the organization charged with its administration.

The Occupy movement, fractured and struggling for relevancy a year after its birth, marked its anniversary Monday with marches and sit-ins at its place of origin: the hub of the American financial system.
Several hundred protesters from Occupy Wall Street, the group that spawned countless offspring in cities around the country, moved into downtown Manhattan, staging a rush-hour sit-in near Trinity Church. Their plan to converge on the New York Stock Exchange was thwarted by a wall of police officers on horses and in riot gear.
The protesters swarmed through surrounding streets, clogging traffic. They gathered outside investment bank Brown Brothers Harriman, formed a drum circle at Trinity Church, sang songs in Battery Park.
"We're just at year one. We have a really big mountain to climb. But we're hoping to get the power back to the people," Kim Fraczek, 37, told NBC News. She wore an Obama mask and was with Erik McGregor, 44, who had on a Romney one. They said they were aiming to show the two candidates were controlled by money.
More than 180 people were arrested as of Monday evening. Those removed included four protesters in wheelchairs who blocked a busy street. That's on top of the dozen or so arrested during pre-anniversary events over the weekend.
Among those taken into custody was Episcopal Bishop George Packard, a decorated Vietnam vet who served as a military chaplain during the Iraq War, the New York Daily News reported.
While protesters clashed with police, workers trying to get to the office had to show identification to get past security barricades.
The sounds of drums and other musical instruments filled the air as protesters chanted: "One, two, three, four, I declare class war," NBC New York reported.
Other demonstrators tossed confetti and glitter, according to NBC News. Some sang "Happy Birthday." A group marched into a Bank of America branch dressed as polar bears and then formed a meditation circle.
"It's kind of a day of reflection, a day of celebration, a day that reflects some collective muscle and show of force. And I also think to remind not just ourselves but the world ... that things haven't really gotten better in the last year. In many ways they have gotten worse," college student Ian Williams, 27, told NBC News. "And the project we're sort of embarking upon is a long term one."
The Daily News spoke to Nancy Mancias, 42, of San Francisco, who wore a shocking pink bra on her head. "I don't think Occupy is dead," she said. "I think it's exciting to be here and see the variety of people, the ages, all sorts."
Marches and rallies were scheduled in 30 other cities, including Chicago, San Diego and San Francisco.
In San Francisco, several hundred protesters gathered in front of the Wells Fargo headquarters, marched past the Federal Reserve building and chanted, "The system has got to die, happy birthday Occupy," NBC Bay Area reported.
Demonstrators also gathered in Chicago for a march and a rally to discuss the movement's milestones, NBC 5 Chicago reported.
But the protesters nationwide did not appear to draw anywhere near the numbers, or attention, as the Wall Street action. And the numbers were down sharply from the crowds of thousands that marked the movement's early days.
The relatively muted response raised questions about the movement's ability to sustain itself. Occupy has become a catchphrase for discontent over perceived injustices, but it also lacks central leadership and vision. The aversion to authority and dogma was part of the original design. But that also may turn out to be the cause of its undoing.
The marches, demonstrations and sit-ins to protest economic inequalities that began in New York spread across the country in the fall of 2011. But it lost momentum last winter, when protesters were systematically evicted from the parks and other public spaces they'd commandeered. In many places, including New York, the encampments devolved into quarreling and violence. Some police departments, including Oakland's, came under fire for using excessive force.
Despite an attempt to coalesce during certain big events, including May Day, the NATO summit in Chicago and the national political conventions, the Occupy movement is generally only as strong as its individual groups, which seem to operate with their own ad hoc agenda. They typically focus their attention on local issues, such as public-university tuition, foreclosures, police shootings, or the corporate renaming of a football stadium. Often their actions are more symbolic, like demonstrations outside a local bank branch. Some have tried to retake the parks they were kicked out of.
Even the name means different things to different people. "Occupy" has been attached to just about anything a group of people are angry about, particularly when it comes to income inequality. Some signs have exclaimed, simply, "Occupy Everything."
Kalle Lasn, co-founder of Adbusters, the Canadian magazine that helped ignite the movement, said that was a good thing. "All around the world, that youthful spirit of revolt is alive and well," she told the Associated Press.
The Occupiers have divided the public. There is empathy among people who feel angry about the sputtering economy, and there is anger and frustration among those who see the protesters as complaining for complaining's sake.
The movement is also divided from within.
In New York, the group that took shape in Zuccotti Park still exists, albeit in a far less cohesive form, the AP reported. Occupiers mostly keep in touch online, share conference calls and produce Occupy-affiliated newsletters. The movement's remaining $85,000 in assets were frozen, though fundraising continues, according to the AP.
Similar developments have weakened Occupy organizers in other cities. In Oakland, the encampment in the City Hall lawn where protesters clashed with police is gone, and a metal fence surrounds the site, the AP reported.
"I don't think Occupy itself has an enormous future," Fordham University professor Mark Naison told the AP. But he added, "I think that movements energized by Occupy have an enormous future."
"This is a movement. It's only been a year," Justin Stone Diaz of Brooklyn told NBC New York as he participated in Monday's demonstrations. "It's going to take many years for it to develop and figure out exactly who we are."

Duluth's domestic partner registration program began Monday with little fanfare and even less turnout. As of Monday afternoon, no one had signed up.
The city's official acknowledgement could help some qualify for benefits like health insurance that employers typically offer married couples. Duluth becomes the second Minnesota city to recognize domestic partnerships.
Duluth City Council Member Jeff Anderson introduced Duluth's domestic partner registry in May, about the time state legislators dropped statewide domestic partner registration from a spending bill because of opposition from Gov. Tim Pawlenty. Anderson, Duluth's only openly gay city council member, said it's time Minnesota cities send a message to the state.
"I brought this forward because in the State of Minnesota there's only one city that recognized domestic partners, and that's Minneapolis," he said. "No other city has taken that step forward, and I think at this time in history it's important for us to recognize that families look much different than they did, say, 40 or 50 years ago."
Minneapolis became the second major U.S. city with a domestic partner registry back in 1991. But there are big differences between the Minneapolis and Duluth versions.
Minneapolis requires most businesses that contract with the city to offer their employees domestic partner benefits -- the same as would be offered married employees. It extends hospital visitation rights to registered partners.
Anderson said Duluth's version simply offers an official acknowledgement of the partnership.
"I think it's important for a city to recognize that and also to extend an official recognition to make it easier for citizens to access benefits if they have an employer that provides domestic partner benefits," he said.
For all the fanfare, Duluth's first day of domestic partner registration has been decidedly underwhelming.
According to Duluth City Clerk Jeff Cox, no one had showed up by mid-afternoon Monday to register. But his office had received several phone calls over the past weeks by people interested.
Domestic partnership is often interpreted as a gay rights issue, but Anderson said it's much broader than that. The definition of a domestic partner could as easily be an unmarried, heterosexual couple keeping a household together.
Anderson may have wanted something more along the lines of Minneapolis, but he knows that politically, that would have been much more difficult to pass.
"I think this domestic partnership registry is a good first step in providing a little more equality to all of our citizens," he said. "I would like to see us some day move in that direction. I would also like the City of Duluth to some day be able to provide domestic partner benefits to all of our employees."
By law, Minnesota cities, including Duluth and Minneapolis, can't extend the same benefits to the unmarried partners of city employees.
With Duluth's registration program in place, St. Paul stands to become the third Minnesota city with domestic partner registration. St. Paul 5th Ward Council Member Lee Helgen is co-sponsoring a St. Paul registry, based on the one in Duluth.
Like Duluth's, it avoids the requirements under the more comprehensive Minneapolis registration.
"As a city, we can't offer domestic partner benefits," Helgen said. "We're not allowed to, by state law. And so, trying to impose that as a condition of our contract just seemed to create a little bit more discussion than what we were really trying to do, which was provide a registry option for individuals."
Helgen said the ordinance is not just about benefits.
"I think it's one way that St. Paul can just demonstrate that we value all families in our community, and that we are a welcoming community, and that we're really interested in the well-being of the families who live here," he said.
The St. Paul City Council could be taking up that city's new domestic partner registration this Wednesday.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta firebrand NeNe Leakes graces the current cover of Ebony — bathing in what appears to be a tub of diamonds — and people aren't happy about it, Karu F. Daniels wrote Tuesday for the Daily Beast.
". . . 'Those who take issue with reality television's role in pop culture have questioned whether Ebony made the right decision by glorifying one of its most popular characters,' said Amy Dubois Barnett, the magazine's editor in chief.
" 'As the magazine of record for the black community, it is Ebony's role to both reflect the aesthetics and interests of our readership, and to inspire them toward higher aspirations for themselves and for all African Americans. The November issue featured the Obamas on the cover, and was a perfect example of the latter. The December/January issue featuring NeNe Leakes on the cover is an excellent example of the former.' "
Pair Buys Back Magazine from Magic Johnson Firm
"Len Burnett, Co-CEO, Group Publisher at Uptown Media Group, has left the company after striking a deal to buy back Uptown magazine from the Earvin 'Magic' Johnson-backed company, Vibe Holdings LLC, according to industry watchers," Target Market News reported on Tuesday. "The split follows the departure of Burnett's longtime partner, Co-CEO Brett Wright, who left the company in May. The two will re-unite as the co-owners of Uptown.
". . . Uptown has been part of Vibe Holdings LLC for almost two years. It was combined with other media brands after Ron Burkle's and Earvin 'Magic' Johnson's Yucaipa Johnson Fund and InterMedia Partners merged their Vibe and Uptown businesses with the BlackBook Media business and The Access Network Company. In addition to Vibe and Uptown, the company also owns the assets of the television show, Soul Train."
"Uptown was founded by Burnett and Wright in 2004. It currently has a circulation of 300,000 and is distributed in New York, the Washington-Baltimore region, Chicago and Atlanta."
Burnett told Journal-isms by telephone Wednesday that he could not talk because he was on a conference call and said he would call back.
Johnson's Aspire cable channel debuted in June. Aimed at black families, it was then available in about 7 million homes and in 16 of the top 25 African American markets, including New York, Atlanta, Chicago and Washington, the Associated Press reported.
Media Consolidation Hits People of Color, Groups Say
"FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is reported to have rule changes on the fast-track that would allow broadcast-newspaper crossownership in the 20 largest markets and further radio consolidation as well — but public watchdog groups opposed to further media consolidation are girding for battle," Jack Messmer wrote Wednesday for TVNewsCheck.
"If the FCC passes the rule changes without any public hearings — and this could happen before the end of the year — Free Press President-CEO Craig Aaron vows that his group will sue the commission yet again. His view that the FCC is acting in haste without allowing for public input was echoed repeatedly in a telephone press conference today by Free Press and six other organizations.
With further media consolidation, "people of color are going to be frozen out from having a voice," Alex Nogales, president and CEO of the National Hispanic Media Coalition, said during the call. "Who is employed by the media is directly related to who owns the media," added Wade Henderson, president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.
Bernie Lunzer, president of the Newspaper Guild, said allowing newspaper companies to own more broadcast outlets will lead to fewer women and people of color in reporting slots as the total number of employees declines.
Henderson and others on the call "insisted that the Third Circuit Court of Appeals was clear that the FCC must evaluate the impact on minority and female ownership before making any rule changes — and that the commission has not done so," Messmer reported.
"The groups noted that according to FCC statistics people of color own just 3.6% of all full-power TV stations and 8% of radio stations; and that women own less than 7% of all broadcast outlets."
Others on the call included Jesse Jackson, founder and president, Rainbow PUSH Coalition; Mee Moua, president, Asian American Justice Center; and Rashad Robinson, executive director, ColorOfChange.org.

FAMU's Knight Chair Heading to Asia After 20 Years
After 20 years as Knight chair in Journalism Student Enhancement at Florida A&M University, Joe Ritchie is leaving to take up residence in Asia.
"Yes, I've decided that after 20 years — I never thought I'd ever be in any place that long — it was time to move on," Ritchie said by email. "And, predictably enough, it's the inner expat that has been dying to bust out. I plan to return to the IHT [International Herald Tribune] in Hong Kong this summer, then stay on in Hong Kong in some capacity. I haven't been specific with folks yet, because I've got a few balls up in the air, so nothing's firm yet. I've told folks here I will be pursuing other interests in Asia."
Ritchie, who reads and writes German and Dutch, has worked as a reporter or editor at the Washington Post, the New York Times and the International Herald Tribune and had a brief term as visiting professor in the Journalism and Media Studies Centre at the University of Hong Kong.
Ann Kimbrough, dean of the FAMU School of Journalism and Graphic Communication, said by email that Ritchie's position "will remain a chair for journalism professionals who possess a Master's degree in journalism and who have considerable multimedia experience. This week, I will announce the members of the search committee. The search will begin in earnest in early 2013."
Eric Newton, senior adviser to the president of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, called it "one of the greatest jobs. I hope the candidates will be fabulous." First funded in 1990, the FAMU chair was among the first three that the foundation established, Newton said by telephone. Today there are 11.
Ritchie wrote, "As for students, they still need our support and mentorship…. not to mention increasingly a broader set of skills, just to be marginally employable in a shrinking market…. But I also think they need a good dose of some old-fashioned journalism values and far more exposure. More reading, more travel…. And yes, languages, which is one of the reasons I've been pushing study abroad the past few years.
". . . it does sadden me to see an ever-shrinking number of HBCU students enrolling in journalism and mass communication programs who have any real strong interest in public affairs," referring to historically black colleges and universities. "Nearly half of our students are in the PR sequence, and half of those, as well as half of the students oriented toward broadcasting, seem to want careers in areas like entertainment and fashion. (huge sigh) Most frequently cited career goals: music video producer; special event planner (usually translating to: planning parties for celebrities, especially in the music field); fashion marketing; agent for musicians or sports figures….
"A few still aspire to more traditional careers in journalism; very few seem interested in newspapers or even news websites…. Some do broadcast journalism, but really see that as a bridge to doing other things in television and other electronic media.
"And probably largely because of a lack of resources, we're not seeing many of the kinds of great students that flooded our halls back in the mid-90s; we have a population that is probably over half 'alternative admits' – I've heard the figure 70 percent bandied about frequently." ["Alternative admits is jargon for students admitted who don't meet all of your normal admission requirements," he explained.] "Our typical student is less well informed about the world around her than her counterpart of a decade or two ago. There are exceptions (the two I sent to China being prime examples), but they are really far and few between."
D.C. Pacifica Station Upends Programming, Staff
One by one, volunteer program hosts at WPFW-FM, the Pacifica community radio station in the nation's capital, are being told that the show they are about to do will be their last.
The station has not yet informed listeners, but WPFW has decided to eliminate much of its music programming in favor of syndicated talk, including the Tavis Smiley radio show; Smiley's "Smiley and West," with activist Cornel West; and Michel Martin's "Tell Me More," which airs on public radio's WAMU-FM, from NPR, according to staffers. More than a dozen people have been let go in this effort to boost listenership, the staffers said.
Pacifica's five stations not only are noncommercial but also politically progressive. The D.C. operation is funded 95 percent by community members and considers itself rooted in the black community. Its talk programs on everything from local politics to nutrition are supplemented by music that include from jazz to zydeco, salsa, calypso, hip-hop and R&B oldies.
The station is perpetually facing financial challenges. Station Manager John Hughes said on the station's website, "The year ahead will be one of change for WPFW … a year of transformation. We are facing two stark realities: we must move from the building that has housed us for the past 15 years; and most, if not all, of our equipment must be replaced."
Hassan Abdul-Ali, who said he has been with the station 18 or 19 years, said Hughes told him Wednesday that he had been dismissed and that the show he was about to do would be his last. He thanked listeners on air without telling them details. So did Katea Stitt, the music and cultural affairs director who does a morning jazz show and is also shop steward for the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists.
"The sweeping changes are the culmination of a bleak period of WPFW's history," Stitt told Journal-isms by telephone. "There's been a constant management-union struggle. You would think the worker is first" at a station with Pacifica's political leanings. Many are working half-time or three-quarters time to save the station money.
A year ago, staffers and volunteer programmers declared no confidence in Hughes, formerly chief operating officer at Howard University's television station, WHUT-TV.
News director Askia Muhammad told Journal-isms he would lose the Tuesday morning jazz show he hosted but would produce a new "Morning Brew," the model for which he described as a combination of "Democracy Now!" Pacifica's daily newsmagazine hosted by Amy Goodman from New York, and "The Tom Joyner Morning Show," the syndicated commercial music-and-talk show geared to African American adults.
"I'm going to try to make it work," Muhammad said by telephone. "We're very, very underresourced. It's going to be a very real challenge for us."
Some of those leaving are iconic, said Stitt, daughter of fabled jazz saxophonist Sonny Stitt. Brother Ah recorded with the legendary saxophonist John Coltrane and played with the New York Philharmonic. The women's-oriented "Sophie's Parlor" came to the station when it debuted in 1977 and had been part of Georgetown University's radio programming. "It's like a death of the spirit," Stitt said. The imported shows do not match WPFW's mission, she said, especially as Smiley's show is underwritten by Wal-Mart. Pacifica boasts of its freedom from corporate influences.
Hughes, reached at home by telephone Wednesday night, told Journal-isms, "Announcements are forthcoming." Asked when, he said, "We haven't decided at this point."

. . . Callers Denounce Station, Charging Betrayal
Caller after caller denounced WPFW-FM during a half-hour community call-in show Thursday morning as the Washington station announced new syndicated programming and the removal of several programs and program hosts.
Host David Whettstone of "Community Comment" posed a question about District of Columbia school boundary changes, but callers wanted to talk about what they called a lack of transparency and the change in programming.
One called for a boycott of the station in front of its offices Friday and a meeting Saturday at Busboys and Poets, a restaurant, meeting place and bookstore at 14th and V streets NW. "We need some answers," this caller said. Others said they would cease contributing to the community-supported station until they received satisfactory responses.
"We're here when you ask us for money, but that doesn't match up with what listeners are hearing," one said. A teacher started out by discussing the school boundary changes, but ended, "WPFW has far-reaching boundaries and potential for education. That's why we're so angry" and demand an investigation.
The station posted the first official information about the programming changes on its website and its Facebook page Tuesday.
Whettstone told callers that John Hughes, the station manager, would be available to answer questions during the "Managers Mailbox" show on Friday morning. At the end of the show, he announced that the show was being replaced by an hour-long program of news, interviews and call-ins. [Added Nov. 29]

CNN Wins Black, Hispanic, Asian Cable Vote
CNN had more African American, Hispanic and Asian/Pacific Islander viewers than the cable competition on election night, CNN said on Wednesday.
CNN had more viewers than Fox News Channel and MSNBC combined for each demographic. Compared with the broadcast networks, CNN also led in African American viewers in each demographic: total viewers, those ages 25-54 and those 18-34, the network said.
Paige Albiniak added for Broadcasting & Cable, ". . . CNN is the lowest-rated cable news network. Fox News Channel is basic cable's second-highest rated network, coming in behind only ESPN with an average of 2.6 million viewers in primetime, beating even NBCU's top-rated entertainment cable network, USA.
"Compared to last November, when there was no election, Fox is up 47% among total viewers and up 56% among news' key demographic of adults 25-54 in primetime. Fox News also boasts cable's top-two news programs, The O'Reilly Factor and Hannity, among that key demo. . . ."
Albiniak noted the indications that Jeff Zucker will assume the top CNN news post that Jim Walton will be leaving vacant. Zucker is the former head of NBCUniversal and the current executive producer of Disney-ABC's new talk show starring Katie Couric.
[Update: "Veteran news producer and former NBC Universal chief Jeff Zucker will become the president of CNN Worldwide in January, the network announced Thursday," CNN reported.]

Diversity Scarce in "Post-Industrial Journalism"
"We are living in the least diverse, least inclusive media environment we will inhabit for the foreseeable future, which is to say that the ecosystem forming around us will include more actors and actions than even today's environment does," according to "Post-Industrial Journalism: Adapting to the Present," a report Wednesday from the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University.
It might be the only time "diverse" or "diversity" was mentioned in this look forward [PDF].
Authors C.W. Anderson, Emily Bell and Clay Shirky also wrote, "Many of the changes talked about in the last decade as part of the future landscape of journalism have already taken place; much of journalism's imagined future is now its lived-in present. (As William Gibson noted long ago, 'The future is already here. It's just unevenly distributed.') Our goal is to write about what has already happened and what is happening today, and what we can learn from it, rather than engaging in much speculation.
"The effect of the current changes in the news ecosystem has already been a reduction in the quality of news in the United States. On present evidence, we are convinced that journalism in this country will get worse before it gets better, and, in some places (principally midsize and small cities with no daily paper) it will get markedly worse. Our hope is to limit the scope, depth and duration of that decay by pointing to ways to create useful journalism using tools, techniques and assumptions that weren't even possible 10 years ago."
AP Vetoes "Homophobia" and "Ethnic Cleansing"
"The Associated Press has nixed 'homophobia,' 'ethnic cleansing,' and a number of other terms from its Style Book in recent months," Dylan Byers reported Monday for Politico.
"The online Style Book now says that '-phobia,' 'an irrational, uncontrollable fear, often a form of mental illness' should not be used 'in political or social contexts,' including 'homophobia' and 'Islamophobia.' It also calls 'ethnic cleansing' a 'euphemism,' and says the AP 'does not use "ethnic cleansing" on its own. It must be enclosed in quotes, attributed and explained.'
" 'Ethnic cleansing is a euphemism for pretty violent activities, a phobia is a psychiatric or medical term for a severe mental disorder. Those terms have been used quite a bit in the past, and we don't feel that's quite accurate,' AP Deputy Standards Editor Dave Minthorn told POLITICO."

"Time Magazine is set to unveil [its] Person of the Year 2012, and despite a year in which Latinos rose in prominence and coverage, undocumented immigrants in the U.S. are the only Latino representation in the group of 40 candidates," Adrian Carrasquillo reported Tuesday for NBCLatino.
"The general assembly of the Egyptian Journalists Syndicate on Sunday voiced its rejection of President Mohamed Morsi's constitutional declaration, threatening to stage a general strike in retaliation against Morsi's divisive Thursday declaration," Nada Hussein Rashwan reported Sunday for Egypt's ahramonline. The Constituent Assembly "rejected our proposal to stop the practice of jailing journalists for press offences and our proposal to keep news organisations independent of political groups," said Galal Aref, former head of the Journalists Syndicate.
Yvette Miley has been promoted to senior vice president at MSNBC, the National Association of Black Journalists announced last week. "Miley who retains the title of Executive Editor joined MSNBC in 2009 to oversee the network's dayside programming. . . . Prior to working at MSNBC she was the News Director at the NBC owned and operated stations in Miami and Birmingham," Ala. "She is a 1985 graduate of the University of Florida."
"At a time of major news developments in the Middle East and North Africa, the Arab-American media's efforts to meet the demands of its audience have been complicated by declining ad revenue, new technology, and growing competition from Arab outlets in the Middle East and North Africa, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism," the project announced on Wednesday.
"Jason Pugh is joining WRC in Washington, DC as a sports reporter, general manager Jackie Bradford announced this morning," Merrill Knox reported Wednesday for TVSpy. "Pugh comes from West Palm Beach, where he was a sports anchor and feature reporter at WPTV-WFLX. He also works for ESPN 760 radio, where he hosts three shows and provides play-by-play for games."
"Joan Smalls is having quite the stellar year," Julee Wilson wrote Tuesday for Huffington Post. "The Puerto Rican supermodel wowed us on the cover of W magazine, landed a job as co-host on MTV's 'House of Style' and was the face of Fendi and Chanel's Spring 2012 campaigns. . . . The 24-year-old graces Vogue Turkey's first cover of 2013 in a gold-and-black embroidered dress with a sheer bodice . . . For Vogue Japan, the glossy opted for a more refined ensemble with Joan striking a pose in a long black dress with a fancy embellished neckline."
In Columbus, Ohio, "A libel lawsuit between two weathermen at WCMH-TV (Channel 4) has been settled, according to documents filed in the case," Theodore Decker reported Monday for the Columbus Dispatch. "Bob Nunnally sued fellow forecaster Jym Ganahl this month in Franklin County Common Pleas Court."
"In the first major sweep of the 2012-2013 television broadcast season, KXLN Univision 45 is Houston's No. 1 broadcast station among Adults 18-34, Adults 18-49 and Adults 25-54 in all the major dayparts: daytime, early fringe, early news, primetime, late news and late fringe, regardless of language," Mike McGuff reported Tuesday on his media blog.
"Oprah Winfrey recently resurrected her annual My Favorite Things holiday gift giveaway on the OWN Network," Jenice Armstrong told readers Monday in her Philadelphia Daily News column. "My version, which replicates her gift extravaganza on a local level, never went away! . . . Simply nominate someone you know who really could use a bit of seasonal cheer. Last year's winners included a mom going through some hard times who was nominated by her 11-year-old son, and a little girl who dreamed of seeing "The Nutcracker," nominated by a family friend who knew her mom couldn't afford the tickets."
"Last week, a 28-year-old Henderson man named Barry Wilkerson was shot and killed," columnist Barry Saunders wrote Tuesday in the News & Observer in Raleigh, N.C. "Before his mama had a chance to pick out a suit and tie in which to bury him, a local TV station was reporting on his criminal past, even, for dramatic effect, slowly scanning the camera across the arrest record. . . . Sullying the dead unnecessarily is not a new phenomenon, but it still enrages — even when the newspaper does it."
Columnist Bessy Reyna of CTLatinoNews took Hartford Magazine to task on Wednesday. ". . . among the '50 Most Influential' there is not one person who is a Latino," Reyna wrote. "There are a hockey player, two college basketball coaches, one university president, a couple of restaurant owners, heads of nonprofits, a disgraced utility company president and many CEOs."
"TNT will debut the drama 'Monday Mornings' on — appropriately — Monday, February 4, 2013," Alex Weprin reported for TVNewser on Tuesday. "The series, which is from David E. Kelley and CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta, is based on Gupta's book of the same name. Actors Ving Rhames and Alfred Molina have signed on as stars."
"I was recently surprised to receive a Facebook friend request from Tina Brown," media blogger Jim Romenesko wrote on Tuesday. "I accepted it and quickly discovered that my new virtual pal — Tina A. Brown — wasn't the Newsweek/Daily Beast editor; she's a struggling journalist from Savannah, Georgia." Brown wrote Romenesko, "I've used the same byline for 30 years. I can't remember how many times I've scheduled an interview, shown up and the person asked with a dubious tone 'you're Tina Brown?' I used to think it was because they were surprised by my race. Some of my telephone sources from all over the country have said I don't sound black. They ask to see my press pass when we meet."
"Sudanese security agents blocked the Monday editions of three newspapers that had covered the arrest of a former spy chief over an alleged plot, journalists said, a move that highlighted the sensitivity of the issue," Reuters reported.
On Monday, the Committee to Protect Journalists "condemned the murder of Brazilian journalist Eduardo Carvalho in Campo Grande, the capital of Mato Grosso do Sul state, which borders Paraguay and Bolivia. Carvalho was the editor and owner of news website Última Hora News, which frequently denounced local corruption, according to news reports."
"Somali authorities must immediately release Ibrahim Mohamed Adan, a correspondent for the Somali service of the BBC, who has been held for nearly a week in Mogadishu without charge," the Committee to Protect Journalists said Monday.

Top 10 Questions About Small Business Incorporation Answered
Top 10 Questions About Small Business Incorporation Answered
Thinking of incorporating your business? Have questions about which business entity is right for you – limited liability company (LLC), S Corporation, partnership, or sole proprietor? Maybe you're moving out of state and aren't sure what happens to your business entity? For answers to these and other important facts about business incorporation, check out these 10 frequently asked questions:
What's the best option for small business owners, an LLC or an S Corporation?
LLCs and S Corporations are two very popular forms of incorporation, and both offer liability protection and pass-through income tax treatment for business owners, since taxes are reported on your personal income tax return, not by the entity. Which is best for you? Among the issues to consider are the number of owners involved, what you can and cannot write-off for tax purposes, the amount of employment tax you may be required to pay, and individual state tax laws. To help you decide, read The Better Choice for Entity Selection: LLC or S Corporation?
I'm a freelancer. Do I need to incorporate?
Legally, the answer is no. In fact, over 70 percent of U.S. businesses are owned by sole proprietors and operate successfully without incorporating. However if you need liability protection to protect personal assets if a client sues you, potential tax savings (at a price), or a loan to grow your business in the future, then incorporation might benefit you.
Which state should I incorporate in?
Typically, if you only operate in one state, you should incorporate in that state. If you operate in multiple states, you should determine which state is the friendliest to corporations and incorporate in that state. Read more in How to Choose the Best Location for your Business. File your articles of incorporation in the state where you intend to incorporate – usually with the Secretary of State's office and for a fee, depending on where you live. Check your state website for more information.
I'm forming an LLC. What documents do I need?
Each state has specific guidelines for forming an LLC, but they all adhere to the same general principles (explained on SBA.gov here). Whichever method you choose and no matter where your LLC is formed, you'll need to complete two specific documents to legally form your LLC: your Articles of Organization and your Operating Agreement. Check this blog for a quick overview of what you need to know about these key documents.
How do I form a legal business partnership?
Partnerships are unincorporated businesses and you don't have to file any paperwork to create one, although it is a good idea to put a formal partnership agreement into writing and run it past an attorney. You'll also need to register it with the IRS and your state and county for tax purposes, and you'll want to register your "Doing Business As" name. Many partnerships formalize their business entity as an LLC. An LLC protects the partners by reducing their liability for business debts while still allowing profits to pass through to them.
What kind of legal entity should a married couple in business operate as?
Married couples in business may form any kind of legal entity they choose and many opt for an LLC. However, for federal tax purposes, an unincorporated business jointly owned by a married couple is classified as a partnership. This classification stands on the assumption that each spouse has an equal say and share of business affairs. However, eligible couples can file as sole proprietors for federal tax purposes. Under this provision, each spouse must separately report a share of all business income, gains, losses, deductions, and credits. Both will receive credit for Social Security and Medicare.
To be considered a "qualified joint venture," your business must meet the following three conditions:
- A husband and wife must be the only members of the joint venture and file a joint return
- Each spouse materially participates in the business
- Both spouses agree not to be treated as a partnership
I operate an LLC. What happens if I move to another state?
It's always best to consult an attorney if you are moving your LLC to a new state because there are several options that require careful consideration, for both online and bricks and mortar businesses:
- Continue the LLC in your old state and register as a foreign (out of state) LLC in your new state. This will mean more paperwork (duplicate annual reports) and tax filing. Reporting for multi-member LLCs can get more complex.
- Liquidate the old LLC and form an LLC in your new state.
- Register a new LLC in the new state and have each member transfer membership interest (percent ownership) from the old LLC to the new LLC in the new state.
- Form a new LLC in your new state and merge the previous LLC into it. The IRS views this as a continuation of the old LLC and you can continue with your existing EIN. Assuming LLC members still have a 50 percent interest in the capital and profits of the new LLC, there are no tax consequences either.
How do I pay myself in an LLC structure?
It depends on the circumstances. It's always recommended that you consult a tax professional. If you are a single-member LLC, the practicalities of payment and taxation are relatively straightforward because the IRS requires that your earnings are reported on your own personal tax return. Open a separate business and personal checking account (merging them just exposes your personal assets to liability), and pay yourself by writing a check from your business account to your personal account. Remember that all your business expenses should be paid from your business checking account. If you are a multi-member LLC, your situation is likely unique to your business, so your best advice is to talk to an accountant.
What happens if I change the name of my business?
All business types, except sole proprietors, should first notify their Secretary of State to change names in their articles of incorporation. States have online forms for this and usually charge a small fee. You'll find out whether your new name is already in use in your state by another corporation or partnership. You can do this via online state databases of registered business names and fictitious names.

ALL BALL NERVE CENTER — I know a lot of people who collect sneakers, neatly stacking boxes on boxes on boxes in their closets, never even touching the boxes for fear of lessening the value of the kicks. I get that, I do, but I am not one of those people. I will admit that yes, I have spent an asymmetric amount of my disposable income through the years on shoes, but I actually wear them instead of collecting them. What are shoes for if not to be worn?
Sure, basketball shoes are fully functional, a tool used by basketball players to optimize their ability to play the game. But to some of us, they can also be an objet d'art, a beautiful combination of leather and rubber and whatever else that not only looks terrific, but also says something about you, the shoe-wearer.
Bulls G Rip Hamilton has been down with Jordan Brand for as long as I can remember (and that's a long time). As one of the brand's signature athletes, he has long rocked an array of classic Jordans on the court, as well as peppering his social media feeds with peeks at his extensive collection. But for a recent "throwback Thursday," or #tbt as the kids online call it, Rip Hamilton posted a photo that has had sneakerheads drooling.
As Hamilton said, "Had to many sneakers in the crib had to fill up 2 u-hauls to put them in another spot." So remember that this is ostensibly just half of his collection.
Next time your parents or girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband complains that you have too many shoes, show them this picture:

There are three cancer screening programmes:
- the NHS Breast Screening Programme
- the NHS Cervical Screening Programme
- the NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme.
There is no reliable screening test for prostate cancer at present. However, the Prostate Cancer Risk Management Programme provides information to explain existing tests and treatments.
All three cancer screening programmes are delivered by the NHS. They are coordinated by the national office of the NHS Cancer Screening Programmes, part of Public Health England. The national office team sits within the Health and Wellbeing directorate. We write guidance for the programmes, and produce standards to make sure that you are properly cared for.
Every aspect of screening is carefully monitored against these standards to make sure that the service you are offered is of the highest quality. Staff at regional Quality Assurance Reference Centres work with screening services to ensure this. Like the national office team, they are employed by Public Health England.
Public Health England has been established to protect and improve the nation's health and wellbeing and to reduce inequalities. It will lead on the development of a 21st-century health and wellbeing service, supporting local authorities and the NHS to deliver the greatest possible improvements in public health. For all corporate information, please see www.gov.uk/phe.

How can you maximize profits when everyone is racing to the bottom of the pricing scale? Consider the value you can offer beyond quality, service, and price.
This winter has been really tough on almost all the companies I know in this industry. With very few exceptions, business is down, and pressure to lower prices is much higher. Competitors are going to ridiculous lengths to win work. But I wouldn't exactly call it winning. Margins have been stripped to the bone, and many companies are just barely covering actual operating costs. The logic is driven by desperation: If they can just hold out until spring, things will get better. With all the indicators, that may be an optimistic hope.
Watching the industry forums, the discussion is all about pricing and how low it's going. There's plenty of talk of commodity pricing and the lack of differentiation in the marketplace. Customers just don't seem to get it. All they want is cheap, cheap, cheap. I've read many arguments, but found few substantive suggestions concerning pricing. The most common ones center on the old quality/service/price formula. The saying goes, "You can have two out of the three. Take your pick." Sadly, if you expect to have any chance, you need all three and then some.
This month I would like to take a serious look at what you can do to increase your business and maintain your price—all the while keeping your clients happy and satisfied. How is this possible? The key lies in how you look at the market and your customer base. The majority of pricing-related problems come from looking at the situation from the wrong perspective.
While your customers think they want the absolute rock-bottom price, they really don't. Their main concern is really about reliability and performance within their use of your products. Their efforts to have it all are more of an expected behavior than a reality. Now, I'm sure such a statement is raising the eyebrows of many of you right now. I can almost hear the phone ringing off the hook with printers protesting: "You don't know what it's like out there right now," and such. Believe me, I do.

Studying for the LSAT / LSAT Prep« on: January 30, 2003, 01:41:05 PM »
Hey I just joined up with this message board and was taking a look around. The last LSAT prep discussion was a lil while ago and seemed to be a debate of program vs. individual study; furthermore, it seemed as though TestMasters might be trying to advertise. Cutting to the point, I'm a first year undergrad student and I'd like to score high on my LSAT when I take it. Individual prep is great and an actual course could be worth something. With specific names of books and programs, would you scholarly people mind gracing me with some advice and suggestions as to what is most effective? You can always learn from someone elses method as well, so some study techniques would be great too. Also someone was saying somewhere else on the board that Law Schools average your LSAT scores?? Thanks folks.
