Tasty Ukraine Bites for Pundits!
After Kiev erupted in protest, then open revolt that caused Yanukovych to flee and Putin to barge into Crimea, it's time to play catch up about a part of the world we generally ignore. I've been having fun watching the appearance of instant-experts across media landscape from Twitter to cable news. It seems that in […] [Read More]

In the days before Wednesday's presidential debate, word was out that Mitt Romney had filled his quiver with a number of zingers that he'd used to get under President Barack Obama's skin.
That didn't turn out to be the case.
Instead, Romney unveiled an impressive instance of semantic jujitsu. For years, Republicans have been plagued by the name attached to their insistence that tax cuts for high-earners benefit those below: "Trickle-down economics."
It carries, if you'll pardon the expression, an unpleasant, urinary implication.
But at his first opportunity last night, Romney turned the phrase on its head:
The president has a view very similar to the view he had when he ran four years, that a bigger government, spending more, taxing more, regulating more — if you will, trickle-down government — would work.
The GOP candidate repeated the phrase several times during the debate. This morning, before leaving Colorado, Romney took a victory lap with a semi-impromptu appearance at a local CPAC gathering:
In a span of seven minutes, Romney unlimbered "trickle-down government" nine times – the sign of a message that's been well-vetted by focus groups:
"I saw the president's vision as trickle-down government, and I don't think that's what America believes in….We have very two different courses for America – trickle-down government or prosperity through freedom. And trickle-down government that the president proposes is one where he will raise taxes on small business….
"We're going to have a stronger America with more jobs, rising incomes, moderated prices – that's a very different path than one with trickle-down government…Under trickle-down government, you have the president saying – well, you remember in his last campaign, that under his policies of energy, that prices of energy would necessarily skyrocket…
"The Congressional Budget Office says that by the end of a four-year period, if he were to be re-elected, trickle-down government would lead to a setting where we would have $20 trillion in debt…Trickle-down government will not create the jobs Americans need. Trickle-down government will not bring down the cost of energy. Trickle-down government will not allow incomes to rise…"
After years of quiet suffering, Republicans are out to send the stream down the other leg.

The GOP would rather the government not trickle into any aspect of our capitalist lives, but rather, get busy trickling into our marriages and wombs with decisions that are not our own. In the name of freedom, of course.
October 4th, 2012

Great statement!

Can mittyy spell tinkle down-government after reading his little tinkle down statement after last night it appears that is all the GOP walked away with…Yeah. the proof is in the tinkle down as smitty and his pet rhynnie will say any thing humm..Still Voting for President OBAMA.
Vote NO in charter schools.
Re-elect President OBAMA.
October 4th, 2012
4:29 pm
Obama has been trickling down on the middle class for 4 years. Higher energy and food costs, less family income, more unemployment, and more debt, it flows down hill.
October 4th, 2012
4:31 pm
Left out higher insurance premiums, the stream is indeed heavy.
October 4th, 2012
4:39 pm
Republicans don't want to "trickling into our marriages and wombs" We were very happy with marriage between a man and a woman and keeping abortion very rare until you libs wanted to change things. We are only trying to do what you have already done, change policy.
October 4th, 2012
4:40 pm
Economic freedom are social freedom are two different sides of the same coin. That's what Mitt Romney and Barack Obama don't understand; limiting one harms the other.
October 4th, 2012
4:47 pm
I guess nobody has taken into account the fact that this little thing called a drought is one of the main reasons we have higher food prices.
Retired, why does the GOP tout small government, then turn around and try to legislate the holy hell out of women's healthcare? I see you brought up the abortion issue. Here's the best way to sum that up: If abortion is a decision that you would never choose for yourself, then fine, but stop trying to force everybody else to conform to that. Each and every woman should be able to make her own individual decisions about their reproductive healthcare. Tell your GOP bretheren to stay out of it.
October 4th, 2012
4:52 pm
I guess when mitt's got nothing, he has to throw something at the wall and see if it sticks.
I just hope this one 'trickles back on him' in November.
October 4th, 2012
4:54 pm
The Big Bird moment just shows how out of touch Romney is . What about the 47% what are we?
GOP wear brown suits so when it tinkles down no one notices but it gives them a warm feeling anyway.
Save Big Bird.. Avoid the warm down feeling…
Re-elect President OBAMA.

October 4th, 2012
5:00 pm
Never heard a republican say a single word about women's healthcare, or men's healthcare for that matter. If you are refering to abortion, we are concerned about the baby's healthcare. Hope that clears it up for you.

Very disappointed that both candidates ignored the steady assault on women's rights, funded by small, wealthy right-fringe groups, and implemented bit by bit, year by year, in state legislatures all over the country. Do they think we forgot?
Yeah, keep thinking positive, trogs. Women never fight back, do we? Heh…
October 4th, 2012
5:10 pm
I hear the term "women's rights" all the time. Would you define them for me?
October 4th, 2012
5:16 pm
Obama is indeed the void surrounded by the sphincter ani externus muscle.
Vote YES on Charter Schools.
Recall all the criminal democrats.
Throw the communist out by electing President Romney!
October 4th, 2012
5:22 pm
cc: Does that include all the repubs who were demos? Start with our Governor!
And by supporting state decided charter schools, why are you supporting larger government?
October 4th, 2012
5:22 pm
Retired Soldier,
Easy. Women's rights should be the same as yours.
October 4th, 2012
5:26 pm
CC, there are plenty of criminals in the GOP as well. And please share your proof that Obama is a communist. That bit of fear mongering has been going on since he got elected, yet this country is no closer to communism than it was before Obama.
Retired, please tell me why the right threw a fit when the birth control mandate was announced earlier this year. I've never seen so many men act a fool over something that women have been doing for years now. As for abortion, why do so many people on the right think that their view on abortion should apply to everybody else. Every woman's situation is different, so a one size fits all approach doesn't work. Again, if abortion isn't for you or your family, then don't have one, but stop telling other women what they should do.
October 4th, 2012
5:29 pm
As far as the charter school amendment, I find it very disturbing that Sam Olens wants the school boards to cease and desist with their opposition to this. He says it's because official time and taxpayer dollars were used, but something tells me that if the school board were in favor of it, he would be perfectly fine.
October 4th, 2012
5:33 pm
I agree, so there aren't women's rights or men's rights, just rights held by all people. Then we need to get rid of the sexist terms, men's and or women's rights, agreed?
October 4th, 2012
5:36 pm
Because of religion DJ, religion. Governement should not force religious institutions to violate their faith.
Abortion- You forgot the third person in the room, the baby. Does the baby get a vote about their life or death?
October 4th, 2012
5:38 pm
Retired Soldier: "Then we need to get rid of the sexist terms, men's and or women's rights, agreed?"
Agreed. Just as soon as we get rid of all the sexists.
October 4th, 2012
5:41 pm
Then by your definition those who use the term women's or men's rights are sexist. I don't use those terms so I guess I am ok, how about you?
October 4th, 2012
5:50 pm
Retired Soldier,
Nice try, but no. My definition of a sexist is a man such as yourself, who is perfectly fine with lobbyists haunting the hallways of our Capitol, bullying and threatening majority-party legislators that they had BETTER vote "yes" on a bad bill, written by religio-nutcases who never went to medical school, condemned as harmful by practicing physicians, mandating guidelines for how physicians who only treat women are allowed to treat their patients' medical emergencies, stripping both the practical practice of medicine and personal decisions from what is supposed to be a private conversation/decision between doctor and patient. Give me a holler when you see the same thing happening with laws written by non-urologists about how urologists are allowed to treat your pecker. Thanks.
October 4th, 2012

Retired, that whole argument about religious institutions violating their faith was just another smokescreen for the religious zealots. Recently, a Bush appointed judge rejected a lawsuit brought by a Catholic business regarding the birth control ruling. Here is an excerpt from that ruling:
The burden of which plaintiffs complain is that funds, which plaintiffs will contribute to a group health plan, might, after a series of independent decisions by health care providers and patients covered by [an employer's health] plan, subsidize someone else's participation in an activity that is condemned by plaintiffs' religion. . . . [Federal religious freedom law] is a shield, not a sword. It protects individuals from substantial burdens on religious exercise that occur when the government coerces action one's religion forbids, or forbids action one's religion requires; it is not a means to force one's religious practices upon others. [It] does not protect against the slight burden on religious exercise that arises when one's money circuitously flows to support the conduct of other free-exercise-wielding individuals who hold religious beliefs that differ from one's own. . . .
[T]he health care plan will offend plaintiffs' religious beliefs only if an [] employee (or covered family member) makes an independent decision to use the plan to cover counseling related to or the purchase of contraceptives. Already, [plaintiffs] pay salaries to their employees—money the employees may use to purchase contraceptives or to contribute to a religious organization. By comparison, the contribution to a health care plan has no more than a de minimus impact on the plaintiff's religious beliefs than paying salaries and other benefits to employees.
The fuss about the BC ruling is nothing more than a bunch of religious zealots who feel that they should be able to force their beliefs on to everybody else. Contributing to a health plan that covers BC is not going to violate anybody's beliefs.
As for abortion, I stand by what I said earlier. Yes, there are going to be times when an abortion is necessary, and that's something that you and others are going to have to live with. If it were up to people like you, women would be forced to carry out medically complicated pregnancies that could kill them, the baby or both. Also, women would be forced to deliver babies that were conceived as the result of rape.

"Trickle-down government"? Is that the stage that the charter school movement is at now? And, if you give the Republicans sway, will that become stream-down government like with the private prisons movement, and later flood-down government like with the Defense-contractors?
October 4th, 2012
6:35 pm
"Trickle-down government"- Also known as keeping African Americans on the liberal plantation by giving them free stuff or government jobs in return for their continued support of Democrats only. Herman Cain (paraphrase)

Gablue….Check this out.
Back to the tinkle down economics..
How much did smitty SPEND on his zingers…..
What President Obama did not say, it was a debate, not about well crafted zingers
The former and soon to be former candidate reluctance to release more than two years of his income taxes. Democrats have questioned whether Romney – who has a fortune estimated at up to $250 million – is hiding something about his finances and why he keeps millions of dollars in offshore accounts.
President Obama did not mention Romney's work at Bain Capital, in sending thousands of jobs overseas.
And The most important the 47% of us Romnet calls scum…
Mitty/whinnie come clean on your Tax records
Save Big Bird!
Re-elect president OBAMA

"The former and soon to be former candidate reluctance to release more than two years of his income taxes"
You may just as well get used to saying, "President Romney".
"Democrats have questioned"
Democrats/Progressives/Socialists/Communists question everything that isn't 'steal from the producers and give to the non-producers', entitlements, anti-religion, pro-abortion, big government control, anti-free speech (if you don't agree with them), pro-homosexual and pro-Obama. So, what else is new?
"And The most important the 47% of us Romnet calls scum"
Romney NEVER said that, but it is in the nature of dimocrats to lie . . .
"Mitty/whinnie come clean on your Tax records"
President Romney has committed no crime re his taxes, which is a hell of a lot more than can be said of a great many of your messiah's appointees.

I would love to be able to take credit but it was not this white boy making the statement but rather Herman Cain. I have also heard similar statements from Dr. Thomas Sowell and leading conservative African Americans.
October 4th, 2012
9:31 pm
Guess I pushed the wrong button. You have no clue, besides what I write here, what I favor or don't favor. Your absurd attack simply demonstrates how far out of the main stream you are. I challenge you to find an instance where I have attacked someone like you just did. Sad.
One day maybe you will be able to civilly discuss issues, only then will you have a chance to achieve the goals you seek.
October 4th, 2012
9:42 pm
For every ruling by a judge you agree with I can find 10 that you wouldn't agree with. The Supreme Court will have the final say. I love that you point out the judge was a Bush appointee. I will give democratic presidents credit, I have never seen a democratic appointed judge turn conservative on the bench. I have seen many republican appointed judges turn liberal.
Abortion- I have never met or heard of anyone that advocates a mother should carry a child that threatens the mothers life. That is a red herring. Forced to carry a baby that might die? What does an abortion do? It assures the baby will die. Red herring number 2. Rape The majority, not all, but the majority of pro lifers, including the national pro life organization, includes an exception for rape and incest. Red Herring number 3.

It amazes me with all these amateur geniuses on the loose, how did we manage to elect the shrub and push the whole economy into the toilet?
And 8 years later, how did you all suddenly realize the damage and place the blame on the guy hired to clean it up?
So whether it is the sudden blaming of 'government' or 30 years of repeatedly trying a failed laffer curve theory in 'economics', I'm not willing to let republicans trickle on me any more!
October 4th, 2012

You make me glad that when 'crazy tony' and uncle tom go out for that very last pork sandwich, that President Obama will be quite ready to nominate replacements, and the Democratic Senate will be more than ready to pass them through with the proper advice and consent.

Sorry you don't like it, but it's not up to you.

9:57 pm
Health care or Social Security privatization, faith based initiatives could be seen as trickle down government as that term trickle down government is known. So could stimulus projects.
Whether military contracts might be called trickle down government is debatable in that the military is much like other infrastructure obligations of government that the public expects, not those they do not expect, nor those that are padded to produce excessive spending on the military.
Whether corporate deductions or tax credits might be viewed as trickle down government is certainly something that should be considered trickle down in that they are not at all an obligation of government, but favored by big business as lobbyists might lobby for to save corporations money, or to evade what would otherwise be taxes.
Might then nonprofit and religious tax exemption also be viewed as trickle down government?
Romney and the GOP may well be onto something here as a philosophy to think about unnecessary government spending.

Are you going on your Chris Matthews or Ed Shultz rant tonight? Did you finally realize that Romney can (in my opinion will) win this election because Obama is really an empty chair that has been propped up by the media, handlers and a teleprompter.

Just when you think all is well,then take a few steps the trickle down occurs.The all is well time represents Clintons years,the trickle down represent the Bush years.Dutasteride represent the Obama years.It takes time to correct all those trickle down years.No fast cure available.

0bama didn't fare well when the questions involved his handling of the issues (debt, economy, taxes, regulations) and he didn't have anyone to cover for him. (But of course, he assumes he'll win just because he's 0bama.) There are many more subjects 0bama doesn't want brought up regarding the way he's (badly) run things in the past 4 years, and plenty of mileage left on the above issues.
The bottom line is that Romney has plenty of ammunition left should he decide to use it.
October 4th, 2012

While I was on the phone on behalf of a client of A American company who has outsourced their part replacement off shore to the Philippines.Thank YOU Smitty.. I did a little searching and to Illustrate how Out of touch mitty is and since hid favorite phrase is Trickle Down:
The economic theory that if the richest people are made even richer, they will send more money down to the peons. Rightly dismissed by George Bush the Elder as voodoo economics. For some reason, it is seeing a resurgence as Republicans realize, to their delight, that people either don't remember that it doesn't work or were too young the first time it screwed up the US economy
Just sayin.
Re-elect President OBAMA.
October 4th, 2012

Trickle down economics vs Trickle down goverment…………. The only way Americans can win is to behave like foreigners in our own country. Keep your money and resources in your pocket and only spend it if it benefits your family.

Don't Tread
"The bottom line is that Romney has plenty of ammunition left should he decide to use it."
Well I have a few questions.
A. Does Smitty and his pet rhynnie live in the same America the rest of us do?
B. Has Smitty and his pet rhynnie ever struggled to make ends meet?
C. Does Smitty and his pet rhynnie have a clue what he is talking about?
D. Is Smitty and his pet rhynnie fit to be a garbage collector?
E. Can Smitty and his pet rhynnie tell the difference between Al Qaeda and Ali Baba?
Hint: Ali Baba's turbine is wound counter clock wise…For the GOP the hands
On the clock turn back wards.
Please answer the following questions using a number two pencil. Be sure to fill in the circles completely:
O (A) is true.
O (A and C are true)
O (B and D are true)
O (D) is true
O (E) None of the above is true
(E). is an alien from the planet Kolob (look it up). Former (candidate)/ Romney has essentially unlimited wealth. Former (candidate)/ Governor Romney talks out of both sides of his mouth. Former (candidate)/Governor Romney is unfit to be a dogcatcher. Former (candidate)/Governor Romney believes that Al Qaeda and Ali Baba are first cousins and we should launch cruise missiles and drones against them immediately.
Re-elect President OBAMA.

Retired, when you can give birth, come back and tell me that all men and women should have the same rights. You are a vile piece of work. People like you are why I left the Republican Party. When the religious nut jobs took over I decided I was no longer a Republican. Romney, at one time was a rational moderate because he believed in a woman's right to choose. I would have voted for that Romey. For the record, I am a mother of two fine young men and the grandmother of four fine children. I never had an abortion, but because of problems my husband had we never would have had ONE child without Planned Parenthood. This is an organization all you rabid Repugs want to eradicate. You make me want to vomit.

Todd; Kidd, Michael R.; McFarland, William N.; Loew, Ellis R. Abstract: Background Cichlid fishes have radiated into hundreds of species in the Great Lakes of Africa. Brightly colored males display on leks and vie to be chosen by females as mates. Strong discrimination by females causes differential male mating success, rapid evolution of male color patterns and, possibly, speciation. In addition to differences in color pattern, Lake Malawi cichlids also show some of the largest known shifts in visual sensitivity among closely related species. These shifts result from modulated expression of seven cone opsin genes. However, the mechanisms for this modulated expression are unknown. Results In this work, we ask whether these differences might result from changes in developmental patterning of cone opsin genes. To test this, we compared the developmental pattern of cone opsin gene expression of the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, with that of several cichlid species from Lake Malawi. In tilapia, quantitative polymerase chain reaction showed that opsin gene expression changes dynamically from a larval gene set through a juvenile set to a final adult set. In contrast, Lake Malawi species showed one of two developmental patterns. In some species, the expressed gene set changes slowly, either retaining the larval pattern or progressing only from larval to juvenile gene sets (neoteny). In the other species, the same genes are expressed in both larvae and adults but correspond to the tilapia adult genes (direct development). Conclusion Differences in visual sensitivities among species of Lake Malawi cichlids arise through heterochronic shifts relative to the ontogenetic pattern of the tilapia outgroup. Heterochrony has previously been shown to be a powerful mechanism for change in morphological evolution. We found that altering developmental expression patterns is also an important mechanism for altering sensory systems. These resulting sensory shifts will have major impacts on visual communication and could help drive cichlid speciation. 2008-05-23T00:00:00Z A trehalose 6-phosphate synthase gene of the hemocytes of the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus: cloning, the expression, its enzyme activity and relationship to hemolymph trehalose levels Chung, J.

Sook Abstract: Trehalose in ectoderms functions in energy metabolism and protection in extreme environmental conditions. We structurally characterized trehalose 6-phosphate synthase (TPS) from hemocytes of the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus. C. sapidus Hemo TPS (CasHemoTPS), like insect TPS, encodes both TPS and trehalose phosphate phosphatase domains. Trehalose seems to be a major sugar, as it shows higher levels than does glucose in hemocytes and hemolymph. Increases in HemoTPS expression, TPS enzyme activity in hemocytes, and hemolymph trehalose levels were determined 24 h after lipopolysaccharide challenge, suggesting that both TPS and TPP domains of CasHemoTPS are active and functional. The TPS gene has a wide tissue distribution in C. sapidus, suggesting multiple biosynthetic sites. A correlation between TPS activity in hemocytes and hemolymph trehalose levels was found during the molt cycle. The current study provides the first evidence of presence of trehalose in hemocytes and TPS in tissues of C. sapidus and implicates its functional role in energy metabolism and physiological adaptation. 2008-12-12T00:00:00Z

7 Smart Thoughts About Fact-Checking
In the aftermath of the conventions, we know politicians aren't exactly clear or honest in their speech, and the press handling of it opened up an interesting can of worms.
As BuzzFeed reported, Romney's aides (specifically pollster Neil Newhouse) laid down the law:
Fact checkers come to this with their own sets of thoughts and beliefs, and we're not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers.
After which (but not only because of), a flurry of writing and thinking about fact-checking in journalism ensued. Here are seven thoughts from that writing and thinking, that are interesting and insightful and worth nestling into the back of our minds to fortify the lenses with which we continue to watch politicians avert the truth, while journalists seek it. —Jihii
1. What's the purpose of pointing out lies in the first place?
Kevin Drum at Mother Jones, lays out the conundrum. What if, as Greg Sargent said in our post last week, it turns out that when the press calls a lie a lie, nobody cares? Drum writes:
There are two big problems with getting obsessed about "lies." The first is that it's usually too hard to prove. You have to show not only that something is unquestionably factually wrong, but that the speaker knew it was wrong. That's seldom possible. The second problem is that it's too narrow. Politicians try to mislead voters all the time, and only occasionally do they do this with flat-out lies. Bottom line: if you focus only on actual lies, you miss too much. But if you try to turn everything into a lie, you sound like a hack.
Most importantly, he offers a three step evaluation method to check statements in question.
2. What is effective fact-checking and how can journalists become more effective in reducing misleading claims?
Brendan Nyhan of the Columbia Journalism Review, highlights some of the broader issues in his criticism of the morning-after coverage of Paul Ryan's RNC speech and it's falsities:
The underlying problem with these analyses is the misguided conclusion that factchecking is a failure if it does not eliminate deception. From a scientific perspective, however, factchecking is effective if it reduces the prevalence of misleading claims relative to an otherwise identical world that lacks factchecking, which seems likely to be the case (though we lack direct evidence on this point).
Given current levels of polarization and media distrust, many voters will remain unpersuaded by factchecks, which in turn reduces the incentive for politicians to care what the media says. But journalists rightly espouse a creed that their highest duty is to the truth, not the marketplace or the people they cover.
And he offers some suggestions:
With that said, journalists could be more effective in responding to a pattern of false claims. First, they should remember to continue to remind readers—some of whom are just starting to tune into the campaign—that claims like those in the welfare ad are bogus.
Second, as The Atlantic's Garance Franke-Ruta has argued, reporters should cover a pattern of false claims as an ongoing story rather than ignoring it as old news.
3. Fact-checking alone is not enough.
Jay Rosen, in his wonderful Jay Rosen way, contextualizes things a bit:
If we start back in the 1990s and read forward to the current campaign, we see distinct phases of innovation as political journalists react to misleading ads: first, the ad watch phase in the 90s; there was some mention of misleading elements, but the final tally was about effectiveness, or what I call "savvy." The limitations of the ad watch led to direct fact-checking by the press, where actual grades are handed out. The emphasis is on judging truth and falsehood, not assessing effectiveness. So now we're in a new phase: fact checking alone is not enough. The campaigns seem able to override it, which does not mean they override it equally or with the same vengeance. So what's the next innovation?
4. Why is fact-checking in a separate category than reporting?
Dan Conover on Xark (via the Washington Post) brings up, quite succinctly, the fact vs. reporting journalistic culture we're living in:
What we call "fact checking" is simply traditional journalism dressed up in a modern gimmick. Poli-Fact and Glenn Kessler at the Washington Post aren't doing anything that couldn't be done in news stories. That we now place "fact" in a separate category from standard political reporting is a testament to a broken system, yet it doesn't change the system.
5. Is the press reluctant to delve into substantive issues for fear of being seen as biased, and instead hides behind neutrality?
Emilly Bell at The Guardian writes:
A major news network that doesn't say, even as the ovation continues, "hang on a minute", is surely falling short. The reluctance of American journalists to tackle the substantive issues raised by politicians, lobbyists, pressure groups and others for fear of being seen as "biased" forms part of a culture of "neutrality" that is essentially driven by economic forces but which is presented as an ethical touchstone.
The existence of a "fact-checking movement" which runs parallel to, but is not part of, the press shows how disjointed the process of informing the public has become. So much so that a former public editor of the New York Times attracted some ridicule earlier this year when he asked if it was the job of journalists to be "truth vigilantes".; given the prevailing conditions, however, one can see why he was asking the question even it if was phrased in a rather unfortunate way.
Every one of the 15,000 editors, correspondents, producers, gofers and commentators who packed into the convention last week should be asking themselves the same question. If the job of journalism is to strengthen democracy, and if you can't move in downtown Tampa for accredited press, why did Ryan and his team of speechwriters produce something so wilfully misleading? The ugly truth is, they did it because they could.
6. Fact-checking isn't just about truth v. falsehood.
James Pogue, in the Oxford American, a fact-checker himself, though not writing about political fact-checking, sheds some interesting light on this:
Not to be cute, but imprecision might not even be a very precise way of explaining what I'm looking for. But I'm certainly not just looking for falsehoods. Smaller research departments, or magazines that rely on interns, generally don't have the time, money, or will to do much beyond trying to figure out what's wrong in the piece, but our approach is much more abstract.
7. Effective fact-checking requires portions of wisdom, judgement, and perspective that are difficult (but so important) to manifest in proper balance.
And Conor Friedersdorf in The Atlantic, explains that very necessity by walking us through the fact-checking of a covert assassination program:
Insofar as fact-checking is an attempt to channel the spirit of what he is doing, I'm all for its spread. Insofar as fact-checking is an attempt to avoid the most difficult things about what he did, or to erect a substance-less bulwark against the inevitable blowback from those who disagree with one's analysis, I am wary of fact-checking. Without judgment and perspective, fact-checking gets us a national media that treats a campaign argument about when a plant in Janesville closed as a news-cycle capturing, watershed moment in dishonest politicking; while years of deliberately misleading Americans about a covert assassination program is basically ignored.

He's paying off their debt, she's adding to it
Spendthrift wife kept two secret credit cards.
The headline on JW's post at We Need To Be Debt Free says it all: "What's the use?" He's been working hard to aggressively pay off about $41,000 in non-mortgage debt, and then his wife revealed at a marriage-counseling session that she's been hiding -- and using -- two credit cards.
she mentioned it, I felt completely broadsided. It was like being run
over by a truck," he wrote. The damage to his debt-reduction plans?
Just over $4,300.
Goodness knows they aren't the first couple to deal with this problem. What makes JW's posts on this subject and so many others so compelling is the detail he shares about his debt-reduction plan and how the sacrifices it requires has affected family life. For instance, his teenage kids have been unhappy and threatened to move out.
Of course, we kept reading JW's blog to see how the latest family crisis was resolved. After his initial anger, JW and his wife sat down and talked things out.
She used the cards to help her disabled sister and also spent money
during a trip to visit one of their sons, who was recently diagnosed
with post-traumatic stress disorder after his last tour of duty.
JW added that "it appears that I haven't been as open or attentive to her needs as I probably should have been, which make me partially the blame for what occurred."
Here's the offshoot:
She will no longer use the cards.
She will get a part-time evening job, in addition to her day job, after agreeing to pay off the debt.
Their planned vacation to Alabama next summer has been postponed for a year.
Her monthly "blow money" has been cut in half, to $80.
With that problem behind them, they're now focusing on JW's health problems, including his need for a more healthy, but still affordable, diet.

Superior Grill has been rated consistently as one of Louisiana's best Mexican restaurants since 1983 when our first establishment opened in Shreveport. Our New Orleans location opened in 1997 and has become a landmark in fine quality foods with a festive Mexican atmosphere.
Superior's authentic Tex-Mex food is made from scratch every day with only the freshest ingredients. Our tortillas are hand-rolled with care all day long. For added flavor, all of our meats are cooked over a mesquite grill. We are proud of what we make and how we prepare it.
An extensive menu ensures that everyone can find something satisfying at Superior Grill. Start with one of our famous margaritas – made with freshly squeezed lime juice – and then try our other favorites, from sizzling fajitas and cheesy nachos to stuffed burritos and juicy steaks. Superior Grill is great for weekends too: stop in on Saturdays and Sundays between 11am and 3pm for our brunch menu.
Superior Grill is "the place to be" for happy hour, birthdays, office parties, and large groups. In addition to our festive indoor dining room, we offer a memorable outdoor dining experience on our landscaped patio featuring beautiful flowers and one of the best views of St. Charles Avenue. We also host several events throughout the year. Find out more here.
Superior Grill New Orleans is one of four locations including Shreveport, Baton Rouge, and Birmingham.
Poncho Cuellar is the Executive Chef at Superior Bar and Grill in New Orleans on beautiful St. Charles Avenue. Poncho was born in Austin, Texas and lived there while his father was working on his master's degree in business administration. Moving back to Mexico after his father finished his studies, Poncho grew up in border towns and cities like Juarez, Mexico and Eagle Pass, Texas.
Poncho's cooking is influenced by the cooking of both countries, from the authentic dishes of northern Mexican taquerias (mole, menudo, and carne asada), to the Tex-Mex style of San Antonio and Houston (enchiladas, chile con queso, fajitas, and quesadillas).
In 1987, Poncho decided to move from Eagle Pass to Houston, landing his first real restaurant job as a dishwasher and pizza-maker at Bombolino's, a new Italian concept by Mama Ninfa's. Moving quickly up the ladder, Poncho became a manager for one of the units and decided that the restaurant industry would be his life. With the help of a good friend, an investor of the Ninfa's corporation, and an SBA loan, Poncho became a Bambolino's franchisee at the age of twenty-one.
After a few years of operation, the Ninfa's corporation decided that it would shut down the Bambolino's brand and turn them into "Ninfa's Mexican Cafes." Poncho again became a Ninfa's franchisee.
After a couple of successful years, Poncho sold the restaurant to a group of investors and went back to Mexico. After a month in Mexico he was offered the position of chef and kitchen manager at Ninfa's Mexican Restaurant in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. After operating Ninfa's kitchen from 1994 to 1999, Poncho was asked to take over total kitchen operations of Superior Bar and Grill in New Orleans; an offer he couldn't refuse. Poncho knew this was "the job" when he was given the green light to do whatever it took to make Superior Grill the best Mexican restaurant in the city and in state of Louisiana.
Implementing the influences of the regions where he grew up, Poncho mixes the best of both worlds in his menus. Taqueria-style pork and brisket tacos and ceviche are served alongside Tex-Mex favorites like fajitas, burritos, puff tacos, and a variety of seafood items.
As Executive Chef Manuel "Poncho" Cuellar would say, "Mi casa es su casa, come and enjoy fabulous Mexican Dining y Margaritas Famosas."
Check out the restaurant!
Superior Grill offers convenient access to the best designated driver in town, the St. Charles Streetcar Line. Stop in and have a drink with us!

Is Katy Perry ready to open up to the world even more? Britain's The Sun is claiming that she's set to write an autobiography that will cover such topics as her marriage to and divorce from Russell Brand , plus her current relationship with John Mayer .
A source is quoted as saying, "Several publishers have been after Katy for a while. She decided to go ahead so fans don't have a one-sided story when Russell publishes another Booky Wook ."
The source was referring to Brand's two best-selling autobiographies, My Booky Wook and Booky Wook 2 , the latter of which was dedicated to Katy and was released before their split in late 2011.
Katy reportedly signed a deal worth two million British pounds, or approximately three million U.S. dollars, to write the book, supposedly titled Part of Me . The Sun doesn't mention the publisher.
You may recall that Katy's concert film/documentary last year was also titled Part of Me .

China, Germany and the Republican Party are all trying to bully the Federal Reserve into calling off its efforts to create jobs.
External Content
President Obama was not, it turns out, prepared to deal with the world he faced when he took office. And it still seems as if he isn't.
A process meant to deal with the nation's long-run fiscal problems has been hijacked on behalf of an ideological agenda.
As Ben Bernanke, the Fed chairman, tries to use monetary policy to aid the economy, he is getting the Obama treatment — and making the Obama response.
An extravaganza of quotes, charts, videos, cartoons and covers: http://theeconomist.tumblr.com/archive

Instead of focusing on how its policies play in the news, the Obama administration should be worrying about their actual effect on the economy.
Republicans are talking confidently about the midterm elections, which is cause for concern.
Ben Bernanke knows the dangers of deflation. So why isn't the Fed using its tools to head it off?
Business leaders may be feeling unloved, but giving them a group hug won't cure what ails the economy.
A coalition of the heartless, the clueless and the confused is blocking extended unemployment benefits. What can be done?

The Rottnest channel swim already allows rash guards, probably because many Aussies are descendents of pasty white folk...so the idea of *not* allowing sun protection would meet much more resistance there.

it puzzles me that stinger protection is scorned at by some on this forum yet in the jellyfish sting thread people were actively recommending medications such as Epipens

Here's the link to the documentary: http://www.swimfortheriver.com/index.html
But again, my concern is less about protective gear as it currently exists, and more about protective gear evolving over time into something that actually does enhance performance.

If the marathon swimming community doesn't support non-performance-enhancing protective gear, that will definitely happen. No one wants to develop a product for a market that doesn't exist. If the only market is people looking for an artificial boost, development has to head in that direction.
Munatones said:
Also on a related topic regarding allowed swimsuits, there was a discussion at Jamie's Swim Camp that jammers are allowed in channel swimming. After reviewing the Channel Swimming Association rules (which were established in 1927), the rule on swimsuits states, "A 'Standard Swim Costume' (for both sexes) shall be of a material not offering Thermal Protection or Buoyancy and shall be Sleeveless and Legless: "Sleeveless" shall mean the Costume must not extend beyond the end of the shoulder onto the Upper Arm;"Legless" shall mean that the costume may not extend on to the Upper Leg below the level of the crotch."
Munatones said:
So what is the consensus of the marathon swimming community? Are stinger suits to be allowed on solo marathon swims? If a stinger suit is used, is the swim considered to be a marathon swim or an assisted swim? There is less than a month to go before Penny swims from Cuba to Florida. Therefore, the global media will be soon reporting on her swim. What is the best way to come to a decision? A poll on the Marathon Swimmer's Forum? A vote by the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame board of directors? A coin toss? An arm wrestle with Ned Denison? [note: I am not being rude or silly, I am just pointing out how difficult it is to make a global decision that meets the criteria of all parties involved - former swimmers, contemporary swimmers, future swimmers, coaches, pilots, media, governing bodies]

Most people know that high blood pressure puts you at greater risk for heart attack and stroke. But you might be surprised to learn that high blood pressure can also damage the kidneys.
High blood pressure (140/90), also called hypertension, is the second leading cause of kidney disease in the United States, after diabetes. Neither high blood pressure nor kidney disease usually has symptoms. The best way to protect your kidneys is to have your blood pressure checked regularly.
High blood pressure can damage the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys that filter waste out of the blood. This affects the kidneys' ability to function and causes wastes to build up. The damage usually occurs slowly, over many years, and may not cause any symptoms at first, says the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHBLI). Often the only way to find out whether the kidneys have been damaged is with one of two tests: a urine test or a blood test.
Once the kidneys have been damaged, they usually don't recover. If the kidneys fail completely, the only options are dialysis or a kidney transplant. The NHLBI says that high blood pressure causes more than 25,000 new cases of kidney failure, or end-stage renal disease, every year. If kidney disease is caught in the early stages, though, it is possible to take steps to help the kidneys function for as long as possible. One of the most important ways to maintain kidney function is by controlling blood pressure. The NHLBI considers people with diabetes or chronic kidney disease who have a blood pressure of 130/80 mm Hg as hypertensive.
All Americans with high blood pressure are at risk for kidney disease, but African Americans are six times more likely than whites to develop kidney disease as a result of hypertension. People with diabetes and those who have a history of kidney disease in their family are also at a higher risk for kidney failure.
Many people can keep their blood pressure under control by making lifestyle changes. These changes include maintaining a healthy weight, limiting daily sodium intake, exercising, and limiting alcohol and caffeine consumption. For others, lifestyle changes are not enough to reduce blood pressure levels. They may need to take medications to accomplish this.

"The idea of this company is to be the next Starbucks of the chocolate industry," Rodriguez said.
"It's supposed to be as relaxed as Starbucks, but not coffee, it's chocolate," he said.
A new law for a new era
Though Rodriguez is excited about opening his shop in Arbutus, the option to sell their products online was not immediately available.
According to county law, a property such as the East Drive location that is zoned Business Local could be used for a candy store, "but goods made on the premises must be sold only at retail on the premises."
Because Jama Cocoa also wants to sell products on the Internet as well, 1st District Councilman Tom Quirk decided to create a bill for the County Council to allow that.
"I'm literally changing the law to help business in Arbutus," Quirk said.
His amendment to the bill states that a business may sell their goods online, but must maintain a retail storefront as well.
There was concern that, because the property includes a prominent storefront window on East Drive, retail might be sacrificed for online sales.
"Our concern was that we not lose the storefront window presence," said Terry Nolan, president of the Arbutus Business and Professional Association.
"If you're a nice candy store and you have nice candy in your window, that's certainly not a loss in any way," he said.
However, Quirk plans to ensure that retail face is upheld.
The County Council unanimously voted to approve an amendment to the bill stating, "except that retail sales may be supplemented with Internet sales provided that the retail component of the store fronts the street."
"Everybody saw the reason for this," Quirk said of the unanimous vote.
"I think that's the key thing, is that we're maintaining a retail frontage," Quirk said.
Quirk is excited to welcome the new business to the area and said it was time the law prohibiting online sales was altered.
"That's something we need to embrace," Quirk said of online retail. "And it's a code that's been long overdue for revision."
Nolan said he is glad compromise was reached and is eagerly anticipating the new chocolate store's opening.
"We welcome this business. We're glad we can reach an accord that will please everybody," Nolan said. "We look forward to their first batch (of candy)."

The Morphy Richards HBCD is an immersion hand blender that packs an impressive feature-set in a portable and compact body. The HBCD hand blender is an indispensible kitchen aid that helps you drastically cuts down on preparation times with its sheer versatility and power. This Morphy Richards blender is driven by a powerful 300 Watt motor that generates consistent torque for effective blending and chopping actions.
The chassis of the Morphy Richards HBCD hand blender is crafted from stain and chip-resistant plastic. The hand blender is designed to soak up the motor noise and vibration without transferring it to your hands. This allows for a comfortable grip even during extended usage like batter mixing.
The balloon whisk attachment in the HBCD hand blender is ideal for whipping egg whites and cream. It allows you incorporate extra air into the mixture and is great for whipping up a firm foam for soft icing pastries and meringues.
The HBCD hand blender ships with a chopping attachment with a unique centering method. It works by continuously forcing uncrushed food towards the blades for an even chopping action. The micro-serrated razor edge blades in the chopping attachment render a quicker and more effective shredding action. These can make quick work of even thick-skinned vegetables like potato and carrot. The measuring beaker attachment is perfect for whipping smoothies and milkshakes as the narrow, tapering design prevents liquid from splashing out.
This heavy duty blender is ideal for a wide array of operations including chopping vegetables, blending soups, whipping smoothies and pureeing fruit base for pies. The Morphy Richards HBCD hand blender is an extremely versatile appliance that offers several advantages over traditional countertop blender.
Apart from the ability to blend hot liquids, the stick design of the Morphy Richards HBCD hand blender allows you to use it directly on saucepans, pots and bowls. This means you do not have to transfer the soup to a different vessel or wait it for it to cool. Just stick the blender into the saucepan and turn it on and your thick, creamy soup is all done!
Safety and Convenience
The Twin speed setting on the HBCD hand blender gives you the convenience of choosing an optimal speed according to your requirement. The low speed setting gives a more crushing effect for chopping hard vegetables like potatoes, while the high speed gives a creamy texture to your milkshakes. It is advisable to start the appliance on a lower speed as it minimizes the chances of splashing.
The protective blade guard prevents the blade from slamming against the container; besides, the gap between the blade and guard delivers a sucking action for a more efficient blending. Cleaning the Morphy Richards HBCD blender is a no-frill procedure, thanks to the detachable leg. You just have to disassemble the metal shaft from the motor and rinse it under running water and it is good to go.
Though this Morphy Richards hand blender is designed to be used on hot fluids, it must not be used to on saucepans whilst it is still on the fire. The Easy locking system for the power shaft and the chopping attachment makes the HBCD extremely user-friendly and allows one-hand operation.

Vancouver Canucks defenceman Dan Hamhuis will have surgery early next week and may not be ready for the start of training camp, while fellow blueliner Christian Ehrhoff will avoid going under the knife.
Hamhuis left Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final early in the second period following a hip check from Boston Bruins forward Milan Lucic. It was later discovered that Hamhuis suffered a sports hernia, groin and lower abdomen injury.
It is not known exactly what surgical procedure will be required until doctors can have a closer look at the injury.
Hamhuis missed 18 games during the regular season with two separate concussions. He appeared in 19 post-season games for the Canucks, recording one goal and five assists and averaged 22:40 of ice time per game.
Ehrhoff will not require surgery to repair a shoulder injury he suffered in Game 3 of the Western Conference Final against the San Jose Sharks, instead, he's been told to take two-to-three weeks of rest.
The 28-year-old from Moers, Germany, was minus-13 with two goals and 10 assists in the playoffs.
Hamhuis and Ehrhoff are believed to be just two of a long list of Canucks players who were playing through some sort of injury.
There was speculation that Ryan Kesler and Henrik Sedin played hurt, but the team wouldn't confirm their injuries. Defenceman Alex Edler acknowledged he was playing Game 7 with a pair of broken fingers, while forward Chris Higgins reportedly played with a broken foot suffered in the second round.
