We�'re not the only ones with bikes on the brain; the fashion world�'s attention is centered on cycles too. There is an entire section devoted to bikes and bike outfits on photographer Scott Schuman�'s incredibly influential and thoroughly delightful website, The Sartorialist. Cynthia Rowley surprised the audience at her spring show and sent a handful of models down the runway on Beach Cruisers ($900). The floral print bikes were designed specifically for the show and come complete with a silver bell and wicker basket. You won�'t regret investing in one of these stellar accessories�--they�'re just so darn cute. If you are in need of something a little edgier (and aren�'t concerned about your budget in the slightest) we must point out that Karl Lagerfeld also created a bicycle for Chanel�'s S/S 08 collection. The chic cycle is detailed with a quilted leather seat, jeweled pant clips, and a saddlebag inscribed with the renowned logo ($13,595, 800.550.0005). Clearly it�'s a one of a kind piece that belongs to an art collector or true enthusiast.
When dressing oneself for a bike outing, you will inevitably encounter certain restrictions, but (as the slew of ladies pictured above prove) biking can be done sans spandex. We think heels are a cycling faux pas, so show off a great pair of flat shoes instead. You can flirt with your tomboy side, as Karolina Kurkova did while riding in South Beach earlier this year, and wear a classic pair of lace-up Chucks ($47). If you aren�'t a sneakers kind of gal, we think you�'ll embrace Uma Thurman and Kate Hudson�'s preference for sandals and opt for something effortless like Jill Stuart�'s Tina Metallic Flats ($114).
Of course, the biggest dress-code dilemma is figuring out what to do with your purse while pedaling along. We think you should keep your hands free and your handlebars unencumbered by toting an across-body bag à la Agyness Deyn. The model demonstrated the look on her recent nighttime ride through the Meatpacking District with Rebecca Minkoff�'s Morning After Clutch ($325, preorder 8/15). Happy biking! �--Jessica Amento

Library a step away from shelving its two-board system
By Ashley Rader
The Elizabethton Library board ratified the by-laws for the new joint Elizabethton/Carter County Public Library board during a meeting Tuesday afternoon.
The Elizabethton board and the Carter County library board have been working to form a single joint library board to oversee the operations of the library. The ECCPL is the only library in Tennessee still having two boards, and the boards started working toward consolidation after the state recommended it be done.
The by-laws for the new board state the combined group will have nine members; five from the city, two from the county, and one representative each from the Business and Professional Women's Club and the Friends of the Library. The board will meet bi-monthly.

Consequences of Suppressed Grief
Grief work or grieving is a necessary process that one should go through in the event of any loss, be it death of a dear one or something else. Rituals like funerals and memorials are a common, necessary part of the grieving process that have helped people in expressing their feelings of sadness and sorrow by sharing emotions with family and friends. They also provide the much-required contact with death for those who joined such rituals to express their solidarity with the grieving family.
Things have changed over the years, and society has evolved in a manner where people grow up without an extended family or friends. One of the direct outcomes of this evolution is that people have very little contact with death, and find it difficult to cope with grief when death strikes someone close. Attending funerals of distant relatives and family friends actually prepares people towards accepting it as an inevitable reality.
Unresolved grief or its suppression can lead to serious consequences. There has been a lot of discussion about this, and many theories have been propounded on the process of grief. The mental health community is now exploring dimensions other than sorrow. Their focus is now upon the wider relationship between the comparative quantity, magnitude, or degree of grief and its suppression, as well as its overall affect on mental and physical health of individuals. Unresolved grief can cause various issues, including:
- Stress- Unresolved grief can lead to a lot of stress. Reactions under stress include physical dysfunctions that can enhance one's susceptibility to disease and aggravate existing physiological problems.
- Perception- While an individual's cognitive abilities are instrumental in conquering grief, the same abilities can be hampered by prolonged grief. This can lead to impulsive actions and hasty decisions that may prove to be harmful or lead to accidents.
- Spiritual- A crisis of sorts occurs when there is an emphasis on suppressing grief rather than attaining a positive attitude for emotional wellness. Well-embedded assumptions and values are questioned. Questions like "why me" and "what did I do to deserve this" often lead to loss of faith and inner peace.
Besides an individual's own perception and reasoning, an equally significant part is played by the family and communal response to the loss. How one goes about controlling emotions also depends upon on the culture that one is born in, the influence that it has, and the available support system. These factors have a significant effect upon expression of grief and the ability to cope with the stress caused by it.
Denial of reality is dangerous, and refutation of a loss is no exception. Denial has far-reaching consequences that may surface as physiological or psychological problems. Grief should neither be denied nor suppressed. The sooner one accepts reality, the better it is for one's physical and emotional health.

To say the least, Seel is quite the unorthodox Pokemon in Little Cup. It has decent defenses, along with a nice typing in Water. However, it lacks an instant recovery move, so it cannot be as bulky as other Water-types such as Slowpoke. It also has plenty of priority attacks to mitigate its mediocre Speed, though it doesn't have the attacking stats to make the most of said priority attacks. Finally, it has a decent support movepool as well, but the lack of Speed and instant recovery prevents it from being a better Pokemon in that regard. All in all, Seel is a decent Pokemon that lacks anything really great, preventing it from being an otherwise fantastic Little Cup Pokemon.
This set attempts to make the most of the offensive movepool Seel has. The priority attacks compensate for lack of Speed, but unfortunately have quite low power. Fake Out induces flinching, something very important when up against other faster Pokemon. Aqua Jet gets STAB, and is Seel's best option when it comes to revenge killing. Ice Shard hits Dragon-types for super effective damage. Waterfall gives Seel a more powerful STAB attack, while Return gets good coverage alongside Aqua Jet, meaning that Seel will hit everything neutrally with its four attacks, bar Frillish. Life Orb is the best item, remedying the low attack power of Seel's priority attacks. Ice Body is the preferred ability as Seel has good synergy with Snover by covering its glaring Fire-type weakness. Thick Fat provides extra resistance to Fire- and Ice-type attacks which can come in handy when dealing with threats like Larvesta. Hydration isn't very effective because of the prevalence of sandstorm and hail, hindering its usefulness. In addition, this set doesn't mind most status conditions, except for burn.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Seel has a multitude of other moves at its disposal, but it cannot effectively use some or even most of them. It can use Rain Dance + Hydration with Rest, Toxic, and Eviolite as a support set, but Rain Dance isn't permanent and the set would be beaten all too easily by Giga Drain Snover. However, it could use the combination with Perish Song over Toxic and Whirlpool to trap and KO Pokemon, but the set is very gimmicky. However, it is an effective way to trap and KO Dragon Dance Scraggy. It has a decent special movepool with Surf, Ice Beam, Hidden Power, and Signal Beam, but its Special Attack and Speed aren't great, and this set would be easily outclassed by Chinchou. It has access to Stockpile, a reliable move to increase its defenses, but it lacks a recovery move outside of Rest. Disable is an option to possibly prevent an opponent from boosting its stats, but the move is too risky and gimmicky for it to work effectively. Seel has Encore, but both Cottonee and Wynaut are much better users of the move. It can use Endure with a Liechi Berry in addition to priority attacks to inflict a good amount of damage while not losing to other priority users, but it would still be countered by a lot of Pokemon.
Checks and Counters
Physical walls such as Slowpoke, Bronzor, and Ferroseed are the best possible counters to Seel, since they can easily sponge its attacks and set up in its face. Chinchou is also great, since it is able to threaten a super effective Thunderbolt and easily OHKO. Electric-types in general fare well against Seel, since most can stave off an Aqua Jet and retaliate with an Electric-type attack. Grass-types are in the same boat, with most able to take an Ice Shard and KO back with a super effective attack. Snover is a great option, since it can easily KO and heal any damage with Giga Drain. Wynaut traps Seel, and can take it down with Counter.

After July's bold move to liberalize recruiting rules, the Division II Management Council devoted time at its meeting this week responding to concerns that have been raised in the interim.
When the Division II membership convenes at the January Convention, it will vote on an important collection of proposals to change recruiting-contact legislation. Read More
In July, the Management Council proposed moving up the permissible date for all contact, including telephone calls and text messaging, to June 15 before a prospect's junior year in high school. The recommended change, subsequently backed and sponsored by the Division II Presidents Council, was designed to ease administrative burden and to bring athletics recruiting practices more in line with the way institutions recruit students in general.
The Council remained strongly committed to the legislation after its meeting Monday and Tuesday, although it noted concerns expressed by student-athlete groups, coaches and members of the compliance community.
"The Management Council had a great discussion about these proposals," said Council chair Rick Cole, director of athletics at Dowling. "We understand that segments of our membership may have concerns, but after our review Monday, I feel more strongly than ever that we're on solid ground."
Discussion at the fall Council meeting focused on the following areas:
Unlimited contact would expose prospects to unwanted intrusion. This appears to be the most common concern. The proposal would make no distinctions between forms of contact, meaning that coaches would be allowed unlimited use of everything from faxes to text messages in pursuit of recruits. While that's literally true, Council members continue to believe that coaches who send unwanted text messages will be ineffective, making the proposal largely self-regulating.
Further, Council members questioned whether the attention is necessarily unwanted. Cole noted a recent Chronicle of Higher Education article describing how three institutions are emphasizing texting in efforts to recruit students to the general student body.
As for prospective Division II student-athletes, Council members noted that many – perhaps most – are lightly recruited and might welcome the additional information that would result from the proposed rule. They said the earlier contact might be especially helpful in relaying information about NCAA rules, such as academic requirements. Proponents noted a parallel between that sort of communication and current legislation, which permits unlimited texting after prospects have signed (to provide them with valued information about enrollment).
The Division II Student-Athlete Advisory Committee discussed electronic communication in recruiting at its summer meeting, with one preliminary observation being that texting was not a sufficiently sophisticated medium for something as important as determining what college to attend. At their recent meeting, however, Council members concluded that the texting medium is not inherently unsophisticated. Rather, the casual image comes from shorthand, lingo and abbreviations, none of which are obligatory on the part of the sender.
Finally, Council members did not believe they should refrain from legislating because of the impression that young people claim to "own" the medium of text messaging. They noted that texting is now widely accepted across all age groups; further, the attitudes of today's college students may differ from current 13-year-olds who would be affected by the legislative change.
Moving up the permissible contact date by a year would burden coaches with extra work. The administrators who make up the Management Council understood how coaches might feel as though the new legislation would require them to recruit all prospects for an extra year. At the same time, they questioned whether coaches are seeing the opportunities that an additional year of contact would provide. "Coaches say it's an extra year of recruiting," one Council member said. "But you can flip it. Right now, you don't get an extra year to make your case."
One Council member who also coaches stressed that the current schedule provides little time for getting to know prospects and their parents on a personal level. "As I watch prospects compete, I find I'm in a trance about how physically gifted they are," she said. "But you don't have much time to get to know them personally." Having that information could help her be a better steward of the school's resources, she said.
Liberalized recruiting rules are supposed to ease administrative burden, but monitoring would still be required. Specifically, compliance officials would still have to track on the first contact date (June 15 before a prospect's junior year) and on periods when contact is restricted.
The Management Council seemed least tolerant on this point. The broad response was that the Legislation Committee's charge was to ease administrative burden, not to eliminate it.
Council members noted that the proposal would not set aside the contact restrictions that exist in the football and men's and women's basketball recruiting calendars. If coaches in other sports abused their opportunities, similar restrictions could be added as necessary.
In general, however, they rejected the belief that rampant abuse would result from unlimited contact opportunities.
"Coaches say they won't bother recruits themselves, but that others will (and that they need to be controlled)," said one administrator. "But the NAIA has no recruiting rules at all, and no one's died. The fact is that only a small number of kids will ever get an off-campus contact."

PART OF PARSONS FESTIVAL 2012: Responding to the notion of "living and creating within a specific city," students from Parsons The New School for Design (in New York City) and California College of the Arts (in San Francisco) collaborated on a poster project informed by interviews between assigned partners from each school on their subjective viewpoint of their host "_(city)_" while attending art college. Each CCA student designed 50 percent of the poster artwork after selecting a question, answer, and related image from the interview with their partner's interpretation of their "_(city)_ ." The posters were then sent to Parsons students for their design of the remaining 50 percent, based upon the project criteria. After the poster project was completed, it was displayed at both CCA and Parsons.
This was collaboration between the classes of Pablo A. Medina, an assistant professor at Parsons who is in residence at CCA for the spring 2012 semester, and Aaron Brashear, adjunct professor at Parsons.
This event is part of Parsons Festival 2012.

Salt Lick Lodge packed us three lunches, and we planned to stay all day, returning around 6 p.m. to the lodge. We had heard from other guides in Tsavo West that there were more animals to be seen in Tsavo East and indeed there were. We finally saw giraffes; cape buffalo; hippos; crocodiles; Gerenuk, also called gazelle giraffes (gazelles who stand on their hind legs and eat leaves from the trees); and cute little Dikdiks, which are tiny deer-like animals. We hadn't seen any of these animals at Tsavo West.
It had rained heavily at Tsavo East the day before, so many roads were blocked due to flooding. Since it was a holiday, there were quite a lot of cars and safari vans around.
We ate our lunch in the van under a tree at
Aruba Dam. The lunch box had a sandwich, a chicken thigh and leg, an orange, an apple, a box of orange juice, a piece of marble cake, and napkins. We were usually never allowed outside the safari vehicle, but at Lugard Falls there is a lookout where you can park and walk about 20 feet to view the falls. It is there that we spotted the hippos and crocodiles. They were across the Galana River, but with the binoculars, they were easily observed.
We ended the day with a visit to Voi Safari Lodge for a Tusker beer (Dominic, however, drank a Coke). This lodge also has a watering hole, but it is further down the hill. There is a beautiful view from the bar and restaurant over the flat landscape below. The drive this day lasted 11 hours from the time we left Salt Lick Lodge until the time we returned. As it was such a long day, we told Dominic that we wouldn't do the early game drive the next day so that we could all sleep in. He was very happy at this news.
From journal A Heavenly Kenyan Safari
As it had rained for a few days, there weren't many animals near the water holes in front of the lodge, making the game drives more important. During our many drives, we came across lions, zebra, baboon, impala, waterbucks, tortoises, ostriches, lots of different birds, smaller animals and even dung beetles. We brought our binoculars and camera with us. I wish we had brought at least 10x binoculars (ours were 7X) and a camera with more zoom. Still, every sighting was a thrilling event. Dominic could spot things very far away with his bare eyes. We got better at spotting as our experience increased. We would drive slowly until someone saw an animal. I learned how to say, "please stop," in Swahili, which is what I'd blurt out when spotting something. You say, "Tafadhali Simama.
After the morning drive, we would return to the lodge for a buffet breakfast, ready to share our sightings with anyone who would listen. The afternoon drives would find us taking a different route than the morning drive, returning after 2 hours and heading straight for the deck outside the bar to have a Tusker beer and spot more animals if they were about.

Teaming Up On Treats
By Steve Lathrop courtes of Albany Democrat-Herald
Austin Mendoza obviously knew what he was doing. The 11-year-old pounded ,kneaded and rolled his mixture of peanut butter and rolled oats to the perfect consistency so the others at this table could get the most out of their cookie cutters.
Mendoza was among about a dozen members of Boys and Girls Glub of Albany who are partnering with residents at Timberwood Court Memory Care to make pet treats for SafeHaven Humane Society. "This is my second time so I know what to do," said Mendoza as he passed the lump of dough to Matt Hausotter and Tanner Fromcke who in turn carefully cut out small treats in the shape of a dog bone. The treats are baked and then taken to SafeHaven by both the kids and the Timberwood residents to feed to the animals at the shelter.
That collaboration has benefitted the kids, residents and the animals. "It was a chance to expand what we do for SafeHaven," said Laura Ellis, marketing director at Timberwood. "Our residents enjoy visiting there. This adds to that experience."

Republicans have expressed concern that social welfare spending is deepening an already serious deficit situation. They have also suggested that continuing to subsidize people who aren't working limits their incentive to aggressively seek employment.
How is that only representing the Democratic viewpoint? The story expressly represents the Republican viewpoint, with no castigation evident.
Paragraph two: "Last week, Republicans once again blocked an effort by House Democrats to extend the program into the new year."
Paragraph four: "Another 29,000 Oregonians face loss of coverage over the course of the next six months if Republicans continue to block extension of benefits."
Paragraph five: "It is unconscionable that House leadership (Republicans) did not let us vote on legislation to extend unemployment benefits before adjourning for the year,"
Nice attempt at some kind of a neutral make-up in paragraph seven.
So back to the question, "How long does the News-Register staff think that the federal emergency unemployment compensation program should exist?"

A group of architects, designers, and artists lists the top ten places, people, and things that define the city, and we join the fun with our own list of icons.
A group of ten architects, designers, and artists recently got together to make a list of ten iconic places, people, and objects that capture the soul of Chile's capital.
But in a city as vibrant and eclectic as Santiago, any list of symbols is bound to generate controversy, and plenty of much-loved sites are bound to be left out.
So today we're going to feature the "expert list" of Chile's icons, while in tomorrow's article we'll posit an alternative This is Chile top ten. Meanwhile, make sure you head to our Facebook page to let us know what you think is a true symbol of Santiago.
The expert list:
1. Centro Cultural Gabriela Mistral (GAM)
This striking building in the heart of Santiago is not only one of the most architecturally distinctive in the city. It's also the beating heart of its cultural scene, with auditoriums that host dance, theater, and musical performances, permanent and temporary exhibition spaces, as well as a library.
2. La Moneda
The imposing white presidential palace occupies an entire block of downtown Santiago and the changing of its security guard is a popular attraction. It also boasts a subterranean cultural center.
3. Río Mapocho
The mighty Mapocho flows down from the Andes to bisect Santiago. While it may not be the deepest or clearest river in Chile, it's an important landmark of the capital, and its banks are lined with many of the city's best parks, sculptures, and murals.
4. Neon signs at Rancagua and Diagonal Paraguay
These two neon signs date from the 1950s and were declared National Monuments in 2010. One is on the corner of Diagonal Paraguay and Vicuña Mackenna, and is an advertisement for lingerie, the other is a few blocks away on Rancagua and Bustamante, and advertises champagne.
5. Teleférico
These cable cars ran atop another Santiago icon, Cerro San Crístobal, a hill that overlooks the city. Temporarily closed in 2009, they are in the process of repairs.
6. Metro Logo
In 2012 the Santiago Metro was awarded best metro in the Americas, and its symbol is fittingly distinctive.
7. Antique bus signs
When the city began transitioning into the modern Transantiago system in 2005, the buses that had served the city for decades became an endangered species. The charming hand-painted signs in each bus that advertised its stops soon became a collectors item, and are now beloved symbols of Santiago nostalgia.
8. The Andes
No matter how lost you are in Santiago you can always orient yourself. The dramatic, snow-capped mountains that you see are the Andes. They mark east.
9. Tajamares of the Mapocho
Large chunks of 18th and 19th century era tajamares, called cutwaters in English, can be found along the banks of the Río Mapocho, remains of colonial infrastructure built to tame the river. An outdoor tajamar museum can be found in Parque Balmaceda, next to Metro Salvador.
10. Sopaipillas carts
These carts, hawking deep-fried snacks called sopaipillas, can be found on thousands of street corners the city round. Going for around US$0.25, they have saved many a poor student, or broke traveler, from an empty stomach. Ideal served with pebre, Chile's signature tomato, onion, chili, and cilantro sauce.

In-person early voting in Hamilton County has been given a minimum price tag: $18,676. That's how much The Cincinnati Enquirer says it will cost to staff polling booths in downtown Cincinnati during the early voting hours directed by Secretary of State Jon Husted.Unfortunately, in an effort to appear as if the early voting issue has two sides, the Enquirer never bothered putting the number in context. The article reads as if that number, which amounts to $406 an hour, is a big expense for Hamilton County. In reality, the additional cost would amount to about 0.009 percent of the 2012 county budget — a rounding error in the $206 million budget.
The number is important because costs are the top
non-racist concern Republicans bring up when opposing more early voting
hours. The other concerns are empowering military voters above normal citizens, which contradicts the entire point of civilian control of the military and ignores mail-in absentee ballots, and voter fraud, which is completely overblown by Republicans.
Over the weekend, Ohio's early voting battle caught national headlines again when Doug Preisse, chairman of the Franklin County Republican Party, told The Columbus Dispatch in an email, "I guess I really actually feel we shouldn't contort the voting process to accommodate the urban — read African-American — voter-turnout machine." The statement echoed earlier statements from former Florida Republican Chairman Jim Greer, who told MSNBC that voting restrictions are an attempt to limit voting from minorities and younger voters.
The admission to racial politics confirmed suspicions from Democrats that limiting early voting hours is at least partly about suppressing the vote among demographics that typically vote Democrat.
The estimate comes in the middle of an ongoing controversy
regarding in-person early voting hours. Husted
said Wednesday that counties must all follow the same early voting
hours. But the hours excluded early voting during the weekend, much to
the dismay of state Democrats. In response, Democrats in Montgomery
County, which is where Dayton is, decided to try having weekend voting
anyway, and Husted suspended and threatened to fire the Democrats on the
Montgomery County Board of Elections. Democrats were not happy with the threats.
Ohio Democrats held a rally in Columbus this morning in
support of Montgomery County Democrats. The Dayton-area Democrats appeared in a hearing with Husted today to see if they will be fired
from the Montgomery County Board of Elections. A decision will be given later in the week.
At the hearing, Dennis Lieberman, one of the Democrats on the Montgomery County Board of Elections, said he "was not put on the board of elections to be a puppet." Lieberman also pointed out that Montgomery County saved $200,000 in the 2008 elections by lowering the amount of precincts required with weekend voting.
The controversy is following up an earlier controversy about county-by-county discrepancies in early voting hours — an issue Hamilton County barely avoided when Husted directed county boards to invoke uniform in-person early voting hours across the state a day before Hamilton County Board of Election hearings.
Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted announced today he will direct Ohio's county boards of election to adopt standardized early voting hours.
In-person early voting begins on Oct. 2. In a directive, Husted said he wants the first three weeks to be kept to standard voting hours, or 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays. An exception is made for Oct. 9, which will have voting hours of 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., to make up for polls being closed on Oct. 8 in observance of a state holiday.
For the final two weeks of early voting, Husted said he wants hours extended to 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Another exception is made for the final day of early voting — Nov. 2 — that has voting hours last from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. because state law requires all early voting ends at 6 p.m. on Nov. 2.
The polls will still not be open on weekends throughout the entire process, however.
The news comes amid a state issue that has gained national attention in recent weeks. Democrats have been accusing state Republicans of suppressing Democratic votes by extending in-person early voting hours in predominantly Republican counties and keeping shorter hours in predominantly Democratic counties.
Ohio Democrats are not pleased with the call to uniform rules. Jerid Kurtz, spokesperson for the Ohio Democratic Party, told CityBeat yesterday that the call for uniform rules is "pure silliness." He said counties have differences, so they need different voting rules. He called on Husted to stop worrying about uniformity and county budgets and instead worry about managing elections and "empowering people to vote."
Today, Democrats released another statement lashing out at the uniform rules. In a statement released shortly after Husted's press conference, Chris Redfern, chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party, said the new directive was limiting voting access by eliminating weekend voting and slashing hours.
However, the directive will actually extend early voting
hours in the predominantly Democratic counties of Lucas, Cuyahoga,
Summit and Franklin that were bound to the old hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout the entire early voting process.
Just a day before the approval of Ohio's new district maps, Tom Whatman, a Boehner staffer, sent an email to Adam Kincaid, a staffer for the National Republican Congressional Committee, and others in charge of redistricting. In the back-and-forth, Whatman asks for a "small carve out" to include a manufacturing business in the congressional district for Rep. Jim Renacci, a Republican who has received support from the business in the past. Before 13 minutes had passed, Kincaid replied to Whatman, securing the change with no questions asked.
"Thanks guys," Whatman replied. "Very important to someone important to us all."
The Voters First graph, which mocks the 13-minute exchange with the title "Jim Renacci: The 13 Minute Man," can be found here. The full emails, which were released by the Ohio Campaign for Accountable Redistricting in a Dec. 2011 report, can be seen online here.Jim Slagle, who served as manager for the Ohio Campaign for Accountable Redistricting, says the emails are indicative of a redistricting process that is controlled entirely by "political insiders." Slagle says the interests of the people come second to politics under the current system.
If Issue 2 is approved by voters this November, the redistricting process will be placed in the hands of an independent citizens commission. Under the current system, the state government is tasked with redrawing district boundaries every 10 years. Republicans have controlled the process four out of six times since 1967, which is when the process was first enacted into law. The political party in charge typically redraws districts in a politically favorable manner in a process known as "gerrymandering."
On Saturday, Rep. Steve Chabot, who represents Cincinnati in the U.S. House of Representatives, told supporters to vote against Issue 2. Chabot is enormously benefiting off the current redistricting process. Cincinnati's district was redrawn to include Warren County, which has more rural voters that typically vote Republican, and less of Cincinnati, which has more urban voters that typically vote Democrat. The shift to less urban voters is emphasized in this graph by MapGrapher:
Just when I thought Sarah Palin had made a valid point, she goes and shows just how spineless and hypocritical she is.
The former Alaska governor and one-time Republican vice presidential nominee made a big deal last week about the use of the slur "fucking retarded" by White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Palin, who is the mother of a child with Down syndrome, said the remark was inappropriate and that Emanuel should be fired. We agreed, although for various reasons.
A judicial conduct panel ruled this week that the primary election opponent of a local Municipal Court judge knowingly misrepresented himself in campaign materials.
The panel decided that retired appellate court judge William O'Neill from Cleveland left the impression that he is a current judge in a two-sided campaign card he distributed. In fact, O'Neill now works as an emergency room nurse at a hospital.
O'Neill and Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Fanon Rucker are vying to be the Democratic Party's nominee for the Ohio Supreme Court.
Whoever wins the March 6 primary election will face off against incumbent Justice Robert Cupp, a Republican, in the November general election.
The three-judge panel upheld the complaint filed by Richard Dove, secretary of the Ohio Supreme Court's Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline. The panel said O'Neill's campaign card refers to him nine times as "judge,'' while describing him as "former court of appeals judge'' once.
"The fact that he is known as judge because of his tenure on the 11th District Court of Appeals and that as a retired judge he is known as a judge, he nevertheless as a judicial candidate is prohibited from using the term 'judge' before his name in campaign materials since he does not currently hold that office,'' wrote Guernsey County Common Pleas Judge David Ellwood, who chaired the three-judge panel.
The panel recommended no discipline for O'Neill other than he stop distributing the card. A 5th District Court of Appeals judge must appoint a panel of five fellow appellate judges within the next week to consider the lower panel's recommendations and make a final decision.
Rucker is the Ohio Democratic Party's endorsed candidate, but O'Neil has twice before — in different races — had party leaders rescind an endorsement and give it to him.
O'Neill has run twice for the state Supreme Court — in 2004 and 2006 — and then Congress in 2008 and 2010. Although he has won in the primaries, O'Neill has lost in the general elections.
Local Democratic Party leaders are criticizing O'Neill, stating he is moving too slowly to remove misleading material from his campaign website.
"While Mr. O'Neill promised Monday to make the required corrections, as of this writing on Wednesday, Feb. 29, his website remains unchanged," Hamilton County Democratic Party Chairman Tim Burke wrote in a statement issued Wednesday night.
"This is not the kind of conduct we as Democrats should condone by any of our candidates, especially candidates running for a seat on the highest court of our state," Burke added. "Ohioans deserve a Supreme Court candidate who not only understands the law, but respects it as well."
For more on the O'Neill/Rucker race, see this week's issue of CityBeat.
In the first of three debates for Ohio's seat in the U.S.
Senate, Democratic incumbent Sherrod Brown and Republican challenger Josh
Mandel agreed on little and clashed on a lot. Each candidate mostly focused on the opposing candidate's record, but the debate today did move to substantial differences in policy at some
The debate started with opening statements from a noticeably feisty Brown, who criticized Mandel for calling his vote for the auto bailout "un-American." On the other side of the aisle, Mandel began his opening statement with a joke about shaving before he turns 36. The joke was the last time either of the men spoke with a light heart.
The candidates blasted each other mostly for their records. Mandel touted Ohio's and the nation's higher unemployment rate since Brown took office in 2006, energy prices and the U.S. debt. He also said the Senate had not passed a budget in three years, although Congress has actually passed budget resolutions in that time.
Brown fired back with claims Mandel had filled the state treasurer's office with cronies. He also criticized Mandel for running for four different political offices in seven years. In his closing statement, Brown said Mandel is "too concerned about running for his next job" to be trusted.
On substance, Brown and Mandel criticized just about everything about each other. Brown claimed Mandel signed away his "right to think" by agreeing to lobbyist Grover Norquist's pledge to not raise taxes while in office. He said the pledge makes it so if Mandel does take office, he'll never be able to close tax loopholes for big corporations.
Mandel defended the pledge by saying, "I'm proud to stand
for lower taxes in our state and lower taxes in our country." He added, "I will
do everything I can to advocate for lower taxes across the board for the middle
class and job creators as well."
The term "job creators" is typically used in politics to reference wealthy Americans, who Republicans claim create jobs through the theory of trickle-down economics. The economic theory states that wealthy Americans will hire more lower-class Americans if they have more money and freedom, essentially creating a trickle-down effect on wealth from the rich to the poor. Although Republicans still tout the theory, some economists, including Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman, say the financial crisis of 2008 and the deregulation that led to it prove trickle-down economics do not work.
The candidates also debated their positions on the auto bailout. Mandel said he would not have voted for the auto bailout if he was in the Senate in 2009. In his defense, he cited the experience of Delphi workers, who lost part of their pensions as part of the deal auto companies made with workers after the federal bailout. Mandel then said, "I'm not a bailout senator. He's the bailout senator."
Brown responded by saying, "These are real jobs and real people." He then cited examples of people helped by the growing auto industry. Brown's arguments are backed by economic data, which has repeatedly credited the growing auto industry for the nation's growing economy. In the first quarter of 2012, the auto industry was credited for half of the nation's economic growth.
When he was asked about higher education, Brown established the key difference between the candidates in terms of economic policy. Brown said his policies in favor of government investment in higher education are about supporting the middle class to create growth that starts in the middle and spreads out, while Mandel supports tax cuts that emphasize a trickle-down approach. Mandel did not deny the claims, and instead blamed Brown's policies for the high unemployment rate and debt issues.
The men continued to show similar contrasts on the budget, taxes and economy throughout the entire debate, but there seemed to be some common ground regarding energy independence. When the topic came to hydraulic fracturing — or "fracking" — Brown said becoming energy independent would have to involve all possible energy sources. In substance, Mandel agreed, although he also praised fracking regulations recently passed by the Ohio legislature and Gov. John Kasich.
As far as energy issues go, the agreement stopped there. When Brown was asked about President Barack Obama's alleged "war on coal," Brown said there was no war on coal and claimed there are more coal jobs and coal produced in Ohio than there were five years ago. Mandel disagreed and claimed there is a war on coal. He added if Obama is the general in the war on coal, Brown is Obama's "lieutenant." Brown previously supported federal regulations on mercury that some in the coal industry, including the Ohio Coal Association, claim will force coal-fired power plants to shut down. The regulations go into effect in 2015.
On abortion, Mandel proudly claimed he was pro-life, while Brown said, "Unlike Josh Mandel, I trust Ohio women to make their own health care decisions." Brown also criticized Mandel for not establishing exceptions for rape, incest and the health of the mother in his anti-abortion stance.
Many more issues, from term limits to Middle Eastern culture, were covered in the debate. The candidates drew sharp contrasts in all these areas with Brown typically holding the liberal position and Mandel typically holding the conservative position. But despite the feisty language and deep policy contrasts, when the debate ended, the candidates smiled, shook hands and patted each other on the back. They will meet again in Columbus on Thursday and Cincinnati on Oct. 25.
As Mitt Romney gets ready to attend a $2,500 a plate fundraiser at downtown's Great American Tower, the local Democratic Party chairman says the presidential hopeful's economic plan "would do nothing to create jobs now."
Hamilton County Democratic Party Chairman Tim Burke released a statement this afternoon describing why he believes a Romney presidency would be disastrous for middle-class Americans.
Meanwhile, a group of community leaders led a protest outside of the East Fourth Street office building as attendees arrived for the fundraiser. The protest was organized by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) District 1199, which represents more than 30,000 health-care and social service workers across Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia.
"Mitt Romney holding $2,500 per person fundraiser at the Great American Tower is a perfect example of exactly who he is and who he represents," said Becky Williams, SEIU's district president, in a prepared statement. "While Romney is hobnobbing on the rooftop with his wealthy donors hosted by American Financial Group, ordinary Ohioans are struggling to find work and provide for their families."
The co-host for the fundraiser is S. Craig Lindner, co-president and director of American Financial Group Inc., whose total compensation in 2010 totaled $8.3 million, according to Forbes magazine.
"Nothing Mitt Romney says can change the fact that he spent his career as a corporate buyout specialist who put profits over people and lined his pockets by outsourcing jobs, closing down plants and laying off workers," Burke said.
"His 59-point economic plan would do nothing to create jobs now, fix America's economy or help struggling homeowners avoid foreclosure. His tax plan would benefit the ultra-wealthy and do nothing to help middle-class families in Greater Cincinnati," Burke added.
In preparation for Romney's visit today, the Democratic National Committee pointed out that the investment firm once led by the candidate, Bain Capital, rejected a government offer to invest in General Motors (GM) during the 2008 financial crisis.
Romney has said on the campaign trail that he opposed the government bailout of U.S. automakers because the private market would have provided loans so GM and Chrysler Corp. could go through managed bankruptcy. But sources told The New York Times that Bain turned down an offer to help GM at the time.
"To go through the bankruptcy process, both companies needed billions of dollars in financing, money that auto executives and government officials who were involved with Mr. Obama's auto task force say was not available at a time when the credit markets had dried up," the article stated.
It added, "The only entity that could provide the $80 billion needed, they say, was the federal government. No private companies would come to the industry's aid, and the only path through bankruptcy would have been Chapter 7 liquidation, not the more orderly Chapter 11 reorganization, these people said."
Some progressive Democrats share a modest admiration for Ron Paul, a U.S. congressman from Texas and perennial darkhorse contender for the Republican presidential nomination.
The biggest deficit plug will come from privatizing parking services, which the city manager's office says will bring in $40 million in one-time revenue and additional revenue over 30 years as part of a long-term contract. About $21 million of the initial lump-sum payment will be used to close the 2013 budget deficit.
In the past, Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld voiced concerns about privatizing parking: "I'll await more details, but it seems penny-wise and pound-foolish to forgo a steady revenue stream for a lump-sum payment. Cincinnati needs a structurally balanced budget and can't keep relying on one-time sources. Places like Chicago and Indianapolis have seen their parking rates more than double following privatization — that's a bad deal for citizens, and something we don't need while we're experiencing an urban renaissance."
Another concern is whether the city's current parking employees will be laid off if parking services are sold. Dohoney said the deal for privatization will require the winning bidder to interview all American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) workers. Full-time workers who do not join the winning bidder will be hired in other parts of the city government. "No AFSCME employee will be placed on the street if they are full-time as a result of this effort," Dohoney claimed.
The rest of the deficit plug will come in cuts, cost shifting, savings, revenue, embedded growth and one-time sources. Among these, notable items include the elimination of the Mounted Patrol for the Cincinnati Police Department (CPD) and a $610,770 reduction in Human Services Funding. A few departments and programs, including the CPD, will face further minor cuts.
The city manager's office claims the changes in the budget are necessary mostly due to changes at the state level. Specifically, the state government cut the Local Government Fund by 50 percent and eliminated the tangible personal property tax reimbursement and estate tax; altogether, losing these sources of revenue cost Cincinnati $22.2 million in the 2013 budget.
Facing the large deficit, Dohoney said he wanted to avoid across-the-board cuts and other major cuts to growth and investment programs: "You're not competitive if that's your approach."
The budget also includes some spending increases. The Focus 52 Program will focus on redevelopment projects in Cincinnati's 52 neighborhoods. If it's successful, the new program will "grow the city's revenue base, create new jobs and/or increase the population of the city," according to the city manager's office.
In other budget news, the city manager will also send out the Tentative Tax Budget proposal, which sets the millage rate for the operating property tax. That proposal seeks to raise the millage rate from 5.9 mills to 6.1 mills, which will provide an estimated $31 million in revenue, up from $23.5 million. For a $100,000 residential property, that means a tax hike of $46.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Saturday laid out five steps that he said would have America "roaring back" during his first campaign stop since formally accepting the Republican nomination.
At Cincinnati's Union Terminal, Romney was joined on stage by his wife Anne, who spoke briefly, echoing her convention speech meant to humanize her husband.
He said his plan involved encouraging development in oil and coal, implementing a trade policy that favored American companies and not "cheaters" like China, making sure workers and students had skills to succeed in the coming century, reducing the deficit and encouraging small business growth.
"America is going to come roaring back," Romney told the crowd of thousands packed inside Union Terminal.
Not everyone was so impressed with the GOP nominee's promises.
About an hour after the Romney campaign event, Cincinnati Democratic leaders held a news conference to rebut the Republican's speech.
"Much of his (Romney's) speech was like his speech in Tampa, which is where Romney gave Cincinnatians nothing more than vague platitudes, false and misleading attacks without one single tangible idea on how to move forward," said Democratic/Charterite Cincinnati City Councilwoman Yvette Simpson.
Simpson, along with Democratic Councilman Cecil Thomas and Bishop Bobby Hilton, attacked the tax plan put forward by Romney and his running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan. They said it would cut taxes for the richest Americans while raising taxes on the middle class by about $2,000 per household, citing an analysis from the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center.
"Mitt Romney's plan would take Ohio and Cincinnati backwards, and we don't have time to go backwards," Hilton said.
Hilton credited Cincinnati's revitalization and urban development in part on federal money obtained from Obama's stimulus plan.
"We deserve better than this. We deserve better than Romney/Ryan," he said.
Romney would have disagreed with Hilton's assessment of Cincinnati's growth. During his speech he praised Ohio Gov. John Kasich, crediting him with bringing jobs and businesses to the state.
Romney also took time to attack President Barack Obama's record in office. The GOP nominee said in preparation for his convention speech he read many past convention speeches — including Obama's.
"He was not one of the ones that I wanted to draw from, except I could not resist a couple of things he said, because he made a lot of promises," Romney said. "And I noted that he didn't keep a lot of promises."
Romney also criticized what he called the bitterness and divisiveness of Obama's campaign, saying as president he would bring the country together. He mentioned the "patriotism and courage" of the late Neil Armstrong, who was honored in a private service in Cincinnati on Friday.
"I will do everything in my power to bring us together, because, united, America built the strongest economy in the history of the earth. United, we put Neil Armstrong on the moon. United, we faced down unspeakable darkness," Romney said.
"United, our men and women in uniform continue to defend freedom today. I love those people who serve our great nation. This is a time for us to come together as a nation."
The candidate's remarks ignited the crowd of thousands, many of whom wore shirts with slogans like "Mr. President, I did build my business," in response to a remark made by Obama about businesses being helped to grow by government contracts and infrastructure, and "Mitt 2012: At least he never ate dog meat," referring to a passage in Obama's 2008 memoir during which he recalls being fed dog meat as a boy in Indonesia.
Steve Heckman, a 62-year-old environmental consultant from Springfield, Ohio, said he voted for Obama in 2008 but will likely vote for Romney in this election.
He said he'd written "some pretty ugly stuff" about Romney in the past but felt jobs was the No. 1 issue and thought the Obama administration's policies were sending them out of the country.
"The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has, to me, become a little too almost like a fringe group, putting so much pressure on businesses that they are moving to Canada," Heckman said. "Things like air permits, the EPA is taking too long to issue them. It's not just power plants they're affecting, but all manufacturing."
Heckman said he didn't blame the president personally but thinks whoever he put in charge of the agency is being too strict.
"I grew up when the EPA was first put in place in the '70s, and they were, in my opinion, doing God's work," he said, citing the cleaning up of rivers such as the Cuyahoga near Cleveland, which famously caught fire because of pollution in 1969.
"I support the EPA, but it's driving businesses out of here."
Speaking ahead of Romney were U.S. House Speaker John Boehner, Sen. Rob Portman, U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot, Ohio treasurer and GOP senatorial candidate Josh Mandel and Republican U.S. House candidate for Ohio's 2nd District, Brad Wenstrup.
"This election is all about changing Washington," Mandel said. "The only way to change Washington is to change the people we send there."

NewsMARLBORO HOSTS DR. JOHN GRAYSON TO SPEAK IN HONOR OF MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR DAY
MARLBORO, VT – Martin Luther King, Jr. had a dream. That dream was based on love, according to Dr. John Grayson, who will speak about the activist's life and work at Marlboro College.
Grayson, a religion professor at Mount Holyoke College, will give a public talk entitled "Martin Luther King's Strategy of Sacrificial Love and Its Critics" on Jan. 19 at 7 p.m. in the Whittemore Theater at Marlboro College.
According to Grayson, Martin Luther King, Jr and the civil rights movement adopted a protest tactic of non-violent civil disobedience based on the Christian principle of love as well as Gandhi's principle of Satyagraha. This strategy had many critics. Grayson will examine King's 1965 protest in Selma, Alabama, when a potential flaw in King's strategy was exposed.
Grayson is a Ford Fellow and a Danforth Associate. As a Senior Fulbright Fellow to Germany and an American Cultural Specialist for the United States Information Service, Grayson has lectured throughout Western Europe and Africa. He has taught at Marlboro, Haverford, Smith, and Hampshire colleges.
His current scholarly project is an intellectual biography on the women who shaped the mind of Frederick Douglass.
This event is being sponsored by the Marlboro College Lecture Committee as part of the "Monday Nights at Marlboro" lecture series at Marlboro College. It is free of charge. For more information or for cancellation information due to inclement weather, contact Erin George, Public Relations Coordinator, at Marlboro College at (802) 251-7644.

Hi all,
I am having a strange problem while trying to deploy a Safariweb app on the iPad 2. My application contains a few tabs which load different pages; so far, nothing unusual. I would like to be able to let the users add a link to the app to the Home Screen and run it in chromeless mode. The problem is that the auth session (a cookie) is not persisted between page loads. But this only happens if I start the app from the icon that I saved on the Home Screen. Run directly in Safari the app works without problems.
I found a workaround which is to load the home page of the web app with a # at the end of the URL (domain_name/#). Saving the link after this makes the app work perfectly.
Did anyone see something similar? Any tips greatly appreciated.
