Via Eli Rabett I find a long article by James L. Meriner in Chicago magazine on the Lott-Levitt lawsuit. There's some new information on the history of Lott and Levitt such as this:
Just when and how the Lott-Levitt feud started is not clear — neither man would directly comment on the lawsuit for this article. Levitt's friend Austan Goolsbee, also an economics professor at the U. of C., remembers when Levitt, then a junior fellow at Harvard, visited Chicago in 1994 to present a paper. Lott had just been named a visiting professor. "Even before Steve was on the [academic] job market, John came to the first seminar Steve was giving at Chicago and brought his own slides to the talk and attempted to get up and rebut what Steve was saying during Steve's own workshop," Goolsbee says. "I cannot even tell you how unusual that is — I have never heard of anything like that happening."
Meriner quotes Dan Polsby, dean of George Mason Law School on Lott:
He is one of the most energetic, gifted econometricians of his generation, if not in history.
I beg to differ. Lott can drive a stats package, but he has no deep understanding of what he is doing. For instance, here's a question I put to him:
X is positively correlated with Y, r=0.7. X is positively correlated with Z, r=0.7. Does it follow that Y is positively correlated with Z?
Lott's answer:
Yes, of course.
I think that one of the most gifted econometricians in history would have got that one right.
And you don't have to take my word for it. What do econometricians think? Well, Lott has not been able to get a tenure-track position doing econometrics. In the entire world, there is not one university that has recognised Lott as being a one the most gifted econometricians ever. It seems that the only people impressed by Lott's skills in the field are those like Polsby, with has no training and has done no research in econometrics.
Meriner quotes Lott's excuse for using Mary Rosh:
He later wrote on his Web site, "I had originally used my own name in chat rooms but switched after receiving threatening and obnoxious telephone calls from other Internet posters."
This is not credible. First, he didn't come up with this excuse till several weeks after he was exposed. Second, Internet posters who disagree with you post their own comments or email you. All the responses to Lott's postings were polite. Third, he also posted under his own name while he was using Mary Rosh.
And I get a mention (the post he refers to is here):
In continuing online debates over gun issues, Reynolds and Kopel have refused to identify the anonymous source. However, Tim Lambert, a computer scientist in Australia who maintains an anti-Lott blog, has said on his blog that Levitt told him he was nearly certain that Lott was the source.

The euro fell to near the ¥97 line Monday morning in Tokyo after Standard & Poor's downgraded the credit ratings of nine eurozone countries last week in connection with the regional debt crisis.
The unified currency fell to around ¥97.04 in the morning, setting a new 11-year low amid fears the U.S. rating agency's downgrades Friday will exacerbate financial difficulties in the region, dealers said.
Finance Minister Jun Azumi said Monday the "rapid" fall of the euro's value is creating concern because its slide against the yen is putting further pressure on exporters' earnings.
"The move is a bit rapid and we are concerned," Azumi told reporters.
Azumi declined comment on Friday's downgrading by S&P of the credit ratings of nine of the 17 eurozone governments, including France, which lost its top AAA rating.
But he did say investor confidence in European sovereign debt has been eroded and the negative fallout has spread among European and other banks exposed to the debt.
Yuzo Sakai, manager of foreign-exchange promotion at Tokyo Forex & Ueda Harlow, said the unclear prospects of the Greek debt reduction talks being held between the government and creditors are also weighing on the euro.
"Negative news keeps coming out of Europe. If other rating agencies such as Moody's follow S&P's downgrades, the euro will face further selling."
The dollar meanwhile held steady in the upper ¥76 range.
Traders said they were closely watching a short-term debt auction in France scheduled for later in the day.
Azumi, who met with U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner last week, said Tokyo and Washington had confirmed the need for eurozone governments to try harder to establish a firewall to prevent the sovereign debt crisis from unsettling global financial markets and dragging down world economic growth.
Without such efforts, the crisis could become a serious "risk factor" for the global economy in 2012, Azumi said, stressing he wants European leaders to "make a response while sufficiently recognizing that."
The Nikkei stock index lost 1.5 percent from Friday to end the morning at 8,371.40.

TRIMMING THE "FAT TALK" 31 Jul 2013
"Look at this pooch! No matter how much I suck in, there is still that little roll right there!"
"You're curvy, so you can get away with it, you can't even tell I swear! See, these love-handles are way more noticeable on me because I have no boobs or butt."
"What love handles?! SHUT UP, if you think those are love handles … I don't even want to know what you think of these (Squeeze, squeeze)..."
Fat talk¸ or talking negatively about the shape or size of your body, is a common type of banter that women (especially) are often exposed to. As this study from Northwestern University shows, most women engage in Fat Talk. The most common response observed in these types of social exchanges are: 1) denying that one's friend is fat and 2) stating that in fact they are the one that is fat... Sound familiar?
Even though the focus is on physical, observed flaws of the body, the damage happens internally. Talking about yourself this way it introduces a negative thinking pattern that quickly impacts other domains of life. This University of Arizona study found that fat talk predicts lower levels of body satisfaction, higher levels of depressive symptoms, and greater perceived pressure to be thin. Talking smack about your beautiful body is harmful not only to yourself, but can also negatively affect how others feel about themselves. Recent research has found that hearing others engage in fat talk not only makes us feel guilty about our own bods, but also makes us more likely to engage in fat talk, ourselves.
Still feel like whining about your cellulite? Fine, but people will like you less. A recent study conducted at the University of Notre Dame's Body Image and Eating Disorders Lab found that women who engage in fat talk are far less-likeable compared to those who make positive statements about their body.
I realize it is unrealistic to trash Fat Talk completely… we are all here, working out together, because we care about our bodies. Some of us are here with specific goals in mind. For example, if you are packing your Lithe schedule with Peeled and Wings to tone your upper-half, it is not unreasonable to want to pay closer attention to your arms for the month! Totally normal, as long as you are able to keep things in perspective: having crazy-ripped arms is cool, but it won't make you a better mother, nor will it make dinner with the in-laws less-awkward…
As women, we often equate the way our body looks with certain desirable attributes and ideas (e.g., success, achievement, happiness etc.) but in so doing, we are taking power away from ourselves as autonomous, strong women. We are minimizing the importance of our mental capacities and capabilities to achieve these ideals, which in reality, have no correlation with how toned our arms are.
So…what kind of locker room buddy do you want to be?! It's up to you what you say and to whom, but think twice about this kind of blasphemous babble now that you know the consequences it could have on you and those around you.
Stay tuned for my tips on ways to keep your internal and external dialogues "fat"-free!

When building and deploying mobile apps, retail and distribution firms have employed a variety of approaches, including custom app builds, cloud-based DIY app builder tools, and in some cases, building their own enterprise app stores.
In August, women's specialty apparel retailer Coldwater Creek, which operates 402 stores in 47 states, announced it had landed Deborah Cavanagh as its new chief marketing officer. She is charged with leading the multichannel brand's marketing and creative services. One of Cavanagh's first orders of business? To re-engage the Coldwater Creek core customer, as well as connect with new ones.

Cardiff – South Africa captain AB de Villiers won the toss and elected to field in the first of five one-day internationals against England at Cardiff on Friday.
The Proteas made sweeping changes to the side that recently beat England 2-0 in a three-Test series to replace their hosts at the top of the world Test rankings.
Strike fast bowler Dale Steyn was left out while several one-day specialists, including Dean Elgar, Robin Peterson, Wayne Parnell, Ryan McLaren and Lonwabo Tsotsobe were all included.
England, who have won their last 10 completed one-day internationals and are ahead of South Africa at the top of the 50-over world rankings, recalled seamer Chris Woakes for the rested Stuart Broad.
Paceman Jade Dernbach and spinner Samit Patel missed out.
Overcast conditions promised to assist seamers, which may have explained de Villiers's decision to field first.
But rain delayed the scheduled 10.15 am (11.15 SA time) start.
England: Alastair Cook (capt), Ian Bell, Jonathan Trott, Ravi Bopara, Eoin Morgan, Craig Kieswetter (wkt), Tim Bresnan, Chris Woakes, Graeme Swann, Steven Finn, James Anderson
South Africa: AB de Villiers (capt/wkt), Hashim Amla, Graeme Smith, Dean Elgar, JP Duminy, Francois du Plessis, Ryan McLaren, Wayne Parnell, Robin Peterson, Morne Morkel, Lonwabo Tsotsobe

If you have swollen gums, you probably have a gum infection. This is by far the most common cause of gum swellings. But it's important to realize that you don't "catch" a gum infection.
You can't get it from drinking out of someone else's cup, or by kissing. Diseases that are transmitted in that way do not normally result in a gum swelling, or else are very rare.
If you have swollen gums, there will be one of THREE possible appearances. You will need to look very carefully. Open your mouth halfway, let your cheek relax, close your mouth a tiny bit, and pull your cheek to the side slightly with one finger. You will probably see one of 3 things.
Here's a list:
Next, you should see if your gums bleed when you gently brush your teeth.
Finally, ask yourself - do you use dental floss at all? Like more than twice a week?
The answers to these questions will let you make an educated guess as to the cause of your swollen gums, and what you can do about it.
Like I said at the top of this page, pretty much ALL cases of swollen gums will be caused by a gum infection. BUT how you fix the problem depends on the CAUSE of the infection. That means - "where's the infection coming from?"
The one I see almost every day is a simple gum infection due to dental plaque bacteria building up on your teeth and in between your teeth. If your gums bleed when you use a toothbrush, and you don't ever floss your teeth, this is probably what's happened.
The cure for this is to get the plaque bacteria off your teeth ! It's that simple. Just get rid of the plaque bacteria and things will settle down. But that's easier said then done. What can you do?.
If your gums are very painful to brush, you will have to tackle this in two steps:
First, you need a top-quality mouthwash. You can rinse this around your mouth AND dip your toothbrush head in the mouthwash too! A great product is the TheraBreath Perio Therapy Oral Rinse. I really, really like TheraBreath products! Have a look at the TheraBreath PerioTherapy HEALTHY GUMS Oral Rinse That's the one you need. Check out the link to get the BEST price! TheraBreath products are normally aimed at curing bad breath, BUT the oxygen levels in the PerioTherapy mouthwash is great for general gum infections!
Normally, I don't like mouthwashes because most of them don't do much, and they make people think they can brush less and floss less because they are using some fancy-pants mouthwash.
BUT this is a special case. This only works with TheraBreath PerioTherapy Oral Rinse, AND you are only going to use it for 14 days. That's right, only FOURTEEN days! Why so short?
Because 14 days is more than enough time for the mouthwash to do it's job.
The TheraBreath mouthwash will kill the bacteria
the gum infection, and allow your swollen gums to heal up and shrink
back to their normal size. But that's when the real work starts, if you
want to prevent getting swollen gums again!
My first tip is to get a good quality brush. The one I recommend for people living in the U.S.A. is a sonic care toothbrush called the Cybersonic. Don't worry, it's not expensive - about $60 if you get it direct from the Amazon website. It's amazing value for money.
If you live outside the U.S.A., then
I recommend either the Oral
B Sonic toothbrush, (also called the Pulsonic),
OR, if
money's no object, the top-of-the-line brush from Sonicare, the DiamondClean.
You can read a review of these
three brushes at my Best
electric toothbrush review page.
If you use the TheraBreath mouthwash and change your brush (and how you use it), your swollen gums should shrink back down to their normal size and stay that way.
But I recommend getting a dentist to check your gums - you may also have a build-up of hard tartar on your teeth that a dental hygienist can gently remove for you. She can also check your toothbrushing, and show you where you might still be missing with the brush!
Now the other two causes of swollen gums;
The next type of gum swelling is where you get a small, well-defined lump at the gum edge where it meets the tooth, or very close to it. This is usually caused by a gum infection under the gum, and it's a type of abscess.
For this, you should go along to a dentists' office. He will take an X-ray to confirm what's happening, and probably give you some tooth abscess antibiotics to settle the gum infection down. Then you will need to see the dental hygienist to get your gum checked and measured. If the tooth next to the swollen gum is very loose, you may need to have it removed.
It's also possible that your swollen gums are caused by a gum infection coming from a dead tooth. If this is the case, you will either need a root canal procedure or get the tooth pulled.
The final cause of swollen gums is where the swelling is at the very back of your mouth, behind the last tooth. It can be difficult to close your teeth together. This is probably down to wisdom teeth infection, a particular type of gum infection that occurs around a wisdom tooth.
Again, there's not much you can do at home about this, you really need to see a dentist. This situation also usually requires antibiotics at first, followed by a careful assessment of whether the gum infection is likely to come back again or not. If the tooth is tilted (or "impacted"), you may need to have it removed.
These are the most common causes of swollen gums that I see in my office. All these are due to a gum infection of one sort or another, but the source of the infection is different in each case, and so needs different treatment.

Hello from @LaserPulseWaves,
does anybody have small samples of full waveform LiDAR data captured with an Optech scanner that could be used for experimental purposes for verifying the design of the PulseWaves format? The PulseWaves data exchange standard is an open and vendor-neutral format for storing geo-referenced full waveform LiDAR. The format is similar to the LAS standard but instead of storing discrete returns, it stores geo-referenced laser pulses and their waveforms.

Saiga 12
I've been wanting a saiga 12 for a long time now, however whenever i watch reviews or read them it always sounds like you have to buy a rebuild kit for it so that yu can make it shoot low brass and up to slugs. i see where they change the plug and gas regulator thing, i just want a clear answer on how much i will have to spend to make a saiga 12 fuction on all runds i feel like putting threw it.
Well boss, a bit over $900.
I know this because i read a article in a Cop and Law Enforcment magazine, about the Saiga and how it could be good for LEO's
My S12 is box stock and works like a champ with whatever I run through it.
Op I have never heard of that problem with the saiga 12, I only have limited experience and limited information on them, but I never saw that problem.
Buy it and don't look back. I bought two quite a while ago and people keep trying to buy them from me. Both are converted and have a steady diet of buckshot. Sorry cant answer anything about birdshot, but I haven't heard too many problem with them. Most of the time its the gas ports either plugged or not machined all the way. But hey S12's shouldn't be fed that whimpy stuff....lol
My saiga 12 had a few hiccups with the low brass Walmart loads. Who am I kidding it wasn't even brass more like recycled tin. if you run buck or slug or some shells other than the cheap Wally value packs i bet you won't have a problem. The reason the "fix" came out is because everyone wants to do mag dumps with cheap ammo. Most of the problem with my Saiga was with Winchester green box #8 shot. I switches to black Winchester AA and i had absolutely no problem with it. i think it's pretty funny but i couldn't get mine sold to save my life back when i wanted to get rid of it. here is a pic of it. maybe i should put the plastic stock on it might sell quicker since everyone seems to be into the tactical look these days.

recently did some trading and ended up with a really nice Saiga 12. It has not had the trigger conversion, but has enough US parts on it to make it 922stupidity compliant. It shoots most everything with no problems. I bought a new "Vplug" for it and haven't had a chance to try it out yet.
Ok heres the low down on it. Saigas run well on high brass stuff slugs and buck. But fail in light game loads. I started box stock and all the way to full modified. The gas adjust plugs are for a variety of loads. I shoot 3 gun and my saiga will stove pipe birdshot with the stock bolt spring. In competition i use low recoil slugs and birdshot heavy game load. Usually 7.5 2.3/4 heavy. And the gas plug set on 3 . With the light spring in the gun do.........not.........shoot..............buck or full slugs through the gun it will break the perch for the bolt spring and the bolt. The gas block is set at +/- setting. With the original spring in it. Russians do not have quality control standards for these guns and 90 % need some form of coaxing to run properly. Greg with carolina shooters is about the best tool in the shed for parts and advise on m. As for your gunsmith mods to the saiga 12. Tromiz...........high dollar. Stick with the service center for saiga. In ohio. They can SBS YOUR SAIGA FOR around 400 or less. Do not over pay for this. Shop around. I have seen in excess of 1800 for SBS MODS. Dont do it. Its not rocket science and the american saiga service center knows m best. You will love your saiga if you play it right. It will need tweeked trust me right out of the box. Guys that say saigas eat anything dont shoot them enough. Try 300 rounds right out of the box first trip and youll see. Not 1 or 2 boxes of what ever. I use mine primarily for home defense and 500 rounds of zero failures puts my mind at ease protecting life and home with a saiga. They are heavy guns but when plowing through round after round of 00 buck. Your body will like the extra weight behind the gun. Trust me.
Heres a fun excercise....................for dark target allocation. I shoot skeet in the dark. My saiga has a weapon mounted light. Full custom setup. Its great practice.
Problems with my Saiga-12
I have had a ton of extracting and ejecting issues with my Saiga. I installed the 4 position gas block and I'm still having the problems. Some of the spent shells are getting "pinched" in the chamber like its half ejecting it and half loading it. If anyone has any advice I welcome ALL suggestions.
Thank you in advance to all who reply.

Santa Cruz >> A 33-year-old Freedom man convicted of murder in a 1997 carjacking will get a chance at new prison sentence.
Francisco Marquez, 33, was convicted of first-degree murder, carjacking and kidnapping with Jesus Arroyo Madrigal in the killing of 18-year-old Ulysses Huante.
On Nov. 25, 1997, the duo carjacked Huante at gunpoint in Watsonville and forced him to drive outside the city before Marquez shot him three times. The duo was arrested a week later in Merced County after a deputy spotted them sleeping in Huante's car.
Madrigal, 18 at the time, was sentenced to 35 years to life in prison. Marquez, 17 at the time, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
But a 2012 bill signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown allowed for sentence reviews of juveniles sentenced to life without parole once they served 15 years in prison.
In March, Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Paul Burdick ruled there were grounds for Marquez to have a resentencing hearing. On Friday, Burdick set a date of May 6 to decide the hearing date.
Burdick also said he would request retired Santa Cruz County Superior Court Judge Michael Barton, who presided over the case in 1998, determine Marquez's future.
Marquez is the first in the county to petition to be resentenced under the law, according to prosecutor Celia Rowland.
If resentenced, he faces a minimum 28 years to life in prison, given the charges of his conviction, according to Rowland. But a judge could also determine Marquez could still be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.

Square Enix Senior Director of Public Relations Riley Brennan has confirmed rumours that staff cuts have been made at the publisher's Los Angeles office.
Despite rumours that a number of online titles would be affected by the lay-offs, the publisher has stated that the number of staff was reduced in the name of restructuring and that the current development of its MMO titles would not be affected by the staff cuts.
Speaking to Massively, Brennan stated, "In order to ensure it is operating effectively, the Square Enix Los Angeles office has reduced its workforce. This was a difficult decision and we wish the best for those affected by these changes. The decision will not have any impact on the operations of MMO titles. Customers can expect those services to continue, including the upcoming launch of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn."

ELYRIA -- A Lorain man claims he was stabbed multiple times while he was pumping gas, according to police.
On Wednesday at 3:53 a.m., police spoke with Miles Davis, 30, at Mercy Allen Hospital in Oberlin. Davis said he was pumping gas at Speedway, 710 Griswold Road, when an unknown man driving a white car pulled up on the opposite side of the pump, got out of the car, and started stabbing him, the police report stated.
Davis sustained puncture wounds to the right side of his chest, right arm pit, left rear shoulder blade, left side of his chest, left bicep, left forearm and left knee, a police report stated. All of the wounds were 1 inch in length.
Davis told police a female passenger in the suspect's vehicle got out of the car and started yelling at him. After Davis told the woman to calm down, the suspect approached Davis with a knife between his fingers and started fighting him, the report stated.
Davis did not realize he was stabbed until the fight was over. A woman was riding in Davis' front seat, but said she was on the phone and did not witness anything. She later drove Davis to Mercy Allen Hospital.
The officer went to the Speedway after interviewing Davis and spoke to the clerk who said he saw two men fighting at the gas pumps, the report stated.
The clerk told police both men left the scene after the fight was over. Police looked at surveillance tapes, but could only see the two men leaving the gas station.
The stabbing is still under investigation. Police are still looking for suspects.

In the month that marks 50 years since John F. Kennedy's election and 47 since his assassination, three books look at his times, shining and dark.
Dear Mrs. Kennedy: The World Shares Its Grief, Letters November 1963 (St. Martin's), edited by Jay Mulvaney and Paul DeAngelis, samples and gives context to some of the more than 800,000 letters the president's widow received from around the globe.
The Kennedy Detail: JFK's Secret Service Agents Break Their Silence (Gallery) by Gerald Blaine is a detailed account by one of the men who was at the assassination. It includes the first published contribution ever by Agent Clint Hill, who jumped onto the president's car to protect Mrs. Kennedy.
Portrait of Camelot: A Thousand Days in the Kennedy White House (Abrams) by Richard Reeves, with photos by Cecil W. Stoughton, captures an era in the work of the official White House photographer and a renowned presidential historian; includes a DVD.

BlackBerry: only 20% of marketplace apps are Android-based

BlackBerry took the wraps off their new BB10 platform back in January, and they recently announced that over 30,000 apps had been added to the marketplace since its launch. This brought the grand total of apps to 100,000, but many have wondered about inflation as a result of the BlackBerry's Android emulation engine.
In speaking with AllThingsD, BlackBerry VP Martyn Mallick, clarified just how many BB10 apps are Android-based, claiming that they make up around 20% of the marketplace. This 1-in-5 number is greater than the company would like, but Mallick did mention that those same developers have been sticking around, creating native BlackBerry apps that allow them to take better advantage of the device's selling power.
Overall, BlackBerry has undertaken many strategies in order to entice developers, including guaranteeing $10,000 in sales for certain qualified apps. In addition, BlackBerry has promised to use only 2 screen sizes in their upcoming product lines, hoping to prevent fragmentation and make life easier for developers. Unfortunately, even with all those incentives, applications such as Netflix and Instagram are still missing from the marketplace, and BlackBerry is far away from catching up to Android or iOS.

Whenever you add the zest of a citrus, it always intensifies the recipe to another foodie dimension. The oils in the peel give the sweet fragrant flavor. I love the idea of adding citrus to the sugar cookie and maybe orange, lemon and grapefruit would be an interesting twist, too. These are great cookies whenever you want a little taste of tropical summer. All I am missing is a 'rum cocktail' with a little umbrella for my perfect taste of a tropical summer. Hmmmm.....
Seen from Two Peas and Their Pod and she adapted it from Rock Recipes
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 large egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of one large lime
3 tablespoon lime juice
½ cup toasted coconut
½ cup sugar for rolling cookies
1 tablespoon colored sanding sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with silpats or parchment paper.
In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Using a KA mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until smooth and fluffy. Scrape down any creamed butter mixture if not mixed.
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, lime juice and lime zest.
Gradually add in the dry ingredients and toasted coconut.
In a small bowl, add the ½ cup sugar with the colored sanding sugar. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of sugar cookie dough into balls using a small ice cream scooper and roll the dough in the sugar bowl until completely coated. Place on cookie sheets about 1 ½ inches apart.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Let stand on cookie sheet for 2 minutes before removing to cooling rack. Enjoy!
Yield: 4 dozen cookies
Review: Yum, I absolutely love the simplicity of sugar cookies but with the addition of coconut and lime - it definitely kicks it up a notch. The sugar cookie dough is soft and velvety to touch, so when you are not scooping out teaspoonfuls of cookie dough - keep your dough in the fridge. Overall, the cookies were light, refreshing and delicious!

anyone pick their gift? was it really that simple? flag vs 2 car flags
Was this option via email of snail mail? I got nothing
Nothing here
Took the flag , it's a no brainer.
Ok is this is a special thing or should we all have seen this? I paid in full on the day the invoice arrived.
Check your spam folder maybe?
Hope this helps.
Looks like I will be installing a flag pole at my new house.
Checked all of it. Nada.
me either
Contact your ticket rep about it.There's a dead line for chosing your gift,if you don't let them know which one you want they will send you the two auto flags.
Here is the link. You'll have to know your account number
I selected the $100 cash return option. I already have two Texan flags and several car flags.
I also already have enough flags, so I went with the Cheerleaders (twins!) It is always good to have extra of those around the house.

Boateng hopeful over Bayern move
Manchester City defender Jerome Boateng remains hopeful of securing a move to Bayern Munich.
• Tranmere confirm Bayern bid
• Boateng keen on Bayern
• Boateng agrees Bayern move
Boateng, 22, signed for City from Hamburg last summer but, after a debut campaign ruined by injuries, he was unable to establish himself as a first-team regular.
City have expressed their desire to retain the player and are demanding €20 million, but Boateng - who has already agreed a four-year deal with Bayern - remains hopeful that an agreement can be reached.
"I believe [a deal can be done]," he told Bild. "I have to show patience. There is nothing more to say. I am going to concentrate on training and hope that an agreement can be reached quickly."
Boateng is currently undergoing rehabilitation after knee surgery in America and added: "The rehab is going really well. I'm not in any pain. I'm working on my fitness, strength and pace."
Boateng is under contract at Eastlands until 2015.

Dr. Sundahl, who began her practice in 1978, said she is the first woman to set up her own dental practice in Menlo Park.
She said she has two other firsts. She was the first woman president of the Mid-Western Dental Society, a nonprofit organization providing dental care to those unable to afford it. Further, she was the first woman president of any dental society in California.
Dr. Sundahl's patients will now be cared for by Dr. Jan Gabus, who shares the same medical building at 1300 University Ave. in Menlo Park. Dr. Gabus is a longtime friend and associate.
In retirement, Dr. Sundahl and her husband, Roger, Portola Valley residents, plan to spend more time with their grandchildren and their North Dakota family. She said she is looking forward to time for gardening and staying in touch with many of her former patients.

Examining the contributions that the Abbey of la Trinite, Vendome, made to its local community, Penelope Johnson ( Prayer, Patronage, and Power: The Abbey of la Trinite, Vendome, 1032-1187 ,158-9) notes the abbey "was actively involved in providing sustenance to the hungry" and adds that "much of this monastic charity was woven into the liturgy."
She specifically speaks of the mandatum of the poor on Maundy Thursday: "After the morning chapter meeting, the poor were selected for the service. One person was picked for each monk as well as one for each monk who had died during the year, and two for the abbot. This group of poor people attended mass after the monks but received only the unconsecrated host. After mass, a substantial meal of bread, wine, and vegetables was given to the poor. Later in the day after none, a procession formed, and with a great pealing of bells and singing of psalms entered the church through the galilee. The entire congregation communicated at the festival mass that followed. At the end of the service, the deacon and celebrant for the week escorted the poor into the cloister where they were all seated. Each monk took his place before a seated poor person. The monks sang an antiphon after the sounding of three gongs. Then each monk genuflected and proceeded to wash the feet of the person before him. The washing was followed by kissing the feet of the poor person and then offering him wine. Finally, each monk knelt before his partner in liturgy, offered him two pennies, and kissed his hands."
All Saints' was another day of liturgical charity when "monks fed one hundred hungry people." On the first Sunday of lent, "the monks went without an extra portion of food and donated it to the almoner for the poor."

After much review and a lot of changes, Nokia has settled on Next Fifteen (The Holmes Report says Bite Communications and Text 100 are among the firms that will be working on the business) for PR work across the U.S., U.K., and Finland where the company is headquartered.
The decision was made after a six-month search that had narrowed the contenders down to three companies in addition to Next Fifteen: Emanate, Fleishman-Hillard, and Cohn & Wolfe. F-H and Cohn & Wolfe (which works with LG Mobile) ran into conflicts.
Ketchum previously handled Nokia's PR in the U.S. GolinHarris was the previous AOR with Good Relations handling the business in the U.K. [via Holmes Report]

April 13, 2009
Arne Duncan, the secretary of education, has urged the nation's mayors to take control of their public schools so that they can impose radical reforms. He points to New York City as a prime example of a school system that made sharp improvements under mayoral control.
No mayor has exercised such unlimited power over the public schools as New York City's Michael Bloomberg. His allies say that the results of the current system are so spectacular that the law should be renewed without change. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan agrees: "I'm looking at the data here in front of me," he said while in New York. "Graduation rates are up. Test scores are up ... By every measure, that's real progress."
It sounds good, but in fact no independent source has verified such claims, says Diane Ravitch, a research professor of education at New York University:
- On the National Assessment of Educational Progress -- widely acknowledged as the gold standard of the testing industry -- New York City showed almost no academic improvement between 2003, when the mayor's reforms were introduced, and 2007.
- There were no significant gains for New York City's students -- black, Hispanic, white, Asian or lower-income -- in fourth-grade reading, eighth-grade reading or eighth-grade mathematics.
- In fourth-grade math, pupils showed significant gains (although the validity of this is suspect because an unusually large proportion -- 25 percent -- of students were given extra time and help).
- The federal test reported no narrowing of the achievement gap between white students and minority students.
The graduation rate is another area in which progress has been overstated, says Ravitch:
- The city says the rate climbed to 62 percent from 53 percent between 2003 and 2007; the state's Department of Education, which uses a different formula, says the city's rose to 52 percent, from 44 percent.
- Either way, the city's graduation rate is no better than that of Mississippi, which spends about a third of what New York City spends per pupil.
Not every school problem can be solved by changes in governance. But to establish accountability, transparency and the legitimacy that comes with public participation, the Legislature should act promptly to restore public oversight of public education, says Ravitch.

Back to China, via Pyongyang?
Related topics
"Don't be evil" may be Google's motto. But Google is also the company most often decried as bent on world domination. So what was its executive chairman, Eric Schmidt, doing last week in North Korea, a country with just 24.5 million people who are not connecting to the internet any time soon?
It was billed as a private visit, but the US State Department has called it "unhelpful". I am sure Schmidt is a nice person. He is also famous for his interest in countries that have only restricted internet access. But did curiosity and compassion alone drive such a high-profile visit against Washington's wishes?
News reports and editorials dutifully repeat his warning that North Korea must open up and learn to harness the internet or it will be left far behind. Schmidt is a smart guy. Did he seriously think Our Young Leader Kim Jong-un was all ears just because Google said so? But perhaps Schmidt had bigger fish to fry than the hermit state. Let's consider some of the things he said which may give a better idea about what he is at.
"Once the internet starts, citizens in a country can certainly build on top of it, but the government has to do something," Schmidt told reporters. "They have to make it possible for people to use the internet, which the government in North Korea has not yet done. It's their choice now, and in my view it's time now for them to start or they will remain behind."
Perhaps he was actually talking about China, North Korea's sugar daddy, but also sending a signal that Google was willing to engage even authoritarian regimes that practise heavy censorship.
China already has more than 500 million internet users, compared with 220 million in the US. That's a different equation than 24 million. And despite the widely reported spat between Beijing and Google in 2010, the firm never really left the mainland. It still has hundreds of engineers and staff there, and is looking to expand services. According to some reports, Schmidt, then the CEO, was willing to put up with Chinese state censorship in 2010. It was co-founder Sergey Brin who forced his hand.
Google can't ignore the China market. Soon or later, it will make peace with Beijing. Last week's visit may be the first step.

What: Nana, What's Cancer? by Beverlye Hyman Fead and Tessa Mae Hamermesh (American Cancer Association)
Why we love it: It's difficult to talk to children about a topic as serious as cancer. If you're at a loss for words, try checking out cancer survivor and author Beverlye Hyman Fead and Tessa Mae Hamermesh's latest book, Nana, What's Cancer? In this thorough yet simple read, a woman battling cancer describes to her concerned granddaughter what the disease actually is, what causes it, how it can be treated and even how to deal when a loved one has it. The book has tons more info, covering a different topic in each of the 12 chapters. The best part is that the book is honest; it doesn't try to sugarcoat the details about cancer. Give it to an older kid to read on her own, or maybe you can curl up with your child and read it together before bedtime. Nana, What's Cancer? comes out next month, so be sure to keep an eye out for it!Where to find it: Bookstores and on Amazon.com, $14.95

The Broncos signed Champ Bailey to a four-year deal, keeping the perennial Pro Bowl cornerback off the market.
John Elway, the Broncos' chief of football operations, announced the move in a series of tweets yesterday.
"Champ is truly one of the NFL's elite players, a 10-time Pro Bowler who is playing at the absolute highest level,'' Elway wrote. "The commitment and loyalty that Champ has shown to the Broncos, the city of Denver and this region is exemplary. We're fortunate to have Champ with the Broncos for a long time. This is a GREAT day for our entire organization and our fans.''
Bailey, who turns 33 in June, just played in his 10th Pro Bowl, a record for cornerbacks.
His new deal is believed to be worth between $40 million and $44 million, less than the going rate of about $15 million per year for elite cornerbacks.
Talks continue Federally mediated negotiations between the NFL and the players' union have stretched past 35 hours over five days — and they aren't done.
Yesterday's session ended after eight hours. The union, meanwhile, called off a planned meeting with player agents that was supposed to happen tomorrow in Indianapolis; labor talks are expected to continue that day in Washington.
After months of infrequent and sometimes contentious bargaining, the league and union have been communicating face-to-face since Friday. They agreed to try mediation in a bid to find common ground before the current labor deal expires at the end of the day March 3. The union has said it believes team owners want to lock out the players as soon as the next day, which could threaten the 2011 season.
Saints cut Shockey The Saints released tight end Jeremy Shockey. In his three seasons in New Orleans, the former Giant caught 139 passes for 1,460 yards with 6 touchdowns in 38 regular-season games . . . Five-time Pro Bowl cornerback Ronde Barber will return for a 15th season with the Buccaneers. The team said Barber signed a one-year contract. Barber, 35, is the club's career interceptions leader with 40 and has made 183 consecutive starts, the second-longest streak among active players behind Peyton Manning . . . The Panthers placed the non-exclusive franchise tag on two-time Pro Bowl center Ryan Kalil, who will be offered a one-year, guaranteed deal worth more than $10 million. If the current franchise tag rules remain under the new labor deal, another team could sign Kalil only by giving Carolina two first-round draft picks . . . The Browns placed their franchise tag on the longtime dependable kicker Phil Dawson, the only player remaining from Cleveland's 1999 expansion squad. Dawson, who was expected to become a free agent, will make $3.25 million next season, and it's possible he could still sign a long-term contract with the Browns . . .

Jimmy Wolfer's 24-yard field goal in overtime handed the Bishop Ford Falcons its second straight loss this season against Manhattan's Xavier Knights, who pulled out a 17–14 win in a Catholic High School Football League Class AA-A game at Aviator Sports Complex on Saturday night.
The fated kick ended an emotionally taxing finish for Ford. The Falcons tied the score at 14–14 with three minutes remaining in regulation on an electrifying 71-yard touchdown run by junior running back Dante Aiken and the chance to sneak away with a win in overtime. The Falcons (3–2, 3–2) won that toss, took the ball, but failed to score on the opening drive of the alternating-possession extra period. It left the door open for a game-winning field goal opportunity for Xavier (4–2, 3–2).
"Sometimes football breaks your heart," Bishop Ford coach Jim Esposito said. "We played as good as we could have played, but we didn't make the play at the end."
As the ball passed through the uprights, securing the win for the Knights, a wave of disappointment washed over the faces on the Bishop Ford sideline. The team's walk to the locker room was slow and reserved. Saturday's game makred the Falcon's second straight defeat since starting the season 3–0 and face first-place St. Francis Prep next week. The Bishop Ford boys had high hopes they would be heading into that contest of an emotional win.
"We felt like we had it, but we just should have worked harder," Aiken said. "That's why they won."
Aiken was the centerpiece of the Falcon offense, as he has been for much of the season. He carried the ball 17 times for 134 yards and a touchdown. His performance took some pressure off of starting quarterback Xaviah Mattocks.
He struggled against a strong Xavier defense, completing 3-of-18 passes for 40 yards, though he did throw an important six-yard touchdown to Rodney Gonzales that tied the score at 8–8 with six second left before the half.
But the Bishop Ford defense was unable to contain talented Xavier running back and Brooklyn native Trey Solomon, despite running a virulent monkey on his back — bronchitis. The junior finished with 126 yards and two touchdowns on 29 carries.
"For him to come out and play shows how much heart he has," Xavier senior running back Ryan Kilgallen said. "He's just a big-time player and he's our leader."
The loss will force Bishop Ford, the defending 'A' champions to dig deep for the two weeks leading up to the playoffs. The Windsor Terrace team is now on the outside looking in at the Class AA playoffs with Xavier and Cardinal Hayes holding the head-to-head tiebreaker.
Regardless of the loss, the Bishop Ford coach saw his team hold the line and was proud.
"Three or four years ago, we couldn't be on the field competing with Xavier and tonight we had them on the ropes," Esposito said. "I think we're a good football team."

Frank Romano isn't asking for much. Or at least it doesn't seem like much.
Ordinarily, pleading for good health and favorable luck isn't the equivalent of asking for eternal life, world peace, the moon and stars above. But it pretty much has been this season for Romano, whose pleas have continually fallen on deaf ears during the Kent State wrestling team's trying 1997-98 campaign.
Injuries, ailments, departures ... you name it, and Romano has probably lost a key wrestler to it this season. But the Golden Flashes' mentor remains hopeful that maybe, just maybe, his pleas will be answered fittingly when the stakes are highest.
At this weekend's Mid-American Conference Championships.
"It's been a very unusual year. A lot of unusual things have happened, to say the least," said Romano, whose Flashes (12-9, 2-3 MAC) will host the MAC Championships Saturday and Sunday at the Memorial Athletic and Convocation Center. "I guess we're due for something good to happen, and this would be a great time for it. This is always a raucous tournament where a lot of strange things happen ... both good and bad."
Strange things have been happening to the Flashes all season. And they've predominantly all been bad.
Three wrestlers who placed at last year's MAC Championships (Steve Daugherty, Joe Boardwine and Jason Lara) are at the top of an incredibly long list of key performers who will be missing this weekend for various reasons, leaving Romano with a lineup that includes three freshmen and six wrestlers who will be making their initial appearance at the MAC's big show.
"I don't want to dwell on the guys we have out," said Romano. "The guys we have are all anxious and ready to go. This is the youngest team we've had in quite a while, which bodes well for our future. But for now we're inexperienced, so we'll have to see what happens."
Kent State has a solid and reliable one-two punch in junior Brian Singleton and senior Keith Shamblin.
Singleton (142 pounds) is rounding into form after missing all of last season (Army Reserves). The former Crestwood High School star is 12-3 overall and ranked 17th in the nation, and is seemingly on a crash course to meet Central Michigan's Casey Cunningham in the finals. Cunningham, ranked second in the nation, edged Singleton by one point on Feb. 22.
Shamblin, a former Southeast High School standout, was the preseason favorite to win the MAC's 150-pound crown. He has compiled a 23-6 record after finishing second at that same weight last year.
"They've both had real good years and we expect them to perform well this weekend," said Romano.
Dave Kotora (Aurora H.S.) is 23-7 on the year and should earn a seed at 190, while senior Cliff Andres (177) and junior Ed Hamway (167) could also be seeded. Hamway placed third at MACs at 167 a year ago.
Meanwhile, freshmen Brent Thompson (118), Jeremy Orsky (Hwt) and Mark Wentz (126) have all had solid rookie seasons.
Thompson, fresh off an upset win over top-ranked Davon Gray of Central Michigan in his last match, has come on strong of late. Orsky has been competitive all year at heavyweight, while Wentz (Streetsboro H.S.) has won 10 matches and is fully recovered from a concussion suffered on Feb. 20.
"The guys we have are all in pretty good shape," said Romano. "They've worked really hard and they're looking forward to wrestling at home. We haven't hosted the conference tournament since 1993, and we performed pretty well that year."
The Flashes finished second in '93 and have been runner-up the past two seasons. Kent State was the preseason pick to claim the conference crown this year, but that's no longer the case entering the MAC Championships.
"I wouldn't consider us the favorite," said Romano. "Everybody has to wrestle at their top level for us to do really well. What is really well? That's a relative question. We just want everyone to get the most out of his abilities and see where we end up."
Dual meet champion Ohio (5-0) and Central Michigan (4-1) would have to be considered the favorites entering the tournament.
The Chippewas were ranked as high as 14th in the country before losing to the Bobcats. They feature three wrestlers that are ranked among the top 10 in the country: Casey Cunningham (2nd, 142), Ryan Cunningham (6th, 158) and Mike Greenfield (10th, 177).
Ohio has two returning All-Americans in Shawn Enright (134) and Dwight Gardner (158). Enright is currently ranked eighth in the country, while Gardner is fifth.
Northern Illinois also has a returning All-American in Jeremy Goeden (25-1 at 190), who is currently seventh in the country.
Former Aurora High School star Tim Courtad (Hwt) anchors a formidable Miami squad along with Barry Jarvis (167). Courtad, the MAC's top-ranked heavyweight, is 20-6 and has been ranked among the nation's top 20.
"This is the strongest field we've had in many years," said Romano. "We have at least 12 wrestlers who have been ranked in the top 20 in the nation and that's pretty impressive for a six team league."
Along with each individual champion five wild card wrestlers will be chosen to represent the conference at the NCAA Championships, which will be held March 19-21 at the CSU Convocation Center in Cleveland. The MAC only received two wild card entries a year ago, which cost several Kent State wrestlers who finished second at the MAC Championships a shot at competing in the national tournament.
The preliminary round will begin Saturday at 1 p.m., followed by semifinals and wrestlebacks at 6 p.m. Finals and challenge matches will begin Sunday at 1 p.m.
Admission is $5 per session for adults and $3 for Kent State students, children under 12 and senior citizens.

A lot can happen in nine months. Born late in the summer of 2011, Reconstrvct has built up quite a reputation, indeed one of the most newest yet most advancing electronic music gathering in North America. The bi-monthly (once every 2 months) underground event brings together enthusiasts and fans from a multitude of time zones, all to celebrate the most prolific, forward thinking artists, producers, and DJ's in the electronic dance music scene. With no exceptions, an RSVP is required for entry, as the private location is not announced until the day of the event. Newcomers need not worry, as the mobile-friendly website is equipped with a geolocation feature, providing turn-by-turn directions from one's location to the announced venue.
Staying true to the mantra "Low Frequency with Decencyâ€, the blissful vibe is authentic and relaxed, thus devoid of the uniformity that so commonly propagates today's mainstream culture. Those who've shared the experience know that the fusing of key elements is what makes for a truly epic night. Resident and guest DJ's like Baltimore's Joe Nice (former Dubwar resident) mix real vinyl and freshly pressed, exclusive dub plates on the custom-built sound system provided by Andrew Eiselle (former sound engineer at legendary Club Love of Tsunami Bass Experience).
While other events and club nights have bastardized the music for commercial gain, or simply lost steam, Reconstrvct is breaking new ground with its first annual forthcoming event entitled Reconstrvct Brooklyn, New York Presents Outlook Festival Launch Party June 2, 2012.
For this special collaborative event, we've teamed up to the Outlook Festival organizers to bring forth an unparalleled, international line-up to a special new Brooklyn venue. Over the course of the night, two lucky rsvp winners will be given tickets to the week long festival in Fort Punta Cristo Croatia nestled along the Mediterranean coastline. In addition, limited edition silkscreen prints and t-shirts will be given out as well as available for purchase. The party will begin at sharply 10pm and go until just before sunrise.
Although the insanely talented Goth Trad had originally been booked for this event, due to visa delay he was forced to cancel; the good news is he is coming later in the summer and the Deep Medi veteran and sound master known as ________ is coming to hold it down. We can't announce til day of the event who it is, but we promise it is not going to disappoint.
Author, is the brainchild of Leeds based electronic producers Jack Sparrow and Ruckspin. It may be a new name on the scene, yet the producer duo that constitutes Author are certainly no newbies in their own right. Both Ruckspin and Jack Sparrow have established themselves as highly gifted and hardworking producers, dedicated to engineering optimum quality sounds. Removed from the pressure of the dance floor, Author takes the baton from Kruder & Dorfmeister's 'K&D Sessions', The Cinematic Orchestra and timeless Mowax recordings in exploring more spacious arrangements and sounds. It represents the opportunity to experiment within the context of electronic music, collaborating with live musicians and celebrating a wide palate of musical influences. Jack Sparrow has had a slew of deep dance floor killers under his belt on Contagious, Earwax, and Pushing Red Recordings, as well as jaw-dropping debut LP 'Circadian' out on Tectonic last year. Alongside Sparrow, fellow Leeds based beat-sculptor, long standing friend Ruckspin is also a key member and producer for the live band super-group Submotion Orchestra.
Representing Baltimore and one of Reconstrvct's resident DJ's, JoeNice is universally recognized as the ambassador of the new sound in North America and has been instrumental in the growth and success of electronic music for nearly a decade, playing the music long before it was widely known. A true performer having toured the world as well as the States, JoeNice is known for his enthusiastic stage presence, exclusive track selections, and impeccable mixing skills. His record bag is a who's who of one off and VIP releases being that it if you've never heard it before, chances are, you will hear it from JoeNice. As a co-founder of the now defunct, legendary Dubwar night in NYC, he was recently selected by URB magazine's next 100 and is continually taking the sound to new levels.
Reconstrvct's own TrueNature has been on it, working relentlessly in his Brooklyn studio preparing something special for the christening set. Please prepare for a truly remarkable night in Brooklyn, New York as we celebrate Reconstrvct's 1st Annual Launch of the Outlook Festival. As usual, come as you are, bring your dancing shoes, and leave high on music.

The word Restaurant literally means to restore the soul, but if restaurants are to approach that goal, they must draw this power from the kitchen. But before a restaurant can take a breath of its own, the heart must be planned, designed and built. There are three points to focus on when planning a commercial kitchen: purpose, budget and space. These three points, although considered chronologically, intertwine throughout the whole process.
The primary objective of a commercial kitchen resides in its menu. Kevin Morrison, cofounder of Spicy Pickle Franchising Company, states that the first thing to designing a kitchen is understanding your menu. The menu will dictate the basic equipment needs, as well as beginning to develop the budget required, and the necessary square footage, layout and floor plan.
Strict and proper budgeting of time, space and money are required when designing a commercial kitchen. You will need adequate time for bidding and review by building and health departments. Understanding regulatory limitations, ventilation and safety concerns will play into a final design you can afford. The final design result should be a work area that keeps in mind the inherent human life responsibility that comes with preparing food but is not overly burdened and encumbered with safety restrictions.
Restaurant industry writer Foster Frable Jr. recommends spending the time to identify the core objectives for the kitchen and making sure the estimates are within the established budget before moving onto construction. Budgeting time, especially during the bidding process, can reward the owner with lower prices and fewer misunderstandings.
The kitchen needs to be big enough for equipment doors to open and people to move around but, depending on location, square footage can come at a premium. Organization of not only the equipment but the location of entrance and receiving areas need to be carefully reviewed. In most cases this review is done by a professional kitchen design consultant or with the aid of kitchen design software. The space must not just meet legal regulations, but also maximize efficiency.
Commercial Kitchen Ovens
The most basic of equipment needs found at the center of every commercial kitchen is an oven. Choosing the right oven again depends on the menu, but projected sales volume and budget constraints also help to determine the appropriate unit. Most commercial kitchens use a cooktop unit that incorporates a range burner on top and a standard oven below. Kitchens that make bread may include or substitute the standard oven for a convection oven because it circulates the heat while cooking, making it ideal for baking.

Missing Columbus Dog Found One Year Later in Richmond, Virginia Hotel
A Columbus family is relieved after learning their dog, missing for one year, was discovered hundreds of miles away in an abandoned hotel room in Richmond, Virginia.
The Christmas tree sparkles and the gifts are stacked underneath.
A much happier holiday scene than last year in the McGregor house.
"It was the day we were leaving for my in-laws for the holidays and we were just beside ourselves," said Jone Mason McGregor.
The family's four year old fur ball, Penny, just vanished.
"It's like a beloved member of our family gone," said McGregor. "We were like the sad family that showed up at the pound every day for like months."
The family let Penny out in the backyard. They think she somehow slipped under the fence and got away.
"Think about the logistics of an eight pound dog and all the things that could happen to her, but in my heart of hearts I just felt she was still somewhere around," said McGregor.
McGregor's feeling was right. But that somewhere was nowhere near. Little Penny turned up in a hotel room in Richmond, Virginia, abandoned.
"It's 479 miles," said McGregor. "I burst into tears. I couldn't believe it,"
McGregor has no idea where Penny's been or who's had her. The family's just happy she's about to come home.
"It's really an amazing Christmas gift to our family," said McGregor.
McGregor's husband plans to drive to Virginia Sunday to pick Penny up.
The couple hopes to learn more about where she has been this whole time.

Cepeda: President has tough, opportunistic task ahead with immigration reform
January 7, 2013
Last Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press," President Obama said that fixing our broken immigration system is one of the top priorities of his second term. He promised to introduce legislation this year to get it done.
No doubt the president felt the need to reiterate this well-worn pledge after two weeks of holiday-related news coverage detailing the impact his administration's unprecedented deportations have had on immigrant communities across the country. Those news features were kicked off by the Department of Homeland Security's announcement that a record 409,849 individuals were deported in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30.
Those with only a passing interest in the issue might be forgiven for assuming that immigrants who were shown the door were the kind of people who pose a threat to our communities and our nation's security.
Unfortunately, this was not exactly true. And the subtle misrepresentation about the types of people who are being expelled calls into question how these latest statistics will be used to either hammer the president for not doing more to keep illegal immigrants in the country or to again raise the specter that his immigration books are cooked just as compromises on reforms are being negotiated.
Though John Morton, the director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, stated that 55 percent of those deported were convicted of felonies or misdemeanors — about twice the number of people in such categories deported in fiscal year 2008 — the immigrants in question are not overwhelmingly murderers, gang-bangers or drug pushers we'd normally assume them to be.
According to Bryan Johnson, an immigration attorney and blogger in New York, the only reason that ICE is breaking deportation records is because Border Patrol apprehensions are also counted. When these individuals are caught a second time crossing the border, they are then prosecuted for illegal re-entry, a federal felony.

Johnson told me he thinks DHS and the administration "want to make it look like they're prioritizing their efforts, but I think they're intentionally shifting numbers so that they look like they're deporting more and more criminals when in fact they're not — they're simply destroying more families."
While the distinction may not mean much to those who want to send all illegal immigrants packing, it actually causes two harms. First, it contributes to the incorrect, though popular, belief that simply being present in this country without the proper documentation is a criminal offense — it's usually only a civil offense, most often for overstaying a visa.
Second, it creates the illusion that limited resources are being spent getting hardened, dangerous criminals out of our communities, when it is not quite the case.
Mary Giovagnoli, director of the Washington, D.C.-based Immigration Policy Center, agrees that whether because of purposeful intent to paint deportation statistics in the best possible light — or simply because the quirks of government reporting produce un-nuanced, aggregate numbers that don't tell the whole story — it's important for those interested in our immigration policy to understand what the numbers really mean.
A soon-to-be released report from her organization will detail how these intricacies reflect an increasingly sweeping and punitive U.S. immigration enforcement environment.
"During the course of the Bush and Obama administrations, DHS and ICE have tried to show they're tough on enforcement to try to soften the ground a little bit for eventual immigration reforms," Giovagnoli said in an interview. "But ever since 2005, when Operation Streamline ordered federal criminal charges for every person crossing the border illegally, the system is on auto-pilot to criminalize immigrants, subjecting them to the most vigorous enforcement with few mechanisms for getting out of the system.
"Ironically, these large numbers can be used to say that we're at a tipping point and that the administration should find ways to bring the system back into balance by providing more opportunities for relief."
As immigration returns to the national discourse, President Obama would surely benefit from clearing up rampant misperceptions surrounding his administration's deportation numbers — and championing policy changes that will ensure that enforcement measures focus on the most serious threats to our nation's safety.
