A gathering in Covington, Ky. over the Brent Spence Bridge signaled the community is still divided about using tolls to pay for the $2.5 billion bridge project, even as public officials admit tolls are most likely necessary to complete the project. Many local and state officials believe the federal government should pay for the interstate bridge, but they're also pessimistic about the chances of receiving federal funds. Covington Mayor Sherry Carran says she's concerned about safety at the functionally obsolete bridge, but she says tolls could have a negative impact on Covington.
On Wednesday, Hamilton County commissioners are expected to vote on an annual budget that nearly matches the county administrator's original proposal. The budget is

A study from Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and three other community organizations found idling school bus and car motors might pose a serious health risk to students. The most problematic pollutants are particularly concentrated when cars and buses are standing, and the toxic particles linger around schools and playgrounds for hours after the vehicles leave, according to the study. For researchers, the findings are evidence buses and cars should turn off their motors when dropping off children at school.
The Cincinnati Enquirer and other major newspapers lost thousands of readers in the past year, even though some newspapers managed to buck the trend and gain in certain categories, according to a circulation audit from the Alliance for Audited Media. Between September 2012 and September 2013, The Enquirer's circulation dropped by more than 10 percent, while The Toledo Blade and Dayton Daily News increased their circulation. The drop coincides with readers resorting to the Internet and other alternate sources in the past few years. The losses have cost newspapers advertising revenue, and many have responded with cutbacks in staff and overall news coverage.
More than half a million Ohioans qualify for tax subsidies under Obamacare, according to a new study from the Kaiser Family Foundation. Anyone between 100 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty level, or an annual income of $23,550 to $94,200 for a family of four, is eligible. But for Ohioans to take full advantage of the benefits, the federal government will first need to fix HealthCare.gov, which has been mired in technical problems since its launch on Oct. 1.Ohio Sen. Rob Portman was one of seven Republicans to support a federal ban on workplace discrimination against gays and lesbians in the U.S. Senate yesterday. All Senate Democrats backed the bill. But the bill faces grim prospects in the U.S. House of Representatives, where it's expected to fail. CityBeat covered state-level efforts to ban workplace and housing discrimination against LGBT individuals in further detail here.

The audit found The Enquirer's average daily
circulation, which excludes Saturday and Sunday, down to 117,754 from
132,076 between September 2012 and September 2013. Sunday circulation
fell to 235,515 from 262,876. The numbers represent a 10.8 percent decline in average daily circulation and 10.4 percent on Sundays.
The Akron Beacon Journal and Youngstown Vindicator also saw negative trends, with average daily and Sunday circulation dropping.
Cleveland's The Plain Dealer lost some of its Sunday circulation, but comparable statistics weren't available for average daily circulation because the newspaper transitioned from daily delivery to three-times-a-week delivery earlier in the year.
But The Toledo Blade and Dayton Daily News actually increased their average daily and Sunday circulation.
The Columbus Dispatch also upped its average daily circulation, but Sunday circulation fell.
For newspapers, dropping circulation coincides with more readers getting their news from the Internet and alternative sources over the past few years. The alternatives have cost newspapers around the country readers and advertising revenue, and many have responded with cutbacks in staff and overall news coverage.
In August, The Enquirer moved and laid off staff from its Kentucky and West Chester offices. The layoffs came as parent company Gannett dismissed more than 400 workers around the country, according to estimates from Gannett Blog.
Other media outlets appear to be taking advantage of the new vacancy. The Business Courier reported on Monday that Cox Media's Journal-News is increasing its presence in Butler and Warren counties to compete with The Enquirer. The move follows Cox Media's decision to merge its Hamilton and Middletown newspapers into a single entity that covers both cities and counties.

Judge Timothy Black ruled to continue with a lawsuit that will decide whether same-sex marriages conducted in other states should be acknowledged on Ohio's death certificates. The lawsuit originally appeared to matter only to a Cincinnati gay couple, but it's been expanded to potentially reflect on the rights of all gay couples in the state. Black is expected to give his final ruling on the lawsuit in December. If Black rules in favor of same-sex couples, it could be the latest step forward in an ongoing line of progress for LGBT rights. Although same-sex marriage remains illegal in Ohio, gay couples can now jointly file for federal taxes.

Atheist marriages may last longer than Christian ones. Research shows that divorce rates are highest among Baptists and nondenominational Christians, while more "theologically liberal" Christians like Methodists enjoy lower rates. The findings showed that Atheist marriages held the lowest divorce rates.

Councilman Wendell Young and five other council members on Oct. 30 signed a motion that asks the city administration to budget $2 million to address racial disparities in Cincinnati.
The motion cites three statistical disparities: Infant mortality rates for black babies are three times the rate for white babies; the unemployment rate for black residents is two to three times the rate for white residents; and the black population only makes up 1 percent of the Cincinnati area's economic worth despite making up nearly half of the city's population.
"As the City of Cincinnati invests in infrastructure to support economic development and job growth, in developments that attract new businesses, and in job retention and growth, it is of critical importance that all members of the Cincinnati community participate in our progress and prosperity," Young's motion states.
Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls and council members Pam Thomas, Laure Quinlivan, Chris Seelbach and Yvette Simpson joined Young in signing the motion.
The motion asks the city administration to budget $500,000 to each of four organizations in fiscal year 2015: the Urban League of Greater Cincinnati, the Hamilton County Community Action Agency, the African American Chamber of Commerce and the Center for Closing the Health Gap. The money will "support minority business startups and entrepreneurship, job training and workforce development, and access to healthy foods and health care," according to the motion.
The proposal comes as the city administration begins putting together a disparity study to gauge whether the administration can and should favorably target minority- and women-owned businesses through Cincinnati's business contracts. The results for that study will come back in February 2015.
It's unclear how much weight the motion will carry in the upcoming weeks. On Nov. 5, voters will elect a new mayor and City Council. The next city administration and council could have a completely different approach — or no approach at all — to addressing racial disparity issues.

The Ohio Supreme Court on Thursday expedited the 1851 Center for Constitutional Law's challenge against the federally funded Medicaid expansion, which Republican Gov. John Kasich pushed through the Controlling Board, a seven-member legislative panel, despite resistance from the Ohio legislature.
The case will decide whether Kasich was constitutionally allowed to bypass the legislature to expand Medicaid eligibility to more low-income Ohioans. The 1851 Center says the Controlling Board isn't allowed to go against the will of the legislature. The Kasich administration argues the Controlling Board can unilaterally accept federal funds.
With the case now expedited, both sides will submit their arguments on the merits of the case to the state's highest court by Dec. 1.
Kasich tried for most of 2013 to get the expansion approved by the Ohio House and Senate, but he couldn't convince Republican legislators, who control both chambers, to approve the plan.
But instead of accepting defeat, Kasich asked the Controlling Board to take up federal funds for the expansion. The board approved the funds on Oct. 21.
The legal complaint was filed on Oct. 22 on behalf of Republican State Reps. Matt Lynch, Ron Young, Andy Thompson, Ron Maag, John Becker and Ron Hood, Cleveland Right to Life and Right to Life of Greater Cincinnati.
Kasich, in a rare alliance with Democrats, says the Medicaid expansion is necessary to insure more low-income Ohioans and obtain federal Obamacare dollars that would go to other states if Ohio declined the expansion.
But Republican legislators say they're concerned about the government's involvement in the health care system and whether the federal government can afford to pay for the Medicaid expansion.
Under Obamacare, states are asked to expand Medicaid eligibility to reach anyone up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or individuals with an annual income of $15,856.20 or less. If states accept, the federal government will pay for the entire expansion through fiscal year 2016 then gradually phase down its payments to 90 percent of the expansion. In comparison, the Kaiser Family Foundation found the federal government paid for nearly 64 percent of Ohio's Medicaid program in fiscal year 2013.
The expansion would fill a so-called "coverage gap" under Obamacare and Ohio law. Without it, parents with incomes between 90 percent and 100 percent of the federal poverty level and childless adults with incomes below 100 percent of the federal poverty level won't qualify for either Obamacare's tax credits or Medicaid.
The Health Policy Institute of Ohio (HPIO) previously found the expansion would insure between 300,000 and 400,000 Ohioans through fiscal year 2015. If the expansion is approved beyond that, HPIO says it would generate $1.8 billion for Ohio and insure nearly half a million Ohioans over the next decade.
If the Ohio Supreme Court upholds the Controlling Board's decision, the Medicaid expansion will go into effect in 2014 and cost the federal government nearly $2.6 billion, according to the Ohio Department of Medicaid.
The Ohio Department of Taxation this week released separate tax forms that will allow gay couples who live in the state but got married in another state to jointly file for taxes at the federal level. But because of Ohio's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage, same-sex couples won't be able to jointly file for taxes at the state or local level.
Although the move is being received as a step forward for Ohio's gay couples, some LGBT groups say the discrepancy between different levels of government shows the need to push for marriage equality in Ohio.
Why Marriage Matters Ohio, which is trying to educate Ohioans on the benefits of same-sex marriage, pointed out the discrepancy in an emailed statement on Wednesday.
"This is why marriage equality matters in Ohio. This is why we're working to build support for affording all Ohio families the protections and responsibilities that only marriage offers," wrote Elyzabeth Holdford, executive director of Equality Ohio and board chair of Why Marriage Matters Ohio.
FreedomOhio, which is attempting to get same-sex marriage on the November 2014 ballot, also criticized the discrepancy on Thursday.
"While many will appreciate the extra tax benefits, this separate and unequal treatment of families is unfair, unequal and is not the treatment we seek," said Ian James, co-founder of FreedomOhio, in a statement. "FreedomOhio is committed to bringing equal rights to all Ohioans."
Beyond the issue of equal rights, allowing same-sex marriages in Ohio could generate economic activity. A study conducted by Bill LaFayette, founder of Regionomics, LLC, found marriage equality could produce $100-$126 million in economic growth within three years in the state and $8.2 million in the same time span in Hamilton County.
The new tax form for same-sex couples can be found here.
Mayor Mark Mallory announced on Thursday that the Bank On Greater Cincinnati initiative during its first two years reached 1,700 residents previously without a bank account, which could help boost their economic mobility. The residents kept an average of $701 in their new accounts.
The initiative connects local residents with traditional financial services so they're less reliant on check cashing and payday lending businesses. The average user of payday lending services spends $900 a year in fees, according to the mayor's office.
Of course, the initiative benefits banks as well by connecting them to more potential customers who otherwise might forgo traditional banking services.
Bank On Greater Cincinnati is a partnership between Cincinnati, Covington, Newport, SmartMoney, the Cincinnati branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and 13 participating banks.
SmartMoney now manages Bank On in conjunction with Greater Cincinnati Saves, which encourages individuals to make a pledge to grow their savings. In the seven months that both initiatives worked together, 490 people took the pledge, a 220-percent increase over previous years, according to the mayor's office.
"We are helping move people into the financial mainstream so they can begin to save and build assets," Mallory said in a statement. "I want to thank all of our partners that help make this initiative so successful. Bank On will continue to help families establish bank accounts and receive strong financial education to help them manage their money."
A November 2009 study from the Economic Mobility Project found a connection between savings and economic mobility. According to the study, high personal savings can greatly benefit both an individual during his or her lifetime or the individual's children.
"Seventy-one percent of children born to high-saving, low-income parents move up from the bottom income quartile over a generation, compared to only 50 percent of children of low-saving, low-income parents," the study found.
The improvement could add up for Cincinnati, which is still mired in troubling economic indicators despite some economic progress in the past few years. More than half of the city's children lived in poverty in 2012, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Another study released in July by economists at Harvard University and University of California, Berkeley, found Cincinnati ranked 650 among 728 markets analyzed for upward economic mobility.

The Ohio legislature is working through a bill that would limit ballot access for minor parties, which argue the petitioning and voting requirements are meant to help Gov. John Kasich's chances of re-election in 2014. The Ohio House narrowly passed the bill yesterday with looser restrictions than those set by the Ohio Senate earlier in the month, but a legislative error in the House means neither chamber will hammer out the final details until they reconvene next week. Republicans say the bill is necessary to set some basic standards for who can get on the ballot. Democrats have joined with minor parties in calling the bill the "John Kasich Re-election Protection Act" because it would supposedly protect Kasich from tea party and other third-party challengers after his support for the federally funded Medicaid expansion turned members of his conservative base against him.
As an attorney and lobbyist at Keating, Muething & Klekamp (KMK), mayoral candidate John Cranley helped payroll company Paycor finalize plans to move its headquarters
— and 450 to 500 jobs with it — from Queensgate in Cincinnati to
Norwood, Ohio. Specifically, KMK and several of its employees, including
Cranley, helped Paycor and Norwood set up a tax credit deal to
incentivize the company's relocation. The Cranley campaign says he was
just doing his job after Paycor went to KMK, not the other way around.
But supporters of Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, Cranley's opponent in the
mayoral race, say he shouldn't be helping companies leave the city he
wants to lead. Paycor's move in 2014 means the city will have to take
back some of the money it gave the company, through two tax deals that
Cranley approved while on City Council, to encourage it to stay in Cincinnati through 2015. Cranley received a $1,100 campaign contribution from Paycor CEO Bob Coughlin on Aug. 20.

As an attorney and lobbyist at Keating, Muething & Klekamp (KMK), mayoral candidate John Cranley helped payroll company Paycor finalize plans to move its headquarters — and 450 to 500 jobs with it — from Queensgate in Cincinnati to Norwood, Ohio.
Specifically, KMK helped Paycor and Norwood set up a tax credit deal to incentivize the company's relocation. Throughout the
process, the law firm called on several of its employees, including
Cranley, to help with the negotiations.
For Paycor, the move comes after more than two decades in Cincinnati. The company originally looked in Cincinnati for bigger headquarters with better parking options, but ultimately couldn't find a location to its liking, according to a May 2012 memo from the city manager. So when Paycor found a location outside city limits and worked out a tax incentive package with Norwood and Ohio, it decided to move.
Cities and states often deploy incentive packages, ranging from property tax abatements to deductions on income taxes, to attract and retain companies. Pure Romance, a $100-million-plus "relationship enhancement" company, recently agreed to move from Loveland, Ohio, to downtown Cincinnati after securing such a tax deal with the city.
Paycor broke ground on its new headquarters in December and plans to move there next spring. The transition will pull 450 to 500 employees out of Cincinnati, and the company plans to add another 250 to 300 employees over time at its new facilities.
Cranley campaign manager Jay Kincaid says Cranley and KMK won't comment on the details of their work with Paycor or other clients for ethical reasons. But Kincaid says Cranley was just doing his job after Paycor went to KMK, not the other way around.
"In the legal profession you're asked to represent clients, and you do it to the best of your ability," Kincaid says. "At the time I don't think (Cranley) was even running for office. The firm came to him and said, 'Hey, we have a job that we need you to work on.' And he did the work, just like anyone else would at their job."
Norwood City Council approved the deal with Paycor on Oct. 23, 2012. Cranley announced his mayoral campaign three weeks later, on Nov. 14.
Cranley's critics argue that a mayoral candidate shouldn't be helping companies leave the city he wants to lead.
"It is disappointing that John (Cranley) helped Paycor leave the city with its over 450 tax-paying jobs. His efforts undercut the city's efforts to retain jobs and businesses," said Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, who is running against Cranley, in an emailed statement.
The move comes despite Cincinnati's various attempts to hang on to Paycor, including previous tax deals. In 2001, then-Councilman Cranley and the rest of City Council approved tax incentives to keep the company in Cincinnati, retain its 142 jobs at the time and create another 25. The city administration estimated the deal would cost the city $225,750 and generate $546,000 in net tax revenue over five years.
In 2006, Cranley and seven council members approved another incentive package to further secure Paycor's stay in Cincinnati.
But the deals also required Paycor to remain in Cincinnati through 2015. Since Paycor's move violates the agreement, the city administration says it plans to claw back some of the tax benefits given to the company.
In other words, Cranley in 2001 and 2006 approved tax deals with Paycor that the company, with his help, is now set to break.
City spokesperson Meg Olberding says the clawback process will begin after Paycor moves to Norwood in 2014. So if Cranley is elected by voters on Nov. 5, he would be mayor as the city is taking back some of the money it gave away.
Although the city is taking a hit, Cranley's relations with the payroll company appear unscathed. Paycor CEO Bob Coughlin contributed $1,100 to Cranley's campaign on Aug. 20, according to campaign finance reports.
Updated with more details about the tax deals between Cincinnati and Paycor.

Summer and vacation go hand in hand. Luckily for us, in southern Ohio there is a destination that seems tailor-made for getting away with the family for a day or two without the expense or effort that many other trips require.
And it's no secret either. Since Kings Island opened four decades ago in Mason, more than 120 million visitors have passed through the park's gates — many of them Ohioans who have made the destination a yearly tradition for their families.
This year, the park will open for its 2012 season on April 28, with daily operation beginning May 11.
Kings Island opened in 1972.
With each year of operation, the park has had new attractions to trumpet, and this 40th anniversary year is no exception. The Soak City Waterpark, a massive $10 million expansion of the former Boomerang Bay, has more than doubled in size from 15 to 33 acres and more than 50 water attractions. Opening May 26, entry is included with park admission.
Some of the new attractions include Tidal Wave Bay, a massive 39,000-square-foot wave pool, a new action river, entrance and more places to lounge and relax.
"Soak City is the place to go this summer for aquatic thrill-seekers," said Don Helbig, public relations area manager for the park. "With more than 50 water activities, including thrill rides, family rides, kids' play areas and plenty of lounging areas for grown-ups, Soak City is equipped to provide our guests with a best-day-of-the-year experience."
The reinvented waterpark debuts at a time when many new attractions are being added, including WindSeeker, a 301-foot-tall spinning tower that opened last year in June, and Dinosaurs Alive!, a 12-acre animatronic dinosaur park featuring more than 60 life-sized moving dinosaurs, which opened last April.
Four new live shows will also be introduced this year: "Remember When: The '70s!," "British Invasion," "Charlie Brown's All-Stars" and "Ed Alonzo's Psycho Circus of Magic and Mayhem."
Alonzo is probably best known for his role as Max in the TV show "Saved by the Bell." "British Invasion" and "Charlie Brown's All-Stars" will begin when the park opens April 28, while the other two are scheduled to begin in June.
And expect to see and hear the number 40 bandied about a lot if you're planning a visit. There are promotions galore in the works and the shops will be stocked full of 40th anniversary merchandise.
The Racer, Scrambler, Grand Carousel and the park itself are still going strong 40 years later, and so is the public's interest and appetite for what it has to offer.
The idea to open up an amusement park where Kings Island now sits was set into motion after another Ohio park — Coney Island, 10 miles east of downtown Cincinnati — fell victim to disastrous flooding in 1964 that blanketed the park in more than 14 feet of water.
Fast-forward eight years: On April 29, 1972, Kings Island opened its gates, and by the end of the first year it had set attendance records with more than 2 million people visiting. The entertainment destination been going strong ever since.
"The transition was empirical in every sense of the word," said International Theme Park Services Inc. President Dennis Speigel, who served as Kings Island's assistant general manager when the park opened.

Woman Says Toxic Mold is Making Her Family Sick
Adrianna Weingold
Photo: Video by kmir6.com
CREATED Jul. 25, 2012
LA QUINTA--A woman in La Quinta says her apartment is toxic, black mold growing in the bathroom and closets. She's complained to her landlord since January but isn't getting any answers. So, she called KMIR6 news to investigate.
We went straight to the source to find answers. We spoke with the tenant and tried getting answers from the apartment manager but were turned away.
Bethany and her 2-year-old son were forced to move after they grew increasingly ill.
"I started complaining in January of this year about and odor in my house," said Villa Cortina tenant Bethany Anderson. "I belived it was mold. There solution was changing my air filter. They've now changed that twice and after complaining for the last 7 months still nothing has been done."
After a strange smell began to surface in her apartment in La Quinta and visible signs of water damage appeared in closets and in the bathroom, Bethany thought perhaps it was mold that was making them sick.
"He's had a constant ear infection for the last 6 months that can't seem to go away from the antibiotics," Anderson said. "He run fevers, we're talking about 102 degree and 103 degree fevers. [He's] throwing up in the middle of the night for no reason. I thought maybe it was a common cold. Myself, I've had the migraines, sinus problems, and just all around kind of sluggish. Everything hurts."
Bethany says the apartment managers took a mold sample and told her it turned up negative. But Bethany hired her own environmental health agency for private testing. They found toxic black mold spores in the apartment.
We tried contacting the managers at Villa Cortina apartments but were turned away.
"I spoke with Allah right after i spoke with you about 20 minutes later and she was going to contact you," a manager at Villa Cortina Apartments said. "I can't give you any comment and at this point because it's private property i'm going to have to ask you to leave."
So we left. We're still waiting for that call.
As for Bethany, she's moving out.m She wants her money back, and she wants the apartment fixed properly so future tenants don't suffer the same sickness as she and her son.
Bethany says she also contacted the state to see if they would send someone out to inspect the apartment but she was told they simply don't have the money or resources.

Meh they couldn't actually prove anything. And I doubt anyone from Jordan Brand or Nike would tattle on MJ
Though this article doesn't mention Jordan directly, I have no doubts the NBA had Jordan in mind when they wrote it. I mentioned earlier that I thought the clandestine nature of talks was due to the potential for tampering penalties, and I think this note is representative of the fact.
I'm still wondering if BCP "insiders" posting things is a good idea.

These days, everything can become public. I love hearing information though, so think I'm not appreciative.
Also, don't you think it's interesting that they sent out a memo about this? I don't think they'd waste their time unless they had some idea it was going on. However, I'm certain that Stern doesn't want to slap a Mchale penalty on the NBA's golden boy, Michael Jordan. Just sayin'.

Bobcats Sunshine Club

It says suspension of any player. I think it was a Lebron reference.
I think it's more to do with Paul/Melo then Lebron and more the Knicks than anyone else (including the bobcats). Though Jordan is in a unique position with Jordan Brand and the individual contracts he has with NBA players.
The Knicks let it be known that everyone on their roster except Amare was available to be trade to get Paul or Melo. They can sugar coat it however they want, but that is tampering if it came from a FO source.
The biggest 'leak' from the bobcats is from a lower level Bobcats employee that him/herself was probably speculating or overheard. I know in this day and age more calls are made without the benefit of a secretary, but Rod and MJ don't draft the press release, call the media, etc. Besides, I almost think the more in a tight circle that know, the better. I would imagine most all of the coaching and scouting staff would be able to add valuable information about particular players. For example...if you follow twitter, and you are buddies with Mike Irr the Bobcats conditioning coach, has your opinion of Derrick Brown changed at all this summer? I'm sure Irr's colleagues around the league may call and touch base similar to when LB calls to talk to Popovich.
The bobcats just need to be squeaky clean in going after CP3 and Melo (if they are interested) with the Jordan Brand contracts in place.

Hi all,
I'm new to Illustrator (but understand Indesign pretty well). I have poster-sized file (32'' x 70'') that I need to send to my printing company. It will be printed at 200%. Will a PDF not be clear enough? There is one image. Do you need to "package" like in Indesign so they have the high res images and fonts?
Whats the best way to send a file for a high quality print?
The OP's InDesign Policies are probably the best way to go to link the image and prepare it at twice the resolution they expect for out put since they are printing at 200%.
However in the past many AI user would mark the Illustrator option to include linked images as a precaution. And then outline the fonts as well.
And then some made a pdf of that file as well.
I usually do not print from AI but when I have I have sent both the AI file and PDF as well and packaged the fonts and images. I have never outlined the fonts.
I agree with stevenwh504, contact the print provider. That is an over-sized offset print job which leads me to believe it is going to be printed on a large format inkjet printer. If that's the case, you can prep the entire file at 100% ( no need to scale ). Even if you could find an offset web printer, the file can still be supplied at 100%. But, as Zimmerman has suggested, the file's resolution would need to be supplied to the end output device's specifications, which you will get from the print provider. The vendor will tell you what they need. It could come down to a press quality PDF, an EPS, or a live .ai file. The vendor can also tell you what size to make the file and if they need certain things like trim marks, OP's ( over prints ) and bleeds.
From my experience working for printers:
- if it is just one off then most likely it will be printed using digital machine so you can and even should leave your photo/image as RGB,
- leave at least 3mm bleed all around, most printers would need at least that,
- convert all fonts to outlines - sending fonts is actually illegal unless they are common fonts you got with Adobe software or operating system,
- leave file as .ai - I have never heard about printing company that wouldn't have Illustrator, although may be worth to check version they can accept
- on the .pdf I would say it is not necessary as it does require some knowledge i.e. do not use comprssion, setup bleed etc, so I would stick with .ai
You may want to talk about supplementary things than file format. I'm thoughts of for example how a great deal bleeds you'll have to provide. Probability is that they will agree to. All file and PDF as fine and package the fonts and metaphors. I have not at all outlined the fonts.
Thak You

Curome Cox came to the Broncos in 2004 as a cornerback looking to make himself valuable on the Broncos' practice squad. He left the 2006 season having established himself as a crucial part of the team, with the ability to not only play cornerback and safety, but status as one of the key members of the special-teams units, as well.
Injuries in the secondary — specifically to safeties Nick Ferguson and Sam Brandon — forced Cox into the starting lineup in November alongside John Lynch at safety. His work there was the culmination of something that began out of necessity during the 2005 training camp, when injuries drained the Broncos' safety complement and forced Cox into temporary duty at the slot. His work there was so solid that the Broncos learned they had their answer to a utility infielder in baseball.
Cox grew in the year and a half that followed — mainly because there was no other option.
"Being around a group of guys like Nick (Ferguson), John (Lynch) and Champ (Bailey), there's no way it can get worse — you've got to get better, especially with the coaching staff we have," he said in November. "So I always feel like I'm steadily improving."
When Brandon and Ferguson were injured at Pittsburgh in Week 8, Cox had perhaps his finest sequence to date, recovering a Hines Ward fumble near the goal line and intercepting Ben Roethlisberger to allow Denver to hang on for their first-ever win at Heinz Field. Cox's duties that day were unexpected, but he was nonetheless prepared.
"Coach (Bob) Slowik and (Head) Coach (Mike) Shanahan always tell us, 'Mental reps at all times,'" Cox said. "There's certain situations where the guys don't even get reps in practice, but because you prepare yourself and study just as well as the starters, you're ready to go in and not get beat."
Maintaining that diligence is crucial if Cox is to continue his growth.
FINAL ANALYSIS: Led the Broncos with 15 special-teams tackles … Four of his five career starts came this past season … Has been active for every game since the Broncos promoted him from the practice squad prior to a Week 4 game at Jacksonville during the 2005 season.
NEXT: Quarterback Jay Cutler.
AND ONE MORE THING … Yes, it's always fun to channel Comic Book Guy, the Simpsons character with the three-word catchphrase "Worst … episode … ever." But only when it's accurate. The Kansas City Star's Jason Whitlock opens his postgame tome from Super Bowl XLI as follows: "Worst. Super Bowl. Ever." Come again? This wasn't even the worst Super Bowl of this decade. Give me Sunday's big plays and detours into sloppiness over the desultory 34-7 Ravens romp over the Giants in the XXXVth edition of the season-ending carnival. The only fun in that game was sitting behind none other than Mr. Did-You-Ever Notice, a.k.a. 60 Minutes essayist Andy Rooney, in the auxiliary media section. I wasn't sure which part of the experience dismayed him more — the fact that his beloved Giants had such a lousy day or that he was within earshot of a fusillade of f-bombs fired by a media member sitting down the row from me.

Very enjoyable tour...highly recommended..beautiful scenery throughout the entire trip.
Was very exciting, the tour package and guide was great, everything was like being in heaven
If you have time / budgetary constraints and can do only one tour then you should opt for the "Singaraja and Bedugul North Coast Bali Mountain Tour". It is definitely the best of the three tours I did with Viator in Bali. A bit long and tiring but no visits to pushy touristy shops.
The scenery, the temple, the view of the twin lakes is just awesome. The lunch at Lovina Beach was once again sad. Only a fixed (not cheap) buffet as we were told that ordering a-la-carte would take too long.
The waterfalls were not too impressive but the walk from the main road to the site was not meant for out of shape smokers!! Almost gave up half way!
Really enjoyed this trip. Worth doing.
This was a great day. Lovely to get up into the mountains. The temple was lovely and the Waterfalls were spectacular. Lunch was good too. It was a long day though, but lots to look at.
Chris C
Tour guide collected us from hotel at correct time. Whole experience was done very professionally. Guide very knowledgeable, all places we went to were very interesting. I would recommend this tour to everyone. Have used Viator in several countries now and have found that they always deliver a quality product.
Carol M
very interesting. Only 2 of us on the tour so we got personal attention
Julia F
United Kingdom
This is one trip I would say you shouldn't miss. The North Coast of Bali is stunning, and the terrace rice fields are really picture postcards. We had a lovely guide and he was a credit to the tour company. This day trip was the highlight of our holiday in Bali.
Gail F
We had an absoulutely fantastic time. We saw and experienced the Balinese culture. Who made it great were the guides. We cannot speak highly enough of them. They were very informative and friendly and took the time to answer all our questions. This trip is well worth doing if you want to see the whole of Bali and experience everything it has to offer.
Jayne K
A really great day with a wonderful driver and guide, I got a really good look into the Balinese way of life and lots of cultural information from my excellent guide. The temple was very beautiful and lunch at Lovina Beach very enjoyable, all round a full and interesting day.
Viv C
United Kingdom
Bali has to be seen to be appreciated, and this trip certainly helped. Both our guide and driver were first class.
United Kingdom
If I could only do one trip it would be this one.
We went by small bus and the two of us were with another couple. Guide was knowledgeable. Saw some nice lakes and visited the falls that were private and out of the way. Lunch stop was at a beautiful open air, quiet restaurant on the beach with buffet lunch.
Tour guide was excellent and very informative about the culture and customs of Bali. Waterfall was beautiful!
Very good trip, Tour guide was terrific, lots of information re Bali and jsut general information. Most enjoyable, would recommend it.

Franklin Blue Cat has just learned he has a daughter and asks his Kiowa healer to help him find her. Adam Two Eagles accepts the challenge and calls on the Old Ones to direct Sonora to the place where she belongs. When she finally arrives, he is not too surprised to discover she is the woman who has been haunting his dreams. Although he wants her to accept who she is and to acknowledge the powerful magic that surrounds her, he cannot deny their strong mutual attraction. As she too succumbs, she realizes she must first eliminate the danger that threatens both her and those she is learning to love.
In short, Rider on Fire is a fairly standard woman-in-danger story mixed with a good dose of Native American mysticism. Although most of it worked, I found enough gaps in the plot to make me wonder whether the story had been trimmed down from a much larger novel without double-checking for any resulting inconsistencies. For example, when Sonora first arrives, Adam accepts an invitation to breakfast on the condition that Frank makes fry bread (a Southwestern and Native American meal that, despite living in Phoenix, Sonora doesn't seem to know). That condition is completely ignored the next day when she makes biscuits instead. This is a fairly minor point and doesn't really alter the course of the story, but the unexpected change of mind did grate enough to interrupt my attention and ultimately disturb my pleasure.
Other plot omissions are more substantial. While the cast is larger than in other books of the same category, information is sparse and incomplete. I closed the book wondering what happened to the investigator who was last seen drinking coffee in a roadside diner. I also had a question or two about the main characters. Adam Two Eagles's youthful rebellion against his Native American heritage and his past in the Army Rangers are hinted at but never fully recounted. Similarly, we never learn why Sonora was abandoned on the steps of an orphanage, what happened to her mother and why the latter waited twenty-nine years before visiting Frank in a dream to tell him about their daughter's existence.
Aside from these problems with plot, I found Sonora somewhat unbelievable. She doesn't always behave as the tough biker chick and the experienced and valued DEA agent she is supposed to be. For one, she warms up very quickly to her newfound father - I was counting on a little more incredulity, hesitation and even anger from someone who has been trained to investigate and who still suffers the consequences of being abandoned. For another, Sonora is afraid of the dark. This might be a humanizing and almost endearing flaw if she didn't always fall to pieces when Adam was there to hold her. In fact, the only indication of Sonora's independence is in her comfort with her body and her sexual desires. While this is a trait I like in romance heroines, it is not the first thing that comes to mind about a butt-kicking superwoman.
Indeed, I began to wonder whether Sonora's proclamations of independence and self-sufficiency were empty words. I was even expecting her to allow Adam to star in the final showdown with the Mexican drug lord, but that fight is definitely hers. Almost, anyway. (It's probably pretty clear who the others involved are, but I can't say anything more.)
Despite these shortcomings, Sharon Sala knows enough about romantic suspense to make Rider on Fire an acceptable read. Hopefully, next time she will take more time to color in and finish the drawing instead of just sketching it.

Incredible comeback from DawgsSeptember 26, 2012, 12:01 am by Wayne Craig If you were part of the packed house at Bulldog Stadium Friday night, you more than got your moneys worth. It was one of those games where pacemaker patients and pregnant women might should have consulted their doctors before attending. The Bulldogs had a comfortable 14-0 lead at the end of the first, but that comfort zone vanished quick and with the scoreboard reading 17-17 at halftime things were far from cozy in the Bulldog locker room. The third quarter was like a downhill spiral on a crazy coaster ride that brought the insanity factor out of many fans, coaches, and players alike. The Hawks turned a Bulldog fumble into early third quarter points, 24-17. The visitors completely silenced the once roaring Burnet fan base when on their very next series they again found pay-dirt on an endzone pass that made it 31-17 just two minutes later, and thats how the third ended. The Bulldogs were living on life-support, almost flat-lined at times until a shocking resuscitation came. That jolt was an 8-yard Trenton Hafley run behind a sick Cameron Langley block that had the pride of Burnet gasping for air. Even though the conversion was missed, and the Dawgs trailed by eight points, 31-23, there was new found life and those small hairs on the back of the Bulldogs necks began to rise. The teams traded a few punts running off valuable time but Burnet punter Austin Huff couldnt have placed his punt better penning the Hawks just inside their 2-yard line with an absolutely sensational 54-yard spot-on boot that drew instant gratification from the homecoming crowd. |

The New York Mets on Monday signed manager Terry Collins to a two-year contract extension.
The Amazins' skipper is 36 games under .500 during his tenure in New York.
But Collins won praise for guiding his squad through numerous noteworthy injuries to star players, like Matt Harvey and David Wright.
"It's time to put some wins on the board, and as Sandy said, we have to start winning at home," Collins said.
The Mets finished their 2013 season Sunday with a win over the Brewers.
Their record of 74 wins and 88 loses was the same as last year.
The extension also includes a club option for 2016.

Specificity / Sensitivity
Flotillin-1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total flotillin-1 protein.
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding residue surrounding Ile368 of human flotillin-1. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.
Flotillins belong to a family of lipid raft-associated integral membrane proteins that carry a evolutionarily conserved domain called the prohibitin homology domain (PHB) (1). Flotillin members are ubiquitously expressed and located to non-caveolar microdomains (lipid rafts) on the cell plasma membrane where they support signal transduction and regulate lipid raft motility and localization (2-5). Two flotillin members have been described, flotillin-1 and flotillin-2. In addition to its colocalization with lipid rafts on the plasma membrane, flotillin-1 also has been found at compartments of the endocytic and autophagosomal pathways, such as recycling/late endosomes, the Golgi complex, as well as the nucleus (6,7). Flotillin-2 is mainly localized to the plasma membrane and is prevalent in cell-cell contact sites. However, overexpressed flotillin-2 has also been found in the late endosome (4,8,9). Both flotillin-1 and flotillin-2 are commonly used as lipid raft associated markers.
