Republicans Court Silicon Valley for Campaign Cash
April 3, 2013
Republicans hope to lure Silicon Valley money from Democrats and cash in on the growing technology pie.
Oscar Nominees Award Dems Millions in Political Money
February 22, 2013
Politicians watching the Oscars this weekend of course will be seeing stars, just like the rest of us. But many of them -- Democrats, at least -- may see something much more alluring: dollar signs. Of the 51 actors, directors and producers nominated for the six most-watched categories, 25 nominees or their spouses have contributed to a political candidate or cause since 1990, nearly all of them Democratic. Most supported Obama either in 2008 or 2012, or both. And "Lincoln" is the money-and-politics blockbuster of the year.
Capital Eye Opener, Jan. 31: FEC Increases Contribution Limits, Urban Outfitters Enlists K Street, and More
January 31, 2013
The FEC's higher contribution limits may be better news for Republicans than Dems: far more contributors maxed out to Romney than Obama. Also, Urban Outfitters' new CEO leans right, a distinct change from the chain's last leader.

Free press must stay
10:21am Friday 7th December 2012 in Letters By Reader's letter
APPARENTLY a law to shackle the press is illegal. After the Leveson Report, a small number of people (many of them celebrities) want censorship of the press introduced.
Leveson highlighted how very private emails, etc, concerning the lives of these celebrities were used by certain newspapers – a deplorable practice, indeed.
It is understandable, following such revelations, why these celebrities are backing press censorship.
However, this would definitely be a step too far. Could recent history be repeating itself? Press censorship and disapproval of political parties happened in the not too far distant past.
Where did newspaper gagging and, ultimately, control of the broadcasting happen? Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler.
Doubtless many will ridicule this comparison, but our media is the only way we can know what is happening in our country and around the world.
Media censorship is an extremely powerful weapon toward "bending" the will and, ultimately, the way the populace of a country will "think" of their politicians.
Press-censoring must never be part of our laws.
Philip Roe, Roman Avenue South, Stamford Bridge, York.

Article by: Brandy Rand - Wine is one of life's great pleasures, and for on-premise operators, it can also be an expensive one. From spoilage to storage, broken bottles to recycling, a high-volume restaurant can spend a small fortune trying to keep up with consumers' appetite for wine. Though packaging innovation has been on-going in the industry (screw caps, synthetic corks, bag-in-a-box), keg wine has been a bit slow to catch due to setup costs, maintenance and a lack of [...] Read More »

Historical Context
The Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s
African Americans began taking a more active stance in the 1950s to end discrimination in the United States. The 1952 Supreme Court case, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka successfully challenged segregation in public schools. Then civil rights leaders launched the Montgomery bus boycott to end segregation on southern transportation systems. For close to a year African Americans in Montgomery, Alabama, refused to ride the public bus system, and in November 1956, the Supreme Court declared such segregation laws unconstitutional. Meanwhile, despite the earlier court ruling, school desegregation was slow in coming. In 1957, when nine African Americans attempted to attend Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas, the governor sent the National Guard to prevent them from doing so. The students were not able to enter the school until three weeks later and under protection from federal troops. Despite angry whites who resented this integration, most of the students graduated from Central High. In the midst of this crisis, President Dwight Eisenhower signed the Civil Rights Act of 1957. The first civil rights law passed since Reconstruction, this act made it a federal crime to prevent any qualified person from voting. Also that year, southern civil rights leaders formed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SLCC), led by the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. to end discrimination.
The Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s
The SLCC advocated nonviolent resistance to achieve its goals, and many non-SLCC members took up nonviolent protests of their own. In February 1960, four African-American college students staged a sit-in at a lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina. Within weeks, similar demonstrations had spread throughout the South. White racists responded angrily to these demonstrators, and sometimes their harassment escalated into physical attacks, but the demonstrators remained impassive. By the end of the year, many restaurants throughout the South had been integrated.
In May 1961, a northern-based, integrated civil rights group launched the Freedom Rides to protest segregation in interstate transportation. These young activists set off by bus from Washington, D.C., with the intention of traveling through the South, but...

The game was awesome but single player campaign was utterly small game was very enjoyable game play is too gud in first one but there is no chance for pc but features section belongs to BORDERLANDS make sure to edit that thing and last word go for it its worth the money noir style games are rare cases so i like that one and also Alan wake released for PC its the best survival horror for pc now go grab that one too for horror lovers.
Some FPS stand aside from others and this one surely does.
Got the limited edition of Darkness 2 today from NextWorld.
Played two hours and here are my thoughts so far:
I haven't played the first one but this one ic cool. Fast paced and griping storyline plus gruesome action and finish moves.
Graphics are somewhat comic style and great nonetheless, best yet the in game dialogues don't look fake and devoid of emotions like some other games.
Bullets and darkness power arms are hell of play experience. Shoot em, Slice em, Catch em and rip em.
Surely an addictive one. I am mostly a TPS game pl... (Expand)
An amazing game that puts you in a super fast ride.
The comic-like graphics is executed pretty well but has short single player campaign (3-4 hours max),but immersive story and action.Violent in the start and consistently violent in the end.
Though this game requires steam and frequent updates this is worth a buy.
Just been playing through this game on the weekend and I must say the cell shaded graphics(which is awesome and commendable), the demon arms, the darkness aura powers and my darkling's funny sense of humour does it all!
Hitman/Power up/Health/Demonic Executions, each have their own varied style of graphic mutality.
And yes the game has two alternative endings, and I do suggest that you game on in the 'Don' mode to extend ya playability factor. Even after the main campaign ends, we can unlock a new game+ mode to carry on the dark talents acquired and build on the skill tree and might I als... (Expand)
okay i didn't buy this game, rather i downloaded it, but hey, there's no difference. so you can buy if you want, but there's no point. can't comment on the other comics part tho. plus, this review requires atleast 200 characters, so sorry for your time.:)

By ROBIN CAUDELL
---- — WILLSBORO — Sounds of the Northway, also known as Kol Dereckh Hatzafon, will ring in its 2013 season at the Willsboro Coffeehouse Saturday evening.
Newcomer and vocalist Patricia Nelson joins veterans Cathie Davenport (flute and vocals) and Ann Ruzow Holland (guitar, piano and vocals).
"Patricia relocated here," Holland said. "We're still looking for a violinist or pianist. This is a new venture with a new third person. We're doing 20 songs from our repertoire."
Selections hail from nature themes, Jewish music, local history and three songs from the group's latest release, "Herstory: Heroes Turning the World Right Side Up," a historical anthology of 23 songs.
"We do a few sing-alongs and attempt to engage the audience in singing a few songs with us. It's a real combination of stuff. We finally learned one of the two Harriet Tubman songs I wanted to learn. We're using a traditional melody that is a little more gospel than anything else," Holland said.
There will be songs about food.
"We will be pulling a few from the two CDs ("Herstory" and "Water, Women and Song"). Some will be music we haven't previously recorded," she said.
Kol Dereckh Hatzafon has had a changing configuration since its inception in 1990.
"People cycle in and cycle out as their lives change, and that is fine with us," Holland said.
She has more time for her musical endeavors after completing her doctorate in environmental studies at Antioch University of England.
"I was the second of my cohorts to finish," Holland said. "I was on the fast track. Some of them are not done yet. Thirteen of us started in 2006. Half have graduated. It was wonderful, the best experience of my whole life. This was wonderful. The world of ideas I love, and you get to write."
Email Robin Caudell:
email@example.com YOU GO WHAT: Sounds of the Northway, also known as Kol Dereckh Hatzafon. WHEN: 7 p.m. Saturday. WHERE: Willsboro Congregational Church, Route 22, Willsboro. ADMISSION: $5 adults and $2 students.

To help states launch the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Medicaid expansion and efficiently enroll eligible individuals, CMS has offered states a series of facilitated enrollment options. These options include strategies, referred to as "fast track enrollment" in this issue brief, that allow states to enroll eligible individuals into coverage using data already available from their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance programs (SNAP) and/or their Medicaid or Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) programs for children. This issue brief provides an overview of the new "fast track" enrollment options, including how they have been implemented, their impacts, and key lessons learned. It is based on a series of interviews with state officials in Arkansas, Illinois, Oregon and West Virginia conducted by Manatt Health Solutions and the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured in October 2013.Issue Brief Read More

Getting into Gear for 2014: Shifting New Medicaid Eligibility and Enrollment Policies into Drive
On January 1, 2014, many key provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will start to go into effect, including the expansion of Medicaid to low-income adults and the launch of new Medicaid eligibility and enrollment processes, which are designed to move toward a coordinated enrollment system across health coverage programs, including Medicaid, CHIP, and the new Health Insurance Marketplaces. Over the past year, states have made steady and significant progress preparing for these changes, but readiness varies considerably as 2014 nears, and implementation work and ongoing process improvements will continue into the foreseeable future. To provide greater insight into the status of implementation, this report provides an overview of key state Medicaid eligibility and enrollment policies slated to go into effect based on data released by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).Report Read More

A Closer Look at the Impact of State Decisions Not to Expand Medicaid on Coverage for Uninsured Adults

However, in states that do not implement the Medicaid expansion, millions of low-income adults that could have gained Medicaid will remain ineligible for the program. This fact sheet discusses the impact of state decisions not to expand Medicaid on health coverage for uninsured adults in states that are not currently implementing the ACA Medicaid expansion.Fact Sheet Read More

Analyzing the Impact of State Medicaid Expansion Decisions
One of the major vehicles in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to increase health insurance coverage is an expansion of Medicaid to adults with incomes at or below 138% of the federal poverty level (FPL). While the expansion was intended to be implemented in all states, as a result of the Supreme Court decision on the ACA, it is now effectively a state choice. States are divided about implementing the Medicaid expansion. This brief highlights 5 key ways that state decisions will shape the outcome of the Medicaid expansion. Without the Medicaid expansion there will be large gaps in coverage; significant implications for health care for the uninsured; consequences for certain regions and for people of color; coverage and fiscal implications for states, and implications for uncompensated care and hospitals.Issue Brief Read More

Super Bowl XLVI threw a monkey wrench in our obsession with ordering and qualifying greatness. With a win -- and a Super Bowl MVP, for good measure -- Tom Brady would have had legitimate claim to a perch in the rarified air of Joe Montana. Instead, for the second time in five seasons, the clock ran out with the ball in Brady's hand, and confetti rained on Eli Manning.
The first half of Brady's career was marked by dominance over Eli's brother Peyton. While No. 18 piled up Dan Marino-like stats, the less flashy Brady racked up rings. Now, after his four best statistical seasons -- each of which ended with a postseason loss -- Brady's under a Manning's thumb, and it's the one not assured of a call from Canton.
For those keeping track at home -- we're sure Tom Brady's better than Peyton Manning, but we're not sure he's up there with Eli Manning, whom we knew wasn't as good as his brother as recently as ... a month and a half ago.
But losses came by three points in Glendale in 2008 and four points in Indy on Sunday, and suddenly Brady is Roger Federer to Eli's Rafael Nadal. In a world where quarterbacks get too much credit and blame, it's fair to ask how Brady could be the greatest of his generation when, effectively, one of his peers owns him. This, after playing no worse than Manning and marching down the field late in the fourth quarter to seemingly put the Patriots' lead out of reach, just as he did in Super Bowl XLII, only to see the Giants make a legendary catch on the way to victory.
It's enough to make you wonder the point of trying to keep all this straight. Brady's better than ever, but somehow looks worse. When he put up pedestrian numbers and had some of the greatest defenses ever behind him, he was a winner who simply found a way to get it done. Now Brady's scary good -- his touchdown-interception ratio the last two seasons was 75-16; for reference, demigod Aaron Rodgers' was 73-17 -- but he can't seem to win the big one. New England won two Super Bowls on last-second field goals, and now has lost twice with Brady securing a fourth-quarter lead for his team.
Maybe we gave Brady too much credit early. He won his first Super Bowl MVP with a pedestrian stat line, throwing for 145 yards and one touchdown in a game where his team was outgained by 160 yards. He was spectacular against the Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII, a great duel between him and the great Jake Delhomme. The following year, he was steady while Donovan McNabb threw up and threw the game away with three interceptions.
In those three Super Bowl wins, the Patriots forced seven turnovers. In their last two Super Bowl losses, the Patriots forced four fumbles, recovering none, and intercepted one pass. Those stats have everything to do with winning, and nothing to do with Tom Brady.
The Pats won their three Super Bowls by a combined nine points. They lost their last two by a combined seven points. Brady was nearly as close to being the Otto Graham of his generation as he was to having a Tarkentonian legacy. This is the confusion wrought from our need to deify quarterbacks.
We call football "the ultimate team game," then treat passers like starting pitchers, even though baseball is barely a team game at all and wins, the be-all and end-all for QBs, have been overrated on the diamond for a while. We almost arbitrarily determine who is better through some combination of individual skill and achievement and team success, rarely asking why a team is truly successful. For the second time, we've heaped praise on Eli Manning's ascent toward the elite while ignoring the cozy timing of becoming great just as his defense and running game have gotten on track. We did the same for Peyton when the 2006 Colts defense suddenly turned stout and won the Super Bowl while Manning threw for 247 yards, a touchdown and a pick in a triumph over ... Rex Grossman and the Bears.
The tricky part is figuring out what to say about Brady now. His stats have been anything but empty. The last two seasons, he put up 9,135 passing yards without a vertical threat. After winning rings with defenses that gave up 16 points per game on average, he carried the 31st-ranked defense this season and the 25th-ranked unit in 2010 to the No. 1 seed in the AFC. The only 1,000-yard rusher behind him since Corey Dillon in 2004, the last time New England won a Super Bowl, was BenJarvus Green-Ellis with 1,008 in 2010.
Brady's much better than he was in 2004. He hasn't lost his fastball, unless "fastball" is what the kids are calling great defenses these days. He's still better than Eli, no matter how enraptured observers are by what's current (Manning's fantastic streak of fourth quarter play in 2011) and head-to-head success (Eli: 3, Brady: 1) as a potent binary variable. Don't forget: the Patriots nearly won Sunday night with their best receiver, a tight end, so hobbled that he was barely an effective decoy.
That's not to say Brady was blameless: known for unflappability before his game caught up to his demeanor, he started his evening with a mental mistake that cost his team two points. It forced the Pats to go for a touchdown instead of a field goal in the closing seconds, and while Brady had ample time to lead his team to a win on the final drive, he did not.
The Super Bowl ended again with the ball in his hands, but not in victory formation. Tom Terrific, once more, was Mighty Casey of the gridiron. With a 3-2 record in Super Bowls, he looks a lot less like Montana and more like ... John Elway, I guess? Who may have been better than Montana?
But Montana might not be as good as Brady ... and Brady can't find a way to beat Eli Manning ... who's probably not as good as his brother ... whom Tom Brady once dominated.
This isn't even weird. Weird works better when this stuff makes sense.

Materials: Leather
Use: backpacking and extreme hiking
Break-in Period: 2 weeks
Price Paid: $160
I have a pair of the Italian made Sundowners and they are the best boot I have ever owned. I originally bought them in 1999 when I was in the 8th grade and used to hike every weekend. I wore them throughout the Ozark mountains and hiked about 200 miles that year. They took about 2 weeks to break in but after that they felt like tennis shoes and I never got a blister and my feet felt great at the end of every hike.
Sadly, when I got to high school sports took the place of my weekend and summer hiking adventures and the boots set on the shelves for several years. I took them out about 2 years ago and started wearing them again (my feet hadn't grown much since 8th grade- size 12). They have been through hell and back and submerged in water more times than I can count. I don't know why people are saying they aren't comfortable or don't hold up, but these have outlasted a pair of Danner's and Rocky's and they don't show much wear at all.
I would recommend these boots to anyone who is rough on equipment and spends a lot of time on the trail. These are a classic backpacking boot and unbelievably durable and comfortable.

The Linsly Cadets won their 17th OVAC baseball title with a 2-1 win over Magnolia in eight innings, in the AAA championship game.
Magnolia took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first , when Chandler Sapp scored from third on a wild pitch.
The Cadets would tie the game in the top of the sixth on an RBI single from MoMo Felt , scoring Colton Coss.
The game would go to extra innings tied 1-1.
In the top of the eighth , an error on a fly ball hit by Dominic Ellis allowed Coss to score the go-ahead run.
Magnolia would threaten in the bottom of the eighth , but Arien Seymour would make a great diving catch on a hard hit ball from Tanner Hanna with a runner on to end the game.
The Cadets are 21-4 while the Blue Eagles fall to 26-4.
This is the Cadets fourth title in five years and they trail only Steubenville (19) for the most all-time.

Here is a question I came across on an IQ test recently. I chose Answer C, but they claim Answer B is the correct answer. What do you think?My reasoning was that the paper might be balled up to reduce resistance, so it's impossible to tell which will encounter the most resistance...6.Which object will fall faster when dropped from the top of a building in normal weather conditions? An 8 x 11 piece of paper or a peanut? Both weigh the same amount.
A.The piece of paper
B.The peanut
C.It's impossible to know
The paper will encounter more resistance than will the peanut, and so it will fall more slowly. The correct answer is B.

AP Sports Writer
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Vikings coach Leslie Frazier says he plans to talk to the team on Monday amid mounting frustration after a fourth straight loss.
Several veterans, including Kevin Williams and Brian Robison, criticized the offensive and defensive coordinators after the Vikings lost 27-23 at Dallas on Sunday. It was the most overt sign yet that seven losses in eight games to start the season is starting to affect the team.
Frazier has taken pride in his ability to keep his teams focused and together in the toughest of times.
He says he will talk to the players about staying committed to the game plans and trusting the coaches to make the right calls.
The Vikings host the Washington Redskins on Thursday night.

Chilled, ripe red, juicy watermelon is the quintessential summer picnic fruit. And oh, by the way, it happens to be high in
disease-fighting lycopene.
Season: May through September.
How to Choose Watermelon
Although there are dozens of varieties, some with yellow or white flesh, all watermelons have a similar flavor. An average one weighs 15 to 35 pounds, but some ripen at cantaloupe size. Seedless varieties invariably do contain seeds, but they are small, white, and edible. Look for oblong or well-rounded melons that sound hollow when slapped. The rind should be dull and just barely give to firm pressure. Avoid any with flat or soft spots or punctures in the rind.
How to Store Watermelon
Keep whole melons at a cool room temperature away from sunlight for up to a week; refrigerate if possible. Once cut, wrap slices tightly or store chunks in an airtight container and refrigerate, consuming within 2 days.
How to Use Watermelon
Watermelon is great alone or cubed in salads, or try sprinkling wedges with salt and lemon juice.

While I love the idea of "dump cakes," I dislike the artificial ingredients in store bought cake mix. When I found organic cake mix at my local Trader Joe's, I thought I'd give it another go, using my favorite pumpkin pie recipe as its base, which calls for heavy cream instead of evaporated milk. Because it takes just moments to put together, this should not only be a part of your holiday dessert buffet, but would also be suitable for a sweet treat any night of the week. It was so delicious kids practically licked the casserole dish clean.
Yields 6-8 servings
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Scoop out pumpkin puree into a large bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
Whisk in cream and sugars. Add salt and spices, stirring to combine. Pour into a 9 x 9 inch, greased baking dish. Sprinkle vanilla cake mix over the top of the pumpkin mixture. Carefully drizzle butter all over the top of the cake mix.
Bake for one hour or until filling is set (will still jiggle slightly) and top is golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Fill in the Gap
Even for those with injuries and chronic pain, Feldenkrais's gentle method allows the body to remain in an easeful, and therefore receptive, state�so the information you get through a teacher's touch or voice isn't drowned out by discomfort and can be integrated on a neurological level.
As physical therapist and Feldenkrais teacher Jane Diehl of Redondo Beach, California, explains, "We want the body to understand that it's possible to move and be comfortable. Once you understand that, you have more options for movement creating flexibility."
So when we're stuck in our asana practice, Feldenkrais can offer a way to move ahead. "The purpose of Feldenkrais work is to allow you to do whatever you do better," says Diehl. As a complement to your yoga practice, Feldenkrais can help your body to understand the range of actions possible in an asana, so you can move more deeply into poses you find difficult.
Body-Mind Centering
For my final somatics exploration, I made an appointment with Diane Elliot, a Body-Mind Centering teacher with an eclectic yoga background, including the Iyengar and Kripalu styles. "What would it be like," she asked, "if your sense of yourself included an awareness that went right down to the cellular level, so that you could imagine the movement between the cells? Wouldn't that provide a much deeper and subtler way of entering into movement or posture?"
As Elliot explained, a basic premise of Body-Mind Centering (BMC) is that we can develop awareness, receive information, and learn to move from each of the body's systems�from individual cells and their components up to the larger, more obvious systems like the skeletal, glandular, circulatory, and nervous systems.
"Somebody might be very tuned into their muscles or their skeletal structure," says Elliot, "but they might only ever enter movement from those systems, because that's what they're familiar with. Those are the systems that tend to get worn out. So I'll look for the systems that aren't being used. We use the term 'the shadow' for that which is less expressed."
BMC also explores the movement patterns that develop from the time we're in utero through fetal development, birth, and the early years of life. The founder of BMC, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, sees all of these movements as echoes of nature and of other animals that form the evolutionary chain. For example, she compares the fluid patterns within our body�like the ebb and flow of craniosacral fluid�with the fluid patterns in nature, such as ocean currents.
Understanding such subtle complexities takes more than one lesson, Elliot cautions. Rather than trying to explain them intellectually, Elliot starts with the concrete. She asks me how I feel about my yoga practice. What do I enjoy? What do I find difficult? Then she asks me to lie down on the floor and begins touching me lightly. Once she touches a student, she explains, she can get a sense of which systems and movement patterns operate strongly, which may be hidden, and which may be in distress.
