Arizona sheriff's authorities say additional arrests have been made in the attacks of three people at the Outlaw Saloon in Tucson.
The Pima County Sheriff's Office said they have identified all 10 outlaws believed to be involved in the Feb. 17 brawl that happened just after 2:30 a.m. in the parking lot of the bar at 1302 W. Roger Rd.
All but one suspect has been arrested. The most recent arrest was 27-year-old Brittany Rene Walker Trostle, who was booked into the Pima County Adult Center on Thursday.
Pima County sheriff's deputies said a 45-year-old woman told them she, her 21-year-old son and a 40-year-old friend were on a walkway leading to the parking lot when a group emerged from the bar and began making antagonistic remarks to her son.
The taunting continued and suddenly the behavior escalated into a physical assault, sheriff's investigators said.
The 21-year-old was beaten and suffered injuries that required medical attention at the hospital.
The mother attempted to stop the beating when the attackers turned on her, knocked her to the ground and kicked her in the face, deputies said.
The woman's friend was also beaten and kicked. The victims said they did not know any of their attackers, who included men and women.
Detectives obtained surveillance video and, through tips, were able to identify the suspects. Each was booked into jail on three counts of aggravated assault.
The lone suspect on the loose is Fredrick A. Nelson, 33, who is also known by the nickname "Lurch" and is from the Phoenix area. Detectives are working to get an arrest warrant for Nelson.
People with additional information on the suspects or the case are urged to call 911 or 88-CRIME.

Independent Labour are the first political party to announce candidates for the elections, two of whom are currently members.

- Beltre likely not returning until September
- Washington: No rules regarding Feliz
- Minors notes: Olt on rehab assignment
- Worth noting
ANAHEIM -- Second baseman Ian Kinsler's 42-game errorless streak came to an end on Sunday when he misplayed a routine ground ball. Manager Ron Washington said that's a play Kinsler makes "one thousand times out of a thousand."The error doesn't change his assessment of Kinsler's defense this year. "Outstanding," Washington said. "One of the best in the league." Washington ranks Kinsler, Robinson Cano of the Yankees and Dustin Pedroia of the Red Sox as the three best defensive second basemen in the league. He said all three are about equal as far as range and hands. What separates the three of them, according to Washington, is Kinsler's ability to turn the double play. "I think Kinsler turns the best double play of anybody in baseball," said Washington, whose team leads the league in twin killings. Of the eight second basemen in the league with enough games to qualify, Kinsler is last in fielding percentage. He is at .984 and Pedroia leads at .992. But, according to STATS Inc., Kinsler has the highest zone rating (a comprehensive defensive sabermetric) at his position in the American League. According to FanGraphs.com, another website that attempts to rank defensive players through a combination of factors, Kinsler ranks second behind Pedroia in "ultimate zone rating." Cano is the reigning Gold Glove winner at second base. Placido Polanco, now with the Phillies, won it with the Tigers in 2009 and Pedroia did so in '08. Kinsler has never won it, but Washington believes he deserves consideration this year. "I saw Michael Young win a Gold Glove [at shortstop in 2008] and it's something I definitely want to do," Kinsler said. "It would mean a lot to me. It's recognition as one of the best defensive players of the year. That would mean a lot to me. I feel I'm playing good defense. I just need to stay focused."
Beltre likely not returning until September
ANAHEIM -- Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre, who has been on the disabled list since July 23 with a strained left hamstring, did some stretching and light running in the outfield before Monday's game.But that was all, and it still appears that he will not be ready until after the rosters expand on Sept. 1, especially since the Rangers are adamant that he does not rush back. He was one day away from being activated off the disabled list when he re-injured his hamstring eight days ago in Arlington. "If that happens again, we'll see him in Spring Training," Washington said. "This time it will be step by step by step and go through the process. The first time he might have pushed himself a little too much. I think he understands now what a dormant hamstring is. "I don't see him getting back before August is over. We just want to make sure he's right. It could sooner, but if he didn't have that setback, he'd be in the lineup right now." The Rangers, after their three-game sweep of the Athletics, are 12-9 since Beltre went down with his injury.
Washington: No rules regarding Feliz
ANAHEIM -- Rangers closer Neftali Feliz threw 20 pitches on both Saturday and Sunday. That doesn't mean he's unavailable for Monday's game against the Angels.Manager Ron Washington said there will be no set rules on how to use Feliz. He said that will be determined daily. All Rangers relievers usually play catch during batting practice and how they feel at that point goes a long way in determining if they are available for the game. "If the game needs to be shut down and he says he's ready, I'll use him," Washington said. "I'm not thinking about anything else. If the game is on the line and he says he's available, he's our closer. Whatever happens, we have to live with it." The last time Feliz pitched three straight games, the third appearance didn't go well. He allowed three runs to the Indians on Aug. 6, and the Rangers lost, 7-5. It was Feliz's sixth blown save. Since then, he has pitched in four games and not allowed a run or a hit. He has walked two while striking out five. Feliz said the big thing is he has been able to use his slider more effectively, and he struck out Hideki Matsui with it while collecting his 23rd save on Sunday in Oakland. "My breaking ball pitches are working well right now," Feliz said. "I feel much more comfortable with them."
Minors notes: Olt on rehab assignment
ANAHEIM -- Class A third baseman Mike Olt, who has missed 2 1/2 months with a broken left collarbone, has been sent to the Arizona Rookie League on medical rehabilitation assignment. Olt, the 49th overall pick in last year's Draft out of Connecticut, was hitting .286 with 10 home runs and 34 RBIs at Myrtle Beach before he was injured. Pitcher Omar Beltre, who has missed most of the season because of a back injury, has almost stopped throwing completely and is concentrating mainly on core strengthening. He hasn't pitched in a game since July 3 and is working out in Surprise, Ariz. The Rangers have promoted first baseman Jose Ruiz from Double-A Frisco to Triple-A Round Rock. The former Cuban national was hitting .275 with 12 home runs and 54 RBIs in 106 games at Frisco. The Rangers have put pitcher Barret Loux on the disabled list at Myrtle Beach with arm fatigue. Matt Kata was placed on the DL at Round Rock. First baseman Clark Murphy has been promoted from the Arizona Rookie League to Class A Hickory.
Worth noting
The Draft Deadline passed on Monday and the Rangers were not able to sign any more picks. They had hoped to sign catcher Max Pentecost, a high schooler out of Georgia who was taken in the seventh round, but could not reach an agreement.
David Murphy was back in the Rangers' lineup on Monday for the second straight game. Murphy had the game-winning hit on Sunday, but manager Ron Washington said he had already planned to give Endy Chavez two days off. The Rangers have signed 48th-round pick C.J. Edwards, a right-handed pitcher from Mid-Carolina (S.C.) High. The Rangers swept the Athletics last weekend without hitting a home run. They hadn't swept a three-game series without hitting a home run since July 18-20, 1999, against the Giants. The Rangers also scored at least seven runs in three straight games without hitting a home run. They hadn't done that since '88. Craig Gentry is 13-for-13 on stolen-base attempts, matching Chase Utley for most swipes this season without being caught.

London-based rental specialist Sound Hire, which took delivery of one of the very first DiGiCo D5 Live digital mixing systems in September, has already committed further to the revolutionary platform by ordering an upgrade. Their second stage-end DigiRack (which contains the system's inputs and A/D converters) expands their console's capacity from 56 to 96 inputs, allowing it to replace two analogue consoles on many shows.
Says Sound Hire founder Richard Liénard: "It's obvious that the future of sound has to be digital. For a long time it's the thing that everyone's thought would be wonderful but was scared about what would happen if it wasn't totally stable. Then suddenly there was the answer at PLASA - the D5 Live - and we ordered it virtually the next day. The desk gives you an amazing amount of positive feedback on the input side: you can see every channel that you want. With three sections and three screens you can have two engineers working on it at once - everything's immediately accessible.
"Now, with the extra DigiRack, we can handle up to 96 input channels at once. This makes total sense of the digital format because it's so easy to manipulate that number of channels on the D5 Live, and in many instances it will effectively replace two massive analogue desks – just by buying the extra rack. When you add in all the other benefits of total recall and so on, it's a superbly versatile solution."
Sound Hire's clients include classical superstars The Three Tenors, Pavarotti, José Carreras, Placido Domingo and Dame Kiri te Kanawa, alongside major concerts such as Showtime At the Stadium at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff, Jean-Michel Jarre and many more.

New Zealand, expected to be one of the tournament doormats, has proven themselves with draws against Slovakia and Italy, and while most purported the Italy result as some once-in-a-lifetime miracle, that covers belies the fact that New Zealand has shown itself a capable and dangerous team.
Expect Gerardo Martino to have taken notice. The Paraguay coach is having a great tournament, and where he has to this point pushed all the right buttons in getting Paraguay to the top of Group F, it is unlikely that Martino will let his team's chances to top the group fade away by making the same mistakes as television punditry.
Paraguay, Going Forward: Gerardo Martino switched from a 4-4-2 to a 4-3-3 for the Slovakia match, a move that worked wonders as the pressure exerted on the Slovakia back line exposed an indecisive defense. Now going against New Zealand's 3-4-3, it's unclear whether Martino will stay with the three man attack or switch back to a four man midfield.
Tactical advantages aside, there are personnel reasons why Martino could stay with the formation. Paraguay has a ridiculous amount of striking talent. The three players likely to start against New Zealand - Lucas Barrios, Nelson Valdez and Roque Santa Cruz - keep the leading scorer in Portugal, Oscar Cardozo, off the pitch. The 4-3-3 allows Martino to get more of his best players on the pitch at the same time.
The drawback to staying with the 4-3-3: Paraguay may be outnumbered and constricted before they get into the final third. Against an hard-working New Zealand team who have done a good job of maintaining their formation's shape, having a three man midfield could make things more difficult for Paraguay than need be.
New Zealand, Going Forward: The All Whites will rely exclusively on counter attacks and set pieces. Being compacted so deep (and in such numbers) in their third while defending, they don't have the set-up or approach to build-up goals.
That is not to say that the Kiwis are not dangerous. As both Slovakia and Italy learned, New Zealand is capable of getting a goal on the end of a cross, and while Paraguay has shown their own proficiency in executing a set-piece, Justo Villar gifted Italy their goal when he misread a corner kick. A similar error could see New Zealand into the knockout stage.
Above all, New Zealand is going to have to be opportunistic. They know they don't have the same technical skill as their opponents, but as their strong defending and their relentless work has shown, the Kiwis have a way of mitigating their disadvantages.
How The Match Turns: Not being familiar with the All Whites, it's natural for Paraguay to underestimate them - from naivete more than patronization. At some point in this match, Paraguay will wake-up and start treating New Zealand with the respect they deserve. The All Whites will wish they hadn't, as Paraguay will show themselves the slightly better team.

Greensburg Daily News
Letts —
The Letts Volunteer Fire Department received a $400,000 grant from Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs (IOCRA), and a $15,000 grant from Greensburg's Community Foundation.
According to Byron Baltus, Assistant Fire Chief, the money is planned to go toward demolishing and rebuilding the existing building. Parts of the current building date to 1895 and have been in need of replacement. The northern part of the building, the truck bay, will be left intact. The truck bay is one of the newest parts of the building.
The Decatur County Commissioner's office sponsored Letts in the application for the grant, "We're very appreciative of the Commissioners allowing us to participate in the is program," Baltus said.
Letts has been working on acquiring the grant for the past year. Receiving a grant from the Community Foundation demonstrated Letts' seriousness in repairing the old building, and allowed Letts to "score enough points" with IOCRA to receive the $400,000 grant, according to Baltus. Letts had to apply to the Community Foundation, and received the $15,000 from the Community Foundation's yearly public safety grants.
"We wanna pat IOCRA on the back real hard," said Baltus, as his expressed his gratitude for being able to repair Letts' aging building.

Korea Brings the Largest-ever Delegation of Tea Companies to the United States for World Tea Expo, June 1 - 3
Korea Hosts a VIP Tea-tasting Event, Focuses on Increasing Global Tea Exports
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (May 28, 2012) - aT (Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corp.), a Korean government agency that supports and promotes food companies and farmers, is bringing the largest-ever delegation of tea producers and exporters to the United States for 2012 World Tea Expo, June 1 - 3 in Las Vegas, Nev. This group of esteemed Korean tea businesses is set to meet with the 4,000+ Expo attendees, to increase overseas market development and demand for Korean high quality teas. Overall, Korea records a 1,000-year-old tea culture tradition, and its teas are currently attracting more global attention today, especially in the North American, European and Asian marketplaces, according to experts at World Tea Expo --- the largest, global B2B event for the tea industry.
George Jage, director of World Tea Media, a division of F+W Media, organizers of World Tea Expo, says Korea's tea industry is on the rise. "Korea's national anthem is 'Aegukga,' and it means 'love the country.' Right now, World Tea Expo loves the quality teas from Korea. We see a lot of potential and strengths with the Korean tea industry. Its teas are definitely intensifying in popularity, further increasing in quality and gaining in global shipments. In addition, the Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corp. is not only placing Korea in a solid position in domestic and overseas marketplaces, but it's also working hard to increase the incomes of its farming households, to balance the positive development of its national economy. Indeed, we're pleased to shine the spotlight on Korean fine teas, and we welcome this high-profile delegation to the Expo."
For this rare North American showing at 2012 World Tea Expo, some of the foremost Korean tea producers and exporters are planning to highlight the various types of Korean tea, including green tea (or nok cha --- cha means tea). Green tea is the most common type of tea in Korea, and it's produced in the Boseong, Solaksan and Hadong regions. Boseong, the largest tea-growing area in Korea, is known as the birthplace of the Korean tea industry; it accounts for around 40 percent of domestic tea production in the nation, according to the Korea Tourism Organization. Ujeon is considered the highest quality amongst the types of Korean green tea, and it's decidedly fragrant. Other types of Korean tea are: black, citron, ginseng, omija and bamboo leaf, among others.
In addition to exhibiting on the show floor at World Tea Expo, Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corp. delegates are set to present a special VIP tea-tasting for buyers, key opinion leaders, executives from the tea community and press. The gathering takes place Saturday, June 2 from 3 - 4 p.m. in room N254 of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The presentation and sampling includes a selection of Korea's preeminent teas from companies including: Sung-Eup Green Tea Village; Korea Ginseng Corp.; Bak Rok Tea Land; TeaOlle; Bambusland; and Bokumjari.
Jane Pettigrew, a tea expert, World Tea Expo speaker and well-known author, says Korea is raising people's awareness of Korean tea, to increase production, consumption and exports. "The country's program of activities has included the construction of new factories, educational activities in schools and universities, tea festivals and competitions in tourist destinations, research into the health benefits of tea, and the development of food and cosmetic products that incorporate tea as one of the ingredients," she reports. In addition, she notes that various organizations are making efforts to popularize Korean tea and tea culture through export, education and events like World Tea Expo.
Of note: At 2012 World Tea Expo, Korea is also hosting a formal Scholar's Tea Ceremony on Saturday, June 2, from 11:30 a.m. - 12 p.m. in the special events Pavilion of the Expo's exhibit hall. The ceremony shows how tea is both easily accessible and casually enjoyable. The ceremony also includes an appropriate amount of formality, allowing everyone to fully enjoy the taste and essence these graceful leaves offer. The Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation is preparing to

(49ers director of player personnel) Tom Gamble got promoted. (Falcons director of college scouting) David Caldwell was promoted. Dom (Anile) was at a retirement age already. … If they get the top pick, this will be a one- or two-year hiccup, and (Indy) will be back to an elite level."
• "Sacks are the greatest misnomer in the NFL. There are so many good inside pass rushers that push everything out and then the end gets the sack. It's why you see a defensive tackle never lead the league in sacks. Look at DeMarcus Ware vs. Philadelphia. He racked up four sacks, but how did he get them? Some people would go and say he beat up on (OLT) Jason Peters. Put on the tape. Peters is perfect, keeping him frontal and (Michael) Vick scrambles and trips at his ankle. Ware is the first to touch him — sack. You got to be kidding me! There were two of those and another where he beat a tight end on the other side. Sacks are so overrated."

Bass Guitar, Guitar, Music Performance, Music Theory, Piano, Upright Bass
Ian's vast and diverse experience on the Northeast music scene has given him the background that rivals the best of many professional musicians working today. From band tours of the US, Canada, and Hong Kong and a handful of recordings under various acts, Ian remains busy in his home city of Philadelphia. Ian has performed with such acts as Jazz great Grover Washington Jr. to the Bucks County Symphony Orchestra.
Teaching Experience
Ian has taught private lessons in Bass both electric and acoustic, piano, and guitar for the last ten years in which he has also lent his talents to the esteemed Paul Green School of Rock and Day Jams Summer Rock School. He has also been involved with a number of after-school programs in the Philadelphia area where he taught private music lessons, music theory, and rock ensemble.
Musical Education
Ian's musical training began with piano at 7, saxophone at 9, self-taught guitar at 11, and finally electric and acoustic bass in high school. He was awarded scholarships to Philadelphia's Settlement Music School and the Berklee College of Music. Finally settling in NYC, Ian completed his B.F.A. in Jazz and Contemporary Music at the New School School for Social Research in 2000. Ian has recently completed his PA Teacher Certification K-12 from Temple University 2011.
Why study music with Ian?
Quite simply Ian is a fun, creative, open-minded, and experienced teacher/musician who teaches a wide genre of music styles. He simply loves all music. Jazz, Classical, Funk/R&B, Rock, Metal, and Country are all within the expertise of Ian's vocabulary. Ian teaches with the same intensity and passion that he performs with. Ian truly cares about teaching each and every student the best way he knows.
*** Lesson Details ***
Ian's lessons are a combination of goals set by himself and the student. Whether you aspire to be the next rock god in 3 months or to just play casually with your friends at the next barbecue, Ian is there to understand your musical goals. Every student is different therefore Ian accommodates his style and methods to each the individual. Old-school rigidity are not what Ian is about. Rather, Ian dips from both the traditions of the past and new techniques of today.
Topics Covered
Technique, Song Performance, Harmony, Rhythm, and Music Theory are all important components covered in the lesson plan. Sight reading standard music notation is encouraged but not necessary. Rhythm notation is a mandatory skill every musician must know and is taught from the beginning. Song choices can be tailored to the students tastes however Ian seems fit. Ian has no problem teaching anything from the Jonas Brothers to Jimi Hendrix.
Improvisation, Groove, and Ear Training are areas of special interest and study which can also be taught to enhance a students studies.
Students skills and goals are assessed every few months to ensure student and teacher are on a clear and steady path. Everything from major and minor scales to song retention is logged down to provide a means of assessment.
As both a teacher and playing musician, Ian honestly believes that it
takes a combination of 20% talent and 80% sweat/hard work to be a successful and
competent musician. Therefore a set practice time length is agreed upon
between Ian and the student to which the student must stick to a practice schedule as
best as he or she can. Learning not just "what to practice" but "how to practice" is an important skill that is acquired through patience, hard work, and repetition. Ian can show you the skills it takes to master the "Art Of Practice".
Lesson Length
Lesson times of 30 minutes and 45 minutes are recommended for beginning students.
60 minutes for intermediate to more advanced students

I have been teaching music for 16 years. I grew up on the 2nd floor of my father's music store in Central PA and have been around music my whole life. I earned a bachelor's degree in Music Performance from the University of the Arts where I studied jazz guitar with Pat Martino, Jimmy Bruno, Steve Giordano, and Tom Giacabetti. I was one of the original teachers during the formative years at the Paul Green School of Rock Music where I later went on to be the Music Director of the Philadelphia and Downingtown Schools. During that time, I helped many students prepare and get accepted to music schools, ran and developed music summer camps, and organized concerts where the students performed the music of Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, and many more of rock's finest band at every major venue in Philadelphia.
I have been active in the local music scene recording and playing sold-out shows at the Khyber, TLA, Trocadero, Johnny Brenda's and World Caf� Live with such acts as 722, Bebek, Franzschubert, Sensi Star, Clean Equations, The Black Lodge Ensemble, Dani Mari, Ashley Phillips, and The Smash Brothers. I have played jazz at the Kimmel Center, musical theater at the Walnut Street and Prince Music Theaters, reggae bass at the Jersey Shore, and rocked out at CBGB's. I have toured throughout the east coast and as far as Shanghai, China. I bring all this range of experience to each lesson.
*** Lesson Details ***
I am a very easy going and patient teacher. My objective is for a guitar or bass lesson to be both educational and fun. I do not adhere to a strict curriculum because I have found over the years that everyone learns differently. I cater my lessons to the individual goals and tastes of my students.
Whether it is a 7 year old successfully playing a D chord or teenager connecting the dots of music theory, the most satisfying experiences for me is when a student has that "ah hah" moment. I feel it is my job not only to channel creativity but also to help students develop discipline. A typical lesson will consist of learning new skills such as working on rhythm and developing a good ear but most importantly, we will do a large amount of playing.
My teaching studio is furnished with two practice amps, a small PA, and a music stand. I have several guitars both acoustic and electric, plus a bass, keyboards, and several percussion instruments around the house to play with. I really enjoy working with students to develop their own music and am equipped to record demos. I also have an extensive songbook and guitar tab library as a resource to learn songs from. I do have two cats, just to let you know, and my house very easy to get to via public transportation.

A professional musician and music instructor for over 30 years, Mike has established himself as not only a world class player but also an excellent teacher of all ages and skill levels. He teaches for several area conservatories and hosts master classes on composition, performance, guitar and bass improvisation. Mike now offers lessons in his professional home studio.
*** Lesson Details ***
Mike's approach is to use the student's own musical tastes to develop an appreciation for the instrument. If you like rock, you learn by playing rock. If you like jazz, you learn by playing jazz. Mike's approach makes it painless to learn to read, train your ear and develop monster chops quickly.

Bass Guitar, Classical Guitar, Guitar, Mandolin, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Songwriting
I am 35 years old, and have been a musician for over 25 years. I began, like many, playing in my middle school band. I attended a Performing Arts School throughout my high school years, where I studied Classical and Jazz Guitar, Music Theory, Ear Training, and many other facets of music. I also studied privately with various guitar instructors, most notable Kyle Hildenbrand, a Berklee grad and film scorer for Universal Studios. In college I also took education and psychology classes which have proven very helpful in my approach to teaching.
I have performed in many ensembles and bands, playing both cover songs and writing original music. Blues, country, hard-rock, and even a jazz quartet. Currently I write for and perform in a folk - rock trio.
Playing in so many different circumstances, has been very beneficial working as a teacher. My students are all very different, not only in the way that they learn but also in the style of music they wish to play. I take pride in being able to adapt to each student, teaching them with the most appropriate method.
*** Lesson Details ***
In my lessons, I like to teach the fundamentals of music through the style that the student is most interested in. We learn to read standard notation as well as tablature, for guitarists. My curriculum varies from student to student, choosing the most appropriate for the individual. I also emphasize the importance of creativity and self-expression, teaching students how to write and improvise.
After 6 months, a student can expect to be able to read music and tablature, know a wide variety of chords and scales, have the ability to improvise solos, and be able to play songs they enjoy to listen to.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Home studio with Drums, weighted digital piano, recording equipment, amps, etc.

Obama, Cheney, Romney, and Rove
by holden caulfield, Fri Nov 23, 2007 at 12:24:27 PM EST
Since Im too busy to write today, I offer again the clear headed thinking of the wise women at
and to the angry boys at this website....youre right - these gals live in their Mom's basement too!
Someday, there will heroic songs written about these women and statues put up in public squares for their brave and important work in telling the real truth, against the wishes and slanders of the haters and the media horde, and helping in their own devastating and funny way, to save our nation from disaster..
Obama, Cheney, Romney, and Rove
Maybe we misjudged the quality of Tim Russert's questions.
At the time of the Halloween debate, we appropriately criticized Russert for leading the assault on Hillary, with wedge issue questions, while asking Obama little of substance.
Russert questioned Obama as to his choice of Halloween costume. We mocked Russert's question. Now as we recall that Obama answered he would wear a Mitt Romney mask, perhaps we were wrong. It turns out Obama decided to adopt Romney not just as a mask but as a role model too.
Recently the Obama campaign was in full drama mode over a Ripublican Bob Novak column. Mitt Romney too was in full drama mode. There were similarities to both dramas:
Former Bay State Gov. Mitt Romney's presidential campaign furiously denied rumors yesterday that his own supporters were involved in calls placed to voters in Iowa and New Hampshire that spread anti-Romney smears under the guise of conducting a poll.
Political strategists and bloggers slung accusations at Romney's camp yesterday after a scathing article appeared in the National Review titled "Did Mitt Romney Push Poll Himself?" which identified several Romney supporters at Western Wats, a Utah-based firm believed to have made the calls. The practice of using phony polls to plant a negative message is commonly known as push-polling. [snip]
Among the questions asked during the 20-minute calls placed last week were whether the person polled knew Romney received Vietnam-era military deferments while serving in the Mormon missionary in France, that none of his sons served in the military and that the Mormon religion didn't accept blacks as bishops until the 1970s. [snip]
The National Review article cited sources who speculated Romney's camp put the hit out on itself "because his campaign wanted polling data regarding the negative perception of his Mormon faith for internal use." But others speculated a motivation to pre-empt attacks on Romney's faith.
As the Romney push polling story developed, it turned out the few people who received the alleged phone calls were Romney employees.
Deepening the mystery surrounding the anti-Mormon polling calls, the Romney campaign is confirming that it referred reporters to two recipients of the calls without disclosing that the two were also on the Romney campaign payroll, TPM Election Central has learned.
In response to questions from TPM Election Central, Romney spokesman Kevin Madden confirmed that the campaign had failed to disclose this info to reporters. Madden suggested that the campaign had identified them as "supporters," which is a far cry from being directly paid by the campaign, as the two call recipients were.
The revelation could add grist to the theory -- now spreading on conservative blogs and even getting coverage by news organizations -- that the Romney campaign itself is behind the calls. Some have speculated that the calls -- which attack Romney and refer to his Mormon faith while saying positive things about McCain -- are an effort by the campaign to test negative messages about itself while getting McCain blamed for the calls.
The new revelation could give more ammo to those who question whether the firm making the calls -- which is already reported to have on staff several people who have donated to the Romney campaign -- knowingly called Romney supporters because they could be counted on to tell the press about the calls and to suggest to reporters that Romney rival John McCain was behind them.
It also raises the question of whether the Romney campaign referred reporters to the callers -- without disclosing their relationship with the campaign -- for the same purpose.
The Obama drama moment:
Over the weekend, Robert Novak printed what used to be called a "blind item" but now is called "daily journalism."
Novak wrote: "Agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton are spreading the word in Democratic circles that she has scandalous information about her principal opponent for the party's presidential nomination, Sen. Barack Obama, but has decided not to use it. The nature of the alleged scandal was not disclosed."
The item probably would have died a quiet death -- there have been a number of presidential candidate scandal rumors percolating on the Web that have not gotten much attention -- when Obama assured that it would reach critical mass.
Obama issued a vigorous and lengthy statement saying the Novak item was "devoid of facts" and was "Swift Boat politics."
But the guilty party, Obama made clear, was not Novak; it was Clinton.
"If the purpose of this shameless item was to daunt or discourage me or supporters of our campaign from challenging and changing the politics of Washington, it will fail," Obama said in language that neatly fit into his campaign theme. "In fact, it will only serve to steel our resolve."
And he issued a challenge: "In the interest of our party, and her own reputation, Sen. Clinton should make either public any and all information referred to in the item, or concede the truth: that there is none."
Obama also whacked Clinton for hypocrisy, because she had stated during last Thursday's debate in Las Vegas that she did not like the politics of "throwing mud" but was now engaging in it herself.
Politico listed several reasons for the Obama reaction, two of which we find interesting: "it served as inoculation so that if more stories surface, Obama can claim they are just more Clinton-inspired dirty tricks" and "it shifted press attention away from Obama's poor debate performance in Las Vegas and onto Hillary's allegedly poor behavior in leaking scurrilous information."
Obama does not want to answer questions about Rezko or about his previous non-public life. Any question about Obama's ethics and associations and finances is blasted as being "old", "answered", or "swiftboating". But all the questions about Rezko are recent, open and relevant.
In the recent series of campaign statements Obama was imitating Romney but in bed with Karl Rove.
If Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that Hillary Clinton's campaign told him that they had some dirt on Obama, would Obama's staff react as they did to the Robert Novak column of November 17? And yes, I am putting Novak in the same category as the crazy Iranian leader. Novak has damaged U.S. national security as much as Ahmadinejad with his exposure of Valerie Plame and the subsequent destruction of her clandestine intelligence network.
Why has Senator Barack Obama kept the Novak story alive through repeated statements for days? Is he just naïve or is he misinformed? Is he really so unfamiliar with the journalistic incest of Washington and Novak's status as a Republican hit man? Why would Obama focus his campaign on unfounded "smears" circulated by Novak? Why would Obama, the candidate of "hope," pump up the claims of Novak, "the prince of darkness"?
Larry Johnson, author of Why is Obama in Bed with Karl Rove? needs to read this site more often. For Obama smears is normal operating procedure:
The Republican smear masters had already tipped their hand for dealing with Hillary Clinton. Look at Karl Rove's debut column in Newsweek, where he lays out the strategy that Obama appears to be parroting:
"And so the question to John McCain from a woman at a town hall in South Carolina last Monday was tasteless, but key: `How do we beat the [rhymes with witch]?' Right now, Republicans are focusing much of their fire on Senator Clinton. Criticizing her unites the party, stirs up the unsettled feelings many swing voters have toward her and allows each candidate to say why he is best able to beat her."
With Rove's instructions to Republicans in mind, take a new look at Obama's reaction to Novak. Is Obama wearing a wrist bracelet that says, "what would Karl Rove do"?
Robert Novak is a seasoned conservative columnist with a long history of publishing falsehoods, distortions and gossip. And he has been in bed with Karl Rove in running "information ops" against democrats. For decades he has been renowned for inflating shreds of tidbits of rumors into major stories to support various Republican efforts. In 1992, Karl Rove, one of Novak's regular sources, was fired from the campaign of President George H.W. Bush for leaking derogatory information to Novak about Bush's campaign manager and friend, Robert Mosbacher. In 2003, Rove again served as a source to Novak, leaking the identity of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame Wilson. Even though the CIA warned Novak not to disclose her CIA identity in the interests of national security, he did so, insuring that Rove got a copy of the column before it was published. In 2004, Novak promoted the smear campaign of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth against Senator John Kerry's heroic Vietnam War record. When it was revealed that Novak's son was the marketing director for the right-wing publisher of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth tract defaming Kerry, Novak expressed disdain about the conflict-of-interest: "I don't think it's relevant."
By his own admission Novak's latest hyped controversy has no basis in fact. On November 17, he wrote, "Agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton are spreading the word in Democratic circles that she has scandalous information about her principal opponent for the party's presidential nomination, Sen. Barack Obama, but has decided not to use it." His sourcing consisted of "word of mouth" and unnamed "experienced Democratic operatives." Two days later, on Fox News, where Novak is a commentator, he confessed that he had heard a rumor from someone who had heard a rumor from someone. In short, he had no facts, perhaps explaining why Novak has been dubbed "No Facts" for years.
Clinton communications director Howard Wolfson's categorical statement would seem to have put an end to this pseudo-event: "The Clinton campaign has nothing to do with this item." But it did not end. Instead, it is being kept artificially alive.
As soon as Novak published his rumor, Obama elevated and dignified it as though it had credibility. "But in the interest of our party, and her own reputation, Senator Clinton should either make public any and all information referred to in the item, or concede the truth: that there is none," he declared. Obama turned the alleged smear upside down. Rather than acknowledge that the predictable right-wing smear artist Novak was responsible for the innuendo, Obama accused Senator Clinton of being ultimately to blame. With this extraordinary statement, Obama lashed himself to Novak's credibility as a reliable source on a story that transparently lacked any true source.
Larry, Larry, Larry -- we deal with Obama's smears every day - Obama knows exactly what he is doing.
Even when the Clinton campaign forthrightly again denied the item was false and that no one involved in the campaign had anything to do with it, Obama's campaign refused to let the matter die. Obama campaign manager David Plouffe once again accused Senator Clinton and her campaign of doing what Novak claimed: "Are `agents' of their campaign spreading these rumors? And do they have `scandalous' information that they are not releasing?"
Once again, the Clinton campaign openly stated it had nothing to do with the story at all. Then, Plouffe made another statement that suggested Obama had somehow wrung a confession out of the Clinton campaign and still implied that it was behind Novak's lie: "The Clinton campaign has admitted that they do not possess the `scandalous information' in question and we take them at their word. But what we don't accept is their assertion that this is somehow falling for Republican tricks."
The following day, November 19, Obama began a new line of attack, picking up a discredited story circulated months ago. "I'm not in this race to fulfill some long-held plan or because it was owed to me," Obama said. An Obama spokesperson reinforced the point: "Barack Obama has not been mapping out his run for president from Washington for the last 20 years like some of his opponents."
Wow, Larry Johnson does get it.
But where did this new attack originate? Just as he had used Novak's false story for the previous two days, now he tried to damage Senator Clinton's reputation by using another patently false story. Months ago, Jeff Gerth, the reporter who spent years hyping the Whitewater fables as real, and his co-author Dale Van Natta, attempted to promote their anti-Hillary screed, "Her Way," with the supposedly startling revelation that Hillary and planned to run for president 20 years ago. But Gerth and Van Natta had no actual source. And the one source to whom they did attribute the story, Pulitzer Prize winning historian Taylor Branch, was someone they never interviewed and who told the Washington Post, "The story is preposterous. I never heard either Clinton talk about a `plan' for them both to become president."
Despite this story's exposure as false for months, Obama eagerly exploited it to try to portray Senator Clinton as Lady Macbeth. First using Novak and then Gerth for his materials, he painted her as a dirty trickster, dishonest and recklessly ambitious.
But why does Obama do this? Once Novak's story was exposed as a smear itself, why didn't he stop? Why did he keep it going? And why did he revive the Gerth falsehood to tarnish Senator Clinton's character?
Obama's tactics appear in sync with Rove's script. His feigned victimhood is a negative attack on Senator Clinton's character to drive the numbers, which in turn Obama hopes will determine the nomination. While posing above the fray, but executing Rove's strategy and exploiting Novak's innuendo, Obama has embraced the audacity of hype.
"Audacity of hype" is a weak description of what Obama is doing. A correspondent sent us this:
"all his moves and attacks are in this manner, being dirty, and stupid (i guess his stupidity and the willingness of the press to play along is really what bothers me) and then hiding behind high-minded rhetoric is the CLASSIC bush move - and it IS NOT that the deomcrats went along, as obama says and dirties the well for his own party. it's the media that really fell for it, and created a political climate in which it was very hard to oppose bush, because doing so would get you hammered in the press. If the democrats were tougher from the begining, yes they might have been able to stop that, but you need massive organizational, coordinated strenght like the republicans have wielded in the past 20 years to push things in the other direction. And when Obama comes out and attacks the democrats it's just a form of sabotage - shows that this guy cares nothing but for himself - ofcourse he actually believes progressive ideas, but when you are so self-obsessed with yourself, and dastardly as he is, the actual result is counterproductive to the overall progressive effort. He has gotten so caught up in his own abilities, that he is sacrificing everything he thinks he believes in. That's the other reason Im pissed- it's hubris in the most classical greek sense, his story really is the backbone of greek tragedy, because everything he does is self-inflicted. Anyway, just a real lowlife all around, not taking a shot at the media, because as we discussed he really craves these peoples respect, not realizing they deserve nothing but contempt"
Sounds about right to us. Obama's models appear to be his cousin Cheney, Romney and Rove.

Exclusive: Nokia Lumia 800 Microsoft Store bundle launching February 14th for $899
Microsoft will launch Nokia's Lumia 800 device in the US as a special bundle item priced at $899. That's the word from sources close to Microsoft's Lumia launch plans, who have confirmed the bundle will include a Nokia Play 360 Wireless Speaker, Purity HD Stereo Headset, and an in-ear Bluetooth headset. Microsoft plans to launch the special bundle on February 14th and the Lumia 800 will not be made available separately, at least initially.
The Lumia 800 will be available unlocked from Microsoft's retail stores, with no official carrier support, and will be aimed at Valentine's Day and gift shoppers initially, as there are no proposals to offer the Lumia 800 outside of the bundle deal. Microsoft originally revealed its plans at CES 2012 to offer the Lumia 800 in its US stores, and we can confirm that the recently announced white edition will be stocked "soon" too.

(Waterloo, WI) – Trek Bicycle announced today, along with Luxembourg-based Leopard True Racing, its co-title sponsorship of the formerly unnamed Luxembourg Pro Cycling Project, creating the LEOPARD TREK cycling team. Featuring podium regulars Frank and Andy Schleck, as well as classics king Fabian Cancellara, LEOPARD TREK will race team-issued Trek Madone and Speed Concept bicycles throughout 2011 and beyond.
After dominating 13 Grand Tours in the past 12 years, Trek's intimate relationship with professional cycling programs has persistently propelled riders to the pinnacle of their sport. Trek's Race Department will play an integral role in the foundation of the new team, supplying all LEOPARD TREK team cycling equipment and serving as day-to-day technical advisors.
"Ultimately we're driven by the idea that we can make riders go faster," said Trek's Race Department Manager, Scott Daubert. "We've developed a solid knowledge base that we have continued to build upon and expanded for more than a decade. It's amazing when you see that work pay off and know that you helped be a catalyst for real, tangible results. It's why I get up in the morning. It's what we do best."
A real sense of confidence surrounds Team LEOPARD TREK riders and staff, as they have already begun preparations for the 2011 race calendar, dialing in measurements, making adjustments and getting acclimated to their new equipment.
"Trek is more than just a bike sponsor," said LEOPARD TREK team leader Fränk Schleck, "they are our partner, our teammate, as important as any rider on the team. They will make us faster."

By Stuart Hirsch The Herald Bulletin
The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — The Anderson Redevelopment Commission this week approved spending up to $10,000 to improve a railroad spur that primarily serves Tru-Cut Inc. off South Madison Avenue.
The work will include the replacement of railroad ties and other rail items. The company, which makes wood veneer items, relies on the spur to ship and receive products.
But members of the commission and its attorney, Ann Marie Bauer, said this will be a one-time assist.
"They are responsible. . . . We are not under any obligation for this," Bauer said.
While he understands Bauer and the commission's concern, Interim Economic Development Director Greg Winkler said he was in favor of the expenditure, seeing it as an opportunity for possible business expansion.
In other action, the commission was asked to consider buying the former Kmart and Payless Supermarket site immediately adjacent to the former Edgewood Plaza shopping center site. The plaza was demolished last year, and the city wants to redevelop the property.
The Kmart property is owned by SouthStar Properties. It was recently appraised at $300,000, but the owner said he would offer it to the redevelopment commission for $250,000, Winkler said.
"I know you don't want to be a landlord," Winkler added, but he urged commission members to consider the idea because it would make the plaza property more marketable for redevelopment if the city controlled what would become a parcel of about 20 acres.
Built in 1960, Edgewood Plaza over the years housed a Citizens Bank, a Hallmark store, an Aldi's grocery store, an Old Country Buffet, a barber shop and a department store. The last business left in January 2012.
The area was incorporated into Anderson's consolidated tax increment financing (TIF) district so that property taxes collected from new development can be used to pay for infrastructure and other improvements. The city then hired Development Concepts Inc. (DCI) at a cost of up to $75,000 to assess potential uses for the site, marketing it and finding a developer.
The area that DCI is assessing begins at the corner of Raible and Nichol avenues and goes to 16th Street, and west to the former Kmart and Pay Less Supermarket site.
DCI staff has met with members of the Edgewood Town Council to get a sense of what area residents would like to see there. In late March, Town Council President Patty Farran said she favors a hardware store as well as big name stores, a coffee shop and housing, so people can live close to shops.

United States Bankruptcy Court
Grand Rapids
February 22, 2013: Notice Regarding Bruce W. Neckers as Court Ombudsman
TO: Bankruptcy Attorneys Who Practice In the Western District of Michigan
FROM: James D. Gregg, Chief Judge
RE: New Bankruptcy Court Ombudsman
DATE: February 22, 2013
The bankruptcy judges are pleased to announce that Bruce W. Neckers has agreed to serve as the court's ombudsman to facilitate anonymous communications between attorneys and the three bankruptcy judges (as well as the Clerk of the Court). Mr. Neckers' contact information is:
Bruce W. Neckers, Esq.
Rhoades McKee, PC
161 Ottawa Avenue, N.W., Suite 600
Grand Rapids, MI 49503
Tele. No. (616) 233-5217
Email: email@example.com
Mr. Neckers has a wealth of experience. He engages in a litigation practice in many areas: corporate, business, large divorce disputes, healthcare, real estate, and employment relations. He has served as a mediator in more than 500 cases in the state and federal courts. He has been the President of the State Bar of Michigan and the Grand Rapids Bar Association.
Mr. Neckers is an extremely good listener and a great communicator. He is the ideal person for bankruptcy attorneys to pass along criticisms, suggestions and constructive comments about any judge, the judges collectively, the clerk, and the deputy clerks. Mr. Neckers will not breach any confidences and will not disclose the identities of those attorneys who use his services. After he receives information, he will communicate with the appropriate person to make the information known. As chief judge, I will periodically meet with Mr. Neckers to discuss matters that may involve the bankruptcy court as an institution.
One important comment: Mr. Neckers is not the person to contact when you may disagree with a judge's legal decision – that is what appellate courts are for. However, if you have any specific complaints about procedures, that is fair game.
The judges encourage you to contact Mr. Neckers when you think it is appropriate.
Finally, the judges again thank Jamie Geary for the many years he was the court's ombudsman. He did an excellent job and we wish him well in the future.
