Hopeful signs noted for immigration reform

WASHINGTON (BP) -- The push for immigration reform shows some hopeful signs after years of contentious battle over the issue, panelists said during a conference on cultural renewal in Washington, D.C.
"The momentum is in the right direction," Southern Baptist public policy specialist Barrett Duke said.
"I believe we are going to see our country deal in a humane way with the question of the folks who are here illegally."
- Barrett Duke
"I believe we are going to see our country deal in a humane way with the question of the folks who are here illegally, but we do still have a lot of work to do at the grassroots level," Duke said to a group of attendees at Q 2012, an annual conference that brings together Christians to focus on cultural renewal.
Evangelical Christians need to inform their members of Congress that they care about comprehensive immigration reform in addition to such issues as abortion, Duke said.
"What we have to do is get enough folks in their districts and in their states to say, 'This matters also. We want you to take a position on this too, and this is the position we want you to take,'" he said.
Some agreement exists between those who support comprehensive immigration reform and those who want to deport all illegal immigrants, Duke told the briefing attendees.
"[T]here is some common ground when you begin to talk about the impact on folks who have been here for a long time," he said. "And I think that's a starting point ... for us to begin to talk about the question of the impact [on] people when you drive them out of, in many cases, the only place they know and the only ... situation they have where they can actually make a living."
Messengers to the 2011 Southern Baptist Convention in Phoenix approved a resolution on immigration reform that called for the advancement of the Gospel of Jesus while pursuing justice and compassion. The resolution urged the government to make a priority of securing the nation's borders and holding businesses accountable in their hiring. After securing the borders, the resolution also requested that public officials establish "a just and compassionate path to legal status, with appropriate restitutionary measures, for those undocumented immigrants already living in our country." The resolution specified it was not to be interpreted as supporting amnesty.
Duke, at the April 12 briefing, said most Southern Baptists agree that "it is not Christian -- not to mention it is not humane -- to try to drive 10 to 12 million people out of the country."
Southern Baptists "are in a very good position on this," he said. "We continue to advocate for immigration reform. We're going to be ramping up our efforts at the grassroots level as well, because it's clear nothing's going to happen in Washington, D.C., until the country demands it."
Ali Noorani, executive director of the National Immigration Forum, said an interesting shift has occurred in the debate.
"The story for so many years has been about the conflicts around immigration reform, about one side versus another," Noorani said during the briefing. "Now the story is, 'Okay, how do we get this solved, and how do we piece together the votes and the policy that will get a bill to the president's desk?'"
He continued, "I think that conservatives are realizing that in order to compete for not only Hispanic voters but also non-Hispanic voters, they have to put forward a compassionate position on the need for immigration reform. I think your liberal politicians are realizing they just can't play politics anymore, that they have to reach across the aisle and say, 'Okay, how are we going to fix this problem?'"
Galen Carey, vice president of government relations for the National Association of Evangelicals, said the politics of the issue keeps it alive for some members of Congress.
"[S]ome people want to have the issue more than the result," Carey said. "So, they want to have this issue so that they can beat up on the other party and say, 'See those guys -- they hate you.' But if the problem were solved, then the issue would go away, and they don't want that either."
Noorani would not totally rule out passage of immigration reform this year, "but I think the chances are pretty slim," he said. "But there's a lot of important work that needs to take place in 2012."
For several years, the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commmission has supported the same type of comprehensive immigration reform advocated in the 2011 convention resolution. A paper written by Duke and ERLC President Richard Land on the fundamentals of "just immigration reform" can be accessed at http://erlc.com/article/just-immigration-reform-foundational-principles.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio regulators say they recognize the approval of higher rates for American Electric Power hurt small-business customers who saw their bills increase by up to 40 percent or more after the rates took effect last month.
The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio says it heard concerns from the governor, lawmakers and more than 200 affected customers and plans to address the issue soon.
The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/yH0Vf9 ) reports that filings ahead of the decision indicated the rates would hurt small businesses, but the commission says it relied on incorrect estimates from AEP when it approved the rate increases.
AEP says the extent of the increases also caught it off guard. An AEP spokesman told the newspaper regulators were provided the best available information, but the utility supports revisiting the decision.

Conservative columnist Charlotte Allen says she has the prescription for the GOP's post-election fever: more Sarah Palin.
In an op-ed for the Los Angeles Times, Allen endorses Palin as her choice for the Republican presidential nominee in 2016. On the heels of a bruising Republican loss to President Barack Obama earlier this month, Allen says Palin would perform better than GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney was able to because of her blue-collar persona and ability to appeal to voters' shallowest of sensibilities.
"Palin can more than keep up with the Democrats in appealing to voters' emotions," Allen writes. "Hardly anyone could be more blue collar than Palin, out on the fishing boat with her hunky blue-collar husband, Todd."
And that's not all.
Allen argues that Palin could disarm the Democrats' "war on women" refrain because she's a woman who has daughters. Palin is also anti-gay marriage, but has gay fans, which Allen appears to suggest she could use to build some support in the LGBT arena. And Palin's son is an Iraq war vet, so she's got the "patriot" card down, Allen writes. What's more, Allen writes, Palin is better looking than her potential female opponents.
"Looks count in politics, and Palin at age 48, has it all over her possible competition, including Hillary Rodham Clinton, who will be 69 by election day 2016 and who let someone talk her into adopting the flowing blond locks of a college student, making her look like Brunnhilde in a small-town Wagner production," Allen writes. "Men love Sarah Palin, and she loves men."
By the 2016 presidential election, the former Alaska governor who served only half of a term will have been out of elected office for more than 7 years. But what she's lacking in actual credentials, she makes up for in these other ways, Allen argues.
And Allen isn't the only one getting the inside track on 2016 endorsements. The Buffalo News endorsed Clinton last week, touting her lengthy resume and political experience.
For more on potential female presidential candidates in 2016, check out the slideshow below. For the rest of Allen's reasoning on why Palin should be the GOP's choice, read her entire op-ed at the Times.
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Clinton certainly has the resume to be a strong presidential contender: two terms as the first lady during her husband's popular administration, eight years as a U.S. senator from New York and four as a widely-acclaimed secretary of state under President Barack Obama. Not to mention that she has already mounted a presidential bid once before, during the 2008 Democratic primary. With quite a following among Democrats -- particularly women -- and an expert campaigner as a husband, Clinton is one of the frontrunners for the 2016 nomination. In fact, if the Iowa caucuses were held today, a Public Policy Polling survey found she would win 58 percent of the vote, outstripping the runner-up, Vice President Joe Biden, by a margin of 41 percent. Now the question is whether or not Clinton will decide to throw her hat in the ring in 2016. After her term as secretary of state ends this year, she has declared her intention to take a year off from politics entirely. And after that? Clinton says that she does not want to run in 2016, but that hasn't quashed hopes to the contrary. -- Sarah Bufkin
Susana Martinez
Susana Martinez, a Republican, was elected in 2010, becoming the first female governor of New Mexico and first female Hispanic governor in the United States. Her name was also floated as a potential running mate to Mitt Romney in 2012, but she was ultimately passed over for the job. The GOP's poor showing among women and Latinos in this year's presidential election, however, could make Martinez a strong potential choice in 2016. -- Sarafina Wright
Elizabeth Warren
Warren, a favorite of many liberals and a fierce advocate of financial reform, beat out Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) in their 2012 contest, putting a Democrat back in the seat formerly held by the late Ted Kennedy. Warren first made a name for herself on the political scene after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) tapped her to chair the congressional panel tasked with overseeing the distribution of the stimulus funds. A bankruptcy law expert and professor at Harvard Law School, Warren pushed for the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and later led the effort to set up the new agency. After Republicans made it clear that they would never confirm Warren as the new CFPB head, the president passed her over in favor of Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray. In 2011, Warren declared her intention to challenge Brown for his seat. She proved to be one of the most magnetic Senate candidates, raising $39 million for her campaign and giving a primetime speech at the Democratic National Convention. Although immensely popular with Democrats, Warren has denied that she would consider a presidential run in 2016. -- Sarah Bufkin
Kelly Ayotte
As one of Mitt Romney's top surrogates during the 2012 presidential campaign, Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) gained national exposure, regularly appearing on cable TV and the Sunday show circuit. Before her successful Senate election in 2010, she served as New Hampshire's attorney general. A strong conservative quickly building her profile in the Senate, Ayotte could answer the call to help Republicans win back the support of women. -- Sarafina Wright
Kirsten Gillibrand
A progressive Democratic senator from New York, Gillibrand recently won reelection with 72 percent of the vote in 2012, the highest margin of any senator in the state's history. After serving as special counsel to Andrew Cuomo during his tenure as the secretary of housing and urban development in the Clinton administration, the former attorney worked on Hillary Clinton's successful campaign for Senate in 2000. She credits Clinton with inspiring her to get into politics, and in 2006, Gillibrand won a House seat in the district that included her hometown of Albany, N.Y. Two years later, when her former mentor left to become the secretary of state, Gov. David Paterson appointed Gillibrand to fill Clinton's former Senate seat. Gillibrand lobbied successfully for the repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy and led a campaign to get more women elected to Congress. -- Sarah Bufkin
Cathy McMorris Rodgers
As the highest-ranking Republican woman in the House of Representatives, Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Wash.) is considered a rising star in the party. She was first elected in 2004 and currently serves as the vice chairman of the House Republican Conference. She is also a member of the Republican Study Committee, a caucus comprised of some of the most conservative GOP members of the House. After the 2012 election, she argued that the Republican Party does not necessarily need to be more moderate, but that it needed to embrace more "modern" positions. -- Ian Gray
Kamala Harris
Kamala Harris, the 48-year-old Democratic attorney general of California, is the first African-American and first Indian-American to serve California in this capacity. She served as a co-chair for President Barack Obama's reelection campaign and received a high-profile speaking role at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte over the summer. Harris is perhaps best known for her successful efforts to secure a $26 billion mortgage settlement from the nation's biggest banks on behalf of homeowners in early 2012. -- Sarafina Wright
Condoleezza Rice
The first African-American woman to serve as secretary of state would certainly be a trailblazer if she ran for president and became the first female commander-in-chief. A Republican, Rice is an accomplished pianist, holds a Ph.D in political science and has served as provost of Stanford University. She served as President George W. Bush's first national security adviser before moving to the State Department. Though she has never run for elected office, she was a popular choice to be Mitt Romney's vice presidential pick, due to her foreign policy credentials and ability to bridge the GOP's gap with women and non-white voters. Correction: An earlier version of this text misstated that Rice was the first African-American secretary of state. She was the first African-American woman to serve in that position. -- Daniel Lippman
Amy Klobuchar
Klobuchar, a member of Minnesota's Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, has been a U.S. senator from Minnesota since 2007, most recently cruising to reelection in November. She is currently serving on the Judiciary Committee and the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, among others. A graduate of Yale and the University of Chicago Law School, she served as the Hennepin County attorney from 1999 to 2007. She is pro-choice and supported President Barack Obama's health care overhaul. -- Daniel Lippman
Nikki Haley
The current Republican governor of South Carolina, Haley won her first term in 2010 after serving for five years as a member of the state house. She is only the second Indian-American to serve as governor. Endorsed by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and the Tea Party movement, Haley takes a hard line on immigration and is ardently anti-tax. Many have touted her as one of the new post-racial faces of the Republican Party in the South, and she would certainly appeal to the GOP's right-wing elements. Haley was a visible surrogate for Mitt Romney during the 2012 election and was even included on his short list for vice president, but she has not indicated one way or the other if she would put herself in the running for the GOP nomination in 2016. -- Sarah Bufkin
Maggie Hassan
Maggie Hassan, the Democratic governor-elect of New Hampshire, will become only the second woman to have held the state's highest office when she is sworn in next year. Hassan was endorsed by former President Bill Clinton over the summer and has been praised as a strong fundraiser, having broken the record for the most money raised by a first-time gubernatorial candidate in New Hampshire. -- Ian Gray
Mary Fallin
A former lieutenant governor, member of Congress and current governor of Oklahoma, Republican Mary Fallin would bring solid conservative credentials to the GOP ticket. She won her gubernatorial race easily in 2010 and will reach her term limit if she runs and wins in 2014. A Fallin candidacy in 2016, however, would run the risk of bringing about comparisons to Sarah Palin's in 2008 -- as a deeply religious, female governor of a sparsely populated and reliably conservative state. She even received Palin's endorsement in 2010. -- Ian Gray
Jennifer Granholm
Granholm, the feisty former Democratic governor of Michigan, is now the host of The War Room television show on Current TV. Born in Canada, she became the first female governor of her state in 2003 and served until 2011, championing the critically important auto sector during a period of intense challenges. She reminded voters of her passionate nature at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, where she delivered an animated address. A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Harvard Law School, Granholm served as her state's attorney general before being elected governor. She has three children. While Granholm would currently be barred from running due to the Constitution's requirement that presidential candidates be natural-born, there have long been arguments about amending the language to allow for naturalized citizens to run as well. This post has been updated with additional information about Granholm's birthplace and constitutional restrictions -- Daniel Lippman
Sarah Palin
The former Republican governor of Alaska, Palin shot to fame after she was picked as Arizona Sen. John McCain's vice-presidential running mate in 2008. Since then, she's become a Fox News contributor and a hero to many conservatives and Tea Party members. She also wrote the best-seller "Going Rogue: An American Life" in 2009 and has dabbled in reality television. Though she still has star-power in some circles, Democrats and many independents remain skeptical about Palin's policy chops. -- Daniel Lippman
Michelle Obama
Despite her astronomical public approval rating, Michelle Obama would be something of a surprise candidate in 2016, considering her husband's current role. You might expect to see the first lady as a surrogate for the future Democratic nominee though. Her popularity and skills as a campaigner will likely be called upon by whomever gets the nod. -- Sarafina Wright
Lisa Murkowski
In 2010, Alaska Republican Lisa Murkowski became the first successful write-in candidate for U.S. Senate since South Carolina's Strom Thurmond in 1954. She was first appointed to the Senate in 2002 by her father, Gov. Frank Murkowski, after having previously served in the Alaska House of Representatives. Her candidacy in 2016 would likely face headwinds from the GOP base, due to her relatively moderate positions on abortion and stem cell research. Additionally, she was one of just five Republicans to support the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which passed in 2009. -- Sarafina Wright
Christine Gregoire
Gregoire, formerly the Democratic governor of the state of Washington, is the second female to serve in that position. A lawyer, Gregoire was elected attorney general of her state in 1992 before being elected governor in 2004 in a razor-tight race against Republican Dino Rossi. She was reelected in 2008 and also served as the chairwoman of the National Governors Association for the 2010-11 term. One of her top accomplishments as governor included a plan to raise revenue to fund new transportation improvements to fix roads in Washington. She is a supporter of gay marriage, which was passed in her state in 2012. -- Daniel Lippman This slide was first published before the 2012 elections and has been updated to reflect that Gregoire left office in January 2013.
Michele Bachmann
The Republican Tea Party favorite from Minnesota has already attempted a run at the White House and failed to clear the hurdles of the GOP primary, but she could be up to give it another go. Bachmann is an outspoken conservative who stands with the right-wing segment of the party. She opposes tax increases, big-government spending, the Affordable Care Act, environmental regulation and gay rights. The four-term congresswoman is an adroit fundraiser, employing a strategy that allows her to make controversial statements on public platforms and then reap the funding windfall. In 2008, she brought in nearly $1 million after accusing President Barack Obama of having anti-American views. But the Minnesotan barely clung on to her seat in the 2012 election, eeking out a win by just over 4,000 votes -- which calls into question her ability to attract the majority of the GOP electorate and independent voters four years from now. -- Sarah Bufkin
Kristi Noem
First elected in 2010 during the Tea Party wave, Republican Kristi Noem was chosen to represent the freshman class as a liaison to the House GOP leadership. Noem was then reelected in 2012 as South Dakota's sole representative in the House, easily defeating Democratic challenger Matt Varilek. Though she turned down a run for reelection in her leadership role, she remains a member of the conservative Republican Study Committee and has been a vocal critic of President Barack Obama. Noem would likely play up her family's farming and ranching business in a 2016 run, as well as her tenure on the Agriculture Committee, to shore up support in midwestern states. -- Ian Gray
Pam Bondi
As Florida's Republican attorney general, Pam Bondi was a leader in the failed effort to overturn President Barack Obama's signature legislative achievement, the Affordable Care Act. At the 2012 Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., Bondi drew attention for her assertion that Obama has a "total disregard for our individual liberty." Given her status as a female public figure serving in a swing state, who has worked to achieve one of the GOP's core goals (repealing Obamacare), expect to hear Bondi's name more in the years to come. -- Ian Gray

Whisenhunt: No sense of relief that season is ending
From a nine-game losing streak to a historic 58-0 loss to a never-ending carousel at quarterback, Whisenhunt's resolve has certainly been tested over the first 15 games of the season. Yet even as the Cardinals are just days away from saying goodbye to a forgettable campaign, Whisenhunt doesn't want it to end.
"Even though it's tough, the competition drives you, wanting to get better and wanting to do things the right way in order to have success," Whisenhunt said Monday. "If you aren't competitive you shouldn't be in here. And if [losing] doesn't bother you, you shouldn't be doing this.
"Will there be a sense of relief? No. The first thing I'm going to think about [when it ends] is that we don't have a chance to keep going and get it better, get it fixed."
With the team sitting at 5-10 -- its worst record under Whisenhunt -- speculation has grown in recent weeks as to whether he, his coaching staff and many notable players will even have a chance to get things fixed next season. But playing against a divisional rival who still has plenty on the line, Whisenhunt said there's no chance his team would pack it in against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17.
"That's really about desire and character, and having the right guys," said Whisenhunt. "As tough of a stretch as we've been through here the last couple years, [packing it in] has never been an issue.
"You always hear that about players having their cars running that last game, but I don't have that concern with our guys. Not with what they've shown on the field."
Although Whisenhunt isn't worried about his team's mentality when they take the field Sunday in the Bay Area, the question still remains as to who will take the field at quarterback against the 49ers. As of Monday afternoon, Arizona's head coach was still undecided as to who would get the nod against one of the top-ranked defenses in the NFL.

Richland — Valedictorian Tasha Talbot and Salutatorian Tyler Koglin served their classmates some wisdom and memories from their high school days during Liberty Christian School's graduation ceremony Saturday afternoon in Richland.
Koglin spiced his speech with plenty of humor, poking fun at himself as well as his classmates.
The nice thing about having a small class is that it was easy to keep track of students during our class trip, Koglin joked.
But he also was quick to point out his own youthful shortcomings, like eating too much and admitting P.E. had always been his favorite time of day at school.
Seriously, I learned so much at Liberty Christian, he said. I liked that we were pushed to do our best, and I had amazing friends and teachers who encouraged me to continue to do Gods work.
Talbot began her valedictorian speech with as much humor as Koglin, poking fun at herself for misspelling valedictorian.
I always pronounced it valedictorian because (the achievement) is a victory, she jested. But Ive been dreaming of this day since 2008.
Thats when her sister graduated as valedictorian, followed by her brother who was valedictorian in 2010.
When a video presentation was given to the audience, the students circulated through the gym passing out roses to their loved ones.

DETROIT (WWBT) -- General Motors was proud to reveal the new 2014 "C7" Corvette on Sunday night that was 9 years in the making. The new American sports car will be in showrooms this fall. One major change from the old version, gas mileage.
GM's bankruptcy slowed development twice. With each delay, new safety and gas mileage regulations forced changes. "There won't be a Corvette if we don't care about fuel economy," said Tadge Juechter, the car's chief engineer.
Lighter parts and the V-8 engine being knocked down to four cylinders, all help with the sports car consumption of fuel. All the changes helped it overcome nine years of government crash safety requirements that could have bloated the car. But even with the lighter materials, the regulations have pushed its weight to a little more than the current base model's 3,200 pounds. The Corvette is so new that it only shares two parts with the current model.
GM is still testing the gas mileage and promises that the new version will be better than the old version's 16/city 26/highway.
A 6.2-liter small-block V-8 with 450 horsepower takes the car from zero to 60 mph in under four seconds.
The company won't quote a price on the 2014 model. But sources said someone who bought the current version can afford the new one. The Corvette starts at $49,600. That is more than $30,000 below what GM considers its chief competitor, the Porsche 911.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Police in Madison are looking for the men they say robbed another man at gunpoint Wednesday night.
Officers were called to the Super 8 Motel on Hayes Road around 6:30 p.m. They say the victim reported four men were in his room earlier in the day with his permission, but returned later and robbed him of cash at gunpoint.
The victim gave police a license plate of the suspect vehicle, which was later stopped by police in Sun Prairie. The driver of the vehicle was held for questioning.
Police say this does not appear to be a random robbery.

They are getting more and more popular these days -- automakers Kia and Hyundai. That popularity is based in part of some great gas mileage. But is the mileage really that great?
It looks like mileage claims on some models were exaggerated by up to 6 miles a gallon.
A 2013 Hyundai Elantra was supposed to 40 miles per gallon on the freeway. Now it's 38.
Still pretty good, but not what the automaker claimed. It could cost them.
Monday, we learned that both Hyundai and Kia have been slapped with a class lawsuit after the EPA claimed the Korean automakers overstated their gas mileage on about 900,000 vehicles by anywhere from 1 to 6 miles per gallon.
The automakers say different methods of testing are likely to blame.
"Whether they did it intentionally I guess we will never know. But 6 miles per gallon on one make is a lot," says Matt Allen with Virginia Auto Service.
Allen explained to us the government's testing method.
"They have got a device on the tail pipe measuring the exhaust gas emissions, but they are measuring the amount of carbon coming out of the exhaust and through that finite amount of carbon and that calculation they can determine how much fuel has been consumed."
Both companies touted their big mileage numbers in commercials.
On our Facebook page we asked owners of these cars what they're been seeing and we got a lot of feedback.
"We get good gas mileage but not what we were told," said Kali Blair, who has a Hyundai Elantra.
Shannon Stuckley told us she bought a 2012 Kia Soul in March. "It's supposed to get 35 miles per gallon it's never gotten better than 26... kinda upset about the lies."
Before all this, Kia and Hyundai were thought to have some of the best mileage numbers in the industry.
"I would imagine that this a big wake up call for some other manufacturers," says Allen.
For their part, Kia and Hyundai have offered to reimburse owners in the form of a prepaid debit card.
It appears the car makers will be refunding owners for as long as that owner keeps the car.
Hyundai has said the typical driver will be reimbursed a little less than $100 a year.

The baseball hot stove has just begun; a trade was made earlier this week and the signing of Willie Bloomquist to what appears to be a way-above-market free-agent deal must give guys like Aaron Miles dollar signs dancing in their heads.
It all makes for a busy offseason and has fans looking forward to 2012 -- except there's one small obstacle in the way; the labor agreement between MLB owners and players expires on Dec. 11. Given the rancor currently between NBA owners and players, could we have a labor stoppage in baseball?
Not likely. I'm no big fan of Bud Selig, but since the disastrous strike of 1994 that cancelled the World Series, Selig and his MLBPA counterparts have realized that having another labor stoppage could kill the game. Instead of being at loggerheads, the two sides have realized there's enough money to go around, and since 2002 they've signed two agreements (the most recent in 2006) that have kept the game going. It's been 17 years' worth of labor peace in baseball, and for that, we as fans can all be grateful.
Wednesday, ESPN.com's Jayson Stark reports that the two sides are making progress in labor talks:
Negotiations in Major League Baseball's stalled labor talks have taken "a step forward" this week, according to one source familiar with the discussions, and a second source told ESPN.com it's possible a deal could be completed this week.
Or not:
However, another source described the chances of an agreement this week as only about 50-50, saying that the sides had made what appeared to be similar progress in the past, only to get stuck on other issues.
The biggest current issue separating the two sides is "slotting" for bonuses for amateur draft picks; the owners would like a "hard slotting" system, the players would prefer that not to be the case. Also still in dispute is the compensation system for free agents, which currently can add dozens of draft picks to the early rounds for teams losing premier free agents. This could be one reason there haven't yet been any major free agent signings:
"It's not that unusual for things to develop slowly," one prominent agent said, "but I think the (labor uncertainty) is definitely having an effect. I think some teams just want to know a deal is in place before they start spending significant money."
There are still almost five weeks until the current agreement expires and five months before meaningful games are played. It would seem to me that given the cooperative way in which the two sides have reached deals over the last decade, another similar deal with compromises made by both sides could be reached soon.

Hi Tony and Patricia. THANK YOU!!!!!! Thank you for the photo and also for the info from the obituary. Can you tell me how I can get a copy of the actual obituary as well? I have looked in several places, trying to find the Sherman Democrat (or the Sherman Herald Democrat) and also the Denison Herald, and can't find it. So if you would direct me, that would be great.

Dear Patricia and Tony:
My profound thanks for the wonderful photograph you were kind enough to post on my young cousin Joe's memorial that was crafted so lovingly by my cousin, Michael Ramsey.
I'm not so so naive as to think this is a single act of kindness. Your many contributions to micro-history, and its conservation, are both admirable and prodigious.
Somehow those actions are more convincing knowing your are an Army couple. Tony, thank you for your service to our republic. And, Patricia thank you for all your support. May I add you to my list of Find A Grave friends?
Sine Pari,

With the talk of Brett Favre possibly missing his first start since 1992 this weekend against the Patriots, why not take a look at his would-be replacement, Tarvaris Jackson?
I am constantly amazed when I hear from people about Jackson and the rancor they seem to hold for this young man. Radio show hosts bemoan his name like Jackson made mother jokes about them. Fans hold him in vehement disgust, like he refused to autograph their kids' pennants.
And yet, you have to ask, more than a third of the way through a trying Vikings season, no more trying to anyone than Favre, is the alternative that much worse?
Passer ratings are sometimes as spurious as the Fed's economic numbers because they ignore so many factors, but they do tell part of the story clearly. So, there's no reason why we shouldn't pair up Jackson's career passer mark of 77.9 with Favre's rating of 68.0 this season.
Both men have more in common than you'd think. When they are bad, they are baaaaaad. Coming off last season's twilight flourish, and considering all of his achievements, Favre is the universally accepted better choice. Naturally. But Jackson has had some moments where he has looked like — don't laugh — a young Donovan McNabb. He has some real NFL-caliber skills for the position.
With that in mind, here is my take on Jackson's five best performances in the NFL, in reverse order:
5. Week 16, 2008 season (24-17 loss to the Falcons): Jackson threw for 233 yards and two TDs and rushed for 76 yards, but he also lost a fumble (one of two on the game, although RB Adrian Peterson could have taken the blame for the handoff) at the Falcons' 16-yard line. The Vikings were killed in this game when Peterson was held to a pedestrian 76 rushing yards, the run defense struggled without Pat Williams and the team had some fluky plays go against them. Jackson hit on 11 straight passes at one point and threw two TD passes to Visanthe Shiancoe, the second of which made it a one-score game with just under three minutes remaining, but the Vikings couldn't close it out.
4. Week 12, 2007 (41-17 win over the Giants): This game is best remembered for Eli Manning's disastrous performance, in which he threw four interceptions, three of which were run back for scores. But Jackson, in his ninth start, acquitted himself well almost immediately. He hit Sidney Rice on a 60-yard TD pass a mere 41 seconds into the game. And though Manning did his best to sink his own team, the Giants made it a two-score game at the start of the second half with a quick field goal and were within striking distance. Jackson responded — he converted two key third downs during a 14-play drive and helped eat up more than nine minutes of clock and put the game out of reach. Jackson's final numbers were not amazing (129 yards passing, 38 rushing), but his efficiency was uncanny (10-of-12 passing, 10.8 yards per pass attempt). He was both a game manager and a playmaker in this one.
3. Week 17, 2008 (20-19 win over the Giants): The Giants already had wrapped up the NFC's top seed, but head coach Tom Coughlin ended any question of benching starters quickly. He played to win, as did the Vikings, who were looking for their first playoff appearance in four seasons. Jackson was not perfect, throwing a pick in the endzone that was returned to midfield, but he directed a comeback from down 19-10 and took only two sacks against a blitz-heavy defense that ranked among the best in the league. Jackson threw for a season-high 239 yards, hitting Bernard Berrian with a 54-yard bomb to cut the Giants' lead to two points in the fourth.
2. Week 13, 2007 (42-10 win over the Lions): Jackson settled into a groove in his first real chance to run the Vikings' offense as the starter in his second season. In this game, he completed 18-of-24 passes for 204 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Vikings to TDs on their first six possessions. Jackson showed poise and command and led a team that was getting Peterson back from injury in that game.
1. Week 15, 2008 (35-14 win over the Cardinals): In his finest hour, replacing starter Gus Frerotte, Jackson was accurate, precise and deadly with his 17 passes, completing four for touchdowns — of 41, 6, 11 and 59 yards — against a Cardinals defense that would be in the Super Bowl a month and a half later. He set the tone early with the 41-yarder to Berrian, thrown just outside the defender's reach, and helped stave off an Arizona comeback by hitting Wade on the 59-yard bomb as the third quarter was ending. Jackson did little with his legs (three rushes, three yards) but showed that he could be a pocket passer who could attack a passive defense that clearly was unimpressed with his skills.

Not much I liked about this hotel.
The rooms are way over priced.When I walked in the 'Deluxe suite' I took a look around and realized it was far from deluxe. I asked if they had a room that was a little nicer (after all I was paying -----for one night. family of four) and they said they could give me a one bedroom condo. I walked in with my family and the condo was not cleaned. I was given a second condo that was clean but had only warm water for my kids to take a shower with. In the morning we had NO HOT WATER. I think this unit shared a hot water tank with two other units. We had the breakfast plan and at breakfast time we where told that if we wanted eggs we could have scrambled or over easy. I asked if it was possible for me to get a omelet, the lady looked at me and said 'did I say we have omelets'. Is that something you say to a family that just spent over ----bucks for one night. The only good thing was that the food in the pub was good.

Gillingham have begun preparations for life in League One by signing Amine Linganzi from Accrington on a two-year deal.
The 23-year-old DR Congo international midfielder made 13 appearances last season for Stanley and has had previous spells with Blackburn and French club St Etienne.
After confirming his first signing of the summer, Gills boss Martin Allen was in confident mood regarding the midfield's potential impact at the Priestfield Stadium.
"He is a midfield player, he is massive and he was the best central midfield player that played at Priestfield last season," Allen told the club's official club website.
"Before his injuries, it looked like he was heading for the top, and now he is fully recovered, I believe we have a player who can helps us march onwards and upwards."

Comments about HP 648A Yellow Original LaserJet Toner Cartridge:
Let's face it -- in this day and age, with our current level of technology, with everything from wireless internet to skyping to banking on our cell phones -- we still need to print out paperwork. The adage that 'paper is dead' isn't true if you're in business, in the legal profession or work for any government agency. Printing out the paperwork that makes our worlds go round is a necessity. Hewlett-Packard has some good printers, they have good toners. However, as good as these toners are, they are a bit overpriced. They do last for thousands of pages though.

Under 30 Minutes
Fettuccine with Spinach Pesto
We added a twist to a classic pesto sauce by replacing the basil with spinach.
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- 12 ounces fettuccine
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving (optional)
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts, plus more for serving (optional)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon grated zest plus 2 tablespoons juice from 1 lemon
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Step 1
Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water; immediately drain pasta, and return to pot.
Step 2
While pasta is cooking, place spinach, Parmesan, nuts, garlic, and lemon zest and juice in a food processor. Process until a paste forms. With motor running, add oil and 1/4 cup cold water; process until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Add to pasta; toss, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time until sauce is thinned slightly and coats fettuccine (you may not need all the water). Serve, sprinkled with additional Parmesan and nuts, if desired.

A compilation of reviews and theatre-related pieces culled from 160-years worth of articles in a daily newspaper seems likely to be rather scattershot, entertainment-wise. Unless, that is, said newspaper sits in either of the theatrical capitals, New York or London. Local audiences from a touring town might be interested, sure; but how can such a compendium possibly compare to historic tales of Broadway or the West End, where theatrical legends were anointed and embellished?
Chris Jones, the present-day chief critic for the Chicago Tribune, provides an answer by digging through his paper's archives and surfacing with 101 pertinent — and often fascinating — pieces. Bigger, Brighter, Louder: 150 Years of Chicago Theater comes to us, fittingly enough, from the University of Chicago Press. Chicago, of course, is seen by many as the "second city" and we needn't get into a discussion of that here, thank you very much. It is enough to say that for much of the 20th century, Chicago was the second-most important spot on the theatrical map of the United States.
Most fascinating, for me at least, is the notorious Claudia Cassidy, whose "sharp-edged writing was unfailingly to the point, frequently witty, perennially unforgiving" and often laceratingly cruel. Several of her amusingly vicious pans are included, but three important reviews demanded attention — and still demand attention today.
Cassidy, famously, put Tennessee Williams on the figurative map. His first play had closed during its tryout, and his second was in imminent danger of doing so as well, when it arrived at the tail end of 1944. Business was so poor at the Civic Theater, with a gross of a mere $3,300 the first week, that the producers were facing the inevitable. The review from Cassidy — and a similarly supportive one from her cohort at the Herald-American, Ashton Stevens — was strong enough to attract increasing audiences while said producers, heartened by the praise, battled to find a New York landlord. They did, the show opened on Broadway in March, and The Glass Menagerie was roundly hailed.
Cassidy: "It is a dream in the dusk and a tough little play that knows people and how they tick. Etched in the shadows of a man's memory, it comes alive in theater terms of words, motion, lighting, and music. If it is your play, as it is mine, it reaches out tentacles, first tentative, then gripping, and you are caught in its spell."Continued...

More than 10,000 work truck industry professionals are set to descend on Indianapolis next week for North America's largest work truck event. The Work Truck Show 2013 runs March 6-8 at the Indiana Convention Center and features 500,000 square feet of the newest vocational trucks, vans and equipment.
Governmental agencies and private companies rely on work trucks every day to get their jobs done, particularly in the construction, utility, delivery, landscaping and agricultural industries. The Work Truck Show offers educational sessions, product introductions and unique test drives on city streets.
Off the 500,000-square-foot show floor, attendees can take part in the interactive Green Truck Ride-and-Drive, which offers participants real-world test drives in more than 20 commercially viable advanced hybrid and alternative fuel vocational vehicles. The Ride-and-Drive route takes participants onto the streets of Indianapolis and around Lucas Oil Stadium before returning to the Convention Center, giving them a true idea about how the trucks perform.
Last year's Work Truck Show at the Indiana Convention Center was the largest in history, with 563 exhibitors and more than 10,400 attendees.
