Add Miesha Tate's name to the list of fighters interested in getting a pay raise in the near future.
The former Strikeforce women's bantamweight champion was at a UFC public awareness campaign aimed at relaying the importance of HIV testing, and managed to speak with the media following the event. Tate, who only has one fight remaining on her four-fight deal, is interested in signing a new contract before returning to the octagon.
"I do want to get paid more, of course," she told MMAFighting.com. "I think my stock's gone up a lot since fighting in the UFC. I think the contract that transpired when I was still in Strikeforce, transitioning to the UFC, doesn't reflect what I feel like I'm worth. So that's a whole process that has to happen."
Tate also mentioned that she is interested in a rematch against Sarah Kaufman, although she does not want to get involved in the "childish cattiness of Twitter back-and-forth."
"She's definitely someone that I'm interested in fighting because I did lose a 29-28 back in the day when women's MMA was still only allowed to fight three, three-minute rounds. Definitely, she's someone I have on my radar. I'm just not looking to make a quick turnaround and fight next month, for instance."

The School for Lies: Freewheeling, Modern Molière Tribute
- Full Price:
- $25.00
- Our Price:
- $12.50
Contemporary slang meets 17th-century farce in The School for Lies. Adapted from Molière's The Misanthrope, playwright David Ives (Venus in Fur, All in the Timing) transforms Molière's classic into a modern satire told entirely through verse. The result is a delightfully incongruous comedy of manners that lets you peer inside the Parisian salon of Celimene, a young widow with a sharp tongue and plenty of suitors. Teresa Thuman and Ken Michels co-direct this Center Theatre production, in which a saucy siren finally meets her misanthropic match. Learn More

Comment: Time for more Government aid
Updated 9:19am Saturday 11th January 2014 in News
BERNADETTE Neil hit the nail on the head when she told David Cameron emergency workers had done all they could to protect her home from flooding but they could not fight nature.
Hundreds of people across this county have, and continue to, work tirelessly to minimise the effect of the flooding this week but there is a growing feeling they are fighting almost with one arm tied behind their collective back.
Flooding that badly affects this city and council is almost becoming an annual event.
As valiant as the work of the public sector has been, the Government needs to start providing proper infrastructure that means we don't have to press this army into service.
After every flood we are promised new protective measures and while they have some small benefits, we can't go on with large parts of this city cut off for days at a time.

Washington Post editor aims to support readers, reporters
By Katie Nelson
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Day In the Life
During the past five years, The Washington Post has ridden a roller coaster of fickle international politics and navigated a series of internal ups and downs.
Despite the wild ride, The Post's Sunday Business Editor Kelly Johnson said she feels calm.
"There's not much downside in my job, to be honest," Johnson said during a phone interview. "I feel very fortunate to have the job."
Every week, Johnson is put in charge of deciding how to fill the business section of the Sunday paper. She curates content and assigns photo packages and illustrations to communicate the week's theme. Then, she works with reporters, editors and columnists from other sections of the paper to write the content.
"I sort of just work with everyone on staff," she said. "I certainly feel I have the best job at The Washington Post because I have so much flexibility, and I end up getting to work with people on the stories they're most excited about doing."
Despite the large pool of people, resources and space she has to draw from for her section each week, Johnson said she doesn't have to negotiate with other editors for it.
"I also feel like I sort of work in a fantasy world of journalism," she said.
If anything, Johnson said the hardest part of her job is going out into the newsroom and trying to convince reporters to take on an extra project and write for her section, but even that's not too hard.
"I find that, if you're helping them do something that they're really excited about doing, that's not really very difficult," she said.
Born In the Business
Johnson describes her job as though it is easy, or at the very least, something she'd planned on doing her whole life. Her family has a history in the journalism business. Her great-grandfather owned the Ivanhoe Times in Ivanhoe, Minn., at a time when each staff member had multiple roles.
"They sold ads, then they wrote stories, then they took pictures, then they delivered the paper," Johnson said. "I think, when times were tough, they actually bartered with people for subscriptions."
Like his father, her grandfather also ended up in the newspaper industry, working for The Star Tribune in Minnesota before moving to South Dakota.
"We would sit at family dinners, and I would hear the wonderful stories of all these sort of rich characters," Johnson said.
Realizing Her Calling
Despite a profession that seemed hereditary, Johnson said she never considered being a journalist until she woke up about a month into her senior year at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and realized she had no idea where she was going to work after graduation.
"I wasn't sure why anyone would hire me," she said. "I was very good at reading books, but I realized there wasn't a lot of skill associated with that. It's like a light bulb went on and it occurred to me: 'I wonder if I could be a journalist.'"
So she walked over to the College of Journalism and met Dick Thien.
"He had a Mickey Mouse T-shirt on and a badly sunburned head. He took me into his office, and we had a long chat," she said. "He asked me all sorts of questions about my family and interests, and I think he was gauging a sense of my temperament. And then he looked at me and he said, 'You're going to be an editor. I can tell this is your track.'"
Johnson enrolled in the journalism college that same day.
Editing as a Career
She breezed through journalism classes, then stayed on to complete a master's degree. During her time in school, she had a Dow Jones News Fund internship at the Argus Leader in Sioux Falls, S.D., and an internship at The Washington Post. After graduating, Johnson found a job at The Oregonian in Portland, where she worked for seven years. She ultimately ended up back at The Washington Post, starting as a copy editor on the foreign desk.
Throughout her years in journalism, Johnson said she has always been an editor.
"One of my best friends from J School … she loved the idea of going to the Unicameral and nosing around and asking people questions. I didn't really love that idea – that didn't seem exciting to me," Johnson said. "I was much more interested in the story that came back and helping a writer figure out what the story was and helping shape the story and working on the story."
And it's exactly that temperament that Johnson says is the key to being a successful editor. She said the best editors are able to concentrate, are curious and have an interest in the world – how things work and why things are the way they are. She also recommends reading – lots of reading.
But it's not just knowing a lot of details that makes a person a good editor. It's also a specific attitude.
"I have a pretty strong feeling that my job is primarily for the readers, to provide them with the information that they need to get on with their lives to be informed citizens," she said. "I also work very much for the reporters and the writers. I see my job very simply as doing everything I can to help them do the work that they want to do and to help them write the best stories they can write … you can see yourself in almost a support role."
During her time at The Post, Johnson has seen the journalism landscape change dramatically. The Washington Post has had two new editors in chief since she started, has gone through a series of buyouts and now has a different owner. Johnson said her section is the only officially printed business section offered by The Post. Additionally, The Post has changed its view of online media, with the addition of Ezra Klein and Wonkblog. Klein has since left the paper, but Johnson said the paper plans to continue Wonkblog. She also said she is working to develop a data-based blog that will launch in the near future.
Even amid the changes, she said, the basics of journalism remain the same. And there's one bit of advice Johnson picked up from NPR's Ira Glass that she said still rings true:
"We must amuse ourselves at the most basic level to produce work that other people are going to be interested in," she said. "It's just more satisfying to do work that you're proud of."
ESPN editor uses sports savvy to move up in male-dominated field
By Natasha Rausch
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Heather Burns found a career in talking people off of ledges.
As a deputy editor at ESPN and one of the few women in sports editing, Burns uses her level-headedness to calm her reporters at the sight of trouble.
"I think I can be a bit more of a peacekeeper because I don't lose my head over things," Burns said. "Whereas a lot of guy sports editors just get pissed and start stomping around, and that doesn't help anything."
Although Burns has used her calm attitude to her advantage, being a woman in the industry has come with its challenges.
As a college reporter, she ignored the 50-year-old coaches who thought a girl couldn't learn the ins and outs of sports.
As a young journalist trying to break into the business in 1992, she ignored the Reno Gazette-Journal editor who asked why a female would want to be a sports reporter.
Now, as an editor at ESPN, she ignored the McDonald's worker who questioned her choice in jersey because she was a woman.
"They believed that because I was a woman I knew nothing about sports, and that still happens sometimes today," Burns said. "It doesn't matter if you're a woman or a man; it just matters if you know your stuff."
Burns has been learning her stuff since she was 3 years old, when Saturdays and Sundays were nothing but days to watch football with her dad.
It was then that she fell in love with sports and most of all, the National Football League (NFL).
"I just think that sports were the first reality TV," Burns said. "Sports do something for people that nothing else does. They take you away from your life, and it's a lot of fun."
Burns, a graduate of the University of Iowa, started her career as a stringer, taking phone calls at the Iowa City Press Citizen for the sports desk.
That turned into covering actual games, like track and swimming. Those were four-hour events she didn't particularly enjoy.
But football? She loved football.
Burns became the women's beat reporter for the Press Citizen for a year, making $5.25 an hour.
"I decided I was starting to be too good of friends with all the people I was covering," she said. "It started to be a conflict of interest, so I left."
She moved to Minneapolis where she worked at Dominos for eight months and applied for journalism jobs here and there.
Nothing panned out, and her parents were starting to wonder if she'd ever put her college degree to good use.
She finally broke into the business for the first time out of college as a sports reporter for the Reno-Gazette Journal in Reno, Nev. During that time, she did some reporting for USA Today as well. Then, she went to the St. Cloud Times in Minnesota and after that to the Port Huron Times-Herald in Michigan for a total of almost four years.
"You go bigger and bigger, until you get where you want to be," she said.
From Port Huron, Mich., she went to The Detroit News, where she would dabble in editing for the first time.
After working her way around The Detroit News as a copy editor, she applied for an assistant sports editor position.
"They were like, 'Well you've really shown the ability to lead. You have a good demeanor, so I think you'd be a good editor,'" Burns said.
Burns had been a reporter for 15 years. She figured she could always go back to reporting if editing wasn't her thing.
Burns said it turned out that she is better at being a manager than being a writer.
"To be a really, really good writer you have to be plugged in and have great sources or just be predisposed to be a good writer. Not everyone has that talent," she said. "I think my talent is with managing people and keeping everyone from jumping off ledges."
In January 2008, Burns was offered a position at ESPN. She almost didn't take it because of the tight niche she found at The Detroit News, but her girlfriend convinced her to take the job.
"Props to her for saying, 'Take the stupid job, ya idiot,'" Burns said.
Now, instead of sitting at home and watching football with her dad, Burns is paid to watch 10 to 12 hours of NFL every Sunday during the season.
"Yeah, it's a long day," she said, "but it's football."
Watching football for an entire day is hardly a challenge to Burns. The hard part is keeping up with the 24/7 news cycle and the constant digital content.
"You have to react to anything at any time of the day," she said. "If you have to wake up in the middle of the night to cover something, you do it. It's just the nature of the beast, and it sucks."
Burns said it's important to maintain a presence on social media in the digital age. Besides using her Twitter account to promote her favorite teams—the Tigers and the Cowboys—she uses it to promote her own writers.
"I usually just use Twitter as a way to send out news or analysis for ESPN," Burns said.
In the 25 years she has been a reporter and editor, Burns said media have changed a lot. They have moved to digital, and women have become more prominent in the sports newsroom.
But the only thing that hasn't changed is her love for football.
"If you can do a job everyday where you're having fun, then that's the way to go."
Editor works solo as owner of her own Omaha company
By Michaela Odens
University of Nebraska Lincoln
Sandra Wendel had barely started along her career path when she got fired.
She was a communications expert at a non-profit organization, and she and the company didn't see eye-to-eye. It was this experience combined with her personality that made Wendel realize she would prefer to work alone.
She had been an editor at her high school newspaper and a journalism major at The University of Iowa so she decided to start her own editing company, Write On, Inc., in 1999.
Write On, Inc. is an editing and writing company in Omaha, Neb. Wendel helps authors write, edit, and publish their manuscripts. She works on memoir, health, psychology, self-help, sales and true crime books.
As her own boss, Wendel has to have good time management skills. She says she only takes on a few projects at a time and works seven days a week.
Because Wendel works from home and creates her own schedule, she has to watch her time carefully. Wendel also says she doesn't take on different styles of books at the same time such as, health and true crime, because she doesn't want to be switching her mind back and forth between two completely different topics.
Some tasks she performs include reading and evaluating books, and interviewing and meeting with clients. She sometimes has to fill out forms up to 20 pages long for publishers.
Apart from Write On, Inc., Wendel also uses her talents elsewhere. She is a regular contributor to the Omaha World-Herald's LiveWell section. Recently, Wendel interviewed three local bartenders who make craft drink mixes from locally grown produce for an article published in the World-Herald.
In addition she has developed Web content for eMedicine Health, MayoClinic.com, and other health websites. Wendel, with colleague Lisa Pelto, also teaches classes at Metropolitan Community College called "How to Write Your Book," "How to Publish Your Book" and "How to Market Your Book."
Wendel summarizes her job as 'a boring life with interesting people.' She says her favorite part of her job is meeting and interviewing interesting people. You never know when a person is going to have a great story, she says. Recently, she helped a Holocaust survivor write their story.
Wendel says her least favorite thing is getting edited by other people who don't know what they are doing.
She has plenty of advice for college students, starting with telling them to immerse themselves in opportunities. She cites her time in college as an example in the late '60s and early '70s when many college students were activists involved in political upheaval such as the Vietnam War.
Without practical experience, she says, students will drown when they leave college. Don't drown.
Grand Island columnist: Editing can be tool for better storytelling
Reece Ristau
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Growing up, George Ayoub wanted to be Walter Cronkite.
In those days, everyone did, Ayoub said. He wasn't sure if he wanted to be in journalism, but he admired Cronkite's command of language.
Ayoub is a senior writer at the Grand Island Independent. His desire to be a wordsmith is infused into his philosophy on editing.
"I'm really into storytelling," Ayoub said. "Some editors probably edit so things are incredibly tight. I want it to be tight, but it has to tell a good story and as a whole it has to work. Sometimes, you can shorten a story and then at the end it doesn't work as a whole thing."
Ayoub's love for stories stems back to the path that led him to the Independent. He graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with degrees in broadcasting and English. He taught English for 10 years before moving to Los Angeles to try his hand at screenwriting.
When that didn't pan out, Ayoub came back to Nebraska. He started writing columns and began his career at the Grand Island Independent in 1998. Since then, he's been a copy editor, editorial-page editor and columnist. He has worked on podcasts and special projects and estimates having written 3,500 columns.
"When you get to be a dinosaur, you've done everything," he said.
Ayoub said one problem in modern journalism is social media allowing anyone to be a "reporter."
"A lot of people think they're journalists because they tweet something out," Ayoub said. "They're not in my mind. The process I'm comfortable with is the slower process where you do reporting and it's edited. Our first responsibility is to get it right."
Even so, Ayoub said, embracing the ever-changing field is important for young reporters.
"I would embrace (social media) as much as I can," he said. "Find a way to use it to tell stories. Understand how what appears in the paper in morning can be complemented on social media throughout the day and understand the balance between those two things."
While Ayoub thinks students need to embrace technology, learning the basics is also important, he said. Ayoub is a voracious reader and a self-taught columnist. He writes and reads often and said students should do the same.
"If you love to write, journalism is still a pretty good gig if you like to tell stories," Ayoub said.
Introducing readers to a young autistic girl is one story that Ayoub said was rewarding to report. He wrote a feature on her and did a follow-up story a year later. Ayoub said it's experiences like that that will stick with him forever.
Through his time as an editor and reporter, Ayoub has met everyone from Tom Osborne to President George W. Bush. But, Ayoub said, it's not these stories he values most.
"There are people that aren't famous with great stories," he said. "Everybody's got some sort of cool story you can tell."
FlyWheel content market coordinator says be confident
By Anna Rosenlof
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Bridget McQuillan, content market coordinator at FlyWheel, is a great example of why being versatile is important when working in journalism.
Although she was a journalism major and knew the basics, it was her ability to work with video that helped her land a job at FlyWheel, a WordPress hosting company built specifically for designers, freelancers and creative agencies.
McQuillan graduated from Creighton University in 2012. Initially, she thought she was going to work as a newspaper journalist, but as journalism began to change rapidly, she realized there was more than just traditional newspaper work.
She had always enjoyed photography as a hobby and decided to take some classes outside of traditional journalism courses, where she gained even more interest for photography and videography.
"I also picked up a major in graphic design because I realized that would be more marketable than just journalism," she said in a phone interview.
McQuillan's position as content market coordinator involves: running social media and the company's blog, producing videos, taking pictures and dealing with customers. She is primarily in charge of the creative and marketing work for the company. Working for a really small team allows her to use a lot of her skills.
McQuillan does a lot of self-editing because of the small size of her team. As the main writer, she checks most of the work she or any of her team members produce to make sure everything is correct before it is posted on the Internet. She said, "it's really important when it comes to things like tweets. Always reread before the tweet is sent out."
McQuillan started interning at FlyWheel shortly after she graduated and was eventually was hired full time.
Each day at work is different than the last, McQuillan said. Every week she sets what the social media plan will be, writes two or three blog posts, produces a video and answers questions with customers on Twitter.
She enjoys the environment and people she works with at FlyWheel. With a small team, McQuillan says,"I have a lot of freedom to do what I want because they trust me and I can be very creative at my job."
Her broad skills come in handy because "when you have a small team, you have to work with what you have."
McQuillan's advice for students is to "be open to all kinds of types of journalism; not just necessarily writing and writing for a newspaper."
Be confident about what you are doing and go off the deeper path and find ways to use your skills.
Some of McQuillan's work can be found on her website.
Star Tribune editor enjoys the changing world of journalism
By Josh Skluzacek
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
When you've been doing a job for almost 35 years, it's likely you have seen everything.
But that's not true in journalism.
Howard Sinker, digital sports editor at the Minneapolis Star Tribune, embraces that aspect of his job.
Although it can be frustrating, Sinker said it's also very cool that just when you think you have it all figured out, something changes.
Sinker, who admittedly took an unconventional route to get to where he's at, believes that the staff's attitude and understanding have helped the Star Tribune grow into one of the leading newspapers in the region.
After graduating from Macalester College, a private liberal arts school in St. Paul, Minnesota, and originally being unsure of what he wanted to make a career in, Sinker had a reporting fellowship in Indianapolis that intensified his desire to write. Soon after that, the Star Tribune hired him to cover high school sports. After some switching between news and sports and almost 30 years of service, he was offered the digital sports editing job where he's remained for the past five years.
In an interview, Sinker described his journey as a "succession of lucky breaks," and said, even to this day, "I'm still totally floored I get to do this." Although he did like covering politics and higher education, this job was a perfect fit for him.
As a 30-year veteran at the Star Tribune, Sinker has been through good and bad. He has seen the Star Tribune become a regional leader, something he takes great pride in.
"We've been through a bad time in the industry … and now we've emerged as an industry leader."
He's especially proud of an online project on the greatest moments at the Metrodome that he and his staff completed.
Sinker knows how quickly things can change, though, and recognizes "the only way to continue thriving is to keep changing."
He enjoys the fact that every day is different, which is why he's never really considered leaving the Star Tribune for anywhere else.
"I've had a chance to do dramatically different things at the Star Tribune, so it's comparable to changing jobs."
The great part about becoming an editor, though, was the fact that it allowed him to have a better family life.
Reporting means you're traveling or at the editor's mercy, so switching to editing allowed him to be more involved with his children's activities, Sinker said.
Sinker has a lot to share with young journalists, and he talked about what he would look for if he were hiring a someone new.
"I want to see good reporting skills … and a variety of writing skills," he said.
Sinker said he probably wouldn't hire a sports reporter who hasn't done news because covering news offers more variety and teaches many different skills.
As far as the editing world, Sinker said he believes journalists are becoming much better at self-editing, mainly out of necessity.
"There are less people to edit things, so writers have to take more responsibility," he said.
Sinker also acknowledged that sometimes stories simply don't have time to be edited in certain situations, making it the writer's job to edit his or her work. It's more important to have that ability today. Doing a good job helps the public maintain a high level of trust in what you're reporting.
That's why, Sinker said, although it's important to be quick, "being accurate and providing context is the most important thing."
Focus on that if you want to succeed — something Sinker understands well.
Longtime editor switches profession to give back to community
By Griffith Swidler
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Kathy Steinauer Smith was an accomplished newspaper editor when she switched careers to work at a non-profit organization.
"I remember telling my mom after working in newspapers for a couple years, 'I wish my job was more important, I wish my work was more impacting,'" she said.
Now as the community investment manager at Woods Charitable Fund in Lincoln, Neb., it is.
The fund helps nonprofit organizations in the region. She and her three colleagues, "basically just give money away."
The fund gives away roughly $1.5 million a year to about 20 nonprofit organizations. Smith works as the middleman between the nonprofits and fund board members who approve the donations. Her job is to put into writing, exactly how the money will be used by each organization and how much is appropriate to give to one organization.
She has to be able to make connections and really piece things together from scratch and then follow it through until the end. And that, she said, isn't too different from what she did as an editor.
She worked as an editor at several papers, mostly in the West. Her first job out of college was at the Iowa City Press-Citizen in Iowa. But next, she and her journalist husband moved to Visalia, Calif., to work at the Visalia Times-Delta.
After moving again to work at the San Bernardino County Sun in San Bernardino, Calif., the couple moved to the Reno Gazette-Journal in Nevada. Finally, they come back to their roots and returned to Nebraska, where they had graduated from college, to work at the Lincoln Journal Star.
"I always knew I wanted to be an editor, I always loved editing," Smith said. "I just loved going into a story and making it better. Especially when you are in a newsroom where you work with a pool of people and just have those relationships."
After layoffs in the mid-2000s and the Journal Star's buyout a couple of years earlier, Smith decided it was time for a career switch.
Her husband had already left the newsroom for a communications job with more normal hours. "And then I worked all these weird hours," she said, "and after a couple of years of that we decided maybe it was time to switch it up."
Smith wanted to make a difference and truly help out her community. Newspapers didn't allow her to do as much as she would have liked.
"One thing that always bothered me was how in journalism there is this whole idea that you shouldn't get involved in your community for the sake of conflict of interest," Smith said, "Within the last few years I really hated that. I wanted to support the things I support and wanted to play a role in my community."
After moving to the fund in 2012, she noticed her journalism and editing experience paying off. "An editor really has to be someone who sees the bigger picture," Smith said.
In her new job, she takes pages of notes on one organization and then compiles her information into a short summary almost as a journalist would. Without an editor, Smith has to look over every detail and understand the larger picture too.
She traced her career's success back to hard work and what she learned as a journalism student at University of Nebraska-Lincoln, "I really do think that my J-school background gave me a broad education and a sort of liberal arts view of things," she said. "It gave me skills that really help with where I am at now."
One thing she misses about her old job is knowing everything going on in town and nationally. "I feel a little out of touch now that I am not working at a newspaper," she said. "And I thought I would miss it more than I do, but I still feel like I am doing something I enjoy."
As for anybody unsure about what they want to do with their lives, Smith said experimentation is the key.
"Just try lots and lots of different stuff. You might not truly know what you are interested in until you try lots of different things."

The earthquake that devastated Chile Saturday morning also jolted Los Alamos.
With growing apprehension Chuck Pergler and Mary Skarra reported that their daughter Isis Skarra-Pergler was still missing Monday.
She was traveling with her boyfriend Joe Stoffers when the 8.8-magnitude quake occurred. The couple was believed to be camping on a beach at that time, most likely in an impacted area.
SANTA FE — A little bit of everything was thrown into the legislative hopper to get a balanced budget passed this week, as lawmakers began a special session Monday.
The new mixture, approved by Democratic Party leaders last week, includes tax increases and spending cuts in a package of nine bills identified in Governor Richardson's proclamation. The announcement that defined the agenda was issued shortly before the Senate opened for business at about 2 p.m., followed within the hour by the House.
Both the Democrats and Republicans would do well to listen to what the Tea Partiers are saying. They might seem like a group of angry people, but they have real issues. They are concerned about jobs, income, wars and sense that Washington doesn't care about them. They are also concerned about same sex marriage, abortion and that man in the White House.
I would like to respond to a long list of complaints (Monitor, Feb. 17) by one of the sponsors of two petitions that were rejected by the county council.
The petitions were appropriately rejected because they did not conform with a well-known principle of law governing the way questions are to be presented to voters on a ballot – i.e., no "logrolling:" Each question presented must be a single issue.
The question is not whether history will be debated. If history is kept, the debate may be one of substance. If history fades out, the debate will be "sound and fury."
Keeping history strong and healthy is the goal of the proposed Manhattan Project National Historical Park, or some form of one.

The Los Alamos Hilltopper boys and girls track and field teams opened their seasons 2009-10 seasons Saturday in Rio Rancho.
Los Alamos' boys finished third in Saturday's Chili Quad, while the Hilltopper girls, the defending Class AAAA champions, were second in the team standings.
Saturday, the Hilltopper girls picked up 116 total points, placing them behind Rio Rancho's 157.5.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Personal spending jumped by a larger amount than expected in January but Americans' incomes barely budged. The weak income growth could depress spending in the months ahead, acting as a further drag on the fragile economic recovery.
The Commerce Department said that personal spending rose by 0.5 percent in January, slightly better than expected. But incomes edged up only 0.1 percent, significantly lower than the 0.4 percent gain that economists had expected.
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico will pay higher taxes when they buy goods and services, including food, under a budget-balancing package proposed by Democratic legislative leaders.
The House and Senate will consider the budget package, including more than $200 million in tax increases, during a special session that convenes Monday.

ABaC Review
Chef Jordi Cruz, the youngest chef ever to win a Michelin star and author of two books on his culinary philosophy and techniques, is known for his devotion to impeccable raw materials and his talent for combining creativity and tradition. The tasting menu is the only reasonable choice here: trust this chef to give you the best he has (and any attempt at economy is roughly analagous to quibbling about deck chairs on the Titanic). The hypercreative sampling has ranged from tartare of oysters with green-apple vinegar, fennel, and seawort to veal royal with concentrate of Pedro Ximénez sherry and textures of apples in cider. Connected to an exquisite five-star boutique hotel of the same name, the dining room, awash in beige and white linens with dark wooden floors in wide planks, delivers a suitably elegant backdrop.

The Origin of Species (Mentor Series)
According to Wikipedia: "Charles Robert Darwin (12 February 1809 - 19 April 1882) was an English naturalist. After becoming eminent among scientists for his field work and inquiries into geology, he proposed and provided scientific evidence that all species of life have evolved over time from one or a few common ancestors through the process of natural selection. The fact that evolution occurs became accepted by the scientific community and the general public in his lifetime, while his theory of natural selection came to be widely seen as the primary explanation of the process of evolution in the 1930s, and now forms the basis of modern evolutionary theory. In modified form, Darwin?s scientific discovery remains the foundation of biology, as it provides a unifying logical explanation for the diversity of life."

- Extreme Guide to Parenting The Ultimate Soccer Mom Thursdays 9:30/8:30c
Tom keeps telling us how average the food was on this episode and how the contestants are playing it safe and how "Deviled Eggs" are not going to get you anywhere on Top Chef. The fact is Tom and the other judges are telling the contestants that is exactly what they are looking for by constantly rewarding Ariane with victories for making the simplest and safest food. Let's trace it back to tomato and watermelon on the morning show, turkey to the Foos, lamb to the ladies, and cauliflower to Martha. All of the chefs are trying to figure the game that is Top Chef out and the judges are completely confusing them.
Now last week we picked the chefs we thought would make it to the finals. This week lets pick who is going to get sent packing next time. I read Andy Cohen's blog and he mentioned that two chefs will be sent home next time, so let's pick them.
I say: Melissa and Eugene
Malarkey Ranking Sweet and Simple:
1. Hosea: Takes the top spot from Fabio who is struggling.
2. Fabio: I still think he is going to get back on track and I loved the fact that his grandmother is cussing Martha Stewart.
3. Stefan: He's really good, a handful yes, but really good.
4. Jeff: Crazy salad with lots of ingredients, reminds me of myself.

Are you a TV Fanatic?

I am not too sure on what to think on Juliette opening her eyes.
On one hand it might be because of what Adalind did and what Adalind wants.
On other hand it might be a side reaction Adalind did not guess would happen. We did see that there's something fishy about Juliette from time to time. Hank on other hand is going paranoid. Hopefully he gets stuff explained to him and recovers. The very fact that he has no idea on what the hell did he see is what is driving him crazy.
overall a GREAT finale. Can't wait for S2.
So I guess Nick and Juliette will have to fall in love all over again which would technically bring her memories back? That could be a fascinating storyline.
And Nick's mother clearly has her own agenda since she clearly did not leave town.
Also what the hell is Renard? I am betting on some sort human/demon hybrid or demon/grimm hybrid.
Either way I smell Angel Season Two level of angst in store for this season.
Uhh, this show has improved so much since pilot.asadsdasfasdasdfas.

Welcome to Queenstown Country Lodge
Amanda and I welcome you to our website.
Thanks for making that click and we hope you like what you find here.
We offer you friendly personalized luxury lodge accommodation on a lifestyle country farm close to Queenstown.
Queenstown Country Lodge is our dream. After working for Real Journeys, Managing Wilderness Lodge Arthur's Pass and skippering/hosting a boat for an American couple in the Mediterranean, Bahamas and USA, we decided to create our own country lodge near Queenstown, New Zealand, offering luxury bed and breakfast accommodation in a beautiful rural setting surrounded by spectacular mountains.
Located in New Zealand's Southern Lakes region, our luxury lodge is close to the award winning vineyards, activities and attractions of the Southern Lakes, Fiordland and Central Otago areas and just far enough from Queenstown to ensure you enjoy the peace and tranquility of the New Zealand country side.
Queenstown Country Lodge is set on 5 hectares (11 acres) of large secluded gardens and farmland and surrounded by mountains. We have combined the warmth and welcoming atmosphere of a country Inn with the comfort and class of luxury boutique accommodation.
Whether you are relaxing in the guest lounge by the log fire after a day skiing, rejuvenating in the garden spa pool after a walk in the mountains, sharing a glass of Central Otago wine before a wonderful meal or later on in the eveing being guided across the spectacular and fascinating southern sky by John, Queenstown Country lodge will meet your every needs.
Make the Lodge home while you explore Queenstown, one of the truly wonderful holiday destinations in the world. The mountains and lakes around Queenstown are paradise to skiers, trekkers, walkers, mountain bikers, photographers and fishermen from all over the world.
"We would love the opportunity to host you at Queenstown Country Lodge."
Special Offer
As most of our guests stay for at least 3 nights we would like to make this option more attractive.
Queenstown Country Lodge recently gained the 2014 Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence. This reinforces the Lodge's No 1 ranking (out of 44) for B&Bs/Inns in the Queenstown region.
However, the BIG news for us is that we have gained the top 5 Star Grading for Boutique and Lodge after a Qualmark/Tourism New Zealand evaluation visit. We also achieved a Silver Enviro Award We are both really thrilled with the outcome of this independent validation.
In the Depths of Winter.
One big big attraction of the Queenstown area is the 4 distinctive seasons we have. Gone is the lush green of spring, the browns of a dry summer and the beautiful golds, reds and copper of fall. Snow covers the mountains, harsh frosts welcome us each morning, followed by lovely clear blue crisp days. Life is good. We now have the Lodge fire on each night and a rich red wine at room temperature is the order of the day rather than a cool Sauvignon Blanc. We are working for Tourism New Zealand at present so have closed the Lodge for a couple of months. If you are interested in staying do check out Availability on this website.
It is still a busy time here with great bookings for the 2014-15 season and of course the daily feeding out to the 40 sheep. (Check out recent photos on our Facebook page) They are wintering well on a combination of hay and grass and we are all looking forward to mid-September when the first of our lambs should be born. We get given little orphan lambs to bottle feed and raise from local farmers, so guests staying at Queenstown Country Lodge have the opportuity to help feed them. These demanding little fellas need fed 4 times a day!!!!
Queenstown is in full winter mode with snow on the mountains and the town is packed with skiers, mainly from Australia. I have had a couple of days skiing with my son and just love it up there. The cares of the world seem so far away when cruising down the slopes with spectacular 360 degree panaromic views around.
Well thats it from us. Do contact us if we can help you in any way.
Warmest regards

Helen Hunt Sparkled in Jewels by Charles Albert and London Manori at Palm Springs International Film Festival
Award winning actress Helen Hunt dazzled on red carpet at the Palm Springs International Film Festival draped in jewels by celebrity-adored designers, Charles Albert and London Manori. The "Mad About You" star paired her black halter gown with a gold cuff from Charles Albert and black gemstone earrings from London Manori. With her perfectly accessorized ensemble, the blonde beauty not only looked ultra glamourous on the red carpet, but also wowed the audience as she accepted the "Spotlight Award" on-stage later in the evening.
From early on in his Pennsylvania childhood, Charles Albert was an avid stone collector. He was fascinated by the minerals and fossils he would encounter while searching the lot behind his grandmother's backyard. Though he didn't know it at the time, those stones would define his future. As a teenager, Charles Albert was enlisted in the Army and continued his service to our country throughout the next 14 years of his life. While still in the Reserves, Charles began exploring his options in starting his own business. Shortly after graduating from The University of Scranton with a B.S. in Management and a minor in Philosophy and History, he started his company with $60 and a dream. He began selling costume jewelry and then gradually made the transition into manufacturing fine sterling silver. Within a few years of starting off on his new venture, he met his wife Beth, who would later join him in the company. Together, they would develop the company into the fashion-forward brand that it has become. Today, Charles Albert still collects rocks, like he did as a child. His collection has simply become a little bit larger. As a self-taught designer, he lets the stones take center stage with minimal silver detailing. Charles Albert has earned a reputation for designing exquisite quality art, ready to wear. Hard work, determination and a passion for his work has allowed Charles to realize his dream of creating beautiful jewelry.

S.F.'s ACT UP Ordered to Back Off,
Christopher Heredia, Chronicle Staff Writer

|Email This
2000-11-11 04:00:00 PDT San Francisco -- Five members of the AIDS dissident group ACT UP/San Francisco will be prohibited from coming within 100 yards of offices or employees of an AIDS service organization under a preliminary injunction granted this week by a San Francisco judge.
Superior Court Judge Ina Levin Gyemant's ruling stems from an April incident in which members of ACT UP were charged with assault and trespassing after getting in a scuffle at a Project Inform meeting where members were discussing the benefits of taking breaks from AIDS drugs.
According to people who witnessed the incident, ACT UP members pushed their way past security, and pelted Project Inform's founding director, Martin Delaney, and others with hard, pelletlike pills, while yelling epithets.
"We're delighted at the outcome and at the same time saddened that at this point in the AIDS epidemic we're being forced to protect our employees and constituents from violence and threats of violence," said Project Inform board president Joe Garrett.
ACT UP/San Francisco has for years been at odds with mainstream AIDS groups over its philosophy that HIV does not cause AIDS. Its members have aligned themselves with other AIDS dissidents including controversial University of California at Berkeley Professor Peter Duesberg. They operate their marijuana dispensary, maintaining that marijuana is less harmful than the side effects of the drugs.
ACT UP member Andrea Lindsay said yesterday that the group is considering appealing the ruling.
"We're disappointed that after going to great lengths to tell the truth in the courtroom, this is what the judge has decided," Lindsay said. "We still maintain that we engaged in no violence at the (April) forum."
In her ruling Gyemant said her decision was justified by past violent acts in which ACT UP members targeted, harassed and stalked officials from mainstream AIDS organizations, including a 1996 incident in which member Ronnie Burk dumped cat litter over the head of San Francisco AIDS Foundation executive direct Pat Christen.
That incident led a San Francisco judge to grant three-year restraining orders barring several members of ACT UP from coming near offices or employees of the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.
Judge Gyemant has two weeks to finalize her ruling.
ACT UP -- an acronym for AIDS Coalition To Unleash Power -- gained notoriety in the late 1980s, at the height of the AIDS epidemic by demanding lower drug prices and research for a cure. ACT UP/San Francisco splintered in the early 90s because of differences over the group's mission. Since 1994, ACT UP San Francisco has been led by a handful of HIV-positive activists who say they have been living healthy lives without medication.
In September, dozens of AIDS activists held a press conference denouncing ACT UP's tactics and calling on people with AIDS to boycott the group's marijuana dispensary.
The judge's ruling applies to ACT UP members Lindsay, David Pasquarelli, Michael Bellefountaine, Ronnie Burk and Todd Swindell.
"This is not a really big city and we don't know where most of these people live," Lindsay said. "We have no intent of being near them but their offices are four blocks from ours. This ruling is really Draconian."

I'm serving my Crock-Pot Fiesta Chicken over this tonight. I am attempting a garlicky copycat of Chipotle's Cilantro Lime Rice, but my mom does not have any limes or Real Lime juice, so I'm having to make do with limemade. I'm not sure how that will turn out, but the Fiesta Chicken will probably be too spicy for DH and maybe the sweetness of the limemade will balance it.
