But with Bush-era tax cuts set to expire at the end of 2012 and with deep defense cuts scheduled to take effect in 2013 if the joint committee fails to act, Obama set down clear lines for next year's elections. And by threatening to veto Medicare benefit cuts that aren't paired with tax increases, he raised the pressure on the committee to include revenues in its plan.
"I will not support any plan that puts all the burden for closing our deficit on ordinary Americans," he said.
The plan represents Obama's opening bid in the debate. Administration officials say he is not taking other deficit reduction measures, including a gradual increase in the eligibility age for Medicare from 65 to 67, off the table. In deficit reduction negotiations in July with Boehner that centered on raising the nation's borrowing capacity, Obama had agreed to such an age increase. But other Democrats objected loudly and said it would neutralize their criticism of a Republican plan to overhaul Medicare.
The core of the president's plan totals just over $2 trillion in deficit reduction over 10 years. It would let Bush-era tax cuts for upper income earners expire, limit deductions for wealthier filers and close loopholes and end some corporate tax breaks. It also would trim mandatory programs, including Medicare. And it would target subsidies for farmers and retirement benefits for federal employees.
Officials cast Obama's plan as his vision for deficit reduction, and distinguished it from the negotiations he had with Boehner in July as Obama sought to avoid a government default. Those talks failed, but resulted in an agreement to trim $1 trillion from government programs.
Democrats, who had warily watched as Obama negotiated with Boehner, cheered the president's tough talk on Monday.
"The president put down a marker today, and he did it in terms more forceful than we have seen from him before," said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
Key features of Obama's plan:
$1.5 trillion in new revenue, which would include about $800 billion over 10 years from repealing the Bush-era tax rates for couples making more than $250,000. It also would place limits on deductions for wealthy filers and end certain corporate loopholes and subsidies for oil and gas companies.
$580 billion in cuts in mandatory benefit programs, including $248 billion in Medicare and $72 billion in Medicaid and other health programs. Other mandatory benefit programs include farm subsidies and federal employee retirement benefits. The plan would reduce federal workers' paychecks by 1.2 percent over three years, saving the government about $21 billion over 10 years.
$430 billion in savings from lower interest payment on the national debt.
The GOP has ridiculed the war savings as gimmicky, but House Republicans included them in their budget proposal this year and Boehner had agreed to count them as savings during his debt ceiling negotiations with the president this summer.

Conference calls on ETA to make a definitive 'rejection of violence'
Tuesday 18 October 2011
Delegates at a peace conference in San Sebastian yesterday urged the Basque separatists ETA to make a definitive rejection of violence, while calling on the Spanish and French governments to open up negotiations with Western Europe's last major guerrilla group should ETA lay down their weapons for good.
ETA declared a permanent ceasefire in September 2010, and are widely rumoured to be on the point of calling a definitive end to their four-decade long armed struggle, which has claimed more than 850 lives.
Hopes are high that the peace conference – with former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, Sinn Fein's Gerry Adams and Tony Blair's former chief of staff, Jonathan Powell as headline figures – could act as a catalyst for ETA to announce its dissolution. In a five-point concluding statement read by former Irish PM Bertie Ahern, the conference also alluded to conversations "about the consequences of the struggle", the usual wording for discussions of the regrouping of convicted ETA members in prisons closer to the Basque Country.
Although the peace conference statement calls for the "rejection of violence" rather than the outright disbanding of ETA, there are widespread expectations that ETA will respond this week by at least stating the violence is over for good. Optimism that ETA's days are numbered has become more widespread after its political wing, Ekin, disbanded on 1 October, and in July ETA issued a statement saying it was prepared to "deepen the path" towards peace.
The government has made some cautious responses, most notably earlier this month when the Basque Country's Socialist premier, Patxi Lopez, said that ETA prisoners should be moved closer to their homes.
However, as of yesterday evening, ETA had not responded to the latest call to disarm, and has in the past broken previous "permanent" ceasefires, like that of 2006 which ended with a bomb exploding in Madrid airport.

Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 7 weeks – interviewed at TJX Companies in October 2012.
Interview DetailsI had applied for the position online at the end of August. I did not hear back until the beginning of September when I received a call from HR. From this point she asked some additional questions regarding my experience and background in the industry and said that she would like to move forward with a phone interview. The phone interview was set up maybe a week later and it lasted about an hour. The questions were behavioural and she asked me about my resume as expected. After waiting a few days, I was contacted and was told that they were going to move me onto the 1:1 interview in a couple of weeks. When she called she gave me feedback and some insight as to what types of questions they were going to ask. She sent me an email detailing everything and forwarded me forms to fill out. When I got to the Mississauga Office for the interview there was another candidate in the waiting room. When greeted by the HR representative, she told me that she was not going to meet with me but that I was going to sit down with another HR recruiter and a manager instead. After about an hour of q & a from both sides -being asked very similar questions as the phone interview, the recruiter advised that I should hear back from them by Friday of that week. Needless to say, I was reading other reviews here about the interview process and after not hearing back on Friday, I did not hold my breath. Despite doing the best I could and having the skills and experience required for the position I guess I was not a good fit after all. Confirmation of this came via telephone by the HR recruiter who conducted my first telephone interview. This time she was not able to give me any feedback from the 1:1 interview. She did say that I presented myself well, however they were not going to move me along through the interview process.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at TJX Companies in January 2012.
Interview DetailsPhone interview is the first step. They go through your resume and what you expect in a career i.e. what made you select this company, where do you see yourself in future etc. A lady did the interview and she was quite direct with the questions, wouldn't say helpful or even trying to make me feel better as the entire process felt a little robotic. Questions asked are things expected, they pretty much want you to go over what you did in your previous work and how it relates to the position you're applying to. They're also quite insistent on excel skills and you need to back it up with examples. I was told that the entire hiring process was in four steps: initial phone call, interview with the hr, interview with your future boss and the final interview.

Interview DetailsInterview was one round of a one-way video interview, fair and not too difficult.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks – interviewed at TJX Companies.
Interview DetailsI was initially contacted via phone by a talent acquisition manager to set up a time in the near future to discuss the opportunity. We originally talked on either a Thursday or Friday and the phone interview was scheduled for the following Monday. She was very accommodating and worked around my schedule since I am currently employed. The interview lasted about 45 minutes and was a typical interview except right off the bat she gave a detailed description of the company and exactly what the position was all about which I really liked. She said that the process would consist of about 4 interviews and if I didn't hear back in two weeks to follow-up with her. I emailed her in about 2 weeks and she called me less than an hour after I emailed her. All in all, I'd say this was one of the best interviews I've ever had.
Interview Questions- Very typical interview. Tell me about yourself, how would you go about persuading people to follow your ideas, etc. Answer Question

Edited release from Churchill Downs
The return to competition by WinStar Farm's previously unbeaten Awesome Humor on Wednesday at Churchill Downs did not turn out as well as hoped, so trainer Elliott Walden will take a "wait and see" approach on a game plan that had been pointing the filly toward the $250,000 Acorn (gr. I) at Belmont Park on June 6.The daughter of Distorted Humor, racing for the first time since she underwent surgery late last summer to remove bone chips from both front ankles, finished a non-threatening fourth as she faced a strong group of older fillies and mares in a six-furlong allowance race on Wednesday at Churchill Downs. Awesome Humor broke slowly and made a mild bid on far turn, but she never threatened the front running winner Love Talkin at any pointSent off as the 1-2 favorite, Awesome Humor finished fourth under Pat Day, beaten 14 lengths in her first career setback. Walden said Thursday she appeared to come out of the race well, but the comeback effort was clearly disappointing to the trainer of the filly who had scored victories in the Spinaway (gr. I) and Adirondack (gr. II) at Saratoga and the Debutante (gr. III) at Churchill Downs before her surgery.
"She got a lot of dirt in her face and that was new to her," Walden said. "I think that that was part of it -- at lease I hope that was part of it. She didn't break real sharp. We'll regroup and go to the next one."
But there's some question as to what that next race for Awesome Humor may be. The Acorn had been Walden's objective for the filly as she trained for her comeback through the late winter and early spring. But Walden said he's "not sure" at this point whether he will stick with that plan.Awesome Humor did run into a strong group of veteran sprinters, a fact underscored by Love Talkin's sizzling winning time of 1.08.34. The Mike Tomlinson-trained 4-year-old daughter of Talkin Man won by 2 3/4-lengths under jockey Jon Court.

The Window Cleaner
A short muisc video based on the classic song "The Window Cleaner" sung by George Formby
4.34 / 5.00 3,135 ViewsI haven't made any new animation in a while, but here's something I made this week, animating the phone message of a kid making up a story about being sucked into a video game. Let me know what you think!
You both did a very commendable job! That kid's got talent, hope he calls you again!
This was epic! The monster was the best part! The part where the kids peed themselves was hilarious! If I were them, I would've just ate a growth pellet, drink some extra strength super power juice and go to a shoe store and buy some razor sharp cleats with steel spikes and crush the monster like a nut!
I watched it before I read the description/ The animation was perfect. Just went great. Only thing I had to say that was bad was the sound quality but then I red the description so 5/5
not bad, its been a while since i saw one of your animations.
and im glad i did.

Report Roundup
High School Dropouts
If all students in the class of 2006 had graduated on time, the nation's economy would have gained an additional $309 billion in income over their lifetimes, concludes a report by the Washington-based Alliance for Excellent Education.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, high school graduates in 2004 earned almost $10,000 more than those who did not graduate from high school. Also, dropouts are more likely to be unemployed, go to prison, and seek government assistance—all factors that drain the economy.

KųPPEN Women's Brinsen Waterproof Winter Boots
bad fit
The heal is all wrong to wear for a long time. I sent them back!
January 24, 2015
They keep my feet very warm. I wear them all time.
I am glad I bought them. I wish they were made in the USA though. I have been trying to buy more USA made products than any where else. But I am glad they keep my feet very warm. I am always cold. They do, do the job very well...:)
January 23, 2015
Warm and toasty
These boots are warm and toasty. I'm glad I ordered a size up because of the fur inside, they tend to run small. Even with a size up I cannot wear socks with them. When I wear them I have to be committed to wearing them as it takes longer to tie than zip. Other than that, they are cute!
January 23, 2015
These boots are warm & comfortable.
They run small, so if you normally wear a 9, the 10 fits well. But that's the biggest size available. I wore them on a cold day in California, but I'm looking forward to testing them in Colorado.
January 23, 2015
Super Warm!
These boots are great! Definitely order a size bigger than you normally wear because they do fit small. The only issue I really have with them is that they take a long time to get on and off because the laces go all the way up the front and there isn't a zipper.
January 21, 2015
Love these boots!
They are warm, comfortable to wear, and easy to put on! My only complaint is they were sent to me with the security tag still attached!
January 18, 2015
warm boots
I do like these books, they keep my feet warm in wet snow. They do run small...
January 17, 2015
Love the waterproofing
These boots do run small, I ordered a size bigger based on other reviews and they fit like a glove. They are stiff at first but after a few days I was able to break them in. I have been wearing them in our arctic weather here in Ohio and they have provided great protection in snow, slush, and water. My only complaint is my toes still feel cold even though these boots are supposed to have 400g insulation as opposed to the 200g in most of the cheaper boots offered.
January 14, 2015
great shoe
My daughter loves it and says it keeps her feet very warm.
January 14, 2015
runs small ; not available above size 10;
I loved these boots; bought them for my neice; but two things; I tried on several pairs of the size 10 and 9.5; each pair was a bit different. I had to buy to pairs of size 10's to get two that felt the same. Ultimately they didn't fit her and they are not available in sizes larger than 10. So they are going back. They were very cute and functional. It is too bad they don't have larger sizes.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Some big food makers are getting serious about making sure farmers grow crops in ways that minimize damage to water, soil and the environment, according to a report released Wednesday that called for more companies to demand sustainable supplies.
Companies including Walmart, Coca-Cola, General Mills, and Unilever have taken steps to work with suppliers on environmental improvements, the report said, but added that measurable goals and firm deadlines are necessary to make real improvements.
The report from Ceres, a Boston-based nonprofit network of investors, companies and public interest groups, focused on climate change's effect on corn production. It said farmers and the companies they supply must address drought and other weather extremes, an increase in groundwater depleting irrigation, and more fertilizer use.
"Climate change and pressures on water supplies pose financial risk to our agricultural industry but it's not just the corn belt's problem," said Brooke Barton, co-author of the report. "Companies that depend on U.S. corn have a big role to play in sending market signals that these issues matter," she said.
General Mills, Coca-Cola and Unilever, have all been working with Ceres and have adopted sustainability programs setting specific goals that suppliers and farmers must meet if they want to continue selling ingredients to the corporations.
The report calls on companies to establish goals to reduce their environmental impact, develop procurement contracts that require sustainably grown crops, and make efforts to identify areas of high water stress, groundwater pollution and overuse of fertilizer.
Coca-Cola announced last year it would buy all of its agricultural ingredients from sustainable sources by 2020, including the corn used for its high-fructose corn syrup.
"We know how to make beverages. We don't necessarily know how to grow corn but we do have a good opportunity to influence our suppliers," Jon Radtke, the company's water resources sustainability manager, said after the report was released. "We have shared, obviously, our sustainable ag guidelines principles with suppliers and asked them to meet those and they've developed a plan to implement those over the coming years so we can meet that 100 percent by 2020."
Ceres also recommends that companies substitute other grains for corn where environmental benefits are well-demonstrated.
General Mills, the maker of Cheerios, Wheaties and Green Giant vegetables, began a sustainability program in 2005 and has increasingly been providing money and support to improve the use of water and fertilizer.

Normally I don't have a strong opinion on all of these guys - it just so happens I watched Bray play a lot - He's basically Matt Cassel w/ a little more heat behind his passes. He completely loses his mind upon any sort of pressure.
His former offensive coordinator Norv Turner once said "Alex Smith throws the best deep ball I have ever coached." Critics, doubters, and even 49ers fans and Chiefs fans who doubt Smith's ability to throw down field need to realize that Smith plays a style of quarterbacking that won Montana 4 super bowls in the 1980's before fantasy football and Madden video games were invented.... and THAT style wins games.
