The right thing for border agents
I was glad to see that George W. Bush commuted the prison sentences of former Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean. And frankly, I was a bit surprised I was glad.
I never had much sympathy for Ramos or Compean, disgraced law enforcement officers who were convicted of shooting a Mexican drug smuggler and then lying about it. From studying the facts, hearing the arguments of the agents' supporters, and interviewing U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, whose office tried the case, I'm convinced the pair broke the law and that they were justly convicted and sentenced. Ramos received 11 years and Compean got 12. Both will be released on March 20.
Bush was also convinced that the men were guilty. That's why he didn't pardon them.
Meanwhile, those who want to defend the agents have to ignore the law and several inconvenient facts. Ramos and Compean said in media interviews that the smuggler, Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, had a gun, but they never mentioned the weapon in their official reports or to fellow agents who arrived on the scene; Compean fired off 14 rounds from an elevated position, which would have left him vulnerable if, in fact, Aldrete-Davila had a gun; and the jury heard from Ramos, Compean and Aldrete-Davila and found the drug smuggler more believable than the agents.
In a stunning display of situational ethics, Ramos and Compean became instant superheroes to anti-immigration activists. This crowd turned a wrongful shooting (what cops call a "bad shoot") and attempts to hide it by disposing of evidence (what most of us call a "cover-up") into a cause célèbre. For the activists – some of whom also want to end legal immigration from Latin America and Asia because what worries them are demographic projections that whites will soon be in the minority – the world is simple: The country is being invaded, and it's the job of Border Patrol agents to stop the invasion. Ergo, these agents deserve carte blanche to do as they please even if it violates federal law – the same rule of law the activists claim to care so much about when they demand that we seal the border. And when the federal government took up a prosecution against the former agents, the activists contended, it was to appease the Mexican government.
The narrative of poor, defenseless Border Patrol agents victimized by politics and railroaded into prison was a convenient fantasy. Afraid of the cultural footprint left by immigrants, anti-illegal immigration activists feel they're losing control of their country. Pushing for the release of Ramos and Compean was a way to get it back.
The facts were never in doubt. On Feb. 17, 2005, Ramos and Compean were on patrol on the U.S.-Mexico border near Fabens, Texas, when they spotted a van. When they approached, they discovered Aldrete-Davila, who ran toward the Mexican side of the border. The agents opened fire. Aldrete-Davila was hit, but he got away. No gun was found but the van was loaded with marijuana. It was only after another Border Patrol agent heard the story and pieced together what happened that Aldrete-Davila was located and the agents were prosecuted – to the chagrin of congressional Republicans, border vigilantes and right-wing talk-show hosts.

Does anyone have a home made ground hog repellant recipe?
We have large green tomatoes that they are eating like candy. The shoots of my pickles that are coming out of an enclosed area are getting eaten off. Is there a home made recipe that anyone knows works? I have a home made spray recipe for deer which contains eggs, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, etc that works pretty well for deer. But last year it did not seem to help the groundhog problem. Everyone here knows the work that goes into tending and making a garden. It all goes to waste when these greedy animals come to dine. I love nature, but this is too much!
Groundhogs / woodchucks are strong hungry muscular aggressive rodents. The only two ways to stop them are impressive fencing and shooting. If you are in competition for the same food, and you need that food, you will know what to do. Other methods are not effective.
There are not too many repellents that will deter woodchucks. And for vegetables, nothing. I feel your pain, every year I battle woodchucks, finally we put a 6 ft chain link fence around our veggie garden. For my flower beds, I use a repellent that I think is called Woochuck Stop, its in a red bottle, HD sells it and other places I'm sure. Thats the only one that worked for me, but I wouldn't use it on food items. Despite my 6 ft fence, I was finding my kale and cucumber plants eaten, couldn't figure it out. Then, I went out there early in the morning and found a tiny baby bunny in the garden, once he spotted me, he was able to squeeze right through the fencing and ran off. So, tonights project is to install chicken wire along the perimeter of the chain link fencing. Hopefully that will keep the little critter out, cute though he may be, the veggies are off limits. I'd recommend a fence or a dog.
If you are wanting to permanently get rid of the whistle pig: watermelon bubble gum. I know. I thought my local feed store guru was trying to make me look stupid or see how gullible I was. Throw some pieces in the whole with one unwrapped he said. They can't digest it and it kills them he said. I did the live trap and release thing and of course they kept coming back from 5 miles away. Alas, I tried the bubblegum thing. Did it work? I don't know. What I DO know is I don't have any ground hogs. Can I say with 100% certainty that the gum killed them. No. Can I say with 100% certainty it was something else? No. All I know is I don't have whistle pigs anymore and I don't care how they came to be no more. But it has to be watermelon flavored apparently.

"I LOVE my invitations. It was easy to customize. Another thing I truly loved was the proofing. A representative called to make sure what they thought could have been an error wasn't. I loved the quality and the print work. Shipping came earlier than anticipated. I give it two thumbs up."
"Hard to find a card that works for twin graduates. This one was perfect. Took their professional senior photos and popped them in the front, the diagonal really served to separate and make them both important. Loved the picture availability on the back which allowed me to put in photo of the two together as babies and in their college sweatshirts. Had to be brief in my language on the front, but that made for a better card. Received many compliments as to the quality!"
"Have received many compliments about how nice this card was. We were impressed with the quality and design. Will use tinyprints again."
"The website was easy to use, they were very quick to ship and the cards are beautiful. I will definitely order again in the future. Thank you!!"

A little piece of heaven.
This property is beautiful. Having never been to Arizona before, this property and golf community far exceeded my expectations. The house is very open and welcoming. Great for couples and families. Each bedroom has its own bath! The property is beautifully landscaped and well maintained. The golf club has a great exercise room and amazing pool/spa. The club restaurant has prime rib on Tuesday nights so make your reservations in advance. The view of Four Peaks is breathtaking. We saw wild pigs, coyotes, and a baby mountain lion. We ate at the All American Sports Grill in Fountain Hills. They have the best coleslaw and banana flambé desert. I would highly recommend this property but I would like to keep it my little secret :)
Wonderful home
My husband and I stayed in this wonderful home for two weeks. Everything in this home from the furnishings and amenities to the unbelievable views made our vacation exceptional. We loved every minute of our stay and hope to return soon.

I pray, pray, PRAY that short labors run in my family and this is the ONE thing I inherited from my mother. My mom said that her labors with my older sister and me lasted about six or seven hours (maybe even only five). From what my mom can remember, my sister's labor with her daughter was no more than six hours. She said that my sister's ex called about 6:30 and by noon when they were done with church (it was an Easter Sunday and both of my neice's grandfathers are pastors, so they definately couldn't leave) they knew my sister had had a girl. (My sister and her ex wanted to wait to find out.)

I am trying to simplify sums of a few LaguerreL polinomials of different n using the identities in the function advisor such as recurrsion relations. How does one go about in using the FunctionAdvisor identities when trying to simplify expressions containing orthogonal polynomials?
I am trying to simplify equation 18 using equations 8 and 9. It should look a little like equation 21, but instead I get the results in equations 19 and 20. I tried using different substituions, but algsubs gets the closest answer. A few terms are going to zero after the substitution.
When I substitute Z(X) then Zbar(X) terms vanish, and visa versa.
Initialize the metric and tetrad
Verification of Tetrad
I will try to verify the tetrad from (Kerr and Schild (1965)). However, the tetrad given in the paper seems to have the third tetrad with the wrong sign. I changed the sign and get the correct verification,
For equation 2.8 we get the following:
Now we replicate eqn 2.16. These are the conditions for e[4,mu] to be geodesic and shear-free. The outputs are eqn 3.5.
Now we can define the rotation coefficients associated with rotation and expansion z = theta - i omega
We now show that the tetrad vectors are propogated parallel along each curve of the congruence of null geodesics which have e[4,~mu] as tangents.
We now use the tetrad form of the Ricci tensor. In order to use this in Maple we need to create a Ricci Tensor Tetrad function.
The geodesic and shear free condition given by Lemma 1 in (Goldberg and Sachs (1962)). Kerr uses the fourth tetrad instead of the third so we need to modify the Ricci tensor conditions. The equations (2) - (5) enforce the first Lemma.
Notice that none of the previous Ricci conditions can be used to solve for H. We can use the remaining field equations to find the partial differential equations necessary to derive the metric.

Hello all,
I'm experiencing an aggravating issue when substituting numerical values into a symbolic expression. I'm using Maple 14. I believe the issue may be related to floating point precision. Either way, it's ruining my life. If anyone has a solution or a work-around, I'd be most grateful. The following code reproducibly produces the anomolay on my machine:
vx := Vector( 4, symbol=x ):
# A numerator and a denominator. They're equal.num := (x[1]*x[3]+x[1]*x[4]+x[2]*x[3]+x[2]*x[4])^2:den := ((x[1]+x[2])^2*(x[3]+x[4])^2):
# Prints true...evalb(num=den);
# This equals zeroy := 0.1 - 0.1*num/den;
# Prints 0...simplify(y);
# Prints 0...simplify(subs(x[3]=1,x[4]=3,0.1-0.1*num/den));
# Prints 0...simplify(subs(x[3]=1,x[4]=3,y));
# Prints 0.1 x 10^-10 !?!?simplify(subs(x[3]=1,x[4]=2,y));

Why this simplifes:
z1:=n*(Int(cos(x)^(n-2), x))-(Int(cos(x)^(n-2), x));
But when adding an extra term to z1, it no longer simplfies the above any more:
z2 := cos(x)^(n-1)*sin(x)+n*(Int(cos(x)^(n-2), x))-(Int(cos(x)^(n-2), x));
You can see the second term, which is z1, was not simplfied any more.
Why? And how would one go about simplifying z2 such that the second term gets simplfies as with z1, but while using z2 expression. It seems simplify stopped at first term and did not look ahead any more?
Maple 18.02, windows.
I use the VectorCalculus package to calcutate derivative formula for geometric functions, and met difficulity simplifying the result expression.
For example, I define some vectors P, S, V like below:
P:=<Px, Py, Pz>, S:=<Sx, Sy, Sz>, V:=<Vx, Vy, Vz>
then define an intermediate variable Q:=P - S,
then define a function d:= sqrt(DotProduct(Q, Q)-(DotProuct(Q,V))^2)
by calculating the function's derivative w.r.t Px I got a very complex result expression:
dpx:=1/2 * (2Px - 2Sx - 2 ( (Px - Sx) Vx + (Py - Sy) Vy + (Pz - Sz)Vz )Vx ) / (sqrt( (Px-Sx)^2 + (Py-Sy)^2 + (Pz-Sz)^2 - .....)
Apparently this expression can be simplified by substituting its sub-expression with pre-defined variables like Q and d.
I know I can use subs, eval, and subsalg to do it manually:
subs(1/(sqrt( (Px-Sx)^2 + (Py-Sy)^2 + (Pz-Sz)^2 - .....) = 1/dv, dfdpx)
subs((Px - Sx) Vx + (Py - Sy) Vy + (Pz - Sz)Vz = dotproduct_q_v, dfdpx)
and I can get a simplified expression like this:
But it's like my brain does the simplification first, and Maple only does the text substitution for me.
Is there any way to do it automatically?
How can one simplify following expression:
After applying 'simplify' command I am getting this:

This is part of a large simplifcation where lots of terms are being substituted. In two of those terms, it did not simplify as we would expect.
I think the main thing is trying to find a way to factor out the "2".
I could do this
> rule3:=w[1]/(1+1/exp(mu[p]))^2+(-w[1]+1)/(1+1/(exp(mu[p])*exp(eta[p2])))^2 = s[3];>rule3:=2*rule3;> rule3ne:=-(w[1]/(1+1/exp(mu[p]))^2+(-w[1]+1)/(1+1/(exp(mu[p])*exp(eta[p2])))^2) = -s[3];> rule3ne:=2*rule3ne;
> applyrule(rule3,tmp[1]);> applyrule(rule3ne,tmp[2]);
For this example, this works.
But I hope for a more generic approach.
I figured I'd start a new thread for odd things I come across whilst using the new physics package.
I have found this, and am not sure if it is expected.

Signed Kernel Modules
As shown in this article, a number of different steps are required to generate a key, sign a kernel module and place the public key into the kernel image. This still is a rough development project. In order to make it more acceptable to the kernel developers and to the Linux community in general, these steps need to be automated, making it easier to sign all kernel modules and handle the public key.
Besides the obvious need to simplify the use of this feature, some other future goals of this project include:
Move the RSA code into the generic crypto framework, allowing other kernel features to use it.
Allow more than one public key to be present in the kernel, letting multiple sources of signed kernel modules run in a single machine.
Simplify the signing logic to allow GPG's native signing functionality or possibly the functionality provided in the bsign program to be used, instead of the custom mod program.
I would like to thank the developers at Ericsson, who have created a kernel patch and program called digsig, for allowing me to use their port of GPG to the kernel. I previously had done this, but the implementation was horrible; thankfully, they released their port and were very helpful. The digsig kernel patch allows users to sign programs and prevents the kernel from running any program not signed. More information about this project can be found at sourceforge.net/projects/disec.
I also would like to thank my employer, IBM, for allowing me to work on this project, and Don Marti, for prodding me to finish it and write this article.
Greg Kroah-Hartman currently is the Linux kernel maintainer for a variety of different driver subsystems. He works for IBM, doing Linux kernel-related things, and can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

People rag on guys like Eller for not playing well, but if Subban makes a mistake, it gets brushed under the rug like a parent who spoils his children, as if he's already top dog and better than the fusion of Erik Karlsson and Niklas Lidstrom.
Yes he makes mistakes. No dispute. And I'm not sure which board you're reading, but on this one PK doesn't scratch his balls without criticism. Soupy's and Gorges gaffs are hardly mentioned, while PK makes a great play on a rush and gets criticized because the forwards can't anticipate.
It seems easily forgotten by many how with Markov out almost all last season, this kid was the de facto go to guy in all things D. And he was great.

I know what you're thinking - "Didn't I already read a blog with a similar title here?"
"it's deja vu all over again" - Yogi Berra (click the link for more fun Yogi quotes)
|The answer is yes, I did a related but different blog post with a similar title a few weeks back. At that time I was primarily highlighting a webinar that I co-presented with Keith Smith regarding the various virtualization solutions and features that are available in IBM Workload Deployer in virtual application patterns and virtual system patterns leveraging the Intelligent Management Pack (IMP). If you didn't get a chance to attend that webcast live then I encourage you to check out the replay (especially Keith's portion with details on IMP - a really helpful overview).
|This new blog post expands on the theme of that original blog post but takes a broader vision of where IBM has been with our private cloud offerings in WCA and IWD up to and including the recently announced IBM PureApplication System - and how this history demonstrates our leadership in supporting applications in the cloud.

Gov. John Kasich has something to say to anyone waiting on federal funding to help fix their bridges (and while we're at it, any local governments who need funding for something other than food and water): Forget about it. During an interview with Enquirer editors and reporters yesterday,* Kasich said tolls are the best means for funding a new Brent Spence Bridge.
"I do not believe that a white charger is going to come galloping (from Washington) into Cincinnati with $2 billion in the saddlebags," Kasich said. "So if that isn't going to happen and all we do is delay, delay, delay and we push this thing out until 2036 ... holy cow!"
* CityBeat had a similar meeting scheduled but we forgot about it and weren't here at the time — sorry Kasich, we'll get ya next time!
Things are about to get weird in a Clermont County courtroom if David Krikorian and Chris Finney get their wish — to have Jean Schmidt on the witness stand on May 17. Finney, the attorney for Citizens Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes (COAST), has been representing Krikorian, a former Democratic and independent candidate who unsuccessfully ran against Schmidt for Ohio's 2nd congressional district seat, has served Schmidt with a subpoena as part of Krikorian's lawsuit claiming a Schmidt lawsuit against Krikorian was frivolous. COAST's ghost-written blog posted commentary in February in response to accusations from Brad Wenstrup that Schmidt was using campaign funds to pay off legal fund debt from earlier campaign nonsense against Krikorian. Eastsiders mad.
Some high-level Procter & Gamble executives are getting the Bearcat Bounce out of Cincinnati, heading to Singapore where the company believes growth opportunities for its beauty care products are the highest. About 20 positions will be moved to the Singapore office during the next two years.
Does it matter that Mitt Romney might
have led a group of teenagers in a "pin that dude down and cut his
hair" prank during the '60s? The Nation says Obama's gay-marriage
announcement caught Romney off guard.
As expected, Obama's fundraiser at George Clooney's house raked in the dough, raising $15 million in one night.
British Prime Minister David Cameron only recently learned what LOL means in text-speak. The explanation occurred during witness testimony from Rebekah Brooks, the former head of Rupert Murdoch's the now-defunct News of the World. Brooks was forced to resign last year amid a phone-hacking scandal.
"He would sign them off 'DC' in the main," Brooks said, referring to Cameron's initials. "Occasionally he would sign them off 'LOL' — 'lots of love' — until I told him it meant 'laugh out loud,' and then he didn't sign them off [that way] anymore."
It was certainly an LOL moment during Brooks' testimony in a London courtroom Friday as part of a judicial inquiry into media ethics. But the disclosure also underscored the warm personal ties between the prime minister and Brooks, the former head of media baron Rupert Murdoch's British newspapers who was forced to resign in disgrace last summer.
Someone found a really old Mayan calendar, and it offers good news: It goes way beyond Dec, 12, 2012.
Major League Baseball phenom Bryce Harper is in town for a three-game series with his Washington Nationals. The 19-year-old was the No. 1 overall pick in 2010 and is the first superstar-caliber player to make it to the big leagues this quickly prompting comparisons to Ken Griffey, Jr. at that age. Here's the local spin about on freak outfielder coming to town for a weekend series against the Reds.
Voter turnout for Tuesday's Ohio primary was a disappointing 13.9 percent but the turnout among young people — those aged 30 and under — was even lower.
Although the Republican primary in Ohio was highly contested, youth turnout was far below the amount that voted in the 2008 primary. Just 7 percent of Ohio youth turned out Tuesday to vote in the Republican primary, compared to 25 percent four years ago when there was both a contested Democratic and Republican primary.
An analysis by the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) found that about 131,000 young people voted Tuesday, with 37 percent choosing Rick Santorum, 28 percent choosing Mitt Romney and 25 percent choosing Ron Paul.
Despite the dismal number, Ohio still was above the overall youth turnout for the 10 contests on Super Tuesday. CIRCLE found that youth turnout was 5 percent in the seven primaries and three caucuses.
Combining the five Super Tuesday states in which exit polls were conducted with adequate youth samples, CIRCLE estimates that 88,000 total youth voted for Paul, with nearly 88,000 who voted for Santorum, about 86,000 for Romney, and about 43,000 for Newt Gingrich.
The candidates performed differently in each state: Paul came in first among youth voters in Virginia; Santorum, in Ohio and Tennessee; Romney, in Massachusetts; and Gingrich, in Georgia.
In all of the primaries and caucuses so far — excluding states where there were no exit or entrance polls about youth vote choice — youth vote tallies stand at approximately 201,000 for Romney, 200,000 for Paul, 162,000 for Santorum, and 87,000 for Gingrich.
By this point in the 2008 primary campaign, Democrat Barack Obama had drawn more than six times as many youth votes as any of the Republican 2012 candidates, with about 1.36 million youth votes, although more primaries were contested on or before Super Tuesday in 2008.
Political observers have theorized there is an "enthusiasm gap" among Republican voters based on lower overall voter turnout in most of the states that have held presidential primaries so far. Turnout has been lower in eight of the 13 states when compared to the 2008 primaries — although Ohio isn't among them.
Ohio's overall voter turnout this year was 13.9 percent, higher than the 12.8 percent who voted in 2008, but lower than the 16.8 percent who voted in 2000, according to a review by the Bipartisan Policy Center and the Center for the Study of the American Electorate.
Based on final and official results from the six states whose primaries preceded Super Tuesday and near final and unofficial results from the seven Super Tuesday primaries, 7.85 million people voted out of 68.13 million eligible citizens, or 11.5 percent.
Turnout was 13.2 percent of eligible citizens in 2008, and it was 12.2 percent in 2000.
Founded in 2001, CIRCLE conducts research on young Americans' voting and political participation, along with other forms of civic engagement. It is based at Tufts University in Massachusetts.
Founded in 2007 by former Senate Majority Leaders Howard Baker, Tom Daschle, Bob Dole and George Mitchell, the Bipartisan Policy Center is a think tank that seeks to create policy solutions through "reasoned negotiation and respectful dialogue." It is based in Washington, D.C.
In news you've likely already heard from your favorite website, social network, radio station, print publication, TV or the guy in your neighborhood who likes to talk about current events, President Barack Obama yesterday announced his support for same-sex marriage, becoming the first-ever sitting president to do so. The news has spawned analysis from across the land, ranging from "risky but inevitable" to "matters less than you think." The Enquirer says the decision is going to "echo in Ohio" (whatever that means).
One thing we know for sure: Hollywood celebs are preparing to pack George Clooney's house tonight and fill up Obama's briefcase with money.
The "No. 2 official at the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office" says the jail being next to the casino will be bad for business, according to an Enquirer story detailing worries over jail overcrowding leading to accused criminals to go into the casino to "get warm, panhandle customers or just give visitors a bad impression of Cincinnati."
Hamilton County Commissioner Todd Portune yesterday cancelled a new truck order for Paul Brown Stadium, instead giving the vehicles to Parking Operations. Parking Operations was supposed to get the stadium's used trucks after the stadium received new ones, but Portune said the stadium doesn't need brand new stuff all the time.

revolutionizing the hair-care industry. Here's a Philadelphia

The World Choir Games kicked off last
night with an opening ceremony that CityBeat's Anne Arenstein thoroughly
enjoyed. Arenstein in a blog described choirs from West Chester,
Loveland and Pleasant Ridge mingling with groups from Japan, Colombia,
Canada and Australia, along with "spontaneous singing and dancing." The
event takes place at various venues through July 17. More info here.
Kentucky has a higher rate of women who smoke while pregnant than other parts of the country. The state health department has apparently felt the need to remind people that when you inhale cancerous chemicals with a baby inside your body, the baby gets some too.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine is willing to offer the full strength of his office should any knuckleheads try to rip off the state's new casinos. In a joint statement with Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Bill Mason, DeWine articulated his dedication to stopping cheaters in casinos. The state charged seven people for increasing bet sizes or removing bets when you're not allowed to anymore.
President Obama has begun a two-day bus tour through northern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. The tour is called "Betting on America" and will include a defense of Obama's economic policies while pointing out that the auto bailout worked and Mitt Romney outsourced mass jobs.

Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan weighed in on the controversy over replacement National Football League referees in a Tuesday town hall-style meeting in Cincinnati, comparing the Obama administration to the substitute officials who cost his home-state Green Bay Packers a victory with their botched call Monday night.
"Give me a break. It is time to get the real refs," Ryan said.
"And you know what, it reminds me of President Obama and the economy — if you can't get it right, it's time to get out. I half think that these refs work part time for the Obama administration in the budget office."
Ryan was referencing a play that should have been called an interception for the Packers but instead allowed the Seattle Seahawks to score a game-winning touchdown on Monday Night Foodball. Replacement referees — some of whom may have been fired by the Lingerie Football League for incompetence — are filling in for unionized officials who are locked out.
The vice presidential candidate spoke inside a Byer Steel warehouse surrounded by piles of I-beams and rebar. A self-proclaimed Southern gospel rock band played before the event, occasionally pausing to talk up GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney's conservative credentials.
Much of Ryan's prepared speech, as well as questions from participants in the town hall, focused on the economy, the deficit and the need for changes to entitlement programs.
Asked by an audience member how he would limit government and eliminate programs, Ryan said he and Romney would spur economic growth by lessening the tax burdens on small businesses, cut discretionary spending on government agencies and overhaul entitlement programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.
Outside before the rally, protesters called for Ryan — whose House-passed budget made deeps cuts to many welfare and safety-net programs — to have more compassion for the poor.
Meanwhile an airplane sponsored by MoveOn.org carried a banner reading, "Romney: Believe in 55% of America?" referencing comments revealed in a recent video where Romney claimed 47 percent of Americans didn't pay any income tax and viewed themselves as victims reliant on government so it wasn't his job to worry about their votes.
"We're here with several messages, including the immorality of the Ryan budget and how it will impact the vast majority of Americans negatively," said David Little with the liberal advocacy group ProgressOhio. "When a budget protects those with the most and negatively impacts those with the least, I would suggest that is immoral."
Bentley Davis with the Alliance for Retired Americans said she was concerned about what Romney and Ryan's plans for Medicare and Social Security would do to retirement security.
Ryan had proposed to keep Medicare the same for anybody already 55 and over, but give younger Americans the choice to get money to spend toward private insurance or stay in a Medicare-like program.
Inside the warehouse was a digital sign that ticked up the national debt, which was at $16 trillion and rising.
"Here is what our government, our Congressional Budget Office, is telling us our debt is in the future if we stay on the path that President Obama has kept us on, has put us on … the debt goes as high as two and a half times the size of our economy by the time my three kids are my age," Ryan said.
The Obama campaign fired back in an email response, saying Ryan used misleading rhetoric to hide his own record and Republican plans to raise taxes on the middle class to fund tax cuts for wealthier Americans.
"The Romney-Ryan ticket has plenty of questions to answer about a failed record on manufacturing and job creation and their support for policies that will devastate middle class families by raising their taxes and shipping jobs overseas," Obama for America – Ohio Press Secretary Jessica Kershaw wrote.
"These policies would take the growing manufacturing industry backward, not forward."
For some in the audience, the economy was also on the forefront.
Steve Teal, 56, of West Chester, said he doesn't like the direction the country is going in.
"Just get the country back to work," Teal said. "I don't trust him (Obama). He doesn't stand up for America. He doesn't stand up for Americans."
CityBeat writer Stefane Kremer contributed to this report.
Ryan went from Cincinnati to an event with Romney in Dayton later on Tuesday.
Conservative presidential hopeful Rick Santorum is busy today trying to clarify a comment he made Thursday that indicated reelecting President Barack Obama would be better than electing Santorum's Republican rival, Mitt Romney.
Santorum's comment, made in San Antonio, Texas, at the USAA insurance company, drew criticism from Romney, Newt Gingrich and other Republicans.
"You win by giving people a choice. You win by giving people the opportunity to see a different vision for our country, not someone who's just going to be a little different than the person in there," Santorum said in San Antonio. "If you're going to be a little different, we might as well stay with what we have instead of taking a risk with what may be the Etch A Sketch candidate of the future."
Romney quickly fired back about Santorum's comment.
"I am in this race to defeat Barack Obama and restore America's promise," Romney said. "I was disappointed to hear that Rick Santorum would rather have Barack Obama as president than a Republican. This election is more important than any one person. It is about the future of America. Any of the Republicans running would be better than President Obama and his record of failure."
Not to be left out, Gingrich took to Twitter to join in the symbolic thrashing.
"Rick Santorum is dead wrong. Any GOP nominee will be better than Obama." Gingrich tweeted.
This morning Santorum's campaign released a statement that sought to clarify what the candidate meant. (How many times has that phrase had to be used in relation to Santorum in the past few months?)
"I would never vote for Barack Obama over any Republican and to suggest otherwise is preposterous," Santorum said in the prepared statement. "This is just another attempt by the Romney campaign to distort and distract the media and voters from the unshakeable fact that many of Romney's policies mirror Barack Obama's."
Santorum added, "I was simply making the point that there is a huge enthusiasm gap around Mitt Romney and it's easy to see why — Romney has sided with Obama on health-care mandates, cap-and-trade, and the Wall Street bailouts. Voters have to be excited enough to actually go vote, and my campaign's movement to restore freedom is exciting this nation. If this election is about Obama versus the Obama-Lite candidate, we have a tough time rallying this nation."
Santorum might be correct about the enthusiasm gap over Romney.
A new poll found that more people offer negative than positive assessments of Romney. But, tellingly, this also is the case for Romney's rivals — Santorum, Gingrich and Ron Paul.
When Americans were asked what one word comes to mind when thinking about Romney, the top responses were "no" or "no way," and "rich." After those, the most frequently used words were "flip-flopper," "idiot" and "arrogant."
Roughly twice as many respondents gave negative one-word descriptions of Romney rather than positive terms, 30 percent versus 14 percent; just 29 percent used neutral terms.
The most frequently used terms for Santorum, with the exception of "no," were "crazy," "too conservative," "extreme" and "idiot."
A mere 13 percent of respondents used positive words for Santorum, while 30 percent used negative words and 22 percent used neutral terms.
Words most frequently offered about Gingrich were "old," "no," "no way," "idiot" and "untrustworthy."
Thirty-nine percent of respondents used negative terms about Gingrich, compared to 10 percent that used positive terms, and 23 percent that used neutral terms.
The most frequent descriptions used for Paul were slightly better, but not by much: "no," "old," "Libertarian," "honest" and "crazy."
Twenty-seven percent of respondents used negative terms to describe Paul, compared to 15 percent that used positive terms, and 23 percent that used neutral terms.
The national survey was conducted by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and The Washington Post. It surveyed 1,009 adults March 15-18.
Of the respondents, 605 were interviewed on a landline telephone, and 404 were interviewed on a cell phone, including 176 who had no landline telephone.
The poll's margin of error is plus or minus four percentage points.
Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls responded to Rep. Steve Chabot's Wednesday attempt to block federal funding for Cincinnati's streetcar construction by calling it "an outrageous interference in local government decision-making." The Enquirer today recapped the situation, which involves Chabot adding the following amendment to a massive federal transportation bill: "None of the funds made available by this Act may be used to design, construct, or operate a fixed guideway project located in Cincinnati, Ohio." The amendment has little chance at being included in the final passage of the bill, as the Senate and President Obama would both have to approve and sign it.
A parody video of a Western & Southern PR representative explaining why the insurance company should build condos at the site of the century-old women's shelter has earned a response from W&S. The company's VP of public relations told The Enquirer: "Whoever created the video, we think it's unfortunate that they've taken this approach," he said. "We think it's a distraction from finding a win-win for all involved." The video is no longer available on YouTube, however, due to "a copyright claim by Canipre inc."
Speaking of funny videos, MSNBC posted this video of Rep.

Faced with the choice of raising property taxes or funding senior and mental health services at their current levels, the Hamilton County Board of County Commissioners voted on Wednesday to approve a ballot measure that would effectively cut tens of millions of dollars from those services if passed by voters.
"It seems wrongheaded for us to ask citizens to pay more in taxes when their homes are worth less, when costs have gone up in their households and when in many cases their paychecks are down," said Board President Greg Hartmann. "So we need to hold the line on those property taxes."
The tax rate would be held at the levels passed by voters in 2008, which would be an effective reduction due to declining property values. If Hamilton County voters approve the levies in November, senior services would see a $7 million reduction in funding over the next five years — down to $97 million from $104 million — while funding for mental health services would fall $17 million from $187 million to $170 million, Hartmann said.
The money funds services such as meals on wheels, in-home care for seniors, counseling and drug and alcohol addiction and treatment services.
The board's sole Democrat — Commissioner Todd Portune — made the symbolic gesture of submitting an alternate proposal which would have funded services at the levels providers had requested, but it failed without support from either of the board's two Republican members.
Portune's resolution would have increased property taxes by $5 for every $100,000 the property was worth. He said voters should be given the option to shoulder the additional tax burden. He later voted in favor of Hartmann's resolution, saying the worst thing that could happen would be for voters to approve no levy.
Commissioners also approved a resolution to formally review all healthcare services provided by the county in hopes of saving money by eliminating any that were duplicated at the federal level under the healthcare overhaul.
Hartmann said he didn't come to the decision to keep the levies at the current rate lightly and pledged to work with the recipients to manage the reduction.
Many of those providers appeared at three public hearings held in the last month and with near unanimity asked commissioners to approve the increased rates — which would have kept funding even by countering the money lost from decreased property values.
Patrick Tribbe, president and CEO of the Hamilton County Mental Health and Recovery Services Board, didn't outline specific cuts the agency would undertake, but told reporters after the commissioners' vote that he would spend the next six months planning for the start of the next fiscal year, when the cuts would take effect.
The Tax Levy Review Committee had recommended that the property tax rate remain flat instead of increasing. It suggested that service providers reduce their administrative costs and find areas to increase efficiency.
Many of the providers who spoke at the public hearings said they had already cut administrative costs about as deeply as they could and had very little room for to cut further.
A performance audit for the Cincinnati Service Department
could save the city $3.7 million. The audit claims $2 million could be
saved every year if the city privately contracted solid waste collection
and street sweeping. An additional $1.7 million could be saved if the
city reduced overtime, sick leave and staffing levels. Along with other recommended savings measures, the changes could
amount to 7.9 percent of Cincinnati's budget.

ZANESVILLE - As the sting from a 45-7 Division IV regional final loss started to wear off a bit in John D. Sulsberger Memorial Stadium, New Lexington's coaches and players realized what a special season they had in 2006.
It sets the tone for future Panthers' success.
Sure, Bellaire quarterback Nick Roccio and his talented corps of spread offense receivers had just shredded New Lexington for 343 yards and four touchdowns. Yet, that didn't taint the Panthers' accomplishements over the previous 12, unbeaten games as the Big Reds moved to an amazing 9-0 in playoff games at Zanesville High School.
"Hey, we were 12-1, won the MVL, hadn't won a playoff game and won two," said Panthers' head coach Bill Nutt. "I'm not disappointed.
"We could have played better tonight, but we just got beat by a better team."
"They were a great team; they may just go on and win the state," said New Lexington's small but mighty senior tailback, Travis Cook, who ran for 108 yards in his last game against a defense that put eight or nine in the box to stop him.
Senior quarterback Jerry Robinson said the Panthers went much further than anyone could imagine at the start of the season.
"From the beginning, a two-point win at Fairfield Union, if you would have told me we would have been at this point, I don't think anyone would have believed you," he said. "I'll think back on all the fun times I had with my brothers out there, because we are like a brotherhood. We all have a lot to be thankful for, for the way this was a true team and the way the community got behind us."
"I'll think about the friendships I'll always have, all those times we were up at 6 or 7 in the morning together during the summer and two-a-days," Cook said.
These Panthers have raised the bar for future New Lexington teams.
"Before, we just wanted to make the playoffs," Nutt said. "Now, we want to make a playoff run."
"We expect them to be back here next year," Cook said.
Former New Lexington All-Ohioan Drew Cannon, now an All-West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference linebacker at West Liberty, said the future still looks bright for New Lexington football despite losing a group of talented seniors.
"The freshman and sophomore classes have both enjoyed a lot of success," he said. "They can learn a lot from these kids."

Humorist's Ohio Home On National Register Of Historic Places
The suburban ranch-style home in Ohio where humor writer Erma Bombeck launched her nationally syndicated column has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Listen to the Story
Ohio's jobless rate fell this year, to 6.8%. That's better than the national average. Even with the recent improvement in the jobless rate, more than 390,000 Ohioans remain unemployed as 2012 comes to a close.
Ohio Means Jobs-dot-com spokesman, Ben Johnson, describes the state's labor market as significantly stronger than it was a year ago but he wouldn't be surprised to see a slight bump in the unemployment rate in January.
"The unemployment rate tends to spike in January and that's because it's not seasonally adjusted and there are large numbers of holiday employees who see their jobs end at the end of December or the beginning of January." Says Ben Johnson,
While the number of help wanted ads posted by Ohio employers during the last several months has leveled off. Statewide 200,000 jobs remain unfilled. Johnson says that many job openings might draw some long-term unemployed back into the labor market.
"One of the things that can happen that's a bit counter-intuitive is that as those people get back into the labor force unemployment can actually increase, temporarily, because of this flood of new people looking for work. We haven't really seen that happen yet. What we have seen coming out of this recession is a relatively slow, but steady, improvement in the economy." Adds Johnson.
Johnson says as the new year starts, transportation and nursing are among the job occupations with the most openings.

Friday Finds 11.7
Hello all! I hope November has introduced itself kindly this year–I know here at least that winter chill turned on like a switch. I love the cold though, so I'm not going to complain–unless it doesn't snow soon. Then I'll complain. I'm feeling particularly earthy today, so I thought I'd share some recycled wood projects for the crafts-people out there. Good luck!
First of all, project aside, this puppy is absolutely adorable. Build this fun modern pet bed for your pooch with this tutorial from A Beautiful Mess. I love the bright colors and bold pattern, but you can make it blend with your decor just as easily!
Looking for a fresh spin in your living room? Try this recycled barn door coffee table from Cleverly Inspired. Bring a bit of rustic flair inside your home and get a fun hand-crafted piece all in one!
For a more subtle wooden touch, try these pallet wood wall pieces from Craftberry Bush. I like the subtle, washed-out look and the relaxing, brown tones showing through underneath–perfect for adding some calm to your room.
These wooden crate stairs from Funky Junk Interiors are so unique and fun! I absolutely love this idea. Hit a couple antique shops or thrift stores and see if you can find some fun crates to incorporate into your new stairwell!
And lastly, if you're looking for that missing piece of flair in your bedroom, take a look at this modern headboard design from Fresh American Style. While the completely white look soothes, funky mix-matched colors would add some oomf to your space!
And there you have it. Until next time, Style Spotters! Happy crafting–the trees thank you!

Get the Look: A Geometric Headboard
I've been noticing a return to traditional (even ornate) forms lately, but reinterpreted in a more modern way. Chippendale furniture is one example. It can be picked up at flea markets and in antique shops, but I've also spotted some variations on the look from big-box retailers.
Here's a bedroom sporting the look with a Chippendale headboard. This one is likely a vintage find that was painted.
You can get a similar look with white walls and a bed featuring layered linens and a geometric headboard, like the one below.
- Morocco Headboard
- Jenny Stripe Organic Sheets
- Washed Linen Bedding
- Jacquard Leaf Bedding
- Tahla Euro Sham
- Light Blue Ceramic Table Lamp
- Mattress Ticking Cotton Rug

In the aftermath of the 2004 presidential election, the Democrats were roundly accused of losing the "moral values voters" in America, and of being the party of "secularists" who were hostile to faith and religion.
The very first Democrat to call me and ask to talk about that accusation and how to change the moral debate in America was Ted Kennedy. He invited me to his home, where he and his wife, Vicki, engaged me in a long and very thoughtful conversation into the night about the relationship between faith, morality, and politics.
Their own deep Catholic faith was evident and their articulation of it very impressive. Our discussion was not partisan at all -- it was not about how to win religion back for the Democrats.
