Batman: Arkham Origins is heavily inspired by the Legends of the Dark Knight comic series.
According to creative director Eric Holmes in an interview with Game Informer, "The main inspiration for Arkham origins is the comic book series Legends of the Dark Knight. It's a series that started in 1989 and followed in the wake of a big trend of going back in time to examine early career years which I think was started primarily from Batman: Year One."
"Legends of the Dark Knight represented really important stories for the Batman mythologies because every time Batman met someone, or encountered some idea in the world – for example, the Venom drug – it was the first time he'd ever run across it rather than the 80th time," he added.
Batman: Arkham Origins was announced last week, and will be coming this Fall 2013 for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Final Score: Washington 71, (15) Colorado 54
Seattle, WA (SportsNetwork.com) - C.J. Wilcox netted a career-high 31 points to lead the Washington Huskies to a 71-54 upset over 15th-ranked Colorado from Alaska Airlines Arena.
Wilcox shot 7-of-12 from the 3-point arc and reached his career mark on a breakaway dunk late in the contest to put the finishing touches on Washington's (11-6, 3-1 Pac-12) first win over a ranked opponent since March 12, 2011.
"It's huge," said Wilcox. "Every week (in December) you could see when we changed defenses we were getting better and better. You could see entering the Pac-12 season that we were getting better. Now, we are getting results."
Andrew Andrews added 14 points and Mike Anderson had 10 rebounds in the Huskies' fifth win in their last six games. The lone loss during the stretch came against No. 1 Arizona eight days ago.
Colorado (14-3, 3-1) will be able to overcome its first conference loss but may not be able to overcome the loss of leading scorer and preseason All Pac-12 pick Spencer Dinwiddie, who suffered a left-knee injury late in the first half. Dinwiddie was helped to the locker room and did not return to the floor.
"My gut is that it's not good, but we'll see," said Colorado head coach Tad Boyle.
Josh Scott paced the Buffaloes with 15 points, and Wesley Gordon had the first double-double of his young career with 11 points and a game-high 13 boards.
Dinwiddie donated seven points in the first 20 minutes, which were largely controlled by Colorado. Tre'Shaun Fletcher capped a 7-0 surge midway through the period with a transition dunk for a 19-13 margin. Fletcher's free throws at 4:50 gave the visitors their largest lead of the game at 25-18 before Washington scored the next six points to keep it close.
Colorado led 29-26 at the break.
The second period belonged to Washington. Wilcox and Andrews potted 3-pointers 22 seconds apart early on to go in front. Wilcox then scored eight of the next nine Huskies points.
Wilcox's trey out of a timeout at 12:49 put Washington up by double figures and without Dinwiddie, the Buffaloes didn't have an answer. They never got within 12 the rest of the way.
Game Notes
Washington improved to 17-11 under Lorenzo Romar at home against ranked opponents ... Colorado won the rebounding margin 38-30 ... The Buffaloes made just 1-of-12 from behind the arc ... No one on Colorado had more than one assist ... Askia Booker, who reached double figures in 10 of Colorado's last 11 games, did not score on 0-for-9 shooting.

Last Friday the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released its "Employment Situation Summary" for the month of January. The Bureau's data show that both employment and unemployment increased last month; seasonally adjusted employment increased from 147.4 million workers in December to 148.2 million in January, while unemployment increased from 8.7 million workers to 9.0 million. Because of the uptick in the number of unemployed workers, the unemployment rate rose 0.1 percentage points to 5.7 percent.
But as I wrote last month, the unemployment rate is an imperfect measure of labor market health. My own preferred measure, as I explained in January, is the employment-to-population ratio (EPOP) of the working-age population, consisting of Americans aged 25 to 54.
In December of 2007, the unemployment rate rose above 5 percent for the first time in over two years. That same month, the economy entered its longest recession since the Great Depression.
By the official end of the recession in June 2009, unemployment had risen to 9.5 percent. The rate peaked at 10.0 percent in October of that year before finally beginning to come back down.

The Labor Department reported that the economy added 257,000 new jobs in January. With upward revisions to the prior two months' data, this brings the average over the last three months to 336,000 jobs. The growth was widely spread across industries, but it is noteworthy that the goods producer sector remained strong. Construction added 39,000 jobs, bringing the average over the prior three months to 37,700.
Manufacturing added 22,000 jobs bringing the average over the last three months to 31,000. Retail added 45,900 jobs in January, while health care added 38,300. The latter figure continues an uptick in job growth in the health care sector since the fall. Job growth had been averaging less than 25,000 a month in 2013 and the first half of 2014.
There was a 12 cent jump in average hourly pay, but this reflects the erratic movement of this series, not a real development in the economy. Taking the last three months together, compared with the prior three months, wages have grown at just a 2.0 percent annual rate, down from a 2.2 percent increase over the last year. In other words, there is still no real evidence of wage acceleration in the data.
The household side was mostly positive as well. The unemployment rate was essentially unchanged at 5.7 percent. Adjusting for changes in population controls, employment still rose by 435,000 in January. The situation for most groups was little changed. It is striking that less-educated workers continue to be the largest beneficiaries of the recovery. In the last year, the employment rate (EPOP) for workers without high school degrees has risen by 2.1 percentage points, while their unemployment rate has dropped by 1.1 percentage points. High school grads have seen a similar drop in their unemployment rates, although their EPOP has risen by just 0.2 percentage points. By contrast, the unemployment rate for college grads has fallen by 0.5 percentage points, while their EPOP has dropped by 0.7 percentage points. The unemployment rate for college grads is still 0.8 percentage points above its average for 2007.

A weak trade performance and a sharp reversal in military spending held GDP growth to 2.6 percent in the fourth quarter. This brought the full year growth (Q4 to Q4) to 2.5 percent, only slightly above the growth rate of the prior three years. The growth rate of final demand in the fourth quarter was even weaker at 1.6 percent, as inventory accumulations added 0.82 percentage points to growth.
The slowdown in the fourth quarter was predictable as third quarter growth was driven by 16.0 percent jump in military spending. These numbers are highly erratic and sharp swings are usually reversed, as was the case in this quarter. Military spending declined at a 12.5 percent annual rate subtracting 0.58 percentage points from growth in the quarter.
Trade was also a big subtraction from growth, as imports grew much more rapidly than exports. After adding 0.76 percentage points to growth in the third quarter, net exports subtracted 1.02 percentage points from growth in the fourth quarter. Trade is likely to be an ongoing drag to growth in future quarters as the higher dollar makes U.S. goods and services less competitive and austerity policies in Europe continue to depress growth in a major trading partner.
Investment spending was also weak in the quarter. Non-residential investment rose at just a 1.9 percent annual rate with equipment investment actually shrinking at a 1.9 percent annual rate.
On the whole, this report suggests that the economy will continue on a modest growth path that is not qualitatively different from prior years in the recovery. The relatively weak 4th quarter numbers may be a surprise to fashion driven economists, but it was predictable given the compositionof growth in prior quarters.
A new NBER working paper by Marcus Hagedorn, Iourii Manovskii, and Kurt Mitman (HMM) argues that end of extended unemployment benefits at the start of 2014 explains much of the pick up in employment growth in 2014 compared with 2013. The story would be that the end of benefits gave people an incentive to find work. Their method is to compare the change in employment in states that previously had lengthy periods of benefit duration with states where benefit duration was already short prior to January of 2014.
The argument is that in the states that previously had long benefit duration we should expect the cut in duration to have a large effect. By contrast, in the states where benefit duration was relatively short, we would expect to see little effect. This means that we should see a bigger uptick in job growth in 2014 relative to 2013 in the states that previously had long periods of benefit duration than in states that had short periods.
CEPR's Dean Baker recently took Neil Irwin to task for claiming that wages are going to rise soon. Irwin argued that the growing number of job openings is a significant plus for American workers. According to Irwin, if firms are looking to hire, they may begin raising wages in order to fill current vacancies. Matthew Yglesias of Vox made the same point here.
There is some logic to this point. A greater number of job openings means that more employers are looking to hire. And if employers are competing to hire workers, they will have to bid up wages to attract workers to their firms. So other things equal, a higher number of vacancies should benefit workers by pushing up wages.
But the problem is that "other things" are not equal in today's economy. In particular, we have a large number of unemployed Americans competing for those vacancies.

E.J. Dionne had a very nice piece in the Washington Post last Thursday on how the U.S. tax code is less progressive than most reporting indicates. Dionne's main point is that by focusing on federal taxes, many journalists miss out on state and local taxes, which tend to tax the poor at higher rates than the rich:
"It is thus a public service that the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP) has issued a report showing that, at the state and local level, government is indeed engaged in redistribution — but it's redistribution from the poor and the middle class to the wealthy.
"The institute found that in 2015 the poorest fifth of Americans will pay, on average, 10.9 percent of their incomes in state and local taxes and the middle fifth will pay 9.4 percent. But the top 1 percent will pay states and localities only 5.4 percent of their incomes in taxes."
Dionne attributes the regressive nature of state and local taxes to the types of taxes that these areas tend to impose. As he notes, states and localities often rely heavily on sales and excise taxes; according to the ITEP report, both taxes are quite regressive. Property taxes are also regressive, though state-level income taxes tend to be progressive.
But there's another way in which state and local taxes tend to be regressive: they contribute to inequality between states.
Last Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released its December 2014 jobs report. Most media outlets have focused their reporting on the U-3 unemployment rate, which fell to 5.6 percent last month.
However, the U-3 unemployment rate is an imperfect measure of joblessness. In order to be counted as unemployed, a prospective worker must "have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks." This means that if someone has been searching for work for a long period of time, but has become dissatisfied with their job prospects and hasn't applied for any jobs over the previous month, he or she is no longer counted as "unemployed."
Some have tried to correct for this bias by looking at labor force participation rates (LFPR); this is also misleading, mostly because labor force participation doesn't distinguish between employment and unemployment. (A prospective worker is counted as being part of the labor force if he or she is either employed or unemployed and searching for work. This means that if 50 percent of a country's citizens were employed and 30 percent were unemployed, its LFPR would be 80 percent; however, the LFPR would also be 80 percent if 75percent were employed and only 5 percent were unemployed. Obviously it's important to distinguish between these two scenarios.)
Earlier this morning, CEPR's Dean Baker reported on the good news about the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in today's jobs report:
"Most of the other news in the household survey was positive. The number of people involuntarily working part-time fell by 60,000 and is now almost 1 million below its year-ago level. The number of people who chose to work part-time also fell from the November level, but it is still 1.1 million higher than its year-ago level. This is likely due to the ACA, which has allowed workers to get health care insurance outside of employment."
This directly contradicts critics' claims that the ACA would force firms to cut their workers' hours. As can be seen from the graph below, the number of workers involuntarily working part-time has come down drastically since last April, while the number of workers choosing to work part-time has increased. (I use April as my start date because many of the ACA's 2014 enrollees only purchased insurancein March, even though the exchanges had been open since October 2013.)
The unemployment rate edged down from 5.7 percent in November (revised from an earlier reported 5.8 percent) to 5.6 percent in December. However, the main reason was that 273,000 workers reportedly left the labor force. The employment-to-population ratio was unchanged at 59.2 percent, roughly 4.0 percentage points below the pre-recession level.
Most of the other news in the household survey was positive. The number of people involuntarily working part-time fell by 60,000 and is now almost 1 million below its year ago level. The number of people who chose to work part-time also fell from the November level, but it is still 1.1 million higher than its year-ago level. This is likely due to the ACA, which has allowed workers to get health care insurance outside of employment.
The Keystone pipeline could have a serious impact on our children's future, since it will facilitate the removal of high carbon oil from western Canada. This comment must be qualified, since if oil prices stay near $50 a barrel, then it is likely that most of this Canadian oil will stay in the ground whether or not the pipeline is built. However, the environmental issues should be front and center in the decision as to whether or not to build the pipeline.
In early 2000, the civilian labor force participation rate peaked at a post-war high of 67.3 percent of the population aged 16 and over. Despite flattening out in the latter part of the decade at about 66 percent, participation rates never recovered and have steadily fallen since the onset of the Great Recession. At 62.8 percent as of November 2014, labor force participation is now at its lowest level since 1978.
Dear Friend,
As you may know, we here at CEPR like to think of ourselves as the Underdog of the Washington think tank world, fighting the economic and policy powers that be on behalf of the 99%. We even convinced one of Dean's dogs to pose as our mascot. Like Biscuit, we're used to fighting above our weight (which is why we consistently rank number one in media hits and web traffic per budget dollar).
But as we celebrate our 15th anniversary, we're re-thinking our image. A new congress means even more challenges ahead for progressives. We're going to have to work even harder and stand tougher. And we're going to need more support to ensure that all of the gains we've made - from exposing the myth that private equity expands the economic pie to ensuring that aid to Haiti is going where it's supposed to go– are not reversed. We're asking you to stand with us, to contribute what you can, to help us put up the strongest fight possible.
So while we'll always love Biscuit, we think it may be time to recruit one of Dean's other dogs to the CEPR cause.
Don't let the calm, peaceful pose fool you. She's ready to stand tough. And with your help, so are we.
Thanks, and happy holidays, Mark, Dean and CEPR staff, including dogs.
PS Donate $75 or more and receive a CEPR 15th Anniversary tote bag, featuring Biscuit, as our gift.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) recently updated its analysis of changes in before-tax and after-tax family income. In some ways the new analysis showed a brighter picture for middle income families than other work highlighting stagnation. Focusing on the middle quintile of households with children, the new CBO analysis showed a gain in before-tax income of 25.2 percent from 1979. The gain in after-tax, after-transfer income was 46.7 percent. This may not amount to huge gains over a 31-year period, but it is not zero. It is worth looking at these numbers more closely.
Focusing on the before-tax side, the CBO numbers show income for the middle quintile rising from $61,200 in 1979 to $76,600 in 2010 (in 2010 dollars). By far the biggest single chunk of this increase is wages. According to CBO, wage income for this group rose by 14.3 percent over this period, a 0.4 percent annual rate. This is bit better than what we would see looking at the standard wage data. For example, the Economic Policy Institute (EPI) shows the median hourly wage rising by just 5.6 percent over this period.
It turns out that the difference can be explained entirely by differences in price indices used to deflate earnings. (There are also issues about hours worked, the average work year increased somewhat over this period as more women worked full-time jobs, but it would take a more careful analysis to see how hours changed for families in the middle quintile.) CBO used the PCE deflator, the index used to deflate consumption expenditures by households and spending by non-profit organizations. This shows a rate of inflation that averages 0.24 percentage points less than the CPI-URS used by EPI.
There are differences in the expenditures covered by the two indices, and also some minor methodological differences, but the main reason for the gap is that the PCE deflator allows for substitution. If people change their consumption patterns in response to price changes (for example, buying more cell phones and fewer land lines due to a drop in cell phone prices), the PCE deflator will increase its weight on the item people are buying more frequently (cell phones) and reduce the weight on the item people are buying less frequently (land lines). By contrast, the CPI-URS, ignore the change in purchasing patterns over the course of a year and assumes that peoples' purchases of cell phones and land lines is unchanged.

The Inside of the driving cabin was musty and smelled like sweat. The seats need to be wiped with isinfectant rags.
Can't think of anything. The service was excellent !
The agents were extremely polite and respectful. They were also thorough.
Although it did not have the size truck I wanted I ended up with a van. the Cargo vans are very big. I only needed two trips. I would go to this location again. they were very helpful and the prices were right. I only paid 36 dollars for my move. I was pleased.
This spot tends to be busy early in the morning and weekend mornings. Have at least 3 people working to cut down on the wait time.
Although my Saturday started late due to the late opening of the Northern Parkway/Reisterstown store. I had a 9:00 reservation and the store did not open until close to 10:00. That was such poor customer service. My bill such have been cut in half. I have always dealt with that store when I have had to move things. This is a disappointment!!!!!
If a custs drop time is after the store closing ....pleasr inform them they will have to drop the key in the box and cannot switch their form of payment that waz my only gripe
our pick up experience was horrible. We waited in line for over an hour to get a truck. i don't blame the guy working because for one he should not have been there alone on such a busy day(the 1st of the month when every truck was being returned). he was clearly very ill but apparently uhaul does not care about their employees or customers because he should have been home recuperating for his benefit and not there infecting the customers
The location opened an hour late
I had a reservation for a truck for 9am
wasn't able to get the truck till 10:30
Service reps where smoking weed In the back leaving one guy to tend to 30 customers
I had great service. Alan was great and quick
More staff. Less waiting.
Great customer service during drop off. Young man was courteous, respectful, helpful and kind.
Excellent staff. Quick service. Better now than in the past.
Dog hair in the cab, made me itch and sneeze, but clean otherwise.
A more thorough cleaning can be completed. The truck that I rented could've used a better cleaning inside. The floor was dirty and the cup holder had ashes in it. The customer service was excellent at this location. This was my second time renting from here and the cleanliness of the truck was not an issue the first time I rented from here.
emali confirmation never came through even with a repeat call. However, all was ready when we arrived. The staff was helpful and capable. Easy pick up and late night drop off.
Kevin provided me with outstanding customer service. I will definitely go to his store the next time I need to rent a truck or trailer.
The guys at this location are very helpful, knowledgeable & professional. They need some help though...this is a busy location and should be staffed with at least 3 people on busy days to assist with efficiency....1 runner/mover for incoming trucks & 2 in the office. I have been there twice and its only 2 guys trying to do everything. They get the job done but during high volume times....it puts an unnessary dent in patient satisfaction. The other problem was the office was freezing....it didn't feel as if there was any heat on and the guys were working in their jackets due to the office conditions. It felt like an ice box. I am a manager and believe it's unacceptable to leave your staff in those conditions. It is one of the coldest days of winter. Shame on the manager work the heating system into the budget!
Keep doing what you are doing. Very pleased!
Please replace or recharge the battery to the truck #3739..
All is good
Everything went smoothly. The staff was professional and friendly. Keep up the good work!
I really appreciate Mr Alan my neice lost her phone and he kept it until we returned. Thank you si much.
The staff was fast, thorough, and efficient.
I always use the Northern Pkwy. location and the staff are always very accomodating,kind,helpful and very professional.

Rated 5 / 5 stars
Just pretend each star represents five stars... I give you a 25/5!! That was a great song, with great lyrics!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
That was a fun trip. Downloading song so I can listen w/o Internet connection. Beautiful voice, by the way. I'm usually looking for non vocal music, but this is definitely a keeper. The 'Alice is dead' part near the end was a little quiet, could hardly hear it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Not quite sure about the lyrics, not quite sure about the background music. But still five stars because I would listen to you sing about smelly garbage to the sound of nails on a chalkboard. Absolutely flawless voice
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
This is simply breathtaking and while honestly a lot of that has to do with my not expecting to hear what I just heard, that in no way diminishes the impact of the content itself. I love this. Fantastic, original work is always a favorite of mine especially when the quality is this commendable. Thumbs up!
Rated 5 / 5 stars

|ESPN.com: Pac-12
|[Print without images]
Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller
LOS ANGELES -- USC coach Pete Carroll was his normal chipper self when he approached the post-practice gaggle of reporters.
"You want to begin with 'Beanie-watch' questions?" he quipped.
Well, er, yeah. What's your take on whether Ohio State's All-American tailback will play?
"We just figure the guy's playing," Carroll said. "I can't imagine that he won't. But on the other side of it, they showed three really good running backs last week. They're not short of running backs at all."
The Trojans are using 235-pound tailback Broderick Green and 225-pound Allen Bradford to simulate the 237-pound Wells, who's nursing a bum foot and sat out the Buckeyes' lackluster victory over Ohio on Saturday.
"Those guys run big and tough," Carroll said. "It gives us the feel."

How can we get our toddler to let us brush his teeth?
My toddler refuses to let me or my husband brush his teeth. He simply clenches his mouth closed. We've tried using gauze on our fingertips and a child-sized toothbrush. We've even tried brushing our teeth together, as a family, and letting him hold his own toothbrush. Nothing has worked. I'd appreciate any suggestions or tips.

When I faced this situation, my VeryMaids domestic helper will sit her on the counter and sing the song through...twice now...we've improved. If she bites down on the brush, the song pauses. When she releases the brush, the song continues. VeryMaids? domestic helper told me that children?s ability of imitation is strong when he was zero to three years old and guide baby to play games in a happy way, leaving baby to finish his paintings lonely. Later, tell him a good story to develop his practice ability. In this way, we can receive a good effect.posted 03/20/2011 by wanglixue51
We had this same problem with our daughter. A friend told me this trick- they pretend to brush all their daughter's "friends" out of her mouth. I thought it was a little silly and weird, but it works! I get the toothbrush and say " ok, let's see who's in there......I see Brady and Matthew, let's get them out.....oh, and there's Elmo, get out of there Elmo!". This really worked for us and we had tried every other possible trick before this!posted 03/15/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
Please don?t worry, this mom. My VeryMaids?domestic helper also turn on the music. When she releases the brush, the song continues. She thinks this is very funny. VeryMaids?s professional team is made up of English-speaking staff are very good.posted 02/17/2011 by wanglixue51
My 19 month old daughter loves to brush her teeth. She hated it at first until we bought oral b training tooth paste. I brush her teeth first and then I let her brush her own teeth . She stands on her stool infront of the sink and brushes by herselfposted 02/11/2011 by jessg10291
My 21mos toddler doesn't like teeth brushing too. I lay him down on my laps and I put my finger all the way on the back of his mouth and squize my finger in between his gums. He can't fight that. Also, suggestion cut your finger nail and for first couple times ask someone to hold yours toddlers hands. It took me 6 days twice a day to "break" his fighty attitude toward brushing his teeth. Now he opens his mouth when he sees his toothbrush. Good luckposted 02/08/2011 by elena and Max
When i first began brushing my son's teeth, he always objected! So, i took the suggestion of a friend of mine, and went out and bought a battery-operated character toothbrush. Worked like a charm! He was so fascinated at the sensation of it, as well as the colors...he began to look forward to "teeth time," as we call it. So....try a battery-operated children character brush, and let me know how it goes.posted 01/25/2011 by MizzHendrix
I've noticed many of the success stories involve an electric tooth brush. My son is only 8 months old, but when he hears my electric tooth brush he gets so excited because he knows he's next. He loves to help hold the tooth brush in his mouth and move it around. I'll gently push the brush this way and then he goes the other. It's a game. When you make a game out of the things they don't like suddenly they love it.posted 12/16/2010 by MyStang40
We now have a 16 month daughter. The way, I introduced to brushing is I made her watch me brush right from 10 months old. She used to watch me whenever I brush using a regular brush and spin brush. She loves the sound of the spin brush. I make her sit on the wash basin with her feet in the running water (always be safe while doing this. kids love water [hot water is dangerous]) she plays with water and I brush her teeth. She got used to this. Now, I dont even use water. But, I still put her in the basin. (our Basin is big). But starting out early is the trick. I started her brushing around 13 months right after her 1st birthday party.posted 12/01/2010 by LASYA-SHANMUKH
There are a lot of good suggestions below. I work at a pediatric dental clinic. I usually recommend some sort of reward system. Maybe a chart with stickers when teeth get brushed and a reward after so many. If nothing works at some point you have to get really stern. Parents who don't find a way end up with older kids with teeth that are not brushed and have lots of cavities. Better to get the bluff in now.posted 10/29/2010 by lyndsayrdh
I strongly feel that the more you try to enforce it, the more your child will refuse. I know brushing is very important so a lot of people will disagree with me but I never tried to brush her teeth. I just always made sure she saw my husband and I brushing. As soon as she could, she wanted to do what we were doing and is a really good brusher and is always wanting to brush. She's watched us so well! She actually makes a point of getting all the surfaces in the same order as mommy. They are just baby teeth so don't stress too much. I feel that the goal is to create a life long good habit more than keeping their teeth perfectly clean when they're little. Just my opinion though.posted 11/04/2010 by Blessed Mommy & Wife

Product Reviews
Adorable, Fun, but Tippy
This chair is adorable and my daughter (15 months) loves it. It's perfect in her room and I am very happy with the purchase. However, it tips over VERY easily because the back legs of the elephant are too close together. I wouldn't recommend this as a chair that a very young child could just climb up on or sit on my himself/herself, but for an older child whose feet could touch the ground, it might be fine. When my daughter wants to "ride" the elephant, I hold the back end between my knees (while sitting on another chair) and place her on the elephant's back. She's perfectly happy with this set-up, so I can't complain!

"Rent Is Too Damn High" Guy Enters NYC Mayoral Race
(NEW YORK) -- Jimmy McMillan, who skyrocketed to fame when he ran for New York governor in 2010 with his campaign slogan, "the rent is too damn high," has entered the race for New York City mayor.
McMillan -- who ironically lived in a rent controlled apartment up until his eviction in 2011 -- announced his candidacy via rap, titled "Rent Is Too Damn High."
His message:
I'm on a mission again, to give the people my word.
The rent around here's too damn absurd!
The rent and the deficit is too damn high.
The rap continues: The rent is too damn high. My mustache and haircut is too damn fly.
There's no polling to measure McMillan's impact.
