Army officer seeks to win hearts, minds in Iraq
Colonel gives Rotary a glimpse at work of counterinsurgency
As legislators argue Iraq war tactics, about 200 Corpus Christi Rotarians were served a course of combat clarity during their Thursday luncheon by a military leader on leave from duty in Baghdad.
"I'd certainly take additional troops," said Col. Michael Meredith Kershaw, 45, who commands 3,400 troops in the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, over 330 square miles south of Baghdad - an area a little larger than Austin.
"I need more Iraqi soldiers in the Iraqi Army," said the leader of six U.S. Army and four Iraqi Army battalions, in response to a recent move to increase U.S. troops. "More American troops aren't going to help transfer governance to Iraqis."
Rotary Club of Corpus Christi members fell silent after laying down silverware and twisting chairs to watch a five-minute video profiling the work of Kershaw's troops. They learned how diverse it was.
"A counterinsurgency is about interacting with people," said Kershaw, prefacing the clips. "Our people are spread all over the countryside. And only about one-fifth of what we do daily has to do with shooting people."
The video showcased some of his men and women, average age 25.7, helping restore services in villages, escorting Iraqi children to school, rebuilding market places and helping treat the animals of many of the 450,000 Iraqi people they serve - mostly farmers living on their land. It also revealed weapons caches they unearthed, including one discovered two weeks ago with 1,129 Soviet-made, 82-mm rounds that predated the 2003 U.S. campaign in Iraq. They also have found weapons from Iran, Syria and Jordan that were made more recently, he said.
About 40 percent of Kershaw's troops are combat veterans with more than five years of military service, and 169 have received a Purple Heart.
Kershaw, whose father is a Rotary member, answered questions about the war after his
program, including some from veterans.

BERWICK – As the Abington Heights players heard their names blasting through the stadium speakers while receiving their championship medals, Berwick coach George Curry shot a glance toward the team that defeated his Dawgs 44-35 Saturday for the District 2 Class 3A championship.
That's a good football team, Curry said. You can tell they've been around for years. He has his kids doing what we used to have our kids doing. Strong, smart, know the system, recognize fronts, pick up blitzes. They did a good job because they've been with that program.
When you have continuity year in and year out, you're going to get to that level.
Curry had that continuity in his 35-year run at Berwick as his teams won an unprecedented six PIAA Class 3A state championships. Whether his second stint at Berwick lasts more than a year is unclear.
Curry was hired as interim head coach in June after Gary Campbell resigned. He said earlier this week if Berwick finds the right candidate to take the position, he'll step aside.
He said as much, but in fewer words, after Saturday's loss ended Berwick's season at 10-2.
We'll see, Curry said.
Curry, though, talked like a coach not ready to go back into retirement after increasing his Pennsylvania all-time victories total to 423. He addressed his team's line, which gave up three sacks in the loss and seven in the semifinal victory over Dallas.
Two of the sacks Saturday came in the fourth quarter when Berwick was in Abington territory and trying to rally.
We're weak, so we have to get stronger, Curry said. We have big kids, but they're not strong. We're going into the weightroom and we're going to work.
We had lines in the past where every kid benched over 350. Some of our lines benched over 400. We have to get that kind of strength. To pass protect, you have to be a strong kid. … In my offense, you have to set up one-on-one and block. That's the hardest block in football, a one-on-one pass block.
Despite the loss, Curry felt he got a lot of mileage out of his team, which was a preseason favorite to advance to the D2-3A title game. But he believes the ride could go farther next year. He has spoken highly of the current sophomore class and two of them – receiver Andrew Force and running back Nate Maczuga – have shown flashes of the speed the coach covets.
We'll get there, I guarantee it, Curry said. We got some good kids coming and we'll be there.

Alfred & Karl: Blackface & Tans
in Culture
Please join Alfred & Karl tonight as they discuss the controversy surrounding those who dress up in blackface for Halloween.
Also, is there a difference between wearing blackface and tanning dark to portray people of color?
Is this another means of appropriation or is it admiration?
Please dial 310-982-4273 and press 1 to speak with the hosts. You can also Skype into the show.
Orange is the New Blackface, or, "Drivin' That Train"
Tonight, on a socially ignorant edition of the Never Daunted Radio Network, even though we're against political correctness as a whole, some issues force us to be a little hypocritical. Using the example made by actress/whatever Julianne Hough, we'll be talking about the spectre of Blackface, and how it's never an OK thing to do, even for Halloween.Next, Police officers in Oklahoma responding to a call about an man with a bloody face thrashing around his apartment arrived to find him covered in soap and salt and ranting about a "possessed homosexual demon" who ordered him to "cook the Bible." Is it a case of a hot mess...or just hot meth.Later, man won't be worth a damn unless he knows his priorities. This idea is exemplified by a Georgia man who, after discovering a fire in his home, rushed out five other adults and two children to safety, ventured back into the burning building..to rescue his beer. We'll drink to that!And finally, on this week's edition of the Cremo Cream Essentials, we feature the Grateful Dead, and their seminal album, Workingman's Dead. We'll share a couple cuts and talk about how a band full of burnouts will never actually burn out their legacy.All this and more, tonight, on the Never Daunted Radio Network!
in Lifestyle
Episode #4: We all know that in this country African American people are very sensitive about complexion and hair texture. On this episode of Straight Talk... No Chaser!!! We will be covering Blackface by David Leventhal. This show will be powerful. Hopefully it will educate and change the way we feel about ourselves and the cultures and races around us.
Wipe Off The Blackface Germany!
in Culture
Is something rotten in Deutschland? Apparently so. I'll have guests Gyavira Lasana, and old friend of the show, Lisa Dixon from the frontlines to discuss the delicate issue of blackface and the petition now being circulated.
Gyavira Lasana is a poet and playwright living in New York and Berlin. He has written extensively about the life of blacks in Germany for the past ten years.
Lisa Dixon has been a guest on the show several times. She was one of the "Brown Babies" of Germany, the daughter of a German mother, and African American solidier. Her story was one of many featured in the award winning documentary, "Brown Babies: The Mischlingkinder". She is an activist and very vocal in the campaign to end the practice of "blackface" in Germany.
Use of Blackface in Films
Looking at the use of blackface in films
Wipe Off The Blackface Germany: Part II
in Culture
Gyavira Lasana and Lisa Dixon are my guests again to dig deeper through this issue of "Blackface" or refusal to acknowledge the existance of qualified actors to play black roles. Instead they are choosing to use white actors and use the practice of smearing their faces black to play black roles. This definitely transcends the practice of "Blackface" itself, and brings to light the issue of a total disregard of a people. Get your shovels ready! Please sign the petition while you're at it.
Modern Day Minstrel Shows [Setting The Tone Radio Live]
in Television
LET'S BE CLEAR: This a DIRECT shot popular shows like "Empire", "Scandal", "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" and the likes. Stemming off our BlogTalkRadio featured episode, "SLAVE THEN, SLAVE NOW!", we will debate whether reality shows and television dramas of today really mimic how blacks were mocked in blackface during the 19th and 20th century, even 50 years ago.
As we revealed last episode, the tactics used by slave owners left Black Americans and other minorities stripped of their native tongues, religion and culture and even today, Black Americans seem to be subjected to a NEW form of slavery.
Are blacks in a much better position landing (some) television roles? Or is this the same minstrel show only masked to appeal to the masses while implanting negative stereotypes are blacks.This episode, we discuss the effects of television on Black Americans today, if any.

Full, lots of flavours, more on the lighter side of a Islay whisky (less smoked), but lots of flavours like different herbs and a touch of sea. Some of the flavours reminds me of Speyside or a lowland destllery. I didn't use ice, but a drop of water for enhancing the flavours whiich then became even fuller. Highly recommendable if you like scotch whisky and a bargin under £140

Trade Deadline Preview: Inventory
Thomas Drance
February 21 2012 11:05AM
More lopsided trades please (image via thestanchion).
Show me the hockey fan who doesn't love hockey-trades - and I'll show you a liar. With that in mind, Canucks Army will be bringing you an exhaustive trade deadline preview from now through Friday. We'll look into Canucks deadline history, drool over unicorns, and circle menacingly over the cellar-dwelling carcasses of the "sure-fire sellers" at the 2012 trade deadline. Today, however, we'll start our trade deadline preview series with some yeoman's work: a thorough inventory of Canucks needs, assets, possible strategy and cap-space. What should the Canucks look to add, what chips do they have to play with, how much cap-space do they really possess and how much risk should the Canucks take at the deadline?
All that and more, just click past the jump!

Game Day Recon: Game #60 - Canucks @ Predators
I'm sure the stat-nerds would love to tell you that the Nashville Predators, based on their awful possession numbers, are outstaying their welcome in the hunt for home-ice advantage. But the fact remains that the Preds have already functionally guaranteed themselves a playoff spot, and are a legit powerhouse in the Western Conference. They score goals, they have an enviable defence and one of the best goalies in the league. While it seems like it should be a given to simply write off the Predators, they're a leading team in the West, playing in an insanely tough division.
And the Vancouver Canucks should be worried about tonight's game, because the Preds have proven that they are legit.
A Mystery Solved
Jonathan Willis
February 20 2012 08:01PM
In the summer of 2001, the Vancouver Canucks were a team on the rise. They'd made the playoffs in 2000-01 for the first time since the mid-1990's, and things were looking up. The team's major question mark was in net, where Dan Cloutier was unproven as a starting goaltender and no backup goalie was in place. At that fall's waiver draft, general manager Brian Burke addressed the backup goalie position, claiming minor-league veteran Martin Brochu, a decision that many questioned at the time. Why did Burke enter the season with an unproven backup behind an unproven starter?

Manny Malhotra centres the "first checking line"
Cam Charron
February 20 2012 12:56PM
For the last couple of weeks, I have been very interested in Alain Vigneault's utilization of fourth line centreman Manny Malhotra. The hope is that eventually the mainstream writers and reporters in this town will hop on to the fact that he starts shifts in the defensive zone at a higher rate than any player since the start of the BehindTheNet era (2007-08) and it's very likely that he ranks as one of the highest in the history of the league.

"the worst place we stayed in Sri Lanka"
This tiny tiny little bungalow in the grounds of a bigger house was the worst place we stayed out of 5 rentals in Sri Lanka. There was rodent excrement over all the dishes and the entire kitchen area… More
I wish to deny the vindictive comments by this reviewer. We have no rodents, and she did not make this claim in her email to me, but obviously made it up as she was writing her review. Please note she did not complain that Gate cottage was 1. Dirty
2. The linen was dirty and not up to standard
3. All the necessary utensils, cutlery, stove, fridge, furniture,etc. was not available
4. Hot water was not available at all times
5. The swimming pool was dirty.
6. The beds were uncomfortable
7. Mosquito nets were available, and air conditioning if needed.
This customer was paying £10 per person per night. She pleaded poverty so she did not have to pay the security deposit, which she knew from the very beginning she had to pay. If as she alleges I asked her personal questions why did she not tell me there and then to mind my own business.
I did not reply to this review sooner because I was waiting to get an email from my house keeper in Sri Lanka. I enclose a copy of the main part received today.
"This is reply for that e mail.
I didnt tell anything about you or your business, with her,Just she is telling in her mind. I KNOW MY SELF House was clean,there are not have any dirty or rubbish. Garden was clean. But sea was ruff, Just she is telling only.
But when they left the house our maid went to clean. Then when she finish to clean she told me there was 2 bath towels was missing.I dont know what happen to that."

"Lovely house - lovely people"
This little house is absolutely lovely and the ideal location for people who want to relax away from main tourist areas - and yet it is just 15 minutes from great beaches and great shopping in Negombo. The cottage is simple and has exactly what you need and not a lot more - and a great atmosphere!
The swimming pool and garden is lovely and the beach is great for taking long walks but not for swimming because of the reefs.
The local population in the area as well as the people working at the property are incredibly friendly and helpful and you get none of the hassle that you encouter in more touristy locations.
Great value for money!

At some point during an action/adventure/thriller flick, the audience is forced to make a choice about the suspension of disbelief. If the film in question is either a strict, but smartly written procedural or an over-the-top fantasy, such decisions are easy. Think the impudent hyperbole of 24 or the taut psychological games of BREACH. Alas, SHOOTER falls into a dismal middle ground where plot holes loom large and coherence is confused with having things blow up with an energy level going through the terminal stages of entropy. I have not read the book on which SHOOTER is based, but with only the film by which to judge it, a hack book has been made into an equally hack movie. This is RAMBO with less pomposity and better acting. Mostly.
Most of that mostly is Mark Wahlberg, the titular gunman. He is an actor with a palpable intensity, biceps that can best be described as compelling, and charisma by the bucketful, even when dressed as a yeti (don't ask). This serves him in good stead as Bob Lee Swagger, an ex-Marine and still a crack marksman with a weakness for serving his country. While his last mission went bad, during it he managed to bring down a helicopter that was bearing down on him and his partner with its guns blazing. He didn't save the partner, who was also, of course, his best pal, and this is why three years later he is living on a mountain top in
There are many other reasons to be surprised, such as the cop who can't take down Swagger at point-blank range, or the way Swagger can take two non-fatal bullets and still outrun the authorities, even taking down an FBI agent while making good his escape. That would be Nick Memphis (Michael Pena), a rookie three weeks out of the Academy who finds himself on the receiving end of Swagger's story about being framed as he's being cuffed with his own handcuffs and left to watch Swagger get away in his government-issue car. His boss thinks he's a screw-up, but
Before you can say road trip, Swagger and
Things blow up, cars crash, and helicopters swarm in a repeating motif as Swagger does the impossible without ever breaking a sweat on his uber-toned musculature. That's pretty much the story until we arrive at the talky and painfully obvious denouement. And then another. And finally a third, equally talky denouement that is positively besotted with stating the obvious yet again as though it were a revelation. If it weren't for Wahlberg's focused slow burn, Pena's chipper stab at derring-do, and an eccentric turn by Levon Helm as an unhinged ballistics expert and conspiracy maven, this would be a total loss. As it is, SHOOTER is a waste of time and talent that is afraid to either make sense, or to wallow in its excesses.

Best Sandwich New York 2013 - Num Pang
140 E. 41st St.
New York, NY 10017
College buddies Ratha Chaupoly and Ben Daitz opened Num Pang restaurant back in 2009 in Union Square, and the Cambodian sandwich shop has since grown into four locations across the city. Inspired by Chaupoly's Cambodian heritage, the duo created fish-sauce–heavy, locally sourced sandwiches on fresh-baked breads, and irresistible, in-season sides, such as Greenmarket gazpacho and raw kale and daikon salad. As for the sandwiches, the pulled Duroc pork and summer peach with hand-cut bacon are no-brainer winners, though the vegetarian roasted cauliflower also hits it out of the park.

Evangelical pastors divided ahead of 2012 caucuses
DES MOINES, Iowa Four years ago, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee won Iowa's Republican presidential caucuses partly by locking up the support of evangelical pastors, the former Baptist minister's brethren and a potent voting bloc within the state's influential Christian conservatives.
Today, Iowa's increasingly political pastors are up for grabs, divided on whom to support from a GOP field that features several candidates who call themselves born-again Christians.
"More pastors are engaged than four years ago," said Jeff Mullen, who leads one of the Des Moines area's largest evangelical churches. "But there are more choices."
And all have come calling.
Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, a political product of her state's evangelical conservative movement, has met regularly with groups of pastors across Iowa since before she officially entered the race. But they're also being pursued by businessman Herman Cain, who is an associate pastor at his Atlanta church, and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, whose first stop in Iowa as a presidential prospect was to the Des Moines area's most politically active church.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who hosted an evangelical gathering that drew 30,000 to Houston in August before becoming a candidate, met with Iowa church leaders last month and during a recent visit to the heavily Christian northwest corner of Iowa. And former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has appeared at private pastor conferences in Iowa where he won some respect for his admission of personal failings during his two previous marriages.
Unlike past campaigns, the lack of an imposing establishment candidate in this race has opened a door for more candidates who appeal to the party's socially conservative base. Tea party supporters, new factors in the presidential nominating campaign, also largely share the evangelicals' social values.
"While we've called it in the past social conservatives or Christian or religious right, it's gotten much broader than that," said Greg Mueller, a Republican consultant who was a top adviser to Pat Buchanan's presidential campaigns. "And I think it's invited candidates into the race that see there's a connection there."
It's possible that such a conservative candidate will rise in coming weeks - and get the pastors to coalesce behind his or her candidacy.
But should pastors - and, by extension, evangelical voters - remain divided heading into the January caucuses, it's possible that Mitt Romney could emerge from the pack by rallying backers who put job and economic issues above social causes. Romney does receive some support from evangelicals, but he's unlikely to win over most of them. Many view him skeptically because of his Mormon faith and his past support of gay rights and abortion rights.
"A lot of pastors and social conservative activists are looking at each other and asking, `What horse do we bet on here?' My sense is right now it's fairly muddled," said Ralph Reed, founder of the national Christian Coalition who now heads the Faith and Freedom Coalition.
"If Cain, Perry, Bachmann, Santorum and Gingrich split the social conservative vote, Romney could gain critical mass among party regulars. The polling backs that up. It could get very interesting," Reed added.

City Hall was deluged Nov. 18 with calls from property owners shocked to find notices of double-digit property tax increases in their mailboxes a day earlier.
City Assessor Patrick Todd said he had to start routing calls through the city's communications office because he had enough to bury him all day. Some City Council members were equally swamped.
"The phone is ringing off the wall today," said Council Member Meg Tuthill (10th Ward).
The proposed tax increase is the city's response to growing pension obligations, cuts to Local Government Aid (LGA) and recertification of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) districts that fund neighborhoods and pay Target Center debt. The hike is based on a 7.5-percent, $20 million levy increase, which translates to an actual tax increase of roughly 10 percent to 20 percent for most Minneapolis property owners.
"The tax levy is different than what your property taxes are," explained Council Member Betsy Hodges (13th Ward) Nov. 17 at her ward's budget meeting. "How it affects you is going to depend on a whole bunch of factors."
The most significant of those factors is property value, which is based on city assessments. Properties with lower values pay less in taxes, while properties that maintain or increase their value pay more.
Citywide this year, the values of commercial, industrial and apartment properties are well below the value of residential homes, even though residential properties as a whole are also down. That means homeowners are shouldering more of the tax burden, even if their properties lost value this year. Homeowners whose properties maintained or gained value are expected to pay the most.
Shock and outrage
At a packed public hearing about the proposed increase Nov. 18 in City Hall, homeowners expressed shock and outrage about the tax statements many of them received only a day earlier.
City Council President Barbara Johnson (4th Ward), who presided over the meeting, said the county was responsible for mailing the statements. Mayor R.T. Rybak added that the timing was bad and even caught the city off guard. He said steps were being taken to address the problem.
The public hearing was the second of three. The first was in August before the Board of Estimate and Taxation, which voted to approve the 7.5-percent levy increase. The final hearing will be Dec. 13, when the City Council is expected to vote on the levy.
"When we vote, we will do it with the public input in mind no matter if we get it that day or before that," Johnson said.
Council members got an earful of input at the meeting from residents concerned about their ability to afford living in the city.
Mike Matthews, a 13-year Fulton resident, bluntly told the mayor and council members that taxes have driven him out of his home.
"I just came to introduce myself, to say hi, and I'm also saying goodbye, because we're going to be moving to Edina, across the street, a little rambler," said Matthews, whose tax statement showed an increase of more than 13 percent. "I just can't afford these taxes anymore."
David Holland, who lives in a Stevens Square condominium, said he thought the increase in property value and taxes on his statement was a mistake.
"I went door knocking because I was outraged," he said.
Logan Park resident Ray Dehler said his statement showed an increase of nearly 17 percent, with no increase in home value. He urged council members and the mayor to take another look at the budget.
"I'd like the city to take a look at non-essential services... just make sure we have our non-essential services cut first," he said.
Ann Berget, a 43-year resident who lives in Kingfield, said her statement showed a 17.5-percent increase, which would be added to a 100-percent hike she's seen since Rybak took office.
"I don't know if anyone during that period has experienced wage increases that would offset those burdens," Berget said. "I have not. And I've been employed the whole time. I've been really fortunate."
One repeated concern from speakers was the difficulty residents on fixed incomes would have paying the tax increases. Some attendees were also worried about the city's ability to attract new homeowners. At least one resident said she couldn't afford her house if buying today.
The majority of meeting attendees were from Southwest Minneapolis, but the city's assessor, Patrick Todd, said in a private interview that the highest tax increases were spread throughout the city. He said roughly 30 percent of Minneapolis properties saw a tax increase between 10 percent and 15 percent and another 37 percent saw a hike between 15 percent and almost 20 percent.
"So unless 67 percent are sitting in that Southwest quadrant, it's pretty well dispersed across the city of Minneapolis," he said. "You just can't concentrate it in that area."
'An incredibly tough situation'
Rybak and Johnson both expressed regret for the proposed increase at the end of the public hearing, with Rybak saying the city faced "an incredibly tough situation."
Several factors came together at once this year to contribute to the increase, they said.
"I don't mean to make excuses, but I just want to repeat some of the challenges that we have," Johnson said.
The biggest factor this year, she said, is debt owed to the Minneapolis Police Relief Association, the Minneapolis Fire Relief Association and the Minneapolis Employees Retirement Fund. The city has fought mismanagement of the funds in court and won, but litigation is ongoing. The city does not have control over the funds.
Rybak said in his budget address in August, and it was repeated at the meeting, that he would have proposed a decrease in the property tax levy if not for pension debt. Still, other factors have driven property tax increases.
TIF districts that paid Target Center debt and funded neighborhood groups expired in 2009, returning their value to the general tax base and providing property tax relief for 2010. But the city voted to recertify half of those districts to continue meeting the needs of the Target Center and neighborhoods, contributing to higher property taxes in 2011.
Additionally, the city has seen a $54 million reduction in Local Government Aid (LGA) during the last three years, prompting the city to recover that revenue through property taxes. The outlook for future LGA is increasingly foggy.
The final factor is a significant shift in the market value of commercial and residential property values. In 1997, commercial and industrial properties accounted for 56 percent of the city's property taxes, while residential properties made up 33 percent and apartment buildings paid 11 percent. In 2011, residential properties are expected to pay 56 percent of the tax total, with commercial and industrial properties making up 35 percent and apartments covering 9 percent.
This is the first year in recent memory that commercial and residential property values are both down, said Minneapolis Budget Director Heather Johnston. Even if the commercial market made a slight comeback, it could have a significant impact on what is expected of homeowners, she said.
Council hearing
The City Council will host its final public hearing on the property tax levy Dec. 13 at 6:05 p.m. in room 317 of City Hall, 350 S. 5th Street. It will vote on the levy and the city's 2011 budget at that meeting.

Blowout gets an unlikely rematch
Much has changed in four months, but images of UNC's 35-point win are tough to forget
Originally Published: April 4, 2009By Andy Katz | ESPN.com
DETROIT -- Tom Izzo looked helpless. There was really nothing he could do. It was Dec. 3 and North Carolina was making a mockery of this Final Four preview game and test run for this weekend's event.
Izzo had no shot. He didn't have injured Goran Suton, who wasn't even in the building but rather back in East Lansing tending to an injury. Delvon Roe was hardly the player he is today, still coming back from microfracture surgery.
And the Spartans were already bruised a ...

What this all has to do with either the misrule of England or the evolution of Richard's character, nobody's saying, though Michael Cumpsty's urbane, lucid, and often touching rendition of the title role makes more sense than anything else onstage. Cumpsty used to use his big, lanky frame and resonant voice to bellow such roles; latterly, he's learned wonderfully how to personalize the verse. The production's irritating blankness is much alleviated, especially in the second half, by his skill at catching the role's emotional music, its momentary seizures of despair or grief, warded off with weepy flecks of irony. George Morfogen, a piously quailing Duke of York, and Ellen Parker, raucously feisty as his Duchess, enhance the production. So, after a maddeningly mannered turn as the courtier Bushy, does David Greenspan, knotty and tight-mouthed, as the obstinate, conniving Bishop of Carlisle. But if you ask me what made Richard a bad king, or why Bolingbroke should have made him give up the throne, all I can tell you is that neither Shakespeare nor CSC seems to have thought much about the matter.

House asking prices in County Durham and Teesside lag behind pre-recession levels
Updated 10:36am Friday 22nd August 2014 in Business By Andy Richardson
HOUSE sellers' asking prices in London and the Home Counties have made the strongest gains since the financial crisis struck, while those in County Durham and Teesside have among the furthest distance still to recover, according to a property website.
With an average price tag of £1.5m, average asking prices in central London and the City now tower 41.9 per cent above the levels seen when the housing market was at its pre-crisis peak in May 2008, Rightmove has found.
West London, which like central London has been a strong pull for wealthy overseas investors, has seen the next strongest price growth since the previous peak of the market, with average property asking prices now standing at £564,192, which is 41.7 per cent higher than in May 2008.
The study, which covered England and Wales, found that at the other end of the scale, property prices in County Durham had the biggest percentage jump still left to climb to reach their levels at the previous peak of the market.
The average asking price in County Durham stands at £114,554, which is 13.4 per cent below the typical amount requested by sellers in May 2008.
In Teesside, asking prices are still around 9.1 per cent below 2008 levels.
All areas of London have seen asking prices increase by at least 30 per cent when compared with May 2008, Rightmove said.
North Yorkshire bucked the general northern trend, with asking prices there having nudged above the previous peak of the market.
Those in North Yorkshire have reached £244,776, which is 0.1 per cent higher than in 2008.
But stepping over the North Yorkshire border into Lancashire, asking prices in the county are still 9 per cent below the peak of the market, at £153,339 typically.

IN HORSE RACING there are no sure things—an ancient rule of handicapping that horse–loving Texans have had to learn the hard way. After all, even the mighty Secretariat lost a race to an upstart named Onion. But if ever there looked like a winning proposition, the kind of "mortal lock" that would make a gambler throw caution to the wind, it was horse racing in Texas. Who would have guessed that when Thoroughbred racing finally returned to the state in 1987, after being banned for fifty years, the result would look more like a demolition derby than the Kentucky Derby?
"There's been a little pinprick in the balloon," acknowledges Helen Alexander, a King Ranch scion and a former president of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association. Indeed, nine years after the Texas Legislature gave racing the green light, all three of the state's class 1 tracks (those with the higher purses and faster horses) have stumbled badly, and two of four class 2 tracks have been a total bust. The first track to open in Texas, a class 2 track in Brady named G. Rollie White Downs, lost $1 million and closed less than a month after it opened in 1989. Another class 2 track, Bandera Downs in Bandera, shut down last year owing horsemen more than $1 million; it will be auctioned off this month. The state's first class 1 track, Sam Houston Race Park in Houston, is still in operation but has reorganized its debt after filing for bankruptcy last spring. Retama Park northeast of San Antonio, whose losses may close it down permanently, had to stop racing prematurely last fall. And Lone Star Park, to be built in Grand Prairie, is only now reaching the construction stage after years of lawsuits and financial maneuvering among prospective owners.
Not even the most pessimistic of handicappers could have predicted the combination of greed, ignorance, latent puritanism, blind optimism, cutthroat competition, overbuilding, under–marketing, tightfisted betting, bad timing, and just plain bad luck that would bring Texas racing to its knees. It's no surprise that longtime racing opponent Weston Ware of the influential Baptist–supported Christian Life Commission believes that his early warnings about racing's downside have been "clearly vindicated." But even the sport's supporters admit they've made some big mistakes along the way. They're probably right that racing in Texas can still be saved, yet it's going to take more cooperation within the horse industry, more legislative help, more business savvy, and more public education than anyone predicted. Most important, it's going to take more time.
Right now, you probably couldn't get decent odds anywhere on a rosy future for Texas racing. But in the years before betting on the ponies was legalized here, Thoroughbred aficionados from Kentucky's Churchill Downs to New York's Belmont Park would speak longingly of Texas as the sport's ultimate frontier—even its salvation. Texas, after all, was a land of big spenders and horse–crazy cowboys, or so the fantasies went. I remember a meeting of Jockey Club Pooh–Bahs in Saratoga, New York, in the late eighties, where legendary Thoroughbred owner Joe Straus, Jr., the San Antonio auto–parts mogul who heads Retama Park, was lauded as a hero for his role in getting racing legalized in Texas.
Thoroughbred racing, along with parimutuel wagering, had been abolished in Texas during the lean years of the Depression, a casualty of hard times, strong-arm tactics by then-governor Jimmy Allred, and the state's conservative religious bent. Consequently, the pent–up demand for horse racing should have been as strong as a desert wanderer's desire for drink. Washington Post pundit Andrew Beyer, probably the canniest handicapper in the country, noted that two of the last big tracks built, Minnesota's Canterbury Downs and Alabama's Birmingham Turf Club, went belly–up after being launched with great fanfare—Birmingham declaring bankruptcy just a week after racing was legalized in Texas. But Texas' situation was unique, he said; it would "mark the start of an important new era in the sport."
Beyer, like almost everyone else in the business, was swayed by a number of tangible factors. To begin with, Thoroughbred breeding in Texas was already well established; the state ranks fourth in the nation in the production of foals. Texans have been involved in national racing for generations; the King Ranch, for example, boasts two Kentucky Derby winners: Assault in 1946—who also won the Triple Crown—and Middleground in 1950. In recent years a number of top quarter–horse owners have crossed over to Thoroughbreds with dazzling success, including West Texas rancher Clarence Scharbauer, whose Alysheba won two legs of the Triple Crown in 1987. And there was considerable evidence that Texans liked to wager on horses. Marketing surveys by tracks in neighboring states—Louisiana Downs in Shreveport; Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas; and Remington Park in Oklahoma City—showed that the tracks benefited from their proximity to Texas, particularly to the Dallas–Fort Worth area.
So what happened? The trouble began even before racing was legalized, when intimidated racing lobbyists—fearing opposition by religious groups—settled for weak legislation. The initial bill that approved pari–mutuel wagering called for the state to take 5 percent of the "handle" (the total amount wagered at each track)—considerably more than the takeout in many other states that allow racing—and there was no allowance for "simulcasting" (betting on televised races at other tracks) or off–track betting ( OTB). "It was horrible," says Keith Kleine, the publicity director for Retama Park, who formerly worked at Churchill Downs. "The racing lobby failed to educate the heavies in the Legislature how immense this industry is, how labor intensive it is, how the dollars multiply."
With such a big chunk of their revenue to be taken off the top and without the additional revenues of simulcasting and OTB, debt–heavy racetracks would have to start out like gangbusters and keep on rolling. In racing terms, they would have to carry more weight than old Kelso, the great handicap horse, did in his prime. And this would be no easy task, thanks to two problems that affect every track

Brady Hoke may turn out OK. Like others have said, when Jim Tressel was hired, it was greeted with a collective yawn. Hoke is a midwest guy I think and "gets" what matters at UM.
But I still do remember when Tressel spoke at the half of an OSU basketball game not long after he was hired. He gave the days and the hours till the next Michigan game and beating them and there was no doubt about where his priorities were. He completely won over the OSU fan base that day and a new era of OSU football started.
