LIMA � Ohio�s Republican congressmen were busy Wednesday explaining their votes on the New Year�s Day deal that ended the fiscal cliff stalemate.
The vote saw the state�s 14 GOP congressman splitting down the middle. Those who supported the bill included Speaker of the House John Boehner, Robert Latta, Bill Johnson, Steve LaTourette, Steve Stivers and Pat Tiberi.
The seven Republicans voting against the deal were Jim Jordan, Steve Austria, Steve Chabot, Bob Gibbs, Jim Renacci, Jean Schmidt and Michael Turner. Jordan represents all of Allen County.
Latta supported the bill because it made permanent tax cuts that Republicans originally crafted and enacted in 2001 and 2003, and it prevented a massive tax increase on many American taxpayers. Latta represents Putnam, Van Wert, Hancock, Hardin and much of Mercer counties.
�Besides making permanent the tax rates for singles at $400,000 and for married couples at $450,000, this bill will prevent 26 million Americans from paying the Alternative Minimum Tax and helps our small businesses and farmers by keeping the death tax exemption level at $5 million,� Latta said. �In addition to extending permanent tax relief for small businesses and middle class families, I am pleased to see the bill included an extension of the farm bill, which will prevent current law from allowing milk prices to skyrocket, as well as repealing the pay increase for Members of Congress and White House staff.�
Jordan represents Allen, Auglaize, Shelby and Logan counties in the region. While he supports the permanent tax cuts, he said he could not support the bill.
�Unfortunately, it also allows taxes to increase for many families and small businesses,� Jordan said. �On spending, which is the real problem, this classic Washington deal is worse than doing nothing. We�ll never get the budget balanced by delaying the few spending cuts that were agreed to in the summer of 2011.�
Jordan�s vote drew praise and criticism from readers at LimaOhio.com.
�No surprise here. Jordan votes no on everything except spending money building tanks that the Army doesn�t want,� wrote Travis Howard, referring to Jordan�s support of the Joint Systems Manufacturing Center and the Abrams tank program.
Dawn Renee Neumeier wrote that Jordan was right to not support the compromise.
�Props to Mr. Jordan! We�re already sinking into the abyss, why compromise now and speed up the process! Cowards is what I call every one of them who gave in,� she said. �If you can�t stand for something, then get out of the way so someone with some guts can do the job!�
Ohio�s two senators � Sherrod Brown, D-Avon, and Rob Portman, R-Cincinnati � voted for the bill as did each of the state�s Democratic congressmen.
The deal boosts the top 35 percent income tax rate to 39.6 percent for incomes exceeding $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples, while continuing decade-old income tax cuts for everyone else. In his re-election campaign last year President Barack Obama had vowed to boost rates on earnings at somewhat lower levels, $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for families.
With passage, the legislation also means the immediate expiration of a two-year, 2-percentage-point cut in the Social Security payroll tax.
The bill also raises taxes top earners pay on dividends, capital gains and inherited estates; permanently stops the alternative minimum tax from raising levies on millions of middle-income families; extends expiring jobless benefits; prevents cuts in Medicare reimbursements to doctors; and delays for two months billions in budget-wide cuts in defense and domestic programs slated for this year.
Overall, the legislation adds nearly $4 trillion to federal deficits over the next decade. Republicans who voted for the deal, including Boehner and Latta, said focus must now turn to spending.
�Our first step to avoiding the fiscal cliff has been taken, but in order to achieve a truly balanced approach and put our economy back on the path to prosperity, we must work towards comprehensive tax reform, reducing our deficit, and cut the out-of-control spending that is occurring in Washington,� Latta said.

Cheap Chinese Moto en Paraguay
Who hasn´t wanted to buy a Yamazuki in some little known country? It´s been my dream for many years. So I finally did it:
They even delivered it to the house, albeit with low tire pressure and a headlight that illuminates the front fender after two minutes of riding. But it´s really not too bad. I´m 6´5´´ so the bike looks even smaller than it is.
$730 out the door. I got that price quote and crossed the street to a Honda dealer where the lowest Price was about $3000. Four for the price of one! And a Honda makes you a target for theft.
It´s about the cheapest new bike I could find. Kenton is sold by Chacomer which has the biggest dealer network and best parts availability of any Chinese Brand here. Honda is the only Japanese dealer I could find and the place was really small with no dealer or parts network.
The plan is to give it to my father-in-law (my wife´s in red above) to replace his bike when we leave for the states in three weeks:
The boys are our contribution to the in-laws´ grandchildren.
Cool, but...
Brian! I'll be keeping up w/ this. It will be nice to get a little better feel for what goes on down there all summer! :rofl Looks like it's small enough that even your kid can just about reach the pegs. Another couple of weeks and he'll be driving it! Have fun. Post some adventures!
Whats that section up front on the second bike? Is that storage?
That, my friend, is what they call a ´mataperro´ - a ´dog killer´
Apparently a motorcycle so equipped can quickly shrug off a dog attack; perhaps even gently brush aside a cow or a horse in the road. I hear accounts of lives saved by the mataperro in the ancient folk stories of the indigenous peoples here.
It´s where you would mount your forward pegs if anyone used them here - tubular steel bolted to the frame. My father-in-law shoves his plastic thermos filled with ice water in there after he wraps it with a plastic bag to keep all the sand and diesel fumes out. He also wraps some bailing wire and straps some inner tube pieces to it just in case something falls off.
It really is, by the way, called a mataperro and the proper translation truly is dog-killer.
The clocks
The gear indicator is to remind me that I´ve already reached top gear (often at 30 mph or 50 kph).
Top speed so far is 90 kph. 55 mph. I kinda have to lean forward against the wind so I can keep my arms slightly bent for better control.
The roads are sometimes quite poor and there are often unpainted launch ramps they call lomadas. Speed bumps in our world. Accidental air is painful.
I like that...."accidental air is painful"
I'm gonna put that one in the quotable quotes book. :deal
The Yamazuky shop
I always thought it was a joke until I saw these bikes about 5 years ago.
In the foreground is my Kenton GL150 with its new trunk and the ubiquitous Renault Clio. The little white truck is also one of many unknown Asian brands, most of which have three or four letters for names. I actually love the Yamazuky symbol.
Notice the sand everywhere. It gets into everything. Always. Sand in your sheets, your shoes, and sometimes your underwear.
The other competing moto brands are Taiga and Leopard and Star (They say ´estar´) and probably some others. All basic cheap copies of old Japanese bikes with a máximum displacement of 200 or 250 cc.
Proximamente: street and traffic stories.
Quotable quotes
I never knew there was such a thing as a quotable quotes book. Now I´ll have to invent all kinds of pithy aphorisms.
I went to the supermarket. I know, it´s not nearly exciting as the open air markets where the cows have donated their organs for open display and sale, but at least there was motorcycle parking.
I saw three bikes parked in front of a WalMart in my hometown of Pittsburgh and I was impressed. Here I counted 60 motorcycles. You read that correctly, sixty! 85 cars.
I thought about parking in the section near the building but then I saw some guy trying to get his bike out and I figured some moron (thanks, Ben) would knock my pretty, new bike over and Pee Wee´s Big Adventure would start all over again.
They even had security watching over the lot.
Motorcycles are, of course, the effective equivalent of compact cars fit for the HOV lane.
Even if you have kids, you can use a motorcycle. I´ve seen families of five. From front to back it´s a 4 year old boy holding the handlebar, Dad driving, 8 year old girl, and Mom with newborn bringing up the rear. Pretty rare, so I´ll try to get a pic.
At least the parents have helmets.
And if the family gets too big, you have a business, or you just want to drive around and pick up crap off the street, you can get one of these:
All that for less than the price of a Honda. Cargo and assistant not included.
Shoulda bought a dual sport
I usually stick to paved roads around here since the bike I bought isn´t destined for me. Next time I´ll have to buy something off-road capable since sometimes the pavement just ends.
The buses and the bikes slow down a bit but they just keep on going. Bouncing and jouncing, stressing old suspensions and weary backs.
You have to really be careful since there is so much sand everywhere. Sometimes the streets are full of it. This looked like an interesting street so I took it.
I have no idea why the huge tree trunk is sitting in the road, but once I reached the top of the hill, I realized where all the sand came from.
Every rain brings more of it down the hill. The sand got deeper and deeper, the ruts more pronounced, and after 300 m I had to call it quits. My neck hurt and both wheels were squirming everywhere.
On the way back I took another street that was recently paved. As you can see, they don´t cut down trees. I waited a moment for the cow to enter the frame when suddenly a dog ran toward it, barking furiously, and chased the cow into the street.
Sometimes a horse will leap out from behind a tree in the road or a cow will rise up from behind an unmarked speed bump. And that´s what they call normal.
Funny Question
Since I have such limited world experience and many of you have traveled far more extensively than I ever will, I have to ask: After you´ve finished your business, are you supposed to put the soiled toilet paper in the toilet or in the garbage can next to it? In Paraguay, it goes in the can. The one next to the toilet.
Some say it´s because the pipes are small - but some poo is pretty big and it travels the pipes with no problems. Others say that the toilet paper is the problem - it doesn´t dissolve easily and causes problems in the septic system. Still others have never considered it - ¨What? You throw your toilet paper in the toilet?¨
Whatever the reason, various international airports and bus terminals in the southern cone of South America have signs telling you to put your poopaper in the garbage can, NOT the toilet.
So what´s the answer where you have traveled? Garbage can or toilet? (´left hand´ is an alternate answer)
Great thread, Brian. I'm finding this first hand account by someone I know to be particularly interesting. (The poo thing might be something I don't car to think too hard about though! Who draws the short straw and gets to change the can?) I am really curious about the road w/ the trees left right in the middle of it. There is even a center line and the trees are pretty clearly in the middle of the right lane! I hope no one steels those HUGE reflective yellow markers off it. :huh I suppose it'd be hard to miss. Hopefully everyone isn't driving around 20 kph over the limit texting on their phone like everyone is around here. It would be a real bummer to not see the tree coming! Does everyone even have phones? It looks like you drive on the left side of the road down there? If so is that hard to adjust too? Keep up the good work! Later.
Note to self - Turn ON your headlight!!
I just came back from a night ride. It´s 6:30 and it´s been dark for an hour in the southern Winter where it reaches a low of 37 degrees and a few days later soars to 88 degrees.
Anyway, the motorcycles have an off switch for the headlights. Most people leave them off pretty much always so as not to burn out the bulb. You get used to looking for invisible motorcycles in the dark.
For some reason, I must have switched off the headlight. Stupid move. There was enough light on the city streets that I never noticed it until I was almost home. I was riding like I was a lot more visible and I´ll have to be more careful.
Cell Phones
Yes, Brian, everyone has cell phones. Infrastructure is lacking and very expensive so most people don´t have land lines. I´ve seen texting from men driving horse-drawn carts and bus drivers with packed buses during rush hour. I followed my father-in-law out to his mother´s house in the dark on his motorcycle and he pulled his phone out about five times to check it. It's just one more thing to watch for on the crazy streets here.
Driving Lights
The maximum speed that I have gotten out of this bike is the same as the best on my bicycle on a good downhill - 55 mph. Since it´s seriously cheap, everything is questionable and you´re always wondering what is going to fall off. Most people don´t drive nearly that fast since they bought the bike for basic family transportation and they want it to last.
Low Beam
High Beam
The low beam is yellow and illuminates the road relatively poorly even at reasonable speeds. At 45 mph, it just shows you what´s about to throw you off the bike. The high beam is brighter and whiter and definitely does a better job, but other drivers don´t like it in their eyes. Combined with the headlights of oncoming traffic, no painted lines or reflective markers anywhere, wandering livestock, and drivers not using any lights, every night ride is is a pretty exhilirating experience.
We drive on the right side of the road. Most of the time.
And yes, the tachometer above does indicate that my little thumper idles at above 2000 rpm. It tends to stall at lower speeds.

03.05.10: Weekly music chatter
CORPUS CHRISTI - Backyard Tire Fire Relishes 'Gig That Keeps On Giving'
Los Lobos has long been one of Ed Anderson's favorite groups. So when Anderson's band, Backyard Tire Fire, got a chance to open for Los Lobos in October 2008, it was a special occasion.
As if things couldn't get any better, a week after the gig, Steve Berlin, saxophonist/keyboardist for Los Lobos and a seasoned record producer, called Anderson asking to produce the next Backyard Tire Fire CD. The resulting album, "Good To Be," is one of 2010's best releases to date.
"We call it the gig that keeps giving," Anderson said, noting that Backyard Tire Fire has landed some more shows with Los Lobos. "Talk about a shot in the arm. I may not be a rich man, but I got to make a record with one of my heroes."

North American Stainless, a division of the Acerinox Group in Spain, celebrated its 25 years in the U.S. stainless steel market with festivities at its Ghent. mill on May 5 and 6.
North American Stainless was formed in April 1990, selling its first coil of stainless steel in early 1993. Over several phases of development, NAS has grown from a re-roller in the early 1990s, to the largest, fully-integrated stainless steel mill in North America.
An ordinance permitting golf carts within the Carrollton city limits has been tabled for now so that "issues" can be cleaned up, Mayor Robb Adams told city council and guests in the audience at the regular council meeting May 11. The ordinance will have "drastic enough changes" to require another first and second reading, he said. However, Adams said he expects council will approve it once changes are made.
Carroll County Fiscal Court held a special meeting Tuesday, May 12, for the first reading of an ordinance for DRC Industries.
DRC Industries had been approved March 29, 2012 for the Kentucky Business Investment Program state tax incentives for an expansion project that would create more jobs. The economy declined about this time and DRC was granted a grace period to take advantage of the incentives.

Carrollton's American Legion Post No. 41 commander Raymond Meadows recently acquired memorabilia from the daughter of World War I veteran Knoble Garriott. Included in the memorabilia was the original charter of Bedford's Lorraine Post No. 75 of the American Legion.
The post was chartered Jan. 27, 1920, with 18 men listed on the charter.
Meadows said he visited with Trimble County Judge-Executive Jerry Powell and Sheriff Tim Coons and neither knew anything about the Bedford American Legion Post.
It is hard to admit that, on a state level, Carroll County has not received the greatest news coverage. Whether deserved or not, sometimes it is hard to see the bad things reported about the community we live and raise our children in. Like many other small towns, we celebrate our victories quietly and together as a community. Last Wednesday was a perfect example of that.
Next year, Kentucky's tourism industry will mark a major milestone when Mammoth Cave celebrates the 200th anniversary of its first commercial tour.
The world's longest cave is our country's second-oldest paid attraction, trailing only Niagara Falls, and it and the surrounding national park have since become a major destination. It draws more than two million visitors a year aboveground, and about a fourth of those tour the sights below.

ROFL @ Pathetic PVP System
So I log in with my klink character,
Wait around for over an hour for 7 other people to form to make a pvp game, get bored waiting.
See the red alert window pop up and click it, jump to borg invasion.
Unimatrix ship spawns twice, we lose the mission, exit to sector space.
Nearly 2 hours of my time utterly wasted.
I'll like to know roughly how many people play Star Trek Online. Seems unreal that you have to spend the best part of an hour getting 8 people together to do PVP.
Can't you increase the rewards for PVP so more people participate, if more than half a dozen people play this game that is. We used to have PVP tokens we could spend on PVP gear. Now we just get a p^&s poor amount of xp.
Make PVP worth peoples while and more people might participate.
FIX THE BUGS!!! this game has been out 2 years nearly now. Please fix the bugs instead of spending time making new items for the c-store.

Kyle Lucas x Jonny Craig - The Party and the Dream

For some artists, who are only after life's finer things and not in it for the love of the music, the party is the dream. For Kyle Lucas, however, there is a huge difference between The Party and the Dream. The Georgia native shares some of the pitfalls of being an up-and-coming artist, such as fake friends looking for a free ride and haters looking to bring him down. With his charismatic, hungry flow and determined attitude, I suspect he will be just fine. Should he struggle, he has friends to lean on, among them producer Zak "Z Rokk" Diebels, who cooks up a powerful beat highlighted by a heavy guitar and heartfelt piano. The instrumental perfectly complements Lucas' energetic rhymes, as well as Jonny Craig's passionate hook vocals. This cut is a loosie but, should you be in the market for more, Lucas just released his free It's Always Sunny in Marietta 2 mixtape.

Cooper upset #10 Tucker Lane at heavyweight on Friday night
 *

Feb. 5, 2011

TEMPE - Heavyweight Levi Cooper upset the 10th-ranked wrestler in the nation and Anthony Robles, in his first week ranked No. 1 at 125 pounds, easily won again, but No. 14 Nebraska won the team dual, 35-8, Friday night inside the NU Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb. The loss drops the Sun Devils to 5-10 on the year while the Huskers improved to 12-4 overall.

The dual opened at 149 pounds with the hosts racing out to a 26-0 lead as they won the first six weights, including forfeits at 157 and 174 as ASU?s starters work to return from injury. Tai Fukumoto dropped a 7-2 decision to Ross Grande at 149 before #1 Jordan Burroughs won by technical fall at 165 over Te Edwards (21--6). ASU lost a pair of close matches at 184 and 197 as Jake Meredith fell, 5-0, to No. 10 Josh Ihnen and Luke Macchiaroli lost a 3-1 decision to No. 14 Andy Johnson, respectively.

At heavyweight, Cooper made a solid return to the mat, less than one week after having to injury default at home with an injury six seconds into the match. In this week?s meeting with No. 10 Tucker Lane, neither was able to score in the first period and Cooper chose down to start the second. He escaped bottom and Lane did the same to open the third period, sending the match into overtime. In the one-minute extra session, Cooper shot in and pulled Lane down to score the 3-1 win and give ASU three team points.

In the next match, Robles took to the mat as the top-ranked wrestler in the nation in most polls and showed why he will be a tough foe at the national level as he won his 18th technical fall and 25th match overall. Robles, who defeated Shawn Nagel, 18-0, raced out to a 14-0 lead through the first period as he scored on a takedown, three, three-point near falls and one, two-point near fall. Robles chose down and reversed Nagel to his back to open the second period for the final scoring of the match.

Trailing 26-8 in the team standings, ASU dropped its last two matches as Kalin Goodsite fell, 4-0, to Ridge Kiley at 133 and Carlos Castro was pinned by Mike Koehnlein in 6:20 of the 141 match.

The Sun Devils return to action on Sunday at 2 p.m. CT as they will face No. 15 Iowa State in Ames, Iowa.

Among those who apparently have not yet benefited much at all, at least so far, are owners of small businesses who would like to keep offering coverage to their employees but can no longer afford it. They can't afford it because insurers keep jacking their rates up so high every year that more and more of them are dropping employee health benefits altogether.
Prior to the enactment of the Affordable Care Act, those 50 and older, if they could get coverage, faced premiums several times higher than those who are younger and in better health. That same group is also now eligible for subsides that help lower the cost to make it even more affordable.
Why is that man smiling? ...
Hours before Christmas, at exactly 7:00am on December 24th, I was heading to the Emergency Room at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx. Montefiore ...
Tonight after watching President Obama's State of the Union Address and speaking today with White House officials about the proposals the president is making, I can report without hesitation that the president has put forward a domestic agenda people of faith concerned about families, poverty and education can support.
In coming weeks, we can expect the Republican-controlled Congress to push two Obamacare bills that would hike profits for some businesses. What we can't expect, from either Republicans or Democrats, unfortunately, is any effort to help families, even those with insurance, to stay out of bankruptcy court because of mounting medical bills.
Taken together all these changes will probably be good for our health. But change is seldom welcome and transitions are often uncomfortable. There's are some big ones happening in medicine these days.
This was a busy week in politics, as the Republicans in the new Congress began a bout of legislating and President Obama ramped up his agenda in preparation for next Tuesday's big speech to Congress and the country.
As the lineup is shaping up, it looks like it could be similar to previous elections: There will be a long list of equally unappealing candidates. Some dull person will be selected, having little chance to win against any potential Democratic candidate.
Since its passage in 2009, ferocious opposition to the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) had proven a devastatingly effective electoral strategy for Republicans.
Although Form 1095-A is another new frontier in the ACA consumer experience, using effective tools and implementing robust processes can help ensure that the impact is not a negative one.
Welcome to 2015 -- now is a good time to examine the financial changes that will impact you in the days ahead. And it's mostly good news -- some of these changes can put more money in your pocket in 2015.
CNBC should be asking itself why on earth it continues to show such favoritism for the views of market pessimists and short sellers -- indeed, even facilitating such traders profit strategies -- at the expense of their retail TV audience.
One of my resolutions is to help as many people as possible achieve one of the most common resolutions American's make: financial fitness. Was it on your list or should it have been?
In fact, Latinos are the ethnic group that is least likely to have health insurance. Without health insurance, it can be hard to afford even basic preventive health care like check-ups. We can do better for the ones we love, and the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare, can help.
With many states opting not to expand the qualification standards for Medicaid, millions were left with no solutions, caught in what's being called the "coverage gap."

02.11.06 - By Scoop Malinowski: Floyd Mayweather has already given us over a dozen excuses and reasons to not fight Antonio Margarito for the last eight months. Now Floyd has created yet another.
Speaking with David Mayo of the Grand Rapids Press, Mayweather seems to have learned it's the smartest and safest policy to just ignore Margarito when confronted with a question about battling his apparent bogeyman. "I don't really want to talk about this guy (Margarito)," said Mayweather this week. "Because I see certain things that Bob Arum does that don't make any sense. He says I'm the best fighter in the business, I'm the best fighter since Muhammad Ali. But then he's talking about me ducking and dodging a fighter. He kicks me out of his boxing gym, then wants me to fight his fighter. How can you do talk about doing future business with me if you're conducting yourself with disorderly conduct? He's a grumpy old man."
So Floyd says he doesn't want to go to war with Margarito or do business with Arum because Arum is conducting himself disorderly? Yeah, right. Bob Arum is guilty of nothing but only trying to produce a fight which Floyd himself has said many times would be "easy work" and that he'd "punish" Margarito for being on such a lower skill level than himself.
If you recall, Floyd was loudly proclaiming Arum to be the greatest promoter of all-time earlier this year. But when Arum tried to make Floyd fight Margarito three times by offering him a career high $8 million plus PPV upside, Arum suddenly fell out of his good graces. I guess you're only the best promoter to Floyd if you protect him with million dollar safe legacy fights against 35-year-olds with nine losses, and MOST IMPORTANTLY you don't try to force him to fight certain fighters LIKE ANTONIO MARGARITO who can brutally knock him out in front of the whole wide world.
This is all just another lame excuse from a marvelously talented but mysteriously hesitant and reluctant fighter who doesn't seem to have the courage to fight or even commit to fighting Antonio Margarito in the near future.
Ask yourself: If Floyd really wanted to stick it to Bob Arum wouldn't he just sign the $8 million contract, make easy work of the allegedly hyped-up Margarito and be done with it?
What's the hold up? What's the stall? Why the hesitation, Floyd? What is the real reason (or excuse) for avoiding Antonio Margarito?
You already told us... 1.) Your hand hurt and you couldn't fight Margarito in August but you could fight Oscar in September. 2.) Who is Margarito? 3.) He don't bring shit to the table. 4.) If Bob shows me the money I'll fight anybody anywhere, just bring me the money Bob. If it makes dollars it makes sense. 5.) I don't call the shots out of the ring my team does, I call the shots in the ring. 6.) Margarito's resume isn't good enough for him to deserve a fight with me. 7.) I still might fight Margarito in November if I pick his name out of the hat. 8.) It's a smart business decision to not fight you now but we will down the road, I promise you. 9.) Margarito has four losses why should I fight a guy with four losses? 10.) Me and Margarito, we're not fighting to prove to the boxing fans who the best is (youtube video of Floyd stuttering). 11.) I'll fight whoever the fans want me to fight, I want to make the biggest fights possible. 12.) "I'm looking for a household name. I mean, he's a household, we need two household names." 13.) "Floyd Mayweather's an A level, Margarito's D level." 14.) "No come on. We got to realize this. 25,000 homes? If that. And then that's, and that's giving them the benefit of the doubt. And I mean he's supposed to be a Hispanic fighter with Hispanic fans. So I mean, come on man." 15.) "It's about making smart decisions that's gonna move me up a notch, move me up levels." 16.) "Like I said before, I grabbed boxing fans and asked who is this guy (Margarito) and they didn't even know who he was."
But you know who he is Floyd. You know Margarito is a vicious, relentless, unstoppable wrecking machine who has set his fury and passion on destroying you. You know, Floyd, that Margarito has no respect for you and all your bullshit double talk. You know, Floyd, Margarito is 100% confident he will leave you knocked out like Roy Jones. And for some reason you don't want to face it. You can't face that kind of adversity. Not when you can just duck it and blame it all on Arum.
Admit it, Floyd, you're only human like the rest of us. You don't know if you can handle Margarito. You don't know if you can survive against Margarito. Something about this man's presence frightens you, give you the shivers. You have doubts, you have a little fear - that's natural - and you know Margarito is well aware of it. Is that it Floyd?
Don't even try to tell us it's Bob Arum's fault as the reason you don't want to mess with Margarito. We're not buying it.
Words of Wisdom: "I wouldn't have been as good as I am unless I had those (two) losses. The losses give you the character to become a true champion. That proves that you are a true champion - to be able to come back from a loss. Realize your mistake, adjust and come back and win." -- Lennox Lewis.

Hurricane Sandy will be affecting the Pittsburgh Steelers' travel schedule to MetLife Stadium for Sunday's game against the New York Giants. The team will leave Pittsburgh on Sunday morning — a day later than it normally would — for the 4:25 p.m. start time and return to Pittsburgh right after the game Sunday night. The team was booked to stay at the Westin Hotel in Jersey City Saturday night but the hotel is still without power due to the storm. It's basically a 400-mile work commute for the Steelers who will be bussed to the stadium after a meal, then fly another 400 miles back to Pittsburgh after the game ends. New Jersey residents affected by Sandy have been grabbing any extra hotel rooms they can find and combined with the New York Marathon bringing an extra 50,000 visitors to the area, it's no surprise the Steelers couldn't find any other accommodations. The Giants had their own logistical problems of their own this week because of the storm and didn't even have practice until late Wednesday afternoon. Players without power in their New Jersey homes have been bunking at teammates' houses for the duration of the blackouts. Whether or not the Steelers road trip disrupts the visiting players pre-game routines and sleep patterns is a no brainer. How it affects the Steelers on the field Sunday against the defending champs will remain to to be seen. The Giants were 3-1/2 point favorites. I wonder if the spread will change?

|A seroma is defined as a sterile accumulation of serum in a circumscribed location in the tissue. The difference between a seroma and an abscess is that an abscess involves the presence of white blood cells, bacteria, and the breakdown products of both. In other words, an abscess is defined as an infection. A seroma, on the other hand, is just fluid, serum that has accumulated in a dead space in the tissue. It is the result of tissue insult and the product of tissue inflammation and the body's defense mechanisms.

Today I'm giving a working paper exploring a politics of public information that goes beyond a focus on the disclosure of datasets and looks towards interventions into the data infrastructures through which they are produced.
The paper was co-authored with Tim Davies at the University of Southampton and will be delivered at the Open Data Research Symposium as part of the 3rd International Open Government Data Conference in Ottawa. It draws on research undertaken as part of the EU H2020 funded ROUTE-TO-PA project.
The current version of the working paper is available on the symposium website as well as on SSRN. The abstract and slides are included below.

An analysis of data on parliamentary debate over the March - December 2013 period shows a third of Kenya's MPs contributed less than 10 times to debate in Parliament according to Mzalendo's Parliamentarians Debate Participation report.
The Parliamentarians Debate Participation report is compiled by Mzalendo.com based on the official Hansard contributions published by Parliament after each sitting.
The Mzalendo report is an indictment on MPs performance given that participation in House debate is a key metric in ensuring that MPs fulfill their overall responsibility of representation, oversight and legislation.
On the other hand, about a third of the Senators dominated debate in the Senate with each speaking in the house over 100 times. In terms of the coalitions' performance, the Jubilee coalition led the pack in contributions in both the National Assembly and the Senate, taking advantage of its size of representation in Parliament.
The Leader of Majority Hon Aden Duale emerged as the most active contributor to debate in the National Assembly with Hon Amina Abdalla as the leading woman legislator. In the Senate, Senators Kembi Gitura and Elizabeth Ongoro emerged the best debators based on the number of contributions tallied.
Most of the leading debators in both Houses were seasoned legislators but a few new legislators held their own. These included: Honourables Tom Kajwang, Priscilla Nyokabi, Johnson Sakaja, Moses Cheboi and Senator Kipchumba Murkomen.
Every MP and Senator's contribution to the Hansard shows under their profile on Mzalendo portal and the website's managers hope Kenyans will visit their MPs and Senators records to see their overall performance over the period, identify the issues they contributed to and also assess the quality of the contributions put forward.
The actual data is available at via this two links: here as well as here. The Mzalendo website seeks to promote greater public voice and enhance public participation in politics by providing relevant information about the National Assembly and Senate's activities.

Sea-Tac donates 12 tons of dog food
The Seattle Animal Shelter has been given 12.7 tons of bagged dog food that the city's airport used to test a new airport baggage system, officials said.
The Seattle Post Intelligencer reported Wednesday that the Port of Seattle purchased 1,600 bags of dog food in June to test new baggage conveyors at Sea-Tac International Airport.
The dog food is perfect because of the weight and the way it shifts in suitcases, Port spokeswoman Terri-Ann Betancourt said.
The manufacturer of the conveyor system actually recommended using dog food.
The newspaper noted that the $40,000 in dog food was paid for by the airport's capital improvement project
After luggage conveyor systems at Sea-Tac were certified in October, the bags of dog food were warehoused.
We probably would have gotten rid of it sooner had the snowstorms in November and December not happened, Betancourt said.
After all that we said, 'Hey, we have all this dog food.'
The Seattle Animal Shelter is expected to give the bulk of the dog food to area food lockers who can in turn give it to needy dog owners, the newspaper reported.
I'm not sure what the plan for distribution is yet, Northwest Harvest spokeswoman Claire Acey said. "But I can tell you for clients, particularly at the Cherry Street Food Bank in Seattle, their pets are tremendously important to them. We get a lot of requests for dog food.

1 3/4 cups
brown sugar
2/3 cup
1/4 cup
2 teaspoons
ground ginger
2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
1 cup
all-purpose flour
1 cup
whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1/4 teaspoon
baking soda
1 teaspoon
Another update!- I was the first reviewer of this recipe a couple of years ago and I have been enjoying these on a regular basis ever since. Then yesterday I had an epiphany- Brownie Sundae! I topped these warm gingery, gooey delights with some french vanilla ice cream and warm roasted pears in pear caramel sauce. I topped with a few toasted walnuts and a dollop of whiskey whipped cream. Eye-rolling-toe-curling-oh-my-God good! 12/13/14 Im sitting here again eating one after another of these fabulous brownies. I can taste the butter, the brown sugar, the molasses etc... Every ingredient seems to be perfectly balanced with every other ingredient. Jozi is either a baking genius or very lucky because these are perfection. I am a shameless, unapologetic tweaker but my advice is to do these exactly as written the first time. You can always tweak them when you make them again. And you will make them again. I can almost guarantee it.
Good flavor but extremely heavy. More cake like than brownie like. Enjoyable but will probably not make again.

Lovely, spicy, tasty bites. Since my crew loves their ginger baked goods to have a pleasantly warm afterglow, I added a full tablespoon of ginger and several good shakes of cayenne pepper. Then sprinkled the top with sugar to ensure a crackly crust. These didn't disappoint. I'm perplexed by the reviews that call this recipe "cake-like" because mine were nice and chewy, with a thin, shiny crust that shattered when bitten into. To be fair, I need to note that I used only all purpose flour, as I didn't have any whole wheat. Maybe that made the difference? Another possible explanation I can think of is overbaking. They were devoured in no time flat, and one friend who is a major fan of gingersnaps said he actually prefers these because of their chewy texture - the flavor is virtually the same. These are easy to whip up in no time at all - much quicker than making individual cookies. I always keep molasses on hand, and this is just about as good an excuse as any I've found for continuing to do so. A+
These are really good! Very easy. The batter is quite thick, but gently spread it in the 9x13 pan. I baked mine for 35 minutes and have crispy edges and a soft interior. Mine are very much the texture of brownies, not like a cake at all. I read the reviews and added a sprinkling of cayenne and just a pinch of cloves. Also sprinkled the top with some white sugar before baking, which gives a little sparkle to the top. One reviewer mentioned they were too salty...I wonder if that person may have used salted butter and also added the salt in the ingredient list. I used unsalted butter. Also, be sure to sift your baking powder and soda into the flour. Perhaps you tasted a little lump of baking soda. Just guessing. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's a keeper!
These are incredible - chewy, sweet (but not too sweet), the perfect amount of gingery zip. Try these. Love them. As an aside, it did take a little extra time in my oven - almost 40 minutes.
These are outrageously delicious! Perfect just the way they are, we loved them.
I gave this recipe to my 16 yr to make for my b-day present. I had not baked it prior so I was not sure what to expect. (Risky yes) While I enjoyed the flavor, it did need a longer baking time (by at least 10 min) than indicated in the recipe.
These are really good. I found them to have chewy and brownie-like texture. I did have to bake a bit longer (more like 40 minutes) but did not wait until my toothpick came out dry- just clean.

+ - Biologist creates self-healing concrete->
But Jonkers has come up with an entirely new way of giving concrete a longer life. "We have invented bioconcrete — that's concrete that heals itself using bacteria," he says.
Link to Original Source
According to this, it appears that women earn 91.3% of men's salaries among elementary and middle school teachers and make up 81% of the workforce.
This is a panel to determine if the US "employs its technical collection capabilities in a manner that optimally protects our national security and advances our foreign policy while appropriately accounting for other policy considerations, such as the risk of unauthorized disclosure and our need to maintain the public trust."
This isn't supposed to be oversignt. It's entirely for the NSA's benefit.
Well, that's the problem, isn't it? Whoever determined the purpose of this panel (ostensibly, Mr. Obama) missed the point of why Americans are upset. Furthermore, it indicates that the Administration has no intention of changing the status quo. This is why it is newsworthy and why it's to our benefit to know and understand what a "privacy reform panel" looks like. There are other threads discussing how to go about realizing real change (in the broken American political system), so I will refer you to those if you want to talk about changing how and why this panel is the wrong answer to a large problem.
Sorry, the problem with the declaration The free market has fixed this problem is that it only fixed it AFTER I spent my $500 on a really crappy phone...
No, the free market fixes the problem when no one else buys their phone after you spent your $500 and told the rest of us about it. That's the other part of a free market society that some people forget: risk. You weren't forced to but a new phone without researching it first and if you were the first to buy it you just took a risk and in your scenario, it was a bad one.
If Mormons can't see past one dev, can't see that Linus is just one cog in a very large machine, that's their problem and not his.
Don't worry... most of us are fairly even keeled. Bigoted attacks on my religion, I can handle. Ad hominem attacks on my personal views? No problem. Just don't take away my tax credits for charitable contributions. I'd much rather support the homeless than Uncle Sam.
While there is a slight argument to be made as to whether or not it was for "political expediency," those are indeed beliefs and traditions the LDS church has followed at one time or another (speaking to you from the heart and soul of Mormonism in Provo, UT):
Now as far as the Warren Jeffs, 12 year old bonking crowd, yes they're crazy, but no they merely started at the same root of the tree. No original-orthodoxy Mormons are left, they're dead. The rest -- at least much of the rest here in Utah -- seem to want to live their lives with blinders on about the past (and the outside world, help! I'm trapped in a bubble!). Go and ask your bishop about all of these things and he'll, a: sigh, and b: give you a well thought out, and historically accurate accounting of the church's somewhat malleable belief system.
Or as I do for the members of my ward who ask about these things, c) explain what Elder Oaks taught about the two channels of revelation and how understanding the history of the church ends up hinging on how well you and I can access knowledge from God.
My computer can beat up your computer. - Karl Lehenbauer

Youth movement

Lady Knights open season at Sycamore
SYCAMORE—It was a subdued start to the 2014 season, but that was the plan.
With only four girls toeing the line at Afton Forest Preserve in DeKalb for head coach Doug Ecker's varsity lineup, the Lady Knights cross country team didn't factor into the team scoring for the annual Sycamore Invitational, Tuesday. But the four that ran took full advantage of the opportunity.
"It was a good start to the season," Ecker said. "Even though this was an invitational, we tried to downplay it and just find a starting point to begin the season."
Senior Aislinn Lodwig led the way with a 20th overall performance, with a time of 20 minutes, 53 seconds.
"Lodwig had her best race to start off the season. Aislinn has really embraced the leadership role as a senior, with the departure of the senior captains, and it has had a positive impact not only on her teammates but her as well," Ecker said.
Ecker was also pleased with sophomore Sarah Daley's performance, thinking she can make an impact for the varsity squad as the season progresses. Daley's time of 22:12 was good enough for 41st overall.
Senior Jessica Kucera was 54th in 22:32.6, while junior Carly Bartholomew finished 77th with a time of 23:47.2.
The youth movement occurred over the 2.4 mile JV race, where freshman Andrea Wells was second overall with a time of 16:50.1 to lead Kaneland to a third-place team finish. Sophomore Becca Ritchman was seventh overall with a time of 17:39.4, while Grace Dodis also cracked the top 10 with her 10th-place finish in 17:58.8. It was the first race for both Wells and Ritchman, according to Ecker.
"Dodis ran very well and is much improved over last year," Ecker said. "It was nice to see senior Grace Drake (24th, 18:45.8), in only her second year out for cross country, pick up a medal in the JV race."
The girls cross country team heads to the Oregon Invitational Saturday at 9:30 a.m.
