Some severe thunderstorms rolled across much of Minnesota Sunday evening, dumping a few more inches of rain in locations already saturated from the storms of the previous week. Severe thunderstorm warnings were issued for parts of the KNUJ area beginning late Sunday afternoon, with the heavy rain and wind then lasting into the evening. No reports of any major damage have been received at this time. The line of severe storms that blew through Minnesota Saturday morning are being blamed on several house fires that broke out in the Twin Cities area. No injuries have been reported from any of the weekend's storms.

Something interesting is happening in the narrowbody freighter conversions market. Aeronautical Engineers Inc (AEI) of Florida - has seen a run of new orders for Boeing 737 conversions. That is a little surprising given the global economy is in the doldrums, air cargo is suffering from overcapacity and freighter operations are under threat from falling yields and growing belly capacity.
So where are the orders coming from? The answer is: an interesting mixture of customers. In 2012 AEI has had two orders from Russian carrier Atran, a fifth and sixth order from Aviation Capital Group, three for lessor ASL, and one for Air Incheon, a South Korean start-up. All of these orders were for the 737-400 variant.
737-400 feedstock prices are coming down
While this hardly constitutes a flood, it suggests that there is some vibrancy at this end of the market that is not being matched in widebody freighters. "I can't explain it," says Robert Convey, vice-president sales and marketing for AEI. "Our hangar has never been so busy. I thought it was a bubble, but now we are setting up inductions for February and March, so it seems to be continuing."
One possible reason for the relative buoyancy may, perversely, be the increase in belly capacity as passenger carriers continue to expand. "The traditional widebody freight routes are getting large amounts of new belly capacity, and that is why the widebody freighter operators are suffering," Convey says. "But at the other end it still has to be distributed to the final destination, and that is where our freighters come in."
Other reasons may be that regional markets in emerging economies are more resistant to the global chill, or that aircraft that used to perform feeder work are being squeezed out. Examples include the 727, excluded from major gateways in Australia under new noise regulations, and Russian aircraft such as the Antonov An-12, An-26 and Ilyushin Il-76 that are increasingly being banned even in African countries on safety grounds.
Demand from the big three express operators is also a not insignificant factor. The ASL aircraft are destined for subservice at DHL, and the Atran ones will fly for UPS. Convey points to demand from the Brazilian post office and Nigerian government too - both markets relatively immune to cold winds from the global economy.
Last but not least, 737-400 feedstock prices are coming down. Of its 12 aircraft backlog - six under conversion and six orders, Convey says all but two - destined for Africa - are 737-400s. "There is still a small premium compared to the -300, but in the last six to nine months -400 prices have come into the right zone," he says.
Despite all this, one might question if it is a boom for 737s, or a boom for AEI. The company does seem to have the lion's share of the available market in the past year or so. Bedek admits that it is a year since it did a 737 conversion, and its joint venture on the type with GAMECO, of China, has now lapsed. The company says it is "now reviewing ways to reposition itself in the 737 market, including other strategic partnerships".
Meanwhile, Pemco was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection from March until July, as it attempted to shed a loss-making operation in Dothan, Alabama. Kevin Casey, Pemco's president, insists that it never affected its conversion business, however, and on 4 October it announced a deal to convert two International Lease Finance-owned 737-400s for China Postal, to add to seven already converted by Pemco in its fleet.
"Demand is exceptional, even by our standards as the market-leading 737 programme. I have never seen it so busy," Casey says. "We will deliver a dozen 737s this year, and we will soon be announcing enough orders to keep us occupied all next year."
Convey also predicts a strong 2013, though he expects the 737-400 programme to face some stiff new competition. Fortunately, that competition will be coming from AEI's own latest product, the Boeing MD-80 conversion.
The prototype for this freighter had its first flight on 28 September, and Convey is hoping to get its supplemental type certificate by the start of November. From May next year he hopes to have two or three lines running for the type. The company is also rumoured to be close to announcing a conversion programme for the MD-90, which would have one extra pallet and greater range. With feedstock available for less than $1m and the conversion costing just $0.5m, the MD-80 has a similar payload and range to the 737-400, but with a smaller cross-section, which means it cannot take 3.18m (10.4ft) pallets laterally, and can carry only eight of these, or 12 2.74m pallets.
AEI says the Boeing MD-8o conversion is ideal for less developed countries
AEI reckons that given the freighter's low cost, operators will put up with this disadvantage, and also predicts that with its high-mounted engines and relatively low maindeck (making for easy loading) it will be ideal for operations in less developed countries. No orders have been publicly announced for the aircraft, but Convey says it has 15 aircraft lined up for customers from the USA, South America, Africa, the Middle East and Europe. "We are holding off announcing their names until we get our STC," he says, holding to a prediction of more than 200 MD-80 conversions, and admitting it will take away some of the 737 market. "There is not an unlimited number of operators, so they will divide between the two types. It will be interesting to see who goes for which," he says.
A step up from the 737, the 757 conversion market continues to be dominated by the order for 89 for FedEx, which is being steadily worked through by ST Aerospace. Outside of this, the two players are Precision Conversions, of Oregon, and Pemco, the latter certifying a 757-200 combi earlier this year, with four delivered so far.
Precision has also just completed its combi, which is undergoing flight tests, the first of two planes for Air Transport Services Group that will fly for the US Air Mobility Command. Military uses apart, Brian McCarthy, vice-president marketing and sales at Precision, sees a market for the combi in remote regions of the northern hemisphere, for example in Russia or Canada: "any place with long thin routes, especially where there are seasonal changes in passenger load, so you can keep cargo strong and hedge your bets".
Apart from the combi, Precision converted four other 757s this year, two for SF Express, of China, one for ATSG and a fourth one for an undisclosed Russian customer. The company is in the process of completing certification in Russia, and McCarthy has high hopes for this market. Otherwise, Precision says enquiries are coming from South America, the Philippines, Hong Kong, South Korea and Australia, as well as China, where the company is planning to open a second line at joint venture TAECO next to meet expected demand. McCarthy sees the aircraft, with its 2,800-3,200nm range, as being ideally suited to the sector lengths in China.
As with the 767, a problem for the 757 has been feedstock but McCarthy says values have been falling recently in the expectation that American Airlines and United are about to retire significant numbers of the aircraft from their fleets. Many are the more modern version of the aircraft with winglets, and McCarthy is therefore pleased to have just received certification to convert such aircraft. "They can add 10,730lb of payload [4.9t] or increase the range by 200nm," he says. "That is enough to fly from Clark Air Base [in the Philippines] to Hawaii, and I expect these aircraft to be a big part of the feedstock pool in the future."

More than 2 million people are currently serving time in America's prisons. Over half a million are released back into the community every year. Many inmates have addiction or mental health disorders, or both; according to one study, over 60 percent of offenders tested at the time of arrest admitted to using or were found to have been using at least one illicit drug. Recidivism rates are high, with 67 to 90 percent being arrested in the three-to-five-year period following release. The revolving door of arrest, imprisonment, release to the community, and re-arrest has spawned interest in prisoner re-entry programs—programs that provide services to inmates when they are in prison and after they are released to help them integrate back into society.
In this chapter of the Anthology, Will Bunch, a journalist with the Philadelphia Daily News, looks at Health Link, an early prisoner re-entry program that ran between 1992 and 2002 and was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The program tested the idea of caseworkers helping recently released inmates with jobs, education, health, housing and other social services. It was evaluated by means of a study whereby roughly half of the released inmates were provided these case management services and half were not, and at the end of a year, the two groups were compared for rates of recidivism and drug use, among other outcomes.

Warm Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Apples and Cranberries
Serves: 4 to 6
The flavor of uncooked Brussels sprouts is sweet and fresh, which is why I love this recipe. The maple syrup and wine vinegar dressing — bursting with diced apples, walnuts and bacon (if you like) — is prepared sizzling hot and poured over thinly shaved, raw sprouts to soften and season them. The results are a simple, vivid and delicious dish, perfect for your holidays or pretty much any day!
- 1 tablespoon mustard seeds Add to list
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar Add to list
- 14 to 18 medium-sized Brussels sprouts Add to list
- 3 strips bacon, diced (optional) Add to list
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil Add to list
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced leeks or minced shallot Add to list
- 1 crisp apple such as Cameo, Honeycrisp, Pink Lady or Gala, diced Add to list
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, hazelnuts or pecans Add to list
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries Add to list
- 1/4 cup maple syrup Add to list
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds Add to list
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves Add to list
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste Add to list
These ingredients are:
Corn-free Dairy-free Egg-free Gluten-free Peanut-free Soy-free Wheat-free
Place the mustard seeds in a small bowl and cover with the vinegar. Let soak for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. Strain the soaked seeds and set aside; reserve the vinegar.
Trim the stem ends of the sprouts and remove any tough outer leaves. Run the sprouts through the 4-millimeter blade of your food processor; or simply cut them thinly, crosswise, with a knife. Place the shaved sprouts in a bowl.
Cook the bacon until crisp and drain on paper towels.
In a medium sauté pan, heat the oil over medium heat and add the leeks and apples. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the leeks start to become translucent. Add the walnuts, cranberries, mustard seeds, reserved vinegar, maple syrup, celery seeds and cloves. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until the dressing is nice and hot, about 1 minute.
Immediately pour the hot dressing over the shaved Brussels sprouts and toss in the cooked bacon if you are using it.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, and maybe a splash of vinegar or oil, if desired. The salad is perfect now but will be optimal for eating after resting for a few minutes to soften the sprouts and blend the flavors.

Apple Inc. is trying to buy Wall Street's love -- but it won't work.
Apple (AAPL) reported only so-so earnings results after the bell on Tuesday, further disappointing investors who are growing accustomed to hearing the same old song from CEO Tim Cook: We are working on promising new products.No, we're not going to tell you what they are. Yes, you will really love them. No, I can't say when. Any more questions?
Apple's stock initially rose about 5% in after-hours trading on Apple's pledge of a much higher cash-return platform for stockholders. But the laughing gas quickly wore off and the shares had retreated by the end of Apple's conference call.
Apple's stock has plunged more than 40% over the past few months, reversing the saga of a stock that exceeded $700 last September and only seemed capable of going up and up. A
pple's stock ended the regular trading session Tuesday ahead nearly 2% to $406.13.
After the closing bell, Apple announced that it was increasing its dividend by 15% and raising its share-buyback plan by $50 billion.
Apple is mistaken if it thinks those cosmetic moves will make up for its failure -- so far -- to declare the launch of a major NEW product under the Tim Cook regime. Investors want to see news of a new product, not another iPhone or iPad wrinkle.
Cook acknowledged that the drop in Apple's stock price has been "very frustrating to all of us" during the Apple conference call. He added that Apple will concentrate on delivering "innovative products"
Cook vowed that Apple will eventually introduce "some amazing new hardware, software services that we can't wait to introduce this fall and throughout 2014."
Wall Street is looking for enhancements of the iPhone -- which is money in the bank for Apple -- as well as new versions of the iPad.
For the three months ended in March, Apple had net income of $9.5 billion, or $10.09, against net income of $11.6 billion, or $12.30 a share for the year-ago period. Revenue jumped 11% to $43.6 billion.
Apple shipped 37 million iPhones and 19.5 million iPads, Wall Street had projected 36 million iPhones and 18 million iPads.
What do you make of all of these pronouncements and new data?
Apple is playing a waiting game for now. It is treading waer with Wall Street, biding its time until it is ready to unveil its "amazing" new products.
Wall Street will be watching and waiting.

Correct me if I'm wrong, some books say the relative strength of the bishop is higher by a fraction of a point (1/4) -- 3 1/4 or whatever fraction, and queen is 9 points, and the king is 3 points.
Obviously it's a point of view but IMHO the King ought to be set at infinity. Or, at least a point higher than the sum of points of all your pieces on board at any time.
I'm having a bad month
Well said!
Turtle, with respect to the rating system, all that matters is whether you win, lose, or draw. You could have ten pieces left or zero pieces left at the end of the game and it doesn't matter at all.
Well I think it matters if you have ten or zero. If you have zero left at the end of the game you obviously lost, whereas if you had ten, you might have won. Actually, I guess if you have zero pieces left you weren't even playing chess.
I haven't won any games my time-out yet, but I've noticed that this happens quite often and tends to inflate ratings. That's one of the reasons I prefer the 14 day option; chess should be about chess, not a clock.
My rating is somewhat inflated, though. I recently won a game to fool's mate, I kid you not.
Actually, I guess if you have zero pieces left you weren't even playing chess.
lol. You got me there!

If you are talking about psychological denial, then confronting the person will not do any good - as the truth is too painful for them to accept.
Are you trying to baffle me with knowledge? If I'm in denial, won't confronting me just strengthen my denial (even if that is the common approach)?
I think I'd prefer to be guided to the truth at a pace that I could handle.
well, if everyone could collude, would that solve the problem?
Wouldn't they need to overcome the denial as well as confront the issue?
confront :D always
why does that not surprise me :)
It depends if someone is close to me, and if they have a habits of lostening
That's the old contradiction, everybody expect you to be honest, but get angry when you tell em the truth.
You sure you prefer to be confronted? I tried but it got worse.
So I need to be patience, is that it? And keep on reminding? Cmon tell me directly,its easier to confront men than women in denial. I need to keep on confronting her?
So leaving is one way huh. I get you. I heard you. Thank you
Sadly but true. It's the right thing to do. I just wish there is other kind method,but I guess,sometimes you need it in order to be kind.
ah, you say that now...
…would take a true friend to make that choice...
I would deny it.
It depends if it harmless and a reason of their happiness, than why not let them be in denial. Otherwise, I have same stance as yours :)
I would confront if I care enough and hound them to death possibly or until they throw me out. Otherwise I will just let it be.

Big News: H&H TV Is Back!
We get a lot of letters at H&H, but none so passionate as those from our TV fans. One of the country's longest running and most respected design and decorating shows has been in reruns for the past few years, but that doesn't seem to have stopped our viewers from burning a candle. "When will you have new shows?" wrote Leslie Minier. "Please advise, as this is my favourite design show." Lise Goyer virtually begged us to tape some fresh episodes. "I am watching the show almost every day, so I've seen every show at least three times!"
Well I've got great news for Lise, Leslie and everyone else who's watched the old shows so much they can lip-synch the dialogue. Tonight at 9pm you can watch the premiere of H&H Online TV! Check out magnificent home tours with Lynda Reeves and Suzanne Dimma. And watch some of your other favourite bloggers: get design advice from Cameron MacNeil, watch Claire Tansey demonstrate recipes for entertaining, steal Michael Penney's DIY projects and more. We'll unveil a shiny new episode each week in our Online TV section. (That's Jason behind the lens in these shots: he's our chief cameraman and editor.)
I'm already loving the promise of a web-based show. Though we have a decent-sized television and a new BluRay player at home, we're old-school when it comes to frills: basic cable, no PVR and I still don't know how to program the VCR. But with web TV, it doesn't matter. I can tune in anytime, not when some network tells me to. I can catch up on back episodes if I miss a week. Or I can replay a segment as many times as I want.
So here's how web TV works. Each show lasts about 12 minutes and consists of 3 segments (topics include DIY, Home Tours, Ask A Designer, Food, etc.). We'll release one episode (that's 3 segments) each week, which you can watch whenever it's handy for you (tell your boss you're busy boosting your property value!). Here's where it gets very cool — and light years better than conventional TV. After a week, that show will be archived on our site so you can browse all of the segments to zero in on your favourite topics or hosts. That means you can create your own personal viewing package: maybe start with a Home Tour, then watch a Food segment, then rock out on DIY for 3 more segments. Or skip all the food and only watch Home Tours. Or... I think you get the idea. With web TV, you never have to fight for the remote.
Doing a show without a network meant we, uh, had nowhere to shoot. So in true DIY fashion, we created our own set.
This is the area sandwiched between our merchandise and art departments and the staff kitchen. (Wave if you see a bleary-eyed editor making a chai tea — that's me at around 3pm!)
Here's Joel working his styling magic to create a pretty vignette with objects found around the office.
Not everything looks so pretty: our table was looking too low on camera so we improvised and propped it up on old paint cans.
That's Cameron working on a lamps segment with Isabella and Sheri, our producer and director.
Here's Sheri again working on the debut DIY segment. I don't want to give too much away, but this project is dead easy, super-cheap and the finished product is both practical and charming.
Hello Michael Penney, online purveyor of affordable style ideas and the show's DIY guy. Michael is wonderfully obsessed with decorating. Within two days of starting at H&H as an intern once upon a time, his little office looked more polished than my house!
That's it for behind-the-scenes photos, but I just want to make sure we're all clear on one thing. The new online show will be fabulous: packed with beautiful homes and stylish ideas. But whatever you do, don't sit down to watch it on Global or HGTV or any other network. The only place you can get it is ONLINE (sorry, didn't mean to shout!) at houseandhome.com/tv.
If you have any questions about Online TV, please leave me a comment. And be sure to let us know what you think of the new online show!
P.S. Renovation and DIY fans are in for a bonus treat: we've started a new Renovator's Notebook blog. Staffer Catherine MacIntosh is remodeling her new house and will share inspiration, ideas and lessons learned along the way. Check our her first post on the demolition and follow her every second Wednesday to get your reno fix — without all that nasty dust.

U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal and Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, both of Connecticut, want the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to further improve the food packaging labeling rules the agency proposed earlier this year. Blumenthal gave an example of one improvement they'd like to see.
"Tell consumers how much sugar is in the product, not in grams, but in teaspoons," said Blumenthal. "Americans don't understand what grams are. They do understand teaspoons."
The lawmakers also want more honest definitions of food marketing terms like all natural, whole wheat and healthy. The FDA's proposed new labeling rules are aimed at updating serving size requirements among other changes. In a written statement, an FDA spokesperson says the agency values input from members of Congress as they finalize the new labeling standards.

The Minnesota Wild have sent defenseman Mike Lundin on a conditioning assignment to their AHL affiliate in Houston. The move was made on Friday. Lundin hasn't played yet this season because of a back problem. He was placed on injured reserve on Sept. 30. The 27-year-old, who played at Apple Valley High School in the Twin Cities, signed with the Wild this season after leaving the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Wild also reassigned right wing Casey Wellman to Houston and placed defenseman Marco Scandella on injured reserve. Scandella, defenseman Marek Zidlicky and left wing Guillaume Latendresse are all out with concussions.

This is a brief introduction on a series, "Mixing / Mastering". I'll be sharing my visions so you can feel more confident improving your mixes and go deeper on your knowledge of the subject along the way.
Mixing may seem an overwhelming task (and it is an art form by itself) but it doesn't mean that you cannot learn a few principles along this series to get you confident in trying it yourself and practice on your own compositions. The same applies to a musician or a composer, it's great to have a degree, but in case you don't, you'll still be able to compose or play and get better at it. Learn to use the tools needed for the job and tune you ears into it. I hope you'll take great benefit from the articles and they may give you extra finesse to your mixes.

Wes Anderson's latest, the love story Moonrise Kingdom, is set in the whimsical world of New Penzance, where khaki scouts led by a dedicated math teacher/scout leader, a local sheriff, and a pair of apoplectic parents set out to find two adolescent lovers who have run away on a romantic adventure in the island's thick forests. In the mix of a heady ensemble that boasts Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Frances McDormand and Tilda Swinton, it is heralded character actor Bob Balaban who serves as the story's quirky narrator, playing the New Penzance's local historian/weather authority. His role has expanded into the film's web-based marketing, where he's guided fans through behind-the-scenes featurettes as well as the movie's lovely website.

Never let it be said that "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" doesn't deliver what it promises. There's plenty of salmon fishing, and sure enough, it happens in the arid, rocky Yemen region. The film tells the tale of how it happened, a majorly expensive orchestration of continental fish moving and high-stakes water management. That said, the story ends up not quite going where one may think it's headed. And that's not really meant in a good way. One-time Weinstein-driven Oscar-bait director Lasse Hallström delivers a competent, if forgettable mishmash of the unlikely. In the mix there's current events concern, travelogue escapism, and romance movie procedural. And don't forget religious axioms and terrorist intrigue. Hallström, to his credit, knows just when to spin the spinner »

Mark Millar is a controversial figure in the world of comics. With two of his comic book series (Kick-Ass and Wanted) getting glossy, star-studded movie adaptations, some comic fans have accused Millar of being more interested in making movies than books, and only doing the latter to get into the former. Millar's latest move at self-promotion further supports this claim as Heat Vision has revealed a teaser clip for Millar's latest comic series Supercrooks. Directed by Timecrimes helmer Nacho Vigalando, the video below sets up the world of Supercrooks, where a batch of supervillains decide to steer clear of an America overpopulated by caped crusaders and instead head to Europe. Supercrooks centers on a band of superpowered thieves who decide to rob a retired American supervillain in his Spanish villa. In the mix there will be two cage-fighters, a pair of brothers, the protagonist's nagging girlfriend who is a former »

Christina Aguilera to Perform National Anthem at Superbowl
Update: Christina Aguilera flubbed the lyrics to the National Athem at the Super Bowl.
The Superbowl is about to get "dirrty."
Christina Aguilera is set to perform the National Anthem at the upcoming Super Bowl in Texas on February 6th. The five-time Grammy winner performed as part of the Super Bowl Halftime show in 2000 alongside Enrique Iglesias and Phil Collins, but this will be her first time singing "The Star Spangled Banner" for the big game.
Carrie Underwood performed the National Anthem at the 2010 Super Bowl, preceded by Jennifer Hudson in 2009. The Black Eyed Peas will perform the Super Bowl Halftime show this year as the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Green Bay Packers.
Since Aguilera's divorce with music executive Jordan Bratman, her husband of five years, the diva has entered into a relationship with 'Burlesque' set assistant Matt Rutler. Aguilera, 30, says raising her three-year-old son Max is her top priority right now, but that hasn't stopped the 'Beautiful' singer from having a good time.
Aguilera was allegedly "wasted" at Jeremy Renner's birthday party, an event to which she was never invited in the first place. Renner's reps said the singer "was enjoying herself" but noted that contrary to reports, the singer was never passed out in his bed.

Hopefully, now that C. Aguilerra is fat, she will get some clothes that fit her instead of doing what Mariah Carey does and try to fit her size 16 body into a size 6 outfit!!! Aguilera looks like Snooki with blonde hair now!!! (Joan Rivers said that and it's true.)

sing it chrissy...DON'T scream it.
- Monday 24 JanuaryBy KR
Stu, you know the girl is gonna wail with riffs that will make Jennifer Hudson cry while she rips that song to shreds. She'll add at least 50 extra notes that were never written into the song. One can only hope she forgets the words and slips into 'America the Beautiful'. Now THAT'S entertainment!!

The Black Eyed peas . And Christina Aguilera . They should just change the name to the Trash Bowl .
- Monday 24 JanuaryBy Steve
I agree Carter .Why are the letting that skank sing our National Anthem . She is not the right kind of person . They could have found a descent performer some one not so trashy .
- Monday 24 JanuaryBy Xerxes
Christina Aguilera's got the pipes, nice of her to share with us.
- Tuesday 25 January
She can't hit the upper registers anymore . Tweens with Beiber crush and a tin ear ask your parents what " Hitting notes " means . Or google it . Oh well , one can only hope a boob pops out .
- Tuesday 25 JanuaryBy dragodolce
The only reason they asked her is because she is originally from Pittsburgh. I'm sure most Steelers fans would rather see The Clarks sing the anthem though!

Hatchet Face can sing but she over does it sometimes.

And she screwed up the words. When will we learn that celebrities are idiots?

Defective Merchandise. Soo Can we get a refund.
Hmmm. Wonder if she is going to find her 'true love'
in the Superbowl Locker Room....Lot's of inventory to
hit on. Her house is big enough so she can handle another
great love. Hide the kid in a closet... What a lo life
excuse for being a celebrity....

Why am I not surprised that Christina was going to oversing and botch the National Anthem that she has sang before?
- Monday 07 FebruaryBy doris
Christina has a terrible voice. And to flub the lyrics is a unpatriotic. And she didn't even scream the correct tune. Don't know why singers have to have their own rendition of our national anthem. Sing it like it was written!

July 30: Chick-fil-A's president and CEO, Dan T. Cathy, told the Biblical Recorder, a Baptist journal, in early July that the company was "very much supportive of the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit." In a radio interview in June, Cathy said, "I think we are inviting God's judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say, 'We know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage.'"

Coming Soon: MINI "Black Line" Exterior Trim
While the Chrome Line interior and exterior packages have long been a staple of spec'ing any new MINI, owners looking for less bling have had to turn to folks like Todd Pearson to get the glair off some of the MINI's shiny details. It would appear MINI is now seeing the appeal and will soon be introducing a "Black Line" set of exterior details.
Including the rear taillight trim rings, the rear fog light trim ring, the side scuttles and the headlight trim rings, the "Black Line" will let you take your MINI darker. Look for this to show up as an available option in the Configurator some time soon, and once it does, these parts should be available at your local MINI parts desk and elsewhere for retrofit. No word yet on whether there will be a matching "Black Line" interior package.

"A FRESH AND UNVARNISHED PORTRAIT OF A FASCINATING, TALENTED, AND DEEPLY FLAWED FAMILY."—Boston HeraldLaurence Leamer was granted unheralded access to private Kennedy papers, and he interviewed family and old friends, many of whom had never been interviewed before, for this incredible portrait of the women in America's "royal family." From Bridget Murphy, the foremother who touched shore at East Boston in 1849, to the intelligent, independent Kennedy women of today, Laurence Leamer tells their unforgettable stories.Here are the private thoughts of Kathleen, the flirtatious debutante in prewar England . . . the truth behind Joe Kennedy's insistence that his mildly retarded daughter, Rosemary, be lobotomized . . . the real story behind Joan and Ted's whirlwind romance . . . Jackie's desire for a divorce from JFK in the 1950s . . . Pat Lawford's disastrous Hollywood marriage . . . how Caroline discovered her cousin David's death by overdose, and more.Tough enough to withstand the unimaginable, these Kennedy women soldier on in the name of their extraordinary family and what they believe is right."MASTERFUL . . . AN ENDLESSLY FASCINATING READ . . . A wealth of beautifully rendered social detail, at times reading like a realist novel by Edith Wharton . . . [A] page-turner from start to finish."—The Dallas Morning News

It's a winter of discontent for small-business owners, at least when it comes to politics and the federal government.
A new survey by Manta, an online community for small businesses, found that 54 percent of small-business owners are dissatisfied with this year's slate of presidential candidates. When asked which candidate was the biggest supporter of small businesses, 32 percent said President Barack Obama, 20 percent said Ron Paul, and 16 percent said Mitt Romney.
When asked who they plan to vote for, 34 percent said Obama, 17 percent said Romney, 14 percent said Paul, 10 percent said Rick Santorum, and 9 percent said Newt Gingrich. (The survey was conducted before Gingrich's victory in the South Carolina primary.)
Just like the types of businesses they run, small-business owners are all over the map when it comes to their political opinions, it appears.
There's also no consensus on what's the biggest issue facing small businesses. Tax policy was named by 17 percent of small-business owners in the Manta survey, followed by 16 percent who said access to credit, 15 percent who said health care, and 15 percent who said unemployment.
Small-business owners, however, tend to be optimists—otherwise, they wouldn't take the risk of starting their own businesses. So despite their dissatisfaction with Washington, 53 percent said they expect the outlook for small businesses will improve after the November election.
Jim Jansik, owner of Go Green Printing in Worthington, Ohio, said he's "confident that as the election approaches, small business will rise in importance for politicians because we are a critical piece of the overall health and wellness of the U.S. economy."
