The trail to a better tomorrow is hard to find for many of us in this day and age. Yet, we're in danger of losing the American dream all together if we continue to follow U.S. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers' lead. Look at the economic mess we're in, clearly government can do better by us in the 5th Congressional District of Eastern Washington.
I seek to represent you for the first time. The incumbent wants a fourth term.
Last Sunday's Union-Bulletin featured a column written by McMorris Rodgers. I appreciate the opportunity to present another perspective for I was at the very town hall she cited.
For the record, it was in Spokane and about 70 of her supporters attended. Facts are important in my world, as I spent a career in local TV news. People at the town hall heard McMorris Rodgers say she got into politics right out of college. So much for term limits. Not a word of that was uttered.
It's good to have a convenient memory when one is a professional politician. The incumbent is part of the political establishment that got us into the current mess. I'm one of you, now an organic farmer, a citizen of this great state who sees a need for common sense government with a representative working on our behalf again.
This contrast between candidates defines the threat to the American Dream. Ask yourself if you support the status quo or someone who is a fresh face on the political scene when we need it the most.
Which candidate knows you better? I've lived in the Spokane area for 25 years. My outdoor show, Romeyn's Domain, took me just about everywhere in Eastern Washington. I know the nooks and crannies, the people and the potential. During this campaign, I have been in all 12 counties of the district listening and learning. A representative needs to be in touch with the people or we loose the American Dream.
McMorris Rodgers talks again and again about a balanced budget. Sounds good, but have you heard any details? Ask her to explain why she voted for the huge federal deficits of the Bush era? Look in the mirror seniors; did you get a cost of living raise last year? She did. Members of Congress are free to turn down the money. We need a representative from Eastern Washington who understands people are hurting at home and is ready to lead by example.
The budget deficit is a danger to our national security. Let's make sure any new federal spending is offset by a corresponding decrease in federal spending. I'm a fiscally responsible Democrat, because we need to pay for our wants and needs. We don't need new taxes on the middle class, the monies are already in the system. Spending tax dollars wisely is the job of congress.
Beyond the human cost in Afghanistan, the borrowed money and tax dollars invested there are needed at home. Every time the incumbent votes to fund the war, she is funding nation building. We're using our dollars to build irrigation canals and roads in Afghanistan. I say we build the next four lane stretch of U.S. Highway 12 and phase two of the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project. That's infrastructure investment that makes sense for America .
We can get back on our feet again by producing goods at home. Only when we stop the exodus of jobs overseas will we get people back to work. When people are working, they pay income tax, pay into Social Security and have money to spend. That's the way to a better life for all of us.
We need representatives who believe in talking through differences for the good of the country. The incumbent votes 97 percent of the time with her party. Good ideas come from Republicans and Democrats alike. If we continue to elect professional politicians who put the party first and corporate profits before people, then the gridlock and economic mess we see around us will further threaten the American Dream.
Fortunately, there is another way to go. Voters have that choice in this election.Daryl Romeyn, D-Spokane, is a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Peanut Butter Honeybees – LOVE IT!! <3
"The Genius of Swarms"
By Peter Miller, National Geographic Staff
"A single ant or bee isn't smart, but their colonies are. The study of swarm intelligence is providing insights that can help humans manage complex systems, from truck routing to military robots.
The bees' rules for decision-making—seek a diversity of options, encourage a free competition among ideas, and use an effective mechanism to narrow choices…
…Consider the way Google uses group smarts to find what you're looking for. When you type in a search query, Google surveys billions of Web pages on its index servers to identify the most relevant ones. It then ranks them by the number of pages that link to them, counting links as votes (the most popular sites get weighted votes, since they're more likely to be reliable). The pages that receive the most votes are listed first in the search results. In this way, Google says, it "uses the collective intelligence of the Web to determine a page's importance."
Wikipedia, a free collaborative encyclopedia, has also proved to be a big success, with millions of articles in more than 200 languages about everything under the sun, each of which can be contributed by anyone or edited by anyone. "It's now possible for huge numbers of people to think together in ways we never imagined a few decades ago," says Thomas Malone of MIT's new Center for Collective Intelligence. "No single person knows everything that's needed to deal with problems we face as a society, such as health care or climate change, but collectively we know far more than we've been able to tap so far."
…"A honeybee never sees the big picture any more than you or I do," says Thomas Seeley, the bee expert. "None of us knows what society as a whole needs, but we look around and say, oh, they need someone to volunteer at school, or mow the church lawn, or help in a political campaign."
If you're looking for a role model in a world of complexity, you could do worse than to imitate a bee."
"BEE" – by Rose-Lynn Fisher
"The first time I looked at a bee's eye magnified I was amazed to see a field of hexagons, just like honeycomb. I wondered, is this a coincidence or a clue? Is it simply that hexagons are ubiquitous in nature, or is there a deeper correspondence between the structure of the bee's vision and the structure she builds – in other words, similar frequencies being expressed in similar form? This got me pondering on the connection between vision and action at a more abstract, metaphoric level. Is there a parallel kind of encoding relevant to humanity? At a refined level of our own nature, does our deeper capacity to see and to do correspond with an intrinsic structuring?"
To promote Britain's Plan Bee campaign, UK winery Banrock Station created the world's first bee-powered billboard, composed of 10,000 live bees. Plan Bee aims to campaign against the use of bee-killing pesticides and to inspire people to help bees in their own gardens.
"THE BEEKEEPER" – experimental documentary by Richard Robinson
"…but whatever the intended metaphor for taking bees into space, one thing is clear – when the minors used the canaries to test the mines for methane gas… they knew that if the canaries died, the mines weren't safe to go in – so they would stay home and not go into the mines. But the bees as the new canaries in the coal mine…things are a little be different. We don't have the option that the coal miners did. The coal mine is now the whole planet and there's no where else to go."
TED TALK – Dennis vanEngelsdorp: a plea for bees
"Please join us this Sunday July 3rd to learn why our project to get urban beekeeping approved in Los Angeles is so critical! Meet Chelsea and Rob McFarland and others from Backwards Beekeepers at the MVCC Green Booth at the Mar Vista Farmers Market from 9AM to 2:00 PM. Get the info on our July 16th screening of Vanishing of the Bees!
Over the last three years, more than one in three honeybee colonies collapsed nationwide, a phenomenon now called Colony Collapse Disorder or CCD. According to the USDA, about one-third of our food is thanks to the work of bees, making CCD a huge food security issue. And while there is no one smoking gun causing CCD, scientists now widely agree that it is a result of a combination of factors, made manifest by industrial beekeeping which involves artificial insemination of queen bees, trucking thousands of hives great distances to pollinate crops, exposing bees to countless pesticides, and interfering with the species natural defenses by treating them with miticides and antibiotics and feeding them high fructose corn syrup. This deadly cocktail has made bees incredibly vulnerable and on the brink of collapse. That is, only if we fail to act, if we fail to recognize this disaster in the making and don't take strong action to counter the slow march to extinction.
Mar Vista is actively working toward becoming a more sustainable place to live. Los Angeles currently outlaws beekeeping, and the city's policy is to exterminate all feral bees. With worldwide bee populations threatened with Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) and urban beekeeping more popular than ever, this policy needs to change. Feral bees, being subject to natural selection but not to the rough treatment and chemicals of commercial beekeeping, are far more robust than their commercial cousins. As commercial colonies collapse at an alarming rate, it is crucial that this population be protected.
Luckily the Mar Vista Community Council is conducting a feasibility study for a Urban Beekeeping Pilot Project."
Will You Help Legalize Urban Beekeeping in Mar Vista?
"As the national interest in urban beekeeping grows, cities like Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Portland, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, and Seattle have joined the movement and legalized the practice. These cities recognize just how important bees are to the future of our way of life.
Yet, as bees are quickly vanishing due to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), some cities like Los Angeles have yet to legalize urban beekeeping. In the Mar Vista community of L.A., a group of activists is ready to change that. Chelsea and Rob McFarland recently started a petition on Change.org asking the Mar Vista Community Council to support beekeeping in the region and work to repeal Los Angeles Municipal Code 50.03, which makes beekeeping illegal.
Working in collaboration with the Mar Vista Community Council Green Committee and Backwards Beekeepers, the McFarlands started honeylove.org to raise awareness and gain support for the legalization of urban beekeeping in Mar Vista and Los Angeles as a whole. After speaking in front of the Mar Vista Community Council, Chelsea and Rob gained unanimous approval of a feasibility study on legalizing beekeeping.
Their work is certainly important — bees are responsible for pollinating about one-third of America's food supply. Without bees, we wouldn't be able to enjoy staples of our diets like apples, nuts, soybeans, broccoli, and cucumbers, as well as some of the tastiest flowering crops out there, such as peaches, cherries, blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, citrus fruits, and melons. Even our cattle, which feed primarily on alfalfa, rely on bees to pollinate their food. Even President Obama supports urban beekeeping — he keeps two beehives on the White House lawn.
While the Mar Vista Community Council approved the feasibility study, they've yet to fully legalize beekeeping in the community. That's where the McFarlands' petition comes in. You can help the couple push for legal beekeeping in Mar Vista. Add your signature to the petition, and enable the citizens of Mar Vista to play their part in saving our food system through urban beekeeping."

Passing: Paul Thompson
11-26, 109 yds, 1 INT
Rushing: Adrian Peterson
220 carries, 1,104 yds, 14 TD
Receiving: Malcolm Kelly
33 catches, 471 yds, 2 TD
Star of the offense: Junior RB Adrian Peterson
Player that has to step up and become a star: Senior OT
Chris Messner
Unsung star on the rise: Sophomore WR Juaquin Iglesias
Best pro prospect: Peterson
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Peterson, 2) Messner, 3)
WR Malcolm Kelly
Strength of the offense: Running back, receiver size
Weakness of the offense:
Certainty on the offensive line, quarterback
What was about to be a strength is now a glaring weakness.
Rhett Bomar was every bit the big-name recruit as Adrian
Peterson when he signed on a few years ago, and now the Sooners
have to scramble to find a replacement after the sophomore was
kicked off the team for violating NCAA rules. The backup situation
goes from sketchy
to a problem now that JUCO transfer Joey Halzle has to be ready to fly right away.
Wide receiver Paul Thompson is back
under center in the emergency situation.
The key to the unit: Can there possibly be another
year of eligibility for Jason White or Josh Heupel?
Quarterback Rating: 6
Projected Starter
- Paul Thompson, Sr. - 11-26, 42%, 109 yds, 1 INT
The starter going into the 2005 season, Thompson will forever be
known as the quarterback who lost the home opener against TCU.
He moved to receiver with the emergence of Rhett Bomar where he
caught 11 passes for 106 yards, but he's back in the mix
at quarterback with good size and tremendous speed. He's getting
a crash course in being the starter again and should add more
mobility to the position.
Top Backups
- Joey Halzle, Soph.
The JUCO transfer enrolled early and looked good enough to
eventually be a solid number two man, and now he'll get a crash
course into being the possible starter with Rhett Bomar off the
team. He struggled once the OU
defense turned the heat up and needs more time in the system to
be even close to strong enough to be an adequate fill-in for
Bomar, but he's tall and very fast.
- Rhett Bomar, Soph. - 167-308, 54%, 2,018 yds, 10 TD, 10
INT, 90 carries, 176 yds, 4 TD
On the verge of becoming a star, Bomar got kicked off the team
for violating NCAA rules taking payments for a phony job.
The common national perception was that Bomar, one of the
nation's top recruits in 2004, had a lousy season because he
didn't put up Jason White-like numbers. While he didn't have a
fantastic year and was lousy against Texas, he wasn't bad
showing toughness and improvement from game to game in his
decision making and accuracy. He's a good-sized, mobile passer
who isn't afraid to pound out tough yards when needed, and was
just emerging into a steady leader before getting booted.
- Sam Bradford, Fr.
With good speed and great size at 6-5 and 200 pounds, Bradford
is an athletic recruit who'll get a crash course in the offense
once he arrives this August. He threw for 2,422 yards and 19
touchdowns last year as an Oklahoma high school all-star.
Running Backs
Adrian Peterson is the best back in college football and
should be a threat for 2,000 yards if he can stay healthy. The
backup situation is a question mark needing to see what top
recruits DeMarco Murray, Mossis Madu and Chris Brown can bring
this fall. Allen Patrick was the number two back throughout
spring, but the former defensive back should quickly get pushed
aside by the young stars. Longtime starting fullback J.D.
Runnels will be replaced by 242-pound Dane Zaslaw.
The key to the unit: Finding a steady number two and
three back to keep Adrian Peterson from wearing down.
Running Back Rating: 10
Projected Starters
- Adrian Peterson, Jr. - 220 carries, 1,104 yards, 5.0
ypc, 14 TD, 9 catches, 50 yards
The best player in college football and the likely number one pick in
the draft if/when he decides to come out next season, the
franchise back has to stay healthy for a full season. He had
problems with an ankle injury during the middle part of last
year carrying it a mere 16 times over a four-game span, and then
got healthy and ripped up the back half of the season with
four straight 100-yard days highlighted by a breathtaking
237-yard performance against Oklahoma State. He's a tremendous
mix of 6-2 size, warp speed, and a warrior's mentality. His
running style is a bit too upright and he takes a few too many
big shots, but that's nitpicking for the NFL types to worry
about. Expect him to be used more in the passing game this year.
- Fullback Dane Zaslaw, Jr.
It'll be up to the 242-pound junior to take over for long-time
starter J.D. Runnels as the lead blocker after coming to
Oklahoma as a linebacker. He won't get any carries being used
just as a blocker for Adrian Peterson.
Top Backups
- DeMarco Murray,
He'll be the starter next year once Adrian Peterson jumps early
to the NFL and should be the number two man in the mix right off
the bat this fall. The top recruit was ranked among the best
high school backs in the nation after rushing for 1,947 yards
and 27 touchdowns and catching seven scoring passes last year
for Bishop Gorman High in Las Vegas. He has decent size at 6-0
and 183 pounds, but his game is speed, speed, speed clocking in
at 4.37 in the 40.
- Allen Patrick, Jr. - 25 carries, 136 yds, 5.4 ypc, 2 TD, 4
catches, 8 yards
Patrick is a speedy former defensive back who had his biggest
game against Baylor rushing for 49 yards on 15 carries. He's a
good-sized back with great quickness who's able to push for time
as a kick returner as well as the number two running back job.
He'll likely see about five to seven carries a game this year to
keep Peterson fresh.
- Jacob Gutierrez, Jr. - 48 carries, 254 yds, 5.3 ypc, 2
TD, 5 catches, 11 yards
The mighty mite saved the day against Baylor last year filling
in for Adrian Peterson and running for 173 yards and two
touchdowns on 30 carries. He's only 5-6 and 186 pounds, but he's
a tough runner who'll also see time on special teams if and when
he's able to return from a torn ACL suffered in the Holiday
- Matt Clapp, Soph.
A special teamer throughout last year, the 6-2, 242-pound
sophomore will be the main backup fullback behind Dane Zaslaw.
It's an anonymous, no-name receiving corps at
the moment, but that could quickly change if all the sophomores
can be more consistent. It's a very tall group that can all run
and make plays, so there will be a strong, interesting
rotation of players with more talent on the way with lightning
freshman Adron Tennell
coming this fall. One go-to, sure-thing target has to emerge,
and it'll likely be last year's leading receiver, Malcolm Kelly.
Joe Jon Finley and Brody Eldridge are big, athletic tight ends
who'll do more this season.
The key to the unit: Use all the big receiver to create
matchup problems and improve the overall downfield blocking.
Receiver Rating: 8
Projected Starters
- Malcolm Kelly, Soph. - 33 catches, 471 yds, 14.3 ypc, 2
The 6-4 sophomore led the team in receiving last season despite
only catching one pass over the first five games. He's a solid
athlete who can make things happen once he gets the ball in his
hands and is a developing blocker. He's a good go-to receiver
able to get open on short to midrange patterns without a
- Juaquin Iglesias, Soph. - 19 catches, 290 yds,
15.3 ypc, 2 TD
Iglesias showed signs of being a star with a strong true
freshman season highlighted by a good Holiday Bowl catching five
passes for 85 yards. He's a speedy receiver who can hit the home
run playing in the slot.
- Tight end Joe Jon Finley, Soph. - 13 catches, 150 yds,
11.5 ypc, 2 TD
A smart player earning All-Big 12 Academic honors, Finley is a
big target who was a major factor over the first half of last
year before failing to catch a pass over the last five games.
He's a great athlete and will be a go-to receiver as the year
goes on, but he's not a dominant blocker.
Top Backups
- Quentin Chaney, Soph. - 2 catches, 26 yds
The 6-5 sophomore is the tallest of a tall receiving corps. He's
not just a big, physical receiver, he has good deep speed. He'll
push for time behind Malcolm Kelly.
- Fred Strong, Soph.
Strong upped his game this spring and showed he's ready to
contribute as a backup behind Paul Thompson. He's a speedy 6-3
receiver who improved this off-season as a route runner.
- Manuel Johnson, Soph. - 10 catches, 170 yds, 17 ypc,
Fast, fast, fast. The sophomore led the team in yards per catch
blazing away for a 55-yard score to help beat Oklahoma State.
While he's small by OU standards, he's a good-sized target at
6-1 and 170 pounds with next level speed.
- Eric Huggins, RFr.
One of last year's top recruits is expected to turn into a
playmaker this year working behind Malcolm Kelly and Quentin
Chaney. He's 6-4 and runs a 4.5 40.
- Tight end Brody Eldridge, RFr.
A defensive end before coming to OU, the 6-5 redshirt
freshman is a speedy backup tight end behind Joe Jon Finley.
Offensive Linemen
This will be the make or break unit for the Sooners with
massive turnover including at coach where James Patton comes in after
doing a fantastic job at Northwestern. There aren't any obvious
all-stars outside of, possibly, the steady Chris Messner at left tackle,
but there's plenty of talent and lots of good prospects to choose from
boosted by JUCO transfers Brandon Walker and Sherron Moore. It was a
good news/bad news situation this spring with projected starter Jon
Cooper out and J.D. Quinn kicked off the team. It allowed several young players to get some
key reps, but it might hurt a line that desperately needs every practice
with a fully operational starting five.
The key to the unit: Get everyone in camp and healthy
to hope for some cohesion and to figure out where the pieces will fit.
Offensive Line Rating: 7.5
Projected Starters
- OT Chris Messner, Sr.
A solid right tackle last season, the 6-6, 280-pound senior makes the
move over to the left side where he'll be expected to be the anchor and
potential all-star. He won't be the dominant run blocker that Davin
Joseph was, but he'll be one of the Big 12's best pass protectors.
- OG George Robinson, Soph.
"Duke" was a too huge backup at left guard and will battle for the
starting job this fall. He was 360 pounds last year and got in better
shape to be a more mobile 332 pounds coming into this season.
- C Jon Cooper, Soph.
Able to play center or guard, the 278-pound sophomore is expected to
return healthy this fall from the broken ankle that knocked him out last
year. He played like a veteran with strength and consistency as a true
Brian Simmons, RFr.
Simmons will see time at each guard position and could even end up
starting on the right side after J.D. Quinn got kicked off the team. Originally a
defensive lineman, he's learning the ropes on the offensive side.
- OT Branndon Braxton, Soph.
The 6-6, 318-pound sophomore saw a few starts last year at right tackle
and will take over the job now that Chris Messner has moved to left
tackle. He's a great athlete with great speed for a player his size.
Top Backups
- T Brandon Walker, Jr.
The superstar JUCO transfer will instantly push for time. He's 318
pounds and can move, so it remains to be seen if he'll step in and push
Branndon Braxton for the job on the right side or find a spot on the
inside. His emergence should shuffle the rotation.
- C Chad Roark, Fr.
The 290-pound true freshman came to school early and
found himself on top of the depth chart during spring ball. That'll
change once Jon Cooper is healthy, but he should be a key contributor as
a reserve.
- G Sherron Moore, Jr.
The 320-pound JUCO transfer enrolled early and showed enough to be
considered a top backup at both guard positions. He's a big run blocker
who's good on the move.

Barenboim was elated with the evening -- citing the orchestra "capable of playing like hardly anyone in the world," the "stupendous" chorus and "top-notch" singers.
He acknowledged that a double illness was not normal even in the dramatic world of opera, but said he knew Dasch could step in having worked with her previously -- though never on Wagner. He said he has seen her voice develop from Mozart when she was young to more mature Wagner roles.
"Dasch, according to me, will be a great Wagnerian singer," Barenboim said.
The audience was completely won over from the first act, applauding enthusiastically at both breaks and giving no credence to media criticism that La Scala was inaugurating its dual bicentennial celebrations of its own Giuseppe Verdi and German icon Wagner with a Teutonic classic.
"Wagner always wins when you play the music well," Barenboim said.
Premier Mario Monti, a La Scala regular, took a break from the grueling job of reforming Italy's economy and after Thursday's moves by Silvio Berlusconi's center-right party to pull support from the government. He went back stage to meet the singers during one of the intermissions.
With no time to rest on her laurels, Dasch heads back to Berlin early Saturday for an evening performance of Mozart's "La finta giardiniera" (The Gates of Love).
"Something completely different," she said.

This is rated mature? As it contains references that some may find nasty, nothing bad- just suggested.
This popped into my head, and I wanted to write it, it was going to be a descriptive practice piece but It does not have much description, as I started to get a load of ideas for the story, this is a mini-introduction into the characters while putting in a plot..
Please give feedback.
Poenari Castle overshadowed the town beneath it, dominating it. The famous McAllister household situated to the right of the impressive castle was an old manor, it had been built as a gift of Matrimony between the Allisters and the Mcnovals over Two decades ago. The town also had a troublesome tavern among other buildings.
Poenari castle was said to have been built in the 10Century by Count Alcotte – The self proclaimed master of shape shifting, before being staked by slayers, However some say Count Dracula was behind the staking, he always wanted an evil, spacious castle.
The castle is now owned by the Prince of Darkness - Count Dracula.
Count Dracula is said to be just under 700 years old, He has said to have been in major historic battle, he said they have an abundance of blood; the Battle of Arsuf 1191 and the Battle of Gisors 1198 for example. He holds traditional vampire traits - he likes people to think. But let it be said he has not bitten a living human in 15 years. But he does not live alone. 4 other vampires stalk the castle walls.
Orfeo Dracula the drainer – He had drained many historic figures, Robert, Duke of Normandy was his favorite. He used to drink by the gallon. The tavern is his favorite location once the sun lays way to nightfall. Orfeo is by far the most disturbed vampire in the Dracula clan; He has an unhealthy obsession with young day walkers. He calls their blood fresh.
Maladict, Maladict the learnt is a young vampire at 400 years old. He does not wear a cape like the Count and Orfeo, he prefers the dark blazer type suit. He is Vladimir Dracula's personal trainer. He is over 200 years younger than the Count but surpasses his knowledge vastly, His dream would have been to visit the Ancient Library of Alexandria Before its ruin. He has told the count destruction of that library set mankind (not that it would matter to him) 1000 years back in knowledge.
Vladimir Dracula is the Son and Heir to the Dracula family. He is a very young vampire at 17, He does not have his full powers yet. So he can spend the days in the sun with his living friend Eden McAllister. He possesses small vampire powers like hypnotism and super speed but nothing to the extent of a full powered vampire. He is not keen on biting the living but will do so reluctantly.
Hectate the misguided is the family alchemists who spend his days playing with dark alchemy. The family stays away from him mostly; He would rather discover a new potion than drain 10 day walkers.
This Vampire clan is in all respects, highly irregular.
The McAllister Manor is home to Mr McAllister, his son Eden and housewife Avellana. They also have Mr McAllister's brother living with them, Percival, He is a wise man. The manor was built as a wedding present and has thick metal gates protecting the halls that lie within. It is a simple design in comparison to the castle of the Dracula's but they command no less respect to fellow members of the community - after all the vampires do not announce their existence to the world openly.
A secret lies within the family. At the back of the house a set of used but reliable armor on display. This is Mr McAllister's personal armor, He Is part of an ancient cult of warriors that are sworn to defend against the forces of evil – not vampires. They are sworn to defend against something far worse. They defend against forces that would use the vampire life-force for own gain, to become immortal; they are called the Unificatus - united in darkness. It is not by chance the Allisters married next to a vampire castle.
McAllister is one of these warriors, they have no official name for safety. His son however, Eden is not yet a warrior, He is still in training and his trainer Percival trains him whenever Eden is not off playing with Vladimir, which irritates Percival as his cousin was devoured by vampires. But he lets it be. Eden is only 15 years old at this point in time, he has much to learn.

It's Me, Ernie
50 sets? Name them…Posted June 17, 2013 12:41 pm
Squared Circle…, I've never seen brothers fight… I've seen 50 sets of brothers in the same weight class—and none of them ever fought.. Brothers spar a lot but that means nothing. Blood does mean much more than money because you'd die for your brother or any member of your immediate family. But I suppose some day it will happen that brothers fight … and that will be a sad day.
Floyd and Broner aren't brothers—and this is a money business. Whenever I've seen friends say they'd never fight each other—forget that. They do it every time money talks. It is tough to punch your friend, but you fight a lot of guys you like. It's your job. If you're a contractor bidding on a job a friend of yours wants, you want to beat him out all the more. Your competitive juices start boiling over. You don't want to rank beneath him.
First there's Canelo. If Saul can make the weight and be strong and fresh, that will be murder on Floyd… If Floyd squeaks by Canelo there will be Broner… If Floyd manages to outpoint the young demon, there will be Matthysse… If he fights those guys I really don't care who else he fights in the other 2 on his Showtime contract.Posted June 17, 2013 1:10 am
Squared Circle… Broner's aganda isn't Matthysse, Provodnikov, Garcia, or Bradley.. He's looking to clobber Paulie and get in on the Floyd sweepstake.. That was Guerrero's path from 135 to 147. He didn't have anybody else in mind.
If Canelo beats Floyd, Broner will maybe face a big hitter at 147 or 140… I would be very interested in watching all those matches, except Bradley.. He's a good boxer, but there's no explosion there.Posted June 16, 2013 10:29 pm
Broner has "poor defensive skills?" How do you figure? Or is that just your dislike of the guy that leads you to say that?Posted June 16, 2013 9:05 pm
Squared-Circle (a.k.a. LionKing)
Broner totally leap-frogged the Jr. WW division because he's knows there are a few guys at that weight-class who would expose his poor defensive skills and beat his ass. It was much, much easier to go mug feather-fisted Yo Paulie for his paper WW title.
A win over Paulie won't impress me in the slightest. Little Gavin Rees was able to tag Broner almost at will. Let's see how Broner's chin stands-up to guy who can really BANG. He should fight Matthysse, Danny Garcia, Bradley, PacMan or Mike Alvarado. Ruslan Provodnikov would a good place to start!Posted June 16, 2013 8:08 pm
"Pinning your hopes on PM to beat Broner makes no sense. " You talking to me Happyboy?Posted June 16, 2013 8:04 pm
All this stuff about Paulie taking Broner to school and kicking his ass is utter crap.. It's like these posters never saw Paulie or Broner fight before.Posted June 16, 2013 7:57 pm
Pinning your hopes on PM to beat Broner makes no sense. PM has never beat anyone worth mentioning his not gonna start with Broner. This is going to be a clinic Paulie is gonna get a ghetto beatdown a KO will only spare him the humiliation and pain.Posted June 16, 2013 4:33 am
"What Broner is saying … is he's a natural welterweight ANYWAY… He'll be fighting at his natural weight. He won't have to go through the physical ordeal of sweating off 15 pounds to make the lightweight limit and rehydrate to his natural poundage — which takes a lot out of any fighter." I think most of us know this, Tark. But he's used to training for a much lighter weight. Regardless, I just hope Paulie gives him a really good scrap.Posted June 16, 2013 2:13 am
Happyboy, does Paulie have any other choice? He'll be looking for a KO. He's going to have to use his right frequently. I never said the guy would win. But I really do believe he's going to fight hard this fight. Nothing better that Paulie would like to do than shut up Broner's mouth. Makes sense to me.Posted June 16, 2013 2:11 am
Hidalgo – " I expect Paulie to fight balls out and shooting a lot of power punches." lmfao, Pauli has power punches, stop goofing around and come to your senses.Posted June 15, 2013 6:28 pm
The Mad Scientist
This fight is only gonna show us what we already knew about both boxers..nothing really to see here, Paulie can't punch himself out of a wet paper bag to save his lifePosted June 15, 2013 5:54 pm
It's really crazy that I'm ashamed of being a big Broner fan, but I am. That being said, I would love to see Paulie take him to school and put a thorough ass whipping on him. I won't be betting that this will happen, but at the same time, I won't be surprised if it does. Getting outclassed by a veteran like Paulie could be good for his development and teach the little brat that he still has more to learn.Posted June 15, 2013 3:55 pm
He can finish Paulie… He's not a commnetator. He gave PM credit for being a good talker. He let Paulie go on and wanted to let him talk.
He knows all the BS Paulie throw at the level of his opposition is pure nonsense.. Broner beats world champion and full time fighters to death — while Paulie can't made a dent in a dough boy Mosley just beat in a sparring session.Posted June 15, 2013 3:42 pm
Paulie! Paulie! Paulie! Boner can barely finish a sentence…Posted June 15, 2013 3:29 pm
Strait up I'm mad at the sport I mean c'mon it's obvious like Paulie said they match broner up with cooks, bus drivers, and cell phone salesmen broner shoulder rolls and now he's the new Floyd? New era of the sport?, that's exactly what they were trying to do with nonito before rigondeaux to him back to class!Posted June 15, 2013 3:13 pm
What Broner is saying … is he's a natural welterweight ANYWAY… He'll be fighting at his natural weight. He won't have to go through the physical ordeal of sweating off 15 pounds to make the lightweight limit and rehydrate to his natural poundage — which takes a lot out of any fighter. He'll be packed with energy like Pacquiao was when he first made the leap from 135 to 147. Oscar was available at that weight, so it was a great business move.
Obviously, if he crushes Paulie worse than Cotto, Hatton, or Khan were able to beat Paulie up, he's a World Champion at 147 — and a logical matchup for a monster money matchup with Floyd.
Staying at 135 who does he fight? Guerrero also made the same jump.Posted June 15, 2013 3:06 pm
I hope Paulie BEAT HIS ASS, although he is funny "Im a welterweight anyway,I just lost some weight" ahahhahahaPosted June 15, 2013 12:50 pm
this fight will be a great entertainment I cannot wait hehehehehePosted June 15, 2013 12:48 pm

this guy broner makes me sick to my stomach, he truly sounds like a total moron. he is a legend in his own mind already. i pray that paulie puts a beating on him and embarrasses the heck out of him. i love this sport with all my heart and i def think we need good characters to make it fun, but hes just an idiot that thinks hes smart which is the biggest joke of allPosted June 15, 2013 11:40 am
I think Paulie really wants to make a statement against Broner. Otherwise he wouldn't have taken the fight. Paulie's no fool. He knows why Broner picked him to fight at welterweight. He knows Broner thinks he's an easy mark. I expect Paulie to fight balls out and shooting a lot of power punches. This fight will get a lot of attention. And if Paulie beats Broner, Mayweather will surely be knocking on his door.Posted June 15, 2013 10:55 am
"Negative." Oh I see, Adrien is in the military. The guy is a goof ball. Talented boxer, but a goof ball.Posted June 15, 2013 10:41 am
Broner sounds like an idiot in the interview. He also sounds like a Mayweather clone with his talking in third person, "If they want to fight Adrien Broner, then I'll fight them." The little monkey isn't a superstar yet. He might also try getting his own identity.Posted June 15, 2013 10:39 am
Gotta see how Broner looks at 147, I certainly give him the edge but Paulie Malignaggi is NOT a punk he has been in the ring with some top fighters when they were in damn good form…Good test for BronerPosted June 15, 2013 10:30 am
Broner has been more protected than an endangered speices…Paulie will expose AB"s slow feet n boxin iq…the few times Broner has been in with some 1 with half a pulse hasent impressed(Quinteru,DeLeon) n 1st 2 rounds against Rees was being outboxed by a dwarf…Paulie puts on career performance and wins by a wide decision that will surprise alotta people,tho it shouldn't…2yrs from now Broner will be a"never was"that Al Haymon handed 2 belts 2 himPosted June 15, 2013 9:27 am
LOL @ 'broner has just won the mental game'. How??? He is a borderline retard. I'd genuinely be amazed if his IQ is over 75.

Housing shortage in Gloucestershire hits hard
Posted: November 09, 2012|
THOUSANDS of people in Gloucestershire could be left fighting for a home with the region facing a massive shortage of new housing.
In Stroud and the Forest of Dean, waiting lists for social housing are among the fastest growing in the country.
A new report by the National Housing Federation says waiting lists for social housing have leapt by more than a quarter in 20 years.
And in Stroud and the Forest of Dean, the lack of affordable housing is particularly acute.
The waiting list for social housing in Stroud grew by 32 per cent in just one year, up from 1,966 in 2010 to 2,605 households in 2011.
And in the Forest of Dean the increase between 2010 and 2011 was 29 per cent rising to 2,261 households.
The NHF says the shortfall of homes in Gloucestershire is pushing up house prices and private rents, making it increasingly difficult for people to afford to rent their own home, let alone buy one.
The report adds that we are building less than 60 per cent of the homes we need in the South West.
One in 12 households in the South West is now on the waiting list for social housing.
The NHF has predicted that rents in the private sector could increase by 62 per cent over the next ten years.
Forecasts warn that the average monthly rent for a three-bedroom home in Gloucestershire will rise from £775 in 2012 to £1,256 in 2022.
Current average monthly rents for a three-bedroom home are £904 in Cheltenham and £664 in Gloucester.
Buying a house in Gloucestershire is increasingly unaffordable with the average home costing £230,782 – over 11 times the average local wage.
In the Cotswolds, average homes cost £334,715 – 20 times the average local wage.
Jenny Allen, South West lead manager for the National Housing Federation, said: "We now face the very real possibility that an entire generation will be priced out of being able to rent a home, let alone able to buy one.
"With rents set to rocket – particularly from 2015 – there are fewer and fewer choices open to people who want to live here."
Gloucester city has bucked the trend seeing a 13 per cent reduction in the waiting list to 3,884 households in 2011.
Mattie Ross, Stroud District Council executive member for housing, said it is building more affordable rented houses. Last night the council executive was expected to approve plans to build 100 council houses on its garage sites. "We want to build new houses, perhaps not as fast as the rate I would like but we are doing our bit," said Councillor Mattie Ross (L, Stonehouse).
"There is a very fine line between building very high specification homes and building as many as we can.
"The garage sites plan is very innovative, and we don't have the land cost because we own the land."

Rare Michalek goal helps Coyotes beat Penguins 3-1
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Two nights after losing to the Eastern Conference's worst team, the Phoenix Coyotes handled the best.
Zbynek Michalek scored against his former team, his first goal in 83 games, and the Coyotes became the first Pacific Division team to beat the Pittsburgh Penguins in regulation this season with a 3-1 victory on Saturday night.
Mike Ribeiro had a goal and an assist for Phoenix. Radim Vrbata scored the third goal for the Coyotes, who were coming off perhaps their worst loss of the season, 3-2 at home to the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night.
"I think we had something to prove," Michalek said. "We believed in this room that when we play the right way, we can play against any team. I think tonight was a great effort by everybody."
Evgeni Malkin scored for the Penguins, who entered 8-0-1 against Pacific Division foes.
Michalek's previous goal was scored on March 5, 2012, for Pittsburgh against Phoenix.
"It's been almost two years," he said. "Hopefully I don't have to wait that long for the next one."
Michalek acknowledged that he had extra motivation for this one.
"For sure," he said. "This one feels good, and for me even sweeter. Anytime you play against your former team, you want to show up, you want to win."
The Penguins, who had won three straight over the Coyotes, made their first appearance in Arizona in 3 1-2 years.
Mike Smith, back in goal after Phoenix had gone with Thomas Greiss the previous two games, made 23 saves. Pittsburgh's Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 27 shots.
With just 24 shots, the Penguins' offense was off its usual form.
"Tonight was a tough-fought game. There wasn't a lot out there," Pittsburgh coach Dan Bylsma said. "That's the kind of games we expect. We have to be able to play a patient game, not be taking chances with the way we play or the way we play with the puck."
Playing in front 17,362, the Coyotes' second-largest home crowd this season, Pittsburgh fell behind 2-0. The Penguins made it a one-goal game before Vrbata's shot on a 2-on-1 rush slipped through Fleury to make it 3-1 with 15:47 to play.
The Penguins fell to 2-10 in games in which NHL scoring leader Sidney Crosby fails to get a point.
"They play good team defense as a group," Crosby said. "I think we didn't make it tough enough on them. We didn't hold the puck in their zone. They're pretty good at blocking shots and getting their stick on pucks.
"You have to give them credit, but I don't think we did a good enough job of creating, either. I think we could have done more there."
Coyotes coach Dave Tippett credited the defense of Oliver Ekman-Larsson against the Crosby line.
"Ollie was all-world there," Tippett said. "That's an unbelievable game by him."
Ekman-Larsson called it "a good challenge for me and Z (Michalek)."
"I think we did a pretty good job all night," he said. "So it was fun."

Nicki Minaj & Enrique Iglesias in Talks to Judge American Idol

Is the American Idol judges' panel filling up?
"Super Bass" singer Nicki Minaj is reportedly in talks to join judge Mariah Carey on the show for its 12th season. According to an Associated Press report, "a deal is in works" for Minaj, 29.
Meanwhile, a source tells PEOPLE that Enrique Iglesias, who is currently on tour with departing judge Jennifer Lopez, is being considered for the show, which also lost Steven Tyler after season 11.
"Idol has expressed a lot of interest but no final word on either side yet," a source tells PEOPLE of the "I Like It" singer, 36.

It was all good vibes for Johnny Depp on Monday night, when the actor – whose split from longtime girlfriend Vanessa Paradis was officially announced in June – stopped by a private shindig for Aerosmith at Harry Morton's Pink Taco Sunset Strip in West Hollywood.
At the venue, which Steven Tyler rented out, an onlooker tells PEOPLE Depp was in "high spirits and [seemed to] really enjoy the party."
Mingling with everyone in the room, including Liv Tyler, Jim Carrey and the hosts of the night, Depp, says the source, table-hopped until about 2:00
Steven Tyler Talks to His Dogs

In early July, Steven Tyler announced he'd be leaving American Idol to focus on making music with Aerosmith. But his departure from the show also freed him up to spend more time with other loves – his dogs.
"[I have] a Yorkie and a Morkie," he tells TIME. "One is a teacup I put in my pocket. And the other one I put in a sling over my shoulder, and I walk around, and it's the cutest f–––ing thing on the planet.
After battling drug addiction for years and entering rehab multiple times, Tyler confesses that his now-sober lifestyle can get lonely at times, which is when he turns to his pooches for support.

The newest face at the judges' table is taking home the biggest paycheck.
Mariah Carey, who has officially signed on to join American Idol, will reportedly earn about $18 million for the season.
"Her deal is rumored to be just under $18 million for one year with an option to renew," a source familiar with the negotiation tells PEOPLE.
Carey, 43, will reportedly be the highest paid judge on any reality show.

It was a wet and wild night for Steven Tyler on Sunday.
The former American Idol judge took in a showing of Fuerza Bruta with two pals and his bodyguard at the Daryl Roth Theatre in N.Y.C.
Known for its iconic Mylar pool scene, Tyler wanted to experience it for himself.
"Steven actually got into the pool with the [female cast members] and [seemed to] love every minute of the experience," a source tells PEOPLE.
Calling the Aerosmith front man "incredibly generous," the source goes on to say that he even invited the entire cast to come out and see his show the following night.

Jennifer Lopez Confirms She's Leaving American Idol
Originally posted 07/13/2012 12:40PM
After months of speculation, and the "hardest business conversation she's ever had," Jennifer Lopez confirms she is leaving American Idol after two seasons.
"I honestly feel like the time has come that I have to get back to doing the other things that I do, that I put ... on hold because I love Idol so much," Lopez, 42, told Ryan Seacrest Friday on his KIIS-FM morning show.
"I could do Idol for the rest of my life," she said, "but that would be giving up a bunch of other things. We had an amazing run."
Lopez follows in the footsteps of fellow judge Steven Tyler, who announced Thursday that he will not be returning for another season.

Upon Steven Tyler's confirmation that he will not return to the American Idol judges' table – and amid buzz that Jennifer Lopez is likely following in his footsteps – Carey, 42, may be making her way to the Fox singing competition.
"She's in play," an insider tells PEOPLE. "They are in serious talks."
Steven Tyler Will Not Return to American Idol

Steven Tyler is going back to his day job.
After two seasons as a judge on American Idol, the Aerosmith frontman says he won't be returning to the reality show and will, instead, be focusing once again on his band.
"After some long ... hard ... thoughts … I've decided it's time for me to let go of my mistress American Idol before she boils my rabbit," the rocker said in a statement Thursday. "I strayed from my first love, Aerosmith, and I'm back – but instead of begging on my hands and knees, I got two fists in the air and I'm kicking the door open with my band."
Tyler's announcement comes amid continued chatter that Jennifer Lopez will not be returning to the popular Fox show. "I am thinking that it's time for me to go," she recently said about tackling a third season.
Jennifer Lopez on American Idol: 'It's Time for Me to Go'

Apparently all the buzz about fresh faces on the American Idol judges' panel is not premature.
Jennifer Lopez, who's been on the show for two seasons, appeared on Thursday's Today show and said that when it comes to doing a third season, "I am thinking that it's time for me to go."
But leaving the Fox show, which crowned Phillip Phillips the season 11 winner in May, won't be easy for Lopez, who, besides being mom to 4-year-old twins Max and Emme, is currently on tour with Enrique Iglesias and stars in the new animated movie Ice Age 3: Continental Drift.

Lambert, 30, is reportedly among those being considered for a judging role if Jennifer Lopez doesn't return, according to an E! Online report.
The season 8 singer, who finished as runner-up to Kris Allen in probably the biggest Idol upset ever, is one of the show's biggest stars, and has the outsize personality that would seem perfect for television.

On Chrysler's Dismissals, Shaky U.S. CredibilityFebruary 5, 2014 8:26 am | by Joel Hans, Managing Editor, Manufacturing.net | Comments
Amid the news that Chrysler was being merged with its Italian owners Fiat, and many still-unanswered questions about the future of what used to be one of America's "Big 3" automakers, the company has doubled-down on its very U.S.-focused — and some say ironically xenophobic — advertising scheme.
How Outsourcing Went Horribly WrongFebruary 3, 2014 3:16 pm | by Alan Nicol, Executive Member, AlanNicolSolutions | Comments
There is much debate over the effectiveness of the strategy, the affect it has had on "American" brand quality, and the affect it is having on the U.S. economy and its ability to pull out of the current recession.
EDVs Don't Reduce EmissionsJanuary 31, 2014 3:26 pm | by Chris Fox, Managing Editor, PD&D | Comments
Through 108 different scenarios in a model, the researchers found that even if EDVs made up 42 percent of passenger vehicles in the U.S., there would be little or no reduction in the emission of key air pollutants.
The Basics Of Internal AuditingJanuary 30, 2014 2:12 pm | by Karen Spencer, Quality Manager, Clinkenbeard, Inc. | Comments
Normally companies will have a schedule that is written to audit their entire quality system on an annual basis. Usually the Quality Manager or Engineer is responsible for creating this schedule. The schedule consists of the elements of the standard to be audited, who will be auditing and when the results are due.
What Does 3D Printing Mean For ERP?January 29, 2014 3:06 pm | by Antony Bourne, Global Manufacturing Industry Director, IFS | Comments
The implications for spares and repairs inventory are obvious — rather than keeping safety stock on hand, parts could be printed as needed from a stock of materials.
Trusting Too Much In DataJanuary 29, 2014 8:32 am | by Alan Nicol, Executive Member, AlanNicolSolutions | Comments
We are virtually bombarded by the phenomenon of data-driven headlines. On any given day we might read that cigarette smoking is on the rise, or that book sales are down, but without seeing the data plot over a long time we don't really know what those headlines mean.
Manufacturers Are Leaving China, But Where Are They Headed?January 28, 2014 10:59 am | by Tia Nowack, Associate Editor, Industrial Maintenance & Plant Operation | Comments
Seeing China's manufacturing sector shrink is a trend that excites Americans, although it may not actually alleviate much of the pressure around a U.S. unemployment rate of 7.3 percent. The reality, according to many experts, is that the phenomenon is more one of nearshoring than reshoring, as many of these businesses — along with their jobs — head to Mexico.
Do You Believe In Safety Factors?January 24, 2014 3:16 pm | by Alan Nicol, Executive Member, AlanNicolSolutions | Comments
The science of mapping performance distributions told us exactly where we could set our process controls in order to ensure virtually 100% defect-free results. It is a better method than assuming or guessing at an appropriate safety factor.
3D Printing: 2013's Biggest Market DisruptorJanuary 23, 2014 8:47 am | by Chris Fox, Managing Editor, PD&D | Comments
Being a technology that has been around for some 25 to 30 years, additive manufacturing (3D printing) was bound to make some intriguing changes and advances, as is expected every year. So why on Earth is 3D printing the biggest market disruptor of 2013?
Process Mapping For MarketingJanuary 21, 2014 8:28 am | by Alan Nicol, Executive Member, AlanNicolSolutions | Comments
Except among the deeply process-minded fellows with whom I sometimes converse, the suggestion that process mapping is a valuable market analysis and planning tool meets with argument and outright dismissal more often than it does serious consideration.

Most people have no idea – and it's an incredibly important piece of business intelligence to have, since those at the table where standards are developed have the opportunity to shape the specifications and market acceptance of products and systems for every industry.
Manufacturing Needs More 'Post-Mortems'January 15, 2014 8:51 am | by Joel Hans, Managing Editor, Manufacturing.net | Comments
An in-depth post-mortem can actually increase confidence in a business and encourage more trust. Everyone and every business makes mistakes, and often, what separates a successful one from a failed one is the way in which they respond to the unexpected. Proving that your company can do just that should be a matter of pride, not shame.
A Headless Chicken Leading The BlindJanuary 13, 2014 8:43 am | by Alan Nicol, Executive Member, AlanNicolSolutions | Comments
Generally speaking, the real challenge is not solving the problem. The real challenge is managing the chaos. Everyone is so busy being busy for the sake of appearing like they are solving the problem, that no one can invest the time and attention for critical thought.
How Lean Do You Really Want To Be?January 9, 2014 1:41 pm | by Tom McNamara and Erika Masillac | Comments
A key lean trend is consolidating suppliers and doing away with redundancies. Although this certainly creates cost efficiencies, the main suppliers who are left quite often end up providing needed parts to many companies in the same industry. And if these companies are all depending on the same supplier, or only a few suppliers, unforeseen production problems or sudden shifts in demand can easily send ripples throughout multiple systems.
Is Chrysler An 'American' Automaker Any More?January 8, 2014 9:07 am | by Joel Hans, Managing Editor, Manufacturing.net | Comments
Chrysler has technically been "foreign-owned" since July 2011, but the recent deal makes it all the more real: might be an American-headquartered company, but it's also a fully-owned subsidiary of an Italian company. That's an important distinction, one that means Chrysler simply isn't in the same playing field as Ford and GM, no matter each of their origins.
Would You Mortgage Your Home For A TV?January 8, 2014 8:46 am | by Jason Lomberg, Technical Editor, ECN | Comments
No 105-inch TV will ever be affordable for anyone who doesn't own a private jet — not till the tech is long past its prime, anyway. And these gargantuan show-stoppers were never really intended for (general) public consumption. CES is all about the glitz and glam, after all, and a 105-inch toy makes for great PR.
Next-Level 3D Printing With MetalJanuary 3, 2014 1:15 pm | by Danielle M., Blogger & Business Student | Comments
3-D printing took another leap forward when Michigan Technological University scientists invented a 3-D metal printer available at a relatively affordable price — around $1,500. Oh, and they made the instructions for building the machine, as well as the operating software and firmware, available online for anyone to download.
The Race Is On And The U.S. Is LosingJanuary 2, 2014 2:09 pm | by Chris Fox, Managing Editor, Product Design & Development | Comments
Have you heard about the space race? It's not what you think. Similar to the space race that the U.S. participated in back in the 60s, China and India are vying to get to… the moon. This surge of interstellar interest seems to be in conjunction with NASA's Curiosity rover cruising around Mars. The question is: why all the sudden interest in space exploration?
Protecting Advancements: Critical For Next-Generation ManufacturersDecember 17, 2013 9:52 am | by Mark A. Aiello and Nick E. Kyriakopoulos, Foley & Lardner LLP | Comments
Next-generation manufacturers are particularly vulnerable when supplying other manufacturers who purchase their goods. If the buyer has the right to inspect the seller's manufacturing technologies or otherwise has access to the seller's manufacturing processes, innovative technologies and proprietary advancements, the rights to protect such intellectual assets may be compromised.
Is This The End Of Moore's Law?December 11, 2013 9:29 am | by Kasey Panetta, Managing Editor, PD&D | Comments
Researchers are concerned that the unsustainability of Moore's law might mean the end, or at least the abrupt slowing down, of electronic development at the height of the digital era. That could herald a very dangerous time for U.S. manufacturing and consumers.

Remember Me
In an interview posted yesterday by the
Chicago Sun-Times, Butler says "I've always said as long as I can play, as long as I can
do it to a good level, then I'll keep doing it because I still really enjoy playing. I'll
know when the day comes I can't do this anymore, can't play to my usual standards. That's
when I won't go out anymore. I won't do that to me self. But at the moment, I just love
playing with the band. It probably will be the last time, will probably be the last tour.
But I want to go out on a high. The band is playing really well at the moment."
When pushed by author Marc Guarino about why it would be the group's last tour, Butler
explains "I don't know. I just got a feeling. It's getting tough, it really is. I can't
lie about that. I'm old now. It really is tough going on every night. You wake up next
day, all the pains you never had before. I don't want to go onstage for the sake of the
money. You have to have a lot pride in yourself, and I honestly think I'm coming to the
end of the top of my job."

"If the shale-gas revolution succumbs to politics, we have a lot to lose. As a recent report from the University of Michigan notes: "Managed properly, the availability of low-cost shale gas could catalyze a renaissance in U.S. manufacturing, revitalizing the chemical industry and enhancing the global competitiveness of energy-intensive manufacturing sectors such as aluminum, steel, paper, glass and food."
Earlier this week, UN Special Rapporteurs visiting Detroit labeled the city's nearly 27,000 residential water shutoffs as contrary to basic human rights and disproportionately onerous on the city's poorest and most vulnerable populations. The Rapporteurs drew these conclusions after a weekend of meetings with city officials and residents.
Global trade is, by and large, a good thing. Trade helps optimize the allocation of resources (materials, capital, labor, etc.) at the global scale. Today about one third of the global GDP comes from international trade. The value of traded goods and services today is about 50 times that of 1970, while the global GDP is only about four times that of 1970.
Is nuclear energy "sustainable"? Certainly it's not categorized as such in any federal definition of the term. Nuclear power is not ballyhooed in pro-renewable montages of solar panels and wind turbines. The nuclear industry receives none of the tax incentives renewables do. But the argument for nuclear energy as an important part of any large-scale sustainable energy plan is a powerful one, and an urgent one to explore as climate change becomes an ever more pressing reality.
ANN ARBOR – The American shale gas boom has the potential to revitalize domestic manufacturing, and a new report from a University of Michigan-led panel recommends steps to make that happen in a responsible manner.
Those steps include increasing public trust of hydraulic fracturing; monitoring and reducing methane emissions; and using shale gas profits to advance renewable energy technologies, among other efforts.
A country is only as strong as its capacity to build. Managed properly, the availability of low-cost shale gas could catalyze a renaissance in U.S. manufacturing, revitalizing the chemical industry and enhancing the global competitiveness of energy-intensive manufacturing sectors such as aluminum, steel, paper, glass, and food. This report summarizes and expands upon the University of Michigan-sponsored daylong Symposium "Shale Gas: A Game-Changer for American Manufacturing," held on March 28, 2014 at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
Electricity for rainforest villages in Gabon. Tent fabric that harvests solar energy for nomadic people in Kazakhstan. A modular greenhouse and fish farm in an unused industrial building in Highland Park, Michigan.
These are some of the goals and possibilities a team of 17 researchers will pursue with a new $3 million Third Century Initiative Global Challenges grant from the University of Michigan.
Renewable Portfolio Standards- the percentage of a given energy portfolio made up of renewable power sources- are a contentious issue in many states. In this blog entry, University of Michigan researcher Jeremiah Johnson describes his new study, which will describe in detail the various costs and benefits of adding more renewables to Michigan's energy mix.

Author's Response: Glad you liked it. And don't be embarrassed. I've seen Haldir die like, a hundred times and I still cry every time I see it.
