Middle of the week is here, can you believe it? It feels like I have been living at warp speed as of late but I am still loving it. I was wondering all day about what to post and then I realized that I had made some killer garlic bread for my simple pasta dish that I have yet to share with you. This bread has a bit of love involved for simple garlic bread – but it is so worth it.
I used the bread maker to prepare the dough which makes it less fun but also allows you to do other things around the house while still achieving the great smell. Do you love the smell of fresh bread in your house? I am a huge sucker for the fresh bread smell.
To keep things simple I just shape the bread in a long loaf pan, let it double in size and then bake it off. Once baked, I let it cool slightly, cut it in two and then prepare the toppings before a simple broil to finish it off.
Melted butter, freshly roasted garlic, a sprinkle of parsley and a dash of paprika. Line up the supplies you will need to make this happen.
- 3/4 Cup Lukewarm Water
- 1/2 Cup Creamed Cottage Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Shredded Old Cheddar Cheese
- 3 Tbsp. Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 2 Tbsp. Sugar
- 1 Tbsp. Butter
- 1 1/2 Tsp. Salt
- 3 Cups White Flour
- 2 Tsp. Yeast
- 3 Tbsp. Butter
- 3 Cloves Garlic ( Roasted )
- Parsley
- Paprika
- Measure ingredients in order listed into baking pan.
- Insert baking pan securely into bread maker; close lid.
- Select dough setting and let it go.
- Place dough in long loaf pan and let rise until doubled in size.
- Preheat Oven to 375 degrees and cook until golden brown.
- Once complete let cool, slice in half lengthwise and top with toppings.
- Preheat Oven to 375 degrees and cook until golden brown.
Zesty Tip: For a enhanced garlic flavor, buy a whole cluster of garlic, cut the top of it drizzle some olive oil over it, season with salt and pepper and roast in a 400 degree oven for 60 minutes.
I am really thankful I have this recipe/idea that I could share with you today. I really enjoyed preparing this bread as a nice accompaniment for some pasta or even on those nights when you just want to have finger food such as chicken wings. Have a great Wednesday and I will see you tomorrow.
Note: I did promise a new dessert treat in yesterday's post and I didn't pull through – sorry for that but hang in there and I will deliver.
Take care

Nick Ratajczak in Mankato
July 25, 2012
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Here is the latest Louisville baseball summer update with highlights on the progress of the Cardinals' 25 players competing this summer.
Leading the way for the Cardinals in this week's update is catcher Shane Crain, who earned a starting spot in Tuesday night's Perfect Game League All-Star Game. Louisville's 25 underclassmen are assigned to six different wooden bat leagues around the nation, including an NCAA leading nine players in the prestigious Cape Cod League. Following the completion of the collegiate summer leagues, players will return to campus for the fall semester in mid-August to continue Louisville's preparation for the 2013 college baseball season.
Fans can follow Louisville baseball on Twitter at http://twitter.com/uoflbaseball and on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ulbaseball.

CP Europe
Prince Charles 'Concerned' About Allowing Royals to Marry Catholics
Britain's Prince Charles smiles during the Mey Highland Games in Caithness, northern Scotland August 6, 2011. Prince Charles,who holds the title of 'Chieftain' for the games, attends the annual event that takes place near Castle of Mey, which was the Queen Mother's official home in Caithness. (Photo: Reuters/David Moir)
Prince Charles expressed concerns over a bill that seeks to change the rules surrounding the Royal line of succession in Britain, saying that allowing royal members to marry Roman Catholics might undermine the Church of England.
The British monarch, who is currently in line to inherit the throne from his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, has stated that the bill was "rushed" and that it might have "unintended consequences," CBC reported. Only Protestants have been able to serve as king or queen since the signing of the Act of Settlement, passed in 1701.
The bill allows girls who were born before their brothers to keep their place in line to the throne, but it also removed a 300-year-old ban on royals from marrying Roman Catholics. The official British monarch serves as head of the Church of England, but Roman Catholic doctrine dictates that children from such a union would have to be raised in the Catholic tradition, which would constitute a conflict of interest.
Prince Charles expressed concerns about what will happen if the child of Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, married a Roman Catholic and was then faced with a confrontation over canon law.
The Anglican Communion has made no objections to the bill so far.
"[The church's] role is not to defend Anglicanism to the exclusion of all other religions. Instead, the church has a duty to protect the free practice of all faiths in this country," Queen Elizabeth II said.
British Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has insisted that the bill will make no changes to the status of the monarch as head of the Church of England.
"They reflect old prejudices and old fears. Today we don't support laws which discriminate on either religious or gender grounds; they have no place in modern Britain and certainly not in our monarchy, an institution central to our constitution, to the Commonwealth, and to our national identity too," Clegg, who is an atheist, has said of the old laws.

Another slam-dunk performance by Malkovich! Here, he plays probably his most quirky, unusual yet…a combination of different characters…all pretending to be Stanley Kubrick. What???? Yes, you read me right. Malkovich's character plays a man named Alan Conway…who is obsessed with being known as Stanley Kubrick. Well, in addition to Kubrick, Conway is also obsessed with NEVER PAYING FOR ANYTHING, which he is able to get away with MUCH easier as Kubrick, than as Conway. Set in London in the 1990s, the tag-line for this film is "a true-ish story." And, that would be pretty accurate…since there WAS a man in London in the late 1990s pretending to be Stanley Kubrick. But, that I believe is where the truth ends. All of Malkovich's characters I would say are originals. If the imposter really did do some of the things Alan Conway gets away with, I would want to shake that man's hand. Because Conway does and gets away with the more ludicrous things…they have to have been conceived in the mind of the screenwriter, right? But, then again, the idea of someone posing as a famous film director is pretty much out there already.

DB2 backups are failing with error code 6 ,25, 13
Hi All,
Another mind bending issue I am struggling with.
The issue is the clietn servers are AIX and we dont have access thus not able to directly check anything on the client.
I have cross verified the host files and they seem OK. Though I can cross check again.
BPCD is successful.
Any ideas which logs I should be referring to on Client and master in order to get a hold of the error messsage please?
our environemtn details:
Master and media are same running on NBu appliance 5200 v 2.5
Client AIX.
Thanks, Anish

In any way related to this post?
Are you (still) using a backup network? No way to troubleshoot this without access or co-operation from sysadmins. Please work with AIX admins and ask them for output of the following commands on DB2 client:
bpclntcmd -self
bpclntcmd -pn
After this, check bprd log on master server for incoming connection request from client.
See if master is resolving the client's IP address to same hostname that is in the DB2 policy's Client list.
Any reason why you stopped responding to this post?

There is much talk these days about sexism in the tech industry. The talk has centered around the Silicon Valley culture of "brogramming," Elaine Pao's sexual harassment suit against prominent venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins, Siri's inattentiveness to female needs, and scantily clad booth babes at tech shows, among others. Apparently, electronics company Asus didn't get the "sexism-in-tech-is-a-touchy-thing-now" memo. Yesterday, the company tweeted this photo from the Computex tech show in Taiwan:
The Twitter photo of a booth babe from behind was accompanied by the caption, "The rear looks pretty nice. So does the new Transformer AIO." The double reference in the former is obvious. The latter is a new dual OS desktop from Asus that runs Windows and Android.
Seriously, Asus? Hope the company's electronics are not as behind the times as the gender attitudes evinced on the corporate Twitter feed.
The attempt at humor fell flat, reports Gizmodo, and when the predictable outraged tweets rolled in, Asus deleted the tweet and apologized: "We apologise for the inappropriate comment on Twitter earlier. We will take steps to ensure this doesn't happen again."
Kudos to Asus for not doing the lame "we're sorry if you were offended" apology which previous SocMedia Idiocy of the Day honorees have issued.
Of course, the photo, while reflecting poor judgment on behalf of the Asus tweeter, also captures the reality of the Computrex show: ladies in tight dresses putting electronics on display, a.k.a. booth babes. While shows like this, and importantly CES, put the future on display in the form of gadgets, they also bring troubling antiquated attitudes toward women into sharp focus.

I didn't know Phillip Seymour Hoffman, the gifted and apparently bedeviled actor who died of a heroin overdose this week. I have, however, known more than one friend who died from the same drug. They were middle class, suburban guys, honors students, active in their churches and communities. They would now be in their mid- and late-thirties, had they lived. But they didn't live.
Even as a growing number of states begin the process of piecemeal decriminalization of marijuana, hard drugs like heroin remain another matter. Many people from both sides of the political spectrum agree that our marijuana laws ought to be radically reformed. I've written before about the economics of legalization. Civil libertarians, both right- and left-leaning, argue that prohibition offends principles of personal autonomy. Pot, though, is relatively safe — no more dangerous by most metrics than alcohol or tobacco, for however much that means. The fact that, as a general rule, people don't die from smoking weed makes decriminalization an easier sell for legal reformers.
Heroin, on the other hand? The Drug Enforcement Administration reports that 3,038 people died of heroin overdoses in 2010, the last year for which the DEA has published statistics. A federal survey suggests that 335,000 people used heroin in the U.S. in the past month. (Compare this to an estimated 19.1 million pot users in the same time span, with nary an overdose among them.) Even when an overdose doesn't kill, the addiction often leaves the user with an abysmal quality of life. Heroin addiction is also a perniciously treatment-resistant dependency. Abstinence rates for recovering opiate addicts are about 10 percent after one year.
Opioid replacement therapies like methadone offer one possible avenue for recovery from heroin addiction, but they are fraught with a lot of their own problems. Under federal law, methadone must be administered primarily at heavily regulated clinics often located in seedy neighborhoods. Also, methadone is a maintenance drug — instead of using heroin daily, an addict uses methadone daily for the long term. Furthermore, methadone carries its own alarming rate of overdose.
Ibogaine, a Schedule I drug in the United States, is available in many other countries, including Canada, South Africa, the Netherlands, Mexico, Norway, and the U.K. among others, where it is used to treat addiction. Unlike methadone, ibogaine is not a maintenance therapy: addicts typically experience relief after one or two doses. Its efficacy rate is reportedly extremely high. So, why isn't this potentially life-saving anti-addiction drug available in the United States?
Who's to blame for the legal unavailability of ibogaine?
Derived from the iboga plant, ibogaine's therapeutic potential for addiction was discovered by Howard Lotsof in 1962. The compound apparently works by blocking the receptors in the brain that trigger cravings, halting the horrible withdrawal symptoms associated with opioid detox. Controversially, ibogaine also acts as a hallucinogen. While many recovering addicts who have used ibogaine report that the hallucinatory experience is a meaningful part of their treatment — helping them to uncover underlying psychological reasons for their drug dependency — ibogaine treatment typically only involves one or two doses to effectively break a heroin habit. So, it's not like advocates of ibogaine are recommending that the drug be used for ongoing recreational trips.
In 1967, the U.S. government banned ibogaine because of its hallucinogenic properties. Lotsof, the early advocate of the drug's therapeutic benefits, established a private clinic in the Netherlands. Other clinics sprung up around the world in the many countries where ibogaine remains unregulated.
Researchers like Deborah Mash, a neuroscientist specializing in addiction at the University of Miami, and Stanley Glick, a neurobiologist at Albany Medical College, have studied ibogaine's anti-addiction effects. In 1995, Mash and Howard Lotsof secured approval from the FDA to study the drug's potential for use in humans. Unfortunately, the research trials fell through for lack of funding. So, ibogaine remains illegal in the U.S., despite the hope it may provide for addicts.
After her trial was discontinued, Mash opened a private ibogaine clinic in St. Kitt's in 1996. Many Americans now travel to clinics outside the U.S., especially the many Mexican clinics located just south of San Diego, for treatment that is illegal within our country's borders.
Some proponents of ibogaine blame its unavailability in the U.S. on the pharmaceutical industry for not developing and marketing the drug. They argue that Big Pharma has the funding necessary to vet ibogaine to the FDA's satisfaction, but drug companies choose not to do so because it wouldn't make good business sense. Research trials like Mash's are often financed by pharmaceutical companies.
Beyond this issue of research funding, lobbying efforts for the reclassification of ibogaine would be more effective coming from pharmaceutical companies than from the recovery community. Congress is not known for its keen responsiveness to the pleas of heroin addicts.
Big Pharma's development of ibogaine might be a great thing. Why blame the companies, though, for not pursuing something they don't deem in their best interests?
Countries that permit ibogaine use don't have the backing of Big Pharma any more than here in the U.S. What they don't have is Big Government creating a regulatory blockade for preventing addicts and treatment professionals access to a potentially life-saving therapy. Ibogaine treatment elsewhere typically takes place in private clinics, staffed by medical personnel administering ibogaine hydrochloride while monitoring the patient's heart rate and other vital signs. If ibogaine were not classified as a Schedule I drug in the U.S., such private clinics would be possible here. Right now, only American opiate addicts fortunate enough to have the resources for "medical tourism" are able to travel outside the country for treatment.
Unregulated ibogaine treatment is not without danger, but neither is being a heroin addict. Individuals trying to get well deserve to evaluate the relative risks and have the opportunity to choose for themselves whether to pursue ibogaine therapy to aid in their addiction recovery. The U.S. government should not stand in the way.
My prayers go out to Phillip Seymour Hoffman's family and friends, especially his three children. I know the pain of losing someone to heroin. May no one ever have to mourn this sort of loss again. And may no one have to suffer from this addiction a day longer than necessary, especially when there may be effective treatments available.

Letter J - Feb. 1 - 14
Time to scrap one of my favorite letters (my son's name starts with J). I will be sending the people that completed the letter I pages my letter J from the Travis kit. (You can purchase the alpha here in case you miss any deadlines.) But, even if you have not participated before, feel free to step in and have a go at it. Our goal is to have an entire Alphabet Album completed with each letter. You may use the letter from the Travis kit, make your own, or use one from another designer/kit. Have fun and think of creative ways to showcase a word that begins with the letter I. Remember, we are focusing on children for this album, so your layout should have pictures of kids. If you need some inspiration, check out this link. Post your layouts in this gallery and make a post in this thread so we can all appreciate your work. We will also begin something new in this challenge starting this month. Everyone who participates will not only receive the next letter in my Travis alpha, but also have a chance to win my Serendipity alpha that goes along with the Serendipity kit (in stores later this week). One random participant will be chosen to receive the alpha.
Happy Scrapping!!
Count me in.....
Here's mine:
Thanks for looking,
WOOHOO!! I *made* that J all by myself! Found a tutorial for how to make chipboard letters; it was easier than I thought, so I just went to town with it!
My nephew and his wife had a baby boy on February 1st and named him Jack. What a wonderful J word! They had opted to not know the *** and hadn't shared potential names, so it was a big surprise to all of us. Thank you new Mom and Dad for a great J page.
Just Spending Time
Here is my J LO:
This was my first challenge, and my first LO ever completed! I think it turned out well for my first attempt :D
Here it is:
Congrats to Robbie for winning the Serendipity alpha. The next ABC Album Challenge will be up shortly for one more chance to win the Serendipity alpha.

Explaining Party
Adaptation to Electoral Reform:
The Discreet Charm of the LDP?
This article
traces the effects of Japan's 1994 electoral reform on Japan's governing
party, the LDP. Factions have lost their central role in nominating
candidates and deciding the party presidency but remain important in
allocating party and Diet posts. Unexpectedly, koenkai have grown
stronger because they perform new functions. PARC remains important but
diminished by the enhanced policymaking role of party leaders in the
coalition government. A central theme is unpredicted organizational
adaptation—"embedded choice"—since 1994. We speculate on how this
flexibility of the LDP, adapting old organizational forms to new
incentives, its "discreet charm," may affect Japanese politics and the
LDP's potential longevity in power.

Thousands of nutritious recipes. Choose your kind of healthy. Learn more
I have made this several times and my husband and I love it. I use red pepper flakes instead of hot pepper sauce. I also use more broth than the recipe calls for because it seems too dry otherwise.
Very easy to make and it was delicious, even my husband who is very picky when it comes to food just LOVED IT.....
I thought it was ok. I like spicy foods and want to learn some cuban cusine, however I didn't think this was that great. I also would like to know why the pictures show black beans with red peppers when the recipe calls for green pepper. It was just ok.

Release: 05/09/2014
RENO, Nev. – The University of New Mexico team gutted out a tough 5-4 victory over the Nevada Wolf Pack Friday night to remain tied for first in the Mountain West. UNLV, which is tied with the Lobos, won 6-1 at San Diego State. UNM (34-16-1, 17-8) is seeking its third straight regular-season title.
Josh Walker pitched seven strong innings to earn career win No. 26 and move within one of both the UNM and Mountain West records, while Alex Real hit a three-run homer in support and Aaron Siple drove in the eventual winning run with a sacrifice fly on a foulout in the seventh. It was only the third home defeat in conference play for the Wolf Pack (26-21, 14-11) this season, while it was the 14th win away from Lobo Field for UNM this year.
"That was a great win by our ballclub," head coach Ray Birmingham said. "We knew it was going to be a dogfight, but we battled the whole way against a very good Nevada team."
The 14 wins is tied for fifth most in a single season in program history with the 2013 and 2008 teams.
The only damage Walker allowed came on a pair of home runs: a solo shot in the first and a two-run shot in the sixth. Between the first and sixth, though, he allowed just one hit: a double in the second. He threw 58 of his 90 pitches for strikes and allowed just five hits and two walks.
After Nevada's solo home run in the bottom of the first, the Lobos answered back in the top of the second. Jack Zoellner doubled with one out, and Jered Meek came through with two outs and knocked him in with a single to left.
In the third, the Wolf Pack made a crucial decision that came back to haunt them. Sam Haggerty led off with an infield single to short. Siple moved him to second with his 15th sacrifice bunt of the season. Nevada then chose to intentionally walk Chase Harris to set up a potential double play.
It didn't get one.
After John Pustay struck out swinging, Real hit the first pitch he saw over the fence in left to give the Lobos a 4-1 lead they would not relinquish.
In the sixth, Nevada drew closer on its second home run, but the Lobos again answered immediately. Leading off the top of the seventh, Lane Milligan smacked a double to right-center, and, when the center fielder bobbled it, he advanced to third. One batter later Siple flied one down the left-field line that was too close not to play. The left fielder made the catch, and Milligan tagged and scored standing up.
That extra cushion was required as the usually stout bullpen ran into a bit of trouble in the eighth. Freshman Carson Schneider, who has been phenomenal as one of just two Lobo lefties in the pen, hit a batter with his first pitch and then gave up a single to put men on first and second. Jake Cole was then called on in relief.
He retired his first batter on a sacrifice bunt that moved both men into scoring position. He then walked back-to-back batters on 3-2 pitches to force in a run and move the tying run to third. But he got the next batter to ground into a double play to Haggerty at short, who made a nice stop on a one-hopper to his left, to end the frame and escape the jam. Victor Sanchez then pitched a perfect ninth to earn his ninth save of the season.
Haggerty finished 2-for-4 with a double and was the only Lobo with multiple hits. UNM only recorded seven for the game, but the Lobos still out-hit the Wolf Pack. They also played tremendous defense as they turned three double plays and did not commit an error for the first time since April 20 against Texas Tech. Pustay made a career-high seven putouts in left, and Meek tied a career-high with six assists from second base.
Walker has now thrown a career-high 93.0 innings and has pitched at least six innings in 11 of his 13 starts. He will have a chance to tie Rob Hoover for the UNM record and Kyle Winkler, formerly of TCU, for the Mountain West record next Thursday against Air Force.
In the meantime, though, the Lobos must remain focused on the Wolf Pack. The Lobos now own a three-game lead on Nevada, but their goal is to win the conference. If they win out they will guarantee themselves at least a share of the title. First pitch for Saturday night is scheduled for 7 MT, with Colton Thomson scheduled to get the start for UNM.
Notes: Lobo pitchers did not strike out a batter for the first time since April 13, 2013 … eight of the 13 hits in the game went for extra bases … the school record for away victories is 19, which was set back in 2000 … Haggerty's double was his six, Zoellner's was his seventh and Milligan's was his second.

The Eagles won the important away game against Nürnberg. On Eintracht's side Barnetta (21'), Joselu (49', 88'), Madlung (53') and Kadlec (90'+2) scored. Drmic (64') and Campana (72') scored for FCN.
Eintracht striker Joselu scored twice today
At the outset of this match Nürnberg was only three points behind the Eagles. On the other hand, a victory against Nürnberg would mean for Eintracht to draw level with Hannover and Bremen as well as a six-point distance to the relegation play-off slot. For both teams a good result was of utmost importance. Nürnberg had a great start into the second half of the season, but lost the last three games. The Eagles missed to score important points during their previous games against Hamburg and Freiburg. With a victory in Nürnberg they could regain some of the lost ground.
Alexander Meier and Sebastian Jung were injured during last weeks game against Freiburg. While Jung recovered in time, Meier was forced to pause. On top of this, Eintracht captain Pirmin Schwegler was struck down with flu, so that manager Armin Veh had to make some changes in the starting line-up by nominating Tranquillo Barnetta and Martin Lanig. Fortunately, Carlos Zambrano was back after the suspension following his tenth yellow card.
Both teams started off cautious and had their priorities in keeping the other team far away from their goal. The game had a lot of fouls in the midfield area. Hence, it was a free kick that led to Eintrachts first chance. Barnetta kicked the ball into the penalty box area. Despite no one touching it, Nürnberg goalie Raphael Schäfer was surprised that the ball came onto his goal, but saved in the very last moment. Fifteen minutes into the game Nürnberg had their first good chance to take the lead in this game. Frantz passed the ball to Pekhart, who beat Eintracht goalie Kevin Trapp but the ball only hit the outside of the net.
In the first twenty minutes 40,079 fans in Nürnbergs Grundig Arena saw a very intensive match, in which both teams medical staff had to intervene. On Eintrachts side Carlos Zambrano needed treatment. Nürnbergs Ondrej Petrak was even forced off and had to be substituted by Hanno Ballitsch. Fortunately, the Eagles came out of this first part of the game with the upper hand by taking the lead. Emanuel Pogatetz tried to pass the ball from Nürnbergs half, but was blocked by Stefan Aigner on the right-hand side of the field. Aigner quickly passed to Barnetta who managed to put the ball in the back of the net from six meters distance (21).
The Eagles gained confidence from the 1-0 lead and were now in control of the game. On Nürnbergs side, Drmic had the chance to score with a header but put the ball half a meter to the right of the goal. A few seconds before the first half was over Eintracht had a good chance to extend their lead. After a great cross from Constant Djakpa it was again Barnetta who headed the ball, but was denied by Schäfer.
The beginning of the second half was completely different from the cautious start of the first. In their first exchanges both teams tried to get in front of the goal as soon as possible. Two quick strikes helped the Eagles to get on track for their first away win in the second half of the season. The assist for the second goal came again from Aigner, passing from the right side of the penalty box to Joselu, who slammed the ball into the goal from 11 meters distance (49). And then, only seconds after the 2-0 lead, the Eagles scored again. After a cross from Barnetta, Schäfer denied a header from Lanig. The rebound landed in front of Madlungs feet who scored the third goal of the day (53).
Ten minutes into the second half of the game no one seemed to doubt that the Eagles would travel back to Frankfurt as the winning team. However, with nothing left to loose Nürnberg started to put the Eagles under a lot of pressure and scored in the 63rd minute. Drmic elegantly got a hold of the ball and put it past Kevin Trapp into the top right corner of the net (64). For Eintracht this goal came too early since Nürnberg regained confidence. Despite still being up by two goals, the Eagles seemed intimidated. Nürnberg now felt that they still had a chance to turn the game around and, consequently, scored their second goal. Campana hammered the ball into the goal from 26 meters distance (72).
At this point of the game, with almost twenty minutes left, the first order of business was to regain control. The Eagles managed well to keep Nürnberg from getting in front of the goal again. Then, a red card for Pinola in the 80th minute following a professional foul put an end to Nürnbergs attacks. Joselu was fouled just inches before the penalty box by Nürnbergs left back. This incidence dealt a decisive blow to Nürnbergs attempts and put the Eagles back in charge. Joselu scored his second goal of the game after Schäfer saved a shot from Vaclav Kadlec (88). Seconds before the game was over, Vaclav Kadlec scooped the ball into the net for the final score of 5-2! (90+2)
After this important win against a direct opponent, the Eagles have not much time to rest. The next match is already on Wednesday (20.00 CET) at home against Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Clothes on the floor, papers strewn across the room and pencils hiding so they can never be found. The tools are there: Closets, dressers and desks. But they aren't utilized. Organization is lacking.
Some students' rooms can be messy enough during the summer, but with the start of school fast approaching, the addition of school supplies, new clothes and other necessities can mean organization will be put on the back burner.
For those who don't have enough time to organize by themselves, there are people like Lisa Silsbee. She is a personal organizer and specializes in, well, organizing people's lives.
Silsbee is the owner of Get Organized, a business in which she is the sole employee. She said she has been professionally organizing for around 10 years.
She is hired by clients who need organization in their lives, but just don't have the time or the skills to do it themselves. Silsbee organizes everything from closets and cupboards to basements and bedrooms. She also organizes student's rooms and their school-related supplies.
"I always find a way to organize things," Silsbee said. "Everybody can be organized. Even a messy organized is organized in some way."
Silsbee said she never tries to organize a space perfectly, because not everyone needs things perfect.
"I organize around the personality of the client I am helping," Silsbee said. "People like to be organized. If it's too perfect, it's not going to keep getting used. It depends on each person."
When it comes to organizing a student's room and work area, Silsbee said a designated study area is a good idea to keep kids focused.
"Whether it's the kitchen table or bed, make sure that's the student's area," Silsbee said. "The study area should have no distractions so students can get their work done."
Silsbee said setting a study time is an effective way to keep up a routine for students to devote their studies to.
In addition to a study space, Silsbee said a place for students to put their backpacks when they come home is a good way to keep track of their stuff.
"If students fill their backpack with supplies the night before, they can be ready to walk out of the door the next morning," Silsbee said.
A master calendar can be a great way to plan daily activities, Silsbee said.
As far as the actual organization of supplies and schoolwork goes, Silsbee likes to use bins to keep things tidy. She said she likes to reuse a lot of items.
"I go to secondhand stores and thrift stores to help organize certain items," Silsbee said. "I use things that you wouldn't normally think would organize things. It also helps so I don't stick my clients with a huge bill."
Silsbee recommends students have three-ring binders with separators for each subject. Also, separate folders for each subject come in handy. She said separating each class keeps things simple and organized.
After she is done organizing a space, Silsbee said the client usually keeps up the organization. But Silsbee does return to some clients every few months to maintain the organization.
Silsbee said she never gets rid of anything she organizes because she always finds somewhere to put it.

SOHO Router/Server Project
- I'll be building a linux based router PC (If all goes well), which will also act as a normal SOHO (small office home office) style server.
- Electricity - I need to run a SOHO server PC anyway, so combining the SOHO with the router will have some power saving benefits
- Power - A standard home router is generally on much weaker hardware, such as a slower embedded processor such as a RISC processor with 16 megs of ram. While I admire how much has been accomplished through custom firmware, I am looking for something much more capable.
- Flexibility - With a full blown linux server as my gateway, I will not be restricted in hardware or software compared to an embedded router solution which the entire unit must be changed in order to upgrade a single component (wireless hardware, networking bridge, ram, cpu, etc). Software for a 32 bit/386 platform is vastly available, while building software for the different processors for embedded devices can be a difficult and tasking process. I do understand an impressively large number of apps have been ported and designed to work very well with OpenWRT, but it is no comparison to the number of applications available to the 32 bit platform.
- Connectability - Using a linux server pc as a router will allow one to connect and route any type of layer2 network that can be ran on a standard linux box. Basically this means it will be more or less trivial to add a bluetooth tethered connection and route my entire network through that in the event of an outage. I could also use a 3G cell service without much headache, while getting these services to work under an embedded solution is quite difficult. Finally, dual WAN failover is very interesting to me. With DSL direct only being $20/month and ISP's beginning to monitor and restrict bandwidth, getting 2 ISP's and having dual wan failover is something we all may have an interest in as power users someday. I am preempting this a bit by getting a setup with dual wan failover which will ensure reliability of service and the ability to see the internet from 2 completely different vantage points without the need for purchasing commercial or dedicated lines such as a T1 for my residence.
Why Not?:
- It's a good question worth asking. I have had many suggest already to not do this, so if you're thinking this may be a good project for you to delve into yourself, you may want to consider some things. It will be very difficult to get this system working properly without purposely selected hardware and a rather difficult set up. To be entirely honest, BSD might even be a better OS to run on something like this, but I'm not as familiar with it so I have chosen linux for the time. Since I am just using the cheapest hardware I can get, or am simply using the stuff I already have laying around, getting it to play nice might be one of my biggest challenges. If this is something you're considering trying yourself, please first fully understand the challenges involved, and the alternative solutions that may be more suitable
Also, there's a great risk the configuration may be just an SSH interface, rather than a pretty web GUI that we all love with those off the shelf routers. I might be able to use webmin or something similar, but doing so may incur a security risk as well as not really have the routing options available (more system maintenance than anything, really)
Finally, as has been mentioned many times, price. The price of this may be much higher than a regular WRT54GL router which you can buy off of the shelf, load OpenWRT/DD-WRT/Tomato on and get up and routing your network in a matter of an hour or less. This setup will be far more costly as far as price to purchase and maintain equipment, and the time required to put into it. I would not recommend this for everyone, but it may be something we begin to see more of in the future.
- I hope to have this server act as a routing platform for routing my home network through unlimited amount of gateways to the internet. I may be using cable, dsl, cell phone service, 56k, etc. This will change depending on availability to me and what I feel like playing with. I also use skype (soon switching to magic jack) for my home phone service, I need to have this server run this as well, since one of my primary objectives is to combine all of my server needs into one machine. This may be challenging due to lack of linux support both skype and magic jack hardware have. Finally, I have some standard services I'd like to serve, including: NFS, Squid, httpd, ftpd, identd, pybnc, and openvpn. I will be adjusting this list constantly according to needs of course.
- I have not entirely decided yet, but since there seems to be no viable existing linux distros which will allow what I am trying to accomplish, I am leaning towards Gentoo due to its flexibility, and lack of a "standard build". IPCop and pfsense are very appealing, but do not offer the amount of expansion I'm hoping for. It would be silly to go through all the effort then be limited by the distro I chose. eBox ubuntu based SOHO distro is _very_ appealing, but unfortunately makes my current box chug quite a bit because of how much it has on it.
- Processor: P3 1Ghz
- Ram:512mb pc133 (non-ECC)
- Network:3Com 3C920 Integrated 100mbit NIC, Linksys NC100 100mbit NIC, Foxconn 54g pci Wireless card (rt2500 chipset)
- Expansion:5 PCI slots (2 in use), 2 USB slots (1 in use)
- VOIP:Zoom Skype ATA 5900
- Cost:$30 (so far)
If you have any suggestions for good hardware to use, especially for wireless (range+linux compatability most important) and VOIP (magicjack+skype) please let me know.

kirāta — the aborigines named Kirātas; hūna — the Hūnas; āndhra — Āndhras; pulinda — Pulindas; pukkaśāḥ — Pukkaśas; ābhīra — Ābhīras; śumbhāḥ — Śumbhas; yavanāḥ — persons who do not follow the Vedic injunctions and who eat cow's flesh; khaśa-ādayaḥ — Khaśas and others; ye — those who; anye — similar others; ca — also; pāpāḥ — sinful persons; yat — of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; upāśraya — of the devotees; āśrayāḥ — taking shelter; śudhyanti — become purified; tasmai — unto Him, Lord Viṣṇu, because of whom they become purified; prabhaviṣṇave — to Lord Viṣṇu, the most powerful; namaḥ — respectful obeisances.
"'Kirātas, Hūnas, Āndhras, Pulindas, Pukkaśas, Ābhīras, Śumbhas, Yavanas and members of the Khaśa races, and even others who are addicted to sinful acts, can be purified by taking shelter of the devotees of the Lord, due to His being the supreme power. I beg to offer my respectful obeisances unto Him.'
This is a quotation from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (2.4.18). This verse was spoken by Śukadeva Gosvāmī when Parīkṣit Mahārāja asked him for a description of the creation. While offering obeisances to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śukadeva Gosvāmī described the unlimited potencies of Lord Viṣṇu, who can purify the lowborn creatures mentioned herein.

Swamp sparrows. Marbled godwits. Yellow-rumped warblers. Ruby-crowned kinglets. Sandhill cranes. LeConte's sparrows. Turkey vultures.
This is a short list of the birds reported in Grand Forks this week.
Yet, I have been fixated on American robins, perhaps the most familiar species of all birds in our area, and certainly one of the most abundant.
Perhaps this is because the robin is convenient, and I've been traveling.
Robins occur almost everywhere in North America, except the high Arctic.
Nor are robins especially fussy about habitat.
In our area, robins show up in city parks, backyards, farmyards and shelterbelts. Almost every spot has its robin. Or two. Or more.
Robins are gregarious birds. Spot one. Spot another. That's pretty much the rule with robins.
Robins are hardly so exclusive as that, however. They occur in quite large flocks sometimes.
Ralph Kingsbury, the Herald's economics columnist, pointed this out to me earlier this year. He'd seen a big bunch of robins and was surprised by their number. I told him I thought big bunches of robins were unusual. But I've realized that was misleading. In fact, robins occur in quite large flocks.
Once, hiking in the North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park in western North Dakota, I came upon a big group of robins drinking from the Little Missouri River. It was early winter, and they'd converged on an area that offered open water.
On Christmas bird counts at Devils Lake and Edinburg, N.D., I've encountered flocks of robins.
So, they are hardly solitary birds.
But I hadn't considered how these groups of birds interact until last week, when a flock of 20 or so robins settled into the space between our house west of Gilby, N.D., and the county road that passes it. The robins behaved like guests at a human dinner party, moving from group to group, sometimes exhibiting aggressive behavior, but soon settling down, apparently eager to avoid giving offense.
It's wrong to ascribe human characteristics to wild creatures, of course. Nature's creatures have their own society with its own norms.
As it happens, robin society is not very well understood.
It's easy to see the interactions between robins, of course. Robins are so common that they can hardly be overlooked.
Familiarity doesn't suggest understanding, however, at least in the case of robins.
Here's what Don and Lillian Stokes, authors of "A Guide to Bird Behavior," have to say about the American robins: "There are some important mysteries surrounding its life."
One of these is its courtship activity. There doesn't appear to be any.
Courtship rituals are often obvious among birds. These range from mutual preening to elaborate displays.
None of these has been documented for American robins. However abundant, however easy to observe, robins haven't been caught courting.
Robins are unique for another reason. Their behavior varies seasonally.
We're all familiar with the predatory activity of robins in summer. They move methodically across lawns and parklands in search of worms.
In other seasons, however, robins are fructivores — a fancy word for fruit-eater. They often settle into ornamental crabapple or mountain ash trees, for example.
Increased planting of fruit-bearing trees — especially those that hold their fruit throughout the winter — has helped American robins survive Northern winters. Robins are hardly common in Grand Forks in midwinter, but it's not unusual to spot one on a winter walk.
Still, this species remains one of the most reliable signs spring has arrived.
Whatever the weather, robins show up in our area in big numbers in mid-March. This suggests that they are more responsive to light than to weather conditions.
By early April, most years, robins are abundant here — but whether these are the robins that will stay and raise young here is uncertain. It may be that early arrivers are bound farther north. Or perhaps not. We simply don't know.
We do know, however, that robins are quite faithful to the territory where they were born. Extensive research has shown that most robins return to areas quite close to the place where they were fledged.
Yet, there's no way of knowing whether the robins at the dinner party on my lawn are bound to stay or bound to go.

You've hit a turning point in your career. Whether it's because your job has slowly become less satisfying over the years, or you woke up one morning and realized you hated going to work, you've decided it's time for a change.
If only you knew what you wanted to do next. Details.
The "I don't know what I want to do, but I know it's not this" predicament is confusing at best. Besides the issue of figuring out what you want to do, there's also reality to consider. You might think you'd make a great marriage counselor, but do you really have the time, energy and means to get the necessary training? Will your career change require you to relocate? How will you convince potential employers that, after 10 years in one career, you have the necessary experience for a new one?

An Awesome Coat!
By Charlene
from Taos, NM
See all my reviews
This coat has a quality feel which is luxurious, dense and yet it is very lightweight - almost a surprise when you put it on! It is even more surprise when you step out into cold Taos, NM and have nothing but a lightweight shirt on underneath . . . and stay toastie warm! I love it! We looked for a hat to go with it and didn't find one. But I see the one on this review form... I want it!
A Beautiful Coat
By LadyGail
from Kent, WA
I ordered this coat because I wanted a warm and dressy coat that would also work with jeans. It is perfect! It looks gorgeous and can be used for dress up or down. I have the Leigh Lamskin Jacket and assumed from the fit of a medium (roomy) that I should order a medium in the Jesslyn sheepskin coat. Not so; had to send it back and get a large, which fits perfectly. I am 5'6", average build, usually wear a size i8, so don't know why the medium felt snug. That is my only caution.

Warm n cozy
By Nancy in New England
from Connecticut
Love this coat! I'm replacing a shearling coat I bought over 26 years ago. This one is wonderful. Warm and cozy, not heavy and bulky. Beautifully tailored nice details. Delivery was very prompt. Expect and hope for another 26 plus years!
Perfect in every way!
By Pam
from Maryland
I love everything about the coat. I was hesitant to purchase such a pricey item without seeing it first or trying it on but ,the young woman who helped me over the phone ,was so very pleasant and knowledgeable in helping me determine the size that would be best for me. She also reassured me that, if it didn't fit or I was displeased in any way, that I would be fully refunded .The coat arrived and I was delighted. I was more than delighted, I was thrilled. Everything about the coat was perfect. It fit me perfectly and I love the workmanship , the color and the overall appearance of the coat. It was packaged ,for shipping ,to protect the coat and , once again , everything was done so professionally. This will not be the last item I purchase and I am only looking forward with much anticipation to my next purchase!

Wonderful Coat!
By Miller
from Sheridan, WY
This is the best coat I've owned to date. It fits perfectly and keeps one warm, even in the sub-zero weather we had in the past month.
Stylish Shearling
By Zia
from Evergreen, CO
The sheepskin is soft and pliable which allows it to move with me and is stylish while being warm. The shearling collar lays beautifully whether the coat is open or buttoned up and the length looks great with slacks, long skirts or whatever I have worn. It buttons fairly easily and as the buttonholes loosen up it will be easier to unbutton.
Great Coat/a bit pricey
By Traveler
from Princeton NJ
My girlfriend loves her Jesslyn Shearling Sheepskin Coat. However, in my opinion, the price is above its value. If you have the money to spend and you want a happy gal, buy the coat. If you are more concerned with value, look elsewhere.
Completely cozy and chic
By Lita
from Baldwinsville, NY
The staff at Overland understands customer service and satisfaction . The third try was the charm that lead to my Jesslyn Shearling Coat. There was no problem what so ever with the return process. The coat that I now wear at every opportunity is not the least bit bulky and is extremely comfortable. It really is better than that. The softness , warmth, and beautiful styling makes this coat a pleasure to wear. Thank you all at Overland for your helpful, prompt and courteous service.
Treat yourself to rustic elegance
By V.
from San Fran Bay Area-purchased for Santa Fe
Very rich, elegant dark chocolate brown in person. Purchased for winter trip to Santa Fe, kept me warm without having to layer underneath. Impressed by how well it is made, perfect weight not too bulky nor lightweight, cozy, comfortable, true to size. Hard to tell from the pic but it is detailed w/braided trim @ seams. I feel like a million bucks wearing it, well worth it.

IBM IBM reported more mixed earnings results on Wed. as Q3 revenue slid 4% year to year to $23.7 billion, though earnings narrowly beat Wall Street's expectations at $3.99 per share.
Dragging down IBM's revenue for the quarter were its services business, down 3 percent year-to-year, and its systems and technology group, which took a 17 percent beating. Consensus for revenue had been for IBM to make $24.7 billion, $1 billion more than it realized.
System z servers saw 6% growth while all other systems brands saw double digit year-to-year decline.
There wasn't better news with growth markets, which were down 9 percent. Currency in Asia Pacific is a killer for IBM's bottom line, as revenue in the region was down 15% year-to-year, a large discrepancy from its 4% drop at controlled currency.
Analysts had warned in advance that the industrywide outlook for IT spending has not been a positive one between political instability and volatile currency rates. As the first "large IT vendor" to report Q3 results, Cantor Fitzgerald was expecting a canary in the coal mine type response. Right now that canary would be currently gasping for air.
Once a pillar of stability among tech stocks, IBM missed in Q1 of 2013, failing to reach consensus from Wall Street for the first time since 2005. Revenue was down last quarter 3% as the company has tightened belts with some units, laying off some employees and furloughing hundreds of others in its U.S. offices.
But IBM has also pursued an aggressive acquisition strategy it first laid out in 2010 as a five-year plan. IBM recently told FORBES one is on schedule, with cloud and software revenue showing the largest areas of growth for IBM already. The company has spent $10 billion of a planned $20 billion acquisitions, most recently Xtify for its Smarter Commerce suite and the $2 billion purchase of SoftLayer to improve its cloud infrastructure.
As expected, cloud and software were the company's bright spots. Software revenue was up 1%, with the Smarter Planet unit that includes Smarter Commerce up 20% on the year, IBM said. Cloud, meanwhile, is up 70% for the year, with its quarterly revenue crossing $1 billion. In large part due to pickups like SoftLayer, IBM is hoping for yearly cloud revenue of $7 billion by 2015.
Both those numbers lag how the units grew for 2012, when Smarter Planet was up 25% and Cloud was up 80%. A slowdown in cloud and software growth would severely limit the company's ability to right the ship when it comes to revenue, which has seen an average for the past four quarters, dropping 5% over the comparable Q3 in 2012.
CEO Ginni Rometty said in the earnings statement that the company is "taking action to improve execution in our growth markets unit" and in flailing business hardware units, which could mean more workforce cost-cutting down the road. IBM did maintain its guidance for the rest of the year of non-GAAP earnings of at least $16.90 with the summer's workforce restructuring charge omitted.

The US Navy has issued a Request for Information (RfI) for anew fighter to replace the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler inthe 2030s.
"The intent of this research is to solicit Industry inputson candidate solutions for CVN [nuclear-powered aircraft carrier] basedaircraft to provide air supremacy with a multi-role strike capability in ananti-access/area denied (A2AD) operational environment," the RfI reads."Primary missions include, but are not limited to, air warfare (AW), strikewarfare (STW), surface warfare (SUW), and close air support (CAS)."
But in addition persistent capability inside an enemy airdefence system, the USN also wants the prospective aircraft to provide othercapabilities found in existing strike fighters. These include organicair-to-air refueling, tactical reconnaissance, surveillance and targetacquisition (RSTA), and airborne electronic attack (AEA).
However, the USN is not limiting itself to manned aircraftor to an entirely new jet.
"The trade space refinement activity will characterize abroad trade space, to include unmanned, optionally manned and manned aircraft,"the document reads. "System attributes and system capabilities will beconsidered in the context of cost and affordability. Concepts that are derived from legacy aircraft, 'cleansheet' new design aircraft, as well as innovative technology conceptsspecifically tailored for the operational context are all relevant."
At a minimum, the aircraft should be able to operate fromNimitz and Ford-class carriers and should be a "complementary CVW [carrier airwing] asset to the F-35C and an unmanned persistent intelligence, surveillance,and reconnaissance (ISR) vehicle with precision strike capability."
The RfI sets atarget initial operational capability (IOC) date of 2030 and will consider aprospective jet's capabilities, in addition to technical risks and total costof ownership. "If a spiral approach to incorporation of systems and/ortechnology to achieve full operational capability is employed, provide thetimeline to achieve full capability," the document reads.
But there is no programme just yet. "All we're looking foris information, says Rear Admiral Donald Gaddis, the Naval Air SystemsCommand's (NAVAIR) programme executive officer for tactical aviation. "Thisparticular AoA [analysis of alternatives] is going to be a long one," he adds.
Nonetheless, the earliest Super Hornets will be reaching theend of their 9000-hour life spans by the 2030s. Those aircraft will have to bereplaced, but their successor will be defined as much by what industry believesas possible as the USN's own projected needs, Gaddis says. But he is willing tosay that those requirements will call for far greater kinematic performance andincreased range.
The industrial base, however, is of serious concern, Gaddissays. Boeing, he says, may not be around as a fighter design entity as theF/A-XX programme is assembled and the technology–to include advanced airframesand engines–to build the jet is matured. "I think that's going to be something[Office of the Secretary of Defense] is going to have to think about," he says.
That is also something the US Air Force will have to contendwith on its nascent F-X programme to replace the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor.
It is also conceivable that the Department of Defense mightcompel the USAF and USN to do a joint AoA, Gaddis says. "But I think theattributes of a carrier aircraft and an air force programme maybe different,"he says. "But there is always that potential."
In addition to the F/A-XX, Gaddis says that the USN's C-2Greyhound carrier cargo-delivery aircraft will have to be replaced. The serviceis conducting an analysis of alternatives to figure out what it needs to do.Gaddis says any such programme would have to wait until the "next decade," butthere will be a "full and open competition."
Meanwhile, NAVAIR's programme manager for the V-22, MarineCol Greg Masiello is pitching the tilt-rotor as the best, most natural,replacement for the aged C-2s. The V-22 has recently been certified to operatefrom the decks of USN carriers and would give the navy enormous flexibility, hesays.
Meanwhile, the USN should also be issuing a final requestfor proposal for the next generation jammer programme to equip the EA-18G fleetin June, Gaddis says. The emphasis will be on getting a "mid-band" capabilityout to fleet by 2020, but there will also be a strong focus on affordability.

In Flash Professional CS5 Essential Training, author Todd Perkins explains the fundamentals of Flash Professional CS5, the industry standard for creating animations and interactive applications for the web, desktop, and mobile devices. This course starts with the basics, such as using the drawing tools to create simple animations, and progresses to automating animation with tweens and adding interactivity with ActionScript. This course also covers how to add sound and video to projects, enhance realism with effects like easing, and publish a project to a variety of platforms. Exercise files are included.
While you can apply preset easing patterns in the Motion Editor, if you really want perfect control over the easing in your animations, the best thing to do is to create the easing patterns yourself. In this movie, we'll look at how to add custom easing to an animation through the Motion Editor. So I'm going to select my olive animation, hop on over to the Motion Editor. In the Motion Editor, I'll expand my view and scroll down and I'm going to add a Custom ease.
Now I'll click on the Custom ease to expand it and then I'm going to expand my frame viewing area to cover the whole span of frames for my animation, just make the Motion Editor a little bit bigger and now I'm ready to create. The default easing curve is a straight line, so it goes from 0 to 100. You can actually click on any one of those points and I get Bezier curves that I can modify. What I want to do for this animation is pretty similar to the bounce effect that's already built into Flash but I want to create a bounce effect that happens a little bit more quickly and the olive doesn't bounce as high.
So I want a really short brief bounce for an olive, since an olive doesn't bounce in the same way that a ball would bounce. So what I'm going to need to do is add anchor points to my easing. So I'll go to Frame 60 and then I'm going to click the Add or Remove keyframe button in my Custom ease. So I'll put an easing keyframe there. Now I'll click and drag this all the way up to 100. Remember that you can hold the Shift key to make sure that you keep that on the same frame.
I can move my Bezier handles however I want. If I have an S curve then the animation will start off kind of slowly. It will hit the ground slowly and that will create more of a realistic animation. So I'm going to leave it like that and then I'm going to add the bounce. So I'm going to move in one of the handles. Remember that you can hold the Option or Alt key to just move one handle at a time, so I'll create a little bit of a bounce. Notice that the lowest point in my bounce is about 85. You can control this to be however you'd like, but this is what I want for my animation and I'll add another keyframe at about Frame 150.
Click and drag that in, adjust the Bezier curve, and then I'll add one more bounce. So I'll go to Frame 190, add one more keyframe for the easing, keep it at the bottom, adjust the Bezier curves one handle at a time, a little bit lower than the first one, and then I'm going to use the handles for the end of the animation to make them straight, so that the olive stops moving after the second bounce. Once this is set up, I'm going to apply the easing to the Y property.
So I'll scroll up, find the Y property in the Basic motion section, click the Easing dropdown, apply the Custom ease, you can see the green curves for my animation and then I'll test this in the Flash Player. So watch the olive fall down. I'm looking at the animation, seeing it goes slow at end and the bounces as slow as they are, don't really look right. So let's make some adjustments to our custom easing. Scroll down and then I'm going to click the first keyframe in my easing, where the animation is at 100%.
I'm going to adjust the Bezier handle and then I'm going to move the keyframe over a little bit so the animation will happen over a shorter span. I'll also adjust the bouncing. Let's see how that looks in the Flash Player. The olive falls, bounces, and stops. Now if you really want to perfect this animation, you can work on it more and fine-tune it as much as you like. Just know that when you want to apply custom easing, you can come over, do it in the Motion Editor, and then you can control how your easing works by adding keyframes and adjusting the Bezier curves.

To the Editor:
I'm quite displeased with all the news coverage concerning Medicaid and John Kasich's Job Budget 2.0 because it accuses him of expanding Obamcare in Ohio. This is not true.
Governor Kasich already blocked Obamacare from entering Ohio last year when he said Ohio wouldn't pay for Obamacare's healthcare exchanges. This would have cost Ohio families millions.
John Kasich isn't expanding Medicaid in Ohio, he's reforming it by reducing out-of-control growth to the program. The bottom line is that Obamacare is still the law of the land.
Kasich's new Jobs Budget 2.0 reconciles many of the deficiencies Medicaid is traditionally known for. Nationally, fraud accounts for 10 percent of health care waste. Under the new budget, Ohio increases Medicaid's auditing capacity to stop fraud and abuse. This will improve Ohio's ability to recover payments when someone has no other insurance coverage.
Ohio is not heaven and it's frustrating when people pretend it should be. Our elected leaders still have a lot of work to do and Governor Kasich's Jobs Budget 2.0 deserves our support.
