WASHINGTON House Republican leaders on Tuesday seized on the Obama administration's one-year delay of a requirement that employers offer health insurance or face penalties, demanding the same postponement for the mandate on individual insurance purchases and promising a series of showdowns aimed at dividing Democrats from the White House.
After more than two years of voting repeatedly and unsuccessfully to repeal the health care law, Republicans believe they are getting traction due to what they see as the administration's self-inflicted wound over the employer mandate.
"Is it fair for the president of the United States to give American businesses an exemption from his health care law's mandates, without giving the same exemption to the rest of America? Hell no, it's not fair," Speaker John Boehner told a closed-door gathering of House Republicans on Tuesday, according to those present.
Some Democrats were also dismayed. Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, the chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee and an author of the health law, questioned whether Obama had the authority to unilaterally delay the employer mandate.
"This was the law. How can they change the law?" he asked.
For its part, the White House continued to look flat-footed on the issue. After an almost surreptitious evening announcement of the delay last week, posted on the Treasury Department's website, the White House is declining to send a representative to a House hearing on the decision that is scheduled for today.

Basically iv been riding since I was a child I am now 21. I gave it up a lot thro secondary school and came back to it wen I was 18 but since coming back iv had a bit of hard time and now im really frustrated and my confidence is shattered.
Basically the one riding school I was at for a year I ended up aving one horse who would always spook every lesson but I was doing ok with controlling it altho it did knock my confidence a bit. But then I was put on a larger horse that was younger and had a accident were my knee was squished between a tree and I ended up on crutches for six months before I finally got surgery. And this left my confidence shattered.
I did after this tho go on a long ride wen I was back with old friends in wales and was perfectly fine and out for four hours was a lovely day.
But since then I was just working in a few yards not really riding.
N then had another accident with a horse in stable - she just basically spooked from the horse next door and I had turned my back to walk out n her she ended up doing a very small rear but caught my back.
Now iv recently been at derwen stud and I couldnt even walk into the stable to put a feed bucket in the corner.
All of this has now left me completly annoyed , disapointed really. I am stil nervous and I realise it will take time but I don't no were to start with improvin any of this - horses n riding used to be a huge love of mine but now I can barely stand near one and its quite upsetting. - can anyone suggest were I need to start and wot I can do. Will it just be a case of going to a new riding stables and explaining all this to them and going from scratch again? I really want to sort all this out.
Thank You in advance :)

- " Very dirty .. I came to find my bed to unchanged after the previous girl. Lounge is very small didn't find a place to sit while eating. Bathrooms are not clean too. Apart from the central location, My overall experience was bad! "
- 28 Dec 2015 zainab Egypt
- " The location is perfect! It is also very useful that you can leave your bags at the hostel while exploring, even if you have not checked in yet. But the showers and the kitchen were quite dirty. Lastly, I did not sleep that well due to noise on the street and due too the pillow: it was as flat as can be. "
- 10 Oct 2015 Chantal Netherlands
- " I really liked that the hostel has a big kitchen and common room! The atmosphere was good and the rooms were totally okay, too. The only thing I didn't like was that the only showers are in the basement, and that inside the showers, there is no shelf or anything to put your stuff on. "
- 10 Sep 2015 Nina Germany
- " Good hostel, nothing to complain about :) Nicely decorated, close to city center, friendly staff, enough bathrooms, ... "
- 29 Aug 2015 Annelies
- " Hostel dirty. Dining area far too small, combined with lounge which staff were lying on floor and I had to step over legs to go back and forth to kitchen. Shared dorm with staff, their space very cluttered and spread out. Not pleased with this accommodation. Would like a refund. "
- 09 Jul 2015 Anonymous USA
- " good location, kitchen facilities could use a lot of attention, especially the frigde with the bad door...inconvenient having the showers on the lowest floor.. "
- 08 Jul 2015 thomas Ireland
- " The water in the men's shower was always cold, and we had to walk up six flights of stairs. But the staff was great and very helpful. The town was absolutely lovely. I would definitely stay there again. Just on a lower level. "
- 05 Apr 2015 Johny USA
- " Perfectly located, with good atmosphere. Room was very small, but quiet. Showers two stores down. Staff very friendly. "
- 04 Apr 2015 Anonymous Poland
- " As a whole the hostel is ok, not tremendous. The hotel manager was quite rude to us when we arrived and is definitely not a customer service champion! He gave us a hard time for making a mistake on the booking although we agreed on paying the extra fee. I also started yelling in polish and made our initial start quite unpleasant. "
- 20 Mar 2015 Guillaume Canada
- " My friend and I spent two nights here and found the hostel to be satisfactory. The staff keep the building clean but it's a really old place and is definitely showing wear and tear. The room we stayed in was always on the chilly side and turning up the thermostat didn't have any effect. The kitchen was nice and the staff were friendly. "

Aaand,may be it late, but merry x-mas again.
this is fucking kool dude ^_^ nice work!! so wat did you do on xmas? cuz i got to the asses of some carolers at my front door X3
Got a bunch of comic books, mostly Adventure Time comics, as well as some stuff by Doug TenNapel. I went out to play some board games with my friends, had a really good time, and finished coloring this drawing the next morning.
My new website is coming along well, I think it will be ready to launch soon.
nice X3 we should chat sometime again XD and your lucky you got all that.....i didn't get jack shit except getting shitfaced after chasing carolers
I prefer Skull Boy x Kerry but no art has been made and I'm hope some is made soon.
I find Kerry and Kitty cutier, but that's just me. Besides, Skull Boy has a love interest, she's just not in the series yet.
So who's the lucky lady that will end up with one the biggest bad ass' in snafu comics?

Higher rating for some issues mentioned in later chapters.
I swear I have not abandoned this fic. It's hard to write because I have so much work to do in college, but I'm writing the chapter little by little as time goes on. I may not be able to upload it until after the hacker problems with MNFF are fixed, but know that this story is still alive and kicking. I am NOT leaving Meera. No way.
Love you all!
Finally!!!! I was in totall anticipation for this!
I feel sorry for meera and i can totally understand. I'm also from India, and lots of people make dirty comments on me being from a filthy country. Anyway I've enjoyed the story so far and it keeps on getting better!

6 years post HBP
H/G and R/Hr(DH spoilers are very minimal, just in terms of a use of a name- it doesnt follow canon storyline wise)
agghhh! This is such a cliffhanger! But Im lovin the story so far. write soon!
Author's Response: Sorry about the cliffhanger, i seem to have developed a taste for them, theyre so fun! I will update soon, i just need to send the chapter to my brilliant beta! Thanks for ur review and im glad u like my story!
As for Harry's child, I think it should be a parsel mouth b/c weren't the Gaunts all parselmouths, so this is a bit of a family thing. But it all depends on you of course.
Author's Response: Yeah, thats a good point, i thought it would run in all the family, but not totally sure...thanks for ur feeback!
Potter's Pentagon: The Five (Book One) by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years [Reviews - 334]
Summary: WARNING! This story contains a jingle-bell antler headband, a shower of potatoes, boy/girl mushiness, underwear karaoke, family trouble, an excessively adorable werewolf, death, the song "Werewolves of London," betrayal, and the word 'Jordan' five times in a row near the beginning of chapter seven.
Twenty-one years after Voldemort's defeat, five fourth-years are faced with a new threat. Will all of the five stay true to the light side? Will they all emerge whole in the end? Will Jordan Potter ever get a life? You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll gasp, you'll sigh! Part one in a trilogy!
Well, after much deliberation and consideration, I've decided to submit my future-gen trilogy! This particular installment is three years old, so it's definitely different from my current writing style, but I'm quite fond of the characters.
DH is disregarded. It's a total coincidence that one of the main characters is named Ted Lupin.
Starring Quicksilver Quills 2008 Best Male Original Character runner-up Jordan Potter, Best Female Original Character nominees Ivy Potter, Haley Potter, and Emma Weasley, and Best Male Original Character nominee Ted Lupin!
Five times nominated (once for each member of Potter's Pentagon!) for the Best Post-Hogwarts story in the 2007 Quicksilver Quills Awards, and nominated for Best Post-Hogwarts story in the 2008 Quicksilver Quill Awards...
that is freaky, i think ur good at cliffhangers and scary endings.
Author's Response: Hahaha, thank you! I\'ve never thought of myself as being good at \'scary\' before (except for when I first wake up in the morning and my hair looks terrifyingly Medusa-like.)
Summary: Everything is going swimmingly in the lives of Sirius Black and Hermione Granger. But that doesn't make a very good story, does it?
Everything is going swimmingly UNTIL the Ministry (infiltrated by several former Death Eaters) passes a horrifying new law that threatens their relationship. How will they cope with this new situation? And will Ron ever learn to say the right thing at the right time?
The much-begged-for sequel to "Smells Like Sirius Black".
is it finished? please don't end it!111
lol! I loved the ending of this chapter! And you make Sirius younger than other authors, which I like.

There She Goes by Jazzinator
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 25]
Summary: Love is not love,
which alters when it alteration finds...
Nyxandriana Brisk: Ravenclaw, sixth year, Shakespeare buff, designated 'odd one out', never been kissed, no one knows her name.
Nyxandriana Brisk: Just fell in love.
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
-William Shakespeare
i like this story, keep it up.
Author's Response: Thank you!
For Bitter or for Worse by Kerichi
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 1016]
All is not well.
George uses work and Firewhisky to cope with Fred's death until a drink with a friend leads to something that dulls pain better than alcohol. Emotionally torn by grief, he struggles to allow Alicia into his life...and then comes baby....
*Winner of the 2008 Quicksilver Quill Award for Best Dark/Angsty Story*
HAHAHAH! I love this chapter! good job!
Author's Response: Thank you! I hope you\'ll say the same about the next one! :D

David Cameron's team spent plenty of time looking at how Benjamin Netanyahu won reelection. Here's 3 lessons they will use to help him win Britain's national vote.
Judge Richard Goldstone, the head of a United Nations commission that this week charged Israel with committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip during its offensive there last winter, believes bringing war criminals to justice stems from the lessons of the Holocaust, according to a lecture he delivered in Israel in 2000.

"There are methods of handling the water that comes back up," Marx added. "It has to be dealt with. You need to put into effect the most reasonable stringent methods."
But, Marx warned, the composition of the frack fluid may not be know until it comes back up so the proper treatment methods may not be available either.
Heath provoked a round of cheers from the audience toward the end of the discussion when he talked about regulating gas drilling.
"If this industry is to going to proceed there ought to be some limits to it," he said. "People have a right to water. This is not political, it's a human right."
The issue of hydraulic fracturing will possibly be settled when the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation finishes reviewing and responding to public comments regarding the Supplemental Generic Environmental Impact Statement.
SGEIS "provides a comprehensive review of the potential environmental impacts of oil and gas drilling and production and how they are mitigated" according to the DEC Web site.
But there is no set time frame for the revised SGEIS to be released.
"We had to provide ample opportunity for the public to weigh in on that proposal," said Maureen Wren, spokesperson for the DEC in a phone interview. "It will be dependent on how long it takes to review and respond to the comments. And then what, if any, changes are necessary to the SGEIS."
Some landowners are anxious to see the review process proceed. They've organized into coalitions for mutual support. They are being offered lucrative lease agreements to have their land developed.
According to the CNY Land Coalition's Web site, the latest gas offers in New York are $6,000 per acre with a 20 percent royalty.
"We can move forward now and do it and get it done safely and bring a lot of jobs and money to these areas that are so depressed," said Dan Fitzsimmons, board member of the Joint Land Owners Coalition. "Bring New York state around and turn it back into being the Empire State which is what we really need to do."

DEATH VALLEY NATIONAL PARK, Calif. (AP) — It gets so hot in Death Valley that you can fry an egg with sun power.
That's what one Death Valley National Park employee did last week, when she took a frying pan to the pavement and posted the video online.
Park visitors park were quick to imitate her, but they didn't use skillets and left gooey messes. The park then issued a plea on its Facebook page to crack down on the egg-frying fiasco.
Death Valley highs have been hovering around 120 degrees, and on Wednesday the park marked the 100th anniversary of the world's hottest day on record — 134 degrees — set there in 1913.
Park rangers say the egg frying has since stopped due to rain and clouds that have rolled across Death Valley.

Music: Bronze Radio Return
Deirdre Kaye

It's so easy to wind up jaded by new music. In a world where even the "influencers" have blatant and utterly trite influences, where can we find new music that isn't already tired and played out? Bronze Radio Return hopes to turn up in your search.

Pomegranates Offer One More Album, Two More Shows
Cincy Indie Rock favorites return with their final album and a pair of final shows. Unless …
After a tumultuous period that included personnel change, a career lull, an identity shift and finally an unexpected and unfortunate dissolution, the members of Pomegranates clearly thought their time had come and gone. But now, in a story twist that is equally unexpected and exultantly hailed by even the most casual fan, the Cincinnati band is taking two final bows on stage at Newport's Southgate House Revival this Saturday, and one final stab at studio redemption with the release of its fifth album, Healing Power.Two years ago, Pomegranates played what they intended to be their last show. The quartet had toured relentlessly behind its fourth album, 2012's Heaven, and when the band finally dropped anchor, the members began work on what should have been their fifth album."We thought we were going to make a noisier Rock record and instead, overall, it seems pretty low key and way more chilled out," drummer Jacob Merritt says. "And it's pretty long, also, with more songs — I don't know if 'sprawling' is the right word."When Pomegranates started shopping their new tunes around, they were more than a little dismayed at the lukewarm reception they received. The departure of multi-instrumentalist Curt Kiser and the arrival of the similarly-talented Pierce Geary infused the band with a fresh perspective, but the indifference to Healing Power flooded them with self-doubt. And with members Isaac Karns and Joey Cook thinking about solo projects, the quartet began to reconsider everything."We were a nominally successful, mid-level band and we had been for a few years," Merritt says. "We gave (Healing Power) to a bunch of labels and managers and no one seemed to care. There was this weird stigma, where people were like, 'You guys have been around so long (the band formed way back in the mid-'00s), and you get on all these great tours. Why aren't you more successful?' And no one wanted to take the jump to help us become more successful. Nothing seemed to happen, and the guys were getting tired of the slow, steady growth and the grind of being away for weeks at a time, so we were very disappointed. The lineup had changed with Pierce, and it didn't make sense to release the album as it was, and we were second-guessing ourselves because no new people in the industry seemed to be interested and we were like, 'Maybe this isn't good.' "Thinking that perhaps they needed to shake things up, with a personnel change representing a good time to implement just such a jostle, Pomegranates dropped their name and adopted the title of the new album as their new moniker."We wanted to call the album Healing Power but at that point, we were like, 'Let's turn a new leaf and just be Healing Power,' " Merritt says. "It seemed to confuse a lot of people, because we weren't doing anything differently. We were still Pomegranates, playing the same set, but there were people who were like, 'I don't know about Healing Power, I like Pomegranates.' That was perhaps a mistake, if you want to call it that."Healing Power lasted for close to a year before the quartet decided to pack it in. The band's official last show came almost exactly a year ago at the request of one of its biggest fans in Virginia, who messaged the group through Facebook and asked if it would consider getting back together to play a wedding. They thought it was a nice way to go out."Our last show was a wedding in a bike shop," Merritt says. "We were like, 'Why not?' We just felt like it."The reclamation of the Healing Power album began with Merritt's friend Ben Wittkugel, who had become interested in the music industry while a student at Indiana University. Knowing Pomegranates were sitting on an unreleased album, Wittkugel proposed an interesting idea."He wanted to start a cassette tape label to go hand-in-hand with a concert promotion company he was trying to get started," Merritt says. "He wanted to put this thing out and we were like, 'Sure. Whatever.' "Wittkugel will release somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 first-edition cassette copies of Healing Power through his Winspear label, and the band has pressed up about 100 CDs — there's also a four-song vinyl EP of re-recorded tracks and one song that was dropped from the album ("I don't know why we were so adamant about not having it on the album because it may be one of the better songs …") — which will all be available at the Southgate House shows. The album and EP will then be available digitally when the limited pressings are sold out."Unless something that happens to people in the movies happens to us," Merritt clarifies with a laugh.Merritt's description of Healing Power as sprawling is appropriate; the album has several propulsive moments, including the staggering, stuttering majesty of the seven minute "Hand of Death" and the tribal electric blast of "House of My Mortal Father." There is also a fairly diverse dynamic across Healing Power's 13 cuts, which careen from those spurts of high energy to atmospheric and moody Pop confections, like the gentle and aptly titled "Taking It Easy" and the melancholic reverie of "Morning Light," with the strolling bounce of the title track finding the middle ground between those stylistic ends of the spectrum. Logically, Healing Power stands as a natural progression from Heaven, which the band also thought would be louder and less constrained, and it also reveals Pomegranates' impending solo directions, as the majority of the album consists of songs that Karns and Cook brought to the band in more or less completed form."In the past, it was 80% Pomegranates, 20% their songs, and this time it's probably 40% Pomegranates and 60% their songs," Merritt says. "It's hard to know, because you perceive it differently than other people perceive it, because you're so close to it. In my mind, (Healing Power) seems less reverb-y and more introspective. Not that there's not a few moments that are a little more up-tempo."Although Pomegranates splintered at the end, there's no hard feelings among the band members; they continue to work and hang together ("We've been in each other's weddings …"). Cook and Geary are working on Cook's solo project, Merritt runs the Sabbath Recording — where Karns also works, including on a recent project with Aaron Collins — and he keeps a busy schedule recording local bands like Dark Colour and The Yugos, as well as bands outside of the area.Pomegranates' live return has generated a huge buzz, with the Southgate show selling out so quickly that the band added a second, earlier show to the slate (both of which will be opened by Keeps). That response begs the question of any possible consideration for maintaining Pomegranates as a side project going forward."I would say, 'We'll see,' " Merritt says, diplomatically. "Obviously, we aren't opposed to things happening if and when the time arises to play a show here or there. Beyond that, I'm not really sure."The band's two shows will be structured the same, with older catalog material comprising the first half of the set and songs from Healing Power populating the second half, which will also be distinguished by an appearance from Kiser, who will join the lineup to play the new songs.Given the fact that these two shows could represent the last time Pomegranates play together for the foreseeable future, though they also seem to be keeping their options open, there is both very little and potentially quite a lot at stake with the release of Healing Power. Still, the band members are happy to just live in the moment and cherish the memory of the impact they've had to this point."I know how difficult it is for a band to find their audience and to play music for people," Merritt says, philosophically. "To know that our music has meant enough to people that, if even 30 people showed up for one show, it's like, 'Cool, you guys still care.' But when you hear stories about people who were suicidal and they heard your music and it changed their lives and they credit you as a piece of why they're still alive — those sorts of things are really awesome. There's people coming from Chicago and Virginia and Michigan and North Carolina (for the Southgate shows). It's cool. We found people that our music really resonated with."Tickets for Pomegranates' 9 p.m. Southgate House Revival show Saturday are sold out, but some remain for the 5:30 p.m. show here.

Denver School of Science & Technology has received a $1 million grant from Oprah Winfrey's Angel Network to help the charter school expand.
Winfrey on her show handed Bill Kurtz, chief executive officer of DSST, a $1 million check. Five other charter school networks got money, too.
"These school leaders are doing whatever it takes," she said on the program that was aired on Monday. "We want to give you something to go back to your schools to make life better."
The other schools that received Angel Network grants include Aspire Public Schools in California, LEARN Charter Schools in Chicago, YES Prep Public Schools in Houston, Mastery Charter Schools in Philadelphia, and New Orleans Charter Science and Math Academy.
DSST now has two school campuses and plans to grow to five campuses throughout Denver to serve at least 4,300 students by 2020.
The high school now has a waiting list of about 500 students and the middle schools have a 200-person waiting list, Kurtz said.
Winfrey's show was about the documentary film "Waiting for Superman," which will be released this coming Friday.
The movie focuses on the state of public education in the U.S. and how American children are falling way behind their counterparts in other countries, even as school spending increases.
"Waiting for Superman does an outstanding job of outlining our country's crisis in public education and the urgency with which we need to act on behalf of students nationwide," Kurtz said. "DSST is very grateful for the support of Oprah's Angel Network to help us expand in order to double the number of four year college-ready graduates from Denver Public Schools."
DSST was one of six high-performing charter networks from around the country featured on the show as examples of public schools that are serving students well.

For Jamai, art has been his passion for as long as he can remember. Through silk-screening, he has found a way to pursue his passion and create his very own business: Animal Instincts Apparel.
Three years ago, while wearing a shirt he had created, Jamai caught the attention of a successful retail business owner. He asked to buy some of his shirts and, impressed by his work ethic, went on to offer Jamai an internship. Within a year, Jamai decided to take what he had learned, both about design and managing a small retail business, and start his own company. "The most challenging part of opening the business was to sit down and decide to actually do it," Jamai explained.
To make sure his business would be a success, Jamai explored each San Francisco neighborhood to discover what sold best. His hard work paid off, and Animal Instincts Apparel is now featured in 15 boutiques across the city, at local crafts markets, and online through his website and Etsy. His unique t-shirts feature his own designs and are available in toddler, children, and adult sizes.
Buzz is building around Jamai's clothing line. He needed a small business loan to meet demand and begin offering more designs, colors, and styles. But, as a young entrepreneur, he was turned away from banks due to his limited credit history.
An Internet search brought Jamai to Opportunity Fund, a local micro lender, and he realized that a micro-loan was "much more manageable" for his business than the larger loans traditionally offered by banks. "Opportunity Fund discussed my budget and finances with me and made sure a loan was the right choice." A $5,000 loan will provide Jamai the capital he needs to incorporate hoodies and sweatshirts into his line, build up his inventory, and take Animal Instincts Apparel to the next level.
As his business grows, Jamai hopes to open his own silk screening facility and eventually expand production to other cities. Starting in 2012, he also plans to launch a donation program that will send a percentage of the proceeds from Animal Instincts Apparel to wildlife organizations.

The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has a long history in cultural resource management and protection. From the creation of roads and bridges which harmonized with the landscape at our inception, to highway beautification programs that included "Beaver Boards" which highlighted our cultural heritage, to our regulatory role responding to laws from the 1960s, we understand the intimate connection between human pathways and heritage. We consist of a qualified staff of professionals who meet Secretary of the Interior's (SOI) Standards for Archaeology and Historic Preservation.
We assist the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in following the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (Section 106) and the Department of Transportation Act of 1966 (Section 4(f)). We maintain a Section 106 Programmatic Agreement with FHWA, Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) and State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), which outlines how we handle both complicated cultural resource interaction and innocuous projects which have limited, if any, effects to historic resources. Our Cultural Resources Staff review all Section 106 documentation, work directly with the FHWA and SHPO offices, develop Section 4(f) documentation, and conduct all Tribal Consultation. Oregon is a state rich in cultural heritage – our program seeks to strike that balance between a growing transportation framework with protection of Oregon's significant cultural resources.
State transportation projects and archaeological resources have been intertwined since the creation of ODOT in 1913. Such resources vary greatly in their nature, content, context, extent, and are non-renewable finite resources. Over 30,000 sites have been recorded in Oregon to date with less than 10% of the state actually surveyed. Each resource and circumstance must be evaluated individually, and appropriate procedures and steps are developed on a case by case basis.
This program is administered by Carolyn Holthoff, ODOT Cultural Resources Manager in the Geo-Environmental Section. While some fieldwork is conducted in house, most is performed through interagency agreements and private contracts. Our team is a nationally recognized program. We also have conducted several educational events such as the Ashland Mock Dig and the Elk Trail Elementary School Mock Dig.
ODOT has the responsibility of reviewing all scopes of work and final products for sufficiency. ODOT Archaeological Staff are responsible for all Tribal Consultation on ODOT projects.
Discovery Region 3 Jacksonville
As our communities in Oregon change through the years, the recognition and protection of our vital historic resources becomes increasingly important. Our work at ODOT is to both see through better transportation connectivity without forgoing the historic fabric that tells us who we are.
The following links are provided to documents which you will need to comply with the regulations designed to balance our historic fabric with transportation development. Click here for descriptions of the various laws and regulations which protect Oregon´s historic resources.
