Giving new meaning to the term 'tax hike'
THE term "tax hike" has taken on a new meaning. For some people, a tax policy they don't like means that they take a hike — even if their public outrage has to be walked back.
Phil Mickelson is but the latest example of a trend that also involves French actor Gerard Depardieu, former French President Nicolas Sarkozy and Facebook co-founder Eduardo Luiz Saverin.
Mickelson threatened to leave California over high taxes. He then apologized for being so outspoken about a combined federal, state and local tax rate that he said would take more than 60 percent of his income. Depardieu made headlines for loudly complaining about his native country's wealth grab. He and Sarkozy have threatened to live elsewhere. In the past, movie star Yul Brynner fled the U.S. over its tax policy. Denise Rich, the socialite and songwriter, offers another and more recent example.
Most tax hikes aren't taken by renouncing citizenship to boost one's fortunes. They're done by moving from a relatively high-tax state to a state with lower taxes or no personal income tax. Examples include Tiger Woods (California to Florida), Rush Limbaugh (New York to Florida) and Glenn Beck (New York to Texas).
When running back Reggie Bush came out of the University of Southern California in 2006, he said he liked the idea of getting drafted by Houston because Texas has no personal income tax. He was picked instead by New Orleans.
People really do vote with their feet, but they must have the means to relocate and the ability to live anywhere without being tied to a job that requires a daily commute. Thus, the tax ex-pats are typically wealthy and see significant savings by changing their mailing address. Government policy should always keep this in mind. Punishing success repels people. After Mickelson's complaint surfaced, fellow golfer Woods said he moved to Florida in 1996 because of California's high tax rates — which have gotten much higher since Woods fled.
Every year the Internal Revenue Service releases a list of Americans who've renounced their U.S. citizenship. In 2011, the number of Americans who renounced reached nearly 1,800, more than the combined totals for 2007, 2008 and 2009. The IRS list doesn't say why the renouncements took place, but the fact that the tax man keeps the list (as opposed to immigration officials) is instructive.
With the federal debt growing exponentially and a massive new entitlement (Obamacare) on its way, all Americans will be saddled with more expensive government and higher tax bills, no matter where they live. This is all the more reason for states to keep their share of the tax burden as low as possible.
To that end, we offer a reminder that there's a limit to how much people are willing to pay for government. For 50 years, the cost of government was 35 to 37 cents of every dollar of income. The amount went up and down from year to year but rarely strayed from the 35-37 range.
A seminal book published in 2004 by David Osborne and Peter Hutchinson makes the case that government spending should be based on what the people think they can afford. The Washington, D.C., and California models have it backward: Increase spending and then find ways to pay for it, through borrowing (Washington) or higher taxes (California). "The price Americans are willing to pay for government is relatively fixed," Osborne and Hutchinson wrote.
Domiciles, though, aren't fixed. Tax policy compels some people to take a hike.

With the temperatures rising here that might be welcome! Here comes the summer!!!!
Warm wishes from the Netherlands, Erik
What ever fears the coming of summer awakens, Erik, you can always stop for a drink and toss in the ice!
There'll always be plenty of ice here now that the south winds are blowing again. The third snowfalls have come to the peaks this winter yesterday.
Warm regards,
Very clean fresh water. It must be sweet. Nice shot. LIKE
Cheers, Jeff
Certainly very fresh and very cold, Jeff, but the glacier abrades a lot of rock flour from the base and walls of the valley, so a drink of this water would give you your daily intake of required solids! :)
Thanks for enjoying the photo and for your encouragement.
Very nice picture Ian, there are some very nice coloured rocks in the stream. But I'm glad that spring is here and I hope we get a good and warm summer. Greetings Berend
Thanks Berend. The glaciers are huge conveyor belts delivering rocks from all the upstream geologies.
Keep warm until the summer warms your world again.
Great vision, Ian. Is it readily drinkable?
Certainly is, Ah-Pong. Just snow compressed in the freezer for a some years with a little rock-flour added!! Pure mineral water, one could construe!
Warm regards,

Will state aid for in-home care be cut for your family?
GARDEN GROVE Irene Bertuzzi had one question on her mind Tuesday as she settled into a seat in the back of the Dale McIntosh Center, a community advocacy center for people with disabilities.
Will the state cut off the small pay check she collects for taking care of her 44-year-old, mentally-ill daughter?
"I hope I'm not going to get cut completely," said Bertuzzi, 74, a retired school recess attendant. "Whether I do it or not, my daughter still needs care."
Bertuzzi was one of about 75 parents, advocates and disabled people who gathered to find out whether they'd be affected by some $266.5 million in cuts this year to the state's In-Home Support Services budget.
Only one thing was clear after the meeting: There's no simple answer to Bertuzzi's question.
Lawmakers in July took a carving knife to the state program, which provides at-home care for people who are blind, disabled, or older than 65 so they can live safely in their homes. Services range from assistance with household chores to personal care such as dressing and bathing to insulin injection and treating wounds. It's often seen as an alternative to assisted living or nursing facilities.
While the state has said generally what type of services will be reduced and the type of clients who will be affected, there's no way for folks to find out if they're at risk of losing help before they get a letter in the mail saying they're being cut off. That's because the cuts are calculated based on each client's score and rank on a disability scale. Those whose scores indicate they have the greatest need for services will generally be safe. Those who rank lower will lose some or all of their help.
Problem is, those scores were never considered important in the past so most people who get in-home health care don't know how they rank. And the California Department of Social Services isn't telling people when they call.
"When we mail out letters to recipients, we'll make all that clear," says Social Services spokeswoman Lizelda Lopez. It's unclear when those letters will go out and the cuts will take affect, she says. The state already has missed a Sept. 1 deadline.
More than 462,000 elderly and disabled people across the state - and more than 17,000 in Orange County - receive aid for in-home care. According to the state Department of Social Services records, more than 30 percent will either have their services, reduced, eliminated, or have to pay more for the same help. That figure also includes the elimination of a program that helps higher-income Medi-Cal patients pay for their share of at-home care.
Wendy Aquin, who oversees the program in Orange County, says the county is still waiting for guidance from the state about how to carry out the cuts and how many people would be affected here. But she says statewide projections of impact generally hold true locally.
For Bertruzzi, getting cut off would mean the difference between being able to afford nights out to dinner, social events and trips to Disneyland with her daughter.
For others, it could be much worse.
"It's going to hit people with hardly any warning, and it's like, who's going to pay the bills next month?" said Shirley Adams, a 63-year-old single mother, who cares for her 36-year old wheel-chair bound and mentally disabled daughter. "It's going to put a lot of people in nursing homes."
So instead of teaching people how to find out if they'd be affected, Tuesday's meeting in Garden Grove was aimed at helping people understand how to react. Aleyda Toruno, a senior advocate for Disability Rights California, outlined the complicated formula for calculating the ranking, and explained how to file an appeal challenging them.
"This is a lot to expect of people if they're already in need," a woman in the audience said.
Toruno agreed: "People are going to need help, and there are probably going to be more people who need help than those who can offer it."
If you have questions about your In-Home Support Services, contact Disability Rights California: 800-776-5746 or www.disabilityrightsca.org. If your services are cut and you want to request an appeal hearing, call 800-743-8525.

PITTSBURGH -- As Cincinnati went through pregame warmups under falling snow at Heinz Field, receiver/kick returner Mardy Gilyard tried to warm his teammates' spirits by telling everybody, "Hey, we're on the beach."
But with 1:26 left to go before halftime, the beach -- where the Bearcats frolicked last year during Orange Bowl week -- seemed awfully far away. Pittsburgh's dominating running game and pass rush had caused things to snowball against Cincinnati, which found itself trailing 31-10. Even Gilyard, ever the optimist, admitted that "it started to get real cold."
That's when the rest of the team turned to Gilyard for some heat. Running back John Goebel, several defensive players and even head coach Brian Kelly grabbed him on the sideline. We need something on this kickoff, they implored.
"I prayed that I could take one back," Gilyard said. "And then everything parted like the Red Sea."
Gilyard's 99-yard return for a touchdown finally gave Cincinnati some life, and the defending Big East champions refused to die the rest of the way. Despite trailing by two touchdowns early in the fourth quarter, the No. 5 Bearcats rallied to win 45-44 thanks to Pitt's late missed extra point and a 29-yard touchdown pass from Tony Pike to Armon Binns with 33 seconds left.
"Our guys are resilient," Kelly said. "Our guys believe, I believe in them, and you've got to have that belief. We've won 18 consecutive regular-season games. Don't count us out."
But is it enough to count the 12-0 Bearcats into the BCS title game? Barring a loss by Texas in the Big 12 title game later Saturday night, Cincinnati will join the 2004 Auburn squad as the only BCS conference teams to go undefeated and not play for the national title in the BCS era. Even a Texas loss might not do it, as Cincinnati would still have to climb past undefeated and No. 4 TCU.
Kelly said he didn't think his team deserved to get into the BCS title game ahead of Texas, but that it should go instead of TCU with a Longhorns' loss. Cincinnati players said they feel they've done enough to play for a national championship. And so, apparently, does Pitt receiver Jonathan Baldwin, who interrupted the Cincinnati postgame news conference to shout, "Good job. Now go win the championship."
"We did our part," senior safety Aaron Webster said. "Now it's in other people's hands."
Big East commissioner John Marinatto, who attended Saturday's game, said the league "strongly believes Cincinnati should be in the championship game" and that any undefeated BCS conference team deserves that privilege. However, Marinatto is not a playoff advocate and did not sound like someone ready to promote sweeping change.
"We recognize as a group the system is not perfect," he said. "At our annual meetings, we'll get together and talk about whether anything needs to be changed."
In order to even make this debate relevant, Cincinnati had to make a lot of changes defensively on Saturday.
Pittsburgh (9-3) scored on each of its first five possessions. Freshman sensation Dion Lewis carried 29 times for 108 yards in the first half alone as the Panthers' offensive line obliterated the Bearcats defense. Cincinnati looked like toast.
Pitt scored only twice after halftime, though, as Lewis -- who finished with a school-record 47 carries for 194 yards and three scores -- had to work a little harder. The defense incorporated more run blitzing, often bringing Andre Revels or J.K. Schaffer to the point of attack to shore up its deficiencies.
"We came in as a defense at halftime and said, 'We just have to tackle him,'" Webster said. "'Don't try to get the big hit, because he'll just dribble out of them. Just tackle and play the next down.'"
A few stops were all the Bearcats' offense needed. They scored three touchdowns in the final 11:09. When Pitt missed the extra point after a Lewis score with 1:36 left, Kelly had one thought: "Cool."
"I was like, man, they're going to give us a shot here," he said.
But Kelly said the comeback would not have been possible without Gilyard's first-half kickoff return. The team often follows his exuberant personality, and Gilyard has had the uncanny ability the past two seasons of coming up with a huge play when the Bearcats need it the most. That's one big reason why the Bearcats are back-to-back Big East champions.
"I'm a praying man, and God is good," Gilyard said.
In other words, for Cincinnati, life's a beach.

Brand new cedar fence
I did not have the benefit of speaking to the guys that build the fence so I am really without a clue. Could someone please tell me what's best to do.
I have built several decks and most recently a children's play structure out of cedar. I, too, was told to let the wood 'dry out' for a season before finishing. I tried this on the first deck (and on the play structure only because I just didn't get around to finishing it) and found it to be VERY difficult to restore the wood to it's natural state (I used an oxalic acid-based restorer which is supposed to be the best for cedar). As a matter of fact, I am now faced with sanding the playstructure (which I used the restorer to avoid) because the restorer left a white haze on the wood.
The other approach I tried with one of the decks was to finish it right away. I used a linseed oil-based finish, but almost immediately noticed mildew starting to grow. Apparently even if there is no obvious mildew, any that is present will start to grow once it has been sealed in and given a 'friendly' environment in which to thrive.
So...if I was to do it again, I would treat the new wood with an anti-mildew agent (most of them are just a chlorine bleach solution) and then finish it with an appropriate clear preservative.
Hope that helps.
P.S. Check out the Western Red Cedar Lumber Association website at http:\\www.wrcla.org lots of good advice on this kind of thing.

Philadelphia at Portland
Kickoff: 6:55 p.m. Monday at Jeld-Wen Field.
TV: ESPN2 (cable Ch. 36) broadcast begins at 6:30 p.m.
Radio: 750 AM and 940 AM (Spanish).
Tickets: A very limited number of tickets were available on Sunday through Ticketmaster outlets.
Last season: Portland won 1-0 at home and the teams played to a scoreless draw at Philadelphia.
Storyline: Winning home games, especially against teams they are favored to beat, is a must if the Timbers hope to make the playoffs this season.
Lineup questions: Who will start wide in the midfield? Two of these guys: Darlington Nagbe, Eric Alexander and Kalif Alhassan. Will Mike Chabala or Rodney Wallace get the start at left back?
Familiar Philly faces: Forward Danny Mwanga and midfielder Freddy Adu. Mwanga played briefly at Portland's Jefferson High School after moving from the Congo. He starred in two seasons at Oregon State before the Union made him the first overall pick in the 2010 SuperDraft. Adu, still only 22, is entering his ninth pro season. He made a newsworthy debut as a 14-year-old in 2004 with D.C. United.
Matchup to watch: Timbers attack vs. Union defense. With three returning starters on a defense that was among the best in MLS last season, the back line appears to be the most settled area for a Philadelphia team that added 13 new players to its roster. Portland is hoping for a positive start for Kris Boyd. To get it, the Timbers need purposeful possession in the attacking third, especially on the wings.
What will the Timbers Army do? Given the occasion and national TV, expect the Army to raise a creative tifo banner in the north end before kickoff.

While digging through my sewing room recently I found a box containing articles and memorabilia from my early years at The Post.
It amazes even me to realize that I have been writing this column for seven and a half years (golly moses!) and I read the very first issue of The Post with great interest.
Though my husband Tommy bought me a scrapbook with sheet protectors to save all columns, I have not kept them all. But have been fairly faithful in putting them in that file, though I've missed a few when we have been out of town. I have kept them on computer disks recently and wish I had been more diligent in such recordings in the event my grandchildren might want to read them. There are still plenty there.
I also found partial diaries from 2005 and 2006 which included a lot of previously forgotten memories.
Many were in the form of epistolaries (copies of emails I had written to family and friends), and although I have only had time to look at the highlights I can't wait to read them leisurely on my back porch.
I write so frequently that I don't remember anything anymore. Consequently, I am so grateful to find my own memories from the past.
My siblings and I took a family trip to visit our only relatives in Virginia recently and one sister and I fondly remembered a prior trip though we couldn't remember the year.
To my delight I found an entry from 2006 detailing the trip. It doesn't' seem like it was eight years ago!
An entry Sept. 28, 2005 said: "The night before I found out I had colon cancer Tommy and I had a date in Nashville; he was on Channel 50."
Because my cancer was detected through a routine colonoscopy I was blessed only to have surgery, but I read additional entries that chronicled that scary week along with notes of encouragement and good wishes from dear friends.
On Thursday, Sept. 8 (2006) I wrote:
"Mike Pirtle called today to ask me to write a column for his new paper, The Murfreesboro Post. At first I said, no way... not ever, don't even think about it... but when I thought about it more I thought I could do it. He had assigned it a name -- Mrs. Murfreesboro. Between the time he called me (8:30 am) and the time I met him (11:30) I had written two articles and decided it might not be as hard as I thought. I called him back to say yes."
I heard an interview on National Public Radio with celebrated author Jhumpa Lahiri in which she discussed the work of writing a novel.
She said that she never expects to be happy with it when she is finished, but does hope for a sense of satisfaction. That is exactly that way I feel when I write these columns.
I work hard to find topics that are relevant or with which people can identify, but once it's been sent off to be published it's gone.
My daughter Beth tells me frequently: "I really liked your column this week, Mom," and I will have to ask her what I wrote about because once I rarely think about it again.
It will be fun to sit down reading older issues later.
And even though we are already three months into this year, I plan to create a piecemeal diary of our happenings to date. I will review the calendar and sent emails to help put this year's comings and goings in writing so that 10 years from now I can remember them.
Previous efforts served me well this week and I have learned that finding these old written musings make me realize it's really never too late.
'Til next week.

Why is electronic dissection on the iPad better than real frogs? Argument against iPad : Getting real experience with real frogs is extremely important and different than a virtual one. Is this true?

Hi @Karmeet,
Studies show that students who use humane alternatives perform as well as, and in most cases better than, students who dissect animals. Studies have also shown that students interested in biology or science sometimes lose that interest after being forced to go through the traumatic experience of dissecting animals. E-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com to cut out dissection at your school!

I have heard of this before but they say dissection is for education and to learn about the animal, if you still see same stuff in same place and everything I'd say it should be the same in teachers eyes. The only difference is you don't need the to worry about harming animals. (I think)You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

pin glasses are disordered magnetic systems that have led to the development of mathematical tools with an array of real-world applications, from airline scheduling to neural networks. Spin Glasses and Complexityoffers the most concise, engaging, and accessible introduction to the subject, fully explaining what spin glasses are, why they are important, and how they are opening up new ways of thinking about complexity. This one-of-a-kind guide to spin glasses begins by explaining the fundamentals of order and symmetry in condensed matter physics and how spin glasses fit into--and modify--this framework. It then explores how spin-glass concepts and ideas have found applications in areas as diverse as computational complexity, biological and artificial neural networks, protein folding, immune response maturation, combinatorial optimization, and social network modeling. Providing an essential overview of the history, science, and growing significance of this exciting field, S pin Glasses and Complexityalso features a forward-looking discussion of what spin glasses may teach us in the future about complex systems. This is a must-have book for students and practitioners in the natural and social sciences, with new material even for the experts.

A terrific per-screen average placed director/actress Julie Delpy's filmmaking debut "2 Days in Paris" atop the iWBOT. The sexy, couple-in-crisis comedy was the top limited-release debut for Samuel Goldwyn Films (which is releasing the film with Red Envelope) since 2005's "The Squid and the Whale" and the breakout, art-house comedy of the summer. Director Jeffrey Blitz's coming-of-age satire "Rocket Science," meanwhile reached number two on the iWBOT, which ranks films by per-screen average. IFC First Take's "Dans Paris" and Yash Raj Films' "Chak De India" were also newcomers joinging the chart's top five, both screening in limited release.
The iWBOT is based on per-theater averages reported by Rentrak Theatrical, the complete indieWIRE BOT weekly chart is available at indieWIRE.com>.
"2 Days in Paris," French actress-turned-filmmaker Julie Delpy's saucy relationship comedy earned $173,641 from its debut on ten screens with New York's Angelika and The Landmark in Los Angeles as its top-performing venues. With an iWBOT-leading, per-screen average of $17,364, "2 Days in Paris" more than doubled the per-screen debuts of specialty comedies "The Ten," "Eagle vs. Shark" and "Introducing the Dwights" and edged out the French-language farce "My Best Friend."
In fact, "2 Days in Paris" nearly matched the $19,444 per-screen mark for Searchlight's "Napoleon Dynamite." Michael Silberman, President of IDP Distribution, credited the strong turnout to successful word-of-mouth screenings, extraordinary media coverage and glowing reviews. More importantly, the people who checked out "2 Days in Paris" liked what they saw.
"We think the best thing about the movie is the movie itself," Silberman said. "This movie is a hit with critics and it's clearly a movie audiences want to see." "2 Days in Paris" will hold its ten locations Friday and slowly expand to 75 locations August 24 and 125 by Aug. 31.
"We're going to open slower in order to build national awareness. We have a careful, platform release pattern based on anticipation of additional radio and TV appearances." ("2 Days co-star Adam Goldberg is scheduled to appear on "The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson" August 20). "A movie like 'Becoming Jane' is an easily digestible movie for its target audience and can roll out on a quicker basis," continued Silberman." "This is about building audience awareness because once audiences see this they will tell their friends to see it."
Picturehouse's "Rocket Science," director Jeffrey Blitz's debut comedy about a shy boy joining his high school debate team to impress a girl, earned $58,536 from its limited debut on six screens. The film's per-screen average of $9,756 reached number two on the iWBOT with the ArcLight in Los Angeles leading all venues. Picturehouse expands 'Rocket Science" to 40 screens Friday.
Janus Films' restored 35mm print of Jean-Luc Godard's "Pierrot le fou" returned to the iWBOT as the top exclusive with earnings of $6,187 from the Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles, approximately 15% less than its mid-June debut at Brooklyn's BAMcinematek. The 1965 classic, starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina, moves to Chicago's Music Box Theatre Friday.
The weekend's second, Paris-set debut, director Christophe Honore's "Dans Paris," a male melodrama set among two brothers and their divorced father, earned $13,154 from exclusive runs at New York's IFC Center and the E Street Cinema in Washington D.C. "Dans Paris" reached number four on the chart.
Despite coverage on NPR and numerous positive reviews, Kino International's "Crossing the Line" grossed a timid $2,605 at New York's Cinema Village, only good enough for the 18th spot on the iWBOT. "We're disappointed with the film's performance," said Mike Schmidt, Kino's Assoc. Director of Theatrical Sales. "We had many cues, from the press and from a promo event that we held in New York, that people were interested in the film, but sometimes these indicators do not live up to expectations. We're still confident the film will find its audience in other markets and on DVD." 'Crossing the Line" holds at the Cinema Village and expands Friday to San Francisco.
Koch Lorber's "Blame it on Fidel," director Julie Gavras' debut comedy about a young girl with activist parents, lost half its audience, earning $8,829 from two screens. The latest in a series of recent French-language releases, "Blame it on Fidel" outperformed the $1,929 per-screen average of Sony Classics' "Moliere" but is far overshadowed by the summer's top French titles, Picturehouse's Edith Piaf drama "La Vie En Rose" ($8,989,913 cumulative) and IFC's Patrice Leconte comedy "My Best Friend" ($819,888 cumulative).
Miramax's "Becoming Jane," a romance inspired by Jane Austen's young adulthood, earned just over $2.9 million from 601 screens. While its per-screen average of $4,828 is a near 50% drop from its debut weekend average, the period romance is on track to best the Richard Gere drama "The Hoax" and become Miramax's top-earning 2007 release.
With $33,459 in weekend earnings, IFC First Take's "This Is England" reached a cumulative box office of $95,849, and its $3,718 per-screen average placed 12th on the iW BOT. "This Is England" expands Friday to Washington DC, Atlanta and Philadelphia.
German director Stefan Krohmer's family drama "Summer '04," which The Cinema Guild opened exclusively at New York's Film Forum, failed to crack the iW BOT Top Ten. Its sophomore week earnings of $2,830 placed the festival favorite in the 14th spot.
More successful was New Yorker's "The Willow Tree," Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi's soulful drama about a blind professor who regains his sight. "The Willow Tree" earned $3,902 from its exclusive engagement at New York's Lincoln Plaza Cinemas; a 35% drop from its debut weekend. "Live-In Maid," Argentine filmmaker Jorge Gaggero's class drama about a Buenos Aires divorcee struggling to retain her luxurious lifestyle, earned $11,060 from four locations.
Of all holdovers, Magnolia Pictures' Iraq War documentary "No End in Sight" continued to be the best performer. Its $5,647 per-screen average, less than a 25% drop, reached the sixth spot on the iWBOT. With more than $235,000 in cumulative box office, "No End in Sight" has in three weeks bested the $202,928 total earnings of the 2006 Iraq War documentary "Iraq In Fragments."
New entries on the specialty playing field this week include Picturehouse's video game documentary "King of Kong," a Slamdance Film Festival purchase. New Yorker debuts Chinese director Zhang Yang's Cultural Revolution drama "Sunflower." Looking to repeat the success of the Al Gore/global warming documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" is Warner Independent's climate change documentary "The 11th Hour," which debuts with the promotional help of its celebrity narrator and producer, Leonardo DiCaprio.

Federer, Murray advance to Aussie Open quarters
MELBOURNE, Australia The toughest sides of the men's and women's draws at the Australian Open are playing up to expectations. Now, a consequence of that smooth sailing is the likelihood of some semifinals being worthy of any Grand Slam title matches.
Second-seeded Roger Federer and Andy Murray stayed on course Monday for a semifinal in their half of the draw, with No. 1 and defending champion Novak Djokovic possibly waiting for the victor in next Sunday's final.
Serena Williams, chasing her third consecutive Grand Slam title, is still on course for a potential meeting with top-ranked defending women's champion Victoria Azarenka in the semifinals, with French Open champion Maria Sharapova, the top player in the other half of the draw, likely to be the opponent for the final.
With Djokovic and Sharapova advancing to the quarterfinals on Sunday, the other four easily won their fourth-round matches on Monday. Federer concluded the night session in Rod Laver Arena with a 6-4, 7-6 (4), 6-2 win over Canadian Milos Raonic, while Murray took advantage of Gilles Simon's ill health and fatigue for a 6-3, 6-1, 6-3 win.
Williams and Azarenka were even more dominant, losing just four games between them against their Russian rivals. The third-seeded Williams beat Maria Kirilenko 6-2, 6-0 and Azarenka defeated Elena Vesnina 6-1, 6-1.
Federer has won four of his record 17 major titles at Melbourne Park, where he has reached the semifinals or better every year since first winning the Australian Open in 2004.
The last time Federer failed to reach the last eight at a major was at the 2004 French Open, where he lost in the third round to Gustavo Kuerten. He next plays No. 7 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, a finalist here in 2008.
"You try to win every match you can as quick as you can, saving energy in the process," said Federer, who has the benefit of experience. "At least you have a day in between, that's big."
Five months after he ended a 76-year drought for British men in Grand Slam tournaments with a win at the U.S. Open, Murray is on track to make it two in a row. He'll next play unseeded Frenchman Jeremy Chardy, who beat him the last time the pair met in Cincinnati last year.
Simon was coming off a tough five-set win over fellow Frenchman Gael Monfils.
"After the first few games, it didn't feel like that competitive," Murray said. "Sort of at this stage of a Grand Slam you're sort of geed up and prepared for a tough battle. That's why it becomes hard because the emotions aren't quite into it."
Simon said facing Murray was "a painful hour and a half on the court."
"It is difficult when you run a marathon two days before to run another one two days after," Simon said.
Chardy followed up his upset of 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin del Potro with a 5-7, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 win over another highly-ranked player, No. 21 Andreas Seppi, in the fourth round.
Another Frenchman to advance was seventh-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, who beat friend and compatriot Richard Gasquet 6-4, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2. Tsonga, who lost the 2008 Australian Open final to Djokovic, plays Federer in the quarterfinals.
Djokovic had the day off Monday, but not really.
The top-ranked Djokovic needed 5 hours, 2 minutes to beat Stanislas Warwinka in a match that didn't end until the early hours of Monday, and he'll face No. 5 seed Tomas Berdych on Tuesday night.
There have been few such close matches on the women's side, where Sharapova, who plays Ekaterina Makarova in a quarterfinal Tuesday, has lost only five games in her first four matches. Williams hasn't dropped a set, and Azarenka has dropped just one.

Category: Close Contact Saddles
Purchase: I bought this saddle from usedsaddles.com used for $695. I wanted a quality saddle to show in that would be comfy for my horse.
Likes: I love this saddle. It is sooo comfortable and I think it is the BEST saddle money can buy. It is made for the horse because the CAIR panels make the saddle conform to the horses back and distribute the pressure evenly so it doesn't pinch. For $27 you can get the tree measurement system, which tells you exactly which size your horse needs, from extra narrow to extra wide, then you can get that size to put in your saddle. It makes the saddle fit perfectly. It is also made for the rider in that the knee cushion is filled with air and it soooo comfy. There is also velcro underneath to have removable knee blocks so you can decide what position works for you.
Dislikes: The only thing I don't like about it is that it scratches very easily and the matching tack is quite expensive. Leathers are almost $100, and you have to get the bates brand if you want it to match perfectly.
Quality: I would give the quality out of 1 - 10 a 22, this saddle was well thought out and is great for both horse and rider. It looks like an expensive saddle and I will never get a different saddle. It is only about $1200 used, which is good, because other saddles, pessoa, hermes, butet are around that price and nowhere near the comfort of the horse in mind.
Summary: Awesome saddle, the best money can buy

3 Homemade Acne Treatments
1. Aspirin
Even those of us who are well past adolescence can get the occasional pimple. Put the kibosh on those annoying blemishes by crushing one aspirin and moistening it with a bit of water. Apply the paste to the pimple, and let it sit for a couple of minutes before washing off with soap and water. It will reduce the redness and soothe the sting. If the pimple persists, repeat the procedure as needed until it's gone.
See more uses for Aspirin.
2. Olive Oil
Okay, the notion of applying oil to your face to treat acne does sound a bit wacky. Still, many folks swear this works: Make a paste by mixing 4 tablespoons salt with 3 tablespoons olive oil. Pour the mixture onto your hands and fingers and work it around your face. Leave it on for a minute or two, then rinse it off with warm, soapy water. Apply daily for one week, then cut back to two or three times weekly. You should see a noticeable improvement in your condition. (The principle is that the salt cleanses the pores by exfoliation, while the olive oil restores the skin's natural moisture.)
See more uses for Olive Oil.
3. Toothpaste
Your teenager is bemoaning a prominent pimple, and the day before the dance too! Tonight, have her or him dab a bit of non-gel, nonwhitening toothpaste on the offending spot, and it should be dried up by morning. The toothpaste dehydrates the pimple and absorbs the oil. This remedy works best on pimples that have come to a head. Caution: This remedy may be irritating to sensitive skin.

As a part of National Consumer Protection Week, the Ohio Attorney General is spreading the word about con artists. Attorney General Mike DeWine says all too often scammers prey on Ohioans.
Last week six people were indicted as part of an alleged scam ring that bilked senior citizens out of $400,000. These con artists in particular even impersonated DeWine to scare the victims into giving money.
To combat these frauds, DeWine's office will begin sending informational fliers out with Meals on Wheels programs.
"We plan to put this flier with valuable information about scams and safety tips in the hands of 40,000 seniors in every county in Ohio when they get their meals delivered," DeWine said. "We think education is frankly our best weapon -- best weapon against scam artists because once you hand over or wire money to them, that money is likely gone."
The attorney general also held a contest so students could create informational videos about scams. The winning entries are now posted on the office's website.

There are 83 foreclosures currently in Port Charlotte 19 of them are 2000 or newer, and 104 foreclosures in North Port-75 of them are 2000 or newer. You would probably get a better deal on a foreclosure looking in the North Port area as opposed to Port Charlotte. Many of the homes that are going into foreclosure in North Port are newer and larger than the Port Charlotte homes.
We can send you a list of foreclosures if you are interested in taking a look.
Roxanne Moore, Realtor
Re/Max anchor Realty
North Port/Port Charlotte
Trulia shows 600+ foreclosures in this area.
There are a number of nearly new homes in foreclosure in the North Port/Port Charlotte area priced under $150,000. We would be happy to provide additional information if interested.
The "Eckler Team"
Michael Saunders & Company
Here is some more info on the area.
Cape Coral/Fort Meyers, Fla.
It's also been hit hard by the housing crisis. Home values have plunged and foreclosures have jumped a whopping 442% since 2006. It is on Local Market Monitor's list of overpriced markets, with a 34% difference between actual prices and equilibrium; its counterpart to the south, Naples, comes in at No. 1.
Median price end of 2007: $225,300
Median price end of 2006: $258,900
Percent change: - 13 %
Projected change through Q3 2008: - 17 %
Foreclosures in 2007: (1 for every 24 households) 12,880
Foreclosures in 2006: (1 for every 132 households) 2,375
Change in foreclosures: + 442.3%
Be careful about buying in new developments 10,20,or 30 miles from the coast.
Remember in real estate... location....location...location.
Buy as close to the water as you can afford. Waterfront always goes up the fastest!
There are many short sale and foreclosure properties currentlu on the market in Port Charlotte and North Port. It's difficult to project the actual numbers because homes are constantly coming on and going off the market. We would estimate there are more short sales currently on the market than foreclosures and when these homes move into foreclosure status the foreclosure numbers will increase significantly.
Here's an examle of a typical foreclosure in this locaton:
2006 construction, 3/2/2 pool, approx. 2000 sf, and priced under $160,000.
This is a wonderful time to be investigating purchasing options in this location. And on the other hand, no time to be SELLING.
We hope this is helpful
