The Republican leadership must put on a pretense and must put on show, before they push through the next debt ceiling increase and or amnesty.
I have a Pennsylvania name for liberal RINO's making conservative noises right before the election year.
"The Specter Dance"...........
Forcing someone to act as though they have a backbone doesn't mean that they have one.
I'll get a little more excited when this bill is actually on the floor, but until they're lowering Obamacare into a hole in the ground Boner and Co. have proven themselves to be liberal politicians first and American conservatives second.
Obama is really scared of this move. The Tea Party has him rattled. He's getting all wee-wee'd up!
It's the only way to stop the train wreck Obamacare will cause.
Wait until the last day of the current CR then send it to the Senate. Immediately after getting it to the Senate then the House needs to recess.
It funds everything except obamacare.
there is no need to shut down gov't - just a need to shut down obamacare.
When the government gets shut down as the result of a Democrat action, or in action, the Republicans are not without options and if they resort to clever stagecraft they can seize the initiative. They can pass a new continuing resolution every day and every day call a press conference telling the public they just funded the government again, of course, without Obamacare. Let the public understand through these public demonstrations that it is the Republicans who are funding government and Democrats who are shutting it down.
Every day they can walk a new continuing resolution over to the Senate and present it to them. If they cannot get television coverage ( remember when the Democrats walked across to pass Obamacare?) Surely the Republicans can think of something to get themselves face time.
My recommendation, you ask? Speaker of the house Boehner should strip down to a breech cloth and walk the continuing resolution to the Senate. That will both gain him television exposure and reveal his tan lines.
I truly believe a huge majority of the people in this country would support defunding obamacare. What I don't understand is why Boner and Cantor are afraid of not being re-elected when they know most people want it defunded.
Remember, "shutting down the Government" is fiction, it's merely shutting down nonessential services like Federal Parks and Tourist attractions. Social Security and Medicare is guaranteed funding along with the military.
The GOP won't do it. To many in buisness WANT Obama care.
Keep the phone calls and e-mails going.....don't let up!!
As though it were funded in the first place.

Las Triunfadoras De Huampani Group
Update on Las Triunfadoras De Huampani GroupThe group "Las Triunfadoras de Huampani" consists of members who are devoted to their small businesses.
Maria is 44 years old, married, and has two children who are in school. She manages four Internet booths and also sells beauty products and shoes through catalogs. Years ago she was a seamstress. Her loan will be invested in the purchase of keyboards and headsets for her Internet booths.
This group is grateful to the Kiva lenders for the loan that has been provided. In the photo, Maria is standing second to the left and wearing a brown jacket.

Additional Information
About EDAPROSPOEDAPROSPO seeks to use micro-credit to foster productive commercial activity for the sake of economic and social development within vulnerable urban and rural sectors traditionally neglected by commercial banks. By offering innovative products such as technical education loans and microfinance groups for young people, EDAPROSPO helps disadvantaged Peruvians lift themselves out of poverty.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

Daybreak Daily's afternoon dumpster dive into the pop-culture world comes up with some cool things and some things that are just that, as well as the mystery music video.
BET THE FIRST DAUGHTERS DUG IT: Justin Bieber crooned for President Obama last night during the 'Christmas in Washington' concert at the National Building Museum. Per E!, "The annual event, which also featured performances by Cee Lo Green, Jennifer Hudson and The Band Perry, was hosted by Conan O'Brien, who told the crowd that the holidays serve as a reminder of the miracle child worshiped by millions. "I'm speaking of course, of Justin Bieber," joked the talk show host as he introduced the heartthrob. The concert is scheduled to air this Friday on TNT." http://eonli.ne/rvB5Eo
MORE PHOTOS AND A VIDEO: Courtesy of Celebuzz. http://bit.ly/vYLLXR
LAKERS TRADE LAMAR ODOM: He lands in Dallas, and it's hard to understand the logic, unless it's about clearing money space for a potential trade for Dwight Howard, but. . .oh. Right, the other thing, per TMZ, "Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian aren't going to Dallas alone ... camera crews from their E! reality shows will be going with 'em ... TMZ has learned." http://bit.ly/tQn3OZ
PARIS HILTON ALERT: Remember her? Seems her Beverly Hills neighbors don't share her Christmas spirit, per Radaronline, "Hilty threw her annual Christmas party last Wednesday, and there were more than 100 people in attendance. Guests visiting Mullholland Estates must check in at the front gate, and most of Paris' guests all descended at the same time, causing a huge back-up." http://bit.ly/vD59d3
WE AIN'T TALKING GUY LOMBARDO: He was the guy who for years used to ring in the new year and. . .um, never mind. Per the AP, "Hey Justin Bieber - Selena Gomez already has plans for New Year's Eve. Gomez will be ringing in the New Year in New York City's Times Square with fellow teen star Demi Lovato for MTV's live special." http://apne.ws/srXv8S
MICHAEL'S KIDS: Here's wondering whether the youngest knows how to prepare a tasty pig-in-a-blanket. Per People, "Prince, Paris and Blanket are "doing well," uncle Marlon tells PEOPLE, adding that Blanket loves to cook." http://bit.ly/vyvmAj
STRIKE THE POSE: Vogue. You go Meryl Streep! Per Us Weekly, "At age 62, Streep gets the honor for the January 2012 issue of the ultimate fashion bible." http://bit.ly/vyBviB
THE 'BLACK LIST': The is a really interesting read from the Los Angeles Times about how Hollywood operates in the motion-picture food chain. Namely, the 'Black List,' an annual compendium of the most-liked screenplays that have yet to be turned into movies." http://lat.ms/tcJSLV
YEAH, BABY: Mike Myers mulls a Broadway gig, with Austin Powers in tow, per the New York Post, "A source close to 48-year-old Myers confirmed to Page Six, "Mike is in talks to turn 'Austin Powers' into a musical stage show. Mike would be heavily involved in writing the show, but he will not star in it, even though he has quite a good singing voice." http://nyp.st/tFNtGq

US MASTERS GOLF : HE'S GOT TO KEEP GOING AT PHIL TILT; Greg: Attack's Best for Mickelson
Byline: Neil McLeman
GREG NORMAN last night urged Phil Mickelson not to change his aggressive game as the American prepared to launch another Masters blitz.
Mickelson ripped out a record 25 birdies as he attacked the Augusta National course full-on last year.
But his high-risk strategy also saw him he slipped to third behind Tiger Woods and David Duval and fail to claim his first Major.
The world No.2, who has 20 wins on the PGA Tour, also showed his erratic side when five-putting the 10th at The Players last month. But he insisted then he would not change his style.
Norman, who has won two Opens but finished runner-up eight times in Majors, including three times here, yesterday backed Mickelson to keep firing at the flag.
Norman, now 47, said: "I hope he never changes. Phil Mickelson's nature is Phil Mickelson's nature. People like to see that.
"I probably would have won more tournaments if I wasn't that way but I would not be the same guy. I enjoy being the person I am because of who I am. And Phil is the same way.
"The risk reward is there and when it happens he's great and when it doesn't happen, he looks terrible. Arnold Palmer won eight or nine Majors but he probably could have won 20 if he wasn't so aggressive.
"But Arnold was Arnold.
"So I hope Phil doesn't change. He's going to win his share of tournaments and he's going to lose his share of tournaments and that's it."
Florida-based Norman, only here by invitation, had the reward of his two Opens for his dicey strategy.
But he is also one of only two men to lose in a play-off for all four Majors.
Perhaps he will be best remembered for his 1996 collapse here when he started the day six shots clear but his last-round 78 gave the title to Nick Faldo.
Mickelson appears to have the same self-destruct button and the same unshake-able belief in his abilities. Or arrogance, depending on your point of view.
He sums up all the contradictions of the USA - brash, loud and entertaining but lacking intelligence, subtlety and worldliness.
Mickelson's game is honed to the target golf of the American PGA Tour.
If he misses the green, his trusty L-wedge will flop the ball on to the putting surface from the rough.
It is not a style suited to our links golf, where he has made the top 20 only once in nine attempts at the Open. But love him or loathe him, you can't ignore the blue-eyed all-American boy.
He is now the second biggest draw in world golf. His challenge is to be first. He claimed he did not care about winning a Major, although Tiger's coach Butch Harmon noted: "I think he would find winning Majors was fun."
And so will he finally win one here in Augusta? Six times in the last seven years he has been in contention only to fall off the pace and finish in the top 12. …

For many years the educational outcomes from schooling for girls have concerned feminists, educationalists and some members of the community. Although in Australia girls have an equivalent participation rate in secondary education to boys, the quality of their schooling compared to boys' has come under question. In many schools girls' participation is different from boys. For example, 'technical drawing, computing, maths and physical sciences are male dominated at high school level' (Meeting Young Women's Needs, 1984, p. 23). This means that young women emerge from school with their options for employment already limited by the content of their school courses. Young women also have a lower participation rate in post-school training, further limiting their options for employment.
Occupational segregation in Australia reflects these differences in the form of gender divisions. In 1984, 64 per cent of female employees were concentrated in three major occupational groupings (clerical, sales and service), characterized by low pay, low status and few possibilities for career opportunities (Sawer, 1985, p. xiv). As this pattern of occupational segmentation continued into the late 1980s, many sought to alter the pattern by intervening in schooling practices. The processes that lead to differential outcomes from schooling have come under scrutiny, in particular, discrimination against girls.
Over the last decade the complexities of the situation have become more apparent. Early assumptions about objectives and strategies for change have been undermined by the persistence of occupational segregation (O'Donnell, 1984) and the apparent determination of many girls and women to place a continuing priority on relationships and domestic concerns (Connell et al., 1982, Wilson and Wyn, 1987). What has emerged is a picture of the ways in which class, gender, race and ethnicity interrelate in shaping the educational and social outcomes of girls and

About J.D. Power Ratings
Power Circle Ratings from J.D. Power are one of the only sources of consumer ratings based on independent and unbiased feedback from a representative sample of verified product and service owners.
To calculate Power Circle Ratings, J.D. Power begins with the syndicated study index scores or a specific standard of measurement, which can be found in the associated press release. An example of an index score is found in the J.D. Power U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study, where vehicles are ranked according to overall index scores based upon weighted responses to several study factors. An example of a specific standard of measurement is found in the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, where vehicles are ranked according to reported Problems Per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Using these measurements, Power Circle Ratings are calculated based on the range between the company or model with the highest score and the company or model with the lowest score. J.D. Power generates a Power Circle Rating of five, four, three, or two, as outlined below:
Note: If there is insufficient data to calculate a Power Circle rating, a dash (—) is used in the place of a rating.
*Power Circle Ratings may not include all information used to determine J.D. Power awards.

Yon's Group
The 26 years of experience in the current business returns Yon about 19,000 KHR per day. This is her seventh cycle with VisionFund. She has succeeded in repaying back her past loan, which has better supported her to sustain her living.
For this cycle, Yon formed a group of three to seek a new loan with VisionFund. As the group leader, she will use her loan portion to lease an additional plot of farmland to expand her cash-crop growing. She hopes to receive a triple yield from her business and make a good profit for her children's education.
Additional Information
About VisionFund CambodiaVisionFund Cambodia is a Christian organization and microfinance institution that provides small loans and other financial services to improve the lives of children, empower poor women and their families, and grow successful businesses. The organization works primarily in rural parts of Cambodia and has distinguished itself by targeting the very poor who require smaller loan sizes, regardless of religious beliefs, gender or ethnic background.
Kiva lenders' funds will help the organization to expand into the northeastern provinces of the country, which have historically been underserved and difficult to reach with financial services.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Due to a slightly new career change, I am going to stay without traveling for a little while, so I am considering letting my Brompton go. Since I have been out of the loop for a long while (I know, nobody missed me), I was wondering, how much are S6 Bromptons going for? Mine is Raw Lacquer by the way.

Today's spoilers include clips from the next episodes of castaway drama Lost and time-travel adventure Doctor Who. And another early review of M. Night Shyamalan's apocalyptic movie The Happening gives away most of its plot twists — but they don't sound that twisty in any case. We have the first promo image from J.J. Abrams' FBI show Fringe, and a picture of Hiro's new enemy on super-mutants show Heroes. Plus there's the secret ending of tonight's episode of young-Superman show Smallville, and some minor spoilers for Chuck, Kyle XY and Stargate: Atlantis. Spoilers are our life's blood, so drink up!
The Happening:
Another bad early review of M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening has gone up online. It's "The Birds without any birds." A neuro-toxin is released without any warning around the Northeastern U.S., and it causes people to murder themselves in terrible ways. Early on, we see a cellphone video of a guy walking into a lion cage without any awareness of what he's doing. And a row of people shoot themselves, and when each person drops the gun, the next person picks it up and uses it.
Mark Wahlberg is a passive-aggressive high-school teacher who's on the outs with his wife, Zooey Deschanel. They flee together, along with a few other people (plus the daughter of a fellow teacher) and they try to figure out what's happened. There are some War Of The Worlds-style fleeing sequences, including a barn with a trigger-happy farmer. And then it turns out the plants are releasing the neuro-toxin to get rid of the pesky humanity. Shyamalan attempts to "cut to a menacing-looking tree." And then they find a nice old lady whose house was built for hiding slaves — which turns out to come in handy. And instead of the trademark Shyamalan twist ending, the film has no ending at all. It just stops. Oh, and here are some images I don't think we've shown before. [Collider]
Here's the first promotional still from Fringe, J.J. Abrams' show that's really not an X-Files rip off. This must be from the scene where Anna Torv puts on a bikini to go inside the mind of her comatose boyfriend John. [New York Times]
On tonight's Smallville, Lex tells Clark he loved him (like a brother). And then they have their big showdown, and a buttload of stuff falls on top of Lex. The show ends with a big cliffhanger: is Lex alive or dead? [Serrico]
Stargate: Atlantis:
In season five of Stargate: Atlantis, Teyla keeps the baby. [Friendshipper]
Doctor Who:
Chuck's producers are looking for a major star to play a retired secret agent who gets called out of retirement to tutor Chuck. [Chuck TV]
Here's a first look at Daphne, the speedster who confounds Hiro in the new season of Heroes. [Heroes TV Show Spoilers]
Kyle XY:
In the Kyle XY third season premiere, Kyle will meet face to face with the scientists of Latnok at last. He'll mostly interact with one of them, Daniel Cassidy. Kyle insists he'll never work for Latnok, but Cassidy is sure Kyle will eventually come back to the people who created him. [TV Squad]

Should we measure blood cholesterol levels in all adults, or only in those at high risk of coronary heart disease (CHD)? Most men under the age of 35 years and women under the age of 45 years—roughly half the adult population—are at very low short-term risk of CHD. One consequence is that drug treatment to lower high blood cholesterol levels in the average young adult is an extremely expensive means of prolonging life; the estimated $1 million to $10 million per year of life is 100 to 1000 times the cost of other approaches. Individualized dietary treatment is somewhat cheaper but relatively ineffective. Another consequence of the low CHD risk in young adults is the greater likelihood that intervention may have harmful effects that outweigh the benefits. Meta-analyses of primary prevention trials in middle-aged men reveal an increase in non-CHD deaths among those randomized to cholesterol interventions, an unexpected finding that is more substantial than the decrease in CHD deaths. This raises the possibility that one or more of the cholesterol interventions could have very serious adverse effects among young adults, whose risk of non-CHD death is normally 100 times their risk of CHD death. We conclude that the policy of screening and treating high blood cholesterol levels in young adults is neither cost-effective, nor does it satisfy ethical standards requiring strong evidence that preventive interventions do more good than harm. Fortunately, cholesterol screening in young adults is also not necessary: most CHD events associated with high blood cholesterol levels in this population will not occur for decades and can be prevented by treatment that is begun in middle age. Cholesterol screening and treatment in young adults should be limited to individuals with known coronary disease or other unusual factors that place them at high short-term risk of CHD death.

Since the 1980s, Islamic scholars and medical experts have used the tools of Islamic law to formulate ethico-legal opinions on brain death. These assessments have varied in their determinations and remain controversial. Some juridical councils such as the Organization of Islamic Conferences' Islamic Fiqh Academy (OIC-IFA) equate brain death with cardiopulmonary death, while others such as the Islamic Organization of Medical Sciences (IOMS) analogize brain death to an intermediate state between life and death. Still other councils have repudiated the notion entirely. Similarly, the ethico-legal assessments are not uniform in their acceptance of brain-stem or whole-brain criteria for death, and consequently their conceptualizations of, brain death.
Within the medical literature, and in the statements of Muslim medical professional societies, brain death has been viewed as sanctioned by Islamic law with experts citing the aforementioned rulings. Furthermore, health policies around organ transplantation and end-of-life care within the Muslim world have been crafted with consideration of these representative religious determinations made by transnational, legally-inclusive, and multidisciplinary councils.
The determinations of these councils also have bearing upon Muslim clinicians and patients who encounter the challenges of brain death at the bedside. For those searching for 'Islamically-sanctioned' responses that can inform their practice, both the OIC-IFA and IOMS verdicts have palpable gaps in their assessments and remain clinically ambiguous. In this paper we analyze these verdicts from the perspective of applied Islamic bioethics and raise several questions that, if answered by future juridical councils, will better meet the needs of clinicians and bioethicists.

Hi, we are having problems with our 2006 civic hybrid. At times when you need to accelerate the car just will not. You might expect this with a hybrid, not much power, but this is a relatively new problem-the last year or so, and Honda is not willing to help us. We really feel that the car is unsafe to drive. Thanks for your help in finding an unbiased person to give us an idea of what they think the problem might be.

USDA Farm Service Agency Microloan Program
Microloans up to $35,000 aim to assist small farmers, veterans, and disadvantages producers
News Release
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15, 2013 — Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today announced a new microloan program from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) designed to help small and family operations, beginning and socially disadvantaged farmers secure loans under $35,000. The new microloan program is aimed at bolstering the progress of producers through their start-up years by providing needed resources and helping to increase equity so that farmers may eventually graduate to commercial credit and expand their operations. The microloan program will also provide a less burdensome, more simplified application process in comparison to traditional farm loans.
"I have met several small and beginning farmers, returning veterans and disadvantaged producers interested in careers in farming who too often must rely on credit cards or personal loans with high interest rates to finance their start-up operations," said Vilsack. "By further expanding access to credit to those just starting to put down roots in farming, USDA continues to help grow a new generation of farmers, while ensuring the strength of an American agriculture sector that drives our economy, creates jobs, and provides the most secure and affordable food supply in the world."
The new microloans, said Vilsack, represent how USDA continues to make year-over-year gains in expanding credit opportunities for minority, socially-disadvantaged and young and beginning farmers and ranchers across the United States. The final rule establishing the microloan program will be published in the Jan. 17 issue of the Federal Register.

It does not matter how good the Medicaid program is in Utah if there is little access. It is almost impossible to get coverage if you happen to be poor out of work and male. Utah should expand its medicaid coverge as provided for by the AHA, just like Arizona has done and for the same reasons.

JOHANNESBURG — Oscar Pistorius, the double-amputee Olympic runner who fatally shot his girlfriend in 2013, was released from prison and placed under house arrest on Monday night, a South African official said.
"Oscar Pistorius was placed under correctional supervision tonight," Manelisi Wolela, a spokesman for South Africa's correctional services department, said in a cellphone text message sent to journalists.
JOHANNESBURG — It is, for some well-heeled foreign visitors, the ultimate African experience: the thrill of hunting a lion, one of the "Big Five" animals whose habitats are under increasing pressure from human encroachment. Now an American dentist's killing of a celebrity lion in Zimbabwe has triggered global revulsion, highlighting what critics say is an industry of trophy hunting that threatens vulnerable species across sub-Saharan Africa.
JOHANNESBURG — The rhino's rescuers gave her a name: Hope.
Poachers in South Africa had darted the rhino with a tranquilizer and hacked off her horns while she was sedated, leaving the animal with a horrific wound covering much of her face. A couple of days later, staff on a wildlife reserve found the grievously injured rhino — alive.
NAIROBI, Kenya — There was sobbing and silent grief. Some boiled with bitterness, while others found solace in memories of the dead. One mother considered suicide until counselors talked her out of it.
The raw emotions were on display this week at a Nairobi morgue as relatives viewed the bodies of their loved ones killed April 2 in an attack at Garissa University College by Islamic militants.
JOHANNESBURG — As Islamic militants from Boko Haram step up attacks in Nigeria that have led to the slaughter of more civilians, there is increasing talk that international military action, possibly including a multinational force, may be needed to help crush the insurgency in Africa's most populous country.
The debate has taken on new urgency since Jan. 3, when Boko Haram extremists swept into the northeastern town of Baga in Borno state, overran a military base and, according to witnesses, killed hundreds of civilians in the days that followed.
PRETORIA, South Africa — An expert witness for the defense at the murder trial of Oscar Pistorius was supposed to help the athlete's assertion that he killed his girlfriend by mistake last year, but he ended his testimony on Thursday amid blistering attacks on his credibility by a prosecutor who accused him of slipshod analysis and fuzzy explanations.
PRETORIA, South Africa — For five days, Oscar Pistorius endured a withering cross-examination at his murder trial from a prosecutor who pounced on apparent inconsistencies in his testimony. Yet, legal analysts said Tuesday, expert witnesses who will testify for the defense could undermine the prosecution's efforts to prove Pistorius killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on purpose after an argument.
PRETORIA, South Africa — Oscar Pistorius came under intense pressure Monday at his murder trial from the chief prosecutor, who dismissed his account of how he killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp as a flimsy web of lies and accused the Olympian of staging emotional outbursts to mask difficulty in answering a barrage of probing questions.
His voice quavering at times, Pistorius struggled to explain alleged inconsistencies in his testimony and broke down sobbing on two occasions, forcing Judge Thokozile Masipa to temporarily halt proceedings.
PRETORIA, South Africa — His voice shaking, Oscar Pistorius took the witness stand Monday for the first time, testifying that he was trying to protect the girlfriend he killed and that he became so tormented by memories of the fatal shooting and panic attacks that he once hid helplessly in a closet.
PRETORIA, South Africa — Standing with his arms straight out in front of him and gripping an imaginary pistol in court, a South African police ballistics expert showed Tuesday how he estimated the trajectory of the four bullets Oscar Pistorius fired through a toilet door while standing on his stumps to kill his girlfriend.
Capt. Christiaan Mangena said Pistorius shot at a slightly downward angle into the cubicle where Reeva Steenkamp was, with the bullet holes around 3 feet high in the wood door. Pistorius was about 7 feet away from the door when he shot, Mangena said.
JOHANNESBURG — One of Nelson Mandela's closest confidants is still challenging the powers that be, with plenty of guidance from his ancestors, the ancient Greeks.
"Power, even in advanced democracies, is abused. It's part of life," said George Bizos, a Greek-born lawyer who defended Mandela at the 1960s trial in which the anti-apartheid leader was sentenced to life in prison.

Gov. John Kasich's food stamp policy again bypasses Ohio's urban areas in favor of rural counties
Nick Swartsell
0 Comments · Wednesday, November 4, 2015
Seteria Carter has been battling cancer for four years. She is one of more than 125,000 people in Hamilton County who receive SNAP benefits. But there are others in the county — and in urban areas across the state — who need them and don't get them.

Morning News and Stuff
Council passes tax deals; big announcement on Music Hall; this coffee has a little something extra
Hey y'all. Here's a brief rundown of the news this morning before I have to fly out the door to cover a few things. • City Council yesterday voted to approve a number of property tax-related items we've already reported on. But here are the cliff notes. Among the bigger ones was a controversial move to create two tax increment financing districts around properties owned by Evanston-based developer Neyer. The group has said it will be making big improvements to the area and asked the city to create the TIF districts to fund infrastructure improvements in the districts. Some critics have called this a tax abatement, but in reality, Neyer will stay pay taxes — they'll just end up in a fund earmarked for public works projects around their buildings instead of flowing into the general fund, where they could be used for police, transit, etc. Council also passed an amendment at the request of Councilwoman Yvette Simpson requiring council approval of all expenditures from the fund. Councilman Chris Seelbach voted against the TIF districts.• City Council also unanimously passed a 15-year tax abatement for a project in Clifton Heights by Gilbane Development Co. that will bring 180 units of student housing to the neighborhood. The abatement, which could be worth up to $12 million, is for the building's proposed environmentally-friendly Silver LEED certification. Council voted unanimously for the tax break. This project was also controversial, as a number of residents in Clifton Heights say such developments are changing the character of the neighborhood.• Believe in Cincinnati, the grassroots group responsible for pushing the streetcar forward last winter, is holding a rally today to launch an effort pushing council to make plans for the streetcar's extension into uptown. City administration so far has no plans for such a study until the first phase of the project is complete and can be evaluated. Believe in Cincinnati would like to see the next phase planned soon so that the project can apply for grants and find other funding.The rally will be at 10 a.m. at the intersection of Race and Elder streets near Findlay Market. "Why shouldn't we get those scarce federal dollars for transit instead of another city? If we don't have a plan, we won't be considered," said the group's leader Ryan Messer to the Cincinnati Business Courier.• Meanwhile, just a few blocks away, Mayor John Cranley will hold a news conference at Music Hall, where he's likely to announce that the landmark has won an Ohio historic tax credit worth millions. Representatives from the State Historic Preservation Office and the Ohio Development Services Office will also speak at the press conference, along with state Sen. Bill Seitz. The grant is worth up to $25 million. Music Hall has been competing with Cleveland's Huntington Building and May Co. department store and the former Goodyear Tire Co. headquarters in Akron. The historic hall, which is home to the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and a number of other cultural institutions, needs $123 million in renovations. Funding efforts so far are still $40 million short. The state tax credit could go a long way toward filling that gap.UPDATE: Music Hall will get the full $25 million tax credit.• The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio is investigating a grant program for public schools recently put forward by Gov. John Kasich. The Community Connections mentorship program conditions receipt of the grant on public schools' collaboration with religious institutions, something the ACLU says may be violate separation of church and state under the constitution. The group is investigating the program further. "The First Amendment of the Constitution provides very strong protection against the government imposing religion upon children in public schools," said Heather Weaver of the ACLU Program on Religious Freedom and Belief in a news release. "This new program appears to disregard those protections and injects religion into our classrooms."• Continually low wages and changes to federal food assistance programs have been a one-two punch for low-income families in Ohio, a new study finds. The combination of stagnant pay and cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program enacted last year mean that Ohioans lost access to the equivalent of 195 million meals since November of last year, according to research by the Ohio Association of Foodbanks, which provides food assistance across the state. The study showed that 50 percent of households receiving food assistance have at least one member who is employed; it also showed that many of those recipients are underemployed and received no boost in wages from the year prior. Tied to the $265 million cut to the SNAP program Congress enacted last year, that's left many families worse off than they have been before. The cuts have other repercussions as well, according to the group."Our network and the people we serve can't afford to absorb any more spending tradeoffs, reductions, or harmful policy changes," said OAF Executive Director Lisa Hamler-Fugitt. "The loss of $265 million in entirely federally-funded SNAP benefits has already had an astronomical economic impact. Every $5 in federal expenditures of SNAP benefits generates $9 in local spending, so this loss of SNAP benefits has not only impacted the food budgets of low-income families — it has also led to an estimated $477 million in lost revenue for grocers and retailers and lost economic growth."• If you need a way to boost productivity around the office, well, this is one way to get that done. Or it might just start a ton of fights and paranoid ramblings. Actually, maybe just steer clear of this "enhanced" coffee shipped to Germany recently.

3CDC calls for development proposals, Ark park draws controversy and Kasich declines food stamp work waivers for most Ohio counties
Heya. It's news time.Got a few hundred thousand dollars sitting around? Want to be part of the gentrification renaissance in Over-the-Rhine? Step up and make your pitch to 3CDC! The development corporation has announced it will open up the 33 city-owned properties for which it is the preferred developer to other developers who want to get in on the action in OTR. 3CDC will then make recommendations to the city on which plans for the properties around Findlay Market get the green light, based on financial feasibility, timeliness of renovation, parking considerations and whether hotdogs, tacos and pizza served at your proposed upscale but casual eatery are artisanal enough. Proponents of the process say it's far more open than 3CDC's development strategies thus far, while opponents of the development group's preferred developer status say 3CDC still has too much power calling the shots in the neighborhood. • As the streetcar gets closer to a reality in downtown and OTR, Northern Kentucky is now looking at how it can get on board. City leaders in Newport and Covington are talking about ways those cities can link up with Cincinnati's streetcar. Covington Mayor Sherry Carran and Newport City Commissioner Beth Fennell have expressed support for the idea, saying the transit system could alleviate traffic problems and boost economic development there.• While we're talking Northern Kentucky, let's talk about the Noah's Ark theme park, called The Ark Encounter, being built in Grant County. The project has come under fire from Americans for the Separation of Church and State, a national advocacy group, because it has applied for tax credits despite possibly discriminatory hiring practices. Americans for Separation of Church and State points out that the park's parent organization, Answers in Genesis, requires job applicants to sign a "statement of faith" that pledges allegiance to the group's Christian values, including opposition to homosexuality and a belief in the literal truth of the bible. Americans for Separation of Church and state says that amounts to discriminatory hiring and should make the Ark project ineligible for the $73 million in tax incentives the state has approved for the project. Officials with The Ark Encounter say the park's employment policies have yet to be written and that they will comply with all state and federal laws. • Butler County Children Services employees have been on strike for the past week, fighting for a 3.5 percent pay increase each year for the next three years. The county is standing firm, however, and things have started getting acrimonious. The county claims union representatives for the Child Services workers have misrepresented work done by the county since the strike has happened by claiming that some 80 home visits have been missed in that time. Union officials deny any misrepresentation. They say they've been forced to strike by the county's refusal to meet their demands and that work isn't getting done. The county has hired a number of new personnel since the strike and say they're handling the workload without the striking union members.• Gov. John Kasich signaled last week that he will again turn down job-requirement waivers for food aid in all but 17 counties in the state. Last year, the governor's office allowed just 16 counties to get the waivers, which the federal government issues in high-unemployment areas to exempt those seeking food stamps from work requirements. Without the waiver, food aid recipients are limited to three months of benefits before they must find a job or enter a state-funded work program. But both jobs and spots in these work programs have been difficult to find, leading to criticism of Kasich's decision to turn down the waiver in most of Ohio's counties from groups like the Ohio Association of Foodbanks and liberal think tanks like Ohio Policy Matters. Advocacy groups have filed a federal civil rights claim seeking to overturn the state's decision and extend the waiver to all 88 Ohio counties.• In national news, the funeral for Mike Brown, the 18-year-old shot and killed by police in Ferguson, Missouri, was held today. Brown's family has asked protesters who have taken to the streets in the wake of his Aug. 9 shooting for a peaceful event. Ferguson has been on edge since the shooting, with everything from peaceful demonstrations to all-out rioting taking place. Civil rights attorney Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson and the parents of Florida shooting victim Trayvon Martin all attended the memorial.

Court ruling means Pope, bishops might testify in abuse cases

Two weeks ago, when the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from the Vatican, plaintiffs claiming to be sexually abused at the hands of priests and betrayed by the church's effort to keep those crimes quiet earned their biggest court victory to date. In fact, after decades of losses, it felt like the victims' first real win, says Judy Jones, the Midwest associate director of the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests (SNAP).
