Tax Equality: Eliminating the Low Effective Marginal Tax Rates for Private Equity Professionals
Satyanarayana, Shrilaxmi S., St. John's Law Review
The issue of income classification - ordinary income versus capital gains income - has received considerable media scrutiny in the past eighteen months with respect to private equity funds,1 as large private equity firms have gone public, and information about their management structures and compensation practices have been subject to disclosure.2 Private equity funds are partnerships that invest in companies and/or entire business units, manage them, and then sell them off at a profit.3 The investments in the companies and/or business units generally qualify as capital assets.4 Private equity firms typically retain ownership of their equity stakes for several years.5 Given that the minimum holding period for the sale of a capital asset to qualify for long-term capital gains treatment is one year, the profit received on disposal of these private equity investments therefore takes the form of a long-term capital gain and is subject to lower tax rates than the sales of capital assets that are held for one year or less.6
The general partners of the private equity fund make the investment decisions regarding the companies in which the fund is invested, while the limited partners provide investment capital.7 For their investment decisions, the general partners are compensated in two ways: First, they receive two percent of the assets under management annually as a management fee, on which they are taxed at ordinary income tax rates, and second, they receive 20 percent of the fund's profits, the "carried interest,"8 for which they are often taxed at the lower capital gains rate. The capital gains rate on the 20 percent profit share is permissible under current Internal Revenue Code ("I.R.C.") rules because the partnership itself receives the profits in the form of capital gains, and through pass-through principles, it retains that character when it flows through to the individual partners.9 Given that private equity professionals receive significant remuneration via the carried interest,10 and are taxed at the lower capital gains rate, Congress, in contemplation of legislation subjecting carried interests to the higher ordinary income marginal tax rate, held hearings during the late summer and early fall of 2007 to understand the economics of these arrangements and to understand the arguments both in favor of and against the current tax treatment.11
Private equity professionals assert that their investments are "integral to capital formation and liquidity in this country"12 and contend that imposing a higher marginal tax rate would result in the "sky . . . fallfing] and . . . private equity ... shrivel [ing] up and d[ying]."13 According to these professionals, the imposition of higher marginal tax rates would result in fewer deals getting funded in the United States, hampering the United States' economy.14 In addition, they contend that the current tax treatment is appropriate for encouraging risk taking with respect to funding companies that have difficulty raising capital from traditional sources.15
In contrast, proponents of change to the current tax structure maintain that increasing the marginal tax rate is necessary to ensure equality and fairness.16 Individuals in other high paying professions, such as executives and lawyers, are subject to taxation at the ordinary income tax rate, whereas private equity managers are taxed at the long-term capital gains rate, because their income is structured in the form of carried interests.17 In addition, they claim that warnings of a precipitous drop in private equity funding as a result of proposed tax code changes are spurious, given that private equity managers do not bear risk to the same extent as do entrepreneurs,18 and that many investments tend to be made in a relatively narrow geographic area to facilitate monitoring.19
This Note will evaluate the arguments by both challengers and proponents to tax reform with respect to carried interests and propose two methods to bring about change in the tax treatment. …

"Unique city with the largest house in the USA!" Top 5 Page for this destination Asheville by matcrazy1
Asheville Travel Guide: 468 reviews and 1,138 photos
Among numerous cities and towns I visited during my Southern odyssey through 12 states Asheville (pop. 70,000) was the only city of medium size in which I spent more than 1 day. More, having no accommodation for the second night I had to drive to South Carolina to stay there. Despite it I decided to come back the next morning to continue my Asheville adventures. Why?
Well, most people come to Ashville to visit the Biltmore Estate which is a must, more than just the castle and worth the cost. But apart from that I was surprised to discover one of the most unique American cities I ever saw. Asheville offers some artisty flavour of both old and young Europe mixed with both typical southern town and modern American city. Its atmosphere is made by locals, their diversity and friendliness. Asheville seems to be a very friendly and nice place to live. Read my pros below and tips for more details.
More information:
Official Asheville, NC website
Asheville Convention & Visitors Bureau
Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce

- Pros:Unique, very friendly and mixed atmosphere, watching people (hippies, yuppies, punks...); art (Art Deco, music, painting etc.), antiquities, mountains around, good size, friendly locals again, surely Biltmore Estate
- Cons:NO VACANCY!
- In a nutshell:Discover still a bit hidden little pearl! Meet a friend!

Matt, thanks a lot for your interesting and informative page about Asheville! I always enjoy your travel pages written with a lot of inspiration!...
Nice one dude, thanks for sharing with us
Unfortunately, this restaurant is now closed. Wish it were open, as the one at this location now is the pits!
You have done an excellent presentation of Asheville-and I say you know the history far more than most locals. Great comments also.
We have thought about visiting The Biltmore Estate at Christmas, but have never done it. I'm sure it would be beautiful! Your page on Asheville was superb, Matt. Such attention to detail--I felt as though I was touring along with you...take care.
Biltmore Italian garden is still neglected in 2007 as you saw in 2004 as actually overall garden. Great tips on Biltmore. Thanks.
I'm glad you had more time to spend in Asheville than I did. It looks like you captured the hippie culture of downtown as well as the Biltmore Estate.
EXCELLENT page on Asheville, my home for four years, but you even showed me a couple of things I didn't know. Asheville is definitely one of my favorite American cities.
Root beer is wonderful!!! A rootbeer float which has ice cream in it is even better. Or you can order a brown cow which is a rootbeer float with chocolate ice cream. you must try it sometime!
So you fell in love with the southern hospitality here in Asheville? The Biltmore Estate is lovely. I enjoyed seeing all of your pictures.

Class Descriptions
*Tiny Tots Pre-Ballet/Creative Dance - This class is designed for ages 2-4 years. Students are introduced to the beginning ballet positions. This class focuses more on Creative Dance to keep the young dancer's attention. Creative dance involves using body actions to communicate an image (a flower blooming) or imaginary play (Cinderella at the stroke of mid-night). It allows them to have fun with dance and allows them to move freely. They also work on developing their motor skills and coordination, channeling their energy, and using their imaginations.
*Pre-Ballet/Creative Dance - This class is designed for ages 4-8 years. Students learn the basic ballet positions and technique. This class focuses more on Pre-ballet and the structure of a classical ballet class. Creative Dance is mixed in the last half of the class to keep the class fun and light for the young dancer. It allows them to have fun with dance, and allows them to move freely, while learning other styles of dance.
*Tap - This class is designed for ages 5-10 years. Students learn basic tap steps at the beginning of class and then work on a choreographed routine the later half of the class. A mini-recital is performed on the final day of the session and a big recital occurs in May.
*Hip Hop - This class is crazy fun for K - 5th grade. The kids are given a chance to express themselves, create their own moves, and learn choreography to popular music for a performance they will present at the end of the session. Classes are held Wednesdays at 3:00 and Thursdays at 1:20 & 2:15 at Sunset Hills Elementary. Next session starts in the fall and all classes will learn dances for the Halloween Carnival. Registration is open in Mid-August at Kidztyme.org.


text: The island of Palawan is nothing short of a dream. Here you're in one of the most untouched natural paradises you can reach without going on an expedition. Imagine water as clear as glass lapping onto bright white sandy beaches and towering stone cliffs leading to some of the most vibrant green forest you'll ever see. Between cave exploring, lounging in a hammock between two coconut trees, leaping off boats into bays filled with coral and fish, or scuba diving World War II shipwrecks, Palawan will be the trip of a lifetime. Start with one of our Palawan hotels and get ready to be amazed. Palawan is a long, thin island in the eastern Philippines. Travellers normally visit the north, which has spectacular sights, but the most adventurous will want to make their way to the south, which has untouched hillsides and beaches that give quiet a whole new meaning, but becomes harder to navigate the further south you go. Even Puerto Princesa, the provincial capital and part of the northern attractions, is a much more natural than any other city in the Philippines. Its streets are clean and lined with trees, and several beautiful nature preserves are within easy reach, including coral reefs, waterfalls and rock formations. But the most famous attraction is the Underground River, a 8.2 kilometre subterranean section of the Cabayugan River cool enough to make the New 7 Wonders of Nature list. You'll see why after a guided boat tour through caverns so big you can't see the ceilings, past multi-coloured and jagged rock formations, bats, and "the Cathedral" chamber where stones resemble Jesus and other religious figures. El Nido is the secluded, beautiful and fun northernmost area of Palawan. Here you can sip cheap beer and munch on local snacks along the roadside in between heart-pounding treks and mountain bike rides along the awe-inspiring terrain – Mount Taraw offers some of the best views. The beaches here are definitely not the best, but hop on a boat for a short trip to the sun-kissed bays of the Bacuit archipelago. A good place to take the step into the spectacular south is Narra, a peaceful town with superb beaches and wildlife. Rasa Island just offshore is the only place you can see the critically endangered Philippine Cockatoo in the wild, and if you are a diver, you may be lucky enough to see a green turtle gliding majestically through the clear blue waters as reefs burst with marine life below. Inland you'll find the Estrella Waterfalls, a nice place to swim in Palawan's clean fresh water for a change as the thick green forest provides shade from the sun and the waterfall splashes over rocks in the background. It's hard to learn about the intense natural splendour of Palawan and not want to jump on a plane right now. Tell you wot, we'll help you out with some fantastic rates on flights to the Philippines and your choice from our Palawan accommodation list. After that, this gem of a destination is yours for the taking. Image credit IRRI Images under Creative CommonsHide

Contesting Archives
Finding Women in the Sources
Awards and Recognition:
Received the Barbara "Penny" Kanner Prize from the Western Association of Women Historians, 2011.
Reconstructing the lives of women lost to historical record
The contributors of Contesting Archives challenge the assumption that an archive is a neutral, immutable, and a historical repository of information. Instead, these historians view it as a place where decisions are made about whose documents--and therefore whose history--is important. Finding that women's voices and their texts were often obscured or lost altogether, they have developed many new methodologies for creating unique archives and uncovering more evidence by reading documents "against the grain," weaving together many layers of information to reveal complexities and working collectively to reconstruct the lives of women in the past.
Global in scope, this volume demonstrates innovative research on diverse women from the sixteenth century to the present in Spain, Mexico, Tunisia, India, Iran, Poland, Mozambique, and the United States. Addressing gender, race, class, nationalism, transnationalism, and migration, these essays' subjects include indigenous women of colonial Mexico, Muslim slave women, African American women of the early twentieth century, Bengali women activists of pre-independence India, wives and daughters of Qajar rulers in Iran, women industrial workers in communist Poland and socialist Mozambique, and women club owners in modern Las Vegas. A foreword by Antoinette Burton adroitly synthesizes the disparate themes woven throughout the book.
Contributors are Janet Afary, Maryam Ameli-Rezaei, Antoinette Burton, Nupur Chaudhuri, Julia Clancy-Smith, Mansoureh Ettehadieh (Nezam Mafi), Malgorzata Fidelis, Joanne L. Goodwin, Kali Nicole Gross, Daniel S. Haworth, Sherry J. Katz, Elham Malekzadeh, Mary Elizabeth Perry, Kathleen Sheldon, Lisa Sousa, and Ula Y. Taylor.
"A compelling exploration of topics in women's and gender history across several continents and through several centuries."--The American Archivist
"A pleasure to read. . . . A terrific primer on how to research the seemingly invisible and silent."--Pacific Historical Review."--
"Contesting Archives makes vivid and concrete the way historians must proceed when faced with partial or contradictory sources. Historians and anyone interested in how historians work will appreciate the authors' strategies for, and cautions about, unearthing information about women from documents inside and outside the archive."--Margaret Strobel, coeditor of Expanding the Borders of Women's History

House Eyes No Bail for Poor Litigants
The House of Representatives has passed on third and final reading the proposed Poor Litigants Equalization Act of 2008 which seeks to grant poor litigants exemption from posting bail if charged with non-capital offenses for the first time.
Considered as one of the most significant justice reform legislations to pass the Lower House during the 14th Congress, House Bill 5523 was unanimously approved after a successful floor defense by Quezon City Rep. Matias Defensor, chairman of the House Committee on Justice.
Defensor said the measure would benefit detained persons facing criminal charges for the first time but are practically denied temporary freedom because they could not afford bail cost.
The veteran lawmaker said a litigant who may apply for bail exemption should fall under the category of poor as if his income falls below the poverty threshold as defined by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) and if he cannot afford, in a sustained manner, to provide for his and his family's minimum basic needs of food, health, education, clothing, housing, and other essential necessities. …

Yum, 50minutes!
I'll watch it now :P
Edit: The best thing about Morpheus I think is how standardised the hardware will be and with this kit everyone gets the same experience globally. Say somone wants to create virtual tourism all you need is a PS4 + Camera + Move x2 + Morpheus.
Also imagine in the future the wizards at SONY making a smaller PS4, it only makes this a more attractive option.
For some reason I can't picture an equally seamless experience on PC, sure you get graphics sliders for performance but you will be missing out on a standardised experience and as we all know Windows is complete junk when it comes to breaking immersion in a game or even watching a movie.

Yea I still remember Virtual Boy, thinking VR was in the near future back then lol.
My only reservation towards the technology is 1st vs 3rd person view. VR feels like a match made in heaven for 1st person view games. I personally prefer 3rd person view gaming and am not entirely certain on how well it would translate in VR
03-27-2014 #10
I don't remember who it was, but I like the way a commenter put the third person thing... "It's like playing with toys that are alive"
There is no problem with third person view. Even in story heavy FP games, I like what they said on the video. You are taken out of your character and become an observer, and you can still look around and such. The VR experience does not require you be an active participant in everything that's happening, but rather just that you BE there.Sig pic by Irish-Sid.

It was a good presentation. The problem is I dont have the slightest idea when they plan on releasing it?
End of 2014? 2015? 2016?
hen they talk about it they make it seem like its far away from being released. I dont wanna wait a few years for them to perfect it.
I want it now!

By: Karl H. Pribram
As did Appalachian I, Appalachian II resolved, for me, certain hitherto intractable problems that plague the mind/brain relationship. In Appalachian I, the problem was: how can psychological processes reflect brain activity? Psychological processes such as language seem to be organized so differently from the recorded activity of the neurons and neural systems known to be critically involved. The answer came in the form of an identity at the subneuronal, synaptodendritic and cytoskeletal level. At that level, descriptions of the organization of the elementary neural process and descriptions of the organization of the elementary psychological process are identical: assuming that the brain is an information processing organ, the description of the organization of synaptodendritic cortical receptive fields is identical with the description of the organization of information processing in communication devices such as those that process language--e.g. telephony, and those that process images--e.g., tomography and television.
Appalachian II addressed a problem that emerges as a direct consequence of this identity. The form of the identity is symmetrical. The informational process is a two-way interaction: in a manner of speaking, the organization of the subneuronal process produces (causes) the organization of the elementary psychological process; but at the same time, this organization shapes (causes) the subneuronal process. The identity of organization, the information process involved, makes this way of speaking seem awkward and old fashioned, rooted in a pervasive Cartesian dualism. But it does call attention to the fact that identity implies symmetry.
Life and mind are not governed completely by the laws of symmetry. In fact, one might define an all important characteristic of life and mind is that symmetries become broken--especially time symmetry. In biology, birth, growth, procreation and death; in psychology, learning and memory, attention, intuition and thought are all time-symmetry breaking processes.
Prigogine's keynote addresses this issue and clarifies, for me, the "how" of time symmetry breaking. As I understand Prigogine's presentation (with help from Kunio Yasue and Mari Jibu), there are formulations in which spectral representations do not render both real and virtual "images" when Fourier transformed. Prigogine's discussion is restricted to certain quantum and/or classical systems driven by (non-self-adjoint) Hamiltonian operators (for quantum systems) and/or Liouville operators (for classical systems) which are "chosen" so that their time developments are kept contractive (i.e. loose information) and dissipative (i.e. loose energy). Thus, as Prigogine states in a letter to me in response to a question:
The difference between real and complex spectrum is very simple. Take the Hamiltonian in Hilbert space, it has real eigenvalues E1, E2...
Similarly the evolution operator U(t)=e-iHt has complex eigenvalues such as e-iE1t.

Anyone else notice how cars on side streets will often freak out when you approach an intersection when you have a red light or a stop sign- that they think you won't stop because you don't (can't) coast to the intersection? This generally happens in lower traffic areas- away from rush hour (when they'd sooner run me over than slow for a bike).
I'm beginning to believe it annoys some drivers- and I really don't need to be waved through an interesection when I don't have the right of way.

LYTHAM ST ANNES, England: British Open champion Ernie Els said he was inspired by watching South Africa's cricketers turn the screw on England in the first test before going out to win his fourth major title on Sunday.
South Africa batsman Hashim Amla made a record 311 not out to lift his side to 637 for two declared before the bowlers reduced England to 102 for four to put the touring side on course for victory at the Oval in London on Monday.
"Yeah, I was watching a bit," Els told reporters.
"I watched a bit last night and then obviously this morning a little bit. It seems like the guys are fresh and ready to play and hopefully they'll have a good series."
South Africa can knock England off the top of the world test rankings if they win the three-match series.
"There's still a long way to go, two more test matches, so there's a good start," said Els after shooting a final-round 68 at Lytham to snatch the Open title in dramatic fashion from Australian Adam Scott who bogeyed the last four holes.

I recently ran into the problem of how to insert my own Javascript into a DOM (DataObjectManager) popup window. After much googling and getting nowhere I resorted to reading the code and discovered that it was in fact quite simple to do.

TutorialsSorting on a related DataObject in ModelAdmin
2 August 2011 | | | Supports v2.4Tweet
Sometimes, in ModelAdmin, we want to be able to have a different default sort.
Specifically, like in cases where a has_one is the preferred sorting. For example, we have a warehouse. In our DataObjects, we have the object "Lanes", has_many Products. And we have Products, has_one "Lanes". When we're browsing our Products in the admin, we want to have them default sorted by their Lane, not their name.
Just saying default_sort = 'Lanes'; sadly does not do the job. It'll give you reddish-screens and stuff. Which is not what we like.
Here's a (quite simple actually) solution.Continue reading...

TutorialsAutofill MetaDescription and MetaKeywords on page save
28 July 2009 | | | Supports v2.4, v2.3Tweet
Most of my customers don't want to add meta info manually, so I add an onBeforeWrite() function to update the Meta Description field and count the keyword density of the content with a separate function and add these keywords to the Meta Keywords fields when a page is saved.
In my humble SEO opinion every page needs an unique Meta Description. Keywords seems to be less important for search engines, but why not add them automatically anyway! The function counts how many times each word exist in the Content, order the words by occurrence and glues the words to a comma separated string. In this function only words with more then 4 characters are counted, but you can adjust that if you like.Continue reading...

With the
leap now in place, there are new characters coming in one after the other in Nautanki Films popular show Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon on Colors.
The latest news is about Puneet Sachdev coming in the show. We also got to know as to how the story will be taken further from a very reliable source, "The story which is being planned is that RK's (Vivian Dsena) entire family will be wiped out in a major fire and only RK's mother played by Shama Deshpande and Drashti Dhami who will play RK's daughter will survive. While RK's mother will try hard to keep her away from the film industry but she will get attracted to the glitz and glamor and find her way to show business. RK's secretary Bittuji (Indresh Malik) too will be around to help the family tide over the crisis and will be the young aspirant's guide to filmdom."
"The fire will be carried out on the instructions of Puneet Sachdev who plays the upcoming producer Nikhil Lamba. This character has grown up the hard way and has struggled a lot to reach where he is today. He is shown to be a very young and ambitious guy who joins a film production firm as a business manager and impresses his boss so much that he ends up marrying his daughter. He is a survivor who is about to achieve his dream of becoming big in life when he feels that RK is going to spoil it all. Since he doesn't want anything to come between him and his success he decides to destroy RK completely. He is the person who will be behind the fire and ruining RK and Madhubala's life. Post the leap too Puneet will be around and will try to be a threat to RK - Madhubala's daughter."
We called Puneet who denied knowing anything about the upcoming story line but confirmed his entry and said, "Yes, I will be seen in Madhubala as the main negative lead in the show. I will be the villain... the ultimate bad guy."
Puneet has earlier done shows like Kasauti Zindagi ki, Bidaai and Bhabhi in which too he has played negative roles. He had earlier said that he was now interested in doing positive roles but the offer seemed to be tempting enough for him to accept, "I was hoping to do a positive role but then when they called me for this role and I cleared the look test too so I thought of it and decided to go ahead since it was an interesting role in an already popular show."
Way to go Puneet, all the best to you and the Madhubala team!

Is there a program for PC that does this? I figured I'd ask on the mac forum because PC folks (like me) might not be aware of this capability.
What I do now is have a separate folder for edited files.
What is the program that allows this?
Also, I am guessing, it only can edit JPEGS, (or can it edit RAW formats?)

New Collected Poems (Hardback)Stephen Spender, Michael Brett
Hardback Published: 06/05/2004
- Not in our warehouse
Click & Collect From your local shop
Stephen Spender, along with his friends W. H. Auden, Louis MacNeice and C. Day Lewis, rose to prominence in the 1930s, writing powerfully of the fear and paranoia of a continent heading towards war. By the time of his death in 1995 he had established a distinguished reputation as a poet, critic, editor and translator. This New Collected Poems, edited by Michael Brett, gathers seven decades of verse from Poems (1933) to Dolphins (1994) and the late uncollected work. Reordering the thematic principle of the 1985 Collected Poems, this edition returns to a book-by-book chronology and allows the reader to experience, for the first time, the full development and range of his career.

text: Heya, I'm about 3 years into being a "serious"-year round commuting cyclist. Currently I have a 2012 Specialized Sirrus Expert Disc. It's come a long way and after it's third winter (this past one super brutal), it's time for some major tuning up. Hope to learn lots and share what I learn. I typically take my bike to Duke's in Toronto, I think they're fantastic, and have great service, but for the amount of work that needs done. I need take on as much work as possible, otherwise I might as well buy a new bike!

NYC cases show crooked cops' abuse of FBI database
NEW YORK It's billed by the FBI as "the lifeline of law enforcement" - a federal database used to catch criminals, recover stolen property and even identify terrorism suspects.
But authorities say Edwin Vargas logged onto the restricted system and ran names for reasons that had nothing to do with his duties as a New York Police Department detective. Instead, he was accused in May of looking up personal information on two fellow officers without their knowledge.
The allegation against Vargas is one of a batch of corruption cases in recent years against NYPD officers accused of abusing the FBI-operated National Crime Information Center database to cyber snoop on co-workers, tip off drug dealers, stage robberies and - most notoriously - scheme to abduct and eat women.
The NCIC database serves 90,000 agencies and gets 9 million entries a day by users seeking information on stolen guns and cars, fugitives, sex offenders, orders of protection and other subjects, according to an FBI website. The NYPD system - called the "Finest," as in "New York's Finest" - also allows access to state criminal and Department of Motor Vehicles records.
How often the database is used for unauthorized purposes is unclear. The NYPD insists that officers are under strict orders to use it only during car stops, ongoing investigations or other police work. The department assigns them login names and passwords that allow supervisors to track their usage on desktop computers in station houses or on laptops in patrol cars.
NYPD recruits are warned that "if you misuse or you access information in an inappropriate manner ... you are in serious trouble - such as being prosecuted, being fired and also big fines," a police academy instructor testified at the trial of Gilbert Valle, who was convicted in March in a bizarre plot to kidnap, cook and cannibalize women.
In addition, an FBI compliance unit conducts spot audits to examine users' "policies, procedures, and security requirements," the FBI said in a statement. The FBI also requires each state to have its own audit programs and claims that "malicious misuse is not commonly discovered."
But both the instructor testifying at the Valle trial and an Internal Affairs Bureau investigator who took the witness stand in an earlier case have conceded that officers can easily circumvent safeguards.
The investigator testified as a government witness at the 2010 trial of an NYPD officer accused of using the database to conduct surveillance of a perfume warehouse in New Jersey before an armed robbery there. He told jurors that officers often do searches while logged in under another officer's name - either out of neglect or, in this case, intent.
"Unfortunately ... it's not unusual that it happens," the investigator said.
The instructor, when asked about an officer's ability to effectively log in anonymously, responded, "I know it occurs. I wouldn't say it's common, but I know it does occur."
At a trial where Valle was convicted in March, prosecutors alleged that the officer used the database - sometimes accessing it while riding in a patrol car with his supervising sergeant - to help compile dossiers on women that listed their birthdates, addresses, heights and weights. None of the women were harmed, but prosecutors alleged he went as far as to show up on one woman's block after striking an agreement to kidnap her for $5,000 for a New Jersey man who wanted to rape and kill her.
In another database abuse case last year, federal authorities charged NYPD patrolman Jose Tejada with being a member of a crew that posed as police officers while staging more than 100 robberies of drug traffickers that netted more than 250 kilograms of cocaine and $1 million in cash.

CHICAGO (AP) - There are few times a rookie quarterback looks good in comparison to Peyton Manning.
With only two dates remaining on the 2012 schedule for the NASCAR Whelen All-American Weekly Racing Series at the Stockton 99 Speedway, the action in last Saturday's program took on an added intensity. Not only were weekly bragging rights on the line, but teams in five divisions were battling for both the Tri-Holiday Classic Series and 2012 season championships.
So three college buddies and an Alaskan decide to play a round at the local golf course.
PARIS (AP) - It surely would be have been more useful for his sport if Tyler Hamilton hadn't waited until this week to tell us what he knows about doping in the Lance Armstrong era.
I always figured that writing an outdoor column had to be extremely easy. How hard can it be? You go fishing and then lie about it. Isn't that what all fishermen do anyway? Wrong. A couple nights ago, I kept wracking my brain, trying to get sufficiently inspired to write something worthy of you folks. Nothing seemed to work, not even wearing my fishing hat. Suddenly I had a brilliant idea! Instead of worrying about it, I'd go out in the fresh air and clear the cobwebs out of my mind by doing a little fishing.
Sometimes you put a foot down wrong and don't find out for a week or two that you actually dislocated a hip. That's how it's going to be if the NFL sticks with its plan to start the regular season with replacement referees - from mild annoyance to major pain to humongous regret. And all because the people in charge are too used to getting their way.
More often than not, hard work doesn't get rewarded.
Even though the racing season is coming to an end faster than a Kardashian marriage, there are still several events on tap at the local tracks in September.
As you may be aware, I have more than a passing interest in politics. Now you may be asking yourself "What's that have to do with fishing, hunting and other outdoor pursuits?" The answer is "Almost everything." Whether you want to legalize mountain lion hunting because there are too many lions and attacks on women and children are becoming common, or if you want more trout planted in your favorite stream, the answers you get are part of a political process.
It's funny how things have come full circle in my life.
The fish are rising, and they're close.
The IZOD IndyCar Series will have a new look and feel when it returns to the Sonoma Raceway this weekend for the GoPro Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma.
In the last few weeks, I have read news articles about a possible mountain lion sighting in the community of Mountain House, west of Tracy, about a moose whose antlers were caught in a backyard swing set in northern Utah, and about a Boy Scout leader who was attacked by a rabid beaver while swimming in New York State.
I received an email this week asking me to remind everyone to "take a kid fishing."

Over the years I have periodically reported on historic or collectors guns that have come up for auction.
Last week, I mentioned that I was going to be fishing for bass with a childhood friend.
Life is full of regrets.
Several years ago when I made the decision to fish for multiple species, I didn't realize it was going to be so difficult.
It took a little longer than I had originally planned, but I finally was able to fish Lake Pardee last weekend.
Last weekend a friend and I went fishing at Lake Amador.
April is the month that I get most excited about when thinking about going fishing.

I just installed a new 2006 Centaur bottom bracket on my Bianchi (68mm BB shell, 111mm spindle, English) to replace a Veloce AC-S. Even out of the box I noticed that the Centaur spindle had much more rotating resistance than the AC-S (which has about 2000mi on it). For example I could spin the bare AC-S spindle with my fingers and it would go for several rotations, whereas the Centaur would barely do one, though it does rotate smoothly.
But of more concern is that the resistance of the Centaur spindle goes way up after I tighten the non-drive-side cup to the recommended 70 n*m/50 ft*lb torque spec. As per the instructions I backed off the torque to around 30 ft*lb and secured the threads with blue loctite, but even at this torque level the spindle is significantly tighter than before. I finally settled at around 10 ft*lb which was a sort of uneasy compromise between tightness of the cup and tightness of the spindle.
So my question is, is this normal? I haven't ridden the bike yet, and I don't want to damage the BB bearings, so I wouldn't mind backing off the torque of the non-drive side cup even more. Could there be something wrong with my BB shell or the BB itself? Is it safe to ride the bike with such low torque on the non-drive side?

For Ben , his 2013 focus was to stay in GP. Make no doubt he will be a factory Suzuki rider in 2014. He may already have that contract in hand. Hey, he has to ride somewhere, and the Ducati is a proven pig, he does not need to have the best results. Stay in the top ten, and prepare for 2014 is his mission.

At least the early episodes are of Best Wishes. Those are the ones that I watched, and I'm disappointed that I just couldn't find the time to keep up with everything. From what I've heard, though, the anime is back up in quality, but I personally don't know that.
To answer the main question of the thread, I did stop watching the anime. Right around the Sinnoh arc, since the time it came on CN changed to when I was in work, and it would have just been too much to record the episodes and then watch them when I was so busy.
I'm going to attempt to rewatch the entire series again. I've been missing it, and it'll be interesting to see how the quality changes over time. As I said, I watched a few episodes of Best Wishes (in the original Japanese when it first came out) and it was pretty enjoyable again.
