Nothing to Lose but Their Power: The Workers' Party Has Become the Party of a Graduate Elite, and Its Cells Are Required to Ensure "Healthy" Company Development. Wang Chaohua Asks If Communism Can Survive Such Singular Contradictions
Wang, Chaohua, New Statesman (1996)
How long can the Communist Party of China retain its monopoly over a burgeoning market economy, without conceding to political reforms or initiating some kind of democratisation? The question is even more acute now than it was when China embarked on economic changes 25 years ago.
During the first round of economic reforms in the mid-1980s, the need for matching political change was publicly discussed. A 1987 provisional law allowed for village elections throughout the country; there was talk of separating party from government. Even after the bloody suppression of pro-democracy demonstrators in June 1989, the notion of political reform lingered.
After 1992, however, once the economy had really taken off, the party shifted its stance. Except for a couple of isolated experiments, village elections were not extended to township level. The 1987 provisional law was upgraded to the level of formal law, but little improvement was made to it. In particular, no mechanisms were included for redressing the innumerable cases of official fraud or coercion. Worse, after the central government handed over fiscal responsibilities in rural areas to local authorities, and then used the state monopoly of trade in food grains to finance urban development, rural administrations ran deep into debt. Consequently, the main function of village committees and their heads has been to extract money from poor peasants and migrant workers to finance township and county governments.
Deng Xiaoping's death in 1997, followed by Hong Kong's return to China, marked a new phase in the party's search for legitimacy. "Democracy" as an official political aspiration could not quite yet be discarded, but the party now insisted that the Chinese were too ill-educated to be able to exercise it properly. When the east Asian financial crisis struck, China fended off Hong Kong demands for broader political participation by hoisting a new banner of "government accountability", in the British colonial tradition. Then, as social unrest increased on the mainland during 2000, the party brought the "accountability" catchword there, too. The city of Shenzhen was the first to announce a new round of "political reform"--yet failed to grant its citizens any right to vote directly for the authorities governing them.
A "Potemkin city" or two was clearly not enough to restore party authority at large. Jiang Zemin, hand-picked by Deng to be his successor, formulated the theory of the "three representatives" that has since become the party's official definition of itself. According to this doctrine, the party "represents the most advanced forces of production, the most progressive culture, and the interests of the whole nation". Thus the authority of the party was legitimised over that of the government.
Nowadays, the whole idea of democracy is mocked. Western democracy is criticised for its hypocrisy, and non-western democracy for risking destructive populism, a disorder supposedly rampant in Taiwan and threatening stability in Hong Kong. In so far as it still mentions democracy at all, the Communist Party restricts it to "the work of selecting and appointing cadres" within its own ranks, with a few experiments in strictly controlled elections to party offices in selected cities.
The party is no longer defensive about the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and eastern Europe, which left it isolated in the early 1990s. Instead, it makes a virtue of it, claiming that by giving priority to social stability and material development, China has avoided the chaotic politics and economic dislocations of de-communisation.
Thus, in the 15 years since 1989, the Communist Party has gone full circle, from making compromises under the pressure of a worldwide wave of democratisation, back to rising proudly above that discourse, and reclaiming its absolute rule over both the national government and all levels of local government. …

No, not all the good Pinoy guys are married...yet. They're out there if you know where to find them or if you're lucky enough to run into them. To welcome the so-called wedding season, SPOT.ph lists 10 of the most eligible Pinoy bachelors.
Unique selling point: This "good-looking do-gooder" is a former commercial model. Born with half-Italian features and a smile fit for toothpaste commercials, he now spends most of his time doing philanthropic work. A Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology graduate, the 37-year old hunk is spearheading projects such as Design Against the Elements and Bottle School Run. He does this with the help of the My Shelter Foundation.
Pedigree details: Son of Italian-born art gallery owner Silvana Ancelloti-Diaz and sculptor Ramon Diaz. Illac is also the cousin of former actor and commercial model turned interior designer Robin da Roza, model Georgina Wilson, and model-actress Isabelle Daza. This means, of course, that he's the nephew of 1969 Miss Universe Gloria Diaz. (We just had to point that out.)
Where you might spot him: Head to the nearest public school or underprivileged area where he is sure to be hatching his newest project. You could also hang out at a coffee shop, where he might be meeting with volunteers.
Unique selling point: He's a guy who chose to be writer rather than join politics. This 33-year-old Atenista pursued postgraduate studies at Columbia University and later worked as a copy editor at the Montreal Gazette in Canada. Then, in 2008, his then-unpublished novel, Ilustrado, won the Grand Prize for the Novel in English at the 2008 Palanca Awards. In November of the same year, he won the Man Asian Literary Prize for Ilustrado as well.
Pedigree details: His dad Antonio Syjuco, Jr. used to be head of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority. He was recently proclaimed as the congressman of Iloilo's second district, taking over wife Judy Jalbuena-Syjuco, who occupied the same position for three terms.
Where you might spot him: He's now based in Montreal, Canada with his girlfriend Edith Werbel. He would probably be at book signings and literary events.

Hi, I'm going on this trip leaving 22 October, I would love to hear from anyone else who is on this trip, or who has done this trip before...
Hi Sarah, Im booked on this trip too. This is the 1st time I've done this kind of thing, very excited!
Hi Sarah
I'm 29 and live in South Wales, I've got lots of good walks on my doorstep so have started doing a bit of training! I've been travelling, but never done any thing as active as this or that is part of an organised group.
How about you have you done any training? I've started gettting some of the gear, got some boots. I guess your already kitted out if you've been trekking before. Is there anything you can recommend I need to get?
Hi Anna,
I'm 23 and from Surrey. I have been on a few treks before to America/Costa Rica & Panama, but this will be the first time with this company. It looks like a full itinerary though, so we will be kept active!! I am especially looking forward to the whitewater rafting for 2 days, it's so much fun!
It would be great to find out a bit more about yourself...
Have you started any training yet for the walks?
The previous treks I've been on have only involved a couple of hrs walk not a whole week like this one, so this will be new to me too. I already have the boots but that's about it. I've been looking at outdoor jackets we might need for this trip, but not sure how cold it will be out there. My training hasn't really started yet, I need to start going for walks!!
Hi Anna
How is your training going? I'm going to go on a long walk this weekend to start mine.
Have you started looking at kit for the trek yet? I'm not sure how cold/wet its going to be on the week long trek..
Hi ladies,
I'm going on this trip too! It's coming around quickly now so I should probably start preparing for it!!
How's the training coming along?

Sen. Chris Murphy has been attracting a lot of attention in Washington.
It started as early as the day he was sworn in by Vice President Joe Biden.
Murphy, posing for photographers with Biden for a family-inclusive recreation of the official swearing of the oath of office, was holding in his arms his 1-year-old son. And when Biden gave the raise-your-right-hand command, both Murphys, father and son, complied at the same time.
The charming pictures and video of the Murphys' joint oath-taking quickly made it around Washington and on to some political blogs.
It was an auspicious start.
But Murphy's surprising big stature for a freshman senator has its roots in the school shooting in his home state that triggered a national discussion on gun control.
Murphy has smartly captured a lot of the spotlight as the discussion moves toward new gun-control laws. It is hard to miss Connecticut's junior senator in the debate. I've caught him by chance more than once holding forth in network television interviews.
He was interviewed one night by Piers Morgan on CNN. I saw him on Fox News, too, saying how "Newtown has fundamentally changed things" in the country when it comes to perceptions about gun control.
Murphy has also been out front, not just in joining in the sponsorship of new gun control legislation, but in attacking the NRA.
In one direct broadside, Murphy called a press conference to broadcast the results of a study showing that the NRA has a poor record in helping candidates at election time.
"In the 2012 general election, the vast majority of U.S. Senate candidates who were backed by the NRA lost their elections, as did Mitt Romney, the NRA-backed nominee for president," Murphy said in an announcement preceding the press conference.
"This report starts to debunk the myth that if you cross the NRA, you have a political price to pay � the NRA just isn't what it used to be."
Connecticut's junior senator went on to pen an op-ed piece on politico.com in which he said the NRA "tiger is made of paper."
Murphy also attacked Apple Inc. for labeling an NRA-produced shooting computer game acceptable for children as young as 4 years old.
"How could they think it was a good idea to use the one-month anniversary of the tragedy at Sandy Hook to release a game that teaches 4-year-olds to shoot assault weapons," Murphy said in his widely reported criticism of the shooting game.
It is interesting that Murphy successfully ran for his new Senate seat against a moderate Republican who hugged the middle of the political spectrum here in blue Connecticut.
But Senate candidate Linda McMahon earned a solid AQ rating from the NRA, the best ranking a candidate who has never actually voted on gun issues can earn from the principal gun lobby.
So it turns out that one campaign issue that decidedly separated McMahon and Murphy in the 2012 Senate race has quickly become a defining issue for the newly minted Sen. Murphy.
This is the opinion of David Collins.

Research scientists at Cinvestav, the Research and Advanced Studies Center in Mexico, who created the robot, stated that in Ibero-America, the "Mex-One" was the most highly developed robot of its type, and that it had better functions than robots created by the U.S., European and Japanese companies.
The humanoid weighs approximately 15 kg and is 1.05 m tall. With its eyes, it has the ability to follow moving objects. The robot would also have the ability to pour water, climb stairs, recognize faces, learn by experience and hold basic conversations. A wireless system that is connected to two computers makes up the cognitive memory, where the robot stores data.
The robot has an open architecture and would allow universities and research centers to develop new ideas, applications and algorithms. Eduardo Bayro, researcher at Cinvestav, states that the humanoid could function as hospital assistant and museum guide. He added that sub-products from Mex-One could lead to devices for performing transplants and operating tumors, and intelligent body parts such as feet and hands for disabled persons.

Children and young people
All children with a learning disability have the right to a good start in life and a childhood like everyone else. Their families don't get the support they need, and their parents have to fight for services and opportunities.
Mencap believes that all children with a learning disability have the right to:
- a childhood like everyone else
- a good start in life
- a good education
- equal life chances and opportunities for the future.
Special Educational Needs Code of Practice
As part of the reform of the SEN system, the government has published the new
On 5 February 2013, the government published its Children and Families Bill to reform services for vu
The Children and Families Bill
On 5 February 2013, the government published its Children and Families Bill to reform services for vu
Early years
It is vital that the families of all children with a learning disability have access to high-quality information and services as early as possible.
Every child with a learning disability has a right to a high-quality education that meets their special educational needs.
Mencap's education policy
Read Mencap's education policy for children and young people with a learning disability.
Childcare during school holidays
One in three parents of disabled children received no holiday childcare during summer 2011.
Young people
Young people with a learning disability do not have the same opportunities to go to college, get a job or have a social life as other young people.
Leaving school
Leaving school can be an exciting but challenging time for young people with a learning disability. There are often many options to consider and lots of decisions to make. Find out about the support available.
New SEN clauses of Children and Families Bill
On Monday 3 September, the government published draft clauses on reforming the special educational needs (SEN) system.
Mencap supports Every Child in Need campaign
Mencap is supporting the principles behind the Every Child in Need campaign which has highlighted concerns about the government's proposals to change the legal framework protecting the assessment of vulnerable children in need of social care support.
Martin's story
As a family we knew that the year 9 review (age 14 years) would be the start of a very important journey leading up to Martin leaving school at 19 years.
Christopher's story
Christopher is 24 years old. He has a severe learning disability and a complex type of symptomatic epilepsy.
Peter's story
I'm Peter and I'm 17 years-old. In my spare time I like horse riding and playing on my computer.

Note to Instructors: Blue Moon Natural Foods
Kammermeyer, Jill A., Naumes, Margaret J., Entrepreneurship: Theory and Practice
Blue Moon began as a natural foods market in Exeter, New Hampshire, added a small restaurant to its deli, and opened an upstairs space for classes by instructors from the local community. Blue Moon's founder, Kathy O'Leary Gallant, had a vision that had evolved over time and a strong commitment to her customers. Kathy added new business segments in response to perceived opportunities, and to what interested her.
This case describes an actual small business whose growth has been driven by the owner's desire to provide a place in town with a sense of community, get to know her customers, and cook for people who appreciate good food. It was clear from the beginning that Blue Moon Natural Foods was not just a business, but an extension of Kathy's lifestyle.
Key Issues and Discussion Points
The focus is on Kathy Gallant's interest in determining a future for her business and herself; the case involves issues of strategic positioning and entrepreneurial lifestyle. Challenges include Blue Moon's marginal profitability despite continued growth, the emergence of chain store competitors in natural/organic foods retailing, and whether and how to separate her personal goals from those of the business. Many of the dilemmas of small business described by Churchill and Lewis (1983), particularly in terms of whether to disengage of position the business for the long term, are discussed in this case. The entrepreneur's values and their impact on her decisions are intertwined. Key issues and discussion points include:
1. Definitions of success, including the triple bottom line.
2. Entrepreneurial skills and values, including growth versus lifestyle.
3. Competitive analysis and sustainable competitive advantage.
4. Strategic positioning in a changing market.
5. Development of an exit strategy congruent with the values of the entrepreneur.
Potential Audience and Uses
This case was developed for courses in entrepreneurship and small business management at either the undergraduate or graduate level. It can be used early in the course to evaluate entrepreneurial characteristics and "success." Positioned later in the course, the case can highlight the development of specific strategies for sustainability, continued growth, and/or the founder's exit from the firm.
Suggested Teaching Approach
Issues of entrepreneurial values/vision and competitive advantage/positioning can be developed in one class period. Asking the students if they "think Kathy is successful" can start the discussion, leading to consideration of how personal values can influence decision making and of Blue Moon's strengths and weaknesses, followed by its competitive positioning. …

Download our illustrated guide to play yards
The lowdown on play yards
Play yards have come a long way, morphing from the metal-framed "playpens" of yore to their modern incarnation as a do-it-all baby product.
Today's play yards provide a safe place for your baby or toddler to sleep and play, whether you're at home or traveling. The best ones are attractive, easy to fold, and versatile, and a good one will come in handy for years.
Many parents skip buying a separate bassinet and changing table for their child's nursery and use a play yard that includes those features instead.
It's easy to move a play yard from room to room, which is especially helpful when you have a newborn. You can roll your little one to different spots around the house for daytime naps. And position the play yard next to your bed in the evening for easy middle-of-the-night feedings and changes.
Of course, a play yard is great when you're traveling or on the go too. It offers a safe and familiar place for your child to sleep at a hotel or at Grandma's house, for instance. It can also create a "safe zone" to contain your crawling baby or curious toddler when you're in a more hazardous place – at the beach, for example, or visiting a relative whose house isn't childproofed.
When your baby outgrows the bassinet (at 15 pounds or when he can sit up, pull up, or roll over), simply lift it out to make more room. Your child can still sleep in the play yard, using the bottom mattress. But since the bottom mattress is thin, and it's not safe to add extra padding (see safety notes, below), you'll probably want your child's primary sleeping spot to be somewhere more comfy.
As your child gets older – and more mobile – a play yard can keep him out of trouble when your attention is elsewhere, like on getting ready for work or making dinner. This works well from when your child is just beginning to crawl – at around 6 to 10 months – till he's about 2.
Tip: If you're planning to bring your play yard on airplane trips, keep the box it comes in. You can pack your play yard in that box and check it with your luggage.
Safety notes
More than 1 million play yards have been recalled in recent years because of side rails that didn't latch properly or collapsed. If you're using a secondhand play yard, use our Product Recall Finder to make sure it hasn't been recalled, and double-check that all the parts are in good shape.
Never put your baby in a play yard until it's completely assembled and locked. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for assembly. And once you've assembled the play yard, test that the rails and floor are locked in position by giving it a few firm shakes.
Follow the manufacturer's recommended weight and age limits. Some manufacturers say to stop using the play yard once your child reaches 35 inches or 30 pounds, others when your child is 3 feet tall or can climb out.
Follow the recommended limits for the bassinet or changer, too, if your play yard has these. Bassinets can usually be used until your baby weighs 15 pounds, changers until your baby weighs 25 to 30 pounds.
When putting your child to bed in a play yard, use the same safe sleeping guidelines you would in any situation. Put your baby to sleep on her back, and don't put loose blankets, pillows, or other soft bedding in the play yard. If you use a sheet, make sure it's made especially for a play yard mattress and is tight-fitting.
What it's going to cost you
Basic play yards (without extra features like a bassinet, changer, and mobile) range from about $65 to $150. Fancier models with extra features run about $150 to $250.

Roll Breathing
- Put your left hand on your belly and your right hand on your chest. Notice how your hands move as you breathe in and out.
- Practice filling your lower lungs by breathing so that your "belly" (left) hand goes up when you inhale and your "chest" (right) hand remains still. Keep your shoulders relaxed and don't shrug. Always breathe in through your nose and breathe out through your mouth. Do this 8 to 10 times.
- When you have filled and emptied your lower lungs 8 to 10 times, add the second step to your breathing: Inhale first into your lower lungs as before, and then continue inhaling into your upper chest. As you do so, your right hand will rise and your left hand will fall a little as your belly falls.
- As you exhale slowly through your mouth, make a quiet, whooshing sound as first your left hand (belly) and then your right hand (chest) fall. As you exhale, feel the tension leaving your body as you become more and more relaxed.
- Practice breathing in and out in this way for 3 to 5 minutes. Notice that the movement of your belly and chest rises and falls like the motion of rolling waves.

Okay, so maybe you haven't heard of National Ear Muff Day, which just passed yesterday, but if you've been anywhere near a secondary school math classroom in the last decade–or have math nerd friends like I do–you've probably heard a thing or two about Pi Day. The Reader's Digest Version? It's March 14–3/14–and Pi, the irrational number that is related to the circumference and diameter of a circle, is approximately equal to 3.14, though the decimal places are though to go on forever. You can learn a little more about Pi here, or you can just dive in to some of the fun mathematical-themed knitting and crochet patterns I found on Ravelry to celebrate Pi.

Every day is some kind of holiday, and I'm not talking about the big ones with leprechauns or bunnies. It turns out, today is National Earmuff Day, which obviously means I need to share some of my favorite ear-warming patterns with you. The good news is that all of these patterns are quick to knit or crochet, so you can whip them up in an evening and use them to keep your ears warm in the last dwindling days of cool winter and early spring weather. What do you say?

Knitting teacher and author Heather Lodinsky joins us for another article on the wonderful world of cables. Click here to read her previous blog post on knitting cables.
Creating cables with yarn may conjure thoughts of knitting—but did you know that this magic twisting of stitches can be worked in crochet? Last month, we explored how cables in knitting are created by the use of a cable needle to change the order of stitches and to shape the resulting left or right twist of the cable. The first time I saw a crochet cable pattern, I thought there must be a complicated technique to "twist" stitches that were already worked. In knitting, cables are made rearranging the order of "live" stitches (ones that are not bound off, or finished). So, with the exception of the one loop on your crochet hook, how do you create a cable with stitches that are already finished? The answer lies in how you work each stitch and in which order they will be worked in a given row.

In celebration of National Crochet Month, I'll be featuring advanced crochet techniques each Monday on the Notebook. Missed last week's feature on Tunisian crochet? Check it out here.
No matter what you call it–colorwork, tapestry crochet, fair isle, intarsia, jacquard or otherwise–the art of working a design into the fabric of a crocheted product simply by changing colors is a skill that never gets tired. Though intarsia has long been popular in Scandinavian-inspired knitwear, especially sweaters in rich neutrals, it is a method that lends itself to nearly any personal style, from formal and traditional to the fun, "geeky" project a friend is doing with the logos of favorite video games. Whether you seek to create a colorful abstract jacquard pattern or really want a blanket with your favorite sports team's logo stitched in, learning colorwork is the way to get there.
As difficult as it may look, the great news about colorwork–which is most typically called tapestry when talking about crochet–is that it's a relatively easy skill to learn, and only requires the patience of changing colors multiple times and following a chart as opposed to a typical pattern.
|All you have to do to change a color mid-row is to crochet your stitch except for the last yarn over and pull through.
|The last yarn over will be with your new color, and you'll pull that color through the two loops left on your hook from the previous color.
|Once you've linked that new yarn in, you'll continue crocheting as you had previously.Just don't forget to weave those ends in as you would any other end to ensure your treasured project doesn't unravel!
Now that you know the basics of how to change colors in crochet, take a look at some of these crochet blocks from stitch finder that will put those skills to work!

As we head into spring, there are more days when you need to start and end the day with a light sweater, but you may want it to be something easy to throw on and off as necessary. That, to me, is quintessential shrug weather. Relatively quick to knit or crochet, they're great projects for "just because" gifts. Make one for your best friend, your mother, your goddaughter, or your niece. Whip one up for your little girl, your sister, or your coworker.
Whether their style is earthy and simple, a little glitzy, or fancy, we have patterns that are just right for them.

Sunday, (8/4/01)I had an incredible experience while on my morning bike ride.
Im coming down a long incline, going 20 25 mph. On my left is a field of soybeans with a flock of small sparrow-like birds in it. On the right side of the road is a corn field. As I come up on the birds they startle and fly across the road, at an angle moving more or less with me. Suddenly a large Hawk swoops down and is right behind one of the little sparrows. The two of them are about 30 feet from me, going across the road, but at an angle that keeps them ahead of me.
The sparrow is squeaking and flapping like crazy to get away. The hawk has opened his wings, going from a dive to a fast glide. I can see his talons stretched out, reaching for the sparrow who is now only inches from his grasp.. Theyre half way across the road, right in front of me. I see the hawks wings dip slightly as he makes a slight correction for the cross winds. That gives the sparrow a few more inches of life between him and the large talons, desperately outstretched behind him. The hawk makes a little dip in his flight path to gain speed and is almost touching the sparrows tail feathers. Theyre now only 4 feet of the ground as the sparrow flys right between the cornstalks. The hawk looks up to see the corn rushing at him and his 3 foot wingspan and his objective suddenly changes. At the last minute he drastically pulls up, and his wings just clear the tops of the corn stalks as I wiz past him and the whole scene is behind me.
WOW what a 4 second rush!

I'm new, so forgive me if this has been asked before or if this isn't the right section.
So I'm 5'8", approx. 220lbs, with 45" hips and a larger butt. I recently bought a Motobecane Mirage with upright handlebars (cruiser style; sorry if that's not the correct technical term). I absolutely love it, but the saddle it came with is hard as a rock. After I bought it, I rode it home from the University campus, about a 7.5mi trip. I had to stop twice during the trip to get off and relieve the pressure on my backside. Thus, I'm in the hunt for a more comfortable throne. I won't be doing any racing or off-roading. I don't have a car, so this bike is my primary mode of transportation.
Thanks in advance.

Neonatal ICU
Banner Children's Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) care for the tiniest and often most fragile patients with advanced technology and personal attention.
Our NICUs care for ill or premature infants (less than 34 weeks gestation) requiring close observation. NICUs may also offer intermediate or continuing care areas for babies who are not as sick but may need specialized nursing care.
Our experienced and specially trained NICU care teams can include neonatologists, neonatal nurse practitioners, nurses, nurse practitioners, respiratory therapists and other caregivers who provide intensive and intermediate care for babies born at any gestational age.
Our team works closely with family members to develop a plan of care for high-risk newborns. Our neonatologists and nurse practitioners are available around-the-clock to provide care.
Each baby has unique needs, which is why very premature babies may have a developmental specialist, a specially trained registered nurse who evaluates the baby's unique strengths and challenges. With each evaluation, the developmental specialist partners with the family and other caregivers to make hospitalization less stressful for both the baby and the family.

Stonington - The proposed 2014-15 school budget and its nearly $1 million increase is expected to face a substantial cut Wednesday night when the Board of Finance tries to finalize a budget proposal to send to a public hearing.
Also facing a likely cut is the $2.2 million capital improvement budget and its $1.3 million increase, a large section of which is comprised of school items including security upgrades in the wake of the Newton shootings. The finance board is slated to meet at 7 p.m. at the police station.
The finance board began making cuts last week and the overall budget proposal now stands at $60.4 million, a 4.3 percent increase. If approved by the board, an extremely unlikely possibility, the budget would increase the tax rate by 1.35 mills to 21.23 mills, about four times that of the largest increase seen in the past five years. During that period, voters have approved budgets with tax rate increases of 0.00, 0.33, 0.20, 0.26 and 0.35 mills.
School board worried
School board Chairman Frank Todisco said Monday that he is "extremely concerned" about the cut facing the school budget, which shows a $997,374 or 2.9 percent increase, most of which is due to increases in employee raises, health insurance, fuel, electricity and special and magnet school education costs.
He said that any cut will impact classroom instruction and will force the board to look at reducing teachers, paraprofessional, textbooks and the funding of sports.
"There's really nothing else to look at," he said.
The school board has already eliminated eight teaching positions through attrition as well as five paraprofessionals and one computer technician as it reduced the original 6.4 percent increase in the school budget to 2.9 percent.
Todisco said the school board has already scheduled a special meeting for March 27 at 7 p.m. at the high school to determine exactly what items it will have to eliminate from the budget based on the expected finance board cut. He said the board wants residents to know what will be cut in time for the April public hearing.
If the finance board wants to cut one mill so the budget reflects a .35 mill increase, the same as this year, it would have to cut $2.5 million from the budget. To do that, it would have to cut all of the increases in the school, general government and capital improvement budgets.
Part of the problem facing the finance board is that is used almost $1.4 million from the town's undesignated fund balance to offset the tax rate in the current budget and prevent substantial cuts to the town and school budgets. Currently, the finance board does not plan to use money from the $11.7 million fund balance to lower the tax rate.
Todisco said Monday that he understands that is not an option this year. He added that he feels the fund should be used for emergency situations such as replacing the leaky Deans Mill School roof and not to offset the tax rate. Residents will vote to spend $1.2 million from the fund to make those roof repairs at tonight's 7 p.m. town meeting at the high school.
Last week the finance board cut $281,000 from the general government capital improvement budgets.

I live in Columbia, Missouri. I'm a huge Chicago Cubs fan.
How do you feel about the Cubs trading Samardzija, Aaron? I'm a bit torn on the deal.
I was upset about it initially, but I think it is the right thing for this long term plan to acquire better overall talent. The minor league system is pretty stacked. I think it will pay off.
What do they do with 3 shortstops?

Producer Craig Anderson has acquired rights to three books he'll develop as TV movies under an overall deal with Columbia Pictures TV, including "JFK: The Last Dissenting Witness," about a woman who allegedly spotted a second gunman during the assassination of John F. Kennedy.The "JFK" project is based on a book by Jean Hill, who claimed she was pressured by the government to remain silent, and Bill Sloan. The movie is in development at ABC, which also is developing the book "JFK: Reckless Youth" as a four-hour miniseries through the Polone Co. (Daily Variety, Dec. 4). Anderson also plans to produce Peter Kurth's novel "American Cassandra," a biography of journalist Dorothy Thompson, as a CBS movie to star Nancy McKeon ("Facts of Life") in association with Forest Hills Entertainment.

After hit Bollywood number "Baby Doll", Meet Bros Anjjan and singer Kanika Kapoor have now teamed up for "Love Letter" for "The Legend of Michael Mishra".
Composed by Meet Bros Anjjan and sung by London-based singer Kanika, who is an Indian Punjabi Sufi folk singer, "Baby Doll", which was picturised on Indo-Canadian adult film actress Sunny Leone for the movie "Ragini MMS 2", became a chartbuster.
Now they are set to create the same sensation with "Love Letter", which will feature in Manish Jha's directorial venture "The Legend of Michael Mishra" that stars Arshad Warsi, Aditi Rao Hydari, Boman Irani and Kayoze Irani, said a statement.
Shareen Mantri Kedia and Kishor Arora of Eyecandy Films and WAVE Cinemas have co-produce the film.
Talking about the song, Arora said: "Being a quirky comedy with a different narrative, getting a fun fast paced track like 'Love Letter' as part of the film's music felt like the right decision."
"Kanika's voice and the beats by Meet Bros fall in beautifully with the fun tone of the film. After hearing the song, Manish Jha and I knew that this was a perfect track for our film. Meet Bros have done a great job with the track and Kanika has sung it with a lot of vigour," he added.
The film shoot is close to completion.

Boston Bruins history for June 29:
1948: Rick Smith (full name Richard Allan Smith) is born in Kingston, Ontario. Drafted by the Bruins in 1966, he began his play career in Boston in 1968. Two years later, he won the Stanley Cup, though he was traded to the California Golden Seals in 1972 and spent some time there before leaving the NHL altogether for the WHA's Minnesota Fighting Saints. That didn't last long, though, when in 1975 he made his NHL return with the St. Louis Blues. He stayed there until 1977, at which time he returned to the team he started playing with, though that wasn't his last team ever. 1980 saw him play with Detroit and Washington before his retirement.
1987: Petr Kalus is born in Ostrava, Czechoslovakia. The Bruins picked him 39th overall in 2005 and he proceeded to have an impressive 58-point season with the WHL Regina Pats before getting with the Bruins on an entry-level deal. He played mostly for Providence, though in his games with Boston, he scored on each of his first three shots in each game. No one had done that in the NHL since ten years previously. He was traded in 2007 to Minnesota for Manny Fernandez and played for their AHL affiliate for two years and, at one point, they gave him permission to go play in the KHL for a time. But that didn't go so well and Kalus decided to stay with Minnesota. A 2011 trade to Columbus saw him assigned to their AHL team as well. After that is when he made another try for playing abroad, this time trying out with a Finnish team and playing in his native Czech Republic as well as Sweden.

Help me understand people writing letters that are not accurate!
This letter is in response to the letter published on August 17, 2012, in the Tunica Times, that was written by Edward Walls. It seems as though he is disgruntled about several items that resulted from the Flood of 2011.
My husband and I own a little fishing house at Tunica Lake, which I will refer to as the Cut-Off. I don't feel that we are so isolated, ungoverned, or not a part of [Tunica County]. We receive a tax statement each year, we have garbage pick-up, we have public utilities. After the Flood of 2011, we were instructed where to place debris that was removed from our houses. The debris did have to be brought outside of the levee and placed in a designated area.

At the top: I hope Nick Watney enjoyed his time at the top of the FedExCup rankings, because it lasted only a week. Watney, who jumped up 48 spots following his win at the Barclays, slid to No. 2 after Rory McIlroy's victory at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Tiger Woods remained in the No. 3 spot, which means we'll get to see a McIlroy, Watney, Woods grouping at the BMW Championship. Brandt Snedker (4th) and Louis Oosthuizen (5th) round out the top-five after two events.
On the way up: Louis made the most significant jump, moving up 16 spots to fifth; he's now in a perfect position to win the $10 million. Jeff Overton, who was sitting in 83rd, shot up 43 spots to 40th with a T-7. Considering he went to school at the University of Indiana and this week's tournament is being played outside Indianapolis, he clearly had some motivation to move on to the third leg of the playoffs. Oh, and Dicky Pride went from 96th to 70th with a T-20. Not bad for a guy who was on the outside looking in at the start of the week.
On the decline: Ben Curtis finished dead last after two rounds and missed the cut; he fell from 37th to 47th after the reset. Ryan Palmer also missed the cut to go from 42nd to 57th in the standings. As far as notable names are concerned, Bubba Watson missed the weekend and dropped from 7th to 10th. But with a win or strong finish this week he'd by right back in the chase going into the Tour Championship.
On the bubble: Only the top 30 advance to East Lake in two weeks, so anyone outside the number has some work to do this week. That includes Dicky Pride (70th), Charley Hoffman (69th), Charl "four-putt" Schwartzel (68th), Kevin Na (64th), Padraig Harrington (56th) and Geoff Ogilvy (53rd). It's time to go low this week, gentlemen.
Out the door: There were 30 FedExCup casualties at TPC Boston, as the field went from 100 to 70 players. That means John Mallinger, Chad Campbell, Davis Love III (I think he has something important coming up), Harrison Frazar, Boo Weekley and Jason Bohn will be taking some time off to grind on the practice range.
All right, your turn. Who's your pick to take the championship at East Lake?
- Sports & Recreation
- Nick Watney
- Deutsche Bank Championship
- Tiger Woods
- Louis Oosthuizen

@ Darkerm : I have some new tiles already, the trees and grass (well rather im using a rom base from WAH). As for comepletely new tiles, I'm saving those that I have made for the second region, to emphasize it's not in Johto (or rather not even in that section of the world *cough not in japan *cough*) Also I'm worried about the size of them. I'm hoping to modify most of the game's music, which will require considerable space, I have 3 songs looped and inserted, and another 8 songs waiting to be inserted (sappy broke on me somehow...). I'd rather have a remixed gym leader theme, champion theme, area themes ect over new tiles. (Plus it'll give ppl something nice to listen to as their pokemon are killed by the killer lapras
And here's 2 more pictures! (I'll try to post a pic or video every time I post.)

Republicans add two seats in Oklahoma Senate
Shawnee and Tulsa have new Senators after Ron Sharp, a retired Shawnee High School teacher, and Nathan Dahm, a former missionary, won Tuesday runoff elections.
Because neither race drew candidates from the Democratic or independent parties, the Republicans fortified their stronghold Tuesday night in the Senate by two seats leading up to the November general election that will determine victors in 13 other seats.
Sharp, 60, defeated fellow Republican Ed Moore, a Baptist minister from Shawnee, in a very close runoff election for Senate District 17, which is in parts of Oklahoma and Pottawatomie counties.
Sharp had 1,705 votes or 52 percent and Moore had 1,608 votes or 48 percent of the votes.
"It was a close one," Sharp said. "It took a team effort to win this race."
Sharp said he's going to represent the entire district: Choctaw, Jones, Luther, McLoud.
"They're all going to see me," he said. "There's not going to be any part of District 17 that doesn't see me. I want them to know that they will have access to their Senator."
The district lines had been considerably redrawn for the seat before the June primary and no Democrats, including nine-year incumbent Sen. Charlie Laster, of Shawnee, filed for the seat.
In the primary two months ago, Moore had a slight lead and received 34 percent of the vote and Sharp 31 percent. Because neither candidate received a majority in the four-candidate race, they had to meet in the Tuesday runoff.
Tulsan wins election
Republicans also gained a seat in the Tulsa Senate race where incumbent Sen. Tom Adelson, D-Tulsa, didn't seek re-election following redistricting.
Voters selected Dahm for the seat. He won with 54 percent of the vote over Tim Wright. The two had been incredibly close in the primary race with only 126 votes separating them, however neither received a majority.
Sharp and Dahm will take office mid-November.
In Norman, voters selected Rob Standridge to advance to the general election in November to face Democrat Claudia Griffith.
Standridge said he has been campaigning since the senator currently in office — Jonathan Nichols — filed for a judge position in 2010.
"It's been over two years," Standridge said. "I can't imagine a longer campaign and my opponents, to their credit, they've been running a hard race."
Standridge, 45, is a self-employed pharmacist from Norman.
In south-central Oklahoma, Corey Brooks, 33, defeated Peggy Davenport to face Democrat Mike Fullerton in the general election.
Senate District 43 represents McClain County and parts of Grady, Garvin and Stephens counties. The incumbent Greg Childers was unable to seek re-election because he no longer lived in the redrawn district lines.
"We're certainly very excited and very grateful to those who have supported us," said Brooks, who is a retired naval officer who spent several years in Washington, D.C., working at the Pentagon. "It seems we've got a pretty good strategy going and that's meeting voters where they are."
Brooks said he thinks his district is responding well to his Christian conservatism.
All of the races in Tuesday's runoff attracted four Republican candidates in part because no incumbent was seeking re-election, but also because the district lines were considerably redrawn.

U.S. Supreme Court
Standard Oil Co. v. Graves, 249 U.S. 389 (1919)
Standard Oil Company v. Graves
No. 177
Argued January 23, 1919
Decided April 14, 1919
The construction of a state statute must be judged by its necessary effect; the name is not conclusive. P. 249 U. S. 394.
A law of the State of Washington requires that products of petroleum, intended for use or consumption in the state, shall be inspected before being sold or offered for sale, and imposes fees for inspection by which in 10 years over $335,000 was collected, of which only about $80,000 was disbursed for expenses, leaving a revenue of over $255,000. Held, in respect of such products imported from another state for sale in Washington, that the charge is excessive, and an unconstitutional burden on interstate commerce. Id.
94 Wash. 291 reversed.
