Proposal would open National Forest roads
June 15, 2013
Editor: The West Virginia Open Trails Association has been working with the management of the Monongahela National Forest to open existing forest service roads to all motor vehicles including off ......
Pure: I've "never" seen an idiot in a road leagal truck off the main road tearing up property. Do you think the Meth heads aren't already cooking in the hills? If so, you're sadly mistaken. I'm sure you're for gun control too. It's not the guns or the 4 wheelers doing the damage, it's the law breaking citizens using them!

My reading of the article gives me to understand that ATV and UTV's would only be allowed on forest roads just like they are allowed on roads without center lines here in WV. I have ridden my ATV a few thousand miles in Randolph and Tucker counties over a three year period. My ATV could do no more damage to the dirt roads than a four wheel drive pick up truck. The problem is when people get off the roads and destroy the land. I would like to see a law that would take away and ATV or UTV and a huge fine for anyone caught off road on NF land.

Firm will in parallel provide $2.5M to support academic Sino-European diabetes research. [© Anetta - Fotolia.com]
Eli Lilly is establishing a dedicated diabetes research center in Shanghai, and has pledged about $2.5 million to support a new partnership with the Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS) and European Foundation for the Study of Diabetes (EFSD). The new Shanghai facility, due to open in the second half of 2011, will focus on the discovery and development of antidiabetics with novel mechanisms of action, along with treatments that target co-morbid conditions such as cardiovascular disease and obesity.
The aim is to discover therapies that target the molecular basis of diabetes in Chinese and other Asian populations. In parallel, Lilly aims to work in partnership with the CDS and EFSD to promote collaborative diabetes research by Chinese and European academic organizations.
Lilly says the incidence of diabetes in China has reached epidemic proportions. The firm cites recently published figures suggesting the disease affects about 10% of the Chinese population, equivalent to 92 million people.
"Given key differences in the molecular basis of diabetes in Chinese and other Asian populations, a major focus at this center will be on discovering therapies that target critical aspects of the disease," remarks David Moller, M.D., vp of endocrine and cardiovascular research and clinical investigation at Lilly.
"By establishing a diabetes research center in China, Lilly will be better able to discover medicines that are well suited to the particular needs of patients with diabetes in China," adds Jacques Tapiero, svp and president of Lilly's emerging markets business. The Shanghai diabetes center will employ about 100 scientists, headed by international diabetes expert Bei Betty Zhang, Ph.D., who acts as vp of research for Lilly Research Laboratories in China.
Lilly says it has been building its organization in China since the early 1990s. With its Chinese R&D operations based in Shanghai, the firm also has manufacturing facilities in Suzhou, and over 300 offices throughout the territory. It claims to be the only global pharmaceutical company to have created a venture capital fund focused on the Chinese biopharma industry. Lilly Asian Ventures was established in 2007.
Lilly's U.S.-marketed diabetes portfolio includes products for both type 1 and type 2 disease, headed by the Humalog® and Humulin® product families for type 1 disease, and Byetta® and Actos®, for treating type 2 diabetes. The firm's global pipeline includes products at all stages of clinical development.
It has not been all smooth running for pivotal-stage products, unfortunately. Just last month Lilly and partner MarcoGenics announced they were suspending enrollment into ongoing clinical studies with the humanized anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody teplizumab, due to disappointing Phase III results. A planned analysis of one-year safety and efficacy data from the Protege study by the trial's independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) found that teplizumab therapy did not meet its primary composite endpoint of insulin usage and HbA1c levels, in patients with recent-onset type 1 diabetes.
The teplizumab trial data was reported just a day after Lilly, Amlyn, and Alkermes confirmed that FDA had requested additional trial data on the type 2 diabetes drug Bydureon™, before it could consider approving the therapy. An NDA for Bydureon had been submitted to the agency in May 2009. FDA's complete response letter to the firms requested a thorough QT (tQT) study with exposures of exenatide higher than typical therapeutic levels of Bydureon. The drug is a once-weekly formulation of exenatide, the active ingredient of Byetta injection.

Tampa, Fla. -- The winningest season in Stetson women's basketball history came to end Sunday as host USF downed the Hatters 75-56 in the second round of the WNIT at the Sun Dome.
Brianti Saunders led the way with 16 points, but the Hatters (27-8) shot just 32 percent from the floor and 18 percent from behind the arc.
Inga Orekhova hit six three pointers and scored 22 points to lead the Bulls (21-12). USF outrebounded Stetson 43-32.
"It just wasn't our day," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "I thought we got some good shots, but at some point you have to stick them in the basket."
Senior Sasha Sims added 11 points in her 135th and final game as a Hatter. She finished her career with 1617 points, more than any player in school history and the 16th highest total in conference history. She also recorded three blocks against the Bulls, bringing her Stetson career-record total to 147.
"I thought she had a great game," Bria said about Sims. "She was aggressive, she was physical, and she played like a pro. She did a great job and I was really proud of her."
For the season, the Hatters set school records for most wins (27), most conference wins (16), most road wins (12), and longest winning streak (16). Stetson's 79.3 scoring average was the second-highest total in school history, while the team set school-records for most points, rebounds, three-pointers, and blocked shots in a single-season.
"I never dreamed that after losing six seniors these kids would do what they did," Bria said. "This was a tough game for us, but when you look at the body of work, they did a great job."
As the lone senior, Sims will be the only player graduating from this year's roster.
"She will be missed, she will be hard to replace, but we have the bulk of our kids back, so that is encouraging, too," Bria said. "I think we will be more of a veteran team (next year). I think the expectations will be very high because this team has set the bar there. If we have everybody back and healthy, I think we will have a really good team. How many wins will we have? I don't know. This team was good, but I think next year's team will be better."
Notes: Amber Porter produced one of the top statistical seasons in school history. Her 484 points was the highest total ever for a Hatter freshman. However, it was her ability to block shots on a consistent basis that made her one of the top rookies in the country. With 129 blocks, Porter produced the second-highest blocks total in A-Sun history and the fifth-highest total for a freshman in NCAA history ... Stetson did not lose back-to-back games all season.

Here's good news for Green Day fans: judging from the band's sprawling two-and-half-hour set Thursday at the Los Angeles Sports Arena, singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong seems to have slayed his demons -- or at least figured out how harness them to drive marathon-like performances.
The core trio of Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt (pictured below) and drummer Tre Cool were assisted at times by three additional musicians on guitars, keyboards and backing vocals throughout the career-spanning set. Throughout the set, new material such as the old-time rock 'n' roll-flavored "Oh Love" and the set-closing "Brutal Love" held up well against the band's classics like "Welcome to Paradise" and "Longview."
Yet Green Day showed that they've transcended their initial influences to create a body of work that will likely be considered classic rock in the future, if it isn't already. The band's 1996 song "Brain Stew" didn't sound out of place when it followed the AC/DC and Led Zep classics. And, the songs from their 2004 multi-platinum album American Idiot, including the mid-set performance of "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and the encore double-shot of the title track and "Jesus of Suburbia," were nothing less than stunning.
With frequent split-legged leaps off the monitors, Armstrong was in non-stop motion through much of the set, save for the few times he collapsed on his back to ratchet-up the drama. He left the more intricate guitar work, most notably the solo on "Holiday," to long-time touring member Jason White. But, overall the band was tight instrumentally and Armstrong was strong in voice, with the exception of the purposely sloppy cover medley.

The Ashley Ridge baseball team kept its winning streak alive with a pair of region wins early this week.
On Tuesday, the Swamp Foxes used a big arm and a big hit to claim a 3-2 victory over Beaufort.
Junior Bradley McLaughlin hit a three-run homerun in the first inning that was all the offense the Swamp Foxes needed. He finished 2 for 3 at the plate.
"He has been a spark for us," Ashley Ridge coach BJ Bellush said. "We gave him his opportunity in the Hanahan tournament and he took advantage of it. He has two homeruns and two doubles in the last five games."
James Govan provided much of the defense, pitching the first five and one-third innings and only surrendering one earned run.
"James is a senior who waited his turn and he has been outstanding on the mound for us this year," Bellush said.
Carson Walls entered in relief and closed the game out.
On Wednesday, the Swamp Foxes (9-11, 5-4 in Region 8-AAAA) improved their winning streak to five with a 10-1 win over Colleton County (6-14, 3-7).
Sophomore John Sanchez earned the pitching win, his third of the season.
Ashley Ridge tallied 15 hits in the game. Jason Miller and Hunter Grover were 3 for 4 at the plate and Aaron Miller was 2 for 4 with three RBIs.
Ashley Ridge scored two runs in the fourth inning, four in the fifth and four in the seventh while holding the Cougars to a sole run in the fourth.
The Swamp Foxes close their regular season on Monday when they host West Ashley.

hi, just felt the need to say that the picture does not show two seperate shakers as some people seem to think... on the picture is the shaker by itself, and then the shaker with the protein/supplement compartment attached.
Great shaker that I use everyday, handy for storing a servering of BCAA and / or Protein in the bottom and a tablet / pill compartment in the middle which stores several days worth of Multi Vit's, Omega 3 and Thermopure without them getting mixed up. Sometimes the dirt can be difficult to clean inside the lid but a blast of water or one of the kids small paint brushes cleans it in secondsGoes Well With:Protein, BCAA, Capsules
Really like this for dividing up portions and means I can divide up a whole days worth of protein and creatine in one bottle. Would be better if it had a mixer ball though because the sieve-style top doesn't allow all the liquid to pour and you get a bit left in the bottom.
This is a brilliant shaker for being on the go. You can fill up two shakes (pre/post workout) and store a pre trainer as well or pills if thats what you prefer. Just take out the mesh as protein gets caught in it. Worth the investment.Goes Well With:Take out the plastic mesh for mixing
Got one of these with my last order to get the free delivery and next discount level up. Although for me it made it effectively free, I'd have happily paid full price for it as it's a very good product. A week in and it's been absolutely brilliant. The bottom compartment easily holds 2 scoops of protein powder. The other compartment can be used for another/more powder (just remove the pill divider), or any tablets. For someone on the move all day, all I need is to load it up in morning and I'm good until I get home again. I just need to get some water or milk and mix away. It's also dishwasher safe, making cleaning at the end of a hectic day a breezeGoes Well With:People on the go, who don't fancy carting containers and pill boxes to work/the gym
I was finding I was taking one bottle and one shake plus pills all separately but now I have this shaker I just take the one. It's a really a really handy shaker! If your going to buy a shaker but this one.Goes Well With:Whey protein and supplements
Great taste with water or milk mixes great aswell and an effective product
Love this shaker!!! It's handy as I take pills throughout the day and can also go to the gym more than once with using the compartment in the bottom for extra protein. Plus it's cheap in comparison to others!
Great shaker. It's quite simple to carry along your daily supplements with this smart shaker. It has special compartments for supplemental pills and for another protein dose.
Such a great shaker, easy to use, easy to clean... I use it so I can take two serves of protein to work each day, the pill compartment would be very handy if I used anything else with it too!Goes Well With:Protein mix
I had previously been using a shaker the same as this which belongs to my wife so i knew exactly what i would be getting. It's an ideal size to chuck in my bag to take to work with the milk in the shaker & the powder in the base, i don't tend to use the smaller (pill) compartment but who knows it may find a use in the future. The powder compartment will take two measures if it is compressed slightly but theres not much point as the shaker will really only hold enough fluid for one scoop anyway although that suits me nicely. Overall it's a nice little no frills shaker which does the job it's supposed to do which is good enough for me.
When i selected it online, I only needed a cheap shaker. When it arrived, I noticed that the measurements are perfectly readable on the shaker. It's perfectly sealed, which enables me to shake my mixes really heard safely and quickly. I would definitely recommend it over any other shakers!Goes Well With:isolate whey
Best shaker I have had. Mixes well and easy to clean. I recomend this to anyone t the good price.
The product was alright, although the lid on the shaker was a little stiff and hard to open and close. I have had the product before and have had no problems, good overall product, recommended to all, may have had one in a bad bunch.
The Myprotein SmartShake is a very good shaker, and does what it proscribe to do. when using a varied amount of protein powder, it has mixed up very well. the bottle is well fitted and i found no leaks from the bottle, the compartment to hold the protein powder is well fitted and holds the protein very well. very good shaker
Such a good idea for people who are on the go!! I use this every day and have already bought another. I use the bottom section for storing nuts, the next one up for any Tablets and there is enough room for a protein shake in the mixer bottle.
its great, and does exactly what i want it to do, the picture shows on the left all the things included, and the shaker on the right shows the 3 sections of it screwed together, it is a small 500 ml shaker, not the usual 700
very easy to use and just the right size for my gym bag
i use the storage and bottles daily, got quite a few now, fantastic. & great delivery and service as always
The shaker is smaller than the standard ones which is fine and it works well. There is a handy pill compartment seperator if that is your thing. It also has a compartment for extra protein - which is just too small. Most proteins advise a 70g serving, if you fill this with 70g you will not be able to screw it shut, so it could be bigger in my opinion.
I love My Protein and their products are really good but the product picture was misleading . The photo shows 2 shakers of different sizes but only received the small one. As the single shaker is 1/2 the price I wrongly assumed this package included everything in the photo.
I wanted something to carry my protein when going to the gym. This is perfect, it carries two portions and blends it very well....... No lumps! Overall a great purchaseGoes Well With:Myprotein impact whey protein and instant oats
The service is excellent! The deliverys are always on time and the products are top notch! I reccomend them too all my friends who train and the website, everythin is very good value for money!
No more sandwich bags of protein or pots of pills! Storage compartments are genius, I only wish the shaker was a little bigger. I'd still buy another!
Great shaker for all my needs. Can carry two servings of protein powder as well as my supplements. Really handy for day-to-day or gym use. Nice smooth shakes are a bonus!Goes Well With:Everything needed!
Very happy with the purchase.Mixes the protein shake smoothly, no more bits for me! Goes Well With:Any protein shake, I used it with impact whey protein
Very handy shaker bottle. Mixes well and the bonus of holding upto 50g or a decent amount of supplements in each compartment is brilliant. Makes taking shakes to work/gym much easier.Goes Well With:Whey protein. Thermopile. CLA's
Great size, Not too bulky, handy clip to attach to your belt if need be while training, handy powder compartment for putting your protein in and tablet divider for supplements, all round useful bottle that is very easy to keep clean also!
Great size, Not too bulky, handy clip to attach to your belt if need be while training, handy powder compartment for putting your protein in and tablet divider for supplements, all round useful bottle that is very easy to keep clean also!Goes Well With:Water and All Mixable additives
Great for when I go to gym straight from work to carry a couple servings of why protein plus the added bonus of holding nuts or tablets in the lid of the internal container.
As my first foray into the supplement world I found this item very useful. Simple and effective just put in your protein powder fill it up to the correct measurement as shown on the side for your drink, pop on the lid, then shake. Drink. Done. There are handy compartments in the bottom too for storing any additional supplements you may use too. Goes Well With:Any protein powder
After receiving the free standard shaker with a previous order I found it to leak, the lid wouldn't close and it wouldn't mix properly with the silver ball rather than a mesh lid. I wasn't to bothered by this as I had received it free however I still needed a shaker so I ordered the SmartShake. Unlike the cheaper one there is a great mesh cap that mixes the shake perfectly. The lid is very secure and doesn't leak, and the extra compartments are great for my BCAA tablets and extra powder for later on. Perfect if you are out all day and need more than one supplement. Would definitely recommend.Goes Well With:Any supplements, I use it for creatine, impact whey and BCAA tablets
So much easier to carry around my protein with the bottle rather than have carry it in a separate tub. Gets rid of any lumps
Does exactly what it needs to do. Allows you to carry more than 1 serving throughout the day!Goes Well With:Impact Whey Isolate
The perfect shaker for on the road , handy to use and an excellent quality!!Goes Well With:PowerTower
Very good product, no leakage and nice size to fit in gym bag too. Would definitely recoomend.Goes Well With:Protein shakes
Great shaker can take all my requirements for the day in this doesn't leak and mixes the protein well
I take this to work with me every day. The bottom compartment is the perfect size for 2 large MP scoops of powder, the middle section is easily big enough to hold a days worth of various tablets/ capsules and the main shaker a good size for making a standard shake. I have only used this with Choc & Mint Diet Impact Whey and found there to be quite a lot of lumpy bits but this could be a characteristic of this particular powder. Overall 5 stars - A great product! Goes Well With:You on the move!
Bought this as I needed a convenient way of transporting my protein powder to work or when I stay away. Allows me to take 2 portions of powder and even has a handy holder for vitamins etc. All in all, very good. Not yet found a use for the carabiner though :)
As the name is Smartshake - it really is. This shaker have many benefits: 1. You can store all needed nutritions to one shaker preout/during training/recovery drink. 2. You save plenty of space in your training bag or wherever you are keeping it 3. During workdays, you can have different aminos / sets with you and it really eases to recharge body with nutritions. 4. You have to clean only top part of the shaker. I recommend this product definitely, it eases daily life, and allows you get more results with less.
+ Does what it says, easy to clean, handy storage thingy that screws on to the bottom, compact, just what is was looking for. - pop off drinking lid fits too tightGoes Well With:everything
I love this shaker. I got mine over a year ago and it works as good as when it arrived, doesn't leak, top never comes off. Mixes better then any of the other shakers I've had. Like it so much bought my housemate one as her Christmas gift as she wanted a decent shaker. Best to spend a bit more on a decent one!
Very good, it's easy to assemble and dissemble. And it's great for holding many supplements including pills and powders in separate compartments. Easy to clean as well since everything can be taken apart.Goes Well With:supplements
quality shaker helps well in the gym shakes really well, blending mesh does sometimes gather small bits of protein but can't complain awesome shaker carries my pills and protein. would recommend Goes Well With:Everything
Very efficient and sturdy bottle, super good net as well which makes it easier for the powder to dissolve. The drink is very smooth afterwards. Only down thing is that it doesn't come in a bigger bottle. Would be nice for it to be 1L size as well as 500ml.
Awesome shaker cup to take out on the go washes well and is very secureGoes Well With:Protein
All good, thank you
this is a great shaker,but the white bit on the lid broke after 2 weeks! the bit that goes over the hole ripped off gradually and fell into the shaker. other than that,its a good product.
Great for carrying 2 powders around in one no mess pot .
Increases convenience considerably.

LOCKPORT – Two brothers were sent to state prison Wednesday for a pair of strongarm robberies in Niagara Falls last year.
The younger brother, Romello Desso, 17, was sentenced by Niagara County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas to three to five years behind bars, plus three years of post-release supervision. He was denied youthful offender status.
His 18-year-old brother was granted that status but was sent to the state prison system's boot camp-like "shock incarceration" program. If he succeeds there, he will be paroled in six months; otherwise, he will serve one to three years in a regular cell.
Defense attorney Anthony J. Lana said the older brother suffered brain damage at age 9 when he was struck by a car while riding his bicycle. "I don't think he has the courage or ability to say no. He's a classic follower," Lana said,
The brothers, who were living on Fifth Street in the Falls at the time, mugged a food delivery man July 12 and robbed a man of his wallet and cellphone three days later at Third Street and Ferry Avenue.
Assistant District Attorney Claudette S. Caldwell said their guilty pleas to third-degree and attempted second-degree robbery also covered a third incident, in which the pair tried to rob two young men of money only to find their victims had no cash with them.

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" asked Alice.
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
What's this fuss about a US fiscal cliff looming on New Year's Day? It's about devastating reductions in all government spending and devastating increases in all our taxes, including a 50 percent increase to those paying the lowest rates. In effect, measures that will assure another major recession.
Few people have thought through the companion questions of taxes and government spending as thoroughly as the late Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman. Friedman said, "I am in favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse, for any reason, whenever it's possible." But even Friedman added that proviso at the end. That's what separates thoughtful tax cutters from political ones, such as Bush I and Grover Norquist.*
To prove he was conservative enough to be Reagan's heir, in accepting the 1988 Republican nomination for president, George HW Bush said, "Read my lips! No new taxes!" He received a thunderous ovation, as shown on here. I remember seeing that speech, and when he said that line yelling at him—through my TV—"You #### idiot! You know you'll raise them!"** True to my word, he did.
Indeed, Bush's popularity eventually rose to an almost unprecedented 91 percent as our first war with Iraq (which boasted the world's fourth-largest army) was won in record time with minimal casualties. Eighteen months later, having already reneged on his tax pledge and with the nation slowly recovering from a relatively mild recession***, his approval collapsed far and fast. How far and fast? In the 1992 presidential election, Bush garnered 37.5 percent of the popular vote, only twice what independent challenger Ross Perot received. That was significantly short of Bill Clinton's 43.8 percent.
Today we have Grover Norquist, founder of Americans for Tax Reform. Most Republican congressmen have signed his Taxpayer Protection Pledge. To me, the Norquist pledge exemplifies the saying, "Too clever by half." I think that, deep down, most of the signers knew that, too. It is one of those stupid litmus tests, like abortion or prayer, that Republicans tend to inflict on each other. Some of this delayed-action destructive power was seen in our recent election.
But let's be fair. When parties preach high-sounding principles, the preachers are politicians. Such principles are fine when they don't require candidates or constituents to sacrifice. That's why we shouldn't overdo them. I recall a good rule that's applicable here is, ALWAYS remember to NEVER say "always" or "never."
From my vantage point, the Republican leadership was trying to keep peace in a family where feelings could get ruffled at the slightest disagreement over a most trivial matter. During this past Republican primary season, before I joined Allvoices, I wrote that, while I understood why Republicans kept trying to "out conservative each other," it was an incredibly imbecilic practice. That's because successful politics is about bringing together a large group of people. Twelve people will have at least a dozen different views. Politics is about bringing people together over one or two core values, not every value. The test is to include as many as possible, not to exclude. Nobody's perfect. By contrast, the Democrats seemingly didn't much care who joined them, and they won.
Another issue for Republicans is their apparent knee-jerk reactions to losing the recent election. Historically speaking, it's the norm for the president's party to gain seats in both houses of Congress in the presidential election and to lose seats in the midterm election. So Republicans shouldn't throw out ideas they claim they stand for or swallow the instant analysis of either their own supporters or that of the incredibly biased mainstream media.
Remember, Mitt Romney lost the election—which is different than Barack Obama winning. Obama got a couple of percent more votes, not a mandate. He received less than 51 percent of the popular vote; Romney received over 47 percent. It wasn't a mandate, a landslide, or enough to justify silly talk about a third term. So let's just try to get our nation through to Jan. 20, 2017, successfully, thank you.
While Republicans haven't had time for a proper assessment of Nov. 6, they have had to focus on this fiscal cliff charade they helped create last year. So what to do?
One thing we must remember is that this fiscal cliff is a government artifact, not an economic law. Being a government artifact means the government can remove the fiscal cliff anytime it wants.****
If, like Alice, we want to reach our destination—away from the cliff—I suggest the following: Each major party should defend one thing it wants to be known for, and give up a little on another. Each side should sacrifice something it has given one of its constituencies.
For example, the Republicans could allow higher taxes for the wealthiest if and only if the Democrats concurrently restore all the work/training requirements in welfare (that Obama quietly removed in a pre-election power abuse). That must also include "means testing."
Think of the politics. Republicans would reduce the very deleterious entitlement mentality and relieve some of the working class's burden of supporting those whose don't work, whether by chance or choice. Democrats would boast about finally taxing the rich some more. This would reduce two gnawing emotional issues and could promote other essential compromises. Basically, each party would take something from one of its constituents. In this case, OK, the wealthiest would pay a few percent more, while the unemployed would assume more responsibility for themselves. It would also help if, unlike with Obamacare, both sides actually read the entire bill first.
* Grover Norquist is the founder and president of Americans for Tax Reform. He's the lobbyist who convinced virtually every Republican member of Congress as well as those running but not (yet) elected to sign a sacred pledge to never under any circumstance vote for a new tax or an increase in an existing tax. Read more about Norquist here.
** In the "no new taxes" link, "them" refers to the Democratic Congress.
*** Bush allowed taxes to go up in 1990. In July of that year a relatively mild recession started, one that ended around the time Desert Shield became Desert Storm.
**** The fiscal cliff is a sort of D-Day-like strategy. On June 6, 1944, when the Allies invaded France, the troops waded onto Normandy's beaches, and the ships that carried them immediately returned to England. The troops then had to win or be killed. There was no middle ground. Fortunately, they won.
Apparently, the "Super Committee" got a similar idea last year when they couldn't agree amongst themselves on taxes and spending. So they said, Let's take a year to think about and discuss this problem of our runaway national debt. The election will be over. Then we make the pain of the tax increases and government spending cuts so great that everyone will be forced to compromise. No one will like it, but they won't be able to retreat so we'll start on the road back to fiscal sanity because no one is going to want the consequences they will face if they don't compromise. It seems it was Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke who first used (or at least who the mainstream media first heard use) the metaphor that we are on a fiscal cliff. We won't be able to stay there, so, like Alice, Congress and the president will either have to find a way back by Jan. 1, or jump. "Jump" being the huge tax increases and spending cuts triggering another recession.
The negotiating approach so far has been to couple discussions about taxes with discussions about spending. Recently, some reports suggest some participants want to de-couple the twin issues of taxes and spending.
Unlike D-Day, I would bet on either Congress spinning some reason to prolong how long we can stay on the fiscal cliff, or Dr. Fuzzy Math will ride to the illusion of a rescue with skilled use of the weapons known as smoke and mirrors. And then the market's judgment will have to be spun.

Vertigho is a psychoactive drug that makes one feel "all floaty". It is not safe to drive under the influence of this drug. When taken in large doses it can greatly damage the anterior cingulate area in the thalamus region of the brain. This causes one's brain to be fooled into thinking that one is in extreme pain.

Their stories tend to be more mature, adult and realistic in nature and their plots usually are dark, complex and philosophical. Many of their comic books have won various awards in the past. Their most popular titles include The Sandman, Lucifer, Hellblazer, The Preacher, The Swamp Thing and many others.

YORKVILLE -- Though the plant still sits quiet, Esmark Inc. officials believe they are getting closer to starting the Ohio Cold Rolling Co. facility formerly owned by RG Steel.
``We hope for a less volatile steel environment. But we're committed to restarting when the time is right,'' said Esmark spokesman Bill Keegan, noting the company now has worked out a few kinks in the contract with United Steelworkers Local 1223.
After blaming several different reasons for being unable to start the plant as soon as initially anticipated - including the ``fiscal cliff negotiations'' late last year -- Esmark officials are unloading the company's technology division.
Cleveland-based Stahlschmidt Inc. finished a sale and licensing agreement last week to acquire Esmark's technology division for an undisclosed sum of cash. The venture will continue to operate under the ``Esmark Technologies'' brand, but Stahlschmidt will own 60 percent of the venture and manage operations.
``Esmark will continue to focus on its core businesses, especially given our recent acquisition of Ohio Cold Rolling Co. and Ohio Coatings Co.,'' said Esmark Inc. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James P. Bouchard.
Citing the growing Marcellus and Utica shale drilling industries, Esmark and Stahlschmidt expect the Ohio region will continue to be of significant importance. They believe future work could include providing pipe and other materials for the natural gas industry. The company also is considering a tin printing venture, as well as a possible coal transfer/blending station.
``Jim Bouchard has the unique ability to visualize and then implement large and complex transactions. I believe the latest Esmark venture has the potential to create returns equal to or greater to those Jim and his team achieved previously,'' said Uwe T. Schmidt, founder, chairman and chief executive officer of Stahlschmidt.
Bouchard said of Schmidt, ``He has served as CEO of some of the largest independent international steel trading franchises; developed billion dollar industrial projects and helped engineer unique supply chain management; and structured finance solutions for the metals, power and related industries.''
Esmark - which acquired all the Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corp. facilities in 2006 before selling them to OAO Severstal in 2008 - spent about $4.7 million to purchase the Yorkville mill as part of the RG Steel's bankruptcy and liquidation last year. After Esmark addressed some environmental issues at the site, USW 1223 members voted 194-24 to accept Esmark's contract offer in hopes of getting back to work early this year.
There has not been much activity at the plant lately.
USW 1223 President Jerry Conners said the average employee wage in the Esmark deal is $21.64 per hour, down from about $26 per hour under the last RG agreement.
Though he said workers were not pleased ``to go backwards on their wages,'' he noted most realized they would have to make some sacrifices to see that the Ohio Cold Rolling startup is a successful venture.
During the summer, officials with Esmark considered purchasing the downtown Wheeling RG Steel headquarters. However, Bouchard ultimately decided against making a bid for the downtown structure and the Wheeling Corrugating brand.

Buffalo Bills defensive end Mark Anderson's first season with the team lasted all of five games.
Coach Chan Gailey on Friday ruled Anderson out of the team's season finale Sunday against the New York Jets at Ralph Wilson Stadium. He's been out of the lineup since injuring his left knee in Week Five against the San Francisco 49ers.
The injury – a torn lateral meniscus – required two surgeries. That's more than the number of sacks (one) he finished with this year. He made 12 tackles in his five games.
Anderson, who signed a four-year, $19.5 million contract, was paid $8 million this season. He has a manageable $4 million cap hit next season – a $2.4 million salary, $1.5 million option bonus and a $100,000 workout bonus.
The Bills also ruled safety Da'Norris Searcy out for Sunday's game because of a groin injury. The rest of the Bills' injury report lists 12 players as probable: S Jairus Byrd (ankle), G Andy Levitre (knee), WR Ruvell Martin (not injury related), DT Kyle Williams (ankle), LB Nick Barnett (knee), FB Dorin Dickerson (ankle), WR Marcus Easley (hamstring), CB Justin Rogers (foot), LB Chris White (hamstring), C Eric Wood (knee), RB C.J. Spiller (shoulder) and DE Mario Williams (wrist).
The Jets listed defensive back Aaron Berry out because of a hamstring injury. Four New York players are doubtful, including the team's second-leading receiver, Dustin Keller, because of an ankle injury. The others are quarterback Greg McElroy (concussion), receiver Chaz Schilens (knee) and linebacker Bryan Thomas (chest). Receiver Braylon Edwards (hamstring/knee) and cornerback Ellis Lankster (concussion) are questionable.
The Bills promoted receiver Kevin Elliott to the 53-man roster from the practice squad Friday to take the place of injured tight end Scott Chandler. Elliott joined the Bills on Dec. 18.
Elliott played 13 games with Jacksonville this season after being signed as an undrafted free agent out of Florida A&M. He had 10 catches for 108 yards before being released Dec. 15.
Chandler visited with members of the West Webster Fire Department on Friday at Strong Memorial Hospital, including Joe Hofstetter and Ted Scardino, who were wounded Christmas Eve during an attack that killed two of their fellow servicemen.
Spiller was a finalist for the NFL's Ground Player of the Week honor, but lost to Kansas City's Jamaal Charles. He rushed for 226 yards on 22 carries in Week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts, while Spiller gained 138 yards on 22 carries in the Bills' loss to the Dolphins.
With 15 yards against the Jets on Sunday, Spiller can become the Bills' first running back to reach 1,200 yards since Willis McGahee in 2005.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Brent Venables typically has a short memory when he speaks to reporters postgame.
WHO: Georgia Tech (6-3, 5-2 ACC) at No. 9 Clemson (8-1, 6-1)
WHEN: Thurs. Nov. 14, 7:30 p.m.
WHERE: Memorial Stadium, Clemson
All that really shapes the his mood is how his Clemson defense performed in the fourth quarter.
Which is why he was as peeved after the Tigers' 40-27 victory at Maryland Oct. 26 as he was pleased after their 59-10 win at Virginia on Saturday.
How they finish is all that matters.
"Much better. Much better. That's a sign of improvement from a week ago, letting them in late," Clemson's defensive coordinator said Saturday.
It's strange, because statistically, No. 8 Clemson (8-1, 6-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) has actually avoided serious fourth-quarter dropoffs in the fourth quarter this year. Opponents have rushed for 2.7 yards per carry in the fourth — a full yard below their season figure — and completed just 49 percent of their passes, the lowest of any quarter.
By quarter, Clemson has allowed 52 points in the first, 45 in the second, 44 in the third and 44 in the fourth.
However, it grinds Venables' gears when Georgia goes 64 yards in 5 plays to score with 1:19 remaining, cutting a 10-point deficit to three. Or when S.C. State gets a 51-yard touchdown pass or N.C. State records a 23-play touchdown drive or Maryland posts 14 points in the final six minutes.
"That's not a sign of maturity," Venables said. "If you're a competitor, you don't like that. Same calls are working for 50 minutes, then all of a sudden they don't … you hate that. Your job is to keep people out of the end zone. For me personally, it takes a little bit of shine off it. Well, you won and that's all fine, but it still eats at you. And hopefully it eats at our guys.
"To finish with your guard down and sloppy play is very disappointing. A little bit of a concern."
Even though all those outcomes were no longer in doubt, Venables despises the notion of a prevent defense with a healthy lead for a few reasons.
One, he's seen teams choke away such leads when they're overly careful. When he was at Oklahoma, the Sooners coughed up a 17-point third-quarter lead to Colorado in 2007, for example.
"Everybody puts their guard down, plays not to lose, and then tries to do too much," Venables said. "Then you don't do anything right and you lose the game."
Two, it looks bad on the final stat sheet. Clemson enters its bye week with the No. 31-rated total defense (363.9 yards allowed), much improved from last year's No. 64 unit, but Venables is serious when he argues this could be a top-15 defense.
"There's nothing more pleasing as a coach than seeing your guys get a little bit better. That's what the good teams do," Venables said. "Nothing is more displeasing than seeing the guys regress. Knock on wood, haven't seen that."
And three, the Clemson way is letting the starters give way to the backups, which the Tigers did for more than a quarter and a half Saturday.
"There's a bunch of third- and fourth-team guys, a few walk-ons out there, having an opportunity to play. They work incredibly hard," Venables said. "So when you get the opportunity, it's always good to see them go out and perform."
The Clemson coordinators are almost impossible to impress, especially Venables. As recently as Tuesday, he was disgusted with the practice of letting teams like N.C. State and Maryland hang around at home, even though the Tigers won those games by 12 and 13 points.
"Immediately after (the Maryland game), he told us we had a great game, but he was real disappointed about those two drives," junior safety Robert Smith said. "He knew we were better than that, and as a defense, we knew we were better than that. Those two touchdowns at the end shouldn't have come.
"We never want to give up more points than we need to. That came Day 1 from when he got here. He's big on giving great effort and being intense all the time."
That's why Monday morning, when Clemson's defense meets to break down Virginia game tape, it won't watch the good plays. It will watch the bad plays. It's been that way every week with Venables running the show.
"We haven't arrived, by any stretch," Venables said. "But you don't have to play at a superhuman level to play sound and consistent."

Political Standing for Nov. 16, 2012
Saturday, 7:15 a.m., Political Scoop: My guest this week is Dan Mason, the winner of the Political Scoop election prediction contest. Mason, a staffer for the New Hampshire House Democratic Caucus, talks about how came up with his predictions. While there were bonus questions that he got wrong, he so crushed everyone else, getting 26 out of 27 questions correct. He did so well that bonus questions weren't even necessary.
Sunday, 10 a.m., CloseUP: Host Josh McElveen talks to U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte via satellite from Washington during a very busy week. Plus, former NHGOP Communications Director Ryan Williams comes on to talk about his amazing few years with the Mitt Romney presidential campaigns and the rumor that he could be drafted into serving as state party chair.
For Those Keeping Track
Jennifer Horn, the potential candidate to be the next NHGOP chair, was paid $3,000 as a consultant to Richard Foote's state Senate contest. Foote lost by 30 percentage points.
While doing some post-election hunting up north, former Republican candidate for governor Ovide Lamontagne killed a 12-point buck that weighed 244 pounds.
In Case You Missed It
The Bridges House has had a marvelous renovation under the leadership of First Lady Dr. Susan Lynch. You can see video in this WMUR story. Lynch's group is trying to raise money for the project through events and their website. On Sunday there is a cool event (for readers of this space anyway) that features the biographer of former U.S. Sen. Styles Bridges. Click here for more information on that event.
Last week I asked: When was the last time Democrats held the governor's office for 10 years straight?
Chris Crawford was the first to correctly answer that it was 1829-1844 stretch from Benjamin Pierce to John H. Steele. Caitlin Rollo also pointed out that it was during this period that a person named Franklin Pierce served as the youngest House Speaker at the age of 25.
Here is our question for this week: Next year, New Hampshire will be one of just three states where the House and Senate will be controlled by two different parties. Name the other two states.
Be the first to give the answer in an email (jpindell [at] hearst [dot] com), and I'll recognize you next week.
Questions for the weekend
What does Jim Luther do now?
Does losing the House Republican Leader slot make it more likely that Pam Tucker will run for Congress or some other higher office in 2014?
Have (or will) Charlie Bass and Annie Kuster have a long lunch or a quiet bottle of wine now that the campaign is over?
What would you do if you were Mike Biundo today?
Have sales for Annie Kuster's book gone up since she won the election?
Can you guess what story is about to rock New Hampshire politics that you don't know about yet?
Will Frank Guinta follow Carol Shea-Porter's practice of shutting down the Congressional office in December?
Will Kathleen Kelley be back from vacation before her State Senate recount takes place on Tuesday?
Which New Hampshire politician is going to the most interesting location for Thanksgiving?
How did Frank Guinta feel about Sharon Carson coming out of the gate saying she'll consider a run for Congress?
Who is more likely to run for the U.S. Senate: Jeb Bradley or Frank Guinta?
Does Bill Binnie care who will be the next NHGOP chair?
Who takes a look at the local post-election political scene and thinks they need to move on?
Which New Hampshire House member is the most upset that Twinkies are going away?
Does Chris Christie's 2013 re-election campaign prevent him from visiting New Hampshire until after November?
Are any out-of-state Romney staffers around anymore?
When Shawn Millerick wrote in the NH Journal that it had been a bad twenty years for the GOP and alluded to John Sununu and Steve Duprey being model chairs, did he forget that his wife was chair in 2003?
Andy Sanborn: He solidly won his recount and now two things are true: he owes nobody anything, and he can stay in that seat for as long as he likes.
Gene Chandler: The way things turned out he was probably one of the huge Republican winners this cycle. (Not that there were many).
Pam Walsh: Walsh not only had an amazing cycle as a consultant for the NH Democratic Party, she is now tapped to head Governor-elect Maggie Hassan's transition team.DOWN
Pam Tucker: While she remains popular in her local district she now has lost two internal party fights -- the earlier one for Republican National Committeewoman and now for House Republican Leader.
NHGOP: The truth is, no one wants to be chair. Several top-tier candidates have passed and that is evidence enough that the job is not desirable. Whoever eventually wins the position will be, as one GOP operative put it, "merely be the tallest midget at the circus." Ouch.

on March 31, 2013 - 12:02 AM
, updated March 31, 2013 at 12:03 AM
In 1965, my first full season as a baseball lover, the Red Sox lost 100 games. I was 9 at the time, too young to do the smart thing and find another team. How could I know my team would torture me for the next 38 years?
The Sox had a young team with Carl Yastrzemski, Rico Petrocelli and Tony Conigliaro, who led the AL in homers in '65 when he was only 20. Tony C is still the youngest player to lead a league in home runs. They had Fenway Park, with the big wall in left, the Green Monster. Things could only get better.
It helped that my best friend, Brian, was a Yankee fan. Brian was a batboy for a town amateur team. He was much wiser than I in the ways of baseball, and had a large collection of bats and gloves. But his once-dominant Yankees had fallen on hard times after losing the World Series the year before.
We had some spirited arguments about baseball in those days, when we weren't flipping baseball cards against the wall or playing hardball in the sprawling cemetery that separated our houses in Newport, R.I.
"The Red Sox stink!" Brian would say.
"Yeah, but the Yankees stink worse!" I'd holler back.
The next year, the Yanks proved me right. The Red Sox moved up to ninth place in 1966 with a 72-90 record (a 12-game improvement!). The Yankees finished 10th at 70-89. Brian told me the Yanks would have finished ahead of Boston if the league had allowed them to play those three rained-out games.
That was the last time the Red Sox and Yankees finished a season together at the bottom of a league or division.
Things did get better for the Red Sox. They won the pennant on the final day of the famous 1967 "Impossible Dream" season, the best year a young baseball fan could imagine. They didn't have another losing season until 1983. Over a 45-year span, the Sox had 40 winning seasons and finally won two World Series, ending the mythical "Curse of the Bambino".
The Yankees did all right after George Steinbrenner bought the team in 1973, reaching the postseason 22 times in 40 years and winning seven World Series titles. There was a rough decade in there from 1982 to '92. But they have an active streak of 20 consecutive winning seasons. The Bronx Bombers have won 100 games five times during that time, averaging 95 wins a season.
Do you know how many times the Yankees and Red Sox have had losing seasons in the same year since Brian and I squabbled about them in 1966? Once. In 1992, the Yanks tied for fourth and the Sox finished seventh and last in the AL East.
Either the Sox or Yanks have appeared in every postseason since the strike of 1994 wiped out the playoffs. In eight of the last 18 seasons, both of them made the playoffs. The Yankees missed only once during that time, in 2008. They gave us the best rivalry in sports and two unforgettable ALCS showdowns in 2003-04.
I guess you could say Boston and New York fans have been spoiled. But this year, after nearly half a century, they might battle for last place again.
The Red Sox have missed the postseason three years in a row, the first time that happened in 10 years. Last year, they went 69-93 and finished 26 games behind the Yankees in the AL East. It was Boston's worst winning percentage since that dreadful 100-loss outfit when I was a little kid.
Yes, the Bombers could be looking at another '65, when the bottom fell out. Everything has been going wrong for them since their ignominious sweep at the hands of the Tigers in last year's ALCS.
Alex Rodriguez is out until at least midseason with hip issues and is embroiled in another steroid flap. Curtis Granderson is out for two months with a broken arm. Mark Teixeira could miss the season with a wrist injury. Derek Jeter is expected to start the season on the disabled list with an inflamed ankle. Phil Hughes just went on the DL with a bulging disk in his back.
Michael Pineda, a hot young pitcher the Yanks got from Seattle (for a top catching prospect, Jesus Montero) in a trade before the 2012 season, is still recovering from a torn labrum and isn't expected back until June. Closer Mariano Rivera, who is 43, hasn't pitched since injuring his knee last May.
Rivera, the best closer of all time, has announced that this will be his final season. It's a shame that it will likely be the worst Yankees team he's played on. Not only have the Pintripers not had a losing record since Rivera began his career in 1995, they've never had a winning percentage below .540.
It's small consolation that the Red Sox could be worse. Veteran slugger David Ortiz is out with inflammation in both heels. Mike Napoli, their big free-agent acquisition, has a degenerative hip. There's no guarantee Jacoby Ellsbury will return to his MVP form of two years ago after missing much of last year to injury. The defense isn't very good.
They're hoping that starters Clay Buchholz and Jon Lester will rediscover their past brilliance and revive a terrible pitching staff. There's even hope that John Lackey can still be effective. Ryan Dempster will help, presumably.
Where there used to be high expectations, there is now merely hope in Boston and New York. Ever since the epic 2004 ALCS, we've waited for them to collide in another October classic. We're still waiting.
Last year, there was talk that hiring Bobby Valentine as manager would revive the rivalry. It didn't happen. There was more conflict in the Boston dugout than against the Yanks. It was one and done for old Bobby.
The rivalry seems all but gone, too. Who cares at this point? Where's the hate? Most of the chief antagonists are gone. There's no Jason Varitek to rub his catcher's mitt in A-Rod's mug, no Pedro Martinez to throw Don Zimmer to the ground. No Joe Torre. No Terry Francona.
George Steinbrenner is dead. When's the last time you heard anyone mention the Evil Empire? It's the Red Sox organization that embarrassed itself in the latter days of Francona's regime, which he outlined in his book.
When the Sox and Yanks met for the first time in spring training early this month, there was little fanfare. The Yanks sent only one regular, Brett Gardner. There were no newspaper hordes from the Boston and New York papers.
This year, the writers might very well be sitting through 4-hour games that decide who finishes fourth. People are predicting them to finish together at the bottom for the first time since 1966.
You'll notice I have three of the five AL East teams making the postseason this year, and none of them are from Boston or New York. I feel like calling Brian and telling him, "The Yankees suck!"
But I'm afraid he'll yell back,"Yeah, but your Red Sox suck worse."

Longtime civic leader Adele Coryell Hall, the wife of Hallmark Cards Inc., chairman Donald J. Hall, died Saturday while in Hawaii with her husband.
Hall, 81, was the first woman to serve as president of the Heart of America United Way. She held leadership positions and membership on numerous boards, including the United Negro College Fund, the Points of Light Foundation, American Academy of Pediatrics, Partnership for Children, the Menninger Foundation, George Bush Presidential Library Center, the Library of Congress Trust Fund, Children's Mercy Hospital and the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation. She also served on the boards of the Pembroke Hill School, Salvation Army, Starlight Theatre and the American Red Cross.
See the full list of honors and awards
She and golfer Tom Watson established the Children's Mercy Golf Classic, which raised more than $10 million for the hospital over its 25-year run.
"There are not enough superlatives to describe our grief," said Randall O'Donnell, the president and CEO of Children's Mercy Hospital and Clinics. "Adele Hall was a true champion of Children's Mercy. She and her family have made numerous, significant gifts and she leaves a legacy of generosity and commitment to this hospital and community."
"This is a day of great sorrow," said Sarah F. Rowland, Chair of the Nelson-Atkins Board of Trustees. "We loved Adele dearly, and she and Don have made a profound impact on the museum and the entire community. For us, Adele was a pillar of generosity and support, and we will deeply miss her kind spirit and her leadership."
Kansas City activist Alvin Brooks said her family foundation gave his group its first grant in 1988.
"When you talk about Adele and Don Hall, you talk about civic responsibility, corporate responsibility, philanthropy and you talk about friendship," Brooks said.
She and Donald Hall were to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary this year.
The family asked that in lieu of flowers, contributions be sent to Children's Mercy Hospital, the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, the Pembroke Hill School, The Salvation Army, The United Way of Greater Kansas City or Wayside Waifs. Contact information for these groups is listed here.
Funeral arrangements were pending. Officials said they would be posted at the memorial website.

Dr. Maria Droujkova and Yelena McManaman, authors of a collection of math games for kids
Moebuis Noodles: a collection of math games for kids
Dr. Maria Droujkova (@mariadroujkova) and Yelena McManaman authored the book, Moebuis Noodles, to engage kids with early math concepts. Their inspirations are:
- kids—who have great imaginations and love math wonderlands when presented in a fun way
- the crowdsourcing movement—parents and teachers are on board!
- DYI projects—where there lives endless creativity
Offered under Creative Commons, Moebuis Noodles offers a much needed alternative to the boring and repeatitive early math materials used to reach most schoolkids today.

And thank you for organizing the event! It was wonderful to listen to all the passionate people who believe in the cause of the Open.
This is excellent news and most welcoming for parents looking for math alternatives.
Moebuis is a great way to connect the young students with with early math concepts. It is a wonderful project focused on creating resources that provide rich mathematical experiences for young children.
Congratulations on the successful crowdfunding project. I can see that it has yielded great results and even greater ideas. While education has seen huge improvements in the past years, it is astonishing how even the math education for young children is missing this kind of creative do it yourself spirit! I cannot even start to think how kids in China could benefit from such a system that would support imagination, fun and play. In the west it is almost as if "math kids" are being marginalized by making classes non-favorable. Pitty that there was some disturbing background noise in the video, but thanks for the inspirational insight. However surprised that things are still the way they are, it's never too late to change the system! -Genji
