The concept of "dementia" for ascertaining and addressing cognitive impairment has failed. It is too categorical, exclusive, and arbitrary. Creating a dichotomy between dementia and nondementia ignores the spectrum of cognitive impairment. Converting soft data into hard categories fails to capture the complexity of the common coexistence and probable interaction of cerebrovascular and Alzheimer disease on the moving background of aging. It is time to shift the focus from thresholds to a continuum of cognitive impairment, from the late to the early stages, and from effects to causes.

For immediate release: Dec. 3, 2012
NORTHAMPTON – Last year, Cooley Dickinson Hospital's Laboratory processed more than 875,000 lab tests. These tests are critical because vital diagnostic information can be learned about a patient from a blood test or a tissue biopsy.
Last month, two independent organizations, the AABB (American Association of Blood Banks) and the College of American Pathologists, each announced that Cooley Dickinson Hospital's Laboratory had successfully met or exceeded standards set by these national organizations.
The AABB accreditation demonstrates that Cooley Dickinson's Laboratory staff are collecting, processing, testing, distributing, and administering blood and cell products that comply with AABB standards, Code of Federal Regulations, and other federal guidance documents.
"Cooley Dickinson has sought AABB Accreditation because this program validates and promotes a level of professional and technical expertise that contributes to quality performance and patient safety," said Catherine Reed, director, Laboratory Services.
Of the College of the American Pathologists (CAP) recognition, Lisa Glantz, MD, pathologist, said, CAP accreditation goes above and beyond regulatory compliance to achieve the highest standards of excellence that positively impacts patient safety. Cooley Dickinson is among the more than 7,500 laboratories that meet the standards of the world's most rigorous accreditation program."
During a CAP accreditation process, inspectors examine the past two years' worth of Laboratory's records and quality control procedures. They also review Lab staff qualifications, equipment, facilities, the safety program and safety record, and the overall management of the Lab.
The blood bank and the chemistry, cytology, hematology, histology, microbiology, phlebotomy, serology and urinalysis specialties comprise Cooley Dickinson Hospital's onsite Laboratory.
The accreditations are effective through August 2014.

NC State offers 13-year-old college basketball scholarship
Eighth Grader Jada Peebles commits to the Wolfpack women's basketball team,
No, endorsements from newspapers will turn me away from that candidate they do support. Reporters and TV stations are supposed to be impartial and just report the news with the facts. I have gotten to the point where I read the newspapers from France the British Isles, so it is impartial. I have a problem with biased media, you can tell what paper supports which candidate by just reading the articles. Especially when there are clear stories that should be reported in all newspapers. Trump U, the Clinton Foundation, the violations of National Security by Clinton, and it goes on and on. We need facts to pick the President not speculation, not the FBI who would prosecute what Clinton did if it was anyone else. I have given up on our Government it is to corrupt, everyone scratches each other's back, no matter what the people who elect them want. Plus I don't have faith in the election system, there was a lot of voter fraud in the previous elections. No candidate is going to get 100 percent of the votes from several precincts. Plus some students who were recruited and taken to different poling stations, and got paid $20.00 for every vote for the candidate the driver told them to vote for. Plus polling stations are being hacked. I have no confidence in the election because of all of this.

Don't read this section if you don't want to read my whine-and-moan about a missed flight.
Thursday, November 24, 2005 (Thanksgiving Day)
ExpressJet Airlines dba Continental Express
Flight 2370, CLE-HPN
Embraer ERJ-135
Scheduled Departure: 0745
Scheduled Arrival: 0919
Seat Assignment: 6A (overwing, port side, single seat)
Status: MISSED CHECK-IN
As you can see above, a combination of circumstances led to my first ever missed check-in and subsequent reticketing on a later flight.
On Wednesday afternoon I knew that we already had Winter Storm Warnings issued well in advance for Thursday morning at 4 AM through Friday afternoon. I planned for this by getting my car ready with plenty of gas and gas treatment, making sure that my ice scraper/snow brush was handy, and packing in advance. Unfortunately that was not enough.
After getting up on time, I headed out to my car to find four inches of snow on it. No big deal - snow brush in hand I cleaned everything off and got into my car. Then the trouble started. The roads were slick and everyone was driving at about 20 mph, tops. I got to the highway and it was even worse. People weren't going more than 35 mph and two vehicles skidded off the road in front of me. I realized that I was getting very close to my check-in time, which I thought was a minimum of 20 minutes, so I decided to park in the Airport garage instead of at the train station like I normally do.
I pulled into the Airport and the first (and cheapest) garage was full and closed, so I had no choice but to go around to the hotel parking lot. This means driving out of the airport and around the parking lots on a little-used and poorly maintained road. At a maximum of a 1/2 mile loop, it isn't a huge detour, but if you're already running late it is aggravating.
The hotel lot is $2 more per day than the long-term lot but it was jammed, too, so I ended up having to go all the way around to where I started and head into the short-term lot. At $13/day it is less expensive than the premium off-site lots but more than what I'd like to pay for each of four days away. It seemed I had no choice as I was now coming up on 30 minutes prior to my flight. I managed to get a space on the first level without driving around in circles and I ran into the terminal.
At the time I got in line the clock read 7:15 AM. This is where I made my biggest mistake. I thought that Continental's check-in limit was 20 minutes, not 30 minutes, and when I got up to the desk (which is now all computerized kiosks) I was frustrated by the non-standard "keyboard" that appeared on the screen. I said to the agent who had directed me to the kiosk, "this keyboard is weird." After typing in my confirmation number, the screen said "there is a problem with your check-in."
This is when the fun started. The customer service agent working my kiosk said "You're late." I said, "I'm within 20 minutes," and she repeated "You've missed your flight." Of course I was frustrated (as anyone would be) and I said, "You gotta be kidding me! I confirmed my reservation. I'm here more than 20 minutes beforehand." I really didn't think that merely saying that constituted a but apparently she did.
The agent who had directed me to my kiosk interjected from the side "You're too late." That really set me off, because if there's one thing I hate more than interruption, it's being interrupted by someone who has nothing to contribute when I am already trying to comprehend a difficult situation. I looked at her and said "I'm not talking to you, I'm talking to her, so please don't interrupt me again."
I looked back at the other agent and asked again, "What is the check-in time? I confirmed my reservation and worked hard to get here." By this time, the woman had completely lost her sense of the definition of "customer service." Instead of answering my question, she said I was yelling at her. I then said that I was frustrated because I was trying to get to my grandmother for Thanksgiving. She said she would get me on a later flight, which I didn't argue about, but then she said "I'm working on Thanksgiving, so don't complain to me," and she put her hand out in my face.
That was enough. "What is your name? I'm going to complain about this." So she tells me her name and then she says she's going to write me up as a bad customer. At that point I asked for her manager and she called the manager over.
Now I was speaking with the manager, who was working on my itinerary and I was crying because this supposed Customer Service agent was antagonizing me. I told the manager what happened and the CSA interrupted her and said I had been screaming at her. I said to the manager, "I haven't raised my voice above what I'm doing now. This is ridiculous. Now she's interrupting our conversation." The manager seemed to understand me better but I was still very upset because of the threat to write me up as a bad customer. Luckily I got the manager's name as well so that I could write in reference to both of them.
I got my boarding pass for a new flight and at that time the nasty CSA was typing something in the computer so I was confused again. I stood there, waiting, and finally I said, "When can I go?" The manager was still there and she finally told me I had everything I needed and that I could go wait for my flight.
I suppose I should be thankful that I got on another flight at all, and that it wasn't a next-day or much later than four hours... But I'm still steaming that there was absolutely no understanding or attempt to explain things when I was obviously confused and frustrated. I'm writing my complaint letter tomorrow.
At least I got to move my car to the free rapid transit lot.

How to Advise a Friend Who's Considering Proposing Marriage
Reader Comments (22)
I love this webcomic series, I get a laugh out of every one.
Drat! Why didn't I think about this "Rubik's Cube" before I married my wife?!
As always hilarious!
The Rubik's Cube idea is awesome. Too bad I could never finish it, so I couldn't write "marry me" on the solved pieces... Anyone got a solved Rubik so I can cheat?
nice one again :P
but now i wonder... how did you propose?
Nameless one: Just don't buy your new wife an "Operation" game for her first post-marriage Valentine's Day gift. It will not go down well. I know from sad, sad experience.
Wow, that guys never getting married...... probably for the best.
"Marry me" on a Rubik's Cube? Nice. THAT'S how you tell someone loves you - seeing how long they can handle the cube until they chuck it at your head.
A test of intelligence to prove that she's worthy - a brilliant idea!
Why not do it via Hangman or reprogram a Tetris game? Or better yet - why not do a city wide scavenger hunt of near impossible proportions?
A buddy of mine did that scavenger hunt thing to propose, he was supposedly at work but said she could text him if she had trouble. Really he and the ring were the last things on the hunt, but with his phone on vibrate he could respond to her texts and keep up the ruse of being out of the house... he also had her taking pictures of herself on the hunt so they have record of her making "what the f**k" faces at some of his hidden poems and joke items. It was actually rather charming.
Ahahahahahah, that first panel is AMAZING!
Um, what if someone else finds the ring? And then says "I do"?
You had me until "more unique"
I sure hope this one isn't ruining the surprise for some unsuspecting gal!
Oh man, I dig the creativity but a lot of those date or proposal ideas are just bad. Also, I am terrible at hunts and puzzles and games, so I would just never get married.
I feel the more succinct route of "Just give all your money to someone you hate and shoot yourself in the head now," works just as well...
O.K. Its official I have dibs on the Rubik's Cube idea.
the rubic cube idea is epic. maybe I need to get married again.
As someone who has really used a scrambled cube once to send a romantic message, I am starting to worry if Scott is reading my mind.
You know, my husband proposed to me with a series of puzzles (not a rubik's cube, but he did include a nonogram, a rebus, and several slightly more esoteric puzzles). The fact that he spent the hours to write the puzzles is still one of the most flattering things I've ever seen done for a proposal -- not to mention, they were a lot of fun to solve! The ring was inside a Japanese puzzle box, too, though by that time I was pretty sure I knew what was going on, and had trouble opening it because my hands were shaking from nerves/excitement, heh.
So, for you doubters out there, just a little bit of anecdata that this sort of thing CAN go over really well.
@ gus
just rearrange the stickers!
hahaha! pretty funny.
reminds me that it should be a sarcastic strip! i love the sarcasm.
The Rubik's Cube thing was actually done but better, with a custom cube that opens up, and there was a ring inside.

Thank you to the 17 partners that made the third
Mingo Basin Partnership proposal possible.
'Tis the season to get together with family and friends … even those who we may not always see eye to eye with; in a similar vein, that is what NAWCA is about. The North American Conservation Wetlands Act, also known as NAWCA, was passed in 1989 to get people to come together. This act was sponsored to help people work together in a collaborated effort to enhance, restore, and manage our wetland resources better.
It is a given that when you get multiple individuals or groups together there will be a differing of opinion. However, if there is a common goal and a general direction that all the parties can agree upon, then progress can be made. Currently, the Mingo Basin Partnership is made up of 17 different groups or organizations that are invested in improving wetlands in our neck of the woods.
The work done on Duck Creek over the past two years was partially funded by NAWCA money after our first Mingo Basin Partnership proposal was approved in 2009.
Last year we took turns with Ducks Unlimited and Mingo NWR as they submitted the second Mingo Basin Partnership proposal. This proposal addressed replacing the main outlet to Mingo and the rest of the basin with a more efficient water control structure, similar to the one along Ditch 1/111 and Pool 1. Although this project was approved earlier on this year, the uncertainty of the federal budget has delayed the development of the project's final timeline. However, it looks like we should see some progress in the next couple of months.
Despite the federal uncertainty, the planning process has continued to move forward. This summer the ball was back in our court, and MDC submitted the third Mingo Basin Partnership proposal to NAWCA. This third proposal focused on wetland enhancement and restoration work on the new properties on the east side of Duck Creek near Field 1 and the fish ponds tract. Work was also proposed to be done in pools 2 and 3 to minimize the spoil piles along the boat-lanes for more efficient water management on and off the trees. At the beginning of this month, the North American Wetlands Conservation Council met and recommended that this third proposal be moved forward. Like the second proposal, we will have to wait and see how the federal budget shakes out over the next few months to officially move forward.
If all goes as planned, Mingo NWR will have one more turn to focus on hydrologic connections between pools and replacing worn out water control structures. This collaborative work between agencies and across years benefits the whole Mingo Basin since the both the conservation area and wildlife refuge are attached at the hip. By being able to collectively manage our water better and restore the historic wetland drainages the basin's bottomland habitats will benefit. If we can provide better habitat, waterfowl and other wetland critters will respond, and this will in turn add value to our public use for years to come.
Much like Christmas is a time when folks come near and far to gather around the table, NAWCA provides an opportunity for us to reach out and work together with those around us to benefit the wetlands we care about. A special "thank you" goes out to all of our partners and our users for making this venture possible. With this month's approval, we continue to make progress with Mingo Basin's renovation.
Until the New Year, take care and travel safe this holiday season.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) - At the Purple Porpoise, a popular restaurant across the street from The Swamp, two guys drank beer at the bar while a Florida student, Kathleen Powell, sat a few seats down with her head buried in a book.
Powell was the waitress.
"Normally on a football Saturday, you can't get a table in here," she said, shrugging as she looked at 35 wooden tables and booths, all empty. "Today, it's different."
Such was life Saturday in Gainesville, where one of the weekend's biggest games - No. 2 Florida vs. No. 8 Tennessee - was supposed to take place. Gainesville wasn't the only college-football ghost town.
From Norman to Madison, and from Albuquerque to Tallahassee, stadiums were dark as all major colleges postponed or canceled games in the wake of Tuesday's terrorist tragedies in New York and Washington.
"It's real eerie around here," said Don Fitch of Ann Arbor, Mich., where the No. 20 Michigan Wolverines were supposed to play Western Michigan.
Plans all around the country changed, as the absence of college football - a tradition-filled rite of passage on any autumn Saturday - left a void in America's schedule.
Fitch tried to grab a tee time at an Ann Arbor golf course.
At Ohio State, 15,000 fans - about 85,000 fewer than normal - filed into Ohio Stadium to pay tribute to the country's dead and missing.
In Gainesville, Florida students Cody Montgomery, Ashley Herrington and Caroline Bokor had planned to tailgate, then walk across the street to the game.
"But I guess we'll go get lunch, then maybe go to the beach," Montgomery said.
Among those without many choices were Tennessee freshman Keith Brakebill. At 3:30 p.m. sharp - the time kickoff was supposed to take place - Brakebill was sitting in his seat in section 42 at The Swamp, wearing an orange Volunteers jersey and cap.
A low-flying bird whizzed past, near the 30-year line. A man and woman stretched on the sidelines after running stadium steps. But no football.
"We got in the car on Thursday, and mostly listened to CDs on the way down," Brakebill said. "By the time we found out, it was too late to turn back. I figured I might as well come to the stadium, just to say I've been here."
For an actual football game, the only option in the entire state of Florida was at tiny Jacksonville University, where the Division I-AA Dolphins defeated Moorehead State 39-27.
Before the Jacksonville game, the teams and about 1,500 fans observed a moment of silence, followed by the playing of taps, the singing of "God Bless America" and the national anthem.
Many in attendance said it felt good to see a game.
"I've been cooped up for two or three days, emotions have run high," said Jack Leonard, who had planned to go Tallahassee to watch No. 6 Florida State play No. 10 Georgia Tech. "I think it's time to play the game. This will take things off the minds of a lot of people."
In Manhattan, Kan. - nicknamed The Little Apple - No. 12 Kansas State was supposed to play Louisiana Tech.
The sidewalks were nearly empty near the stadium. Outside the Wildcat Souvenir Shop sat a big sign that screamed, "Yes, We're Open," but the doors were locked.
In Evanston, Ill., the town where Northwestern was supposed to play Navy, the parking lot across from Ryan Field was empty. A Jeep and a small sedan were going in circles around the lot, their occupants taking advantage of the open space to learn how to drive.
The sidewalks and concourses around the stadium were empty, too, except for 70-year-old Ray Zarski, who was walking his dog, Molly.
"It's very weird," said Zarski, who wore a Northwestern hat. "There's usually a lot of excitement when there's a game."
Flags flew at half-staff in front of fraternity and sorority houses near rainsoaked Memorial Stadium, where defending national champion Oklahoma was supposed to play Tulsa.
The display windows at a souvenir shop overflowed with OU hats, T-shirts, sweat shirts and other goods. Inside, owner Grover Ozmun rearranged a few shirts in his empty store.
Ozmun had mixed feelings about the decision to postpone.
"The business side of me says yes, the psyche says no, it's not time to play football," Ozmun said. "I don't think anybody wants to play football while they're looking for bodies."
At State Street Brats in Madison, Wis., manager Ross Johnson showed the movie "Patton," hoping to lure a few patrons into a restaurant that would have been overflowing had Wisconsin's game against Western Kentucky been played.
"I thought it would be inspirational," Johnson said.
The cancellations and postponements were felt in more than just the traditional football hotbeds.
This is arguably the biggest pigskin weekend of the year in Albuquerque, where New Mexico State and New Mexico were set to renew their annual rivalry Saturday.
The game may have been called off, but some habits are hard to break.
Lobos fan Bill Duffy and about 30 friends gathered in the parking lot outside empty University Stadium, had a few drinks and grilled their traditional green chili hamburgers.
"We just thought it would be a good time to get friends together and put this week behind us," Duffy said.

Skip to comments.Romney to Reid: I have paid taxes every year and a lot of taxes (Watch Video)
Posted on 08/03/2012 2:49:07 PM PDT by SeekAndFind
Love the bit at the end here about how this smear exposes Obama's above-the-fray shtick as the cynical Hopenchange branding nonsense that it is. I also like the added emphasis on "a lot of taxes," although Think Progress or TPM or whoever is no doubt working up a post right now explaining why the millions he's paid over the years don't really qualify as "a lot."
Serious question: Should HuffPo have published Reid's initial accusation about the mysterious Bain investor who allegedly called him about Romney? WaPo wonders:
In this case, the dissemination of Reids words is responsible, compulsory. It would be a shame, after all, if Reids constituents passed ignorant of the evidentiary standards to which he subjects his mudslinging...
In a world rigged by the Erik Wemple Blog, the legal system would be prejudiced in the opposite direction: Publications that failed to publish any and all false and defamatory charges made by public officials would be subject to criminal and civil liability. Professor Clay Calvert, the director of the Marion B. Brechner First Amendment Project at the University of Florida, says, The real story is the fact that Reid made the allegation in the first place. The second story is whether the allegation is true.
Yeah, I agree, albeit with misgivings. Reid's being clever here in using his political stature to push this smear out: "Some anonymous guy told me Romney doesn't pay his taxes" isn't a newsworthy story, but "some anonymous guy told me Romney doesn't pay his taxes, says Senate majority leader" assuredly is. If one of the most powerful Democrats in the country is being this much of a cretin, I want to know about it — even though publicizing his cretinism inadvertently spreads the allegation of Romney's tax evasion. I think HuffPo had to run with it, even if spreading the allegation was their goal.
Senator Reid must certainly come forth with the identity of "some anonymous guy" who obviously works for the IRS and is feloniously releasing Romney's tax information.
Romney has been on a plan to run for president since 2006....when he first started organizing for the 2007/2008 primary season.
Does any sane person think he did anything improper on his taxes since then?
What we need is a simple agreement.
If Romney has paid taxes in any one of the past ten years then Reid agrees to resign from the senate and name his source.
Then Romney should agree to prove that he has paid taxes in at least one of the past ten years.
This strikes me as fair. And, of course, if Reid's source is the IRS, then Reid needs to go to prison as well as resign.
No one gave him this info, it is made up from whole cloth. Even if they trot someone out as a fall guy, I won't believe it.
The charge to me seems silly and bush league for a U.S. Senator.
Is the Senator a victim of dementia?
W fell into this trap and was down to showing dental records from his National Guard posting in AL. Screw the Dems and the hrses they rode in on.
The latest that Romney would have cheated on his taxes would have been 2001, after that he entered the political arena and would have been under scrutiny.
No, I honestly believe Romney probably didn't cheat on his taxes. He's probably played it straight.
How would someone at Bain know if Romney didn't pay his taxes?
If Romney didn't pay the the taxes he owed the IRS would be on his ass. If he paid more than the taxes he owed I don't want his ignorant ass as President
How desperate must they be to lead with a lie so easily disproved
In all serious I believe the Democrat party has helped us more in this election then we have helped ourselves.
Bain, "You didn't build that, Chick-Fil-A and now this.
See ya at the polls liberals!!
It's not unknown for an accountant at a company like Bain to confer with Romney's tax guy. The degree of intricacy for senior level compensation almost requires it. It is possible that a high level employee or officer in the compensation, finance or tax section of Bain might be privy to details about Romney's filing.
See ya at the polls liberals!!
You won't see them as they won't turnout...hope and change had it's 15 minutes of fame. Now Obama will go down as the worst president in modern history.
All history
No, I honestly believe Romney probably didnt cheat on his taxes. Hes probably played it straight."
Mitt Romney's entrance into politics dates way back to 1994 when he ran for the U.S. Senate in Massachusetts against Ted Kennedy, who we all know would have used any hint of financial scandal against Mitt, but none existed.
Your conclusion is correct. The fact is Gov. Romney is squeaky clean in his personal life and finances concerning income taxes.
Harry Reid is baiting Romney to release his tax records so that Obama's jackals can pore through them and find some obscure, albeit legal, tax shelter Romney applied to preserve wealth and security for his family. An uninformed public, especially Obama voters, can be easily bamboozled into believing intricate tax law is somehow shady or illegal. It makes no difference to Obama or Reid that the tax filings are legal and proper, only the spin is important for their sordid purposes.
Do I think Romney is a tax cheat? No. Do I think he is getting killed on the issue. Yes! Look, let's turn it around if Obama was withholding his tax returns this place would be In full meltdown. The fact is the longer the story festers the more infected it gets. Reid is a douche but he kept the story going. Romney is getting murdered for this.
I was looking at spending in election. Some here think WI, MI, and PN are in play. Romney is spending in FL, OH, VA, CO, NV, NH ,iA and NC and that is it. We are less than 100 days out. Hell early voting starts in 70. If this is where you expect election to be won then you are committing political malpractice besides not releasing returns and ending this stuff. Why?
If you run the election in those states only you admit the score is 247-191 Obama. This means 23 more and Obama wins. Polling shows Obama with solid to close leads in above states except NC.
What is my point? This is the worst run campaign I have ever seen! Everyday Romney or his staff look
Like they are flailing and caught off guard, when a lot of this same stuff came up in primary. Obviously I am not optimistic. I just hope he doesn't destroy down party elections too. I am not real smart but follow the money is easy. If you do not try to
Expand the field Mr. Romney you have put Obama back
In WH for another term. Get the taxes out and go on offense. Playing defense at the goal line is never good strategy.
Look where 0bama and cabal are going. There's your key state.
according to his 2010 return he has paid taxes.
Reid can step down now.
I see it differently. For starters, I don't have cable...so I have to seek out news....and I have a pretty good feel for how much of a story reaches people who don't seek out news/don't pay attention.
I haven't heard much about this story - other than conservative talk radio.
Now, today, Romney was asked about this...and in his answer, he implicated Obama (by name) in these false accusations, and called Obama out for not running an issues based, high brow campaign...which Obama had promised in a phone call to Romney.
What am I getting at? We're 90 days out, and O is already being forced to use his biggest 'scandals'...and he is being called out for diving into the mud.
This will be all but forgotten (except at DU) BEFORE the convention. The Olympics are going on...nobody is paying attention. The starting gun hasn't gone off, O has blown his stash on fruitless Bain ads...and his campaign is so cash poor, it now has to trot out Harry with a laughable accusation.
As to why Romney hasn't released the returns: I imagine his taxes are very complex, and take advantage of a large number of legal tax breaks. What do you think the party that seeks out the stupid demographic would do with that type of information? Every little tax shelter would become a new mini-scandal...putting Romney on the defensive every week until the election.
Romney may also be waiting for them to 'leak' out....so he can publicly demand an investigation into a corrupt executive branch.
I say keep holding out - the story doesn't have legs, and it will be 'old news' by the time people start paying attention.
Reid is so mobbed up that he's a walking, talking blackmail machine. Axlerod and Rhambo could order him to tar and feather himself and walk naked down Pennsylvania Ave and he would do so instantly.
Read Freeper Fedora's excellent investigative thread to understand this human slimeball, and why he is willing to be a tool: he has NO CHOICE.
Mr. Cleanfaces Dirty Laundry: Harry Reids Mob Money. (Original FReeper research 01/20/2006 by Fedora)
Reid Got $1.1M In Shady NV Land Deals
Ok, that makes sense. I'd be willing to bet that he complied to the letter of the tax law based on his tax accountant's advice.
Probably what Reid is harping on is that a couple of years he (Romney) may or may not have paid anything, or his losses offset his gains, etc., all according to the tax code. They want ammo to use as talking points because Obama's record is so abysmal
The wealthy, Senators after all, have different rules that they are beholden to than the little guy. After all, Nancy Pelosi made stock market profits on insider knowledge, a crime that sent Martha Stewart to prison.
I do not begrudge Romney at all for taking advantage of the tax laws to pay what he owed. As he said, I'm sure he has payed plenty.
We can agree to disagree. The story coupled with his tax plan that got eviscerated I think will be around. It still doesn't change the fact of how the campaign is being run.

LONDON: Does being nice and responsive increase sexual desire in her? Do men perceive responsive women as more attractive and vice versa? The answers lie in slowing down if the goal is to instil sexual desire.
People often say that they seek a partner that is "responsive to their needs" and that such a partner would arouse their sexual interest.
To find the answers, researchers looked at three studies to observe people's perceptions of responsiveness.
In the first study, they found that men who perceived female partners as more responsive also perceived them as more feminine and more attractive.
However, women's perceptions of partner responsiveness were marginally and negatively associated with perceptions of partner attractiveness.
Participants in the second study were asked to interact with a responsive or non-responsive individual of the opposite sex.
Men who interacted with a responsive female individual perceived her as more feminine and as more sexually attractive.
Women, however, were more cautious than men when interpreting a stranger's expressions of responsiveness and their perceptions of the stranger.
In the final study, heightened sexual arousal was linked to both increased perception of partner attractiveness and greater desire for a long-term relationship with that partner.
"Some women feel uncomfortable about a new acquaintance who seems to want to be close. Such feelings may impair sexual attraction to this responsive stranger," said lead researcher Gurit Birnbaum from the Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) Herzliya, Israel.
Other women may perceive a responsive stranger as warm and caring and therefore as a desirable long-term partner.
Some women may perceive such person as inappropriately nice and trying to obtain sexual favours.
"Yet, responsiveness may be one of those initial 'sparks' necessary to fuel sexual desire and land a second date," Birnbaum advised in the study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.

Philadelphia recently lost one of Santa's least conspicuous helpers. Ray Daub, the man whose vision became the Dickens Christmas Village display at the Macy's in Center City, died the day after Thanksgiving, the same day that his crowning achievement opened to the public for the 2012 holiday season.
A bearded, curmudgeonly, chain-smoking craftsman, Ray inspired wonder in the masses but stayed shrouded in the shadows. It's unlikely that you've seen his name in print or his face on TV since 2005. That was the 20th anniversary of his three-quarter-scale, walk-through presentation of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, and its last year at its original location in the Strawbridge & Clothier department store at Eighth and Market Streets (now home to The Inquirer).

Move over Jamie Oliver - Kian Egan reveals he wants his own cookery show
Published 27/12/2012 | 14:56
WESTLIFE'S Kian Egan has revealed he would love the opportunity to host his own cookery TV show.
The singer - who lives with his former Hollyoaks star wife Jodi Albert and one-year-old son Koa - has been doing a lot of TV presenting since Westlife split and would love to combine his new career with his love of cooking.
Kian revealed: "I've always been the chef in our house, it's something I really enjoy doing. I love the satisfaction of cooking a nice meal for people.
"I've talked about a food show to quite a few people - any kind of food show that comes up I'd love to be a part of it.
"I'm experimental, I get out my cook books and learn bits and pieces here and there, and then I won't look at a cook book for six months and I'll be putting the ingredients that I've learned about together. My weekly shop starts to expand and get a bit more exotic, rather than just the bog standard things I used to cook a few years ago."
Kian, who returns shortly on the 'Voice of Ireland' judging panel, has already ruled out a solo singing career, following the break up of Westlife earlier this summer.
"I think the idea of going solo is a huge amount of pressure to get it all right, and coming out of a band that's been so successful, I think it's going to be a huge pressure for any of us to try and release solo music and make it as big and successful," the Sligo based star has said.
His friend and former band member Nicky Byrne, has also expressed an interest in getting into TV work - and recently competed in the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing, as well as taking part in the Christmas Day RTE special 'The School Around the Corner' with Ray D'Arcy.

LONDON (AP) - Princess Diana did not want a divorce, but her marriage to Prince Charles never stood a chance because of outside interference, former royal butler Paul Burrell was quoted as saying Saturday.
In his latest revelations to the Daily Mirror newspaper, the man Diana called "rock" said former Conservative Prime Minister John Major and the former Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey were among those who "interfered" in the royal couple's turbulent relationship.
"No marriage could survive that level of interference," the former butler, who has sold his story for a reported $620,000 is quoted as saying.
"Diana never wanted a divorce. It was thrust upon her. She tried so hard for it not to happen. But in the end her marriage was taken away from her. The princess wasn't happy so many others were deciding the fate of her marriage."
Major's office said the former prime minister only offered advice when it was requested from either the prince or princess. "Any suggestion beyond that is simply absurd," it said in a statement.
Britain's Press Association quoted an unidentified source close to Carey as saying his relationship with the royal family was a private matter.
Burrell was last week acquitted of stealing more than 300 items from the princess and other members of the royal family. He was cleared after Queen Elizabeth II confirmed the butler had informed her he had taken some of Diana's personal papers for safekeeping.
During Burrell's trial, the jury heard police found a letter Diana wrote in 1993 to Major thanking him for his "care and sensitivity" after she and Prince Charles separated.
In the latest "What the Butler Saw" interview, Burrell claims a rift between the couple was widened by negative media coverage, and a feud between rival factions in the royal household.
"There was a rift, but there was no war of the Waleses," Burrell was quoted as saying. "The war was between the rival factions who were running the machine beneath them. The prince and princess didn't know some of the things there were going on. They were puppets being governed by their own servants."
The constant drip of rumor and gossip ate away at their relationship, Burrell said. "It was impossible for them to be around each other. Diana cried an ocean of tears. She was very emotional at that time and Charles would just close down."
In a 1995 television interview, Diana described how her fairy-tale marriage to Prince Charles ended because he was in love with another woman, Camilla Parker Bowles.
"I desperately wanted it to work. I desperately loved my husband," she told the British Broadcasting Corp. in an interview that simmered with emotion.
She disclosed that Charles asked for the separation, which was announced in December 1992 and said she didn't want a divorce, but conceded "clarity in the situation" was needed. Their 15-year marriage ended in 1996 with the issuing of a divorce decree.

Real pain dulled in virtual worlds
February 24, 2004
Fantasy worlds created by virtual reality have been shown to provide a novel form of relief to patients suffering from intractable pain.
Dr Hunter Hoffman, research fellow at the Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, has tested his virtual worlds on victims of burns injuries who suffer excruciating pain during their daily dressing changes which conventional drug therapy fails to control.

TOTTENHAM, Ont. - Environment Canada confirms that a low intensity tornado struck a rural area near Tottenham, Ont., north of Toronto on Tuesday afternoon.
Environment Canada says its survey teams have rated the tornado as an EF-1 with maximum winds between 135 and 175 km/h.
"We had a team go out last night (Tuesday) to do a preliminary investigation and that's how we got the EF-1 reading," said meteorologist Kelly Hobelman.
She said a larger team was to check the area in the morning to determine the exact length of the tornado`s path, adding that it appeared the path could exceed 10 kilometres.
"We had damage reports of a house which had a garage damaged and part of their roof damaged as well and a barn was damaged," she said.
"We also heard of a horse fatality in the barn."
Emergency Management Ontario said there were no reports of injuries.
Some roads in the area were closed due to the severe weather and residents were asked to keep an eye out for downed trees and hydro wires.
Environment Canada was also checking reports that another tornado may have struck near Casselman, just west of Hawkesbury, Ont., on the Quebec border.
"We did receive a report of a funnel cloud near Casselman in the afternoon or early evening, but we did not have any reports of it touching down." said Hobelman.
The Tottenham tornado comes a week after a stronger EF-2 tornado struck nearby Angus, injuring three people and damaging more than 100 homes.
Hobelman said the two tornadoes hitting the same area was a coincidence and it is not uncommon to see tornadoes in the Windsor-to-London-to-Barrie corridor.
"All of southern Ontario stretching from Windsor and all the way east towards Ottawa is one of our Canadian tornado alleys," she said.

Chaz Bono has heard it all from the naysayers. But it's the fans, he says, who have the most impact on him.
"My critics don't make me work harder. The support from the fans in response to the critics has really made me work harder," the Dancing with the Stars contestant, 42, tells PEOPLE.
And work hard, he has indeed – in fact, he's exhausted.
"I've never worked this hard physically before," he says. His dance partner, Lacey Schwimmer, tells him: "I remember when you first came in, you were like, 'Oh, I work out. I go on the elliptical. I lift weights.' And then you're sitting here with a towel over your head, like panting."
Bono says "everybody's a threat" on the show at this point, and he just wants to continue showing what he can do.
"It's not a matter of proving anything," he says. "I just want to stick around, cause I'm having such a good time."

New Account of North Korea's Capture of USS Pueblo Digs Deep
When former Los Angeles Times reporter Jack Cheevers decided to write the most complete account of North Korea's capture of the U.S. spy ship USS Pueblo in international waters in 1968 and the 11-month detention of its crew, he knew there was one major question that no-one had been able to answer: Why did North Korea do it?
As part of his research he did about the only thing he could, and wrote to then-North Korean leader Kim Jong Il in 2002 to request an interview. (He addressed his letter "Dear Leader Kim Jong Il," care of Pyongyang's Central Post Office). Mr. Kim's father, Kim Il Sung, ran the country when the Pueblo was seized, but died in 1994.
Several weeks later he got an encouraging reply.
It came from North Korea's mission at the United Nations in New York, asking for more details about the book project. Mr. Cheevers exchanged a few more emails with the official before suggesting dinner in Los Angeles' Koreatown the next time he passed through on his way back to Pyongyang.
Shortly afterwards, relations between the U.S. and North Korea nosedived as Washington accused Pyongyang of enriching uranium to produce nuclear weapons. Mr. Cheevers never got a reply from the official again.
Despite that major unanswered question, Mr. Cheevers' "Act of War" is released this week, a deep, gripping narrative of the Pueblo story, the violent captivity of the crew, and their eventual release and treatment after returning home to the U.S.
Some of the most harrowing details are of how the crew were tortured, starved, threatened with execution, and deprived of sleep and adequate heat over the course of 11 months before the U.S. government took the strategy of agreeing to sign an apology demanded by the North Koreans but then immediately repudiating it.
Mr. Cheevers conducted multiple extended interviews over a decade with several of the crewmen, including Capt. Lloyd M. Bucher, as well as U.S. officials involved in the case.
"A quartermaster, Charlie Law, talked about a prison guard beating him so ferociously with a piece of wood like a tree branch that it broke in half, then broke in half again, and then broke in half a third time. With the remaining jagged fragment the guard stabbed Law in the ear. I honestly don't know how the crewmen survived some of the violence that was inflicted on them," Mr. Cheevers said in an email interview.
Mr. Cheevers was able to add new details to the story after using the Freedom of Information Act to declassify many documents from the Navy, Central Intelligence Agency, State Department, and National Security Agency.
The story tells of how the crew were forced to sign multiple confessions scripted by their captors, similar to what is assumed in the case of the 85-year-old American currently detained in North Korea, Merrill Newman. Mr. Bucher initially refused to sign a confession and apology but agreed when his captors threatened to start shooting the crew of the ship. As well as confessions, the North Koreans staged press conferences with scripted dialogue to maximize the captives' propaganda value.
The book also details how the U.S. Navy sent out the Pueblo ill-equipped to repel a North Korean assault or dispose of documents and sensitive machinery on board, and offered no support once the boat was seized. It carries the story through the inquiry into the incident after the crew were freed and the eventual move by the U.S. government to reverse a decision not to give the crew prisoner-of-war medals.
The Pueblo remains on display in North Korea, where it was moved this year from the Taedong River in Pyongyang to a new war museum. It continues to serve as part of the North Korean narrative of a country under siege from an oppressive foreign power.
"Act of War" goes on sale on Tuesday.

WASHINGTON — Citing danger to the national economy, the Bush administration came to the rescue of the U.S. auto industry Friday, offering $17.4 billion in emergency loans in exchange for concessions from the deeply troubled carmakers and their workers.
At the same time, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said Congress should authorize the use of the second $350 billion from the financial rescue fund that it approved in October to rescue huge financial institutions. Tapping the fund for the auto industry basically exhausts the first half of the $700 billion total, he said.
President Bush said, "Allowing the auto companies to collapse is not a responsible course of action." Bankruptcy, he said, would deal "an unacceptably painful blow to hardworking Americans" across the economy.
One official said $13.4 billion of the money would be available this month and next, $9.4 billion for General Motors Corp. and $4 billion for Chrysler LLC. Both companies have said they soon might be unable to pay their bills without federal help. Ford Motor Co. has said it does not need immediate help.
Bush said the rescue package demanded concessions similar to those outlined in a bailout plan that was approved by the House but rejected by the Senate a week ago. It would give the automakers three months to come up with restructuring plans to become viable companies.
If they fail to produce a plan by March 31, the automakers will be required to repay the loans, which they would find very difficult.
"The time to make hard decisions to become viable is now, or the only option will be bankruptcy," Bush said. "The automakers and unions must understand what is at stake and make hard decisions necessary to reform."
"The City of Detroit is grateful to President Bush for his support and making money immediately available for our automakers now and again next month. ... While the immediate funding is certainly good news and a step in the right direction, it is not nearly enough to jumpstart America's economy. We look forward to continuing our advocacy on behalf of Detroit and the auto industry." -- Democratic Detroit Mayor Kenneth Cockrel Jr.
"While I regret that the automobile manufacturers are in their current, troubled state, exacerbated by our current credit crisis, it is clear that the only way they will survive is with the assistance of a federal loan. ... I hope this will help our nation's auto industry survive and eventually prosper." -- Republican U.S. Rep. Vernon Ehlers of Grand Rapids
"While I applaud President Bush's decision to provide short term loans to the domestic automakers, I have strong concerns about some of the conditions that were placed on these loans. We all want to see the Big 3 restructure and be competitive in the future, but it is irresponsible during a time of economic crisis for the White House to insist that workers take further wage cuts on top of the historic concessions they have already made." -- Democratic U.S. Rep. John Dingell of Dearborn
He said the companies' workers should agree to wage and work rules that are competitive with foreign automakers by the end of next year.
And he called for elimination of a "jobs bank" program -- negotiated by the United Auto Workers and the companies -- under which laid-off workers receive unemployment benefits and supplemental pay from their companies for 48 weeks. If they remain laid off beyond that, they move to a jobs bank in which the company provides about 95% of their pay and benefits. Until the most recent contract, people could remain in the jobs bank for years. Early this month, the UAW agreed to suspend the program.
Bush's plan is designed to keep the auto industry running in the short term, passing the longer-range problem on to the incoming administration of President-elect Barack Obama.
Paulson said that with the help for the carmakers, the government will have allocated the first half of the largest government bailout program in history.
He said he was confident that the Treasury Department, Federal Reserve and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. have the resources to address a significant market crisis if one should occur before Congress approves the use of the second half of the rescue fund.
Paulson said he would discuss the process with congressional leaders and Obama's transition team "in the near future."
The White House package is the lifeline desperately sought by U.S. automakers, who warned they were running out of money as the economy fell deeper into recession, car loans became scarce and consumers stopped shopping for cars.
The carmakers have announced extended holiday shutdowns. Chrysler is closing all 30 of its North American manufacturing plants for four weeks because of slumping sales; Ford will shut 10 North American assembly plants for an extra week in January, and General Motors will temporarily close 20 factories -- many for the entire month of January -- to cut vehicle production.
• Automakers will get $13.4 billion in short-term financing from the Troubled Asset Relief Program, with an additional $4 billion to be made available in February, contingent on drawing down the second portion of the TARP funds.
• Auto companies must use the money to become financially viable.
• If a company has not become financially viable by March 31, 2009, its loan will be called and all funds returned to Treasury.
• Auto companies must accept limits on executive compensation and eliminate perks such as corporate jets.
• Debts owed to the government would outrank other debts.
• Auto companies must allow the government to examine their books and records.
• The government has the power to block transactions of $100 million or more.
• Auto companies must comply with applicable federal fuel efficiency and emissions requirements.
Bush said the auto manufactures have faced serious challenges for many years: burdensome costs, a shrinking share of the market and plunging profits. "In recent months, the global financial crisis has made these challenges even more severe," he said.
The president said that on the one hand, the government has a responsibility not to undermine the private enterprise system, yet on the other hand, it must safeguard the broader health and stability of the U.S. economy.
"If we were to allow the free market to take its course now, it would almost certainly lead to disorderly bankruptcy and liquidation for the automakers," he said.
"Under ordinary economic circumstances, I would say this is the price that failed companies must pay," the president said. "And I would not favor intervening to prevent the automakers from going out of business. But these are not ordinary circumstances.
"In the midst of a financial crisis and a recession, allowing the U.S. auto industry to collapse is not a responsible course of action."
Chrysler CEO Bob Nardelli thanked the administration for its help.
In a statement Friday morning, Nardelli said the initial injection of capital will help the company get through its cash crisis and help eventually return to profitability. He said Chrysler was committed to meeting the conditions set by Bush in exchange for the money.
Ford President and CEO Alan Mulally said his company would not seek the short-term financial assistance but predicted the aid would stabilize the industry.
"The U.S. auto industry is highly interdependent, and a failure of one of our competitors would have a ripple effect that could jeopardize millions of jobs and further damage the already weakened U.S. economy," Mulally said.
General Motors said the short-term loans would help preserve jobs and "lead to a leaner, stronger General Motors."
"We know we have much work in front of us to accomplish our plan. It is our intention to continue to be transparent as we execute our plan, and we will provide regular updates on our progress," the automaker said.

Linux-Kongress: Linux Foundation Declares OS X a Luxury Jail
As a director of the Linux Foundation and a Linux SCSI developer, James Bottomley opened the Linux-Kongress in Hamburg, Germany this week with a keynote investigating the commonalities and differences among the various Open Source operating systems. He describes Linux as the liveliest variant among them.
The British developer didn't mince words. In a short historical rundown he described Linux as the UNIX derivative long awaited by higher educational institutions and private developers outside the U.S. in that they could avoid the lengthy legal battles of the 1980s and early 1990s. A series of these battles involved parties arguing over when and how they could use BSD derivatives as open source.
Bottomley shot right in on BSD by quoting engineering director Jordan Hubbard's assertion that FreeBSD is the favorite Open Source desktop. Naturally Hubbard, who is with Apple, meant the Mac OS X. Rather than challenge him on that point, Bottomley instead likened the OS X to a luxury jail and that Microsoft users are clearly finding themselves in one with dirty toilets in comparison. Mac users, he says, can't even see the cell bars for the plasma screens surrounding them. He emphasized that Apple might participate in Open Source, but that it gives little in return and doesn't disclose many of its components.
Bottomley claims that Linux is a different story altogether and differentiates itself from the other systems in many ways. By his assessment many projects define themselves based on a series of abstract values, whereas Linux relies mainly on the technical competence of its developers and the maturity of its code. The underlying motivation of Linux isn't even the determining factor as long as the code patches are clearly visible to maintainers from a technical perspective. Bottomley claims that this "disparate value" approach is what makes the Linux community as strong as it is.
Bottomley ended his keynote emphasizing the advantages to this behavior. Especially companies can be sure that code they contribute will be viewed and enhanced from as many angles as possible. This fosters valuable contributions in light of millions of lines of code, the nature of which might not exist for projects such as Open Solaris.
Claims explainedYou are right, I missed some links to the original presentation slides, which had not been linked at the Congress website at the time of writing that article back in October.
Bottomley based most of his claims on the old BSD vs. GPL argument that developers such as Apple who use code under a BSD license have no mandadory obligations to "give back" their imporvements. he cited Linux Foundations CEO Jim Zemlin on the "Jail Analogy". He especially named proprietary divers in Mac OS X a problem, if I recall correctly after all that time. You can watch the full video of the talk at http://streaming.linux-maga...vents/lk08/archive/jbottomley/ and read his slides from http://data.guug.de/slides/...linux-kongress-2008_slides.pdf, the mentioned section are on pages 10ff.
Apple OS-X as JailIt would of been nice to read his reasons for the claim that Apple OS-X is comparable to a luxury jail. None have been cited in this article. To make the statement, and publish it, without the supporting reasons makes this a weaker article than it could be.
