Washington - Many Americans just received their first paycheck of 2013. That sound you hear is the collective "What the ...?" they have emitted upon looking at their pay stub.
For all the self-congratulatory back-patting from the White House and Congress on the deal that averted the "fiscal cliff" of tax increases - the deal locked in the George W. Bush-era tax cuts for households making under $450,000 - they tended not to mention what the deal did, or rather didn't do, on the payroll tax. A 2 percentage point reduction in the Social Security tax, which hits all American workers, had been enacted at the end of 2010. In the fiscal cliff deal, Congress and President Obama neither extended it further nor agreed on any other policies that might have the similar effect of leaving more money in workers' pockets.
The numbers, for anybody who hasn't checked their paycheck yet (or won't get paid in 2013 until later in the month):
For someone who makes the U.S. average for private sector workers of $818.69 a week and is paid every other week, that adds up to a reduction of $32.75 in each paycheck. For higher earners, anyone making over $113,700 annually, each bi-weekly paycheck will decline by $87.46.
The increase in payroll taxes has gone from being an abstraction in Washington policy debates that politicians prefer not to talk about to being something very real.
The big question for the economy as 2013 gets underway is how America will react to their smaller paychecks. It is uncharted waters in many way: For most of the last two decades, taxes have been steadily falling. There is not much evidence for just how much Americans will pare back in response to tighter times and a higher tax burden.
One place to look for evidence is what happened when the payroll tax cut was implemented at the start of 2011. In the first six months of the year, personal consumption spending rose 2.2 percent, though that coincided with a spike in fuel prices tied to unrest in the Middle East, so when adjusted for inflation consumption spending rose only 0.6 percent. (In a way, it turned out to be lucky timing; in effect, the payroll tax break offset the economic drag that came from what turned out to be a temporary bump in oil prices.)
But the open question for the economy in 2013 is whether Americans adjust differently when their paychecks have a tax-induced decline than they did when they received a bump.
In terms of consumer psychology, behavioral economists speak of "loss aversion," a tendency of people to be much more bummed out when they think they have lost something that belonged to them than if they gain it. A child might be much more upset to have a cookie taken away from them than they are happy to be given a cookie.
It is possible that as Americans learn of their lower take-home pay - either from reading news accounts around the fiscal cliff deal last week, or from opening their first paycheck of the year - they will adjust their entire spending plans for the year, which could make January a rough month for retailers and the economy as a whole.

Always a pleasure doing business here; clean, fabric as described, true to color, and received quickly.
Kathryn Trout on Sep 29, 2016
Fast shipping, love the fabric.
dolltrash on Sep 28, 2016
This was one of two purchases from this seller. My money was refunded and I returned the fabric on one item. It was extremely difficult to obtain satisfaction even though the item was inaccurately described. The seller was unreasonable and hostile. She went so far as to contact me on my unlisted home phone. I'm not certain how she obtained my number. My only complaint was that the fabric did not match the photo in the listing. All I wanted was the pretty fabric in the photo and what I received was very different. I felt as though she thought I was trying to cheat her. She even changed the photo on the listing after the fact to make it match what I received. This was the worst experience I have had on Etsy in 6 years. I would leave zero stars but the system won't let me. Buyer beware!
alorasadorables responded on Sep 29, 2016
Sigh. Sellers Beware. He demanded refund,got hysterical even cursed at me and called me a liar AFTER I gave a full refund and told him to keep the fabric. He did not return the fabric and he left a review of lies. Phone him? Phone #'s are not available to sellers. Yes, additional photos were added and the description clarified w/more detail so no one else would get confused. This fellow is angry because he was told not to return because he was abusive. Look at my over 6,000 positive reviews and judge for yourselves. Even though he cursed me I remained calm & respectful. Clearly this man has serious issues that have nothing to do with me or his experience shopping my store and the hostility he mentions is his own. Again, sellers beware.
Welcome to Alora's Adorables!
❁ I have a heart full of gratitude for all the wonderful customers who have contributed to AlorasAdorables' success on Etsy! Serving so many beautifully talented artisans has been fun and getting to know what shoppers of vintage want in textiles has helped Aloras' evolve daily.
❁ I am a collector, supplier, quilter and enthusiast of vintage chenille and other vintage textiles, but not an expert. I am always open to learning if you have something to share.
❁ I occasionally have help during holidays but most often do the actual work of AlorasAdorables myself ~ resourcing, designing and sewing. I stock and supply high quality vintage chenille and other fabrics for quilters, sewers, and crafters.
❁ I especially enjoy working with vintage cotton chenille ~ for me it inspires memories of my mother and a gentler time in history. Chenille represents "home" ~ it invites cozy comfort, total relaxation, is adaptable to all decor and offers a romantic touch of "lived in", shabby cottage chic.
❁ I love to talk, teach and write and some of my listings contain whimsical, heartfelt, "flowery" descriptions that express my passion for chenille. I take the liberty to express this passion in my listings because I have a love for chenille, not because I am applying sales techniques. Since opening the shop I've consistently maintained to those of us who love it, vintage chenille sells itself.
❁ I love projects that bring someone comfort ~ quilts for toddler beds, decorating baby's nursery, comforting the wheelchair bound and elderly, gift-giving or a pretty coverlet to toss over the arm of a favorite reading chair.
❁ Artistic expression is essential to nurturing my soul ~ music, sewing, quilting, painting, landscaping and gardening are among things that bring me joy.
❁ I never, ever get bored with sewing! When a project gets a little tedious I find yet another fabric that inspires me to finish the project I'm on so I can create something new ~ hence the saying… "so many fabrics, so little time"!
❁ Attention to little details is a hallmark of my heirloom creations. I believe my customers want handmade quilts of vintage chenille that reflect their uniqueness so I do not duplicate designs. Quality fabrics and skill in craftsmanship are paramount to me.
❁ I was born, raised and educated in California. As an adult I've lived in and traveled to other countries and the artful impressions made on my creativity from those cultures are interwoven into my designs. Whether walking through a forest, hiking a mountain or strolling a sandy shore, I deeply love nature and depend on it to clear my mind before designing and sewing.
❁ I've spent much of the last seven years battling cancer and am cancer free as I write this. Before that I was a typical type A personality, more rock than roll. Cancer taught me how to go with the flow and just let it happen.
❁ <*)))>< My faith is primary in my life and my goal is to operate my business with Christian principles to the best of my ability, taking it one day at a time. Though I love vintage treasures, the first love in my life is Jesus Christ ~ I am thankful for the blessings of his grace, love and forgiveness of my many imperfections. Redemption through him is my greatest treasure ~ to know my sins and transgressions are completely forgiven and I can be a vessel for his love is a gift I could never have earned and for which I am eternally grateful ~ I give him all the glory.
¸.•´¸.•*¨) ¸.•*¨)

~ It is impossible to show the "exact" color on all monitors because resolutions differ between monitors.

If necessary, photos may be brightened enough to decrease shadows so that fabric detail can more easily be seen.

AlorasAdorables' shop and policies were implemented with the professional guidance of a business advisor, attorney and other paid and unpaid advisors.

I wanted it to be raw, real and free and a celebration of life and the woman I've become."

Spider-Man Injury: Should They Turn ON The Dark?
Broadway's currently previewing Spider-Man: Turn off The Dark has been plagued with so much bad press and rotten luck (and possibly hubris) that they should win international kudos if they manage to limp to opening night, let alone to triumph.
Last night, an actor fell during a complicated stunt in the show and was rushed to the hospital as the audience sat, horrified.
In the most poignant twist of all, a Spider-Man actress tweeted that we should all pray for the guy--and she's the one who just got a concussion in the show!
Should they cut their losses before someone dies from all this? (And I don't mean of boredom.)

Socrates ORInsight™ is the tool hospitals need to improve surgery performance, not merely in the OR, but as a component of a care episode. ORInsight™ supports analysis of performance within the OR, comparing the cost of delivery to large scale clinical outcomes (LOS, Readmissions, Complication Rates, Mortality). The solution measures variance in care and cost by a range of operational variables.
Socrates SNFInsight™ is the tool Skilled Nursing Facilities need to improve care delivery as an isolated care event, as part of an acute episode and as a component of a chronic care episode. SNFInsight™ supports analysis of performance within the facility, comparing the total cost of care delivery to large scale clinical outcomes (LOS, Readmissions, Complication Rates, Mortality) and to expected reimbursement. The solution measures variance in care and cost, with granular breakdown of SNF operations and cost components, by a range of operational variables.
Socrates provides visibility into accessible costs within clinical care processes so that providers can manage risk and remain viable in the emerging healthcare environment.
Within standard implementation timeframes, Socrates can promptly deliver meaningful and accurate reporting.
With enhanced recovery pathways Socrates can reduce length of stay by 20-30%.
By identifying opportunity within cost drivers and managing variability, Socrates can reduce costs by 10-15%

Religions for Peace and Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons
The 2010 Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the
Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) was held in May 2010 at UN
Headquarters in New York. The final declaration was agreed by the 189
member states after comprehensive talks on the last day of the conference.
The NPT is acknowledged as the cornerstone of global disarmament efforts
and is even strengthened after the unanimously agreed final declaration.
The document calls for the United Nations secretary general to organise a
meeting of Middle East states in 2012 to agree to the creation of a "zone
free of nuclear weapons and all other weapons of mass destruction". "All
eyes the world over are watching us," said conference president Libran
Cabactulan, of the Philippines, as the final text was approved. More than
2000 representatives of NGOs and faith groups including several Religions
for Peace representatives were present during the month-long conference
and Religions for Peace organised several events.

The patterns of the multisystem disorder, sarcoidosis, in 537 patients in London have been compared with 311 in New York. The clinical diagnosis was always confirmed histologically; in four fifths of each series, sarcoid tissue was obtained by biopsy of lymph node, skin, or liver, which, together with the Kveim test, proved the most fruitful techniques.
The comparison includes clinical, radiological, and biochemical manifestations, modes of presentation, epidemiology, the immunological deficit, and treatment. Despite racial, cultural, and geographical differences, the pattern of disease was similar in both countries.

Cancer screening: An overview
Cancer screening is the subject of much debate. As new research discoveries are made, organizations like the United States Preventive Services Task Force and the American Cancer Society have to reevaluate their screening guidelines based on the most current scientific evidence in order to ensure that patients are receiving the most up-to-date and well-informed recommendations.

Simpler colonoscopies are safer
A new study by VCU Massey Cancer Center researchers discovered that as the complexity of colonoscopies increases, a higher risk of adverse events, such as GI bleeding or colonic perforation, are reported.

New Teddy Roosevelt Memorial Highlights President's Conservation Legacy
Category: Media & Culture
/ Nov 14, 2012 8:30PM EDT
The $40 million restoration project took 3 years to complete and now the public can enjoy the newly restored Theodore Roosevelt Memorial and Jill and Lewis Bernard Family Hall of North American Mammals. Theodore Roosevelt was New York State's 33rd Governor and the nation's 26th President. Theodore Roosevelt's presence can be felt throughout the museum, from the Central Park West façade to the Theodore Roosevelt rotunda to the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Hall, which was built in a grand Roman style between 1929 and 1935. It's only natural that TR's official memorial, and brand new statue, are located in the American Natural History Museum, given his close association with the institution and his passion for science. Theodore's father helped found the museum. The original charter creating the museum was even signed in the Roosevelt family home in 1869. The Hall of North American Mammals first opened to the public in 1942 with 10 dioramas depicting North America's natural wonders. TR was a life-long explorer, naturalist and conservation enthusiast. He was a leader in the American conservation movement. During his life he placed nearly 230 million acres under federal protection. He also set aside five national parks, four game preserves, 51 bird refuges, and 18 national monuments. The Central Park West façade was cleaned top to bottom and given brand new energy efficient exterior lighting! The three large colorful murals, found in the Theodore Roosevelt Rotunda, depicting milestones from his public life, were beautifully restored to their original glory.

TUCSON, Ariz. — The transportation department at Amphitheater Public Schools has completed 250 consecutive days of driving without a moving violation, equivalent to over 2 million miles.
To congratulate the team on setting this district record, Superintendent Dr. Vicki Balentine and Executive Manager of Operational Support Doug Aho grilled and served a steak lunch to over 160 drivers and attendants, as well as garage and office staff, in March.
After the transportation department's last streak of 154 consecutive days ended in November 2006, Balentine and Aho challenged the staff to reach 200 days, with the steak lunch as a reward. The department reached 250 violation-free days on Feb. 19.
"We are very proud of our transportation staff; they do a remarkable job ensuring the safe travels of our students every day," Balentine said.
The district's fleet has over 130 buses, all but one of which use biodiesel, a renewable energy source.
In total, the fleet travels approximately 9,500 miles each day on 110 bus routes, as well as field trips and athletic excursions.

Manning Sentenced to 35 Years in WikiLeaks Case
Soldier Faced Maximum Sentence of 90 Years
FORT MEADE, Md.—Pfc. Bradley Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison for leaking classified U.S. government information to WikiLeaks, the culmination of a trial that posed tough questions about government secrecy and national security.
Wearing his Army dress uniform, Pfc. Manning stood impassively as the presiding judge, Col. Denise Lind, delivered a sentence that means the former intelligence analyst will likely spend at least eight more years behind bars before he could be freed.
The trial raised awkward questions over whether leakers like Pfc. Manning provide a public service by revealing secrets or whether such efforts are outweighed by the potential damage to national security. That debate has accelerated in recent months amid the release by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden of secret documents detailing America's expansive surveillance programs.
The punishment for Pfc. Manning, who downloaded some 700,000 classified military and diplomatic documents that he sent to WikiLeaks, came as a shock to his attorneys and antisecrecy advocates, who said it would have a chilling effect on whistleblowers looking to expose government wrongdoing.
"The Manning prosecution has vividly demonstrated that, under our current legal system, there is little difference between the way we treat those who engage in espionage and those who disclose information to the press with the intent of informing public debate," said Mary-Rose Papandrea, a professor at Boston College Law School.
Pfc. Manning's sentence was the longest meted out in recent history for a would-be whistleblower charged with espionage for sharing classified information in an effort to change U.S. national-security policies. But the scope of Pfc. Manning's leak was unprecedented.
Over seven months in 2010, based on documents and data provided by Pfc. Manning, WikiLeaks released 250,000 diplomatic cables, nearly 400,000 military reports and video of a 2007 U.S. airstrike in Baghdad that killed two Reuters employees. The releases led to concerns that U.S. soldiers, diplomats and American allies could be jeopardized by the release of sensitive information about U.S. national security strategy.
For some, Pfc. Manning's punishment wasn't strong enough.
Rep. Buck McKeon (R., Calif.), chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, said the sentence was "light." He added, "Given the vast damage he did to our national security and the need to send a strong signal to others who may be tempted to disclose classified information, this is a dangerous conclusion."
After an eight-week court-martial, Pfc. Manning, 25 years old, was convicted last month of espionage and other lesser charges. Col. Lind acquitted him of the most serious charge—aiding the enemy—which could have brought a life sentence.
Pfc. Manning had faced a maximum 90-year sentence. The prosecution had asked for 60 years, and the defense no more than 25. He received credit for 1,294 days in confinement, which his attorneys and military analysts said would mean he could be eligible for parole in about eight years. The judge ordered the former intelligence analyst in Iraq to be dishonorably discharged, forfeit all pay and benefits, and have his rank reduced to the lowest in the Army.
Pfc. Manning is expected to be transferred quickly to Fort Leavenworth, Kan., to serve his sentence. The case will be immediately appealed, and he could be granted clemency by the Army parole board.
In a statement, Pfc. Manning sought to explain his actions as an attempt to expose America's post-9/11 counterterrorism policies as a "dark moment" in U.S. history. "Patriotism is often the cry extolled when morally questionable acts are advocated by those in power," he wrote. "When these cries of patriotism drown out any logically-based dissension, it is usually the American soldier that is given the order to carry out some ill-conceived mission."
Last week, in a final appeal for leniency, Pfc. Manning apologized and cast himself as a misguided young soldier who didn't realize that his actions would hurt the U.S.
David Coombs, Pfc. Manning's lead attorney, and others said they would launch a new campaign urging President Barack Obama to pardon Pfc. Manning.
Pfc. Manning is a high-profile example of the administration's crackdown on leaks. It has used the 1917 Espionage Act to prosecute more than twice as many people for mishandling secret government information as all other administrations combined.
Seven people, including Pfc. Manning and Mr. Snowden, have been charged under the act. Before President Barack Obama took office, only three people faced similar charges.
In another high-profile case, former Central Intelligence Agency officer John Kiriakou is currently serving a 30-month sentence after being convicted of sharing classified information with a reporter about the agency's controversial waterboarding interrogation technique.
One supporter of Pfc. Manning let out a gasp in the small military courtroom as the judge issued her decision, and several shouted out to the Army private as he was quickly escorted out of the room.
"We'll keep fighting for you, Bradley," one called out. "You're our hero," said another.
Mr. Coombs said the defense team wept after the verdict and the Army private tried to console his lawyers before heading back to his jail cell. "He looks to me and he says, 'It's OK. It's alright. Don't worry about it. I know you did your best. It's going to be OK. I'm going to be OK,'" Mr. Coombs said later, his eyes welling up with tears. "He is a resilient young man."
Pfc. Manning won international notice after his May 2010 arrest at a U.S. military base in Iraq. Supporters, including WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, hailed him as a whistleblower who risked his own freedom in an attempt to rouse opposition to American foreign policy and its "war on terror."
On Wednesday, Mr. Assange was one of few supporters of Pfc. Manning who viewed the sentence in favorable terms, calling it a "significant tactical victory" that fell far short of original government charges. But, he said, the "only just outcome" would be Pfc. Manning's "unconditional release."

High quality pad
By Iggy
from Undisclosed
Rhodia makes a great pad with silky smooth 80 gsm Clairefontaine paper. Great for notetaking with your favorite fountain pen. No bleed through observed with Lamy medium nib. Orange plastic fold-over cover has a nice feel and protects your notes from spills and light rain. Wished Levenger carried more sizes.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Portable breakfasts match teenagers' lifestyle
Getting teens to eat breakfast on school days will always be a challenge. It comes with the territory. Always has.
Teens are more independent. They're juggling schoolwork and social lives. Who has time to bother with breakfast?
Sarah Berghoff McClure, for one. The 16-year-old from Chicago's northern suburbs makes sure she eats a good breakfast; otherwise, she said, "by second period, you'll be starving."
That means she can't do what she sees some teens do.
"Some have a cup of coffee, bring it to school, drink that and call it their breakfast," she said. "You have to eat breakfast even if it's just one egg and an apple on the go."
Breakfast "depends on what we have in the house. But if we have waffles, I will cook those. Pancakes sometimes, if my mom is in a really good mood," said Sarah, who follows a gluten-free diet. "What I do on my own is make eggs because eggs are quick, healthy and protein. Generally that's not enough to fill me up so I have these protein shakes I make."
Or she'll scour the refrigerator.
"I'll be, like, OK, I have some bread. I'll toast the bread, I'll make an egg, I'll put it on the bread. If I have some bean salad, I'll put, like, one spoon of the bean salad on it or guacamole or salsa. It's kind of like making a burrito. It's a burrito on the go. That's my favorite breakfast."
While Sarah often cooks her own breakfast, it's her mom who makes sure the kitchen's stocked.
Mom is Carlyn Berghoff, mother of three teenagers and CEO of the Berghoff Catering and Restaurant Group. Carlyn and Sarah co-authored "Cooking for Your Gluten-Free Teen: Everyday Foods the Whole Family Will Love" with Dr. Suzanne P. Nelson and Nancy Ross Ryan.
Just as with many teens, Sarah's breakfasts aren't always consumed at the table, especially when the soon-to-be-junior is running really late.
"I bring it upstairs with me," she said, "and eat while I put my makeup on."
Making breakfast portable helps. So beyond a fried-egg sandwich eaten on the run, consider molletes (moe-YEH-taze), which are open-face sandwiches popular with students in Mexico. Or a fruit bread (you can make a gluten-free version) spread with a nut butter or eaten with a fruit-and-yogurt smoothie.
Registered dietitians Jill Castle and Maryann Jacobsen, authors of "Fearless Feeding: How to Raise Healthy Eaters from High Chair to High School" (Jossey-Bass, $16.95), offer recipes and guidelines for nourishing teens.
Among them:
- Breakfast for a teen should include meat (or a nonmeat protein source), fat, fruit, grain and dairy (or nondairy alternative). It could be as simple as peanut butter on whole-grain toast with a banana and milk.
- The accelerated growth of teens means they may consume more food and bigger portions. "Rather than worry about extra hunger, be prepared for it with quality food on hand and regular meals that satisfy your teen," suggest the authors.
- Ten power foods for teens: Seeds, nuts, instant ready-to-eat fortified cereals, 100-percent orange juice, beans, low-fat cheese, low-fat yogurt, low-fat milk, dark green leafy vegetables, orange-colored fruits and vegetables (mango, carrots, etc.).
- "Rather than fight against the foods teens love," say the authors, "find ways to modify them so that they remain tasty and pack more nutrients," for example, by subbing low-fat cheese for full-fat versions on pizza.

Proposition A on the June 3 ballot in San Diego is an easy decision. It would amend the City Charter to assure that election officials have sufficient time to meet state requirements in the processing of election materials and to avoid a potentially significant embarrassment.
The charter currently requires a mayor, council member or city attorney to be sworn into office on the first Monday after the first day of December following an election. But depending on the calendar in a given year, that inauguration day could be just 27 days following the election. And election officials have 28 days under state law to certify results, which may soon be changed to 30 days. That could result in a mayor, council member or attorney being sworn in before he or she has even been certified as the winner. Proposition A would shift the inauguration to Dec. 10. Problem fixed.
A second provision would extend the deadline to hold a special runoff election to fill a vacancy in the office or mayor or council member. The current deadline for the runoff election conflicts with laws requiring officials to mail ballots to overseas voters and to military members.
Proposition A has the bipartisan support of Mayor Kevin Faulconer, Council President Todd Gloria and others. There is no known opposition.
