Asset monetization isn't the only complex, multibillion-dollar issue confronting Gov. Jon Corzine and the Legislature. The governor has promised a new education funding formula in time for school boards to draft budgets this winter. To meet that timetable, Trenton's leaders are intent on fast-tracking a $7.8 billion aid plan through the Senate and Assembly in the next five weeks.
They ought to reconsider.
After all, school spending is the lion's share of everyone's property tax bill. Moreover, the result will mean a revamping of so-called Abbott funding for poor districts, which the state has wrestled with for decades.
This is not something that ought to get done on the quick. Corzine has promised a public forum on asset monetization in each of the state's 21 counties. Is financing our public schools any less important?
What is known so far about Corzine's plan is little beyond the catchphrase that state aid should follow the child. Fine, but how will that work?
Tidbits have trickled out, but the details -- specifically how much each district will get and why -- remain stashed in an Education Department computer. Despite that dearth of information, Corzine, Assembly Speaker Joseph Roberts and Senate President Richard Codey want to get the massive spending plan wrapped up by Jan. 7, probably voting on that final day of the lame-duck session.
That doesn't leave much time for a reasonable discussion of a proposal that will affect every school district and every property tax payer in New Jersey for years to come.
Last year, during the special session on property tax reform, lawmakers spent months studying the matter, holding myriad hearings and eliciting comments from all sides.
It is not good enough, however, to say that this passes for public debate. People outside of Trenton weren't fully engaged then, and they won't be this time either. Under the Legislature's schedule, any full-blown debate will have to come amid holiday preparations and festivities. (No, dear, we can't decorate the tree this year. We've got to go to Trenton to discuss per pupil spending.)
More important, the Legislature is about to undergo a remarkable makeover. The 40-member Senate will have 16 new faces and the 80-member Assembly will have 27. Those newcomers should have a say. Allowing lame-duck lawmakers who aren't answerable to voters anymore to make decisions that will affect property taxes for years is illogical as well as a snub of voters.
Besides, rushing can amount to a waste of time. It's happened before. In 1990, a newly elected Gov. Jim Florio came up with a new school financing formula. Democrats strong-armed the proposal through the Legislature by late spring. A month or so later, the state Supreme Court forced Florio to rewrite the plan.
The call for caution isn't meant to suggest that longer debates inherently produce better results. But a policy move as momentous as school funding shouldn't be made in a matter of weeks.

Dashing hopes for a quick ruling on the legality of the Obama administration's second moratorium on offshore oil drilling, U.S. District Court Judge Martin Feldman asked for additional briefing Thursday on two questions emerging from Wednesday's hearing in the case Ensco Offshore Co. v. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar.
Feldman's request comes as the Interior Department issued new drilling rules Thursday that are considered a prerequisite for lifting the ban on deepwater oil prospecting. The ban, implemented after the April 20 Deepwater Horizon rig explosion, is scheduled to end Nov. 30, but officials in Washington have indicated in recent weeks that it may end earlier.
Feldman asked Ensco and the U.S. Department of Justice, which has been representing the Interior Department in two court challenges over its policy, to provide the additional briefing by Oct. 11, meaning that his ruling on drilling ban won't come until after that date.
In a separate challenge to the drilling ban by Covington marine services company Hornbeck Offshore, briefs are due Oct. 6 in Hornbeck's request to have Feldman enforce the preliminary injunction he issued on the first moratorium June 22 because the first and second moratoriums are similar.
Feldman threw out the original moratorium in June, and the Obama administration issued a second drilling ban July 12.
With the Obama administration issuing new rules Thursday and two cases before Feldman that could produce rulings shortly, the race is on for whether the drilling ban is lifted before the court has the final say on whether the policy was proper under the Administrative Procedures Act, which governs bureaucratic rule-making.
As the Justice Department has argued that the federal government acted properly in issuing the drilling bans, attorneys from Hornbeck and Ensco have tried to paint a picture of the Obama administration doing an end-run around the judiciary in issuing the second moratorium.
After a hearing Wednesday in the Ensco case, Feldman asked for additional briefing on two questions.
One is whether Salazar had the authority under the Administrative Procedures Act to make policy decisions, even if they are internally inconsistent, based on new information gathered after the first moratorium was struck down.
The second calls for a list of evidence other than a July 9 memo and several often-cited quotes that the Salazar decided to issue a second moratorium before gathering any new supporting information, and arguments as to whether that is sufficient to establish that the secretary's decision to issue the second moratorium was "arbitrary, capricious and an abuse of discretion."
Between the two cases, the federal government has already filed more than 34,000 pages of information in support of its belief that a moratorium is necessary.

Drills buying guide
The drill is the most popular and versatile of all power tools and has become an essential in every DIY tool kit. Not only useful for drilling holes into a variety of materials, they can also be used to drive home screws (with the correct bit attached).
Consider whether you will be looking for a drill with a 'hammer' action - Not only can these drills rotate a drill bit, but they can also apply a 'hammering' action. Switch to hammer (or impact) mode, and the drill bit is vibrated and shunted forwards rapidly as it turns. This makes for quick work, especially through harder wall surfaces or materials. Fit a specialist chisel bit, and you can use your hammer drill for 'chasing' - making a channel in walls to hide wires and cables.
This guide will help you to choose the right drill for your needs - and explain the function of some of the most popular accessories.

TRENTON — A city woman who allegedly knew about the abuse of her girlfriend's 10-year-old son that a prosecutor described as "torture" appeared in court today to face charges of failing to notify authorities.
Graciela Silva-Izquierdo, 35, faces fourth-degree charges of cruelty/neglect of a child for failing to alert the authorities that the boy suffered abuse at the hands of his mother, 23-year-old Trenton woman Skarlett Diaz-Hildalgo, according to Assistant Prosecutor Jennifer Downing.
That abuse included being struck with an extension cord and having rope rubbed against his neck to cause open wounds, she said.
"She did not personally physically abuse the child, but she witnessed it and did nothing to stop it," Downing said during Silva-Izquierdo's bail hearing this morning.
Authorities learned of the alleged abuse when they found the boy after he was reported missing on July 26. Diaz-Hildalgo was arrested the same day and charged with second-degree endangering the welfare of a child.
"He ran away on July 26 because he simply could not take the torture anymore," Downing said.
Diaz-Hildalgo also is accused of making the boy kneel on sharp objects and forcing him to stand in place for hours with a weight bar on his shoulders, causing bruises, prosecutors said during her court appearance.
Silva-Izquierdo allegedly knew about all of the abuse, Downing said.
"She even said that at times she would step in and say that's enough," Downing said.
Silva-Izquierdo's attorney, Jenna Casper, said that her client had been with Diaz-Hildago for about a year and works nights, sleeping during the day. Casper added that she was not sure her client was aware of the alleged abuse.
Downing said that Silva-Izquierdo confessed on video to knowing about the abuse.
Diaz-Hildalgo herself confessed to the abuse on video and prosecutors have photo evidence of the boy's injuries, Downing has said.
Judge Pedro Jimenez today required Silva-Izquierdo, who is not a U.S. citizen, to turn over her passport and set her bail at $20,000.
Previously, bail was set at $200,000 for Diaz-Hildalgo, who is from the Dominican Republic and not a U.S. citizen. Judge Robert Billmeier noted she has no ties to New Jersey or the United States and therefore was a risk of fleeing before trial.
Neither woman is allowed any contact with the child if they are able to post bail.

These hot dogs, known as "ripper dogs" because of the way the casing splits when cooked in a deep fryer, have become one of the hottest items at Arooga's Grille House & Sports Bar locations.
"We're a sports bar, so we had tried serving traditional hot dogs in the past," owner Gary Huether says. "But when we started serving deep-fried hot dogs, people took notice."
Consistent with Arooga's food philosophy of "fresh, never frozen" meat, the natural-casing, all-beef hot dogs are shipped raw, then fried to order in one of three ways. "In-out" dogs are cooked in the fryer until they float. "Ripped" dogs, Huether's preference, take a 4-minute oil bath and emerge with a split or bubbly skin. Then there are the "cremated" dogs that have been fried until flame-charred black.
The dogs are served on Martin's potato rolls and topped with a variety of gourmet toppings inspired by hot dogs made across the country.
"I did some research, and I found that hot dogs in Chicago are served with pickles and relish. On Coney Island, there are chili dogs," Huether says.
The 10 all-American hot dog combos on Arooga's menu include styles drawn from New York, Kansas City, the Carolinas and Los Angeles. In addition to standard condiments like mayo and mustard, these dogs feature unique ingredients such as sauerkraut, Cheez Wiz, Guinness Stout chili and cole slaw.
Eating these dogs is more like eating a gourmet burger. The Mexicali —a ripper dog topped with fresh homemade salsa, guacamole, sour cream and onions — gives off an aroma of cilantro and beef. The natural casing snaps when you bite it. The LA Street dog features a flurry of jalapeno mixed with the tang of mustard beneath the crunch of peppers and onions.
"You'd be surprised how much the toppings change a hot dog," Huether says.
For the skeptical, Huether points out that the hot dogs are sold in pairs, allowing customers to experiment with cooking temperatures and toppings. The restaurant's Football Special MVP basket pairs one ripper dog with Arooga's famous wings, permitting customers to try the dogs alongside old favorites. As a nod to tradition, there's even a ripper dog served with the standard trinity of ketchup, mustard and relish.
"There's a reason why our name is written 'Grille House' first and 'Sports Bar' second," Huether says. "We do upscale bar food."

Order up the Susquehanna River Dog on the Pride of the Susquehanna Riverboat. The foot-long Smith's hot dog is served on an equal size toasted bun slathered with yellow mustard and topped with chili, sprinkled with shredded cheddar cheese and served with chopped onions and sliced jalapenos on the side. It costs $5.50.
The Spot at Metro Bank Park sells The Harper Dog named after outfielder Bryce Harper. The hot dog is served with Spot chili infused with southwestern seasonings, black beans, corn, fresh salsa and spicy ranch and is topped with crushed tortilla chips. It sells for $4.
The Spot also serves The Strasburg named after the 2010 pitcher Stephen Strasburg. The $4 hot dog is topped with honey mustard, sauerkraut, shredded apples soaked in beer and crushed pretzels.

Essential. Reliable. Invaluable. Water—it's the thread that weaves together our daily lives. It keeps our communities healthy, our cities running, and our economies growing. Water is a cup of coffee, the produce aisle, better production, increased exports, and greater American strength. While essential, water infrastructure is largely invisible. Few people realize what it takes to treat and deliver drinking water every day or how wastewater is cleaned so that it can be safely reused or returned to the environment. The high quality of life we enjoy in America would not be possible without water and the infrastructure that fuels it.
Home Page
What is the value of water?
Our infrastructure is at risk.
One of the crowning achievements of the 20th century was building reliable water and wastewater systems. Since then, public and private utilities across the country have been putting people to work to construct, operate, and maintain the water and wastewater infrastructure that Americans rely on daily. After working around the clock for more than 100 years, this infrastructure is aging and failing. In America today, a water main breaks every 2 minutes. The good news is that investment in water infrastructure puts people to work and builds a stronger America.
Together we are the solution.
The Value of Water Coalition builds national will for investment in water infrastructure and water resources. We are an alliance of public and private water agencies, community and business leaders, and national organizations, united in communicating the importance of water to the economic, environmental and social well-being of America. With one voice, we educate and engage the public on the importance of clean, safe, and reliable water and help ensure quality water service for future generations.

Pokémon PERFECT PLATINUM
Hack of:
Pokemon Platinum
Player starts out on their adventure following their overly-hyper childhood friend. In what starts out as just another innocent adventure the player soon finds them self fighting for the fate of the world against the evil Team Galactic in an effort to stop their power lust as they try to control the great Giratina.
All 493 Pokemon are available!
4 major events accessible, allowing you access to 4 D/P Legendaries!
- I have included every Pokemon scattered throughout the Sinnoh Region. Unfortunately, due to lack of scripting tools at this time many previous (pre-D/P/P) legendaries can be encountered randomly (most if not all are level 70+).
- I did my best to keep the Sinnoh dex somewhat accurate, but any Pokemon that is not in Platinum will not appear in the Pokedex. I apologize for any inconvienence but we just don't have the tools to edit the Pokedex at this time.
- I have edited every trade evolution! Normal Trade Evolutions should evolve at level 40. Item trade evolutions now evolve holding the trade item on level up in the daytime.
- 4 event items are available through in-game trades. Allowing access to event legendaries. (Be sure to remove the items from the pokemon once the trade is completed!)
- The Stopwatch and Alarm Clock Pokétch Apps can be acquired from the Pokétch President once you have 7 Gym Badges.
- Challenger's Edition has progressively increasing difficulty for experienced trainer's.
- Newest releases include patching program and your choice of patching methods.
- Patch should now be Linux compatible!
- I've included mirrors in case of server failure.
- *UPDATED* I found an error in Rotom's Form room and have corrected it.
Special Thanks:
Mushen - Without him, you may have never seen this release!
SCV - For all his patience with me! (And the extra help you gave us at the end!)
FattyFatFatFat - For her work on the location guide and her patience with my hectic life!

Looks Good
I will have to play through Platinum again now
It is still a WIP so please forgive a few things that are waiting on the upcoming tools...
Can't wait to write new events!
Sweet. Must be a pretty recent project considering Platinum was only released last month.
I started reading up on it the day before the official release, (I ♥ having friends that work at game stores!) 4 days later I had the first beta out! About a week after that (5 days ago) I released Challenger's Edition which followed 2 days after the 2nd beta...
Wow, I just looked at the calendar, that's 3 versions in 2 weeks... Hot damn!
Why thank you!
Just a quick update, I may have possibly came up with a way to make every legendary you catch in my mod pass every legit check without having to edit your save file.
At this point in time, I only have theories on this stuff cuz I cannot test Wi-Fi at all, but I know every pokemon you catch in my mod has legit stats.
If people are willing to test wi-fi on this (mainly to see if pokemon pass legit checks) I would greatly appreciate the feedback! Plus, I have sworn to fix any possible bugs that may arise, so that I can make this as Perfect as possible.
I like it, but could you please add the location of every pokemon on the pokedex? even if you add them we wont be able to find some of theme without a list of locations or a pokedex entry with the location area.
i liked the challenge version and i wish you luck with this project.
well i really hate to say this but, that is impossible
no one has cracked the way the pokedex works yet (believe me, it was the first thing i wanted to edit!)
I actually just beat the e4 in my challenger's edition this morning and I gotta say, it was perfect!
I am currently working on fixing the events, as I found out the event items received from in-game trades are useless...
Aw that sucks... maybe if you edited an NPC so you can select the pokemon and get their location through dialog instead of the pokedex...(dont know if thats possible, just giving ideas xD).
if you cant then just post a list here or in a notepad with the patch.
yea, I was considering the notepad idea, but I probably won't get to it until all of the pokemon are in there final locations, after playing through it I've seen some stuff I wanna tweak, move, and remove. Especially since I confirmed last week that all my edited evolutions do work perfectly!
cool does it work for pokemon Platinum (U)
uh, yea, I designed completely around the US Platinum!
I started the day before it's release!
Although I will advise for now (and I have been avoiding saying this for about a week but it's at the point where it needs to be said) to not do the in-game trades, yes they do give you the event items but for the time being those event items are broken. Depending on the method I decide to use to fix them (I am still weighing my options on this) if you do the in-game trades now you may have to restart the game from scratch if you want to access the events later...
Although the methods I am currently looking at that may not be the case, you may just have some junk items from the in-game trades if you keep your current save and I may switch the in-game trade items to evolutionary stones...
Or, have one hold the gracidea flower(It doesn't matter if the flower it's self is hacked or not, it will still work on the flower paradice shaymin), and possibly make another a manaphy egg.

What to Watch For...
Hafner hitting the knee high pitch. LaPorta keeping his hands too high and NOT being able to hit the knee high pitch nor drive the knee high pitch to right field. Did Brantley weaken his ankle in his sixth inning at bat last night when the ball might have been fouled off of his ankle, causing foot to temporarily buckle and turn sideways. Fortunately, Brantley's foot buckled for just a micro second. Brantley actually hopped once right after he finished his swing. That was how I knew to go back and review the sequence on my dvr.
Shin Soo Choo ending his slump? Stable play from Hannahan, Cabrera, Cabrera, and Brantley (sounds like a law firm). Fierce play from Santana, Enough of a contribution from left field to make up for Grady's absence.
Will the Red Sox feast on Talbot because he is the second change up artist in back to back games? If the Red Sox are hitting Talbot early and often, should the Indians bring in a reliever to stop the damage, and get Carmona stretched out between innings and then pitch Carmona for the rest of the game?
Should the Indians even consider such a scenario. YES! That would be playing to win.
If the pitching swap is necessary and made early enough in the game, Carmona still got his four days of rest, and Talbot can come back in a couple of days anyways. It would be wise if the Indians consider the possibility of starting back to back change up pitchers as being risky, and have a plan b just in case, actually considering using their plan b.
That would be playing to win.

On a day when Alabama got the outside shots it expected but couldn't sink them, a long, wild shot by Auburn's Alli Smalley that went in at the halftime buzzer seemed to sink the Crimson Tide.
Instead of a tie, Auburn took a three-point lead into the break, and the Tigers then pulled away to a 66-55 victory in the Southeastern Conference opener for both teams.
Time was running out in the first half when Auburn worked the ball inside. It came loose, then suddenly ended up in Smalley's hands beyond the top of the key. A defender flew toward her.
"I was fading," Smalley said. "I shot the ball off-balance, but it felt good when it left my hands.
"I think it was a momentum changer for us."
No kidding. The Tigers (8-6, 1-0 in the SEC) built their lead to five points three minutes into the second half. Alabama (11-3, 0-1) then went more than 10 minutes without a field goal, missing 16 consecutive shots. Four of those shots were 3-pointers. Six were layups.
Before Tierney Jenkins sank a layup with 6:32 left in the game, the Tigers led by 16 points. The Tide cut the deficit to six points late in the game but could come no closer.
Alabama coach Wendell Hudson shook his head at the way the first half ended.
"It's always a momentum 3-pointer," he said. "It was one of those funny things. They fumbled it and kind of kicked it up. I thought we touched it one time.
"Smalley catches it, makes the big 3 and ends the half on a high note. We went in on a down note. Then they came out, and that's the way they started the second half."

GRAND RAPIDS, MI – As snow blankets the region, police and
medical personnel are continuing to respond to multiple car accidents and slide-offs across West Michigan.
The Grand Rapids branch of the National Weather Service reported light snowfall between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. could lead to one to three inches of new snow, making roads slick.
The report also indicated freezing drizzle is possible after midnight, making for a slow and icy commute Monday morning.
As the snow began to intensify this evening, emergency dispatch traffic indicated that law enforcement patrols were busy with numerous accident scenes around the area.
At 4:15 p.m., police responded to reports of a car in a ditch near I96's 28th Street off ramp. Dispatch indicated the guard rail was pushed into the ditch.
At 4:28 p.m., a green Ford Taurus was reported along the right shoulder of southbound U.S. 131 on the S-curve.
At 4:44 p.m., a car was reported to have gone into the trees on westbound I96, just east of M6. The accident was ruled property damage only, and no injuries were reported.
At 5:21, a teal Ford Contour spun out and struck the guardrail on westbound I96 just west of 36th Street. The driver reported minor back pain to medical responders, but was otherwise deemed to be unharmed.
At 5:25, two accidents were reported along I96, one at the 28th Street exit and another at the 36th Street exit. One was treated for injuries, and the other refused medical.
At 6:08, an accident was reported on westbound I96, west of M6. A car that contained three passengers, including two small children, struck the guardrail, but no injuries were reported aside from mild back pain.
At 7:36, a four-car pileup was reported on eastbound I96 at the 56 mile-marker.
Other accident locations include a property damage crash at Wealthy Street and Market Ave. SW, and a semi truck vs. car accident of unknown seriousness along U.S 131 near Burton Ave.

In today's dispatches, the press takes note of Dr. Orly's Hawaiian failure. The Pest and eFail, (or should that be eFail:Pest), goes sovereign citizen. Dean Haskins shows his ability at humour is just has effective as his debate skills, (next time he should try to make a 'Benny Hill' parody.) Still, it's interesting to have proof that Miki Booth lies.
Dr. Kate seems to have problems with the "Occupy Wall Street" movement, maybe because they're not as racist as the groups she likes. Meanwhile Dr. Orly threatens to sue Hillary Clinton, and Thomas MacLearan aka "One Pissed-off Vietnam Vet" seems to think coups and insurrection is just a peachy keen idea.
Dr. Orly whines that it's been three years since she was Chief Justice Robert's creepy stalker girl, and then gets all screechy when she's handed a triple-whammy.
12 October - The Orange County Register reports on Dr. Orly's latest failure.
"Laguna Niguel attorney and dentist Orly Taitz was today denied a federal court order that the state of Hawaii show her President Barack Obama's birth certificate, according to TV station KHON 2′s website. It's hardly Taitz's first rejection in her bid to prove Obama's presidency is illegitimate"
14 October - Oh look. The Pest and eFail has gone sovereign citizen.
"The consequence of these and other changes is that subsequent statutes, and the entire court system of the United States, emerged under a Law Merchant system that neither man nor woman, as sovereigns in their republics, are obliged to obey. However, to obligate men and women, Legal Persons (a form of "fictional persons") were created:
* At childbirth the mother is encouraged to describe her newborn child to the government, and provide the information using her maiden name.
* This certificate of live birth is forwarded to the Department of Commerce, establishing the newborn's future rights to the commonwealth of the nation.
* In return, a government Birth Certificate is issued, typically with the child's name spelled in all capital letters, or with an abbreviated middle name.
However, the Birth Certificate is not about the child. Instead it is the embodiment of the newly created and naturalized Legal Person, as a 14th Amendment "citizen of the United States" and subject to the jurisdiction thereof (i.e., the statutes, etc.). This Legal Person is the property of a trust to which the child is the Beneficiary and full owner of its equity; and to which the state, by default, becomes Executor (because the child, born to a maiden, is legally disabled!). The government became the Trustee, and therefore holds title to the Legal Person. Upon reaching majority (18 years of age) the child, still as Beneficiary, becomes the Master, and can appoint a new Executor (usually himself) at any time, except for the fact he is unaware of the trust, due to our public, government-managed, cookie-cutter education."
Has there ever been an example of a "sovereign citizen" actually succeeding in any of their half-assed claims??
14 October - In another example of the failure of birther humour, Zampolit Dean Haskins posts a "comedy" video about his photo-op Hawaiian vacation, showing them dragging his promotional check and his Obama cut-out all over the Island of Oahu.
The "Keystone Cops" music is quite appropriate though.
At 2:38 Miki Booth shows up at the Governor's mansion. She mentioned that Gov. Abercrombie used to be her representative on the Big Island. And also claims that Abercrombie was known as the "connection" for "snort", marijuana, etc.
While the drug dealing claim is rather tacky, it also shows that - surprise! - Miki Booth is lying. Let's look at Abercrombie's history.
He studied at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and later was a member of the Hawaii House of Representatives for the Makiki-Manoa from 1975 to 1979. This is in the Honolulu area. He was a Hawaiian State Senator for the Honolulu area from 1980 to 1986, then Abercrombie served on the Honolulu City Council from 1988-1990. Honolulu is on Oahu, not the "Big Island" of Hawaii.
When he was elected to the US House of Represenatives, it for the Hawaii's first Congressional district - which is the Honolulu area again.
So up until the point he was elected Governor, absolutely NONE of his political background was in representing any parts of the "Big Island" of Hawaii. In short, Miki Booth is lying though her teeth about Abercrombie being her representative "on the big island" - and is more than likely lying about the drug sales as well.
At 3:24, I'm trying to decide what Haskins is trying to prove by throwing a shoe at a cardboard cutout of Obama. It's about as effective his trying to "interview" the cardboard cutout or knocking it over with a piece of paper.
At 3:36, Haskins shows up going:
"Here at the Kapi'olani Medical Center, where I understand Barack Obama's white half was born, I think that his Arabic and black half was born over in Queens Medical Center."
*rolls eyes* Ah, that old canard that Obama's father was actually "descended from Arabic slave traders"
As comedy, it's a pretty consistent fail. As politics, it's a pretty consistent fail. What it does show however is that neither Haskins or Booth were serious about anything they did during their Hawaiian vacation.
15 October - One might get the idea that Dr. Kate doesn't like the "Occupy Wall Street" movement.
" Planned as a diversion from the Obama cheaters, liars, and murderers, OWS has turned into a circus supported by cloward-piven types, "American Nazis", the democrats, the media, and the democratic socialists who care for nothing but themselves. Spoiled rotten by their parents, they are rightly called the 'flea party'. "
And that's just the start:
"In 2009 Michelle Obama appeared on the cover of Newsweek supposedly to discuss ways of curing childhood obesity. Given whose picture is shown in the apple, and Michelle's communist background, is intentional starvation of unwanted segments of the population… Michelle Obama"s idea of addressing 'childhood obesity'? Starvation of whitey?"
Racist much?
"Obama is the culmination of a century of this hatred and war against Americans, America, and God. His administration is loaded with communists, followers of Mao, Nazis, and the Muslim Brotherhood, all of those strings pulled by the financiers.
One could say this target is huge, too big in fact to address. Not so. We must choose the closest targets, the 'low hanging fruit', that will lead us straight to the cartels. Obama is one big target, his vulnerability increasing every day. We must continue to push him and the democrats over the ledge…and no parachutes!"
Oh really......
"Knocking these targets out of the way brings us closer to the dark underbelly of the Twentieth Century–the financiers."
Get the feeling the original said "....closer to the dark underbelly of the Twentieth Century–the Jews."???
Oh, and look!

I beg to differ with you….There is a "missing link" and it resides at 1600 Pa. Ave….It's a Sasquatch and it's name is Moochelle!"

not a missing 'human' link though. Something else…"
Wow, racist much Dr. Kate???

OMG, I was just visiting friends. Obot friends. We usually don't get into politics for the health of our relationship but he started it. I have had a feeling they would be sympathizers with OWS and they are. When I stated what it was all about they disagreed with me, of course. "They" are poor kids who can't get jobs, etc, etc, etc. Of course they get all of their news from the Tee Vee. I told them to make use of their computer and look up Mockingbird but he said he wasn't going to look up anything. Stupid idiots. I get so angry when people, friends and family, tell me that I am being misinformed by what I find on the internet. You can't reason with them so I stopped trying. Their heads will stay in the sand."
October 16, 2011 at 9:56 pm
I agree. Does obama think they are all going to the polls next year and vote for him? We need to get him behind bars before then. When they find out what a criminal he is they won't be able to handle it.
I cannot understand the concept of thinking capitolism and free enterprize is bad. My friend this evening went off on a tangent about all of the jobs having been outsourced as if that validates OWS. I don't see how that relates to why those brats are up there. They wouldn't want a job if they were offered one. They just want to be taken care of by the government like they have been taken care of by their parents. How do they think their grandparents survived the great depression? By having the opportunity of capitolism and free enterprize! BTW, my daughter who is one of the worst obamabots says she believes in capitolism and free enterprize! How does that figure?"
*Cough cough WPA cough CCC......*
Really what NNN is telling her family and friends is "my mind is made up, don't confuse me with facts."
16 October - Dr. Orly threatens a new FOIA lawsuit, this one against Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. (malware and redirect warning)

There's a copy of her ramblings here on Scribd. I don't want to comment until she actually files this piece of tripe though.
16 October - At the Pest and eFail, Thomas MacLearan aka "One Pissed-off Vietnam Vet" talks about "physical involvement"
"One definition of a physical involvement would be to sail my cruiser up the Potomac but, alas, I can't do that since they've sent her to the recycling bin years ago."
Aww, how cute, he's referring to a military coup!
"Quite amazing, entertaining and interesting to watch: the complete and utter takeover of a country by circumventing the very laws that make up the essence of the United States and her Constitution. And there is no way it couldn't have happened without the express approval and participation of both political parties, law enforcement, the Joint Chief of Staff, the Federal Reserve Bank, and our not-to-be-trusted mainstream media."
You forgot the Gnomes of Zurich, the Bavarian Illuminati, and Skippy the Wonder Koala.
"Untold thousands of well-meaning but naive individuals, thousands of greedy individuals who sold out their country for thirty pieces of silver or for a couple of million (the amount is of no account; it's the intent that is paramount), and thousands who turned traitor by actively taking a leading role in trashing our Constitution, as our worthless Attorney General did for failing to prosecute "his people" for voter intimidation, all deserve to be fined, undergo loss of pension, loss of liberty, or loss of life if they don't succeed in destroying America."
"Loss of life", eh??
"Voices echoing on deaf ears to millions about the need to be understanding and tolerant will result only in their throats being slit by a régime that worships death while we cherish life."
Says the man calling for the death sentence for anyone he calls a "traitor"
"There is no way for America to win her freedoms back unless it is done physically. The enemy will not give up without a fight, and we will not win our country back without one."
I see he's back to calling for an insurrection and coup.
16 October - At Birther Report, Haskins "Keystone Kops" video is reposted. It's interesting to note that while comments are allowed in this birther echo chamber, they've been blocked at YouTube. I guess Haskins doesn't want to hear from anyone who's not part of the party faithful.
16 October - Do you remember Dr. Orly's Glorious People's Victory in Moscow (Idaho)? The one where she confronted Chief Justice John Roberts and handed over to him a mass of her legal droppings??

Cue the tiny violins.
17 October - STRIKE ONE!! Judge Lamberth rules on Dr. Orly's motion to reconsider his decision in Dr. Orly's SSA lawsuit.
"10/17/201 139 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER denying 36 Motion for Reconsideration. Signed by Chief Judge Royce C. Lamberth on October 17, 2011. (lcrcl2) (Entered: 10/17/2011)"
(Scribd link here)
"Plaintiff first argues for reconsideration based on new evidence that purportedly undermines President Obama's privacy interest in the Form SS-5 for the Social Security number at issue. The primary piece of new evidence upon which plaintiff relies is President Obama's posting of his 2009 tax return to the Web site http://www.whitehouse.gov. Plaintiff alleges that users of the computer program Adobe Illustrator can remove the redaction of the President's Social Security number in the document and display the number xxx-xx-4425; therefore, plaintiff argues, the President relinquished any privacy interest he held in his association to that number. Assuming arguendo that plaintiff is correct, the document is no grounds for reconsideration. Rule 59(e) does not permit reconsideration solely because a party wishes to submit previously available evidence. Messina v. Krakower, 439 F.3d 755, 759 (D.C. Cir. 2006). The President posted his tax return on April 15, 2010 – well before plaintiff filed her complaint on February 16, 2011. Accordingly, the document is not "new evidence" under Rule 59(e) and cannot serve as the basis for reconsideration."
"Similarly, plaintiff submits an affidavit that an individual used the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services' E-Verify Self Check system, which returned an error message showing an unexplained discrepancy between the President and the Social Security number at issue. Apparently, plaintiff is arguing that, if one online database confirms the President's use of the number, and another database shows some mismatch between the President and this number, the President must be engaging in fraud. This constitutes nothing more than an unsubstantiated "bare suspicion" of wrongdoing"
"Finally, plaintiff tries to submit as new evidence newspaper reports regarding the allegedly illegal use, by two relatives of the President, of other Social Security numbers. The Court will not give credence to plaintiff's attempt to impugn the President with the alleged misconduct of others."
Swat. Oh, and the footnotes:
"1 The Court is loath to dignify plaintiff's allegations of fraud with a response on the merits. However, suffice it to say that plaintiff's argument is premised on the incorrect assumption that Social Security numbers assigned prior to 1973 have any correlation to the recipient's residence, see Employer Filing Instructions and Information, http://www.socialsecurity.gov/employer/stateweb.htm ("Prior to 1973, social security numbers were assigned by our field offices. The [first three] number[s] merely established that his/her card was issued by one of our offices in that State."). Plaintiff's entire premise is totally defeated by a cursory examination of this site, which demonstrates that plaintiff's allegations lack any basis in fact.
2 Furthermore, the Court notes that individuals may only use the E-Verify Self Check service to check their own employment eligibility, and that to do so an individual must answer a series of private questions before gaining access to the system. See Self Check : Terms of Use, https://selfcheck.uscis.gov/SelfCheckUI."
"Finally, plaintiff alleges manifest injustice by repeating her claims of fraud and misconduct, but against fails to substantiate them in any way whatsoever, much less to the degree required to overcome an individual's privacy interest in the information contained in a Form SS-5. None of plaintiff's arguments provides this Court any doubt that reconsideration would be inappropriate."
For the reasons discussed above, it is hereby
ORDERED that the plaintiff's motion for reconsideration is DENIED.
Signed by Royce C. Lamberth, Chief Judge, on October 17, 2011."
Oh, that's gonna smart.......
And, since this was now dismissed, it means her hearing in Honolulu hearing in the Federal Court there is now....moot.
17 October - STRIKE THREE!!! YOU'RE OUT!!! Dr. Orly's lawsuit against White House Counsel Kathy Rummler gets a ruling from Judge Lamberth.
"10/17/20 116 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER granting 4 Motion to Dismiss. Signed by Chief Judge Royce C. Lamberth on October 17, 2011. (lcrcl2) (Entered: 10/17/2011)"
(Scribd link here)
"As part of her Sisyphean quest to prove that President Barack Obama is using a fake Social Security number and a forged birth certificate, plaintiff filed the instant Complaint [1]. Plaintiff seeks access under the Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA"), 5 U.S.C. § 552, to the two certified copies of the original long form birth certificate of Barack Obama1 currently in possession of the defendant, White House Counsel Kathy Ruemmler. The defendant filed the instant motion to dismiss, arguing that FOIA does not apply to the White House Counsel's office. This Court agrees. The Act only applies to agencies, and while the textual definition of "agency" contained in 5 U.S.C. § 552(f) is seemingly broad enough to cover any Executive agency, the Supreme Court has long held that the President's personal staff and advisors are not "agencies" subject to FOIA requests."
*Raises eyebrow*
"Indeed, this Court as recently as last year noted that "the White House Counsel's Office [has] been excluded from FOIA's definition of agency . . . ." Alexander v. FBI, 691 F. Supp. 2d 182, 189 (D.D.C. 2010). Plaintiff thus cannot seek relief against the defendant under FOIA."
You would think Dr. Orly would check to see what the judge has ruled on in the past.
"There is no reason to believe that the Office of the White House Counsel's involvement in the release and continued retention of the birth certificate is independent in any sense or outside the traditional auspices of the office. Plaintiff's entire argument for application of FOIA to this case is simply a restatement of her conclusory allegations that the President and his Administration are committing a fraud. Such threadbare assertions are irrelevant to the status of the White House Counsel's Office as an entity exempt from FOIA."
"It is therefore hereby ORDERED that defendant's motion to dismiss is GRANTED, and plaintiff's suit is dismissed with prejudice.
Signed by Royce C. Lamberth, Chief Judge, on October 17, 2011."
Dismissed with prejudice no less....
17 October - Oh dear. Dr. Orly doesn't look happy...... (malware and redirect warning)

In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease. In 1998 I founded The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore!, and I am the co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.View all articles by Scott Adams

Abstract: The complete amino acid sequence of an alpha-type gliadin from spelt wheat (spelt) has been deduced from the cloned DNA sequence and compared with alpha-type gliadin sequences from bread wheat. The comparison showed only minor differences in amino acid sequences between the alpha-type gliadin from bread wheat and thegliadins, alpha, beta, gamma, and omega, appear to be active in celiac disease, it is reasonably certain that the spelta gliadin is also toxic. We conclude that spelta is not a safe grain for people with celiac disease, contrary to the implications in labeling a bread made from spelt as an alternative to wheat. Our conclusions are in accord with spelt and bread wheat being classed taxonomically as subspecies of the same genus and species, Triticum aestivum L. [References: 36]

12/8/2011: Rock of Safety Ministries had their tax-exempt status revoked for the last 3 years. They minister in churches and elsewhere (in this country and abroad) accepting donations from people and organizations that believe their donations are tax-deductible. They have deleted the wording 'donations are tax-deductible' from their website, however, it states that a receipt will be issued to the donor. Debbie Stephens is involved with Payson Humane Society and Bobby Stephens works doing odd jobs. I am aware that they have their earnings funneled through their ministry (having any employers make the checks out to their ministry) avoiding having to pay taxes. I have made them aware of their revocation status and Bobby became very defiant requesting me to be confidential about it. I am very much for advancing the kingdom of God but they are not doing it legally.

The economy has claimed another retail casualty.
This story first appeared in the June 10, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Joining the likes of The Sharper Image and Linens-N-Things, Goody's Family Clothing Inc. on Monday filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy court protection, a casualty of both the economy and its own missteps, from expansion into urban areas to introducing higher-priced merchandise.
The financial environment is pressuring retailers across the price spectrum, with declines in comp-store sales and widespread markdowns adding up to what industry executives say are some of the worst business conditions in recent memory. Credit sources are keeping close tabs on Mervyns after its credit approval for $40 million in orders was withdrawn by CIT Group Inc. last month, and Gottschalks Inc., due to its many California locations in areas where consumers are cash-strapped and elect to purchase necessities instead of what's new in fashion.
The Knoxville, Tenn.-based Goody's, which filed its voluntary petition in Delaware, said it plans to streamline its business and reorganize. Nineteen Goody's affiliates also filed on the same day. They include GFC Aircraft Leasing; Goody's MS; Goody's Retail MS; Goody's Giftco and Goody's Holding TN.
Goody's has arranged a $210 million debtor-in-possession financing facility. The DIP financing includes $175 million under a revolving credit facility from General Electric Capital Corp.; $15 million under a term loan facility from GB Merchant Partners, an affiliate of Gordon Brothers, and $20 million under a junior term loan from PGDYS Lending, an affiliate of Goody's parent, Prentice Capital Management.
Prentice is no stranger to bankruptcies. It bought Levitz Furniture during its second bankruptcy in 2005, which subsequently entered its third tour of bankruptcy and was liquidated in November. Prentice also provided financing to G&G Retail when it was in bankruptcy in 2006, and tried to acquire the company, but was outbid by BCBG Max Azria Group.
The retailer in its filing did not list its largest secured creditors, but credit analysts believe Goody's lender CIT tops that list.
The top two unsecured creditors are: Levi Strauss & Co. in Eugene, Ore. ($9.1 million) and Lee Co. in Charlotte, N.C. ($4.7 million). Other apparel vendors who made the top 20 unsecured creditors list include Jeri-Jo Knitwear Inc., Edison, N.J. ($3 million); Skechers USA Inc., Manhattan Beach, Calif. ($1.9 million); Unionbay Sportswear, Seattle ($1.7 million); Larry Levine/E-LO Sportswear, Harrison, N.J. ($1.3 million), and Gloria Vanderbilt, New York ($1.1 million).
"We plan to close 69 underperforming stores, consolidate our distribution centers by closing one facility in Russellville, Ark., significantly reduce expenses, and create a more appropriate capital structure," said Paul White, Goody's chief executive officer.
Bob Carbonell, the chief credit officer at Bernard Sands, a credit checking firm, said, "As in every bankruptcy, we will await the judge's ruling on DIP financing and examination of the terms of the financing agreements before recommending shipments to our clients."
In a filing with the bankruptcy court, David Peek, executive vice president, chief financial officer and secretary, said, "The debtors have experienced operational losses for the past three years [which] are the result of a number of factors, including the tightening of the credit markets, a strain on merchandise flow and a sizeable, but isolated number of underperforming stores in the chain."
One credit analyst noted four geographic areas that have been pressured by a pullback in consumer spending: California, Nevada, Arizona and Florida. He cited Mervyns, which has stores concentrated in California, Nevada and Arizona, and Gottschalks, which has stores in California, as retailers that also are taking some lumps as consumers feel the heat of the economic downturn. The analyst also believes that some of Goody's underperforming stores were in Florida, where the retailer has six sites. In addition, some stores in the Atlanta area are likely unprofitable as many of those leases also include expensive monthly rent tabs, the analyst said.
The analyst said the blame for poor performance can't be placed entirely on the economy. "The economy was the final straw, but not the only reason. The company had been underperforming even when the economy had been good," he said.
Some said Goody's, which did well targeting the rural consumer in smaller markets, should never have traded up by opening stores in urban locations, where it met competition from the better apparel-focused retailers such as Kohl's Corp. and J.C. Penney Co. Inc.
Another misstep was when the retailer elected not to communicate with the trade last summer, which caused some factors to pull back on approvals for orders, one credit analyst said. A financial source said the lack of communication left a "bad impression" among members of the trade.
Also hurting Goody's was the higher-priced merchandise of some of its private label goods. The average for an Ashley Judd-branded item was $30, compared with a $15 ticket price for most goods in the store, one financial source said. Goody's in June 2007 inked a deal with the actress for three exclusive labels, namely AJ; Love, Ashley, and Ashley Judd. The collections range from organic and knit T-shirts and sweaters to blazers, blouses, cardigans and pants. The deal also includes an extensive denim offering featuring Judd's signature stitching on the back pockets and floral details on the inside waistband.
Peek, in his filing, said the company employs nearly 10,000 full-time and part-time employees. As of May 3, Goody's had assets of $313 million and liabilities of $443 million. In 2007, the retailer posted $1.1 billion in revenue, but sustained net operating losses of $128 million. For the three months ended May 3, the retailer suffered an additional $9.6 million loss. Earlier this year, Goody's shuttered 18 stores. According to Peek, those stores were selected either because they were too large, not in Goody's targeted small to midsize markets, or just unprofitable.
Goody's targeted value-conscious consumers with an average household income of $55,000. The company describes its business strategy and operation as a moderately priced family apparel specialty store operating in small to midsize markets primarily through the Southeast. The retailers' key national brands include Adidas, Levi's, Nike, Dockers, Chaps, Reebok, Lee and Alfred Dunner. Goody's private brand collections include Ivy Crew, Mountain Lake, Duck Head Jeans Co., Kid Crew and Ashley Judd.
Despite the company's goal to reorganize, there are doubts about its ability to do so, as well as questions regarding its niche in the market.
One credit source said Goody's has many economic negatives going against it at the moment, namely the price of gas and the cost of food. Another financial source said so far, retailers that have gone into bankruptcy have been unable to restructure, instead going the liquidation route because the new rules shorten the tour in bankruptcy as well as the time in which to decide what store leases to reject.

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office released the identity of a Cleveland motorcyclist who died in a Thursday morning crash.
James Johnson, 41, crashed about 1:00 a.m. on Interstate 77 southbound at Interstate 90, Cleveland police said.
Johnson was riding a 1993 Harley Davidson when he inexplicably drove off the roadway and flipped his motorcycle, police said.
An emergency medical crew drove Johnson to MetroHealth Medical Center, where he died from his injuries, according to the medical examiner.
The medical examiner's office did not immediately return a request to know whether a toxicology test would be performed.

Help with choosing a wave board!

Help with choosing a wave board!
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a new wave board and need some help making a choice. I want to go Starboard but I'm not sure which one. I'm 6ft and 155lbs, will be sailing in gusty B+J but with this board mostly waves and big swell. Up here in Ottawa, the closest we have to real wave sailing is the great lakes. I already have a 2005 95L Kombat, so I'd like something to compliment that in higher wind and handles a 3.7, 4.5, and 5.3.
This is what I'm looking at:
2005 Acid 74L
2006 Evo 74L
2005 Evo 74L
Obviously I'm considering the 2005's for the price* advantage.
So I guess the dilemma is choosing the Evo or the Acid. The 2005 Acid 74L appeals to me for it's aggressive, pure wave riding performance, however, I'd be sacrificing performance in the marginal conditions and B+J.
The 2006 PA 80L appeals to me for the sail range, but also the capability of pure wave riding AND high speed B+J. Disadvantage: price*.
The Evo's, in general, appeal to me for their obvious performance advantage in marginal wind conditions and less than perfect wave conditions. Again, only considering the 2005 Evo for the price advantage, however, I'd like to know what the differences are between the 2005 Evo and 2006 Evo.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Georgetown College cross country teams continue to challenge themselves against larger fields of competition, including numerous NCAA teams. Friday evening was no different in the Jenna Strong Classic. The men had steady progress throughout the race as the Tigers were 33rd 600-meters into the race and 1,400-meters later were at 29th. At the end of the 8,000-meter race, GC finished 28th.
On the women's side, it was consistency. At the two check points, same as the men, the female Tigers were 22nd and that is where they finished at the end of the 5,000-meter race in a pack of 38 teams.
"This is the best race the men have run all season by a long shot," said GC coach Lucas Garnett. "The men have had a rough go so far – injuries, illnesses, various setbacks. It was awesome to finally see them all well and together on the same day.
"We had seven men running and had seven season best times – I like those numbers – with three personal records and one not far off. We have a very young team with a ton of potential. They are just now starting to show what they are capable of doing."
The dynamic twosome of Georgetown College women's cross country continue to challenge and push each other, helping the Tigers as a whole get stronger. For the fifth race this season Julia Manning finished first for coach Lucas Garnett's women harriers and crossing second was Karina Egger.
"Neither would be doing what they are doing without the other," Garnett said. "In practice and in meets they are helping to push and support each other. They've been one-two for us all season.
"Even more impressive today with Karina is she was running with muscle cramps and had her third fastest time as a Tiger."
The women took seventh in the Fast Cats Classic Saturday in Owensboro, Ky. as did the men.
October kicks off another drive for the Georgetown College men's and women's cross country teams. Following the overwhelming success of the shoe campaign a year ago, the Tigers once again are collecting worn out or no longer worn shoes.
Check your closets and bring in all shoes you no longer want. Drop them off in designated bins around campus. Unwearable shoes will be recycled to create synthetic surfaces for playgrounds and tracks, while all the good shoes will be donated to the AMEN House for the local charity to distribute to those in need.
The evening is called a Blessing Ball for a reason. It is not just a kind gesture to a special group of individuals, but a full on blessing for everyone involved. Georgetown College men's and women's cross country teams once again participated in this fun filled evening at Leesburg Christian Church.
"We had 22 go this year, that's four more than last year and many of them have been looking forward to this since we left the ball a year ago," said GC coach Lucas Garnett. "All our volunteers spent the evening dining, dancing and playing games with their special guests."
Each student-athlete had a wide variety of experiences as some of their dates wanted to boogie all night long, never leaving the dance floor; others wanted to have long conversations with their college dates; and still others wanted to play bingo or "Let's Make a Deal."
Georgetown College men's and women's cross country teams headed back to Berea for a tough run in the Berea College Invitational.
"This is a true cross country course," said GC coach Lucas Garnett. "This leads to some interesting times as you have to cross a creek, run across trails and gravel terrain. It is probably the most entertaining of courses for the spectators as well as racers that we see all season."
The women took fourth, only being beaten by one NAIA school, edging Mid-South Conference rival Campbellsville University at the line and beating three NCAA schools.
"Our ladies had a solid finish with Julia (Manning) leading the way again," Garnett said. "Karina (Egger) gave us a second runner in the top 20 for our two award winners that day."
GC tallied 132 points to CU's 134. Campbellsville had more runners finish in the top 30, but Georgetown had all five finish in top 37. CU's final runner came in at 40th.

It's almost predictable: The Legislature, fearing political fallout, fails to raise tuition year after year, while cutting state support so dramatically that SUNY's mission is compromised. Then, when things get so bad, they "save" SUNY with a big tuition increase.
There is a better way, one that has been endorsed by the SUNY Student Assembly and by local campuses across the state: a tuition plan that allows for fair, predictable increases annually so SUNY can grow and thrive, and students and their families can plan ahead.
SUNY students advocating for a plan that would result in any kind of tuition increase may come as a surprise to some, but not if you have paid attention to what has been happening on our campuses. In the wake of $1.1 billion in cuts over the last three years, campuses have been forced to phase out programs. Geneseo eliminated its communication disorders program; New Paltz cut its nursing program; and Albany scaled back several languages. With the cuts proposed this year, SUNY will have to absorb nearly $400 million more in cuts, for a four-year total negative impact of $1.5 billion. That means even more cutbacks on campuses.
Simply put, keeping tuition at the current level is just not sustainable, and it does not support access and affordability in the long term. That's why for more than three years, the Student Assembly has proposed a rational tuition policy that would ensure annual, predictable increases that are fair, equitable and responsible.
Unfortunately, the state Legislature has been slow to take up this issue. We understand lawmakers' concern about pricing students out of the system. But layering more cuts on top of the previous three years goes against New York's pledge to provide access to quality education. And if we don't adopt a sensible tuition plan, pricing students out of the system won't even be an issue if they can't find the programs they want in the SUNY system.
We remain hopeful the Legislature, and the governor, will recognize that there is a better way forward for SUNY. They recognize that SUNY can and must be an economic engine for the state and help create good jobs that will allow students to stay here at home after graduation.
There is more to do, clearly. We must restore the massive budget cuts, repeal Bundy Aid (state taxpayer money for private universities), implement sensible procurement reform and develop plans to engage county legislatures to meet their financial commitments on behalf of community colleges.
But by leaving tuition unchanged, students are destined to enter yet another cycle with years of stagnation followed by unmanageable, harsh increases to compensate for the irresponsible past. A fair and predictable tuition plan is a rational way of thinking, and a critical safety net for the protection of students and their families.
Julie Gondar is president of the Student Assembly of the State University of
New York, elected by student representatives from all 64 campuses in the SUNY system.
Increasing tuition at SUNY schools
will burden lower-class students
To the Editor:
A March 7 letter by the president of SUNY ESF applauds the SUNY Student Assembly for supporting a plan to increase tuition. Why? This will prevent so many lower-class students from being able to pay for college.
In the United States, jobs are becoming harder to get without a degree, and increasing the tuition is not a good idea because fewer high school graduates will be able to attend. College is supposed to brighten young adults' futures, but if tuition is too much of a burden, it won't. We're going to college to get a better job that makes more money, but most of that income will go to paying off student loans if costs continue to rise.
The students are the future. Why destroy the future of the country for the sake of money? If politicians in Albany raise SUNY tuition, we students will remember come re-election time!
Kelly Bell
SUNY has absorbed more than
its fair share of state budget cuts
To the Editor:
SUNY ESF President Cornelius Murphy is right on target with his letter regarding proposed budget cuts to the SUNY system. The SUNY system has a tremendous positive impact on the economy of New York state. Here in central New York, both SUNY ESF and the Upstate Medical University provide thousands of jobs and train thousands of students in the medical, environmental, biological and countless other fields. Upstate Medical itself is the largest employer in the Syracuse area, with over 6,300 employees and $359 million in combined salaries.
What Murphy did not mention is the severity of the proposed cuts.
SUNY has absorbed far more than its share of state budget cuts. More than a quarter of New York's total state spending reductions — almost $600 million over the past two years — have been levied on SUNY. If the governor's latest $100 million cut is passed, SUNY campuses will have lost a third of their annual operating budgets in just three years.
Like other educational institutions, the SUNY system educates the next generation, preparing them for jobs and the challenges that face this nation and humankind. It is common knowledge that jobs have become increasingly technical and knowledge-based. A high percentage of new jobs require a minimum of a bachelor's degree; many require an advanced degree. New York state would be doing itself a great disservice to cut the SUNY budget yet again.
Donald J. Hughes
'Rational tuition' policy simply
guarantees annual price increases
To the Editor:
The call to raise tuition to offset budget cuts in the March 17 editorial "SUNY Tuition: There's merit in plan for 'rational' increases" is not a viable option if higher education is to be available for all New Yorkers. The so-called "rational tuition" policy is nothing more than a guarantee of annual tuition hikes that do little to curb gigantic increases in the future.
Under New York state law, budgetary decisions made now cannot bind the budgetary decisions of future legislatures. Thus a promise to keep tuition hikes to no more than a minimal rate is a promise that cannot be kept. Indeed, current law that limits community college tuition hikes is routinely ignored.
So-called "rational tuition hikes" are a bad deal for college students and their families for another reason. The proposal allows tuition hikes that exceed annual inflation. As a result, students will be paying far more over time than their families might get in pay increases.
Public financial aid is not expected to keep pace with these proposed increases in tuition. In fact, Gov. Andrew Cuomo is maintaining former Gov. David Paterson's changes to eligibility requirements to New York's largest public financial aid program, the Tuition Assistance Program.
Without guaranteed financial aid protections, the poorest students may be denied access to SUNY colleges.
New Yorkers shouldn't buy into this scheme to hike SUNY tuition with no real guarantee of protection from future tuition hikes. Higher education is a road to opportunity, and rising tuition will be a roadblock to future success. Support New Yorkers by keeping college costs down.

Living the free life.
Freemium is often the bane of the App Store. But Freemium done right can work wonders for a game, as EA's latest Sims title proves.
The Sims Freeplay is different to the other Sims games already available on the App Store. For one, it's actually a lot closer to the original PC games than those other apps. Secondly, everything is real-time. Going to bed actually and sleeping takes around the same time it would in real life, going to work means getting your Sims up and out the house at 8am and then back home at 4pm or whenever the work hours are.
In fact the timing element really is a game-changer and it'll be the one thing that makes you either love or hate this game. Having to wait while your Sim takes a shower can be frustrating. But throw in 3 or 4 more Sims and you'll be managing them all with no time to worry about waiting for one of them to complete their task.
The Tutorial takes you through all the actions, menus and task variations that you'll need to achieve to earn Simolians, the in game currency. A secondary type of currency, Lifestyle Points, are earned by raising your Sims levels and completing missions. These points allow you to complete a task instantly, useful for those in a hurry or who don't want to play the game in realtime. But they are also essential for buying bigger items, some of which are required for later tasks.
The Freemium aspect does seem to be well balanced throughout the game, mainly because the early missions from the tutorial onwards actually provide you with quite a few in return for completing tasks or even to complete the task itself. However, after a few days play I reached a few missions that asked for quite a few points without providing anything in return. This could well be an issue if you've already spent the points and there's no telling when the game will ask you to buy something in order to continue.
You can always bypass the missions and carry on with the day to day activities until you have enough Lifestyle points to continue, but it will often take a fair amount of time to build these up. But then you can argue that this game is initially free and EA need to make money at the end of the day. In the game's defence, it never feels totally unfair when you're asked to shell out money, it's just a case of balancing your in-game spending.
Graphically, The Sims Freeplay is the best looking Sims game on iOS yet, especially if you're playing on iPad. Though there are times when pressing on a wall or item will result in bringing up the wrong options, it's mostly easy to navigate thanks to the detail in the graphics and ability to easily zoom and rotate the whole scene. Detail is also key in producing those funny moments where Sims excels; the showering, flirting and all the other things that your Sims will get up to are captured perfectly here.
Ultimately, whether you enjoy the game or not will depend on whether you can see past the freemium tag and if you get on with the real-time actions. Some may find it a good fit with their own life and others will just get annoyed with having to wait so long for your little friend to finish a task.
For me, though, EA's latest Sims is the best Sims game on iOS, particularly if you're playing on iPad. It's just as addictive as the other good freemium titles out there (Tiny Towers, Smurfs Village) even if it does take a bit of grinding to get anywhere.

My baby was 6 weeks early and spent 10 days in the NICU receiving formula, with no attempts to BF. In addition to the obstacle, I also had a breast reduction 11 years ago. I have been pumping religiously since day 1, every 2-3 hours for 15-20 minutes (Medela Lactina). My supply is increasing, but still getting about 1.5 oz per session. I'm hoping it will continue to increase (just started More Milk Special Blend).
I am attempting to put baby to the breast when she exhibits hunger signs and prior to scheduled feedings. What I'm having a hard time with is how to schedule the nursing, pumping, bottle feeding routine. If I pump prior to nursing (immediately), my nipples seem to be way to large for my little baby (she's still only 5lbs). Any suggestions on how to do this routine? Should I pump everytime we attempt nursing? When you aren't EBF, how can you tell how much the baby is getting from the breast?
I know the suggestion will be to see an LC, I did and she wasnt any help at all (saw 2x). I'm going to see if there are any others in the area and will attend a LLL mtg this coming week.
