Here's an idea: Keep your ultra-liberal, lefty fingers out of my pocket. I compared the effect of the "15% credit" (as envisioned above) against my actual federal income tax liability (for 2012). The "credit" would have saved me about $1,434 (against what my federal income tax liability would have been without the mortgage interest deduction). But, my actual federal income tax liability (for 2012) was $2,220 less (than what it would have been without the mortgage interest deduction). In other words, with the "credit" (vs. the deduction), I would have paid $786 MORE in federal income tax. NO WAY. We're a middle-class family that's made good use of the mortgage interest deduction for 18 years - if you want to 'cap' it (at a certain income level, or value of real estate, or amount of interest paid), that's one thing. But making my middle-class taxes go UP BY OVER 10% in the bargain? I say again: NO WAY!
Has the Housing Movement Found Something to Unite Around?
Posted by Miriam Axel-Lute on March 18, 2013
I've been around the affordable housing field for a little while (not as long as many of our readers though I realize), and I've sat through a lot of discussions about whether or not housing has a natural constituency, about how how we can get it on the political agenda, about how we need to speak with one voice and go on the offensive, and so on. You probably have too.
So I have to say that there's a palpably difference feel at the National Low Income Housing Coalition's annual conference this year. While it's always a place where a lot of education, networking, inspiring, and strategizing happens, this year pretty much everything going on here is bent on one goal:
Fund the National Housing Trust Fund by reforming the Mortgage Interest Deduction, and thereby end homelessness.
To do this, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) introduced the Common Sense Housing Investment Act last Friday. The act would:
- Replace the mortgage interest deduction with a nonrefundable 15 percent tax credit, making it available to homeowners who don't itemize deductions.
- Lower the cap from mortgages of $1 million to $500,000.
- Phase in over 5 years.
- Save $196 billion over 10 years, which would be directed to the National Housing Trust Fund ($109 billion), as well as Section 8, public housing capital funding, and the low-income housing tax credit.
This is no symbolic wouldn't-it-be-nice campaign.
NLIHC announced today that they were committing $1 million of their endowment to the campaign, which they are calling United for Homes. They have 1,000 organizations endorsing the campaign, and aiming for thousands more. They are working with Right to the City, and their new campaign, Homes for All, which has made NHTF funding part of its platform and its rallying stories and action at the grassroots.
They have polling data too (not online yet, but should be soon), and it's impressive. 60 percent of respondents support reforming the mortgage interest deduction in the ways Rep. Ellison's bill does. And 74 percent believed at least some of the savings should be spend on fighting homelessness. Broken down by demographic categories, it varied, certainly, but even among Republicans, a majority favored using at least some of the savings for ending homelessness.
I find many things interesting about this campaign, including the boldness of the vision--ending homelessness--with a specific, concrete plan to do it that doesn't involve a single step that is a political non-starter.
From the inside, what is particularly unusual is that the plan benefits both homeowners and renters. The reform itself would bring tax relief to millions of homeowners who before could not access it, and they are estimating that that, along with the predictability of it being a credit, will also increase homeownership by 2.5 percent. Then, of course, the lowest income renters, those who are hardest to serve with our existing programs, will be targeted by the Trust Fund.
This is a win-win across tenure types, a fact which NLIHC, which is used to focusing on extremely low-income renters, is going to have to remember to play up. Right to the City, whose members include tenant and homeowner groups, will likely lend a hand on that score. I hope organizations that have been focused on foreclosure relief and/or expanding homeownership also step up.
Given how long we've been writing about the mortgage interest deduction, it's fascinating to see it take a swift dive in just a few years from the untouchable third rail to something that many are speaking openly of reforming, from the right-wing/libertarian Cato Institute to the Bipartisan Policy Center. If NLIHC has been prescient enough to be at the right place at the right time to push reform on its terms and steer some of the benefits toward addressing the housing crisis, that will be a major, major win.
Conference participants will be off to the hill Wednesday to beat the bushes for cosponsors. We'll be following up with Rep. Ellison and the partner groups as the campaign progresses.

As North Seattle so gracefully demonstrates, trying to eliminate the MID by tying in a replacement strategy probably won't fly. There is broad agreement for phase out of the MID for a wide range of reasons that fit both conservative and liberal agendas.
Eliminating the MID only is achievable, doing so in conjunction with funding a new policy will be much more difficult. Let's target the win we can get and phase out the MID entirely over a 10 year period.

EBENSBURG — Jan Brocious wants her Marion Center Stingers to be the best defensive team in the district, and on Friday night, they played that part well.
The Stingers allowed just one field goal through the first 12 minutes of the game and held on in the second half for a 44-37 upset of No. 2 Westmont Hilltop in the District 6 Class AA girls' basketball quarterfinals at Central Cambria High School.
Marion Center kept the Hilltoppers off-balance for most of the night and never lost the lead.
"Those girls have huge smiles on their faces tonight," Brocious said. "We honestly want to be the best team on defense in District 6, and tonight, we came out and played the defense we know how to play. I told them they didn't have to do anything more than just play to their ability because they are good players and we are a good team."
Seventh-seeded Marion Center (20-4) raced to an 11-0 lead and shut out the Hilltoppers until the 2:46 mark in the first quarter.
"They started on that run before we even had an offensive set," Westmont coach Jodi Hillegass said. "So that's what started us out playing catch-up from the very beginning."
The Stingers move on to the semifinals, where they will clash with third-seeded Juniata (20-2) at a site and time to be determined.
Juniata beat Tyrone, 44-36, on Friday.
"We're just excited to keep playing," said Chantel Glasser, who led Marion Center with 17 points.
"We know we aren't ready to be done. We knew we could win this game. This was one of the goals we've been working toward all year, and we proved a lot tonight."
The Stingers lost to the Hilltoppers in their second game of the season, 48-38, at the Marion Center tip-off tournament Dec. 7.
"We knew quite a bit about them," Glasser said. "We played them in our tournament, we watched some film, and we executed our game plan well. It worked out for us."
"They come to our tournament, and the last couple years, we let them get up on us in the first quarter," Brocious said.
"We didn't do a good job when we played them the first time. We fought back and lost by 10 points. We preached to the girls that if they really came ready to play, we could beat them. They believed that tonight."
It didn't take much convincing, and after jumping out to a 17-6 lead in the first quarter, Marion Center's jitters disappeared.
"They're a disciplined team," Hillegass said of the Stingers. "They have their four senior starters, so we knew they weren't going to want to come out and lose. They were playing with urgency and desire, and that was hard for us to match."
Marion Center scored just four points in the second quarter but still took a 21-13 lead into halftime.
"I knew they weren't going to just roll over and die in the second half," Brocious said. "They were going to keep coming at us until the very end. They're a good team, well-coached and a scrappy team. It was a battle out there."
Megan Zolnosky hit a 3-point field goal late in the third quarter to pull the Hilltoppers within four, 28-24. But Marion Center answered with an 11-2 run that seemingly put the game out of reach.
"We don't want to walk out of here without our best effort," Hillegass said. "From the get-go, we always had to come from behind. We were chasing the whole game, and we couldn't get over that hump. But we didn't give up. Nobody wins until the end, so you have to play all the way through until the end. We still could've won the second half."
The Hilltoppers gave themselves another chance, but it was too little too late. Zolnosky drained a second 3-pointer with 1:03 left in the game to pull within four again, but that was as close as Westmont would get.
Kearsten Brocious added 11 points for the Stingers, and Karlie Snyder led the team with six rebounds.
"We got rattled a little bit, but we calmed down for a second and knew that we could keep playing the way we know how," Glasser said. "We just kept it together and kept fighting."
They'll have to fight some more if they want to knock out a strong Juniata team in the semifinals. Last year, Marion Center topped Bishop McCort in the play-in game before falling to top-seeded Bald Eagle Area in overtime in the quarterfinals.
"There are some very good teams in District 6 this year," Brocious said. "We told the girls that there are no more easy games. We have to come with our game on or we go home. They understand that, and they want to keep going. The experience we gained from last year will definitely help, and they want this."

Modified V-bumper teaser
Just picked up my V bumper from the body shop.
I had them remove the splitter bar in the right and left openings, to create one uniform opening.....I won't be putting the lights in them......I will be relocating the turn signals, and running no fog lights (for now), the opening will have a piece of steel mesh (matching the V grills) and secured to the bumper from the rear.
These are teaser pics.....I won't be painting the bumper, as the whole car is getting a vinyl wrap.
Interesting mod!! Id like to see where you relocate the turns though...subscribed.
Re: Modified V-bumper teaser
Wow, my stock V6 bumper has opening just like that.
I am thinking about taking the DRL's/turn-signals out, relocating them behind a billet grill, and plumbing front brake cooling ducts into the openings that actually have the hoses leading back to the rotors.
But I want V-car brakes/hubs/rims first. I have already seem threads about modifying Camaro brake duct kits to fit the Vee brakes. There are probably CTS-V brake duct kits out there by now, I just havent even looked into for a while because I am poor.
Nice mod, though, keep us posted.

BEATLES REIMAGINED: Full Album Stream on NYLON Magazine
Adventure Galley - "Please Please Me"
What was your goal with your cover? "Our goal for the cover was to create a totally original sounding piece of music that did justice to The Beatles' original song, resembled our own writing style, and yet is completely unique from both. We wanted to do something interesting and different with The Beatles song, but also get out of our own songwriting box and try new things." --Brock Grenfell
Doom & Gloom - "And I Love Her"
How did you make the track your own? "We had just bought this Wurlitzer organ at a thrift store and we were anxious to exment with it. It added so much to the overall mood. Lisa used the piano and organ as the main instruments, instead of the guitar like on the original. I also tried not to sing it as a straight as Paul; I wanted it to sort of feel as if Otis Redding had covered it. It took a lot of different approaches before finding the right one that made it feel like me." --Nate Cole

About BEATLES REIMAGINED:
Featuring contributions from Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros along with nine emerging U.S. indie artists across diverse genres, BEATLES REIMAGINED commemorates the 50th anniversaryof the recording and release of Beatles songs from 1963-4, including "From Me To You," "She Loves You" and "I Saw Her Standing There," which cemented the band's status as rock and roll royalty. Released this week (October 1) via Community Projects 100% of the label's net album sales from BEATLES REIMAGINED will be donated to the Rock n' Roll Camp for Girls Los Angeles (www.rockcampforgirlsla.org). BEATLES REIMAGINED honors the greatest modern songwriters of all time while infusing their music with a distinctly 21st century twist.
These new interpretations are not simply covers but have hotly tipped U.S. indie artists re-envisioning the songs on their own from alternative folk (Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros), acoustic folk (The Well Pennies), indie-rock (Mobley), indie-pop (Jhameel), new-rock (Badwolf), new-wave(Adventure Galley) and electro-dance-pop (Night Panther) through downtempo/lo fi(Feverbody), old school soul (Doom & Gloom) and retro-pop (Leftover Cuties). The Beatlesthemselves were influenced by American artists such as Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Elvis Presley, and BEATLES REIMAGINED returns their music to the heartland that inspired them: the United States.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has decided to revise a controversial fact sheet that declared its primary mission to be "national security," following criticism that the agency seemed to be moving away from its longstanding role as the nation's preeminent law enforcement agency.
The change emphasizes that stopping terrorism and battling more conventional domestic criminal activity are both "primary functions" of the FBI. The lightning-fast revision should dispel any notion that large bureaucratic organizations can only operate at a snail's pace: The fact sheet was updated less than 48 hours after a report on it in Foreign Policy went viral last week. An FBI official confirmed that the change was a direct result of the article.
"It's most accurate to say our primary functions are law enforcement and national security and that's probably what it should've said all along," FBI spokesman Paul Bresson told FP. "We've always been both."
The changes come after FP reported Jan. 5 that that FBI fact sheets declared "the primary function of the FBI is national security."
Two days later, on Jan. 7, the language changed to "the primary functions of the FBI are national security and law enforcement."
"That has to be some kind of a record," said Kel McClanahan, a Washington-based attorney who alerted FP to the original fact sheet revisions. "Doing this so quickly and so obviously cover your ass-y seems beneath them."
For some critics of the U.S. national security state, the FBI's creeping advance into counterterrorism since the 9/11 attacks has come at the cost of investigating other illegal activities such as mortgage fraud, financial fraud, violent crime, and bank robberies. Those critics seized on last week's report as evidence of the FBI's further drift toward counterterrorism.
"If the FBI's primary mission is 'national security,' what's the Department of Homeland Security's mission?" asked the Government Accountability Project's Jesselyn Radack.
Others accused the agency of rebranding itself in order to extract more funding from Congress. "How many terror plots are there in this country? Not that many, but that's where the big bucks are," said Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks webcast. The article was also picked up by the Drudge Report and the massive link-sharing site Reddit.
Bresson said critics were wrongly confusing a small change on a fact sheet with a substantive change in priorities.
"You're talking about a fact sheet, not a change in policy," he said. "The FBI's mission today, and throughout the course of our history, has been law enforcement and national security."
This may not be the final word on the issue. The fact sheets accompany every response the agency gives to Freedom of Information Act requests. The latest change was discovered by FOIA expert Shawn Musgrave who has already filed a public records request for the internal memos related to the fact sheet revisions. We'll keep you posted.
Update: FBI Director James Comey addressed the issue of the edited fact sheet during a talk he gave at an FBI field office in Birmingham, Alabama. "Someone eight levels down from me changed a form and as soon as I found out about it, I changed it back," he said. "Now it says what we are: A national security and law-enforcement agency."

The barest mention of Dragons' Den sets Isaac Lilos racing up the stairs from the basement office of his shop, Arty Globe, in the corner of Greenwich Market.
If customers want to know about the 39-year-old's experience on the popular television show, he'll regale them, at length, on just why his pitch flopped.
Hartwig Braun — the Israeli entrepreneur's 45-year-old partner, both professionally and personally — sniggers as Lilos explains how he had always thought it would be "wonderful" to be in the Den, how "in my mind there would be a bidding war to invest" in his grand plans.
Instead, Lilos went through "a humbling lesson" when he faced Duncan Bannatyne et al back in April 2009, suffering from exhaustion as he was also preparing to open the shop later that month. "I hadn't slept and then we waited 12 hours to go in. We even had to ask permission to go to the toilet so we wouldn't meet people who had already pitched. When I went in, my [internal] battery died, even my reserve battery," he sighs.
The Dragons pulled apart the duo's plans to incorporate Braun's hand-drawn, digitally coloured 3-D cityscapes on Oyster Card wallets, mugs, cuff links and mouse mats. Still, the previous summer the pair were dragging four large suitcases full of greetings cards and postcards from their home in Nottingham as they lost £300 on a trial stall at Covent Garden's Jubilee Market; by April they had relocated to a buzzing, artisan area of South-east London and were in effect advertising for nothing on the BBC.
The snub appears to be one of the Dragons' costlier mistakes, as the budding entrepreneurs have made £600,000 in four years, and are planning selectively to place their products with big-name stores.
Another couple of Arty Globe stores are being considered, and silk scarves decorated with the couple's distinctive curved fish-eye lens panoramas of London sell for £199 a pop.
The distorted designs, which are detailed enough to include what in real life are nondescript office blocks as well as landmarks such as the London Eye, are not only loved by tourists. There is bespoke work for the likes of easyJet, which sells the pair's 54-piece jigsaws on its flights. Hamleys hired Braun to draw the toyshop for its 250th anniversary in 2010, and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao sells Arty Globe merchandise in its souvenir shop. The government of Texas recently came calling, quite literally, as one of its marketing team door-stepped them to discuss how Arty Globe could help to promote the American state around the world.
Lilos is the business brain, having "pestered" Braun to quit a dull job in architecture. He would redraw the same building 15 times, as clients demanded more and more floorspace be squeezed into a tight location. Lilos wanted to commercialise the creative genius of his "doodles".
Braun wasn't convinced: "It's not easy to give up something you've studied for so long — seven years to become an architect — despite the frustrations. It was not such a quick decision."
"The thing is, he's German, everything's a discussion," laughs Lilos. "He couldn't see the opportunity that I could see."
Braun's caution was understandable. Lilos had made mistakes in business, with a Lincolnshire-based car venture that was an early victim of the financial crisis.
Lilos, who moved from Israel in 1997 to help his brother run a family property business, was selling vehicles to both trade and the public, but had put too much money into stock. He had also been romantically involved with his then-business partner, a situation that later made managing the company difficult: "I had split up with my partner, and it wasn't that amicable, but we stayed together as a business."
Now, he wanted to do the same thing again with the man he had fallen for in a Paris bar in 2003.
"I was over from Berlin helping a friend renovate a flat," smiles Braun. "I didn't really end up helping my friend that much."
Braun soon moved to the UK, and Lilos discovered a Christmas card that the bored architect had drawn of Amsterdam a few years earlier. Braun had been toying with "deliberately breaking the rules of perspective" and even as a schoolchild he was illustrating his biology and geography textbooks with wacky designs.
It took a while but Braun eventually gave in to Lilos's badgering and spent several months drawing a 1.5-metre canvas called "London looking north". This became the basis of a business that has now sold more than 150,000 products. How the Dragons must be kicking themselves.

Paint entire interior
My home is about 15 years old and I'm ready to change colors on everything; ceiling, crown moulding, walls, base moulding, all trim and doors. I assume I'll also need to paint bathroom cabinets and family room bookcases when I change the trim color from White to something a little more beige.
I have painted interior walls before, but never the mouldings, trim, ceiling, or doors.
Where should I start? What type/finish of paint should I use on mouldings, trim, cabinets, and ceiling? What equipment should I use on mouldings and doors to make it look good? Any other advice is welcome.
For starters, look up Joe Sheridan's website..............I'm sure he has a link to it on here. It has about as much info on it as you could imagine......backed by many years in the business.

23 Tips For Better Genealogy Research
By Lisa A. Alzo
A busy schedule can thwart family tree research, but these 23 tips will help you be smarter about your time.
Are you paying enough attention to your ancestors? In our time-crunched world, we're busier than ever with family obligations, jobs and endless errands. Time management gurus are always telling us to "work smarter, not harder," a principle that certainly applies to genealogy research. But how? If you're feeling time-challenged, listen up: These 23 secrets will help you research more efficiently and squeeze just a little more family history into your busy life.
1. Plan it
When it comes to seeking out ancestors, genealogists can be a bit overzealous. We want to know everything right away, and the instant gratification of online searching makes us even more impatient. But before you even start the research process, you need to determine what you're looking for (such as when your family arrived on US shores, or whether you have a Civil War ancestor). Then you can figure out what records you should consult and plan specific research steps to get them. This might sound like it'll add to your task load, but it'll actually save you time in aimless or redundant searching.
Find an example of a research plan at
, and see the
January 2011 Family Tree Magazine

Cauthen: "Cecil was an amazing guy"
Tuesday 11 June 2013
Steve Cauthen enjoyed six memorable and highly successful years as stable jockey to Sir Henry Cecil, including many Classic triumphs.
The American jockey partnered the likes of Oh So Sharp to the 1985 Triple Crown, Reference Point to Derby and St Leger glory two years later, and Diminuendo to the 1988 Oaks.
"It's a great loss to the sport and to everybody who knew him. he was such a great guy - different, special, a genius," he said.
"We had six great years together. The first year we had an amazing run when Slip Anchor won the Derby and Oh So Sharp won the Triple Crown for fillies.
"There were many others - Old Vic who won the French and Irish Derby, Reference Point, Indian Skimmer - there were so many of them.
"He had a great sense of humour. He was a super intelligent guy and really knew how to place his horses.
"He tried to have fun. The atmosphere during most of the time I was up at Warren Place was just fantastic.
"It was all due to him. It was a team effort but everyone looked to him. He was the one making decisions about where to run the horses.
"The way he trained was great and the way he placed them was fantastic. He was a special trainer.
"He went through a rough patch but he came back. To have a horse like Frankel and finish off his career when he wasn't in great health was incredible.
"He did a perfect job in making Frankel the horse he was."
Mick Kinane was among thhose jockey who had ridden for Cecil that paid tribute to him on Tuesday.
The former top jockey rode several big-race winners for Cecil, including the 1993 Derby aboard Commander In Chief, and was fulsome in his praise.
"He was a lovely man to ride for and had a great way of making you feel at ease even when the stakes were high," Kinane said.
"I have to say he was very instrumental in launching my international career as in 1989 he gave me the spare ride in the Irish Oaks on Alydaress and things never looked back from there. I won a couple of King Georges for him (Belmez and King's Theatre) and the Derby (Commander In Chief) afterwards, so I had some great success with him.
"His horses were always like the man himself, straightforward and easy to deal with, they were always very genuine and would do their utmost for you, just like he would. It was fitting the he ended up with a horse like Frankel when he faced his biggest battle himself. It was great he gave him so much pleasure.
"As a trainer he gave you all the confidence in the world going out, he was a lovely man to ride for. Breakfast at Warren Place was a lovely place to be, he had a big family and I'm sure he'll be sorely missed."
Six-times champion Kieren Fallon, another of the elite band of Cecil stable jockeys, said: "He was a legend. My first year with him, I was champion jockey. We had a great rapport and he will be sadly missed. We won the Derby with Oath, the Guineas with Sleepytime, we had a lot of great success. I think Frankel will be on everybody's mind, the way he trained that horse."
Richard Hughes, currently champion jockey, added: "It's very sad. I'd only said a few weeks ago when I saw him saddling his horses that he looked very weak, god rest him. But that was his love for his horses. He'd have 100 people to saddle his horses, but he just loved being there.
"I remember the first time I went to his yard, I wanted to see the horses and he showed me his roses! When I went in for breakfast he asked if I wanted soldiers with my egg! He was great fun to be around and his record as a trainer speaks for itself. We've lost probably one of the greatest trainers of all time. Frankel was brilliant, but he got him up to his potential."
An emotional Pat Eddery added: "He was a great trainer, he was a genius and I was very fortunate to have ridden for him. It's just really sad. He was quite an easy person to get on with and trained some great horses. He's gone through some bad times, came back and did it again. I just loved riding for him. His horses were amazing. It's a very sad day."
Reactions from members of the racing industry on Twitter following the announcement of Cecil's death:
A sad day for racing we have lost a true ambassador for our sport in Sir Henry Cecil privileged to have ridden for him #truegentleman
Very sad news to hear of Sir Henry Cecil's passing a genius trainer and absolute Gentleman RIP
A sad day indeed. Farewell to Sir Henry Cecil, a fabulous colleague and great horseman. Our condolences go out to his family today.
I only rode for "sir Henry Cecil" on 2 occasions, but I'm extremely proud 2 have ridden 4 him, RIP sir Henry #gentlemangeniuslegend
Henry Cecil was the most wonderful friend and Godfather to @HarryDunlop3 and will be much missed. Thoughts v much with his family and staff.
Think how difficult it is for a trainer to dig out one Royal Ascot winner. Then think that Sir Henry Cecil had 75 of them. Astonishing man.
Tanya Stevenson - Broadcaster
Rest In Peace Sir Henry Cecil forever in our hearts, you gave racing so much & you were the colourful fabric of its rich tapestry of history
Clare Balding - Broadcaster
Just heard the news that Sir Henry Cecil has died. So so sad. He was one of the true greats and a gentleman. Frankel his crowning glory #RIP
RIP Sir Henry Cecil. An immeasurable loss to the sport you graced with humility, style and incomparable brilliance. Thank you.
So desperately sad to hear of the passing of the great Sir Henry Cecil. Racing & Newmarket especially just will not be same without him #RIP

Architectural rendering of the north elevation of the Biomedical Research Tower
"We're breaking ground on a building that signifies a new era in scientific discovery that will lead to improved medical therapeutics and successful technologies, enhancing quality of life through the development of new life-saving techniques and by fostering economic growth," said Dr. Fred Sanfilippo, senior vice president for health sciences and dean of the College of Medicine and Public Health at Ohio State. "Our investment in a facility of this magnitude sends a strong signal that Ohio State University is poised to support the most advanced biomedical research programs in the world."
In keeping with the week's theme, "Discovery: The Foundation for the Future," Cech, president of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, will deliver a talk titled "From Catalytic RNA to Howard Hughes" on Oct. 1 (see details, below). He received the 1989 Nobel Prize for Chemistry with Sidney Altman of Yale University for the discovery that RNA in living cells can function as an enzyme, a biocatalyst that facilitates a chemical change without being changed itself. Previously, all enzymes were thought to be proteins. His address is sponsored by the university's Office of Research as part of the University Research Lecture Series.
University and OSU Medical Center leaders will gather on Oct. 2 to officially break ground for the Biomedical Research Tower in the 400 block of West 12th Avenue in a ceremony that also will feature interactive biomedical research displays and a retrospective of biomedical research achievements at the medical center.
A Center for Knowledge Management Open House on Oct. 1 will feature hands-on demonstrations of medical education technologies and exhibits of the services of the center, which places all multimedia and library components of the Medical Center under one roof in the Prior Health Sciences Library.
And the entire week will be marked by a series of lectures featuring some of OSU Medical Center's most renowned scientists on topics ranging from genetics and cell behavior to imaging and experimental treatments. "Featuring the ongoing work of Medical Center faculty throughout the week serves as an important reminder that we have a strong foundation on which to base our future research efforts," noted Dr. Caroline Whitacre, associate vice president for health sciences research and vice dean for research in the College of Medicine and Public Health.
Projected to open in 2006, the Biomedical Research Tower nearly doubles the amount of biomedical research space on campus and provides a centralized facility for educating OSU students. Research conducted in the building is expected to attract significant extramural financial support, patents and licensing opportunities. The research tower also is expected to have a major impact on the Ohio economy, generating an estimated $3.7 billion and 17,000 new jobs during its first 10 years in operation. A schedule of events and a Biomedical Research Tower fact sheet are attached.
Projected Completion: December 2006
Facility details
- Approximately 372,000-square-foot facility with 248,000 assignable square feet, including 151,000 square feet of lab and lab support space, and 41,800 square feet of office space
- Research laboratories dedicated to experimental therapeutics (cancer), heart and lung disease, neurobiology of disease, imaging, microbial pathogenesis, pharmacogenomics, bioinformatics, diabetes, structural biology and tissue engineering
- Core labs comprising 28,000 square feet for shared use in genomics, proteomics, mass spectrometry, bioinformatics, viral vector, flow cytometry, histology, cryogen storage, light microscopy, electron microscopy, tissue engineering, X-ray crystallography and cytogenetics

- 250-seat auditorium plus seminar rooms and café
- The 400 block of West 12th Avenue with a bridge connector to the Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute
Funding sources
- Bonds issued through the university for $126.8 million will be the predominant funding source for construction. Indirect costs generated from extramural funding will significantly offset the facility's debt service
- Private philanthropic support of $24 million to cover remaining costs
- University support
- Advance Ohio State's internationally recognized research programs in cancer and cancer genetics, cardiovascular and lung disease, and high-field imaging as well as to bring to national and international prominence OSU's biology, biotechnology and biomedical informatics programs
- Expand programs in important emerging fields such as neurological disorders (examples: Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease), heart failure and heart imaging, pharmacogenomics and targeted molecular therapies, microbial pathogenesis and biodefense, and tissue engineering
- Retain the high-caliber research corps present at Ohio State and attract individuals of outstanding scientific ability to OSU
- Provide for current and expanding research funding from the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Environmental Protection Agency and others
Anticipated impact
- Translate scientific discovery to advanced patient care in the most timely, cost-efficient manner possible
- Bolster the state's economy by creating approximately 17,000 new jobs and bringing $3.7 billion to Ohio during the next 10 years
- Open opportunities within the university for commercialization of intellectual property and development

Just came back from doing a bid at the Agave Inn soon to be the Havasu Heat Hotel. They are converting the second story patio(huge) into an outside bar area. It looks right out at the channel. This bar area is above the stores. The bar is a huge "horseshoe" shape, they are going to have outside furniture and tables to sit at. They are putting a huge tent like cover over it with some new state of the art misting system. Suppose to open in two weeks. If you have ever sat outside at the Javelina Cantina, you would have looked right at and over this area to see the water. This looks like to be a new NICE hang out!!
A company out of California bought the property and is re doing everything, you probably noticed the outside color changed about a month ago.

White Rodgers 1F95-1291 Tstat Dual Fuel problem
I've had trouble getting my original installer to address an issue I am having, operationally, with the Big Blue Thermostat.
Though my system is a single stage heat pump with my original 80% gas fire furnace (hybrid), and the system has an outdoor sensor attached, I am unable to lockout the gas furnace based on setting the lockout temp within the thermostat setup.
It seems that regardless of the setup, the gas furnace comes on after the heat pump has run for a while without being able to achieve the setpoint. I thought the idea of a lockout would simply be to allow the heat pump to run, even if the thermostat was not happy with the rate of heatup.
Specifically, with outside temperature above 45 degrees, and the lockout temp set at 35 degrees, the system begins heating the house in the morning from perhaps 65 with the setpoint at 68 degrees. The gas fire comes on after the heat pump has run for a while. I am not sure how long the HP ran, but my impression is that its either on a timer controlled by the tstat or the warming rate wasn't enough, so the tstat brings on the gas fire.
Aren't you supposed to be able to use this tstat to lockout the gas fire? Or does it simply ignore that lockout if the home isn't heating quickly enough or has not reached set point in X amount of time?? I can not find anything in the user manual which suggests that the gas backup will come on REGARDLESS of the lockout setting. So, I am looking for help here.
I suspect that my installers may have simply miswired something.

I have the same problems with a different thermostat and and interested in purchasing this thermostat to fix this exact problem....
Please let me know if this helps....
Under your set-up features (30)
30. Select Auxiliary Off (AO) – Select the temperature that will inhibit the auxiliary heating stage. As long as the outdoor temperature is above the selected temperature, the
auxiliary heat will not turn on. The default setting is 60°,
but can be set in the range of 35 ° to 80°.
29. Select Dual Fuel Feature Using Outdoor Sensor (dF)
– This feature is applicable only in heat pump modes and
with an outdoor sensor installed and enabled in step 27.
When selected ON, the thermostat will use the outdoor
sensor temperature to determine when to switch to gas
heat and shut down the compressor.
Last but not least there is also an adjustment where you can tune the difference between the primary heat and the secondary heat.
28. Select Dual Fuel Feature With No Outdoor Sensor
(dF) – This feature is applicable only in heat pump modes
and with no outdoor sensor. When selected ON, the
thermostat will use software logic to determine when to
switch to gas heat and shut down the compressor.
Select DF setting (dF) – With DF selected On and no
outdoor sensor, select the dF setting from 01-09. Factory
default is 05. The dF setting infl uences when second
stage comes on. The factory default creates a separation
of approximately 1oF between stages. Increasing the setting
decreases the separation between stages. Decreasing
the value increases stage separation. This adjustment
allows a small change in the operation of your heat
pump system versus your auxiliary system relative to the
thermostat adjustment. The higher the number the sooner
the auxiliary stage energizes. The lower the number the
longer period of time before auxiliary is energized.
Note: This setting is not minutes or degrees. It is numeric
setting that will infl uence the internal thermostat
Try lowering this figure from default of 5 slowly down to 1 to see if it help limit the use of GAS.
I like the last option best as it will allow you to set the temperature differential so that the gas to kick in when the HP can't heat the home to the desired temperature when the difference in house temp is greater than a sertain setpoint..
Of special interest make sure your primary HP is set to FA (I.E. It will try to keep the temperature within approc .75 deg of setpoint) and the GAS should be set to SL (1.7 deg range)
Also, to prevent the heat (GAS) from cycling because of your morning raise due to lowering at night, program in 2 different cycles to heat up in the morning about 2 hours appart raising the temp (Approx 2 deg F) each time....This will create a graduated temp rise and should eliminate the gas from coming on unless absolutely required to maintain your normal house temp....
Also make sure the setting for EMR Is ON
Energy Management Recovery (EMR) – (this step is
skipped if confi gured as non-programmable). When set
to "On" causes the thermostat to start heating or cooling
early to make the building temperature reach the program
setpoint at the time you specify.
The heating program is 65°F at night and 70°
at 7 AM. If the building temperature is 65°F, the difference
is 5°F. Allowing 5 minutes per °F rise, the thermostat setpoint
will change to 70° at 6:35 AM. Cooling allows more
time per °F, because it takes longer to reach temperature.
Please let me know if/what works as I want to purchase this same unit to control the same....

I've tried all of the things you've stated, and the only one that has worked is the very last where you use up two of your cycles to increase by 2 degrees each time. The house typically gets down to 64 at worst (unless we really have a cold cold night), so the fix that I finally came up with last year was to molly coddle the system by having it come on and make up 2 degrees per hour. So, since I want 68 degrees by 7:30am, I set for EMR to have 66 degrees by 6:30, then 68 degrees by 7:30am. So far this has been the only way to work around the TSTAT. I can not lockout the gas heat using any methods. I did think of simply turning off the outside sensor with 29, but this also eliminates the reading so that solution was tossed aside because I do like knowing what the temperature is.
Also, I have two identical White/Rodgers (Emerson) tstats and neither locks out as advertised. So, I have simply used up the 2 cycles (our of 4 allowed) to run this up as you had indicated. I have to hand it to you for coming up with that. As I played with this thing all last winter attempting to figure out why I couldn't lock out the gas backup until finally coming up with that work around.
I was also dealing with a bad reversing valve on both units at the same time due to a factory recall which took me a long time to get serviced, so that added to the problem because once in defrost the units would stop heating and, naturally the gas backup would eventually come on.
Now that I think of it, I am not sure that I ever tested the lockout AFTER getting that problem serviced. Maybe the Tstat lost communication with the outdoor unit when it got stuck in defrost and this is what caused the gas heat to perhaps OVERRIDE the Tstat and come on. I'll try again using the lockout this year and let you know what happens now that all the equipment is working properly.
Thanks for the response.

Re Defrost....
Interestingly enough, my defrost is hardwired to the furnace to W1, which immediately activates the furnace during defrost cycles. i.E. This signal never goes to the thermostat.
This activation allows the house not to get cooler while the Heat Pump (Valve reverses) by itself as it is performing a defrost cycle.The cycling of the blower during this time is also very important as it is used to heat up the Heat Pump (Defrost).
To minimize the use of gas (Furnace) during this operation you can, if you can handle the temperature drop in the house, wire the defrost signal from the Heat Pump to the Blower instead of the W1 (Furnace ON)....Will be trying it this winter for myself to see how much savings its results in....It will take longer to defrost, and be cooler during the cycle but a $ saved is a $ earned.
Oh by the way....Another way to try to minimize the aux coming on it to make sure that the return vents in your basement as turned off (If you don't heat much down there) Reason being is when you have your first heat in the morning, it actually cools your house by pulling cold aire from the basement upstairs. This makes it even more difficult for the HP to heat the air within its normal time parameters, and may cause the aux to come on as well...

My installers never hooked up the feedback line so that the furnace would come on during defrost. I think I am glad too, because in our other house which has a Carrier Infinity in it, the gas fire is limited to LOW stage during defrost so as not to create too much heat in the coil which wants to get very cold so the outside coil gets very hot so it can defrost. This situation still allowed the house to actually cool off during the defrost.
In this house, which has 2 units (one for each of two floors - no basement), even without the gas fire (one stage HIGH) coming on, the defrost takes place quickly enough that the tstat remains steady. So, I have the systems set on 60 minute defrost cycles (if I remember correctly) so defrost hasn't been too much of a problem since typical winter temps are above 40 here.
Another note on the "smarter" Carrier Infinity versus the Goodman Heat pumps with backup 15 year old Carrier Gas furnaces (which are what is in this house) - When I used the Carrier Infinity the way it was factory programmed, I noticed that once the heat pump gives up and the system would fall back to gas backup (ie during morning start up on cold days), the gas furnace would simply continues to cycle low, med, high, med, low, med, high, etc., and never give the heatpump a chance to come on because the system would never shut off.
So, I had to override the gas fire to ALWAYS HIGH so that when it did fail over to it, it would run until it toasted the house and then shut itself off, so that on the next start up the heat pump would come back on. This allowed for warm ups in the morning with gas then running the heat pump to maintain the constant temperature.
My conclusion is that even though these systems are supposed to be brilliant, you have to override them to get the best economy in the Pacific Northwest. They seem more geared for the east coast where gas prices are much cheaper than electric - not true here. The carrier rep even told me "Well, that's what you want" when I told him the gas fire wouldn't ever shut down once it was called. It's not what we want here - we have hydro electic power here and gas is over $1.20/therm.

Sounds like your Infinity was set to comfort mode.
Just needed to set it to economy to stop the cycling.

The lock-out is to prevent the heat pump from engaging at the set temperature; not to lock-out the auxiliary. This is primarily for gas auxiliary as you do not want the heat pump and the gas auxiliary running at the same time. With electric auxiliary, it is ok for both to be running. This is because the indoor coil is mounted after the burner with gas, but before the electric strips with electric. Mounting the coil before the burner (gas) is not advisable as the moist air is not good for things. There is no burner or heat exchanger with electric and it doesn't matter.
With electric, the heat pump acts as a pre-heater due to the fact that the indoor coil is before the heat strips. If it is sufficient, all's well. If not, the electric auxiliary cuts in and then all's well.
Exact scenario I have in the Pacific Northwest and works well. It's never cold enough for the heat pump not to be generating at least some heat, which means that the auxiliary just has to do less. Very difficult to set up if not already as the necessary wiring for electric auxiliary is not cheap or easy, although the actual furnace is much less expensive.
At least that is how I understand it, not being an expert. If you have found something different, please let us know.

User's Manual in error
The user's manual clearly describes a feature which serves to control "hybrid systems" which is what I have (heat pump w/gas backup), and there are two settings governing switchover control. One is as you've stated - a low temperature lockout - whereby the heat pump won't come on and instead the heat will be by gas furnace only. The other setting clearly describes a temperature at which the gas furnace will be locked out, and in that case, I am now told by Emerson that the user's guide is faultly written. Emerson says that in order to make the temperature back if the heat pump hasn't done its job then rather than continue to run the heat pump the tstat will call for the gas fire to finish the cycle. And this has been my experience. So, I wish they would be honest in what they've written.

Ha-ha, I know what you mean. There does not seem to be a standard, although one would think there would be, and everybody uses different terminology and interchangeably. Add in the mistakes in just about every HVAC manual I've encountered and it's enough to make one think they are on a different planet.
On top of it, experts seem to have as much trouble deciphering as the ordinary lay-person; I've read numerous reports of customers having had their equipment improperly set-up by those in the trade. It's really just not mainstream DIY stuff, at least not yet.
That's quite the serious mistake in documentation though and I don't envy you.

Get a Honeywell thermostat(TH8320,8321, or YTH9421) and you can lock out the gas furnace. Even if the heat pump is running for 12 hours and the indoor temp is 6 degrees below set temp, they won't bring on the gas furnace. The YTH9421 does have an upstage timer you can set, if you want to make sure your house reaches temp(or doesn't get cold enough to freeze pipes) in case the heat pump were to fail at a temp above the gas furnaces lock out temp.

Seems like the 9421 is the one to get for max flexibility, even if for down the road.
Separate question, if you have a comment. Is it better (less expensive) to run less strips (electric auxiliary) longer or more strips shorter?

The YTH9421 will control 2 stages of gas heat, or of electric aux heat.
It is generally best to only bring in the amount of electric aux you need to supplement the heat pump. So it has a long run time. Bringing on all the electric aux heat when only half as much is really needed uses more electric then letting the heat pump have long run times.

White Trash Two Heebs & A Bean is the fourth album from the band nofx, its also quite a strange name for an album however a lot of albums from this band do have quite strange names also. For me this album came at a pretty good time, the band had already had a poor first album and another poor second album however their third was pretty good so I was expecting something from this one and it didn't really disappoint.
The first track is called soul doubt, its not my favourite song from the band or off this album however its still fairly good, its got some really good guitar and drums in it and although I think the lyrics let the song down a bit it is still played well.
The third some in where the album comes into its own, its called bob and is a clear favourite of mine from this album and is also one of my favourites from this band as well, its got a really catchy opening lyrics and in fact catchy lyrics all the way through, I also love the ska edge this song has, and the saxophone in the middle, it's a really great song.
The bag is another song I like from this album, its called the bag and it's a fast paced punk rock song with on going lyrics which don't really have much pauses for breath in them, the lyrics are really great and its sung well in a kind of sad slow way even though its really fast.
She's gone is probably the most different song from the rest of them, its sung very differently from the rest as if its kind of screamed out but not in a bad sounding way, I really like the rawness of this song.

This is a really good album from the band, they had really started getting their style together by their third album and I think for this album they knew for the first time what direction they wanted to go down, and for me this was a turning point as they didn't really have another bad album since this one.
NOFX are one of the most underrated punk bands out there today, although technically they are asking for it. They refuse to do interviews, they consistently make politically incorrect albums and have a thing about lesbians. In fact, considering the fame TATU are getting nowadays, it's a shame that NOFX aren't getting noticed since their rock/punk hybrid is about as tasteless, shocking and funny as punk gets. However, there's no doubting that since 1994's sublime Punk In Drublic, the quality of the records has increased somewhat. Indeed, last album, Pump Up The Valuum, had the commercial-suicide of having about three choruses among a huge tracklist. However, it was back in the good old days, when NOFX were at their prime. White Trash... is their best album, if you like stuff like Blink-182, Good Charlotte or Green Day. However, if you like your music more politically aware then go out and buy a copy of Punk In Drublic, because it is Citizen Kane to this record's Jackass: The Movie. However, that's not doubting that this album is good. In fact, this album isn't just good, it's bloody hilarious at times. And when I say hilarious, I don't mean witty (i.e. Weezer) but more towards the Blink-182 / Bowling For Soup brand of jockstrap, cock waggling jokes. However, the material here is far ruder, far stronger and far more provoking. Lines like "she said they don't know how to fuck, her last boyfriend's a schmuck" or "with a flick of a tongue she made her laugh" from politically incorrect lesbianism anthem Liza and Louise always generate a few chuckles. While the opening of Bob, with the classic line "I spent fifteen years, getting loaded now, fifteen years getting loaded" and the eponymous chorus of Please Play This Song On The Radio have a sense of dry, black humour that is all too much absent from today's music. And on to the music. Well White Trash... displays NOFX i
n their most juvenile days. Some songs here revel in the two chord dynamics of yesteryear (i.e. The Ramones) while others take it a step up, and that's a SHORT step up. In fact, some of the playing here is so basic that it seems like these uys only picked up their guitars the day before the recorded this. It's El Hef, the "big boned" guitarist who joined the band before the recording of this album, who adds the muscle and the flavour that separates this from the rest. His air guitar playing is magnificent, particularly on the solo that opens Lisa and Louize where he seems to be stuck in his own Led Zeppelin world, while the other members of the band plod through three chord punk. Often El Hef, even resembles the punk Santana (if that's actually possible). This is most evident on Stickin' In My Eye, the "punkest" song on this record where he plays a riff that could have been taken straight out of Supernatural's tracklist. Nonetheless, the song soon descends into a punk frenzy, bongo drums, rapid fire guitar work and bobbing basslines. Almost every song here, apart from the throwaway "joke" finale that is BuggleyEyes (think Frank Sinatra DOING Joey Ramone and you get an idea of how this sounds like) could be a hit single on alternative stations across the country, and rarely does NOFX escape from the verse chorus verse pattern of regular pop songs. At thirteen tracks, totalling inat around half an hour, this album isn't that long. But with punk, believe me, that's a good thing. How long can you listen to the same whiny voice for? It's not a problem with Green Day or Weezer who both have lovely, charismatic lead vocalists, but with NOFX you have Fat Mike, a constipated lemon if there ever was one. He just babbles on and on and on.... Initially, his voice is intriguing, mosh pit inducing, exciting and this album cuts it short at just the right moment, whilst on later albums this guy just bla
bbers on and on... White Trash... is not a classic album- your collection will not feel abused without it. It is entirely throwaway, entirely forgettable but an immensely fun ride while it all happens, boasting numerous jokes then. It's like the American Pie of music, immensely enjoyable but also hugely enjoyable. If you want world-weary, politically aware, clever punk music then search for Punk In Drublic, a punk album with a hugely black heart and one of the best lines I've heard in "don't point your finger you racist, you bigot, that's not the problem, is it?" and "what the f**k is freedom". Chow (sorry if you didn't enjoy that I know it's sub-par compared to my other work)
This is one of the best punk albums ever made. They've made better recieved albums since. They've made better selling albums since. But this is the daddy of them all. Not a bad track on here - it kicks off with 'Soul Doubt' an upbeat punk track straight out of the NOFX mould - carries on through 'stickin in my eye'. 'Bob' is funny and top quality, 'Lisa and Louise' is a genuine classic and very funny (but not necessarily PC). Top tunes, and it closes with 'Buggly Eyes' - a really funny songthat sounds like some kind of old 40s-type singer. To be honest, after this and 'Punk in Drublic' NOFX went downhill and got a bit boring. (I know people will complain about that). Just buy this it is fantastic. They were never better.

TO THE NEWS MEDIA: Two significant Oregon public figures will speak in

Two of Oregon's most significant public figures over the years go on the
record for impeachment of President Bush and Vice-President Cheney when they
speak at a public meeting Friday (June 17) at the Chiles Center at the
University of Oregon.
Jim Weaver, U.S. Congressman from Oregon District 40 for 12 years
(1975-1987), will make a speech at 4 p.m. in lecture room 127 of Chiles,
located across Kincaid Street from the University Bookstore. He will call
for immediate start of legislative committee hearings that would lead to
impeachment of President George Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney.
"It's not easy for individual legislators to take such momentous steps,"
said Weaver. "I know from my 12 years in the Congress, and can appreciate
the various pressures on my successor, Peter DeFazio. That's why it is
essential his constituents speak out to give him a clear signal that the
impeachment effort is way overdue."
Speaking in support of Weaver's call for action will be the University's
most distinguished science professor, Frank Stahl. For the past year, Stahl
has been distributing on campus flyers that describe the Iraq war as illegal
and unconstitutional.
The event is sponsored by Pacifica Forum, which meets every Friday on
campus to discuss issues related to world peace. Forum chairman is Orval
Etter, like Stahl, a university professor emeritus.
The Forum has identified several actions by the executive branch of the
nation that might justify impeachment, such as the failure to account for
some trillions in budgeted funds.
"But," said Etter, "all other reasons pale beside the decision of the
administration to persist in an illegal war that continues to bleed our
children in the military, and also create a massive, increasing deficit."
The talk will be followed by a discussion to involve the audience.

(For release, Wednesday, June 15)
By Jim Weaver, former U.S. Congressman from Oregon
Impeachment of a president is one of the most serious steps our
representative democracy can take. Another is going to war. Both should be
approached with utmost care, and on clearly stated grounds.
It is true the Republican-dominated 105th Congress, in impeaching
President William Clinton, lowered the bar on impeachment into the basement.
We should not stoop so low today as did the rightwing religious Republicans.
Only two presidents have been impeached, and their impeachment was on
essentially political grounds. We should not base a call for impeachment of
President Bush on political grounds.
President Bush made a distinct promise in the 2000 election to unite the
American people. After assuming the presidency-- with less than a majority
of the vote-- he proceeded to disunite us. The Bush Administration moved so
far to the right it doomed the center, and provoked the extreme polarization
that dominates our politics today.
That promise to unite us was only the first of the extravagant lies of
President Bush, but his arrogance in defying the majority will is not an
impeachable offense. Such political manipulations should be remedied by
That he and his cohorts villify and trash anyone who dares speak against
them and their policies is a blot on our democracy. But it is not an
impeachable offense. That he responds to charges that Guantanamo is like a
gulag by calling them absurd, attacking the press as he did with Newsweek,
sullying the First Amendment, and intimidating the news media is not
His tax cuts for the wealthy, threatening to convert our middle class
society into a banana republic where a few families and corporations
dominate a benighted lower class, are not impeachable.
Threatening the judiciary and packing the courts with right wing fanatics,
dangerous and destructive as this may be, is not impeachable. There were no
cries for impeachment of President Franklin Rooseveltwhen he attempted to
pack the Supreme Court for the simple reason the majority Democrats in
Congress stopped him. The tragedy today is that the majority Republicans in
Congress go in lockstep with Bush. We can only hope these Republicans will
be defeated in the 2006 elections.
Our Social Security system is under attack by President Bush. Is this
impeachable? No. Is this the politics of class and greed? Yes. It may
finally arouse our citizenry to vote to throw out the perpetrators.
Borrowing to pay for his tax cuts and his war in Iraq-- leaving us with a
grievous national debt-- is a profound and severe economic and fiscal error.
His allowing desecration of our environment and his denial of global
warming-- ignorant and arrogant as these policies are-- are not impeachable.
If ignorance were a disqualification for high office, half the U.S. Senate
would be disbarred from membership.
The Constitution states the grounds are treason, bribery and other high
crimes and misdemeanors. James Madison, a principle author of the
Constitution, in defining high crimes said perfidy-- violation of the public
trust-- was impeachable. The evidence, both in clearly demonstrated fact
and in such documents as the Downing Street Memo, is compelling. It shows
Bush lied and lied again about reasons that drove us into the war in Iraq.
That is a violation of the public trust involving the most important
action a nation can take: war. It rises to the very highest level of
impeachable grounds. Compounding this indictment is the use of national
security agencies to distort evidence for reasons for war.
Going to war on false pretenses is an impeachable offense.
Therefore, I urge the Pacifica Forum and all citizens of Oregon to make an
urgent call for the impeachment of President Bush. Vice-President Richard
Cheney should be added to that call. He participated in the same lies, the
same violation of the public trust.
I suggest you make this call in a letter to Congressman Peter DeFazio,
asking him to introduce articles of impeachment in the House of
Representatives. If we can invigorate the American public with this
indictment, it can become the paramount issue in the midterm elections of
2006. It would make that election a referendum on the Bush Administration
and its acolytes in Congress.
By Frank Stahl, University of Oregon emeritus professor, and American
Cancer Society Professor in the Institute of Molecular Biology.
I support Jim Weaver's call for impeachment of President Bush and
Vice-President Cheney. Action is urgent. A failure to impeach Bush would
endorse his abuse of power. This would exacerbate ongoing losses of the
Constitutionally mandated Separation of Powers and of respect for the Rule
of Law. The imperial ambitions of the Bush Administration must be stopped.
They do not represent the values of our Republic.
President Dwight Eisenhower warned us against the growing collusion of
industrial America and the Pentagon. He referred to it as the
"Military-Industrial Complex." My post-retirement research has led me,
reluctantly, to accept the view that a more accurate label for the collusion
would be "Military-Industrial-University Complex." Sadly, I now recognize
that my university, the University of Oregon, is acting as a member of that
Complex. The UO's actions that dismay me include lobbying Congress for an
increase in Pentagon funding for "tomorrow's warfighters," and conducting
research that promises to create soldiers unencumberred by normal human
When the University Senate is back in session next school year, it must
decide whether the University should continue to endorse an expanding
military budget.
However, the House of Representatives is in session NOW. We must act NOW
by insisting on introduction of a Bill of Impeachment against George W.

I'm also very excited that we'll be hitting KTLA (Tribune Broadcasting) as well as KCBS right down the street. Hope you'll be able to make it and help us out by spreading the word.
There's also a lunchtime rally at KNBC 12:30-2:30 that another peace group I'm working with is staging. I've posted that rally here as well.

Despite the fact that 24 is on hold indefinitely, and that Kiefer Sutherland agreed to all that jail time for nothing, Peter Chernin, president and COO of Fox's corporate parent, News Corp, said that "a strike is probably a positive for the company." He noted that Fox airs more non-scripted and primetime animated shows than its competitors — shows that are unaffected by the strike. "We would expect if anything that it would lift our market share and have us win this season by an even greater margin than we expect to," Chernin said.
What he is also saying is that if they win the ratings by huge margins they will be able to charge advertisers more, and thus make more money than the other networks.
I'm sure the writers love hearing the fact that a network has the chance to make more money without the writers than with them. Makes that endless circle a little tougher to walk.

Comments Written By David Brown 12:01 AM, 11 May 2014 Serial cheater Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) and Rovers barmaid Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan) have had some near misses during their affair, but it looks like they could finally be getting rumbled. An upcoming development will see Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis) watch on as Peter and Tina share an intimate conversation outside the Underworld knicker factory. As Peter strokes Tina's face, will Rob's suspicions be confirmed? Rob's sister is, of course, Peter's wife Carla - so it's surely doubtful that Rob would stay silent should he discover the truth? But you can discover the consequences for yourself when Coronation Street airs these scenes on Monday 19 May. Follow @RadioTimes Like this? Share it.
