How Increasing Access To Humble Technology Helps A Nation [Video]
A new film chronicles how the transformative results of increased access to bicycles in Nicaragua
A new feature length documentary charts the impact which the Pedal For Progress initiative has had in Nicaragua. Over 20,000 bikes have been brought to the country over the past 20 years, and this movie illustrates how interwoven the humble bike has become with Nicaraguan daily life. From the Bicycle City website:
"The Bicycle City is the story of how an idealistic experiment has helped the war-ravaged city of Rivas find its own path to recovery and normalcy through the introduction of cheap, reliable transportation in the form of the bicycle."
David Schweidenback, founder of the Pedal For Progress initiative imparts the simple but incredibly effective logic behind the success of his initiative:
"The bicycle is such a success because it makes people's life easier"

Hi Patty,
they didn't speak the same dialect, indeed.
The Suhl dialect is Thuringian which is similar to the Upper Saxonian
dialect. Those dialects belong to the dialect group of the Mitteldeutsche
Dialekte (Central German dialects), like Rheinpfälzisch (the dialect of the
Rhine Paltz etc.), Rheinhessisch (Hessian, Thuringian), too.
The Asch dialect must be similar to the dialect spoken in the near Bavarian
Oberfranken (Upper Franconia) region. The Franconian dialect, together with
the Bavarian (this is also the Austrian and Südtirol (South Tyrolian, in
today's northern Italy) dialect), Swabian and Alemannian (this is also the
Schwytzer Dytsch / Swiss German and the Elsässische / Alsacian) dialect,
belongs to the group Oberdeutsche Dialekte (Upper German dialects).
You may want to have a look at a geographical overview of the German
dialects which you can find somewhere on a page of
People coming from different dialect groups generally *are* able to
understand each other. But the must try to speak slowly and clearly. Most
word are the same, they only sound more or less different when spoken in
dialect. Also it always should be possible to everybody to explain words the
other persons is not able to understand.
What I meant in former post, telling people who come from different regions
could *not* understand each other, concerns those who are absolutely not
able or willing to speak clearly.
I know it's not that easy to understand this linguistic situation here, but
it's as hard to explain it so that a non-native speaker can imagine a little
bit what "German dialect" means. Hope I could explain it that way.

Quick Getaway: Carnival Ecstasy Cruise Review by tinkr2
Overall Member Rating
Quick Getaway
Destination: Bahamas
Embarkation: Port Canaveral (Orlando)
I booked this 8 days out on the carnival site based solely on price and then got all worried after I went on the boards. The boat is small so less walking. The boat is old but seemed decently maintained. The art work and neon are ugly but kinda fun and cruise cheesy, changing neon isn't for everyone. The food is by no means five star but sure was plenty good since I gained 5 pounds.
The boarding process was great. We did off site parking at cruise parking and touched no luggage which my husband was a huge fan of. we walked right on the ship and had lunch and a cocktail with in 10 minutes. The pool was hopping and the music was playing lots of fun dance tunes. Sailaway was nice with lots of silly line dances and plenty of tropical drinks.
We were assigned late dinner 815 at Windsong. this was confusing bc More Ive never been on a ship with more than one main dining room and of course we stood in line at Windstar and had to march up a floor and down a floor on the other side of ship. Night one, the dinner was fine and most people were in dresses and nice slacks. Our staff was so so, one great(Nancy) and one nice but flustered. Their dancing was terrific and they made the dancing "show" fun every night.Formal night the dinner was nice, prime rib and lil lobster tail. Night 3, the dinner was terrible, 3 entrees between us, pork, fish and chicken...all no good. But there was a Mexican buffet at 11, that was muy bueno!!!Night 4 dinner was amazing, I think we had all 6 apps between us and all were great. The pasta and the roast chicken were both very tasty. The buffet was fine for breakfast, lines at some parts, walk right up at others. Standard breakfast stuff at all with nothing unique like on some other lines.
Day 2 we sailed into Nassau at 12 and rented some mopeds. Getting off and on was quick and easy and Nassau was not very crowded bc no big ships were in port. Went to the new rum factory, Gatlings, terrific beautiful stop. people at our table had paid 200 plus for Atlantis and did not seem so thrilled. We ate fried fish and cruised around and had a nice day.
Day 3 was half Moon cay which is a terrific stop. The island was beautiful and had an area for everyone, A crowded family area, a loud area in front of a giant pirate ship bar and deserted enclaves further down. Much to my husbands displeasure, I chose the area with loud party music and dancing. He did love the Captain Morgan bar and sat on the top deck admiring the view and smoking cigars. There is all sorts of stuff to do, for pay or free. DH enjoyed a nice nature hike while I enjoyed laying around.
Day 4 was a sea day and sadly it was misty and not great out. We ate lunch in MDR(nice) and played silly games like scattergories and family feud with the staff in the Metro Bar. I enjoy the art auctions so sat in that and then resumed eating and drinking....
The night life was pretty decent up until about 1. Metro had fun songs that everyone knows and cruise director did a nice job leading a greatest hits event. Pool parties and Stripes had lots of dancing. Piano bar was a disappointment bc of its poor location, never much going on there. One show was ok at best and next night was a Marriage and love game show, barely entertainment. There are a bunch of comedy shows which is nice. Pretty raunchy comedy for the adult shows, did not make it to family shows.
The ship is small so all the public ares are right on top of each other which makes it easy to check out whats going on. The pool is typical,small. The water slide looks the same on all the ships. Hot tubs were crowded and not very hot but still fun. This was not a dream vacation but was still worth the the price. I would go again tomorrow. (; Less

A Florida prankster faces a battery charge after he administered wedgies to unsuspecting patrons at a movie theater.
Charles Ross, 18, of Bradenton, Fla., was arrested on the misdemeanor charge by Manatee County police on Monday at the Royal Palm theater. According to a police report, he was harassing customers by grabbing them "by the back of [their] pants and pulled them up hard."
After administering the wedgie, Ross would then confront victims, asking if they want to hit him, police said. One of his victims stated that the battery was unwanted and filled out an affidavit.

very good overall package shower leaked
The bar car parking facilities
The Comat was a very well maintained and clean guest house, was a little dated in some decor but was all very clean. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast had a great choice and was beautifully cooked. We would definately stay here again.
on suite shower and toilet altho too small decoration and comfort was poor
A very warm welcome and pleasantly surprised by the upgrade to our room. The breakfast was superb and plentyfull. Would definately stay again. The only problem we had was the shower, we found it difficult tooperate.
because of the size and layout having two bed room double and twin.
Lovely old fashion seaside hotel None worth mentioning
no bar, and dog smell
friendly staff excellent food very clean And very helpful I cannot complain about anything as everything was as expected of a 4star And the service was excellent
We only used this hotel as we had limited time to book Over priced for what is effectively a B&B

Updated to 3.4.2 – now I can log in, but everything after that gives 404 error
I've gotten myself in way over my head today. A month or 2 ago a web developer friend of mine upgraded WordPress for me. I guess it was a BIG job as I hadn't done it since the site was created for me in 2008 (yikes!) and that version of WP was too old to use the automatic update option. He told me to go ahead an upgrade regularly from now on, so today I did. But I just clicked the update button assuming it would all be okay. It is not. I can still log in, and I get the dashboard bar at the top but all options from there take me to a 404 message. I did some looking on support forums, but I'm not advanced and I'm not sure I can follow the instructions properly. I don't want to go back to my friend if possible because last time I thought I was asking for a few minutes of help and he ended up working on it for days….all for a measly 12 pack of beer!
My site is http://www.crnaseminars.com
Things I have already tried:
Rename plugins folder – nothing changed
Rename theme folder (I'm using Revolution-30) – white screen
Here's a thread that seems to be the same problem I have http://wordpress.org/support/topic/website-is-working-but-cannot-access-dashboard
I'm too big of a chicken to do any replacing of files, since I don't know how to backup other than copying the whole WP folder using FTP, and from my reading I think that there might be more to it than that – databases? PHP somethings? More things I've never heard of?
Thanks for any direction you can give me!

President Obama is creating an agency to challenge what officials see as unfair trade practices, including those by China.
"The president believes that we can't wait to crack down on unfair trade violations and ensure a level playing field for American workers," says a White House statement.
Later this morning, the president will sign an executive order creating an Interagency Trade Enforcement Center.
The president's order "will institute a more aggressive 'whole-of-government' approach to getting tough on trade enforcement by monitoring and enforcing U.S. rights under international and domestic trade rules and countering unfair subsidies that tilt the global market against U.S. firms," said the White House.
The AFP wire service provides some background on the China trade dispute:
Republican White House candidates have accused Obama of being soft on Beijing and vowed to take a tougher line on China's alleged manipulation of its currency, with frontrunner Mitt Romney vowing to declare Beijing a currency manipulator, paving the way for US retaliatory measures.
US lawmakers have accused China of artificially undervaluing its yuan in order to boost its own exports, hurting US manufacturers and hobbling the economic recovery.
During a visit earlier this month by China's Vice President Xi Jinping -- expected to become president in 2013 -- Obama tacitly referred to the economic disputes by saying all nations had to observe global "rules of the road."
"We want to work with China to make sure that everybody is working by the same rules of the road when it comes to the world economic system," Obama said, as Xi sat by his side ahead of their Oval Office talks.
"That includes insuring that there is a balanced trading flow not only between the United States and China but around the world."
At a separate event during his tour, Xi had expressed hope that US election-year politics would not have a "regrettable impact" on ties between the world's two largest economies.

Kris Jenner Posts "Date Night" Selfie with Ben Flajnik
Did Kris Jenner just admit to dating 31-year old Bachelor Ben Flajnik? Nah. But she did post a selfie of she and Ben on a "date" last night.
The cheeky 58-year old Keeping Up With the Kardashians mom, who recently separated from husband Bruce Jenner, took to social media last night to poke fun at a recent Us Weekly cover story.
and tweeted out:
Date night with @benflajnik and @Lizheinlein http://t.co/48NjYflUWh

Kim has denied the two are romantically involved to E! News, "Ben and I are good friends. I think he is a great guy but we aren't dating!" They just like to go to dinner, concerts and they might get away together for a few days in December.
Way to keep 'em guessing, Kris.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 2/11/2012 (1726 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A 320-tire self-propelled modular trailer (SPMT) similar to one once used to transport the space shuttle Endeavour through the streets of Los Angeles has a special assignment in Winnipeg beginning Sunday.
It will be used to haul the first of three massive transformers from a manufacturing plant near Pembina Highway to Manitoba Hydro's Riel Station east of the city.
Each transformer is worth $5 million and weighs 175,000 kilograms when prepared for transport. The first will hit the road Sunday at 8 p.m., departing from the CG Power Systems Canada plant on Rockman Street.
Because of the size of the cargo, the SPMT must take a circuitous route some 144 kilometres long. It will travel at a glacial speed of five km/h, exiting the city via McGillivray Boulevard, rumbling down highways 3, 75 and 59, among other roads, as it winds its way to its destination.
Each of the transformers will take three days -- or, rather, three nights -- to arrive at the Riel station.
The route was designed to avoid tight city streets and narrow overpasses.
"It's probably the biggest single piece of equipment we've had to move," said Hydro spokesman Glenn Schneider.
The objects are being billed as the heaviest ever transported by road in Manitoba.
The transformers are being installed to enhance the reliability of Manitoba Hydro's 500,000-volt line linking the province's grid to Minnesota. The line handles the bulk of the utility's power exports and imports.
When disassembled for shipping, each transformer measures about seven metres tall by four metres wide. However, when fully assembled with bushings, insulators, cooling units and other accessories, to be added on site, each will stand almost 12 metres tall, and measure 9.6 metres across.
The weight of each fully assembled transformer will be almost 295,000 kilograms. By comparison, an empty 747-400 jumbo jet weighs 179,000 kilograms.
The 320-wheeled SPMT allows the tremendous weight of the transformers to be distributed evenly over a large area of road, preventing damage to the concrete and asphalt.

James Paul Gee, who received his Ph.D. in linguistics from Stanford, is author of extensive writings and books on video games and learning, and is currently Professor at Arizona State University. Gee shares some profound thoughts about video games which are real eye-openers.
You may be surprised by Gee's assertions about:
- video games as assessment;
- textbooks as reference only;
- words as tools for problem solving;
- how kids want to produce, not just consume;
- how kids see media as cross platform, not in individual silos;
- how digital has not prevented kids from writing or reading;
- and in the final few minutes, how "we have de-professionalized teachers" and
- how we can "make teaching a much more sexy job".
So the next time you fret that your child is on a mindless video game (of course, depending which one), take a chill pill. It may not be as bad as you think. Video below:

Another year over – again! 2012 was bit of an odd year for us, there was the bad – losing my Great Aunt, discovering the house isn't earthed and needs a re-wire (that's a whole post in itself!), the move to Vancouver falling through at the last moment and having a few months with no work – that all sucked!.
But there has been good things too – I turned 40, our friends moved back from NZ and we got to see lots of them and their wonderful children, the lump I found in my breast that turned out to be nothing more than a couple of cysts, being nominated for The Mads Awards, the new bathroom, finally discovering what I'm allergic to and being able to treat it/avoid it as appropriate. And just having the luxury of a wonderful healthy family and friends, I can never ask for more than that.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year and I hope to see you all again in 2013!

FLORENCE, S.C. – Both the Francis Marion University men's and women's cross country teams will open their 2010 seasons on Friday evening (Sept. 10) when the squads compete in the adidas Seahawk Invitational meet in Wilmington, N.C.
The women's 4,000-meter race will begin at 6 p.m., followed by the men's 6,000-meter race at 6:30 p.m. The meet will be held on the UNC Wilmington campus and will feature seven squads: three from Division I and four from Division II.
"We are excited to start the season," said 10th-year FMU head coach Mark Bluman. "Morale is high and the team members are anxious to run against outside competition. This year's group of newcomers have been the quickest ever to buy into our philosophy. It is an enthusiastic group, and their positive attitude has been contagious. The teams have done everything I have asked of them this pre-season."
The Patriot men return four runners from last year's squad. Sophomore Justin Albertson leads the returnees. The Aiken native was the Patriots' second finisher in all seven meets in 2009, including a 31st-place showing at the Peach Belt Conference Championship Meet.
Also returning are seniors Ben Miller and Jerry Roth, and sophomore Ian Wallace. "Ian has had a good summer of training, while Ben and Jerry will look to go out with strong senior campaigns," Bluman said.
The men's team has two newcomers in junior college transfer Ryan Woloszyn and freshman Michael Bigelow, a product of Wilson High School.
The Francis Marion women return two runners, senior Amanda Booker and junior Samantha Smith, while welcoming four freshmen newcomers: London Barnhill (Hemingway, S.C. / Johnsonville High School), Charity Hawkins (Woodruff, S.C.), LaMeisha Jackson (Warrenville, S.C.), and Whitney Wagner (Cullowhee, N.C.).
"Whitney has exceeded expectations during the pre-season, and I look forward to her performances this fall. Both Amanda and Samantha trained hard this summer and look to lead the 2010 squad," Bluman added. Smith was the squad's second-leading finisher in all seven races in 2009.
Miller, Roth, and Smith were all named to the PBC All-Academic squads for their respective sports last year.
Both FMU squads were named to the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association's (USTFCCCA) list of All-Academic Teams following the 2009 season.
Francis Marion will compete in seven meets this fall, including the Peach Belt Championships, Nov. 6 in Augusta, Ga. Other regular-season matches include the 22nd-annual Asics-Winthrop Invitational on Sept. 18, the Bridgestone-Pacer Invitational on Sept. 25 in Aiken, the Queens University of Charlotte Invitational on Oct. 15, and the Mount Olive College Invitational on Oct. 22.

WVU plans $106 million upgrades to athletic venues
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Milan Puskar Stadium, home of West Virginia's football team for 34 years, will be the immediate beneficiary of a $106 million renovation of the university's sports facilities, athletic director Oliver Luck said Tuesday.
One of the upgrades especially pleases Dana Holgorsen, who has criticized the team meeting room.
Among eight renditions of stadium upgrades displayed during Luck's news conference was that of a new team room with large, plush, theater-style seats. Luck said it will cost $5 million, which has been raised by the Mountaineer Athletic Club as part of an overall goal of $25 million.
"A football program needs to operate at maximum efficiency in order to be successful," Holgorsen said. "We've been working hard on trying to get out there to raise the money that we need to be able to make the needed facility improvements a reality. No. 1 was the weight room, and we got that accomplished.
"The second thing is your meeting space. You have to be able to meet appropriately, which we can't," he said. "The team room isn't big enough for the entire squad to meet. Since 1980, there haven't been any improvements done to the room, minus a few video updates. Because of private donations, we are now able to get that accomplished."
The rest of the financing for the projects will come from a $75 million university-issued bond backed by guaranteed money from the Big 12 and $6 million in guaranteed revenue from WVU's multimedia contract with IMG.
WVU receives a partial share of Big 12 revenues but will become eligible for a full share starting in 2015-16. By then, the conference is expected to pay member schools about $30 million a year.
Other stadium updates cited by Luck include renovation and expansion of the stadium's concourses, restrooms, entrance gates and concessions; a new scoreboard in the north end zone; upgrading of box seats; additions of four LED boards mounted the field-level corners and coverings to the field walls.
He added that a persistent problem with pyrite, a type of rock that is causing structural damage, needs to be addressed.
Luck said there is no "timeline" but hopes the major structural stadium work can begin after the upcoming football season.
One immediate nonfootball upgrade will be a new marquee in front of WVU Coliseum.
All of these are considered the "initial projects." The design work is finished, and the costs determined. Regarding renovations to WVU Coliseum, a 44-year-old structure that hosts basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and wrestling, "We have a lot of options of things that we're looking at but really haven't decided finally on what we want to do," Luck said. "But we know there are a number of things that really need to be done."
He said a "top priority" is renovating the lower concourse in light of the College of Physical Activity and Sports Science vacating the facility. Renovating concessions and restrooms also are high on the list, Luck said.
Luck said other planned improvements include a new indoor track, renovation of the Natatorium and tennis courts, additional locker rooms for nonrevenue sports and repurposing Hawley Field. Increasing Coliseum parking also remains a possibility, he said.
The $20 million Monongalia County baseball stadium in Granville, W.Va., which will house the WVU baseball team and possibly a minor league club, is a separately funded deal.
All plans require approval from the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission, which meets later this month, but that is considered a formality.

"Red-Card Solution" For Immigration Gains Popularity
A so-called "red-card solution" to immigration is gaining momentum in Washington.
Immigration reform expert Helen Krieble says it fills the need for a viable guest-worker scenario that prioritizes American business needs.
The program would be part of a larger immigration reform package.
Despite the interest in the proposal, immigration reform legislation has stalled in the United States House of Representatives, and no vote is scheduled.

The Dukes of Hazzard returns (sort of)
About a month ago I spotted this old toy at my brother-in-law's childhood home.
I had the exact same toy as a kid in New York. (I could not locate his Luke Duke action figure for this photo shoot.)
The roof opens up and you can put Bo & Luke into the car and recreate all the amazing jumps you saw on the TV show.
So in love with the Dukes of Hazzard story were we, that my sisters and I converted the red-stained backyard picnic table into a perfectly acceptable General Lee replica.
It didn't move, but when we were turning the frisbee-turned-steering-wheel, it sure did feel like we were outrunning the local law.
We even made a poster of the Rebel flag and taped it onto the roof of our wooden car. (We forgot to remove it and after one rain it was utterly destroyed.)
So, maybe that's why I noticed the new AutoTrader commercial seemed to be missing... something...
And here is how the General Lee was born:
Hmmm... not quite as racisty as some might've thought.
But if Auto Trader made the decision to not shoot the roof (and omit the flag) why does the name General Lee get to stay?
What about the horn that blares Dixie?
Wouldn't it all be equally offensive and politically incorrect?
History and politics aside, here is a cool behind-the-scenes video from the commercial shoot:

Republicans Are Blowing Up Negotiations Because Boehner Is Weak & Republicans Are Crazy
...amd folks are coming out of the wood work saying that President Obama caved?
The revenue numbers on the table are about what everyone thought would be in the range of a deal. The taxes to spending cuts are about 1 to 1, which many folks who consider "balanced."
Yet, despite the fact that it cuts spending and make serious in-roads on cutting the defict, Boehner is grand standing and trying to pass a bill that Democrats have uniformly rejected out of hand?
Why? Because Boehner learned Tuesday night that he does not have the votes for any deal that Democrats could concievably accept. Thus, the whole purpose of Plan B is for Republicans to pass the most reasonable sounding bill that they can stomach, which they know Democrats will not accept, so that they can try to get the corporate media to support them in blaming Democrats.
My question is why do so many liberals fall for it? If President Obama did not make any movement at all on spending, the public would blame him and Democrats for not being serious about addressing the deficit, which would strengthen the hand of Republicans when it came to the debt limit crisis that they will cook up in a month or so.
Seriously, the same folks who point to the 2011 debt limit talks forget that Boehner and Republicans walked away from a possible deal that would even make Boehner's Plan B look great. Now, President Obama's rumored proposal is still far better than anything that was put on the table in 2011.
My read is that President Obama does seriously want to address the deficit and he is willing to compromise to get to deal. Yet, the truth that we repeatedly ignore is that Republicans are way to extreme to make any plausible deal. I personally think that President Obama knows that Boehner can't close a deal now. Boehner knows it too. Boehner went through a month of negotiations that he knew he did not have the authority to close a deal on. Now, with President Obama making some concessions, Boehner is trying to find a graceful way to blow up any deal.
Republicans do not want a deal! While on the liberal side, you have some folks who happily say lets go over the cliff, on the Republican side, these folks are in the majority because they really do not care about creating another recession of risking a credit default.

1. I believe this whole "negotiating" thing is nothing but elaborate Kabuki theatrics
and posturing - on both sides.
The rethugs aren't going to accept anything that Obama can propose and still appear as if he's trying to compromise. I believe anything that relates to SS and/or Medicare is something that he's floating out there to make it seem like he's trying to play ball with them. But...I don't think for a second that he believes they're going to accept anything that's being proposed. At this point, both Obama and Boehner are merely playing political ping-pong with their respective parties' sacred cows: SS and perpetual tax cuts. At the end of the day, nothing is going to happen. Obama knows that the Dems (most of them at any rate) in both houses of congress won't go along with cuts to SS regardless of how the cuts are formulated. He also knows that Boehner doesn't have any political power to wield in order to cram any proposal down the throats of the house teabaggers. I think this is all political posturing and playing out the clock. In January, there will be more Dems in both houses and Boehner will probably lose his Speaker status. In any case, it appears to me that Obama thinks that the only deal that can be done will come after the dive off the fiscal cliff and after the rethugs become tarred with it having been their fault. Further, I think he belives that any deal that eventually passes in the Senate will have to be aproved by the majority of Dems and that won't be likely if SS is on the table.

42. Just Pointing Out That Boehner's Plan B Fail Proves My Point
This is not elaborate Kabuki theater. This is a train wreck of governance on the Republican side that the corporate media has been trying to hide. Look at the news reports that tried to paint Plan B as some sort of strategic master stroke by the Republicans. Even liberal media outlets were painting Plan B as a huge blow to President Obama with Republicans working together to put pressure on Democrats.
The truth is that Republicans have no coherent idea of how to govern. Yet, watch the media continue to give them a free pass. I bet David Gergen will start advising the President to take whatever comes out of the House because you can't blame the Republicans. They are just crazy like that, thus President Obama is responsible if we go over the cliff and default on the Nation's debt.

6. Look, given what Republicans have become,
the chained CPI is the best deal we can get. Yes, SS should not be decreased, but it's effects could be mitigated by food stamps and other programs.
I am not a knee-jerk cheerleader for the President because I base my praise/criticism of him on results. This chained CPI deal is not catastrophic, and the tax increase on high incomes is badly needed. This deal is not the end of the world!

40. I've switched to your side on the chained CPI
I was listening to Thom Hartman and he explained how the chained CPI would work. I thought it would be a fixed percentage, but it isn't. It will just keep diminishing SS as recipients change their buying habits. If an item becomes too expensive, recipients will cut back on that item, and their SS check will be reduced because they've stopped buying that item, not because that item has become less expensive!
I think that Obama is caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place. On the one hand he is bending over backward to get the Repukes to agree to something, anything, and when he gives them what they want, they ask for more.
Obama's first mistake was to negotiate with the Repukes in the first place.

13. Partially agree
I don't think food stamps will mitigate the problem much, but if they formulate the CPI in a way that will protect poorer beneficiaries I think it is better than other changes the GOP wants that would fundamentally change the structure of SS and Medicare. Also, cuts to SS benefits can always be mitigated by a tweak or a refundable tax credit. Something like raising the Medicare age would have been much much harder to undo or mitigate.

I am all for making our voices heard but it is mind boggling to see people here call the president a fraud and a secret Republican and other disparaging names without knowing how the CPI thing will be structured.
People seem to have a knee-jerk reaction to anything that could sustain SS over the long term except raising the cap, which I agree is the best solution but not one that could ever get passed in this congress, and not something that should really be considered until the economy recovers.

sadly might be the saving grace to the President bending too far their direction.
There is NO reason to go as far as he has gone to this point, even.
But, you are likely correct that these lunatics can't even take a deal they don't deserve (in that is sucks enough that in their lunatic world view they should be happy to get it).

14. You don't think he predicted them blowing this up?
It would be one thing if he made the offer in private. But the fact that he leaked it tells me that he knew they wouldn't take it and wants to make sure they get blamed if we go over the cliff.

15. POTUS is smarter than lot of us
But putting SS on the table was not cool unless he knew they would reject his proposal.
At this juncture we NEED to go over the cliff and simply pick off some vulnerable GOPers to reduce the taxes on the 99% .
Very doable given that GOP refusal assures their losing the House 21 months later.
Deal with the nonsense of spending limit after that

24. Going over the cliff won't protect SS
Because the GOP will still have leverage to force cuts (maybe bigger ones) when the debt ceiling has to be raised. If the president can resolve that now entitlements are safer, arguably.
If we go over the cliff, there will be pressure on the president and Congress to act quickly. The GOP might offer everything the president wants except the debt ceiling, and he will be under pressure not to hold it up because of that. So he might have to sign what they pass, especially if they give him the middle class tax cuts and unemployment insurance, and then he will have given away his leverage in the debt ceiling fight and they can demand, as they did before, $1 in spending cuts for every $1 they raise the ceiling by.
That's why I think any deal that deals w/the debt ceiling now, preferably forever but even for 2 years, might be worth making some sacrifices for, as awful as the chained CPI is, because this deal is a LOT better than the deal we would have gotten in 2011, and arguably better than the deal that would emerge if the debt ceiling is dealt with separately from the tax issue.

16. The point that's being obscured: The federal budget deficit is TOO SMALL.
You write, "My read is that President Obama does seriously want to address the deficit...." If by "address" you mean "reduce" then you're actually criticizing Obama. Any plan that reduces the 2013 deficit will retard the recovery; if it reduces the deficit enough, it will trigger a new recession.
BTW, this includes plans that raise taxes on the rich. There is a trickle-down effect, in that lower taxes for the rich do help spark economic activity. It's just not a very efficient way to do it (even aside from fairness). Adding a dollar to the federal deficit through tax breaks for the rich has much less stimulative effect than other methods, such as extending unemployment benefits. Therefore, going over the cliff is better for the economy than what the Republicans want. Still, in this context, "better" means "does less harm."

All the indicators point to a massive deflationary spiral if we don't keep stimulating this economy, imo.

34. Doesn't that largely depend on HOW the deficit is reduced?
President Obama's rumored proposal reduces the deficit, while INCREASING stimulative spending ... and, for the record, keeping the current CPI model, what many here are hair on fire about, is not stimulative.

39. Yes, that's certainly a factor.
My point is that any deal to reduce the deficit could be improved by adding more stimulative spending, to get it to the point where it would increase rather than reduce the deficit. That would be better for the country.
I'm not holding Obama entirely at fault here. The result of Republican intransigence is that there's essentially no hope of getting a good stimulus package.
Obama is to blame, however, for falling into line with the deficit hysteria. He should be taking it on directly. For example, instead of saying that government needs to tighten its belt in tough times, which is exactly wrong, he should be going on TV to explain why the economy needs the federal government to run a deficit right now. Wider popular understanding of the point would somewhat weaken the Republicans' leverage, and also set them up to suffer in 2014 for their intransigence.
As for the CPI, my offhand guess is that paying higher Social Security benefits is, overall, less stimulative than some things, such as extending unemployment insurance benefits, but more stimulative than others, such as tax cuts for the rich. Generally, there's more stimulative effect when people are more likely to spend the money they get. Social Security goes to people at all levels of income, so the stimulative effect would be an average. Why do you say that keeping the current CPI is not stimulative? I'd consider it stimulative as compared with the proposed switch to chained CPI.

27. Boehner's Plan B is a joke. Balanced?? Tax rate increases on over $ 1 million while also
eliminating credits for the poor and middle class. Sure mr. speaker -- that is balanced. Business leaders are on Obama's side. They are willing to take increased taxes on the top 2 brackets (now $ 400,000) and for sure 20% max on dividends (obama 's plan this year was at ordinary rates). If the cliff happens, then the dividends go to regular rates; rates go up on everyone; payroll tax cut is eliminated; stocks will dip; another recession to the businesses. Good job Mr. Speaker.
Oh, and does the credit rating go down again? Another historic moment for the speaker or should I say weeper of the house.

28. While I agree with you in general,
I'm still alarmed that the President would include Social Security in any deal. It doesn't contribute to the deficit, except to the extent that he's using general funds to pay for the payroll tax cut. It's a program that a huge percentage of the public needs. and it's something they've been trying to destroy since the 1930s. Let him find other "spending" to negotiate.

43. I agree that republicans do not want any deal with the President. Boehner is just playing the
GOP game of obstruction. Boehner is doing exactly what teabaggers want him to do and he is perfectly comfortable with it. It's bullshit that "he can't control his caucus"- it's all a game to them and he is playing it.

By Steve Gunn
CHICAGO – So the teachers of Chicago are back in their classrooms this morning.
It's difficult to say why they decided to end their strike today. Perhaps Karen Lewis, president of the Chicago Teachers Union, actually had enough influence over her radical constituents to lead them back to work, despite their refusal a few days ago. Or perhaps they decided to go back to work before a judge ordered them to do so later this week.
Whatever the case, this situation will be remembered as a huge setback for public education, in Illinois and the rest of the nation. Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the school board waved the white flag of surrender and sold out the children of Chicago.
The teachers did not get the ridiculous 30 percent raise they originally sought, but came away with a seven percent increase over three years, according to the LA Times. That's absurd in a school district with a budget deficit approaching the frightening $1 billion mark.
The teachers also maintained raises based on nothing but seniority and earned college credits. Merit pay, which would have rewarded the best teachers and put pressure on the underperformers, did not make the final cut.
The teachers reportedly also pushed through a policy forcing the district to call back laid off teachers for open staff positions, instead of allowing principals to fill the jobs with the best available teachers.
And worst of all, Emanuel backed off on his plan to make student test scores worth 50 percent of teacher evaluations. Instead they will only comprise 30 percent, which means, as ABC News put it, the system "will be more forgiving for teachers."
As a result, thousands of mediocre or miserable teachers who could have been weeded out by a tougher evaluation system will remain employed. That probably means that students will continue to struggle academically, because the district did not insist on replacing bad teachers with good ones.
The only silver lining would be a change in Illinois state law that bans teacher strikes once and for all. A total of 37 states have banned teacher walkouts, and even Pennsylvania, the teacher strike capitol of the nation, is considering legislation that would do so.
Current Illinois statute almost invites teachers to strike by laying out the conditions under which it can occur. That sort of law is an insult to families and students. Public schools exist for children, not employees, and students have an absolute right to an education uninterrupted by adult squabbles over money and control.
Illinois state lawmakers should demonstrate they have the courage to stand up for children by banning teacher strikes. If no such action is taken, we will know they are more interested in pleasing the unions than protecting the families of their state.

Eurozone cuts deficits, total debt rises
BRUSSELS – The 17 countries that use the euro still face an uphill struggle to control their debts in spite of managing to slash government deficits to 4.1% of economic output in 2011, official data show.
Figures reported Monday by the European Union's statistics office confirmed the effects of harsh austerity programs on the eurozone members' economies, which in 2010 ran an overall deficit of 6.2% of gross domestic product. Yet despite these efforts, overall debt rose from 85.3% of GDP to 87.2% — the highest level since the euro was created in 1999.
After a financial crisis that has now dragged on for nearly five years, Monday's figures underscore how difficult it will be for the eurozone to bring its deficits and debts below the EU-stipulated limits of a deficit of 3% or less and debt of 60% or less of GDP.
STORY: Dutch government collapses over debt woes
STORY: IMF gets $430 billion to combat global economic woes
This task will become even harder as the eurozone's economy falls back into recession. Separate data released Monday indicated that the private sector in the 17-country block continued to shrink in April. The purchasing managers' index for eurozone, compiled by private data firm Markit, fell to a five-month low of 47.4, down from 49.1 in March. A level below 50 means that the private sector is contracting.
According to Eurostat's data, Ireland's deficit of 13.1% of GDP was by far the highest as the bailed-out country continued to spend billions rescuing its struggling banks. Eurostat expressed reservations about the 13.1% figure, amid disagreement with the Irish government whether €5.8 billion ($7.65 billion) in aid to two nationalized banks should be included in the country's deficit.
In the euro zone
Countries that use the euro currency: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain
Ireland, which was granted €67.5 billion ($89.05 billion) in rescue loans from the EU and the International Monetary Fund in 2010, argues that the bank bailouts should not be included in the government deficit, as some of that money may be recovered. Without the bank aid, Ireland's deficit would have been 9.4% of GDP, still the highest in the EU.
In a statement, Ireland's finance ministry said the higher figure was the result of a technical "reclassification" of assets, pointing out that the 9.4% figure was far below the 10.6% target it has promised to meet in return for the rescue loans. In 2010, massive bank bailouts propelled Ireland's deficit to a record 31.2% of economic output. The finance ministry said this year's deficit should fall to 8.2% of GDP.
Greece's deficit of 9.1% of GDP was not much better than Ireland's, and Athens has already started injecting billions of euros into its own banks, which are reeling from a restructuring of the country's government debts. While the restructuring reduced Greece's debt levels, the resulting bank bailouts may push up its deficit in the short-term.
Spain, which has seen its borrowing costs rise sharply in recent weeks, ran a deficit of 8.5%.
Across the 27-country EU the average 2011 deficit was 4.5% of GDP, down from 6.5% in 2010. Among the EU states that do not use the euro, the U.K. had the highest deficit, which reached 8.4% of GDP in the year ended March 31. In contrast to the rest of the EU, the U.K.'s fiscal year runs from April 1 to March 31.

Reprint with Permission from Robert Half TechnologyAuthor & Source: Career Experts at Robert Half TechnologyThe Write StuffProvided by the career experts at Robert Half Technology
Although you may spend more time writing code than writing memos, few IT professionals can get through the workday without composing some sort of business document, whether it's a request to an executive to invest in a new server or an e-mail to a department assistant about the features of a recently installed software application.No matter how formal or informal the document, your writing gives readers a lasting impression about your professionalism and expertise. If you didn't study journalism in college, however, don't worry. The key to writing effectively has less to do with creativity and knowledge of formal rules than it does with relaying information clearly and concisely. Here are some ways to do just that:Keep your audience in mindAlways tailor your communication to the backgrounds of your readers. Talk of "IP addresses" and "user interfaces" may be well understood by your colleagues, but not by those with little or no background in technology. People are unlikely to research unclear terminology, so use plain English when writing for diverse audiences.
Get to the pointIf your document is a follow-up to a specific concern or question, don't bury your response. When the IT director wants to know how quickly new desktop systems will be implemented, provide your answer at the beginning, before you shift the focus to other aspects of the project. Your goal is to capture the audience's attention early on so they will continue reading.If your e-mail or print document is too lengthy, busy professionals may not take the time to read it all. So, try to keep your communications brief when possible. With complex topics that must be addressed more thoroughly, consider using subheads such as, "projected costs" and "competing products" to organize the information.Be professionalYou never know who may ultimately read your messages: E-mails, for example, can easily be forwarded to others, so it's wise to consistently maintain a professional and uncontroversial tone. After all, that casual e-mail about how your boss "always chooses second-rate technologies" just may end up in his or her inbox. Re-reading your documents before distributing them helps ensure nothing could be misinterpreted or cause problems should unintended recipients see them. Also keep a sharp eye out for typos or grammatical errors, which could distract from your message and lessen your credibility.At the same time, be careful about how you respond to disturbing or offensive messages from colleagues. Try to give the other person the benefit of the doubt. For instance, if a coworker tells those in the department that you "leave the office at five each day," she may not be questioning your commitment to your job but rather noting your schedule so staff know when you can be reached. Avoid hasty responses that could come back to haunt you.Writing may not come naturally to you, but if you keep the audience in mind and are as concise and professional as possible, others will be hard pressed to prove otherwise.

Looking forward to this! Also like Digital Science's idea of Envato Item "Like" buttons, definitely something for the devs to think about.

A dude with no sales or bought items can Like a thing? In this case one can make multiple accounts and spam-Like a file. Or offer people something in return if they register to like things.
True, ok then maybe only buyers with at least one purchase and authors with 1 sale can like items – problem solved
Also could be cool if there is a section which shows most liked items from authors. So it's almost an expert opinion which items are the best.

Pregnancy, postpartum and breastfeeding. A marathon welcome to motherhood! Needless to say, our bodies go through a lot, especially our breasts and nipples, and most moms understand the extent of breast pain and tenderness associated with pregnancy and early stage breastfeeding. Sore breasts deserve a bit of TLC and the Shower Hug™ provides it!
The Shower Hug™ brings therapeutic relief that is long lasting, by providing support and relief when and where it is needed most. For many Moms, their only "me-time" in a day is their time spent showering. We believe that showers are a time to cleanse the body and renew the spirit. They are about rituals. They are about relaxation. They are a mini "time-out" and sore boobs should not get in the way of Mom's precious time alone! Made in the USA.
For use in the shower:
For use outside the shower:
Mom may also wear her Shower Hug outside of the shower to hold therapeutic warm or cool packs with hands free convenience, and it is the perfect breast support to sleep in! It is nonrestrictive, super soft, absorbent and easy to nurse baby while wearing.
