Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio on Sunday defended Mitt Romney's ad campaign attacking President Barack Obama over plans for GM and Chrysler to expand production overseas.
"The fact is that we now make Jeeps here in Toledo, Ohio, that we're proud to send to China, to Asia; we export about 25 percent of what we make here, and so if they're going to start production facilities overseas, obviously we're going to lose some of our exports here," Portman said on CNN's "State of the Union."
He continued: "So that's - that's all the ad says."
Production plans by GM and Chrysler carry weighted political significance around the issue of manufacturing and jobs because of the industry's heavy presence in Ohio and throughout the battleground Midwest.
The Obama campaign strongly underscores the president's decision to accelerate the taxpayer bailout of both companies early in his presidency, a move he and other supporters say saved or created thousands of jobs and positioned those businesses to be successful when sales rebounded.
While enjoying a resurgence at home since, the U.S. auto industry has sought to boost its business in China's fast-growing auto sector. Growing business in Asia has become even more important to American auto manufacturers, considering the industry's woes in economically hard-hit Europe.
Republicans have also branded Obama weak on China over trade.
Recent television and radio ads in Ohio claim GM plans to double the number of cars built there and that Chrysler plans to start making Jeeps -- its iconic brand - in China as well.
"Under President Obama, GM cut 15,000 American jobs, but they are planning to double the number of cars built in China which means 15,000 more jobs for China," the radio ad states. "And now comes word that Chrysler is starting to build cars in, you guessed it, China."
The ad concludes arguing that Romney "will stand up for the auto industry. In Ohio, not China."
The commercials sparked sharp rebuke from executives at both automakers, who argued the expansion would not affect American jobs - as noted in the original Bloomberg report that served as the source of Romney's ads.
Obama also responded this week, describing the spots as scare tactics in a last-minute push for Ohio votes.
"You don't scare hard working Americans just to scare up some votes," Obama said Friday to a crowd in Hilliard, Ohio. "That's not what being president is all about, that's not leadership."
As a result of Romney's recent ad, Obama said employees at Jeep are calling their bosses, worried their jobs will be shipped overseas, a claim in the ad that "everybody knows is not true."
"The car companies themselves have told Governor Romney to knock it off," he added.
The ad was rated "Pants on Fire" by the independent, fact-checking group PolitiFact.com. And former President Bill Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden this week tag teamed in their attacks against Romney over the ad.
But Portman on Sunday said the spots were not wrong on accuracy.
"Jeep has said they're going to reopen a facility that was closed after DaimlerChrysler, you know, broke apart years ago and it'll be in China to produce for the Chinese market and that's all the ad says. So there's nothing inaccurate about it," he told CNN Chief Political Correspondent Candy Crowley.
He also argued Romney has the edge in Ohio and sounded confident about winning the state, a battleground viewed by many political observers as the must-win for the presidential election.
No Republican has ever won the White House without carrying the Buckeye State.
"I think we're going to win Ohio. I really do," he said.

Hi. You sound like you are really doing well post op. I hope all continues to be so good and you recover to full health and strength.My 17 year old son tore his acl last year in September playing football and had his hamstring reconstruction in January. He is Motocross MAD and just before his injury we bought him a Yamaha 125, got a tow bar put on the car and purchased a trailer so we could get him to a track. Unfortunately due to the injury, he hasn't yet been out on his bike at all but at the weekend we bought him some Dom joy braces. He is going to have a go on his bike as soon as the braces are sent to us (should be tomorrrow). I'm a bit of a nervous wreck and am hoping these braces live up to all the hype about them protecting the acl. When all is healed up and well with you, are you going back onto your bike and will you wear braces?
.... For proof of this look at all of the pro motocross riders who have snapped their ACL wearing custom made carbon braces worth over £2000!

Pistons push Drummond to get healthy
by Vince Ellis and Perry A. Farrell, USA TODAY Sports
MILWAUKEE — Long term, there is nothing wrong with Andre Drummond's back that a little rest and some of his mother'sJamaican cooking can't fix.
But in the short term, the news that Drummond will be out for four to six weeks is a small blow to the Detroit Pistons because the rookie from Connecticut has created a buzz among fans.
The last 2 1/2 months of the season was going to feature Drummond paired with teammate Greg Monroe, allowing the frontcourt of the future to grow accustomed to playing together. It's a pairing coach Lawrence Frank has used more as the season has progressed, so the injury is a setback for those plans.
Still, Frank said before the Pistons beat the Milwaukee Bucks, 105-100, on Saturday that Drummond has to get to work.
"Right now his job is to get healthy," Frank said before the game. "That's his job.
"He has to do everything he can to rehab and listen, follow the directions of our training staff and doctors to get himself right."
Frank said the coaching staff will make a point to keep Drummond involved, showing him game film and letting him learn by watching.
"He gets a chance to look at the game in a different way, and I think he's already noticed some things," Frank said. "You turn every negative into a positive, and you get better intellectually and physically when you're injured."
Drummond, 19, has been placed in a special custom brace. He will be evaluated on a regular basis, said team doctor Ben Paolucci.
He added that Drummond might also have a minor injury on the other side of his back after Thursday's MRI.
Surgery won't be required.
"Once he gets where he's a systematic and he doesn't have any pain, we'll be able to start some exercising program," Paolucci said.
Paolucci said the injury on the left side occurred last Sunday against the Lakers. He couldn't pinpoint when the second injury happened.
The 6-foot-10 center played 50 games for the Pistons, averaging 7.3 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocked shots in 19.7 minutes. He leads all rookies in rebounds and ranked second in blocked shots.

The lights at the Historic Jersey City and Harsimus Cemetery are back on, but the landmark graveyard is still facing tough financial troubles that threaten its long-term survival.
Earlier this month Eileen Markenstein, president of the cemetery's board, sent out an S.O.S. e-mail to community members and past supporters asking for donations so the cemetery could pay an overdue $1,000 bill from PSE&G after the utility company shut off the electricity. The power shut off affected lighting throughout the cemetery grounds, including the electricity at the gatekeepers' house where two U.S. military vets live full-time. The veterans serve as full-time volunteer caretakers at the facility in exchange for free housing at the gatekeepers' house.
Days after Markenstein circulated her e-mail a supporter stepped forward with a donation that covered the debt and got the lights turned back on. A grateful Markenstein said she is thankful for the donation, but acknowledged last week that the historic site continues to face many economic challenges.
Markenstein estimated the cemetery needs about $3,000 a month to meet its operating expenses.
Final resting place of many vets
Created in 1829, the Harsimus Cemetery holds historical significance largely because it was the first nondenominational cemetery in the state of New Jersey. Prior to its creation, cemeteries throughout the state were affiliated with churches and synagogues, and one had to be a member of a specific religious institution to be buried in those graveyards. Beginning in the 1800s, however, entrepreneurs increasingly opened private cemeteries that were not affiliated with religious institutions, selling grave plots for a profit. Unfortunately this business model led to an unforeseen consequence. When these cemeteries ran out of land to sell they lacked the financial resources needed for upkeep, and they were typically abandoned.
"We have no revenue coming in from either the sale of new plots or from people whose family members are buried here," Markenstein said.
Some nondenominational cemeteries in Hudson County have been completely lost, like Jersey City's Speer Cemetery and Snake Hill Cemetery in Secaucus, which was literally plowed over to make way for the New Jersey Turnpike.
"This is a problem that most non-religious cemeteries in the state may face," Bob Murgittroyd, former president of the Hudson County Historical Society, told the Reporter in 2009. "On one end of the spectrum you have the old Snake Hill Cemetery in Secaucus that's now exit 15X on the New Jersey Turnpike. It's gone. It's lost for all time. Speer has been abandoned now for almost 100 years. There's nobody to take care of it and it's in terrible shape. [Harsimus Cemetery] was recently facing the same problems that Speer has."
Once a lovely manicured space, Speer Cemetery is now overgrown with grass and weeds and is littered with trash.
In 2008, the last of Harsimus Cemetery's longtime board members died and it, too, was abandoned until a group of volunteers, including Markenstein, stepped in to clean and take care of it. These volunteers now keep the grass trimmed and the cemetery free of garbage with the help of the two military vets who live on the premises.
Known as one of the oldest garden-style, landscaped cemeteries in a nation, the Historic Jersey City and Harsimus Cemetery is also the final resting place for many veterans of the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the U.S. Civil War.
'We can't touch a dollar'
But over the last year Markenstein said the number of active volunteers has declined noticeably and monetary donations also declined during the recession.
"We lost a little momentum," Markenstein conceded. "We survive mainly on fundraising events so we can make repairs, pay the bills, and continue operating."
Insurance bills, fuel costs, and equipment upkeep are the cemetery's biggest operating expenses, Markenstein said. She estimated the cemetery needs about $3,000 a month to meet its operating expenses. "That's not a lot of money when you think about it. But when there's no income, it's tough in this economy for people to make donations."
Markenstein said that with the help of volunteers the cemetery has applied for and received grants. For example, the cemetery has been awarded a $50,000 grant from the Hudson County Open Space Trust Fund. That grant is, however, a matching grant.
"We can't touch a dollar of that grant money until we raise a matching amount," Markenstein explained.
In addition to money, the Historic Jersey City and Harsimus Cemetery needs more help from volunteers.
"Even though we have the two veterans helping us, we still need volunteers to help with fundraising, grant writing, and ground maintenance," Markenstein said. The cemetery board would also like to reset the stone walkways throughout the graveyard grounds.
Typically volunteers show up each Saturday afternoon to help trim grass, cut weeds, and reset grave stones that nature is threatening to overtake. At present, about four volunteers typically show up each Saturday. Markenstein said she'd like to see as many as 15 to 20 each week. And the cemetery board, she said, is open to accommodating the schedules of volunteers who can't visit the cemetery on Saturdays.

The Chicago Bears revamped the tight end position by signing Martellus Bennett last week and now Steve Maneri, a converted offensive tackle, is on the team's radar. The Bears are believed to have interest in Maneri, who was not tendered as an exclusive rights free agent by the Kansas City Chiefs after he appeared in 13 games and made eight starts in 2012. Maneri, 6-6, 280 pounds, would likely be a replacement for Matt Spaeth, who was released and signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Maneri was an undrafted free agent in 2010 from Temple when he signed with the Houston Texans. He also spent time with the New England Patriots and made it to the Chiefs in 2011. In Kansas City, he was converted to tight end last offseason and excelled in a role as a blocker, what the Bears had Spaeth on the roster to do. Maneri, 24, made five receptions for 51 yards last season. He has appeared in 19 games and has nine career starts.

Evolution of life insuranceBy Kim Tae-jong The nation's life insurance industry has been steadily evolving for the past six decades since its establishment here. The market size has drastically increased, thanks to domestic and global players, which are competing to meet various needs of customers. What began with only four companies in the late 1940s has grown to 23 firms with total assets reaching 373 trillion won. One of the notable aspects in such evolution is the role of global insurance firms, which is believed to contribute to diversifying the market with their advanced insurance products and services. They are also the ones that first introduced the concept of whole life insurance here and changed marketing practices. In early times, local insurance firms used to hire unskillful "ajumma," or middle-aged housewives, as their salespeople. But global ones started to change the scene by hiring and training male salespeople with college diplomas so that they can work in a more professional way. The local life insurance industry has been shifting its focus to protection-type products from the savings type, and at the change of the trend is AIA Life Korea with its ongoing campaign, themed "Rebalance Your Life." Rebalance your life AIA Life Korea CEO Daniel Costello said the insurer aims to spread the awareness of the importance of balanced insurance plans through the campaign. "There is a protection gap between what they have and what they need, and we want to fill that gap," Costello said during a recent interview with Business Focus at his office in Seoul. He emphasized that Koreans focus too much on the savings part in their life insurance, neglecting the importance of death benefits. "People have an average of 4.5 policies per person, but the fact is that when we look at their life insurance policies, mainly they are savings policies and call them life insurance policy, but they didn't have significant death benefits," he said. He noted that not only are there a few people who are insured with true death benefits but also the ones who are insured don't have nowhere near enough in terms of benefits. "The average policy size was 56 million won, and that's nowhere near enough coverage for an average individual. Of the customers with life insurance, only 37 percent had a policy with death benefits," he said. In this regard, he strongly believes that the Korean life insurance market has a huge potential for growth. But the veteran in the insurance industry with over 25-year experience simply thought that the Korean market was saturated when he first came to Korea in April last year. In fact, some foreign insurance firms seemed to scale back their operations here or some of them even left the country entirely, concluding that there is little room for the local market to grow amid the heated competition among local and global players. Major local life insurance companies such as Samsung, Daehan and Kyobo have started to set their sights on overseas markets, believing that the domestic market is close to saturation. "Originally, when I came and thought the market was very saturated, but after doing some digging, I felt like there is a huge opportunity in growth in the protection area," Costello said. "And that's why we focus on protection products and that's what a life insurer can do best and that's what we uniquely do. Banks don't give protection." Payoff AIA Life Korea's aggressive marketing along with its protection campaign, which was launched in August 2010, started to pay off, as it has successfully attracted more customers and expanded its presence here. For example, last year, the insurer achieved a 16 percent increase in the value of new business (VONB), a measure to gauge the success in business. Costello attributed the success to their focus on the quality of their business rather than quantity by strengthening its manpower, particularly sales agencies and telemarketers. "We tried to upgrade the quality of our agencies and salespeople," he said. He said salespeople should be well equipped with knowledge of products and the overall financial industry and able to understand what customers needs. "If someone comes to us and asks us for some professional advice, they will get somebody who understands products and the financial market," he said. As he emphasized the importance of salespeople and agencies, he has been touring major cities around the country for a road show to strengthen the channel of agencies since February 2012. He has travelled four cities, inviting about 75 people for each session as part of a larger goal to strengthen their agency force and develop career path development programs for agencies. "It's hard to meet a customer in person as there are over 3 million policyholders, but I do spend almost all my time meeting with our Korean sales force such as premier agencies and telemarketers. They are part of our AIA family," he said. He added that salespeople at AIA are hardworking, very determined and well educated. "Another quality that impresses me is that everybody seeks a way to maximize their personal growth and their own talent," he said. More room for growth AIA Life Korea has made impressive achievements since its launch here in 1987. But without just being satisfied with the recent success, Costello pledged to continue efforts to grow the business here. "In Korea, we still have a lot of things to do. Yes, the value of new business went up 16 percent last year, but we have a lot of work to grow our business again. There is no question about it," he said. "We want to build a very solid foundation. We've been here for 25 years, and we've been in Asia for 90 years. So this is where we are committed to." In fact, AIA Life Korea's achievements may be seen as unsatisfactory given the overall performance of AIA Group, which has units in 15 countries in the Asia-Pacific regions including Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, China, the Philippines, Australia and Indonesia. During the last fiscal year, AIA Group showed the best performance, posting 40 percent increase in VONB to $932 million, with 4.6 percentage point improvement in VONB margin to 37.2 percent. It is the fifth largest insurance company in the world by market cap. With the importance of the Korean market growing within the AIA Group, Costello said the local unit will keep pursuing growth. "Korea is the fifth biggest market within the AIA Group. So in that respect, it's critically important. We have to grow at the level similar to the rest of AIA, and if we don't, it's a drag on the overall AIA. Korea is absolutely critical in the overall result of AIA," he said. With its importance of the Korean market, the group will actively support its Korean unit, he said. "Our structure receives very active supports from our group office. If we plan to invest in Korea, capital is not a problem. We have capital here, but if we need more capital, our group office is also ready to assist. In terms of the best practice, the advantage of our group office is that they can share with us the best practices from around the entire region. While we solve certain problem or develop certain products or find some customers needs, they are very useful," he said. Future plans AIA Korea has the most diversified distribution channels including agency, bancassurance, direct marketing (in Lotte Card and Citibank partnership), home shopping and martsurance (in partnership with Tesco). It plans to continue to grow its tied agency distribution strength and improve productivity, expanding revenue from other channels. "There is a whole group of people who are underinsured for health insurance and our direct marketing business is mainly focused on health," he said. "As health costs rise, people need the type of supplementary benefits that we provide, and so that's the second strategy to grow the quality and the number of our telemarketers here in Korea." In addition to such specific measures for growth, Costello also emphasizes that insurance firms should work from a longer-term perspective. "You have to do things in fundamentally sound ways. We have to invest or to build our business to grow, and in all those cases, we try to determine what is the most fundamentally sound way to do so," he said. "Because with insurance, it can take five to 10 years for the result of the decision that you take today to really emerge. So you've got to think in a very long term perspective in the insurance industry." As an expert in life insurance, he said other players in the market have been successfully meeting various needs of customers. "I think the competitors here are doing a very good job. I think everybody is focusing more on addressing customers' need. Regardless of their income levels, they need insurance and other players have a channel to address such needs properly," he said. He also carefully predicted that the acquisition of ING Life Insurance by a local insurance firm, one of the most talked-about issues in the industry, will have a positive impact on the local market. "It depends on who buys it whether it's positive or negative for the Korean insurance market. It's hard to say, but probably it will be positive because it will allow some consolidation in the industry," he said. |

ALBANY, N.Y. - Officials have issued an emergency rule to keep certain parts from deer and elk killed by hunters in Pennsylvania out of New York state.
The New York Department of Environmental Conservation say the move was spurred by a confirmed case of chronic wasting disease in Pennsylvania deer. The disease hits deer, elk and moose.
New York's order prohibits bringing certain parts of white tail deer and American elk into the state.
The order stops the importing of deer and elk brains, eyes, spinal cords, tonsils, intestinal tracts, spleens and some lymph nodes.
Most hunters butcher deer near where they hunt. Meat that doesn't include the restricted body parts may be brought to New York.
The disease can be transmitted through feces, urine or saliva.

T. Patterson Surf Shop is calling on local artists, musicians and apparel designers to feature in summer Rolling Rack Launch Party events.
T. Patterson surf shop is getting ready to start their second annual summertime Rolling Rack Launch Party series in April and is looking for local artists, clothing designers and musicians to feature once a month through the season.
"The idea is to feature new or up-and-coming artists, designers and musicians, to give them exposure as well as to offer something new and different to our customers." said Vicki Patterson, surf shop co-owner. "We want our store to be unique—more than just the same old brands. Our community has so many gifted people and we want to lend our support to them while providing a unique shopping experience every time you visit."
Last year's Rolling Rack parties were so successful that there was no question as to whether the events would continue.
At one typical event last year, a full house was treated to a concert by the band Pepper while browsing digital photographic art by Mark Ley and being introduced to the best in local private label clothing design.
"Custom shaped Timmy Patterson surfboards are still our main draw but we like the idea of offering a more interesting shopping experience that supports other local south county artisans. When someone comes to our shop they truly are 'keeping it local,'" Patterson said.
Also returning this summer will be community Food Swap days, once a month beginning in April. If you cook, bake or grow anything good to eat, the free Food Swap is a great place to exchange your creations for those of others. From wild honey and fresh eggs to baked goods and home grown vegetables, the more participants, the bigger the variety.
"You could bring in your homemade snicker doodles and trade them for Alaskan smoked salmon. It's like old fashioned bartering. And if you're into knowing where your food comes from, this is a great way to access unprocessed, handcrafted items to broaden your culinary horizons," Patterson said. "We will be sharing more information about the Food Swaps soon on our Facebook page."
The Patterson's are in the process of booking guests for this summer's Rolling Rack events and are extending a call to the community's talented artists.
Artists, musicians and apparel designers interested in being featured at a T. Patterson launch party should contact Vicki Patterson at 949.366.2022.

Of course, when I think of this week's Crush from the standpoint of my childhood, he's forever Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu, looking calmly into the starry universe and co-steering the USS Enterprise through it on the reruns I'd watch with my mom on Saturday afternoons. In my adult life, he's the criminally underutilized character, Kaito Nakamura, on Heroes. And a helluva of a social media user and activist, boldly using the former for the latter.
The US government forcibly relocated Takei's family from their home in Los Angeles to an interment camp in Arkansas in 1942, when he was 5 years old, and then to another internment camp in northern California. After World War II ended, his family moved back to Los Angeles. In junior high school Takei was voted student body president; he was also a Boy Scout at his Buddhist temple. After the jump is an interview in which he recalls his childhood:
Takei first studied architecture when he attended college but ended up earning a bachelor's and a master's degree in theater from UCLA in 1960 and 1964, respectively. He also studied at the Shakespeare Institute in England and at Japan's Sophia University. (Source)
When Takei pursued acting in the late 50s, there were few Asian American images on the large and small screen, and the ones that were seen veered into stereotypes, from the Yellow Peril (e.g. the character of Dr. Fu Manchu) to yellowface. His first role was voiceover work for Japanese monster films. His first major co-starring role was in a Twilight Zone episode called "The Encounter" in 1964, which caused Japanese Americans to complain that, unlike the father of his character who spied for the Japanese navy during WWII, there was no evidence that Japanese Americans committed such espionage or other forms of disloyalty during the Second World War. Due to complaints of the anti-Japanese American racism about the ep was omitted from syndication. (You can watch it on Netflix–that's where I saw it–and Twilight Zone DVDs.)
In 1965, Gene Roddenberry tapped Takei to play the iconic Lt. Sulu. Takei has gracefully aged with the character, not only appearing in the first six Star Trek films but also appearing in other episodes in the Star Trek franchise and at sci-fi conventions, in cartoons and video games, and in a fan-created web series.
After Star Trek ended, Takei returned to electoral politics: he served as California's alternate delegate for the Democratic National Committee in 1972. In 1973 he barely lost his bid for Los Angeles' city council but was tapped that same year to be on the board of directors for the city's public-transit team who helped design Los Angeles' subway system.
Takei self-identifies as a gay man; he told his Star Trek castmates and hinted that the only person who had a problem with it was William Shatner. In 2005, Takei stated his gay self-identity in a more public forum: in a interview with Frontiers, a magazine aimed at California's queer communities, he revealed that and that he and his partner, Brad Altman, have been in a committed relationship for nearly two decades. And he has done some amazing lead-by-example social activism, from doing PSAs calling out ex-NBA player Tim Hardaway, Arkansas school district vice president Clint McCance, and the Tennessee state legislature on their homophobia and doing "Equality Trek," a 2006 speaking tour on his experiences as a gay Japanese-American man, to serving as the Human Rights Campaign's "Coming Out Project" spokesperson. (Source) Takei and Altman married in 2008–with Nichelle Nichols as the matron of honor–two months before Proposition 8 declared cisgay marriages unconstitutional. (Takei's and Altman's marriage stayed legal according to the initial ruling.) This is what he said about the ruling's passage in a 2008 Time interview:
Obviously this is a setback for supporters of gay marriage. Was it a fight you expected to win?
I knew the way Proposition 8 was going. Our side was losing. The thing that gave me hope was that Proposition 8 got only 52% of the vote. I say only because eight years ago, there was another initiative to ban marriage equality and that got 61%. So the percentage is coming down. We know that we have a long road ahead, but we are making progress. It was stirring to see President-elect Obama speak on Tuesday. I was involved in the Civil Rights movement in the 1950s and 60s, and I'm certainly mindful of the whole history of the African American struggle for equality. Civil rights was never an easy thing to do, and it didn't happen overnight or even in one generation. I know that this is going to happen in our generation, though. It happened for Brad [Altman, Takei's husband] and me. We are married, and we are confident in the validity of our marriage.
It's interesting that you mention Obama, because while he did not support Proposition 8, he is also not in favor of full marriage equality.
But he is for equal protection under the law. You don't amend the constitution of any state by threatening the very core of that constitution: equal protection under the law. Proposition 8 is an attack on our constitution and our judiciary. It's not an amendment; it's a revision. It's about taking a core value of the constitution out. It's like taking freedom of speech away from redheads.
So you're hopeful about witnessing real improvements during his presidency?
People will change. Their thinking will change. When you look at the results of this election on Prop 8, the people that supported it were older people. Those under 30 were overwhelmingly for defeating it. There's hope.
Takei's hope became reality: wiser legal heads prevailed in California and overturned the initiative. And Takei himself been given praise for his social-justice work: he received accolades for his public handling of homophobia and given the LGBT Humanist Award in 2012 by the American Humanist Association.
Then, Takei took to social media in 2011–and has been tweeting and Facebooking with his fans ever since. According to a 2012 Forbes interview, Takei started on Twitter but just couldn't interact with his 425,000 (and counting) followers the way he liked, so he started a Facebook page. His page has more fans than early social media adapter Wil Wheaton and William Shatner's combined–about 2.5 million, 84,000, and 161,000 respectively. (And Takei's on Pinterest!)
What was your approach on Facebook to start engaging with your fans?
I have had a lifelong engagement with Star Trek fans as well as a more recent engagement with fans who know me from my guest announcer gig on Howard Stern on Sirius XM. So I naturally began with that, which produced a curious combination of geek/nerd humor and somewhat raunchy and irreverent banter. It was rather like The Sci-Fi Channel meets Comedy Central.
I also had a vibrant following among LGBT fans who have come to embrace my message of combatting idiocy with humor. It's really hard to hate someone for being different when you're too busy laughing together. So my early fans were also comprised of equality-minded activists ready to do battle against the "douchebags" and bullies of the world.
You've been a vocal supporter of gay rights and other human rights issues. Do you find that having a strong social media presence has helped you advocate for those causes?
My social media presence has been a game-changer in this regard. I used to rely exclusively on TV and radio, and, to a smaller extent, print, to champion my favorite causes. I was entirely dependent on whether the news media wanted to pick up a story. But now with YouTube and my blog ("That Blog Is So Takei"), I get to decide when a message or cause matters. The content not only can be shared and reshared, but those who missed the first wave can go back and see it later. With crowd-funding sites we can agglomerate supporters, show a relevant video, and compound the effect of our ask. None of this was possible even a few years ago.
And he used the crowdfunding site IndieGoGo to help produce his musical, Allegiance, about the US's Japanese internment camps.
You're currently working on a musical 'Allegiance' – which tells the story of the Japanese American internment camps. What prompted you to tell this story, and how did it feel to revisit that part of your life?
I've dedicated the better part of my life to ensuring that this dark chapter of our national history is not only told but understood, so that we never forget and never repeat this grave injustice. I am a founding member and chairman emeritus of the Japanese American National Museum in downtown Los Angeles whose mission is in large measure to continue this effort.
Allegiance is a personal journey of mine for certain, and I view it as the culmination of my work not only as an activist but an actor. It is a beautiful, haunting story, with glorious music and an unparalleled cast including Tony winner Lea Salonga, the original Miss Saigon. It will take the theater world by storm when we open this fall at The Old Globe in San Diego, and then transfer in 2013 to the great American stage on Broadway.
The Twilight Zone controversy notwithstanding, Takei's advocated for the US government to rights its wrongs against Japanese Americans and for bridge-building between the two nations. Among other things, he asked his fans to call their senators to not vote for a bill that echoed the executive order that interred Japanese Americans and co-founded the Japanese American National Museum.The Japanese government bestowed the Order of the Rising Sun, Golden Rays with Rosette for his activism.

Oh yes…and he–like his fellow Racialicious Crush Of The Week Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson–has an asteroid named after him.
From the earth to the heavens, from history to the future and back again–I couldn't think of a cooler person to co-steer us through, calmly and boldly.

It's a Smooth Thing
Beverage makers lighten up on the caloric toll of our favorite summer drinks. We haven't thought about Bridget Jones for awhile, but the new crop of calorie-conscious, nutrient-rich smoothies this summer reminded us of her amusing discovery that too much of a "smooth thing" can cause a diet infraction of the highest order:
"Monday 23 October 128 lbs, alcohol units 0 (v.g. Have discovered delicious new alcohol substitute drink called smoothies-v. nice, fruity), Cigarettes 0 (smoothies removes need for cigarettes), smoothies 32, calories 4265 (4135 of them smoothies)
Perhaps taking a cue from Bridget's unfortunate findings, beverage makers have noted consumers' preoccupation with overall well-being in addition to diet and are marketing leaner smoothie alternatives with nourishing properties that wont put a damper on the best healthy intentions this summer. The "smart snacking" trend is becoming more prevalent across the snack food category as companies vie for market share with products that give consumers more bang for their buck.
From Left to Right:
- Starbucks new Vivanno Nourishing Blends has protein, fiber, two flavors and only 270 calories
- Naked Juice new Bare Breeze Smoothies have 100 percent juice, no added sugar or preservatives and weigh in at only 260 calories.
- Pinkberry Smoothies have fresh fruit and their signature, lo-cal frozen yogurt at only 70 calories per ½ cup.
- Jamba Juice's new 3G Engergizer (part of their Jamba Functionals line) has natural caffeine and tons of vitamins with only 310 calories.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — The Denver Broncos are reporting to training camp knowing they'll be counted on to help a community in mourning heal from the movie theater shooting in suburban Denver last week.
Coach John Fox said the Broncos are embracing the role, one he's familiar with from his time with the New York Giants during the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Several Broncos visited hospitalized victims of Friday's shooting that left 12 dead and dozens injured at the midnight premiere of "The Dark Knight Rises" in nearby Aurora.
Cornerback Tracy Porter used his last day of vacation on Tuesday to visit some of the shooting victims on his own, and he said he was amazed by their resiliency.
The Broncos gathered for meetings Wednesday. Their first practice is Thursday morning.

Bucs D-Line Looking For A Repeat Performance Against RG3

Tampa Bay's defense will have their hands full with the NFL's highest scoring offense, but the Bucs feel Washington needs to worry about the Buccaneer D-Line just as much. Getting to Robert Griffin III will be top priority for a defensive line that produced four sacks and two forced fumbles against Dallas last week.
This Sunday the Bucs defense will face their toughest challenge so far this season – stopping a rookie QB that runs, passes and leads an offense at the top of the league in scoring.
With all of the success the Washington offense has of pointing points on the scoreboard, the Redskins have struggled winning games, and match the Bucs' record of 1-2. The Bucs have the opposite problem; the defense can stop teams from scoring, but the offense can't seem to find any rhythm when it comes to putting the ball in the end zone.
Last week, the Tampa Bay front four did their job getting to Dallas QB Tony Romo, sacking him four times and forcing two fumbles. The Bucs are hoping to have a repeat performance against a Washington offensive line that allowed six sacks last week against Cincinnati.
"They're making it an emphasis to hit me and get me on the ground," Griffin said, "but I think that's every team's goal every week when it comes to quarterbacks so from that aspect, no I don't see any difference. Of course teams are going to try to, and not in a bad way when I say this, but try to come after me as a quarterback that can move around a little bit."
With a skillset that is as natural and versatile as Griffin's, containing last year's Heisman Trophy winner is high on the list of any opponent, but Michael Bennett, tied with Gerald McCoy for the team lead in sacks with three a piece, feels that the Redskins need to worry about the Bucs' defense just as much.
"Robert Griffin, he does what he does," Bennett said, "and we're going to have to do what we do. We're not shying away from their offense, but they're going to be aware of our defense. We have a great defense, so just like we're game planning for them, they should be game planning for us too."
Griffin says that he has noticed teams making adjustments for him, but he views the way he plays his position as fluid without leaning on running the ball as his first option.
"It's just, each play represents something different." Griffin said. "I think a team can go into a game with a mindset of trying to contain the QB, and any time you have a guy that can move a little bit – whether it's myself, Tony Romo, Aaron Rodgers or whoever it may be – that is the goal so I realize that going in but I try to treat each play as its own and not necessarily focus on getting outside of the pocket all the time."
In the pocket, Griffin has done very well so far this season. Griffin has completed 60-of-89 passes (67.4 percent) for 747 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. Griffin's QB rating of 103.5 is sixth-best in the NFL. The Redskins also boast the No. 1 scoring offense in the league, averaging 33 points per game. Griffin knows Washington's offense has to do more, and the rookie is willing to do whatever it takes to help his team win.
"Yeah, we're proud of that as a team, but we know we can do better." Griffin said. "The thing is, we are leading the league in scoring, we feel like there's so many little things we can do to be so much better. And of course that would help us put up more points, so we're proud about that, but we're not satisfied. I know when you're No. 1 there's no higher you can go, but we can get a lot better as an offense and as a team scoring points and winning games.
"You find the quarterback that you believe in, and then you manage and mold the system to where it helps him be successful, helps the team be successful. As a team, we're scoring 30, 40 points a game we're being pretty successful when it comes to scoring points we just have to be more successful when it comes to winning games.
"For me, whatever they ask me to do, I'm going to go out and do it, because that's the type of person I am so whether it's run the ball, throw the ball, kick the ball, punt the ball, whatever it is, I'm going to go out there and run through a wall for this team, because that's just the kind of person I am, that's the way I was brought up."
Just as he did at Baylor, Griffin shows a lot of maturity as a leader and for a first-year NFL player has handled the responsibility that comes from being the second overall draft pick and instant starting quarterback well.
"You just trust your preparation." Griffin said. "Over the offseason and over your whole career as a football player you build your foundation, so you know who you are, what you are, what you can do, and what you're going to strive to always do and never say you can't do something. It's just about having that strong foundation. We have two straight losses and things aren't always going our way you still have that foundation and you know, 'hey, I'm doing the right things, the team is doing the right things, we're going to be successful and the wins will come.' You just stay at it and that helps me a lot.
"I know it's not just me, I don't have to go out there and take on all of the burden myself, but I do know that I am the catalyst for this offense and I have to show up every game and be ready to play because those guys are looking to me for leadership."
Griffin will have to be ready for a confident Bucs defensive line that will be without last year's sack leader, Adrian Clayborn, who was placed on IR after suffering a knee injury against the Cowboys.
Bennett and McCoy know that even more pressure is on the two of them with Clayborn out. Daniel Te'o-Nesheim will replace Clayborn at right end and filled in sufficiently when Clayborn went down last week. Te'o-Nesheim knows he will face a big challenge going against Griffin in his first start.
"He's super athletic." Te'o-Nesheim said. "You just have to contain him and just get after him."
Getting after Griffin wasn't as easy for Washington's first two opponents as it was for the Bengals, but if Griffin can turn the throttle, so can the Bucs D-Line and that's exactly what Tampa Bay plans to do.
"If I get a chance to hit him, of course I'm going to hit him." Bennett said. "I'm not going to try and hurt him, [I'm] just going to play the game inside the rules."

i don't see the comparisons between Vick and RG3 other than they are both Black and mobile so I guess thats enough to compare the two. Rg3 is a much more refined passer and doesn't pout and hang his head like Vick does when things are tough, I used to love how Arthur Blank would console Vick on the sidelines and put his arm around him like you would do a 7 yr old during a game my son is in pop warner and if my son had Vick's attitude i would kick his butt

Now that's funny Buc4life79. Now, if those replacement refs all looked like that no one would be clamoring for the "real refs". Ohhhhh, throw the flag Honey so I can watch you pick it up! I love it when she has to pick up that flag. As for RG3; he reminds me of Michael Vick; but with a brain and much less of that "hood" attitude that # 7 had in his "BP" (before prison) years. It's all too apparent to me that RG3 is a pretty boy QB who doesn't like to be hit and doesn't think he should be hit. So here's the plan from the good old days of DBrooks. Hit that RG3 in the belly like #55 used to do to Mike Vick every time we get a chance. Make an RG3 sandwich like our young defense did with Romo. Maybe our DB's can get Rah juiced up at the Blue Martini Saturday night and get him to divulge the defensive game plan. That is if he actually has one.

I hate RG III. I don't know why; I just do. I have a good feeling the Bucs are going to win this game and Freeman will be a big part of why we win.

I say the way to go is what the Falcons are doing - put your best players on the field and if that means playing with 2 LBs (as it does for ATL) or playing with 3 DLs (as it should for the BUCS) then that's what you do - adjust to your circumstances. Let's see Watson/Hayward/Biggers some more and don't force the team to play 4 DLs just because that's supposed to our system. Put the best players on the field an adjust.

Great post horse! I'm not worried about this game, I think this is the game when all 3 phases get in a rhythm. We just can't let up and get conservative with the lead

All I ask is that this team remember the beat down they got in pre season with the Redskins and they showed no mercy. We should do the same to them and we should beat the snot out of them for all of the 60 minutes. Go Bucs!

Water-saving faucet adapters, green pet gear and more
November 4, 2009 | 2
From the moment that we switch our radiators on half of the heat given off by them is lost as it goes into the wall behind them. We can, however, get around this problem with an invention from a then schoolboy that got onto the Tommorows World program decades ago. He had learned from School that heat is given off by way of conduction, convection, and radiation, so when his Grandmother had problems meeting her heating bills the schoolboy reasoned that heat loss due to conduction and convection could be stopped by putting a lining of cardboard covered with silver cooking foil behind his Grandmothers radiators. Heat loss through the wall is now slashed by nearly 50%, and rooms heat up faster when the heating comes on. The Fire Brigade said at the time that the cardboard was not a fire hazard as behind the radiator is the least damaged part of a room in the event of a fire. And this saving cuts the CO2 emissions of your house.
The UK has 107 main power stations that produce 30% of CO2 production, that is, one power station produces 0.28 % of our CO2 emissions. 26% of our energy is used in space heating so we can guess that the equivalent of 27.82 power stations are used for space heating. If we can cut our space heating needs by nearly half with this simple invention we can reduce the number of power stations that we need by 13.91, and thus cut the total UK CO2 emissions by 3.9%. And we do not need as many new power stations as we did. How about it?
Another great green idea is to get rid of paper(printing, handling, storing, retrieving and disposal) by figuring out ways of using eDocuments instead. If you have a home accounting system, you can email invoices and do electronic banking (called Banking Automation) to eliminate paper checks and bills. If you own a business, you can use one of the many well-developed Document Automation software packages to convert most of your business/office paperwork to electronic documents.
The one I'm most familiar with is iDocs by inFORM Decisions (Rancho Santa Margarita, CA) for the office. It runs on all IBM midrange computers. A typical Document Automation solution will support scanning and creating eDocuments, emailing and faxing them to other parts of the organization or customers/suppliers, archiving and retrieving eDocs and the design of graphic forms for accepting data in prescribed formats.
Eventually, the world, including most businesses and families, will be paperless and we will all wonder how we ever put up with all those primitive paper documents!

Fall is on It's Way
With summer almost behind us, I was really not looking forward to the rain and cold days that the NW has to offer. Summer being one of my favorite seasons it's hard to say goodbye to those hot and sunny days that I love so much. Needless to say, I was dreading the upcoming season. However, early last week we received an e-mail from our designer Judy with some of our new Fall products. One of them that I fell in love with was the Fall's Finest Bouquet. The leaves in the arrangement made me think of Fall colors and how beautiful it will be driving down the road and having orange, yellow and red trees on both sides. After seeing some of our fall products and getting more into the spirit of it, I now think I am ready for fall. and After all, orange is my absolute favorite color.

...he´s made a "credible case"? ......the man lies over and over again, fighting straw men and refusing to govern. It´s all politics and we are in harms way without a leader...
Am I the only one see that nothing is going to happen on Mar 1? They are just going to postpone budget cuts again, just like they did before. They will kick the can down the road one more time and Obama will claim to have saved the country from those terrible Republicans.
Is Fournier writing from an alternate universe? obama compromised?
Obama couldn´t govern his way out of a paper bag. He´s a hack politician who could care less.
Balderdash! Fournier is a hack´s hack. Exactly what spending "cuts" has Obama proposed? if the sequester was such a horrendous idea, why did his highness propose it and why did he sign it into law, instead of wielding his veto?Fantasy land.
There were 20 legislators who voted for what was called the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, known to US as TARP in 2008, that lost their jobs in the midterms of 2010. We know now what a success that idea was in throwing money down a black hole with not real results for the American people. 0bama is still touting the same "shovel-ready jobs," because in his mind, we are a third-world nation with no education to do better with our time. Sounds pretty racist to me.Can´t wait to see how the numbers show up in the unemployment figures.
Sure Ron...when did he compromise while he was in Hawaii or when he was swinging with Tiger and Reggie... makes you wonder what bizarro world journalist live in
I still haven´t figured out how a 1% cut in Federal spending is going to stop our volunteer fire department from responding.
Bronco Bama does not govern, he only campaigns. If he ever did settle down o the business of seriously exercising his power to govern as President, he would be held accountable, and that, he cannot afford at any price.Believe it or not, his performance on the night the four Americans were captured and later killed at Benghazi was probably the closest he ever came to making a decision, which he dropped in the laps of the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State, both of whom dropped the hot potato.
No federal budget in 4 years and it´s the Republican House´s fault? Ha!
Still waiting for the low-information types to see the light.
Liar Hussein is never ´right´.

I bought this for my husband as he not only needed a waterproof jacket/coat but also wanted a fleece too. Both are excellent quality, and at a great price. He says the fleece is warm but typically with the English weather, he's not used the waterproof coat - yet. I bought him a 3xl size as he is a large man - 6ft 3" with 50" chest and he is very happy with this, lots of room, although, in my opinion a 2xl would've done the job. The length is good too. I am very happy with the fact that there is a company who can supply larger sizes without reduced quality. I shall definitely shop with you again.
23/10/2013 12:13:16
This jacket has a specification that couldn't be better if I'd written it myself: breathable fabric, zipped-in fleece, breast pocket under flap but not inside main zip (a safe, waterproof place, easily accessible, to keep wallet, compass, train/bus tickets etc), a cheerful red colour (don't you hate it that women have all the fun bright waterprood jacket colours and men's are mostly dull?), hood stows away under collar, strong front zip pulls up from bottom as well as top (more comfortable sitting down) . . . phew!
18/09/2012 17:06:15
I am a lady, mid 60s, but wanted a warm, navy, waterproof jacket, many lovely colours in the ladies section but none I wanted. Will be using my jacket for every day, also birdwatching expeditions. Decided to try on a man's jacket and was delighted with the length and overall fit. As a size 14 I tried the M and it was too big, sleeves too long. The S was perfect and I was even happier that it was an S!! Bring on the chilly winter as I am looking forward to wearing the jacket.
02/07/2013 13:30:17
I am tall and feel that the jacket would suit better if it was another 4" longer , which would bring it that little bit longer over the bottom. Needed waterproof and found the liner very practical , as I live in the Highlands of Scotland , very helpful with layering . I bought the mens jacket for this reason but it was much the same length ... so opted for colour . Pleased with the purchase overall..
23/09/2013 14:56:48
Purchased for my husband who is a photographer and needs a jacket he can use all through the year. Benefits are side zip pockets plus a Velcro strap so when carrying lens covers etc you know nothing will fall out as his last jacket I bought did. Secondly he loves the idea of the light fleece, to wear on warmer days. A great asset. Product is well made and the price was excellent.
12/07/2012 10:35:54
During the first wearing whilst walking the dog, there was a massive rainstorm and the jacket did not leak one bit.It felt very warm with the fleece added and pretty cool without the fleece.It feels like it has been made to a reasonable quality just check the securing tags for the fleece to the jacket;some of the stitching is a bit below standard on some jackets.
13/10/2012 09:12:46
I was looking for a coat that would be suitable for wet weather and also warm enough for winter wear. This jacket was just what I wanted being both waterproof and having a inner fllece which can be removed in warmer weather. The coat is ideal both for all-day walking and for about town.
12/09/2013 11:24:30
this jacket has been purchased for a trip next year to see the northen lights and looks like it will be just the thing my husband needs warm & waterproof with plenty room to get sweaters etc underneath. we had looked in various shops and had difficulty getting a large size.
14/11/2013 00:00:02
Wanted something that was brighter than the usual dark colours. Something to make a cold dark day seem a little more brighter. The colour I chose does this. I enjoy wearing it, it feels very warm and comfortable and the quality of the material and style is excellent.
07/10/2013 10:30:32
Excellent garment both parts of the jacket are excellent either as individual items or as a combined jacket very warm and well fitting other reviews claimed it was on the large size although I did not find this to be the case
30/10/2012 13:14:55
Very pleased with jacket, very warm and comfy. Usual problem with a lined jacket that the lining sleeves come out when you take the jacket off. This is a substantial jacket and not lightweight but I would recommend it
27/03/2013 14:38:39
looked in a number of different stores to try to find a good waterproof jacket with a detachable lining and found nothing until this product in your Banbury store, very pleased just what I was looking for.
19/07/2012 22:27:01
The product is good value for the money. The jacket itself has 2 front pockets (zipped) and 1 inside pocket (zipped). The fleece which it comes with has 2 inside pockets and 2 front pockets (zipped).
23/07/2012 12:41:18
All the features one could wish for: plenty of pockets, some hidden away, some inside, some outside; detachable fleece for extra comfort and warmth in the winter; lightweight and good range of colours.
25/08/2012 14:20:18
the price was excellent for a jacket that is easily adaptable for our changeable 'summer'! weather we've been having. I will find out how it fares in the cold weather no doubt sooner than we wish.
05/08/2012 09:46:04
Although female I always go for the men's jackets as they given more movement / room for whatever use I put the jacket to, i.e. everyday, shopping, walking and especially keeping dry.
08/07/2013 08:20:09
I had it in mind that my current waterproof coat was starting to look shabby so this will be an excellent replacement. A similar purchase on waterproof trousers is next on the list.
08/10/2012 18:50:41
It's warm but not to heavy as often a 3 in 1 coat is. Haven't worn it for any length of time yet but sure it will get me through the winter with warmth and comfort in mind.
22/06/2012 15:10:38
My only concern is the main zip has opened at the bottom once with the fastener at the top. It's easy to pull the zip up without the bottom being lined up.
13/10/2012 10:06:55
Perfect jacket for this country with the removable fleece. Ideal for my husband who needs to be kept warm and dry particularly in the winter months.

Eddie Murphy Says He's Gotten Over His Grudge Against 'Saturday Night Live'
When Ben Stiller hosted "Saturday Night Live" a few weeks ago, it was rumored that his appearance might be complemented with a surprise cameo from his "Tower Heist" co-star, Eddie Murphy. It might seem like a safe guess for TV pundits to make: After all, Murphy (like Stiller) is an "SNL" alumnus. But Murphy hadn't darkened the door of Studio 8H in years — reportedly due to a Weekend Update joke from David Spade. However, in a new interview timed to the release of "Tower Heist," Murphy comments on that rumored grudge — and asserts that he's over it.

Star Telegram is pleased to be able to offer its users the opportunity to make comments and hold conversations online. However, the interactive nature of the internet makes it impracticable for our staff to monitor each and every posting.
Since Mom2MomDFW.com does not control user submitted statements, we cannot promise that readers will not occasionally find offensive or inaccurate comments posted on our website. In addition, we remind anyone interested in making an online comment that responsibility for statements posted lies with the person submitting the comment, not Star Telegram.
If you find a comment offensive, clicking on the exclamation icon will flag the comment for review by the administrators, we are counting on the good judgment of all our readers to help us.
