Inflation (Encyclopedia of Business)
Inflation is commonly understood as an increase in the price level. Formally, it is defined as the rate of change in the price level. Thus, an inflation rate of 5 percent per annum means that the price level is increasing at the rate of 5 percent. Inflation, however, need not always be positive. It could be a negative number, in which case the price level would be declining. Of course, a negative inflation rate, termed deflation, is very uncommon. Most economies face positive rates of inflation year after year.
If the inflation rate is positive and an individual's income remains constant, his or her real standard of living will fall as the individual's income will be worth less and less in successive periods. Let us assume that a household earns $50,000 per year and the income remains fixed at this level in the future. If the inflation rate persists at 10 percent per year, the purchasing power of the household income will also keep declining at the rate of 10 percent per year. At the end of the five-year period, prices will be one and a half times greater. This will lead to the household being able to buy only two-thirds of the goods and services it was able to buy at the beginning of the period.
The inflation rate is derived by calculating the rate of change in a price index. A price index, in turn, measures the level of prices of goods and services at any point of time. The number of items included in a price index vary depending on the objective of the index. Usually three kinds of price indexes are periodically reported by government sources. They all have their particular advantages and uses. The first index is called the consumer price index (CPI), which measures the average retail prices paid by consumers for goods and services bought by them. Several thousand items are included in this index. The second price index used to measure the inflation rate is called the producer price index. It is a much broader measure than the CPI because it measures the wholesale prices of approximately 3,000 items. The items included in this index are those that are typically used by producers (manufacturers and businesses) and thus contain many raw materials and semifinished goods. The third measure of inflation is the called the implicit price deflator. This index measures the prices of all goods and services included in the calculation of the current output of goods and services in the economy, known as gross domestic product. It is the broadest measure of the price level.
The three measures of the inflation rate are most likely to move in the same direction, even though not to the same extent. Differences can arise due to the differing number of goods and services included for the purpose of compiling the three indexes. In general, if one hears about the inflation rate number in the popular media, it is most likely to be the one based on the CPI.

This drill is smaller than expected but still has a big punch. It is light and easy to hold, even for small hands. The Lithium Ion battery is interchangeable with most other Craftsman 19.2 V systems which is what made this drill most attractive for me!

I wish they would sell replacement screw driver bits which fit into the clip on the drill. It is very handy to have the bit right on the drill, but when it no longer has a good tip on it, it is only frustrating!

These new Li-ion drills are so much better than the old Ni-Cd drills. This is actually fully charged when you need it. You don't have to wait a few hours to charge up a dead Ni-Cd battery. Well worth the cost!

Well i was looking for a drill i went to other stores and ask salesman what he had on sale. He showed me the drill i bought because it was on sale and i got $10 off the price with points. The salesman told me to make sure you come back to use your $10 in points on next purchase.I told salesman i have a lot of Craftsman drills but none of my batteries work any more. He told me that the lithium-ion battery will last longer. He also told me i could buy the battery that fit your drills and the charger i have if i wanted. I told him i might come back and get a battery for my old drills but i prefer a new drill.I told salesman this drill is the best price on a drill i have found so far. So i told him i guess i am going to buy the drill and hope battery last at least a year or better.I hope this battery last for a long time so i get some time to use it before i have to buy another one.

I purchased this drill as a gift for my husband. We have been Craftsman users for a long time. The batteries on our old Craftsman 19.2 Drills were getting to where they would not hold a charge any longer. Instead of replacing the batteries I decided to upgrade to this drill with the Lithium-Ion Battery. My husband is happy with the slightly more compact battery.

The BRICS just became impossible to ignore. At the close of the Fifth annual BRICS Summit in Durban, South Africa last week, there was little question that this group of five fast-growing economies was underwriting an overhaul of the global economic and political order.
The eThekwini Declaration issued at summit's end was couched in non-confrontational language, but it was manifestly clear that western hegemony and unipolarity were being targeted at this meeting.
The BRICS hit some major western sore spots by announcing the formation of a $50 billion jointly-funded development bank to rival the IMF and World Bank. Deals were signed to increase inter-BRICS trade in their own currencies, further eroding the US dollar's status as the world's reserve currency.
A series of unmistakable challenges were dealt to old world leaders: reform your institutions and economies – or we'll do it ourselves. (more…)

There were elections happening around the world today, and in Tanzania both victorious and opposing sides took to the streets to celebrate making it through the process without violence. Regardless of how you feel about the election day returns here in the States, the idea that we can vote and express our feelings without persecution is something to be thankful for.
Kim Ludbrook / EPA
Thousands of supporters from both the ruling and victorious CCM party and opposition CUF party celebrate together in the main square in downtown Stone Town after peaceful Tanzania presidential elections on the semi-autonomous island of Zanzibar, Tanzania, on Nov. 2. Zanzibar remained peaceful today, considered a victory after violence marred the 2005 polls.

This book takes an inventory of the art of collaborative practice, surveys the landscape of new, cooperation-enhancing technologies, and renders the inner workings of cooperative processes as a new model for social movements. Civic participation is on the decline, but, online, more people work together than ever before. Activists contribute citizen journalism. New media artists create social online tools and urge others to participate. Knowledge collectives gather information in large, open repositories. Free culture with all its file-sharing applications is blossoming. Contributors Howard Rheingold, Christoph Spehr, Brian Holmes, Geert Lovink and Trebor Scholz link the debates about web-based, cooperation-enhancing technologies to the broader world of political activism.
This book and its accompanying DVD emerge out of intensive debates at the Free Cooperation conference in 2004 at the State University of New York at Buffalo facilitated by Scholz and Lovink.
" 'Thank you for your cooperation' is what we are usually told after being coerced into doing something. 'Free' is a word that usually starts abject phrases like 'free markets' or 'free sample.' Yet in coupling these two troubled words together, Lovink and Scholz open up a whole new terrain for reality hacking. Under this banner they have assembled a top mob who make their own rules and show you how to live by your own rules too. Essential reading for all the artists of making the impossible possible." McKenzie Wark, author of A Hacker Manifesto and Gamer Theory

Sri Lanka successfully concludes participation in the 10th session of the UN Human Rights Council |
Friday, 27 March 2009 | |
The Sri Lankan delegation led by Hon. Mahinda Samarasinghe, Minister of Disaster Management and Human Rights successfully participated in the tenth session of the UN Human Rights Council which concluded its 4-week long session today, 27 March 2009, in Geneva. The Sri Lankan delegation's proactive engagement with all stakeholders ensured that heavy pro-LTTE lobbying as well as a two-pronged attempt by a few EU members to secure a statement in the Council on the situation in Sri Lanka by the High Commissioner for Human Rights or the Council's President, proved abortive. During the sessions, the Sri Lankan delegation successfully countered adverse references made to the Sri Lanka situation made by a few delegations representing certain developed Western countries and several non-governmental organizations, as well as by several pro-LTTE activists who were present at the UN, lobbying heavily against ongoing military operations in the Wanni. During both formal presentations and informal interactions, the Sri Lankan delegation clearly emphasized to other delegations that ongoing military operations were being carried out by the security forces in accordance with norms of International Human Rights and Humanitarian Law, and that such actions were necessary to eliminate terrorism and protect the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Sri Lanka. Meeting with the African Group H.E. Dr Dayan Jayatilleka with the President of UN General Assembly, Miguel D'Escoto Brockmann Breakfast Meeting The delegation that accompanied Hon. Minister during the High Level Segment of the Council comprised of H.E Dr. Dayan Jayatilleka, Ambassador/Permanent Representative of Sri Lanka to the UN in Geneva, Hon. Mohan Peiris, P.C., Attorney-General, Prof. Rajiva Wijesinha, Secretary to the Ministry of Disaster Management and Human Rights, and Dr. Rohan Perera, P.C. Deputy Solicitor-General Mr. Yasantha Kodagoda subsequently replaced the Attorney-General. Hon. Mahinda Samarasinghe addressed the High Level Segment on the opening day of the Council on March 2 and conducted a series of bilateral, regional and cross regional consultations at Ministerial level. In addition, the Mission provided other Ambassadors several opportunities to engage with the delegation in frank and open discussions, through a number of events including a working breakfast, a lunch and a dinner at which a cross section of ambassadors covering all Regional Groups of the Council were briefed on the current situation in Sri Lanka. . Separate meetings were also organized for Hon. Mahinda Samarasinghe and his delegation to brief the Asian, African, Latin American and Eastern European Groups of the Council and major cross-regional groups such as the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC). Hon. Mahinda Samarasinghe and his delegation also held bilateral consultations with the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Ms. Navanethem Pillay, President of the Human Rights Council H.E Martin Ihoeghian Uhomoibi, Minister for Legal and Parliamentary Councils of Egypt H.E Dr. Mufid Shehab, State Secretary for Foreign Affairs and Human Rights of France H.E Mrs. Rama Yade, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran H.E Manouchehr Mottaki, Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs, H.E Dr. Per Stig Moller, the UN High-Commissioner for Refugees Mr. Antonio Guterres, the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation H.E. Mr. Alexander V. Yakovenko, Germany's Federal Commissioner for Human Rights and Humanitarian Aid, Mr. Gunter Nooke, the Vice- Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Republic of Korea Hon. Mr. Shin Kak-Soo, the Permanent Under Secretary of foreign Affairs of Sweden Hon. Mr. Frank Belfrage, the Minister for the UN and Human Rights of the United Kingdom Hon. Lord Mark Malloch Brown, the Foreign Minister of South Africa, Hon. Dr. Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma, the Ambassador of China H.E. Mr. Li Baodong, and the Canadian Ambassador H.E. Marius Grinius. The Hon. Minister and the Sri Lankan delegation also briefed Members on the humanitarian situation in Sri Lanka and presented the Common Humanitarian Action Plan on Sri Lanka, during a Member States Briefing organized by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in Geneva, and attended by a large number of States, UN agencies, humanitarian organizations and INGOs. During the Council Sessions, Prof. Rajiva Wijesinha, Secretary to the Ministry of Disaster Management and Human Rights, successfully refuted many false and unsubstantiated allegations on Sri Lanka's human rights and humanitarian situation, conveying Sri Lanka's position through a number of statements, including rights of reply as appropriate, during the consideration of several agenda items, including the item that deals with human rights situations that require Council's attention. He also addressed the Council during the interactive dialogues with the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Special Rapporteurs on counter terrorism, torture, freedom of religion and belief, human rights defenders, Working Group on Disappearances, Special Representative of the UNSG on IDPs, and the Special Advisor on the prevention of genocide. Further exercising Sri Lanka's right of reply under the agenda items dealing with human rights situations that require Council's attention and with building and technical cooperation, Deputy Solicitor General Yasantha Kodagoda made several statements refuting many fabricated allegations on the current situation in Sri Lanka. Ambassador Dr. Dayan Jayatilleka, made a statement to the Council in his capacity as the Chairperson/Rapporteur of the Inter-Governmental Working Group on Effective Implementation of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action against Racism, Racial discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, when the Working Group's report was taken up for discussion at the Council. The Sri Lankan delegation also co-sponsored a number of Human Rights Council resolutions on a wide variety of issues. |

Both the -- to the Michigan has approved measures prohibiting private unions from requiring that nonunion employees.
Pay fees and this happened just hours after these bills were introduced the senate then quickly followed by -- to impose the same requirements -- most public unions.
And because there are rules require a five day delay between votes in the two chambers.
Final -- -- not take place until Tuesday.
And Republican governor Rick Snyder.
Who said repeatedly that right to work was not on his agenda said he would sign the measures and probably pretty quickly Steve cook as president.
Of the Michigan education association's -- thanks for coming on tonight what does all this mean for workers in Michigan.
Well it it means nothing -- I mean this is a and attack and organized labor to attack kind of collective bargaining of -- of particular to class and attack.
The workers in the middle class.
In Michigan.
You know it it's important to note that -- organized labor myself included with through three under individuals.
With the UAW -- rebel in the AFP Michigan have been -- discussing this issue with the governor for about ten days.
-- we've been discussing with the governor we've been discussing -- with the speaker and the majority leader in the senate.
We thought we were headed in a very good place.
-- we were.
More or less -- led to believe that.
The governor when he said he did not want this on his desk.
That the debt trajectory where we were headed and we were absolutely blind sided.
Thursday morning when the governor got behind a microphone and say you know what.
I'm an assignment we're gonna run it.
We -- that governor blatantly lied to you.
Well I the governor I think did.
You know I can't blame his staff Ford because I think his staff -- -- by the zionists what with -- disease as they could possibly -- But yet we were blind sided and it's interesting that there should take place all around Pearl Harbor day because we'll tell you what.
We've been dealing with these three groups try to prevent this war.
We thought we had a partner in that effort in the governor's office.
And it turns out that they had been preparing for instead of peace no war all along and they pretty much dropped -- Thursday morning.
You -- what -- -- the introduces in the house and the senate.
They got to build about an hour before they responsible nobody -- In a were quickly voted out of both chambers within about three and a half hours.
Snyder says and I quote and this is Null and this is all about taking care.
Of the hard working workers in Michigan being pro worker and giving them freedom to make choices the goal isn't to divide Michigan to bring Michigan together.
Well let me tell you something the governor it's -- for quite a while that this would be an extremely.
Does -- have issues and we agreed with -- And it would divide -- state it would bring this state together and he said that over and over and over and over -- matter effect when we -- meeting with him.
He was under the the pretext -- the pretense.
That to keep this bill off his desk help me help you let's not I don't want this -- on my desk.
Help me to bring this state together and that's exactly -- -- spirits.
His way organized labor went into those discussions with a and it turns out I think.
We we were.
Swim plan but -- -- the term now all of a sudden he's going to -- itself but the idea really that we have a group of Republicans in Michigan.
This suddenly take it upon themselves to help labor unions to help the middle class to help the worker that just doesn't pass the giggle test.
Now he is also saying that when influence and was -- reports of ninety companies.
Decided to have -- an Indiana.
Since they adopted like to work legislation.
And the thousands of jobs that he wants or his state.
Could be lost because.
Without this -- religiously.
Well yet but the effect is and I and I heard the reports from these gentlemen in -- that -- try to run that's what he's received to this point.
As I understand it and from what he said is a lot of phone calls.
From companies.
That indicate they may be interest in moving to Indiana.
I've talked to a lot of people in her from a lot of people here in Michigan.
And when companies come here diminished and and -- contact them.
The Big Three that are here for example and other auto companies that comment no one ever asks the question by the way are you right to work.
They look at the labor management cooperation that home that -- the atmosphere in this state and right now it is absolutely divided and it's going to get worse.
I can't see where -- company.
Would wanna commit that this kind of atmosphere and bring they're they're they're they're companies their people their jobs to this state it it it doesn't work.
It has not worked in Indiana did not work in Oklahoma and -- not gonna work here in Michigan.
Why should non union members pay -- What should any idea is now -- this is about really that.
I mean in terms of I know it's forced to join the union but they still have to pay into it right -- have to pay -- Well because -- band members have received all of the all of the benefits protections and services.
Under the contract if that contract if the union bargains an increase in pay for an increase -- benefits.
Debt mountain member -- those benefits.
As they have forever.
And when a non member -- -- law -- -- any kind of trouble on the job and might need the services reunion of the protections of the union.
For -- due process rights we are -- we are we must by law provide those benefits.
So they should pay for that and and it is it's a misnomer to say that -- members.
-- individuals who don't wanna do in the unions have to -- -- of course you pay your fair share the that covered your share of the collective bargaining.
And your share of the protect other protections that we offers self.
Yeah about paying the full membership fee you're not considered a member of the union but two are paying your fair share -- not freeloading you pay your -- your paying your way.
Is the phrase right to work in the wrong way to put it.
Yeah I think it's freedom to -- -- For so what's going to be the result of global aussies and -- -- you've got a Republican House and senate.
In Michigan so there's not a lot of I guess leverage for union members and Democrats right to make a difference here.
Yeah and -- failure actually write the the -- just gone they have a supermajority in the in the senate they have absolute majority in the in the house this is going to happen.
So -- rolling real alternative we have under the Michigan law and the rules -- we have we can't bring this up for referendum because they attached appropriation of the bill that's the rules here in Michigan.
So our job really now is looking at the next two years.
The -- is that they will not have a moment's peace.
The individuals who voted for this the governor who voted for this -- this going to sign -- will not have a moment's peace.
For the next two years everything is -- Towards the primary in general election in 2014.
That is our opportunity to fix this or we're gonna take advantage -- -- -- -- when -- governor says this is divisive he does not know the meaning of the work.
But two years he will it's one of those things where you can't stop people from doing dumb things but we don't make -- wish -- -- This is energizing unions to get behind.
Have some other candidates.
Whoever is there a particular candidate -- -- to replace.
Well I personally have won but but she hasn't not what -- -- you -- -- that kind of take care of itself but I believe the labor will quickly coalesce.
A -- a candidate for governor hopefully that individual come out much sooner rather than later.
And yes absolutely we're going to be together on this and labor has been together in a very unique way.
The Michigan Education Association we belonged to the NEA.
But we're very close with the federation were very close with the United Auto Workers were very close with the American federation of labor hot -- At the end of this we get a -- -- -- big fruit basket because he has organized organized labor like nobody else has ever done.
Steve cook is with us president of the Michigan education association's I understand -- they exempted police and fire correct -- program -- that.
Well I I don't know I don't know but you know what -- bless them.
There -- exempted from this you know for a whole week we've been hearing about.
The freedom to work things so apparently they don't want the police and fire to have freedom.
But that's their deal police and fire exempted.
I don't know why I think everybody ought to be exempted -- -- to work so I I -- no grudge with police and fire but I really don't understand.
Why all of a sudden if you if this is such a good deal for labor such a good deal for workers such a good deal for the middle class.
Why they would certainly say well you two groups you don't count we're gonna polio.
You've got a long way to go to get mr.
-- did you -- to have a change leadership in the in the state and you've you've got the governor in both houses of legislature on the other side of this right now.
It's it's a big hill to climb there's no doubt about it but -- it was -- that's that labor in this state organized labor and the progressive movement in this state.
-- I have never seen them together as much as they are now our challenge is going to be keep that momentum going.
Keep the pressure on make sure they don't have a moment's peace and stayed together for the next two years tall order but I think we can do it.
Stay together for the next two years and make it count in the general and the primary election of.
Fourteen in Ohio didn't police and fire -- -- help overturned the anti union laws there.
Yes they get yet they did they were they were actively part of -- as a matter of fact it I I've had conversations with the the president of the Michigan player for these union.
And the he has publicly opposed being.
Being carved out.
This particular legislation itself.
But like I say we hold no -- with them.
You know they're there I if they're on the right side of the angels here -- the legislature decided to do whatever they wanted to do.
So so there are.
This anti union fever that they had to Wisconsin which could certainly hurt Hurt -- -- the lawn when nobody was not recalled that her -- -- Ohio.
He what if it's gonna hurt Snyder in Michigan.
I you wonder if labor is really gonna strike back over the next couple years as some of these -- governorships come up for.
I believe I believe it actually -- it was governor -- won his election over some very conservative.
Opponents and -- in this primary election and one of his things he kept telling everybody is is I'm more moderate.
I'm above all this political stuff I mean to -- and it never run for office anywhere in his entire life.
Governor was the first time -- -- run for anything and he he portrayed himself as somebody that's above the fray.
I'm not involved analyst politics stuff I'm not a political animal.
And and I think his votes when you look back over what he's done for over the last two years.
Every single Tea Party piece of legislation that this legislature is given and he signed every single one of -- So I I don't think he can pretend to be a moderate anymore.
The Steve I thank -- we dive into us and educating us a bit about what's going on there in Michigan and why -- I should be upon internationally because.
And other states that like Ohio and like Wisconsin that have had this anti you've union fever going and they we need to focus attention on it thanks so much for your time tonight.
Thank you so much Alan Murray Chris thank you to American.

She meets each one separately, and they never know that she tells everyone the same thing. Each leaves like they've been granted a special wisdom, knowledge not to share with the rest of the world, only theirs to keep.
And she always says, "Just let it happen." And they take it how they will.

How Does Google's Newest Upcoming Gadget Look to You?
Google unveiled the long-awaited "Project Glass" today, its eyeglass-based mobile computing tech.
Deemed "augmented-reality glasses," the sleek eyewear is apparently going to be capable of voice recognition, photography, audio playback, video chatting, GPS, location-based analysis, social media integration, and more.
Their YouTube promo video (below) is pretty impressive, though perhaps heavily doctored since Project Glass is currently in prototype testing mode. Google's present goal is to start generating public feedback and input on feature ideas and general reception.
There is also a contact lens version in the works, though time (and likely marketing research) will determine if and when that technology will see the light of day.

19 days until the end of the month and no VIN yet, I'm getting skeptical... Hoping Santa pulls a shiny new Model S from his, um... bag.
19 days until the end of the month and no VIN yet, I'm getting skeptical... Hoping Santa pulls a shiny new Model S from his, um... bag.
(P3853, VIN 3062) 85kW Dolphin Grey, Air Suspension, 19'' Wheels, Tech Package, Child Seats, Cargo Cover, No HPWC
Oh, really- you forget the rest? I think your S is coming complete with roll up windows and AM radio, or did you upgrade to eight-track?
1. Ed congrats. Put both of ours ona truck and send them East. Same configuration. Named mine Rhapsody (...in blue).
2. No way 500/day - but I suppose you never know. No, no way. 500 per week is just believable. If true, buy your shares of Tesla now.
3. Agree that there must be a fleet of trucks about to head or already heading East.
I SUSPECT: gameplan is to surprise folks they are here, giving a three day notice on a at-store delivery, like in Toronto/Vancouver/Fremont. This prevents the sloppiness-time-money of deliveries to different homes and, for the buyer, allows for a fun group event. As much as I'd love to see that truck roll down my street, a festival S's, one of which is mine - that'd be fun. Unlikely here in Teslachusetts, though, given issues with dealership - maybe the recent ruling locally would help allow for such an event here.
I'm sorry - welcome to the forum (sincere - you will find more info than you knew you needed, and you do need it), but I hate to inform you that your reservation in August, 2012, and your delivery in February is not registering here, where I believe there is a continuing wait, from August, 2009 to December, 2012, or 175 weeks and 3 days... 1,228 days...40 months and 10 days...3.36 years...three years, four months, ten days.
Just wondering, it's okay to put a $5,000 deposit the S now less than three years and two months before you drive it? Nobody told me. Torerazo, welcome, and I hope you enjoy the wait as much as I have. Like a long, sweet Christmas Eve of anticipation, forum posts and net searches, store visits and test drives, persevarations on things like a visor or a cubby shelf, and the slightly odd, early-adopting but wonderful community ever-growing around this California Company showing us the future, today.
I picked up my car in Seattle today - everything i hoped for and more.
The reason for this post is that the delivery specialist said there are about 30 S's in the wild in WA right now, but there will be nearly 200 by the end of this month!
Make of that what you will.
P2840, no notification yet even though bunches of folks all around my number seem to be getting VINs.
No more countdown needed. P1698/VIN 1657 is here!

Edgar Rice Burroughs: A Princess of Mars24. CHAPTER XXIV: TARS TARKAS FINDS A FRIEND (continued)Dispatching one of my men to Tars Tarkas for a detail of fifty Tharks, with word of my intentions, I ordered ten warriors to capture and open one of the great gates while with the nine remaining I took the other. We were to do our work quietly, no shots were to be fired and no general advance made until I had reached the palace with my fifty Tharks. Our plans worked to perfection. The two sentries we met were dispatched to their fathers upon the banks of the lost sea of Korus, and the guards at both gates followed them in silence. This is page 169 of 188.

Let's face it- people in California love Southwestern food. And in our small San Diego corner of the world, that means any fusion of ingredients that Spaniards, cowboys, Native Americans and Mexicans might have gnoshed on. You'll find the stalls bursting at our North Park Farmer's Market with ingredients for you to satiate those spicy cravings create your own style of Southwestern cuisine.
If you haven't already tried a sample, Bitchin' Sauce offers a spicy chipotle sauce that you can smother over just about anything. Make yourself a Southwestern breakfast bowl with fresh black eyed peas from JR Organics and corn kernels from Kawano Farms. Add a couple of sliced jalapenos from Suzie's Farm, diced heirloom tomatoes from Valdivia, and creamy chunks of Reed avocados from John Gilruth. You can add farm fresh poached eggs from Paradise Valley Ranch and top it off with chopped cilantro from Maciel & Family.
When you need a simple afternoon snack, reach for a handful of Smoked Chipotle almonds from Hopkins AG to give you that spicy kick you need to make it to dinner, and if you're still hungry by the time the market comes to and end, be sure to stop by Gourmet Tamales for a savory Sweet Corn and Poblano tamale!

Hold onto your hats, kiddies! Those trying to repeal "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" have a new supporter on their side. And it's not at all who you would expect.
It's former Vice President Dick Cheney! That's right, the Dick Cheney. In a shocking twist on the debate of whether or not gays and lesbians should be allowed to serve openly in the military, Dick Cheney came out on Sunday with an answer more surprising than a gunshot to the face.
He said yes!
His direct quote as seen on ABC's This Week in regards to whether it was time to let gays and lesbians serve openly in the military is as follows, "Well, I think the society has moved on. I think it's partly a generational question. I say I'm reluctant to second-guess the military in this regard because they're the ones who have got to make the judgment about how these policies affect the military capability of our, of our units. And that first requirement that you have to look at all the time is whether they're still capable of achieving their mission and does the policy change i.e. putting gays in the force, affect their ability to perform their mission. When the chiefs come forward and say we think we can do it, then it strikes me that it's time to reconsider the policy. And I think Admiral Mullen's said that."
Now while this doesn't exactly mean Cheney will be out there with his daughter in June wearing his Pride shirt through Northside, it is a surprising glimmer of hope from a very unlikely source. Considering his opposition just last year to a federal amendment to allow gay marriage, rather than going with state by state decision, his position on DADT seems a fraction bolder than the Cheney we are used to. But then again, we have heard this sort of vague support of what our military leaders deem the right course of action before.
On October 18, 2006, Senator John McCain appeared on MSNBC and was quoted as saying that if the military's leadership thought it time to change the current policy, then he would have to "consider seriously changing it." Not exactly a strong stance on the issue one way or the other, but significantly different to his current position. For despite Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mike Mullen's support of the repeal, stating in his testimony to Congress on February 2 of this year that, "allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly would be the right thing to do," John McCain stands in firm opposition.
"Don't Ask, Don't Tell has been an imperfect, but effective policy," McCain said to Congress, in response to the efforts to repeal. "And at this moment, when we're asking more of our military than at any time in recent memory, we should not repeal this law." Hmm… Funny McCain should bring up memory, since his seems to have a three year expiration.
Whether or not Cheney will offer any real support to the issue of repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," that remains to be seen. But for now, he has earned himself a slightly more progressive title than Senator John McCain. That's kind of like cringing a little less than the guy he's watching Brokeback Mountain with. But hey, it's one more "in favor" than we had before.
A gay couple living in Ohio has filed a lawsuit today against the state of Ohio for failing to recognize their Maryland-certified same-sex marriage, which they claim is discriminatory because the state is required to recognize any certified heterosexual marriage from another state as valid.
Jim Obergefell and John Arthur, who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a progressive and disabling neurological disease that causes muscles to rapidly deteriorate, traveled to Maryland last week to officially tie the knot after remaining as partners for 20 years, reports Cincinnati.com. The trip reportedly cost nearly $13,000 for a chartered, medically-equipped plane, all of which was sourced by donations from friends and family.
Arthur, 47, is a bed-ridden hospice patient and was diagnosed with ALS in 2011.
Attorney Al Gerhardstein, who is representing Arthur and Obergefell, cites the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection clause, noting that the Supreme Court's historic overturn of DOMA has stripped states of the right to discriminate against couples who seek same-sex marriages.
"John and James were validly married in Maryland. If they were an opposite sex couple, Ohio would recognize their marriage. Being a same-sex couple is no longer a good enough reason to deny them equal rights."
As an example, he explains that should two first cousins fall in love in the state of Ohio, they can't be wed in Ohio and have their union recognized; however, should they travel to Georgia, where marrying your first cousin is legal, they could come back to Ohio and have a recognizable union under state law, enjoying the same benefits as any other heterosexual married couple in Ohio. The same rules would follow for other stipulations prohibited under Ohio law, such as getting married underage in another state where the union would be legal.
Defense attorneys Terry Nester and Bridget Koontz were not available for comment. CityBeat will update this story with any changes.
Gerhardstein told CityBeat that the plaintiffs will go before U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Black on Monday, July 22, to ask for an expedited ruling in light of Arthur's rapidly deteriorating condition.
"Had the Supreme Court made this decision one year ago, this would have been as simple as us taking a trip because I could still walk. It's the progression for me of the ALS, it's...it's just compounded everything," he told Cincinnati.com camera crews earlier this week.
Chris Seelbach, a first-time candidate for Cincinnati City Council, has won an endorsement from the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, a national group that could provide a boost in campaign fundraising.
Founded in 1991, the Victory Fund provides strategic, technical and financial support to openly gay and lesbian candidates across the United States, helping them win elections at local, state and federal levels. Most recently, the organization helped elect Mayor Anise Parker of Houston, Texas, the fourth-largest city in the nation.
"These kids don't have to live on the streets and wonder every day where they'll be getting their next meal," DeWine said in a statement.
The grant money, which totals $430,000, will be shared between the Cincinnati organization and The Next Step, another homeless aid organization based in Geauga and Portage counties.
LYS, which helps about 2,200 people in the Greater Cincinnati area each day, will get $137,500 year per year for two years. The money will primarily go to the Lighthouse on Highland facility, which is located in Clifton. Bob Mecum, CEO of LYS, says the facility helps youth between the ages of 16 and 24 that are typically victims of violence.
During the day, Lighthouse on Highland provides nursing, showering, washing, food, shelter, computer and case-management services. At night, the organization acts as a 28-bed shelter. On the average day, the facility helps 10 to 30 people with its street outreach services and 40 to 60 people with its on-site services. On the typical night, 27 out of 28 beds are filled.
"Through this grant from the attorney general offices, the services out of the Highland location will be funded," Mecum says.
On average, LGBT youth face greater homelessness rates. Even though LGBT youth makes up only about 10 percent of the general youth population, LGBT youth makes up about 20 percent of the homeless youth population, according to the National Coalition of Homelessness. LGBT youth are also twice as likely to experience sexual abuse by the age of 12, and they're about 7.4 times more likely to experience acts of sexual violence than heterosexual youth.
LGBT rights are becoming "the new normal" in corporate America, but American Financial Group and Western & Southern Financial Group are apparently exceptions. Both Cincinnati-based Fortune 500 companies received a 0 percent for LGBT policies in the 2012 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) from the Human Rights Campaign (HRC).
The index uses LGBT-related corporate policies to determine scores: non-discrimination policies including sexual orientation and gender identity, company-provided domestic partner health insurance, equal health coverage for transgender individuals, organizational LGBT cultural competency, engagement in actions that undermine LGBT equality and other categories. The full rankings, dubbed a "Buyer's Guide," can be found here.
In the Greater Cincinnati area, Cincinnati-based Omnicare, Covington-based Ashland and Highland Heights-based General Cable fared only slightly better than American Financial and Western & Southern. The three companies received 15 points for at least including sexual orientation in non-discrimination policies.
Other Cincinnati-based Fortune 500 companies did much
better in HRC's rankings. Procter & Gamble got a 90 percent, Macy's
got a 90 percent, Kroger got an 85 percent and Fifth Third Bank got an
85 percent. The high scores show some companies are providing more to LGBT individuals than local, state and federal governments through equal access to health care and other benefits that aren't written into law.
On a national level, the five low-scoring Fortune 500 companies in Greater Cincinnati show a surprising level of backwardness. In general, the nationwide rankings were very positive this year. In an emailed statement, HRC pointed out 252 companies got 100-percent scores in 2012, up from 13 companies in 1991. As HRC put it, "For American companies, 100 percent is the new normal."
CityBeat could not reach Western & Southern or American Financial Group for immediate comment. This story will be updated if comments become available.
Cincinnati inched closer to equality after moving forward Monday with a measure that would allow city employees in same-sex and other partnerships to receive health insurance benefits.
With a push by Chris Seelbach, the first openly gay councilman in Cincinnati, the measure passed the finance committee with the support of all council members except Charlie Winburn, who abstained.
The approval came after a city report found that same-sex benefits could cost as much as $543,000 a year if 77 partners took advantage of the benefits.
The report suggested City Council mimic a system already in place in Columbus, which requires partners to prove financial interdependency and that they have been together for six months.
If the measure passes City Council, Cincinnati would be more caught up with other cities, states, countries and companies that already grant health benefits to same-sex couples. Earlier this year, the Human Rights Campaign estimated that 60 percent of Fortune 500 companies offer health benefits to same-sex couples, including Procter and Gamble and Fifth Third Bank.
Altogether, it seems like a small step toward equality. What's unfortunate is none of it would be required if same-sex marriage was legal in Ohio. If it was, same-sex couples could get marriage benefits, including health-care coverage.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine on Tuesday approved the petition language for an amendment that would overturn Ohio's 2004 ban on gay marriage. The new amendment would define marriage as "a union of two consenting adults, regardless of gender."
The amendment now moves forward to the Ohio Ballot Board. If approved, it will then require 385,253 signatures from registered voters and, finally, voter approval.
Ohio banned same-sex marriage in 2004 with a majority vote of 62 percent. But Ian James, co-founder of the Freedom to Marry Coalition, told the Huffington Post that he is optimistic things will be different this time, citing recent polls that show the nation is moving toward support of gay marriage.

Do you think he and Molly were really pissed?
Do you think he and Molly were really pissed?
He said something this morning about Jimmy
He mentioned Jimmy today about his ratings when he had kanye West on and he played a clip from the show.
Please don't cock block me on Twitter
It is very funny that he thinks Kimmel is his "best friend" and 'makes' parties for him, only for Howard to find out, Jimmy has parties at his house practically every weekend.
I have nothing clever to say...
Howard is still waiting for the signed affidavit from Jimmy swearing he hit the golf ball 300 yards.
you know I love Jimmy and he's a talented guy but you have a big name like Kanye West on and you don't even ask about his cock? what's that about, robin?

So, after the patch I noticed that Im still crashing when trying to load games. It actually started earlier this time: instead of crashes starting in turns 150-200, it started happening at turn 70ish. I did a quick test of just frequently saving and loading and got it to crash in turn 55, 1 city, and having only met 2 other states.
I reinstalled the game and began crashing again around turn 75.
Is it just me? Is anyone else still crashing? Maybe Firaxis/2K can create a crash log file that gets sent to them with vital info so they can diagnose why this continues MONTHS after the release of the game - after all, I get an error message to report this to Microsoft.
Im beyond frustrated in having to quit to the desktop and restart the entire game just to load.
My original post is located here for anyone who cares, nothing got better with the patch:

Minecraft 1.4 update delayed due to "mobs suffocating," and "wet wolves looking way too scary"
Minecraft 1.4, also known as the Pretty Scary Update, has been delayed – but only by one day.
Fri, Sep 21, 2012 | 14:16 BST
Minecraft update 1.4 to contain passive bats, new sounds
Minecraft snapshot features have shown off a new mob. It's a bat, and found in caves in the game. As in real life, they are only active during the evening and are passive creatures which will fly off when disturbed. If you decide to be mean and kill one anyway, they won't drop anything – yet. Bats are part of October's Pretty Scary Update, also known as 1.4, which includes the Wither, and other mobs as well as new sounds for mobs, tools, water and footsteps. Thanks, PCGamesN.

With the influx of white PC chassis reaching the market, users have been asking for white-themed versions of BitFenix accessories. Today, BitFenix is pleased to announce the Recon White fan controller and Spectre Pro All White LED fan series – two perfect additions to any white-themed system. Sporting an Arctic White SofTouch bezel and a bright white LED touchscreen, Recon White looks fantastic in virtually any white case. The world's first Internet-connected fan controller, Recon White enables users to connect to it using smartphones, tablets or laptops via the Internet. Five fan channels offer plenty of connectivity for every case fan in your system, and the easy-to-use touchscreen interface displays current system temperatures and fan speeds, while giving easy access to the Recon's advanced functionality. Now available in white, Recon White keeps your system cool in more ways than one. Delivering high performance with a fresh design aesthetic, the BitFenix Spectre Pro LED fan series is the gold standard for case fans. The first of its kind, Spectre Pro All White LED combines an all-white look with colored LEDs. Ideal for white-themed systems, Spectre Pro All White LED enables system builders to maintain their system's sleek white styling when off, and adding a splash of color when on for a completely unique look. Of course, Spectre Pro All White LED still delivers the same award-winning performance and features of the regular Spectre Pro series. High air volume and pressure make these fans ideal for water cooling radiators, while a unique dual frame construction helps reduce vibration during operation. Reinforced fan blades prevent warping during high rotational speeds, and fluid dynamic bearing technology ensures quiet operation and long life. Pricing and Availability BitFenix Recon White carries an MSRP of 34.90€ in the EU, $39 in North America. Both Recon White and Spectre Pro All White LED will be available beginning mid-October.
We should always have minimum starting Voltages with press releases like this one, it's such an important info, me thinks
It doesnt make sense why the 200mm fan is so much louder then the 230mm one. both of the run at 900rpm. shouldnt fans be more silent the bigger they are?? for instance moving up through the fan sizes from 40mm-140mm
http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/accessories/spectre-pro#specs It's on our product page 5V It's not much louder. 2 decibels. They're the same blade size, one is 230mm x 200mm x 30mm, one is 200mm x 200mm x 25mm. The wider blade has its benefits (better airflow and silence)
Nice controller! Don't understand why you want to hook up to the Web with it but hey Fans in white are great, all my Bitfenix fans are very quiet and move a decent amount of air. Good fans for the $$$ IMHO [H]ardstuff you that hard up for posts you doubling 'em up now? Lol :shadedshu
I fail to see how I'm trolling . . . I do see however, see that I am really excited for these new products, and would love to add them to my build!
Nice all around....except for the internet connectivity..... Not long before some nut with waaaay too much time on their hands start shuting down cooling systems.
Heh, I had ended up emailing a sales rep there the other week for info on Prodigy restocking. He did get back to me right away!
I look forward to being able to buy the 230mm white Spectre pro LED, handy timing as well as my current 230mm Spectre now dislikes being turned off so i was already considering options for a new large fan.

A graceful chandelier design from Franklin Iron Works®, perfect for adding warmth to kitchen, dining or hallway areas.
Rustic chandeliers add a soft yet sophisticated look to a room. This design comes from the Modella Collection and features six lights with warm scavo glass. The frame has hammered detailing and semi-scroll work in an attractive rustic bronze finish. A great look for kitchen lighting. By Franklin Iron Works®.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
If you want the lights to show an amber color, add the yellow bug lights 60 watt. They give it such a warm glow. Plenty of light otherwise.
This is the perfect size fixture over our dining room table. It really gives off a lot of light.
We selected this fixture to replace a very ugly 1997 chandelier from when the house was built. This one provides adequate light over our dining room table. It's a simple, elegant fixture that fits the Craftsman influenced style of the house.
This item is traditional and elegant.
Great for dining.
Due to the layout of our foyer and dining room we wanted lights that complimented each location. The soft colored glass shades offer a nice ambient glow upon entering our home and warm the dining room table during our meals. We are very pleased with our purchase.
This is a piece that adds to any room you would use it in. I used in for my entry way in a two-story foyer. Just about everyone that has come into our house since we installed it has commented on how great it looks.
For Dining Room
For our dining table
Definetly makes a bold statement, beautiful glass shades. One of my favorite lights!
We love the look of this lamp
In the foyer
Great quality of hammered iron, great finish, very high quality looking.
I love this chandelier. It's perfect for hanging over the dining table. Just the right size for our room. The iron finish complements our mediterranean decor and with the dimmer switch gives us the right amount of light for all occasions.
We bought this for our foyer to go with the matching pendant chandelier in the dining room. Our foyer needed more light and this does the trick! It's added so much to the look of our room. We love it.
I am using this as our primary fixture in our dining room. It is a great design with elegance and simplicity. I do not like gaudy and this fits the bill.
Wow, this item made the statement we were missing in our home. Great light in our entry and it has a view look from outside the front door. Very happy with this purchase. It warmed up the house and ties in all the furniture and decoration to our home. Light floods well in our entry yet does not lose the ambiance.
Great shipping! Got this at my front door in a timely manner, all packed well and fixture in great shape.
This light fixture delivers great light and is very attractive.
This looks beautiful in my dining room.
Used in the dining room
We love this light in our Dining Room. We get compliments all the time. We put the light on a dimmer switch so we can adjust the brightness and put it on low even when we aren't using the room because it hightlights the entire room. It really adds to the room and our rustic decor.
dining room
Hanging in our entrance way, this classical chandelier beautifully sets our home's tone and style as you enter.
Our associates are standing by to assist you.
