Governor -- coming out telling senate majority leader Harry Reid of put up or shut up when it comes the charges that he did not pay taxes.
And saying the allegation is coming from inside the president's own campaign.
It's wrong.
So so I'm I'm looking forward to having area.
Revealed his sources.
And -- -- -- that at the White House look the Obama campaign is gonna do everything in its power.
To try and talk about anything besides the president's record.
-- crisis median American incomes.
Gasoline prices to 43 million people underemployed or unemployed they don't want to talk about that or his promises.
So where -- we have.
Williams political analyst for us here at fox and Brad -- former deputy assistant.
Former president George W.
Bush gentlemen good morning to both of doing Rivera time to name names however -- That is going bad.
But there's something fundamental -- creepy.
About -- senate majority leader using his high office and in a sacred part.
Of our government the well the senate to make a partisan attack against the private citizen yeah -- running for president.
But for a for a high government official to abuse his power and I think that's where Republicans need to go there should be an ethics and violation.
Launched against Harry Reid for using his official capacity as the senate majority leader to make partisan attacks from the well of the senate.
-- to put up or shut up but not in the well of the senate these are the kind of allegations that should come from the DNC or the Obama they campaign they should be man enough.
To man up to these allegations.
-- problem can on this creepy what about that want to strike you a bit is creeping static I think I give a big game in this Friday morning to -- -- but I think that.
For the senate majority leader to play hardball politics of this type is a little much especially when you go to the senate floor bit.
In general he's the man of stature he really does run the government he is a powerful man in that position is a special place.
And to just be saying things went with out evidence so -- and do it.
Well it's hardball politics and you know Harry Reid really was a fighter I mean he's a top guy is a Smart guy and I say no they wanted -- tell them that well I don't know -- -- -- think -- would do this on his own Harry Reid really does think and he has said in the past by the way bill.
That you know Mitt Romney couldn't get confirmed for a cabinet posts -- because he has refused to release these tax returns I think it's a legitimate issue.
It's just that then once you start getting into speculation somebody told me but I can't tell you who.
That clearly -- the united goes crazy each hit two years of tax returns around our bread yesterday Eric -- from.
Was on our program it says it's untrue it's based that this -- baseless rather nothing to back them up.
By yet speaker Boehner saying talking about statements without any facts.
Mitch McConnell senate colleague called the accusations beneath the dignity.
Reid's office but -- not -- it is it.
No because this is part of the Democrats 3-D strategy.
Distort Mitt Romney's record deflect away from Obama's poor performance on the economy -- we've seen today with a job numbers.
And divide the American people rich against for this Robin Hood theory of economics we just take from the rich and get to the -- everything's going to be okay.
And Harry Reid believes that -- and might.
Estimation that Obama isn't doing enough so he's taking -- now upon himself.
Two to lead the charge against probably the problem is it is in his place in his high office to do it.
It's -- for others to do it in the proper setting again this is for the Obama campaign to do it from the campaign surrogates but not uglier and the majority -- -- itself.
You know it's a one man messages that it want to -- easily in the band on this thing.
On noted author of the band -- it's just a solo act now now now I mean -- everything that this is a big question and of course and political circles everybody is asking.
If there's nothing there why -- Romney released the tax returns and he must have made the calculation.
That you know there's more trouble from releasing it then.
Taking the heat from people now including Harry Reid who are really putting the pressure on for the fact that he keeps it private and secret and that's the whole notion you know that that thing I'd say -- Brad is this really represents politics low ball politics that we see today I think people congressional leaders on the Republican side.
Who -- -- -- others birther thing is nonsense or -- Obama's a socialist this kind of stuff is really doesn't take us anywhere doesn't lead us anywhere it's -- little doubt it has political emotional or does it appeals the other sensational that a senior greats from college at all that's stuff.
I mean nobody anywhere else.
Well they're grounded route and you ignore the biggest story ignore rather the biggest story today yeah that is an economy while -- 3% unemployment the White House out with a statement moments ago.
July's unemployment data shows the US economy continues to -- -- That's the shape and we get today that Brad what do you make it that.
Well I again I think the Obama administration is in denial they they believe that you can fool some of the people some of the time -- I think I will urge you bill that.
He's not going to be able to fool enough of the people this time around.
The American people know they're hurting.
They're hurting every time they go to the pump every time they have to make hard choices -- dining room table as to where their expenditures are gonna go on a limited budget and this is validation of what -- the economy isn't doing well the white.
-- is gonna make the argument that it's a slow recovery but it's a recovery nonetheless that's true on the question is whether or not.
The American people buy that argument well that's you know I mean again what we see here is I think most Americans know the economy's not doing great.
But they see a -- trajectory of growth there's no denying it added jobs.
And people are saying right now well so am -- satisfied or not and the thing I would add into this conversation is people also have a strong memory of how deep -- we were and and say you know what are we in fact digging out at an acceptable level or does Mitt Romney -- this -- in specific have better ideas -- -- -- I thank -- -- and we haven't heard those -- -- -- yet have builders are gonna ask themselves is it good enough rest -- critical question -- and what that other guy got off the right thing about -- yeah thank you want that simulator that our guys Brad thanks we'll see you soon from.

Children Affected by Physical, Mental Problems of Returning Troops
JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, WA—At a recent resiliency camp held here, 60 children getting ready for the return of a parent from long deployment were asked to write down all of the bad thoughts they had faced in the past year—because of deployment or anxious anticipation about the return. All of the notes then were gathered and set ablaze, as the children discussed the importance of letting those concerns disappear as if they were smoke.
PTSD May Be Influenced More by Childhood Trauma than Experiences During Wartime
AARHUS, DENMARK--Traumatic experiences in childhood, not wartime experiences, may have greater influence on which deployed servicemembers develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

That was awful.
chess notion reciting loud as in blindfold chess is taking toll in the outskirts of Caracase nomad plains somewhere south of the Abasguule tribe boundry with the hell desert and low lying crater volcanoes locally known as the 7th gate of hell. one camel herder while milking recites his chess moves loud in a blindfold chess match accross of what seems to be the only chess set south of that boundary, very remote. A patzer said you are only a nomad when you fully milk a camel and blindfoldly win a Shatranj game.
The Grob!
hahagetitgaiz :D
Did he order a Benoni Saemisch on Ruy with a Tal Falkbeer?
A chess player was always hanging out at the chess club, much to the annoyance of his wife. She would call the club three or four times a night. He often wouldn't take her calls because he was concetrating on his game. One night his friend answered the club phone when his wife called asking to speak to him. His friend, to play a joke on him, said "Oh, Harry -- he didn't come in tonight. But I did see him walking hand-in-hand with a beautiful young lady. They were laughing and getting into a taxi when I saw them." There was a pause on the other end of the line -- then his wife said cheerfully "Thank God he's just having an affair -- I was afraid he was at that damn chess club again."
Bobby Fischer walks into a bar. He walks up to the bartender and says "I'll have a chessboard." The bartender, confused, says "I don't have a chessboard...what can I get you to drink?" Bobby then screamed about the bar being run by jews and had a highly publicized meltdown, forever shaming him.

While adjacent to a historic town green, the Norwalk Inn is only one-quarter of a mile from both an active Metro-North station and the I-95 highway; we would be easily found even without East Avenue's landmark sign.
Only two years ago the Inn underwent a complete, multi-million dollar renovation under the direction of acclaimed architect Jozsef Solta; our lobby now features Indian granite floors, mahogany woodwork, a coffered rosetta ceiling, leather couches, an antique Persian rug, and covert light coves.
At the front desk our guests can ask about our 24/7 laundry service, free luggage storage, and free internet printing. For the sake of hospitality, we also set out daily-baked cookies (or candies) and today's newspaper, along with freshly-cut flowers.
Adam's Rib has been a Norwalk institution for more than 50 years, but both its function & look are completely contemporary. The full-service restaurant presents a Metro-style layout featuring Veneziano granite floors, a fully functional fireplace . . .
. . . maple wood wainscoting, crowning woodwork, torchlight ornamentation . . .
. . . and a beautiful painting-mural representing the Long Island Sound.
In our cocktail lounge guests might find Brazilian granite table tops, cherrywood flooring, polished birch furniture, maple wall paneling, Venetian plaster walls, and antique art prints. We also have two high-definition LCD television screens, one with a 50" screen and the other with a 42"; the TV's make Yankee wins look better than ever.
Larger groups also utilize the area for their gatherings. The patio's fixed-frame structure and available heaters work to moderate outside elements while still welcoming the fresh air and sunshine.
Those dining in the cocktail lounge can peer out to an adjoining flower garden and a mini-aquarium that's home to some very large goldfish.
The patio next to the cocktail lounge is shielded by a high canopy and bordered by carefully-maintained gardens consisting of various begonias, petunias, and impatiens. During the warmer months, the patio's a favorite lunch spot.
The patio's attractive enough to host wedding receptions, too.
Our kidney-shaped pool measures about 35' x 20' and reaches a kid-friendly depth of no more than 9'.
The pool area boasts a white picket fence and greenery like climbing ivy and sunflowers. Like the patio, it's idyllic enough to draw wedding ceremonies.
Guests have been known to enjoy a poolside drink and sunbathing session, too.
The Norwalk Inn features several types of accommodations among its 72 newly-renovated rooms. The 'deluxe king' suites come complete with hardwood floors, authentic Persian rugs, large work stations, and sitting areas.
The 'one king' suite delivers a large bed and work stations in a more mid-sized room. Like all other rooms, it features 80 channels of cable television and irons & ironing boards.
The 'two queen' accommodation is especially popular with families on vacation.
. . . and 'Natura'-brand toiletries.
For the benefit of our business travelers, all rooms feature various free amenities. For instance, we have no-codeword wireless internet access, data-port telephones, and radio alarm clocks.
For those venturing out of their rooms and into our conference rooms, the Norwalk Inn boasts over 4,000+ square feet of function space. We can support conferences for up to 475 with in-house audio / visual equipment including film projectors, remote phone connections, and microphones.
The Norwalk Inn maintains one of the most celebrated celebration spaces in Fairfield County. Our main banquet hall features Rosso marble set out in a 'starburst' pattern, and around that distinctive centerpiece guests will find a custom-built brass chandelier, Florentine rugs, Empire-style lighting fixtures, Verona wall paneling, raised-pattern wallpapering . . .
. . . and a fully stocked bar.
The event halls have enough room to comfortably accommodate up to 275 guests . . .
. . . while remaining adaptable enough to host relatively small parties. This particular room was set up for a bride and groom ceremony celebration.
We're proud of working with our clients to custom-create celebrations . . .
. . . in whatever beautiful design . . .
. . . and set-up . . .
. . . our clients so choose.
While we have years of experience in setting up classic weddings . . .
. . . we can always adjust table arrangements . . .
. . . and floral patterns as needed.

- Oh my soul, be prepared for the coming of the Stranger.
Be prepared for him who knows how to ask questions.- T. S. Eliot, The Rock (1934)
- We die to each other daily.
What we know of other people
Is only our memory of the moments
During which we knew them. And they have changed since then.
To pretend that they and we are the same
Is a useful and convenient social convention
Which must sometimes broken. We must also remember
That at every meeting we are meeting a stranger.- T. S. Eliot, The Cocktail Party (1949)
- He wanted them to meet as the completest of strangers — strangers-across-the-seas — all the more strangers because they knew each other already. He wanted them to meet far from their friends and relatives — in a place without a past, without history, free, really free, two people coming together with the utter freedom of strangers.
- Amitav Ghosh, ; The Shadow Lines (1988), p. 144
- For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

[View the story "Snow Day" on Storify]
Wherever the bar had been previously set in sports for "roller coaster of a game" — consider it demolished. The Ravens' stunning, three-touchdown, three-comeback performance in the final two minutes of Sunday's snow bowl win over the Minnesota Vikings left us happy, yes, but emotionally wrought. Like John Harbaugh, at the end, when Marlon Brown's incredible catch in the back of the end zone pulled victory from the jaws of defeat one last time, we could only bury our head in our hands, unable to laugh or cry. Too spent to scream with joy.
According to the stat mavens who track such things, the game's finish was the wildest ever in the NFL. The teams' combined five TDs in 2:05 "were the fastest that five touchdowns have been scored in the last 50 seasons — by more than 3½ minutes."
(By the way, did you notice the karma playing out yesterday in the NFL? As Jacoby Jones was making his dramatic touchdown return for the Ravens — somehow dancing inside the treacherous sideline the whole way — a miraculous, game-winning Pittsburgh play was nullified when Antonio Brown...
[View the story "Washington Monument Lighting" on Storify]
Ignorance of the sideline is no excuse.
The NFL announced today that they have fined Pittsburgh Steelers' coach Mike Tomlin $100,000 and will "consider modification or forfeiture of the team's draft choices" following the end of the season—once the draft order has been settled.
The fine—and potentially other penalties—stem from the head coach's interference with Jacoby Jones at the end of his long, third-quarter kickoff return during the Ravens' 22-20 win Thanksgiving night.
Tomlin maintains his stepping onto the field— forcing Jones to cutback and ultimately get pulled down from behind—was unintentional.
Tomlin, by the way, is not the only coach to get hit with a heavy fine in recent years. Partriots' coach Bill Belichick was fined $500,000 for the "Spygate" illegal videotaping of New York Jets' defensive signals in 2007. Former Jets' coach Sal Alosi was fined $100,000 for tripping a Miami Dolphins' player along the sidelines in 2010.
All the ingredients were there: It was Ravens vs. Steelers, in primetime, on Thanksgiving. You had to know that some brawling and maybe a couple controversies were bound to take place on the field. And this player, who's had an incredible past two weeks, was in the midst of it all.
Week 13 Stud: Jacoby Jones
The line:The past two weeks, Jones has has eight receptions and one touchdown (should have been two!) for a total of 156 yards.
Studliest moment:In the third quarter of Thursday night's game, Jones returned a kick for 73 yards, but not before Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin reached his right foot briefly onto the field, causing Jones to veer a bit inside and get tackled by cornerback Cortez Allen. The Ravens ended up settling for a field goal instead of a potenital touchdown. Tomlin's obvious leg obstruction, which has morphed into a hilarious meme, is under review by...
"There was a big crowd and everybody was trying to get a glimpse of the President," photograher Tom Scilipoti recalls, describing the evening of Oct. 10, 1962, when John F. Kennedy landed, via helicopter, at Patterson Park. "It was a very big deal for East Baltimore."
Kennedy (as seen in Scilipoti's photo above) landed in the park's extension at Eastern and South Linwood Avenues, en route to a speech at Baltimore's Fifth Regiment Armory in support of the state's Democratic Congressional candidates in the upcoming '62 elections, less than a month away.
"Now this isn't just merely coming up here and participating in parades and bands," Kennedy said in his remarks. "What we're talking about are those Members of the House and Senate who support those programs of minimum wage, and medical care for the aged, and urban renewal, and cleaning our rivers, and giving security to our older people, and educating our children, and giving jobs to our workers. That's the issue of this campaign, as it was in the campaign of 1960." Kennedy's entire speech can be found here.
Scilipoti, who had...
No one is going to confuse Geno Smith with Joe Namath. Not yet, anyway. Still, the Ravens put together their best defensive effort of the season Sunday, holding the Jets to a field goal and a measley 220 yards of offense. Smith and the Jets were just one of 12 on third-down conversions, in great part because of the Ravens' secondary play—particularly from this DB, who picked off two passes.
Week 11 Stud: Corey Graham
The line:Two interceptions, one tackle, three passes defended.
Studliest moment:In the third quarter, in Ravens' territory, Graham leapt high over Jets' tight end Jeff Cumberland for his first pick of the contest, which, in turn, set up Joe Flacco's game-breaking touchdown bomb to Jacoby Jones.
The clincher:Late in the fourth quarter,...
Talk about tough news to swallow:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed a measure earlier this month to ban artificial, artery-clogging trans fat—a move that if it goes into effect would likely force recipe changes for Baltimore's iconic Berger Cookies.
The FDA first required manufacturers to declare the amount of trans fat on "Nutrition Facts" labels in 2006 because of public health concerns, according to information on the FDA's website explaining the targeting of trans fat. An increased risk of heart disease, with plaque building up inside arteries has been linked to partially hydrogenated oils and trans fat. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "a further reduction of trans fat in the food supply can prevent an additional 7,000 deaths from heart disease each year and up to 20,000 heart attacks each year."
Berger Cookie bakery owner Charles DeBaufre told the Capital News Service this week that the company has made been two attempts to make the cookies without trans fat and the results were discouraging—at best.
(A box of the old fudge favorites briefly floated around the...
Today, the Baltimore Business Journal's editor-in-chief Joanna Sullivan reported that they got "duped" by one of the newspaper's "40 Under 40" winners, which debuted this week. Mike Brenner, who is the co-founder and CEO of tech incubator Betamore, had his identical twin brother Dan show up to the BBJ photo shoot and pose for him instead. He even offered up a clue in his write-up, describing himself as an "identical twin who still enjoys the occasional prank."
When we heard about the story, we immediately flipped back to our October issue, in which we named Mike Brenner a "40 Under 40" honoree. Did we get duped as well? "No that was really me at your photo shoot," Mike said with a laugh on the phone today. "Dan and I have done these kinds of pranks before and I just thought, 'Wouldn't it be funny?' I also feel like my brother deserves a lot of credit for the work he's done, so I wanted to shed some light on him. I thought it would be harmless."
Sullivan, however, disagreed...
Little more than four months after the bloodiest battle of the Civil War at Gettysburg, with as many as 51,000 soldiers killed, wounded, captured, or missing on each side, President Abraham Lincoln traveled to the small Adams County town for the dedication of the Soldier's National Cemetery.
Leaving Washington the day before the dedication, riding in a special Baltimore and Ohio Railroad car, Lincoln passed through Camden Station on Nov. 18. Escorted to the Northern Central Railroad's Bolton Station by the Fifth New York Heavy Artillery, Lincoln—en route to Gettysburg via Hanover Junction, PA—delivered his iconic words the following day, Nov. 19, 1863
Lincoln also returned to Washington by the same route after his brief speech—considered one of the greatest in American history. Beginning with "Four score and seven years ago" to highlight the battle as the turning point in the war, and hopefully, the country's history, Lincoln said that it was for the living to be "dedicated here to the...

And yet the South remains one of the best places to live, with the best football & the prettiest ladies. I wonder why? Maybe change for the sake of change is not always a good thing? Is that enough reality to soak in?
Cohen is very wrong on this issue, and I hope the votes will open their eyes to that.

Global Studies Major
Photography & Dance Minor
Hometown: Port Clinton, Ohio
As a native of Ohio, why did you choose to come to Hofstra?
I came to Hofstra because I was looking to leave the Midwest for college—mostly because I grew up in the Midwest and wanted to experience a different culture within our country—and, honestly, scholarship money brought me specifically to Hofstra.
What do you hope to do with your global studies degree upon graduation?
I came to college to learn—not to get a job—so I chose global studies because it interests me: photography and dance the same. I have accrued a large amount of life experience throughout my past several years, however, so I do not fear being able to find a position that I am passionate about when I am ready.
Tell us about your activism work with Students for Greener Hofstra (SGH)?
Students for a Greener Hofstra began as a club my freshman year and I have worked on several campaigns, specifically with faculty and administration to affect change at Hofstra. After my freshman year, two other students and I received a grant to write a proposal for a sustainability officer, which was a huge success. I have acted as the president and now act as the lead coordinator for administrative relations.
What role do you play as a Center for Civic Engagement intern?
As a CCE intern, I perform the regular CCE intern necessities (moderate for speakers, flier buildings, etc.) but I also work on more self-directed tasks. Currently I am planning an educational, Environmental and Civil Rights Trip for students to the Sustainable South Bronx and Harlem.
Tell us about your study abroad experiences and adventures in Mexico, Argentina and Asia.
My freshman year I went with Hofstra's study abroad program to Mexico, where we traveled 7,000+ kilometers throughout southern Mexico learning through experiencing anthropology and indigenous rights and culture. I took the first semester off my sophomore year to do an experiential learning program in South and Southeast Asia. The program combined living with host families, volunteering, trekking, taking classes on subjects from Hindi to yoga to the struggles of Southest Asian hill tribes…and so much more! I learned by far more than I could have in any semester in a university and certainly enhanced my education in global studies and photography. The summer before my junior year, I found a program in Buenos Aires (not a Hofstra program.) I wanted to greatly improve my Spanish, so going to a Spanish speaking country was the natural alternative to studying Spanish in a classroom three hours a week! I lived with an Argentine family and took three university courses in Spanish and spent some time Couch Surfing and traveling in Argentina and nearby countries. Throughout, while I was enhancing my Spanish and my understanding of Argentine culture, I was also working to improve my Argentine tango, Cuban salsa and other cultural dances.
What have you liked so far about attending school in New York and how does this experience compare with growing up in Ohio?
I like all of the opportunities in the nearby bureaus, but because we are not in NYC that becomes somewhat of a double-edged sword with the cost and time of commuting. I spend a lot of time dancing, taking advantage of the social dance opportunities in and around Manhattan. Hofstra's Honors College is in a wonderful position to take advantage of Hostra's relatively close proximity to NYC and I have subsequently done so, also, visiting museums, shows, and countless opportunities that an honors college elsewhere may not be able to offer. Certain things in New York cannot be compared to Ohio: while I appreciate the nature, the Midwestern friendliness, and the conscientious drivers of Ohio, I also am glad to gain from the diversity and huge range of interests that can be met near NYC. Also, simply because of the diversity of this region, there is great opportunity available to learn from the wide range of events and clubs within Hofstra's community.
What do you do with the Progressive Students Union (PSU)?
The second semester of my freshman year I was the vice president of PSU, but as our environmentalism branched off from PSU into its own separate club, I slowly began taking on less initiatives in PSU so I could focus on SGH. I am still an active member of PSU and a helpful resource!
You are also a Resident Advisor (RA). How has this experience shaped your college life?
I am an RA in the Honors Living Learning community. It certainly is more work than I could have ever foreseen, but from the financial side to the overwhelming benefits that it provides from a sociological perspective (being the number one resource for residents and working so closely with a staff gives you great insight into human nature!) it is completely invaluable.
With all the clubs and organizations you're involved in, what do you like to do with the free time you have?
In most of my free time… I dance. Both in clubs on campus such as Hepcatz Swing and Shake It!, the belly dancing group, and in the city doing social dance from swing and tango to Latin; dancing keeps me sane. Also art, yoga, exercise, and sufficient time outdoors also keeps me going; I have not had a television since I began college and have found that knitting or riding my bicycle to the park provides far better relaxation than television could ever provide!

5 Meetup Groups match "Panic Disorders" near Reston, VA
This group is for women who are currently going through anxiety and panic to meet others, as well as those who have recovered to share their success stories.

If this is impossible for a group member to do, then I highly encourage they seek help from a professional who can help them navigate and make their own tools. This group in no form or way replaces or comes close to replaci …

Anxiety is the No. 1 mental health problem in the U.S. You are not alone! I am creating this group because I have not been able to find one in the Montgomery County area. I envision a regular meeting for people to share their experience with anxiety, learn coping techniques, make friends and plan social outings. Anxiety disorders include panic, OCD, phobias and social anxiety. Depression often co-occurs.

Charles F. Brannock Born May 16, 1903 – November 22, 1992 Foot Measuring Device Patent #: 1,682,366
Inducted 2007
Charles Brannock invented the Brannock Device® for measuring feet, improving
upon the traditional methods of feet measurement. Inventor Bio Born in Syracuse, New York, Brannock attended Syracuse University.
Working as a salesman at his father's shoe store, he began designing a
device to improve traditional size-sticks used to measure feet in the
shoe industry. He developed the Brannock Device, which consists of a
series of graduated measurements along the base plate for both men and
women's foot measurements. By observing a foot on this base plate, a
shoe salesperson can read from the graduated markings the shoe
size—measuring the length and width as well as the heel to the ball of
the foot—that would best fit the customer.
