The Next 5 Battleground States For Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion
Going into 2014, the United States is split down the middle: 25 states (plus Washington, D.C.) have expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, and 25 states have not.

Very interesting discussion here at The Hive of what TPM Readers think of the group 'Third Way' (sub req). I think I'll jump in myself. But just speaking for myself, it's not so much that I disagree with most of the group's positions (though I do) as I see them as sort of irrelevant to most current policy discussions.
It's the time of year you've all been waiting for: TPM's annual homage to the year's best purveyors of public corruption, outlandish behavior and The Crazy. (The awards are named in honor of Congressman-turned-inmate Randy "Duke" Cunningham.)
This is the seventh annual installment of the Golden Dukes, and this year it's sponsored by Media Matters, which also gives out its own annual award, Misinformer of the Year, given for the biggest errors by a media figure/institution in 2013. Media Matters will announce Misinformer of the Year at the same time as the Dukes. (See last year's winners here.)
Nominations are due no later than Monday, December 16, 2013. Submission details after the jump!
Today at TPM Cafe Reign of Error author Diane Ravitch has some harsh words for the legacy of former D.C. School Chancellor Michelle Rhee: "Many states and the federal government have invested hundreds of millions of dollars—perhaps even billions—on various incentive programs, hoping that teachers will work harder or better if they are promised a bonus or threatened with a loss of their job. But these incentive programs have failed again and again."
We're pleased to host a live author chat with Ravitch, as well as some other education policy folks on Friday at noon ET (TPM Prime sub. req.).
Two new polls out today from pretty respected pollsters showing fairly different pictures of the public mind on the President and his signature legislation, Obamacare. Pew shows both back to pre-rollout levels, while Quinnipiac shows some continued drop and the President's unpopularity dragging down Congressional Democrats.
Maybe John Cornyn doesn't have that much to worry about? Last month the city Fire Marshal condemned primary challenger Rep. Steve Stockman's campaign headquarters, which seemed to be set up like a sort of Tea Party commune, and ordered its emergency closure for various health and safety violations.
The Capitol state grounds in Tallahassee, Florida this year will have an official Festivus pole alongside the usual Christmas installation.
Just a few days ago a GOP flack was on my case about how John Cornyn had successfully avoided a Tea Party challenger, after I described how much he was still doing to play to the crazy to avoid just such a challenge. Now the Texas Monthly has published a November interview with Cornyn in which he complains that the Tea Party sets an "impossible standard" for Republicans to meet. And that's come just hours after Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX), perhaps one of the whackiest members of Congress, announced that he is challenging Cornyn.
Rubio complains Obama didn't take Raul Castro to task for denying freedoms at Mandela memorial.
On Saturday we had our first annual TPM Holiday party at our New York City office (yes, War on Christmas, 'natch). As part of the festivities we had an amazingly talented photographer, Victor Jeffreys, taking portraits. After the jump, an assortment of them and a chance to see up close and in their best light who writes, edits, publishes, designs and codes everything you see here each day. as well as a bunch of our friends.

One of the leading playwrights of the late twentieth century, August Wilson brought African American culture and history to the stage with eloquence. His many awards, including two Pulitzer Prizes, together with his formidable critical reputation and the popularity of his plays, marked his status as perhaps the greatest black dramatist of his generation. Wilson is widely known for his ear for idiomatic African American dialogue, his gift for portraying political dilemmas and social turbulence in an immediate and compelling manner, and his deep knowledge of daily life among impoverished blacks living in U.S. cities.
Two Trains Running, one of Wilson's most overtly and pointedly political works, takes place during the heyday of the black power movement, at a moment of great upheaval in U.S. race relations. It is one of a series of plays dealing with African American culture and history in the twentieth century, and perhaps its central theme is the manner in which the poor urban black community reacted to legal victories of the civil rights movement. Wilson stresses that a sense of hopelessness went hand-in-hand with optimism and progress in places such as 1969 urban Pittsburgh, where equal rights applied to African Americans only in theory and many blacks struggled daily with meager wages and dismal prospects. As of 2007, the play was available in a 1993 paperback edition published by Plume Drama. It originally opened in 1990 and came to Broadway in 1992 with a cast that included Samuel L. Jackson and Laurence Fishburne.

Question by Megan 9 309 · Feb 15 '12 at 04:52 PM · bowels constipation
Ok, I never ever thought I'd ask a question about bathroom habits in a public arena. That said, I am asking a question about the yucky stuff. I am on day 6 of Paleo. I have increased my fat intake, at the suggestions of many (I was dizzy, weak, lightheaded and feel much better now) on this site. I eat hardboiled eggs for breakfast, snack on almonds o fruit if hungry, huge salads with bacon or steak on top, veggies and meat (chicken, turkey, fish, beef...BACON) for dinner and am attempting to drown myself in water. I even drink coffee in the a.m. and that used to move things right along, if you know what I mean.
Here's the thing. Remember when you were young and got constipated...your mom always said, "you need more roughage (ruffage)!"
I eat a TON of veggies/ruffage, am on day 6 and um...well, haven't pooped once. Amazingly, I'm not in pain at all - no gut pain, nothing.
Did anyone else have this problem?

Day 6? You have a ways to go.
Understand that digestion is dictated by a whole universe of bacteria whose DNA outnumbers your own human DNA. They have a stake in not only your digestive health, but your immune system and neurological functioning. You cannot shift these populations overnight. It may take months or longer to get them operating in an optimal fashion. Any "cheat" will set you back. I speak from experience, having had a weekend away, and while I didn't go totally off the rails, a bunch of small cheats stacked up and I feel awful.
I think the roughage for digestion business is a farce. It is a response to the SAD garbage everyone eats. If you're eating tons of processed foods, the logical answer appears to be roughage, but for Paleo-style diets, I highly doubt it. I've never had constipation eating this way and I don't focus on roughage.
Give it time. And be careful with the water! Make sure you're getting adequate amounts, but you can go overboard and dilute the HCl acid in your stomach, which will have consequences down the line, if you know what I mean.
For more info, I highly recommend Nora Gedgaudas's Primal Body, Primal Mind.
Answer by aseafish 3900 · Feb 15 '12 at 05:54 PM
If you haven't already done so, add probiotics to your diet. You can take capsules, but my favorite is raw sauerkraut. Other raw cultured vegetables are fine, too. The results are undeniable as your body adjusts to taking care of its own internal functions, as it was designed to do.
It really works, effortlessly.
Answer by Nancynurse 81 · Feb 15 '12 at 06:11 PM
In a family of 8, we all poop less on Paleo. I think it's that our bodies actually use the foods that we eat. There is not as much unnecessary waste!
Answer by NMT 71 · Feb 15 '12 at 06:32 PM
I had this problem too. It only got worse. Be careful as everyone is not the same. Some of us can't take the high amounts of fat/protein. I would ease into Paleo and add Magnesium (helps the elimination process).
Answer by Paul Jaminet 5495 · Feb 15 '12 at 06:01 PM
It's a common problem on excessively low carb diets. Add some carbs, along with vitamin C and selenium, and odds are you'll be fine. For more possibilities to troubleshoot, see http://perfecthealthdiet.com/?p=2998.
Answer by primallykosher 4571 · Feb 15 '12 at 05:05 PM
Try bone broth, some sweet potatoes, fermented foods (kombatchu, sourkraut, kimchi) and drink more water. Also long walks will help too.
Answer by cj 5 52 · Feb 15 '12 at 05:16 PM
When you think about what poop is (lol)--stuff that your body could not process--you may find your answer there! On a very strict paleo diet, even my multiple-times-a-day-every-day husband goes a few days between BMs(we had a whole discussion about it..romantic, huh?). As long as you are not uncomfortable physically, don't worry about it. It really is much more scary when you do poop after you allow yourself something decidedly unpaleo. Then you think, jeez why am i pooping so much?
Answer by Joshua 1 87 · Feb 15 '12 at 05:21 PM
Some people are different, but I can say for certainty that in my experience? Yo' mama was wrong.
One of my new years resolutions was to increase my vegetable intake by eating (in addition to my normal amounts of veggies) at least a pound of raw vegetables per day.
As I've mentioned before, for about a week I felt fantastic... I was taking half a pound of kale, cranberries, blueberries, grated carrots, and spirulina and shoving it all into a blender with water and choking it down with breakfast.
After a week, I stopped pooping for a couple of days. When I did finally poop, it was a 1 on the bristol scale (dense, painful little rocks). I drink at a minimum, 3 quarts of water per day, and most days, at least twice that.
I went back to my old standby, about 7-10% carbs from veggies, 55% or more from fat, and the rest protein. And now everything works as it should.
I'm not saying that you will be different, in fact I know for sure you will, but experimentation is key to find out what works for you.
Answer by Mike 29 31 · Feb 15 '12 at 05:37 PM
Since this is a place to be open and frank, I'll share my experience with this subject. Before going to a modified Paleo diet, I was once a day every day, like clockwork. When I made the switch, all of a sudden I didn't have to go as much, and when I did it was like half the volume (sorry if this is to detailed).
I'm not sure why this happens, but it doesn't seem to be a big deal...just the new reality. I also eat as much or more fruit and veggies as before. Could the volume be down because of less indigestible fiber from breads, etc.?
Answer by fine_balance 31 · Mar 02 '12 at 12:53 PM
There are lots of things that can cause the symptoms that you are describing. I am on a Paleo diet as well and I love it, but I have had to go through lots of trial and error to find the correct balance of good carbohydrates, proteins & fatty acids to make by digestive system run perfectly. Constipation was the main problem and of course it's hard to lose weight if your your body is not digesting the proteins in the high quantities of meat consumed. The following worked for me:
Betaine Hydrochloride (HLC) tablets - Your stomach mat be underproducing stomach acid. HLC helps to neutralise stomach acid and break down the proteins in your stomach, before they enter the rest of your digestive system. It helps with constipation. Make sure you do the test to see if your stomach is underproducing or over producing BEFORE you launch into this. read this link http://www.modernherbalist.com/betaine.html.
Magnesium supplements - Sleeplessness and muscle cramping are both symptoms of a magnesium deficiency. Go to you local Pharmacy and ask which supplements are the best. Take one a day before bed.
Calcium supplements - Sleeplessness is also a symptom is being low is Calcium. Try a Calcium supplement before bed.
Lastly, you only need one serving of fruit per day and it's best to eat it in the morning. Increase the amount of green leafy vegetables that you are eating, decrease red meats and increase oily fish like salmon, increase your healthy fat intake (avocados, nuts, fish, coconut etc.), don't eat fruit with your meat.
I hope this helps a little :)

About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
This stylish, user-friendly tablet is a great choice for general computer users, but not recommended for high functioning tasks. Testers loved the vibrant screen, ample sized keyboard, and large touchpad. The touch sensitivity and multi-touch zoom is good and the integrated camera is a lot of fun. The screen is a bit top heavy so it may tip over when you rest it on your lap. The power button is hard to find on the side. shopping.hp.com.

Retired teachers hear program on legislative issues
PRINCETON — The Oct. 18 luncheon meeting of the Bureau County Retired Teachers Association was held at the Princeton Public Library. A business meeting was conducted, followed by a presentation on Illinois legislative issues.
Illinois Reps. Frank Mautino of the 76th Representative District and Donald L. Moffitt of the 74th Representative District presented views on important issues that the Illinois General Assembly will be facing as legislators return to Springfield in January 2013.
The state of Illinois has a debt problem and continues to face ongoing fiscal issues that prevent running state government responsibly and efficiently. The deficits are almost insurmountable. Consequently, reductions, cutbacks and methods of funding are all on the table relative to any changes that can aid Illinois in meeting its fiscal responsibilities. Fiscal year 2013 does not look too promising.

STEUBENVILLE - Mayor Domenick Mucci called upon supporters of the city's unofficial logo to "stay united" as city officials review their options in light of a threatened lawsuit by a Madison, Wis., organization.
But the supporters who packed City Council chambers Tuesday night urged council members to officially adopt the logo and to fight attempts by the freedom from Religion Foundation to remove the cross and a silhouette of the Franciscan University of Steubenville's Christ the King Chapel from the logo.
"This all started when the city manager and the City Council thought it would be nice to have a logo that encompasses all aspects of the city. This council embraced the logo because we all wanted it to be inclusive of everything we have here. We decided we would use the logo so it would catch on. But we should have assumed someone would challenge such a beautiful logo," said Mucci in remarks to a standing-room-only crowd in City Council chambers Tuesday night.

LOGO SUPPORTER – John Saggio of Steubenville was one of several speakers Tuesday night supporting the unofficial city logo that contains a cross and the silhouette of the Franciscan University of Steubenville Christ the King Chapel. The standing-room-only audience urged council members to officially adopt the logo that is under attack from the Freedom From Religion Foundation of Madison, Wis. -- Dave Gossett
"The logo was painted in the Martin Luther King Recreation Center gymnasium and 1st Ward Councilman Gerald DiLoreto included the logo on the billboard sign at the entrance to Belleview Park that Councilman DiLoreto paid for. But the logo was never officially adopted by the council. We surely did embrace it, but we did not officially adopt it. We will find out how legitimate the complaint by the freedom from Religion Foundation really is since we didn't adopt it," continued Mucci.
"We are finding out there are organizations willing to assist the city. The city manager and law director are sorting through those offers. But we can move forward even without the logo. And I can assure that while the logo may not appear on city vehicles or stationary, it will appear throughout the city," added Mucci.
"I urge you to adopt the logo. Make it legal so you can use it. If there are any residents who don't like the logo, let them come forward. How do we really know there is a resident who is complaining. Don't throw this logo away because someone didn't like it," urged city resident Mary King.
"I don't understand why the Ku Klux Klan can burn a cross and it is considered protected speech. But putting a cross on a logo is considered wrong. I also urge you to adopt the logo," Wintersville resident Albert Macre said.
Marshall Myers of the Knights of Columbus presented petitions signed by more than 300 people last weekend at St. Peter Catholic Church in Steubenville supporting keeping the cross and chapel silhouette in the logo.
And, John Saggio of Steubenville said the FFRF "has a problem with God. That is really where the issue is."
"The city is talking about doing away with the emblem because one person said (he or she was) offended. Well I am offended when someone can say I can't represent Jesus Christ. We stopped prayer in the schools and now we have less people in school and more people in prison. Once you start this it will affect your children, your children's children and your children's children's children," stated Minister Willa Wade of Steubenville.
DiLoreto announced the Belleview Park entrance sign he paid for will not be changed to exclude the logo.
In other business during the regular council meeting, 6th Ward Councilman David Lalich called for a council safety committee meeting at 6:45 p.m. Tuesday to discuss the possibility of reinstating traffic cameras.
Lalich said putting traffic cameras in school zones and in neighborhoods where residents are complaining about speeders may be the answer to a limited police force.
"The cameras may also generate additional revenue that will allow the city to hire more police officers. We will discuss this in an open meeting and decide if we want to proceed," said Lalich.
Council formally approved legislation authorizing the expansion of the Steel Valley Regional Transit Authority to allow the village of Wintersville to join Steubenville and Mingo Junction in the authority.
Council also approved appropriations legislation and a tax budget for the remainder of the year and adopted a tax budget for 2013.
An ordinance renaming the city's FEMA Fund as the Emergency Management Fund also was approved after a third reading.
A second reading for a revised employee table of organization was heard but also came under fire from former city finance department employee Lori Mason, who questioned the salary for new fire Chief Carlo Capaldi.
"The fire chief's salary will be the same as the police chief's salary. We can't put more police on the streets if we are going to give salaries that will put us in a deficit by 2014. If the fire chief deserves a raise, give it to him after a period of time on the job. An immediate raise is not fair," said Mason.
Council also heard from Joseph Antoniello of the Students for a Fair Society who questioned poverty and crimes in poor communities.
Third Ward Councilman Greg Metcalf called for a council pride committee meeting at 6:30 p.m. prior to the Aug. 14 regular meeting to discuss Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce ideas for a new entrance to the city at Washington Street and state Route 7.
"We will also hear an update on 4th Ward Councilwoman Angela Suggs' ideas for neighborhood beautification," said Metcalf.
Fifth Ward Councilman Willie Paul called for less emergency legislation to be brought before council.
"We need to receive the proposed legislation earlier so we can study it and not face emergency passage of ordinances," said Paul.
And council unanimously approved Tyrone Thomas to replace William Welsh on the city planning and zoning commission. Welsh resigned citing his inability to serve full time on the commission.

I recently read a great article over at Mom's Homeroom about activities that
Help Your Child's Fine-Motor Control written by Joanna Nesbit.
In the article she talked about how important hand-eye coordination
and fine-motor control is for learning how to write.
A lot of this development takes place between ages 2 and 6.
That doesn't mean that your child should start writing at age 2 but you will see
them starting to use their hands more as they create, play, and explore.
My own little "C"is obsessed with writing right now, she makes little
notes and books on scraps of paper and I find them all over the house!
I'm trying to help her have the best head start this summer as she gets ready
for kindergarten in the fall so we're incorporating several of the activities
she recommends in the article into our play time. These activities will help
your child learn about shapes and in turn, get them ready for interpreting shapes into letters!
Here are some of her fun fine motor boosting
activities you'll see around our house this summer:
Play with clay or play dough
We love to make homemade play dough as well as use store bought dough.
Stamps, beads, lace, straws, googly eyes, and feathers are fun to add to play dough!
Finger Paint!
We love to paint with food coloring and shaving cream in the bath tub.
Finger Painting with shaving cream to see finger motion.
Drawing with stubby chalk (or soy crayon rocks)
to force that tri-grip with the finger tips instead of the whole hand.
Make collages and other art projects that encourage cutting and pasting.
Other fine motor booster activities not mentioned in the article
but that are big favorites around here, include:
Happy (sneaky) summer skill building through play and creating!

Mary Sullivan
I'm in the process of writing proposals to send to Harlequin for my next Superromances and had to come up with names for three brothers. It's a more difficult task than you would think. With each name we choose, we want to convey a certain image, of strength and vitality, or of masculine dependability. There are so many ways in which we shape our heroes and the name can be a large part of that. I write about cowboys and, in an effort to avoid names that seem to be overused in fiction, turned to my research books about modern-day cowboys. What I found surprised me.
For every 'common' name I found such as Bill, Keith, John and Jim, there was what I consider a name that is part of the fictional cowboy culture, as found in books or movies, or heard often in the country music culture. Those included Tyson, Shane, Duke, Chad, Lyle, Cody, Casey, Jake, Colt, Sonny, Christian, Travis; however, these men weren't celluloid stars. They were real men doing real cowboy and ranch work, difficult jobs in the best and the worst weather.
I wondered about the cowboy heroes we portray in our romance fiction and whether any names have become so overused, or such a cliché that readers are tired of seeing them.
Some of the names I've used so far in my Supers are Hank and Cash and Rem (Remington). Hank is the strong, silent type. Cash is masculine and sexy. Rem is a bad boy turned good.
My three brothers will be named Gabriel (Gabe), Tyler (Ty) and Jonathan (Jon).
So…a curious author wants to know, on the issue of names, which are you as readers so tired of you never want to read them again. These can be in any subgenre of romance fiction, not just cowboy names.
On the flip side, which names do you LOVE and which male characteristics do they portray for you? My favorites are Michael and Gabe. I haven't used Michael yet, but will one day.
I would love to give away a copy of my Super This Cowboy's Son to one of you who comments here ;-)

Purposeless Update
Exception: Watching the start of Season Four of Battlestar Galactica is awesome, exciting, and just cool. Particularly great was the season premiere, when the Disserator and I went to a social gathering specifically because they had a tv with cable there. We left our friends after 45 minutes, went into the basement, watched the show, and came back up. All the while enduring the catcalls from our friends upstairs, who kept asking things like "Are the aliens attacking yet?", which just shows how little/nothing they know about the awesomeness of BSG.
Ok, so priority one in my life right now is editing down a dissertation chapter into a conference paper. Dissertation chapter: 56 pages. Conference paper: 8-10 pages. This is like trying to pour a birthday cake into a funnel. You end up with a big mess, you lose all the structure, and while it may still have some decent taste to it, there's no style or overall sense left. You just end up with a pile of frosting and cake all mushed together, and probably very dirty hands. That's how I feel about that.
In essence, I've cut out the main two argumentative points of the chapter. I barely talk about the book at all now. Much of my theory has gone by the wayside. And I can't tell if the sections all add up to something, or if I've just got a collection of random stuff. And I'm still two pages over the limit. Luckily, I'll be presenting this paper in Long Beach, CA, so even if it isn't any good (and I have to endure scorn from the Yalie grad student on my panel), I'll still be someplace pleasant and warm.
Priority Two: Still been dissertating. Second chapter progressing slowly, but not nearly as rapidly or coherently as my last chapter. This is a problem that arises when you use up all your good ideas in the first chapter.
Priority Three: Grading papers. I plan to do this at some point, despite the fact that the bulk of them are probably very bad papers about Emily Dickinson.
Priority Four: Halo 3. I've been playing a lot of this recently, largely because the catharsis of killing people helps bleed off the tension of all the work I should be doing and am constantly thinking about. And yet, despite this constant thought, I don't actually seem to spend all that much time working. Not sure what else I'm doing with that time, except...
Priority Five: Rome. Ok, this isn't a bad priority. Rome is a phenomenal show that I'm going through on dvd (blessed Netflix!). It's a badass retelling of the fall of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Empire, centered around the lives of two Roman soldiers. It was originally on HBO, so it has no problem with violence, sex, gore, language, etc., which was made abundantly clear in the penultimate episode of season one, where Vorenus (one of the soldiers) kills a man with a spiked mace. Of course, he doesn't use the spikes or the giant metal ball on top. No, he drives the mace's handle through the man's neck so it looks like he has two heads. Just because he was pissed off. I've learned a lot of cool things about the Roman civilization. People were apparently sleeping around a lot. Togas look much cooler than one might anticipate. And apparently every domestic/social function involved a lot of lying around on couches. Seriously. I could get behind a civilization that let me lie on a couch while at a party. Though I might pass out from drunkenness much more quickly.
But still, Rome is awesome. Check it out.
Yeah, so that's about all that's going on right now. Hopefully I'll have something slightly more amusing to post about soon. Or at least some more colorful metaphors about cake. Which I kinda want now. Mmmm.....cake.

I had the same problem writing my dissertation. Chapter 2 has all the bulk (after the introductory chapter). Chapters 3 and 4 are mostly bs. Chapter 5 is the summary chapter - ie. copy and paste from the results sections of the previous chapters. By the by - I defend in just over 2 weeks. Boo yah sucka!

First off, screw you, Dr. Church. Lousy scientists, with their "less than five years" dissertations.
Second, yes BSG would beat the frak out of Rome. And I like to think my inclusion of the made-up swear word only heightens the geekiness.
Third, cake is good. Mmmm. Cake. - 11:07 AM

Q. I'm contacting you in regards to an issue that I originally submitted a request for back in early August to the City Department of Traffic and Lighting. As of today, the request has not received a final response, so I thought I would drop your office a line and see if you could be of assistance. The traffic signal going east or west on Jackson Road through Miami Street (south side of South Bend) has an excessively long red (light) ... longer than a minute. This is quite extreme at a corner that is not very busy.
A similar timing problem with the traffic signal also exists just north of this intersection, at Bowen and Miami streets (near McDonald's and Martin's). The timing on this light, also going east or west through the intersection, is actually quite a bit longer than the Jackson light. I'm sorry to bother you with this small item as I know your office has bigger fish to fry, but it's been frustrating waiting on a response through the normal channels.
A. Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention. The city engineer's office adjusted the light signals to sensory lights that will adjust to current traffic flow. This should help aid transportation as you and other south-side residents drive these streets. This is a good example of an issue that could be addressed by a new city initiative. As part of the final 2013 budget, the administration will implement a 311 phone line for customer concerns. This will make responding to citizens' concerns friendly and faster over time.
Q. The city mandated me to remove two trees at the tree line because of the ash tree bug problem. Unfortunately, removing both trees is too expensive for me. Arborists from the area are asking about $1,000 per tree. The only help the city is offering is to do the job instead of the arborists, but the city will charge me two times the money the contractors asked me. I was wondering if the city could offer to the people of South Bend a better, more competitive deal regarding tree removal.
A. According to the South Bend municipal code, every owner of real estate within the city shall remove or trim any tree or shrub or any part thereof located on such real estate or in the tree and lawn area in front of such real estate which may be dead, diseased, unsightly, in a condition which is injurious or detrimental to the public health and safety or the growth of adjacent trees or which may project over the public street on which such real estate abuts in such manner as to obstruct the free passage of pedestrians and vehicular traffic on such public streets.
The invasion of the emerald ash borer is very unfortunate for the landscape and greening of the city. The Forestry Department is working hard to remove thousands of infested trees throughout the city. In addition to private tree removal service, the department will take monthly payments of $25.
The Forestry Department will work with any homeowners seeking assistance with tree removal and can be reached at 574-299-4766. Thank you for sharing your concern.
Q. Do you know what is going on at the former Howard Johnson Hotel site on the north side of town?
A. Thank you for your question about this development. It's my understanding that a developer from Ohio is looking to build a multiunit apartment complex on the land that had been the former Howard Johnson's hotel. I believe they are planning to put in about 300 units. To clarify, the site is in Roseland, not South Bend, but the complex will be served by city utilities.
The project was granted approval by the town of Roseland, which has local control for zoning and planning, but it was not until recently that the joint South Bend-St. Joseph County Building Department issued a permit for this project.
Please submit questions for South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg to email@example.com.

Many of the more than 1,000 bills pending around the country would nullify the effect of any federal ban on firearms, assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
And nationwide, a CNN/ORC International poll out Monday suggested that support for major restrictions on guns may be fading three months after the Newtown killings. While a majority of Americans favored major restrictions on guns or an outright ban in the immediate aftermath of that massacre, support for gun control has fallen to 43% since that December tragedy, the poll found.

The Buena Vista wrestling team placed four individuals during the 2012 Quality Hotel Open on Saturday, hosted by Hastings College (Neb.).
Junior Brian Broll was the lone champion for the Beavers, dropping down for the first time this season and competing at 184 pounds.
"Brian did a great job of staying in good position today," said BVU head coach Sevond Cole. "He stayed calm and poised in some tough matches. You would never have guessed that this was his first time down to 184. He had a lot of energy and scored a lot of points in the third period."
Fellow junior Austin Mogg took runner-up honors at 125 pounds.
"Austin really looked good today," Cole said. "While he didn't win the tournament, he did find the level of intensity that he needs to compete at. Every minute of every match he was looking to gain the upper hand."
Joe Klinkel and Hunter St. John also placed for BVU, taking fourth and fifth places, respectively.
"Joe was really close to finding himself in the finals of this tournament," added Cole. "He has really worked on his riding skills this year and today it really paid off. He was able to score some valuable points on top giving him the edge in many of his matches today.
Hunter wrestled with a lot of courage today. Not only did he wrestle well after dropping down a weight class but he battled back to win his last match after injuring his shoulder."
Complete results of the Open are not currently available and will be posted to this story when they do.
Buena Vista will return to action on Tuesday night when the team wrestles the first of two home duals this week, hosting Briar Cliff University in a 7:00pm match-up.

"Rigtig godt til prisen"Anmeldt af en Hotels.com-gæst d. 27. aug 2012
Det var det billigste hotel på ferien, men vi blev positivt overraskede. Meget fint til prisen, og beliggenheden er god i forhold til ture ud i Catskill Mountains. God service, fx i forbindelse med at få åbnet Safe-boksen på værelset, som den forrige gæst havde låst. Også godt som transithotel, da det ligger lige ved afkørslen til Interstate mod New York.

"not bad"
No surprises here-it's decent. I choose it because it has smoking rooms. Other than that, it's clean. The town of NP is about 3 miles down the road, but some stores are closer.Ægte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse
"Close to downtown"
Easy to find minus the highway sign pointing in the wrong direction. Close to downtown, which would have made it great if you were there for the apple fest. Traffic was bad during that weekend, but it kept moving, so it wasn't too bothersome as long as you left enough time to get where you were going.

"Some nights were too expensive."
I'm an artist, and this hotel is very convenient for me when I sell at the art shows held at the county fairgrounds. It's clean and the rooms are fine. However, the room rate for Saturday was twice as much as the rates for Friday and Sunday. The high cost really cuts into my meager profits. I will probably stay here again, but only if I can't find a […] better deal in the area. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse

"Not bad for the price"
We stayed overnight when dropping our son off to SUNY. This is the hotel we normally stay at when in town. It's a decent, 1- to 2-star hotel. While we normally have good luck here, this last stay wasn't up to par. We had a smoking room (there were no non-smoking rooms available) and the smell permeated EVERYTHING. I had to wash the unworn clothes in […] my suitcase because the smoke smell clung to them. The beds were incredibly mushy, and worst of all, the air conditioner did not work. We had to take the fan that we'd packed for our son's dorm room out of the car and bring it to the room because it was so stuffy. That said, the bathroom was clean, the room was clean, and the staff is very friendly. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse

"Clean and Convenient Motel"
We stopped for one night on our way top Cooperstown. Hotel was fine, right off thuway and about one mile drive into town. The only issue I had was that the breakfast stopped at 9:00 (or 9:30) I showed up five minutes late and the coffee was already taken away. No biggie but thought that was too early on a Sunday morning to stop free breakfast.Ægte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse
"Close to SUNY New Paltz"
The hotel is the better choice among all motels in the area but it had a strong smell of cigarette smoke in the halls and in our no smoking room. The air conditioner was loud and did not work well. The people at the front desk were friendly.Ægte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse
"Nice Location"
I did not expect anything super from this motel, however its location beats all. It is close to everything: downtown shops, restaurants, pharmacy, etc. The air-conditioner in the room is very noisy, so I did not get a good night's sleep. The breakfast is plain, but you cannot complain that much cause it is a continental breakfast anyway. Overall, okay […] stay. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse

The coffee at breakfast was decent at least. The location was poor, but unfortunately New Paltz doesn't have the best located places to stay.Ægte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse
"A little bang for the bucks"

"Affordable but no-frills"
We stayed here for two nights in May 2013. The desk staff were pleasant, and the motel is well maintained. But our room was pretty small, the entrance and bathroom reeked of smoke (in a non-smoking room), the 'Continental breakfast' was very low-end, and 20 minutes before checkout time, we got a visit to remind us we needed to get out.

"Close to Town of New Paltz and Minnewaska SP"
The room was very clean, the bed comfortable, and though the location was near the highway, sound barriers rendered it quiet. The registration clerk was unwelcoming and robotic as if she is unaware that her kindness and consideration can make a big difference. If you would like more than a bowl of cereal, a slice of bread, and coffee for breakfast, […] consider one of the many local eateries nearby. Besides the unfriendliness, this is a good basic place to stay to be near New Paltz and hike at Minnewaska State Park. Læs mereÆgte Hotels.com-gæsteanmeldelse

Is it true that artificial nails will eventually weaken my natural nails?
You may experience some thinning of your natural nails once the artificial nails are removed. Prolonged wear of artificial nails can cause fungus to breed. Your natural nails eventually lose strength that cannot be regained. You should leave artificial nails for special occasions, not for everyday wear. If you must have artificial nails, give them a break every three months. This will allow your natural nails to restore their resilience and strength.
My toenails have turned yellow. Why?
If you've noticed discoloration in your nails, it could be due to old nail polish. The old nail polish could have stained the nail plate by being left on for a long time. If the discoloration continues, consult with your doctor; it could possibly be a fungus or a health-related problem. For healthy nails, it is very important to maintain a healthy diet. Calcium is an essential nutrient for your nails, and it can be found in milk, yogurt, cheese and broccoli.
I've heard that cold water dries your nails faster. Is this true?
It won't completely dry your nails, but it can certainly help. Fill a bowl with water, add some ice cubes, and then dip your fingernails into the water several times for up to a minute, removing your fingers repeatedly to prevent frostbite. It is the cold temperature of the water that helps seal in the polish chemicals and harden the lacquer.
I really can't afford to go to the salon every week, but I want my nails to look pretty. How can I apply the polish so that it doesn't look lumpy?
This problem is caused by uneven polish application. The trick is to apply thin layers of polish. Remember - the nail polish brush is designed to hold a lot. To apply, lightly dip the brush into the bottle. As you pull it out, wipe the excess polish on the inside of the bottle's rim. Paint the nails accordingly.

Considerable work, planning has gone into upgrades of University of Utah's athletic facilities
SALT LAKE CITY — Competition isn't the only upgrade that has accompanied the University of Utah's move to the Pac-12. Since joining the conference in 2011, there have been plenty of physical changes as well — and more changes, a lot more, are on the way.
In July, work will be complete on a new $32 million football and sports medicine facility. Construction is also wrapping up on a $4.5 million softball complex.
Last week, things got rolling on a $24 million men's and women's basketball training and sports performance center when an architect was hired. The project is expected to be complete by the spring of 2015 and will likely be done simultaneously with renovations to the Huntsman Center.
Upgrades to the 15-year-old Dumke Gymnastics Center are already under way and plans are being finalized for an outdoor tennis facility, a ski building and a throws area for track and field. Expansion of the Burbidge Academic Center is also on the list of immediate plans.
Other projects on the books include renovating the Ute Natatorium (building 50-meter lanes), possible soccer field relocation or drainage upgrades to the current facility, a potential on-campus baseball stadium and an indoor driving range for the golf team.
"Those are some of our plans that we have to make it happen for the Utes," said Utah Athletics Director Chris Hill. " ... Almost every sport needs to upgrade some things. Most of them have the underpinnings of a good start or a good location."
Hill is hopeful that the major projects will be completed in the next two-to-three years — including fundraising. Although the football and basketball projects have bonds, they were issued with the understanding that half the money would be raised. Neither is covered yet, though the football center is about $2 million away from reaching its goal of $16 million. The basketball facility is about one-third of the way toward its target of $12 million.
Pac-12 funds are providing a big boost. Utah's membership agreement calls for a 50 percent share in 2012-13; a boost to 75 percent in 2013-14; and a full portion beginning in 2014-15. The main revenue streams (television money and shared distribution from the BCS and conference championships) will add approximately $9.9 million to the coffers in 2012-13; $14.5 million in 2013-14; and $23.3 million in 2014-15. Annual increases of approximately 4 percent are expected thereafter.
"The Pac-12 money has allowed us to essentially make the projects Pac-12 caliber rather than from our previous league, which has caused an increase in prices," Hill said. "But we've been able to budget some of that money so we could help fund these projects over the next 10 years. It's the first time we've been in this position."
Hill noted that Pac-12 money won't cover everything when is comes to facilities. There is a big variable to consider when it comes to being competitive.
"We're fortunate enough to be able to match some of it with our Pac-12 money, but our operating budget is way behind so we can't steal from our operating budget," Hill explained. "We want to maintain good coaches. We want to have scholarships paid for. We need to travel. All those things are upgraded. We've had to add some staff to keep up with social media expectations and academic expectations."
The cost of doing business has risen significantly since Utah moved from the Mountain West Conference on July 1, 2011.
"People think we don't need the money to make our program up to Pac-12 quality and we do," Hill said. "We're still not going to catch up with our operating budget past a bunch of people, but we're going to get past some. We're going to do a good job with our money and we're going to be smart."

Court May Order Google to Censor 'Torrent,' 'RapidShare' and 'Megaupload'
Google has suffered a setback in its case against the music industry group SNEP. Last week the French Supreme Court ruled that Google can be required to censor the search terms 'Torrent', 'RapidShare' and 'Megaupload' from its Instant and Autocomplete services. The court argued that Google indirectly facilitates copyright infringement by failing to filter these terms. The case is now going to the Appeals Court for a final decision.
Early 2010 the French music industry group SNEP initiated legal action against Google in an attempt to force the search giant to filter certain terms from its "Instant" and "Autocomplete" features.
SNEP argued that when users enter the name of popular artists into the search box, Google often adds piracy related keywords including 'torrent', 'RapidShare' and 'MegaUpload'.
According to the music group this means that Google is facilitating piracy, and it asked the court to order Google to censor the three search terms in question.
After SNEP lost the case in two lower courts, it took the matter to the Supreme Court which decided in favor of the music group last week. The Supreme Court ruled that keyword filters are an appropriate measure to curb online piracy.
While the Court recognizes that Google is not accountable for any of the infringements that take place on other websites, it says that Google does have a responsibility to make it more difficult for the public to "discover" unauthorized content.
By filtering these search terms, Google helps to prevent future infringements, the Court noted.
The Supreme Court based its verdict on Article 336-2 of the Intellectual Property code, a provision which allows courts to take almost any emergency measure to protect rightsholders. The same article is being relied on in a separate case brought by the French movie and TV industry in which ISPs and search engines are being asked to block several popular streaming sites.
Following its ruling the Supreme Court sent the case back to the Court of Appeal for a final decision.
For Google, fighting the French case is a matter of principle. The search engine has already been filtering "piracy-related" terms from its 'Autocomplete' and 'Instant' services for more than a year, worldwide. Google users searching for terms like "torrent" and "RapidShare" will notice that no suggestions or search results appear before they type in the full word.
While Google hasn't removed any content from its search results, Google's measures do indeed lead to fewer searches for the terms that are censored.
We assume that Google is nevertheless fighting the decision to keep control over what they choose to censor. If the case is decided against them, they can expect more requests for keywords to be added to the filter, or even entire websites.

28-year-old Kristopher Cook is being charged with two counts of fraud over $5,000 and is accused of raising more than $7,500 under false pretenses that he was suffering from brain cancer.
Credits: Brendan Miller/Special to the Calgary Sun/QMI Agency
CALGARY — The fraud suspect wanted for allegedly faking cancer to scam a fundraiser out of thousands of dollars arrived back in Calgary Saturday to be formally charged.
Kristopher Nicholas Cook, 28, who was wanted on a warrant for fraud, was arrested Tuesday in Victoria after police in Calgary were tipped off to his location and informed their counterparts in that city.
He returned to Calgary on a charter plane Saturday afternoon and was taken by Alberta sheriffs to Calgary police to be processed on the warrant.
Cook faces two counts of fraud over $5,000 and the accusation of raising more than $7,500 under false pretenses at a July 8, 2011, benefit held at Calgary's Broken City bar.
The fundraiser called "Kristopher C's Cancer Smasher Benefit Bash" was put on by members of the local music scene who wanted to help raise money for Cook to treat his brain cancer he allegedly told them he had.
Insp. Paul Stacey said it was a success story for police to be able to track down their suspect and have him arrested in Victoria.
"Obviously it caught the public's eye and it's one of those that undermines the true victims of cancer and the like and shakes people's faith," he said.
Friends and organizers of the benefit became skeptical and suspicious and wondered whether the man had been diagnosed with the illness at all. Some said he wouldn't let anyone accompany him to medical appointments and some reported seeing him with a new MacBook Pro the day after the event.
A fraud investigator previously told QMI Agency there was no trace of the suspect being a patient at a local hospital.
Cook also allegedly claimed to have had a sister who died of the same cancer he had, but his dad confirmed to QMI his son had no siblings.
Police launched an investigation and eventually issued the warrant.
Friends and organizers of the event have applauded police's efforts to investigate Cook and track him down, and give credit to the people who spread the story over social media.
The case has been likened to one in Ontario where Ashley Kirilow received 10 months house arrest and 100 hours community service for shaving her head and lying about having the disease in order to solicit donations and hold fundraising events.
