The highest court in the country upheld most of the Affordable Care Act in June. But everybody knew it was only an overture.
The law "will fall in November by a vote of the American people," Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant pledged that day, speaking for many other Republicans. Democrats were more reluctant to paint the election as a referendum on what even they came to call "Obamacare." But privately they admitted the stakes.
A victory for President Barack Obama today would seal the health act's future and continue its myriad attempts at reform that even Republicans admit would be difficult or impossible to reverse.
"This election will determine whether Americans have health care they can afford or they are left on their own and at the mercy of the insurance companies," said Ethan Rome, executive director of the pro-reform Health Care for America Now. "It's the private market and the Wild West versus Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid."
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney repeatedly pledged to "repeal and replace" the health act, which substantially increases medical coverage via state insurance exchanges and an expansion of the Medicaid program for the poor. Conservatives call the health act an unaffordable government grab into the economy and individuals' lives.
"Obamacare fundamentally changes the relations between citizens and their government," said Grace-Marie Turner, president of the Galen Institute, which promotes health care choice and competition. "It really undermines freedom. The American people understand that."
If Romney wins and Republicans gain control of the Senate, "one of the principal casualties is going to be something like 30 million people who could gain coverage under the act," said Edward Howard, executive vice president at the Alliance for Health Reform, a nonpartisan research group. "The Affordable Care Act is certainly at risk if you're interested in preserving it."
An Obama win would immediately highlight the challenge of opening subsidized, online insurance marketplaces on time by 2014. Both the administration and most states are deemed to be behind schedule.
Bryant and numerous other Republican governors, assuming or hoping Obama will be rejected, have refused to implement the health law. Meanwhile the Department of Health and Human Services hasn't finalized potentially controversial rules for opening federally-run exchanges in the absence of state cooperation.
Few doubt that most Republican governors, if their states are forced to have exchanges, will want to run them locally. Nor is there much argument about whether most Republican states will eventually accept the health law's optional Medicaid expansion that is financed primarily with federal dollars.
"Except for the 'hell no, we won't go' governors, most of the other ones are going to take a really hard look at this the morning after," said Len Nichols, director of the Center for Health Policy Research and Ethics at George Mason University. "And the hospital association is going to be in their face pretty quick. Because they want the coverage."
But an Obama victory won't guarantee that the health law would be implemented as envisioned. If the president wins reelection but Republicans gain control of the Senate, he would be on "an island," surrounded by "a coalition arrayed against Obamacare," said Michael Franc, vice president for government studies at the Heritage Foundation.
Congress could delay appropriating money to implement the law, he said. A Republican takeover of the Senate would presumably be accompanied by Republican gains in the states, where governors and legislatures could also put up road blocks.
Even if Obama wins and Democrats retain the Senate, the administration could reduce the subsidies supporting the insurance exchanges or agree to ditch a tax on medical devices as part of a bargain with Republicans to reduce the deficit. Or a second Obama administration might agree to reduce the act's Medicaid expansion as a budget compromise, giving states more room to design their own, smaller plans.
"The Supreme Court's decision to make the Medicaid expansion optional effectively gives the side that says, 'We're going to save money' a way to do it without Obama losing face," Nichols said.
A President-elect Romney would immediately be pressured to keep parts of the health law and be specific about what he would replace it with. He has said he supports insurers allowing young adults to stay on their parents' plans to age 26, but it's unclear whether he would keep the Affordable Care Act's compulsion to make health plans do so.
Analysts expect a President Romney would promote high-risk pools for the uninsured, interstate insurance sales to fuel competition and greater use of "consumer-directed" plans in which high deductibles prompt patients to pay more attention to what care costs.
Romney couldn't repeal the health law alone. He needs a Republican Senate to try to start with a clean slate. Even then repeal efforts would be subject to filibuster by Democrats and restrictions on passing legislation via reconciliation, which doesn't require the supermajority needed to end a filibuster.

Students, get ready to show off your talents: the Student Art Contest is back!
Blizzard Entertainment's university relations and World of Warcraft development teams are proud to present the third annual Blizzard Student Art Contest! We're calling on college and university students to submit original artwork or animations that would be a great fit for World of Warcraft. This year's contest is even better than ever as we've thrown in additional categories for you to wow us in (pun intended). Check out the rules and information below....
Using your creativity and ability to work within the World of Warcraft art style, create a small environment diorama that would fit well in the game world. Your quest: Concept, model, and texture an environment piece that you could imagine stumbling upon during your travels across Kalimdor, the Eastern Kingdoms, Outland, Northrend, or Pandaria.
Required elements are trees, rocks, grass, and props, plus a small structure (such as a shrine).
Your final piece should have a structure similar to the example provided below. We're looking for lower poly-count models (e.g.: around 1,500 polys for a mature sized tree), so keep that in mind when creating your environment.Sample submission - Click to enlarge
Using your creativity and ability to work within the World of Warcraft art style, concept, model, and texture a non-player character (NPC) or creature that you could imagine roaming the plains of Durotar, exploring the depths of Deepholm, or just sitting in the Pig and Whistle Tavern knocking back a mug o' Thistle Tea.
Required elements are the character or creature, along with some sort of clothing or armor. Feel free to go further by adding weapons or other accessories.
The final piece should have a structure similar to the example provided below. Stay within a budget of 6,000 polys with one 1024x1024 texture for the finished character.Sample submission - Click to enlarge
Using your creativity and ability to work within the World of Warcraft art style, concept, model, and texture a main hand weapon with a complimentary offhand weapon/shield/item. It could be the pairing of the "Deadly sword of Castle AHHHH" and a "Jabberwock Scale Shield," the "Repentant Crusader Mace" and a "Tome of Righteousness," or even the "Beguilers Ebonwood Staff" and an "Obfuscating Eye of Yogg-saron." Let Azeroth be your guide and pull from the many established cultures, encounters, and legends that exist in World of Warcraft.
Required elements are the main hand weapon, along with its matching offhand item, but feel free to go further by adding a player or creature wielding your creations.
The final piece should have a structure similar to the example provided below. The main hand weapon and the offhand item each have a budget of 1,000 triangles and one 512x512 texture.Sample submission - Click to enlarge
Keeping in mind and working within the World of Warcraft art style, select a class from the game and create either a battle scene or flavor animation. A battle scene could be any type of combat situation. Think of it as a pitch for a new player class. Your scene could be as epic as a final boss fight, or something more comical like warding off a group of feisty Murlocs. The flavor animation piece is all about personality. It could be a group of characters have a good time hoisting back pints of ale or coming home after winning a PVP match. Feel free to interpret these how you wish. Be as creative as possible, but don't forget to watch your weight, timing, strong poses, and arcs!
Required elements include one cycled animation in a stand or combat ready pose. Make sure animations return to the same start position and feel free to add additional models or weapons.
The final piece should be animated in 30 frames per second and in meters. Please avoid camera shakes and blurs as they tend to hide fundamentals that we look for.
In short, show us something we've never seen before but that still fits within World of Warcraft. You can see previous winner submissions here and here.
All entries must be received by January 31, 2014. Please note that only current college and university students are eligible to win. Students may enter more than one contest category if they so desire.
Grand prize winners will be chosen by the World of Warcraft art team, and will receive the following epic prizes:

I'm pretty well competent in doing plumbing, electrical, construction, you name it. Bought the faucet as price wise it looked a great buy compared to the local home stores as the price was about the same as a standard name faucet set. Upon arrival the faucet is impressive. The lower section is quite heavy and looks well made. The sprayer retainer has a couple of set screws to hold in a plastic guide for the thing to pivot on. The upper portion is a heavy chrome spring (chrome finish faucet) with a standard looking flex hose run in the middle of it. The sprayer head is very heavy with a good feel to the handle and has a loop that flips over the top of the handle to hold the sprayer on if you want to wash veg etc. without having to hold the handle down to get the spray. Whole thing is very commercial looking. The little flip handle at the end of the faucet allows you to divert the water. You can have both the sprayer and the faucet going at the same time or you can turn the little handle piece at the end of the faucet and gradually turn the water off on the faucet side so only the sprayer works. Flow wise it seems plenty to me. We have good water pressure in our home so don't know if that makes a difference, but the sprayer and faucet run a good jet of water that seems plenty powerful for what we need. Any more and I would think that the water would be hitting whatever you are spraying and splashing everywhere. Still might as it is now. Main control is the handle on the side down low. With the handle tilted out from the faucet the water turns on. Takes a bit of getting used to not to pull it too far and have the water full on. Does not take much range of motion to do. Feels solid and not flimsy. Straight up is cold and if you turn the handle towards you is hot. Turns (going off memory now) approx 90 degrees from straight up. So, worked well for us as we were concerned with the range of motion of some faucets we looked at and felt they would hit the back splash and so we'd have to turn the control more towards the sink to clear. Not a problem with this one as the range of motion puts all action out toward the sink. Hope that makes sense. Both the facet spout and sprayer both pivot so you can put the water where you need. Issues. Not been in that long so longevity I don't feel I can comment on. We felt, for the price, we could install it, use it and if it had a problem that was not in warranty then we were not out any more than a regular faucet. Looked at a Kohler that was approx the same as this one (had a arched tube instead of a spring and a standard looking pull out sprayer hose with a really nice head on it) that was $1000! Felt this was quite a bargain then! Instructions. I'm pretty handy. The instructions are a little vague. Connection of the hot and cold lines - when they are talking about left and right on connection lay the faucet assembly down with the main controller facing the right. The hose connections are angled, but one is more to the left than the other and this is how I hooked it and it works correctly. Turn to the red position on the main controller and the hot water comes on. There are two rubber washers in the kit. Might have missed where they go as all you get is an expaneded view picture, but looked to see and did not really see where they go. I finally (and perhaps not correctly) put one on the connection of the flex pipe with the spring around it to the main unit as it looked like it needed some seal there. Also, maybe need to take a better look, but could not decide which way the spray retainer should be sitting. The retainer is cupped on one side and flat on the other. With it installed with the flat surface up the connection for the spring hose is easy to get too, but then the spring just slides around and can twist at an angle. With it flipped the other way with the cup part up the hose connection is pretty difficult to get in and tighten, but the spring then sits in the cup and is held in place. That is how we have it installed now. Last is a comment on mounting. Instructions are clear enough, but it would have been nice to have something that looked a little more sturdy. Perhaps a threaded collar made on to the base, in a diameter to fit a standard faucet hole, that would slide through the sink or counter and then a retaining washer and nut that could be tightened on so that you had a wider load spread and perhaps less chance of movement within the mount hole. The soap dispenser we bought looks more sturdy of a mount. What the faucet comes with is a threaded hole at the bottom that a 3/8 or so stud mounts in. This and the hoses slip through the hole and then a horseshoe metal retainer (to allow the hoses to pass through) and a rubber seal are what retains everything. You just tighten a small 7/16 wrench nut on it. With the weight of this thing it just seems like it could have been designed more stable. I tightened it as much as I dare (mounting in silestone counter) and it does not move or wabble, but wonder about maybe having to go back in down the road to retighten. Just seems a flimsy mount compared to what it could be. Might be fine though. Hose connections - simple enough, they screw to your hot and cold pipe connections. Only issue I had was the flex lines that come with the faucet were too short. Had to go buy some hoses to extend the length to reach the lines. Guess last word of caution is that this thing is HEAVY! If you are mounting to a sink itself and the gauge is not thick enough you may have issues. Nothing to support this, but just a feeling. Hope that helps. NOTE: so far I'd recommend, but again has not been in long so no longevity comment. Feels pretty sturdy, metal for the spray head, metal base etc. Looks great for the price.
OMG, this thing is fantastic! I saw one just like it for $3,200 at a designer showroom. Then I saw this and read alll the positive reviews so I bought it. It came two days later! This faucet was heavy and quality just like the one in the showroom. I had a plumber install since I saved so much on the purchase and he was super impressed with the quality. Everything works great and the water pressure seems double my old one. My wife loves it and it looks fantastic in our super modern house. Maybe the best on-line purchase I have made.
Faucet appears to be already assembled however the installation instructions direct you to take it appart. Even more frustrating is that in the instructions they refer to 'part numbers and part names' but when you look at the drawing, the part numbers do not match up to the part names in the directions. Its almost as though i got installation instructions for another faucet but i didn't. They are the correct. I am thinking of just installing it with common sence but the errors in the installation instructions makes me nervous. It should be a very easy installation as there is only the faucet, 2 hoses and a few washers to install. So far i am not impressed. Also, when i squeeze the sprayer, it squeeks and makes a sound as tho something inside is scratching against the chrome. The faucet seems like a '2nd' or one that didn't pass quality control. My sister has the $1000.00 version of this faucet and the difference is obvious to me. I guess you really do get what you pay for.
altho i have had so many compliments to the look of this faucet i find that the sprayer has a constant leak. i havent taken it apart to see if there is a gasket i can replace, for the price a leak isnt accecptable.
we have only been using it for 2 months and the spring is starting to fall. It looks awkward and doesn't hold the sprayer in place. small black o ring that is one the handsprayer where it is hooked into the rest comes lose everytime you take it in and out and it makes it hard to slip it in and out.
We bought this over two years ago and just sold our house. No complaints from us and a ton of compliments from our friends. We are in the process of building a new house and we just ordered one for the new kitchen.
I am writing this with the kaveat that I haven't installed it yet. I am going through a kitchen remodel. This product showed up and was very well made, heafty, and nicely packaged. I am having it installed in a few months, but it was exactly as represented on the site. Looking forward to using in my new kitchen.
Love this faucet! We have had it for three months and are so happy with our purchase. It looks amazing and makes work at the sink a pleasure. I wasn't sure if this would be too big and am glad to tell you, it's not! It's the right proportion and love all that it can do. Great purchase! Thank you Overstock
The first and most obvious thing about this faucet is that it's huge. It towers over the sink. Didn't realize how high it would stand over the sink when we bought it. Having said that everything else is great about it. The finish is perfect (we bought the chrome version) and it feels solid and heavy but not industrial. It matches wonderfully with our stainless steel apron sink. Having the dual faucet is an interesting feature but kind of redundant. The thin handle that turns the water on and off has already loosened after a few weeks of use. This is not a big deal as a quick twist tightens it.
short pot filler spout, weak pre-rinse the pre-rinse has just a plastic disc diffusing the water from the hose, there is practically very little to no water pressure provided from it it is weaker than virtually all of the kitchen faucet sprayer (home use) out there, weaker than even those little plastic ones in the 3rd hole of your sink or those pull out handles. The water pressure at my sink is fine, the faucet that was replaced by the Kraus had a lot more pressure (atleast 3 times more) than the Kraus's pre-rinse sprayer. I gave my feedback to the manufacturer a while back, all they did was to tell me my expectations are wrong; instead of embracing customer feedback for future product development and improvement I also noticed that the black plastic disc that diffuses the water into "rainfall" style in the pre-rinse sprayer is removable so I inquired about if they will ever design one with less holes, and smaller holes, thus creating more pressure. Again, they had no idea what I was talking about and basically told me to go away... The customer service department of Kraus lacks training, courtesy, or any business sense of how customer service should be. They are also very detached from knowing their own products. I dont believe I will be buying a Kraus product anymore. Nothing but a made-in-china brand with a German name that has nothing to do with european products.

There is no deed more indicative of blossoming love than one person's offer to help another person carry something heavy. You might think this innocuous act of kindness to be a simple suggestion of general good will residing in the soul of the perpetrator, but there is something much stronger at work. The below exclusive clip from the newest Nicholas Sparks adaptation Safe Haven shows the power of "Can I give you a hand with that?" as one of the seedlings that is destined to sprout into a floral romance between stars Julianne Hough and Josh Duhamel.
A newcomer to the waterside down of Southport, N.C., Katie (Hough) forms a bond with longtime resident Alex (Duhamel). Both anchored to loneliness by tumultuous emotional pasts, Katie and Alex seem see in one another something they haven't been able to find in some time: true friendship, and, possibly, true love. Just remember to lift with your knees!

As I gazed on his face as it slowly settled to its dark, weird aspect, I was . ready to give crede^ji^o-.- those stories bruited around among the students of ■ some strange, supernatural gifts with .which Carl Yon Arnheim was endowed. ;",I had-often met him; and, from the t first acquaintance he had somehow attached himself to me. * ' ■■■—■■•» Gn being asked why, by some one, he ' replied that his and'my own destinies > were united; that I would be necessary to "him some time in the future. The persons he alluded to in. his- .^ question to'me'were known to both. Of •ns. Baron Yon -——' was a frank* ifree- Jheai ted German nobleman:- His . daughter^ Eena,. -as she wascalledj was, the .most beautiful creature r.eyersaw.^ ■Not.only had*the beauty jatfaagte^j # : /-*- Tm<T evidenl^touched the heart of the" somber, pale-faced German student, Carl Yon Arnheim. I do not know whether the thought of my being attached to Eena ever troubled him. B[e seemed confident, and feared no rival. But, as I watched him that night, he had-a strange look of fierce determination on ids face. Presently he turned towards me, and fixed his eyes on mine. It was impossible to avoid his glance ; a lurid light seemed playing in the very depths of his eyes. I could not move nor speak. Another moment and his hands were moving before me, and I knew" that Carl was a* mesmerist, and that I was under h%S*35itrol. Soon I lost all conscious/Css, and I awoke to what, appeared a new state of existence, I saw Carl still looking at what was myself; but from which, in some manner, I was separated. I had often rea'd of the duality of our existence; but never comprehended its meaning so clearly before. Here was I looking on a living and breathing body, from which the soul, the Ego of metaphysicians, was absent. Carl still continued to gaze fixedly at my body, then, though he spoke not, I knew he was addressing me. There ,was.no word uttered; but still the horrible purport of his meaning was conveyed to me, the more distinctly as we were conversing spirit with spirit. "Knowing by his diabolical arts that I had won the love of the Lady Eena, he was conjuring my soul from its body, which his own soul was to enter, while I was to dwell the inhabitant of his body. I could not struggle; I could only submit. In this way he was to win the Lady Eena, and I was to lose her forever. Again I lost consciousness; and when I came to myself I found the transformation complete, and Carl had departed. I was sitting alone by the fire of the German inn in the body of Carl Yon ■Arnheim! I arose to leave. The little innkeeper stepped up briskly, and handed me his bill. "The gentleman, your friend, said that you would settle this little account, Herr Yon Arnheim," said he, handing me a slip of paper. Yes; henceforth I was to be Carl Yon Arnheim, and he was to be myself, I paid the bill, and then departed. And now, as I came Out in the cold, frosty air, the terrible truth daAvned upon my mind for the first time in its awful reality.-•' "What was I to do? Where was I to go? Would it not be worse than madness to try and retain the love of Eena in my present guise! Should I attempt that, Carl Yon Arnheim, in his fiew personality, would forestall me by declaring me a -madman, and Eena would believe him. I staggered under the weight of my misery. All night I roamed the streets, caring not whither I went. In the morning some of the students passed by. "l"There goes that queer, unfathomable genius, Carl Yon Arnheim," I heard them say. "What in the world has he been doing?" "Beading the stars, perhaps, all night." No one took any notice of my haggard aspect. -It was like Carl to look pale and haggard. I turned a corner, and there a sight met my eyes before which I recoiled in horror. I saw Carl, as "myself, glide swiftly past in the sleigh of Baron Yon —-—. The latter rushed past; and I staggered and fell— and then knew no more. When I recovered my senses I found myself in Carl'sroom. I recognized it, for I had been there once or twice before at his invitation. A physician and one or two students were standing be-, side the bed where I lay. I opened my eyes and thanked them for their kindness. Again tne horrid reality of my condition burst upon me, and I nearly fainted again.- Eallying my strength, I told them to leave me, as I wished to be alone. The physician gave them a sign, and all went out. . I lay for some moments longer, trying to reflect upon my situation. At length I rose up and. paced the room. A desire for vengeance had seized upon me. A thousand schemes sug: gested themselves to me by which I could obtain satisfaction, but none of them seemed to content my morbid imagination. I looked about the room. In one comer I espied a large, iron- bound chest, which Carl was always particular never to open in my presence. A thought struck me. Why might not this chest contain secrets which it woulcLbe.of importance for me to know ? But how to get into it! I hesitated a moment. Carl must have carried the key which unlocked it in his pocket. I felt for the key. Sure enough, there was a large one there. * Itook it out and tried the lock. It yielded, and I opened the chest. ■' There was nothing in it—except some chemicals, several old, wrinkled and yellow parchments, and, in a small box by itself, an amber ring. I had a presentiment that, with these means, I was to work my deliverance.. I examined the manuscripts; large rolls, they were, filled with diagrams and words.in the Latin language. Being* familiar with the latter, I was at no loss, to understand. their meaning. What! Had the day of magic returned? Here were directions for calling the powers of darkness to the aid of' humanity;* the hidden mysteries of nature 'revealed and examined; and * dissertations or a metaphysical-character on tlie mind of man, and its-unknown affinities with the world jof, spirits. Ali was apparently written long- ago—-it- might be centuries. I sp£ all day studying the niysterious writings. Night came, and, ^after-obtaining a Httle-nourishment fov tlie body tha^'^M miBie for the time )?e- iUg, I lit a lamp, and, locking the door, still' continuedriioii_p^e;gyer those woh? derfti|?^matouscripte^^^i^^tyfere^revealiiig* mankind*' irresistible. •- " - * All '"that'wasdemanded for* the possessor of this- -secret was a peculiar organization. With the body of Carl Yon Aruheim I, of course, had obtained his temperament and facility to use these powers. I determined to make myself master of them—and then—let the villain look to himself. He had forfeited all his power by taking upon him my organization, so great had been his love for the beautiful Lady Eena. Little did he think that I would act with my inheritance asi intended. My heart beat with hope. Already I seemed to grasp revenge. With that amber ring, and the knowledge of its wonderful properties made known to me by these old manuscripts, I would bring him down—down to the very lowest pit of misery. Over the way was the mansion of the Baron, the father of Eena. It was lit up with a thousand brilliant lights. I heard the sound of music and dancing. As I looked from the window I saw pass- ing'by the opposite window, and inside the gorgeous drawing-room, Eena and Carl, arm in arm. I did not stagger that time. I smiled with secret exultation. Going to my table I unrolled a~ manuscript and read: "The odic fluid is generated by wearing the amber ring on the third finger of the left-hand; and by the odic fluid matter and mind axe united. When odyle is withdrawn from the body the mind is free, and can be commanded.'" Then followed further directions ending with: ," Thus the amber ring, to him who knoweth its proper use, is, to a certain extent, all powerful.""' ***** /Days passed. By the aid of the ring Ikept myself informed of the movements of Carl. He was to be married in three days, which would be the day before Christmas. The. ceremony was to take place in the evening. My time was short, yet long enough for what I had to do. Day and night I studied and worked. My experiments were, with a few exceptions, successful. By the day before Christmas I was prepared. I had perfected myself in my art. I had no more need of the manuscripts-—no more need of the amber ring. I therefore, for reasons of my own, burned the whole—the manuscripts first—and then threw tl\,e amber ring into the blazing fire. A pale light started up; the whole room shook and gleamed as if of phosphorescent material. Then all was silent. I went to the window again and looked over the way. Could I have been mistaken ? It seemed to me that I saw, in the uncertain light of the moon, Carl Yon Arnheim raising his hands to heaven with a lopk-betokening the greatest fear. It was but a moment, and then he was- gone. My vengence should be a retribution. One hour before the time appointed for the marriage I was at the inn of which I spoke at the beginning of the story. I began the incantation which I knew would bring Carl, whether he wished or no, to my presence. Soon he came. There was a wild look -in his eyes, and he seemed overcome with terror. I made him sit where he had sat three jveeks;;before. Then, using the same mesmeric means he had used, reduced him to a state of insensibility. I then, taking from my pocket a viaicon- taining a-virulent poison which I knew would take deadly effect in the space of half an hour, swallowed its contents— and, .commanding the spirit of Carl to resuoieifcs original body, I- re-entered triumphantly for my vengeance was complete; the soul of Carl Yon Arnheim had gone into its former body, whence it was soon to be driven forever by the deadly poison I had en'ranced into his system. As I sprung from my seat, the surroundings, somehow, seemed, to be changed. I was still in the same room of the inn, and there before me sat Carl, fast asleep. The little keeper of the inn was bustling about as usual,* and before me seemed lying the veritable box I had seen burning a month before. I shook Carl. " What do you want?" said he, looking up. "What do I want?" said I, half reflectively. " I believe I've been asleep, and had a queer sort of dream—all about magic and mesmerism. This isn't Christmas eve, is it.?." "Christmas eve!" he echoed. "Why, Christmas won't be here for a month." " Let us go," said I. THE Sore Throat! recommends- th with honey of ro] be used as a'gar^ with sores'and ule mouth. Stings and '^AY, JANUARY 17,1879.

Maryland—In the Fifth district, Crane (Eep.) will contest the seat oi Henkle (Dem.) on the ground of fraud and interference with Supervisors. Massachusetts—In the Sixth district, Boynton (Nat.) will contest the seat of Loring (Eep.), alleging among other reasons that 413 votes for the latter did ..not specify the office to be filled. Lor- ing's plurality over Boynton was 113. Minnesota—In the Third district Donnelly (Dem. and Nat.) will .contest the seat * of Washburn (Eep.) on the grounds of "bribery, intimidation, violence, fraud, and corruption." Washburn's majority was 3,013. New York—In the Twenty:fif th district, J. M.. Wietipg (Nat. and Dem.) will contest the seat of Hiscock (Bep.), who was elected by 3,425, on grounds of alleged corruption and intimidation. North Carolina—In the First district, Yeates (Dem.) will probably contest the seat of-Martin (Bep.), the State Canvassers having declined to go behind the returns, which on their face gave Martin 51 majority. * In the Second, O'Hara (Eep.) will contest the seat of Kitchen (Dem.), claiming that his votes were illegally throwu out in Halifax, Edgecombe, Craven, and Lenoir counties, which sent up amended returns. Pennsylvania^—In the Twentieth, Curtin (Dem.) will contest tlut of Yo- cum (Nat. and Eep.), on the ground of fraud and bribery.. Yocum's majority was 92. There is a squbble over" the seat of Klotz (Dem.) in the Eleventh, whicB% claimed by Albright. The Canvassing Board split, but Klotz has filed, the judicially certified returns of all the counties with the Clerk of the House as a safeguard. They give him 95 majority.

This is the largest November balance in oiu* favor that has been noted since records have been kept, wliich is one of the dullest mouths of the year. The balance of trade in our favor for five months of the current fiscal year, com- menceing July 1, is $113,904,084, an increase of nearly 100 per cent, over the balance in our favor for the corresponding months of last year.

This shows the growth of our commerce in a single year, and returns for the calendar year of 1878, which are complete, with the exception of the last fifteen days in December, show that the balance of trade in favor of the United States will be nearly $350,000,000, more than $100,000,000 more than last year, nearly $200,000,000 more than 1876, more than $250,000,000 more than 1875, and $300,000,000 more than 1874, before which time the balance of trade ranged from $10,000,- 000 to $150,000,000 against the United States. The exportation of gold has almost entirely ceased, and there has been very little transatlantic movement of coin for the last two months. The statisticians of the treasury state that the year just closing has been the most prosperous, as far as 'foreign commerce is concerned, in the history of the United States. The Pestilent Sparrow.

It is now established among us, and no measures that can be practically adopted would ever rid us entirely of it, even were such riddance desirable. In the country the bird will at times become a grievous pest here, as it has been in Europe, and farmers, for self-protec- tionj will ever and anon have to systematically destroy it. I would, therefore, like to see if take its chances with our native birds, a thing which it is abundantly capable of doing, and corporations should not, in my judgment, encourage its undue multiplication by producing shelter and resting- places' beyond what the" bird may naturally find." The Meanest Man. An English bridegroom residing at Plymouth had a very eventful honeymoon. He quarreled with and thrashed his wife the second hour after marriage, thrashed her again at night, aftervclub- bing' the wedding guests out of the house, and on the second: day sold all his clothes, excepting his trousers, for rum, and wound uj in jail oil thelihird dajf, .

The fact that so many fish are dying off the coast of Florida, calls to mind the awful prediction of PSfof. -Knapp. Prom the juxtaposition of^btjri&M' planets to our earth, he predicts -tnat one-half of the population of the world, including men and all kinds of animals, and even vegetable life, will p^sh before or dur-:'; ing the year 1880/ \In a lecture delivered several years agOJ-he said that this desolation would commence by the fishes of the sea dying, ahd pestilence and famine occurring in. more southern latitudes.

The McCrarralian Claim. Senator Garland, of Arkansas, has prepared a bill by which it is hoped the famous McGarrahan case will be finally • dismissed from Congress, .where, without positive action, it seems destined to live forever. Senator Garland proposes to send the case to the Court of Claims, . with the right to appeal to the Supreme Court. His bill is in the interest of the United States, and provides that the Court of Claims shall also take into consideration the rights -.oi the Government in the case, since it is held by some excellent lawyers' that neither McGarrahan nor the New Idria Company have valid claims to the land in controversy, "His Mother "Above all things ih this world," said a youth who stands on the street corners for a living, "do I value the love of my -, dear, good mother."

Wien the moments of friendship are numbered,
*Hov oft it appears
That ths lave which, in laughter has slumbered
Arrows now in tears!
, >7a iraft'lends that have journeyed together
* long time, you and I;
Hiraugh sunshine and stormiest weather,
Sut the old year must die.
.And awhile in your hearts -will awaken
A bitter regret;
And the paths your feet have forsafcen
You cannot forget
Yet I pray you to mourn not my going,
Though we have been friends;
Wh slam I but one billow, whose flowing
Has touched shore, and ends?
Aud the tale of my joy and my sorrow
lives but as the trace
Of the waves, that the tides of the morrow
In turn shall efface.
Yet I leave you. as waves leave their treasures
Of coral and shell,
A gift, passing sorrows and pleasures,
Our friendship to tell.
I leave you the friendships, whose growing
Has been from my birth;
There as naught that the tide brings in flowing
Can equal their worth.
Por, as shells from the murmurs "of ocean
Steal echoes that last,
go in friendship is stored the emotion
Of years that are past.
Do you know my sweetheart, fir?
She has fled and gone away.
I've lost my love; pray tell me
Have you seen her pass to-day?
Dewy bluebells are her eyes;
Golden corn her wayy hair;
, Her cheeks ar e of the sweet blush-roses;
Have you seen this maiden fair?
White lilies are her graceful neck,
And her breath the eglantine;
Her rosy lips the red carnations;
Such is she, this maiden mine.
The light- wind is her laughter;
The murmuring brooks her song;
Her tears, so fuU of tender pity,
In the'clouds are borne along. *
The sunbeams are her genial smiles;
The leaves her footsteps light;
To kiss coy flowers into life
.. Is my true love's delight.
I willtell you-who she is,
And how all things become her,
Bend down, that I may whisper best:
My sweetheart's name is—" Summer,"

'It yas a cold winter night. I sat by
the fire at a German inn. Not far from
me was Carl Yon Arnheim. We were
both members of the German University. The fire blazed fitfully, wreathing
itself in glowing spirals around the huge
logs that were being consumed. I *was
about to go off in a doze, when, suddenly, Carl recalled me to my senses by
" Do you know that the Baron Yon
and Tiis lovely
are in
town ?
I replied in the affirmative.
As I gazed on his face as it slowly
settled to its dark, weird aspect, I was
. ready to give crede^ji^o-.- those stories
bruited around among the students of
■ some strange, supernatural gifts with
.which Carl Yon Arnheim was endowed.
;",I had-often met him; and, from the
t first acquaintance he had somehow attached himself to me. * ' ■■■—■■•»
Gn being asked why, by some one, he
' replied that his and'my own destinies

Campaigns to Inspire: Juice Hugger Cafe
Smallknot is a way to help local businesses in your community achieve great things. Invest in a Smallknot campaign and you'll get great value for your contribution in the form of goods, services and special benefits — all while helping passionate entrepreneurs grow their dreams. Today, we're featuring Juice Hugger Cafe in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn. You can find them on Smallknot here.
Juicing is all the rage these days, and with good reason. With obesity rates and diabetes on the rise, it's no surprise that people everywhere are looking for healthy alternatives and making more health-conscious food choices. Cold-pressed juices made with fruits and vegetables are an increasingly popular way to lose weight, detox, or boost your veggie intake. While it's not unusual to find cold-pressed juices around the city, they're often expensive and almost always in high-priced neighborhoods.
And that's one of the reasons why Juice Hugger Cafe is so exceptional. Opened in October 2011, Juice Hugger's storefront is in Crown Heights, Brooklyn on Rogers Avenue, and they're committed to bringing fresh and affordable organic juices to a neighborhood that often lacks a lot of healthy choices. They sell their own line of cold-pressed juices and nut milks, and a variety of juice cleanses that will get you feeling energized in no time. And with prices starting at just $3.50 for a juice, anyone can enjoy it. Oh - and did we mention they deliver?
Co-owner Carl Foster knows the power of juicing first hand. Just a few years ago he was 5'9" and 220 lbs., and desperately looking for ways to get healthier. After a friend introduced him to fresh pressed juices, he lost more than 60 pounds through a combination of healthier choices and moderate exercise. When friends started asking him to make juices for them too, the company began to grow organically. Together with his fiancee and business partner Kelly Keelo, Carl began bottling juices and selling them online and at festivals and corporate events. Last year, they opened their first storefront and have quickly become a mainstay of the neighborhood.
Juice Hugger is on Smallknot today looking to upgrade the cafe and make it more comfortable for everyone to enjoy. Carl and Kelly are looking to build additional seating that will create more of a lounge area in the space, and they plan to upgrade their refrigerators, freezers and ovens so they can expand their offering and selections.
Invest in Juice Hugger Cafe today and you can get great values on juice packs and juice cleanses. It's rare indeed for Juice Hugger to offer any kind of a discount, and this is a great way to jumpstart a healhty lifestyle. Your investment will help these entrepreneurs continue to grow their business and bring even more healthy, delicious juices. There's only about a week left in the campaign, so now's the time to get in on the deal!
Feel good, get healthy, make a difference in your community. What's not to like?
Find Juice Hugger's Smallknot campaign here.

Department of Germanic & Slavic Languages & Literatures
Welcome to the Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages and Literatures. As a department of foreign languages, literatures, and cultural studies, we prepare our students for life and careers in an increasingly global world. Our programs in German, Russian, Hebrew, and Nordic Studies enable students to combine their language training with interdisciplinary study of the regions where their language is spoken. Russian and Hebrew are languages of considerable relevance to 21st-century geopolitics, while German continues to be important in light of Germany's status as Europe's largest economy. The cultural legacies of the Germanic and Slavic countries continue to shape fields such as literature, art, music, film, philosophy, and political science.
To ensure that students are well-prepared to meet the demands of the future, we offer innovative programs such as a five-year concurrent German BA and MA degree track, a dual German MA and MBA, a certificate program in German for Engineers, and a special major track for heritage speakers of Russian. We provide internship opportunities with social service organizations, businesses, schools, and libraries, as well as study abroad programs in Germany, Russia, Iceland, and Sweden.

Think narrow for storage
In a small room, sometimes it helps to think outside the box when it comes to storing things. A shoe cabinet for clothes and accessories in the bedroom is one solution. It's really narrow so it doesn't stick out and take up too much space and it's easy to use as his and her storage.
