Paul Ryan: Economy, fiscal crisis to eclipse abortion this term
Wisconsin congressman and staunch abortion opponent Paul Ryan (R-Janesville) said today that he stands by his views on the issue -- that abortion should be illegal under any circumstances -- but that they will take a back seat to the economy, the budget and other issues.
"I'm not going to violate my core principles," said the former vice-presidential candidate, who has repeatedly co-sponsored the Sanctity of Human Life Act, which would define life as beginning at conception.
But Ryan's priorities would be the debt crisis, poverty, school and jobs, Ryan said in a meeting today with Journal Sentinel editors and reporters. »Read Full Blog Post(14)

Frigid free-throw stats burn Badgers
Madison - After watching his team give another clinic on how not to shoot free throws, a performance that resulted in a 49-47 Big Ten Conference loss to No. 13 Michigan State, Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan called the fundamental shot a craft.
"You get good at something," Ryan explained Tuesday night at the Kohl Center. "We've got guys who are pretty good free-throw shooters who aren't making their free throws."
As free-throw shooters, Ryan's players this season have resembled wide-eyed newbies more than proud craftsmen and entered the night last in the Big Ten in free-throw shooting at 62.4%. »Read Full Article(39)
Tax cut would be at least $300 million over two years
Madison - Gov. Scott Walker and a top legislative leader have revealed the size of Republicans' long-discussed plan to cut the state income tax - at least $300 million over the next two years.
That would amount to a roughly 2% cut on the $15.26 billion in income taxes that the state is expected to take in over the two-year budget cycle. Walker said Tuesday that would amount to about a $200 cut over two years for the "typical state family," though he didn't specify how he was defining that.
Walker and other state GOP leaders have said for months that they want to cut income taxes to boost the state economy, but until recent days they had not provided precise details on how much it would affect the state budget. One economist questioned whether the cut would be enough to have a significant effect on the economy or jobs. »Read Full Article(828)
Oneida County chase ends with self-inflicted gunshot
Rhinelander - A sheriff's deputy's pursuit of a vehicle in Oneida County's Town of Newbold ended when the driver shot and killed himself.
Family members of the man were concerned about his safety and had asked the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department for help. That department contacted Oneida County and a deputy on patrol in the Town of Newbold spotted the man's vehicle shortly before 11 p.m. Monday.
The driver fled at a high rate of speed and the deputy pursued. Authorities said the vehicle eventually stopped and the armed driver stepped out and took his own life.
Missing man may have fallen into Lake Monona
Madison - A missing Kaukauna man may have fallen into open water on Lake Monona, authorities said.
Charles Geurts, 26, has been missing for a week. He was in Madison to attend a conference for work and was last seen leaving a hotel Jan. 16.
A police dog found Geurts' scent where a man believed to be Geurts knocked on the patio door of a home about a half-hour after leaving the hotel.

Ex-Walker aide gets 2 years in prison
Timothy D. Russell, a former aide to Gov. Scott Walker, was sentenced Tuesday to two years in prison and five years on probation for stealing more than $21,000 from a veterans organization Walker named him to lead.
Milwaukee County Circuit Judge David Hansher imposed the sentence, saying he found insincere Russell's apology and acceptance of responsibility for stealing from a nonprofit chosen to administer Walker's annual Operation Freedom veterans picnic at the zoo.
"There is also no true regret, remorse or repentance," Hansher told Russell. "I find that you don't even have any shame." »Read Full Article(179)

Jim Witkowiak - the former Milwaukee alderman who runs a large local funeral home - is used to burying bodies.
On Tuesday, he dug up some old skeletons.

Biotechs face funding hurdles
Madison - As politicians consider ways to use state money to fund high-potential start-ups, the former director of the National Institutes for Health discussed the "very challenging" fundraising environment in life sciences with state biotech companies Tuesday.
Elias Zerhouni, who is now president of research and development for the large pharmaceutical firm Sanofi, said the system for developing new drugs is broken and requires a more open, smarter innovation network that includes scientists and others from industry and academia.
"From a policy standpoint, we need to understand that small biotech companies really are going through a valley of death and we need to help them," Zerhouni said at a meeting sponsored by BioForward, the trade organization for Wisconsin's bioscience industry. »Read Full Article(2)
UW System audit ordered
Legislators scolded University of Wisconsin System leaders Tuesday during a hearing in Madison over what they called a troubling pattern of mismanagement and lack of oversight for employee payroll and benefits processing.
"Conditions exist for misappropriations to happen," Rep. Howard Marklein (R-Spring Green) warned during a Joint Legislative Audit Committee hearing shortly before the committee ordered an audit of the UW System's new payroll and personnel system by the nonpartisan Legislative Audit Bureau.
"I'm fearful there's a pattern here," said Marklein, a certified public accountant. "The concern I have is culture in the organization. How seriously do you take this, and what is the tone at the top?" »Read Full Article(39)

Democrat proposes mining bill
Madison - A Democratic senator released an alternative plan for mining legislation Tuesday aimed at heading off a Republican bill that relaxes environmental regulations for a proposed iron ore mine in northern Wisconsin.
A bill by Sen. Tim Cullen (D-Janesville) would make no changes to existing environmental regulations.
Also, it would give the state Department of Natural Resources more time to conduct its review and calls for a new tax on iron ore - with the proceeds earmarked for communities near the mine. »Read Full Article(70)

Priest gets 3 years in visa fraud
The head priest of a Hare Krishna temple in Milwaukee was sentenced to three years in federal prison Tuesday after he was convicted of bringing sham priests to the United States under a religious worker visa program and extorting money from them.

Sprinkler malfunction floods Milwaukee City Hall basement
A frozen sprinkler head on an outer wall in the basement of City Hall burst Tuesday morning, and an estimated 3 to 4 inches of water that filled the area damaged some of the city's information technology mechanical systems.
The sprinkler head burst about 11 a.m. and immediately set off an evacuation alarm. However, no evacuation was necessary, according to spokeswoman Jodie Tabak of the mayor's office and Sandy Rusch Walton of the city's Department of Public Works.
The damaged area is in the basement on the south end of the historic building. Desktop computers in City Hall lost access to the Internet for a time, but access was restored by late afternoon.
The water damage briefly closed the tunnel that connects City Hall with the Zeidler Municipal Building and another city building at 809 N. Broadway. That tunnel has since reopened. (10)
Oak Creek police: 'Skunk' smell leads to marijuana in toddler's shoes
A strange smell coming from a pair of shoes resulted in the discovery of a hidden cache of marijuana last week.

Brookfield pharmacist charged with 11 counts of felony prescription fraud
Thousands of dollars worth of controlled substances including amphetamine salts, oxycodone, morphine and dextroamphetamine are among the list of controlled substances a Brookfield pharmacist allegedly took from his job between 2009 and 2012.
James D. Kobs of Wauwatosa was charged in December with eleven counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud and one count of felony theft.

Greendale task force recommends student-run anti-bullying group
Greendale - The Climate and Culture Taskforce would like to see a student-run group created to combat bullying at the high school and middle school, its members told the School Board on Monday.
The task force - comprising 25 students, faculty members and parents - has met three times since November. The group examined instances and locations of bullying via an online survey, the district's current policy and other school districts' strategies to mitigate and stop bullying.
The task force found that most instances of bullying happen away from faculty members and administrators, and that a large amount of bullying happens via social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter. »Read Full Article(1)

James DeVita draws attention for 'Shakespeare' from the New York Times
From here to there, James DeVita is getting noticed for his show "In Acting Shakespeare."
DeVita, a popular performer with American Players Theatre, didn't see a Shakespeare play until he was 24. Now he's known for performing works from The Bard - enough so that he created the solo show with the playwright's name (inspired by Ian McKellen's one-man salute to Shakespeare) and took it to, well, close to Broadway. Close enough to capture the attention of the New York Times, which reviewed the show today.
"In Acting Shakespeare" opened nearly two years ago at Renaissance Theaterworks. Here's the Journal Sentinel review from that production.

Wisconsin Technology Council discussing a 2014 summit for start-ups
The Wisconsin Technology Council and the state's economic development agency would organize a summit where major companies could connect with high-growth start-ups under a plan being discussed by the tech council's board of directors Tuesday.
The "Wisconsin Technology Summit," which could be held in early 2014, would connect major companies with the state's high-growth start-ups. A pre-summit meeting would be held this year where a smaller group of key technology leaders would gather to summarize the state's core technical competencies, identify trends, needs and technology clusters, and create a blueprint for the larger conference.
"This is a part of a maturation process for Wisconsin's tech-based economy. This would be the start of a conversation that probably takes place more routinely in other parts of the country where large companies and small companies are talking all the time," said Tom Still, president of the Wisconsin Technology Council. »Read Full Article
Later Greenfield High School start time decision pushed back
While some hoped that the Greenfield School Board would decide on Monday whether to have Greenfield High School start later and three other schools start earlier, the board instead called for updated cost estimates on changing the times for its Feb. 11 meeting.
The board wants to know if the $210,000 cost that was estimated in 2011 for the high school to start 35 minutes later and two elementary schools and the middle school to start earlier would still be valid for the 2013-14 school year. Cost information also will be gathered on the high school starting 30 minutes later, but leaving the other school start times alone.
About six years ago, the high school went to a 7:10 a.m. start time to save money. Parents asked the board to reconsider its decision and an ad hoc committee was formed. It eventually recommended a later high school start time and adjusting start times in some other schools. The committee said educational research shows that high school students do better if school starts later and that elementary students do better if school starts earlier.
The board turned the recommendations down mainly because of the $210,000 cost. But renewed calls for a later high school start time came because of disappointment that the high school students didn't do better on the state's new academic testing program. If the students would do better with a later start, the expenditure is justified, some said. (342)

Falls crime rate is lower for fifth consecutive year
Menomonee Falls - It is not uncommon to see a police vehicle when driving down main thoroughfares in Menomonee Falls. In fact, it happens for a reason.

Germantown panel moves Riversbend development forward
Germantown - The redevelopment of the 40-acre Riversbend Country Club property on County Line Road in Germantown that includes two franchise restaurants moved forward on Monday after the Planning Commission approved permit applications and a zone change.
Olive Garden and Buffalo Wild Wings are set to go up on 3.5 acres in the parking lot of the current Riversbend Golf Club, W18034 County Line Road, as well as a new golf club house that will be built on the north end of the remaining 37.5 acres.

Ex-Walker aide Russell to be sentenced today
A close associate of Gov. Scott Walker is due to be sentenced Tuesday morning after he was convicted of felony theft.
Timothy D. Russell, 49, pleaded guilty in November to stealing more than $20,000 from a nonprofit group. The charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison.

Russell was one of six people charged in a secret investigation of the Milwaukee County executive's office when Walker held that office. Russell and four others have been convicted. The trial for the sixth begins later this month.
Walker has not been charged with wrongdoing.

Replacing Solvent-Based Rust Preventives to meet VOC Challenges
September 18, 2012
Replacing Solvent-Based Rust Preventives to meet VOC Challenges
Presenter: Jennifer Ineman with the Lubrizol Corporation
With the latest volatile organic compound (VOC) regulations in place, formulators are faced with a myriad of technology choices. They must balance different benefits, features and formulating challenges to meet their products' performance for each specific application. Each application requires an in-depth review of pre- and post- process expectations before selecting the optimal rust preventive. No single technology will be the best or only replacement of solvent-based rust preventives. This presentation will discuss key points of the new VOC regulation that has come to fruition in California and how it is expected to morph into a more global requirement. Additive development challenges will be discussed as well as the importance of having a range of technology choices that not only meet the new VOC regulations but also the performance demands of the industry.

Supposed iPhone 5 metal back hands-on video surfaces, matches previously leaked pictures
A video has surfaced today that claims to show off the iPhone 5 metal back and casing. The casing shown off in the video does appear to exactly match last weeks leaked photographs which showed a raft of changes from the iPhone 4S design.
The video shows off the new slimmer casing design which also incorporates the rumored smaller dock connector. It also shows the revised speaker and microphone grilles. Apple also appears to be heading down the uni-body approach with the antenna and back parts of the device being made in one piece; this improves the strength of the device as well as using less parts, creating more space inside for components.
The headphone jack is again shown on the bottom of the device which is common on iPod touch devices where as previous iPhone models have always had the jack on the top of the device. The bottom position may make more sense and would avoid having a cable draped down the front of your device while your holding it. The final and probably most important change is the height of the device, again we see that it is definitely larger than the iPhone 4S so a bigger screen looks like a certainty if these leaks are correct.
As with all of these leaks, until Apple actually shows off the new iPhone, we are never exactly sure what it will look like. Having said that, these leaks do appear to be very consistent and could well be parts from the next iPhone.

Supposed iPhone 5 metal back hands-on video surfaces, matches previously leaked pictures
Watching this video game me ants in my pants, now I cannot wait for the knew iPhone, I am long overdue xD
Totally agree. Fake! I mean the plate is real, but it's not from Apple's iPhone 5. It is some unauthorized iPhone clone.
The reason why I think so is because I don't think Apple will change the dock connector with thousands of third party accessories designed for the current 30-pin connector. In fact that connector is patented and no third party manufacturer has a write to make one. That's why this clone has just a regular micro-usb connector like most other phones.
The first iPhone's popularity paved the way for all those accessories, and no one had a 30pin connector back then, but now almost everyone does. Apple will most likely create a dock adjuster to fit on top of most accessories IMO. When you are the head of the most successful company world wide, you can pretty much release anything and be sure that people will buy it and adjust to it.
So what you're saying is that in 1000 years, if apple was still around an making phones, that they would still have the 30 pin dock connected just to save a few replaceable accessories?
Great – I should definitely pronounce, impressed with your web site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs and related information ended up being truly simple to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it at all. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, website theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Excellent task.
Because that made lots of sense.
On the bottom.....duh
iphone 4 about dead. Really need this soon.
Re: "The headphone jack is again shown on the bottom of the device which is common on iPod touch devices..."
Also the iPod nano FWIW.
The CE logo and FCC logo are not present on the back. So the item is clearly not a production part (if it was intended for the US, anyway, and other countries no doubt require similar regulatory badging.)
If this is a fake, it's just one component in an extensive and elaborate hoax. Not worth the trouble. I'm starting to think that the overall shape is real (but maybe not the badging, coloration, and texture details.)
It's also not out of the realm of possibility that this part was produced for testing purposes prior to FCC approval. That said, it wouldn't have the FCC logo imprinted on it. Since we haven't seen any FCC info leaked at this point it's possible that the design hasn't been finalized yet so I'm not holding my breath that this is going to be identical to a production model. If it is, however, I can't wait for it.
This doesn't sit well with me. This just looks, wrong.
For one, why would they place two small slabs of glass at the top and bottom? This hardly fits in with Apples design ethics. It already has the slits for the antenna, so why keep the glass? It looks more like a re-hashed 2011 HTC phone than an Apple product.
Second, the 'black' version has a dark grey anodization, which has never been used on any iOS device (save for the iPos nano). Why would they switch to an anodized finish, in two different colors no less, when they've been using the matte nickel finish on the iPhone, iPad, MacBooks, and iMacs? I don't think it looks very nice, TBH.
Third, the headphone jack on the bottom completely throws off the balance of the bottom of the phone. It now has one large, and one small grid of holes for the mic/speaker. It makes the bottom look disproportionate and busy, which is very un-Apple (but then again, the leaked parts for the iPhone 4 with the antenna slits looked really un-Apple at the time..) It really makes no sense to move it since it's been on the top since the iPhones introduction, other than they needed the space. But I'm pretty sure they'd find a way to do it.
Fourth, the second microphone is now between the camera and flash. Between. Why? You would think they'd put it on the right side of the flash to keep things proportionate. If Steve had any say in the design of this iPhone, I highly doubt he'd let this slide.
I don't know if it's just me thinking these things, because I am really picky person. If you were to ask me, I'd say its fake. At the most, it's probably a R&D unit to test the waters of this design.
I am, however, all for the new micro-dock. Slap some MagSafe on that and call it a day.
You need to observe more. It's placed between the camera and the flash. in my opinion that is a better placement.
What are the possibilities of a magsafe charging cable for this new version?
This looks real good. The headphone jack belongs at the bottom of the phone, no more cords in the way (taking a page from Google's Nexus). If the metal design holds, should save a lot of broken glass backs and screens for people less careful with their devices. Overall it looks like a smart and safe way to go with the phone design. The question is what new goodies can ios 6 bring to match the hardware.
The headphone jack is on the bottom for docking purposes. Just my guess. Apple being pro-consumer by adopting something more standard. Of course, that's what I would think but I'm not on Apple's PR Team....
Beautiful design, very radical. If this is true, this truly is the most beautifully designed Apple Product yet in my opinion.
Hopefully, they will sell adapter cables and connectors for legacy dock accessories.. My Kenwood car stereo for example uses a special USB cable with a dock connector on one end, and a USB and mini-stereo plug on the other.. You cant use a standard iPod USB cable to get audio to the head unit.. The dock connector plugs into the bottom of my ProClip mount. With any luck, they will make an adapter cable with a female legacy dock connector on one end and a male micro dock connector on the other.. Then I'll just have to get a new ProClip device mount when/if they become available with the micro dock pass-through.
i read something here too about this
Looks fake and if its real it looks real disappointing, honestly i feel like the iphone 5 should be a 4.5 inch screen something close to the galaxy nexus if its going to have retina display. Although i think the whole notion of hd smartphones is kind of stupid in the first place with those tiny screens, if apple wants to do the retina display they say they are bringing to the iphone any justice, they're gonna wanna make it more than a half inch bigger.
I am keenly following this website. I make an interesting observation:
Every article that is common to both this website and the most popular mac rumors blog follows this disturbing trend: It first appears in mac rumors and then here after couple of hours. I have never found a counter example, as yet. Why, I wonder?
This headphone jack on the bottom is bugging me. Look at my existing Seidio dock:
I guess an adapter could be made, but this seems like it would increase the costs of the adapters, as well as the new docks that come out. The docks would need the 3.5 plug sticking up, which I think would bend/wear over time. Is this how existing iPod docks are?
I was very excited about this when I saw the back plate and thought it was the screen. But think about it... look at the area on the back and imagine if it was a screen. Wouldn't that be awesome? I know they probably couldn't make it go edge to edge like this but I hate that I thought this because I feel I may be let down with what they actually come up with when Apple officially announces the new iPhone.
Apple lists all of the required government specs and serial numbers at the bottom of its devices. This is fake. It might be based on a real thing, but this particular part is absolutely fake.
If this is fake, someone went to a lot of trouble and for what ???? this is why it makes everyone think that it might be a real design but if it is then I would assume that is a prototype of the real deal, and if it is then its for sure that everyone that talks bad about it will still buy it like everyone (and myself) did with the iPhone 4.
I've been following this leaked design since it hit the web, and the more it gets media traction, the more I'm inclined to believe that it's real.
That being said, I initially had the same visceral reaction that I did to the iPhone 4 design - distaste. However, after getting the iPhone 4 (and subsequently the 4S), I've come to appreciate its design aesthetic. While I was watching this video, the more that I saw this design, the more I came to like it, particularly the anodized finish. If they'd just clear the glass off the back, I think it would look fantastic.
Either way, I honestly think this will prove to, once again, be Apple's best-selling iPhone to-date. I can't imagine people taking a look at it (and its rumored specs) and not wanting to take the leap.
I really hope (whatever the new iphone will look like) it will have the headphone jack at the bottom! I don't know how many times rain drops have gotten inside my 4s' headphone jack while i was filming or taking photos! Which i am sure shows up as water damaged thus voiding my warranty. :(
I've never had a problem with the placement of the headphone jack.
That two-tone backplate doesn't look like something Apple would make. I thought they would make the back of the iPhone 5 look like the back of the iPad 2/3. That'd better looking than this, and it'd standardize the range of their products, all with the anodized metal backplates (iPad, iPhone, iMac etc.)
It just doesn't look right to me...if it's what the actual thing looks like, I will have to have a think about buying it, as the design of the product is as important to me as the function.
I'm hoping this is a hoax.
I still don't follow the "iPhone 5" name. In my opinion, the iPhone 4S is the iPhone 5.
Woah this weblog is excellent i love studying your articles. Keep up the great paintings! You recognize, many individuals are hunting around for this information, you could help them greatly.
