New York audience hears of Oklahoma's plusesPublished: Friday, October 2, 2009 7:00 am By: Max Nichols
The Oklahoman
NEW YORK - New York business leaders were encouraged to "discover the global and economic momentum in Oklahoma" Tuesday evening during a reception at the 21 Club in New York by the Oklahoma Fast Forward Team.
Natalie Shirley of the state Commerce Department told guests Oklahoma provides opportunities for investors in industries designed for the future. The event was hosted by the Oklahoma Governor's Economic Team and the Oklahoma Business Roundtable along with the Commerce Department.New York guests were presented with "John Steinbeck Was Wrong about Oklahoma," a 31-page booklet by Oklahoma historian Bob Burke on the state's list of entrepreneurs, inventors, innovators, entertainers, business leaders and political leaders over the past century.
"Oklahomans were nothing like the families that Steinbeck portrayed as idealess, shiftless, hick tenant farmers in 'The Grapes of Wrath' in 1939," Burke wrote. In contrast, he pointed out the inventions and achievements of Oklahomans, ranging from S.N. Goldman's shopping cart and Carl Magee's parking meter to astronauts Tom Stafford and John Herrington.
Burk pointed out Dr. Jordan Tang and the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation discovered the enzyme responsible for Alzheimer's disease.
Burke included the inventions of the aerosol can and plastic by Phillips Petroleum scientists in Bartlesville.
Entertainers from Oklahoma also were featured by Burke, ranging from Will Rogers to Dale Robertson, James Garner and Megan Mullally to Kristin Chenoweth, Van Heflin, Shirley Jones, Brad Pitt and Chuck Norris.
He listed performers Woodie Guthrie, Reba MacEntire, Garth Brooks and Carrie Underwood.

BISMARCK, N.D. — The State Historical Society of North Dakota is considering buying the boyhood home of Lawrence Welk, though some worry the farmstead may not draw many tourists because most of the famed champagne music bandleader's fans have died or will do so soon.
So the organization proposes to use Welk's home in the tiny town of Strasburg to also highlight the importance of agriculture and the region's German-Russian heritage.
"Even with the Welk legacy aside, it's history worth preserving," said Sen. Robert Erbele, R-Lehr, who successfully fought this year to include funding for the bandleader's birthplace in the historical society's budget.
The idea comes two decades after Congress earmarked $500,000 to develop a tourist industry in Strasburg, including a museum of German-Russian heritage to draw visitors to Welk's birthplace. Embarrassed lawmakers later withdrew the money when the idea was mocked nationally as a symbol of wasteful spending.
Merl Paaverud, director of the historical society, said the agency's board meets July 12 and may decide whether to spend $100,000 on the six-acre parcel that includes the home where Welk and his seven siblings were born. The property is still owned by Welk's extended family and includes a barn, summer kitchen, granary, buggy house, blacksmith shop and outhouse.
The home, about 75 miles southeast of Bismarck, has been on the market since last fall.
"It's not a done deal," Paaverud said. "We'll be taking input from people, locals and interested parties."
Sen. Joe Miller, R-Park River, said he's a fan of the North Dakota-born bandleader — but he doesn't think the state should foot the bill for Welk's birthplace.
"It's just less money we could put toward tax relief, roads or whatever," Miller said.
North Dakota's newfound oil wealth has placed unprecedented demands on lawmakers for spending, from the mandatory to the absurd, Miller said.
"Just because people think we have lots of money people think they can come at us with ridiculous requests," he said.
Welk's nieces, Evelyn Schwab, 84, and Edna Schwab, 80, have given tours of the farmstead since it was restored with private funds in the early 1990s. Welk donated about $140,000 for the restoration before his death in 1992 at age 89, Evelyn Schwab said.
Though Welk returned home often, "He never lived to see the place restored," she said. "That was the sad part."
Not a fan of farm life, Welk left North Dakota when he was 21 after performing at barn dances and other community events. His big break came when ABC picked up his eponymous television show in 1955. The show, famous for its bubble machine and Welk's phrases "Ah-one, an' ah-two" and "wunnerful, wunnerful" in his German accent, ran until 1971 and is still shown in reruns.
The Schwabs said Welk's farmstead drew more than 7,000 people in 1992 but attendance has slipped to about 500 last year.
"For the first few years, we were swamped with people but as the years go by attendance has dropped — younger kids have their own types of music now," Evelyn Schwab said. "If it wasn't for reruns, it would have died out a long time ago."
The Schwab sisters and Sen. Erbele, whose district includes Strasburg, said the state's purchase of the farmstead would preserve Welk's musical legacy and bring in much-needed tourism dollars.
"We think $100,000 is a drop in the bucket for the state," Evelyn Schwab said. "It would help with economic development because we're not benefiting from the big (oil) boom out west."
Visitors still trickle in to see Welk's home but many are at least as old as the 80-something Schwab sisters. Fans from Canada and Alaska visited this week, along with an elderly Iowa woman who'd always wanted to see where Welk grew up.
"She cried when she arrived and said, 'I cannot believe I'm here,'" Edna Schwab said.

Recently the json service started switching random stations from having unique callsigns to short names similar to what Zap2it.com has on their grids, unfortunately this leads to things like non-unique call signs for variations of channels. (i.e. if a provider carries both an east and west feed of HBO, they both say "HBO" instead of "HBO" and "HBOP") It also breaks compatibility with some things that used the callsign names for logo matching since you can no longer assign a unique logo to different stations that share a call sign. It also leads to them being truncated on programs that are used to the 8 character limit for a callsign.
For people using European lineups, many of the Eurosport variations now have the same callsign as well. And for "BT Sports ESPN HD" (64572) they now use "BTSpt//ESPNH", which creates a problem in its own since most filesystems do not support slashes as part of a file name if you want to match a logo. While Boomerang UK (24341) now has a call sign of "Boomerang (e"
Is there anyway you can convince TMS to switch back to giving unique callsigns for each station?
Bad Callsigns
Issues relating to lineups should be posted here.

JUBA, South Sudan (AP) — Residents in the disputed border region of Abyei jubilated on the eve of the upcoming referendum in which they will choose between Sudan and South Sudan, a local leader said Saturday, despite concern the exercise could spark violence.
JUBA, South Sudan (AP) — Residents in the disputed border region of Abyei jubilated on the eve of the upcoming referendum in which they will choose between Sudan and South Sudan, a local leader said Saturday, despite concern the exercise could spark violence.
Abyei's Ngok Dinka people have been "singing and dancing" ahead of the "people's referendum" on Sunday, according to Luka Biong, spokesman for a civic group that is organizing the vote. The Sudan-allied Misseriya nomads, who come to Abyei to find pasture for their cattle, will not be allowed to participate, he added.
Both Sudan and South Sudan claim ownership of Abyei, whose status was unresolved after South Sudan became independent from its northern neighbor in 2011. The region's majority Ngok Dinka people are believed to be in favor of joining South Sudan.
"People are in a celebratory mood here. Last night they were singing and dancing as they wait for Sunday to cast their vote," said Biong, spokesman for the Abyei Referendum High Committee, which has been mobilizing people for the referendum.
Up to 100,000 people are expected to participate in the vote despite repeated warnings that such an event might trigger violence in the border region, said Biong. A local commission that will supervise the vote is expected to announce results on Oct. 31, he said, insisting the exercise would proceed without the official involvement of Sudan or South Sudan.
The African Union has warned against holding a referendum, saying such action could increase the risk of violence between the Ngok Dinka and the Misseriya. The Misseriya have warned that a referendum in which they are not participants cannot take place.
The Abyei region is rich in oil, one of the reasons both Sudans are reluctant to give it up. An African Union panel mediating talks between the countries last year proposed a referendum to be held in Abyei this month to determine which country the region would join. The AU proposal said only the permanent residents of Abyei would be allowed to vote in the referendum. That proposal was rejected by Sudan, which does not agree with South Sudan over who should be eligible to vote.
While South Sudan says only the Ngok Dinka should vote, Sudan insists the Misseriya —nomads who spend up to six months in the area — should also participate. Khartoum has argued against any unilateral action in Abyei, with Foreign Minister Ali Karti saying the dispute can only be resolved through negotiations between the two countries.
According to a cooperation agreement signed last year, both Sudans were expected to set up an interim administrative body in Abyei comprised of representatives from the Dinka Ngok and Misseriya ethnic groups. They were also expected to set up a police force and a legislative council, with the Ngok Dinka taking 60 percent of the seats and the rest going to the Misseriya. However, that plan has stalled amid disagreement over who should chair the council.
South Sudan President Salva Kiir wrote to the African Union recently urging it to do more to end the deadlock over Abyei, saying he saw no possibility of reaching an accord with Sudan anytime soon.
Following a meeting between Sudanese President Omar al Bashir and Kiir in the South Sudan capital, Juba, earlier this week, the South Sudanese government has tried to distance itself from the upcoming vote in Abyei. Michael Makuei Lueth, the South Sudanese information minister, said on Wednesday that his government "has nothing to do with" the referendum.
But Abyei leaders, many of whom are members of South Sudan's ruling party, said they would push ahead with the referendum despite the apparent lack of support from Juba.
"We do not believe that is the position of the government of South Sudan. That is a personal opinion of the information minister," said Edward Lino Abyei, who co-chairs the Abyei Joint Oversight Committee, an administrative body tasked with resolving the Abyei dispute.
Some analysts say the referendum will put pressure on both Sudans and the African Union to do more to end the Abyei dispute.
"The message it sends is that we are frustrated, we have been waiting for a peaceful and speedy resolution of this conflict but it has not happened," said Zachariah Akol of the Sudd Institute, a Juba-based think tank. "They (the Ngok Dinka) also genuinely believe that the resolution of the conflict requires a referendum."

Pure DWTS – Fascinating Things We Should Know About Derek Hough & Hong Kong Coverage
Dance Spirit has a great article up about Derek and 8 things we should know about him. Some details below, but, be sure to visit the site for much more. If you are like myself, there are some fascinating things you might not have heard before. Special thanks to Heidi and Pure Derek Hough for this news. Plus, if you haven't swung by her site for Derek lately, be sure to do so as she's got some great new high quality pictures of Derek and Julianne performing in Hong Kong and MORE.
4. He's a perfectionist.
Derek holds himself—and his partners—to an incredibly high standard. But at one time, it was almost too high. "I mentally self-destructed on competition days," Derek says of his early days on the ballroom scene. "I was terrible—I would fall apart, I would throw up. I've always danced better in rehearsals than I've ever danced in any competition." Derek credits his time on "DWTS" to helping him let go, saying it taught him
"to have more patience."
5. The "DWTS" schedule is demanding, but Derek's no stranger to hard work.
While training with the Ballas family in London, Derek undertook an extremely intense training regimen. His days were filled with classes at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts, where he studied everything from math to acting to music. After school, Derek, Mark Ballas and Julianne honed their Latin ballroom skills until 11 pm every night. Weekends were filled with lessons and competitions, and the rigid routine repeated every week. "It was a seven-day training regime that was hardcore and full-on," Derek remembers.
6. The Ballas family changed the course of Derek's dance career.
When he was 7, Derek met ballroom legend Shirley Ballas while taking master classes at Center Stage, and she immediately took notice of the budding superstar. "He and Julianne were like little stars," she recalls. "One time, he didn't come to class. I inquired about where he was and found out they were going through family difficulties. I asked someone to get in touch with him and, out of the blue, he asked if he could come live with me in London." Derek and Julianne went on to live with Shirley, her then-husband Corky and son Mark (now both "DWTS" pros as well) for close to a decade.
7. Derek loves to take risks—on and off the floor.
Rick Robinson affectionately calls Derek "wild and crazy"—and we can see why! He's been known to do everything from back-flipping off the judges' table to breaking the "DWTS" rules with illegal lifts. Although Derek credits Corky for inspiring his "out of the box" ideas, Shirley Ballas says Derek's been a daredevil ever since he was a tiny dancer. "He loved gymnastics and was always trying different tricks," she says. "We tried to make him feel like he could conquer the world. If you instill fear, fear is what you will have—Derek is fearless."
8. If it wasn't for "DWTS," Derek might not have returned to the U.S.
Derek was a star of the stage way before he stepped out on the small screen. While still in London, he had the lead role in the West End production of Footloose, and last year, he starred on Broadway opposite "DWTS" pro Kym Johnson and "SYTYCD" fave Mary Murphy in Burn the Floor. Without "DWTS," Derek says he might have taken an entirely different course: "I was in London, busy doing my thing, and got the opportunity to come do the show," he says. "I couldn't pass it by."

We took a last minute trip to CA last weekend thanks to one of Ben's former students and the free tickets to Disneyland that she gave us. We didn't tell Nolan what we were doing until the morning we left, and even then we just said we were going to California.
That night, on the walk to dinner from our hotel, Nolan started figuring it out...
Peter met us in California Adventure and then had dinner with us.
It was so much fun to see him again!
And on top of all of that... Downtown Disney had a Lego store!
Little did he know that the next day held a trip to Legoland!
And with his cousins to boot!
More surprises!
After Legoland we had a marvelous dinner at a delicious burger place near Tiff & Kurt's house, followed by frozen yogurt and a run through the water...
And the next day, a trip to the beach in Del Mar.
Nathan & Jenny were able to join us again, so it was a great day of playing with so many cousins!
We had such a fabulous time in San Diego.
We are so lucky to have such great family down there to stay with when we're there.
The Wickhams are some of the best hosts ever. Our kids LOVED their kids and Holland was OBSESSED with their dog, Lucky.

Well we made it everybody! We're finally in the home stretch of this cycle and it couldn't have come soon enough. As we start tonight's show Lisa is upset about Bre leaving but also adds that Bianca doesn't have a bodyguard anymore.
Alexandria, looking the least fierce I've ever seen her, reminds us that the judges knocked her picture for looking like "a reality TV star" and I'm reminded what a joke that is considering the fact that they are on a reality TV show. They — Tyra included — need to get over themselves and probably shouldn't use that as a way to cut the contestants down, particularly considering who their guest judges have been so far.
Shannon says she thinks the judges want more raunch from her. I think she just needs to stop being boring.
Bianca is pissed that the house is full of cliques because now she doesn't have someone to back up all the whack crap that comes out of her mouth. Seriously, she seems to get into fights with people over pretty much anything. A couple weeks ago she had a problem with Shannon's phone lineup and this week she's having a problem with Alexandria getting in the shower before her. Where is that crazy bitch Susan Powter to stop the damn insanity?
I just remembered seeing Tyra tweeting about the models creating their own scents in tonight's episode. I hope some of them can come up with something strong enough to cover up the smell of desperation, venom and hair glue for their weaves.
TYRAmail comes and the girls start to get ready. In one room, they decide to critique each other and Bianca tells Kayla she's a really great model but has no personality that translates to everyone. The gloves are off, so Kayla tells Bianca that while she's memorable, she's also a bitch and bitches never win. Bianca doesn't get it and asks, "In whose world?" In the real world, honey. Come back down here.
Kayla fears that while she's an All-Star, she's just not sticking out enough. I can tell her with no hesitation, she should definitely be worrying about that because while "I'm a lesbian" is awesome and I appreciate her being out and proud, it's not the phrase that pays.
When the ladies arrive at the challenge destination, judge Nigel Barker greets them and tells them they'll be creating their own scents. Has anyone else noticed that Nigel has been showing up a lot more this cycle than any other? I wonder why that is.
The contestants are introduced to Ben Bennett, a fragrance guru or something, who is there to help them blend a fragrance using various scents displayed in front of them. The girls are super excited and ready to play the — say it with me now in barely a whisper — "Whiiiiite Diiiiamonds" fragrance-making game.
Lisa decides her scent is going to be fun and beachy to remind people of California. My mixture prediction: Sun tan lotion mixed with leftover citrus cocktail garnish.
Sweet Southern Laura wants to be sassy and sexy. My mixture prediction: Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce mixed with lavender and honey.
Dominique is a tough one since her brand is "Survivor." How does one really smell like a survivor without a little musk? My mixture prediction: Filet mignon, snow peas and cherry blossoms.
Shannon chose tiger lily and pear blossom, which Ben warns her: Both represent "pure." My prediction: Well we know the smells but it's going to be a snoozefest to the nose. She calls it "Smitten" and Lisa calls it, "Selling herself short."
Angelea names her fragrance "Angelea." I suppose that's about as real as it gets. I couldn't make out what they said was in it but I'd like to assume it was hot dog cart water, Courvoisier and glitter.
My girl Allison knows how to spice things up. She named her fragrance "Honey Blood." They didn't say what was in it but I'm certain there are some ashes of at least one or two Sookie Stackhouse novels in there somewhere.
Kayla goes next and says that while her brand is "Free" it is because she is now "free from her story" and has "grown from her story." Prediction: One part vanilla and two parts bottled tears from after her first Pride Parade. But wait, there's a secret ingredient brought in at the last minute! I didn't realize she grew up without a bed until she was a teenager. Prediction: Ginger is in there somewhere because a little bit packs a punch and brings a "whole lot of something from a whole lot of nothing." If I'm right about this, somebody please tell the ginger farmers of America that they've got a new ad copywriter right here.

Parsing a Selection
I have a confession to make. When I was taking Greek in seminary, I didn't always come to class fully prepared. I know, it's hard to believe—especially in light of how consistent I've been with the blog this week—but I'm afraid it's all too true. There were times when I came to class without my translation assignments completed, and I would sit through class just hoping I wouldn't be called on to read my translation or parse something. I'm sure none of you reading this can relate.
On my desktop at home, I had Accordance and could get quick parsing help via the Instant Details, but laptops were prohibitively expensive back then, and even if I had one, my professor probably would have frowned on my using it in class. Then I found a poor man's solution to getting help in class: the Parse button on the Resource palette.
The Parse button gives you the parsing information displayed in the Instant Details for every word you select. So on those days when I didn't get my assignments done, I would select every word in the assigned passage, click the Parse button, and print the contents of the Parsing window.
Once I discovered this Accordance equivalent of Cliff's Notes, Greek class became much less stressful:
"Mr. Lang, would you please parse ἐκάλεσεν?"
"Sure thing! It's the third person singular aorist active indicative of καλέω."
Oh how self-assured and confident I appeared from that day forward!
The other day someone asked a question on our forums that reminded me of the insanely great power of the Parsing window. Far more than a crib sheet for unprepared students, the Parsing window can be customized in a variety of ways. I'll show you some of those in the next couple of posts.
Of course, any professors reading this should know that I do not condone this sort of behavior among your students! ;-)

Should learn the forms! Accordance should just be for the unusual and especially difficult ones!
Julie Falling
I have used the instant details window extensively to check my work. I parse first, then before I translate, I check to make sure I've got it right. The only times I have borrowed the parsing from Accordance was when I'd already spent 20+ minutes trying to figure out a difficult form. However, I have only audited Greek (to save some bucks), and am only auditing one class, not taking a full seminary load. That has been such a luxury!
Another feature of Accordance has really helped me learn to recognize the forms. I have done searches in the GNT-T for, say, all the subjunctives of a difficult verb. That has been very helpful. The more I use Accordance, the more I love it.
I've had three years of Greek at this point, which is all the college offers. Since there is a different instructor for 3rd year Greek next year, it was recommended by last year's teacher that I sit in on the class, so that's the plan.

I am ashamed to admit just how many hours of sleep Accordance could have saved me yars ago...

Microsoft's recent introduction of COM+ its distributed object standard, has again brought up the debate concerning its major competitor CORBA and their roles in distributed object standards. COM+ offers many advantages with its objective of making easier the process of writing COM-based components and applications that use those components.
COM+ simplifies the COM programming model by making the model look more like the model of the programming language you ordinarily use. With COM+ you write classes with your favorite development tool, and COM+ takes care of the details of turning those classes into COM components and applications. COM+ is language neutral. It doesn't care what programming language you use to implement your components with—the only requirement is that your programming language support some syntax that represents COM+ requests.
You use the COM+ model to develop application components. A component is a set of code that can provide objects of a particular type at runtime. Components are analogous to classes in object-oriented programming languages. Converting classes into COM objects has required additional methods and type libraries to describe the classes and interfaces that a component exposes. The COM+ specification attempts to simplify the COM component development process by automatically providing the required methods and class descriptions. Although COM+ does simplify the process of creating COM components, a few constraints limit the ways you can implement COM+ classes. For example, you might not be able to use all the features of your programming language when developing your classes.

Yesterday, as we grocery shopped, my seven-year-old stopped, put her hands out and said, "I just had a vision."
The vision was a cake. "The best cake anyone has ever made." A cake for the ages. And today, we're going to share her recipe with you.
You'll need:
- Red Velvet cake mix (and the eggs and oil to make the cake
- Two cans of chocolate fudge frosting
- Birthday Cake Oreos
- Mint Oreos
- That weird Betty Crocker frosting in the aerosol can, in blue
- Read-made chocolate chip cookie dough
- Sprinkles (here, she has gone patriotic with red, white, and blue)
- 2 round cake pans
You don't need the whipped topping. During the creative process, I convinced her that it was a bad idea, as the cake would have to be refrigerated, and our refrigerator looks like the place where leftovers go to die right now.
Preheat your oven according to the directions on the cake mix you're using and prepare you pans. We greased and floured the pans as per usual, but I also put down a layer of parchment paper, because I had no idea how her "vision" would play out. Then pat down a layer of cookie dough to cover the bottom of the pan.
Add a single-layer of Birthday Cake Oreos on top of the cookie dough.
Once that step is completed, prepare your cake mix according to the directions on the box. Pour half of the mix into the cookie dough pan. In your second pan, pour in a thin layer of cake mix, then put a layer of the Mint Oreos on top of the cake batter. Pour the remaining batter into the pan.
Bake the cakes according to the directions on the box. You might need to give it a little more time, just keep checking on it. This was totally an experiment, so we had no idea how long it would have to go in. I think we did thirty minutes. Your mileage may vary.
Once the cakes are out of the oven, give them a while to cool down. When they're cool, cover the bottom cake (the one with the cookie dough bottom) with frosting. You're basically using the frosting to glue the top and bottom cakes together, so you could just do the cop, but I went ahead and slapped a crumb coat on the bottom while I was there. Place the other cake on top of the bottom one:
Then, slap a crumb coat on the top, and frost the whole thing.
After frosting, garnish the top with the remaining Oreos and anchor them with the blue icing:
She chose to alternate the Mint and Birthday Cake Oreos. You may also add the decorative border around the bottom, if you like.
And of course, you cannot forget the sprinkles:
So, there you have it. My daughter's "vision." How did it turn out, eating wise? Well…let's just say it's a complex flavor experience. And you can only eat a couple of bites, or the sugar will overwhelm you. But she's proud of it, and I am, too. Because if you have a creative vision, whether it's a book or a film or a painting or a cake, you can see it through and achieve your dreams. You just have to believe in yourself.

|Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lu Kang's Regular Press Conference on November 21, 2017
Q: According to reports, the United States decided to put the DPRK back on a list of state sponsors of terrorism yesterday and it may ramp up sanctions on the DPRK. What's your comment on this?
A: We have noted the relevant reports. The current situation on the Korean Peninsula remains highly complex and sensitive. We hope the relevant parties will do more to help deescalate tensions and come back to the track of peacefully resolving the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue through dialogue and negotiation.
Q: You released the information on Premier Li Keqiang's upcoming visit to Hungary yesterday. Is this his first visit to that country as premier? What's China's expectation for this visit?
A: Hungary is an important country in Central and Eastern Europe and the host of the Sixth Summit of China and Central and Eastern European Countries as well as China's comprehensive strategic partner. China highly values its relations with Hungary and treats it as an important cooperation partner in Central and Eastern Europe and the European region as a whole. In recent years, the two countries have maintained close leadership-level interactions, conducted in-depth cooperation in various fields and carried out rich cultural and people-to-people exchanges.
This is Premier Li Keqiang's first visit to Hungary since he assumed office. During his visit, Premier Li Keqiang will hold talk with Prime Minister Viktor Orban and meet with other Hungarian leaders and exchange views on China-Hungary relations, the cooperation between China and Central and Eastern European Countries and issues of mutual concern. The two sides will also sign cooperation documents in relevant fields. We believe that Premier Li Keqiang's visit will further enrich the China-Huangary comprehensive strategic partnership and promote across-the-board practical cooperation between the two countries for more fruitful outcomes.
Q: A former senior official of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was arrested in New York over alleged involvement in a bribery scheme on behalf of a Shanghai-based energy company. Is China informed of the situation? Could you share more information with us?
A: We have noted the relevant reports. I'm not aware of the details. As a principle, China always requires Chinese enterprises to legally operate their business abroad and abide by the local laws and regulations.
Q: First, according to reports, when declaring the DPRK a sponsor state of terrorism yesterday, US President Donald Trump said that the Treasury Department will announce new sanctions against North Korea today. What's your reaction to this? Second, did President Trump tell President Xi Jinping about the relevant move? Third, President Trump's announcement coincides with Minister Song Tao's return from the DPRK. What's your response to this?
A: As for your second question, during President Trump's visit to China, President Xi Jinping and he exchanged views on how to develop China-US relations in a more in-depth way and other issues of mutual concern including the situation on the Korean Peninsula. We have issued press releases on the details. I have no more information to offer with regard to the talks between the two presidents.
On your first question, President Trump said the Treasury Department will roll out further measures on November 21 (EST). As I said, we are not getting ahead of that and will see what is about to come. Like what I said, the situation on the Korean Peninsula remains highly complex and sensitive. Various parties should recognize that the deescalation of the situation will help bring parties back to the negotiating table, which serves the interests of all parties.
I don't see any necessary connection between the timing of President Trump's announcement and Minister Song Tao's visit to the DPRK.
Q: According to information, the 8th round of strategic dialogue between China and Pakistan was held yesterday in Islamabad, which was attended by senior officials from both countries. Do you have more information to share with us?
A: On November 20, the 8th round of China-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue was held in Islamabad. Assistant Foreign Minister Kong Xuanyou co-hosted the strategic dialogue with Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua of Pakistan.
In the dialogue, Assistant Foreign Minister Kong Xuanyou said that China and Pakistan are all-weather strategic cooperative partners and we have always lent support to each other when it comes to issues of respective core interests. China always makes Pakistan a priority in its neighborhood diplomacy, and China's development should first benefit a good friend that shares weal and woe like Pakistan. China wishes to develop China-Pakistan relations with a strategic vision and from a long-term perspective and work with Pakistan to move forward the bilateral relations and proactively build the China-Pakistan community of shared future.
Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua said that China-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue serves as an important channel for the two countries to enhance strategic communication and coordination. Pakistan stands ready to make the most of this mechanism and move forward the communication and cooperation as well as strategic coordination between the two countries.
In this round of dialogue, both sides spoke highly of the China-Pakistan all-weather strategic cooperative partnership and expressed that the two countries will continue to well implement consensus reached by leaders of both countries, enhance friendly exchanges at various levels, actively facilitate the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, deepen practical cooperation in various areas and jointly build the China-Pakistan community of shared future. The two sides also exchanged in-depth views on international and regional issues of mutual concern.
As far as I know, both sides have issued detailed press releases after the dialogue concluded. You may look into them.
Q: According to Japanese media, Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono said in an address at Kanagawa Prefecture that, the Chinese-proposed Belt and Road Initiative will be highly conducive to global economy if carried out in an open manner that is available to all. What is your comment on this?
A: We have noted the relevant reports. We welcome Japan's positive attitude towards the Belt and Road cooperation. The Belt and Road is an important international public good China has offered in a bid to promote development cooperation, and it is set to be an open and inclusive cooperation platform from the very beginning. China always upholds the principle of wide consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits and acts in the silkroad spirit of peace and cooperation, openness and inclusiveness, mutual learning and win-win cooperation to deepen mutually beneficial cooperation with various parties. We believe the in-depth advancement of the Belt and Road will not only create greater room for China's opening and development, but also present more opportunities for the development of Japan and other countries as well as the global economy.
Q: The President of Panama is visiting China this week. In some press conferences and interviews he said that all the countries in Central America and the Caribbean may soon follow Panama and establish ties with China. Can you confirm this and tell us which countries are negotiating with China?
A: China is committed to developing friendly cooperation with countries around the world on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Co-existence and one-China principle. The development of relations between Panama and China since the establishment of diplomatic ties has shown that as long as the one-China principle is held, there is solid foundation and ample room for other countries to develop relations and cooperation with China.
Q: A series of attacks have been carried out against the candidates contesting provincial and federal parliamentary elections in some areas of Nepal. How do you comment on the election situation in Nepal?
A: The Chinese side has noted the relevant reports. As a good neighbor and good friend of Nepal, China supports Nepal in choosing a development path that suits its own national conditions and sincerely hope that various parties in Nepal will work in unity to complete the election to help the country set out on a new journey of political stability and economic development.
Q: According to the Australian media, negotiations between Australia and the Taiwan authority on a "free trade agreement"have been on hold for many years because of pressure from the Chinese mainland and Australia's reluctance to offend the mainland. What is your response? Some members of the Australian parliament believed that though Australia has already signed a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the Chinese mainland, it would not constitute a violation of the one-China policy if Australia signs another with the Taiwan authority. What is the mainland's position on possible FTA negotiations between the Taiwan authority and Australia?
A: We firmly oppose any official contacts and exchanges between the countries having diplomatic relations with us and the Taiwan authority. We firmly oppose their negotiating and signing of any official agreements with sovereign implications as well. We hope that the relevant country will fully grasp how sensitive and complicated the Taiwan issue is, stick to the one-China principle, and properly handle the relevant issue with caution.
Q: According to reports, on November 20, Kenya's Supreme Court ruled that the presidential election rerun on October 26 is valid and upheld the reelection of Jubilee Party's candidate, the incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta. What's your comment?
A: The Chinese side has noted the final ruling issued by the Supreme Court of Kenya and is pleased to see the settlement of the dispute over Kenya's presidential election within the legal framework. We congratulate President Uhuru Kenyatta on his reelection and sincerely wish that Kenya will maintain peace and stability and make greater achievements in national development.
Q: Air China appears to have stopped flights to Pyongyang. They are closing their offices there, at least temporarily, and the Chinese staff will return to China. I wonder if this move by China is part of Chinese government's policy towards the DPRK?
A: I have not heard of what you said. Even if it is the case, the airliners just make work out their own operation plans based on the state of operation and the market.
Q: Yesterday we heard that there might be further information forthcoming when Special Envoy Song Tao returns from the DPRK to China. Is there gonna be more information about that trip that is available to us? When will that be?
A: I said yesterday that before and amid Minister Song Tao's visit to the DPRK, the Xinhua News Agency of China and the Korean Central News Agency of the DPRK have respectively released relevant information. After Minister Song Tao returned to Beijing from the DPRK, the Xinhua News Agency was authorized to publicize information regarding his visit. I have nothing further to add. If you want to know more, I would refer you to the competent authority.
Q: According to reports, a former senor official of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region was arrested over the weekend on charges of bribery regarding deals with Chad and Uganda. What is your comment?
A: As I just said, I am not aware of the specifics of the situation you mentioned. But I want to stress that the Chinese government always asks its enterprises overseas to run their businesses legally and observe local laws and regulations.

When W-2 forms begin arriving in the mail, it's a sure sign that tax season has again returned. This year, however, there will be a slight delay for tax filers. Due to the lateness of tax law changes made by Congress, IRS will begin processing returns on January 30. This date will apply regardless of whether tax returns are e-filed or on paper.
The consumer benefit from this brief delay means tax filers have more time to identify and include every available credit. Depending upon family income, size and filing status, several tax credits can boost refunds – especially among low- and moderate- income households. Applying every eligible tax credit will maximize refunds.
For example, although four out of five workers are eligible for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), IRS advises that one out of four fails to claim the credit for one of two reasons. Either they failed to file a tax return at all, or filed one, but failed to claim what they were due.
In 2011, 27 million eligible workers received a total of $62 billion in EITCs, making it the largest tax program for working families, according to the Office of the Controller of the Currency (OCC).
This year, workers earning $50,270 or less can apply for EITC. The exact amount of EITC eligibility will vary by income, family size and filing status. Even so, last year the average EITC credit was $2,200, according to IRS. This year, IRS expects that workers, the self-employed and farmers that qualify for this credit could receive even higher refunds.
Another key tax credit is the American Opportunity Credit, designed to financially assist parents and students to pay for college expenses. Either individual filers with modified adjusted gross income of $80,000 or less, or married filers with a joint return earning $160,000 or less are eligible to apply. The maximum amount of the annual credit is $2,500 per student, not per family. Eligibility for this tax credit can cover up to four years of post-secondary education.
For consumers of any age pursuing post-secondary education, a Lifetime Learning Credit can help for that cost. Up to $2,000 in qualified, paid educational expenses can be claimed when enrolled in an eligible educational institution. There is an important caveat to claiming this credit: filers can claim either the Lifetime Learning Credit or the American Opportunity Credit; but never both. Additionally, the Lifetime Learning Credit has no limit on the number of years it can be claimed for each student.
With so many consumers struggling with student loan debt, tax season also offers a tax deduction on paid student loan interest. If a filer's modified adjusted gross income is less than $75,000 or less than $150,000 for joint returns, a special deduction is allowed for voluntary and required interest payments. IRS advises that this tax deduction can reduce the amount of income subject to taxation by as much as $2,500.
Here's one last cost-saving tip for tax season: Utilize the free tax assistance services in your area. In many instances, there is no reason for consumers to pay the high-cost fees charged by tax services. .
IRS Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) available to any worker making $51,000 or less. These IRS-certified volunteers can help filers to determine all eligible credits and/or deductions. Interested consumers are asked to phone 1-800-906-9887 to determine the closest local assistance center.
AARP Foundation Tax Aid offers free assistance through more than 6,000 locations nationwide to consumers aged 60 or over. To locate a nearby service center, visit:

The post election Post Mortem continues, with a few items not generally discussed in the media or on talk radio.
Doug Urbanski, the film producer, substituted for Rush Limbaugh on the day after Thanksgiving 2012. As might be expected, the subject matter he concentrated on was the circumstances of the 2012 election and why Candidate Romney lost. As is usual, Urbanski had a lot to say, most of which was dead on target.
We should note that Urbanski has decades of experience in the film industry. He knows presentation and he knows what sells. Thus, his observations deserve serious attention. Also, important, a significant aspect of his prescriptions has been something this writer has been attempting to promote, under the radar, ever since the Clinton Administration.
The key issue here wasn't Romney, even though some people may make the case, while pointing at people who refused to vote for him. As Ann Coulter recently pointed out, Romney had a lot in common with candidate Ronald Reagan of 1980. What mattered more was that Romney failed to do what was necessary, whether by personal design, or due to bad advice. As Urbanski put it, Romney campaigned to govern, not to win.
What I believe, and what Urbanski hinted at is the old rule: "know thy enemy." Today's Republican Party and those who manage it have failed horribly in this lesson. It appears that they are still looking at the elections rather like an athletic contest with no great shakes standing on the outcome. After all, they seem to say, we are all Americans and we all want the best for the nation. However, this is no longer true, and some commentators would assert that it hasn't been true for about a century. The writings and actions or Woodrow Wilson certainly support this view. And meanwhile, the Democrat Party has changed, and has little in common with that of the party of half a century ago.
The key difference today is that the modern Democrat Party has become anti-American and has been for some time. Its primary motivation is a desire for power, and party functionaries quite frankly don't give a darn what they need to do to get it. The only thing they may be unwilling to do as yet is kill, and there are some who will argue this point pointing to the deaths of Vince Foster and Ron Brown as evidence. But regardless, what must be recognized are the desire for power, the willingness to do virtually anything for it, and the finally, the simple fact that to them, politics is everything and everything is political.
The plain fact is that the modern Democrat "Progressive" sees the contest, not as matter of little consequence, but rather as WAR. Republicans are not a loyal opposition; they are THE ENEMY. Anyone who opposes the quest for power must be eliminated and their opposition must be "proved" illegitimate, even if it is legitimate, which leads further to the use of negative advertising, false information and incessant propaganda. It is a formula the Joseph Goebbels would be proud of.
If we look back on the 2012 campaign we see the Democrat Party and its associates attacking Candidate Romney as soon as it appeared likely that he would be the nominee. No criticism was harsh enough. He was cruel to animals; he caused the death of someone's wife; he was a felon; all baseless charges that were leveled at him. Because he opposed their candidate and in so doing, their agenda he became Frankenstein, and Frankenstein must be destroyed.
The Republicans Party, at least so far, has not understood the nature of the conflict. It has allowed the opposition to control the "game" and make the rules. Whether in combat onr in an athletic contest, when the opposition makes the rules, it becomes virtually impossible to win. In such cases, it is only when you change the rules to your advantage that you can prevail. As Mr. Urbanski pointed out, Gandhi was able to prevail against the British in India because he understood their strengths and weaknesses. He moved the contest over control of India into areas where he was strong and the Brits were weak. Much of today's contest in the US is being fought in the media, yet the vast majority of the media, whether entertainment, information or education are controlled by the left. And the Republicans/Conservatives do little or nothing about it.
Another Urbanski point is that the Democrats target the uninformed, the naive, the distracted, (and I would also assert, the stupid and foolish). They campaign nationwide, while the Republicans have chosen to target the "swing states and swing voters" but they do not target them effectively because they refused to offend anyone or raise controversy. The one candidate who did this before he was eliminated from the primary race (quite possibly by falsified evidence) was Herman Cain, whose 9-9-9 plan was able to dominate discussion for some time. But Romney did not get specific, as Cain did. Thus, as Urbanski, again indicates, Cain was a more effective candidate in controlling the conversation.
Now the Democrats also have another ace up their sleeve, as Texas state senator Dan Patrick recently indicated on his evening radio program. The Democrats in Harris County, Texas, (wherein lies Houston) have a much greater level of electoral discipline. They vote straight ticket to a much greater degree than Republicans. This behavior reflects the essential monoculture that exists in Democrat behavior once the candidates are chosen. Republicans, in contrast vote as individuals, and some refused to vote for Mitt Romney because he:
Wasn't conservative enough;
Wasn't libertarian enough;
Wasn't a "Christian" because he was a member of the LDS Church;
And so on.
This lack of discipline, or of party unity is recipe for losing.
Countering all of the above problems may be very difficult. While Hillary Clinton was wrong and there never was a "vast right wing conspiracy" there is a vast left wing conspiracy in operation and it has been there, in varying degrees since the Woodrow Wilson Administration. To counter its presence Republicans must not descend into the mediocrity of moderation, but confront the opposition head on. While it cannot resurrect Ronald Reagan, it can use his strategies and tactics. As Ann Coulter points out in a recent column, Reagan's past was a checkered as Romney's in policy changes. He was governor of California, and some of his decisions there reflected that state's liberalism. But his bold conservatism cut through the fog of war and prevailed.
During the last half century or so the American military has been fighting with one or more of its hands tied behind its back. Thus, it has been prevented from achieving the victory that "total war" would have achieved and probably suffered more casualties and PTSD effects as a result. Republicans are fighting the political battle with their hands tied as well. It is time that they changed this and opted for the Total War option, and thus learned to win.

Argia, Inc. necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 132 diseños de 45 diseñadores freelance.
Our company, Argia, Inc., is a mobile applications development company. We are a LBS (Location Based Services) company with expertise in wireless indoor localization (think indoor gps). Our market differentiator is the accuracy of our localization but our focus is on the quality of the customer experience.
Our target audience is the public but we will be selling services to retail stores and other application developers.
We are looking for a neat, mobile friendly (can be turned into app logo), company logo that is fresh and conveys a professional but customer friendly aesthetic. Be playful with the design. The creative and fun design will be awarded.
Argia is a genus of damselfly, and we would like to borrow colors from nature for the logo. Many pictures of the damselfly in question are easily available on the web, including the following locations:
To be clear, we are NOT looking for a damselfly logo, but the colors are appealing. It's great if you can work some of the features of the damselfly into the logo but please don't be literal when doing so. That is, we won't be interested in just damselfly logos-use it for inspiration but don't copy it.
Here is a list of other general guidelines:
* We are looking for a neat/clean logo with mass market not business market appeal (i.e. nothing too corporatized).
* We prefer geometric sans serif fonts for the name.
* Refrigerator font is appealing for it's tall design but we are certainly open to seeing other designs with similar fonts

2006 Volvo C70 Dynaudio Sound System
Convertibles aren't conducive to great sound - at least not when you're speeding along in one with the top down. But with its unique, three-piece retractable hardtop, the 2006 Volvo C70 (sticker price $47,307 as tested) isn't a typical convertible - and the Dynaudio Premium Sound package that's available as a $1,550 option isn't a typical OEM system, either.
The system boasts an impressive 910 watts powering 14 speakers, including two 8-inch subwoofers behind the rear seat that receive 130 watts of juice each. But that's almost too much of a good thing. I found that the bass often overpowered the rest of the system, and I was constantly dialing it down - using the separate controls for bass, front and rear equalization, and subwoofer level - to find an appropriate and consistent level relative to the rest of the frequency spectrum. There was also the option of completely switching off the subwoofers, but that defeats the purpose of having them in the first place (and, frankly, it seems wimpy).
Complementing the subwoofers are 8-inch(!) drivers that Volvo managed to squeeze into each door along with a 4-inch midrange and 1-inch tweeter. The system also features a 4-inch mid and 1-inch tweeter in the center of the dash and a 6.5-inch midrange and 1-inch tweeters in the rear side panels. While the 8s up front ease the transition to the subs and help prevent low bass from skewing the soundstage rearward, as happens in most vehicles with rear-mounted subwoofers, it also contributed to the overbearing bass at times. On delicate acoustic tracks from Red House Painters' Ocean Beach and Luka Bloom's Turf, for example, the 8-inch drivers started to distort at moderately loud volume.

Vonage V-Portal full review
Introduced at CES 2008, the Vonage V-Portal is a digital voice adaptor and router with an LCD display.
If you're an internet-phone user, you may not pay much attention to the VoIP phone adaptor, the nondescript gizmo (aka digital voice gateway) that links your home phone to your cable/DSL modem or router. Vonage aims to change that with its new V-Portal, a relatively flashy adaptor with a built-in LCD screen that helps with installation, troubleshooting, and diagnostic issues.
While most VoIP adaptors are homely contraptions best hidden behind a printer or in a corner, the V-Portal - with a curvy orange stripe framing its control panel - at least makes an attempt to be fashion-forward. Okay, it's no iPhone, but Vonage gets an A for effort.
Available to new Vonage customers for a nominal fee, the Vonage V-Portal does some handy tricks. Its 2.5in monochrome LCD eases setup by suggesting fixes for common glitches - although not always accurately.
In our tests, for instance, the Vonage V-Portal detected an "incorrect network setting" during setup. The LCD posted a message suggesting we unplug the power connector and then reinsert it; unfortunately, this didn't fix the problem, and we had to call Vonage for help in getting the V-Portal to work with our 2Wire DSL modem/wireless router.
The LCD's interface is easy to learn. Four buttons - up, down, back, and select - located below the screen make navigating the onscreen menus easy.
Vonage V-Portal works with Caller ID and displays the phone number and (sometimes) the name of the person calling. This feature is convenient if your phone is tethered to the V-Portal, but less so if you use a wireless handset that's usually in another room.
The call timer is convenient for attorneys and businesspeople who need to log phone times, and the voicemail indicator shows when messages are waiting, though the latter feature is fairly common among phone adaptors.
The Vonage V-Portal has two phone ports, one for the main line and the other for an optional fax or second voice line. And since the V-Portal is also a single-port router, you can connect a computer or another networkable device to it.
If you plan to sign up for Vonage service, the Vonage V-Portal, for a mere few quid, is a worthy upgrade.

Last week, Jalopnik writer Jason Torchinsky issued a call for readers to come up with a look for a car with some very unusual specs.
The request originally came from Eli, the four-year-old nephew of a Jalopnik reader, who imagined a ride with 42 wheels, three steering wheels (that can be used at the same time), and a trunk full of toys.
And it had to be a BMW, powered by 19 Porsche engines (with a combined 8,721 horsepower).
Ignoring the engine bit, BMW's marketing department put together its vision of the 4219Eli.
Here's the result. It's awesome:

"American Hustle" (R, 138 minutes, Sony): A larky, anarchic life force runs through David O. Russell's screwball homage to the strivers and connivers who wreak playful havoc with what could easily have been a straight-up, if antic, FBI procedural. Notionally based on the 1978 Abscam investigation, wherein an FBI sting used fake Arab sheiks to ferret out corruption within the ranks of Congress and local jurisdictions, "American Hustle" cheerfully jettisons any pretense of historical accuracy or journalistic shoe-leather. Oscar nominees Christian Bale, Amy Adams and Bradley Cooper develop a credible, explosively volatile chemistry, and Bale is particularly heroic in his portrayal of a blubbery white whale of a man trying to shake that last harpoon. Contains pervasive profanity, some sexual content and brief violence. Extras include a making-of featurette, deleted and extended scenes.
"Frozen" (PG, 108 minutes, Disney): Disney is back in the game with this Oscar winner for best animated feature and best song "Let It Go." The movie might not have potential pop hits — the songs sound much more like musical theater show tunes — but the animated comedy-adventure has a sweet and very modern message, plus strong characters. More important, the movie blends the music-minded mentality of yore with the more recent ambition of truly appealing to all ages. Its surprising and poignant ending, which subverts so many fairy-tale stereotypes, feels as though it cancels out the movie's small flaws and dragging moments. "Frozen" may be a nod to the pleasures of vintage Disney and old fairy tales, but there's nothing outdated about it. Contains some action and mild rude humor. Extras include deleted scenes; the Oscar-nominated animated short, "Get A Horse"; "Let It Go" music videos by Demi Lovato, Martina Stoessel & Marsha Milan Londoh. Also, on Blu-ray: two making-of featurettes.
"Saving Mr. Banks" (PG-13, 125 minutes, Disney): A spoonful of sugar and all the cheap sentiment and facile whimsy it represents are precisely what author P.L. Travers abhors in this richly rendered, engrossing dramatization of Walt Disney's efforts to adapt Travers' novel "Mary Poppins" into one of his confectionery extravaganzas. Played by Emma Thompson in a deliciously brittle turn, Travers emerges in the film as a humorless, imperious, unfailingly prim martinet, who when she arrives at the Disney studios in 1961 to collaborate on the script, insists that everyone — even Uncle Walt — address her as "Mrs. Travers." Reluctant to hand over Mary Poppins — never just "Mary," please — Travers wages a two-week war of attrition on the screenwriter and composers assigned to bring the magical governess to the screen, wearing the boys down with constant criticisms and suggestions, all to keep her most cherished creation from becoming yet another casualty of Disney-fication. Contains thematic elements including some unsettling images. Extras include the deleted scene "Nanny Song," in which two composers perform a song that Travers is less than thrilled about. Also, on Blu-ray: deleted scenes; a featurette on the history of Walt Disney Studios; "Let's Go Fly a Kite," in which the cast and crew break out in a heartfelt tribute to composer Richard Sherman on the last day of filming.
"Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" (PG-13, 129 minutes, The Weinsterin Co./Anchor Bay): This film does a worthy job of honoring both its subject and its audience. It can feel, at times, both overlong and oversimplified, but the story propels itself along while awakening in viewers some profound emotions. That latter achievement is thanks largely to the film's star, British actor Idris Elba, who has transformed himself in recent years from an inner-city Baltimore drug kingpin on "The Wire" to a London detective with a dark side on the television series "Luther" to the late, beloved freedom fighter. Elba looks not at all like Nelson Mandela, and yet his demeanor, not to mention his impressive accent, captures the icon. Contains some intense sequences of violence and disturbing images, sexual content and brief strong language. Extras include commentary with director Justin Chadwick and "Mandela: The Leader You Know, The Man You Didn't" featurette. Also, on Blu-ray: behind-the-scenes featurettes and a tribute video gallery.
Also: "Kill Your Darlings," "Reasonable Doubt," "The Patience Stone" (Afghanistan)," "Sparks," "The Hidden Fortress" (1958, Akira Kurosawa classic, The Criterion Collection), "Swerve," "A Brief History of Time' (1991, Errol Morris documentary on astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, The Criterion Collection), "Almost Sharkproof " "Flu" (South Korea), "Kingdom of Conquerors" (China), "20 Ft. Below: The Darkness Descending," "Here Comes the Devil" (Mexico), "Doc McStuffins: Mobile Clinic" (animated, Disney), "Cybergeddon," "Tom Holland's Twisted Tales," "The Horror at 37,000 Feet" (1973, an "Exorcist" meets "Airplane" made-for-TV mashup starring William Shatner, Buddy Ebsen, Chuck Connors and others, Lionsgate) and "The Wrath of Vajra" (China).
Television Series: "Flashpoint: The Final Season" (CBS), "Atlantis: Season One" (BBC),"Monsters: The Complete Series" (1988-90) and "Peppa Pig: My Birthday Party" (Nick Jr.).

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL -- Mitt Romney's campaign opened a new front in its battle to define President Obama as far to the left of even Democrats like Bill Clinton, with the presumptive GOP nominee accusing the president of trying to "reverse" welfare reform.
The GOP contender, whose campaign resurfaced this issue of welfare reform this morning with a new television ad and a conference call, cast the Clinton era welfare reform effort, which tied welfare payments to work, a "great accomplishment," and praised the value of a job as strengthening the American economy and American people.
In the next breath, he called out President Obama for what he claimed was an attempt to gut the work requirement.
"I hope you understand that President Obama in just the last few days has tried to reverse that accomplishment by taking the work requirement out of welfare," Romney told a crowd gathered on a factory floor here. "That is wrong. If I'm president, I'll put work back in welfare."
The Romney campaign is charging that a waiver issued by the Department of Health and Human Services would exempt states from the work requirements contained in the law; the memo at issue stipulates that a waiver only be granted if the state offers a substitute that achieves the same work goals.
Romney also defended his own work on welfare reform as Governor of Massachusetts, already a target for Democrats.
"We must include more work in welfare. When I was governor of my state, I fought time and again. My legislature passed a bill removing the work requirements at the level we'd had in the past. I vetoed that and then fought time and again to get more work requirements, to raise the work requirements in my state, not because I don't think people who need help should be helped," Romney said. "I very much agree that those who are seriously disabled or are unable to work need to have help of the rest of us, but those who can work ought to have the opportunity for a good job, and if they're getting state assistance, they ought to have the requirement for a good job. We will end a culture dependency and restore a culture of good, hard work."
In his first public appearance since Sunday's shooting at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin, Romney also set politics aside at the top of his remarks to call for a moment of silence for the victims.
"I'd like to have a moment of silence to honor the people who lost their lives in Wisconsin in that tragic, tragic shooting at the Sikh temple. The tragedy is even more profound because the Sikh religion and the Sikh people are such peaceful, loving individuals," Romney said. "And I think its also more tragic because the shooter was apparently someone who was motivated by hate. Hate based on race. Hate based on religion. For all those reasons, this is something that touches us very deeply."

Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 101 diseños de 41 diseñadores freelance.
kendall k.
I'm a clothing designer who is starting up an apparel manufacturing company, specifically my own clothing line. The apparel will be targeted for woman ages 20-45. The concept will be feminine, eclectic, classic and vintage-inspired. I have been gravitating to a simple blk/white typewriter font for the logo but I would love to have any other suggestions.
The clientele will be woman ages 20-45 who shop in contemporary boutique environments. She looks for the special details and trims and will pay a little more for a nicer fabrics. She is stylish and well put together. Often times she pairs unlikely pieces together in order to create a juxtaposition of concepts- silk ruffle blouse with a pair of destroyed vintage washed skinny denim jeans.
Again, as mentioned above I was imagining the name in a standard American typewriter font in all lower case letters with a period at the end. Essentially, I want the name to be simple and understated but not boring. Something that catches the eye with mystery but has a cool edge at the same time. I'm also seeing the font broken a bit ( as if the ink was running out on the typewriter). thanks.
