Let's face it, those who have earned income in 2013 will pay more taxes one way or another. But, when you look at the consequences of the fiscal cliff cuts, it's really not that bad. In fact, many are welcome.
Half the spending cuts will come from the Department of Defense. It's time for the Pentagon to reprioritize. The Cold War is over. We lost. The Russians and Chinese duped us into perennial debt. I am not aware of North Korea, Iran or al-Qaida patrolling our coastline in submarines, so why do we need a P8 sub-hunter, for a start?
Lifetime unemployment checks, GM subsidies, bailing out underwater mortgages, corn subsidies for ethanol, Solyndra – all will be just nightmares of the past.
Interest rates will go up, making money markets and CDs viable again.
Best of all, state slush funds from the feds will be pared. A governor's ability to pay off unionized state workers, local tribal supporters and many ineffective state welfare programs will be curtailed. What a bonus!
All of these great benefits in one swoop on Jan. 1, 2013. However, all these pet rocks would survive a Plan B, C or any negotiated copout agreement. Both parties would revert to slashing Social Security and Medicare instead of defense contractors and state slush funds for the party faithful.
After all, who is fear-mongering the fiscal cliff mania? It's the lobbyists, liberal media, the Democrats, the unions and bogus welfare moochers.
This is a refreshing opportunity to right many wrongs.

> Drawing a line in the sand to divide what is OK from what is not OK may not > be the most appropriate response to all needs. Perhaps publishing > reading-level information in page metadata is a way we can offer relief to > the non-reader without banning reading from the Web. Several questions come to mind. First, can we come up with an objective rating system, vs a subjective one, in the area of readability ? An objective system is one that can be used reliabily by different persons and still give the same answer: e.g. I look at a page, I looked at the definition of reading level 0 to 4, and I say, this one is a 3, and so would anyone with the understanding of the definitions. In the field of metadata for protection of children (i.e. level of sex, nudity, violence, etc rating), the example would go like: a subjective rating system: 0 level of violence ok for toddler 1 level of violence ok for pre-teen 2 level of violence ok for teen 4 level of violence ok for adult an objective rating system: 0 No aggressive violence; No natural or accidental violence 1 Creatures injured or killed; damage to realistic objects 2 Humans or creatures injured or killed. 3 Killing with blood and gore 4 Wanton and gratuitous violence Whereas I wouldn't be able to come up with the same answer as my neighbour with the first system (what I find OK for my kids is my business), I would probably arrive at the same conclusion with the second (either I see gore - as defined out-of-band, either I don't). Anyway, that's the first issue, and the effort required to come up with a standard rating system in a given field is proportional to the difficulty of attaining objectiveness in the ratings. Conversely, without an objective rating system, we won't go very far there. The second point is deployment: say we have an objective rating system, how to we go about having people using it on their pages ? That means a syntax to encode it (PICS is possible, RDF too), promotion, tools to produce it, tools to filter on it, etc. I don't want to paint a dark picture here, but I've been on this path before with deployment of PICS and it's all but an easy path.Received on Tuesday, 22 June 1999 12:20:53 UTC

Sections of the historic wall have fallen before leading residents and councilmen to seek financial help for repair from English Heritage and the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF).

Macworld's Lex Friedman has posted a revew of his iOS 6 gripes, and Maps isn't among them, but rather he focuses on grievances common to those of us who try to use iOS devices as productivity platforms, contendng that Apple now needs to focus not just on shiny new features, but on improving some of the system's core foundational elements.
Particularly in need of improvement is text selection, noting that you tap, you hold, you use the magnification loupe, andalmost inevitably you have to futz around.
He's too kind. Text selection in the iOS is lame, horrid, and hair-tearingly frustrating for anyone partial to the positive precision and stability of mouse or trackpad-driven cursor navigation and selection. It is probably the worst aspect of using the iOS for production work, making simple tasks take many times longer than they would on the Mac.
Copying and pasting, via tedious contextual popover menus with no keyboard shortcuts constantly slow workflow down.
Then there's the iOS home screen that's crippled and cumbersome compared with, say, Windows Phone's searchable, alphabetical list of all your apps, or even the Android home screen.
Friedman notes that organizing apps on iOS is painful, whether you try to do it on your device or from iTunes on your Mac, while Windows Phone uses a single, vertically-scrolling screen for organization.
He also observes that sharing data and documents between apps in iOS stinks since apps can't directly share documents with other apps in iOS, which is unintuitive, clunky, and frustrating, which of course brings us to Apple's stubborn and perverse refusal to give the iOS a user-accessible file system, making it necessary to make do with a third-party workaround like Dropbox.
Then there's multitasking, which your editor regards as one of the primary raisons d'etre for using computers. And iOS doesn't support it in any substantive sense. Dogged adherence to a full screen app motif makes functional multitasking impossible, and I agree with Friedman that a Mission-Control-inspired interface, showing screens from your recently opened apps, would be an improvement.
As Friedman observes, as we iOS users continue to encounter competitors' operating systems in the wild – with their occasionally superior features – dont be surprised if you find your eye starting to wander in their direction.

Ponte Restaurant/Pre-Club Istanbul Reviews
29 reviews
Excellent for private party! Dec 31, 2013
We have been to this restaurant for our New Year Eve celebration with a group of 40 people. We were booking in advance the space for us. The venue is very nice, it is on the 6th floor with the terrace on the 7th floor that you can go up to see the view of Istanbul by night and look at the beautiful lighting from every house/residents.
Inside the restaurant, it divided into the bar area where there is live music and dj playing and the most funniest and talent bartender! and another part is the normal dinning table along the window. between bar and sit down table, there is a floor for Tango. I would love to go back one day to dance but first I need to learn how to Tango and need a partner of course! Hahaha
Also I have to admire the view from the ladies, it is spectacular view! The toilet are clean and well design.
Finally, most of the photos I didn't take it myself but I been there the same time that the photo was taken. Thank to Johnpro (Giannis) who is kind enough to share these photos of the restaurant with us.

This article is by Frances Frei and Anne Morriss, the authors of Uncommon Service: How to Win by Putting Customers at the Core of Your Business, published by Harvard Business Review Press.
Service excellence can be a slippery concept. We know it when we see it, and when we see it, we're usually better off. But what exactly is great service?
In our work with service companies, we use a very specific definition: Excellence is being great at the things your customers value most. If you're great at something that few of your customers care much about—see Saturday delivery from the U.S. Post Office—it doesn't count. In fact, it's counterproductive.
Because here's the problem: Your capital and energy are limited resources, so to afford to excel at the things that matter most, you have to under-invest somewhere else. Our advice is simply to underperform rationally, in the areas your customers value least.
Take WalMart. WalMart customers want the lowest possible prices on the things they use every day. And WalMart delivers, with reliably rock-bottom pricing and fantastic product variety. To afford it, the company under-delivers on other parts of the retail experience, such as sales support and ambience. You won't find an army of helpful employees at your average WalMart, and its decor isn't likely to give you ideas for your home renovation. Yet WalMart customers are delighted to make these tradeoffs.
This is the pattern among service leaders in every industry we've studied. It turns out that winning service companies aren't great at everything. They're bad at some things, but the pattern isn't haphazard. It's mapped tightly to their customers' priorities.
How do you pull this off in your own business? The key is to choose your weaknesses carefully. Your goal is strategically bad service, bad service your customers will tolerate, even wear as a badge of honor, as long as they get what they want most in return. Many IKEA customers are proud of the fact that they have to assemble their own stylish, affordable furniture.
Here are the essential questions to ask yourself:
What do my customers value most? Imagine you have a few of your best customers in front of you. What do they care about? Which parts of the service experience are important to them (low prices, quick response time, etc.)? Now list those service attributes in order of importance, from their perspective. To be sure you're right, test the list with real, live customers. We guarantee you that some part of that conversation will surprise you, and the interaction itself will build trust. A market research firm can also help you.

Pros: strong, truly cloth-like, great for sensitive skin
Cons: a bit more expensive with fewer to a box than most wipes
My son had no diaper rash trouble, so I figured I had great techniques for preventing it. I now have a 4-week old and have been fighting diaper rash pretty much since she was born. I have tried different creams, different diapers, letting her be naked for days on end, but I have come to the conclusion that it is the "natural, alcohol-free" wipes I have used that are typically sold in the stores.
I ran out of the usual brand I use, and opened a box of 7th generation wipes that I received as a gift. At first, I thought, "this wipe is so thin and soft, it has little integrity". I was wrong! They are very strong, and almost cloth-like. Since they are thin and super-soft, they don't aggravate already-aggravated skin. My daughter didn't flinch or cry out, even as I used the wipes (with the same force as my usual brand) on her angry red skin. They are warmer than my usual brand, too. With three days of using these 7th gen. wipes, her little bottom totally cleared up and stayed that way!!!
I then tried to use my usual wipes for a day, and her bottom started to get red again. I switched back immediately and things are fine now. She must have sensitive skin and I think the 7th generation wipes are fantastic for her!
They are a little bit more expensive, even in bulk, but if it can keep her comfortable and prevent diaper rash, it's worth it!

DeFranks: Irish win sends a message (Nov. 30)
Matthew DeFranks | Friday, November 30, 2012
During pregame warm-ups, No. 8 Kentucky practiced alley-oops. They had high-bouncing H-O-R-S-E passes to slam and they had lobs above the rim. They pounded them home emphatically before getting emphatically pounded by the home team – a team no one had seen before.
Notre Dame, in its first marquee contest of the season, took down the young defending champions 64-50, showing both Notre Dame fans and the nation who they really are. The Irish are a tough, savvy group of veterans. They are streaky 3-point shooters. They are masters of team defense. They are rugged rebounders.
And they are just getting started.
The Irish, who came into the season ranked No. 22 after returning all five starters from a 22-win team, had not performed like that all season. They had let inferior teams hang around before blowing them out. They had lost to St. Joseph's on the biggest stage they had. And they had not faced a team like the Wildcats.
But that all changed Thursday night when the Irish built a 20-point lead on a top-10 team.
"This is the team we thought we were and this is the team we know we can be," Irish senior forward Jack Cooley said. "We're going to be this team going into the Big East. It was good to see it for everyone to know that this is who we're going to be and they have to come in prepared for this type of team."
Notre Dame did not just win this game – they dominated. They led for 30 of the 40 minutes in the game and suffocated the potent and talented Wildcats.
Each and every year, Kentucky and coach John Calipari rent first-round talent, trot them around the nation as show ponies and ride them to Final Four appearances. But this was not March. This was November, when freshmen still act like freshmen and inexperience on the road really shows.
But should this game really have been a surprise? Yes, the Irish had not performed at this level all season, it was Kentucky and it was big, bad Calipari. But, it was a home game in November (Notre Dame has now won 49 straight) and it was against a top-10 foe (the Irish are 4-0 in their last four meetings with such teams).
Irish coach Mike Brey always seems to get his squad up for big games. Just look at Notre Dame's win over Syracuse in January, when they were a lowly Big East team without its best player welcoming in the top-ranked team in the country. You know what happened next.
After the game, Brey and the players did not act any differently. Their attitudes seemed unfazed by the big win and their egos seemed in check. They knew this team had to show up at some point, they expected it to.
So, no, it really should not come as a surprise the Irish won. But the way they won was shocking.
They won without any points from Pat Connaghton and with only 13 assists. But they relied on their defense, their home crowd and their experience to perform the way everyone, including the team, expected them to.
Notre Dame sent a message during Thursday night's win: this is who we are, Big East, get ready. And they also sent one to opposing teams – do not practice alley-oops on our rims.

Seven P.E.I. municipalities have signed a resolution against oil and gas exploration in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
A group called the Save our Seas and Shores Coalition sent template resolutions to the province's approximately 75 municipalities. It called for either a moratorium until a review or public consultation is carried out, or a moratorium leading to a ban.
Two municipalities backed the ban option.
Ellie Reddin is chairwoman of the coalition's P.E.I. chapter.
"The municipal resolutions are part of a whole package of developments that have been occurring, trying to encourage all the people with interests in the gulf to try and work together to protect the gulf," Reddin said.
She hopes more municipalities sign the resolution and take the issue to Premier Robert Ghiz.
Those that have signed it are:
- Victoria-by-the-Sea (moratorium)
- North Rustico (permanent ban)
- Cavendish (moratorium)
- Miltonvale Park (moratorium)
- Murray Harbour (moratorium)
- Murray River (both options)
- Breadalbane (moratorium)
In April, the coalition tabled a petition with more than 1,200 signatures in the Legislature. It says a moratorium is necessary to protect the gulf's ecosystem.
The group describes itself as a "coalition of fishing organizations, environmental and tourism groups, coastal landowners, First Nations organizations and individuals."

not fair to me if she wanted to engage in intimate affairs with other people if it was just a gameVisitor's Question from a 16-20 year old Male
My girlfriend says im too jealous/sensitive - Now, I agree that men can be jealous at times, but this I think might cross the line. I just got off the phone with her, and she somehow enstilled me with guilt, because i say its not fair to my heart if she wanted to engage in intimate affairs with other people if it was just a game, or like a truth or dare situation ("just as long as it doesnt MEAN ANYTHING?") im not sure if shes right about this or not, but to me - it would feel like someone stabbed me in the heart if i witnessed something like that. She says, however that i should really look at it as a good thing - and that it should be looked at as a turn on, rather than her committing some sort of act of defiance. Out of shock, i asked her if she really wanted to do something like this and she says no... and i know that we're right together, and i wana marry her and everything - we've not had one fight and we usually see eye to eye. am i wrong? is she wrong for testing me like this, and not getting the answer she wanted? i tried flipping the situation visa versa, but she said she wouldnt care, just as long as i didnt love the person (ofcoarse i dont really want to, i was just trying to show her how much it is supposed to hurt) she says its a guy thing too, that guys are too protective, and that i am particularly too sensitive. she says she will never do any of this stuff but, you guys agree with me right? im sorry i just needed to talk to someone about this cuz it feels like my heart's been wasted. isnt intimacy supposed to be private and between two lovers only?? why do i feel this way? am i right?
RomanceClass.com Advice
It's a question of taste.
Most people would agree with you, but others would agree with her. She is definitely the "kinkier" of you two. She gets turned on thinking about unusual sexual situations.
Think it over and then tell her that you are not ready to engage in that kind of sexual behavior and don't approve of it even hypothetically... which is what she is actually suggesting.
You shouldn't feel wrong about your feelings... they are perfectly normal.
Good luck!

DAMON Albarn once sang about the mind getting dirty the closer you get to 30.
But now the singer is in his mid-forties his biggest hassle is finding someone
to sink a few pints with at the Brits.
Damon reckons there was hardly anyone at this year's ceremony he wanted to
down some ales with.
In fact, Noel Gallagher was the only musician he fancied a good old tear-up
with at the bash — even though 15 years ago Blur and their Britpop rivals
Oasis couldn't bear to be in the same room.
Damon said: "At the Brits he's the only person who's 1) my age and 2) up for
having a drink — apart from Rizzle Kicks.
"I mean, Will.i.am was a miserable old sod. Wearing his own stuff — what is
that all about?
"Never wearing anything other than this quasi-Star Trek, slightly rubbery
bondage kind of stuff.
"Is there never a day when he wears an old T-shirt?"
Only if it's one of Cheryl Cole's.
Aside from an inability to hold their booze or pick decent clobber, the Blur
frontman isn't too impressed with the music a lot of pop stars make these
days either.
Appearing on my XFM show to promote the new Blur 21 box set — which is,
incidentally, the best big blue box since the TARDIS — he said: "If I was to
have a criticism about the current state of music, it would be that people
care too much about success. The music becomes so conservative because the
avenues to express yourself have become so sidelined.
"So to break through, people feel they have to be very straight- forward. It's
a shame, because you didn't used to have to do that."
Still, Damon won't have time to get wound up listening to the radio this week
because Blur will be busy preparing for the Games' Closing Ceremony gig in
London's Hyde Park next Sunday.
Fresh from a series of amazing intimate shows last week, they will top a bill
that includes New Order and The Specials. But he is pretty sure it's the
last we will hear from Blur for a while.
He said: "Hyde Park is definitely our last gig in this country this year and
probably for a long time.
"But that doesn't mean it's the end of Blur. If someone wanted us to do an
album for a film I'd definitely be interested in something like that. So
that's the offer."
Tune in to Smart On Sunday 12-3pm to hear more from the interview.

I would love share my blog called "Open Letter to Smriti Irani" for publication. The text of the blog is below:
Dear Smriti Irani,
I may disagree, disprove, vehemently and ruthlessly condemn you for your policies, yes, I did question the government's decision to give you the position of a HRD Minister, I wondered shouldn't it be reserved for more erudite, somebody with more degrees definitely!
And today you have put many educated women with a string of degrees to shame! What a retort not only to that Minister in Bihar but also from Priyanka Chaturvedi to Barkha Dutt of NDTV. It was the first time I heard the usually confident Ms. Dutt fumble and it did bring a broad grin to my face.
Without getting into the right or wrong of what you said, the fact that you said was enough for me.
How many women today dare to speak their minds? Rather I should re-phrase it to how many people? How many of us just sit back, watch quietly, enjoy and entertain ourselves when others get humiliated, are called names for what they stand for, bullied cruelly for their gender or points of view, on social media or otherwise. We refuse to shed our niceties and courtesies, let go of our comfort zones, lest we sound offensive and controversial often forgetting that tomorrow they could be on the other side, the butt of insults and jokes and then they would be left alone to face the music.
You are punished time and again for not having a degree or not having enough of them. Yet you continued to ignore and focus on what you were hired to do, which is your day to day work as a HRD Minister, and the results are evident as you pointed out in your face book post today! People who admonish you should remember that one of finest economists in India unfortunately failed to deliver as a leader and Prime Minister what you and Modi have done sans decorative qualifications and that fine English "accent".
Today after many years, wearing my badges and diplomas in a faraway Seattle, doing a decent job in one of the top companies in the world, I feel gratified when the Prime Minister of my nation gets multiple standing ovations and when a prominent woman minister shows the grit to counter the pseudo seculars and intellectuals on mainstream television with sheer wit and facts.
I am an outspoken girl, I know how it feels when they tell you it's "unwomanly" to answer back, to argue, to have strong opinions, when they accuse of stirring the hornet's nest, creating controversies when all you are doing is just defending yourself from provocative attacks on your points of view and ideologies which you hold close, or many a times just speaking up for the right. I hear you Ms. Irani, when they say that the "epitome of womanhood" is to renunciation of all faculties to think, reason, decipher and judge.
It is not the words used that hurt as much but it is what is implied, what is hidden in between those lines, their misogyny, their bigotry, their notions of superiority, their intolerance, their ignorance that stings.
Sometimes it is important to give back to your detractors, to tell them that they have been unfair.
Recently Kangana Ranaut, another strong woman remarked in one of her television interviews that "success is the best revenge". Yes, actions speak the loudest but words are also powerful lest they do not mistake your silence as consent, your humility as stupidity, your politeness as meekness, and they end up feeling emboldened rather ashamed, assuming that if they can get away this time, they can get away all the time. These are the same people who think interpret a woman's "No" as "Yes", her diffidence and shyness as assent, her modesty as a pretense. So here's to you Ms. Irani and in your words "those girls walking with their heads down, look up and speak up; those women cracking the whip in their offices and asking their counterparts to finish the work assigned in the time frame prescribed, lead on…"

Bowling Green's state senator, Republican Mike Wilson, told the Daily News on Friday he's still not optimistic that expanded gambling will become reality in Kentucky. Wilson's comments came after Gov. Steve Beshear said Thursday that he's ready to raise the issue again in the General Assembly. Expanded gambling failed to move past the state Senate during Beshear's first term.
Kentucky's Cabinet for Health and Family Services has released its annual report on child abuse fatalities, which show fewer fatalities this year when compared to previous years' data. But it may be difficult for lawmakers to use this information in comparison, said Terry Brooks is executive director of Kentucky Youth Advocates.
An Ohio contractor has been awarded a $1.3 million contract to finish painting downtown Frankfort's Singing Bridge, according to the state Transportation Cabinet. The bridge, which dates back to the 1890s, crosses the Kentucky River. The bridge has a metal mesh floor which causes tires on vehicles to make a sing-song noise - hence the name Singing Bridge.
The county office of constable is under review in Frankfort. It's not the first time an effort has been made to do away with constables or their duties. The office of constable was established in the 1850 constitution. Today there are more than 500 constables in magisterial districts across the state. The primary push to legislatively strip away their duties comes from the Kentucky Association of Counties.
The Energy and Environment Cabinet is accepting grant proposals for projects that promote the use of recycled waste tires for athletic fields, playgrounds and other crumb-rubber applications. The cabinet will also consider funding research and development proposals for experimental practices or technologies that further the statutory purposes of the waste tire program - to protect human health, safety and the environment - or that will help develop a market for Kentucky waste tires. About $300,000 is available this grant cycle.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has reiterated GOP lawmakers' support for extending the payroll tax cut for another year, but Kentucky's senior Senator says his party will oppose any hikes on wealthier Americans.
State officials have 10 days to produce 90 internal reviews of social workers' files on children who have been killed or nearly killed as a result of abuse and neglect, a judge ordered Wednesday. Attorneys for the Cabinet for Health and Family Services told Franklin Circuit Judge Phillip Shepherd on Wednesday that they were hiring temporary staff to redact more than 180 case files involving children who died or nearly died of abuse and neglect. Once redacted, those records will be made available, said Christina Heavrin, general counsel for the cabinet, which oversees child protection.
Most state agencies will cut spending by an additional 2 percent as part of Gov. Steve Beshear's plan to cover a $190 million hole in the current budget. The plan doesn't include employee furloughs, but programs may opt to lay off workers, state Budget Director Mary Lassiter told the joint Appropriations and Revenue Committee Tuesday. "Every agency will have to evaluate its capacity to deal with these additional cuts," Lassiter said.
The Nov. 8 election may have done more than dash Senate President David Williams' hopes for the Governor's Mansion, according to state Sen. Dorsey Ridley, it may have also unclogged the major obstacle to a full Senate vote on expanded gaming in Kentucky. Past legislative sessions have seen expanded gaming proposals bottled up by Williams' opposition, but his defeat by Gov. Steve Beshear has diminished his power, Ridley told Henderson Lions Club on Tuesday.
Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear is ordering most state agencies to cut their budgets by two percent for the current fiscal year, but that will not be enough to close a $190 million budget shortfall. The decision was announced by State Budget Director Mary Lassiter at a joint budget committee meeting Tuesday. The plan will not include furloughs for state employees as the governor previously ordered, but it could mean agencies deciding to laying off workers.
After multiple lawsuits and key lawmakers' repeated calls for more transparency, Gov. Steve Beshear announced Tuesday that he will release state records of children who have been killed or nearly killed as a result of abuse or neglect. The Lexington Herald-Leader and the Louisville Courier-Journal had sued the state over the records of children who died while under supervision of the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, which oversees child protection. In another case, the Todd County Standard sued the cabinet over the records involving Amy Dye, a 9-year-old girl who was beaten to death in February by her adoptive brother.
In a tough economy, Kentucky will avoid even the minimal cost of hauling in an official Christmas tree, opting instead to decorate an evergreen growing on the Capitol's front lawn. Finance Cabinet spokeswoman Cindy Landham said Monday that Gov. Steve Beshear's administration opted not to follow the traditional route of issuing a public request for a donated tree that state workers typically load aboard a truck and haul to Frankfort. The move is drawing kudos from environmentalists, including leaders of the forest protection group Heartwood that has a strong contingent in Kentucky.
A new bill that has been pre-filed in the Kentucky legislature for next year would block convicted methamphetamine offenders from buying key meth ingredients without a prescription, but not everyone is convinced the proposed law would be effective.
Kentucky lawmakers will again take up the issue of meth production and pseudoephedrine. The legislature has considered making cold and allergy medication that contains pseudoephedrine prescription-only, but that proposal failed. "We had U.S. Congressman Hal Rogers come and testify about why it should be made prescriptive. [He] certainly made a good argument. However I was not persuaded at that point that that was the solution," says Rep. Brent Yonts (D-Greenville).
With all indications that the congressional supercommittee tasked with cutting $1.2 trillion in budget savings by Wednesday is deadlocked, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul introduced an alternative plan late last week. The bipartisan 12-member committee, appointed by party leaders, has been in discussion for two months, but as of early today all signs pointed to the group being headed for a failure to reach a compromise.
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Bowling Green, is calling for a formal end to U.S. involvement in the war in Iraq. Last week, Paul introduced an amendment to the Department of Defense authorization bill to formally end the war in Iraq. At an appearance in Bowling Green on Friday, Paul said he hopes the Senate votes on the amendment shortly after Thanksgiving. He said he's already received some bipartisan support on the amendment.
Gov. Steve Beshear has made the following appointment to Kentucky boards and commissions:Beshear has appointed Josh Hopkins to the Kentucky Film Commission to serve for a term expiring Sept. 30, 2015. Josh Hopkins, of Sherman Oaks, Calif., is an actor. The appointment replaces Carol K. Butler, whose term has expired.
A Franklin County court will hear a coal company's third appeal in a case against the state Energy and Environment Cabinet tomorrow. The contention is over mining near Wilson Creek in Floyd County. Several years ago, residents living on Wilson Creek petitioned the state to declare the area unsuitable for mining. That petition was rejected, but the Energy and Environment cabinet placed certain restrictions on mining in the area—like any mining would have to restore the land to its approximate original contour, instead of seeking a variance, and reclamation would have to be done with native tree species.
Two Franklin County men have been indicted for scamming an elderly woman for work on her house, a prosecutor said. Joseph Lewis, 28, and Antone Miller, 42, were charged after they exploited Martha Guthrie, of Frankfort, by requesting around $4,000 for work on her house in late September, said Commonwealth's Attorney Larry Cleveland.
On Dec. 13, Gov. Steve Beshear will become only the second Kentucky governor to be sworn in to a second consecutive term. To oversee the state's 59th inaugural celebration, the governor Wednesday named eight inauguration committee co-chairs.
Kentucky lawmakers will draft legislation that could make the petition process in the state more consistent and easier. The issues that surrounded the petition submitted by the Home Builders Association of Northern Kentucky and the Northern Kentucky Tea Party in Kenton County in August have led the state Legislature to look at how referenda work in Kentucky.
The state Monday announced that about $2.1 million in grant funding has been awarded by the Kentucky Pride Fund for cleanup of 171 illegal dumps in 29 counties. "Illegal dumping is a major problem that raises significant concerns with regard to safety, property values and quality of life in our communities," Gov. Steve Beshear said in a press release. "It is a major economic burden on local governments, which are typically responsible for cleaning up dump sites."
Ashley Stillwell and Josh Walkup hope that no one else has to endure the pain brought on by their experiences with herbal potpourri. Walkup, 26, of Richardsville, and Stillwell, 18, will address the Bowling Green City Commission at 4 p.m. Dec. 6 during a work session to discuss banning the sale of products marketed as herbal incense or potpourri that are in fact being used as cheap, legal alternatives to marijuana.
The fast approaching 2012 Kentucky General Assembly session will likely include items leftover from the just completed governor's race. Both gubernatorial candidates agreed on the need for tax reform, but disagreed on the timing. Governor Beshear wants to wait until the economy improves, but, Senate President David William proposed immediate action. It's not a new topic. For years, Fayette County lawmaker Bill Farmer has urged lawmakers to consider tax reforms.
Governor Steve Beshear today set a special election date to fill a vacant legislative seat in the 82nd House district. Rep. Dewayne Bunch resigned his office last month in order to focus on his recovery from a head injury earlier this year.
The Kentucky Court of Appeals will convene Monday, Nov. 14, in Frankfort to hear arguments about a Shelby County Circuit Court judgment that upheld deferment of a woman's parole eligibility for 20 years. Proceedings are open to the public and will take place at 9:45 a.m. EST in the Court of Appeals Courtroom at 360 Democrat Drive.
After more than two decades in Frankfort, state Sen. Tim Shaughnessy, D-Louisville, announced Thursday that he will not seek re-election to the Kentucky Senate in 2012. Shaughnessy did not indicate why he was retiring, but thanked constituents for allowing him to be a public servant since 1988. "I am grateful to the voters of my community for the honor and privilege of serving in the state Senate," he said in a statement.
After Tuesday's convincing win, local state lawmakers expect Gov. Steve Beshear to again push for expanding gambling and explore modernizing the state's tax structure during his second term. Beshear, a Democrat, unofficially beat Republican challenger David Williams by 20 points Tuesday, garnering 464,635 votes to Williams' 295,434. Independent candidate Gatewood Galbraith got 74,923 votes, or 9 percent. Statewide, 28 percent of registered voters went to the polls.
The state on Wednesday announced $4.1 million in State Homeland Security Grants for 125 projects across Kentucky. The funding supports 911 programs, mobile computers and radios, bomb detection devices and first-responder training.

The AP Pollster Logic: Flawed Thinking Giving Less Deserving Teams AdvantageOctober 19, 2008
According to the AP Poll, if the season was over today and the No. 1 and No. 2 team advanced to the BCS championship game, it would be No. 1 Texas vs No. 2 Alabama.
Penn St would get the shaft while an overrated Alabama team would get blasted by a dominant Texas team. Oklahoma State and Texas Tech would get less credit at 7-0 than the one-loss Oklahoma, Florida, and USC teams. The Ohio State Buckeyes would get considered for a BCS bowl over LSU, though OSU was embarrassed by USC on the road by 32 points while LSU also was embarrassed by Florida on the road by 30 points.
Can someone please explain why the AP's top 10 is as follows?:
1. Texas
2. Alabama
3. Penn St
4. Oklahoma
5. Florida
7. Oklahoma St.
8. Texas Tech
9. Georgia
10. Ohio St.
NOTE: LSU is ranked 11th.
Why is Alabama ranked ahead of Penn State? 'Bama almost lost against Kentucky and Ole Miss while Penn State has won convincingly each week. Why is USC ranked ahead of two teams that are 7-0? After all, USC did get beat by Oregon State, which is worse than getting beat by Florida or Texas.
The fact that USC did beat Ohio State should be factored in, but do you honestly think Ohio State is better than LSU? A more accurate top 10 would be as follows:
1. Texas
2. Penn St.
3. Alabama
4. Oklahoma St.
5. Texas Tech
6. Florida
7. Oklahoma
9. Georgia
Either way, the top 10 does not mean much at this point. Next week's matchups will completely shake things up:
Penn St. vs. Ohio St.
Texas vs Oklahoma St.
LSU vs Georgia
If Penn State beat OSU and Texas beats Oklahoma State, both losing teams will not be a factor; this also applies to the team who loses in Baton Rouge on Saturday Night.
So will the AP polls leave Alabama at No. 2 next week if Penn State beats Ohio State? If Oklahoma State beats Texas, will it be ranked No. 1? If LSU beats Georgia, will the Tigers be ranked No. 4?
The game that could be just as interesting is the USC vs. Arizona matchup. If 5-2 Arizona beats USC, they might have a shot to squeeze into the Rose Bowl.

Stainless Steel Sinks provides a agitating attending to a abreast kitchen

Industrial counters are usually bogus from 12 or 14 barometer animate but home use usually uses 16 gauge. You can accept stainless counters congenital to any actualization or dimension. You should not accept joints soldered.
Stainless can bite if it is not appropriately cared for. Never use acrid online writing or online writing that accept achromatize in them and don't leave acerb online writing on the counter. To apple-pie use balmy water, bathe thoroughly, and dry.

Jim in Halifax in 1940
My dad often spoke of Commander Stubbs. He thought the world of him.
I found that was one way to get some information out of him, just ask who was the captain on the Athabaskan and my dad would say what a great man he was.
He said there was a lot of trouble aboard the ship until Commander Stubbs took command.
Feel free to use any pictures I send especialy for your story on Commander Stubbs.
I know my dad would feel honored to have his picture in a story about that great man.

The Egyptian government has begun proceedings to cancel the existing emergency regulations which have been in effect for 30 years.
The move is part of promises made by the government to demonstrators after the ouster of former President Hosni Mubarak. A statement by the Egyptian government said that the process will end before the parliamentary elections scheduled for November.

This might be the first Memorial Day Parade ever planned on the fly through Facebook.
In a really interesting development, residents are taking over grassroots planning of the longtime Saratoga Springs Memorial Parade after veterans groups canceled it last week due to lack of money and participation.
The holiday honors those who lost their lives in the service of the country. Basically, people are trying to turn a pretty bad situation into something really good.
"We are going to need approximately $1,500 asap," Paul Brisson wrote recently on the Facebook group page he created. That's money for a permit application fee, insurance and more for the event.
Brisson, 33, grew up in the city and resides in Ballston Spa. Most of his male relatives served in the military. On Monday, he submitted a permit to hold a Memorial Day Parade along Broadway starting at 10 a.m. Monday.
"What are our values," Brisson recalled asking himself when he heard there would be no parade. "We forget that Memorial Day is the cause of the Fourth of July."
The city's Memorial Day parade was traditionally planned and funded through veterans groups in the city, but Jim Coyne, a spokesman for the group, said in an interview that they weren't able to secure a number of bands, "and financially it wasn't worth doing."
"One of the other challenges we face is veterans are getting older, and many can't march," Coyne said. "It was a hard decision to make, and I've had plenty of comments. We're going to try again next year."

Podcast: The Russian Fronts

Joining me are Michael Weiss, senior editor at the Daily Beast and co-author of bestselling book ISIS: Inside The Army Of Terror; Kadri Liik, a senior fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations; and Andreas Umland, a senior research fellow at the Institute for Euro-Atlantic Cooperation in Kyiv.

All busy moms (and dads) need checklists. October marks the beginning of ski season in Colorado, as Loveland and Arapahoe Basin duel it out to see who will make the most snow and get their lifts open first. Sometimes, mother nature helps a lot and other times, being fickle and unpredictable, she doesn't. But fickle is the nature of October: freezing temps, followed by golden Indian summer days, followed by gray rain and snow, maybe a few more golden days, and of course, Halloween.
Here is my October "to-do" list. Don't worry, I won't share all of it with you, but you can count on some skiing-related posts as I work through my chores. And, maybe it will remind you of a few things that you want to do too.
o Plan ahead and make a crazy Halloween costume. Let your imagine run wild, grab your glue gun or sewing machine and go for it! In past years, my sons and I have produced a gorilla, a centaur, two bats and a yeti. All I know this year, is that the 11 year-old has an "idea" and it is "furry." (Guess who was the gorilla last year and a yeti the year before?)
o Enjoy the surprising Indian Summer weather. Although we know these days will come every year, the warm weather after the first freezes still astound us with their beauty. These days are like gold.
o Gather up any remaining ski necessities. Clean out the ski bags, reload to make sure everything fits and eagerly wait for the lifts to open!
o Eat bratwurst, sauerkraut and strudel. Drink beer and apfelschorle (apple juice with sparkling water — a treat for kids and adults — click for a recipe) and celebrate Oktoberfest! Many ski resorts (for example Snowbird, UT, Attitash, NH and Sugar Mountain, NC) have big Oktoberfest celebrations planned. Check your resort's website, and head out to enjoy the last of the fall colors and do the chicken dance.
o Enjoy the end of the fall sports seasons, such as soccer, football and volleyball. Continue trying to be good sports parents, even if the season wasn't as successful as it could have been. The kids are still having fun.
o Rake leaves, clean out the garden, pick up the outside dog toys, mow the grass one more time and pray for snow.
o Sign the kids up for recreational ski racing. We are not racing this year, but lots of friends are. If your kids are involved in USSA, get in shape with them during dryland training. (This one is for the rest of you. We're "retired.")
o Carve pumpkins. Get a head size one, put a beanie and ski goggles on it. Is it a self-portrait or maybe one of the family?
o Drink hot chocolate and eat steel-cut oatmeal with dried fruit on the first snowy morning.
o Put away the summer shorts and start wearing sweaters. It feels good to be cozy. Enjoy!

A nation was conquered and the conquerers took control and put themselves in all positions of authority. One major problem, the new rulers and the now peasant/ruled class speak entirely different languages.
In a small farming community, the only way to cross a river is to basically pole vault across. A small section of river has a small raft on a string to pull items across but for a person to cross they must use one of the many provided poles. Might be interesting seeing what the players do when they come across it. Villagers do it all the time so are skilled and can do it with ease.
A low lying area will flood after rains causing many people to be stranded and many roads are covered with water and unuseable.
Religious city. Hundreds of vendors selling small statues which sole value is as a donation to one of the many gods that are worshipped.
Thieve's House or thier main front: All the floors are designed to squeak when stepped upon or to sag or bend sending a small shake along the beam, somewhat like a spiders web, to alert those inside.
A revolt or attack happens against a strong city/kingdom. All the losers of the battle that can be captured are brutally crucified along the roads that enter the kingdom to show their strength and as a demonstration of what happens to their enemies.
Small village tavern specialty of the house is fresh cow blood mixed with milk. For each order they go out back and actually draw blood from a cow by puncturing a vein in it's neck. Fresh blood brought to the table where they poor milk into the glass of blood in front of the customer so they know how much blood they are getting.
In the middle of a desert in an oasis is a single prospering oak tree. Near the tree is a large pool of water. Drinking from the water is said to give you eternal life but really only extends your life for as long as you continue drinking from it. Those that have found it and left, have never found it again. Some search for it still.
The devil's wind. Explains why people become crazy. They are caught up in this wind which steals their sanity which in turn feeds the wind. The wind is a leftover from when the air elementals banded together in a mass army at one point to attack the True Gods. The wind is leftover of their attack route and on the anniversary of the battle the wind sweeps through causing the madness.
A basin type hole in the middle of the plains. Once every so many years the rains come very hard and flood this place. Maybe that is where the tribes congregate for their tribal meetings.
A large river that is continuously covered in a thick layer of fog. There will be either a rope ferry to get across or possibly a boat that is rowed across by worshippers of the water elementals. It is very thick fog to the point where it even muffles voices even at close range and visibility even beyond a foot is almost impossible.
The Nomin gypsies have a fiddling competition every year, known as the Danse de Velose. Beaters hit out the rhythm on taut drums and the competitors start to play, slowly at first. Youngsters can compete, but are soon pulled away by worried mothers, before the competition becomes too dangerous. After two hours the haunting tune has become dazzlingly fast. You can resign at any time, but the moment you make a mistake you receive an arrow through the neck. Strings may snap, but the players must play on. The whole affair never lasts much longer than three hours, and the last fiddler playing is crowned king of the gypsies.

It's an opportunity for us to demonstrate to Austin residents just how special we feel Travisso will be.
Austin, Texas (PRWEB) June 04, 2014
The 2,100-acre master-planned community Travisso in Leander is making its stunning debut with a full month's worth of Italian-themed events, new homes from five respected builders and the "Biggest Tiramisu in Texas."
The celebration, Festivo Travisso, will take place over three weekends in June, pausing only for Father's Day on June 15. Themed events will be held each weekend, as a different facet of Italian culture is celebrated beginning with Italian art and style on June 8, Italian music on June 22 and Italian cuisine (including the "Biggest Tiramisu in Texas") on June 29.
Among the attractions will be renowned Austin artist Kerry Awn, local musicians Robert Schneider Sr., Oli Steck and Danny Levin; Italian sports cars from Maserati of Austin as well as local eateries including Coolhaus Austin.
The "Biggest Tiramisu in Texas" will be the centerpiece attraction, with more than 60 pounds of sponge cake, 140 quarts of Tiramisu filling, five pounds of cocoa and 40 man hours going into its creation.
"It's an opportunity for us to demonstrate to Austin residents just how special we feel Travisso will be," said Tim Towell, division president of Taylor Morrison's Austin division, which is developing the community in partnership with Toll Brothers.
In addition to Taylor Morrison and Toll Brothers, Travisso will feature the homes of Drees Custom Homes, Highland Homes and Grand Haven Homes. All five builders will grand open their model home collections during Festivo Travisso.
When finished, Travisso will include more than 2,900 home sites of various sizes marketed towards a wide array of buyers, more than 350 acres of open space, a trail system, pool and clubhouse and potential Leander schools. Home prices will range from the high $200,000s to the $800,000s.
"Travisso will offer Austin residents an opportunity to live in a premiere destination community and a chance to experience master-planned living of the highest quality," said Brandon Cooper, assistant vice president for Toll Brothers' Austin division.
Situated in Texas Hill Country west of Austin and just north of Lake Travis, Travisso home buyers will find plenty of shopping and entertainment near the community, with Lakeline Mall, Round Rock Premium Outlets and 1890 Ranch Shopping Center all nearby. The 6,800-seat Cedar Park Event Center is a short drive from Travisso, as is the acclaimed Crystal Falls Golf Club.
In addition, Cedar Park Regional Medical Center is less than 10 miles from Travisso, with three additional major hospitals within 20 miles of the community.
Employment centers are also close to Travisso, with the largest private employer in Austin, Dell, just minutes away and downtown Austin a convenient trip via Capitol Metro's new commuter rail station in Leander, which connects the community to downtown Austin. Local operations for Apple and Google are also within close proximity.

I agree that the 3pters killed us[@eeeeeebro] but then again if they weren't falling Lebron and Wade would have exerted themselves more.
Respect [@Rose], I just don't think Derrick is that guy and I don't think he has to be for us to build around him. We have to find a way with what we have to work with in Rose which is a lot. It's up to the franchise to recruit for him...his play is enough [at the moment].
[@kshutts1] I think our defense wasn't awesome....Thibbs defensive scheme and our rotation looked about as bad as I've ever seen it. We have a lot of work to do...

Twins infielder Alexi Casilla was claimed off waivers by the Baltimore Orioles, but Minnesota claimed infielder Tommy Field and right-handed pitcher Josh Roenicke off waivers from the Colorado Rockies, the Twins announced Friday, Nov. 2.
The Twins also assigned pitcher Samuel Deduno outright to Class AAA Rochester.
Field, 25, hit .260 in 18 games for the Rockies over the past two seasons. Roenicke, 30, was 4-2 with a 3.25 earned-run average and one save in 63 games last season for Colorado.
Casilla, 28, spent seven seasons with the Twins. He hit .241 with one home run, 30 runs batted in and 21 stolen bases in 2012.
Deduno, 29, was 6-5 with a 4.44 ERA in 15 starts.
Haren, Marmol dealt
A person familiar with the deal said the Los Angeles Angels have agreed to trade pitcher Dan Haren to the Chicago Cubs for closer Carlos Marmol.
The person spoke to the Associated Press on Friday night on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been completed.
Haren, a three-time all-star from 2007-09, is the second starting pitcher traded by the Angels in three days. Los Angeles shipped Ervin Santana to the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday for minor league left-hander Brandon Sisk.
The Angels had until 11 p.m. Friday to exercise Haren's $15.5 million option for next season. He had a $3.5 million buyout. The right-hander was 12-13 with a career-worst 4.33 ERA this season and spent time on the disabled list for the first time.
The Cubs declined to comment.
Ortiz, Boston agree
The Red Sox agreed to terms with designated hitter David Ortiz on a two-year contract worth $26 million that could allow the 2004 World Series star to retire in a Boston uniform.
A baseball official with knowledge of the negotiations said that the sides reached agreement on a deal that, with incentive bonuses, could bring Ortiz as much as $30 million in the 2013 and '14 seasons. The official spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the deal had not been signed.
One of the most popular players in Red Sox history, Ortiz, 36, now has a chance to finish his career in the city where it was rejuvenated after he was waived by the Twins following the 2003 season. Ortiz signed with the Red Sox and became an immediate star, batting .288 with 31 homers and 101 RBIs in his first season.
An eight-time all-star, Ortiz hit a team-record 54 homers in 2006 and was batting .318 with 23 homers and 60 RBIs this season before injuring his right Achilles' tendon and playing in just one game after July 16.
Offer to Hamilton
Texas slugger Josh Hamilton and the New York Yankees' trio of Nick Swisher, Hiroki Kuroda and Rafael Soriano are among nine free agents who have received $13.3 million qualifying offers.
Tampa Bay outfielder B.J. Upton, Atlanta outfielder Michael Bourne, Washington first baseman Adam LaRoche and St. Louis pitcher Kyle Lohse also got the offers Friday.
Players have until Nov. 9 to accept the one-year contracts. If a player turns the offer down and signs elsewhere, his former team would receive an extra selection immediately following the end of the first round of next June's amateur draft.
The Rangers didn't make qualifying offers to all-star catcher Mike Napoli or five other free agents.

Cheyney Sessions
- Artist: Fontaine Cooley
- Genre: Jazz
- Release Date: 12/25/2007
What started as a casual conversation between two old musical friends, grew into the rekindling of their passion for playing music together. Then after a steady diet of once a week one on one meetings for musical experimentation and tea, it morphed into a four piece, cross generational combo of veteran musicians, with countless years of bands, gigs, touring and recording between them. With each member contributing his own style and experience to the project, the result is this self-produced debut CD of original compositions, Cheyney Sessions. These instrumentals are essentially ensemble pieces, with finely crafted interplay between the elements, the sum of which is compelling, upbeat, fresh and unique, yet somewhat difficult to classify. The instrumentation, acoustic guitar, mandolin, bass and drums, might lead one to expect a certain type of music, perhaps country or even bluegrass. But while elements of those genres are evident, there are also liberal doses of jazz, funk, blues and Latin, all of which fuse into a style and sound that is uniquely Fontaine Cooley. Each song is a small journey, and just when it seems the route is identified, an unexpected turn, a surprising detour occurs. From the country tinged "Bus Stories" with it's' salute to the Big Band era at the end, to the funky "It Is What It Isn't If It Isn't What It Is" with a Latin mid section, the trip is worth taking repeatedly. Peter Hayes, guitar, Randy Patterson, mandolin, Terry Bortman, bass and Wyatt Patterson, drums are Fontaine Cooley.

Melbourne Arts and Entertainment Events Add An Event
Get The Led Out
- Date: March 23, 2018
- Time: 8:00pm
Venue: King CenterAddress:3865 N. Wickham Rd.Melbourne, FL 32935
Dubbed by the media as "The American Led Zeppelin," Get The Led Out present a two hour + set each night that spans the mythic career of the legendary British supergroup. With a strong focus on the early years, they also touch on the deeper cuts that were seldom, if ever heard in concert.
The group is achieving strong box office scores in the Mid-Atlantic. Not uncommon are return-visits and sell-outs at a number of the region's most prominent venues and PACs including House of Blues (Atlantic City), Pennsylvania's Sovereign Center and Keswick Theatre, and Oswego New York's "Harborfest" (two years in a row) as well as countless other theaters and national concert venues.
Get The Led Out's approach to their performance of this hallowed catalog is not unlike a classical performance. "Led Zeppelin are sort of the classical composers of the rock era," says lead vocalist Paul Sinclair. "I believe 100 years from now they will be looked at as the Bach or Beethoven of our time. As cliché as it sounds, their music is timeless."
A Get The Led Out concert sort of mimics the "light and shade" that is the embodiment of "The Mighty Zep." Whether it's the passion and fury with which they deliver the blues-soaked, groove-driven rock anthems, or the delicate nature of their intimate, sit-down acoustic set (complete with special guest female vocalist for "The Battle of Evermore"), it's their attention to detail and nuance that makes a Get The Led Out performance a truly awe-inspiring event!

FTSE 250 oil and gas firm Ophir Energy plc (LSE:OPHR) made its sixth gas discovery in Tanzania but said the gas find was lower than what the company hoped it would have.
In a statement released earlier today, the Africa-focussed explorer said Papa-1 well, its sixth well located in Block 3 offshore Tanzania, encountered 89 metres of gas column suggesting around 500 million to two trillion cubic feet of gas (tcf) in place.
The Papa-1 prospect, according to the company's 3rd July 2012 update, has an estimated unrisked mean recoverable resource of 3.1 tcf of gas or about 517 million barrels of oil equivalent.
"While recoverable resources are likely to be lower than pre-drill estimates, this very encouraging discovery is expected to lead to substantial additional resources," Ophir Energy Chief Executive Nick Cooper stated.
Business As Usual
Nonetheless, the latest discovery, along with the fifth one announced in May 2012, will considerably increase the total recoverable resource in offshore Tanzania, reported at seven trillion cubic feet or about 1.167 billion barrels of oil equivalent.
Ophir Energy, which holds 40% interest in the venture and the other 60% controlled by BG, the operator of the JV, said further analyses will be performed to "refine the in place and recoverable resource estimates".
Meanwhile, exploration in Ophir's other assets across Africa are simultaneously taking place, with some 800 billion cubic feet of gas equivalent to 133 million barrels of oil was further discovered at its 80% controlled block in Equatorial Guinea, announced a week ago.
The said well is part of the three-well drilling programme in the said asset as the company is hyped to become a major supplier of LNG.
"Ophir has transformed its resource base with the four discoveries across our assets in the first half of 2012," CEO Cooper stated, adding that two wells are anticipated to yield results by September.
Shares of Ophir Energy slightly recovered but were still down 9.7% to £5.26 a share on the London Stock Exchange at 2:45 PM GMT, after falling 13% in early morning trading, as the market focussed on the shortfall in anticipated gas volumes.
Company Spotlight
Ophir Energy plc is a UK-incorporated holding company of businesses engaged in oil and gas exploration and production, focussing in Africa. The company has 17 projects in eight countries, namely: Senegal, Congo (Brazaville), Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Madagascar, Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic, Somaliland, and Tanzania.

At fault is a defective timing chain and guide, which could create a clattering sound as it essentially chews up the inside of an engine. Instead of repairing the faulty timing chains and guides, a TSB released last month indicates that Kia wants its dealers to entirely replace the engine sub assembly and long block.
Kia is instructing its dealers to inspect for the "abnormal" sound by following a number of specific steps that involve repeatedly and precisely revving the engine to listen for what the automaker describes as a "chattering" noise.
The potentially affected vehicles were built between August 9, 2012 and October 9, 2012, according to the TSB. Affected are both manual and automatic transmission Rios, as well as those with and without the automaker's optional start/stop system.
Kia admits in the TSB that "only a very small number" of Rios will be affected. But to be safe, the automaker has told its dealers to perform the check before delivering any unsold 2013 Rios. Owners with affected Rios will be treated to a rental car while their engine is replaced.
Concerned owners can contact their dealers with Service Action number SA134.
It is unclear whether the a similar TSB will be issued for the 2013 Hyundai Accent and Veloster and the Kia Soul which use versions of the same 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine.
